Douro Continent

Chapter 406 Four Title Douluos (Part 2)

Moreover, these two Title Douluos were targeting him. Their origins were now obvious. Where else could they possibly possess such formidable power besides that place?

Dugu Bo's eyes had turned completely emerald green, and with a swift movement, he revealed his true form as the Azure Phosphorous Serpent Emperor. This time, he didn't speak, but instead pounced directly towards the white-robed Title Douluo on the ground.

"Old Poison Master, your opponent is me." A black shadow flashed, instantly blocking Dugu Bo's path as he transformed into the Azure Phosphorous Serpent King, the collision producing a resounding clang. That single sound alone sent all the Soul Masters in the arena, whose Soul Power was below level forty, sprawling to the ground. The warhorses beneath the Royal Knights didn't even have time to neigh before collapsing to the ground, foaming at the mouth.

"Ghosts and Demons, if you kill Tang San today, you'll face the retribution of death!" Dugu Bo was furious beyond measure. He never expected that Ghosts and Demons, those two henchmen from Chrysanthemum Pass, would appear in this place at the same time. Although he knew that they would value Tang San highly, he never expected that they would send two Title Douluos.

When Shrek Academy finished their promotion matches and headed to Spirit City, Dugu Bo had already quietly followed them, just in case the current situation arose. However, he never imagined that even a Title Douluo like himself would face such a helpless moment. Facing two Title Douluos simultaneously, both with higher spirit power levels than himself, he had absolutely no chance.

Especially since his opponent was trying to kill, while he was trying to save someone. Perhaps things would have been different if the roles were reversed.

The shadowy figure's words angered the white-robed Title Douluo, but he knew he couldn't delay any longer. His icy, viper-like gaze pierced Tang San. At that very moment, a solid, purplish-gold light erupted from Tang San's eyes.

Even a Title Douluo of such strength swayed slightly the moment the purple-gold light pierced his eyes. The suppression of the Shrek Seven Devils' soul power vanished instantly.

At that very moment, Dai Mubai opened his arms without hesitation and hugged the other person tightly. Ma Hongjun's Phoenix Roaring Strike was activated immediately, combined with Dai Mubai's White Tiger Meteor Shower, all of which were used on the white-robed Title Douluo.

A dazzling array of colorful light emanated from Ning Rongrong's Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda, and four amplifications simultaneously appeared on Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun, maximizing their attack power.

However, this was not enough to kill a Title Douluo. The white-robed Title Douluo's eyes turned somewhat sinister, and a layer of light purple aura erupted from his body. Ma Hongjun's Phoenix Roaring Strike, a counter-attack skill, was completely ineffective, and he was thrown away. Dai Mubai was also not unscathed, as both of his arms were dislocated by the shock.

If the white-robed Title Douluo hadn't shown him mercy, that single blow would have been enough to kill him.

Tang San was about to activate the Yama's Decree, but just before he could, a layer of pale golden light burst forth from the white-robed Title Douluo, making him appear ethereal and breaking the lock of Tang San's Purple Demon Eye. The soul power he had gathered to activate the Yama's Decree trembled violently, and he couldn't swing his right hand.

"Die!" The white-robed Title Douluo, possessing a Celestial-grade Martial Soul, stood before the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum. His strength surpassed that of Dugu Bo. Ten fluffy petals fluttered out, heading straight for Tang San. Though their flight appeared slow, they seemed to follow the ultimate principles of heaven and earth, sealing off Tang San's aura and all gaps.

Tang San sadly discovered that even if he wanted to use his Yama's Decree, it would be difficult to hit his opponent.

After all, his soul power was still too weak, and he was simply unable to unleash the full power of this peerless hidden weapon.

Suddenly, a strange feeling arose in Tang San's heart. He suddenly realized that everything he saw seemed to be divided, as if the entire space itself had been divided, and everything around him had become silent. He seemed to be unable to hear any sound.

The ten petals of the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum suddenly turned into powder and scattered in all directions. A tall and upright figure dressed in white quietly blocked his view.

"The Sword Dao is of the Heart." The white-robed Title Douluo's gaze became extremely solemn for the first time. Even when Dugu Bo appeared before, he had never shown such an expression.

Standing in front of Tang San was an old man, dressed in spotless white robes, with his silver hair neatly combed. In his hand was a sword, about three feet long, undecorated, and made entirely of pure silver.

