Douluo Continent: Starting with a Tom Cat

"What is it?" Although he was the Pope, his voice was gentle and pleasant, making people feel as if they were bathed in a spring breeze.

"Your Holiness, you instructed me to keep an eye on Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang. According to our intelligence, he appeared to have had a conflict with Poison Douluo at the Heaven Dou Academy yesterday."

Bibi Dong's eyes turned cold as she asked urgently, "Is he alright?"

"No, it's just that his personal disciple was injured by Dugu Bo and, after leaving the mountain, he supposedly went to an academy called Lanba."

Bibi Dong's face darkened completely, and her hand gripping the scepter turned white from the force. Was she going to find that woman?

"I don't like the name Blue Tyrant. Go, secretly find someone to target them!"

"You may leave now. Report back to me if there is any further movement."

"Yes, Your Holiness the Pope."

'Yu Xiaogang, Yu Xiaogang, how dare you go after that woman? I've tolerated her all this time, but don't blame me for being ruthless.'

The next day, Sunset Forest.

Although there are many soul beasts in Sunset Forest, most of them have a cultivation level of thousands to tens of thousands of years.

With Gu Rong, a level 95 Super Douluo, by her side, Ning Rongrong quickly found a suitable soul beast.

At this moment, Ning Rongrong was absorbing a spirit ring, with Bone Douluo guarding her and Shen An accompanying her.

As for Tom and Jerry, these two rivals couldn't stay still and had already hopped and skipped off to play far away.

Tang San and his companions were also searching for a suitable soul beast for Ma Hongjun.

Xiao Wu's eyes dimmed slightly: "Brother, do you think Soul Masters have to hunt Soul Beasts?"

Tang San patted Xiao Wu's head and said, "If a Soul Master wants to become stronger, they must hunt Soul Beasts, and I am no exception."

"After all, only when I become stronger can I better protect you."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu's initial feelings of being a saint dissipated considerably, replaced by a strong sense of dependence and love for Tang San.

Flander, who was walking in the middle, keenly noticed the movement in the bushes beside him and immediately gestured for everyone to be careful: "Don't go yet, there's something going on."

The group stopped, and sure enough, a cat's head darted out of the bushes, followed by a small brown mouse peeking out.

Yu Xiaogang's mind was in turmoil. It was those two, the cat and the mouse beside Shen An. So Shen An had come too.

Yu Xiaogang knew that after the incident with Tian Dou, he would probably have completely offended this person.

Shen An's talent was too terrifying, and he was ultimately a threat. This made Yu Xiaogang very wary. More importantly, Shen An might hinder Tang San from becoming the strongest soul master in the entire continent in the future.

'If Shen An is alone, then I will have Flander and Erlong kill him.' Yu Xiaogang's killing intent rose in his heart.

Just as Yu Xiaogang was confirming the feasibility of the matter, Dai Mubai stepped forward first. He always stood at the forefront of opposing Shen An, including those close to Shen An.

With the added bonus of the hatred of having his wife stolen, coupled with being defeated by Shen An multiple times, he could be said to hate Shen An to the bone.

However, he would never dare to target Shen An again; the difference in strength was obvious. But this cat and mouse were different; this one looked easy to bully. Dai Mubai's evil eyes flashed with a fierce light.

"What do you think it is? You're just two beasts. You're unlucky to have run into me."

"This isn't a good idea. We're here to hunt soul beasts; there's no need to cause trouble." It was Liu Erlong who spoke, and Dai Mubai's appearance made her frown instinctively.

Yu Xiaogang waved his hand and said, "It's alright. Mu Bai has grievances in his heart. Letting him vent them will help his future development."

Tang San watched with a hint of excitement, while Xiao Wu, who was always "kind" to soul beasts and small animals, remained silent, instead looking at him with a strange gaze.

Tom and Jerry's previously adorable, blank expressions instantly turned into anger. This person is so awful, actually calling them animals.

Dai Mubai's ferocity overflowed, and he instantly transformed into a white tiger, charging directly at Tom and Jerry. His large tiger claws reached out to grab them, intending to crush them both to death and vent his hatred.

But Tom, who is usually timid, changed his usual behavior and stood at a distance without hiding or avoiding.

Tom isn't exactly a forgiving cat; this person dared to insult him, so he was determined to fight back.

Dai Mubai's ferocity intensified; he was utterly oblivious to his own mortality.

"Bang!" "Smack!"

"Bang! Smash!"

The sounds of heavy objects being struck and slaps echoed continuously.

The Shrek Academy members standing nearby were stunned. When Dai Mubai made his move, they also thought that the ordinary cat and mouse were doomed.

Unexpectedly, Jerry, who was standing on Tom's head, took out a small wooden hammer, which then grew larger and larger at a visible speed, and smashed it hard on Dai Mubai's head.

Immediately afterwards, Dai Mubai seemed to be dizzy, and his movements suddenly stopped.

