Douluo: Not enough blood? Use your brain

After resting for a full two hours in the distance, Xu Yuan and the others had fully recovered.

“Let’s go, it’s time to explore this place.”

Staying in the same place wouldn't solve anything.

Just as the three were about to move, two waves of soul power fluctuations appeared in their perception.

Strangely, despite such powerful soul power fluctuations, the three of them unanimously decided to investigate.

Arriving at a valley, the three carefully observed the situation inside from outside.

“Two powerful soul beasts are fighting. According to my understanding, one of them is a Darkgold Terrorclaw Bear. The aura it emits is terrifying. I don’t know if it's ten thousand years or a thousand years, but I'm more inclined to think it's a thousand years. After all, a ten-thousand-year Darkgold Terrorclaw Bear is comparable to a hundred-thousand-year soul beast, and its destructive power should be stronger than what we see before us.”

A thousand years, but definitely not just a thousand years.

Xu Yuan was focused on the other soul beast.

“Emperor Rui Beast, Three-Eyed Golden Lion!”

Xu Lizhi and Ye Xinglan were shocked.

They didn't expect that the two sides fighting below were such rare and powerful soul beasts, and that the Emperor Rui Beast was a legendary soul beast.

The three of them observed for a full hour. The two super soul beasts seemed to have a deep-seated hatred for each other, fighting to the death, and ultimately perishing together.

They arrived next to the corpses of the two super soul beasts.

“Soul bone!”

Xu Yuan's eyes narrowed as he looked at the Darkgold Terrorclaw Bear's right claw.

Xu Lizhi and Ye Xinglan were also breathing rapidly.

Because Wang Hao had told them before they came in that this place was similar to the previous beast fighting arena and soul fighting arena, but with differences. The soul beasts inside were real. If they needed soul rings, they could directly absorb the soul rings of the soul beasts inside. Even if a soul bone dropped, they could absorb and integrate it.

Everything could be taken out!

On the right claw, this was clearly not one of the regular six soul bones, but an external soul bone!

The three of them breathed even more rapidly.

Xu Yuan calmed down and said to the two, “Don’t rush, let’s assess the situation first.”

He also had the idea of seizing this soul bone, but he also felt that there was something inappropriate, since this was an assessment after all.

“The probability of special super soul beasts like the Darkgold Terrorclaw Bear and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion leaving behind soul bones after death is extremely high. Most of the Darkgold Terrorclaw Bears produce Darkgold Terrorclaws, and for the Three-Eyed Golden Lion...”

Xu Yuan looked at the head of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.

He stabbed down with the Heavenly Origin Spear.

A wisp of rose-gold light bloomed.

There was one!

“Two soul bones, there are three of us, how do we divide them?” Xu Lizhi looked at Xu Yuan.

Among the three of them, Xu Yuan was the strongest, so the distribution actually depended on what Xu Yuan said.

Ye Xinglan couldn't beat Xu Yuan. Although they hadn't fought, the seventh and eighth trials before had made Xu Lizhi very clear about this.

If Xu Yuan wanted to take both soul bones for himself, they wouldn't agree.

Xu Yuan frowned and pondered for a long time.

“I can forgo the Darkgold Terrorclaw Bear's soul bone. The Three-Eyed Golden Lion's head bone is mine.”

Ye Xinglan and Xu Lizhi breathed a sigh of relief.

They were most afraid of Xu Yuan taking both soul bones for himself.

“The fusion requirements for the Darkgold Terrorclaw are frighteningly high. I estimate you won't be able to fuse it before level fifty,” Xu Yuan thought to himself.

As for the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's head bone, the effect is the best.

Unconsciously, Xu Yuan was induced to ignore many memories, and he also believed Wang Hao's previous words to be true. The unreasonable logic in it was also subconsciously considered reasonable by him.

Truthfully, the Darkgold Terrorclaw didn't fit Xu Yuan's planning for his own combat system.

Even if he took it, he wouldn't absorb it himself, and there was no way to absorb it in the short term.

