The Coiling Dragon Staff glowed brightly, and Wang Nan stood in mid-air, surrounded by ten thousand Dragons dancing in unison.
"Run!"
At this moment, Feng Ling's heart held only this one word.
The Wang Nan before her was even more terrifying than Ye Xishui, the Supreme Cult Master she had once seen. She could no longer feel the spirit power within her body, and even the rotation of her Spirit Core seemed to have stopped.
Within Wang Nan's Domain, Evil Soul Masters were affected far more severely than ordinary Spirit Masters. As a Super Douluo, she was now like an ordinary person, running toward the outside of Shrek Academy.
But how could she escape the pursuit of the giant Dragons in the sky with just the strength of her legs?
Feng Ling saw her shadow on the ground constantly growing taller, and a scorching aura was also drawing closer to her.
Fear prevented her from looking back, and only before her consciousness faded did she seem to hear a faint sigh.
Yan Shaozhe, standing nearby, watched Feng Ling dissipate beneath the translucent Dragon Soul claw and finally sighed with a touch of emotion.
His soft-hearted decision to let Feng Ling go back then had finally come to an end.
The Holy Spirit Cult's forces were, of course, not limited to these. To conquer Shrek Academy, they had gathered most of their strength. Besides Feng Ling and Zhang Peng, there were several Titled Douluo, seemingly some Elders and Offerings from the Holy Spirit Cult.
However, under Wang Nan's attack, these Titled Douluo would not fare much better than Zhang Peng and Feng Ling had just now. The power Wang Nan was displaying at this moment had subtly surpassed the "Limit."
Ten thousand Dragons danced in Shrek City, and under the attacks of those giant Dragons, all the Spirit Masters scattered in terror.
Outside the Academy, Xu Tianyuan's humanoid Soul Guidance Device still glowed with golden-red light. The humanoid Soul Guidance Device was powered by a newly developed sealed charging Soul Guidance Device from Mingde Hall, so even if his spirit power could not be mobilized, it could still support some defense.
The other Spirit Douluo of the Royal Dragon Soul Master Corps, wearing humanoid Soul Guidance Devices, also glowed continuously.
Several beams of light connected them, barely supporting a combined Soul Guidance Device shield that enveloped them.
But it only lasted for a few breaths. Dragon Souls attacked one after another, and after dissipating, they quickly reformed around Wang Nan. In just a moment, accompanied by cracking sounds, the Soul Guidance Device shield shattered, and Xu Tianyuan and the Royal Dragon Soul Master Corps were engulfed by Dragon Souls, leaving behind only a mess.
Mirror Hongchen had already begun to retreat rapidly after seeing the successive changes in Shrek City.
Thin, cicada-wing-like wings extended from behind him, and with the power of his Titled Douluo cultivation, he instantly fled over a thousand meters, finally escaping the influence of Wang Nan's Spirit Ability.
However, the other Soul Master Corps were not so lucky. Wang Nan's cultivation had reached the true Limit Douluo level at that moment, and a Limit Douluo's Domain could never be blocked by one or two defensive Soul Guidance Devices.
With their spirit power suppressed and their Soul Guidance Devices rendered useless, those Soul Masters could only remain outside Shrek City.
The long night finally passed. When the sun rose again, soldiers were already cleaning up the battlefield in Shrek City. They moved about, clearing the traces left by the war, and occasionally, when they encountered Soul Guidance Devices they had never seen before, they collected them to be sent to Shrek Academy.
The morning sun fell on Sea God Island, making the Golden Tree on the island shine brightly. Its leaves still glowed, and with its vitality, last night's battle had not caused it much depletion.
Huo Yuhao stood under the tree, carefully listening to the rustling sound of the leaves.
"Yuhao, I knew you'd be here."
Huo Yuhao turned his head at the sound, seeing Beibei walking toward him. "Senior Brother, are you looking for me?"
"It's not me looking for you. Teacher Fan of the Soul Guidance System asked me to see if you were here."
"Teacher Fan? Where is he? Does he need something from me?"
"They're all over at the Soul Guidance System, organizing the spoils of war. You'll know when you get there."
"Alright." Huo Yuhao nodded and activated his spirit power, flying toward the Soul Guidance System.
Approaching Fan Yu's research lab, before he even landed, he saw several figures standing there from afar, and at the center of their circle was a Class 9 fixed-load Soul Guidance Device.
"Yuhao, you've come at just the right time." Fan Yu immediately smiled when he saw Huo Yuhao. "His Excellency left this for us before he departed, but Soul Guidance Devices made by Mingde Hall certainly have exceptionally strict confidentiality measures. We dared not dismantle it on our own, so we had to call you over for help."
Besides Fan Yu, Immortal Liner and Qian Duoduo, the dean and vice-dean of the Soul Guidance System, were also present. Yet even they could only stare at the Mingde Hall-made Soul Guidance Device before them. After seeing Huo Yuhao arrive, everyone's eyes lit up with eagerness.
"Alright, I'll give it a try."
Huo Yuhao did not hesitate. He released his mental force to probe inside, then shared what he saw and heard with the other Soul Guidance System teachers around him. Clear excitement appeared on everyone's faces.
On the other side, at the main entrance of Shrek Academy, Princess Xu Jiujiu and a team of guards waited outside, while Wang Nan and Ma Xiaotao stood at the doorway.
"You're leaving again so soon?"
"Since I promised to do something for someone, I must fulfill my responsibility," Wang Nan replied with a smile.
"But don't worry. The Sun Moon Empire's Protector's Hand has now lost four fingers. It won't be easy for them to form several more Soul Master Corps like this. There shouldn't be such a fierce attack again in a short time. I'm just going there to act as a deterrent. There won't be any danger."
Ma Xiaotao nodded at his words. Given Wang Nan's performance last night, there truly were not many means on the Douluo Continent that could threaten him now.
"Then I'll be going." Wang Nan said, then looked up at Shrek Academy. The statues in front of the main gate had disappeared, and the debris on the ground had been cleared away.
Waving his hand, Wang Nan turned and left. Beside the Star Luo Empire's contingent, a carriage had been waiting for a long time. The carriage was pulled by two thousand-year Dragon Beasts and carved with golden Dragon patterns. A guard had already lifted the curtain.
Wang Nan nodded slightly, then stepped into the carriage. The curtain fell, revealing the words "Heaven's Equal" woven with golden threads, which reflected a faint luster in the sunlight, like Dragon scales.
A team of dozens of Spirit Masters followed behind Princess Xu Jiujiu and Wang Nan's carriage, heading into the distance.
The carriage prepared by the Star Luo Empire for Wang Nan was naturally extraordinary. He did not feel much shaking along the way, and Wang Nan also took the opportunity to sense the changes within his body.
His Spirit Core slowly rotated, creating two much larger vortices around it than before. Within the vortices, the three states of spirit power merged into one, with the solid spirit power being particularly prominent.
