Douluo: Legend of the Holy Land

Chapter 225 Title War

The Spirit Hall of Gengxin City is only a third-level branch hall. The strongest Black-Clad Bishop Salas is only a level 63 Spirit Emperor. How could he be a match for two Title Douluos, especially one Title Douluo who possesses the world's number one weapon spirit, the Clear Sky Hammer?

The two of them didn't have to do much to slaughter everyone in the Martial Soul Branch Hall, leaving no one alive. As the bishop, Salas was the main target, and he was smashed into a meat pie in his sleep by a hammer.

Overnight, the Spirit Hall of Gengxin City was reduced to ashes, and all thirty-four Spirit Masters, including the Hall Master Bishop Miles, perished.

The entire city of Gengxin was instantly plunged into panic. In the eyes of ordinary people, Miles, who possessed the strength of a Soul Emperor, was already an unattainable existence. Just how terrifying must he be to be able to kill dozens of Soul Masters, including himself, without making a sound?

Because of the sudden emergence of the Nine Star Palace, Gengxin City, as the branch of the Nine Star Palace, was not short of powerful Soul Masters. Miles was stopped several times for his evil deeds and was beaten several times, so he became relatively restrained. Although his reputation was still terrible, unlike in the original story, when he was killed by Tang San, the whole city celebrated his death. The fear of the unknown in the hearts of the people outweighed their disgust for Miles.

Just as the city was gripped by fear and unease, Tang Zhen and Tang Lie, the two elders of the Clear Sky Sect who had destroyed the Spirit Hall's branch, swaggered into the Blacksmith's Guild.

"Fifth Brother, after we destroyed that Martial Soul Branch Hall, the whole city was in chaos. Shops closed and malls shut down. But the Blacksmith Guild is so carefree that they actually opened their doors to do business."

Tang Lie looked at the orderly scene in the blacksmiths' guild hall, where there was not a single problem. The craftsmen and vendors were all working on their works in their workshops in an orderly manner, and he was amazed.

"Although blacksmiths do not have a high status on the mainland, all walks of life cannot do without them. No matter which power it is, they will not easily take action against them without a valid reason. I think that is the source of their confidence."

Tang Zhen looked at the various rare metals displayed in the main hall and his eyes lit up: "But this also saves us a lot of trouble. If the Blacksmith Association were to close its doors because of the Spirit Hall, we would have had to put in a lot of effort to collect the rare metals we need to purchase later."

"Let's go, let's go see the person in charge of the blacksmiths' association first. I'm sure it's still that old bastard Lou Gao."

Tang Zhen did not immediately go forward to buy metal, but instead prepared to meet with the person in charge of the blacksmiths' association first.

Having already wiped out the entire branch of the Spirit Hall in Gengxin City, Tang Zhen naturally wanted to maximize the value of this matter. Although he couldn't actually exterminate the entire Blacksmith Association, he could use this incident to intimidate them, allowing them to purchase the metals they needed at the lowest possible price.

"Halt!"

Tang Zhen and Tang Lie headed straight for the top floor. The first few floors were trading areas for blacksmiths' association products, and the two passed through without hindrance until they were stopped on the last floor.

"The upstairs room is the foundry of the master blacksmiths of the Blacksmiths' Association. No one other than members of the Blacksmiths' Association is allowed to enter!"

"Get out of the way!"

Tang Lie snorted angrily, releasing his powerful aura. He was a titled Douluo, and he wouldn't stand on ceremony with anyone. What rules of the Blacksmith Association could possibly restrain him?

boom!boom!

The two Soul Kings guarding this place were no match for Tang Lie. They were immediately blasted away by the pressure emanating from Tang Lie and crashed into the alloy door made of various metals behind them, producing two loud collision sounds.

"Someone's causing trouble!"

The loud noise instantly alerted the Soul Masters of the Blacksmith Association. Soon, dozens of Soul Masters rushed out from the lower floors or through the metal doors, surrounding Tang Zhen and Tang Lie.

"Gentlemen, what brings you here?"

Leading the group was Si Long, a disciple of the master craftsman Lou Gao. Lou Gao was obsessed with forging, and before the Blacksmith Association joined the Nine Star Palace, Si Long had been handling many of the association's external and internal affairs for him. With his sharp eyes, he could tell at a glance that these two vigorous old men were no ordinary people. He stopped the group of Soul Masters who were about to rush forward, bowed, and asked.

Who are you?

Tang Lie glanced at Si Long and said indifferently, "Where's Lou Gao? Let him come out. You brat, you're not qualified to speak to this old man?"

"presumptuous!"

Beside Si Long were two Soul Saints, Yarugolu and Dadi, sent by Xiao Yu to the Nine Star Palace. The two simultaneously roared, their seven Soul Rings rising rapidly as they glared murderously at Tang Lie and Tang Zhen: "Where did these bastards come from, daring to cause trouble here!"

"Two mere Soul Saints dare to be so insolent before me!"

Tang Lie sneered, and a Clear Sky Hammer, over three meters long and radiating a dense black light, was already in his hand. Nine spirit rings, yellow, purple, black, and black, floated quietly on his Clear Sky Hammer.

"Title Douluo!"

Both Yarugolu and Dadi's pupils constricted sharply, and upon seeing his martial spirit, their expressions changed drastically: "The Clear Sky Hammer! You're from the Clear Sky Sect!"

In the blink of an eye, Tang Lie had already made his move. His sixth martial soul lit up, and the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand suddenly split in two, smashing towards Yalugolu and Dadi at the same time.

"True Spirit Body!"

Facing a titled Douluo, Yalugolu and Dadi had no intention of holding back their strength and unleashed their strongest Martial Soul True Forms.

Boom! Boom!

With two loud bangs, the two Soul Saints, like the two Soul Kings who had blocked their way earlier, were simultaneously sent flying, crashing heavily into the gate behind them. This time, even the metal alloy gate couldn't withstand the impact and collapsed with a roar.

"Overestimating yourself!"

Tang Lie snorted coldly and strode into the doorway.

"Strange, the Blacksmith Association usually has only a handful of Soul Masters, when did they acquire two Soul Saint level experts like these!"

Looking at the fallen Yarugoru and Dadi, Tang Zhen frowned, a sudden thought flashing through his mind: "Could it be that the Blacksmith Association has joined another sect or power, gaining a backer, so even if the Spirit Hall branch was wiped out overnight, they are still fearless!"

"Seventh Brother, watch out!"

Upon realizing this, Tang Zhen felt a sense of foreboding. Two mere Soul Saints were not enough to give the Blacksmith Association such confidence. There must be an even more terrifying existence hidden within, who might be a Title Douluo-level powerhouse just like them.

"roar!"

Just then, a deafening dragon roar rang out from inside the house, followed by a chilling dragon's breath that shot straight toward Tang Lie.

Tang Lie's expression changed, and he swung his hammer to block. The dragon's breath shattered instantly, and Tang Lie staggered back several steps.
