Chapter 141 Confirmation: Yun Ming's Recruitment, Ya Li's Suspicion
"Master, what brings you here?"
Hearing the loud noise beside her, Cai Yue'er instantly realized something, her pupils contracted, she suddenly stopped talking, and looked at Yun Ming who walked out with an embarrassed expression.
Upon witnessing this scene, Jiang Xiu, who was in the center of the hall, felt an even stronger chill in his eyes.
Shrek Academy has it too?
What?
It's important to know that the Body Spirit wasn't particularly powerful at first. It wasn't until the first Sect Master of the Body Spirit Sect discovered the second awakening of the Body Spirit that Body Spirit Masters gradually became stronger.
Meanwhile, as the Body Sect continuously absorbed external Body Martial Soul Masters and researched and explored Body Martial Souls, the secondary awakening and cultivation system of Body Martial Souls gradually became perfect.
The entire system took thousands of years to perfect, and all of these things are contained within the secrets of the entity.
Ten thousand years ago, almost all the Body Spirit Martial Soul Masters in the world were disciples of the Body Sect, including a princess of a certain empire. If Huo Yuhao hadn't entered Shrek Academy first, he might have even been taken away by the Body Sect Master, Du Busi.
Therefore, it's impossible for Shrek Academy to have a systematic method for cultivating one's own martial soul, but now Cai Yue'er is saying that Shrek Academy does have one.
The systematic body cultivation method of Shrek Academy has only one source.
That is the secret of their Body Sect's true nature!
"Very good, very good! Once you obtain the Seed of Life, you will all have to vomit up double what you've consumed!"
Jiang Xiu's face remained calm, but his heart was filled with thunderous rage.
If Shrek Academy had returned the secrets of the Body Sect in full, their Body Sect wouldn't be in such a desolate state, to the point of not even having a sect address anymore.
Yun Ming glared at Cai Yue'er, then turned to look at Jiang Xiu, whose expression remained unchanged, as if he hadn't noticed anything amiss.
"Jiang Xiu, have you thought it through? Do you want to join our Shrek Academy? If you are willing to join, you can now choose any elder in the Sea God Pavilion as your master... including this Pavilion Master."
As Yun Ming finished speaking, Shen Yi, who was standing to the side, was filled with shock, and even the two examiners on the side were almost startled to their feet.
This is Yun Ming, the Pavilion Master of their Sea God Pavilion and the strongest person on the continent in this era!
If Jiang Xiu agrees, from now on he will truly be second only to the emperor and above all others!
"Sect Master..." Cai Yue'er was stunned for a moment, and was about to say something, but was glared at by Yun Ming and shut up.
As one of the strongest individuals on the continent, Yun Ming saw things more clearly than Zhuo Shi and Cai Yue'er, and Jiang Xiu's talent was even greater than his back then.
Regardless of the extreme dark attribute of Jiang Xiu's first martial soul, the fact that his second dragon-type martial soul could make even Di Tian tremble with fear is already rare throughout history.
For a moment, the entire hall fell silent; you could hear a pin drop.
Everyone present waited for Jiang Xiu's answer.
Jiang Xiu raised his eyes to look at Yun Ming, his purple eyes devoid of any fervor. A slow smile curved his lips as he calmly said:
"Since childhood, Xiu has been taken in by his master, and everything he needs in terms of clothing, food, shelter and transportation has been provided by his master."
"Without a master, there would be no Xiu today."
"From the very first day he stepped into the Body Sect, Xiu Weilai will forever be a member of the Body Sect."
"Although I have no great ambitions, I know that one should never forget one's roots."
"So... I refuse!"
Jiang Xiu's tone was light, but there was no doubt about it.
Upon hearing Jiang Xiu's refusal, Shen Yi looked puzzled and regretful, while the two middle-aged examiners were even more heartbroken.
This is the first person from the mainland. If they were given this opportunity, they would kneel down without hesitation.
"What?! You refused!" Cai Yue'er's face instantly turned displeased. "Do you know what you've missed?"
"This is my true intention, so how can I say I missed out?" Jiang Xiu said calmly.
He knew very well that Shrek Academy was now far stronger than their Body Sect, and that by joining Shrek Academy, he could obtain better resources and achieve his goals more quickly.
But! Those who walk different paths cannot work together.
Moreover, Shrek Academy holds the secrets of their Body Sect's Body Realm; how could he possibly agree to that?
Although his master Mu Ye is not as strong as Yun Ming now, he dares to venture into the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well alone for the sake of his and his senior brother's resources.
Besides, who says that not joining Shrek Academy means you can't use Shrek Academy's resources? He believes that Elder Jin will help him...
"You brat! You're not worth associating with! Get out of the examination hall! Zero points for the fifth round!" Cai Yue'er was furious at Jiang Xiu's indifferent demeanor and pointed outside, shouting angrily.
"Cai Yue'er!" Ya Li emerged from the spatial dimension, her face contorted with anger. "You will return to the Sea God Pavilion immediately, suspended from your duties, and forbidden from leaving the area for six months!"
It's one thing for Cai Yue'er to be domineering normally, but Jiang Xiu has a way to control the power of faith. If Jiang Xiu really leaves, Cai Yue'er will be held responsible.
After saying that, Ya Li looked apologetically at Jiang Xiu, "Young friend Jiang, you got full marks in the fourth and fifth assessments, so please don't take it to heart."
