Douluo Unrivaled: The Beginning Materializes the Black Abyss and White Flowers

Chapter 206 Silly March 7th

The simulated universe survival competition, like a sudden storm, stirred up huge waves on both Douluo Continents at the same time.

That's right. This time, Lu Jingming also extended the PUBG tournament to the parallel world of Douluo Continent, thinking that this arrangement would be more interesting.

However, considering that the actual situation in the parallel world of Douluo Continent is different from that in the main world, he made adjustments to the eligibility criteria, relaxing the age limit to under 25 years old.

After all, if the age limit is strictly limited to those under twenty, the younger generation of Douluo Continent in the parallel world would probably have no competitiveness in this competition.

Even with the age limit increased by five years, the overall competitiveness of the parallel world Douluo Continent is still relatively weak, and this participation is likely just for fun.

But this is also one of Lu Jingming's purposes; he hopes to use this to bring some inspiration and stimulation to the younger generation of the parallel world Douluo Continent.

Of course, Lu Jingming did not intend to reveal the existence of the parallel world.

Therefore, he plans to use special methods to interfere with the cognitive processes of the contestants from their world in the simulated universe.

He arranged for the Black Tower to use the Void Treasury to mimic the Feathered Dust, thus interfering with the cognition of everyone in the simulated universe and ensuring that they could not detect that some participating teams came from a parallel world, that is, the world ten thousand years ago.

After all, while others might have difficulty recognizing Tang San, Shui Bing'er, and the others, people from Shrek Academy would have a high chance of recognizing them, since their statues are displayed at Shrek Academy.

Even if their appearance changes with age, their unique martial spirit makes it highly likely that their identity will be exposed.

Therefore, the Black Tower's move is crucial, and the Void Treasury is perfectly capable of mimicking Feather Crossing Dust to achieve cognitive interference.

With Black Tower's strength, even a Limit Douluo would have no chance of escaping her cognitive interference using the Mimic Feather Crossing.

Therefore, there is no need to worry that there are exceptionally skilled individuals among the spectators who can overcome this cognitive interference.

Lu Jingming went to great lengths to prepare for this PUBG tournament.

Moreover, he does not intend to hold such competitions only once, but plans to hold them every year.

At the same time, he had no intention of letting St. Freya Academy win the championship. The students from the academy could participate to join in the fun, but there was no need for them to compete for the championship.

After all, his original intention in holding the competition was to improve the strength of the Soul Master world. For the students of St. Freya Academy, they did not need to compete for rewards such as 100,000-year Soul Bones and 100,000-year Saint Marks.

Once the time is right, Lu Jingming will naturally provide the best resources for his people, so there is really no need to compete with other participating teams for these rewards.

When news of the PUBG tournament spread widely across the two Douluo Continents, even the Spirit Hall and the two great empires, who were locked in a stalemate with the filth, couldn't help but be tempted.

The value of a 100,000-year-old soul bone goes without saying, but the 100,000-year-old holy mark, according to the competition's description, is a rare treasure that can provide several 100,000-year-old soul rings and may even help a soul master awaken new power.

Upon seeing the rewards of a 100,000-year-old soul bone and a 100,000-year-old holy mark, Bibi Dong made a decisive decision without hesitation to send the Spirit Hall's Golden Generation into battle.

Not only that, she even wanted Qian Renxue to participate in the competition, because Qian Renxue is twenty-four years old this year, which just meets the age limit for the competition.

Bibi Dong stared intently at the 100,000-year-old soul bone and 100,000-year-old holy mark among the rewards, her eyes revealing her determination to obtain them.

The key to her Rakshasa God Trial lies in obtaining a 100,000-year-old soul bone and soul ring. If she can win the championship reward of this competition, the time it takes for her to become a god will be greatly shortened.

This is of great significance to the Spirit Hall, which is currently being suppressed by the Black Crimson Kite, and even more so to Bibi Dong herself.

