Chapter 214: Setting Out for the Tournament
Chapter 214: Chapter 214: Setting Out for the TournamentA month later, a group of eight students followed two instructors as they set out for Shrek Academy in the Sun and Moon Empire.
One of the instructors produced a flying soul tool that resembled a magic carpet. It billowed out in the wind, quickly expanding to over five meters in length and more than three meters in width—just large enough to carry ten people.
One after another, they boarded the magic carpet and sat cross-legged in pairs. Fang Chang naturally sat with Zhu Zhu, as they had been walking together the whole time.
The two instructors boarded last, taking positions at the front and back flanks to act as escorts.
At the instructor’s command, the carpet slowly rose into the air. Once it reached a height of about a hundred meters, it transformed into a streak of light and shot westward.
The scenery below blurred as it rapidly swept past. On the magic carpet, the expressions of the soul masters varied, but most of their eyes shone with anticipation.
"This your first time going to the Sun and Moon Empire?" Zhu Zhu tilted her head toward Fang Chang and asked.
"More or less," Fang Chang said with a yawn. Ten thousand years ago, he had visited nearly every place in this realm, and the Sun and Moon Continent was no exception.
Back then, though, the Sun and Moon Continent hadn’t yet collided with the Douluo Continent. While they already had offensive-type soul tools, they were nowhere near as advanced as now.
At most, their level of technology had just been a bit ahead of Douluo Continent’s at the time.
"What do you mean, ’more or less’?" Zhu Zhu clearly wasn’t satisfied with his answer. "It’s very different over there. They put a lot of value on soul tools and have made far greater advancements in the field than we have."
The Sun and Moon Continent could be considered her home turf, so she explained with ease and confidence.
"They’re at least a few decades ahead of the three empires of Douluo Continent in soul tool re
"A friend of mine. Don’t worry—he’s also a re-cultivated soul beast," Zhu Zhu said.
At her words, the man’s expression softened. "There aren’t many like us left these days," he said with a self-deprecating chuckle, clapping Fang Chang on the shoulder.
At the same time, a device in his hand lit up and scanned Fang Chang’s body.
Fang Chang felt a chill on his shoulder, but the man nodded in satisfaction and said to the others, "It’s fine—he’s one of us."
Zhu Zhu also let out a breath of relief. She had been worried something might go wrong.
At the man’s words, the others who had been hiding in the shadows began stepping out and greeting Fang Chang.
Counting himself and Zhu Zhu, there were ten people here. That meant nine were re-cultivated soul beasts with hundred-thousand-year origins.
Even Fang Chang found the number a bit surprising.
"Big bro, what species are you from?" a little girl asked, approaching him.
Though she looked only eight or nine years old, Fang Chang knew she was probably at least several hundred years old.
"Same as you," Fang Chang said fondly, ruffling her hair. Her true form was a Dark Scythe Demon Spider, a direct descendant of him and Xiao Bai.
As he patted her head, the girl’s eyes grew puzzled. From this man, she somehow felt a faint, familial sense of warmth. She couldn’t help leaning in closer.
It wasn’t just her. Among the nine hundred-thousand-year soul beasts here, seven were spider-type beasts. Aside from Zhu Zhu, all of them were Fang Chang’s descendants.
So the former glory of the Spider Clan had indeed left a legacy.
