Douluo Continent: Starting with a Tom Cat

"Roar!"

The third soul skill, Thunderous Fury, was suddenly activated, greatly increasing the user's attributes.

Yu Tianheng roared, and the purple lightning surged violently, transforming into a ball of lightning that approached Shen An. His figure and momentum were like a humanoid tyrannosaurus charging towards Shen An with unparalleled force.

Following the third spirit ring, the first spirit ring shone brightly once more, and a dazzling blue lightning bolt condensed into a dragon claw that reached out towards Shen An. First spirit skill: Thunder Dragon Claw!

Shen An's eyes had now transformed into a vast, boundless azure, his third soul skill, Azure Sword Eyes!

Yu Tianheng, who was as fast as lightning, was nothing special in Shen An's eyes. The Thunder Dragon Claw in the air could be clearly grasped, and it was easy to dodge.

But why should I dodge? Shen An smiled. If I'm going to win, then let me win in the most domineering way.

Driven by the wind and lightning.

Shen An swung his right arm, wielding the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass, and slashed at it.

"Clang!"

The brilliance of this sword strike seemed to shatter space itself; the sword light, like a beautiful azure crescent moon, clashed with the dragon claw in the air.

"Oh!"

The sword energy clashed with the dragon claw, shattering it with unparalleled force. Blue arcs of electricity crackled and pulsed, before the sword energy continued its relentless slash towards Yu Tianheng.

Yu Tianheng was slashed back more than ten meters by the sword energy, and a deep sword wound appeared on his blue dragon arm.

'What an overbearing martial spirit! What unreasonable sword energy!'

He stared at Shen An in horror; with just one sword strike, he knew he was no match for him.

"What are you all standing there for? This is a tough one, let's all attack!" Yu Tianheng said to his teammates behind him, his face flushed.

The members of the Royal Fighting Team didn't have time to complain about how Yu Tianheng had prevented them from interfering.

Shen An's sword strike tore open the arm of the top-tier beast martial soul, which had transformed into a dragon, leaving it tattered and bleeding. If he hadn't been careful, he might have been caught off guard and lost his life today.

"Shen An, do you need our help?" Zhu Zhuqing asked worriedly.

Shen An turned around and looked back. His azure eyes were as indifferent, deep, and captivating as the high heavens above.

Zhu Zhuqing's heart suddenly pounded, as if she were sinking into it.

"No need, I think I'm a bit too strong. Rongrong doesn't need to help. Let me test my limits!"

The members of the Mad Rhino Clan standing to the side looked at Shen An with awe. Mad Rhino, having abandoned his previous arrogance, spoke cautiously:

"Shen An, are you sure you don't need our help? If we join the battle, with your strength, we can definitely win."

"No need, I am enough on my own," Shen An said indifferently.

Just kidding, how could I let you share such a moment of glory with me?

"Damn it, how dare he act like this in front of the seven of us? Does he really think he's invincible?"

"I am not good at speaking," said Oslo, the Ghost Leopard Soul Master.

At this moment, Dugu Yan, whose legs had transformed into snake tails, said coldly, "Let's all attack together and teach him a lesson. Lingling is ready to treat him at any time, and the Shi brothers will stand in front."

Shen An possessed exceptional hearing, coupled with the extraordinary perception granted by his Azure Sword Eyes, allowing him to hear every word he uttered.

"That suits me perfectly. Let's not waste any more time and attack together."

Three spirit rings merged into the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass, and two Nine-Leaf Phantom Swords separated out, displaying their brilliance under the control of the Distractor.

Countless cyan sword energies danced wildly like thunder.

If I cannot win within ten breaths, I will admit defeat.

"Arrogant!" the members of the Royal Fighting Clan shouted in unison.

Shen An confronted the two defensive Soul Masters, the Shi brothers, head-on. The rock-solid tortoise shell was as fragile as paper in front of Shen An.

Shen An neither dodged nor avoided the attack, but instead launched a head-on assault. The Shi brothers' tortoise shells shattered, and they were both sent flying.

Two flying swords, one aimed straight at Ye Lingling, and the other attacked the two agility-type soul masters of the Royal Battle. The agility-type soul masters, whose speed was beyond that of their peers, were unable to break free at all.

At this moment, Yu Tianheng was far behind, making it even more difficult for Dugu Yan to offer assistance.

The Shi brothers, Ye Lingling is out!

