I've already been given the title of Douluo, and you want me to be reasonable?

"Feng Zhi has made his move!"

Amplified by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, Sword Douluo's speed reached its peak, and he instantly crashed into Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan and Ghost Douluo Gui Mei.

A loud cracking sound rang out.

The two titled Douluo were sent flying backwards without any reaction, and then crashed into the ground, kicking up a cloud of yellow sand.

"Damn it, the fusion was interrupted, this guy is unbelievably fast!"

Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan opened his eyes, gritting his teeth as he said, "Ning Fengzhi!"

Ning Fengzhi, the sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, appeared out of nowhere. Looking at the disheveled Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan and Ghost Douluo Gui Mei, he nodded and said, "Chrysanthemum Guan, we meet again."

Juhua Pass angrily retorted, "Does your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School also want to get involved in this mess? Aren't you afraid we'll wipe out your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School?"

Ning Fengzhi said calmly, "The three upper sects are closely connected. You must know that, right?"

Hearing this, Chrysanthemum Pass was also furious. He realized that it was impossible to kill Tang San today, and then said angrily, "Since that's the case, then we will remember what happened today and repay it a hundredfold in the future."

"Old Ghost, let's go."

Knowing he was no match, Juhua Guan unhesitatingly released his martial soul, the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum. As the martial soul bloomed in the sky, countless powerful figures from the Spirit Hall stopped what they were doing and turned to leave.

Seeing that the adults had all fled, the men in black around them also retreated like the tide. As they left, they did not forget to take their companions' corpses with them, leaving not even a single weapon behind.

Clearly, they didn't want anyone to know that it was the Spirit Hall that was behind this.

Meanwhile, at the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy, Lin Yuan had already returned and witnessed the previous battle. He then summoned Zhu Zhuqing to his side.

Zhu Zhuqing knelt before Lin Yuan, raised her hands, and said with tears in her eyes, "This disciple has failed, please... punish me, teacher."

Seeing Zhu Zhuqing's appearance, Lin Yuan gently wiped away the tears on her cheeks and injected his soul power into her body to help Zhu Zhuqing recover from her injuries.

When did I say I was going to punish you?

Zhu Zhuqing raised her head and looked at Lin Yuan's face.

Lin Yuan put one hand behind his back and said softly, "You did very well before. As my disciple, you should never give up even when you are in danger. If you give up, you will never be able to stand up again."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing threw herself into Lin Yuan's arms like a little girl, tears welling up in her eyes.

Canglong Shangque said with a smile, "Master, you've actually been back for a while now, haven't you?"

Lin Yuan did not hide anything. He already knew that the experts from the Spirit Hall would take this opportunity to launch a sneak attack, so he waited and observed the situation, waiting for the best opportunity to appear.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Zhuqing broke through her cultivation level at the last minute and became a level 54 Soul King, which was also beyond Lin Yuan's expectations.

But this is good too, at least I can see myself grow. This feeling of being reborn from a desperate situation is probably something only Zhu Zhuqing can truly experience.

Lin Yuan glanced in the direction of Shrek Academy, seemingly unfazed by this outcome, and said calmly, "Go clear the boulders here and prepare to head to Wuhun City to participate in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament."

"Yes, sir."

Soon, the Heaven Dou Empire's Knights cleared away all the boulders blocking their path. After providing basic first aid to the wounded, the Heaven Dou Empire's team of Soul Masters continued their journey.

No further incidents occurred during the rest of the journey. To better protect these Soul Masters, Crown Prince Xue Qinghe temporarily dispatched three thousand Ironclad Army soldiers from the cities they passed through to assist in their protection.

At the same time, some Soul Master experts were summoned from the capital and rushed over.

Compared to massive cities like Heaven Dou City and Soto City, Spirit City is much smaller. It's not even a tenth the size of Heaven Dou City. Yet, it still manages to leave a lasting impression on Spirit Masters.

The city of Wuhun was bustling with activity, and the shops on both sides of the street mostly sold items needed by soul masters.

They even sell soul tools that allow for spatial storage, though the quality is somewhat inferior.

However, if you want to buy a top-grade soul tool, you'll probably need to go to the heart of Wuhun City to have a chance of finding one.

The Spirit Hall had also arranged for a Platinum Bishop to wait here for a long time. When the carriage entered, the black-robed spirit masters on both sides of the street had their eyes filled with a fierce killing intent.

Clearly, this group of people were all powerful Soul Masters who went to launch a sneak attack on the Heaven Dou Empire. Unfortunately, they failed this time, which resulted in them not only not receiving any rewards, but also being punished by their superiors.

It's a thankless and exhausting job.

……

At this moment, in the Pope's Hall, the highest-ranking palace in the Spirit Hall, Pope Bibi Dong, dressed in a magnificent robe, sat quietly in her chair, listening to her subordinates' reports.

"So this sneak attack not only failed, but also resulted in the loss of nearly a thousand Soul Masters from my Spirit Hall?"

Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan and Ghost Douluo Gui Mei knelt on the ground, drenched in sweat, and said, "We were about to succeed, but we didn't expect that Sword Douluo of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and Ning Fengzhi would help Shrek Academy. Otherwise, the disciples of Shrek Academy would have been killed without a burial place."

"Failure is failure. There's no need to make excuses. Even if the excuses are the truth, what does it matter? The mission objective has still arrived in Wuhun City."

Upon hearing this, a hint of fear flashed in the eyes of the two titled Douluo. Their fear of Bibi Dong was nothing new.

Bibi Dong has always been ruthless, and she treats her own people the same way. Although the two titled Douluo are extremely loyal to Bibi Dong, they are still afraid that Bibi Dong will order them to be killed.

"Your Holiness the Pope, not only did the Shrek Academy disciples fail this time, but the disciples of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy... actually broke through to the Soul King realm."

Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong, who had kept her eyes closed, slowly opened them. Her peripheral vision swept over the Title Douluo in the arena, and her icy eyes radiated endless killing intent.

It seems I've never heard of this before.

"Why was I never aware that the disciples of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy had broken through to the Soul King realm? How many of them did?"

"This……"

Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan glanced at the ghost and replied, "As far as I know, six of the seven people from the Heaven Dou Royal Academy have already reached the Soul King realm. As for the one who hasn't appeared yet, and... he is Lin Yuan's first disciple, so his strength must be unfathomable."

Bibi Dong's eyes flashed with a fierce light as she said, "Soul King... Lin Yuan, it seems he's the one behind all this." (End of Chapter)