"Of course I won't take it to heart," Jiang Xiu said with a slight smile.
Because he will remember it.
Then, in the future, I'll find an opportunity to refine this old woman... extract her essence into a Shadow Soldier, and have her carry Soul-Guided Cannonballs to bomb the Abyss.
"That's good." Ya Li breathed a sigh of relief and instructed Shen Yi, who was standing to the side, "Quickly take Xiao Xiu to the next hall for the assessment."
"Yes, Your Majesty the Holy Spirit." Shen Yi replied quickly and led Jiang Xiu out of the hall.
After giving the group a deep look, Jiang Xiu followed Shen Yi without hesitation.
After hearing Jiang Xiu's refusal, Yun Ming calmly watched everything without uttering a word.
The other two middle-aged examiners also tactfully left the hall, leaving only three people inside.
When Cai Yue'er saw that Ya Li, who was usually so gentle, was so angry, she was stunned for a moment, but she was also indignant.
"Sect Master, this Jiang Xiu is utterly ungrateful. Mu Ye is merely a Soul Master who hasn't even broken through to Super Douluo level. His cultivation is inferior to mine, so how could he possibly compare to you..."
"Cai Yue'er, didn't you hear what I just said?" Ya Li raised her eyebrows and said in a deep voice.
"Sister Yali..." Cai Yue'er wanted to say something, but then she heard Yun Ming's voice.
"Go, but you are not allowed to leave the Sea God Pavilion for six months. Reflect on your actions and be mindful of your words and deeds in the future."
"...Yes." Cai Yue'er was somewhat unwilling. She hadn't done anything wrong, but she had no choice but to listen to Yun Ming.
After Cai Yue'er left, only Yun Ming and Ya Li remained in the main hall for a time.
Recalling Cai Yue'er's earlier words, Ya Li's eyes rippled, and she softly asked Yun Ming, "Brother Ming, what did Yue'er say about Shrek Academy?"
"These are all minor matters, just some body-strengthening techniques," Yun Ming said, waving his hand with a glint in his eyes.
"Really?" Ya Li murmured. "But why did Yue'er say that Shrek Academy could also teach Jiang Xiu's original martial soul?"
Although she had entered the Sea God Pavilion, she had never been willing to participate in its affairs and decisions unless it was a major event. However, Cai Yue'er's words earlier gave her some clues.
Yun Ming smiled and said, "Don't listen to her nonsense. That's why I interrupted her just now. Otherwise, wouldn't I be misleading the students?"
But as he said this, Yunming's hands clenched tightly inside his robe.
The thing from the Body Sect, it's unknown which Sea God Pavilion Master left it behind, but it has greatly benefited Shrek Academy. Some of the elders' methods for enhancing their physique have been "borrowed" from it.
Regardless, Shrek Academy is now a beneficiary of the system, so this matter must be kept secret.
"I see." Hearing Yun Ming's explanation, Ya Li was slightly relieved, but still advised, "Jiang Xiu was invited by us to study and exchange ideas, so we must not make things difficult for him."
"Oh? Lily, you seem to care about him a lot." Yun Ming raised an eyebrow.
"After all, I promised Leng Yaozhu," Ya Libi said softly, her eyes sparkling.
However, she did not reveal the matter of the power of faith. Long Yeyue and Cai Yue'er's previous actions were too outrageous, which made her somewhat worried. Therefore, she planned to have a thorough discussion with Jiang Xiu before revealing the matter of the power of faith.
"I see." Yun Ming nodded knowingly, but a slight thought stirred within him.
Afterwards, Yunming took Yali to the Ninth Hall.
On the other side, before Cai Yue'er even entered the Sea God Pavilion, her soul communication device rang.
"Old Cai, how's Jiang Xiu's soul power depletion?"
A male voice came from the communication device.
"More than half of it has already been used up, and the soul power will soon be exhausted." Cai Yue'er recalled what Zhuo Shi had said earlier, touched her nose, and said calmly.
"Da Crippled?" the male voice on the other end asked tentatively, sounding puzzled.
"That's right," Cai Yue'er nodded.
"Alright, then watch me. These three are ready." The male voice continued.
Upon hearing this, Cai Yue'er hummed in agreement a few times and then hung up.
As for checking how much soul power Jiang Xiu had left, she had completely forgotten about it and hadn't even looked...
Meanwhile, in the Ninth Assessment Zone...
Clad in a dark green robe, Elder Li looked at Li Qiankun and the other two before him, brandishing his soul tool and saying, "You all heard what Elder Cai said earlier: only the winner can win this battle, do you hear me?"
He was supposed to leave after the first assessment, but because Feng Wuyu had something come up, he continued to serve as the assessor.
"Don't worry, Elder Li. A Soul Master with limited Soul Power might not even need my help," Tang Dong said with a shrug.
"When the time comes, Li Qiankun, you two can go."
Old Li frowned and said, "Children, we must not be careless."
After what happened in the First Hall, he always felt that Jiang Xiu was a bit strange, and that something unexpected always seemed to happen.
When Jiang Xiu left the First Hall, he cheekily told Jiang Xiu to give it his all in the subsequent assessments.
"Relax, relax." Tang Dong was still somewhat dismissive, thinking that no matter how strong Jiang Xiu was, he could beat the three of them.
Impossible, absolutely impossible.
