Douluo Dalu: The Frozen Throne

Chapter 208: Disciples of the Main Body, Festivals and First Encounters
After the knockout rounds, there will naturally be the so-called round-robin tournament.

The round-robin tournament is not as intense as the knockout tournament, but the competition methods are more diverse and complex. This is when the participants' individual strength and teamwork are often tested more, rather than relying solely on individual strength.

Of course, at present, the matches on their side are basically decided by Luo Qinghan and Meng Ning, and the others have not even shown up. After all, none of their opponents can resist the mental attacks of the Soul Saint level. As long as they go on the court, they will be killed instantly, not to mention Meng Ning's assistance. The dreams created by the Black Demon were the most terrifying control-type soul skills ten thousand years ago. Now that the Black Demon's martial soul has reappeared in the world, it has attracted a lot of attention for a while.

Shu Yan would occasionally go to see the fun, but it was really just occasionally.

After obtaining part of the Snow Empress's origin, he had been busy in seclusion in recent days to improve his own bloodline, and naturally paid less attention to the affairs of the outside world.

After finally suppressing the raging blood in his body today, Shu Yan was immediately dragged out of the princess's mansion by Xu Jiujiu. These days are special traditional festivals in the Xingluo Empire, somewhat similar to the Spring Festival in Shu Yan's previous life. It can be said that the whole country is celebrating. During this special time period, Xu Jiujiu plans to arrange for everyone to go out and get together. This is also Ruan Qinyu's request.

Shu Yan let Xu Jiujiu pull him out of the palace, while his mental power roughly scanned the surroundings of the palace.

Well...most of them are low-level soul masters, but there are a few with strong auras. Shu Yan is very familiar with the aura of one of them, he is the Great Strength Douluo worshipped by the royal family. As for the other strong ones, Titled Douluo did not notice them, but there are quite a few Soul Douluo.

Seeing how energetic Giant Strength Douluo is, Chicken Leg Douluo Xuanzi probably hasn't come to Xingluo City yet. Seeing that Giant Strength Douluo has helped him several times before and has shown goodwill to him repeatedly, he will not let Giant Strength Douluo go to Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong foolishly this time.

If this matter gets out, it would be ok if both sides tacitly agree to a peaceful solution. After all, a Titled Douluo attacking two Great Spirit Masters is essentially bullying the weak. If Giant Strength Douluo is not a royal worshiper, he can do whatever he wants. After all, the law of the world is the survival of the fittest. But he also has the title of the Imperial Worshiper. This is not simply bullying the weak. In serious cases, it may even affect the reputation of the Empire. Xu Jiujiu does not want to see such a bad situation for the Empire...

The streets were bustling with activity. Xu Jiujiu and Shu Yan did not travel in a carriage. Instead, they held hands and strolled along the roadside towards their destination.

When they turned a corner, Shu Yan frowned slightly, and Xu Jiujiu paused for a moment, then she sent a message to Shu Yan:
"Two Soul Douluos, they seem to be from the main sect."

As for why Xu Jiujiu could tell at a glance that the two men were from the Body Sect, it was actually very simple. The two men looked very ordinary, but their figures were particularly peculiar, and could even be said to be somewhat uncoordinated. One had a particularly thick right arm, while the other had a thin figure and a very large head. He looked inexplicably like Big Head Son.

A strange appearance is a characteristic of almost all the people in the body sect. The martial soul is that part of the body, and that part will be extraordinarily different from the others. Xu Jiujiu and Shu Yan have seen many people from the body sect, and they have even seen a spirit soul master named Lingnian Douluo who has reached level ninety-six in cultivation. Naturally, they are not unfamiliar with the body sect.

"Don't worry about them. Two Soul Douluos can't cause any trouble."

Shu Yan responded casually, not really caring.

When the four people passed each other, Lang Ya and Yu Tao frowned slightly at the same time. They turned around to look at the backs of Shu Yan and Xu Jiujiu, and felt them carefully for a long time, but only found a slight fluctuation of soul power on the two of them.

After a pause, Lang Ya said:
"Let's go. Maybe there's just something wrong with our recent training. Maybe our perceptions are a little suspicious. We're just an ordinary couple in the honeymoon period."

