From Douluo Dalu to Queen

Chapter 276 Return to Wuhun City

Wuhun City, in a sense, refers to the human gathering area in the Wuhun Forest.

In addition to the main city, the Spirit Hall also built eight citadels on the outskirts of the Spirit Forest. These eight citadels are not particularly large and exist roughly as a transit station, responsible for reviewing the teams preparing to go to the Spirit City. Only after passing the review of the Spirit Hall here can they take the official road built by the Spirit Hall. The Spirit Hall will regularly send people to clean up the area around the official road, and the soldiers and horses of several citadels will also frequently patrol and train on the official road, so the safety factor is extremely high.

It is almost impossible to sneak into the main city.

Today is the day when contestants from the two empires arrive in Wuhun City. The Pope has ordered that no outsiders are allowed to enter or leave, and has sent more than 100,000 fully armed troops to stand guard on both sides of the nearly 100-kilometer-long official road. This is an unprecedented level of attention.

In addition to the team of soul masters, the Spirit Hall will also train many armies of ordinary people. These troops are recruited from ordinary people with extremely strong physiques. In battle, they are commanded by soul masters and they also fight against the ordinary armies of the two empires.

Although these troops had no soul power, they carried a kind of majesty just standing there. It was obvious that this was the Spirit Hall declaring to the contestants from the two empires, telling them which force was more worthy of their lives.

Xue Qinghe, who was riding a white horse and walking at the front of the team, revealed a hint of solemnity at the right moment. Although this trip was just a return home for her, the people from the sects were not easy to deal with. It would be bad if they noticed that there was something unusual on his expression.

On the other hand, Dai Mengyue, who was walking side by side with her, had a calm expression on her face and didn't care about any of this at all.

"Ah, it's been a long time since I came back. The Wuhun Forest is still so beautiful. It's much better than the Star Dou Great Forest." Leng Xiyao couldn't help but sigh as she looked at the fully armed guards around her.

The journey was smooth and peaceful, with no one chasing or blocking them. It was not known whether they were frightened by Tang San or for other reasons. In short, Leng Xiyao's plan went very smoothly. The night before entering the Wuhun City, she had already sent Da Huang to lead the main force to follow the plan.

Qin Menglan followed her with a heavy heart. Although she had run away very freely back then, she didn't know how to face her parents if she saw them again.

After all, seven or eight years have passed now. If her parents begged her for forgiveness, Qin Menglan was really not sure if she could still be so cruel.

"Lanlan, what are you thinking about?" Leng Xiyao patted Qin Menglan's little head and asked with concern.

"No, nothing." Qin Menglan quickly slapped away Leng Xiyao's mischievous hand, her pretty face slightly flushed. There were so many people around watching her, it was so embarrassing.

However, the people around them ignored the flirting between the two. After all, there are many sisters who have such a good relationship, and it is nothing surprising.

"Are you worried about your parents?" Leng Xiyao could probably guess what Qin Menglan was thinking. After all, Qin Menglan was only a six-year-old child at that time, and her mind was not that mature. If her parents were still alive, if they found out that Qin Menglan was so ambitious, they would definitely come to bother her.

Qin Menglan nodded.

If they just want money or something, it doesn't matter, but I'm afraid that they have gained benefits from the Spirit Hall and will use the emotional card to destroy Sister Yaoyao's plan.

Leng Xiyao didn't take this potential threat seriously. Instead, she looked at the three figures in front of the team with interest: "This time, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect is going to do something big."

As one of the VIPs of the Spirit Hall, Ning Fengzhi would not have come with the players' team. However, as the prince's teacher, he could use the reason of protecting Xue Qinghe's safety to bring the two masters, Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, to the Spirit City and take advantage of the turmoil to gain some benefits.

A few unfriendly figures also mixed in with the entourage of the motorcade. All of this symbolized that undercurrents were surging in Wuhun City.

However, the contestants were unaware of these things. The little monsters were discussing the next tactics intensely with the master. Several other elemental academies also came together to try to avenge their previous defeat. It seemed very normal.

The convoy was moving at a fairly fast pace, and soon they arrived at the gate of Wuhun City.

A platinum bishop had been waiting here with a group of red cardinals. When the team arrived, he greeted them with a smile, "Dear contestants and distinguished guests, thank you for your hard work on the journey. Please take a day off and adjust to your best condition for tomorrow's finals."

"Thank you, sir." Xue Qinghe dismounted from his horse and bowed, with a very polite manner.

The cardinal in white waved his hand, and the civil servants of the Spirit Hall behind him stepped forward, divided the entire convoy into different teams, and led them into the Spirit City one by one.

The reception staff arranged by the Spirit Hall were all pretty girls. The old lecher Ma Hongjun stared at them with his eyes wide open. Oscar also couldn't help but glance at them a few times, but was quickly pulled back by Ning Rongrong by the ear.

Dai Mubai, on the other hand, seemed to be unable to see anything at the moment. He just stayed close to Zhu Zhuqing, as if they had endless whispers to talk about.

Soon, a receptionist came forward with a few ordinary members and said softly to Flanders and the master who were in the lead: "Hello, are you the Shrek team? Please get off the car and follow me."

Flanders nodded, then led the little monsters off their horses. Every competition in the Spirit Hall must have such a process, the purpose is to let these students see what is the holy land of the spirit master world and stroll around in the Spirit City.

We are all soul masters anyway, so it’s no big deal to just walk a few steps or even run around Wuhun City a few times.

Leng Xiyao looked at the formation that covered the entire Wuhun City and narrowed her eyes slightly.

When she left, Leng Xiyao naturally couldn't see this thing because of her extremely low strength. Now, with the help of Tian Meng's mental power, this layer of protective shield is visible and is placed in front of her.

"Tian Meng, go and take a look." Ignoring the receptionist beside her and the many eyes that were spying on her from all directions, Leng Xiyao pointed to the city wall.

Tian Meng understood and hurried to the base of the city wall, touched the wall covered by the protective shield, squatted down and touched the ground, then nodded to Leng Xiyao.

This operation was done blatantly in front of the Platinum Bishop and a group of cardinals. However, Tian Meng did not do anything out of line and there was no reason to blame him. Although the Platinum Bishop was ordered to come and keep an eye on Leng Xiyao, there did not seem to be anything strange about his behavior.

What can be revealed from a detection process of less than ten seconds?
