The skeletons who had passed through the water in the artificial lake of the 10,000-year-old cold spring on the half-plane of the undead, and whose physical fitness had been refreshed, were wrapped in heavy winter clothes, and after receiving Huo Yuhao's letter one by one, they were walking like flying on the flat ground.

When they reach a cooler area near the Far North, their bodies that have been specially tempered and strengthened for the ice attribute will make them much faster than ordinary soul masters.

The skeletons wrapped in tight winter coats walked their own way, and as long as they didn't get up close to look at them, they were almost completely indistinguishable from normal humans on the road.

"Have a nice trip~"

Huo Yuhao waved his hand, looking as if he was sending the students to the head teacher of the examination room.

This is destined to be a sleepless night, except that Nangong Wan can't sleep because of excitement and apprehension, and Xu Tianran can't sleep because of anxiety......

And the masters!

After Wang Dong'er, who successfully took pictures of the legendary gossip of the Eyes of Ice and Fire, returned to the hotel, he marked the area where the legendary Eyes of Ice and Fire were hidden on the map according to the guidelines.

These 800,000 gold soul coins are really worth spent, and there is even a top-secret gossip that "the eyes of ice and fire are protected by poisonous barriers, and it is best to protect the body with extreme purity"!

Is this difficult for Miss Wang Dong'er?

Didn't Haotian Sect still have a Xuanbing chalcedony bed that had been thrown in the guest room and was useless? What are you doing with the ashes?

Haotian Sect has raised it for so long, it's time for it to sacrifice itself bravely, and sooner or later it will be chiseled!

Wang Dong'er wondered what kind of fairy grass was more suitable for her, but some people couldn't laugh.

"Alas......"

In the women's dormitory of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, Xiao Xiao, who was visiting Ling Luochen's room, was lying in a swivel chair in his pajamas, his face was full of sadness, and there was a faint sense of grievance in his eyes, and he didn't show any happiness at all.

And Ling Luochen, who had not yet come out of the frustration of being hit hard by Su Tong, shrunk in the corner of the bed with the quilt, and the expression on his face was a little uglier than Xiao Xiao's.

Tonight, they and a group of Shrek exchange students were summoned by Mr. Fan Yu to the exclusive box on the top floor of a nearby luxury restaurant.

Teacher Fan Yu actually invited guests in such a luxurious restaurant, which really surprised and delighted the exchange students - originally only Wang Donger would organize dinners to eat, drink and brag every week, but I didn't expect Teacher Fan Yu to be on the road now!

However, when the exchange students rushed to the restaurant and ordered the food, Teacher Fan Yu, who had been very kind to them, closed the door of the box tightly after serving the dishes, and then gave a deep salute to everyone!

"I'm sorry, but due to the huge changes in the objective situation in Mingdu, the college has to make urgent adjustments to everyone's exchange study plan."

"This may have a certain impact on everyone's personal academic and development arrangements, and the teacher is here to compensate you first."

Fan Yu, who had been a craftsman again, looked ashamed and informed the anxious students of the latest notice issued by the Poseidon Pavilion that "except for soul guide students, all exchange students must submit an application for internship in the Soul Hall and actively learn spells and other processes".

Such a notice can only be dictated and not printed on paper, and after listening to Teacher Fan Yu state the specific orders of the academy one by one, the exchange students couldn't help but look at each other.

The sources of exchange students are very diverse, there are young ladies like Ning Tian who want to go back for the sect wherever they go, and there are also pure scattered people who are destined to be at the bottom of the grade for a long time because they know that their martial souls are inferior.

The invention of the soul that opened the door to a new world in this way, under the bombardment of high-intensity discussions among classmates, naturally fell into their sight, and the most important thing for students who can sign up to study in a foreign country thousands of miles away is courage and curiosity.

Shrek Academy's common sense education allows them to discern at a glance the benefits that souls can bring to organizations, countries and individuals, but even if they know the new opportunities brought by souls, no one's mind will be liberated to go directly to the relationship like Ning Tian to intern.

