Chapter 15 The Martial Soul Was Eaten
Almost all the core students of the junior academy poured out like a tidal wave. With such an overwhelming force, it would be hard for the dean not to know.
But it was too late to stop it. Although Wu Heyi had not deliberately built up his power in the past two years, the number of people who had received small favors from him was countless.
Most importantly, the academy has always respected the strong, and Wu Heyi's martial arts skills are unparalleled among his peers. Many people admire him and are willing to follow him.
In addition, they were only around ten years old, a group of passionate and loyal kids, so when Wu Heyi called for them, they immediately responded and gathered in droves.
"Boss Wu!"
"Boss Wu!"
"Boss Wu!"
"..."
Although Wu Heyi didn't get carried away by being called "boss" repeatedly, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Wu Heyi had only called a few people he knew well, whose strength had reached level 25 or 26. They could definitely help him hold off the Great Soul Master team.
But to his surprise, so many people followed him as soon as he stepped out. Wu Heyi couldn't very well scold them, so he had no choice but to take them with him.
Only then did Wu Heyi suddenly realize that he needed to ask Mi'er what had happened. He had completely forgotten because he was so anxious. However, what Wu Heyi didn't realize was that he wouldn't have been so impulsive before.
"That day, I set off with two teachers and three younger students..."
Mi'er began to tell her story in detail.
Mi'er and her familiar teacher led the three boys to find a 300-year-old blue silver locust and an emerald dragonfly in the Soul Beast Forest.
The age range of these two spirit beasts was a perfect match for the two children.
After all, not everyone is as gifted as Wu Heyi, who can absorb a thousand-year-old spirit ring with his first ring. Most people can only find spirit rings step by step according to their limits.
The two soul beasts seemed tailor-made for them; Mi'er raised her hand and shot two arrows, hitting them directly.
Both insects had their wings shattered, instantly rendering them unable to fly.
That day, the two boys had just finished absorbing their spirit rings when they saw a tongue shoot towards two spirit beasts that had already lost their spirit rings, like lightning.
Everyone was immediately alarmed and on high alert.
That attack was terrifying. Although the dragonfly and locust spirit beasts were only the size of an adult's fist, their tongues were as fast and agile as lightning, which was definitely not something a hundred-year-old spirit beast could possess.
Mi'er felt a sense of fear, after all, this was the first time she had encountered such a situation. The two teachers, Liu, were more experienced and relatively calm.
There are quite a few soul beasts that prey on locusts and dragonflies, but only a handful have long tongues.
Frogs, chameleons, salamanders, giant salamanders...
Just as the group was still pondering, the tongue attacked again, and in an instant, it snatched away the corpse of another soul beast.
This time, Mi'er's eyes were fixed on the direction from which the tongue was shot, and finally, in a fleeting moment, she caught a glimpse of its true form.
It was a fire bullfrog, its entire body as red as a burning flame, and although its tongue was pink, it left a burnt smell in the air.
Although it was difficult to determine the age of the spirit beast, Mi'er felt that its size must have been around for a thousand years, making it perfect as her third spirit ring, since it had frightened people.
Immediately, Mi'er fired three arrows in succession, and also added her first and second soul skills, which enhanced both the penetration power and the attack speed.
However, the arrow did not hit the soul beast as expected, and the soul beast did not dodge. Instead, a human-like fear was seen on the soul beast's face.
The arrow stopped abruptly less than a meter in front of the soul beast, and a human figure slowly emerged.
The man gripped Mi'er's arrow tightly, and in an instant, he crushed it.
"You dare to even think of harming my son!"
As soon as the figure appeared, a teacher next to Mi'er exclaimed in surprise, "Chameleon!"
Chameleon was both that person's martial spirit and their nickname. However, when that person looked over at the teacher's exclamation, a disdainful smile appeared on their face.
Mi'er looked at the teacher with a lot of doubt. Hearing the teacher's exclamation, she must know her, but the teacher's tone seemed to contain a lot of disgust.
"Chameleon, how dare you, a student expelled from the intermediate academy, step into the academy's exclusive Soul Beast Forest!"
"Expulsion?" These two words struck like a thunderbolt, instantly attracting the curiosity of several students.
"Enough nonsense! That little bitch dared to hurt my son, you must pay the price!" The chameleon's eyes swept over Mi'er's back, then locked onto the two boys behind her who had just obtained their spirit rings and their martial spirits.
His eyes gleamed like a hungry wolf's, and his figure suddenly vanished before everyone's eyes like a ghost. While everyone was still stunned, Mi'er's ears twitched alertly, like radar.
"Watch out!" Mi'er cried out in alarm, raising her hand to shoot two arrows at the two boys.
The two were immediately flustered, not understanding why their senior had suddenly attacked them, but even though they knew they were no match, they still released their martial spirits.
Mi'er felt something was off. She had already shot the arrow, so why hadn't the chameleon moved anymore? But the moment the two boys released their martial spirits, the person moved like lightning.
Mi'er's mind finally caught on; it wasn't that he wasn't afraid of Mi'er's attacks, but rather that his target wasn't her at all.
At this point, it was too late to defend. The arrow that had just been shot was just a feint, with no offensive power, merely intended to block the opponent's movement.
The two little ones, still shaken, jumped to the side in unison, but before they could even regain their footing, they felt themselves being lifted into the air like kites with broken strings.
Immediately afterwards, a tongue as hard as diamond shot out like an arrow, sweeping away the martial spirits of the two people.
Three seconds later, the two knelt down simultaneously, clutching their heads with their hands, their faces contorted in pain, as if they had been tortured.
"What's going on here?"
Mi'er quickly went to check on the two. One of them was still somewhat conscious and said before losing consciousness, "My martial spirit is shattered!"
She fainted after saying that.
How could that be? Although a person's martial soul is not a particularly sturdy thing, I've only ever heard of it being burst by absorbing a super-limited soul ring, but I've never heard of it being eaten.
The giant toad transformed back into human form, but it didn't look very human; its head looked particularly strange.
"My son is my masterpiece. His martial soul is a mutated Sky-Devouring Frog, which can devour all kinds of natural enemies to improve his cultivation!"
"The martial souls of those two good-for-nothings are truly nourishing treasures!"
The man's figure appeared, one hand touching his son's head, while he laughed maniacally.