Once she obtains the 100,000-year-old soul bone and soul ring, all she needs to do is start a war and absorb the evil energy of the continent to gain the approval of the Rakshasa Demon Scythe and officially become the new Rakshasa God.

Given her control over the Spirit Hall, launching a war would not be difficult for her.

It can be said that Bibi Dong has everything ready except for this crucial element.

In this situation, she thought of her daughter, Qian Renxue, whom she had taken her anger out on and felt disgusted by.

Bibi Dong's feelings for Qian Renxue are very complex, mixed with hatred, guilt, disgust and pity.

However, it is undeniable that Qian Renxue is exceptionally talented and possesses formidable strength.

Despite the delay in her cultivation due to her long-term infiltration of the Heaven Dou Empire, Qian Renxue had already broken through to the Soul Emperor level thanks to her amazing talent.

With the help of various resources recently obtained by the Spirit Hall from the Filthy Point, she has begun to break through to the Soul Saint realm.

With her exceptional talent of innate level 20 soul power, the bottleneck of Soul Saint is unlikely to pose a substantial obstacle for her.

After all, there is a general rule in Douluo Continent: the higher a Soul Master's innate Soul Power, the faster their cultivation speed.

A Soul Master with innate full Soul Power already has an astonishing cultivation speed, but Qian Renxue, with innate level 20 Soul Power, has the talent to be called the best in the Douluo Continent. Even if it were ten thousand years later, this talent would still be the best in the continent.

However, since she began infiltrating the Heaven Dou Empire at the age of nine, how many opportunities has she had to cultivate voluntarily?

To avoid revealing her identity, she probably wouldn't dare to cultivate easily, and she would find it difficult to find time to cultivate on weekdays. Most of her time was spent learning royal etiquette, the art of emperors, and scheming.

Even under such difficult circumstances, Qian Renxue's cultivation level continued to grow steadily, and she naturally broke through to the Soul Emperor level.

If she could focus on her cultivation, reaching the level of Soul Douluo, let alone becoming a Title Douluo, would not be difficult for her.

It can be said that the Spirit Hall's series of actions were truly astonishing. Bibi Dong, Qian Daoliu, and even Qian Renxue herself all had many problems in dealing with Qian Renxue's growth and development.

But Bibi Dong was unaware that the intensity of the competition in this PUBG tournament far exceeded her expectations.

If Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and Yan were to participate in the competition without Qian Renxue's assistance, it would be extremely difficult to win the final championship.

However, for the sake of her divine test, Bibi Dong had already gone all in.

Although she felt that Hu Liena and the other two were quite capable, she still notified Qian Renxue to participate in the competition just to be on the safe side.

Since the competition takes place in a simulated universe, Qian Renxue does not need to leave the Heaven Dou Empire and can participate in the competition secretly without the Heaven Dou Empire's knowledge through various means.

Besides the Spirit Hall, the major spirit master academies of the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire are also preparing to participate.

Previously, the Soul Master Competition was forced to be interrupted due to the taint, which they deeply regretted, as they had been preparing for the competition for five years.

Now, a competition with even greater rewards has emerged, and it takes place in a simulated universe. There is no danger to life, and it will not delay the work of suppressing the filth. Naturally, they will not miss this rare opportunity.

Tianshui Academy, Chihuo Academy, and Shenfeng Academy all benefited greatly from their cooperative relationship with Lu Jingming.

At least in terms of acquiring soul tools and holy marks, they have a significant advantage.

Take Shui Bing'er for example. Because of her close relationship with Alicia, Alicia directly gifted her a Ten-Thousand-Year Ice Phoenix Sacred Mark.

After refining this sacred mark, Shui Bing'er's strength instantly broke through to the Soul King realm, and she successfully obtained a ten-thousand-year soul ring. At the same time, her Ice Phoenix Martial Soul also underwent significant evolution, and her ice power became increasingly close to the ultimate ice.

