Douluo: Dragon King's Tai Chi Mystery

Within the Soul Guidance Screen, Zhao Xuanzhen and Qian Gu Zhangting left the virtual battle space. Leng Yaozhu's crimson phoenix eyes gazed at Qian Gu Dongfeng in the main seat, her tone icy cold, her mature and beautiful face suppressing a raging fire.

The Soul-Capturing Token is arguably one of the most vicious artifacts in the world. The curse of Medusa, the goddess of evil, can even petrify the soul. Qian Gu Dongfeng gave it to Qian Gu Zhangting, clearly intending to ensure that Zhao Xuanzhen would die without a burial place!

All eyes were focused on Qian Gu Dongfeng, whose face instantly turned extremely ugly.

Despite using the Medusa artifact while treading the red line, Qian Gu Zhangting was still utterly defeated. The Soul-Seizing Token was also destroyed by the Radiant Dragon Spear. Moreover, seeing Qian Gu Zhangting's final frenzied state, Qian Gu Dongfeng had a vague sense of foreboding.

However, Qian Gu Dongfeng didn't have time to ponder how Zhao Xuanzhen could possess that purple-gold spear. At the same time, he could only secretly pray that Qian Gu Zhangting would return to normal after he exited the virtual space.

Faced with Leng Yaozhu's furious questioning, Qian Gu Dongfeng now needed to give the high-ranking members of the Spirit Pagoda a reasonable explanation, and said in a deep voice:

"External objects are part of a Soul Master's own strength. The Spirit Transmission Master assessment does not prohibit the use of divine artifacts. Zhang Ting did not violate any rules. This is a fair, just and open competition for Spirit Transmission Masters."

"Since that's the case, the Tower Master of the Ancient Tower has acknowledged Xuanzhen's position as the Spirit Transmission Envoy and will bestow upon him corresponding rights. Any unexpected events after the Battle of Qiangu Zhangting are his own fault, right?"

To the surprise of all the councilors, Tianfeng Douluo, who was always protective of his own, did not continue to be aggressive. Instead, he calmly fought for Zhao Xuanzhen's interests and, standing on the moral high ground, made Qian Gu Dongfeng compromise.

Qian Gu Dongfeng understood Leng Yaozhu's unspoken meaning and knew that the matter of the Soul-Seizing Token would not be easily resolved without giving up some benefits. However, Zhao Xuanzhen was clearly unharmed, and Qian Gu Zhangting was the one who suffered more. As a result, the Qian Gu family had to cede territory and pay reparations.

Furious and frustrated, Qian Gu Dongfeng had no choice but to nod and say, "Tianfeng is right. Zhangting doesn't need anyone else to take responsibility; he should bear the consequences of his failure himself. I will urge him to focus on his cultivation and choose a day for the second Spirit Transmission Envoy assessment."

Immediately, I will publicly announce to the Sun and Moon Federation that Zhao Xuanzhen has been ranked as one of the four Great Spirit Transmission Envoys, becoming the youngest Spirit Transmission Envoy in the history of the Spirit Transmission Tower.

“Xuanzhen is the face of the Spirit Transmission Tower and the first in line to inherit the position of Tower Master. He should be treated exceptionally well. We hope that the Ancient Tower Master will allow the three branches of the Spirit Transmission Tower in Tiandou City, Xingluo City, and Lingdou City to be handed over to Xuanzhen and his direct subordinates.”

Leng Yaozhu forces Qian Gu Dongfeng to fulfill the bet and help the three women control the eighteen heavenly pillars.

“That’s natural…” Qian Gu Dong almost gritted his teeth. His past feelings of affection for Leng Yao Zhu had vanished. She had completely changed, like a greedy glutton!

The tower master and deputy tower master decided everything with a few words, and the subsequent vote by the councilors became nothing more than a formality.

After generations of management by the Qian Gu clan, the parliamentary system existed in name only. Qian Gu Dongfeng and Leng Yaozhu reached a consensus, and no foolish member of parliament dared to jump out and oppose it.

If such a valiant individual appears, the choice is simply between hacking him into a bloody mist or chopping him into minced meat.

Zhao Xuanzhen received a "it's all sorted out" emoji from Leng Yaozhu, realizing that everything was going smoothly with his teacher and the spirit messenger had been secured. He then took the high-rise elevator and went straight to the ninety-ninth floor.

"Greetings, Spirit Messenger!"

The moment she stepped onto the ninety-ninth floor, a clear, energetic voice rang out, and a silver-white figure swooped over with a flourish, her two slender arms wrapping around Zhao Xuanzhen's neck—a hug, not a pinch.

"Pah, pah!"

