Douluo: The Peerless King of Beast Tamers

Chapter 188 August th, welcome the Holy Son home!

After the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy successfully defeated the Di Ao Academy and advanced to the finals after a fierce battle, the team members knew that time was running out, so they did not stop for a moment and rushed back to the hotel.

As soon as they arrived at the hotel, everyone threw themselves into the intense state of preparation.

Some team members chose to practice in seclusion, trying to recover the soul power consumed in the fierce battle as quickly as possible, while healing their injuries.

Some team members plunged into the production and research of soul guides, stepping up the creation of more powerful soul guides and trying to familiarize themselves with their operations, striving to maximize the role of soul guides in the finals.

After all, the official final that will decide the final winner is just three days away.

This game is of great significance to them. Everyone knows that they have no extra time to rest and relax. They must race against time to make the best preparations for the final.

On the other hand, the situation at Shrek Academy is quite different.

Since Xingluo National Academy chose to surrender in the subsequent individual battle, Shrek Academy was able to have plenty of rest time.

As a result, the pressure faced by the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy suddenly doubled.

After all, judging from the direct strength comparison currently demonstrated by both sides, there is still a big gap between the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy and Shrek Academy.

As the two semi-finals of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition came to an end, a long line formed outside the Xingluo Square from the moment the semi-finals ended.

Some of them had even queued there for two days and two nights.

They worked tirelessly, enduring long hours of waiting and fatigue, just to witness with their own eyes the spectacular finals of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Fighting Soul Competition.

In their hearts, perhaps this will become a major event that they will often mention and talk about throughout their lives.

What's more, the schedule of this final is extremely tight. Although it will be divided into three parts: team battle, individual elimination battle and 223 tactics, it will all be completed within one day.

Such a high-density and high-intensity competition will undoubtedly create countless fierce sparks. It will be a wonderful event.

For many soul master enthusiasts, even if the process is a little more difficult, it is worth it to be able to witness such a competition live.

In order to maintain order in the imperial capital during the event, facing the influx of crowds, the Xing Luo Empire urgently dispatched 10,000 elite soldiers into the city to maintain order.

At the same time, all shops in the city have extended their business hours to meet people's needs.

In order to supply the sudden surge in the number of foreign population, various daily necessities, food ingredients and other resources were urgently allocated from the surrounding major cities.

For a time, Xingluo City became more prosperous than ever before, with the streets and alleys bustling with people.

There is no doubt that the economic benefits brought to the Star Luo Empire by this continent-wide Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition are inestimable.

It is no wonder that the major empires vied to host the competition, but ultimately had to compromise with one another, with each country being the host of each competition.

The two teams in the final, Shrek Academy and Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy, undoubtedly represent the most powerful forces on the continent today.

As a pearl in the soul master world, Shrek Academy not only has a profound cultural heritage, but also has cultivated generations of outstanding soul masters. The strength of its three soul emperors is unquestionable.

The Sun-Moon Royal Soul Guide Academy is a new force that has risen rapidly in the past few thousand years. It has emerged as a dark horse in the soul master world by relying on its in-depth research and application of soul guides.

The anticipation for this final can be imagined. Whether it is professionals in the soul master world or ordinary soul master enthusiasts, they are all full of expectations for this game.

Because the Xingluo Royal Family secretly helped the Sun-Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy with hype and publicity, the odds on the underground black market are now actually the same for the Sun-Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy as for Shrek Academy.

This also led to a large number of people betting on the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy, and everyone was looking forward to unexpected results in this game.

During this period of time, all the students of Shrek Academy would join in the fun and place their bets on Shrek.

Although the money earned each time is not much, it is at least a steady profit, and it also adds a different kind of fun to the busy life of preparation for the competition.

At this moment, Zhou Sichen was with Jiang Peng, who had just recovered from some of his injuries. The two found a relatively quiet place to sit in the lobby of the underground casino.

Jiang Peng said indignantly: "Brother Zhou, I have done my best. The rest is up to you, Shrek Academy. The Sun-Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy is ambitious, but the championship of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Fighting Soul Competition will never be theirs!"

Zhou Sichen just smiled slightly and said firmly: "Don't worry, the championship belongs to Shrek."

Seeing Zhou Sichen's calm face, Jiang Peng couldn't help but think of the trick Zhou Sichen showed him that night.

Obviously Zhou Sichen only has the fifth ring of cultivation, but he can control a seventh-level soul guide.

This was shocking enough, but what was even more unbelievable was that Zhou Sichen was from Shrek Academy and possessed a top-level beast martial soul. His martial soul talent was even higher than his attainments in soul guides.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never believe that there was such a monster in the world.

Now, he admires Zhou Sichen from the bottom of his heart and really wants to be brothers with Zhou Sichen.

Seeing Jiang Peng's fanboy look, Zhou Sichen patted his shoulder gently and asked with concern: "Are you okay with your injury?"

Hearing this, Jiang Peng quickly shook his head and said nonchalantly, "It's okay, it's just a minor injury. If you want to make me lose face, those grandsons are not qualified enough!"