His expression was indifferent, his eyes seemingly oblivious to everything around him; he simply stood there quietly, without uttering a word. Yet, even just standing there, he exuded an aura of supreme authority, as if he were the only one worthy of respect in the world.

The white-robed Title Douluo felt his palms were damp; it was sweat.

Dugu Bo wasn't afraid because at their level, poison was very difficult to work on them. Furthermore, Dugu Bo's true strength was still slightly inferior to those Title Douluos who possessed powerful martial souls.

However, the person before him was different. He was a titled Douluo known for his strongest attack, and his attributes were completely countered by the Douluo's. Among the known titled Douluos, this white-robed elder was definitely one of the few who could best counter him.

"Chen Xin, even you've gotten involved in this mess?" the white-robed Title Douluo said, his tone fierce but his voice weak.

This white-robed elder was none other than Chen Xin, one of the two ultimate guardians of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Among Title Douluos, everyone else habitually referred to him as Sword Dao Chen Xin. His sword spirit was deeply imbued with power, and in terms of attack strength, few could rival him.

"Yue Guan, you're a Title Douluo, yet you're bullying a child here. And you're hiding your true colors like this, aren't you afraid of being ridiculed? Tang San is a friend of our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School." Chen Xin's voice wasn't loud, but it stopped everyone in the battle except for Dugu Bo and the shadowy figure. His voice was like a sharp blade, cutting into everyone's hearts.

"So, you mean your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School really intends to oppose us?" The white-robed Title Douluo's face, hidden behind his veil, had turned extremely ugly. He knew that today's mission was probably doomed. Two Title Douluos had failed to complete the mission; this was a huge loss of face.

"The three upper gates are all connected, Chrysanthemum Pass, don't you even know that?" A clear, elegant voice drifted out. Ning Fengzhi, dressed simply, had appeared on a protrusion on the hill at some point. Standing beside him was Crown Prince Xue Qinghe of the Heavenly Dou Empire.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda shimmered with light, its seven spirit rings bobbing up and down. Although it was only seven rings, Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan had already made up his mind the moment he saw Ning Fengzhi.

"We admit defeat today. However, we'll remember this debt. Ghost, let's go."

With a deafening roar, Dugu Bo, transformed into the Azure Phosphorous Serpent Emperor, retreated explosively. The two titled Douluo, Yue Guan and Gui Mei, vanished silently. The men in black retreated like a tide, taking their companions' corpses with them as they went, leaving not a single weapon behind.

They came fast and retreated even faster; in the blink of an eye, these deadly 'bandits' had already disappeared on the other side of the hill.

"Dad, what brings you here?" Ning Rongrong excitedly rushed over and threw herself into Ning Fengzhi's arms. At this moment, she had already forgotten to hide her identity from the other academies.

The students from Blazing Fire Academy and Divine Wind Academy, who had just completed their alliance, immediately turned extremely grim. Huo Wu and Feng Xiaotian exchanged a glance; even they, strong as they were, couldn't help but wear bitter smiles. Shrek Academy actually harbored the daughter of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's sect leader.

This also led to a battle between four titled Douluo. Just who are they?

Ning Fengzhi's appearance immediately forced his opponents to retreat. The reason was simple: although his own offensive and defensive abilities weren't particularly strong, his presence was equivalent to two Title Douluos. With his assistance, Sword Douluo Chen Xin alone was enough to deal with Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo. Not to mention Dugu Bo as well.

Ning Fengzhi hugged his daughter and smiled, "I'm not here to protect you. I've been entrusted by His Majesty to protect His Highness the Crown Prince."

It turned out that Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, as the representative of the Heaven Dou Empire, did not bring many attendants. In addition to the fifteen Soul Master Academies, he was also provided with a carriage, but he was not the only one in the carriage.

Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo Chen Xin were also included.

As the Crown Prince, Xue Qinghe is the future of the Heaven Dou Empire. How could Emperor Xue Ye allow him to take such a risk? Therefore, he earnestly requested Ning Fengzhi's secret protection. As the Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Ning Fengzhi always has a powerful protector by his side. This time, it was Sword Douluo's turn to accompany him, while Bone Douluo was stationed at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

In the previous battles, they hadn't rushed to appear. Originally, Chen Xin was prepared to make a move when the second Golden Eagle Soul Douluo was about to attack, but who knew that Dugu Bo would suddenly appear out of nowhere.

This effectively ended the suspense of the battle. When the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School duo appeared, they had already completely overwhelmed their opponents. The two Title Douluos weren't fools, and they immediately retreated with their subordinates.
