Chapter 18 The Shrek Seven Monsters

Chapter 18 Shrek Seven Devils

Beams of sunlight pierced the darkness and reached the earth, while a wisp of purple aura accompanied the sunlight and enveloped Ye Nanxiao. 🎅😾 ❻9sina.com

Despite having traveled all day yesterday, Master Ye got up early today, absorbing all the purple energy from the east and integrating it into his Purple Demon Eye. Feeling the slight soreness in his eyes, he activated his Purple Demon Eye, opened his eyes, and observed the subtle world around him.

Ye Nanxiao had just finished activating the Purple Demon Eye when he heard Jiang Nannan's voice coming from the doorway.

"Xiao, open the door quickly!" Jiang Nannan said excitedly.

Ye Nanxiao had just opened the door and was looking at the beautiful woman before him. He was about to hug her to dispel the loneliness he felt from only being able to sleep with his blanket the night before, when Jiang Nannan grabbed him and pulled him outside, excitedly saying, "Let's go, to the Soul Arena!"

"Slow down, slow down, be careful not to fall!" Ye Nanxiao quickly followed Jiang Nannan's steps.

Seeing Ye Nanxiao's happy expression, Bei Bei, who had been quietly cultivating, silently ended her cultivation and left the dormitory to wait for Tang Ya at the stairwell.

Shrek Academy, Battle Arena.

After Jiang Nannan became familiar with the soul bone, she wanted to spar with Ye Nanxiao to see how she was improving.

After Ye Nanxiao got into position, Jiang Nannan quickly launched her attack.

The soul bone located in her leg lit up, increasing Jiang Nannan's speed by more than double, and she attacked Ye Nanxiao with afterimages.

Nine tails swayed behind him, as if covered with a layer of pink. Ye Nanxiao smiled, and a flash of pink appeared in his eyes.

Familiar with Ye Nanxiao's attack methods, Jiang Nannan knew it was a seduction technique. She blinked her big eyes, lowered her head slightly, and avoided Ye Nanxiao's gaze.

"This little girl is so fast, I almost couldn't catch her." Ye Nanxiao's eyes glowed with purple light as he tracked Jiang Nannan's movements.

Just as he raised his hand, about to unleash his soul skill, a heavy force slammed into Ye Nanxiao. Even with Ye Nanxiao's current physical strength, he felt strained, and the release of his soul skill was interrupted.

Jiang Nannan's second soul skill is gravity control.

Ye Nanxiao believed that this soul skill was very suitable for Jiang Nannan, who was an agility-based attacker, and suggested that Jiang Nannan focus on cultivating it after acquiring it.

Imagine being able to unleash a high-speed burst of damage while maintaining stable control, rendering the enemy immobile, so that your attacks won't miss, right?

With his right hand pressed on the ground, Ye Nanxiao's first soul skill shone, and a huge ice pillar rose from his feet, carrying Ye Nanxiao into the air at high speed.

After escaping Jiang Nannan's gravitational control range, Ye Nanxiao raised his hands, and several ice cages rose from the ground, but he did not manage to catch Jiang Nannan.

Taking advantage of the gap when Ye Nanxiao released his soul skill, Jiang Nannan raised her leg and kicked out several slashing waves.

While dodging, Ye Nanxiao observed Jiang Nannan's situation. To his surprise, Jiang Nannan seemed to use her soul bone very smoothly. He wondered if there was any soft and resilient fabric that could be used to make stockings. It seemed that the silk spun by the Crimson Flame Insects was very soft, tough, and warm.

Just as Ye Nanxiao was distracted thinking about how many pairs of stockings to make, Jiang Nannan rushed up to him and touched his forehead with her small hand.

This made Ye Nanxiao exclaim, "Nannan, you can use it so smoothly right after fusing with the soul bone. My Nannan is indeed a genius."

Hearing Ye Nanxiao's praise, Jiang Nannan was clearly very happy. Like a little girl, she jumped into Ye Nanxiao's arms and said coquettishly, "Right, right? Keep praising me, is there a reward?"