I didn't expect ...... The college directly urged them to change careers to "actively learn core technologies" and "return to serve the college and the motherland", which seems to be more anxious than ourselves.

"Please rest assured, no matter how much the academy does, it will not harm its students. When everyone returns to school, there will be a series of promising positions in the Tang Sect and the Martial Soul Department waiting for you; As the first person to come into contact with the work of learning souls, you will get a much brighter future than learning soul guides and transforming soul guides! ”

Tang Gate ...... What kind of bullshit is this? But it sounds like the academy has a very strong intention to steal the soul of the teacher?

The exchange students of the Martial Soul Department had different reactions under the patient explanation of Teacher Fan Yu, but the exchange students of the Soul Guide Department were relatively uniform.

Why does the academy only ask the students of the Martial Soul Department to steal the teacher? We are not stupid, and we can also see that the fledgling soul is no less than learning the soul guide service academy, why is everyone blocked out of the door and can only continue to concentrate on learning the soul guide?

Of course, there are many students who really love the soul guide and have invested too much energy in this area, and the sunk cost makes it impossible to turn back, for this kind of high-purity student, the soul guide department is glad that he can continue to learn the career he loves, and the martial soul department is dissatisfied with why he was forcibly transferred.

The latter must be relatively few, because the difficulty of the martial soul department to the soul guide system can almost be said to be negative in Shrek Academy, and those who really love the soul guide should have changed departments long ago unless they wanted to retain the treatment of the martial soul department.

Regardless of what everyone thinks, since the academy has given the order, let's carry it out - it is not guilty of risking expulsion and the academy for this matter.

Xiao Xiao, who ran to Ling Luochen's room in the middle of the night to complain, also had the helplessness and grievances in his heart come from this.

Objectively speaking, the Academy's command to change their direction of study and strive to get in touch with spirits and learn technology is not a bad choice for them personally, but ......

"Sure enough, when the will of the academy begins to turn, the personal wishes and future of our students don't matter at all......" Xiao Xiao looked through the window at the street lamps on the campus that only had a glimmer of light, and his voice was dazed and melancholy.

Ling Luochen lowered his head and covered the lower half of his face with a quilt: "Shouldn't this be something that you have been mentally prepared for?" ”

"Why we're here...... It's because the academy needs talents in soul guides. ”

"Now that the academy has found something that interests them more than the soul guide, it's only natural to suggest that we change our study direction. We were originally sent to meet the needs of the college, and the development of the college was ahead of the future of the students. ”

"After all, we have been eating the academy's food from the beginning, and we naturally have to dance with the baton of the Poseidon Pavilion with soft hands, and it seems that the choice given by the academy is not bad, it is a win-win choice for us personally and the academy, isn't it?"

"But, but ......" Xiao Xiao covered his mouth, and his voice was a little choked.

"It's not the same as it was said at the beginning! We are already on the right track in our lives and studies, so why do we ...... at this time?"

"Can't we go through these three years in peace, and then let other students recruited to carry out the tasks of the academy?"

Ling Luochen pondered for a moment, looked at Xiao Xiao's eyes full of complicated eyes, and said seriously: "We are basically the only ones who are willing to go thousands of miles to Mingdu, and we can't draw too much from the requisition; If you don't want to, I'm sure the academy won't force you either. ”

"And...... There's no need for you to reject the Academy's arrangement. ”

Xiao Xiao in the recliner closed his eyes, and after a long time, he slowly said to Ling Luochen:

"I ...... has never been a very assertive girl. ”

"Whether it's a soul guide or a soul, I don't really care, I don't have a fanatical love like the night senior; For me, it doesn't make much difference to do anything, I just wanted to become an excellent and powerful soul master at the beginning, to give my family a better life, so that my family can have the capital to further their status. ”

"When I signed up for the exchange, I didn't even know a lot of first-year knowledge in this college; I just avoided facing Wang Dong, and I wanted to see what the charm of the soul guide that could be admired by Mu Lao was and how helpful it was to me. ”

"Yes, Sister Luochen, you're right, whether I continue to study soul guides or work hard to drill the new favorite souls of the teachers, I will be the treasure of the academy when I return to the academy."

