Chapter 6: **Chapter 6 - Tang Sect Team**
**Chapter 6 - Tang Sect Team**
A turquoise color travels through the deep forest. The Star Forest is even more dangerous after nightfall, but the turquoise color moving through it at this moment may be the biggest danger in this periphery!
Zhou Sichen sat cross-legged on the back of the Ice Jade Scorpion with his eyes closed, concentrating on cultivating his soul power. At the same time, he was also familiarizing himself with the four soul skills given by his second martial soul, Tianmeng.
One thing that Zhou Sichen thought was extraordinary was that his contracted beast could be used simultaneously with the second martial soul.
In other words, as long as he released the soul skills of the first martial soul in advance, after summoning all the contracted beasts, it would not affect his simultaneous use of the second martial soul.
This is definitely a huge advantage. In the future, after he achieves the title of Douluo, the nine contracted beasts in the Book of Contract will undoubtedly possess the strength of 100,000 years, or even beyond.
Moreover, he can continue to use the second martial soul, so his combat power alone is enough to subvert the cognition of ordinary people! Additionally, his contracted beast is not just a simple individual combatant; the magic of the contract book martial soul is far more than that!
While Zhou Sichen was practicing, he suddenly heard the "squeaking" sound of the Ice Jade Scorpion in his mind.
"Boss, there are three humans ahead."
Zhou Sichen opened his eyes quietly. His mental power, which was close to the level of a soul emperor, extended out, and a flicker of agility flashed in his deep eyes.
Beside the stream not far away, two men and one woman sat cross-legged by the campfire. Among them, the little boy with short black hair was concentrating on grilling the fish in his hand.
After the girl smelled the fragrance, she stared at the grilled fish eagerly, her saliva almost flowing from the corner of her mouth.
The older boy smiled helplessly, with a very doting expression.
"Aqiu! Why did it suddenly get cold?" The girl sneezed suddenly.
The boy seemed to have suddenly discovered something and instantly became alert, looking around with a sharp gaze.
...
Zhou Sichen had not intended to cause trouble, but now that he had encountered them, he could take this opportunity to make contact.
The huge Ice Jade Scorpion came into view, and the cold breath instantly spread. The three people beside the campfire stood up abruptly and swept their eyes over.
The girl looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, with long black hair tied into a ponytail hanging behind her, and a light blue outfit that complemented her youthful appearance.
She had almond-shaped eyes, big and intelligent, a straight nose, a nearly perfect oval face, and a beautiful expression of surprise.
Beside the girl was a boy who looked about the same age as her. He was slender and upright, with short dark blue hair.
Although he was not very old, he appeared elegant, though his handsome face carried a solemn expression at that moment.
When the Ice Jade Scorpion appeared, a blue lightning mark emerged between his eyebrows, with lightning snakes weaving around his body. Three soul rings—two yellow and one purple—rose up, but instead of being suspended around him like ordinary soul masters, they were on his right arm.
His right arm became extremely powerful and transformed into a fierce dragon arm, with a blue dragon coiling around him as if facing a great enemy.
The girl also raised two yellow soul rings, and a green-blue silver grass swayed between her palms.
The black-haired boy set down the grilled fish in his hand, took out a white tiger dagger, and looked at the massive Ice Jade Scorpion with horror.
The identities of these three people were self-evident: Huo Yuhao, the Huo Gua from the original work, and Beibei, the eldest disciple of teacher Tang Ya, with whom he had a teacher-student relationship.
Zhou Sichen couldn't claim to have any special feelings towards these three. From the perspective of the original work, Zhou Sichen thought Tang Ya was beautiful and kind, but she had big breasts and lacked intelligence. Beibei was calm and wise, yet not very astute.
Huo Yuhao had some psychological issues due to his upbringing, which led to some extreme thoughts. However, with proper guidance in the future, he could become a good person.
Now, Zhou Sichen had taken away the two most important advantages that belonged to Huo Yuhao in the original work. It was unclear what impact this would have on Huo Yuhao's future, but since they had met, Zhou Sichen intended to help him.
In Zhou Sichen's view, the spirit eye martial soul was also a promising martial soul. As long as the defects and deficiencies in the early stage were addressed, he could potentially achieve silver-level awakening in the future.
As for the highest level of gold-level awakening, Zhou Sichen did not dare to guarantee it.
Of course, how to assist Huo Yuhao in the future would depend on how they interacted in the subsequent stages.
Although Zhou Sichen had taken advantage of Huo Yuhao in the original work, it did not mean he intended to be a caretaker for others.
If Huo Yuhao himself was not capable and could not lead, that was a separate issue.
While Zhou Sichen was musing, the three of them also noticed him on the back of the Ice Jade Scorpion.
Huo Yuhao was extremely surprised: "Is that a human?"
Beibei and Tang Ya used the Purple Demon Eye to confirm that Zhou Sichen was indeed human, but how could a human be with such a powerful thousand-year soul beast?
Beibei and Tang Ya recognized that this was an Ice Jade Scorpion at least five thousand years old. Judging from its aura, it might even have reached a ten-thousand-year cultivation level.
Even a powerful Soul King might not dare to confront a soul beast of this level.
But isn't the Ice Jade Scorpion a soul beast unique to the Far North? How could it appear on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest, and as such a high-level existence?
Most importantly, there was a human riding on the back of the Ice Jade Scorpion!
At this moment, Zhou Sichen also looked at Beibei and the others. When their eyes met, Zhou Sichen smiled and spoke in a warm voice: "Hello, my name is Zhou Sichen. Don't be afraid; this is my partner."
Beibei and Tang Ya breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Zhou Sichen speak.
Even if they combined they could not be a match for this Ice Jade Scorpion, and escaping would be a luxury.
As long as the other party was a normal human, they had some hope of survival.
After hearing Zhou Sichen's words, the two of them were momentarily stunned: "Partner?"
Although Zhou Sichen was very handsome, with skin fairer than that of many women, he appeared to be about the same age as them.
This implied that Zhou Sichen's strength should be approximately equal to theirs; no matter how strong he was, he could not be much stronger than Beibei.
After all, Beibei was one of the twin stars of the outer courtyard. In terms of strength and talent, he was a top figure in Shrek's outer courtyard, with only a handful of people on the continent who could surpass him.
As he spoke, Zhou Sichen jumped off the back of the Ice Jade Scorpion, leaving it to wait there.
Seeing Zhou Sichen approaching them without hesitation, Beibei and the others still did not lower their guard.
Zhou Sichen couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Don't be afraid; I'm a student of Shrek Academy."
Upon hearing this, Beibei frowned. He was not just one of the twin stars of the outer school. As for the talented students of Shrek Academy, he didn't claim to know all of them, but at the very least, he recognized their faces.
It was clear that Zhou Sichen was not among them.
Noticing Beibei's expression, Zhou Sichen took out a letter of recommendation from the Soul Mentor: "This is my letter of recommendation. Although I haven't enrolled yet, it can be regarded as proof. Students of Shrek Academy should be somewhat prestigious, right?"
Beibei looked at the letter of recommendation in Zhou Sichen's hand, taking it with half belief and half doubt.
Seeing the handwritten gold stamp of the Lord of Tianyuan City on the letter, Beibei relaxed, his soul ring retracting, and smiled as he handed the letter back: "Sorry, brother. You have to protect yourself when you go out. We are students of Shrek Academy as well."
Zhou Sichen smiled slightly: "I understand. I didn't expect you to be a student of Shrek Academy too."