The seven elements formed a rainbow, the fireworks exploded with a crackling sound, and colorful ribbons rained down from the sky. Gu Yue controlled the elemental power, Ye Xinglan and Yuanen Yehui were in charge of the fireworks on either side, and Na'er clung to Zhao Xuanzhen, secretly inhaling his scent like a puppy.

"How was it? Was dealing with Qian Gu Zhangting easy and enjoyable?" Na'er asked with a grin.

"It's as easy as turning your hand over; one slap on the left, one slap on the right."

With the warm, soft body in his arms, a smile appeared on Zhao Xuanzhen's handsome face.

"Alright, Xuanzhen just finished a fierce battle, don't bother him."

With a stern face, Gu Yue dragged Na'er away, threw her on the sofa and suppressed her fiercely. Na'er resisted fiercely, her black and silver colors intertwined endlessly.

Ye Xinglan and Yuan Enyehui watched the Nth battle between black and white, and sighed in unison. The two black and white demons were aloof and proud on the outside, but they seemed to be destined enemies, always trying their best to suppress each other.

After a while of playful fighting, the two Silver Dragon Kings stopped under Zhao Xuanzhen's mediation. Na'er and Gu Yue both had flushed faces, and they tidied their messy long hair with their hands, regaining their dignified and proper appearance.

"By the way, Xuanzhen, the artificial ten-thousand-year soul spirit is nearly ninety percent complete. Aunt Leng's idea is to announce it to the soul master world as soon as you come back. Should we take advantage of your appointment as the Spirit Transmission Envoy and announce it directly?" Gu Yue asked softly.

Defective products are just an excuse to fool Qian Gu Zhang Ting. Developing soul beasts up to the level of Thunder Beasts is enough. The Spirit Pagoda can open up artificial ten-thousand-year soul spirits at any time.

"There's no rush. Right now, the Spirit Pagoda still reveres ancient families, and the Spirit Pagoda Masters are nothing special in the long run. I'd rather wait until I become the Spirit Pagoda Master before announcing the creation of a ten-thousand-year-old soul to the Sun and Moon Federation, as a testament to the new pagoda surpassing the old one."

“Yes, your name will be added to the list of researchers who develop the artificial ten-thousand-year-old soul technology,” Gu Yue suggested.

"No, the glory belongs to you and Senior Shiryu."

Zhao Xuanzhen shook his head and refused. The artificial ten-thousand-year-old soul spirit was a soul guidance technology that was enough to shock the soul master world. He had no intention of taking Gu Yue's achievements for himself.

"Given our relationship, do we really have to be so clear about things? Three years ago on the Star Luo Continent, that night we..."

Gu Yue deliberately omitted the most crucial words, her dark eyes rippled slightly, and her exquisitely beautiful and serene face seemed somewhat wounded, leaving one with endless imagination.

Upon hearing this, Na'er's pupils dilated instantly, her gaze frantically shifting between Gu Yue and Zhao Xuanzhen before finally settling on Yuan En Ye Hui, who was suddenly drenched in sweat.

That's mysterious! You didn't tell me about this when you came back!

I'm sorry, Na'er, I'm a loyal employee and I can't betray my boss!

Having disappointed Na'er, Yuan En Hui lowered her head in shame, but could not see the ground.

"There's one more thing. When are you planning to apply for formal graduation from Shrek Academy? The five of us can go together." Ye Xinglan changed the subject at the right moment.

"It doesn't seem to matter much," Zhao Xuanzhen said casually. "Let's do it tomorrow then."

"Even if we submit the application tomorrow, it probably won't be done immediately," Gu Yue interjected. "The annual Sea God's Fate Blind Date Festival is about to begin, and the graduation assessment will be arranged after the Sea God's Fate Festival ends."

"The Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event..." Zhao Xuanzhen pondered for two and a half seconds before asking the crucial question, "Are you participating?"

Upon hearing this, Na'er said proudly, "Shrek Academy stipulates that adult single students are required to participate in the Sea God's Fate, but we are the noble Spirit Pagoda members, of course we won't... Waaah!"

A fair hand covered Na'er's red lips. Gu Yue looked intently at Zhao Xuanzhen and said, "We are both eighteen years old. The Sea God's Fate is the first and the last time."

I don't want to have any regrets, and I hope that Xuanzhen, you can also participate in the Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event..."

"..."

Zhao Xuanzhen fell silent, feeling that Gu Yue had betrayed him and was deliberately creating a chaotic situation.

Inside the room, Na'er's mouth was tightly covered by Gu Yue. Ye Xinglan and Yuanen Yehui suddenly tensed up, their hearts filled with turmoil. In the Spirit Pagoda, they would only be subordinate to the Black and White Duo for life, but the Sea God's Fate represented an opportunity, a chance to openly express their love!

