Anyone who is familiar with Zhao Wuji knows that although Zhao Wuji looks rough and unremarkable on the outside, he is extremely aloof in his heart and has never looked down upon those who are not as strong as him.
At this moment, seeing how Zhao Wuji behaved so gently when facing an old woman whose strength was far inferior to his own, Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun and Oscar, who knew him best, were all a little surprised.
"Hello, Dear Soul Saint."
Chao Tianxiang's rosy face moved slightly, making her facial expression as gentle as possible, and bowed slightly to Zhao Wuji, showing the due respect for a strong soul saint.
Then he looked at Oscar and the crested crested snake under the short blade in his hand:
"You cannot give this crested crested snake to this child."
When Zhao Wuji heard this, his thick eyebrows frowned slightly, feeling a little unhappy in his heart, but he still gave Oscar a look to signal him not to do anything yet, and then turned to Snake Lady Chao Tianxiang:
"Why?"
Zhao Wuji's tone was very calm, but the Soul Saint-level soul power fluctuations emanating from his body made this simple question seem very powerful and oppressive.
Feeling the huge soul power that was waiting to be unleashed in Zhao Wuji, Chao Tianxiang felt awe-inspiring, but she was not that afraid because she was well-informed. She looked at Zhao Wuji indifferently and gave her own reasons:
"Because this crested crested snake is our prey."
"It was the first one we discovered and hunted. We tracked it here because of it."
Zhao Wuji frowned even deeper:
"How to prove it?"
Snake Po smiled at Tianxiang and said:
"There are several scars on the crested cockscomb's abdomen and under its wings, which can be used as evidence that it was injured by my snake staff."
Oscar was a little dissatisfied, so he temporarily put away the short blade in his hand, and turned over the huge body of the crested snake with difficulty, exposing its abdomen and the lower part of its wings.
Sure enough, as the old woman said, there were indeed several wounds there. Judging from the shape of the wounds, they were caused by blunt objects, which were almost 100% consistent with the snake-head crutch in the old woman's hand.
Oscar suddenly looked bitter.
It turned out that this thousand-year-old crested crested snake was indeed the first prey discovered, and Shrek and his team only intercepted it halfway.
Logically speaking, this cockscomb snake should be returned to others, but in this way, he would miss out on this thousand-year-old cockscomb snake soul ring.
Oscar was unwilling to give up, so he turned his attention to Zhao Wuji and asked him to make the decision for him.
Seeing the scars on the belly and under the wings of the cockscomb snake, Zhao Wuji already knew that what the old woman said was true.
But so what.
In the world of soul masters, the ownership of soul beasts does not simply depend on whoever discovers them first or hunts them first, but rather depends on whose fists are stronger and whose strength is stronger.
This crested crested snake is already the property of Shrek Academy and is the third soul ring prepared for Oscar. Even if Oscar doesn't look at him and let him make the decision, he will never hand over the crested crested snake.
"I am so fragrant that my friends in the soul master world think highly of me and gave me the title of 'Snake Lady'. My husband's name is Meng Shu, and he is known as 'Dragon Lord'."
Chao Tianxiang didn't know what Zhao Wuji was thinking, so she introduced herself, pointed to the beautiful girl next to her and said:
"This is our granddaughter, Meng Yiran."
"I came to the Star Dou Forest just to find a suitable third soul ring for our granddaughter."
"You have also seen that there are scars on the belly and under the wings of the cockscomb. It should belong to us."
"I hope Your Majesty the Soul Saint will do something convenient and return it to us. My granddaughter needs this spirit ring very much. She inherited my weapon spirit snake staff. The spirit ring of this phoenix-tailed cockscomb snake is the most suitable for her. of."
Facing Soul Saint-level Zhao Wuji, Chao Tianxiang's tone was very good, but neither humble nor overbearing.
Even if her husband Meng Shu is not around for the time being, relying on his reputation as "Dragon Duke" and "Snake Lady", he will surely be able to make the other party fearful and dare not refuse his request, let alone do anything to his grandfather and grandson.
After all, they are "unparalleled dragons and snakes" and are also well-known figures in the soul master world.
Chao Tianxiang had a very good and simple idea, relying on the reputation of her husband and wife to intimidate Zhao Wuji.
But what she didn't know was that Zhao Wuji was a ruthless person, fearless of heaven and earth. He dared to provoke the Lianli clan and even the Wuhun Palace, so how could he be afraid of the "unparalleled dragon snake" of the Dragon Snake Mansion? .
He smiled coldly and showed his name:
"It turns out that the 'Snake Lady' is in front of me. I, Zao Wuji, also had a small title back then, and was known as the 'Fudo Ming King'."
In fact, when he first noticed the snake-head crutch in Chao Tianxiang's hand, he had already guessed the identity of Chao Tianxiang's "Snake Woman".
However, he was also famous in the soul master world back then. Although it was just a bad reputation, his reputation was no worse than that of the "Unparalleled Dragon and Snake". The name of "Unparalleled Dragon and Snake" could not suppress him.