It would be better to give the soul bone to Ye Xinglan and the others. These two were not weak in talent. In the original work, they were also part of this generation's Shrek Seven Monsters, and could be used as Xu Yuan's core team in the future.

Are there any brothers who think this is stupid, or who are wondering if the protagonist shouldn't know the truth?

Wasn't this foreshadowed earlier?

This kind of assessment, Shrek must have used it more than once. The Spirit Transfer Pagoda, the Hall of Heroes, or those with Titled Douluos in their families, must all know, right? They would explain it clearly to their descendants in advance. What kind of human nature can you see?

So there must be an illusion technique to ensure that those who know everything will temporarily not think of it, and can also guide them to believe that the soul bones inside can be taken out.

I personally think this is more reasonable.

Chapter 37 Conspiracy Theory?

Fortunately, Shrek is going to be destroyed anyway. Since this is the case, then this generation of Shrek Seven Monsters is Xu Yuan's best choice for his core team.

Stop all of this?

In the face of true great power, you can't stop it.

Even so-called advance notice to Yun Ming would only cause other troubles. It is impossible to help Shrek avoid the Godslaying Missile attack.

Because Xu Yuan is not sure whether there is the promotion of the Lord of the Plane behind this matter.

The Lord of the Plane seized the body, but what about Ah Yin?

Rather than saying seizure, it is better to say that the Lord of the Plane, Tang Hao, is usurping the position of the Lord of the Plane. Originally, the Douluo Plane did not have a Plane Spirit or a Lord of the Plane.

On the contrary, Ah Yin, that was a real seizure, seizing the Golden Ancient Tree.

This is likely to be incompatible, so she needs to be reborn.

The old Golden Ancient Tree is destroyed, and a new Tree of Life is born, using the Blue Silver Emperor's endless ability to condense a seed, and completely condense a Plane Core Tree of Life that belongs to her. Why can't this also be a plan?

Xu Yuan speculated about these things with his own thoughts, and could only make groundless guesses, unable to verify them.

He could only bury them in his heart.

Before becoming strong, do not touch these things.

Guide the situation to his advantage, this is what he should do.

Since Shrek is destined to perish, then why can't the rebuilt Shrek be used by me?

Who said Shrek belongs to Tang San?

Of course, there are still many places that need to be verified in this plan.

For example, the extent to which the Lord of the Plane can participate, what level has he recovered to now, and how conscious is he.

As for how to probe these things, Xu Yuan currently doesn't have a good answer.

Back to the main topic.

Inside the valley.

Out of his own ambition, Xu Yuan gave the Darkgolden Terrorclaw to Ye Xinglan and Xu Lizhi, avoiding conflict.

Xu Lizhi looked at the Darkgolden Terrorclaw without hesitation and said directly, "Give it to Sister Xinglan, I'm just a food-type soul master."

Ye Xinglan shook her head.

"The Darkgolden Terrorclaw isn't suitable for me. Everything I have is on the Star God Sword. It's better for Lizhi to absorb it. Precisely because he's a food-type soul master, he needs this soul bone even more."

Xu Yuan touched the Skull of Destiny and was about to try to fuse with it when the surrounding illusion suddenly disappeared.

Xu Yuan recalled the details of this trial without much surprise. Xu Lizhi and Ye Xinglan were the same. After a moment of daze, they returned to normal.

All three knew the content of the assessment.

However, during the assessment, they seemed to have forgotten the details, as if their intelligence had been reduced. They were induced to attach great importance to the setting that soul rings and soul bones from this assessment could be taken out. As for the memories related to the truth of this assessment that they knew in advance, they were all blurred, and they were also guided not to think about it.

A brilliant illusion technique.

Xu Yuan was certain that Shrek Academy must have a Limit Douluo who was proficient in illusion techniques to be able to perfect such a powerful illusion method.

"Your performances were acceptable, but Xu Yuan, why didn't you take both soul bones for yourself?" Cai Yue'er looked at Xu Yuan with considerable curiosity. "With your strength, you should have been able to do it."

Are they all soul masters?