This was unimaginable for the Shrek group; it was too bizarre. How could there be an attack that left someone standing still, seemingly lost and being beaten?

Tom, without any hesitation, slapped him across the face with a large scoop, leaving a deep red cat claw mark.

Jerry knocked on the head, Tom slapped him, and so on. It took the Shrek group a while to realize that they had to save Dai Mubai quickly, or he might get a concussion.

Tang San reacted faster than anyone else, and without hesitation, he threw two poisoned throwing knives at Tom Jerry's head.

The two little ones reacted differently; Tom tucked his head inside his body, while Jerry leaped three feet into the air.

Then, adhering to the principle that a wise man doesn't fight a losing battle, they took off running at a speed that even amazed Flander, the agility-based Soul Saint.

The two figures were still in the same spot one second, and the next second they turned into two small black dots in the distance.

The series of fluid movements were so fast that no one could react in time.

Before the Shrek group could give chase, the two of them suddenly ran back, leaving two deep ruts in the ground as Tom braked suddenly.

Tom and Jerry only realized after running far away that Tang San had just shot them with throwing knives, so they turned back without hesitation to take revenge on the spot.

Tang San was startled. What the hell? A blue cat face was pressed against his face, followed by a white cat paw flying towards his cheek.

"Crack! Crack!"

Even though it was only two slaps, Tang San's face visibly swelled up.

Chapter 116 So what if I framed you? I bet you can't deny it.

Tom and Jerry ran away after the fight, leaving the Shrek members, who were slow to realize what was happening, standing there dumbfounded.

Tang San felt the excruciating pain on his face, his eyes turned bloodshot, and an inexplicable anger flared up in his heart. He immediately used Ghost Shadow Perplexing Steps to chase after Tom in the direction he had run.

This is an utter disgrace! Tang San was actually beaten into a pig's head by a cat.

After a slight hesitation, Yu Xiaogang said, "Xiao Wu, you two stay here and guard Mu Bai. Flander, Erlong, and I will chase after him, but don't go too fast and keep a certain distance."

Although Flander didn't understand why Yu Xiaogang said that, he always believed that Yu Xiaogang had extraordinary wisdom, so he did as he was told without hesitation and deliberately kept his distance from Tang San.

Yu Xiaogang's eyes flashed with a cold light. He believed that Tom would definitely run towards Shen An's direction. At that time, in the wilderness, he could eliminate him completely to prevent future troubles.

Tang San was increasingly annoyed as he watched Tom so close yet unable to catch up.

On one occasion, just as he was about to grab Tom's tail, Tom, who was running on all fours, turned his lower body forward and ran on his hands.

Jerry, who sat on Tom's head and kept spitting at Tang San, infuriated Tang San. While the physical harm was minimal, the insults were extremely strong.

Tom's eyes lit up when he saw the familiar bushes ahead, and he plunged in without hesitation, with Tang San following closely behind.

Having passed through the dense bushes, Tom Jerry, who had been fleeing, now stood calmly beside a tree.

Tang San looked up and his mind instantly cleared, because Shen An was standing right in front of him.

Shen An raised an eyebrow and said coldly, "It's you again. You've come to cause me trouble time and time again. Do you really think I'm easy to bully?"

The Shrek crew had repeatedly provoked him for no reason, and this time they even had designs on Tom and Jerry, which Shen An simply couldn't tolerate.

Tang San broke out in a cold sweat instantly. He had not yet developed a top-ranking Tang Clan hidden weapon, and judging from Shen An's combat prowess in the Heavenly Battle, he was no match for him.

Tang San immediately said, "Shen An, this is a misunderstanding."

Before he could finish speaking, there were several more rustling sounds, and Yu Xiaogang and the others suddenly appeared in front of him.

At that moment, Ning Rongrong had just absorbed her spirit ring. She stood up and looked at the Shrek Academy group with displeasure. She had no good feelings towards these people, especially since Shen An had already told her about the Heaven Dou Academy incident.

Yu Xiaogang was excited about his own wisdom at that moment, and said, "I told you that we could find Shen An by following the cat and the mouse."

“Ning Rongrong, this has nothing to do with you. For the sake of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, I can let you off the hook. This cat hit my Shrek Academy student. Today, I will only cause trouble for Shen An and his pet.”

Yu Xiaogang said calmly that he did not want to provoke the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School at the moment; if he were to provoke them, he would wait until Tang San grew up.

After all, if things aren't handled properly now and leaks out, no one can protect him unless he goes to another woman and lives off her.

However, Yu Xiaogang was determined to at least cripple Shen An. Judging from that sword strike at Tiandou Academy, Shen An's talent was terrifying, and his progress was also extremely frightening.

"You, in front of me, talk about the friends who hurt my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and even say you'll let my Rongrong off the hook. Aren't you taking this old man for granted?"

An aged voice echoed softly.

Flander and Liu Erlong stared in horror. How could this be? They were Soul Saints, yet there was someone present whom they couldn't even detect. How terrifying was this?