Xiao Xiao's head was buried lower, and a little self-deprecating expression appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"I'm a rare twin martial soul in the world, I was so stupid and cute at the beginning, I even attached a hundred-year soul ring to the precious second martial soul early...... And for the sake of a core disciple place, he fought desperately. ”

Ling Luochen looked at Xiao Xiao, who was dressed in pajamas, and realized that this girl had not only grown physically in the past two years, but also seemed to have gradually entered the world of adults mentally when she had not noticed.

"Sister Luochen, you know...... Huo Yuhao, the hall master of the Soul Palace, who was asked by the academy to find ways to get close to and obtain information, did he personally prescribe what conditions to me at the beginning? ”

Hearing the words "Huo Yuhao", Ling Luochen suddenly felt a tremor in his heart, and asked with a twelve-point caution: "What?" ”

He said...... "Xiao Xiao's eyes have been covered with a layer of moisture.

"If I am willing to complete my studies here and settle down in Mingde Hall, I don't have to worry about anything, just cultivate by my hobby, there will be no assessments and obstacles, they will provide all the resources and rich subsidies needed for cultivation, so that I can cultivate to the Nine Rings with peace of mind, and customize the most suitable soul guide for me, and when I enter the Nine Rings, let Jing Hongchen personally sponsor me to enter the Offering Hall."

"It's just that they really can't guarantee a 100,000-year soul ring, after all, the 100,000-year soul ring on the surface of the entire Sun and Moon Empire may not have two hands."

Ling Luochen couldn't help but be a little stunned when he heard it, with Huo Yuhao, that guy was attacking everywhere, flowering more, and waving his hoe all over the sky?

Just need to settle down, without any assessment and obstacles, and provide all the resources you need to get to the Ninth Ring Road? How does this seem to be better than my own conditions! I'm the Shrek Seven Monsters, even if Xiao Xiao is a twin martial spirit, this is a little ......

"There are no assessments...... I don't need a twin martial soul like me to prove my worth by fighting and competing, I don't need to go through many tests to be rewarded and promoted to the inner court, I don't need to perform thirty monitoring missions to fight the evil soul teacher and student to graduate, I don't need to ...... After many hardships and dangers, it can become an alternative to the Poseidon Pavilion. ”

"When I left home, I realized that I could sell it for such a good price...... It's ironic...... Even if I know there's a premium for me as a Shrek student, so what? That guy is right, I'm a twin martial spirit, and I shouldn't be treated equally! ”

Xiao Xiao's tone was choked, and he cried and laughed and said:

"I've been a good girl for more than ten years, and when I was thousands of miles away from home, I was instigated to be owed too much because I didn't know how to cause trouble to others, but sadly I wanted to refute him but didn't know where to start, I wanted, how could I not desire to be valued and cherished?"

"I always thought I was valued enough by the academy and the teachers, however...... Alas......"

"I told him that it was because of such fair competition that Shrek had the glory of inheriting for thousands of years; But he told me not to have too much empathy and bring one of my outer court disciples into the position of the Seagod Pavilion Lord until my demands were satisfied, I am not worthy of it, ha......"

Ling Luochen listened to Xiao Xiao's emotional story, and while thinking about his contract that had been changed, his heart couldn't help but be confused.

"Xiao Xiao, then you ...... Are we dissatisfied with the Academy's order to do our best to convert souls? ”

Xiao Xiao shook his head lightly: "I said, even if it's a few days, I'm still not so assertive, and I may even be a little weak." Studying in a different direction is nothing to me. But Sister Luochen, don't say that you don't understand what the academy doesn't say explicitly, but actually wants us to do......"

"They, in the end, are going to put a few cabbage heads in prison! I've just learned a lot about it, and I've never wanted to be a spy! ”

Tears couldn't stop sliding from the corners of Xiao Xiao's eyes, and to this day, every time I think of the scene when I look at her helplessly through the bars with Caitou, the feeling of heartbreak will unstoppably gush out.

