Douluo Fishing System

"That's right! If you can't handle losing, why are you even participating in the competition? Get out of here and stop disgracing Tiandou!"

"His Majesty is right. They came to the competition because they were afraid of getting hurt. You think you can just admit defeat and expect them to take back the soul skills they've already used? How can you expect them to take back their soul skills for you? Are you kidding me?"

"Get out! Get out! Get out!"

The audience in the stands already disliked Shrek and his toads, and now that dislike intensified because they were utterly disgusting.

Yu Xiaogang and Flander were both furious, their faces turning red. If it weren't for the presence of powerful figures, they probably would have already started a killing spree.

Hidden in the shadows, Tang Hao clenched his fists. If he weren't worried about being exposed, he would have already rushed up and fought to the death. Anyone who dares to hurt his son deserves to die!

"Brother Hao! Do not act rashly. The powerful figures of the War God Temple are still here. If you are exposed, all our previous plans will be in vain."

Tang Xiao pressed down on Tang Hao's shoulder to calm him down. Their most important task now was to hide and accumulate strength so that they could deliver a fatal blow to the Temple of War. Otherwise, premature exposure would only ruin their plans.

"Although we can't reveal our strength too early, we can make a move on this girl."

"Great Master, what do you mean by this?"

The two Tang brothers asked, puzzled.

"Hehehe, this little girl's talent is so high, it's a pity she doesn't join my Church of Light! Although I can't wage war against the Temple of War right now, it doesn't mean we can't take action against the people of the Temple of War, so...hehehe."

Tang Hao instantly understood that he wanted to recruit this girl into the Church of Light and brainwash her.

Youming's idea is similar to that of the Holy Spirit Cult. Anyway, once she's brainwashed, won't she become a member of the Church of Light? The geniuses you cultivated in the Temple of War end up becoming members of my Church of Light. I'll make you furious.

"Hmph, let's settle our old scores by taking some interest from this little girl first."

Immediately, Youming strode away. He was going to find someone to keep an eye on Ma Xiaotao and capture her as soon as she appeared alone.

The Tang brothers also revealed a wicked smile. As long as they could trick the Temple of War, they would be happy.

After the audience members shouted Shrek away, they all chanted Ma Xiaotao's nickname.

"Flame Demon! Flame Demon! Flame Demon!"

The audience adored Ma Xiaotao, just like a celebrity idol. It wasn't just her beautiful face and perfect figure, but also her talent that captivated everyone present! Ma Xiaotao truly deserved the title of "Flame Demon."

"The Hall of War Gods is full of talented people, which makes me very gratified."

Xueye stroked his white beard and said with a smile.

"It's alright. This girl has decent talent, but her mentality needs improvement. However, I felt that letting her play in this match was somewhat unfair, so I've decided that she won't play in the future to ensure the fairness of the competition."

Wang Yi's voice wasn't particularly loud, but it wasn't quiet either. The audience members were somewhat disappointed for a moment, after all, Ma Xiaotao's performance was truly outstanding.

Compared to the audience, the academy teams breathed a sigh of relief. After all, Contra was simply too overpowered; they definitely wouldn't be able to win if they actually went on stage, so it was better to just concede. However, even though Ma Xiaotao wasn't going to play, there was no guarantee that the other members of the Heavenly God Academy wouldn't become Soul Emperors or Soul Saints. After all, if they could even cultivate Soul Douluos, how could the War God Temple not be able to cultivate Soul Emperors and Soul Saints?

Especially the four elemental academies, they know the Celestial Academy best. The Celestial Academy's real captain hasn't even stepped onto the field yet. If he does, with his terrifying strength, I'm afraid...
Fortunately, they haven't seen the captain yet, which means he might not participate in the match. If that's the case, they can relax a little.

As long as there's no Soul Saint, then a Soul Emperor-level expert isn't someone you can't mess with.

"It seems that the Palace Master has great confidence in his own team. I wonder which young lady is eligible for marriage? If not, would the Palace Master be willing to host a marriage between her and the Crown Prince of our Empire?"

Wang Yi frowned, inwardly displeased. He thought to himself, "You dare let my woman marry someone else? If I weren't scared to death, I would have already taken action."

Ning Fengzhi and Dugu Bo, who were standing to the side, had a bad feeling. They knew Wang Yi better than anyone. Making such a condition on a snowy night was undoubtedly like repeatedly teetering on the edge of life and death.

"Your Majesty is truly magnanimous! You actually want me to give my woman to the Crown Prince as his wife. You are truly a good emperor!"

Sure enough, their worst fears came true.

Xueye's lips twitched, and he thought to himself that he was in trouble. He had only wanted to bring the two forces closer together, so he casually suggested the marriage alliance, but he never thought about it.

Seeing this, Xue Qinghe quickly stepped in to help Xue Ye out of the predicament, while also confirming that the old man was just looking for trouble.

"Your Highness, this is all a misunderstanding. My father only wanted the two families to cooperate more closely, which is why he said that. Please don't be angry, Your Highness. After all, my father didn't know that this young lady was one of yours."

"Hmph, that's your problem. If you say the wrong thing again, I think our cooperation can be terminated."

Wang Yi stood up, flicked his cloak, and then tore open a spatial rift and left.

After he left, Xue Ye and Xue Qinghe both breathed a sigh of relief. The pressure they felt just now was terrifying. If Wang Yi hadn't left quickly, Emperor Xue Ye would probably have been scared to death.

Wang Yi didn't know about the next match, and he was too lazy to watch it anyway. Besides, today was only the first match, and it would get more and more interesting as the matches progressed.

"I think we can speed things up a bit. The fact that old man Xueye is still alive is an obstacle for us."

That night, Wang Yi found Qian Renxue again. After a fight, they finally got down to business.

"Hmph, I think it's because Xueye went too far during the day and displeased you that you made me take action ahead of time, right?"

Qian Renxue pouted and said, "But we really can't make a move against Xueye right now, because she still has a lot of things to take care of. Otherwise, she would have poisoned Xueye and taken her place long ago."

"Since that's the case, let him reign as emperor for a few more years. When the time is right, that will be the day he perishes!"

Anyone who dares to plot against his people is practically courting death. However, he understands right from wrong. Since there's no rush, he figured it was better to slowly poison and torture him than to kill him with a single blow.

"That Tang San is Tang Hao's son. I now have reason to suspect that Tang Xiao, who escaped that day, has already found Tang Hao. Therefore, we must eliminate Tang Xiao when we go to Wuhun City this time."