"Yes, of course there's a reward," Ye Nanxiao said, slowly moving closer.

Jiang Nannan stretched out her arms and hugged Ye Nanxiao, then closed her eyes and offered herself to him.

After a deep kiss, Jiang Nannan's face turned red to the roots of her neck. He lightly patted Jiang Nannan's pert buttocks and said, "Okay, time to go to class."

As soon as I arrived at the classroom, I saw Du Weilun standing at the door with an innocent smile.

"No wonder the class was so quiet. I thought my authority had increased again," Ye Nanxiao whispered to Jiang Nannan.

Upon seeing Ye Nanxiao, Du Weilun immediately waved to him and said, "We've been waiting for you. I've already spoken with Teacher Yu Chu. Today, I'll take you to the inner courtyard to meet the Shrek Seven Devils."

Du Weilun rattled off all the questions Ye Nanxiao might ask, leaving Ye Nanxiao speechless. He could only lead Jiang Nannan and follow Du Weilun. Soon they met Bei Bei, Tang Ya, and the other core disciples. The group followed Du Weilun to the inner courtyard.

When they arrived at the martial arts arena reserved for the Shrek Seven Devils in the inner courtyard, several people were already standing there. Among them, Ma Xiaotao, with her red hair, stood out the most. Her waist-length hair was neatly combed into a ponytail, making her look clean and tidy. Wearing her school uniform, she looked dashing and heroic.

She saw Ye Nanxiao too, and immediately the corners of her mouth turned up, revealing a playful smile.

"Looks like today's going to be tough," Ye Nanxiao thought to himself.

To everyone's heartbeat, all the students who appeared before them were wearing blood-red school uniforms, representing the inner academy, and they were lined up in a row, exactly seven people.

A disheveled old man was enjoying himself nearby, holding a chicken leg in one hand and a wine jug in the other.

However, Ye Nanxiao felt that he was locked in by a powerful aura as soon as he entered, and even Xue Di did not dare to come out, shrinking into her spiritual sea.

The other six students beside Ma Xiaotao were four men and two women, all of whom looked to be around the same age as her. They were from the inner courtyard, dressed in red. These were the students who represented the strongest fighting force of Shrek Academy, and it was they who upheld the glory of Shrek Academy as the number one academy on the continent.

Ye Nanxiao and Bei Bei's group walked to the side and stood still. Except for Ye Nanxiao, they were all a little reserved. After all, they were in front of so many powerful seniors, and they could vaguely sense that these seven seniors had another identity.

Du Weilun stood respectfully before the disheveled old man. "Elder Xuan, all the core disciples of the outer academy of the Martial Soul Department have been brought here."

Elder Xuan finished his meal in one gulp, even throwing the chicken bones into his mouth to chew. He casually glanced at Ye Nanxiao and the other three, and said in a deep voice, "You've come. Let's begin."

Duvelen replied respectfully, "Yes."

Sensing Elder Xuan's gaze, everyone felt as if they were being watched by a terrifying being, unable to move. Ye Nanxiao was a little better off, as he possessed the bloodline of a great demon. He took Jiang Nannan's hand with his left hand, and his soul power slowly transferred to Jiang Nannan's body, reducing the pressure on her somewhat.

"Interesting kids," Elder Xuan exclaimed. "Everyone's here. Standing before you are the Shrek Seven Devils of this generation. As core disciples selected from the Freshman Competition, you have the best chance of becoming candidates for the Shrek Seven Devils. Today, I'm letting you meet, firstly to get to know each other, and secondly, to let you familiarize yourselves with each other's abilities."

After saying that, he pulled out a chicken leg with his right hand. "Why don't you introduce yourselves to each other?"

Beibei was the first to step forward. "My name is Beibei, a first-year student in the outer academy, and a level 29 powerful attack-type Soul Master."

Tang Ya then said, "My name is Tang Ya, I am a first-year student, and a level 25 Control-type Soul Master."

