1008: Muyun and Qianhai Kingdom
"Smash the Soul Card? How can that be?!" Wen Xiu Cheng was puzzled, his tone involuntarily rising slightly.
He clearly couldn't understand why Du Xingchen would ask him to do that.
Although the Purple Dragon Army was already destroyed and dead, and the Soul Card was useless, even as a memento, it was quite significant to Wen Xiu Cheng himself!
Du Xingchen's expression was calm: "If I'm not mistaken, it was the Purple Dragon Army Soul Card that guided you to find these Military Souls, right?"
Wen Xiu Cheng looked at Du Xingchen in surprise, then nodded: "That's right, when I was in Taobao City before, this Soul Card suddenly heated up, and it was precisely because of its change that I went to a certain shop and discovered these Military Souls!"
"Then that's good," Du Xingchen said, making things up based on the information he understood from the original work: "A normal Soul Card would not have any reaction with a Military Formation Master set."
"The reason it is like this can only explain that there is a Legacy within this Soul Card! A Legacy left by that Military Formation Master belonging to your Eternal Night Kingdom Royal Family!"
"The Legacy within sensed the Military Souls of the Purple Dragon Army, and naturally, it would have that unusual change."
"If you smash the Soul Card, you will definitely obtain the Legacy that that Military Formation Master left for you, the orphan of the Eternal Night Kingdom."
Regarding these matters, Du Xingchen directly told Wen Xiu Cheng the answer.
Wen Xiu Cheng in the original work did not have such good treatment.
Because the things he gave out were all naturally taken by Moyun.
Then later, Moyun accidentally smashed the Purple Dragon Army Soul Card, coincidentally obtaining the Military Formation Master's Legacy within, and thus reasonably becoming the Master of the six thousand Purple Dragon Army heroic souls.
"There's a Legacy in here?" Reaching out to take the warm, jade-like Soul Card, Wen Xiu Cheng's expression was moved.
Because he was still holding the Military Formation Master set, the Soul Card was still emitting waves of heat!
"Xingchen, I believe you!" After a final glance at the Soul Card in his hand, Wen Xiu Cheng directly smashed it onto the ground!
"Bang ~"
A piece of shattered jade stone scattered and rolled across the bluestone ground.
The Soul Card was completely shattered.
Looking around with no movement, Wen Xiu Cheng took two deep breaths, a hint of disappointment flashing in his eyes.
However, in the very next breath, the scattered shattered jade stones on the ground suddenly erupted with a glowing brilliance!
Under a rhythmic pulsation, these fluorescent lights instantly transformed into streaks of white light, surging into the air and converging!
Then, this integrated information, like a long cloud and rainbow, instantly poured towards Wen Xiu Cheng!
Du Xingchen stood by, clearly seeing that the Military Formation Master's Legacy was converging towards Wen Xiu Cheng's mind.
Compared to before, Wen Xiu Cheng, who was no longer being 'sucked dry' by the protagonist Moyun, would walk towards a powerful path much faster.
Of course, this was something Du Xingchen was happy to see.
After all, he was the Captain of the team now, and if his teammates were strong, he would also be relaxed.
And the more important reason was that his own slow and tedious Cultivation was really too bitter, too tiring, and too troublesome.
Relatively speaking, the strength obtained through the System's lucky draw and cheats was more comfortable and cost-effective.
However, to continue the lucky draw and become stronger, he still needed to suppress Moyun.
After all this time, he didn't know where Moyun had gone, but he did miss him strangely.
...
"Achoo!" In a magnificent palace, a Man suddenly sneezed.
"What's wrong, Brother Moyun? At your level, can you still catch a cold?" From the seat of honor, a young Man sitting on a throne carved with a four-clawed flood Dragon looked at Moyun, whose eyes were like torches, and joked.
"Maybe it's these warblers and swallows, the smell of rouge is too strong, and Moyun, this pure fellow, isn't used to it." On the other side, a person's voice carried an unfriendly tone.
"How are you talking? Moyun is my distinguished guest, so speak properly. Why are you being sarcastic?!" The Man in the seat of honor looked coldly at the person expressing his emotions.
The other party did not speak, silently picking up dishes and eating meat.
