Douluo's Spirit Pearl Divine Sword

"Another troublemaker, and a burst-type fire-attribute soul master at that. Too bad, if you were a Soul Douluo, you could cause me some trouble, but now, a Soul Emperor whose soul power isn't even full, there's no need to rush to your death," Yue Guan mocked.

"Qin Ming, what are you doing here? Go back now! You've already graduated and are no longer one of Shrek Academy's people. Go back to your Heaven Dou Royal Academy!" Flander was extremely anxious. Qin Ming was his most proud disciple, and he didn't want him to sacrifice himself for him.

"Yes, I am no longer a member of Shrek Academy, so I don't need to listen to the Dean anymore, do I?" Qin Ming did not turn around. The Fiery Wolf roared, which was a declaration of war against Chrysanthemum Douluo and his determination to protect his teacher with his life.

This scene touched Chrysanthemum Douluo somewhat. "This touching master-disciple relationship is truly disgusting. Since you want to die together, I will grant your wish. Sixth Soul Skill, Golden Stamens Flowing with Clouds!"

The sixth soul skill, even stronger than the Gathering of Cold Yin, bursts forth with golden light, exceptionally beautiful, but beneath that beauty lies endless killing intent.

"Sixth Soul Skill, Explosive Flames!"

"Fourth Soul Skill, Eagle Claw Blade."

Flander and Qin Ming would not sit idly by and wait for their fate. Even if their opponent was a Title Douluo, they would struggle until the very last moment. Unfortunately, the difference in strength between the two sides was too great.

As soon as the two soul skills collided, Qin Ming and Flander's attacks were nullified, and in the end, both of them were enveloped in golden light.

"Fourth Soul Skill, Flowing Light Immortal Slaying Slash!"

Just then, a giant sword appeared out of nowhere, instantly severing the golden light shimmering with rosy hues and saving the two who were about to die.

In terms of attack power, Tianlin is naturally not as good as a Title Douluo, but as long as he cleverly uses the domineering nature of his Demon Sword, he can cut off the opponent's energy attack directly in the middle.

"Who?" Yue Guan looked up and saw a young man holding a demonic sword atop the mountain. Although he had never seen him before, the configuration of his spirit rings—one yellow, two purple, and two black—made him easily recognizable. "That's Jun Tianlin, a prodigy who surpasses even the Golden Generation of our Spirit Hall."

Tianlin glanced at Qin Ming, who was already quite injured, and looked at Chrysanthemum Douluo with a cold expression, saying, "This Title Douluo, Your Majesty!"

"What brings you here, Sword Master?"

"I dare not presume to offer guidance, but if you continue to harm my teacher Qin, I will kill you right now!" After Tianlin finished speaking, he swung his demonic sword, and a powerful sword aura swept towards Meng Yiran.

This is a move from the Seven Kill Sword Technique called "Eternal Calamity". Under Tianlin's precise control, Meng Yiran was not hit by the sword energy at all, but the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemums surrounding her were all cut down.

After all, they are already members of their own sect. Even if it hasn't been announced to the outside world yet, they can't be bullied by others.

"He actually managed to break through my Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum in an instant. This young man has amazing swordsmanship! Moreover, why do I feel a sense of danger from him? Is it because I've used up too much of my soul power?" Because of Tianlin's killing intent, Yue Guan unconsciously became alert.

That's because Tianlin can actually kill him now. After Yue Guan was severely injured by Dugu Bo, he spent a whole year expelling the poison. Although he expelled about nine-tenths and saved his life, his soul power dropped to level ninety-three. Moreover, because the remaining layer of poison had penetrated deep into his bone marrow, he had to leave some of his soul power to suppress the poison in his body, just like Dugu Bo had done before, and he could never go all out.

This results in his current actual combat strength being only around level 91.

At this level, and after consuming such a massive amount of soul power, Tianlin was confident that if he could summon the Martial God to fight alongside him, he could definitely annihilate Chrysanthemum Pass.

However, this would surely expose the secret of his twin martial souls, and perhaps it wasn't worth it for Qin Ming.

But so what? Not everything has to be based on the word "worth it". Tianlin improved his strength in order to protect the important people. Qin Ming had been with him for eight years and was both a teacher and a friend to him. He would never watch him die without doing anything.

Moreover, Qin Ming was willing to risk his life for his teacher, and Dai Mubai in the original story was willing to give up his divinely bestowed soul ring for Tang San's assessment. Could Tianlin be less determined than them?

If the Spirit Hall insists on killing him, he will simply forcefully break all the seals on his million-year-old spirit rings and spirit bones, risking brain death, to use his extraordinary mental strength to perish together with them.

