Chapter 58 Target: Ten Thousand Years!
Chapter 58 Goal: One hundred thousand years!
"Senior Snake Lady, this Phoenix-tailed Cockscomb Snake was hunted by many of our academies. I hope you can show mercy and let it go."
Zhao Wuji, who had always been tough, bowed to the old woman in front of him and said very respectfully.
Zhao Wuji had a smile on his face, but he was thinking in his heart, "You're a noob and you're still right. You're a powerful Soul Emperor, but you managed to get away with hunting a soul beast for over a thousand years. Why are you pretending to be so arrogant now?"
"Xiao Zhao, I advise you to take care of yourself and hand over the snake to us quickly. Otherwise, when our old man comes, you will be in trouble!" The snake lady Chao Tianxiang who was standing opposite him was not polite at all. She pointed at him with the crutch in her hand and threatened him mercilessly.
Even a clay man can get angry, let alone Zhao Wuji who already had a hot temper. Now that that snake woman pointed at him, Zhao Wuji stopped pretending and directly possessed his martial spirit, pouring out his huge aura towards the other party.
"Chao Tianxiang, calling you Senior Snake Woman is to give face to your husband, you must not take it for granted. A dignified Soul Emperor could let a thousand-year-old soul beast run away? Isn't that shameful? And now you have the nerve to bring it up?" Zhao Wuji smiled contemptuously and ruthlessly exposed the other party's fig leaf.
After saying that, he took out a small knife and threw it directly to Oscar who was standing aside in shock: "Little Oscar, don't worry about her, just kill her."
Oscar clumsily took the knife and reacted. Without further ado, he killed the little snake and began to absorb the soul ring.
The snake woman's face turned red due to extreme anger. As the purple soul ring floated up, she knew that there was no room for turning around what happened today.
"Hmph, Zhao Wuji, if you have guts, I will remember what happened today. One day, I will go and seek justice from you!" The snake woman uttered a few vicious words, then ran away with the short-haired girl beside her.
Seeing her leave, Zhao Wuji breathed a sigh of relief, but then a look of deep worry emerged on his face. It might feel good to pretend to be cool, but what if the other party really came to him afterwards, wouldn't he be in trouble?
Just as he was worried, a familiar voice came over:
"Oh, Lao Zhao, I never thought you would be so tough today."
Seeing that the person coming was Leng Xiyao, Zhao Wuji breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Oh, that old woman is really too ignorant. If she had spoken nicely, then this matter could be discussed. But her attitude..."
Halfway through his words, Zhao Wuji's expression suddenly turned strange: "Xiyao, have you broken through to level 30?"
After hearing what Zhao Wuji said, the little monsters all showed shock on their faces - when they parted yesterday, the other party was only level 28, but now he has broken through to level 30?
Is this still a human being?
The person who came was Leng Xiyao. After hearing what Zhao Wuji said, she smiled and said, "Hey, it's not important. I was thinking of solving this problem myself, but now it seems that it is not necessary."
Just as everyone was marveling at Leng Xiyao's rapid improvement in strength, Ning Rongrong noticed that there was a little black kitten in Leng Xiyao's hand.
The little kitten was very cute and adorable. At this moment, it was lazily lying in Leng Xiyao's arms. It was so small that it seemed to have no weight at all. It was simply the pet that every girl dreamed of.
No girl can resist the temptation of cute things, and Ning Rongrong is no exception, so she walked forward pitifully and pulled the hem of Leng Xiyao's skirt:
"Sister Yaoyao, can you let me hug this little black cat?"
Among Shrek’s new students, Leng Xiyao was born the earliest among this group of little monsters of the same age, so it was natural for Ning Rongrong to call her sister.
"Oh, you mean Xiao Hei? That won't work. It's shy." Leng Xiyao touched the black cat in her hand and refused politely.
This black cat is actually the transformation of one of the two Hydralisks. The characteristic of the Shadow Hydralisk is that it can easily change its own bone structure and transform into another form to conceal its identity. Except for the ones flying in the sky, all others can be transformed.
However, after the transformation, its ability will be greatly reduced. The larger the size of the thing it transforms into, the more body strength it retains, and the easier it is to transform back to its original form. For example, in this kitten form, there is almost no strength left.
Leng Xiyao was just doing it for fun. After all, she was going to bring it back to Shrek Academy in the future. It would be convenient to test it out now.
Ning Rongrong was not annoyed by Leng Xiyao's rejection. After all, she hadn't seen the kitten yesterday. Maybe it was a 'treasure' that the other party had found last night.
With Leng Xiyao's return, the atmosphere among the little monsters became lively again. Of course, this liveliness might be because they were curious about the beast she was riding. They surrounded Da Huang and kept looking at him. For a moment, no one went to help Oscar guard the beast.
However, with Oscar's talent, it seemed that he didn't need anyone to help protect him, and he absorbed it quickly.
"Haha! I never thought that a useless food-type soul master like me could become a soul master!" Oscar stood up in a very showy manner with a smug expression on his face.
"Alright, alright, you jerk Ao, isn't it just that you became a Soul Master? Our sister Yaoyao had the lowest strength when she entered school, but now she has reached level 30, hasn't she?" Ning Rongrong looked down on Oscar. It's not that she looked down on the other party's martial soul or background, but she simply found this show-off look annoying.
As soon as Oscar heard Ning Rongrong's words, he immediately shut up, looking like a henpecked husband.
"Alright, alright, stop joking. Let's get going and find a spirit ring for the sisters Leng Xiyao and Qin Menglan." Zhao Wuji looked at the crowd whose atmosphere had become cheerful again, and felt a little unhappy. He always felt that he, as the vice-president, had no authority at all, and his tone became very stern.
When the little monsters saw that Lao Zhao was about to lose his temper, they stopped showing off and stood in a row obediently.
But what surprised them was that the next second Zhao Wuji came to Leng Xiyao's side, with a lackey-like appearance, and asked with a flattering smile: "I wonder what type of spirit ring do you want, classmate Leng Xiyao?"
Leng Xiyao had thought about this problem, but based on the spirit rings absorbed during the previous two upgrades, it seemed that the level of the spirit ring absorbed would not affect the progress of the system upgrade. It would be the same whether it took a hundred years or a million years, so she might as well absorb a ten-year spirit ring this time.
Thinking of this, Leng Xiyao replied: "I want to absorb a ten"
"Ding! Activate the mission - [System Upgrade]: Please prepare a spirit ring of at least 100,000 years for the system as an opportunity for the system upgrade."
“Mission Rewards: Zerg Hero Advancement Card, a female system elf (whose world view can be customized), and a skill stealing card.”
"Penalty for failure: Losing the chance to choose your own destiny."
Seeing the task issued by the system, Leng Xiyao changed her mind on the spot:
"A soul beast of 100,000 years!"
