Chapter 665: Chapter 78 Xuan Zi, Evil Soul Master?_1

```

Within the span of just two breaths, the eighteen bright stars on Star's Guard had dimmed.

The golden shield instantly crumbled to pieces.

The entire audience couldn't help but inhale sharply.

The might of an eighth-grade Soul Guidance Device, terrifying indeed!

"You've lost!"

After the strike, Ma Rulong also had no strength left to fight.

He pretended to be strong, leaning on the Sword of Judgment as he stood.

In contrast, members of the Star Luo Team like Jiu Jiu, Huang Heyun, and Chen Xiaojie all appeared much more disheveled.

One after another, they fell to the ground.

As the caster of the Star's Guard, Jiu Jiu suffered a great backlash. She had already passed out.

"You, you all..."

Huang Heyun stretched out a trembling finger pointing at everyone.

However.

Before he could say anything, he felt a wave of discomfort in his heart, a surge of blood rushing to his throat, and he spat out a mouthful of old blood.

"Enough!"

It was at this moment, a grand voice rang out.

Everyone looked up to see that it was none other than His Majesty the Emperor of the Xingluo Empire.

Countless pairs of eyes focused on Xu Jiawei, waiting for the following words from His Majesty the Emperor.

"I hereby declare the Star Luo Royal Team admits defeat."

Xu Jiawei frowned, solemnly announcing the outcome of the competition.

"Your Majesty, we can still fight..."

Huang Heyun struggled to stand up.

At his side, the other members of the Star Luo Team did likewise.

Anyone who was conscious was struggling to stand.

But.

Their Soul Power had been completely drained long ago, and even the residual effects of the eighth-grade Soul Guidance Device had left them seriously injured.

"When I say enough, it is enough!"

Xu Jiawei still had his brow furrowed, "Sky Annihilation Elder, please announce the result of the match. The winners are the Sun-Moon Royal Soul Master Team."

Upon hearing these words, Sky Annihilation Douluo soared into the center of the arena.

He stood between the Sun-Moon Royal Soul Guidance Master Academy Team and the Star Luo Royal Team, loudly proclaiming: "I announce that the champion of this match is the Sun-Moon Royal Soul Guidance Master Academy Team! Also, they are the champions of this competition, let's give them a round of rapturous applause and congratulations."

One should not falter in spirit even if defeated, and even if the grand prize was taken by another, they must maintain their dignity.

As the words of Sky Annihilation Douluo spread throughout the venue, the audience first fell into a brief silence and then erupted into thunderous applause and cheers.

No matter who won or lost today, today's match was truly spectacular.

Seventh-grade and eighth-grade Soul Guidance Devices appeared one after another, making for an explosive sight rarely seen in the history of the competition.

"The money was well spent!"

"Indeed, just a few silver soul coins for a ticket to see someone wield an eighth-grade Soul Guidance Device, totally worth it."

"Even the next competition might not offer a match as thrilling as this one..."

"..."

The audience members all clutched their fists in excitement.

After a moment, the voice of Sky Annihilation Douluo once again rose in the arena, "Silence! Next, His Majesty will present the awards to the championship team. And he will also make a closing speech for the competition."

With the fall of Sky Annihilation Douluo's voice, thunderous applause erupted.

Many in the audience were citizens of the Xingluo Empire, naturally, they couldn't allow their Emperor to be disregarded.

Amidst the resounding applause, Xu Jiawei ascended the stage.

On either side of him stood two beauties in slit dresses.

Each beauty held a tray in their hands.

"Congratulations to you all."

Xu Jiawei spoke with great poise, "I hope that on your future path, you will continue to prosper."

However, who cared for his words?

Xiao Hongchen couldn't wait any longer and approached one of the trays, unveiling the mysterious veil.

"Wow, they actually are three soul bones..."

"But the quality is so-so..."

Upon hearing Xiao Hongchen's comment, the corners of Xu Jiawei's mouth involuntarily twitched.

Who on earth is this brat?

Doesn't he know how to save me some face?

Moreover, because of the Soul Master competition, I've already lost a lot, can't I use a few lower-quality soul bones to make up some losses?

After the end of the Soul Master competition, the Sun-Moon Royal Soul Guidance Master Academy Team departed overnight, embarking on their return journey to Ming City.

"Grandpa, it's really unnecessary, we just finished the competition, why rush off so hastily? Shouldn't we let everyone rest well and relax?"

On the way, Xiao Hongchen complained discontentedly.

Jing Hongchen snorted at his dear grandson, "Don't think I don't know what you're up to, are you looking to relax or to show off?"

"Erm..."

Xiao Hongchen's face flashed with an embarrassed expression.

Jing Hongchen's words had clearly struck a chord with him.

Meng Hongchen tugged at Jing Hongchen's sleeve, "Grandpa, I think after our hard-fought victory, it's a feat like no other, a little show-off shouldn't be a problem, right?"

This hard-earned victory was indeed momentous, even historically significant.

The Sun-Moon Empire's Sky Soul, Dou Spirit, and Star Luo nations couldn't hold their heads high, such a glorious achievement was certainly for the history books.

Facing Meng Hongchen, Jing Hongchen's attitude was very different, "Little Meng, there are still some secret issues at play here."

The gravity in Jing Hongchen's voice was clear to everyone present.

Elder Ma's heart also suddenly lurched.

So... what exactly was it that made the Hall Master so wary?

This time, without waiting for anyone to ask, Jing Hongchen explained the reason directly, "Some time ago, Qin Xiao caught the attention of the Body Sect. They want Qin Xiao to join them."

The Body Sect!

Upon hearing Jing Hongchen's words, Elder Ma's expression changed dramatically.