But doing this would be most unfair to Tianmeng Bingcan, who had placed all her hopes on him.

Seemingly sensing Tianlin's thoughts, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm smiled indifferently, "Haha, Little Tian, ​​don't worry so much. The day I sacrificed myself for you, I was prepared to live and die with you. Besides, I don't trust someone who doesn't even care about their own teacher's life and is hiding their strength to protect themselves. Today, just fight without restraint. Don't think that just because you're a Title Douluo, you can be a god. I'll go crazy with you!"

"Thank you, then let's go, Brother Tianmeng!" Tianlin smiled slightly, his left hand gathering light, and the Holy Spirit Pearl was about to make its first official appearance in the world.

"A mere Soul King dares to speak so arrogantly in front of a Title Douluo!" Although Chrysanthemum Douluo didn't know where the inexplicable danger he felt came from, did he really think he was afraid of Tian Lin, a Soul King? The petals of the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum turned into blades, all pointing at Tian Lin.

Just as the two were facing off, a bold voice suddenly shattered their accumulated momentum.

"Haha, you say this child is spouting nonsense, but what about me, Chrysanthemum Guan? You're really getting worse as you get older, actually bullying the weak and treating such a group of children so cruelly."

Chapter 181 Another Title Douluo Appears

"Who is this voice?" How could Yue Guan not have heard this voice before? It came from a powerful figure whom even he could not defeat in his prime.

A massive blue dragon enveloped in lightning flew out from behind Tianlin. Instead of dealing with Yue Guan first, it used its tail to sweep away the Soul Saint who was fighting Liu Erlong.

“This is a Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, and this dragon transformation has almost reached its entire body. There is only one person in the world who can use dragon transformation to this extent,” Tianlin said.

"Yu Yuanzhen!" Yue Guan called out the name of the newcomer, who was none other than Yu Yuanzhen, the patriarch of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan and the Thunder Douluo.

Yu Yuanzhen deactivated his dragon transformation and returned to his ordinary middle-aged man form.

"Uncle!" Liu Erlong exclaimed in surprise. How could his uncle possibly be here? You must know, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan only has one Title Douluo, him.

Therefore, unless there is a major event, Yu Yuanzhen will not easily leave the family. The last time he left was to attend the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's title conferment ceremony and to propose marriage to Poison Douluo for his grandson.

Even though he was very concerned about Yu Tianheng's final match, no matter how much he wanted to watch his grandson's brilliant performance, he restrained himself from coming out for the sake of his family.

Ning Fengzhi, who was not far away, smiled slightly. This was of course his doing. He had sent Yin Yang to the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan to temporarily replace Yu Yuanzhen in guarding the clan, which gave Yu Yuanzhen this free time to come out and have some fun.

This is a luxurious way of using titles when there are many Douluo. If it were the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School in the original story, they wouldn't have the resources for this.

The letter Ning Fengzhi wrote to him said that they would meet here today, but unexpectedly, as soon as Yu Yuanzhen arrived, he saw the shameless Title Douluo and Soul Douluo of the Spirit Hall bullying the children who had not even graduated.

This was something that Yu Yuanzhen, who was always fiercely opposed to evil and had a strong personality, could not tolerate, so he took action without hesitation.

Yue Guan understood. No wonder he felt a great threat from Tian Lin just now. It turned out that Yu Yuanzhen was not far behind him. He thought to himself, no matter how talented Tian Lin was, he shouldn't be able to threaten him, a titled Douluo.

Chrysanthemum Pass's supposedly perfect explanation completely misunderstood the source of the danger.

When Tianlin saw Yu Yuanzhen arrive, he silently withdrew his left hand, which was originally about to release the Holy Spirit Pearl. With Thunder Douluo here, does Chrysanthemum Pass still have any room to maneuver?

The other Spirit Hall Title Douluos who were fighting above saw Yu Yuanzhen arrive and knew that the situation was hopeless, so they immediately ended their battle and retreated to the side.

Chen Xin and Dugu Bo also stood beside Yu Yuanzhen, following Ning Fengzhi.

The eight powerful figures confronted each other, and Yue Guan's face turned grim. "Ning Fengzhi, Yu Yuanzhen, are you, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, prepared to oppose us to the very end?"

“The three sects have always been closely connected. Yue Guan, don’t you even know this?” Ning Fengzhi’s gentle yet firm voice rang out.

This time, he turned the tables and used the Spirit Hall's attack to make that statement a complete truth.

Although this has always been said, in reality, the three sects not only fight their own battles, but are often in competition with each other. Fortunately, it is a relatively healthy competition, and there is no deep hatred between the three parties.

