Douluo: Rock King, the King of the World

Chapter 55 Tang San’s Master?
On the day of the finals, the atmosphere in the entire Wuhun City became somewhat solemn.

The bright sunshine fell on the earth. Under the sunlight, the Pope's Palace looked even more magnificent, like the residence of gods.

In front of the Pope's Palace, two rows of knights guarding the palace were lined up from the front of the Pope's Palace to the bottom of the mountain. Their bright silver armors and thick knight swords made the entire Pope's Mountain more majestic.

Except for Tianshui College, which had already admitted defeat and secured the third place in the competition, all the eliminated teams had already left and were not even allowed to watch the final day of the battle. Only the truly strong young men were qualified to step onto the square in front of the Pope's Palace.

Early in the morning, the two teams that entered the finals had already appeared in front of the Pope's Palace and were waiting quietly. The teachers from both academies were not allowed to stand in the square and could only wait outside.

A total of 18 players participating in the finals stood quietly on the square, waiting for the final moment to come. In the distance, Tang San, standing outside the square, lowered his head and clenched his fists, almost bleed.

He hated it so much that he was furious. Until the end, he was not able to get a place in the main team and was excluded from the final. When the final battle was arranged yesterday, he also raised doubts in public, thinking that he should get a place in the main team and play in the final. As a result, Zhongli's answer to him was "In the previous battles, it has been fully proved that your personal ability is still a certain distance away from Jiangzhu, and Jiangzhu is more adapted to our team's technical and tactical system. Therefore, from a general rational point of view, you cannot play in the final."

What do you mean by "from a general rational point of view"? It's clearly you, a villain, who puts personal interests above public ones and takes care of your own direct students! Xue Li, you have a way to die! You can't stay in this Potian Dou Royal Second Soul Master Academy for one more day!
At this moment, Tang San even felt a little regretful. If he had known earlier, he would have resolutely told Master that he would leave this academy and this team. If he changed to another team with himself as the core, wouldn't he be able to stand on the fighting spirit stage in the finals?
However, no matter how much he hated them, he had no choice but to watch the other team members walk to the square. Compared to Tang San, Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun and the others were much calmer.

"Well, I hope Jiangzhu and the others can defeat the Spirit Hall team. It's not easy for us to get to this point."

Ma Hongjun sighed and said.

Oscar also nodded. As a civilian spirit master, it was a great honor to be able to stay in Wuhun City and watch the finals from the outside. He also understood the gap between his strength and that of the main players, a gap that was almost impossible to catch up with.

Dai Mubai looked a little depressed at this moment. He had been like this since that day when Davis knocked him off the fighting arena. Flanders could only sigh when he saw his disciple like this. He knew that this disciple was completely useless.

The square in front of the Pope's Palace is as large as the platform used for the previous competition. The ground of the square is paved with unique stones. If you look closely, you can find that the surface of these stones has a faint luster. Although they are not real jade, they are far better than ordinary rocks, which shows the financial strength of the Spirit Hall.

At this time, a group of people walked out of the side door of the Pope's Palace. There were twelve cardinals in total. Their status was second only to that of the Platinum Bishop. They slowly walked to the front of the Pope's Palace and lined up on both sides, six people on each side, standing in a neat row.

The leading cardinal loudly announced: "His Holiness the Pope has arrived!"

"Long live! Long live! Long live!" Three shouts resounded throughout the entire Spirit City like a mountain torrent and a tsunami. This was not only the cry of the neatly arranged palace guards on the Pope Mountain, but also the common voice of all the soul masters in the Spirit City who could not get close to the Pope Mountain. For them, the Pope was their supreme belief.

As the huge palace door slowly opened, the emblems on the two doors gradually moved away, and everyone's eyes involuntarily turned there. Even the seven elite members of the Wuhun Hall Academy had their heartbeats speeding up and were extremely excited.

As the golden generation of Spirit Hall, they had only met the Pope once, even at the glorious moment when they were awarded the Purple Record Medal.

Bibi Dong, the Pope of the Spirit Hall, wore a golden long dress, a purple gold crown on her head, and a scepter in her hand. She walked out of the Pope's Hall with a solemn face. She seemed illusory and looked extremely tall.

