Douluo: This Legend of the Dragon King is not quite right

Chapter 322 Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, the Continent's Number One Support
She was a woman with a slender figure and an elegant and noble demeanor.

She wore an elegant palace dress, her face was stunningly beautiful, and her brows exuded an innate nobility and otherworldly charm.

She gracefully held a nine-story glazed pagoda in her hands, its body shimmering with dreamlike nine-colored light, enveloping her in a sacred halo.

The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda is the descendant of one of the original Shrek Seven Devils, and is the number one support-type weapon spirit in the world. She is Ning Qingcheng, the current sect master of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, ranked eleventh on the continent's popularity list, a level ninety-nine demigod-level Limit Douluo, and possesses a four-word battle armor.

These three Limit Douluo giants stood like three insurmountable mountains in front of the Soul Guidance Train.

Titled Douluo seem to have become the standard in this era, but such a large number and such high quality gathered together is enough to make the world change color.

"What...what do you mean by this?" Leng Yulai recognized their identities and launched the first attack, her words filled with utter absurdity and rage. "You've gathered the top combat forces of the three major sects and openly intercepted the Federation's special express soul-guided train? Have you really gone mad?"

Faced with Leng Yulai's questioning, Tang Zhong, the Grand Elder of the Haotian Sect, stepped forward first. His expression of profound compassion deepened, his hands clasped together, and his voice carried a nauseating tone of lament:

"Alas...Lord Leng, you are mistaken. It is not that we are crazy, but that in this world, evil and heresy are too rampant and righteousness is not prevailing."

"As the pillars of righteousness on the continent, how can we sit idly by and watch evil spirit masters run rampant and poison the lives of the people? Today, we are merely acting on behalf of Heaven and representing justice to cleanse you, the filth that clings to the Spirit Pagoda."

"Hehe, the Grand Elder is absolutely right." Yu Yuanzu chuckled, his arrogant gaze sweeping over Leng Yulai and the other two as if scrutinizing ants. "Of course, Heaven has the virtue of cherishing life. If you know what's good for you, turn around and go back to Mingdu right now. Considering how hard you've worked to cultivate, we might be lenient and let bygones be bygones."

His words, though seemingly magnanimous, were in fact filled with an undeniable threat.

"It seems you are determined to stop us from going to Shrek City at all costs."

A majestic voice sounded.

Guan Yue took a step forward and instantly appeared beside Gu Chenyu and the other two, facing off against the three Limit Douluos.

His face was devoid of any gentleness, only a coldness like that of polar ice remained. His gaze was like lightning, sweeping over Yu Yuanzu and Tang Zhong, and finally landing on the sect master of the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile School.

"Shrek Academy, what a grand gesture and what a powerful influence! To be able to drive all three of your hidden sects to come out in full force and do something that defies the Federation and tramples on the law, it truly broadens my horizons."

Ning Qingcheng met Guan Yue's sharp gaze, her expression remaining calm and undisturbed, as if she were holding a sacred object. Her red lips parted slightly, yet carried an undeniable sense of justice:

"Your Excellency Guan Yue is mistaken; you are spouting nonsense. Our trip has absolutely nothing to do with Shrek Academy."

“We represent the call for justice and the condemnation of evil from countless people on the mainland. The Spirit Pagoda has sheltered evil spirit masters and nurtured dark martial spirits, and has long deviated from the righteous path. Its crimes deserve to be punished. We are merely following the will of Heaven and the people to eradicate this cancer.”

She paused, then turned her gaze to Guan Yue, her tone carrying a hint of magnanimity.

"Your Excellency Guan Yue is the Vice Hall Master of the Federation's War God Hall, a position of great prestige. If you are willing to remain neutral and observe from the sidelines, we will treat you with courtesy and will certainly not make things difficult for you."

"Hahaha!"

Guan Yue felt as if she had heard the most absurd joke in the world, and she laughed in anger.

The laughter was like rolling thunder, shaking the surrounding area, filled with endless mockery and anger.

Then, Guan Yue's laughter abruptly stopped, and the expression on his face turned as cold and menacing as ever.

A powerful aura representing the highest will of the Federation erupted from him, like an invisible giant wave, forcefully resisting the combined pressure exerted by the three Limit Douluos opposite him. He suddenly raised his hand, pointing with unquestionable authority at Gu Chenyu, Leng Yulai, and Long Xiao beside him, his voice like thunderclap, clearly resounding in everyone's ears:

"Absurd and utterly shameless."

"Open your eyes and see clearly, listen carefully."

"They—Gu Chenyu, Leng Yulai, Long Xiao, and all the staff of the Spirit Pagoda who are protecting this trip—are not evil soul masters. They are the most legitimate staff members who come from the Spirit Pagoda, are recognized by the Federation, have clear identity records, and act with integrity. They are indispensable pillars in the Federation's soul guidance technology and soul master research fields!"

"Regarding the innocent blood stained on their hands, the uprightness of their actions, and their maintenance of order on the mainland..."

Guan Yue's voice suddenly rose, carrying a thunderous rebuke:
"They are a thousand times, ten thousand times cleaner than you so-called righteous people who wave the banner of justice but engage in acts of highway robbery, trampling on federal laws, and stirring up turmoil on the continent for your own selfish interests!"

Every word was resounding, like a heavy hammer, striking the faces of Yu Yuanzu, Tang Zhong, and the sect master of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, and also striking the hearts of all the powerful figures from the three major sects behind them.

Guan Yue's actions on this trip represent the highest will of the Federation.

His public declaration completely tore off the other side's hypocritical veil of justice, exposing the true nature of the interception—a despicable act by Shrek and his allies to challenge the authority of the Federation in order to maintain their own position—to the light of day.

The plain was deathly silent. Only the echoing sound of Guan Yue's thunderous declaration reverberated between heaven and earth.

Yu Yuanzu's handsome face instantly turned ashen, and lightning flashed in his eyes.

The sorrow on Tang Zhong's face remained, but he murmured to himself:
"What a pity. Even the Federation has been deceived by the Spirit Tower's actions?"

Ning Qingcheng's hand holding the Nine-Treasure Glazed Pagoda tightened almost imperceptibly, causing the nine-colored light to ripple slightly.

The air was like a powder keg with a lit fuse, ready to explode at any moment.

After a long silence, Ning Qingcheng continued:
"Lord Guan Yue, your words are a bit too much..."

Before he finished speaking, something strange happened.

A chilling, bone-piercing aura, seemingly emanating from the deepest depths of the Netherworld, seeped out from the ground beneath everyone's feet without warning.

This ghostly aura didn't spread or diffuse; instead, like living, venomous vines, it instantly coiled around everyone's ankles, carrying a chilling and corrosive power that penetrated straight to the soul, intending to drag everyone into the eternal abyss.

"So much nonsense."

A hoarse, cold voice, like two pieces of rusted iron rubbing together, filled with undisguised disgust, suddenly resounded deep within everyone's soul.

It was none other than Ghost Emperor Douluo, Ghost Flame, who made his move!

You wouldn't know until you make a move, and once you do, it's all about killing, without warning, and extremely ruthless!

The target was the core that supported the other side: Ning Qingcheng, the sect master of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School.

To capture a thief, first capture his king; to defeat an enemy, first cut off his support troops!
If we can severely damage or control this top support player on the continent, the battle will be reversed instantly.