Jiang Peng said with an indignant look on his face: "Brother Zhou, in the finals, you must dampen the spirit of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy and try to destroy them all. If these bastards go back alive, they will definitely be the enemy of our original Douluo Continent in the future!"

Hearing this, Zhou Sichen couldn't help but look at Jiang Peng again and joked, "You usually look honest, but I didn't expect you to be so sinister in your heart."

Jiang Peng was not embarrassed, he just laughed and said: "If I was not weak enough, I wouldn't bother you. I can kill them all with one axe."

Zhou Sichen clinked his glasses with his and encouraged him half-jokingly, "You have great talent. In the future, you should work harder on your cultivation and use some soul guides properly. I believe that in the near future, you will become a top-level expert famous throughout the continent. When you have enough strength, take your axe to Sun and Moon and destroy them all!"

Listening to Zhou Sichen's half-joking words, Jiang Peng actually nodded seriously: "Well, I'll listen to Brother Zhou. After I go back, I will practice hard in seclusion. When I have achieved success in my cultivation, I will definitely not let Brother Zhou down!"

Zhou Sichen looked at the silly Jiang Peng and couldn't help but smile.

But at this moment, Zhou Sichen's eyes moved slightly, and his eyes inadvertently glanced at a corner behind him.

There were two middle-aged men in cloaks standing in the corner. In this underground casino where all kinds of people gathered, hiding their identities was a normal thing.

But these two people gave Zhou Sichen a very strange feeling. They seemed to be deliberately hiding their aura, but from time to time they cast obscure glances towards Zhou Sichen, as if they were spying on something.

This is not normal, and Zhou Sichen immediately became alert.

At the same time, in Zhou Sichen's spiritual sea, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm said excitedly: "Sichen, those two guys are very special."

"The one with the big head has a very strong spiritual power. Although he has only the eighth ring of cultivation, his spiritual power is almost comparable to that of a Titled Douluo. The other one also has an abnormal body shape. One of his arms is particularly thick, with bulging muscles and full of strength. If I am not mistaken, they should be the people from the Body Sect."

After hearing Tianmeng Bingcan's analysis, Zhou Sichen instantly understood the identities of these two people.

The big-headed man is called Langya, and his martial spirit is his big head. The thick-armed man is called Yutao, and his martial spirit is his thick right arm.

These two people are from the Benti Sect, and they were born to look for good talents for the Benti Sect.

However, Zhou Sichen was full of doubts, because he had never exposed his true martial soul, so how could these two people notice him?
Could it be because he was currently copying Mu Lao's Holy Dragon Spirit of Light?

The two guys from the Body Sect showed up during the competition just to see if there were any fresh Body Martial Soul talents among the many contestants so that they could bring them back to the sect to replenish fresh blood.

But they did not see the promising young man who truly possessed a true martial spirit, but instead noticed this Holy Dragon of Light?
It was understandable that other young people were not familiar with the Holy Dragon of Light, after all, Elder Mu had been in seclusion for many years and rarely appeared in public. But the Body Sect would definitely remember the Holy Dragon of Light deeply, because their previous leader was seriously injured after a battle with Elder Mu, and finally passed away within a few years.

Now that they see such a young Holy Dragon of Light, it is inevitable that these iron-headed guys will have some evil thoughts.

Of course, this is just Zhou Sichen's guess at the moment, and he is not sure about the specific reason.

And when Zhou Sichen noticed these two people, they were also suddenly startled.

Lang Ya had an incredible look on his face, and muttered to himself: "He actually found me?!"

Yu Tao beside him was also a little unconvinced and questioned: "With your means, how could he, a mere Five-ring Soul King, discover it?"

While the two were talking in low voices, Zhou Sichen suddenly stood up. Jiang Peng beside him was slightly stunned and asked in confusion: "Brother Zhou, what are you doing?"

Zhou Sichen patted his shoulder gently and said calmly, "Sit down for a while. I'll go buy some oranges."

Jiang Peng was a little confused, but he just nodded, not paying too much attention to anything else, and continued to sit in his seat drinking.

On the other side, the two people who saw Zhou Sichen's actions were somewhat surprised and confused.

Lang Ya said nervously, "He moved and came over... I really found him! How could this kid be so evil?"

Yu Tao turned his head away silently and asked through voice transmission: "What should we do? Retreat?"

Lang Ya shook his head and said with a determined look: "Why retreat? We in the Benti Sect have always been straightforward. If he really finds out, we can test it out to see if the martial spirit induction is true."

Yu Tao thought it made sense, nodded, and said firmly: "I'll listen to you!"

While the two were talking, Zhou Sichen on the other side had made up his mind. With a faint smile on his face, he walked slowly towards the two middle-aged men with strange body shapes.

His pace seemed leisurely, but each step was steady and powerful, and each step seemed to be measuring the distance between him and danger.

When he was less than two meters away from the two of them, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a mysterious smile, and slowly uttered a few words: "August 8, good luck, welcome the Holy Son home."

