Douluo Continent: Starting with a Tom Cat

Page 108

Oslo was greatly alarmed. Without the slightest hesitation, disregarding the loss of his soul power, his three soul rings shone brightly one after another.

With the support of his soul power and soul skills, Oslo barely managed to see the trajectory of Zhu Zhuqing's attack.

He let out a roar and decisively engaged the enemy in direct combat.

The spirit cat-type martial soul has more speed than strength, and she has used the teleportation soul skill one after another, so her soul power must have been greatly depleted. She definitely wouldn't dare to fight me head-on.

So what if someone is faster than me? As long as I regain the rhythm of the battle, victory will still be mine.

The two running figures suddenly clashed, Zhu Zhuqing's sharp claws and Oslo's leopard claws collided in mid-air.

Meng Shenji and the others frowned. Zhu Zhuqing's choice wasn't good. How could a cat-type martial soul compare in strength to a leopard-type martial soul?

The best approach is to rely on one's own speed to maneuver and gradually achieve victory by leveraging the sharpness of the claws.

But the next second, a muffled groan rang out, and Oslo collapsed instantly upon contact, flying out horizontally.

Oslo, who had fallen to the ground like a burst balloon, was completely stunned. Was that a cat's paw? It was clearly a tiger's paw!

He was caught off guard and didn't use his martial soul when facing Ning Rongrong, which is why he was knocked away.

But when facing Zhu Zhuqing, he had already used all his skills, and his soul power was not even at its maximum level. Even so, he was still knocked away.

Are you a speed-attack type Soul Master or a power-attack type Soul Master? This level of power is almost on par with Yu Tianheng, a Soul Master!

At this moment, Meng Shenji also excitedly came to Zhu Zhuqing's side, looking at Zhu Zhuqing with burning eyes.

"You absolutely must join Team Tiandou."

Oslo lying on the ground...

Chapter 199 Peppa Pig Tattoo on the Sword

"Hehe! Shen An, Zhu Qing and I can both get into the Tian Dou team, so you don't have to worry about us not being able to get in and having to settle for the second team."

Ning Rongrong turned to Shen An and said with a grin.

Shen An fell silent. There's a saying that goes something like this: the most deadly thing is the unintentional overthinking.

He only wanted to join the second team because the second team had a higher playing rate. A victory with one god leading six dogs would be a big enough gimmick to gain more fame.

Unexpectedly, Ning Rongrong thought that she was unwilling to join the team because she was worried about the two of them.

This made Shen An too embarrassed to explain.

However, gaining fame is crucial, as it is the foundation of his livelihood, so he certainly cannot let the two women be on his team.

Furthermore, the members of the Tiandou team were already quite strong, and with the addition of Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing, Shen An felt that they could basically sweep through the younger generation.

Thus, in the Soul Master Competition, Team Two won the championship with his help, and Team One also ranked among the top. It can be said that Shen An helped Xue Qinghe promote the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

"Haha, I'm going on a long trip soon, so maybe I shouldn't submit my list yet. I've heard about it, this is just to confirm it in advance."

Shen An chuckled dryly and said.

Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing's big eyes were filled with confusion. They had both gone in, so what was Shen An still waiting for?

Xue Qinghe's eyes seemed thoughtful. Shen An didn't seem too keen on teaming up with Zhu Zhuqing, which was a good thing.

"Shen An is right, there is still some time before the official registration for the competition."

"The purpose of this trip was simply to let you guys work together as a team so that you can cooperate better. But since Shen An is going on a long journey, it doesn't matter whether he counts as Shen An or not for now."

Xue Qinghe chuckled and gave Shen An a look that seemed to say, "Am I not very understanding?"

Shen Anyi responded with an appreciative look, "Great job!"

......

Two or three days passed in the blink of an eye, and now a large table was set up in Shen An's courtyard.

The table was laden with delicious food, all prepared by Chef Tang. His skills in making food look, smell, and taste perfect were just the basics.

“Shen An, Tom’s cooking skills are absolutely amazing. I’ve lived in the palace for so many years, and none of the royal chefs can compare to Tom.”

Xue Qinghe kept praising the work while his hands continued to move.

However, compared to Xue Qinghe's good appetite, Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong, who have always been unable to resist Tom's cooking, seemed to have no appetite at this moment.

This is a farewell banquet. Shen An is leaving tomorrow, and I won't see him again for a while. How annoying.

Moreover, it wasn't just Shen An who left; Tom and Jerry went with her too. Now, only the two beautiful young women will be left alone in their empty rooms.

