Douluo: Being kidnapped into the Holy Spirit Church at the beginning

Day three.

In the early morning, when the first ray of sunlight appeared in the east, the streets of Mingdu had already turned into another strange scene.

Soldiers covered in silver armor lined up in two rows, starting from the entrance of Mingyue Hotel and extending outward to the competition venue.

Moreover, the passage they formed was under complete martial law, and the people were required to retreat fifteen meters away and not to approach.

Compared with the previous competition hosted by the Xing Luo Empire, Mingdu, as the first city on the continent, can obviously accommodate a larger number of people, so it is natural for the Sun Moon Empire to mobilize the army to maintain order.

These soldiers all exuded a murderous aura and fluctuations of soul power. It was obvious that they were an army composed entirely of soul masters.

The five-yearly Four-Nation Tour tournament should also have such a configuration.

As the door of Mingyue Hotel opened, 167 teams were ready to go and headed for the competition venue.

The competition venue is located in the suburbs on the east side of Mingdu. It can be seen from afar after leaving the Mingdu building complex. At this time, the competition venue is already crowded with people. Soldiers maintain order and divide the crowd into areas to isolate them from the competition venue.

On the north side of the competition venue, there is a high platform, which is a rostrum built with metal splicing.

"This feels much stronger than the Xing Luo Empire..."

Xu Sanshi sat in the Tang Sect's preparation area, looking at the competition venue below that was emitting a metallic luster, and couldn't help but sigh.

The competition venue below looks majestic. The competition stage is ten meters high and over a hundred meters in diameter. The wide platform is made entirely of metal and has a core magic array hooked on it, making it look like a huge soul guide.

When they competed in the Xingluo Empire, they used a platform made of rocks...

"Of course, this is my...Sun Moon Empire, but I believe that our Tang Sect's soul guidance technology will be as advanced in the future."

He Caitou said this with some pride in his tone, but changed his words in time.

"Second Brother, Third Brother, stop talking nonsense."

Hearing what Xu Sanshi and He Caitou said, Huo Yuhao on the side quickly signaled with his eyes, because not far in front of their Tang Sect was the Xing Luo Academy representing the Xing Luo Empire.

They saw Xu Jiujiu looking at them with a typical smile on his face.

Compared to five years ago, the princess of the Xing Luo Empire looked even more beautiful. She was wearing a gorgeous red dress, revealing her white swan neck, and she exuded an indescribable heroic spirit.

Xu Jiujiu looked at Xu Sanshi with her beautiful eyes and raised her eyebrows, obviously having heard something.

Smiling is a courtesy, but it is also a warning.

"Hahaha, Xingluo City, known as the city where the sun never sets, is more historical than Mingdu."

Xu Sanshi laughed and hid behind He Caitou.

After Xu Jiujiu nodded slightly towards Huo Yuhao, he withdrew his gaze.

“This Huo Yuhao has extreme attributes, and he can still break through to the fifty-sixth level Soul King at this age. He is obviously a person with extraordinary talent. No wonder my brother wants to win him over.”

Xu Jiujiu thought thoughtfully that over the years, because of her brother Xu Jiawei's trust in her, she also began to help him handle some government affairs.

"But I don't know how that person is doing now. He should have cultivated to the Soul Emperor level."

Xu Jiujiu's heart moved, and she couldn't help but think of the young man who defeated her with his own hands that year.

After being defeated by him, she secretly vowed to fight him again, and this time she must be on top!
But in such a big competition, according to convention, apart from the official, the information of each team will not be leaked before the game, so she didn't know whether she would come or not.

"Jiujiu, look at that man!"

At this moment, an old female voice sounded behind Xu Jiujiu. Xu Jiujiu followed the voice's gaze and saw a team in white robes entering the viewing platform.

This team is quite unique. Each member has a prominent part on their body, such as thick legs, long arms, or silvery skin...

"This is Jiang Jue. I didn't expect him to actually come to participate in the competition, and he's representing the Body Sect."

When Xu Jiujiu saw one of the handsome and tall figures, her beautiful eyes widened instantly, but it was also somewhat expected. After all, it was her brother who had caused Jiang Jue to be abducted by the Body Sect, and had also planned to kill three birds with one stone, but in the end, none of the three birds succeeded...

Even when the Body Sect went to rob Mingde Hall, they were outwitted by the Sun and Moon Empire, who slandered them as the righteous men from their Xingluo Empire who robbed Mingde Hall.

"Grandma Manyi, can you see Jiang Jue's current level of cultivation?"

Xu Jiujiu asked softly to the old woman behind him.

"I can't tell."

Manyi's eyes narrowed and she shook her head slightly.

"You have practiced a secret method that can conceal your own cultivation level? That's interesting."

Xu Jiujiu murmured in a low voice. Even Grandma Manyi, who was a Titled Douluo, couldn't tell. It must be that Jiang Jue practiced some secret method.

As for why he was not wearing a soul guide that concealed his aura, Xu Jiujiu automatically ruled out this idea in his mind, because the Body Sect has always rejected soul guides.

But it doesn’t matter. In the competition, as long as he takes action, she will know. Besides, she is a Soul Emperor now, and not an ordinary Soul Emperor.

At this moment, from a distance, a group of people arrived, escorted by the Royal Soul Instructor Corps, and came to the bottom of the rostrum.

This team of carriages and horses was completely golden. In the front was a dragon chariot that was pulled by thirty-two horned and scaled horses and looked like a small palace. Behind it followed guards and a large number of officials from the Sun and Moon Empire who were dressed in gorgeous clothes and official uniforms.

The dragon chariot stopped in front of the rostrum, and a very iconic wheelchair was pushed out. Sitting on it was a young man, who was none other than Xu Tianran.

When He Caitou saw this scene, he clenched his hands tightly and a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes.

Only the emperor can ride the dragon chariot. It is obvious what it means for Xu Tianran to openly ride the dragon chariot.

"Meet the regent, meet the regent."

At the same time, except for the Royal Soul Instructor Corps on defense, all the officials present knelt down and saluted Crown Prince Xu Tianran.

Xu Tianran was pushed onto the podium with a smile on his face by Orange. Looking at the huge crowd below and listening to the compliments from all around him, a feeling of pride surged in his heart.

That's right, he has now changed from regent to king regent.

This was of course voluntarily conferred upon him by his unconscious, kind and benevolent father.

Now, if his father gives him something, he will take it. If his father doesn’t give him anything, he will snatch it away.

"quiet!"

A deep voice suddenly sounded, and a strong pressure instantly spread throughout the venue. The moment this voice appeared, everyone felt a darkness in front of their eyes, as if there was a dark cloud pressing down on their heads, and even their breathing became rapid.

All the discussions disappeared instantly in this low voice, and the entire competition venue and the viewing area of ​​more than 100,000 soldiers and civilians became silent in an instant, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

An old but tall figure stood proudly in the sky, it was the Dragon Emperor Douluo Long Xiaoyao.

After Xu Tianran saluted Long Xiaoyao in the sky, he spoke loudly into the soul guide loudspeaker in front of him.

"Dear citizens of the Sun-Moon Empire and guests from afar, I, Regent King Xu Tianran, welcome you.

"I... I declare that this Continental Youth High-level Spirit Master Elite Competition has officially begun!"

It was a very simple opening statement, without any unnecessary nonsense or high-sounding official rhetoric.

"The regent is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old."

The people of the Sun-Moon Empire knelt on the ground collectively, paying homage to the regent who, although sitting in a wheelchair, would soon ascend the throne and become the new generation of emperor.
