Douluo Dalu: The Eyes That Defy Fate

Chapter 138 The competition begins

As soon as the news of the Shrek prodigies being annihilated by the Soul King under the leadership of the Super Douluo spread, it immediately caused quite a stir in Xingluo City.

At first, most people didn't take it seriously, thinking it was just a rumor like the previous ones.

But when more than one person proved that Shrek's men had indeed entered the city covered in wounds that night, this group of people began to feel a little shaken.

Then, the secret news that the highly respected Medical Immortal Douluo had risked his own life to treat the wounded Shrek soldiers somehow spread out.

After sorting out the cause and effect, the onlookers immediately confirmed that this was not a rumor, but actually happened.

Shrek Academy was therefore pushed to the forefront.

In the current situation, no one would want such a stabilizing figure to pass away.

Especially the local residents of Xingluo City were particularly dissatisfied with Shrek's behavior.

The major colleges that were favorites to win the championship also started to investigate and found that Shrek was really as rumored, and everyone was in poor condition. They couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Even though they belong to the same Douluo Kingdom, no one would want to be inferior to Shrek forever.

For a while, Wang Yan was so worried about the various unfavorable situations that came one after another that he pulled out his hair.

The academy is far away and cannot be relied upon for the time being. The Xingluo royal family also expressed their dissatisfaction with the matter of the Medical Immortal Douluo.

In desperation, he could only ask Zhang Lexuan and Han Ruoruo to come forward to explain, but how could the two women who saw through Shrek help Shrek to clear his name?

With no other choice, Wang Yan finally decided to prohibit everyone from leaving the room and concentrate on recuperating before the competition began.

The main idea is out of sight, out of mind.

At this time, some "interested people" raised another point of view: If this is true, then could the rumors that were spread before also be true?

Like a spark that spreads across the prairie, this sentence began to spread rapidly among the crowd, and more people began to think about the possibility of this issue.

Although no one has stood up to agree with this view, no one has stood up to oppose it either. Everyone is just watching the situation.

A situation that could potentially cause Shrek to fall from grace.

And this is exactly what Lin Po and Wu San want to see.

The results of the past year have begun to ferment, but no one knows who will unveil the final curtain.

. . .

"Brother Lin, what are you thinking? You're going to let an academy that doesn't even have a Soul Emperor and only has one Soul King take action?"

After tidying up his clothes, Xiao Hongchen looked at Lin Po in front of him with a puzzled look on his face and asked him the question he had been thinking about.

Lin Po smiled slightly and did not respond. He just looked at Xiao Hongchen as if he was looking at the stupid son of a landlord.

Meng Hongchen also rolled her eyes at her silly brother and became her boyfriend's mouthpiece.

"You don't believe me when I say you're stupid. Brother Lin Po is trying to attract attention so that we won't be targeted in the future."

Xiao Hongchen finally understood Lin Po's intention. He was deeply moved and repeatedly promised that he would defeat everyone.

But that arrogant look made everyone very happy.

"It's almost time, let's go!"

"it is good!"

A group of twelve people, led by Lin Po, set off for the competition. Although they did not deliberately reveal their momentum, the other participating students still looked solemn.

"The Sun and Moon Empire feels a little different this year."

Wang Yan, who was not far away, suddenly said to the team members around him after observing for a while.

However, for the inner court disciples who disdained soul guides, Wang Yan's words were simply to boost others' morale and destroy his own prestige, and his tone also carried a hint of dissatisfaction.

"What difference can it make? It's just a soul guide. We Shrek people are all geniuses. We can beat them at will!"

Chen Zifeng's response expressed the thoughts of most Shrek students, with only Dai Yuheng, He Caitou and Ning Tian remaining silent.

One was from a military family, the other was born in the Sun-Moon Empire. No one present understood the terrifying nature of soul guides better than them.

As for Ning Tian, ​​her life had just been saved by a soul guide.

