In the world of no return, holding the sun and the moon

Chapter 138 Emperor Late Autumn

A month passed in a flash.

Xiao Ming went out once this month to complete a supervisory mission, and stayed at home to practice the rest of the time. Of course, Xiao Ming's current realm, although it is twice as effective with half the effort, still does not make much progress, at least the soul power level has not changed much.

A lot of things happened in a month, such as Meng Hongchen's sixth soul ring, which had nothing to do with Xiao Ming. As a member of the Sun Moon Empire, Meng Hongchen's soul ring was obtained by their team leader when she went out hunting.

It is worth mentioning that Meng Hongchen has not bothered Zhang Lexuan since meeting Xiao Ming, which also allows Zhang Lexuan to have time to practice with Xiao Ming.

The martial soul fusion technique of the two is now different from before. The strength of the two has undergone a qualitative change compared to before. Zhang Lexuan's strength has reached level ninety-five, and after the two used the martial soul fusion technique, their strength can even compete with Boss Mu.

This is good news for the two of them. At least if they are together, ordinary Extreme Douluo can no longer do anything to them. Of course, the time for the martial soul fusion skill is still a problem. Although the martial souls of the two are highly compatible, there is still a time limit.

Xiao Ming felt the speed at which his soul power was growing, and couldn't help but sigh, then he voluntarily exited the cultivation state.

Zhang Lexuan, who was sitting opposite Xiao Ming, looked at him puzzledly and asked, "What's wrong? Why did you stop practicing so soon today?"

Xiao Ming shook his head: "I have to go to the outer courtyard today."

Zhang Lexuan was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then asked, "Are you going to see Meng Hongchen again?"

Xiao Ming nodded. He had made an agreement with Meng Hongchen before that he needed to visit her in the outer courtyard frequently, and now the time was almost up.

Zhang Lexuan was stunned for a moment and said, "Why don't we forget about it today? I remember that Mr. Mu asked you to learn something from him."

Xiao Ming was reminded by Zhang Lexuan and remembered the matter of Mu Lao, but Xiao Ming still waved his hand and said: "I know what Mu Lao wants to teach me to do, this matter is not urgent for the time being."

Mu Lao had told Xiao Ming before that he wanted Xiao Ming to know the relationship between the nobles of the three empires of the original Douluo Continent, as well as the core figures of the three empires. It was intriguing that Mu Lao taught Xiao Ming these things. Mu Lao probably wanted Xiao Ming's future plans to go more smoothly, so he was ready to tell Xiao Ming about it.

However, as long as Shrek secretly supports him, Xiao Ming can still do it. Mr. Mu is talking to Xiao Ming now just because he wants Shrek to stay in the dark longer.

From Xiao Ming's perspective, it was a little different. If he could pull Shrek to his side, that would be even better, but if he couldn't, that was also okay. At least Xiao Ming's team could temporarily unleash the strength of an Extreme Douluo. After that, when Xiao Ming and Zhang Lexuan both became Extreme Douluos, Xiao Ming didn't even dare to imagine the power of the martial soul fusion technique.

Xiao Ming did not stop talking after he finished speaking, and headed directly to the outer courtyard of Shrek. Xiao Ming was also a little troubled by Meng Hongchen's matter. Before, Meng Hongchen had been bothering Zhang Lexuan, and now the pressure was on Xiao Ming.

Meng Hongchen still wanted to enter the inner courtyard. She always remembered what Xiao Ming said before, that as long as they entered the inner courtyard, Xiao Ming would be with her. Meng Hongchen also knew what Xiao Ming meant to Shrek, so she asked Xiao Ming this question with hope every time they met.

Xiao Ming naturally had no way of answering this question. The matter of the Sun-Moon Empire students entering the inner courtyard was not something Xiao Ming could control.

Xiao Ming also asked Mr. Mu, and Mr. Mu agreed, but Yan Shaozhe mentioned some rules. However, since Mr. Mu had asked, Yan Shaozhe didn't know what to say.

However, Shrek still delayed Meng Hongchen's admission to the inner courtyard until the beginning of this semester, so that Meng Hongchen and the students from the outer courtyard could take the inner courtyard assessment together. This was Yan Shaozhe's last struggle, which could at least delay Meng Hongchen for a month.

As soon as Xiao Ming saw Meng Hongchen, Meng Hongchen threw himself into Xiao Ming's arms: "Xiao Ming, I've received a notice that we will be taking the inner courtyard assessment with the students from the outer courtyard of Shrek in a few days."

Xiao Ming touched Meng Hongchen's head helplessly. He had known about this matter for a long time. The news must have just reached Meng Hongchen.

Xiao Ming looked at Meng Hongchen in his arms and asked, "Are you the only one taking the inner courtyard assessment?"

Meng Hongchen rubbed against Xiao Ming's arms and said, "Yes, Shrek said that others can only wait for half a year before they have a chance."

