Douluo Continent: The Peerless Tang Sect - Sharingan Intercepts Tianmeng

Chapter 5: Xiao Qiang, the One Being Targeted

"Go get your second spirit now? Although I'd love to take you there now, you already have your third spirit ring, so you don't need any more spirit ring slots right now. I can't make it your spirit ring right now."

"Is it only possible to obtain it when there is an empty Soul Ring slot? I understand."

Recalling Huo Yuhao's storyline in the original novel, Tianmeng asked Huo Yuhao to go find Bingdi when he lacked a second spirit ring.

Given Tianmeng's fondness for Bingdi, it seems necessary for her to have an empty soul ring slot. However, the next soul ring requires level 40, while Xiao Qiang only broke through level 30 half a year ago.

Considering that Xue Di only said that he would choose to transform into human form after he could not find Bing Di in the far north, the worst-case scenario is that in the original work, Huo Yuhao had just taken Bing Di away when Xue Di could not find Bing Di and began to prepare to transform into human form.

In the original story, it took Huo Yuhao about a year to reach level 20 and travel to the far north. This required time to merge with the ice land and persuade the Snow Emperor, which meant that Xiao Qiang had to break through level 40 and reach the far north in less than a year.

Reaching level 40 in less than a year, without any magical herbs, meant time was tight and the task was heavy. Fortunately, this was almost the last time Xiao Qiang needed to train like his life depended on it.

With Ice Emperor's second martial soul, Snow Emperor as bodyguard, and the ten-thousand-year-old Xuanbing Marrow beneath the Earth Dragon Gate that Xiao Qiang knows about, as well as the Yin-Yang Hot Pot of Ice and Fire, all that's needed.

Even if Xiao Qiang were to lie down and not work, he should still be able to reach the eighth ring of Soul Douluo before the age of 20, and by the age of 30 he should be able to challenge for the Limit Douluo, or even already be the Limit Douluo.

Although this estimate suggests he'll be a bit slower than Huo Yuhao, Huo Yuhao has a ton of advantages and benefits from being a chosen one. Compared to those "cheat kings," Xiao Qiang will indeed have far fewer advantages.

Even so, it's enough. Not to mention that he can reach the Limit Douluo level before the age of 30, or even become a Limit Douluo, just reaching the Title Douluo level at the age of 30 is already a top-notch genius.

This era only extends to Douluo Continent II, and while the prestige of a Titled Douluo is not as high as that of Douluo Continent I, it is still significant.

In Douluo Continent II, as long as you can cultivate to the level of a Title Douluo, even the weakest Title Douluo, the emperor will give you face and even treat you like a brother.

The titled Douluo whom Princess Xu Jiujiu of the Star Luo Empire called Grandma Manyi was actually just a titled Douluo, not a Super Douluo who had reached level 95.

With Tianmeng, Xiao Qiang doesn't need to worry much about talent or spirit rings. What he needs to worry about most now is whether he can grow up safely.

As a top genius of the Sun Moon Empire, the only person he needs to hide from in order to grow up safely is the Dragon God Douluo Mu En, who has one foot in the grave.

"Alright, I've also modified your other two spirit rings. Now all three of your spirit rings are 2000-year level spirit rings," Tianmeng said while Xiao Qiang was thinking.

"By the way, your second spirit ring skill happens to be simulation. Just simulate your spirit rings as normal two yellow and one purple ones, so that others won't arrest you and interrogate you about your spirit rings. I'm going to sleep now. Don't call me unless it's important."

As Tianmeng spoke, she lay down in Xiao Qiang's spiritual sea, displaying an enviable quality of sleep.

As Tianmeng fell into a deep sleep, Xiao Qiang slowly opened his eyes. As Xiao Qiang's eyes transformed into two-tomoe Sharingan, two purple thousand-year soul rings and a platinum soul ring surrounded his body. These were the two soul rings modified by Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and Tianmeng's own soul ring.

Subsequently, under Xiao Qiang's control, two of the three spirit rings turned yellow, while Tianmeng's spirit ring turned purple, showcasing the so-called optimal spirit ring ratio of two yellow and one purple.

As for why it's called...

As a former reader of Douluo Continent, I know that Grandmaster's theories are notoriously unreliable.

Picking up the throwing knife that had fallen to the ground, Xiao Qiang was still quite satisfied with the minimum he had obtained, even though it was only the minimum. Since he couldn't forcibly take Huo Yuhao's Electrolux anyway, and he had already gained quite a lot, Xiao Qiang decided to leave.

However, at this moment, Yi Shengjiao suddenly appeared and stopped Xiao Qiang from leaving.

"Stop right there! Who gave you permission to leave? You almost killed Xiao Yuhao with that bomb!"

Xiao Qiang turned his head to look in the direction from which the voice came. There stood Huo Yuhao, Tang Ya, and Bei Bei, and it was Tang Ya who had spoken up to accuse Xiao Qiang.

Xiao Qiang ignored Tang Ya's reprimand and looked at Huo Yuhao. "It looks like you're alright, that's good. I was worried that the aircraft I gave you would overload and explode."

"Hey! Don't make it sound so easy! If it weren't for Beibei and me reacting quickly, Xiaoyuhao would have been blown up by your soul tool!" Tang Ya said angrily.

Xiao Qiang looked completely innocent. "You mean the soul tool exploded?"

"Nonsense! Do you even know what kind of soul tool you gave Xiaoyuhao?! It exploded!"

"I know, but that thing was originally my last resort for escaping. All the soul power I had stored up would be released in a short time, so the probability of it exploding is not small."

"Then how dare you let Xiaoyuhao use it! Beibei, don't stop me! I'm going to teach him a lesson today!"

Tang Ya released her martial soul, preparing to fight Xiao Qiang, who still looked completely innocent.

"Is there a problem? I already said that thing is for saving your life in the last moment. If you don't use it, you're doomed. If you use it, you might survive."

"Faced with a soul beast that is at least 1500 years old, and with only two soul rings, Huo Yuhao would have been doomed if he stayed here. My soul tool at least ensured that he wouldn't die at that time, but afterwards..."

Xiao Qiang glanced at Huo Yuhao, then at Bei Bei and Tang Ya. "So far, the outcome is good."

"you!"

Tang Ya said angrily, but Bei Bei stopped her.

"Alright, Teacher Xiaoya, Brother Li Feiyu is right. If it is a soul beast that is over 1500 years old, it is indeed the best choice for Xiaoyuhao to leave."

"But I just can't stand it!"

Beibei smiled helplessly, then raised her hand to comfort Tang Ya.

Not far from Beibei and Tang Ya, a Soul Douluo was observing Beibei's situation from a distance.

Just as Xiao Qiang had predicted, as the great-grandson of the Sea God Pavilion Master, Bei Bei was only there to help Tang Ya hunt for her third spirit ring, but a Soul Douluo bodyguard had been secretly watching over her. However, at this moment, his gaze was drawn to Xiao Qiang.

"At this age, a three-ring Soul Master with the best Soul Ring configuration is not studying at Shrek Academy, and the corpse of his Soul Beast has also disappeared..."

The Soul Douluo who was secretly protecting Beibei thought for a moment, then dialed a Soul Guide phone.

"Father, you wanted to see me."

"Yang Peng, I remember you haven't finished your mission with the Shrek Academy Inspection Team yet."