In response, Moyun rubbed his nose and remained silent.
...
Yunyong Academy.
After thinking of Moyun, Du Xingchen's thoughts then jumped to the Goddess currently in the team.
"It's not like I have to target the protagonist's wool only when I'm near him. Starting with the second female lead, the Goddess, is also good." Thinking this, Du Xingchen took a final look at Wen Xiu Cheng, who had already begun to sit cross-legged and receive the infusion of Legacy knowledge, and then walked towards the interior of the School.
Du Xingchen went to find the Goddess.
With a clear purpose, it didn't take much time.
When he arrived at the Goddess's temporary residence in the Academy, he could see that she was currently sitting cross-legged in Cultivation.
In terms of Cultivation, the Goddess had actually been somewhat slacking off all along.
Her talent was no worse than anyone in the first team, but due to her concern for Moyun, her Cultivation had basically been in a state of hitting the net three days a week and drying it for four.
Now, after experiencing that scene in the Divine Hall, she had clearly begun to work hard.
"Who?!" Hearing the movement, Zhongsun Yiqing frowned and opened her eyes, turning her head to look.
What appeared in her eyes was precisely the Du Xingchen who affected her mood.
"It seems there's nothing we need to talk about between us." Looking at Du Xingchen, the Goddess's expression remained calm, even carrying a lingering indifference.
Clearly, she was merely bound to this team by Du Xingchen using the Nirvana Pill, and she had no intention of showing any respect for Du Xingchen, this Captain.
Du Xingchen didn't mind this: "Isn't Goddess on very good terms with Moyun? We are enemies with Moyun. Now that you're mixed up with us, aren't you afraid of Moyun getting angry?"
With his arms crossed, Du Xingchen leaned against a stone pillar, his gaze glancing towards the side at the shimmering lake surface under the moonlight, his tone carrying a hint of casualness.
"This is my business, you don't need to worry about it!" Zhongsun Yiqing seemed very annoyed that Du Xingchen mentioned Moyun.
"This isn't just Goddess's business," Du Xingchen shook his head and said, "Regarding the relationship between you and Moyun, I think you should make it clear."
"At least, make it clear to Sun Yingying and the others."
"Otherwise, those teammates will definitely be unable to accept you because of the unclear relationship between you and Moyun, and if they can't accept you, our team will definitely not be able to exert its full strength during combat, and we won't be able to get a good ranking then."
"If it really comes to that, I'm afraid the Nirvana Pill... will also have nothing to do with Goddess."
"You really meddle in a lot!" The Goddess was indignant in her heart.
While clenching her fists, she fell into a moment of silence.
"I will cut ties with Moyun." After a long time, Zhongsun Yiqing, in some unknown mood, uttered this reply.
If it were before, even if she were killed, she wouldn't be able to say such a thing!
But now.
Thinking of Golden Nanny's plight that made her heart ache, and even more so thinking of the two innocent Children killed by Moyun, Zhongsun Yiqing suddenly felt that Moyun was not such a perfect Man that she couldn't let go of.
It seemed... that even if she left him, she wouldn't need to go through life and death struggles.
It was also the guilt in her heart towards Golden Nanny that overcame her feelings for Moyun.
To help Golden Nanny get the Nirvana Pill, she was willing to cut ties with Moyun.
Hearing this answer, Du Xingchen nodded in satisfaction.
Compared to the Goddess herself, he actually understood more.
The reason why the Goddess would do this was partly due to her guilt towards Golden Nanny.
And the most important reason was that her Luck as the second female lead had been weakened too much!
After taking out a Nirvana Pill, she herself was basically fully supervised by the Divine Hall. In this situation, the Goddess herself couldn't provide more convenience to the protagonist Moyun.
Unable to help Moyun, she was also in a state of being semi-abandoned by the Heavenly Dao.
In this state, bringing up the matter of Golden Nanny, making her feel guilty, and even resent the protagonist Moyun, was the best time and had the best effect, and thus it led to the promise to not contact Moyun at this moment.
"Okay, I look forward to you clarifying your relationship with Moyun to the outside world." Seeing that his goal was easily achieved, Du Xingchen left without hesitation.