Faced with such a rebuttal, Wang Yan, who was at the Soul King level, had no say at all in front of many students who were at a higher level and much stronger than him.

I could only secretly curse the boy for not being worthy of being a consultant.

Zhang Lexuan and Wang Yan, who had been observing the situation coldly from the beginning, suddenly had the same thought after seeing Shrek's arrogance and Wang Yan's cowardice. "It seems there's no point in staying in this academy anymore. If things keep going like this, problems will arise sooner or later."

Otherwise, after the competition is over, I'll go join Xiao Po.'

The two women confirmed each other's thoughts with just a glance, then smiled at each other, and without caring about the other people in Shrek, they went straight to the competition venue.

The opening ceremony of the competition was so long that Lin Po felt a little drowsy.

Lin Po's lazy look was also noticed by Xu Jiawei who was sitting at the highest point.

"Is he Lin Po? The oddity Jiujiu mentioned?"

After hearing the emperor's voice, Shattered Star Douluo beside him also looked in the direction of the Sun-Moon Empire's garrison and compared the information in his mind.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"It does look extraordinary, but there's too little information to make any inferences. We can arrange for someone to get closer."

"Your Majesty is holy."

Xu Jiawei, who was used to hearing compliments, did not feel proud at all, but only felt melancholy about the future.

"What a troubled time."

After that, he stood up and began his speech.

Lin Po, who was leaning on Meng Hongchen's shoulder, also noticed Xu Jiawei's gaze and had an evaluation of the emperor in his heart.

'Xu Jiawei is good at maintaining the status quo but lacks the ability to make breakthroughs.

He wanted to promote soul guides and knew how to spend money to recruit talents, but he failed to overcome the resistance among the nobles and bureaucrats.

It wanted to tie up Shrek's warship, but it was afraid of Shrek's power.

He wanted to win over Huo Yuhao but was reluctant to invest, and in the end he lost everything and even the throne.

If it were done in peacetime, it might be possible to accomplish something that would bring stability to the country and safety to the people.

But, I was born in such a troubled time.

Just as Lin Po was lost in thought, an aura close to that of the Soul Sect suddenly erupted, interrupting his thoughts.

Lin Po frowned slightly, first looking at Huo Yuhao, whose eyes were red and who was panting heavily, then glanced at the White Tiger Duke on the high platform, and then he understood.

"Yuhao, calm down and don't forget what I taught you!"

Lin Po's voice seemed to have magical power, instantly calming Huo Yuhao's restless heart.

After returning to normal, Huo Yuhao first gave his girlfriend a reassuring look, then looked at Lin Po with a very ashamed expression.

"Brother Lin, I..."

"Stop, I don't want to hear any more. Now, keep looking at that person."

"Yes!"

This was the first time Huo Yuhao had been treated so harshly since he had known Lin Po. Although he looked a little unfamiliar, it was not difficult to guess the intention.

Huo Yuhao knew that this was a test from Lin Po and a future he had to face, so he had no complaints.

The others watched the conversation between the two brothers, sitting silently aside and not daring to speak.

Although Wang Dong'er felt sorry for Huo Yuhao after knowing the truth, she was also grateful for Lin Po's good intentions in her heart.

As time passed, Huo Yuhao, who was shaking all over with uncontrollable emotions at the beginning, gradually became calmer, until finally his heart was as still as water.

But beneath the calm surface of the water, there are hidden undercurrents.

Realizing this, Lin Po nodded in satisfaction.

"That's right. Losing your mind due to anger shouldn't happen to you."

Seeing that the situation had calmed down, everyone was no longer depressed and came forward to show their concern. Wang Dong'er even ignored the teasing looks from the people around her and hugged him in her arms to comfort him.

This harmonious scene naturally attracted the attention of other teams, and they all speculated what was going on in the Sun-Moon Empire.

Before spies were sent out to investigate, the voice on the platform suddenly rose three degrees.

"I announce that the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition has officially begun!"
