Douluo's main body is respected

Chapter 98 After the War
Compared to ordinary audiences, whether it was the teachers at the Soul Master Academy or the geniuses watching the battle, they clearly felt a lot of different things through this battle.

Compared to the shock of Tang San showing off the Clear Sky Hammer, they seemed to be more concerned about this defensive spirit master named Yang Xiong, especially those inside the Five Elements Academy.

The captains of several teams, including Feng Xiaotian, Huo Wushuang, and Shui Binger, gathered together, looking extremely serious.

Feng Xiaotian spoke first: "Huo Wushuang, how much do you think the Shrek team really showed in their last victory over them?"

Huo Wushuang was also very serious at this moment: "Feng Xiaotian, I don't know about this. Yang Xiong back then was obviously not as strong as he is today. Yu Tianxin and I are about the same strength, but he was able to completely suppress Yu Tianxin and even completely block multiple people. This is not something an ordinary defensive spirit master can do. You know, until now, even if he lost the game, no one has ever witnessed any of his spirit skills."

Feng Xiaotian nodded: "I feel a bit like I have met a kindred spirit. Yang Xiong's self-created spirit skills are very good. Perhaps he and I can exchange ideas on the process of developing self-created spirit skills."

Huo Wu, standing by, showed a hint of disdain on her face. "Feng Xiaotian, your Thirty-Six Consecutive Slashes to Break the Gale Wolf were too complicated. I think Yang Xiong's self-created spirit skills are simple and direct, especially the one he used to defeat Yu Tianxin in the end. Just based on the power alone, it's probably already at the top of the millennium spirit skills."

"At first I was surprised that he could withstand my Fire Dance. I'm afraid he used the same move that was used to resist Yu Tianxin's soul skill."

Feng Xiaotian quickly said, "Sister Huo Wu, you can rest assured. I will definitely defeat Yang Xiong myself and avenge you."

Everyone looked at Feng Xiaotian with unusual eyes. Huo Wu had only said a few words casually, so why did this person seem so sensitive?

Shui Bing'er, standing by, smiled and said, "Don't say too much. The spirit power level of the Shrek team is too low. Especially Blue Silver Grass, who is a control-type spirit master and is easily restrained. Perhaps this is why they lost to Blazing Fire."

Huo Wu snorted coldly: "It's just blue silver grass. It will turn into ashes under my flames."

All of them are geniuses and direct competitors, so they can easily find the shortcomings of the Shrek team.

After the treatment, everyone attended a grand dinner, which was hosted by Crown Prince Xue Qinghe himself. The three major education committee members were all present, as well as Ning Fengzhi and Bone Douluo. Even Flender felt a little flattered by the importance they attached to the party.

Xue Qinghe even raised his glass frequently at the dinner, clearly showing a strong desire to win over Tang San and Dai Mubai, the captain and vice-captain, especially Tang San. It was obvious that both Ning Fengzhi and Xue Qinghe attached great importance to Tang San.

After all, twin spirits are known for their unparalleled gifts, especially Tang San’s second spirit, the Clear Sky Hammer, which is highly regarded.

In contrast, Xue Qinghe was unusually indifferent towards Yang Xiong, and seemed to hold a slight grudge against him.

Since the last meeting with Xue Qinghe, Yang Xiong and Ning Rongrong, under the leadership of Ning Fengzhi, have spent many times with Xue Qinghe, especially Ning Rongrong, who has a very close relationship with Xue Qinghe.

However, every time they met, Yang Xiong especially liked to tease Xue Qinghe for not being married at such an old age. Especially Ning Fengzhi, as Xue Qinghe's teacher, even planned to help him arrange it himself, which made Xue Qinghe very embarrassed.

Normally, for someone of Xue Qinghe's age and with the lofty status of the Crown Prince of the Tiandou Empire, being the royal heir is a crucial matter. However, Xue Qinghe doesn't take it seriously at all, and there isn't even a single scandal about him. This is extremely abnormal.