If this trend continues, when Shui Bing'er breaks through to the Soul Saint level, she will most likely break through that crucial barrier and become the ultimate Ice Soul Saint.

Of course, Lu Jingming was fully aware of these situations, since he had entrusted all affairs of the Qunyu Pavilion, including various holy marks and soul tools, to Alicia.

The Ice Phoenix Holy Mark was also part of Alicia's earnings, and Lu Jingming believed that Alicia was discreet and would not dispose of these precious resources casually.

Indeed, apart from Shui Bing'er, although Alicia also liked other girls very much, she did not take it upon herself to give them any more Stigmata.

However, based on this special relationship, these three academies became the first forces to know about the existence of Sacred Marks, and also the first organizations to purchase large quantities of low- and mid-level Sacred Marks.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, on the other hand, focused its attention on soul tools, especially high-level soul tools.

Due to the appearance of these sacred marks, the strength of the students in the three elemental academies has been improved to varying degrees.

Even if a Soul Master has already absorbed a Soul Ring, they can still strengthen the original Soul Ring by absorbing a Sacred Mark, and at the same time gain the power boost brought by the Sacred Mark.

If it weren't for the short time it's been around, the popularity of Stigmata would probably far surpass that of Soul Tools, since Stigmata can effectively enhance a Soul Master's foundation and strength.

After all, unlike soul tools which are merely external objects, holy marks can be integrated with soul masters and incorporated into their bloodline genes.

With their strength enhanced, the three elemental academies also gained confidence and planned to sign up for the PUBG tournament.

Although they dared not hope to win the championship, they hoped to achieve a top-three ranking in the competition.

Especially Tianshui Academy, with Shui Bing'er's breakthrough and her and Xue Wu's possession of a martial soul fusion skill, is now full of confidence.

Almost immediately after the invitation to the PUBG tournament was issued, hundreds of teams eagerly signed up to participate.

As the controller of the simulated universe, Lu Jingming carefully selected one hundred teams from the applicants, most of which were teams he was familiar with.

After all, he controls the simulated universe, and if he wanted to manipulate things behind the scenes, no one would know. He claims it's a fair draw, so it is a fair draw.

It's worth mentioning that Lu Jingming intends to conceal the news of the parallel world from the people of his own world, but he does not intend to hide the fact that the parallel world of Douluo Continent is another world.

After all, many things cannot withstand close scrutiny. The appearance of the soul tool, his own existence, the Holy Mark, and the various clones simulated by the tainted points will inevitably arouse speculation from others.

Moreover, Lu Jingming didn't have a strong sense of concealment, so what's wrong with being found out?
The world of Douluo Continent II is like a vague and ambiguous existence compared to the world of Douluo Continent I.

The people from Douluo Continent I will see those from Douluo Continent II in the simulated universe, but they will all be unfamiliar faces to them.

Unlike characters from Douluo Continent II who might recognize someone from Douluo Continent I as a historical figure, characters from Douluo Continent I are not likely to encounter each other.

Therefore, he will only interfere with the cognition of the people in Douluo Continent II, and not with the people in Douluo Continent I. Before everything has settled down, he does not intend to let the people of Douluo Continent I know too much about the history that would have unfolded.

Time passed quietly, and amidst everyone's eager anticipation, the simulated universe survival competition finally officially kicked off.

On a specially created island map, seven hundred people appeared in an orderly fashion above the island, in groups of seven, each standing on their respective clouds.

"So many people!"

Xiao Xiao teamed up with Ning Tian, ​​Wu Feng, and others, standing on their own cloud, looking around curiously.

However, there were many people around, most of whom she did not know.

Meanwhile, countless viewers logged into the simulated universe were closely observing the 100 participating teams from a third-person perspective.

While everyone was completely unaware, the crimson feathers drifted leisurely in the simulated universe, seemingly ignored by everyone. No one noticed anything unusual about these feathers, as if they didn't exist at all.

