Chapter 371

The assassins did not hesitate at all. After realizing that the assassination had failed, they immediately retreated. This was all part of their plan.

What a joke. This mission required them to kill their target while surrounded by more than ten Soul Sages. There were even quite a few Soul Douluo among them.

Under such circumstances, they could not stay for even a second longer. They had to retreat quickly. Otherwise, they would be finished if they were caught!

Instantly, the few people who were fighting threw out smoke bombs and retreated outside. The assassin who was holding the dagger on the ground also dived into the smoke.

The large bird immediately transformed into a human and dived into the smoke bomb.

Just now, they had attacked from the sky under the cover of night because no one was paying attention to the sky. Those Soul Sages and Soul Douluo did not care either.

But now, everyone was paying attention to this side. If they escaped from the sky, it would be dangerous.

Instantly, smoke filled the air. The five people who attacked quickly retreated. Those who were ready to attack also ran outside when they saw the situation.

At this moment, they had not all reacted. It was the best time to retreat.

No one stopped them. Or rather, they had no way to stop them.

This group of people were all experienced assassins. Before they attacked, they had already planned to retreat. Whether they succeeded or not, they had a way to deal with it.

They were unprepared. In addition, the experts were far away. Lin Feng, who was the closest to them, did not care about them.

Just like that, the group of people quickly ran into the distance and fled in all directions.

They were so fast that some people who were far away did not even know what was going on.

"There's an assassin!" Flender flew into the sky and shouted.

However, everyone's reaction was still a little slow. It was very difficult to catch anyone in the middle of the night.

Flanders scanned the surroundings. He wanted to see the direction in which the assassins had retreated. But because of the situation, the crowd was very chaotic. It was too difficult to find out who the assassins were.

Furthermore, Flanders was afraid that the assassins would attack again. He did not dare to chase after them. He could only land to protect Tang San and the rest.

After a while, Dugu Bo appeared. He first glanced at everyone. Then, he came to Lin Feng's side and asked, "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine." Lin Feng smiled and waved his hand.

As he spoke, his avatar had already teleported out to follow those people.

Lin Feng was confused. Were these people from the Martial Spirit Palace?

It can't be, right? Their martial souls and soul skills seem to be completely different from those of inland soul masters. Furthermore, these people seem to be very professional.

The Martial Spirit Palace didn't have such a professional assassin. What about Yue Guan and Gui Mei?

Shouldn't these two be the ones coming over?

Why can't I find it?

With these doubts in mind, Lin Feng's clone began to track down those people. He wanted to see the situation behind them.

At this moment, because an assassin had appeared in the middle of the camp, all of the teachers were on high alert, protecting their own students. The Royal Guards were also on high alert, and they started to patrol.

Xue Qinghe, accompanied by Ning Fengzhi, walked towards the crowd. He had come to check on the situation.

Suddenly encountering an assassin, the kind that came prepared, the group was still a little shaken.

Even Tang San was a little scared. If he hadn't made a breakthrough in his research recently, he would have been seriously injured, if not dead.

"Rongrong, are you alright?" Ning Fengzhi walked over nervously.

Ning Rongrong hurriedly ran over and said, "I'm fine."

Xue Qinghe also walked over and asked, "What happened?

Were there assassins just now? "

Because it happened too quickly, they could only hear Flanders's shout, but they didn't see what exactly happened.

"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. There were five assassins just now, but fortunately, they were repelled." Flanders went up and clasped his hands.

"How dare they challenge the dignity of the empire? How arrogant!

Dean Fu, don't worry, the Heaven Dou Empire will investigate this matter to the end! "

Xue Qinghe shouted to the officer behind him, "Pass down my orders. Investigate this assassination thoroughly. The Royal Guards will start patrolling the entire day from today. Also, transfer the soul master army from the nearby cities over!"

Xue Qinghe had already put himself in the position of the Crown Prince. Now that he was attacked, it was a slap to the face of the Heaven Dou Imperial Family. He was really angry!