Ning Fengzhi once said that when he was young, conflicts were everywhere on the continent. Although he and Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo walked through dangers every day, he was never afraid.

However, in the last ten years or so, for some reason, the disputes have suddenly decreased. This should have been a good thing, but Ning Fengzhi, who was full of crisis awareness, always felt that this was more like the calm before the storm. The more stable it was now, the greater the turmoil would be later.

Therefore, the three sects must truly unite. The Clear Sky Sect has already gone into seclusion, so he will use Tang Hao and Tang San to lure them out. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan is living in seclusion in a corner, so he will take this opportunity to forcibly drag them into the fray.

"Hmph, we've been defeated today. Old Ghost, Mad Lion, Sea Turtle, let's go!" A beam of moonlight shot into the sky, signaling the retreat order to the other members of the Spirit Hall.

Upon seeing the light, all the men in black obeyed orders and immediately retreated. Soon, the valley returned to complete tranquility.

With the soul masters severely depleted of their soul power, the task of breaking the boulders to clear a path was taken over by the Royal Knights.

"Xiao Tian, ​​are you alright?" At this moment, Xue Qinghe came to their side. After all, he still had the identity of the Crown Prince. The crisis had not been resolved, and Ning Fengzhi did not allow him to show his face at all, and had the Royal Knights protect him every step of the way.

"Brother Xue, I'm fine. Uncle Ning and the others are here, and even His Majesty Thunder has come to help. Who else could possibly hurt me?" Tianlin said with a smile.

"That's good. Don't be so reckless in the future. I know you're worried about your teacher. Being loyal to your friends is a good thing, but if you let those feelings hold you back, then it will turn into a bad thing. How could you possibly contend with a Title Douluo?" Xue Qinghe breathed a sigh of relief.

Actually, it wasn't just Tianlin who wanted to make a move; she almost couldn't hold back either. After all, that was a Title Douluo. No matter how strong her Xiaotian was, she didn't think he had reached the level to rival a Title Douluo. If they fought, he would surely die.

By then, she feared she might not be able to resist letting her Angelic Martial Soul spread its six wings and unleash an Angelic Holy Sword attack on Chrysanthemum Douluo. After all, Chrysanthemum Douluo belonged to that woman, so she didn't care.

"Hmph!" At this moment, Ning Rongrong, who was originally about to throw herself into Tianlin's arms and act coquettishly, suddenly became jealous and unhappy. She herself didn't quite understand why, even though they were both boys, her sword brother and the crown prince looked more well-matched when they stood together than when they stood together with her.

"Brother Jian is the worst! Rongrong just went through such a dangerous thing and you didn't even come to comfort me. I'm not talking to you anymore." Ning Rongrong pouted and kept muttering to herself.

“That’s perfect, Xiao Tian. Since Rongrong doesn’t want to talk to you right now, why don’t you come to my carriage? Your soul power was severely depleted just now, and the power of Heavenly Snow can help you recover faster.” Xue Qinghe pressed his advantage, seemingly oblivious to Ning Rongrong’s unspoken message, and without giving Tian Lin any room to refuse, he dragged Tian Lin back.

Tianlin found himself completely unable to break free. This was partly due to his own excessive consumption of energy, but more so due to Xue Qinghe herself. With the assistance of Tianxue's power in her cultivation, Tianlin felt that Xue Qinghe at this moment was probably at the level of a seven-ring Soul Saint when she officially appeared in the original work. Moreover, thanks to the special nature of the six-winged angel, her true combat power was almost at the level of a Title Douluo.

When Ning Rongrong saw that her sword-wielding brother had actually followed Xue Qinghe, her aggrieved little face scrunched up. Tianlin was very wronged; he didn't want to follow Xue Qinghe, but he couldn't break free. He couldn't very well let Sword Douluo cut him down with his sword.

It seems I'll have to comfort this little princess properly later.

Chapter 182 Qin Ming Arrives in Wuhun City and Joins the Sect

The Royal Knights shattered all the boulders, allowing the academies to continue their journey.

Although the enemy retreated, they were not faring well either. Some needed to recuperate from their injuries, such as Qin Ming and Flander; others were recovering their soul power, such as Tian Lin and Huang Dou; and still others were sulking, such as Ning Rongrong.

On the contrary, Tang San, the culprit of this incident, is completely unharmed and is currently sitting in Ning Fengzhi and Yu Yuanzhen's carriage, inquiring about the cause and effect of the matter.

Ning Fengzhi certainly couldn't tell him everything. He only told him that this matter was related to his father and the Haotian Sect. He wanted to use the father and son to drag the Haotian Sect, which had been on the run for more than ten years, out of hiding.

