Reincarnated Rock Prince, you're saying this is Douluo Continent?

Chapter 153: Xiao Xiao: I finally feel something for you...

"Zhongli, the matches these past two days have been so boring!"

In the VIP section, Paimon watched the game and said, feeling a little sleepy.

Aside from the delicious food and pastries, the competition these past two days has been rather boring.

She, Paimon, had seen "high-level games" before; this kind of childish game was so boring it would make anyone fall asleep.

After hearing this.

Xu Jiawei and the others looked at each other, but they also felt that Paimon's words made sense.

She possesses the martial spirit of the Martial God, so it's quite normal for her to find this kind of competition boring.

After all, every time the God of War takes action, the entire continent is shaken and the weather changes.

“Growth takes time. They are still young, full of vigor and vitality, at the age of growth.”

"I see the future of Douluo Continent in them."

Zhongli said without changing his expression.

"The future of Douluo Continent?"

Paimon blinked, glanced at the scene of two novices fighting each other on the stage, and couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his eye.

Is this the future of Douluo Continent?

Wasn't Douluo Continent over?
These guys have all sorts of elemental energy but they can't use it at all. They need to rely on so-called soul rings to activate the elemental energy in their bodies. This... this is really too weak.

In the Douluo Continent, not all Soul Masters possess elemental energy.

Only those whose martial souls possess attributes will generate corresponding elemental energy within their bodies.

For example, the Fire Wolf Martial Soul will generate fire elements within the host's body.

Soul Masters' grasp of the elements is too superficial; they only know how to apply them to some basic aspects.

"Paimon, no one is born strong. They may be weak now, but their future is promising. Don't underestimate them."

Paimon: "..."

Anyone could say that, but Paimon felt that Zhongli's intelligence was being insulted by her saying it.

The Rock Demon God, who reached his peak upon debut, even said that no one is born strong.

"Humph~"

Paimon crossed his arms and said, "I don't believe it!"

"Oh?"

Zhongli wasn't annoyed. It was just some polite talk, so why get upset?

The contestants on stage are from the Star Luo Empire. Since this is the Star Luo Empire's home ground, it's only natural to say some nice things.

Paimon, do you still want to eat something delicious?
"Humans have short lifespans, but possess talents and wisdom that most soul beasts lack; this is a fact."

At this moment, Xue Di, who was sitting next to Zhong Li, spoke up.

As a soul beast, she was unwilling to accept that humans were stronger than soul beasts, but she had to admit that humans were an extremely special race.

It takes a hundred years of accumulation by a soul beast, and can be achieved when a human genius awakens.

Soul beasts accumulate over a thousand years, while human geniuses can achieve the same level of cultivation in just a few years.

What a soul beast accumulates over 100,000 years, a human genius can achieve in just a few decades.

How unfair is this to soul beasts?
Fortunately, human lifespan is short, otherwise soul beasts would have no chance of survival.

Even now, the soul beast is facing a life-or-death situation.

Human lifespan is short, but the number of Soul Masters is increasing, and the number of strong individuals is also increasing. There simply aren't enough high-level Soul Beasts for Soul Masters to hunt!

The far north is relatively better off, protected by the Three Heavenly Kings, and very few powerful individuals dare to set foot there.

The forests on land will suffer.

"Ah~"

Seeing Xue Di say this, Paimon blinked. Of course, she knew about human talents and wisdom.

Back in Teyvat, more than one god had said this to her.

Of course, it could also be addressed to travelers.

She just found the competition boring; she didn't say anything about humans!

In the audience, two girls were also preoccupied with something other than the competition.

Their eyes remained fixed on the audience seats, searching for something.

"Xiao Xiao, it's been several days, and Barbatos still hasn't shown up. Could it be that he really doesn't have the money to buy a ticket?"

Wang Dong'er said with a hint of helplessness. This best friend is great in every way, except she's a bit too persistent.

I come here every day, but I'm not interested in the competition; I'm looking for people.

As Xiao Xiao's best friend, she naturally had to help her find it.

"Probably, maybe...it should be."

"However, there are so many people here, perhaps I haven't looked carefully enough."

Xiao Xiao said with some disappointment.

So many days have passed, and there's still no sign of Barbatos.

But Barbatos didn't seem like the type to break his word.

Wang Dong'er: "..."

This best friend is seriously poisoned!

Is this love?

It's really terrible!

"We've looked at it carefully three times already..."

"Besides, Barbatos's appearance is so striking that he stands out in a crowd, isn't it?"

Wang Dong'er advised.

She felt that if her best friend kept searching, she would go crazy.

It's truly pitiful that someone so young is already suffering from the pain of love.

"No, Dong'er, listen to me, I must not have looked carefully enough!"

Xiao Xiao waved her hand and said with a firm expression, but a hint of disappointment flashed in her eyes.

Could it be that Barbatos didn't want to come to the game with her, which is why he made an excuse to refuse the tickets she offered?

Thinking of this, Xiao Xiao's face showed a bitter expression; she was truly devastated.

She finally felt a spark, but Barbatos made her lose so completely.

"What...what's wrong with me?"

"Aside from being a bit short, I have excellent looks, outstanding talent, and twin martial souls..."

Seeing that Xiao Xiao looked like she was about to cry, Wang Dong'er quickly said, "Xiao Xiao, let's look again. Maybe we really didn't look carefully enough."

"Of course, it's also possible that he had something to do and couldn't find the time to watch the game."

"Besides, there's still a long time left in the game, he'll definitely show up!"

"He won't appear in the knockout stage, he won't appear in the round-robin stage, but he'll definitely appear in the semifinals and the finals!"

Wang Dong'er's words of comfort did have an effect, brightening Xiao Xiao's eyes.

"Dong'er, you're right!"

"It's over, we're getting deeper and deeper into this mess..."

Wang Dong'er's eye twitched, and she thought with some guilt.

This best friend's feelings were completely one-sided; Barbatos didn't like her at all, it was just a friendly conversation.

But she did this...

They will most likely return empty-handed and without success.

"Fine, what can I do? I'm your best friend."

"Please ask my eldest and second fathers to investigate Barbatos's whereabouts."

Wang Dong'er glanced at Xiao Xiao and thought to herself.

"I still need to explain to my eldest and second uncles that Barbatos is not someone I like..."

“If my first and second uncles misunderstand and beat Barbatos up first after finding him, then they could do more harm than good.”

Wang Dong'er is not in a relationship; she is still quite intelligent.

She has some means to contact Niu Tian and Titan, and she doesn't need to return to Haotian Sect; she can simply wait in Xingluo City.

It should be noted that the Haotian Sect is not far from Xingluo City!

Ten thousand years ago, when the Douluo Continent was still just two great empires, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, one of the three upper sects, supported the Heaven Dou Empire.

The Haotian Sect, the leader of the three upper sects, supports the Star Luo Empire.

As for the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, they chose neutrality in order to maintain a balance between the two empires.
