Douluo Continent: Starting with a Heavenly Fire Judgment

Chapter 121 Star Luo City

After calming Tianmeng Ice Silkworm down, Ji Lin withdrew from the Sea of ​​Spirit.

Ji Lin was led back by Elder Xuan. He looked back at the cave that had turned into a lava cavern and was amazed by the power of the innate talent skill of Heavenly Fire Judgment. You have to know that he was just a Soul Master, and he had used Heaven and Earth Supreme once before, with less than half of his soul power. Under such circumstances, Heavenly Fire had such power. He was a little suspicious that when he broke through to Title Douluo or Demigod, this attack could kill a god.

Heavenly Fire Unleashed is an innate skill of Heavenly Fire Judgment, not a soul skill. Rather, it is similar to a self-created soul skill, like Elder Mu's Reign Over the World.

However, it is far stronger than "Ruling the World," which is a fusion of mental power and physical attack.

The Heavenly Fire Unleashed is a fusion of ultimate fire, destructive power, and Ji Lin's spiritual and soul power; its power is far more than simply the sum of its parts.

The stronger Ji Lin becomes, the more powerful the Heavenly Fire will be when it is unleashed. Therefore, Ji Lin suspects that he may be able to kill a god in his mortal form in the future.

The only drawback is that unleashing Heavenly Fire will destroy the user as well. It's normal for such powerful and excessive force to have side effects. However, Ji Lin has the Snow Empress, and later the Ice Empress. With the cooperation of the two, he can use Heavenly Fire as a basic attack.

When that day comes, it will be the day he reigns supreme.

With Ji Lin in tow, Elder Xuan quickly returned to the cave where the Death Hand bandits were located. The stench of blood in the cave grew even stronger.

Ma Xiaotao and the others gathered together, and Yao Haoxuan and Gongyang Mo, who had been in a coma, also woke up.

Upon seeing Ji Lin return, they hurriedly tried to get up to thank him, clearly having heard that Ji Lin had saved them after waking up.

Ji Lin quickly stepped forward to stop them, "Seniors, there's no need for this. It's what I should do. You're all badly injured, so don't move around."

Gongyang Mo said earnestly, "If it weren't for the invincible shield that you gave us and your timely rescue, Yao Haoxuan and I probably wouldn't have survived. We have no way to repay your life-saving grace. I will remember this kindness. If you need anything in the future, you can come to me anytime. I will never refuse."

"Yes, me too," Yao Haoxuan nodded repeatedly from the side.

"Count me in," Xixi said succinctly.

Chen Zifeng and Dai Yueheng also stated that Ji Lin could contact them anytime if she needed help in the future, and they would never refuse.

Ling Luochen said she could repay him with her body, but after looking at Wang Qiu'er and Ma Xiaotao, she still didn't say it.

Needless to say, Ma Xiaotao owed Ji Lin even more.

Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng are tough and only suffered minor external injuries. The real problem is that they have been poisoned. Although they can suppress it with their soul power, it will take time.

Chen Zifeng and Xixi were also injured by the explosion. They were not as resilient as the two before them, and their injuries were more severe and the poisoning was deeper. They needed to return to the academy for treatment, not to mention the two support characters.

In other words, out of the seven students in the inner academy, only three can participate in this continent-wide advanced soul master academy battle competition.

Wang Yan said in a heavy tone, "In order to avoid any hidden injuries, the four of them must go back and receive the highest level of treatment."

Elder Xuan looked ashamed. If Ji Lin hadn't prepared the invincible shield in advance and saved everyone in time, he would have repeated the same mistake.

He sighed, his expression hardening again, and said, "Wang Yan, you take Ma Xiaotao and the reserve team to Xingluo City to participate in the competition. I'll take Gongyang Mo, Chen Zifeng, Xixi, and Yao Haoxuan back to the academy for treatment. There's no time to lose, let's act immediately."

As he spoke, Elder Xuan waved his hand, and a white soul force enveloped Xi Xi and the other three, carrying them to float in the air.

Elder Xuan took a deep breath, looked at the seven people from the outer courtyard, and said in a deep voice, "This sudden upheaval is entirely my responsibility. There's probably no time to send new members from the academy to participate in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament. You are the only ones who can step up first. Victory and honor belong to you. Defeat and shame belong to me alone."

After saying that, Elder Xuan led the four of them, including Xixi, out of the cave and disappeared.

Beibei, Xu Sanshi, and the others looked at each other in surprise. They had thought they were just there to make up the numbers, but they had become the main force, and the pressure suddenly became heavy.

Wang Yan clapped his hands and said to the reserve team, "Although we've lost four regular members, you're not weak, especially Ji Lin and Wang Qiu'er. They're no weaker than the inner court disciples, and perhaps even stronger. Plus, you have a Martial Soul Fusion Skill, which is your trump card. Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, and Jiang Nannan are also excellent. You're all Soul Masters, two Soul Emperors, one Soul King, and four Soul Masters—a combination that's incredibly powerful in any academy. Don't be afraid at all; we will win."

Wang Yan was full of confidence. Ji Lin and Wang Qiu'er were both too strong, and could be regarded as Soul Kings. Ji Lin could even be used as a Soul Emperor. If the two of them used their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, no one would be able to defeat them. Moreover, Ji Lin and Ling Luochen also had a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

Although he had never witnessed Ji Lin and Ling Luochen's Martial Soul Fusion Skill, he had seen Ji Lin and Wang Qiu'er's Ice Azure Dragon. That kind of power would make even a Soul Saint kneel down.

Wang Yan is now in a state of absolute power, with Ji Lin at his command.

The original royal flush plus four twos becomes a royal flush plus four aces, but it's still a sure win.

Full of confidence, Wang Yan led Ji Lin and the others towards Xingluo City.

He believed that Shrek Academy would be the ultimate winner of this continent-wide advanced soul master academy battle tournament.

Star City.

As the capital of the Star Luo Empire, Star Luo City is undoubtedly the empire's largest city and its political, cultural, and economic center. It is known as the "Imperial Capital That Will Never Fall."

The core of the entire city is located in the center of Xingluo City, which is the inner city. After many renovations, its scale has become larger and larger, and the architecture is extremely magnificent.

The permanent population of Xingluo City exceeds 8 million, and including outsiders, the maximum population can reach 20 million.

This megacity, however, has recently become quite crowded. The number of tourists has surged in just half a month. Almost all hotels are fully booked, forcing the authorities to requisition some civilian residences and open up some official residences as temporary accommodations for tourists. The number of soldiers maintaining order within the city has also increased significantly.

The reason for such a big change is simple: the grand event held once every five years, the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament, is about to be held in Star Luo City.

It's important to understand that the continent has four major empires, and the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament is held in rotation in the capitals of each nation. Therefore, Star Luo City would have to wait a full twenty years to participate. How could such a grand event not attract the people of the Star Luo Empire to come and watch?

The tournament was held in Xingluo Square in front of the imperial city of Xingluo City. Xingluo Square was extremely large and could accommodate the largest number of spectators. It was said that 30,000 soldiers had been mobilized from the city just to maintain order for this tournament. Ten thousand of them were responsible for guarding Xingluo Square.