After the official announcement, Xue Qinghe showed concern for Tang San and the others in his personal capacity.

This was the Crown Prince, after all. Everyone was very touched that he was personally concerned about them.

After the two sides conversed for a while, Xue Qinghe left. After all, he still needed to control the Royal Guards.

During the conversation just now, everyone only talked about the general situation. They didn't go into the details.

After all, Tang San's situation just now was too shocking. A Bluesilver Grass soul master actually used Xiao Wu's teleportation soul skill. No matter what the situation was, it was an extremely important secret!

At this moment, the outsiders had all left. With Dugu Bo guarding here, everyone was completely relieved.

"Third Brother, you really scared me to death just now. Fortunately, you're fine." Xiao Wu hugged Tang San with a worried expression.

Everyone else was curious. The Grandmaster asked, "Xiao San, what happened just now?

How did you use Xiao Wu's teleportation soul skill?

Could it be …? "

Tang San nodded. "Yes, it's the soul skill engraving technique that Feng Ge mentioned before!

I engraved Xiao Wu's teleportation soul skill. This way, I can use it! "

"Good fellow, you really managed to research it." Lin Feng sighed in admiration.

Tang San had always been researching this thing alone and didn't tell anyone. Now that he had researched it, it was quite amazing.

In fact, Lin Feng could also use this technique of engraving other people's soul skills. However, he used his powerful soul power to control it, so others couldn't copy it at all.

Tang San's creation was mainly due to his control over his soul power, but it was also because he had researched and developed a technique in this area.

"This is engraving other people's soul skills?!" Dugu Bo was astonished!

He was very clear about the difficulty of this because he had done it himself!

It was still okay for soul skills below the Soul Elder rank. He could use the soul power of a Titled Douluo to forcibly engrave them.

However, he couldn't engrave soul skills above the Soul Elder rank.

The poison array back then was very high-level and could even affect Soul Sages and Soul Douluo. However, he had only managed to engrave his own soul skills.

If it were someone else's soul skill, he definitely wouldn't be able to reach this level.

However, Tang San, a Soul King, was actually able to engrave a Soul Ancestor's soul skill. This was something that even he couldn't do, so how could he not be surprised?

The last time, he had seen it from Thanos. That illusion array was really too strong.

"That's right, I also experimented many times before I succeeded. Furthermore, it took me a long time to create it. The one just now was the only time I succeeded." Tang San rejoiced.

The master sighed. "Xiao San, you're really a genius!"

Although the master was researching soul tools, he knew how difficult it was to do so.

Tang San was able to research it, so it was really admirable.

"I'm also working hard for the Tang Sect. If this kind of engraved soul skill can be mass-produced and engraved on hidden weapons, the Tang Sect's strength will be even stronger."

Tang San looked at Lin Feng. "I also have to thank Feng Ge for this. If not for Feng Ge's words, I wouldn't have thought of this."

"It's all Mr. Destroy's teachings." Lin Feng smiled and didn't say anything else.

While everyone was surprised by Tang San's genius, on the other side, Lin Feng's clone had already tracked down the group of assassins from before.

The first assassination attempt had failed, and the appearance of a Titled Douluo, Dugu Bo, had caused the group of assassins to gather together.

"The intelligence was wrong. It said that the strongest person in the team was Soul Douluo. I didn't expect a Titled Douluo to appear!"

"Yes, it seems that Titled Douluo will be staying near the Shrek Academy's carriage. It's too difficult to assassinate him!"

"And the assassination target can teleport. I didn't even see his martial soul or soul skill, but he teleported just like that. This intelligence is wrong."

The group of people were talking at once, discussing the assassination plan, but most of them were complaining.

"It seems that this assassination won't be successful. Let's see if there's a chance when we reach Martial Spirit City."