To be honest, Jerry originally didn't want to go on a long trip, but after thinking about it, he realized that Tom definitely had to stay by Shen An's side, and this trip would last for several months.

So Jerry thought to himself, Tom, that clumsy cat, is always getting into trouble. What if he gets kidnapped by cat traffickers?

In the end, Jerry decided to go out with Shen An. It wasn't because he was reluctant to part with Tom; it was just, well, he was just a little concerned about the cat.

Shen An looked at the two women and naturally knew what they were thinking. Having lived together for so long, they naturally didn't want to endure separation.

Since staying in Tiandou is useless, it's better to go out and explore other cities in Douluo Continent.

As the moon rose high above the tower, Xue Qinghe departed, giving Shen An a talisman before leaving, saying it could withstand three attacks from those below the Soul Saint level.

He then secretly gave Shen An an elder's token from the Spirit Hall, saying it was a secret transaction between the royal family and the Spirit Hall, and that Shen An could use it if he encountered any trouble.

Shen An was surprised that Xue Qinghe would have such a thing, but he didn't ask any further questions, since Xue Qinghe himself had many secrets, such as those mysterious props.

As dawn broke, Shen An quietly left with Tom and Jerry, leaving the gym dumbbells behind for the two women.

This thing is more helpful to the two women. Shen An has the system with him, so three pounds of strength a day is nothing to him.

As Tom and Jerry left Tiandou City, they looked around with two binoculars, one large and one small, as if on a picnic.

Soon, Tom's face turned serious, as if he had discovered something, and he casually put the binoculars in front of Shen An's eyes.

In Shen An's field of vision, a middle-aged man wearing a black-rimmed hat and looking like a shrewd businessman suddenly appeared, but his face was somewhat worried.

What a coincidence, Flander. What's that old guy doing out here? Shen Anxin's mind raced.

Just before leaving, I encountered a wild owl. Why not use it to practice and test my current combat limits?

Previously, when I was a Soul Venerable, I could defeat a Soul Emperor and remain undefeated against a Soul Saint for a short time. Now, as a Soul Sect member, even if I cannot defeat Flander, I should be able to protect myself.

"Tom, could you transform the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass into the shape of the Seven Kill Sword? It would be best if you could make it look cool, but just make sure no one recognizes it," Shen An asked Tom.

"By the way, could you draw three more spirit rings for me?"

Tom nodded confidently. It's just drawing, right? He's good at it. He picked up the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass and started drawing.

On the forest path, Flander looked dejected. How come his cultivation hadn't improved at all after several months?

He knew that it was harder to improve as one's level went higher, but how could his cultivation level regress instead of progress? Had he never heard that cultivation was like rowing against the current, where if you don't advance, you fall behind?

Moreover, since Shen An caused a scene at Shrek Academy last time, some students at Shrek Academy have requested refunds, believing that their teaching quality is inadequate.

After all, not a single student in the entire academy could last two moves against Shen An.

Shrek's reputation was ruined, and Flander could already foresee a dismal enrollment year ahead.

The best course of action now is to perform well in the Soul Master Competition. Last year, Blue Lightning Academy was among the top eight, and this year we must not fall below the top eight, and ideally, we should be in the top three.

But Tang San and Xiao Wu have disappeared, and it's unknown whether they will be able to return before the Soul Master Competition.

Dai Mubai, on the other hand, was a heavy drinker all day long, and his fourth spirit ring, a ten-year spirit ring, dealt him a severe blow.

Flanders felt that life was bleak. He couldn't improve his skills, and the education career he had devoted himself to had suffered a heavy blow. He couldn't go on living like this.

"Tom, you call this handsome? That's way too abstract."

Shen An felt that Tom seemed to have a somewhat distorted understanding of what it meant to be handsome.

Tom had painted the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass silver-white, making it look no different from the Seven Kill Sword, except that the blade was covered with patterns.

On one side are Spike and his dog son, all muscular dogs, and on the other side is Peppa Pig and her family, or rather, Peppa Pig the Wild Boar.

After all, Tom drew these pigs as wild boars with tusks and bulging muscles.

Tom tilted his head and looked at Shen An with a puzzled expression. Isn't he handsome? Such big and hard muscles.

Shen An's lips twitched. Oh well, it's the same thing, as long as no one recognizes it.

Shen An tentatively used his soul power, and his eyes lit up instantly.

It must be said that Emperor Tang was indeed unreasonable and domineering. He simply drew the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass and incidentally turned his original blue soul power into silver-white.

