Douluo Continent: I teach and nurture students at Tianshui Academy!

This scene caught the eye of Little Spider, who had returned, and a strange smile crept onto her lips.

Chapter 102: Hu Liena: Okay! Stealing from behind my teacher's back...

After Tang San devoured the flesh and blood of the Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent, he successfully broke through to level 30. He then retrieved his Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul into his body and looked at the bare skeleton of the Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent, a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.

He savored the satisfaction and comfort of devouring flesh and blood. Although it wasn't the first time he had used the Blue Silver Grass's devouring ability, each time he used it, he felt addicted, experiencing pleasure from head to toe, and he simply couldn't stop.

At first, Tang San was somewhat puzzled by the fact that his Blue Silver Grass had the ability to devour flesh and life force. In the original memories in his mind, the only person with this devouring ability was Tang Ya from the Holy Spirit Cult.

However, he quickly accepted the Blue Silver Grass's ability. After all, in Tang San's understanding, his martial soul was the Blue Silver Emperor, the supreme emperor of the Blue Silver Grass clan, and naturally he possessed all the abilities of the Blue Silver Grass, so it was normal for him to have the ability to devour.

However, because the Spirit Hall still exists, he dares not use the Blue Silver Grass's devouring ability too much, for fear of being mistaken for an evil spirit master. Today is only the fourth time he has used it.

Having broken through to level 30, Tang San felt he was invincible again.

All he has to do now is wait, wait until nightfall, wait for the Titan Ape to appear.

The Titan Ape is so big that it's bound to be a conspicuous presence in the forest. If it kidnaps Xiao Wu, I can follow it and take the opportunity to play the hero and save the damsel in distress. Even if I don't succeed, I'll definitely leave a good impression on Xiao Wu, making it easier to win her over later.

Tang San thought he was too clever. He could not only win back Xiao Wu's favor, but also obtain the Eight Spider Lances. With a little guidance, he might even be able to get the Titan Giant Ape to take action and beat that guy to death.

Sure enough, the world revolves around me, and everything is going exactly as I expected!

Having gained the memories of a time traveler and knowing that he is the "protagonist," Tang San has a mysterious confidence.

In the shadows, Little Spider looked at Tang San's face, which was covered with a mysterious smile, and a hint of disdain flashed in her eyes before disappearing quietly.

A moment later, Tang San caught up with the Shrek Academy group and told Zhao Wuji that he had broken through to level 30. Zhao Wuji was quite surprised, as he did not expect that Tang San had broken through to level 30 in such a short time.

"You're something else, kid! A Soul Master at less than thirteen years old, and you're even faster than Mu Bai was back then. You really are a little monster!"

Old Zhao patted Tang San on the shoulder and praised him. Tang San replied humbly that it was just luck; his soul power had fluctuated when he was taking the snake gall to resist the snake venom, which led to his breakthrough.

The situation described by Tang San is not uncommon. It is normal for someone who is already on the verge of a breakthrough to break through under external stimulation. Zhao Wuji did not doubt it.

"Now that you've broken through to level 30, we won't go back. Let's help you get your third soul ring first."

"Thank you, Teacher Zhao."

Originally intending to return to Soul Hunter Town, the Shrek group chose to stay in the Star Dou Great Forest to help Tang San obtain his third soul ring after Tang San broke through to level 30.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

The sun and moon revolve, and in the blink of an eye, night falls.

The Starry Night Forest is dark and deep, even more dangerous, with a cold climate. It is like a giant beast lying on the ground with its fangs open, constantly devouring the soul masters in the forest at night.

Even some titled Douluo powerhouses wouldn't dare venture deep into the forest at night without absolute certainty.

In an open space in the mixed area, a bonfire was lit, its blazing flames illuminating the darkness, dispelling the chill of the night, and bringing warmth to Gu Shenge and Ye Yuci.

The campfire was burning brightly, crackling and popping. The intense heat made Hu Liena and Zhu Zhuqing's faces rosy, like red apples, so tempting that one would want to take a bite.

Gu Shenge chatted and laughed with Ye Yuci and Lan Qingyan. Huo Yun'er took out the food she had prepared and distributed it to everyone to fill their stomachs. The atmosphere was quite harmonious.

Hu Liena ate her food in small bites, her eyes fixed on the campfire, but her ears were perked up, eavesdropping on Gu Shenge's conversation with the two beautiful women, hoping to glean some clues so she could report back to her teacher.