"It turns out he is the 'Fudo Ming King' who is well-known in the soul master world. No wonder he has cultivated to the soul saint realm at such a young age."
Chao Tianxiang looked slightly surprised, but at the same time he couldn't help frowning. "Fudo Myoto" is not a good reputation, but has a bad reputation. I didn't expect to meet such a guy. What a bad luck!
"Senior is so complimentary."
Zhao Wuji smiled modestly, and then changed his words:
"However, I have retired and now teach some students in a college. This time I came to the Star Dou Forest to hunt for a soul ring for one of my students, and this crested crested snake is also very suitable for him. Soul ring.”
"I'm afraid this matter won't be easy to handle!"
Chao Tianxiang's brows furrowed deeper, and the wrinkles on her face also increased a few times. Her eyes that were swallowing up her energy narrowed slightly:
"So, Your Excellency, Prince Fudo, is not planning to return this crested crested snake to us?"
Facing Chao Tianxiang's threatening gaze, Zhao Wuji was not afraid, smiled slightly, and said:
"Senior Snake Po, that's not what you said."
"Perhaps you were the first to discover this thousand-year-old cockscomb snake and injure it, but we were the ones who caught it in the end. I'm afraid it's inappropriate for you to insist that it belongs to you."
At this time, Meng Yiran, the beautiful girl next to Chao Tianxiang, couldn't help but say:
"Hey, are you being reasonable?"
"We found this crested snake first, hunted it first, and injured it first. You just cut it off halfway, so of course it should be returned to us."
Of course Zao Wuji knew the truth, but was he a reasonable person?
Obviously not.
He was very thick-skinned, his face was not red, his heart was not beating, and he coughed twice:
"Ahem, little girl, you said it wrong."
"All the spirit beasts in the Star Forest are ownerless and can be hunted by everyone. It does not belong to whoever finds it first or hurts it first. It depends on who catches it first. , who hunted it first."
"Now that we have caught this crested crested snake, of course it is ours."
"Is there anything wrong with what I said?"
"You..." Meng Yiran was so angry that he lightly stomped his little foot, grabbed Chao Tianxiang's hand with his little hand, and said coquettishly: "Grandma~~~"
Chao Tianxiang patted Meng Yiran's little hand gently:
"Don't worry, grandma will make the decision for you."
However, having said that, the Zhao Wuji across from him is a heinous and vicious man. If the name of "Unparalleled Dragon and Snake" hadn't calmed him down a little, this kid might have directly killed his grandfather and grandson.
Chao Tianxiang was right. Zhao Wuji did have the idea of killing Chao Tianxiang and Meng Yiran with a thunderbolt. He only gave up the idea after considering that there might be a Contra-level Dragon Duke Meng Shu nearby. Got this idea.
Besides, he may not be able to keep Chaotianxiang.
Although his strength is much higher than that of Chao Tianxiang, if Chao Tianxiang is determined to escape, he, a powerful fighting soul master, may not be able to catch up.
If Duke Long Meng Shu is attracted again, then their group will be in danger.
Chao Tianxiang's expression was serious. It would be impossible for her to give up just like that. She turned her eyes slightly and glanced at the few young people behind Zhao Wuji. Suddenly, her eyes narrowed.
The eight young people in front of me, ranging from twelve to sixteen years old, are all at the level of great soul masters, and the lowest soul power is twenty-seventh level, and the highest one has thirty-seventh level. .
The bearded young man squatting in front of the phoenix-tailed cockscomb, holding a short blade, and the little girl in leather clothes with breasts, er, body that is very developed, are already at level 30 at this time, and they need soul rings to advance. when.
God, each of these young people is considered a genius, and their talent is no less than that of his granddaughter Meng Yiran.
Where did this Zhao Wuji get so many talented students?
At this sight, Chao Tianxiang's expression suddenly changed, and she was directly shocked. However, when her eyes fell on Ye Qifeng, she was stunned for a moment.
Um? wrong? Why is there still an ordinary person here? I can't detect a trace of soul power on my body. Could it be that some secret method or soul skill was used to hide the aura?
Chao Tianxiang has this guess.
This is because as long as the soul master does not deliberately hide his soul power aura, or use special secrets or soul skills to hide his aura, experts above the Soul Emperor level can roughly judge the soul power level of soul masters below the Soul Sect realm.
However, she wasn't so sure about it.
Chao Tianxiang had a rough idea of the strength of the eight young people in the room, but she couldn't see through the most handsome boy. No matter how she looked at him, he was no different from an ordinary person.
Chao Tianxiang was full of confusion, but she also hatched a plan. She whispered a few words in a special secret language into her granddaughter Meng Yiran's ear.
Meng Yiran's beautiful blue-gray eyes lit up instantly, and he nodded lightly, seeming to agree with something.
Chao Tianxiang lightly wiped the silver hair on her head, turned to Zhao Wuji, and showed a smile on her face:
"Since we both have differences, we both want this thousand-year-old crested crested snake."