Even though Xue Qinghe had some minor objections to Yang Xiong's words, unfortunately Yang Xiong had to bring it up every time they met. After all, on the surface, the two families were too familiar with each other, and it could even be said that their relationship was too close. As Ning Fengzhi's direct disciple, Xue Qinghe was almost half a son. They couldn't become enemies over such a small matter.

At the dinner, Xue Qinghe raised his glass to everyone frequently, especially when he met Yang Xiong again, his smile almost froze.

Yang Xiong spoke first: "Brother Qinghe, we two hit it off right away. We are all family, so we shouldn't be so distant."

Ning Rongrong, who was standing by, spat at Yang Xiong: "Little Bear, what are you thinking? How could the Crown Prince be so reserved? Do you think everyone is as stingy as you?"

Yang Xiong was pretending to be dumb: "Brother Qinghe, if you don't mind, that would be great. By the way, Brother Qinghe, how about the advice I gave you last time?"

Xue Qinghe suddenly looked extremely embarrassed, but a smile still appeared on his face. "I've been thinking about it recently, so don't worry about it, Brother Yang. You're still young, so you should focus on your cultivation instead of dwelling on these trivial matters between men and women."

……

The two men had pricked each other a few times, but in the eyes of outsiders, they looked like brothers, especially Ning Fengzhi, who looked quite pleased.

Yang Xiong complained in his heart: You are such a fake Xue Qinghe, I want to see how long you can pretend.

However, when Yang Xiong returned to the dormitory, someone came to knock on the door, and the people who came were Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing.

Yang Xiong invited the two into the living room and casually poured them a cup of tea. As the saying goes, one does not visit a temple for no reason. Although Dai Mubai and I are teammates, they are not close friends, so he doesn't know what they are here for.

"Dai Mubai, why don't you go to practice at this time and come to see me?"

Dai Mubai looked unusually serious: "Yang Xiong, I want to discuss the Soul Master Competition with you." Yang Xiong was a little confused: "What's there to discuss? We should be able to participate normally, but we still have some hope of participating in the promotion competition."

Dai Mubai said, "Yang Xiong, I know you didn't try your best from the beginning to the end. I hope you can help me and Zhu Qing."

Yang Xiong laughed and said, "Why would you even want to talk about this? If you really have any trouble, just bring it up and we can all help solve it together."

Dai Mubai was silent for a while before speaking: "You should have known about Zhu Qing and my backgrounds a long time ago. This Soul Master Competition is related to Zhu Qing and my future, so I must win, and even make a big splash in the finals."

Yang Xiong took a sip of tea and said, "I've heard about the things going on in the Xingluo Empire, but I think whether in the competition or in other situations, I have done my part, and I have done my best to contribute to the team."

Dai Mubai said, "Yang Xiong, I don't know if you've heard that the prize for the champion is three soul bones. I don't want anything else. I just want us to do our best to defeat Xingluo Royal Academy."

Yang Xiong smiled and said, "Although soul bones are valuable, you still need to be alive to get them. As for the team, I will do my best, but for us, both competing for the championship and the Xingluo Royal Academy team are too far away."

Seeing Yang Xiong's obviously perfunctory words, Dai Mubai felt helpless: "Yang Xiong, we have been teammates for several years. I know your strength better than anyone else. Even if Xiao San and I join forces now, I am not sure I can defeat you, especially since you have never used spirit ring skills."

Yang Xiong spoke directly: "I should have told you why I don't use spirit ring skills. Have you ever thought about why you, as a prince of the Xingluo Empire, can appear in the Tiandou Royal Academy? I'm afraid it's not that simple."

After some communication between the two, Dai Mubai took Zhu Zhuqing away. Yang Xiong couldn't help shaking his head as he looked at their backs.