An extremely tall, withered old man appeared before their eyes. Logically, no one would ignore such a tall figure, but this person gave off an illusory feeling, as if he did not exist.

Flander's face was full of solemnity. He was tall and had a withered face. He also claimed to be from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. He instantly thought of someone: Bone Douluo Gu Rong!

He groaned inwardly. First it was Chen Xin, then Dugu Bo, and now Gu Rong. Why did this kid, who clearly came from humble beginnings, always have powerful figures protecting him?

Yu Xiaogang had guessed it too. At this moment, he was extremely flustered, but he forced himself to remain calm and said:

"Your Excellency Bone Douluo, this is not my fault. It was the cat and mouse who injured my student first. However, since you are here, I will let this matter go."

At this moment, Yu Xiaogang was completely different from the arrogant person he had been when he spoke to Ning Rongrong.

Although what he just said was untrue, he was not afraid of being exposed at all.

Although this cat and mouse are extremely intelligent, they are incapable of defending themselves, as the only soul beast that can speak at present is the Azure Bull Python.

The Azure Bull Python is the king among 100,000-year-old soul beasts and the emperor of the Star Dou Great Forest. Yu Xiaogang doesn't believe that this slightly strange cat and mouse can compare to it and speak human language.

I, Master Yu Xiaogang, will use my wisdom to gamble with you all. I bet you won't say a word!

Gu Rong looked at Tom, and as soon as Tom shook his head, he would immediately seize the opportunity to make a fuss. Gu Rong was not the kind of person who would honestly reason with you, otherwise, how did he get the most mysterious title among the titled Douluo?

It should be noted that in the original novel, upon seeing Tang San's Clear Sky Hammer, before Ning Fengzhi could even speak, Gu Rong immediately declared that he would kill Tang San.

Tom glared at Yu Xiaogang with ill intent. This guy was really malicious; he even tried to frame him.

Tom conjured up paper and pen out of thin air and wrote everything down clearly, leaving the Shrek members completely stunned. "No way, it can write?" they thought.

How could Yu Xiaogang and the others know that Tom could not only write, but also speak; he just didn't like to speak, so he wrote instead.

The Shrek team members were instantly drenched in sweat. They had tried to steal a chicken but ended up losing the rice instead. Not only did they strike first, but they also wronged the other party.

The ancient banyan tree had a deep, unsettling gaze, and an immense pressure, like Mount Tai pressing down on Yu Xiaogang, enveloped him.

Yu Xiaogang was so overwhelmed by the sudden pressure that he collapsed to the ground, only feeling slightly relieved when Flander stood in front of him.

Tang San was forced to reveal his Eight Spider Soul Bones. Bone Douluo's eyes flashed with surprise. What a treasure! It's a pity that it has already been completely fused, otherwise he could have taken it for Rongrong.

Flander, his face pale, said, "Your Majesty Bone Douluo, I offer you my sincerest apologies. Please forgive us this time, and we will never dare to do it again."

Looking at Yu Xiaogang, who had just been buried in the mud, Liu Erlong's eyes were full of heartache. He gritted his teeth and said, "Senior Gu, Xiaogang and I are both from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. We are both from the Upper Three Sects. Please let us go."

Liu Erlong's words were both a plea for mercy and a veiled threat. She was confident that the reputation of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex could help them resolve their current crisis.

Gu Rong's gaze was deep and thoughtful. He thought to himself, "Interesting. They're all starting to introduce themselves."

"Fine, very well. But if I kill you all and grind you to dust, how will the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan know that I killed you?" Gu Rong spoke in a low voice, but her words sent chills down one's spine.

Chapter 117 Poor Luo Sanpao was manipulated by Tom.

Flanders and the other two were instantly terrified by Gu Rong's words, breaking out in a cold sweat.

The ancient banyan tree had a deep, unsettling gaze, as if it were truly contemplating how to reduce them to ashes.

A bunch of people who haven't even reached the Contra level actually think they can scare him with the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family. It's utterly ridiculous. Even their dragon wouldn't be able to scare him!

Are they always this brave? Don't they know I'm a Title Douluo?

Flander and Liu Erlong exchanged a quick glance, then pulled Yu Xiaogang behind them and took a step forward, forming a triangle.

"The sun and moon shine, and gold turns!" Flander shouted, and three strong golden lights suddenly burst forth, soaring into the sky. The golden light spread and instantly formed a golden triangle with the three of them at its apex.

"A trinity of martial soul fusion skills?" Gu Rong looked at it with great interest, "An interesting little gadget."

The auras of the three people before him blended seamlessly, constantly rising upwards. Gu Rong could sense that even a Soul Douluo might not be able to match them.

Unfortunately, Gu Rong is a Title Douluo, and even a Soul Douluo is nothing more than a larger ant in his hands.

"Luo Sanpao." Accompanied by the master's low roar, which sounded like a dragon's cry, the chubby Luo Sanpao appeared out of thin air, landing precisely in the circular pattern at the center of the golden triangle.