Based on the combat power that Xu Yuan displayed, he definitely could have taken down Ye Xinglan.

Even for the sake of the assessment, he could have avoided killing her. If Xu Yuan, under the influence of the illusion, could have considered this step, he would have also been guided to consider the point that 'with my uncle's connections, even if I don't make a good impression on the assessment teacher in this trial, I can still enter Shrek'.

Two great soul bones—who wouldn't want to possess them exclusively?

Moreover, the two beside him were just potential future classmates he had just met?

Faced with Cai Yue'er's doubts, Xu Yuan generously said, "The Darkgolden Terrorclaw isn't suitable for me, and even if I gave it to them, it doesn't necessarily mean I'm giving it to outsiders."

"Oh?" Cai Yue'er's eyes flickered as she looked at Xu Yuan, understanding his thoughts.

But, your uncle is a Spirit Transfer Envoy...

It wouldn't be a problem for the two of them to enter the next list of Shrek Seven Monsters, but what about you?

Although she thought of this, she didn't continue to ask.

This Xu Yuan is interesting.

"You aren't a real team, and you didn't have any emotional foundation before. Being able to do this, Xu Yuan, you get full marks."

If they were teammates who had been together for a long time, Xu Yuan's approach would at most be considered passable, but the relationship between the three was obviously unfamiliar. Even if they had gone through several assessments together before, they were still not strangers, but they still didn't have any emotional foundation.

On the contrary, being able to invest for future goals shows great ambition. Such personal charm alone is enough for a full score.

"Xu Lizhi and Ye Xinglan also get full marks."

Just a seven-year-old kid, their performance is already satisfactory.

A pure and kind nature is enough.

Next is to give them the green light to enter the inner courtyard.

Cai Yue'er is very familiar with this.

As for playing the villain to anger the examinees?

Cai Yue'er is the Dean of the Outer Courtyard. Doing so in the Outer Courtyard assessment is fine, but doing so in front of the children who are about to enter the Inner Courtyard is completely unnecessary.

"Let's go. Next is the final exam, where the examiners will evaluate and give scores." Cai Yue'er took over the task from Wang Hao and others, and directly led Xu Yuan and the others to the final room.

At this moment, in this final examination room, two elders were already sitting on either side of the three examiners' seats, leaving a seat in the middle.

Cai Yue'er stepped forward, sat in the middle seat, and looked at Xu Yuan and the others.

"This is the final trial. The three of us will comment on your previous nine trials and give scores."

"First of all, Xu Yuan, your performance is impeccable. To be able to cultivate to this level in just one year after awakening your martial soul, and your spearmanship and elemental control are so outstanding, your combat talent is also extremely high. In addition, you got full marks in the previous nine trials, so I won't hold back your score. This final trial gives you full marks."

"Agreed." × 2

"In Shrek Academy's assessment, whether it's the Outer Courtyard assessment or the Inner Courtyard assessment, examinees who can get full marks in all trials can make a request to the Sea God Pavilion. As long as it's reasonable, we can satisfy you." Cai Yue'er looked at Xu Yuan and said, "Think about what request you want to make first."

"Of course, although you got full marks, there are some problems I still need to talk about. Don't bite off more than you can chew. Your learning talent is very strong, but you're cultivating too many things at the same time, too miscellaneous. I still suggest that you streamline your cultivation in the future and choose one or two to cultivate."

Xu Yue'er's tone changed, giving Xu Yuan the final suggestion.

Xu Yuan nodded, but he didn't show any intention to change.

Cai Yue'er sighed and looked at Xu Lizhi and Ye Xinglan to comment.

In the tenth trial, Xu Yuan got full marks, Ye Xinglan got nine points, and Xu Lizhi got full marks. Cai Yue'er mentioned the young age of the three several times.

And in terms of total score, Xu Yuan got a perfect score of one hundred, Ye Xinglan got eighty-six points, and Xu Lizhi got eighty-five points.

All three of them entered the inner courtyard and became students of the inner courtyard.

After the comments, Cai Yue'er looked at Xu Yuan.

"How is it? Have you thought about what you need?"