When Jiang Nannan stepped forward, the eyes of the men opposite her lit up noticeably. Jiang Nannan was indeed extremely beautiful. Among the girls present, she was definitely the most beautiful in terms of appearance alone. Although Ma Xiaotao and Ling Luochen were also very beautiful, one had a bad temper and the other was aloof.

Ye Nanxiao was inexplicably furious upon seeing this scene.

"My name is Jiang Nannan, a first-year student in the outer academy, and a level 29 agility-type Great Soul Master," Jiang Nannan introduced herself.

With a smile on his face, Ye Nanxiao said, "Ye Nanxiao, first year, level 32 Control System Battle Soul Master."

Annoyed as I am, I'll have to put a sack over my head later.

Lin Susu, chewing on a lollipop, cheerfully said, "Lin Susu, a first-year student, a level 29 Power Attack-type Great Soul Master."

With his thick black hair and dead fish eyes, Shen Ciyuan spoke, "Shen Ciyuan, first year, level 29, a powerful attack-type Soul Master."

Aside from Ye Nanxiao, Shen Ciyuan was the most handsome among the freshmen. He had black hair and black eyes, sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, and although he was somewhat thin, he stood very straight.

Luo Xinyao, who came up next, also had black hair, but her eyes were golden like Jiang Nannan's. Her clear and ethereal voice rang out, "Luo Xinyao, first year, level 28 control-type Great Soul Master."

Lan Yuning has long, flowing blue hair, just like her surname. She is petite, like Lin Susu, with delicate features. "Lan Yuning, first year, level 28 support-type Soul Master."

"He's a support character." Ye Nanxiao noticed a handsome senior from the inner academy staring intently at Lan Yuning.

Gu Xiyu and Mo Xuan are from the same family and are cousins. They are both level 29 powerful attack-type Soul Masters. They are also good-looking and look like a perfect couple when they stand together.

Du Weilen stared at Ye Nanxiao in astonishment, wondering to himself, "This kid's already at the third ring? When did that happen? Is this your reason for refusing the academy's spirit ring reward?"

Elder Xuan glanced at Ye Nanxiao and then continued drinking.

When it was the Shrek Seven Devils' turn to introduce themselves, Ma Xiaotao, who was standing in the middle, took a step forward.

Ma Xiaotao was the first to introduce herself, saying, "Inner Court, Ma Xiaotao, Level 60 Power Attack Type Battle Soul Emperor."

After Ma Xiaotao, a male student stepped forward. He was very tall and looked quite well-matched with the slender Ma Xiaotao. This male student had a calm demeanor and sharp eyes. He said in a deep voice, "Inner Academy, Dai Yueheng, Level 56 Power Attack Type Battle Soul King."

After Dai Yueheng, another male student came up. He was not as strong as Dai Yueheng, but he was also tall and slender. He had a warm smile on his face and said, "Inner Court, Chen Zifeng, Level 47, Power Attack Type Battle Soul Sect."

The fourth person was a female disciple. She looked very ordinary, had an ordinary figure, and short hair. She was just an ordinary young woman.

"Inner Courtyard, Xixi, Level 46 Agility-Attack Type Battle Soul Sect." It was a simple introduction, but she had a way of making little impression. As soon as she finished speaking, she seemed to dim, completely overshadowed by the brilliance of the people in front of her.

The fifth person was also a female student. Ye Nanxiao finally felt a sense of familiarity when he saw Ling Luochen. Compared to Xixi, she was much more beautiful. She had a kind of cool beauty, which was different from Ma Xiaotao's fiery beauty and Jiang Nannan's gentle beauty. Her cool and aloof feeling, like a plum blossom, easily left a deep impression. Her skin was very white, and she seemed to walk without any weight.

"Inner Court, Ling Luochen, Level 45 Control-type Battle Soul Master." In addition to offensive and agile attacks, a control-type Battle Soul Master has finally appeared.

The sixth person was a small male student, who was only about 1.6 meters tall. He was slender and much shorter than Ling Luochen next to him, but his eyes were bright and piercing.

"Inner Court, Yao Haoxuan, Level 45, Control and Support Type Battle Soul Master."