Saying he looked forward to her clarification was in fact equivalent to looking forward to the System's reward.
...
The next day.
Qianhai Country, one of the five great countries on the continent.
Below a magnificent Yanwu Arena in the Imperial City of Qianhai Country, there were more than ten young people with powerful auras!
These were the Heavenly Prodigies of the Qianhai Country Royal Family, on par with the Heavenly Prodigies of Linshan Country.
However, compared to Linshan Country, Qianhai Country surpassed Linshan Country in both territory and population, so the Heavenly Prodigy team of their own country was naturally stronger and the lineup was even more luxurious!
And at this moment, the true members of the team had still not been finalized.
Originally, the members of Qianhai Country were completely determined two years ago. Whether they were official members or substitutes, everything had been arranged properly.
The reason why the members had not been determined even on the day of the Soul Card Master College Entrance Examination registration was because of a person who had infiltrated the Qianhai Country Royal Family Heavenly Prodigy team a few days ago.
"Moyun, you boy can't lose when you go on stage later." Below the stage, a handsome Man wearing a flood Dragon robe eagerly patted the shoulder of Moyun, whose eyes were like torches: "As long as you can defeat Xiao Ba, you can replace Xiao Ba and become an official member of our Qianhai Country Royal Family team!"
"Haha, Captain, you should save it. This kid can defeat me? How can a Four-Star Soul Card Master possibly defeat me, a Peak Five-Star Soul Card Master?!" Standing on the other side, the burly Man laughed wildly.
Originally, he was the kind of honest and Depressed person, but after seeing Moyun as his opponent, before going on stage, he still couldn't help but laugh out loud for some reason.
"Xiao Ba, don't underestimate Moyun!" The Prince looked at the big guy: "You'll be crying during the battle later."
"Captain, you're favoring Moyun too much, aren't you? We know you want to connect with the Goddess of the Divine Hall through Moyun and hold hands, but you can't talk nonsense with your eyes open like this. No matter how strong Moyun is, can he compare to Xiao Ba?"
A voice of dissatisfaction arose from the team, precisely the one from the banquet last night.
Regarding Moyun as a teammate, among the Heavenly Prodigy team of the Qianhai Country Royal Family, only the Captain expressed great joy.
And everyone naturally knew the reason for this.
That was naturally because their Captain, the current Prince of Qianhai Country, wanted to establish a connection with the Goddess of the Divine Hall through Moyun!
In the beginning.
They also heard about the love-hate relationship between Moyun and the Goddess, and even learned that the Goddess actually protected Moyun, an unknown nobody, in that situation.
At that time, everyone also saw their Captain's distorted expression and hysterical state of mind.
After learning that Moyun was later punished by the Hall Master of the Divine Hall and imprisoned, their Captain was even happier for a while.
But just two days ago.
Their team encountered Moyun, who should have been in prison, in the Demonic Beast Forest within Qianhai Country!
It was that encounter that led to the current situation.
The Captain of the Royal Family Heavenly Prodigies, who was also the current Prince, learned from Moyun that there was no relationship between him and the Goddess at all!
He also learned that the Goddess was very obedient to Moyun.
Moyun even said that if he told the Goddess to go East, she would go East, and if he told her to go West, she would go West!
These pieces of information made the Prince immediately regard Moyun as a benefactor!
Even when Moyun proposed to join their team and participate in the Soul Card Master National College Entrance Examination together, the Prince did not object.
"Moyun, if you officially become a member of my team, don't forget our agreement." The Third Prince of Qianhai Country ignored the dissatisfaction of his teammates around him, lowered his voice to Moyun, and spoke with suppressed emotion.
"Don't worry, after I become your teammate, I will naturally introduce the Goddess to you."
"The Goddess won't disobey me." Moyun nodded slightly, not feeling any difficulty with the other party's request at all.
His heart at this moment was filled with more hatred!
Hatred towards Du Xingchen and his teammates from the Academy!
"Du Xingchen, I am now joining the team of the Qianhai Country Royal Family. This team is ten times stronger than yours! When we reach the Soul Card Master College Entrance Examination arena, I really look forward to your expressions!"