Xiao Hongchen looked at his sister in Xiao Ming's arms, wanting to say something, but in the end he didn't speak. Xiao Hongchen couldn't stop Meng Hongchen's affairs. Now Meng Hongchen's strength has surpassed his. As long as Meng Hongchen is willing, he can only watch from the side.

Xiao Ming did not say anything about Shrek. Although Shrek was a neutral force, it was still half an enemy of the Sun Moon Empire. So although Yan Shaozhe's actions were a bit stingy, Xiao Ming would not say anything wrong. At least from Yan Shaozhe's perspective, it was for Shrek.

With the opening of Shrek Academy, the number of students in the academy has increased again, and many new students have entered Shrek Academy this year.

On the other side, in the Poseidon Pavilion, Mu Lao felt that Xiao Ming was heading to the outer courtyard, so he released his mental power and asked Xiao Hong and Xuan Lao to come to the Poseidon Pavilion.

After notifying Xiao Hong and Xuan Lao, Mu Lao closed his eyes and began to think about what would happen after Shrek. The situation on the continent is tense now, and there are more and more frictions between the Sun Moon Empire and the three countries of the original Douluo Continent. It is only a matter of time before a war breaks out.

At this stage, the next successor to Lord Poseidon is particularly important. At first, Mr. Mu thought that Xiao Ming's growth rate was amazing and wanted Xiao Ming to take over, but Xiao Ming was unwilling, so Mr. Mu had to choose someone else.

At present, the only two people who have the ability to take the position of the Sea God Pavilion Master are Xiao Hong and Xuan Lao. No matter what, there are only these two level 98 Super Douluo in the Sea God Pavilion, at least they can barely hold up the appearance of the Sea God Pavilion after he leaves.

However, neither of them is the best candidate in Mu Lao's mind. If they were not the only ones in Poseidon Pavilion whose strength barely meets the requirements, Mu Lao would not have notified them to come here.

Needless to say, Xuan Lao was too relaxed in his work, and handing the Sea God Pavilion over to him was a bad choice. But Xiao Hong was not much better. Although Xiao Hong had studied in Shrek before, he still lacked a sense of belonging to Shrek.

Mr. Mu knew that if Xiao Hong was asked to choose between Shrek and Xiao Ming, he would choose Xiao Ming without hesitation. This was also the reason why Mr. Mu hesitated.

Although Mr. Mu knew that Xiao Ming would not do anything to harm Shrek, the leader of Poseidon Pavilion was no joke, and he was worried about handing Poseidon Pavilion over to Xiao Hong.

No one knew what Elder Mu said to Xiao Hong and the others. In the end, the two of them just walked out of the Poseidon Pavilion with solemn expressions.

At night, Xiao Ming returned home on time. Looking at Zhang Lexuan sitting on the sofa, Xiao Ming sat beside her and hugged her.

Zhang Lexuan suddenly said, "Do you want to go to the inner courtyard examination tomorrow? I remember that you haven't been in the inner courtyard for long. You are old enough, so you can be their examiner."

Xiao Ming was slightly stunned. Zhang Lexuan was in charge of the inner courtyard assessment, Xiao Ming naturally knew that, but Zhang Lexuan now asked him to be the examiner. Wouldn't this be a fatal blow to the guys in the outer courtyard? Zhang Lexuan noticed that Xiao Ming was stunned and explained: "They are not fools. No one will choose to fight with you. You just need to watch from the side."

Hearing this, Xiao Ming nodded, agreeing to Zhang Lexuan's proposal.

Zhang Lexuan sighed and said, "There are seven people taking the inner courtyard assessment this time, and three of them have connections with you."

Xiao Ming said indifferently: "It's okay, I'll just go and take a look at this matter. Their entry into the inner courtyard has nothing to do with me."

As night fell, a figure entered Shrek Academy under the cover of darkness. Her long golden hair danced in the moonlight. She headed all the way to Shrek Academy without stopping.

Not long after, the woman entered Shrek Academy. Shrek was conducting enrollment activities these two days, and no one stopped her. She asked passers-by about the dean's office, and then went directly to Yan Shaozhe.

Early in the morning, Xiao Ming and Zhang Lexuan walked out of the attic and headed towards the fighting arena in the outer courtyard.

In the fighting spirit arena, there were already several people waiting here, not only some students, but also the dean of Shrek's martial spirit department, Yan Shaozhe. Beside Yan Shaozhe, there was a blonde woman.

Yan Shaozhe rubbed his temples with a headache. Last night, this girl broke into the dean's office and wanted to ask him directly where Xiao Ming was.

At first, Yan Shaozhe didn't know what was going on, but after the girl revealed her martial spirit, Yan Shaozhe immediately changed his attitude. It was the first time Yan Shaozhe had seen the pressure of a top-level dragon martial spirit. After some testing, Yan Shaozhe agreed to the girl's request.

