Transmigrating into Douluo Continent: I Am a Master

Chapter 181 Mysterious Visit

Huo Yuhao's voice sounded like he was disappointed in Long Xiaoyao; he couldn't understand Long Xiaoyao's behavior.

"Cough cough."

Emperor Xu Tianran's voice came from the amplified soul guide device.

"Look, all the true heroes of the world are now in my Mingdu City, which truly brings glory to my Sun and Moon Empire."

"I know some people have been quite vocal and have expressed their dissatisfaction with my firm exclusion of the Star Luo Empire. But I don't care."

"After I die, centuries later, after the Star Luo Empire has fallen, people will uncover the truth of this history and learn of the Star Luo Empire's filth and depravity. And I will be posthumously honored as the first person to punish the Star Luo Empire!"

Xu Tianran's voice was impassioned, as if the truth of the whole incident was exactly as he described.

"You're talking nonsense! You're just slandering your enemy! You dog emperor! I won't allow you to insult my country like this!"

At this moment, not far from the Tang Clan's group, a member of another sect stepped forward, pointed at Xu Tianran's nose, and began to hurl insults.

"I will not allow you to insult the emperor."

Orange took a step forward on the platform and swung her arm.

The royal soul master legion, clad in golden armor, immediately subdued the sect disciple. He tried to struggle, but it was no use against several well-equipped soul masters.

As Orange looked down, she was relieved just a moment ago that she hadn't spotted that familiar teammate among the Shrek Academy players in their dark green uniforms.

But the next second, her gaze shifted, her pupils suddenly contracted, and she saw the boy she had been thinking about day and night and knew all too well among a group of people dressed in white.

Huo Yuhao—With your intelligence, how could you not see through Xu Tianran's scheme? Why did your academy send you here? You're so stupid!

Ju Zi was very agitated, but fortunately, she had her back to Xu Tianran, so he didn't notice anything amiss. She quickly suppressed her shock and returned to Xu Tianran's side, maintaining the composure of an empress of the Sun Moon Empire.

Xu Tianran grasped Ju Zi's hand with satisfaction and said with a smile, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Xu Tianran didn't take this little incident to heart. Since his legs started to show signs of recovery, Xu Tianran's temper had improved a lot, but he was still unpredictable.

Xu Tianran continued using the megaphone, saying, "Alright, that was just a little incident. It seems our elites thought I was being long-winded. Now, let's hand the microphone to my queen so she can read out the competition rules."

Next, Orange talked about the usual platitudes used in previous Soul Fighting Tournaments, such as "friendship first, competition second." She also discussed the reforms to the new tournament format.

After all, the organizer is the Sun Moon Empire, which has a large number of Soul Masters. Therefore, without greatly affecting the balance, some changes were made to the competition system to support Soul Masters, such as removing the limit on flight altitude.

"Next, I hereby announce that the Grand Competition is now open." After saying this, several soul-guided giant cannons fired salutes into the sky, and the audience cheered. The contestants below the stage applauded.

After that, all the participating teams entered the preparation area.

The preparation areas are also divided into different levels. Teams like Tangmen, which have no historical achievements, only have a simple sunshade and small stools in the preparation area.

Sitting on the small stool, Zhang Mo couldn't help but reminisce about the generous treatment he received at Shrek Academy.

"This is so torturous!"

Instead of sticking to the tradition of having Shrek Academy's team take the stage for a thrilling opening match, the first game was instead played by Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

They only sent Meng Hongchen, and Meng Hongchen lived up to expectations, easily defeating the opposing team by using the potent poison in her martial soul, and even refusing to cure them, forcing them to abandon the team competition.

And so, in the capital of the Sun Moon Empire, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy presented a perfect opening match for the people of the Sun Moon Empire who came to watch the game.

Zhang Mo habitually rubbed his chin, but his attention was completely off the game.

For Zhang Mo, the result of this competition is not important at all; what matters is the intelligence.

His gaze fell on the orange on the high platform. Perhaps the orange herself did not notice that her gaze kept drifting towards Huo Yuhao.

Zhang Mo's lips curled up, a playful glint in his eyes as he looked at Huo Yuhao, who was intently watching the match with his spiritual eyes.

Would you call this a honey trap?

Today's schedule was perhaps a bit lucky, as there were no Tang Sect matches. However, Bei Bei and Huo Yuhao still insisted on going to the competition venue to watch other teams' matches and gather information.

Clearly, their focus is still on the game.

Zhang Mo wasn't interested and couldn't stand the sweltering heat, so he simply returned to the hotel to rest and cultivate.

However, what Zhang Mo didn't know was that as he left the competition venue, a person whose figure was covered by a cloak revealed a very fanatical and greedy look next to Xu Tianran.

evening.

The fifth floor of Mingyue Hotel.

This floor is a bar that Mingyue Hotel has designated for use. It will be closed during the World Championship and will only be open to the participants.

Perhaps because some teams displayed impressive strength on the first day of the competition, putting considerable pressure on other teams, the bar wasn't very crowded.

Huo Yuhao was in a relaxed state of mind, enjoying fine wine at a bar with Wang Dong'er, Bei Bei, Xiao Xiao, and He Caitou.

To avoid unnecessary trouble, Wang Dong'er disguised herself as a man after entering Mingdu, and temporarily reverted to her name, Wang Dong.

"Although there were no students from the Star Luo Empire in this competition, the number of opponents did not decrease. On the contrary, some sects showed remarkable combat strength," Bei Bei said, swirling her wine glass.

"Not necessarily, Senior Brother." Huo Yuhao frowned, mimicking Zhang Mo's stroking of his chin. "I sensed some familiar auras in some sect teams, perhaps—"

Bei Bei quickly touched Huo Yuhao's body. Huo Yuhao immediately realized that he was in the Mingyue Hotel of the Sun Moon Empire. Who could say for sure if there were any listening devices from the Sun Moon Empire?

At that moment, the bar welcomed several uninvited guests.

Several people clad in armor made of soul-guided devices entered the bar. Judging from their attire and solemn expressions, they were likely soldiers of the Sun Moon Empire. They immediately approached the bartender, whispered a few words in his ear, and then the bartender hurriedly went to...

They went to the back room of the bar.

Then they began to walk towards Huo Yuhao and his group. Only then did Huo Yuhao see that, under their cover, there was a person in the middle who was wearing a cloak and whose figure and face could not be seen.