As soon as he finished speaking, someone said, "Martial Spirit City is the headquarters of the Martial Spirit Hall. There are many experts there. I don't want to court death."

"What are you afraid of? No matter how strong the Martial Spirit Hall is, as long as there's no Titled Douluo searching, we can still find a chance to kill a Soul Ancestor!"

In fact, even if there was a Titled Douluo protecting them, they could still assassinate them.

But that was dancing on the tip of a knife. One careless move and they would die. It was too dangerous.

Most of them would choose to wait until they reached Martial Spirit City and those people relaxed.

"But …"

Lin Feng listened for a few minutes. When the crowd was about to disperse, he finally understood what was going on.

Someone had spent a lot of money to hire those people, and then the purpose was to assassinate Tang San.

There was no need to think too much. Lin Feng immediately realized that the person behind this must be the Martial Spirit Hall, and it should be an order from Pope Bibi Dong. Otherwise, it would be difficult for them to offer the reward of one million gold coins.

Although Ning Fengzhi took five million gold coins, it was the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, the richest organization on the continent. Even the Martial Spirit Hall was not as rich as them.

Besides, the hidden weapons they traded with Tang San were all life-saving things. That was why they were willing to spend a lot of money.

Other organizations would be very powerful if they could take out one million gold coins.

Why did the Martial Spirit Hall do this?

Wouldn't it be better to send a Titled Douluo to assassinate them?

Lin Feng didn't even want to take action against those Soul Saints and Soul Douluo.

However, after thinking about it, Lin Feng summoned a few doppelgangers to surround this group of people.

One Soul Douluo or Soul Saint wouldn't give him a lot of experience points, only a few million or even a few million. But there were quite a lot of people present. If he beat them all up, he would gain more than ten million experience points.

No matter how small a mosquito was, it was still meat. With this idea in mind, Lin Feng dashed out and hit anyone he saw.

Those assassins were really scared out of their wits.

When they were having a meeting, someone would be on guard and they would cherish their own safety.

In such a safe environment, a group of burly men suddenly jumped out. Anyone would be startled.

Lin Feng's attack was a sneak attack. Under such circumstances, it was almost a one-sided beating.

A few guys wanted to fly away, but Lin Feng directly used his second soul skill, Shadow Bind, to trap them.

Some people wanted to escape through the ground, but Lin Feng directly turned the Thousand Ji Ruler into a cage and drilled into the ground to catch them.

Anyway, these assassins used all their methods, but they were all interrupted by Lin Feng. In the end, they were all beaten black and blue, and were all tied up with the Thousand Ji Ruler.

A group of evil soul masters and assassins. They usually did all kinds of evil things, and their hands were stained with countless lives.

Lin Feng didn't plan to let them go. These people deserved to die.

Lin Feng's idea was very simple. He would trap them all and wrap them up with the Thousand Ji Ruler.

In the middle, he wouldn't give them a chance to speak. He would knock them all out and use their life force to keep them alive. Every day, they would be awake for a period of time to farm experience points.

When their experience points decreased, he would just kill them.

They were just a group of executioners. Lin Feng didn't have any psychological burden when he killed them.

Lin Feng's avatar dealt with all of his avatars, and the camp was very vigilant. The originally loose group was now very tense.

Now, after eating and sleeping, there would be people from the various academies who would stand guard.

Of course, this was only the change in the other academies. To the Shrek Academy, they had been very vigilant over the past few days.

Everyone kept Lin Feng's words in mind. No matter how relaxed or comfortable the situation was, they had to be vigilant when they were outside.

This was why they were able to react when Tang San was attacked.

Earlier, the bird soul sage could have chased after Tang San a second time. However, Dai Mubai reacted quickly and blocked in front of him. Furthermore, his fifth soul ring shone, and the bird soul sage retreated.

In the carriage, Grandmaster and the others were analyzing the reason why Tang San was attacked.