At this moment, no one paid attention to her beautiful face, because she represented the supreme majesty of the Pope of the Spirit Hall. The golden dress she wore was very fitting, and the gorgeous dress was inlaid with more than a hundred red, blue, and gold gemstones, shining brightly. The purple-gold crown on her head was even more dazzling, and all the light was gathered on her at this moment.

All the Spirit Hall members knelt on one knee at this moment, "Greetings to His Holiness the Pope and the Saint. Long live His Holiness the Pope, and nine thousand years of life to the Saint!"

Saint Lady? The outsiders present were all stunned. When did Spirit Hall have such a name?
There was indeed a Saint in the history of the Spirit Hall, but she was generally called "Her Highness the Saint"; moreover, the Saint was only a disciple and successor of the Pope. How could she have the honor to be mentioned together with the Pope at this moment and be called "Nine Thousand Years Old"?
The person who followed Bibi Dong out was not the platinum bishop of the Spirit Hall, nor was he an elder of the Spirit Hall, nor was he a well-known giant on the continent; it was a woman wearing a light-colored gauze skirt, a gauze scarf on her head, and even a layer of gauze on her face, revealing only a pair of purple-red eyes. Those eyes seemed to be able to reflect all the worldly things, with a myriad of confusions; if you stare at these eyes for a while, you will almost fall into them involuntarily, and you will not know whether you are in the human world or in some dreamland.

Walking behind this woman were three Titled Douluo in red gowns and Ning Fengzhi, the leader of the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, who was also an honorary elder of the Spirit Hall.

There are only three types of people who can walk out of the main gate of the Pope's Palace. The first type is naturally the Pope. The second type is the Titled Douluo who has proven himself with strength. And the third type is the elders of the Spirit Hall. Apart from these three, even the Platinum Bishop and the emperors of the two empires are not qualified to enter and exit this gate.

Everyone's mind was filled with questions at this moment: Who was the mysterious woman following behind Bibi Dong? Why did she have such a high status in the Spirit Hall? Moreover, although she did not reveal her face, judging from her smooth skin, she should still be a young woman. Of course, if she had the strength of the Spirit Hall's Pope, even if she was in her forties or fifties, she would still look like she was in her twenties.

Which type of woman is this?

The moment she walked out of the main entrance of the Pope's Palace, the woman looked into a pair of amber eyes outside the square. Then, she calmly withdrew her gaze, as if nothing had happened.

And the moment this woman appeared, Tang San also had a wonderful feeling; the power in his body seemed to become active.

"Third brother, why are you staring at me from afar?"

Xiao Wu shook Tang San's arm a little jealously and said.

".No. I am just curious about who this person is and who can follow the Pope."

Tang San reluctantly withdrew his gaze and said insincerely. At this moment, he was also a little surprised; why. Why just now, in that moment, he actually had an impulse to run forward and kneel down in front of the woman's gauze skirt? Impossible, I am a disciple of the Tang Sect, a man's knees are made of gold, how could I have such an idea!
This woman couldn't do it. She just thought about it and wanted to say, "This person deserves to die." When she had such thoughts in her mind, she actually felt a strong sense of guilt and uneasiness in her heart.

Just when Tang San was feeling extremely conflicted and distressed, the Pope began to give him encouragement before the game.

"I see hope in you. In front of the Pope's Palace, I hope to see all of your talents and strengths. The final winner will receive the greatest reward from the Spirit Hall."

Pope Bibi Dong said as if she was reading a program. Then, she waved her scepter, and three soul bones appeared in the air, attracting everyone's attention.

It must be said that three soul bones were extremely attractive. The entire Wuhun City was almost boiling with excitement, after all, almost everyone could see this scene. If this was not the Pope's Palace, if there were not several Title Douluo's intimidation here, I'm afraid someone would have rushed up to grab them out of greed.

However, even after receiving such a reward, Bibi Dong showed no expression on her face. It felt as if everything was just a task arranged by the master.

After the introduction of the soul bones, the competition officially began. Both teams released their soul rings. Even though the onlookers had a basic understanding of the strength of both sides, they still couldn't help but marvel. So many soul kings appeared in a soul master competition; such a scene was not common even in history.

It seems that the near future will be another golden age for the soul master world!