"Sister Luochen, do you understand, the current me is no different from me who wanted to escape Wang Dong at the beginning, obviously envious of the courage and self-confidence of others, but I can't help but doubt whether I am qualified to have them!"

Ling Luochen was silent for a long time, and finally raised his head and explained:

"The entanglement between you and Wang Dong at the beginning should have dissipated long ago today, right?"

"yes...... I didn't expect to see her again in Mingdu, and I can see her talking and laughing and behaving every week. I have long let go of that little ridiculous love for children. ”

"So, why not go and see her? Isn't the courage and self-confidence you envy, as well as the personality to live for yourself and dare to act, all in her? ”

Xiao Xiao couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then nodded lightly.

It is no secret that Wang Dong has taken a long-term leave of absence, and even in a foreign country in the Ming capital, he has a greater fame than Ning Tian, who is the most sociable among them exchange students—even if this fame is sprinkled with coins.

"But...... I still have my family, and I have been trying to give them a better life since the first day of school, and I can't just take care of myself......"

"Xiao Xiao." Ling Luochen suddenly interrupted, "My friend in the inner courtyard has received news that the Heavenly Soul Empire is forming a soul master support team to prepare to shift its energy from the front to the guerrilla...... The academy has also increased the intensity and frequency of recruiting students from the inner courtyard to carry out the task of supervising and purging evil soul masters. ”

"As for the goal...... What you understand is the western region of the Heavenly Soul Empire, the place where countless soul masters have changed their color and there is no return. ”

"You are not alone, but your family has put all their hopes in you, and they cannot afford to lose you. What the academy and the Heavenly Soul Empire have disclosed to the students of the Outer Courtyard and most of the Inner Courtyard is that it is certain that there are at least two Evil Soul Masters Titled Douluo in charge. ”

"You...... The evil soul master of the five rings has made my Shrek Seven Monsters suffer heavy losses, and when you return from your studies, are you ready to go to the Western Xinjiang to carry out thirty monitoring missions? ”

Xiao Xiao's little face turned pale for a moment, and he immediately shook his head again and again, but after a long time, he looked at Ling Luochen's eyes and nodded seriously.

The next day, Xiao Xiao took the initiative to ask Wang Donger to go to the food street at the entrance of the college for the first time.

Wang Dong'er, who was overjoyed, first went back to the hotel to carefully pack up and put on makeup for an hour, and then appeared at the place agreed by the two at noon a quarter of an hour in advance.

"Winter ...... Dong'er. ”

Looking at Wang Dong'er, who took a golden soul coin to the cashier of the store, Xiao Xiao said softly with a slight lack of confidence.

"Huh? What? ”

Wang Dong'er's eyes focused on the shopkeeper's action of fishing the finished product from the oil pot and preparing to splash the sauce and seasoning.

"Why did you take a leave of absence in the first place? Obviously, the academy has the best resources and cultivation opportunities, right? ”

"Hey, there are so many whys. I think Mingdu is more prosperous than Shrek, so it's worth staying for a few more days. And I'm the young master of Haotian Sect, what if I leave the academy? What resources will I lack in my capacity? I'm having a great time now, and that's enough. ”

The snack bar owner handed the two snacks to Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao, and then returned to his seat in the shade to continue reading his second-level soul master exam book.

"I don't owe anything to the academy, I can take a break if I want, I can retire if I want to, I can retire if I want to be a few hundred years at most, if you want to be transparent and happy, you must first please yourself before considering others! Come and eat! ”

Wang Dong'er raised the paper bag in his hand and bumped his fist with Xiao Xiao.

"Hmm~ The doughnuts are so delicious~ Hahaha~"

Looking at Wang Dong'er's pursed mouth and licking the syrup, with a satisfied and happy look, Xiao Xiao suddenly felt that he had a lot of doubts in his heart, and it seemed that there was no need to ask them anymore, they were all together with the confusion that had lingered in his mind for a long time, and went to a place that could never be recovered.

"Hmm......" Xiao Xiao chuckled and bit down on the thickest part of the syrup.

"The doughnuts are delicious."