"How about this. According to the rules of the soul master world, one of us will compete with each other. The loser will give up voluntarily, and the winner will get the right to own this thousand-year-old crested crested snake."
Zhao Wuji thought for a moment and nodded:
"Can."
Then he looked at Meng Yiran next to Chao Tianxiang, pointed at Oscar and Ning Rongrong, and grinned:
"Little girl, you are alone. There are many people here, and I will not bully you. Except for their two auxiliary soul masters, you can choose any of the others to fight with you."
After finishing speaking, a sly look flashed in Zhao Wuji's eyes, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
Judging from the delicate skin and tender flesh of the little girl opposite, it is obvious that she is a pampered rich lady, and she must be lacking in combat experience.
As for combat experience, every one of their Shrek Academy students was very strong and definitely not inferior to her. Even Tang San and Xiao Wu, who had just entered school, also had extremely strong actual combat abilities.
Especially Tang San, once he got ruthless, he was like a hedgehog, very perverted.
Shrek will definitely win this battle.
Zhao Wuji was extremely happy.
But he seemed to have forgotten that there were two people in this team who were not from Shrek Academy, Ye Qifeng and Zhu Zhuqing.
"No, I choose him!"
As soon as Zhao Wuji finished speaking, Meng Yiran immediately raised the snake staff in his hand and pointed it straight in one direction.
And where she was pointing, there stood a handsome young man dressed in black clothes, with an extremely handsome appearance and a superb temperament. It was Ye Qifeng.
"You want to choose me?"
Ye Qifeng, who was eating melon and watching a show, looked confused. He didn't understand why Meng Yiran suddenly chose him. Shouldn't he have chosen that piece of shit Tang San?
Others were also a little surprised.
Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun didn't have any objections. They saw Ye Qifeng's strength. They both received a severe beating not long ago and almost couldn't get out of bed.
Although I don't know how strong Ye Qifeng is, he is definitely much stronger than the two of them.
Judging from the fact that Ye Qifeng's martial spirit was not even activated, he completely destroyed them. Ye Qifeng's strength can only be described in one sentence - ridiculously strong!
Ye Qifeng can definitely win the ownership of this thousand-year-old crested crested snake for Oscar.
However, a certain bitch didn't think so.
"Wait!"
Suddenly, a voice sounded loudly in the field.
Hearing this voice, everyone turned their heads and looked at the source of the voice, Tang San.
A meaningful smile appeared on Ye Qifeng's lips, wanting to see what kind of flowers Tang San could say.
Seeing everyone's attention attracted, Tang San stepped out:
"Ye Qifeng is not with us, he cannot represent us."
Of course Tang San knew that Ye Qifeng was very powerful, but he didn't trust Ye Qifeng.
Judging from the fact that Ye Qifeng snatched Dai Mubai's fiancée, this person is definitely a lustful person. Facing a beauty like Meng Yiran, it is difficult to ensure that he will not let go. In this case, Oscar's soul ring is likely to be ruined. .
Besides, how could he let go of such an opportunity to express himself?
If he fights for Oscar and wins this phoenix-tailed crested snake soul ring, Oscar will definitely be grateful to him, and maybe he can even gain Oscar's loyalty through this.
"Yes, little girl, this little brother is not with us, he is just traveling with us temporarily. You'd better find someone else."
Zhao Wuji also reacted, touched his head, smiled awkwardly, and thought to himself: "I'm going, I forgot that there are others in the team."
"It's not what you said. Apart from the two auxiliary soul masters, can anyone else choose at will? I have chosen now. Why, you don't mean what you say? Why don't you call yourself the 'Fudo Ming King'? You talk like Like farting? Humph~"
Meng Yiran cocked his head proudly and snorted in displeasure, his tone full of ridicule and disdain.
She still remembered the way Zhao Wuji acted like a rogue just now. She was very vindictive and would not let go of the opportunity to mock Zhao Wuji.
"."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Wuji had a black line on his face, his chest heaved and his liver ached with anger.
Of course he was unhappy to be ridiculed, but he didn't want to take action against a teenage girl. He was a man of his word, and he had already let the words out, and he didn't know what to do for a while.
"Let me come! I'll fight you!"
At this time, Tang San stood up again.
He didn't want Zhao Wuji to be ridiculed because of him. Although Zhao Wuji and he didn't deal with each other very well, Zhao Wuji was the tutor of Shrek Academy after all, so he had to take his face into consideration, well, it was his own face.
Because he is also a member of Shrek Academy, mocking Zhao Wuji is mocking Shrek Academy, which is equivalent to mocking him.
He would never allow it.
"You can not!"
Meng Yiran shook his head.
"Why?"
Tang San was puzzled.
"Because you are too ugly!"
Meng Yiran answered seriously and nodded affirmatively.
Tang San:"."
Zhao Wuji: "."
Ye Qifeng: "."
other people:"."
