Douluo: Dominating Douluo begins with summoning Kong Deming

Chapter 218, Xiao Wu Returns
As the grandest event in the world of Soul Masters, the Continental Advanced Soul Master Tournament has never only attracted Soul Masters.

Especially this year, with the changes to the individual season rules and the rewards of three ten-thousand-year soul bones and one hundred-thousand-year soul bones.

From royalty and nobility to ordinary citizens, everyone's attention was focused on this grand event, which was far larger than any of the previous ones.

In fact, in a historical period like Douluo Continent, which is still in the feudal medieval society, even the free residents of the capital city rarely have any entertainment activities.

This is why the matches in the Grand Arena are always so popular.

Of course, the tickets for this Continental Advanced Soul Master Tournament were also sold out immediately.

Some underground banks have long been eager to make a fortune during this competition.

The entire Tian Dou Grand Arena has been expanded by more than double, and the viewing areas, apart from the VIP area, are now large enough to accommodate more than 100,000 spectators.

The Butian Pavilion even funded and provided technology to install broadcasting equipment in some large public areas of Tiandou City.

This undoubtedly added considerable popularity to this year's All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Tournament.

These are some of Ye Ling's marketing tactics from his previous life, although they didn't generate advertising revenue.

But it can also allow the reputation of Butian Pavilion to spread further among the common people.

As the date of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Tournament draws ever closer, participating academies and contestants are gradually gathering in Heaven Dou City.

Although these people were provided with unified accommodation by the royal family, the sudden surge in people still caused almost all the hotels in Tiandou City to be fully booked.

This enthusiasm continued until it reached its peak on the day the competition officially opened.

Early in the morning, when it was still just getting light, a considerable number of spectators had already arrived at the Heaven Dou Grand Arena.

Although everyone had a fixed seat, the main reason these people arrived so early was to get up close and personal with the contestants.

Those under the age of 25 are eligible to represent the academy in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Competition.

This in itself demonstrates that these young Soul Masters possess limitless talent, and calling them young prodigies is by no means an exaggeration.

Many young girls even hoped that something would happen between them and these Soul Masters who were unattainable in their eyes.

The female characters in Douluo Continent, whether they are favored by heaven or ordinary commoners, are all extremely fond of the strong.

However, it wasn't just these commoner girls; even some nobles in the VIP area wanted to use their daughters to recruit these young Soul Masters.

It can only be said that it has a bit of the flavor of "choosing a son-in-law after passing the imperial examination".

"Xiao Wu, where have you been all this time?"

Looking at Xiao Wu in front of him, Liu Erlong couldn't control his emotions and hugged her tightly.

"Godmother, I'm fine. I just went to find a suitable spirit ring for me."

Xiao Wu was somewhat moved, and immediately summoned her four soul rings, two yellow and two purple.

Although she didn't consume any magical herbs, Xiao Wu's level increased faster than in the original story.

"You silly child, you didn't even ask us for help when you were hunting for spirit rings, making us worry so much!"

Liu Erlong's gaze lingered on Xiao Wu's spirit rings for only a moment before continuing to wander over Xiao Wu's body.

They wanted to check if Xiao Wu had any injuries.

In her heart, the level of soul power was not important; what mattered was that Xiao Wu was safe and sound.

However, just because Liu Erlong doesn't care about Xiao Wu's soul power level doesn't mean that others don't care.

"Xiao Wu, you're already level 40?"

Yu Xiaogang looked at the four spirit rings on Xiao Wu's body and couldn't help but smile with delight.

"correct."

Xiao Wu nodded, somewhat puzzled.

Aren't her four spirit rings obvious enough?

Or is there something wrong with the master's eyes?

"Great! With you included, our team now has four Soul Masters with Soul Power exceeding level 40."

Yu Xiaogang ignored Xiao Wu's strange expression and instead happily analyzed the strength of his team.

"If the remaining few break through their bottlenecks during the competition, maybe we can even form a team of all Soul Masters above level 40!" Yu Xiaogang's mind was now filled with thoughts of the upcoming Continental Advanced Soul Master Tournament.

As long as the Shrek Seven Devils, or as long as Tang San can win the competition, Yu Xiaogang can wash away his reputation as a good-for-nothing.

After Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong left, Tang San, who had been pacing anxiously to the side, finally got to talk to Xiao Wu.

"Xiao Wu, why are you back?"

Tang San looked at Xiao Wu in front of him, his tone inevitably carrying a hint of anger.

What if someone discovers your identity?

"I'm not afraid."

Xiao Wu nodded at Tang San and took something off the rope hanging around her neck.

“This was given to me by an adult to cover my breath.”

Tang San's gaze fell on the thing hanging around Xiao Wu's neck.

This is a strange scale, slightly larger than a thumb. It appears to be silver, but upon closer inspection, it reveals a shimmering, multicolored light.

"With this, even a Title Douluo won't be able to detect my aura."

Tang San recognized the thing in front of him; he must have seen it somewhere before.

After pondering for a while, he suddenly slapped his forehead, and his expression became strange.

These are scales from the Silver Dragon King!

In the future, this Silver Dragon King even became his and Xiao Wu's daughter-in-law...

Now Xiao Wu calls it "Master," and the relationship between them is truly complicated and difficult to unravel.

However, it was also thanks to this Silver Dragon King.

At least this way, we can conceal the aura of Little Dance, the Soul Beast.

"Mistress, why do you still look unhappy?"

Seeing that Tang San remained silent, Xiao Wu immediately pouted.

"Don't you want me to fight alongside you?"

Tang San shook his head repeatedly after realizing what had happened.

"That's certainly not what I meant."

Tang San paused for a moment before continuing.

"Xiao Wu, even though you have this to conceal your presence, it doesn't mean you're absolutely safe."

"With dozens of Title Douluos from the Spirit Hall and the Heaven-Mending Pavilion, if anyone manages to see through your identity, the consequences would be unimaginable!"

In truth, Tang San still felt somewhat uneasy.

Many of the titled Douluo in the Heaven-Mending Pavilion seem to be from a different era.

Fortunately, after he became a god, he corrected some of the history.

At least in the future, people will only know that Xiao Wu's martial soul is the Soft Bone Rabbit, but will not know that her true form is a 100,000-year-old soul beast.

This is actually a way of avoiding the taboo of respecting superiors.

After all, Shrek Academy, ten thousand years from now, will always need to maintain the positive and glorious image of Lord Sea God.

If someone were to discover that his wife is a 100,000-year-old soul beast in human form, it would inevitably have a slightly negative impact on the image of Lord Sea God.

Even so, Tang San couldn't guarantee that the people of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion were completely unaware of Xiao Wu's identity.

Especially that mysterious and unpredictable young master of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion, Ye Ling!
“Since I’m already here, the things the Lord has given me are absolutely no problem.”

"Please let me participate in the competition with everyone else."

Upon hearing this, Tang San could only sigh and nod helplessly.

Just as Xiao Wu said, since we're already here, what can we do now?