Yu Tao always felt something was wrong, but he couldn't tell why. Finally, he spread his hands and followed Lang Ya's footsteps.

……

The gathering place chosen by Xu Jiujiu was a quiet and low-key sky garden, but if you look closely, you will find that although the decoration here looks simple, it is actually made of top-quality materials. Even the maids who accompany them have some soul power in their bodies, and each of them is beautiful and charming. Obviously, it is not something that ordinary people can afford. This place belongs to an old earl and is one of the favorite gathering places for dignitaries in Xingluo City. There are many high-level cocktail parties held here, but today, there are very few people here. There is only a group of people leaning on the terrace casually to enjoy the breeze and chat.

This atmosphere is very good. Although it seems a bit dull, it is rare in terms of warmth. After all, due to their martial spirits or experiences, there are almost no people in the group who are particularly cheerful and lively. They are not very interested in bustle and most of the time prefer a quiet and free environment.

As night fell, everyone released a few Wenying birds that had been prepared long ago. This kind of bird symbolizes happiness in the Xingluo Empire. When releasing them, they made a wish, allowing the free Wenying birds to fly far away with hope and happiness.

After night fell completely, everyone had dinner and then left one after another to do what they wanted to do.

Shu Yan took Xu Jiujiu and Ling Luochen walking on the street under the night. Xu Jiujiu and Ling Luochen walked in front hand in hand. Shu Yan, as the abandoned one, could only follow behind. The three of them talked and laughed until they came to the most prosperous street in the entire Xingluo City.

The combination of handsome men and beautiful women is always particularly eye-catching. Even if the three of them were just walking on the street, they still attracted countless eyes. However, due to the special nature of their identities, Xu Jiujiu used the skull skill to slightly change her own aura, and it would be unlikely for anyone without a Contra level to see through her true appearance.

It was the prime time of night in Xingluo City, and because of the recent grand event, the flow of people was two to three times that of normal times. When passing an intersection, Ling Luochen suddenly stopped. Her eyes looked across the street and then fell on a man and a woman.

"They are the two young men from the Shrek Academy reserve team. If I remember correctly, one is called Huo Yuhao and the other is called Wang Dong."

Ling Luochen spoke softly.

Shu Yan and Xu Jiujiu's attention were also attracted. Across the crowd, they almost noticed at a glance the two young men who were carrying a few lunch boxes and preparing to come over across the street.

Huo Yuhao was not particularly outstanding, but Wang Dong, or rather Wang Dong'er, with his pink and blue hair, was very eye-catching on the street. The huge gap in their cultivation did not allow them to notice the three of them at the first time. It was only when they were about to meet that the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm in Huo Yuhao's sea of ​​consciousness suddenly sensed an inexplicably familiar breath and was awakened again. Then, Huo Yuhao's footsteps suddenly paused, and his body was strangely frozen in place.

Wang Dong didn't understand at first and was about to continue teasing Huo Yuhao, but when he turned around and saw Shu Yan and the other two staring at them, he suddenly reacted, took two steps back, and a hint of fear appeared in his eyes.

At this time, in Huo Yuhao’s spiritual sea, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was so anxious that it almost cried. Huo Yuhao was confused for a moment and had not yet figured out the situation. But the next second, he heard the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm crying:

“Snow Emperor! This is the aura of Snow Emperor, Yuhao, we just bought a midnight snack and it’s not against the law, why are we doomed... Wuuuuu, I haven’t even met Bing Emperor yet, haven’t expressed my deep love to her, how come I met a pervert like Snow Emperor in the human world, wuuuuu…”

Huo Yuhao pieced together a terrifying fact from the intermittent sounds of the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm...

"Snow... Snow Emperor? Tianmeng, did you fall into a trance after sleeping? How could a being like the Snow Emperor come to the capital of the human kingdom..."

Huo Yuhao's hands were shaking as he held the midnight snack. His voice was even more unpleasant than crying. He raised his head and looked at Shu Yan, who was smiling gently. For a moment, Huo Yuhao felt as if the sky had fallen...
