Douluo: The Glory of the Peerless Angel

"The Snow Demon Sect... how can this not be considered a good draw?"

At the Angel Temple Sky Villa, watching Ling Qiuxi inform him of their quarterfinal opponents, Ling Bai couldn't hold back any longer and sincerely suggested:

"Sister, why don't you go somewhere to have your fortune told?"

"What do you mean!" Ling Qiuxi was furious. "The Snow Demon Sect is the weakest team among the two second-place teams in the three groups, a universally acknowledged pushover in the top eight. I'm the mastermind today!"

"The Snow Demon Sect is the Body Sect."

"……oh."

Ling Qiuxi turned her head away, looking depressed. "Birds of a feather flock together. The chosen one and the beast of destiny are both unlucky."

It's just a matter of picking a few strong teams and giving them a piece of the pie. In another timeline, the Emperor Beast was so tragically sacrificed to humanity that the Soul Beast race lost its protection and never recovered.

"How will the quarterfinals be arranged?" Ling Qiuxi asked, her killing intent palpable. "Back then, the Body Sect launched a surprise attack on the Star Dou Great Forest, killing seven of our 100,000-year-old soul beasts. I will avenge that!"

That incident in the Star Dou Great Forest was equivalent to the loss of seven Title Douluo powerhouses. In his anger, Di Tian unleashed a beast tide, nearly destroying Shrek City.

Ultimately, Shrek Academy held out until it received support from powerful figures across the continent, including the Body Sect and the three great empires, before the soul beast army retreated to the Star Dou Great Forest to recuperate.

Ling Qiuxi had no goodwill whatsoever towards the Body Sect, the root of all disasters. Her meaning was crystal clear: the Body Sect must pay for its blood debts!

"It's not just the Star Dou Great Forest that has a grudge against the Body Sect; the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect does too," Ling Bai said calmly. "Qiu Xi, you really drew a very auspicious lot. None of you need to participate; I'll come alone."

"You'll do it yourself, that's fine too..."

Ling Qiuxi's golden eyes flickered slightly as she spoke, "However, I heard from Ning Tian that the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Body Sect became enemies because Senior Jianmu and the Body Sect Master had a battle."

"Xiao Tian's knowledge is incomplete; that battle was merely the trigger."

Ling Bai sighed and said quietly, "The Body Sect acts domineeringly. Every once in a while, a disciple will emerge to wreak havoc on the continent. The last time was the Body Sect's two heroes, the current Body Sect Master Du Busi and his elder brother Du Bisi."

The original body martial soul is uniquely superior to ordinary martial souls. The top-level gold-grade original body martial soul is comparable to the ultimate attribute martial soul. Both of the original body heroes are gold-grade original body martial souls.

The two brothers were virtually invincible, and for a time no one could stop them. The royal families of the three great empires earnestly requested that the Sea God Pavilion Master, Dragon God Douluo Mu, come out of seclusion.

Elder Mu was powerful, but he was no match for the two heroes. At that time, the teacher could not stand idly by and watch what the Body Sect was doing, so he took the initiative to step forward and fight against the two heroes of the Body Sect together with Elder Mu.

Old Master Mu would surely die if he resisted the poison, but the teacher would survive if he resisted it.

After an earth-shattering battle, all four powerful figures were seriously injured. Du Bisi returned to his sect and soon died with resentment. Elder Mu paid the price of losing a spine and would never be able to stand upright again.

The teacher was poisoned by the Poison Immortal's true secret technique, and his life force gradually declined. At the same time, a Jianmu seed was planted deep in the Poison Immortal's bloodline, making the Poison Immortal wary and dare not approach Nine Treasures City...

Ling Qiuxi listened quietly to the old stories of the human world from the previous era. Ling Bai paused for a moment and continued:

"The matter should have ended here, but Du Bu Si, due to Shrek Academy's profound foundation, instead blamed his brother's death on the teacher and resented the teacher for stopping him."

Since the teacher was a revered member of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, Du Bu Si's revenge target naturally fell to the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School.

The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, having operated for millennia, had built a vast commercial empire with businesses in every corner of the continent. Poison Immortal dispatched disciples to destroy the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School's forces, while the Body Sect employed hit-and-run tactics, leaving the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School powerless to resist, forcing it to retreat from the open to the covert operations.

After that, the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile School suffered occasional losses, but these were always within its tolerance range, and the two schools managed to coexist peacefully for several decades.

The Body Sect will not let the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect go, not only because of the hatred between the two powerful figures, but also because of the tempting benefits.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda is a renowned top-tier support-type martial soul. As long as the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda soul master controls the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda to assist their own disciples, the Body Sect will be like a tiger with wings, doubling its combat power, enough to crush the Sun Moon Bright Virtue Hall and Shrek Sea God Pavilion.

While waiting for his teacher's life force to run out, Du Busi slowly and steadily weakened the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School's power, for example... by killing outgoing Soul Masters!

Twelve years ago, Xiaotian and I were five years old, and Xiaotian's father, Uncle Changqing, broke through to level ninety in soul power.

The entire sect was overjoyed, because due to the threat from the Body Sect, no Title Douluo had been willing to join for a long time.