"Drip-drip-"

The notification sound from the soul communication device broke the atmosphere. Zhao Xuanzhen quickly read it, stood up and said, "My teacher is looking for me. Many councilors of the Spirit Pagoda want to meet with me."

“The Spirit Pagoda councilor is a valuable connection; you should go quickly,” Gu Yue said understandingly, like a virtuous wife and loving mother.

After Zhao Xuanzhen left, Xingye returned to the ninety-eighth floor, leaving only the two Silver Dragon Kings' half-bodies on the ninety-ninth floor of the Spirit Pagoda.

"Gu Yue, what are you doing!"

Na'er shook off the hand covering her mouth and said fiercely.

"Blind date, those two words are hard to understand, did they overload your pig brain?" Gu Yue said indifferently.

"No, why are we going on blind dates? Do we even need to?"

Facing Na'er's full of questions, Gu Yue slowly said, "Na'er, let me ask you, did Xuanzhen say that you are the love of his life?"

I've tried to probe this question countless times, and I'm sure you've tried as well. Without exception, he's always chosen to dodge the question and refuse to give a definite answer.

The rule of the Sea God's Fate is that you can only hold hands with one person. Regardless of your motivation, whether it's you or me, Xuanzhen will inevitably have to make a choice.

"You want to break my humanity at the Sea God's Fate event, and then take the opportunity to devour me," Na'er sneered, revealing Gu Yue's ultimate goal.

His dark eyes were tinged with a magnificent crimson, and Gu Yue raised his chin slightly: "I never deny that I yearn to devour you and transform into a complete Silver Dragon King."

At the same time, I also hope that the most important woman in the heart of the person I acknowledge as my love is me, and I believe that in this respect, you and I are exactly the same.

After years of open and covert struggles, it's better to make a clean break and determine the winner decisively.

Are you scared?

"Don't underestimate the bond between childhood sweethearts!" Na'er clenched her fist with one hand.

"I will definitely win!"

"Then... let's wait and see."

The black and white demons' eyes collided in the void. Na'er relied on her childhood sweetheart relationship and the sincerity and unwavering love between them. Gu Yue firmly believed that true love was a gift from heaven. She and Zhao Xuanzhen had even shared a bed. The silver-haired idiot was just waiting to become a loser!

……

Shrek Academy, Poseidon Island.

The elders of the Sea God Pavilion gathered at the Golden Ancient Tree. Light and Dark Douluo Long Yeyue, preempting Sky-Supporting Douluo Yun Ming, spoke first:

"Zhuoshi, what urgent matter do you have that you suddenly asked Yunming to convene us for an emergency meeting of the Sea God Pavilion?"

Crimson Dragon Douluo Zhuoshi took out a soul-guided communicator, and major media outlets reprinted a message: Witch Douluo Li Mengjie stepped down as Spirit Transmission Envoy, and Zhao Xuanzhen, the number one genius of Douluo Star, succeeded her. At only eighteen years old, he was the youngest Spirit Transmission Envoy in the history of the Spirit Transmission Tower.

"Zhao Xuanzhen is back, and he has been directly appointed as the Spirit Transmission Envoy..."

The elders of the Sea God Pavilion felt a chill run down their spines. The bottom line for the Spirit Transmission Envoy was the Title Douluo level, but Zhao Xuanzhen could never break through to the Title Douluo level in three years. That meant one thing: all the Title Douluos who competed with him were his defeated opponents.

"Everyone, regarding the matter of my proposal to convene a temporary meeting of the Sea God Pavilion, Zhao Xuanzhen stated many times when he was on the Star Luo Continent that he would apply for graduation assessment upon returning to the Douluo Continent."

He's back. How should we assess him?

Zhao Xuanzhen held a special position, and the turbid world dared not make a decision on its own. Instead, it decisively reported to the Sky-Supporting Douluo Yunming, convened a meeting of the Sea God Pavilion, and discussed Zhao Xuanzhen's graduation assessment plan.

“Logically speaking, he is an external student and should be subject to the external graduation assessment,” Zhuoshi said, covering his face.

"Outer courtyard..."

Feng Wuyu, the Fiery Dragon Douluo, was speechless.

Do you mean that the combat power of a Title Douluo is assessed using the same standards as that of a One-Word Battle Armor Master or Soul King?

"Given Zhao Xuanzhen's contributions, since the exchange with the Star Luo Continent, he has been specially approved as an inner court disciple, enjoying all the benefits of an inner court disciple, and his assessment will be conducted according to the inner court standards," Yun Ming declared decisively.