Without hesitation, Dugu Yan unleashed a poisonous mist. Three longswords converged before Shen An, their sword energies erupting simultaneously. The sword wind howled violently, causing the poisonous mist to recede, and the Huang Dou members reaped the bitter fruits of their actions.

Finally, apart from Yu Tianheng, the two agility-type Soul Masters and Dugu Yan each had a sword hanging around their necks.

Shen An achieved victory with an unparalleled advantage.

In the VIP room, Yu Xiaogang slumped weakly into a chair, while Dai Mubai's eyes were blank. He had truly won.

Tang San's eyes were icy cold. He closed them, then opened them again, staring intently at Shen An.

Tang San felt a chill run down his spine: 'I need to forge top-tier Tang Clan hidden weapons as soon as possible; I'd be no match for him in a head-on confrontation.'

'Shen An, you have a way to die; your mistake was being too strong!'

Shen An glanced at his own reputation score, his originally blue eyes turning black and white, filled with secret delight.

"It's a hit! The promotion for the Grand Arena is really effective. My popularity has increased by more than 10,000. After a while, I can open the mystery character's blind box."

Chapter 99 Pretending to be Experienced, I Miss You So Much (Seeking First Subscription!)

"Haha, Brother Shen, you truly are a prodigy! I owe you a favor."

Pang Tao walked in with a smile on his face, and the reputation of the Soto Arena was saved.

Next to Pang Tao was Xue Qinghe, a person Shen An never expected.

Xue Qinghe looked at Shen An with a half-smile: "Isn't this Brother Jerry? Why are you calling him Shen An?"

Shen An was slightly embarrassed. He hadn't expected that this person would also come to watch the Soul Battle Arena. The publicity for this Great Soul Battle Arena was too effective. Even Xue Qinghe, an out-of-towner, had heard it.

"I'm sorry, Brother Xue. One should be careful when traveling. Please forgive me." Shen An clasped his hands in apology.

"Brother Qinghe, what brings you here?" Ning Rongrong said with a look of surprise.

Given Ning Fengzhi's level of support for Xue Qinghe, she was naturally familiar with it.

Xue Qinghe said, "Soto City is the granary of the Barak Kingdom. I must take a look. I also want to completely unify the country and restore the former glory of Tiandou."

"Let's not talk about that. But Rongrong, what are you doing in Soto City?"

Xue Qinghe looked silently into Ning Rongrong's eyes. If it was indeed the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School manipulating things behind the scenes with the intention of unifying the Barak Kingdom, then she could only secretly take drastic measures.

If Ning Rongrong were to die in Soto City for no apparent reason, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would certainly not cooperate with the Barak Kingdom.

"I ran away secretly and was kicked out of an academy here, but I'll be going to study at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy soon."

Xue Qinghe was taken aback. What she said made sense, as she knew Ning Rongrong's witch-like nature.

Xue Qinghe's gaze softened, like that of a friendly older brother: "You're just so mischievous."

"However, the fact that an academy actually kicked you out, Rongrong, shows how ungrateful they are."

"Brother Shen An, are you also going to the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy?" Xue Qinghe asked.

"Of course, not only Shen An, but also Zhu Zhuqing, these are all good friends of mine. Oh, and Tom, he's a magical cat."

When Xue Qinghe saw Tom behind her, her pupils contracted and she couldn't help but take a step back. This cat was too eerie; she absolutely couldn't let it touch her.

"Oh, that's good. The Heavenly Dou Royal Academy will at least not bury Brother Shen's talent." Xue Qinghe's words were full of admiration for Shen An.

She had always thought Shen An was extraordinary, and seeing Shen An's one yellow and two purple spirit rings that broke the limit, as well as his demeanor of fighting seven opponents alone, Xue Qinghe admired him even more.

Although Shen An's soul power is still shallow, with such talent, he will definitely become a Title Douluo in the future, and the strongest among Title Douluos.

In the Douluo Continent, where talent determines everything, Xue Qinghe had no doubt about his judgment.

"If you go to Tiandou, Brother Shen An, you can come to the royal family to see me more often. This token allows you to freely enter and leave my residence. Please accept it, Brother Shen An."

Xue Qinghe handed a delicate token to Shen An.

He wasn't in a hurry to recruit a genius like Shen An. Geniuses are always arrogant, so the best approach was to slowly and gently show him kindness, like boiling a frog in lukewarm water.

