Soul Land: I Became the Pope from the Beginning

Chapter 75: The Gradually Expanding Shrek Academy

In the Suo Tuo City Soul Fighting Arena, it was already three months later.

In the lounge, the members of Shrek Academy had high morale on their faces, without any of the frustration from being suppressed by Qian Renchuan in the past few months.

"Haha, our Shrek Six Monsters are too strong."

One-Eyed Fire Chicken Ma Hongjun patted his big belly, saying proudly.

In recent days, their Shrek Academy had won many battles and had not lost once. Compared to them, other teams were like chickens and dogs.

"Okay, Fatty, don't be too proud. After all, many opponents are still waiting for us to challenge."

Although Tang San tried his best to hide his inner excitement, the smile on his lips betrayed him.

He, Tang San, had finally broken free from years of suppression, and his good days were finally approaching.

Every time he thought of this, Tang San became excited, tears filling his eyes. It was too painful—being suppressed by Qian Renchuan year after year, with no one to stand this for six years. If it weren't for his will as a God King, he would probably have been suppressed like a dog.

"Hehe, it's not Fatty's fault. How about we go out and have a good meal today?"

Dai Mubai smiled, finally feeling the thrill of dominating the world again. This was the life he should have as a god of war.

However, Zhu Zhuqing was still very cold towards him, and their relationship warming up seemed much slower than in his previous life. But Dai Mubai didn't care at all; once he became stronger, Zhu Zhuqing would obediently return to his side.

She was just a woman who admired strength. If it weren't for their ability to perform a Martial Soul Fusion Technique, and her good figure and looks, he wouldn't bother with her.

After all, he was a war god—there was no woman he couldn't get.

"Okay, then I'll rely on Boss Dai to treat us today."

Oscar's eyes lit up. It would be good to have a meal, and it might be a good opportunity to cultivate feelings with Ning Rongrong.

Since Ning Rongrong entered Shrek Academy, he had been coveting her body.

"Okay, let's go."

Just as the Shrek team was about to head out, they saw Yu Xiaogang with a stern face—as if his horse had died. He looked at the excited group with dead fish eyes and said lightly:

"Just a few small victories, and you're already arrogant and complacent. You're just like those small teams, completely lacking the appearance of a monster."

After hearing Yu Xiaogang's words, the faces of the Shrek members suddenly fell, and they looked a little unhappy. After so many battles, they still couldn't relax. Why was this useless person so troublesome?

"Take a look at your opponent's information tonight."

As he spoke, Yu Xiaogang placed an information sheet on the table, letting the Shrek team take a good look.

"This time, your opponent is the Fierce God Team. They are all Soul Ancestors, more than ten levels higher than you. Do you still want to relax now?"

"What, all Soul Ancestors!"

Looking at the information about the Fierce God Team, the hearts of all the Shrek Six Monsters except Tang San and Dai Mubai sank. How could they fight them? Were they going to fight with their heads?

However, Tang San and Dai Mubai exchanged smiles and nodded at each other. Then Tang San stood up confidently and said, "Teacher, I have a way to win against this Fierce God Team."

"Oh? What is it?"

Yu Xiaogang knew his apprentice had some skill and was quite confident in Tang San, so he asked.

"Teacher, please have a look."

Tang San took out the Godly Zhuge Crossbow and handed it to Yu Xiaogang for inspection.

"Isn't this the Godly Zhuge Crossbow sold by the Spirit Hall? This thing is useless against the Soul Ancestor."

Yu Xiaogang frowned naturally when he saw the Godly Zhuge Crossbow Tang San had brought out. He had used this weapon before, but it could only pose a threat to a level 20 Soul Grandmaster.

"Teacher, this Godly Zhuge Crossbow is a complete version, and it can also cause damage to unprepared Soul Kings."

When Tang San heard that this weapon was invented by the Spirit Hall, a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes. This was created by him—the founder of the Douluo Tang Sect.

"Oh, it's so magical?"

Yu Xiaogang looked surprised as he took the Godly Zhuge Crossbow, along with a steel plate from his storage soul guidance device, and shot it at the plate.

Boom! 

With a clear sound, the steel plate was pierced with countless small holes. Yu Xiaogang was even more shocked—this thing posed a threat to the Soul King.

"Well, there's no rule in the Soul Fighting Arena that weapons cannot be used. We can exploit this loophole."

A gleam of "wisdom" flashed in Yu Xiaogang's eyes. To him, this was just using the rules—no cheating.

"Tang San, do you have a blueprint for this weapon?"

Ning Rongrong, seeing the improved Godly Zhuge Crossbow, immediately thought of buying the blueprint.

After all, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect was an auxiliary sect with no means of attack. Even if they had protectors outside, it would be very dangerous. This kind of weapon made up for the shortcomings of their Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda.

"I'm afraid that won't work, but I plan to set up a sect to sell these weapons when I have the chance. If you need them, I can give you a discount."

Tang San smiled faintly and then handed a Godly Zhuge Crossbow to each of the others. He had already added an anti-disassembly device to it, so it would be scrapped if disassembled. He wasn't worried that Ning Rongrong would ask the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect to disassemble it.

"Okay."

Ning Rongrong sighed with some regret, but she was still planning to tell her father about it to see if she could negotiate.

"Brother San, you're going to establish a sect?"

At this moment, Ma Hongjun, who was now fully convinced by Tang San, immediately called him brother. After all, Tang San and Dai Mubai were brothers, so it didn't matter if he called him Brother San.

"Yes, I'm going to establish a sect called Tang Sect, and I'll make it the most powerful force on the continent."

Tang San said ambitiously. Why was he so confident? Because in his previous life, he successfully kept the Tang Sect alive for tens of thousands of years, and it has thrived ever since.

"Okay, Brother San, how about I join your sect?"

Ma Hongjun said, clearly eager. He saw that Tang San had great talent—at least better than him, who had a martial soul defect.

"Of course. If you join, I'll give you the position of elder."

Tang San replied kindly.

"Then I, Dai Mubai, must be the first to join."

Dai Mubai knew how powerful Tang San would become in the future and he wanted to join the Tang Sect. Maybe he could go further after becoming a god.

"I already have a sect, so I won't be joining."

Although Ning Rongrong was brainwashed by Shrek and was somewhat tempted, it was not yet that time, but she already considered Shrek her second home.

"I'll join."

Oscar, excited, also expressed his intent. Dai Mubai had joined, so he couldn't fall behind.

In the end, only Zhu Zhuqing hesitated.

Looking at Tang San, Zhu Zhuqing shyly refused: "Sorry, I have no intention of joining any force."

Hearing her refusal, Tang San's eyes flickered with displeasure. Originally, Zhu Zhuqing wasn't qualified to become a god. If it weren't for the immortal herb he gave her, she would still be stuck in Soul Douluo. Now she was so ungrateful.
