Sometimes masters can make people feel scared, especially in situations like this, which always remind people of the mad scientists depicted in literary works from previous lives.
Perhaps the master also has some characteristics of those mad scientists, such as his love for the things he studies and his curiosity about things he doesn't understand. That curiosity is the scariest.
Just like this sentence, curiosity killed the cat. And here, Zhao Xuan is that cat.
So, Zhao Xuan asked tremblingly: "Master, are you okay?"
The heat in the master's eyes receded like the tide, and then his face was as stiff as ever, expressionless and with an inexplicable sense of seriousness.
He looked at Zhao Xuan seriously for a long time, and after seeing Zhao Xuan's heart, he said in a deep voice: "Follow me."
The master acted vigorously and resolutely. After leaving a few words, he walked out of the house.
Zhao Xuan quickly followed him: "Master, where are you going?"
…
The forest south of Soto City.
Lush trees rise from the ground like a canopy, and the summer sun shines through the gaps between the leaves on the ground, full of mottled light and shadow.
A summer breeze brought some coolness and the leaves rustled.
"Master, what are we doing here?" Zhao Xuan asked confusedly following the master.
The master signaled him to silence, and then started wandering in the forest.
Zhao Xuan didn't know what the master wanted to do, so he had to follow the master obediently.
After walking aimlessly in the forest for a long time, the master suddenly stopped.
"Grandmaster?"
"Did you see the pigback in front of you? Catch him." The master pointed at a pigback that was leisurely strolling not far ahead.
"Backbone pig?"
Zhao Xuan turned his head and looked around, and saw a pigback wandering leisurely under the shadow of a tree not far away. From time to time, it would stretch out its mouth to bite off the berries on the low shrubs next to it and chew them in big mouthfuls.
With Zhao Xuan's current strength, it was not easy to capture a small backbone pig. Zhao Xuan appeared behind the backbone pig in a flash.
The pigback who was leisurely enjoying the berries suddenly felt a cool breeze coming from behind. Just as he was about to turn his head to look, a pair of white and jade-like hands quickly grabbed its two hind legs and lifted it up.
"…………"
The piglet screamed in panic and tried to break free with both feet, but was caught by Zhao Xuan's iron-like hands and unable to move.
Zhao Xuan ducked back to the master, weighed the struggling pig, and asked: "Master, why are you catching it?"
The master said with some excitement and seriousness: "Kill it, then use your thunder and lightning to feel the existence of the soul ring, and stop if you can."
Zhao Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then he suddenly became enlightened. He finally knew what the master was planning to do, and he felt like he couldn't laugh or cry.
The master is doubting that Zixiao Divine Thunder is his third martial spirit!
Although the Purple Sky Divine Thunder is indeed his original power, it is different from the two martial arts souls of mobile phones and computers. As a kind of divine punishment power with great power, it is impossible to accept the Zixiao Divine Thunder.
External force!
He looked at the struggling backbone pig in his hand, then shrugged helplessly, pinched his neck with one hand at lightning speed, and then exerted a slight force.
"Crack." There was an inaudible sound, and the pigback ended its life.
Then a white soul ring slowly floated out from its body.
The master looked at Zhao Xuan expectantly. Zhao Xuan had no other choice but to sit up cross-legged.
Wisps of purple sky thunder flashed on Zhao Xuan's body, bright and beautiful yet extremely dangerous, beating like happy little dragons.
The master instinctively felt a chill rising from the bottom of his heart, and the color of fear reflected in his heart.
And the soul ring of the pig-backed pig was like white snow coincident with the spring. It began to melt rapidly from the side close to Zhao Xuan, and the little white soul rings began to collapse, and then disappeared between the sky and the earth.
Zhao Xuan opened his eyes and glanced at the master quietly. The master was contemplating, his brows furrowed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
After a long time, the master spoke with a hint of exhaustion and confusion in his voice: "It's not a martial spirit."
"Let's go back." The master sighed. What a headache. Why is there so many strange things happening to this kid?
"By the way, let's take that back pig back for a snack tonight."
Zhao Xuan looked at the pigback in his hand and said silently, I'm really sorry for causing you to encounter such a disaster suddenly, and to be ravaged again after your death.
But thinking about the smell of the pig back last time, Zhao Xuan just wanted to say, it smells so good!
After returning to the academy and handing the pig back to the cafeteria, Zhao Xuan ran to the master and asked: "Master, where are the mistresses and the others?"
The master took a sip of hot tea to relieve the pressure and said slowly: "I'll accept the punishment. Their fighting consciousness is too poor. Although the mistress is good, she also has many problems."
"Well... and you, I have also watched your battle with Teacher Li Yusong, and my response was good, but I still lack actual combat experience."
"By the way, let me give you a task." The master put down the hot tea in his hand.
"What mission?"
"Help me supervise them and don't let them cheat."
"Huh? What kind of punishment did you arrange?"
"Without soul power, each person carries a basket of stones from the academy to Soto City, a round trip of ten rounds. Of course, the weight of the stones is different. I personally customized them based on their physical fitness."
Zhao Xuan's eyes twitched. You must have planned this in advance, otherwise you wouldn't have prepared these things in advance.
Moreover, the purpose of the master is probably not to punish, but to test their ability to unite and cooperate. This place is only a few kilometers away from Soto City, but ten round trips are dozens of kilometers away.
It is still very difficult to run dozens of kilometers on a large pile of rocks, and it is even more impossible to complete it if you are on your own.
After all, not everyone has the physical fitness of Zhao Xuan. Even Dai Mubai, who has a beast martial soul, is not much better than other soul masters before he is possessed by a martial soul, and even if he is possessed by a martial soul, it is still necessary.
Consuming soul power.
"Speaking of which, I actually wanted to prepare one for you, but..." the master said suddenly, and then pinched his eyebrows in distress.
He really didn't know what method to use to punish a person with the physical quality possessed by a titled Douluo Beast martial spirit.
Zhao Xuan laughed twice, did the master have nothing to do with him?