Little did Shen An know that he was extremely puzzled, thinking, "Why hasn't His Highness the Crown Prince recruited me yet? He can't expect me to ask him personally, can he?"

-

Xue Qinghe left, and after saying goodbye to Pang Tao, Shen An also returned with the two women and the cat. Ye Zi stayed at the teahouse, studying how to make milk tea.

Shen An has already told Ye Zi that they will be going to Tian Dou City to study soon, and the teahouse will be left to Ye Zi to take care of.

After returning home, Shen An reviewed his gains from this trip. First, he gained a preliminary understanding of his own combat strength, realizing he was invincible among those of the same level.

Fighting a Soul Master shouldn't be a problem, but I don't know what level a Soul King is at.

"That's not enough. Even if you can easily defeat a bunch of weaklings, you're still a weakling. What I want is to fight those two soul beasts in the Star Dou Forest."

Shen An's eyes were icy cold; the death threat posed by the Titan Ape was something he kept in mind at all times.

Even if he knew that Xiao Wu was a 100,000-year-old soul beast, once it was exposed, powerful figures from all over the continent would naturally hunt her down, thus achieving the effect of revenge.

But he wanted to rely on his own strength to defeat them head-on and return the fear they had instilled in him.

He has a system at his disposal, so it's really frustrating that he still has to rely on others to get revenge.

Set yourself a small goal: kill the Titan Ape within five years.

Shen An glanced at his reputation score, which was 87903. At this point, less than two hours had passed since the end of the Soul Battle.

All the fame that Huangdou Academy had accumulated over this period of time had benefited Shen An.

'Wait a little longer. Once the teahouse is arranged, I'll head to Tiandou City. As the capital of the Tiandou Empire, it should bring me many times more fame than Soto City,' Shen An thought eagerly.

......

Inside the Spirit Hall, Qian Renxue revealed her true face, but it was concealed by holy light. Looking at the information in her hand about Ning Rongrong's actions after arriving in Soto City, she felt slightly relieved.

"It seems I was overthinking it. It was just the little witch being playful. But this Yu Xiaogang is interesting. Is he the man that woman couldn't forget back then?"

"Feld, you don't need to worry about Shen An and Ning Rongrong, I have my own arrangements. But you need to give Shrek Academy special attention." Qian Renxue emphasized the word "special attention."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Qian Renxue's eyes seemed to encompass everything. "Once you go to Tiandou City, it'll be difficult for you not to become one of my people, Shen An."

-

For the next ten days or so, Shen An tried his best to go to the Soul Arena to gain reputation, engaging in solo, duo, and team battles.

The fame value steadily increased, finally breaking through the twenty-nine mark.

"We'll set off for Tiandou City in three days," Shen An said excitedly to Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing.

Zhu Zhuqing hesitated for a moment, then looked at Tom and said, "But, is Tom really alright in his current condition?"

Shen An looked at Tom, who was lying there dejectedly, occasionally taking a sip of milk wine, his face full of melancholy.

Shen An was also helpless, not knowing what had gotten into Tom. He hadn't been talking to anyone for the past few days, and sometimes he would even stare blankly at the windmill and mouse toy outside.

These past few days, Tom has been drinking heavily, and Shen An even buys his meals from outside and feeds them to him.

Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong were worried for a long time, but nothing they did could coax her; all the delicious food and fun things they tried were ineffective.

Shen An shook his head and asked Tom what was wrong, but Tom wouldn't say. Maybe every cat has a few days when it's particularly depressed.

Shen Anxin hoped that going to Tiandou would bring Tom some new and interesting things that would cheer him up.

Finally, Shen An kept his eyes glued to the fame score, watching it fluctuate.

Finally, at that moment, the 300,000-mile milestone was reached!

"System, summon the mysterious figure for me," Shen An silently commanded.

The system's virtual panel transformed, eventually turning into a chubby, round figure with bells.

'Could it be it?' Shen An was shocked. If it really was, then they would be able to walk sideways with impunity.

I choose you, Doraemon!

Before Shen An could even feel happy, his originally chubby and round figure suddenly shrank, shrinking and shrinking again.

A flash of white light appeared inside the room, and a small brown figure fell to the ground.

The little thing immediately spoke in a thick Sichuan dialect: "Where does this smell of alcohol come from? It's really awful."

Shen An stared blankly at the small figure, feeling his eyelids tremble. How could it be it? This family would never have peace again.
