Douluo Sharingan, I really didn't coerce Xiao Wu!

Chapter 156 Champion's Reward

next day

In the morning, the bright sunshine shone on the angel statue, making it shine even more brilliantly.

Above the Spirit Hall, on the battlefield of the Elite Tournament, a large number of people gathered, including white-robed deacons, purple-robed deacons, black-robed bishops, platinum bishops, and others, arriving from all directions.

Furthermore, kings and generals from the Star Luo Empire, as well as Ning Fengzhi and two titled Douluo from the Heaven Dou Empire, also appeared here.

After twenty or thirty days, the Elite Tournament has finally reached its finals today. Of the more than thirty teams, only Shrek Academy, New Divine Wind Academy, and Spirit Hall team remain.

According to the rules, eliminated teams are not allowed to come and watch. Even the teachers leading the teams from the advancing academies can only watch during their breaks.

The last three teams entered the highest area of ​​Wuhun City—the Papal Palace.

Looking around, the place is magnificent and truly stands above the clouds. Various tall buildings, resplendent in gold, are shrouded in mist, creating a sacred visual effect.

The vast Papal Palace had a square in front of it, which became the competition venue.

One hundred knights in gold and silver armor gathered here, each armed and ready for battle.

They were all tall and imposing, with fierce eyes and gleaming armor. Their imposing presence clearly indicated that this was a valiant and powerful army.

Along the way, Chen Xuan observed very carefully. Not only were there knights in the arena, but there were also heavy guards within a few hundred meters, protecting every area so that not even a mosquito could fly in.

He frowned slightly. Under normal circumstances, let alone breaking in, it would be difficult for those inside to fight their way out.

However, he wasn't too worried. It wasn't a dead end, since he wasn't taking the normal route but rather spatial teleportation, so he wasn't afraid of anyone guarding the area.

This is where the Flying Thunder God's abilities come in handy; now, all that's needed is to figure out how to place the medium.

In the competition area, everyone was present, including the elders of the Spirit Hall. Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo escorted the empress onto the field.

Fifty meters above the platform, an extremely beautiful young woman emerged, holding a scepter and wearing a purple papal dress that swayed and trailed on the ground.

She was exceptionally beautiful, with a stunning face, and dressed in extremely expensive clothes. She wore a purple-gold crown on her head, held a silver staff in her hand, and the gauze on her arms was inlaid with gemstones, each one priceless.

Bibi Dong was beautiful and alluring. Her long dress reached the floor, but it couldn't hide her stunning figure. Instead, it accentuated her beautiful curves, making her look incredibly elegant.

Beneath the hem of her skirt, two feet were visible, clad in purple pantyhose and metallic high heels studded with gemstones, exuding an alluring purple charm.

"Greetings, Your Holiness!" The Empress appeared, and at the same time, all the knights, deacons, and high-ranking bishops knelt down.

Hu Liena, Xie Yue, Yan, and the Spirit Hall team all knelt down and shouted "Long live the Spirit Hall!"

The New Divine Wind Academy was no exception; Huo Wu, Huo Wushuang, Feng Xiaotian, and others also knelt down.

When the Empress appeared, no one present looked at her with respect, and no one dared to be disrespectful.

Chen Xuan felt that deliberately doing something special on someone else's turf was undoubtedly going against them and deliberately picking a fight.

Moreover, this is an extremely powerful individual who kills people at the drop of a hat; he has no reason to provoke him.

All the knights and bishops present were facing Shrek. Ma Hongjun, Oscar, Tyrone, and others knelt down under pressure.

However, Tang San remained standing there, unmoved, completely ignoring Bibi Dong and the more than one hundred knights.

"Only my father and teacher are worthy of my kneeling. What about the Pope?" Tang San sneered inwardly.

Everyone present frowned. They were disgusted by this hothead's behavior. He was just a minor Soul Master, and they didn't know why he was pretending to be so high and mighty.

Hu Liena and Xie Yue, in particular, gradually turned cold. Bibi Dong was the person they respected the most, and Tang San's actions were undoubtedly a provocation against the person they admired. Such behavior would only make people hate him and would not be appreciated.

Chen Xuan's eyelids twitched, especially when he saw Tang San's upturned lips, which left him speechless.

He must have thought he looked incredibly cool at that moment!

"How dare you disrespect His Holiness the Pope! Do you want to die?!" the black-robed bishop roared, pointing his sword at Tang San.