The last inner court disciple was handsome. Yes, handsome. Although he was obviously a male student, he was tall and slender with a face like jade. His handsome appearance had a touch of pitifulness. Even his voice was soft and gentle. "Inner Court, Gongyang Mo, level 49, support-type Battle Soul Sect."

After the introductions were completed, Elder Xuan took a sip of wine and said, "They haven't been Shrek Seven Devils for long. As the candidates for the Seven Devils, I will be your teacher from now on. You can call me Elder Xuan. However, you will have to wait until your third year before I will be in charge of you. Just come to training when you have time. You still need to keep up with the classes. At that time, the girls will follow Ling Luochen and the boys will follow Dai Yueheng."

"Of course, if you don't work hard enough, your reserve status will be taken away, and whether you can become Shrek Seven Devils in the end depends on yourselves."

Elder Xuan nodded slightly and said, "Alright, you have all gotten to know each other briefly. To deepen your impression and let you experience the power of the Shrek Seven Devils, your training task today is a friendly match. You can play solo or in a team, but Xiao Tao, you can only choose two official members."

Ma Xiaotao walked to the center of the martial arts stage and beckoned to Ye Nanxiao. The rest of the Shrek Seven Devils, except for Ling Luochen, were somewhat surprised that Ye Nanxiao was sparring with his junior brother from the outer courtyard right from the start. They silently prayed for Ye Nanxiao.

Ye Nanxiao didn't show any extra expression. He gave Jiang Nannan a reassuring smile, strode to the center of the martial arts stage, and said with a smile, "Senior, please go easy on me."

Before Elder Xuan could even call for the start, six spirit rings appeared on Ma Xiaotao's body: two yellow, one purple, and three black. She looked at Ye Nanxiao with a provocative gaze. Ye Nanxiao smiled slightly, and with the Nine-Tailed Snow Fox possessing him, three spirit rings appeared. Bei Bei and the others didn't know when Ye Nanxiao had acquired a third spirit ring. Only Jiang Nannan seemed to have thought of something and stood silently to the side.

Ye Nanxiao took the initiative, engaging in a battle beyond his level. He was somewhat confident that he could hold out longer before losing to Ma Xiaotao.

By further breaking the seal on the Snow Empress, it was discovered that the Snow Empress's power, intertwined with her own great demon bloodline, could spontaneously generate the most ideal soul ring for Ye Nanxiao. This means that Ye Nanxiao's next soul ring will be the one with the most ideal age and quality, and the one with the most ideal soul skill.

"Having a cheat code is really great," Ye Nanxiao couldn't help but sigh.

"Flock of Birds and Ice Pillars." Ye Nanxiao's first soul ring shone, and a large number of shattered ice pillars rushed towards Ma Xiaotao.

Ma Xiaotao's lips curled into a smile as she shouted, "Phoenix Reborn from the Ashes!" Flames engulfed her entire body, and the power of the phoenix fire enhanced all her attributes. "Phoenix Fire Line!" She spat out a straight column of fire from her mouth, a three-meter-diameter pillar that instantly shattered the ice pillars of the flock of birds.

After finding a breakthrough, Ma Xiaotao rushed straight towards Ye Nanxiao.

Ye Nanxiao did not use too much soul power in this attack, only 30% of his usual soul power, in order to allow Ma Xiaotao to break through head-on.

The high temperature melted a large area of ​​broken ice pillars, creating a lot of water mist on the field. Ma Xiaotao used the speed boost brought by her second soul skill to rush in front of Ye Nanxiao in an instant. However, Ye Nanxiao was not afraid at all and smiled faintly with his arms crossed.

"Look down on me?" Ma Xiaotao raised an eyebrow, a cross appeared on her forehead, and her fist, carrying the flames of a phoenix, slammed into Ye Nanxiao.

The crowd outside the arena gasped in surprise, except for Jiang Nannan.

Ma Xiaotao noticed that the feedback from the fist was obviously wrong, and "Ye Nanxiao" in front of her opened his arms and hugged Ma Xiaotao.