"But how should the inner court assessment be set up..." Saint Spirit Douluo Ya Li said with distress.

“I have a way.” Long Yeyue’s eyes darted around. “As the senior disciple of the inner courtyard, Lan Muzi is the most suitable person to step forward.”

The graduation assessment has no set standards; frankly, it's just a formality. Lan Muzi will face Zhao Xuanzhen one-on-one. Yun Ming, Ya Li, Zhuo Shi, Feng Wuyu, and Cai Yue'er, the five of you will serve as the assessment judges—give this newly appointed Spirit Transmission Envoy plenty of face.

As soon as she finished speaking, the elders of the Sea God Pavilion were stunned. They knew how much Long Yeyue wanted to recruit Zhao Xuanzhen, Na'er, and other geniuses from the Spirit Pagoda into Shrek Academy, yet she let Zhao Xuanzhen leave so easily!

Even with Cai Yue'er on the judging panel, it's still four to one!

"Sister Yue's plan is excellent," Yun Ming said with satisfaction. "Lan Muzi will challenge Zhao Xuanzhen to a duel, and the five of us will serve as judges. The meeting will be held the day after the Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event. Let's part ways amicably and maintain friendly relations in the future."

The Sea God Pavilion meeting ended quickly, and Long Yeyue returned to her residence. After a while, someone gently knocked on her door.

"Sister Yue, you were looking for me."

Cai Yue'er pushed open the door and entered, cautiously looking at Long Yeyue, whose face was gloomy.

“Yun Ming is too soft-hearted. The Spirit Pagoda and Shrek Academy are bound to be mortal enemies. With Zhao Xuanzhen’s cultivation talent, he will be the academy’s number one enemy,” Long Yeyue said bluntly.

"Moon, there's a second part to this plan. I heard that a girl named Gu Yue has signed up for the Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event, and Zhao Xuanzhen will most likely participate as well."

Mu Zi is my disciple. No matter who Zhao Xuanzhen teams up with, I will send Mu Zi to fight him. In this way, Mu Zi will no longer be suitable to be the examiner for the second day.

During the graduation assessment, Zhao Xuanzhen faced an examiner... who was you!

“Me?” Cai Yue’er asked in shock.

"Yes, he took away a lot of resources from Shrek Academy, and he is also an enemy. Yun Ming is indecisive, and I can't just watch Shrek fall into the abyss."

"This is a dragon ball formed from the explosive explosion of light and darkness. I want you to cripple him on the spot." Long Yeyue handed over an item, her face fierce.

“Then the Spirit Pagoda and Leng Yaozhu…” Cai Yue’er hesitated.

"Moon, don't forget, you are an elder of the Sea God Pavilion, and everything you do is for the eternal glory of the academy!"

Long Yeyue suddenly shouted: "I've slapped that old face of Qian Gu Die Ting before. With me protecting you, are you afraid of a mere Leng Yao Zhu?"

"Moon... I will obey Elder Dragon's command!"

Chapter 159 The Bombing Plan of the Eternal East Wind, Dragon Spear Goddess and Elemental Goddess (4K)

Late at night, on the 107th floor of the Spirit Pagoda, in the residence of the Pagoda Master.

"I am a Spirit Messenger, no, I am the Master of the Spirit Messenger Tower, no..."

I am the emperor! I am the emperor!

With his limbs bound, Qian Gu Zhangting's usually handsome face was sometimes dull and foolish, and sometimes twisted and crazy, as he kept muttering some unrealistic crazy words.

An elderly man with white hair stood beside the Ancient Pavilion, his nine soul rings flashing alternately. The illusory image of a giant, verdant tree was almost tangible, and a fresh and pure life force filled the entire Spirit Transmission Tower.

"Old Zhuang, what exactly happened at Zhangting?"

On the other side, the Spirit Pagoda Master, Qian Gu Dongfeng, looked solemn and asked a question.

Since leaving the virtual battlefield, Qian Gu Zhangting had become erratic and his behavior escalated over time, eventually leading him to indiscriminately attack those around him. Qian Gu Dongfeng sensed something was terribly wrong and quickly summoned the top healing-type Soul Master of the Spirit Pagoda to come to his aid.

"Reporting to the Tower Master, I'm afraid I'm powerless to help..."

The giant tree phantom slowly dissipated, and the old man let out a long sigh.

Zhuang Yi, the Sacred Tree Douluo, possesses the Martial Soul Tree of Life. He is a level 95 Super Douluo, one of the Four Spirit Transmission Envoys, and the number one healing-type Soul Master on the continent before the Holy Spirit Douluo Ya Li.