Bibi Dong waved her hand, surprisingly not getting angry, and stopped the black-robed bishop.

"Rise," she said.

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone present stood up, looked at the platform, and waited for the Pope to speak.

"Xiao Gang, I've given you enough face," Bibi Dong thought to herself, her beautiful eyes sparkling as she glanced in the direction of the stands.

Liu Erlong felt the gaze, chuckled, and naturally walked to Yu Xiaogang's side, leaning on his shoulder with a very sweet smile.

Furthermore, she gave Bibi Dong a provocative look, as if asserting her sovereignty.

Upon seeing this, Bibi Dong's face visibly turned cold, and her beautiful eyes lost their charm, becoming icy and piercing.

"You bitch!"

She was already angry. She had saved Yu Xiaogang's life and promised that he would return to her side after the finals. Otherwise, she would not have let Yu Xiaogang return to Shrek Academy.

She had thought that Yu Xiaogang must have something important to do in his rush to return to the academy, but now she understood that he was actually in a hurry to go back and be intimate with his old lover.

Bibi Dong's face was icy cold. Feeling betrayed, her anger surged. She had already decided that after the finals, she would kill that bastard Liu Erlong.

Yu Xiao couldn't possibly miss the provocative glances exchanged between them. He naturally remembered his promise to Bibi Dong, which was why he felt awkward and uncomfortable.

"The Pope of the Spirit Hall, a figure above all others, is so infatuated with a slovenly middle-aged man. It's truly bizarre." Chen Xuan was speechless, thinking that these people were really crazy.

……

Afterwards, the ceremony ended, and Bibi Dong took out three soul bones and announced the rewards for the final competition, with the final champion receiving these three soul bones.

With a wave of her scepter, three streams of light shot out, revealing three soul bones—one blue, one red, and one green—that floated in the air, brimming with soul power and exuding the aura of fierce ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts.

At this moment, Ghost Douluo Ghostly stepped forward and explained, "These three soul bones all come from ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts. The Wisdom Skull among them comes from a soul beast that is over fifty thousand years old. It was obtained by the previous Pope himself."

Ju Huaguan gave a wicked smile and told everyone that apart from this spiritual soul bone, the other two soul bones were also 30,000 years old. They were the right arm bone that exploded and burned, and the left leg bone that moved forward at lightning speed. Each of them was priceless and had no market. They were so rare that they were hard to come by.

The appearance of the three soul bones was bound to cause a bloodbath. Everyone present was moved, and some even had burning eyes and greedy eyes, wanting to take the three treasures for themselves. However, when they remembered that it was the Spirit Hall, everyone gave up this unrealistic idea.

"There can only be one victor since ancient times, so these three soul bones belong only to the champion. All contestants, show yourselves to the fullest and strive to win first place!" Bibi Dong said with a faint smile, quite satisfied with the reactions of those present.

"I wonder who will end up with these three bones," Chen Xuan murmured.

The skull of the Wisdom Path is very suitable for spirit-type soul masters. It has a great effect on him, Tang San, and Hu Liena after they absorb it.

The left leg bone for rapid movement is suitable for agility-type Soul Masters, and it's perfect for Zhu Zhuqing. Coincidentally, she has already absorbed a right leg bone and is now missing a speed-type left leg bone.

Zhu Zhuqing was naturally tempted as well. No one doesn't want a soul bone, let alone one that is 30,000 years old and perfectly suited to her.

She knew that if she absorbed the rewarded soul bone, she could break through to the Soul King level in one fell swoop, and possibly even reach level fifty-one.

Clearly, the attributes of these three soul bones are very suitable for Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and Yan. It's just a pity that in the end, it's unknown who will benefit from them.

The champion's prize has been revealed, and the finals between the three academies are next.

The final competition will be an individual elimination tournament, with the winners advancing directly to the finals. The two losing teams will compete in a team match in the afternoon to determine the winner, who will then advance to tomorrow's finals.

The competition is about to begin, and the three teams will still be drawn by lot to determine their starting lineup.

Chen Xuan didn't linger and quietly left. The rest of the competition was basically irrelevant to him, so there was no need to waste his time here.

He had more important things to do; a large number of instruments awaited him to inscribe the incantations and complete the preparatory work.

Chen Xuan understood that to successfully escape from the heavily fortified Martial Soul City, he needed to master the terrain and plan an excellent route.
