Chapter 435 The calm before the storm

"Your Majesty." Ge Long stood up and saluted respectfully.

"After the Soul Master Competition, we will begin to officially expand the army. Please specify how much military expenditure is required. I will approve it later. Just go to He Aiqing to collect the money." Emperor Xue Ye stroked his beard and said, haha smiled.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. There are three million troops. No matter how many soul masters there are in the Wuhun Palace, if they dare to attack, they will never come back." Marshal Ge Long patted his chest and put down his bold words.

"Yes. I believe you. However, the Soul Master Competition is coming soon. The empire must pay attention to it and not miss out on talents. Let Wuhun Hall recruit them." Emperor Xue Ye turned his eyes to Xue Qinghe, "Qinghe, regarding the Soul Master Competition I’ll leave everything to you with full authority.”

"My son, I will definitely live up to my father's trust." Xue Qinghe responded respectfully.

Ning Fengzhi was the only one who remained silent throughout the whole process, with a solemn look on his face and a frown on his face. Xue Qinghe saw this scene in his eyes. When the meeting was over, he stopped him and said, "Teacher, what happened to you today?"

"It's nothing." Ning Fengzhi shook his head and said with a wry smile: "It just feels too peaceful."

Xue Qinghe was stunned, "Calm?"

"Yes, calm." Ning Fengzhi glanced around, and when he saw no one around him, his expression suddenly became solemn, and he said seriously: "When I was young, the mainland was still in chaos, and the two empires were constantly rubbing against each other on the border."

"But this situation has gradually disappeared since the Pope of Wuhun Palace defeated Tang Hao in the last sect competition and began to show his prominence."

"Until now, except for the fact that the Haotian Sect was almost wiped out by the Wuhun Palace because of Tang Hao's killing of Qian Xunji, the previous Pope of the Wuhun Palace, the mainland is very peaceful. It's as calm as a pool of stagnant water, and it's so calm that it makes people feel scary."

Xue Qinghe was suddenly startled, "You mean there is a huge conspiracy brewing in Wuhun Hall?"

"This possibility cannot be ruled out. Especially in recent times, I have always felt uneasy and something bad might happen. I feel that after this Soul Master Competition, Wuhun Palace will make big moves. You must be careful." Ning Fengzhi said solemnly.

Xue Qinghe nodded heavily, and then heard Ning Fengzhi say: "How is your recruitment of Shrek going?"

Xue Qinghe's cheeks turned red instantly, "It's okay, Xiaomiao is mine now."

Ning Fengzhi was stunned, Xiao Miao?

He immediately realized and said with a smile: "You are talking about the kid named Chang Gongmiao. His talent is not bad, and he is full of innate soul power. In the future, he will be able to become a titled Douluo. I can recruit him. , it seems that he has made a profit this time. How is his strength now? "

"Xiao Miao is now a Soul Sect, and her soul power has reached level 47." Xue Qinghe turned his head and looked in the direction of Shrek Academy, with a happy smile on his red face.

In the past two years, he had been nourished by Chang Gong Miao. Although it was all in the dark, the feeling had already made him intoxicated.

Ning Fengzhi exclaimed: "For a fifteen-year-old forty-seventh-level soul sect, it is really surprising that he has increased his soul power by twelve levels in two years."

Xue Qinghe smiled and said: "Not only that, the girl named Xiao Wu has also broken through the soul sect. Now her soul power has reached the forty-second level, but she doesn't know that Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, Oscar, etc. who went out to practice with Haotian Douluo, How about Tang San and the others? If they all become soul sects, including your son Ning Tian, ​​then there will be seven soul sects in the Shrek team. And there will be a soul sect team with martial soul fusion skills. This In the Second Soul Master Competition, Team Shrek will definitely be able to make a splash."

"Really, then I'll really wait and see." Ning Fengzhi had a smile on his face.

When he said this, he couldn't help but think of his precious daughter, because the Soul Master Guild Academy was closed. Outsiders are not allowed to enter, and they are not allowed to leave the school privately during the school period.

He also hasn't seen his daughter in two years.

I don’t know if Rongrong’s martial soul has evolved into the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda.

What level of soul power has it reached? At the very least, it shouldn't be any worse than Chang Gong Miao.

One month later, in the north of Tiandou City, Shrek Academy.

There are only three days left before the Soul Master Competition.

Compared with two years ago, Shrek Academy has changed a lot. With the support of Xue Qinghe, a rich man, Shrek Academy has taken on a completely new look. It has been transformed from an abandoned Forbidden Army training ground into a medium-sized high-level soul master academy. .

The only thing worthy of criticism now is that it is too deserted.

Including the dean, there are only five teachers and seven students. There is also one person who borrowed it from the Qibao Glazed Sect, but it has not been paid yet and will have to be returned later. Four students are still training outside and have never returned to school.

In other words, Shrek Academy is fully equipped with only seven people.

If you want to recruit people, you must obtain a school qualification certificate recognized by the two empires, Wuhun Palace, and Soul Master Guild.

But this is no longer a problem. As long as the Shrek team can achieve sufficiently impressive results in the Soul Master Competition three days later, this problem can be solved.

↑This is the voice of everyone at Shrek at this moment.

It was late autumn, fallen leaves were flying, and the withered yellow leaves fell on the deserted gate of Shrek Academy, adding a touch of loneliness to Shrek Academy.

It was noon at this time, just after dinner, four people, one tall, one fat, one thin and one strong, arrived in front of Shrek Academy.

One of them looks to be in his early twenties, has long blond hair, is over two meters tall, has double pupils, and has a look of emotion and excitement on his face. He is standing there staring at Shrek. The brand new carving of a special monster is on the plaque on the gate of the academy.

The other three looked slightly younger, but they were all over twenty. There was also excitement on their faces.

They were none other than the Four Shrek Uglys who had just returned from the Sunset Forest.

A month has passed.

They all obtained their favorite soul rings based on their experience in obtaining soul rings in their previous lives.

Among them, after Dai Mubai and Oscar obtained the fifth soul ring, their soul power was promoted to fifty-second and fifty-first levels respectively.

After Ma Hongjun obtained the fourth soul ring, he reached level 47 under the continuous influence of the blood ginseng medicine in his body.

Tang San was even more 'remarkable'. After absorbing the Ten Thousand Years Crypt Demonic Spider, his soul power soared directly to level forty-nine, one level shy of becoming the Soul King.

But this is not without cost, because without the external spirit bone to share the pressure, and the three immortal grasses to strengthen the physical and mental strength, Tang San's absorption of the 40,000-year-old spirit ring can be said to have a narrow escape.

It took a full week just to absorb the soul ring. If it weren't for the powerful soul in his body, he would have exploded and died.

Even so, he felt that it was worth it.

Because the Wuhun Palace in this life is too powerful, there is not much time for him to continue to grow slowly like in his previous life.
