Douluo Continent: Reincarnated as the Rock King Emperor, Wandering the Mortal World

Chapter 293: Bloodthirsty Blade Reduced to a Combat Unit, She Long

Wuhun City, Yueguan's residence.

During their time in Wuhun City, Zhongli and Paimeng stayed at Yue Guan's house, allowing Yue Guan to fulfill his duties as host.

The finest flower tea and delicious food were already prepared by Yueguan.

"If only things could stay like this forever."

Such leisurely days are what Yueguan longs for.

Enjoy tea and flowers every day.

But his status doesn't allow him to be so leisurely.

Once the Continental Elite Advanced Soul Master Tournament concludes, he'll be busy again.

"Your Majesty, God of War, what exactly must things be done for this continent to be considered peaceful?"

Yue Guan lay on the rocking chair, gazing at the sky, and murmured.

Zhong Li lay on another rocking chair, and after hearing these words, his expression remained unchanged as he fell into thought.

What constitutes peace?

Zhongli didn't know how to say this.

Peace is only relative; as long as desires exist, true peace cannot be achieved.

After a long pause, Zhongli finally spoke, saying, "It depends on what kind of peace you're pursuing."

"If one can protect a region and has the absolute strength to defend it, one can bring peace to that region."

Upon hearing this, Yue Guan fell into deep thought.

All he wanted was peace and tranquility.

As for protecting one side, he neither had the ability nor the desire to do such a thing.

"Zhongli, Grandpa Yueguan, can't we talk about something pleasant?"

"He's always sighing and complaining, how depressing!"

Paimon has his own little recliner, which Yue Guan made himself.

She covered her ears, pretending not to hear anything.

Even Paimon is getting tired of talking about this kind of thing all the time.

Yue Guan gave a bitter smile, because what they were about to do would be quite meaningful, and they would have no regrets even if they died.

I only hope to bring true peace and tranquility to the world.

"Okay, okay, okay!"

Yue Guan did not reject Paimon's explanation; he had indeed been feeling very down these past two days.

Because Bibi Dong contacted him and Gui Mei a couple of days ago, something big is going to happen after the competition ends.

Of course, it's not that urgent...

It was simply to keep him and the ghost ready at any time.

Isn't this a scam? They don't even give the exact time.

Upon hearing this, Paimon's eyes flashed with a sharp light. Didn't she understand?

Actually, she knows everything.

I just didn't want to see everyone so down.

She's very good at acting as a "mediator"!

"Let's talk about the championship battle!"

"I'll go first!"

After saying this, Paimon stroked his chin like Zhongli and continued, "Chiyu and Zhongli left Tiandou City once before the finals began."

"This means that Chi Yu should have broken through to level 70, and winning the championship is a sure thing."

Upon hearing this, Yue Guan shuddered, his pupils contracted, and his eyelids twitched wildly.

I thought that Xiao Feilian was only level 60 or so, at most a little stronger than Du Siji.

To my utter surprise, it turned out to be a Soul Saint level expert.

Nana and the others really have no chance at all.

Even though she already knew this would be the outcome, Yue Guan was still terrified.

At such a young age, he has already reached the Soul Saint level, which is even more terrifying than the young master!

"The championship title definitely belongs to Chi Yu and his team."

"As for the second place, that's a bit hard to guess."

Paimon stroked his chin again, lost in thought.

Yue Guan was taken aback and subconsciously glanced at Paimon.

Yue Guan agrees that there were no surprises in the championship.

It can be said that the entire Spirit Hall recognizes it.

The second place, or runner-up, is almost universally considered to be the Martial Soul Team!

Although Tang San is strong, he is ultimately just a person.

Apart from him, almost all the members of the Shrek team were dragging the team down.

He not only had to fight three Soul Kings alone, but also faced several high-level Soul Masters. Furthermore, two of the Soul Kings possessed Martial Soul Fusion Skills.

In this situation, how exactly can Tang San win?

Why would this little guy say that the second place is hard to guess?

"Paimon, the runner-up is clearly from the Martial Soul Team, so why are you...?"

Yue Guan said, somewhat puzzled.

"Grandpa Yue Guan, you're saying this because you don't know the situation at Shrek Academy."

"Shrek Academy, especially Tang San and his group, always manage to escape danger and unleash their potential to defeat their opponents whenever they encounter a crisis, just like the protagonists in plays and novels."

"They can only be somewhat suppressed when they encounter us..."

"No, no!"

"That guy named Tang Hao last time, Grandpa Poison Eight Directions was about to win, but then he suddenly unleashed his power..."

Upon hearing Tang Hao's name, Yue Guan trembled.

Thinking about it carefully, it's really true!

Tang Hao was almost dead at the time, but he seemed to have been given a cheat code, killing an elder and Qian Xunji in the process...

"Anything related to Shrek Academy, even relatives, is treated the same way!"

Paimon pouted and said.

Yue Guan also knew what Paimon had said.

Although Tang Hao unleashed his power, it was ultimately easily countered by the Martial God...

Thinking about it this way, His Majesty the God of War must be incredibly powerful.

No wonder the high priest treated him with such courtesy.

"I feel that Tang San will definitely unleash his full potential in this final, defeat Hu Liena and the others, and thus win second place."

Yue Guan: "..."

"Is it possible for him to unleash another burst of power and defeat Chi Yu and Du Siji?"

Yue Guan asked curiously.

He never doubted Paimon's words, even though Paimon was just a naive little guy.

"That can't be possible, can it?"

Paimon frowned, looked at Zhongli, then at Yueguan, and said, "No matter how much he unleashes his power, he is still just a Soul King, but Chiyu is not only a Soul Saint, but also possesses a Silver-level second awakening."

"According to Zhong Li, a Silver-level second awakening combined with a Martial Soul True Body makes it possible to defeat Title Douluos like She Long and Ci Xue."

As soon as Paimon finished speaking, Yue Guan's eye twitched slightly.

Although She Long and Ci Xue are weak, how did they become units of combat power?

Yue Guan knew just how powerful a second awakening of a martial soul could be.

It's important to know that Ghostly Demon successfully underwent a second awakening under Zhongli's guidance, greatly increasing her strength.

With a Martial Soul True Body and a Silver-level Second Awakening, fighting She Long and Ci Xue should be no problem at all.

Wasn't Dugu Bo the unit with the highest combat power before?

Why were they changed to Thornblood and Dragon?

Out of curiosity, Yue Guan asked about it.

"Grandpa Dugu Bo is almost level 95, so he's definitely not a unit of combat power!"

"What?"

Yue Guan was shocked and somewhat bewildered.

"That old guy's almost level 95?"

Yue Guan and Dugu Bo didn't have any real hatred for each other; he had simply been ordered to hunt down Dugu Bo before.

Of course, he didn't kill him.

Otherwise, how could Dugu Bo, who had just broken through to the Title Douluo level, possibly escape from him and the Ghost?

If he really wanted to kill Dugu Bo, he and Gui Mei would have used their Martial Soul Fusion Technique, making it impossible for Dugu Bo to escape in no time.