Zhou Sichen's voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard by the two.

"?"

Hearing Zhou Sichen's inexplicable words, Yu Tao and Lang Ya, two middle-aged men with strange body shapes, were both stunned.

Their eyes widened, confusion and shock written all over their faces, and they all thought in their hearts: What is going on?
You are sick, aren't you?
In their eyes, the behavior style of the Body Sect was already unique and bizarre enough, but now seeing Zhou Sichen's illogical and inexplicable actions and words, they were shocked to realize that there were people in this world who were even more unpredictable than them.

Yu Tao is an impatient person and a man of action.

As soon as doubts arose in his mind, he could no longer hold back. Since he couldn't understand what the other person was saying, he grabbed him and asked for clarification.

As soon as Zhou Sichen finished speaking, Yu Tao stretched out his thick and strong right arm like an enraged beast.

This arm seemed to have life and could stretch naturally. It simply stretched forward and easily crossed a distance of two meters. With a whistling sound, it grabbed Zhou Sichen fiercely, as if it wanted to grasp Zhou Sichen directly.

Just when the big hand was about to grab Zhou Sichen, Zhou Sichen's right eye quietly changed. The originally bright eyes instantly turned dark black, and the pupils seemed to be jumping dark red flames, flickering gently, exuding a mysterious and dangerous aura.

Eye of the Soul, activate!
A special soul power fluctuation that was almost invisible to the naked eye and reached directly into the soul spread out in an instant, like a calm lake surface with ripples caused by a huge rock thrown into it.

Yu Tao's sturdy arms paused for just a moment, and this brief pause was like time was paused.

But for Zhou Sichen, this is enough.

When Yu Tao came to his senses, Zhou Sichen was no longer in front of him. Zhou Sichen had already passed him cleverly like a ghost.

Lang Ya, who was beside Yu Tao, had been observing all this quietly.

He watched Zhou Sichen pass under Yu Tao's big hand and pass by him casually. Lang Ya was filled with doubt and uncertainty.

Zhou Sichen didn't target him just now, so he saw the whole scene.

Although he had no verbal communication with Zhou Sichen, he was certain that the other party's series of actions were a provocation, or perhaps Zhou Sichen was so confident in his abilities that he didn't take them seriously at all.

Even with Lang Ya's powerful mental strength, he was unable to see through Zhou Sichen's tricks just now.

He only felt a sudden trembling wave in his soul, a fear that penetrated deep into his soul, but in just a moment, this wave disappeared without a trace, as if it had never appeared.

But even so, he still did not make any move.

This was the first time for him to be timid in the face of a Soul King who was only at the five-ring level. This feeling made him feel both unfamiliar and unwilling.

In fact, he was not afraid of the old guys who were secretly following and protecting Shrek Academy. After all, their Benti Sect was the most protective, and their sect leader was very powerful and would never allow the old guys from Shrek to bully their own people.

But at this moment, he was really surprised by this seemingly young and immature junior. The strange abilities displayed by Zhou Sichen made him feel fearful.

When he came to his senses, Zhou Sichen was already not far away, his figure gradually disappearing into the distance.

Yu Tao, who was beside Lang Ya, finally came to his senses and asked in confusion, "Hey? Where's the person? I clearly caught him?!"

There was a hint of disbelief in his voice, as if he was still immersed in the incredible scene that had just happened.

Lang Ya couldn't help but sigh, and said with a complicated expression: "He should not be from our Body Sect. He has the Light Holy Dragon Martial Spirit. This kid may have special means of Shrek's top leaders. Our Body Sect has just been born, so it's better not to provoke Shrek for now."

There was a hint of helplessness and caution in his tone, knowing full well that Shrek Academy had a profound background and was not something they could easily provoke now.

Yu Tao was immediately unhappy when he heard this, and said loudly: "So what? This little thing has such strange methods, maybe..."

Before he could finish his words, Lang Ya waved his hand and interrupted him: "Okay then, if you want to go, go by yourself. Just don't drag me into this when the sect leader blames you if something goes wrong."

There was a hint of threat in Langya's tone, which made Yu Tao feel a chill in his heart.

Yu Tao hesitated for a moment after hearing this, and after weighing the pros and cons, he finally gave up the idea of ​​pursuing the matter further.

He scratched his head, an awkward smile appeared on his face, and then he continued to browse the underground casino, muttering: "I'd better place a few bets on Shrek first. This little thing has such a weird ability, it can definitely help us make more money!"

Lang Ya no longer paid any attention to Yu Tao. He just quietly watched Zhou Sichen's gradually receding back and fell into deep thought.

He is now almost certain that Zhou Sichen may have guessed the identities of himself and Yu Tao.

But what exactly did Zhou Sichen mean by that sentence?

"Welcome the Holy Son home?"

But hasn’t that kid Long Aotian been in the sect all this time?

Zhou Sichen's words were like a fog, shrouding his heart and making him unable to let go for a long time.