```


Chapter 666: Chapter 78 Xuan Zi, Evil Soul Master?_2

He knew about this. It was he who had driven away the Body Sect powerhouse after all.

"A powerhouse from the Body Sect makes even the Hall Master so cautious?"

"We have to be cautious," Jing Hongchen said with a bitter smile, "The strength of the Body Sect is not inferior to Mingde Hall or Shrek. Of course, their strength is one aspect, but what's more important is their nature—each one is extremely belligerent and daring to fight, even more so than Shrek when it comes to stirring up trouble. Decades ago, they caused a catastrophe that nearly annihilated the powers of the Douluo Three Kingdoms, including Shrek. Moreover, the previous Sect Master of the Body Sect almost perished together with the master of the Shrek Academy's Sea God's Pavilion..."

"In short, they're madmen, and we have to guard against them."

Jing Hongchen said, and couldn't help but glance at Qin Xiao.

Upon hearing Jing Hongchen's words, everyone in the room gasped.

Hiss...

The Body Sect dares to be so crazy?

"Even if my uncle possesses a self martial soul, does he really need to join the Body Sect?" Meng Hongchen puckered her lips disapprovingly.

"Heh, if those guys from the Body Sect were reasonable, I wouldn't need to be so wary."

Jing Hongchen laughed and shook his head.

In fact, his heart was becoming even more anxious.

If a powerhouse from the Body Sect came to stir up trouble during this period, he would actually feel relieved. But since no one had come, he didn't believe for a second that the Body Sect would let it go so easily.

So, there was only one possibility—that the Body Sect was brewing a major move.

Thinking of the time, wasn't it about time for old Poison Not Dead to kick the bucket?

It wouldn't be surprising if that old coot personally took action.

...

Meanwhile, elsewhere.

Within the Xingluo Empire, in an unnamed small town.

What should have been a bustling small town was now enveloped in a silence as thick as death.

At the end of the small town, a Soul King level powerhouse was filled with terror.

He threatened the old man in front of him with a child in his hands, "Don't come any closer, or I'll kill him!"

Upon hearing this, the old man hesitated for a moment, then took a hearty swig from the liquor gourd on his waist and said with a laugh, "If you want to kill him, then kill him. He was killed by you evil Soul Masters anyway, what does it have to do with me?"

The evil Soul Master was taken aback and quickly said, "Of course it matters? As long as you let me go, I can spare the child in my hands."

But the old man shook his head, "That's impossible. With your Soul King level cultivation, to ordinary people, you are a disaster. If I let you go, I would be releasing a tiger back into the mountains, and in the future, you will harm more people, a thousand, ten thousand, even a hundred thousand. So no matter what, I cannot let you leave."

"Grandfather, I don't want to die yet. Please save me..."

At this moment, the child in the evil Soul Master's hands also hurriedly pleaded for help.

His eyes were filled with entreaty.

But Xuan Zi's face remained indifferent, showing no signs of emotion, "Child, your family is already dead, and you are all alone. Even if I could save you, it's difficult for you to survive alone in this world. To die now might be a good thing—I'm helping you find release..."

Upon hearing this, the youth's expression froze.

As if turned to stone.

"That same old reasoning, always the same old spiel!"

In contrast, the evil Soul Master's face suddenly showed a mad rage, "Xuan Zi, stop with your false benevolence. Of the more than three hundred people in this town, I killed only a dozen, while at least three hundred died by your hand. Those are the lives of over three hundred innocent people!"

