Douluo: Dragon King's Tai Chi Mystery

Chapter 92: Head bowed, world-famous painting frozen in time, the ruthlessness of the eternal east wind, contact the Ghost Emperor (4K)

"I, we?"

Long Chen and his group of five were stunned, wondering if they had misheard. The two-word battle armor Huang Long had been destroyed, and they didn't even have a one-word battle armor!

Two Martial Soul Fusion Techniques are like an insurmountable chasm to others, but when facing Zhao Xuanzhen, that complete monster, it's as easy as two Hakimi breathing on him!

"Fuck me!"

Xu Tianzhao roared hoarsely, like a gambler who had lost everything. He had gone from being furious at Zhao Xuanzhen's one-against-six attack to now being grateful for Zhao Xuanzhen's arrogance.

Forget the one-on-one agreement, forget the unfairness of a group fight, Zhao Xuanzhen chose to fight six against one, and Xu Tianzhao is determined to turn the tide!

He didn't want to become the biggest laughing stock in the history of Douluo Continent; the only thought in his mind was to win it back!

On one side was Zhao Xuanzhen, whom they were completely powerless against; on the other side was Xu Tianzhao, the academy's crown prince, who had lost all reason. The five of them, including Long Chen, looked at each other with sorrow. When gods fight, mortals suffer. Either way, there was no good ending, so they could only choose a slightly more dignified one.

After all, they are students of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, and they will definitely be able to enter the Mingde Hall for further studies in the future. Zhao Xuanzhen left after the fight, and perhaps he will never see him again in this lifetime. Xu Tianzhao, on the other hand, is a descendant of the Sun Moon Royal Family, and his family is the guardian behind the Mingde Hall. He has plenty of ways to torment them.

Faced with two evils, the five made their decision in an instant, obeying Xu Tianzhao's orders and giving their all for the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy!

"Roar--"

Golden light surged like a tide, a sacred dragon's roar resounded through the sky, the four soul rings shone brightly, the Holy Dragon bloodline within Long Chen's body boiled, his bones crackled and popped, and golden dragon scales appeared on his skin.

The ground exploded open, and a long golden path of condensed light energy extended from beneath Long Chen's feet. A spear entwined with the phantom of the Holy Dragon of Light appeared out of thin air, and wherever the spear tip pointed, flames cascaded down, ready to sweep away all darkness!

Combination Soul Skill: Light Dragon Holy Lance!

While Long Chen is undoubtedly the strongest individual combatant under fifteen years old at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, his two Martial Soul Fusion Techniques are their ultimate trump card.

Jian Mochen and Kuang Zhantian stood facing each other. One threw out the Heavenly Tiger Giant Shield, while the other swung the Heavenly Tiger Battle Axe. The moment the shield and axe collided, a silver-white tiger with wings on its back descended. Its body was as majestic as a mountain, and when its wings spread, it stirred up a violent hurricane.

Martial Soul Fusion Skill: Heavenly Tiger Summoning!

A cold wave froze the heavens and the earth. The two girls, Xue Liushuang and Weng Daimin, pressed their palms together, their soul power merging and coalescing. Their bodies transformed into countless ice crystals and dissipated, reforming into a blue-dressed woman who was over three zhang tall.

Her long hair cascaded down to her waist, and her icy eyes seemed to gleam with the cold light of the far north. A rapidly spinning ice wheel floated behind her head, unleashing countless icicles like a torrential downpour. The woman wielded her ice crystal longsword, freezing the ground into a thick layer of ice, and swirling, dancing streaks of icy sword energy!

Martial Soul Fusion Skill: Ice and Snow Goddess!

"I want to win! I want to win!!!"

Purple flames surged to the heavens, as if a purgatory had collapsed. Xu Tianzhao's entire body was engulfed in deep purple flames, which was clearly a family secret technique that stimulated the Purple Radiance Extinction Dragon's bloodline to rise.

