Douluo: Subversion Begins with the Arrival of the Traveler

Chapter 118 Only Empty
"I'll report it."

Upon hearing this, Kong pretended to be anxious and stepped forward to speak.

"Hmm? What is this thing of yours?"

The butler frowned and looked at Paimon at Sora's shoulder, feeling very confused.

"This is my martial spirit."

Sora pursed his lips and replied.

"Martial soul?"

Not only the butler, but also the people gathered nearby felt incredible.

They had never seen such a martial spirit before, and it was in human form...

"Yes." Sora nodded.

"Martial Soul... King..."

Paimon didn't blink his eyes, as if he had lost his mind, and spoke mechanically and dully.

"Great! You're hired!"

When the butler saw that Kong's martial spirit could actually speak, he excitedly made the decision.

Those small green bean-like eyes seemed to be emitting light.

But then he seemed to realize that he had lost his composure. He coughed lightly and continued:
"But the necessary procedures still need to be followed. What's your name? Activate your martial spirit so I can see."

"Just empty."

"Zhikong, right..."

Although he felt a little strange about the name, the butler still picked up the pen and wrote something on the paper, then looked at Sora.

"..."

"..."

Their eyes met, and Kong's gaze was filled with innocence.

"Didn't I ask you to activate your martial spirit?"

Seeing that Kong remained indifferent, the butler's gloomy face seemed to be twisted.

"..."

"Hasn't his martial spirit already emerged..."

Someone in the crowd nearby complained, and everyone's eyes turned to Paimon, and then shifted to the butler.

"...Ahem, where's your spirit ring?"

The butler's face fell and he asked fiercely.

"Oh, the spirit ring is here."

Kong's face flushed red, as if he had gathered all his strength. Two soul rings with amber halos rose from under his feet, followed by two more soul rings flashing with thunder.

Judging from his appearance, he is already a Soul Sect master with four soul rings.

"No way, why is his spirit ring so... advanced?"

"Hiss~ I can't explain it, but it feels weird. Let me take another look..."

"Yellow, yellow, purple, purple! Could this be a genius from some powerful force?"

"What a strange spirit ring! I also have yellow and purple spirit rings, but compared to his, they feel like fakes..."

The 46th level Soul Sect master looked at the four soul rings surrounding him that had no special effects. For a moment, he felt a little inferior and had to quietly put the soul rings away.

I had been showing off my spirit rings to show off, but instead of showing off, I met a king of show-offs!

That unique martial spirit...that spirit ring with super special effects...

He really wanted to ask, are we really cultivating the same soul power???

The butler standing by suddenly paused with surprise on his face, and a hint of worry appeared in his cold green eyes.

This spirit ring configuration, this spirit power level, and this young man's appearance...

He is definitely a genius seed from some powerful force!
What bad luck!
The housekeeper looked at Kong with a complicated expression. He couldn't understand why someone like him, whether in the academy or the sect,

Will you be short of these soul coins?
Why would you come in person to take on this bounty mission?

No, I have to discuss this with the adults first. If something goes wrong, I and others might die without knowing how. Thinking of this, the butler nodded slightly and said:

"Alright, I acknowledge your strength, but it seems like you've recruited too many people. I need to report to the Patriarch first."

The butler glanced at everyone and then walked into the house.

"..."

Kong took back the 'Soul Ring' and looked at the door of the house thoughtfully.

This bounty mission seems to be hiding some secrets...

This guy who calls himself the butler just now clearly accepts everyone who comes. He recruits almost all soul masters who are above level 30.

Why is it that when I come here, I feel like he doesn't want to play with me?

Is it that my acting skills are not good enough?

No, it should be because of the spirit ring and spirit power level.

The reason why I disguised myself as a Soul Master of over 40 levels just now was mainly for that commission.

The highest soul power level here is only level 46, so if I disguise myself as level 46 or above, I will be considered the strongest among everyone.

When the time comes to ask the young man, he will feel more or less at ease after seeing his own strength and may tell me the commission.

But it’s a bit difficult right now…

Kong glanced at the maverick boy in the crowd. If he was not included in the bounty mission, he would have to follow quietly.

The young man looked like he had a lot on his mind, so his commission must have been no easy task.

If I ask him directly, he might not only not say anything, but become even more alert and defensive...

Compared to the noisy sounds of the crowd in front of the house, a room inside the house was eerily quiet.

The butler was seen bending his body, as if waiting for the woman sitting behind the desk to come up with a decision.

"Are you saying that there are two special people involved this time?"

The woman asked.

"Yes, there is a very strong martial spirit. I feel it is at least a high-level martial spirit."

The butler paused and continued:
"The other one...is not very old, but he is already a Soul Sect. He must be from a powerful force.

If this person disappears inexplicably, I'm afraid the forces behind him will come looking for him."

"It doesn't matter. After this, we have to move to another place. Someone with ulterior motives in this place must have discovered something suspicious.

He is currently at a critical juncture, and resources like this will surely make him even stronger, so he shouldn't miss out."

The figure stood up and gave another order:

"Let's go, there's no time to lose, the sooner the better."

"Yes."

…………

"Sister Zhuqing, you are so amazing!"

In Tianshui College, Yu Keke couldn't help but applaud after watching Zhu Zhuqing demonstrate the soul fighting techniques to her.

"Coco, try it."

Zhu Zhuqing smiled slightly and spoke.

"Uh-huh!"

Yu Keke followed the movements that Zhu Zhuqing told her and began to imitate them.

After several attempts, Zhu Zhuqing on the side couldn't help but admire that Yu Keke was indeed a promising young talent with even higher talent than herself.

Since both of their martial spirits almost belong to the agility attack type, some fighting techniques are very compatible, so Zhu Zhuqing did not hesitate to share all her experience with Yu Keke.

One reason was that Zhu Zhuqing still felt a lot of guilt because of what happened before. No matter what, she was on Shrek Academy at that time.

The second reason is because of His Majesty.

The girl in front of him was as pretty as himself, but she kept calling him brother, and he doted on her very much.

For some reason, he seemed to feel more relaxed when he was with someone close to him, and he could also listen to her stories about His Majesty from time to time.