"Where did they all come from?" On a cloud, Hu Liena looked at the unfamiliar participating teams around her, her face full of confusion.

This is quite different from the intelligence gathered by the Spirit Hall.

It should be noted that the Spirit Hall has collected detailed information on all participating teams in the Spirit Master Competition, but at this moment, she only saw a few familiar teams, such as the Heaven Dou Royal Academy and the Heavenly Water Academy.

But apart from these colleges, there were at least half of the teams she had never heard of and had no recollection of.

"Just as I thought." In the Spirit Hall's group, a stunningly beautiful blonde girl who looked no more than eighteen or nineteen years old murmured to herself.

Ever since meeting Lu Jingming, Qian Renxue has been trying to investigate his background.

Especially after the appearance of Lu Jingming's clones in the filth, those numerous clones with terrifying strength made her suspicious.

Is Lu Jingming really a native of Douluo Continent? Although Lu Jingming claims to be from the Star Luo Empire, her intuition tells her that Lu Jingming is not lying. However, the Spirit Hall has a branch in the Star Luo Empire, but they cannot find any information about Lu Jingming.

Even though Lu Jingming came from a secluded sect, it was impossible for him to be completely isolated from the outside world; he would always leave some clues.

From that moment on, Qian Renxue suspected that Lu Jingming was not from Douluo Continent, but either from overseas or from another continent.

After all, the ocean is vast and boundless, and it is difficult for humankind to fully explore it.

As a top power on the continent, the Spirit Hall had also speculated that there might be other continents on the other side of the sea.

Furthermore, as an organization that once produced an Angel God, the Spirit Hall does indeed have records indicating that other continents exist in this world.

But those continents were too far away, and no one but gods could cross the vast ocean to reach them.

The emergence of the simulated universe, the appearance of soul tools and holy marks further solidified Qian Renxue's guess.

Now, in this competition held in a simulated universe, countless unfamiliar teams have appeared, which makes Qian Renxue even more certain of her speculation.

Many people share the same guess as Qian Renxue, including Bibi Dong, Ning Fengzhi, and others.

After all, for those in power at the pinnacle of the continent, they were intimately familiar with the situation of the various sects and forces.

Even if there might be a few omissions, it's impossible for there to be so many unfamiliar teams. There are now more than fifty unfamiliar teams. With a little thought, one can tell that something is amiss.

However, unlike them, Yan Shaozhe and Du Busi, whose perceptions were disturbed by Yu Duchen, felt that everything was perfectly normal.

They were completely oblivious to the fact that many of the teams were ones they had never seen before, and that some of the participants were clearly over twenty years old.

"This is really interesting, much more interesting than the Soul Master Competition." March 7th carefully studied the competition rules, his face beaming with excitement, as if he had found something fun again.

"You've had a tough time, Robin. Little March must have caused you a lot of trouble outside," Lu Jingming said softly as he approached Robin.

"It's alright!" The robin couldn't help but show a slightly troubled expression when the matter was mentioned.

March 7th is kind-hearted and won't deliberately cause trouble, but she is too playful and sometimes acts unreliably, often unintentionally causing a lot of trouble.

Although it was all unintentional, it really left the robin feeling helpless.

March 7th has a strong pioneering spirit and is a bit too lively. In comparison, Firefly makes her much less of a worry.

As long as it doesn't involve combat, Firefly is quite calm and makes the journey pleasant to spend time with her.

It can be said that her relationship with Liuying is now like that of best friends, and of course, the same goes for her relationship with Sanyueqi.

"Come on, Little March, I've got something good to show you." As if he had suddenly remembered something, Lu Jingming immediately activated his access to the simulated universe and played the stored video recordings for Robin and the others to watch.

"No way? This is us!" Looking at Black March 7 and his group displaying their might in the video, March 7 showed a surprised expression.

“That’s right, these are all our clones, possessing the same power as us.”

Lu Jingming explained the existence of the filth point to San Yueqi and the others, which relieved them. They had originally thought that Lu Jingming had cloned a copy without telling them.