The sixth spirit ring shone brightly, and Xu Tianzhao suddenly raised his arms high. The space behind him distorted slightly, and a phantom of a hundred-meter-long purple dragon suddenly appeared. Its scales were like blades, its eyes were scarlet, and its claws swung, causing a hum that caused the space to collapse.

The dragon roared to the sky, its sonic waves containing overwhelming destructive power. The earth cracked, and rubble floated in the air; the Zero Arena resembled the apocalypse. The next second, Xu Tianzhao ascended into the air and merged with the dragon, plunging down in a frenzied, suicidal manner, leaving a trail of purple cracks in his path that would never heal!

Sixth Soul Skill: Annihilating Radiant Dragon Assault!

The sky, the earth, and everything in sight were filled with bursting soul skills. The black and white lotus, flowing with yin and yang energies, finally bloomed. The spirit capybara rushed into Zhao Xuanzhen's fifth soul ring, and the soul spirit entered the skill, the Chaos Lotus!

The first impression of the Chaos Lotus is not its extreme power, but its deeply moving beauty. In the view of 150,000 spectators in the stands, a magnificent lotus flower bloomed in the Zero Soul Arena, engulfing the six Sun Moon Academy students who attacked.

The world turned into a silent black and white, and the lotus of chaos spread out scorching yin and yang flames, wave after wave of fire, as if there were no limit.

The Holy Light Dragon Spear snapped in two, the Heavenly Tiger howled and struggled, the Ice and Snow Goddess's frost evaporated in an instant, and the purple dragon that descended from the sky barely managed to advance a few meters. Thousands of lotus flames rose with long, thin black and white trails, disintegrating the aura of destruction from all directions. Finally, the dragon let out a painful roar.

The soul-guiding shield was at full power, resisting the remaining power of the Chaos Lotus. 150,000 pairs of eyes were fixed on the battlefield, with even more eyes being projected through various broadcast channels. Countless citizens of the Sun and Moon Federation eagerly awaited to witness the outcome of this epic battle that would determine the fate of two major academies and two super geniuses.

"Sa——"

As the black and white flames dissipated, the smoke and dust, like dark silk, were torn apart by an invisible hand. A golden figure stepped out, his flowing robes untouched by a speck of dust. The collapsing arena beneath his feet emitted a shattering hum, and the suspended sand reflected the cascading sunlight from the sky, gilding his silhouette into a golden, cast silhouette.

With a wave of his hand, Zhao Xuanzhen dispersed the gray curtain of dust. The golden light emanating from his fingertips seemed to freeze the ruins in time. He walked against the flow of light toward the purple figure kneeling in the center of the Soul Arena.

Xu Tianzhao's legs were twisted into a strange shape as he knelt on the ground with tears in his eyes.

Suddenly seeing Zhao Xuanzhen approaching him, Xu Tianzhao raised his dragon claws, their scales shattered, trying to grab the dazzling golden arm. But he had lost all his strength, and his hand fell limply halfway up.

"Keep your head down."

Zhao Xuanzhen's voice was so soft it seemed to float, but it struck Xu Tianzhao like a thunderclap.

The two academies spared no effort in promoting this battle. The winner would become the only supernova in Douluo Continent, enjoying the cheers and admiration of the masses, while the loser would never have the right to raise their head again.

Xu Tianzhao understood this, which is why he was so terrified of failure. However, the outcome still relentlessly progressed towards the worst possible outcome.

"I... have nothing left..."

Zhao Xuanzhen's simple four words were the last straw that broke the camel's back, shattering Xu Tianzhao's fragile and delicate defenses.

The top genius of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy broke down in tears. His past glory had vanished into thin air, leaving him only with a lifetime of shame.

The faces of 150,000 people were filled with sorrow. The vast majority of them were supporters of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. Xu Tianzhao's failure was equivalent to their failure. The Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon of the Sun Moon Empire's royal family still failed to bring glory to these supporters.