Yang Xiong knew very well that as the prince of the Xingluo Empire, Dai Mubai probably still wanted to return to the Xingluo Empire to compete for the throne, and the basis for all this must be that he could defeat Davis. But now Davis is already level 49, which is far beyond Dai Mubai's ability to deal with.

Especially without the Qirong Tongtianju, Dai Mubai's combat power is far less powerful than in the original book, and Zhu Zhuqing does not have the Narcissus jade muscles and bones, and the soul power level gap is huge, which is even greater than the combination of Davis and Zhu Zhuyun.

However, just after Dai Mubai left, another group of people came. This time they were Ning Fengzhi, Yu Xiaogang, Tang San, and of course Bone Douluo.

After the dinner, Tang San met with Xue Qinghe and Ning Fengzhi alone. Apparently, the two sides were discussing the origin of the Clear Sky Hammer and Tang Hao's situation, but Yang Xiong didn't care about these things.

Yang Xiong saw Ning Fengzhi and quickly said, "Master, how come you have time to come to see me? Rongrong is in the building next door."

Ning Fengzhi's face darkened: "Xiaoxiong, don't be so nervous, we just have something to discuss."

Yang Xiong was full of confusion. Logically speaking, if it was a matter of the sect, he could just come to me directly. Why did he have to bring Yu Xiaogang and Tang San along?
Ning Fengzhi paused before speaking: "Xiaoxiong, do you know the significance of this Soul Master Competition, especially the significance of winning the championship?"

Yang Xiong thought for a moment before speaking: "I heard that the prize for this championship is three soul bones. I'm afraid these three soul bones are not simple rewards, right?"

Ning Fengzhi nodded. "The Spirit Hall has given away three spirit bones this time because they have absolute confidence in their team. According to my information, this Spirit Hall team is known as the Golden Generation, with three Spirit Kings, and all other members are above level 45."

Yang Xiong was silent for a while. "Sect Master, I've heard about this as well. With our team's current strength, we're still far behind the Spirit Hall team. We have absolutely no hope of winning."

Ning Fengzhi sighed, "I also know the huge gap between the two sides, and I'm even more clear about the Spirit Hall's goal this time. They want to achieve a crushing victory to maximise their reputation. By then, their position in the spirit master world will be even more solid, and the status of our Upper Three Sects will be in jeopardy."

Yang Xiong showed a hint of doubt on his face: "Master, aren't you exaggerating a bit? Although the Spirit Hall is powerful, our Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect has a close relationship with the Tiandou Imperial Family and is not afraid of them."

Ning Fengzhi shook his head. "The current Pope of the Spirit Hall is extremely powerful and ambitious. Over the years, they have used iron-fisted methods to rapidly develop the Spirit Hall. They have recruited all the outstanding young spirit masters in the world. Their strength may be even stronger than I imagined."

"Especially the current Pope, Bibi Dong. Not only is she ruthless, she's also very strict with her own people. I'm afraid she'll turn on us sooner or later. By then, our Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect will be unable to hold on alone."

Yang Xiong was also helpless: "Master, I don't think I can do anything about this. I am only a Soul Master now. If I have another five years, I will be able to fight them."

"Besides, what does this have to do with Tang San and Master?"

Ning Fengzhi smiled and said, "Of course they are related. Master Yu Xiaogang was born into the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family, and Tang San was born into the Clear Sky Sect. Your coming together this time can be considered a collaboration among the three sects. It means that the three of us are jointly fighting against the Spirit Hall. Yu Yuanzhen has already written to me, and we even have some contact with the Clear Sky Sect."

Yang Xiong was speechless after hearing this. Ning Fengzhi seemed quite pleased to be the first to step forward. Wasn't he afraid of being targeted by the Spirit Hall in the future? The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex had long since retreated, and the Clear Sky Sect had even retreated. Only the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect was relatively active.

"Master, even if the three of us work together, I'm afraid we won't be able to defeat the three Soul Kings on the other side. At least I can't think of any way."