At that time, the sect still had two titled Douluo, the teacher and Xiaotian's maternal grandmother, whose martial souls were the same as Aunt Yu's, the Azure Vine Emperor.

Since the teacher was too injured to go out, Xiao Tian's maternal grandparents accompanied Uncle Changqing to hunt for the ninth soul ring. With a titled Douluo, a quasi-titled Douluo, and the assistance of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Soul Saint, this configuration should not encounter any accidents unless they run into the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts.

But they just couldn't come back...

Ling Qiuxi said sadly, "With her parents and lover passing away at the same time, Aunt Ya must be very sad."

"She didn't shed a single tear, yet she ascended to the position of sect leader and supported the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, ordering Uncle Xie to investigate the cause of death of three relatives."

Uncle Changqing's martial soul is called the Sacred Flame Wolf, a mutated and enhanced form of the soul beast, the Blazing Flame Wolf. The Blazing Flame Wolf clan has a unique ability: to transmit messages using the flames of the flame wolf.

Uncle Xie found Uncle Changqing's Azure Wolf Fire Seed on the only way from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School to the Star Dou Great Forest. The message contained two words: "original body".

Uncle Changqing's hunting of soul beasts was a top secret, and it must have been leaked to the Body Sect by a traitor. Aunt Ya should thoroughly investigate the sect and find out all the traitors.

From then on, the two sects became mortal enemies. The Body Sect constantly sought to devour the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, while the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect temporarily lay low, concealing its intention to destroy the Body Sect.

"Ning Tian doesn't know any of these secrets?" Ling Qiuxi asked in surprise.

"Yes, Aunt Ya didn't want to put too much pressure on her, so she only said that Uncle Changqing and the others' deaths were accidents. The only people who know the whole story are Aunt Ya, Aunt Yu, the teacher, Uncle Xie, and me."

"You're so young, how would you know?"

"Because a year later I will be six years old, my martial soul will awaken, I will be at level 20 innate, and I will have a god-level martial soul, the Six-Winged Angel."

In my heart, Aunt Ya has always been a calm and wise sect leader, and I have never seen her so emotional.

That day, she took me to the sect's ancestral hall, hugged me with a force that seemed to crush a person, and revealed all the secrets in front of the memorial tablets of her three relatives, telling me that the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would spare no effort to raise me.

Actually, there was one more thing she didn't say: one day she would avenge the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Of course, she didn't say, "I can do it myself."

Ling Bai's tone was cold. In the battle of Mingde Hall, the Body Sect's attempt to steal a chicken ended up losing its own rice. Two of the eleven Title Douluos were gone, and the Soul Saints and Soul Douluos suffered even greater losses.

The retaliation is far from over; in tomorrow's battle, he will stand in the center of the arena.

Whoever comes, dies!

……

The sky was as dark as ink, and the dark clouds seemed to hang over everyone's hearts, lingering for a long time.

The Angelic Temple and Snow Demon Sect teams entered the arena. The Snow Demon Sect's main players from the group stage disappeared, and seven substitute players appeared to participate.

All eight teams were present to watch the match. Apart from the Tang Sect, they didn't even know the effects of Ling Bai's eight soul skills, and they hoped that the Snow Demon Sect would put up a good fight.

"Princess Vina..."

Someone recognized the gentle and charming Vina from the Snow Demon Sect, and was surprised that a princess of a nation would join a non-top-tier sect.

"Huh, Ling Bai went into the waiting area alone?"

For some unspeakable reason, Wang Dong'er paid special attention to Ling Bai. In the past, Ling Bai always slacked off, while the six people from the Angel Temple worked like oxen and horses.

This time, the situation took a complete 180-degree turn. Ling Bai was fighting a tough battle, while the six team members were waving towels in the rest area!

Looking at that perfectly sculpted face, the Unbreakable Douluo Zheng Zhan unconsciously frowned. Among all the team members, Ling Bai was the most difficult to deal with. He had no confidence that he could save people under the Angelic Holy Sword, and could only hope that Ling Bai would show mercy.

"They're not competing with you?"

Zheng Zhan discovered that only Ling Bai from the Angel Temple was participating in the battle.

One person is enough.

Ling Bai did not deliberately lower his voice. Everyone in the arena was a Soul Master. As soon as he said this, there was an uproar. The Snow Demon Sect was a team that was among the top eight in the competition. Did he think he could sweep them all by himself?

The Snow Demon Sect... no, the Body Sect's fists clenched so tightly they cracked. There were actually people in this world even more arrogant than them!

After confirming, Zheng Zhan stopped rambling and said in a deep voice, "The quarterfinals will be between the Angelic Temple and the Snow Demon Sect. It's an individual elimination tournament, and the first player from each side will take the stage!"

On the Snow Demon Sect's side, a tall young man stood up, stepped onto the arena, and glared angrily at Ling Bai, who had an indifferent expression on his face.

"The match begins!"

Two yellow, two purple, and two black spirit rings rose from the youth's feet, instantly making his aura stronger. The Body Sect didn't expect the Soul Emperor to defeat the Soul Douluo; they just wanted him to test the waters and consume Ling Bai's spirit power.

