Douluo Dalu: Immortal Dragon Clan

Entrance to the Mingdu Auction House.
Kong Deming led Sheng Yangyue and Ye Xishui into the venue. Today's auction can be said to have been specially prepared by the Sun Moon Empire for the former Three Kingdoms and Shrek Academy. The purpose is to realize the final value of the discarded soul tools by selling them to the former Three Kingdoms or Shrek Academy. That's why this auction was held.

"You two stay close to me, there might be some shady characters at today's auction," Kong Deming warned the two behind him.

"clear."

The three handed the invitations to the guard, who let them through without even looking at them.

He might not know Sheng Yangyue and Ye Xishui, but how could he not know Kong Deming, the vice dean of the academy?
Inside the main hall, the auction had not yet started, and some students who had arrived early were waiting patiently.

The moment Sheng Yangyue and her two companions entered the inner area, several pairs of eyes were cast their way, and some even tried to spy on them.

Kong Deming merely released the aura of a Title Douluo, instantly causing the group to avert their gazes.

"It seems this auction is going to be quite lively," Ye Xishui said slowly, then turned to Kong Deming and said, "Teacher Kong Deming, I want to go auction the soul tool."

"Go back quickly."

"Yangyue, let's go."

"..." Upon hearing this, Kong Deming immediately said, "I'll go with you."

The reason he came along this time was naturally to protect his precious student Yang Yue; otherwise, he would have been immersed in his laboratory continuing his research on soul tools long ago.

Ye Xishui chuckled, not minding at all, and asked Yang Yue to accompany her to find the auction manager.

Kong Deming followed silently behind them, not at all like a vice dean of the academy, but more like a bodyguard protecting the young lady and young master.

The three arrived at the manager's office. The auction manager wasn't really keen on dealing with the people who had come to auction their items, but when he opened the door and saw Kong Deming behind Sheng Yangyue and Ye Xishui, he instantly put on a fawning smile: "Vice Dean Kong, what brings you here today?"

Although today's auction is large in scale, it is absolutely impossible to disturb this youngest genius soul master.

"I'm here with my student to auction off a soul tool," Kong Deming said calmly.

"Oh, I see~" Upon hearing this, the manager's gaze fell on Ye Xishui.

He naturally recognized the girl in front of him. She was a regular customer who often came to auction level 5 or semi-finished level 6 soul tools. He never expected that she was Kong Deming's student.

And the person next to her, could it be Sheng Yangyue, the strongest genius in the academy that has been rumored to be appearing once in a century?
I've heard that this genius boy is comparable to the genius monsters of Shrek Academy, but I don't know if it's true or not.

"Miss Ye, what do you want to auction this time?" The manager didn't dare to be negligent and immediately asked.

Ye Xishui stopped talking and took out several soul tools from her storage ring. These were all her failed attempts.

When the manager and Kong Deming saw so many soul tools, they looked at Ye Xishui in shock—this little girl was actually going to sell so many.

Kong Deming frowned slightly. Was Ye Xishui making soul tools a little too fast?

Moreover, the quality of these soul tools is not low...

"Teacher, I need to go to the restroom." Sheng Yangyue suddenly said to Kong Deming.

"Go quickly and come back quickly. If you encounter any trouble, just shout and I will come immediately." Kong Deming did want to stay by Sheng Yangyue's side to protect him, but he didn't need to follow him to the toilet.

After receiving permission, Sheng Yangyue nodded to Ye Xishui before leaving the manager's office.

He walked a few steps to a corridor and finally saw the group of people he was looking for.

It's Shrek Academy's team...

They were dressed in green and gathered there chatting; if you didn't look closely, you might mistake them for some kind of freak.

"Teacher, is it really necessary for us to come to this kind of auction?" a Shrek Academy member complained to Zhao Xin, his eyes filled with disdain for the soul tool. He felt that it would be better to go back to the hotel and train properly to prepare for the first match of tomorrow's opening ceremony.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Xin laughed and said, "As the saying goes, 'Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle.'"

You are indeed the elite of Shrek Academy, but don't forget, this is the home ground of the Sun Moon Empire, where soul tools are the mainstream!

He didn't explain things too clearly, wanting the trainees to figure it out for themselves.

Mu En, Zhao Xin's junior brother, quickly guessed the meaning behind his senior brother's words and asked, "Senior brother, do you mean they will temporarily create a soul tool to deal with us?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Xin smiled at Mu En but remained silent.

Just then, a Shrek Academy member suddenly shouted in one direction, "What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen a Shrek Academy member before?"

This was said with an arrogant tone, as if the identity of a "Shrek member" was an incomparably sacred symbol.

The person being addressed by this Shrek team member was none other than Sheng Yangyue.

He stood there quietly, watching the Shrek Academy team members. Faced with their reprimands, he was not angry at all. Instead, he smiled and said, "I thought it was some kind of soul beast's excrement."

Why are all the Shrek Academy students wearing green clothes? It's impossible to tell who's who when they're all together, so I took a few more curious glances.

"Hey kid, what did you say?" The Shrek team member who shouted was named Liu Mang, and he had a very fiery temper.

He always regarded everything about Shrek Academy as an honor and would never allow anyone to desecrate the sacred place in his heart.

"Didn't you hear me?" Sheng Yangyue was too lazy to argue with Liu Mang. "If you didn't hear me, then forget it." With that, she prepared to leave.

Sheng Yangyue was still figuring out how to get Shrek Academy to cause her trouble so she could start her next plan, but before she could even sort out her thoughts, someone offered her the opportunity to "start a team".

It must be said, Shrek truly lives up to his reputation.

"Damn it, who said you could leave?"

Liu Mang instantly went berserk, releasing his martial spirit and spirit rings.

Although he was one of the weaker members of the Shrek Academy team, he was still among the top members of other academies.

Faced with this boy who dared to slander the academy, he was determined to teach him a lesson and make him understand that Shrek Academy was not to be trifled with.

When Mu En saw Liu Mang suddenly attack the somewhat familiar-looking boy, he couldn't help but look at his senior brother.

Zhao Xin seemed to have guessed what Mu En wanted to ask, and said, "What happened five months ago was because I wasn't there. Now that I'm here, you can go all out. I'll take responsibility for anything that happens."

"Senior brother, I understand." Mu En nodded, but thought to himself: Senior brother means that with him around now, we can do whatever we want.

If my senior brother had been here five months ago, wouldn't...

The thought of that incident brought a sharp pain to Moon's heart.

In this Soul Master Competition, he is determined to ensure that the Sun Moon Empire doesn't even make it into the top four!

Seeing Liu Mang suddenly attack, Sheng Yangyue easily turned around to dodge the attack, and then kicked him directly.

With a bang, Liu Mang was kicked into the wall of the corridor.
