Douluo Continent: The Ice Dragon King Martial Soul, Ma Xiaotao is Addicted

Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.

The vast plain that had been temporarily cleared on the western outskirts of Shrek City had now completely changed its appearance.

A massive "city" composed of giant metal supports and soul-guided lights rose from the ground.

This is the venue for the first Soul Tool Expo hosted by Shrek Academy.

The morning sunlight dispelled the thin mist, and a long queue had already formed at the entrance of the venue.

Soul masters, merchants, nobles, scholars from all over the continent, and even some from the Sun Moon Empire, created a bustling atmosphere.

The air was filled with the smells of metal, leather, and all sorts of strange odors, emanating from the entire Douluo Continent. The buzzing of conversations blended into a deep background sound wave.

Today marks the opening of the expo.

As for Xianlin'er's highly anticipated ninth-level soul master seminar, it concluded successfully yesterday.

As expected, Xianliner simply shared some of her general insights and directional guidance, naturally refraining from disclosing the core technical details.

Even so, it was enough to benefit countless Soul Masters greatly, and the venue was packed with people that day, with a very enthusiastic response.

This also allowed Xianlin'er and Shrek Academy's Soul Guidance Department to achieve a leap in status within the Soul Guidance Department!
Next year, the Soul Guidance Department will definitely be able to recruit many talented Soul Guidance Masters from all over the country.

But today, the expo is the real star.

Enter the main venue of the expo.

Looking around, more than a thousand booths of varying sizes are scattered across the landscape, arranged according to regional divisions.

Each platform belongs to an independent faction or individual, displaying their most prized soul tool masterpieces.

The exhibits were dazzling, and the vast majority of them were of the type that could directly enhance the combat power of Soul Masters.

For example, various soul-guided ray guns and soul-guided cannons with different shapes and gleaming cold light.

There are also heavy or lightweight defensive soul-guided shields and armor.

And all kinds of flying soul tools that can grant soul masters the ability to fly.

The air was filled with the occasional "hum" of soul power charging, or a booth activating a defensive soul tool to attract attention, the flashing light shield drawing crowds and discussions.

As the nation with the most advanced soul tool technology, the Sun Moon Empire naturally had many participating forces.

Although their number of booths was not as many as the combined number of the three major empires' home forces, each Sun Moon Empire booth was almost completely surrounded by crowds, overflowing with people and creating an exceptionally lively atmosphere.

People craned their necks, eager to catch a glimpse of the latest achievements of the Sun and Moon Empire.

The most popular booth was Mingdetang's.

On the huge exhibition stand, a flying soul tool shimmering with a dark gold metallic luster floated quietly in its own display light pillar.

The prominent sign next to it reads: "Level 9 Flight Soul Guidance Device - Golden Cicada Wing".

The design of the Golden Cicada Wings resembles a golden cicada about to take flight, and the most amazing feature is its two pairs of metal wings that are as thin as cicada wings.

Under the glow of soul power, the wings appeared translucent, with extremely intricate soul guidance patterns covering the inside. With the subtle fluctuations of energy flow, the wings fluttered naturally as if they were alive!

This is clearly a masterpiece that utilizes cutting-edge bionic technology, immediately sparking continuous amazement and discussion.

Although the exhibit was clearly marked "Not for sale, for technical demonstration only," its extraordinary level of technology deeply shocked everyone who saw it. Clearly, the Sun Moon Empire's technology far surpassed that of the three original empires of the Douluo Continent. Let alone a level nine soul tool core, even this bionic shell would be something the three empires would likely not be able to produce even in a hundred years.

However, amidst the bustling sea of ​​the Sun and Moon Empire, in the three major empire regions, there was one booth whose popularity was in no way inferior, and even showed a tendency to overshadow Mingde Hall—it was the booth where Tang Sect was located.

The Tang Clan enjoys special privileges; their booth occupies a much larger area, four or five times the size of a regular booth, and is located in the center.

The entire booth design is simple and bright, with blue and white as the main colors, and a huge Tang Clan emblem hanging high above it, shining brightly in the sunlight.

The booth was divided into several areas, neatly displaying various finished and semi-finished models of soul tools recently mass-produced by the Tang Sect. From common soul guide rays and shields to some exquisite life-assistance soul tools, the variety was complete, but the level was not very high.

Many of the outer disciples of the Tang Clan were dressed in matching blue uniforms and had been temporarily summoned by Ye Chen to "work".

They moved through the crowd, enthusiastically introducing the functions, prices, and reservation methods of the exhibits to interested visitors, their faces showing pride and a touch of nervousness.

The scene was orderly, indicating that the participants were well-trained.

Ye Chen personally oversaw operations at the very center of the booth.

Before him was a slightly elevated display stand with only three items on it, next to three prominent crystal plaques: Aurora Shadow (a prototype of a Level 7 flying soul tool), the second-generation All-Encompassing Communicator, and the Super Milk Bottle.

Ye Chen was speaking eloquently to the crowd gathered in front of the display stand. His voice was not loud, but it clearly reached everyone's ears, carrying a calm and confident air.

"Ladies and gentlemen, these three items are the core products that our Tang Clan has brought to this expo."

Ye Chen pointed to the area behind the first crystal nameplate.

"This is 'Aurora Shadow,' a level seven flying soul tool. Its speed, agility, and stability far surpass those of ordinary flying soul tools."

"However, this thing is too difficult to make. I have only made this one prototype so far, and I can't let everyone fly it around and try it out. Those who trust our Tang Clan's technology can make an appointment for a test drive. We welcome them very much."

"If you think this is just empty talk, that's fine too. Please move on to look at two other more concrete things."

A cacophony of voices erupted from the crowd.

Obviously, the lack of a physical display and test drive has raised concerns among many people.

Moreover, this thing is a level seven soul tool, and its price can reach one million gold soul coins, which is not something that ordinary forces can afford.

Ye Chen didn't care and moved his finger to the second nameplate.

There were dozens of exquisite silver bracelets neatly arranged there—these were the second-generation Universal Communication Devices.

There is also a special experience area next to it, with several rows of tables and chairs, and the same bracelets are placed on the tables.

"This is our new product—the Wanxiang Communicator." Ye Chen picked up a bracelet to demonstrate.

Because Ye Chen's first-generation Universal Communication Device was not mass-produced, the outside world had no idea about it.

Let alone the second generation, even the first generation would still cause a sensation.

However, the second-generation Ye Chen has made some improvements, making it more compact and exquisite, which naturally comes at a higher price.

As Ye Chen spoke, he quickly pressed a few keys on a miniature soul-guided keyboard on the side of the bracelet. A soft light screen was projected from above the bracelet, clearly displaying several lines of text:

"Welcome to experience the Tang Clan's second-generation All-Encompassing Communicator. Text transmission, communication without boundaries." (End of Chapter)