Upon learning that it was a memory entity manifested based on memories and lacked sentience, everyone felt there was no problem.

"No, am I that powerful?" March 7 was more concerned about Black March 7's fighting strength.

Is the overwhelming power and decisive, handsome appearance shown in the video really him?

She couldn't help but wonder if this was a clone of someone else.

Their abilities are the same, both being six-phase ice and archery, as well as swordsmanship learned from the Mirror School, but why do she feel that their styles are so different?
"Well, that stain hasn't been removed yet. Why don't we go try it together and each challenge our own clone? It'll definitely be interesting," Lu Jingming suggested.

"Ah! I hit her?" March 7th looked astonished, pointing at himself and then at the imposing and invincible Black March 7th in the video.

"No, no, someone will die!" Upon receiving a positive reply, March 7th immediately waved his hand in panic, his face full of refusal.

No matter how you look at it, she's no match for Black March 7th. She doesn't want to go looking for trouble, and being defeated by her own clone would be too humiliating. This young lady won't stand for it.

Compared to her darker version of herself, Gu Yue is more concerned about the information revealed in the video.

As she watched the figures fighting in the video, the corner of her mouth twitched slightly.

Even though she had never seen these people in person, based on their strength shown in the video and their martial soul characteristics, how could Gu Yue not recognize that those who fought against her clones were all figures from ten thousand years ago?

Thinking of this, Gu Yue looked at Lu Jingming with resentment and said through soul power, "Just how many things are you hiding from me?"

She felt that Lu Jingming knew everything about her situation, but she knew very little about Lu Jingming's secrets.

“Aren’t men with secrets more attractive?” Lu Jingming replied in kind, using his soul power to transmit his voice.

Actually, he didn't intend to hide the parallel world from Gu Yue, otherwise he wouldn't have shown her this video.

However, there are some secrets that he does not intend to tell anyone except those he has summoned.

Even though Zhang Lexuan had watched him grow up since childhood and knew many things, and had her own guesses, she never brought up the relevant issues herself. Lu Jingming also didn't bring it up, and the two had a tacit understanding.

Zhang Lexuan knew that Lu Jingming was hiding something from her, and Lu Jingming also understood that Zhang Lexuan had noticed something. After all, with so many people suddenly appearing around him since childhood, how could Zhang Lexuan, with her intelligence, not notice anything?

However, Zhang Lexuan didn't care about any of that.

If Lu Jingming wanted to talk, she would listen and keep it a secret; if Lu Jingming didn't want to talk, she would pretend she knew nothing.

"Forget it, you've always been so mysterious." Gu Yue rolled her eyes helplessly and didn't press the matter further.

The reason she fell in love with Lu Jingming, this human, was precisely because she was attracted by his mystery.
She was the Silver Dragon Queen; if this human hadn't been so unpredictable, how could she have fallen for him?

It is precisely because she cannot see through or understand it that she gradually becomes deeply involved. She has no interest in those people whose true nature she can see through at a glance.

Although Gu Yue and Lu Jingming only communicated through telepathic communication using their soul power, the subtle difference between them was still noticed by the perceptive robin.

Noticing that Gu Yue and Lu Jingming's relationship seemed to be getting closer, Robin couldn't help but frown slightly.

She wondered if she should go back.

Come to think of it, she has been out with March 7th and Firefly for quite some time now, and it really is time for her to go home, otherwise they might "steal her home".

Having made up her mind, Robin's gentle smile reappeared on her face. She thought to herself, "I can't lose to Gu Yue, this newcomer, no matter who I lose to."

Although Jinxi remained silent, she was quietly observing everyone.

At this moment, a sense of crisis also began to rise in her heart.

She secretly wondered if she should run away first. Ah Ming would be an adult in two years, and she wondered who would be able to seize the opportunity.

Why don't you talk to the teacher about it? After all, the teacher is involved too!