However, Gu Shenge had already noticed her subtle actions. Her conversation with Ye Yuci and the others was watertight, and it sounded like they were just ordinary friends, which made Hu Liena somewhat disappointed.

However, whenever Hu Liena thought about how Gu Shenge had so easily given a 100,000-year-old torso and soul bone to Ye Yuci, she felt that the relationship between the two was not simple and there was definitely something wrong.

The beautiful woman with the begonia flower accepted the food Huo Yun'er handed her, said thank you, and then asked Gu Shenge a question.

"Shengge, although there are many spirit beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest, ice-attribute spirit beasts are extremely rare. What kind of spirit ring do you plan to help Director Lan obtain?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Shenge shook her head.

“I don’t plan to help her obtain her eighth spirit ring in the Star Dou Great Forest. After Xiao Qing obtains her third spirit ring, I plan to take her to the far north ice plains to obtain her eighth spirit ring.”

Lan Qingyan's martial soul is the Ice Phoenix, a top-tier beast martial soul. Ice-attribute soul beasts from the far north ice plains are most suitable for her.

Upon hearing that he actually wanted to go to the far north to help Lan Qingyan obtain her eighth spirit ring, Ye Yuci's beautiful face showed a look of surprise.

It should be noted that the far north ice plains are no less than ten thousand miles away from the Star Dou Great Forest. Even with the speed and strength of a Title Douluo, the round trip would take a huge amount of time.

I never expected that he would be willing to waste so much time on Lan Qingyan.

A titled Douluo powerhouse traveled a great distance and spent a lot of time helping a Soul Saint hunt for his eighth Soul Ring.

If this is just a favor between friends, isn't it a huge overkill?!

The beautiful woman with the begonia in her eyes instantly suspected that there was something going on between Gu Shenge and Lan Qingyan. She glanced at the mature female director with a subtle look and carefully observed the change in her eyes.

Although Lan Qingyan didn't reveal much, when she looked at Gu Shenge, a hint of love always appeared in her eyes. Ye Yuci caught this hint of love, which surprised her greatly.

Just as she expected, the relationship between the two was unusual.

I had previously heard Leng Qishuang say that Lan Qingyan was quite resistant to Gu Shenge, but now it seems that's not the case.

However, Ye Yuci thought again that Gu Shenge had reached the title of Douluo at such a young age. His talent was so high that, if not unparalleled in the future, it was at least unprecedented.

Such an outstanding man, not only would Lan Qingyan be tempted, but even she would be tempted.

The thought that Gu Shenge had helped her obtain the soul of a 100,000-year-old jade swan and then given her the torso and soul bone of a 100,000-year-old jade swan made her feel incredibly sad.

Ye Yuci's heart couldn't help but flutter, and her gaze towards Gu Shenge subtly changed. She moved even closer to him, practically touching him.

With his keen senses, he noticed the change in Ye Yuci's eyes and felt her voluptuous and soft mature body approaching him. He remained expressionless and did not reject her.

When Hu Liena saw Ye Yuci's intimate posture with Gu Shenge, she was startled and her brows furrowed slightly, becoming even more certain that their relationship was unusual.

Elder Haoyang actually cheated on her with his teacher! How despicable!

Chapter 103: Titan Ape: Uncle Emperor Zhao.

In front of the campfire, Xiao Wu was munching on a carrot when suddenly the rabbit ears on her head stood up. She stood up as well, turned her head to look south, and her pink eyes revealed joy.

Gu Shenge, who was sandwiched between two beautiful women chatting and laughing with them, suddenly looked up and looked south. Immediately afterward, Ye Yuci and Lan Qingyan also noticed and looked in that direction.

Although the night was deep and darkness enveloped the entire forest, they all sensed that a huge creature was rapidly approaching their location.

The ground trembled slightly, scattering the burning fuel everywhere. Trees shook, leaves fell, and the muffled sound of running echoed through the forest, reaching Gu Shenge and Ye Yuci's ears.

"come yet."

With such a commotion, Gu Shenge knew without a doubt that the Titan Ape had arrived.

As the powerful aura drew ever closer, everyone except Gu Shenge and Xiao Wu adopted solemn expressions, activated their martial spirits, and stood ready, looking south with extreme vigilance.

A blazing sun rose from behind Gu Shengge, burning with intense solar fire, its heat intense, scorching everything in its path. The air temperature suddenly rose, its light illuminating the forest and dispelling the darkness!

