Douluo: Dream Overlord

Chapter 140 Communication with Parents

"Thank you for your help, seniors."

Shi Guang bowed to the three men and left the academic affairs office after they nodded.

After Shi Guang emerged from inside, the polite smile on his face vanished instantly.

He was no fool; he could tell from the three deans' predicament that they were in a difficult position.

After all, as the chairmen appointed by the Heavenly Dou Empire, their ideas clearly leaned more towards the various nobles, and they paid attention to their considerations.

Shi Guang pondered that if he succeeded, the Heaven Dou Empire would likely send several Title Douluos to protect his safety.

As for failure, then Guangming can only turn to Dugu Bo and the old man to act as his face.

This is also the best possible solution, as Shi Guang can only rely on these two Title Douluo in this situation.

Lost in thought, he walked back home along the playground.

Although going to Yu Feng's place would be wonderful, as it would allow me to be with her until the end of time.

But how can a real man indulge in the pleasures of a gentle life?

Time doesn't want to end up like those talentless Soul Masters, spending their youth indulging in the company of beautiful women and prematurely ruining their health.

They're at the prime of their lives, how can they let their potential be wasted so early?

Back in the dormitory building, it was Monday, and Shiguang's parents were both teaching classes.

Looking at the empty room, Shi Guang came to his own room, sat cross-legged, and began to meditate.

Time flew by and it was already evening.

Hearing the sound of the door opening and closing, Shi Guang snapped out of his meditation, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

Although his current speed of absorbing and refining soul power is slower than before, with the help of meditation, his refining speed is still faster than that of other soul masters of the same generation.

Shi Guang pondered that if he continued to cultivate at this pace, he should be able to break through to the Soul Emperor realm in a few years.

At that time, the title of the number one genius on the mainland will fall on his head.

It should be noted that even Qin Ming only advanced to Soul Emperor in his thirties, yet he was still recognized by the Soul Master world as the number one genius on the continent.

With the help of meditation, Shi Guang was able to break through to the Soul Emperor realm more than ten years ahead of schedule. Whether he had talent or not is debatable, but meditation was definitely very helpful to him.

At that time, not only will the Soul Master world be shaken by the breakthrough in time, but even Pope Bibi Dong of the Spirit Hall will surely be unable to resist taking action.

After all, there is only one known person in the Douluo Continent who possesses twin martial souls, and that is Bibi Dong.

Now that time has come into play, his talent is even more outstanding than that of Bibi Dong back then, breaking through to the Soul Emperor at less than two thousand years old.

Such talent is bound to attract envy and jealousy.

This is also why Shi Guang needs to learn the mental power techniques to conceal the aura of his soul rings and realm.

He was afraid that someone might want to harm him, since it's easy to dodge a spear in the open but hard to guard against a hidden arrow.

As they came out of the room, Shi Nian and her mother had just returned. After hanging their coats on the hanger, the two changed into slippers and went into the living room.

Seeing the time, they smiled.

"I heard you're going to participate in the Continental Soul Master Tournament?"

As Shi Nian asked the question, he used his soul power to smooth out the wrinkles on his suit.

"Well, in less than half a month, we'll be heading to the competition."

Shi Guang nodded, his tone calm, showing no concern for the competition.

"Do you need us to accompany you to the competition?"

Shi's mother picked up the vegetable basket and said with a smile, "Tonight's dishes are all your favorites. To reward you for the competition, I've decided that from now on, every meal will be your favorite cuisine."

"No need, I'm not a child anymore."

Shi Guang looked somewhat helpless and shook his head, saying, "Our team for this competition is led by a Soul Saint, so you don't need to worry about my safety."

As he said, the strength of the characters in the early stages of Douluo Continent was not as inflated as it was later.

In the early stages, even Soul Saints were considered the backbone of the continent.

Soul Saints enjoy high-level resources in the Soul Master world. Even if they join the Empire or the Spirit Hall, they still receive offerings and can be considered to be at the top of the social hierarchy.

As you can see, after Tang San was promoted to Soul Saint, he was also appointed as the Blue King by the Heaven Dou Empire.

If Time Traveler achieves the title of Soul Saint, what kind of king will the Heaven Dou Empire bestow upon him?

The King of Dreams?

Shi Guang felt something was off, and Shi Nian and Shi's mother nodded in agreement.

Indeed, with the Soul Saint leading the team, they are more than capable of protecting Shi Guang and the others.

After all, the Heaven Dou Empire, the Star Luo Empire, and the Spirit Hall have an agreement that no Title Douluo-level powerhouse can attack low-level Soul Masters from the three sides. This effectively prevents the other side from stifling their own geniuses.

Battles in the world of Soul Masters are not limited to direct confrontations; they also include tactics such as poisoning and assassination.

Spreading rumors and other low-class tactics.

Shi Guang pondered, knowing that with his strength, he could react in advance to these tactics.

His body, strengthened by the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum and the Ice and Fire Immortal Grass, was already impervious to swords and spears and immune to all poisons; ordinary toxins had no effect on him at all.

Shi Guang is no longer afraid of hidden arrows; all he lacks now is the strength to rival a Title Douluo.

As I said before, you need to play it safe and develop your character cautiously.

Shi Nian, who was watching the moment, said, "By the way, speaking of the All-Continent Soul Master Competition..."

I will be accompanying Canghui Academy as a team leader in the competition, since the normal operation of Canghui Academy cannot function without your uncle.

Time nodded, and just like in the original story, Shi Nian participated in the Continental Soul Master Competition as the team leader of Canghui Academy.

Shi Guang seemed to remember something and said to Shi Nian, "By the way, you'd better not provoke others for no reason, especially low-level Soul Masters. Be careful not to be caught off guard and end up in trouble."

At that time, it was not mentioned that the person in question was Tang San.

He had two considerations. First, Shi Nian didn't know Tang San. Now that time had changed, if the other party approached Tang San because of his words, he would be in deep trouble.

Secondly, Tang San's current strength is not as great as in the original work. He has not consumed the Purple Demon Eye of the Forgotten River Autumn Water Dew, nor has he reached the Mustard Seed realm, which allows him to see through illusions and directly reach reality.

With the purer and more powerful spiritual energy than in the original story after breaking through to Soul Saint by consuming immortal herbs for ten years, and with the enhanced Remnant Dream Martial Soul, he should be able to easily control Tang San.

What Shi Guang wanted to think about wasn't Tang San's life or death, but rather the troublesome things that would happen after Tang San's death.

First of all, as Tang San's guardian and as the Haotian Douluo, one of the world's top experts, Tang Hao would certainly not stand idly by.

If he learned that his only son had died at his hands, this Title Douluo would probably go completely insane and wipe out everyone and everything related to Tang San.

At that time, time will truly bring unspeakable suffering.
