Douluo: The Thousand-Faced Angel in the Dragon King

Chapter 52 The Heavenly Sea Alliance Grand Competition, Tang Wulin

Qian Mo clasped his hands in a fist salute to Zhuo Shi and said flatteringly, "I owe my current strength to your teachings on the methods of using Qi and blood."

His ability to effectively utilize the power of Qi and blood is largely due to the generous teachings he received from the corrupt world.

Zhuo Shi was completely open-minded, not only teaching Qian Mo how to use Qi and blood, but also meticulously explaining his insights into the Nine Forms of the Crimson Dragon, a unique martial art he created.

In the original work, the Nine Forms of the Crimson Dragon are called the best way to utilize the power of Qi and Blood. Although Qian Mo does not understand why the best way to utilize Qi and Blood appears at Shrek Academy instead of the Body Sect.

However, none of that matters. Qianmo and Zhuoshi have no connection whatsoever, but Zhuoshi is willing to teach him his life's work, and he is still very grateful to Zhuoshi.

Zhuoshi waved his hand, "It's not easy for the inner academy to have a good seedling for refining qi and blood. I just can't bear to bury your talent in qi and blood."

"Oh, right," Zhuo Shi seemed to remember something, his eyes suddenly lighting up as he leaned closer to Qian Mo and asked, "Hey, Qian Mo, what level are you at in forging?"

Qian Mo paused for a moment before truthfully replying, "Level four, I'm about to break through to level five."

"Hahaha," Zhuo Shi laughed loudly, beaming with pride, "I've only taught you for a few months, and you can already wield your Qi and Blood Power so well. That crazy old man has been training you for over a year, and you haven't even broken through to level four. Indeed, I am far stronger than that crazy old man, hahaha!"

Qian Mo twitched the corner of his mouth, speechless for a moment. Could these two things be compared?

At this moment, a woman arrived at the backyard of the Zhuoshi family. With white hair and a beautiful face, she was Shen Yi, Zhuoshi's student and Wu Changkong's junior sister.

"Teacher Shen!" Qian Mo and Gu Yuena greeted him together. Qian Mo had been frequenting Zhuoshi for the past few months, and over time she had become familiar with Shen Yi.

"Oh?" Shen Yi's eyes lit up when he saw Qian Mo and Gu Yuena. "Qian Mo, Na'er, you two are here too! That's perfect, I don't need to contact you two separately."

"Is there something you need, Teacher Shen?" Qianmo asked curiously.

Shen Yi cleared his throat and asked, "Qian Mo, do you know about the Tianhai Alliance Grand Tournament?"

Qianmo thought for a moment before saying, "Is it a competition organized by the Tianhai Alliance, which is a coalition of cities on the East Coast?"

Shen Yi nodded. "The Tianhai Alliance has specially invited Shrek Academy to send a team to exchange and learn from their previous champions in an exhibition match."

"So, what do you want with us?" Gu Yuena asked.

Shen Yi smiled slightly, "The academy originally planned for a fourth-ring Soul Master from the outer academy to lead the team to participate in the exhibition match."

"But the Pavilion Master suddenly decided to have you lead the team to Tianhai City for the exhibition match, which will be a good opportunity for you to gain experience. That's why I'm here to ask you what you think."

Qian Mo hesitated for a moment before asking, "Who will the academy send for the projects?"

Shen Yi replied, "You, Na'er, Xinglan, Lizhi, and three Soul Sect students from the outer academy."

"Okay," Qian Mo's eyes sparkled. Ten years had passed since he transmigrated, and it was time to meet the original protagonist.

"And what about you, Na'er?" Shen Yi asked Gu Yuena.

"I'll go," Gu Yuena's words were exactly what Shen Yi expected. If Qian Mo was willing, Gu Yuena would definitely be willing too.

Shen Yi smiled with satisfaction. "Very good. Pack up and we'll leave the day after tomorrow. The academy will reward you with contribution points for leading the team in this competition."

……

The day of departure arrived quickly. Shen Yi, as the teacher leading the team, and Qian Mo, as the captain, led Gu Yuena, Ye Xinglan, and others to form the Shrek Academy group, boarding the Soul Guidance Train to Tianhai City.

As soon as they boarded the Soul Guidance Train, Gu Yuena naturally pulled Qian Mo to sit with her. Xu Lizhi, who was sitting in the back row, couldn't help but smile like an aunt when he saw this. Ye Xinglan glanced at it and then turned her head to look at the scenery outside the window.

Qianmo has a habit of easily getting sleepy when sitting in a car.

This time was no different. As Qianmo watched the changing scenery outside the window, a wave of drowsiness soon washed over her, and she drew the carriage curtain and drifted off to sleep.

After an unknown amount of time, Qian Mo slowly woke up, noticing the pressure on her shoulder and the familiar, lingering fragrance wafting towards her.

Sure enough, when Qian Mo turned his head, he saw Gu Yuena sleeping with her head on his shoulder. Her breathing was even, and she had a faint smile on her face. It seemed that she would feel particularly relaxed leaning on him.

Qian Mo smiled slightly, a warm feeling inexplicably flashing through her heart.

As the boundless blue sea flashed past the window, Qianmo knew that Tianhai City was approaching.

"Na'er, we're almost at Tianhai City, get up," Qianmo said gently in Gu Yuena's ear.

Gu Yuena opened her sleepy eyes, stood up, stretched her body with her arms outstretched, then turned her head and pinched Qian Mo's shoulder, "Is it numb?"

Qianmo shook her head. "It's alright. It's actually quite warm and comfortable leaning against you."

"That's good," Gu Yuena smiled gently, and picked up Qianmo's water glass from the small table to drink.

"Sigh, even riding in a car I get bombarded with PDA." Xu Lizhi, sitting in the back, said sourly after seeing this scene.

The latest novel is first published here!

Tianhai City is the largest city on the east coast, adjacent to the sea, with an excellent location. It boasts the largest port and dock on the entire continent.

The Eastern Navy, one of the three major navies of the Federation, is stationed outside Tianhai City, and in the distance, one can vaguely see huge warships anchored in the sea.

Therefore, Tianhai City holds a pivotal position on the continent, which is why it became the location for the Tianhai Alliance Grand Tournament.

The Shrek Academy students disembarked at their stop, checked into a luxury hotel, and awaited the start of the Tianhai Alliance Grand Competition.

Early the next morning, the teams representing each city had already entered the stadium to wait.

The huge stadium was packed with people, and the stands were already full.

Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, and Xu Xiaoyan, a trio from Class Zero of Donghai Academy, sat on the viewing platform, looking around curiously. Tang Wulin, in particular, seemed a little dizzy from being in such a large place for the first time, and was extremely curious about everything around him.

"I'm so hungry, does anyone have anything to eat?" Tang Wulin, who was chatting with Xie Xie, suddenly heard a voice beside him.

Just like in the original story, Xu Lizhi wandered around the viewing platform looking for food and encountered Tang Wulin.

After exchanging a few words, their shared love of food quickly resonated with each other. They hit it off immediately and soon began exchanging soul communication numbers.

And then, that was it. Xu Lizhi was arrogantly dragged away by Ye Xinglan.

Tang Wulin watched the two leave, and then saw them join a handsome young man and a pretty silver-haired girl.

Just then, the silver-haired girl's gaze fell upon them, and she met Tang Wulin's eyes.

That one glance stirred a strange, indescribable feeling within Tang Wulin.