However, the inner courtyard examination starts today, and it is too late to inform Zhang Lexuan in the middle of the night. Yan Shaozhe simply asked the girl to come to Shrek Academy to find him early in the morning.

During one night, Yan Shaozhe also sent people to inquire about the girl's information, but the girl seemed to have appeared out of thin air. All they knew was that she appeared from the vicinity of the Xingdou Great Forest.

Faced with the girl's background, Yan Shaozhe was naturally a little wary, but seeing that the girl knew Xiao Ming, Yan Shaozhe decided to give her another chance for the sake of her ultimate martial spirit. As long as Xiao Ming could recognize the girl, it would be enough.

At the edge of the fighting arena, several people looked at the girl beside Yan Shaozhe in confusion.

Xu Sanshi asked his good brother Beibei with some doubt: "Do you know who she is?"

It was originally an internal courtyard assessment, and everyone around knew each other, but Yan Shaozhe appeared with a girl that no one had ever seen before, which was hard not to attract everyone's attention.

Beibei shook her head and then asked, "Why? You have feelings for her."

Xu Sanshi waved his hands quickly: "No, no, how could I have any thoughts about other women."

As he spoke, Xu Sanshi glanced at Jiang Nannan carefully. After a month's vacation, Xu Sanshi clearly felt that Jiang Nannan had changed. Not to mention Jiang Nannan's increased strength, Jiang Nannan's attitude towards him had also changed. Now Xu Sanshi didn't know what Jiang Nannan was thinking.

Not long after, Zhang Lexuan brought a group of inner courtyard students to the outer courtyard's fighting spirit field. These inner courtyard students were naturally the examiners this time. This inner courtyard assessment was also quite simple. One only had to last ten minutes against the inner courtyard students.

As soon as Zhang Lexuan entered the fighting arena, Yan Shaozhe came over and whispered something to Zhang Lexuan. After Zhang Lexuan nodded in agreement, Yan Shaozhe turned his attention to Xiao Ming.

When he saw Xiao Ming looking at the blonde girl, the stone in Yan Shaozhe's heart finally fell. He said, how could a woman with an ultimate martial spirit be an undercover agent entering Shrek.

When Xiao Ming saw the blonde woman, he knew that this inner courtyard assessment would not be easy. The blonde woman's aura alone made Xiao Ming feel familiar. After exchanging glances with the blonde woman many times, Xiao Ming finally confirmed her identity.

Xiao Ming looked at the other party with some confusion in his heart, and at the same time began to constantly slander Di Tian's ability in his heart. Xiao Ming had reminded Di Tian before, so why did Di Tian still release the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.

Zhang Lexuan suddenly patted Xiao Ming's shoulder. She naturally saw Xiao Ming's gaze. Since entering the fighting arena, Xiao Ming had been staring at the opposite side. Zhang Lexuan didn't believe that there was no affair at all.

After Xiao Ming came to his senses, he was still a little confused, and then he was brought by Yan Shaozhe to the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.

Xiao Ming looked at the girl in front of him, forced a smile, and said unnaturally: "Long time no see."

Xiao Ming had only been away from the Star Dou Great Forest for less than two months when she found his hometown. No one knew how Di Tian viewed people, but he released the Three-Eyed Golden Lion so easily.

Di Wanqiu seemed quite natural. He approached Xiao Ming and whispered, "I ran out to see you secretly. How is it? Are you touched?"

Xiao Ming looked at the three-eyed golden lion in front of him, feeling somewhat helpless. To be honest, if it weren't for the guidance of fate, he might not know who she was. However, the three-eyed golden lion suddenly appeared here, and Xiao Ming began to wonder if the God King Tang had begun to exert his strength.

After all, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion was alive and well in Xingdou, so why did he come here for no apparent reason? It couldn't be that he was really here to find me, so Di Tian was really a bit of a loser, he couldn't even keep an eye on the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.

Seeing Xiao Ming didn't say anything, Di Wanqiu said, "I'm Di Wanqiu now, don't call me the wrong name."

While the two were talking, the inner courtyard assessment officially began. Xiao Ming naturally did not become the target of several people. What a joke! Did they pick on Xiao Ming because they thought they were too strong?

Yan Shaozhe on the side suddenly asked Xiao Ming in a low voice: "Can you confirm her origins?"

Xiao Ming nodded, and then said: "There is no problem with her identity, you can rest assured, Senior Brother."

Hearing this, Yan Shaozhe was relieved. With Xiao Ming's words, at least he knew that the child was not an undercover. With Xiao Ming, Shrek Academy now has two owners of ultimate martial spirits. Yan Shaozhe didn't dare to think about what would happen in the future.

Yan Shaozhe asked curiously, "How did this girl get to know you?"

According to Di Wanqiu's talent and the connection between her and Xiao Ming, she rushed to Shrek Academy overnight to find Xiao Ming and said that their relationship was innocent. Naturally, Yan Shaozhe didn't believe it.