Nine spirit rings rose and floated beneath his feet, some purple and beautiful, some black and profound, and some red and eerie.

Looking at Gu Shenge, who was possessed by a martial spirit and resembled a sun god, the women felt a sense of security and were no longer so afraid of the unknown beings that were about to appear.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, the two tall trees that had been blocking their way were forcibly separated and broken by a pair of giant hands covered in black hair, and a massive figure, as large as a mountain, rushed out with heavy and rapid steps.

A powerful aura from the ancient wilderness, accompanied by a strong wind, swept over them, extinguishing the campfire and causing Gu Shenge and the women's clothes to flutter wildly.

Under the bright moonlight, everyone was finally able to see the true face of the beast!

It was an existence like a mountain. The dark hair on its body shone faintly under the weak light of the stars and moon. Although it was on all fours, the height of its shoulders was definitely more than seven meters.

If it were to walk upright, its height would probably exceed fifteen meters.

From the outside, it looks like a monkey and a chimpanzee at the same time. Except for a pair of lantern-sized eyes that shimmer with a yellow crystal-like luster, it is completely black. Its body is incredibly strong. Not only is its body huge, but every part of its body is covered with strong muscles that are more terrifying than granite, protruding like small hills.

It stood before everyone like a small mountain, towering and majestic, like a giant beast from the ancient wilderness. Its terrifying aura shook the surrounding area for thousands of miles. The soul beasts sensed its presence and fled in all directions!

The moment Ye Yuci and Huo Yun'er saw the Titan Ape, they were all stunned!

"The ruler of the forest, the Titan Ape?!"

Hu Liena could no longer contain her shock and exclaimed, her foxy eyes filled with astonishment. How could this be?! She even doubted her own eyes for a moment.

Although this is a mixed zone, it's closer to the outer perimeter. How could the forest overlord from the core zone suddenly appear?!

After the initial shock, Hu Liena felt a surge of relief.

Fortunately, they still had Elder Haoyang with them.

According to her teacher, the Titan Giant Ape in the Star Dou Great Forest is already 100,000 years old, making it even stronger than an ordinary Title Douluo. If it weren't for Elder Haoyang, they would probably be in grave danger today.

Gu Shenge looked at the Titan Giant Ape. Although its cultivation had reached 100,000 years and its bloodline was outstanding, making it stronger than a level 95 ape, it was still no match for him at level 99.

To prevent his fight with the Titan Ape from affecting others, Gu Shenge raised his hand and released the laws of the Bright Realm, enveloping the five women except Xiao Wu.

"Give up resistance."

Just then, Ye Yuci and Lan Qingyan heard Gu Shenge's voice in their ears, telling them to give up resisting.

Upon hearing this, the five women relaxed their bodies, allowing the laws of the Bright Realm to envelop them and teleport them into the Bright Realm, leaving only Gu Shengge and Xiao Wu outside.

Just when Gu Shenge thought he was about to have a big battle with the Titan Ape, the Titan Ape lowered its head, its big yellow eyes looking at him with human-like joy and respect. It opened its mouth and called out, its voice deep and respectful, like a junior greeting an elder, to Gu Shenge.

"Long time no see, Uncle Di Zhao."

This completely stumped Gu Shenge. They were all ready to fight, but then Gu Shenge called him "uncle." How could he possibly lay a hand on him?

However, it was because of this "uncle" that Gu Shenge became even more certain of her hypothesis: her future self would indeed have the ability to travel through time and had truly traveled to the past.

He looked at the massive Titan Ape, which was as big as a small mountain, and then at Xiao Wu beside him. Although he didn't know what he had done in the past or why Xiao Wu and Er Ming called him uncle, he knew that since they called him uncle, their relationship must be close.

Gu Shenge then descended, dispelling his martial soul possession. A kind smile appeared on his handsome face as he spoke in a gentle voice, like an elder seeing a junior he hadn't seen in a long time, his tone slightly surprised.

"Who do we have here? It's Erming! So many years have passed, you've grown so much! Your cultivation has reached 100,000 years. It seems you've been cultivating very hard all these years. Why are you here? Where's Daming?"

"My elder brother is still in seclusion inside and doesn't know that you've arrived, Uncle. I only came out because I sensed Sister Xiaowu's presence."

Erming confessed honestly, and was very obedient and well-behaved in front of Gu Shenge. It then looked at Xiaowu, its voice full of joy.

"Sister Xiaowu, you're finally back! Daming and I missed you so much!"