With a heavy stomp of his toes, the young man leaped into the air, his arms outstretched to his sides. As he continued to rise, all six of his spirit rings lit up.

A bronze-colored light flashed, shaped like two giant hands. The bronze light was so dense and substantial that its heavy aura crushed the entire arena.

The main body's martial soul, the Twin Palms, has undergone a second awakening at the Bronze level!

A flash of sword light shone brightly, and golden sword shadows overlapped all over the field like a tsunami in an instant. The sharp arc of light started from the angelic holy sword and swept towards the finish line without a shadow!

The Six-Winged Angel's Second Soul Skill: Evil-Repelling Slash!

Ling Bai specifically summoned back the Spider Emperor's clone and donned the Thousand Enchantress Mask, all so that he could act without restraint!

After absorbing the essence of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, every soul skill of the Six-Winged Angel is a 100,000-year soul skill!

In a fleeting moment, the sword light, like a splash of golden lightning, tore through the body of the young man from the Body Sect!

The bronze hand shattered, and a splash of crimson broke the critical balance. Amidst a rain of blood, the youth broke into pieces and fell to the ground!

"Murder...murder!"

The audience screamed in panic. There were quite a few deaths and injuries in this competition, but the six-ring Soul Emperor who died so easily and bloodily was the first. And the person who killed him was a six-winged angel!

The Body Sect was immediately horrified. They did not expect Ling Bai to kill them in full view of everyone. One after another, figures wearing black cloaks suddenly appeared beside the team members.

Some were saddened while others were overjoyed. The Body Sect member died as soon as he appeared, which made Jing Hongchen, the master of Mingde Hall, extremely happy. He wished he could hire Ling Bai with two level-nine soul tools to kill without restraint and avenge Mingde Hall!

"Please welcome our second member from the Snow Demon Sect to the stage!"

Zheng Zhan swallowed hard. He really hadn't reacted yet. Judging from the power of that Evil-Repelling Slash, even the Unbreakable Shield would have a hard time withstanding it!

"Be careful."

Another young man stepped onto the stage with a heavy heart. Since he had chosen to reveal his identity, the Body Sect could not simply give up the competition because of the death of a Soul Emperor, otherwise it would become a laughing stock across the entire continent!

They'll grit their teeth and persevere through a few more games!

The spirit rings are revealed; this person is also a six-ring spirit emperor, and his original spirit is two legs!

With the activation of the Bronze-level Second Awakening, the youth slightly bent his knees and leaped up like an arrow, his legs kicking out alternately in the air, like two giant bronze pillars crashing down.

On the surface, the first soul ring of the century shone brightly, and the dazzling stars outlined a seven-pointed star array. The two bronze pillars that landed on it only caused a ripple.

The next moment, the golden holy fire erupted, and the flames, mixed with three extreme attributes, raged across the sky, turning the world into a flowing light, and the dazzling light and shadow filled the entire space!

Radiant Spirit Array - Annihilation!

"Referee, help me!"

Screams came from the sacred flame. Zheng Zhan couldn't go too far, so he could only throw out a level nine soul guide shield.

Ling Bai's first soul ring flashed again, and the endless holy fire within the Radiant Spirit Array exploded with a deafening roar. The terrifying destructive force destroyed the level nine soul guide shield, and a large amount of light and flame fell, enveloping the dark and shattered corpse of the Soul Emperor of the Body Sect.

Zheng Zhan was drenched in sweat; I really couldn't stop him!

"This isn't a fight, this is murder!"

The members of the Body Sect waiting area were pale-faced and roared at Ling Bai.

"Yes, I'm here to kill people."

The clear, melodious voice drowned out the noise, and the members of the Body Sect stopped abruptly, because Ling Bai was watching them from the sky.

"You can choose to step down, abstain, and then go home safely."

Or prepare to die, challenge me!

Those golden eyes burned intensely, and they seemed to see the earth torn apart, with flames swirling wildly within them, like molten lava gushing forth from the cracked earth.

Upon hearing this, a burly young man suddenly stood up. Princess Vina of the Heavenly Soul quickly grabbed his hand and pleaded:

"Aotian, no..."

That brutal bastard has unjustly assumed the title of Six-Winged Angel; he's clearly trying to wipe out the sect's younger generation. You're no match for him, and the referee can't stop him!

"Vina, I am the young master of the Body Sect."

Long Aotian gently but firmly pried Vina's hands apart and slowly said, "The dignity of the Body Sect now needs me to protect it!"

Long Aotian walked onto the competition stage. The two of them, one soaring in the sky and the other standing on the ground, instantly reached the peak of their clash of auras.

With a gentle flap of his six wings, Ling Bai hovered five meters in front of him, his eyes crinkling with a smile:

"Not bad, that's some backbone."

Long Aotian remained unmoved, his soul power surging around him, and his soul rings rose one after another.

Yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black!

Long Aotian, the number one genius of the Body Sect, is a seven-ring Soul Saint!

"The pride of the Body Sect shall not be trampled upon!" (End of Chapter)