"We don't know where that group of people came from. Their attacking methods are very strange. They don't feel like soul masters from the Heaven Dou Empire," Flanders said in a low voice.

"They should be sea soul masters from the coastal cities," Zhao Wuji said.

"That's most likely the case. But why would they want to assassinate Xiao San?

It doesn't make sense. "Grandmaster frowned.

If Tang San wasn't the only one, it would make sense. However, it was too strange that they only wanted to assassinate Tang San.

Not many people knew about Tang San's current identity. Furthermore, he didn't appear in the ranking competition. If the other academies wanted to hire assassins, they should have killed Dai Mubai. Why would they want to kill Tang San?

Martial Soul Hall?

Or Tang Hao's enemies?

No matter what, it didn't make sense. Grandmaster was a little confused.

"Maybe they have a grudge against my father. These people should be assassins. Someone knows my identity and hired assassins to kill me!" Tang San analyzed.

He knew that it was unlikely for the other academies to hire assassins. It was most likely Tang Hao's enemies.

Among these enemies, the Martial Spirit Palace was most likely to be the enemy.

"Martial Soul Hall?" Grandmaster said.

"If it's the Martial Soul Hall, then it's a little difficult." Dugu Bo frowned.

"The finals are in Martial Soul City. Won't we be walking into a tiger's den if we go there?"

Although Dugu Bo had become much stronger, the Martial Soul Hall was a huge force that he couldn't shake at all.

Even if Thanos was there, it would be difficult for him to defeat them.

As the strongest force on the continent, Douluo had more than ten titled soul masters. How could they fight?

Even if they included Ning Fengzhi and Kendourou Ashin, they wouldn't be a match for them!

"The Continental Elite Academy Tournament is a continental competition. Unless the Martial Soul Hall is crazy, they won't go against me in the tournament," Tang San said.

"That's right. This competition is very important. Many titled soul masters will be there. There shouldn't be a problem." Grandmaster nodded.

Lin Feng was speechless when he heard this.

That was the Martial Soul Hall's home ground. In terms of strength, it was obvious that they couldn't beat the Martial Soul Hall, okay?

If he were to make a choice for Tang San, he would definitely choose to be safe.

Now that he knew it was dangerous, he was too stubborn.

But if he were Tang San, Lin Feng would choose to go.

On one hand, Grandmaster said that there shouldn't be a problem with titled Douluo suppressing him.

On the other hand, it was because of Shrek's Seven Monsters.

As a member of the team, he had to participate in the most important competition of his life. He couldn't be absent, and his teammates couldn't be without him.

This sense of teamwork made Tang San make such an important choice.

Lin Feng remembered that in the original work, when Yue Guan wanted to kill Tang San and the others, Tang San said that he would kill himself to save the lives of the others. It was just like how he killed himself to prove his innocence in his previous life.

This kind of mentality was very simple and also very silly. However, it was precisely because of this that Tang San was so likable and had such good relations with others.

After all, who wouldn't want to be friends with such a simple guy?

"Feng Ge, do you think I should continue to Martial Soul City?" Tang San suddenly asked Lin Feng.

Lin Feng smiled. "Go ahead. It shouldn't be a big problem."

Hearing this, Tang San nodded with a smile. "See, Feng Ge said it's not a problem. It definitely won't be a problem!"

Xiao Wu and the others smiled. They didn't care about anything else. They only knew that Feng Ge's words would come true.

It was a kind of inexplicable trust. Anyway, Lin Feng's words were never wrong.

Dugu Bo heard this and smiled. "It shouldn't be a big problem."

He could hear the meaning behind Lin Feng's words. Mr. Destroy would probably appear when the time came.

Mr. Destroy was very strong!

This way, even if they couldn't defeat Martial Soul Palace in the end, they wouldn't dare to act rashly!

Just like that, the situation was more or less settled.

The night passed quickly. Although the camp was a little tense, nothing else happened.