Shen An gazed in the direction of Flanders. "Old owl, so what if he's a Soul Saint? My sword is still sharp."

"You two hide first, I'll come find you later."

Tom and Jerry nodded their little heads and ran off in a flash, leaving the two of them to play by themselves for a while.

Shen An circulated his soul power, and with the original four soul rings of yellow, purple, purple and black, plus the three black soul rings drawn by Tom, he had already reached the number of seven Soul Saints.

Looking at the real spirit rings surrounding him, Shen An reached out to touch them. Damn, they felt real! No wonder Tom said not to let these three spirit rings get hit.

Flander, who was taking a walk to clear his head, suddenly felt a sharp sensation. His previously dejected expression changed abruptly, and he retreated backward at an unimaginable speed.

Where he had stood, a deep ravine had suddenly appeared, emanating terrifying sword energy.

"Who goes there? Why did you try to ambush me?" At this moment, Flander's seven spirit rings appeared, and he exuded the terrifying aura of a spirit saint.

The surging soul power fluctuations caused the plants and trees around him to bend over.

Shen An was not surprised. Although he was very strong after absorbing a 50,000-year soul ring and possessing an ultimate martial soul, if Flander could be injured by him so easily, then he would not be a high-level soul saint.

Shen An, wearing a mask and using his soul power to alter his voice, made it hoarse and deep: "Hehehe, Flander is indeed a powerful figure who was once famous throughout the continent. He is truly extraordinary."

Flanders asked in surprise, "You've heard my story?"

Shen An fell silent. This Flander never played by the rules. When an enemy attacked him, he actually asked if Shen An had heard his story before.

Shen An was unaware that Flander, who had recently suffered a series of setbacks, was slightly invigorated when he heard that someone knew about his past, even if that person was an enemy.

Shen An stopped wasting words, and the seven spirit rings behind him continued to light up. He had no time to praise Flander; at this moment, he just wanted to test his current combat strength.

Flander is a very good practice subject, so why not find other ordinary Soul Saints?

Because Shen An is kind.

What if you accidentally cut off an ordinary Soul Saint's arm or leg? You can't exactly turn Tom Jerry into a medical cat (mouse).

'A Soul Saint, or a Soul Saint with a Weapon Soul?' A look of apprehension flashed in Flander's eyes.

Generally, weapon spirits are slightly disadvantaged compared to beast spirits before reaching the Soul Saint level. However, after reaching the Soul Saint level, weapon spirit masters who have comprehended the true form of their weapon spirits have an advantage.

However, upon seeing the longsword in Shen An's hand, even someone as composed as Flander couldn't help but utter a curse.

"Sword Martial Soul can look like this."

Whose sword has a muscular pig painted on one side and a muscular dog on the other?

Just as Flander hesitated, Shen An's figure disappeared from the spot. Daring to be distracted during a battle is courting death!

Shen An's four spirit rings all lit up, and he used his spirit power without reservation, leaving only the three fake ones drawn by Tom unmoved.

Logically speaking, when a Soul Master moves, their Soul Rings should also move.

However, the three spirit rings that Tom drew were a bit slow to react, and they froze in place when Shen An flew out.

At this moment, the three fakes, which were originally floating in the air, stood up in confusion and looked at each other like real people.

Then, seemingly remembering that he was a spirit ring and needed to follow a spirit master, he quickly flew towards Shen Anfei.

Chapter 200 Sword Qi Transforms into Peppa Pig

"It's so boring in the academy, I might as well come out and have some fun. The dean is my uncle, so no one will dare to stop me even if I skip class."

Avalanche turned to his group of underlings and said proudly.

The underlings all nodded in unison and said, "Boss Avalanche is right. Following Boss, life is carefree and comfortable."

Avalanche nodded in satisfaction, but inwardly he lamented his tragic fate.

Both being princes of the Heavenly Dou Empire, Xue Qinghe was surrounded by a peerless genius like Shen An, while he himself was surrounded by a bunch of oddballs.

As I pondered my future course of action, a deafening roar echoed in my ears from an avalanche.

Looking up, I saw a masked man wielding a tattooed longsword engaged in fierce combat with a middle-aged man with wings.

The middle-aged man was recognized by Xue Beng: Flander, a level 78 agility-attack type Soul Saint.

Avalanche's Adam's apple bobbed. To be able to fight a Soul Saint, he must also be a Soul Saint. He shifted his gaze, his mind reeling, and rubbed his eyes hard.