With Ning Fengzhi's intelligence, how could he not perceive the ambition of the Spirit Hall, or rather, Bibi Dong? The Spirit Hall was already stronger than the three upper sects combined, and now the four lower sects were all dependent on the Spirit Hall. If they continued as before, they would probably be defeated one by one.

If Tianlin knew what Ning Fengzhi was thinking at this moment, he would definitely give him a thumbs up. In the original story, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan were wiped out in this way. He had foresight, so he had been working hard to strengthen the sect and overcome the calamity, while Ning Fengzhi was just guessing.

The only pity is that Ning Fengzhi could never guess the exact timing of Bibi Dong's actions, and even Tian Lin is not sure now. After all, with his arrival, the sect has become much stronger, and it is hard to guarantee that the Spirit Hall will not start its actions earlier in order to avoid adding variables.

It seems that after the Foresight cooldown is over, I will have to use it again within the sect to determine the opponent's exact attack time.

That evening, the main force finally arrived at Wuhun City. After getting off the carriage, Tianlin clearly felt that Tang San had become much more polite, probably because he still had a good impression of Ning Fengzhi.

However, his thoughts remained unchanged: he still wanted to take over the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School in the future. At worst, he could continue to let Ning Fengzhi be the sect leader of this affiliated sect of the Tang Sect, which would also be a way of repaying the life-saving grace he had received today.

It's a pity that Tianlin didn't use Soul Reading on him. Otherwise, if he knew what he was thinking, he would definitely have used the Demon Sword to kill him. Only Tang San could say that repaying kindness with enmity in such a refreshing and unconventional way.

As the Crown Prince of Tiandou, Xue Qinghe was assigned a different residence than the contestants, so she did not continue to hold Tianlin back. Moreover, Tianlin's soul power had basically recovered, so she could let him leave with peace of mind.

Tianlin didn't plan to continue following Xue Qinghe. After all, this was her home, and since she rarely returned home, she would probably find an opportunity to visit her grandfather.

Back at the Royal Fighting Team, Tianlin helped Qin Ming back to rest. He had been hit by Chrysanthemum Douluo's soul skill earlier that day and was seriously injured.

"Xiao Tian, ​​thank you so much for today. If you hadn't arrived in time, Dean Flander and I would probably be dead by now," Qin Ming said gratefully.

"It's nothing, Teacher Qin. You're willing to risk everything for your teacher, so why can't I?" Tianlin said with a smile.

Looking at Tianlin's still somewhat immature face, Qin Ming was deeply moved. This child had stood in front of a Title Douluo when he was injured, and even told the Title Douluo that he would kill him if he dared to hurt him again. What courage that was!

Thinking of this, Qin Ming suddenly said subconsciously, "Xiao Tian, ​​do you remember when you invited me to join your sect during the title conferment ceremony? Does that invitation still count?"

If Tianlin's act of gifting him the Purple Gold Pill had filled him with gratitude, then Tianlin's selfless rescue today completely shook his original desire to be a free Soul Master.

“Of course, I would welcome you from the bottom of my heart anytime, Teacher Qin, if you are willing to come.” Tianlin was very happy.

Like the previous couple, Oscar, Ma Hongjun, and others, Tianlin had meticulously plotted their entry into the sect. But today, he hadn't considered this at all; he simply wanted to protect his friends and teacher. Unexpectedly, things turned out unexpectedly well.

This is what they mean by treating others with sincerity, and receiving sincerity in return.

After telling Qin Ming to get some rest, Tian Lin walked out of the room, while the rest of the Royal Fighting Team stood at the door with some concern.

Tianlin smiled and comforted them, "Don't worry, Teacher Qin will be fine. Although he was injured, he will recover completely after taking my pills and recuperating for a period of time. However, he probably won't be able to come and direct our tactics in the first few matches of the finals. We'll have to rely on ourselves."

Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Osro said nonchalantly, "So what? With our strength, even without any tactics, we can crush the other academies."

“That’s right. With Xiao Tian here, even if we encounter the Spirit Hall Academy, they won’t be able to beat us.” Dugu Yan patted Tian Lin on the shoulder. Although she always said she would protect her younger brother, she knew that Tian Lin’s true strength was actually greater than all the other members of the Royal Fighting Team combined.

“Yanzi, it’s not just Xiaotian, there’s me too. I’m the captain of the Royal Battle team, and I’m also your fiancé. Can’t you have a little more faith in me?” Yu Tianheng said, his voice brimming with jealousy.

Dugu Yan glanced at him sideways, "Let's talk about it when you become a Soul King. You're still calling yourself Xiaotian. Gu Ran has already surpassed you."