In the next few days, Xue Qinghe transferred a group of Soul Masters from the surrounding cities to protect them. Furthermore, the security level was also raised.

After five peaceful days, they finally saw the Martial Spirit City.

Martial Soul City wasn't big. It was much smaller than Soto City and Heaven Dou City. It wasn't even one-tenth the size of Heaven Dou City.

However, the city walls were extremely thick. They were eighty meters tall and more than thirty meters thick. They were completely built of granite. From afar, they looked very majestic.

Generally speaking, city walls were quadrangular. However, what was more peculiar was that Martial Soul City was hexagonal. The city walls were full of Soul Masters patrolling. They wore Martial Soul Palace uniforms and were heavily guarded.

There was a large relief sculpture on each of the six city walls. It was the same as the six Martial Souls on the Martial Soul Token. It represented six powerful Martial Souls.

Everyone looked at the city from afar. They were very excited.

After all, they had rushed for twenty days to reach their destination. Everyone felt that it was more pleasing to the eye.

Martial Spirit City had a special rule that forbade the armies of the two empires from entering the city. That was why Xue Qinghe ordered the Imperial Knights to stand guard outside the city while the soul cultivators who were transferred back to the city were sent back the way they came.

After that, Xue Qinghe led fifteen teams into Martial Soul City.

Martial Soul City was very spacious. There weren't many people and there were very few shops. Everyone was looking around curiously.

After all, it was the first time many people came to Martial Soul City. This holy land of Soul Masters made them very curious.

A white-robed bishop from the Martial Soul Palace welcomed everyone. Since Dugu Bo and Dusty Heart didn't come out, he gave everyone enough face.

Under the white-robed bishop's lead, the group of more than two hundred people was settled in a hotel on the west side of the city.

There were many Soul Masters in Martial Soul City. The hotel's attendants were all Soul Grandmasters. It was really shocking.

After settling down, many students couldn't hold back their curiosity and strolled around the city.

Tang San and the rest were the same. They wanted to go out for a stroll.

However, the master was more cautious. He was afraid that someone would assassinate Tang San, so he wasn't willing to let everyone go out.

However, Lin Feng smiled. "It's fine. It's good to go out for a stroll."

Lin Feng's words had a lot of weight. Now that he said it was fine, the master didn't say anything else and let everyone out.

Martial Soul City. Lin Feng was still a little curious about this place.

In the past, he only dared to take a few glances from afar because he was afraid of attracting the attention of the Thousand Dao Stream.

Now that he was strong, strolling around here had a different meaning.

"The biggest building halfway up the mountain is the Pope's Palace!

I heard that the Pope lives there! "Ning Rongrong pointed to the center of the city and said.

Martial Soul City was built around a hill. The Pope's Palace was halfway up the mountain, and Douluo's Palace was at the top of the mountain.

Douluo's Palace was where the titled Douluo was buried after his death. It was also the highest place in the Martial Soul Palace. It was very pious.

Every time it was the day of the Grand Sacrifice, the Pope would personally go to Douluo's Palace to pay his respects.

It was because of the Pope's Palace and Douluo's Palace that Martial Soul City was called the holy land of soul masters after it was built.

"The place at the top is Douluo's Palace. Titled Douluo will be buried there when he dies." Ning Rongrong had some understanding of Martial Soul City.

With her explanation, Tang San and the others felt that walking in the city was a bit more meaningful.

Just as Lin Feng and Tang San were strolling around Martial Soul City.

Outside Martial Soul City, Lin Feng's clone killed all the assassins. Then, he transformed into Doctor Strange and led the Avengers to Martial Soul City.

This scene was noticed by the patrolling soul masters, who quickly informed the Martial Soul City.

The Martial Soul Palace treated Douluo very well when he showed up in person.

Titled Douluo's elders welcomed him in person. Many people ran to the city gate to watch after hearing the news.

After all, the elders of the Martial Soul Palace were not people that ordinary people could see. Everyone was curious.

.....