Thinking back on what had just happened, he felt a chilling sensation in his heart.

The old gentlemen of Shrek who always preached about protecting the peace of the Douluo Continent and shielding the citizens from evil Soul Masters, were merciless when it came to killing those civilians.

Anyone used by him as a human shield ended up dead by Xuan Zi's one strike.

Xuan Zi even claimed to be freeing them and saving more people by doing so. He said, killing one innocent person could save thousands, and he would not hesitate to kill that innocent person.

But... you've killed hundreds of innocent people already.

The evil Soul Master's sanity crumbled, as he angrily accused, "Xuan Zi, look at what you're doing now, how is it any different from us evil Soul Masters? Not to mention, I have killed merely over a hundred innocent people in my life. That's not even a third of yours."

"So what?"

Xuan Zi raised his eyebrow, "Killing one is murder, killing a hundred is also murder. I am intent on using killing to stop killing, killing until you evil Soul Masters are terrified."

"You, you're really insane!"

The evil Soul Master was shocked; he hadn't expected to encounter such a perverse righteous Soul Master.

"Insane, I truly am insane! Ever since Elder Mu was accused and Xiao Tao disappeared, I've lost my mind. I will kill all of you evil Soul Masters."

As Xuan Zi spoke, his eyes revealed a look of madness.

The evil Soul Master noticed that at this moment, Xuan Zi was truly deranged.

His white hair flew about wildly, and his eyes were bloodshot.

A white aura of murderous intent had condensed into something tangible.

He truly seemed more like an evil Soul Master than the evil Soul Masters themselves.

"Die!"

The next moment, Xuan Zi's indifferent voice rang in the evil Soul Master's ear, and with a punch, his powerful Soul Power burst forth like a torrential flood, obliterating the evil Soul Master and the youth in his grip in a show of overwhelming force.

"Xuan Zi, you will not die a good death!"

As the evil Soul Master faced death, he let out a curse-like scream.

But that voice lasted only for a moment.

Xuan Zi disdainfully picked at his ear with his little finger, "At last, the world is quiet."

With that said.

He looked again at the deathly silent town, set it ablaze, and strutted away from the town.

However.

What Xuan Zi didn't realize was that after he left, two figures shrouded in black cloaks stepped out from the shadows.

And in each of their hands was a strange soul tool.

It was a fist-sized crystal.

Within the crystal, everything that had happened in the town was recorded in its entirety.

In other words, it recorded the scenes of Xuan Zi's killing spree in the town.

The crystals in their hands were clearly no ordinary items, but a type of soul tool known as Memory Crystal.

They were priced at two or three golden soul coins each, not very expensive, but in their hands, they had a significant use.

"Hehehe, truly spectacular."

"Who would have thought the second strongest of Shrek Academy would also indulge in indiscriminate slaughter?"

One of them sneered.

His companion next to him hmphed, "Hmph, what about Shrek? Shrek is also human, and as long as one is human, they have emotions, joy, sorrow, anger... Right now, Xuan Zi is completely controlled by anger."

"Moreover, all these years, has Shrek truly acted for the benefit of the citizens of the Soul Land? I don't really think so. Compared to that, the benefits received by the people are far less than what Shrek has gained. Their self-interest outweighs their responsibilities. I also heard that at this Soul Master Contest, an evil Soul Master naturally awakened. Hehehe, the self-proclaimed righteous Shrek, actually nurturing an evil Soul Master, what an irony."

With that said, his mouth curved into a cold smile.

The smile was thick with irony.

Meanwhile, the evil Soul Master watching Xuan Zi disappear completely from their line of sight, hurriedly said, "Alright, alright, the matters of the Soul Land are not for small characters like us to interfere in. All I know is, our task is to keep a close eye on that old Xuan Zi, and to ensure there are enough evil Soul Masters set upon him, driving him further and further down this path where he believes killing one can save hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands."

After hearing this, his accomplice also showed a sly smirk, "You're right. But look, just a dozen miles from here in another town, another evil Soul Master is waiting for Xuan Zi's arrival. When the time comes, I want to see whether he will kill or not kill the civilians of that town."

However.

The other man shook his head, "Brother, you are mistaken. This old fellow, even if he needs to kill, he shall kill; if he does not, we shall force him to. "

"I am very, very much looking forward to the day these pieces of evidence are revealed to the public, whether the people will see him as an evil Soul Master, and whether Shrek will be able to whitewash him..."