Zhao Xuanzhen stood tall and proud, with Xu Tianzhao kneeling and weeping at his feet. All around were grieving spectators, and the media's flashbulbs never stopped. The world-famous painting was thus frozen in time.

"Our squad leader is awe-inspiring and invincible!"

Amidst the sorrow, the cheers of the Shrek first-year students were particularly jarring. But if you win, you should be smug, otherwise, what's the point of winning?

Yang Nianxia was overjoyed and led her classmates in creating all sorts of slogans to celebrate Zhao Xuanzhen's victory. This attracted many reporters who turned their cameras around to take pictures. This fervor among the first-graders will also become one of the memories of this battle that will be passed down to future generations.

Among the first-year students, Tang Wulin and his six classmates, who had previously been defeated, had mixed feelings. In the face of Zhao Xuanzhen's halo, any prodigy would pale in comparison and become a mere foil.

They had always aimed to catch up with Zhao Xuanzhen, but after a year of study, they not only failed to close the gap between themselves, but they could barely even see Zhao Xuanzhen's figure anymore.

Gu Yue stared intently at that handsome profile, seemingly understanding why Na'er kept saying that Zhao Xuanzhen was so handsome it was unreasonable; the young man's unrestrained and flamboyant appearance was more captivating than any famous painting.

Even the usually aloof Gu Yue was moved, and Ye Xinglan, a core member of the Muqiang faction, was even more heartbroken. Xu Lizhi, standing to the side, felt a pang of heartache and gripped his thighs tightly with his chubby hands.

"Jingle Bell--"

The bell rang loudly. Mo Hongchen handed the unconscious Long Chen and the others to the healing-type soul master, and ordered the shattered Dao heart of Xu Tianzhao to be taken away. Then he heavily picked up the soul guide communicator.

"Give the items to Zhao Xuanzhen."

Yun Ming left with a single sentence and promptly hung up the communication, showing no concern whatsoever that the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy might change its mind.

Back then, Yun Ming forcefully broke into Mingdu and took away the Holy Spirit Douluo Ya Li, nearly causing Mingdu to be swallowed by a spatial rift. The Red Dust Clan and the royal descendants would never dare gamble on how terrifying a Sky-Supporting Douluo with the moral high ground could be.

With a long sigh, Mo Hongchen suddenly recalled the ancestor of the Hongchen family ten thousand years ago, who seemed to have done the same thing, challenging the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy alone and forging a legend.

History is like a cycle, repeating itself again and again.

"follow me."

Mo Hongchen transmitted his voice into the secret chamber, and Zhao Xuanzhen nodded slightly. The two left the Zero Soul Arena and arrived at the treasure pavilion deep underground of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

Zhao Xuanzhen admired the dazzling array of treasures, and upon seeing this, Mo Hongchen couldn't help but speak up:

"Zhao Xuanzhen, is there any possibility that we can cooperate?"

"If you leave Shrek Academy and join Sun Moon Academy, name your terms. I swear, as the current Dean of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy and the Patriarch of the Red Dust Clan, that Sun Moon Academy will grant you anything you desire."

"A traitor, I have no interest in him," Zhao Xuanzhen said indifferently.

The Spirit Pagoda, Shrek Academy, and Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy—aren't they just Douluo Continent versions of Lu Bu?

The fate of the imprisoned Baimenlou is still fresh in everyone's mind, so Zhao Xuanzhen would never be a slave to three masters!

Shrek Academy has the Golden Ancient Tree and the perfect combination of timing, location, and people to cultivate two Eight Demon Gods. For the Cricket Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy to even covet his body is nothing but a pipe dream!

Mo Hongchen said nothing more, picked up the blue and white jade box made of extreme northern cold jade from the deepest part of the treasure pavilion, and handed it to Zhao Xuanzhen.

The Sun Moon Empire mobilized its entire nation to kill the Silver Dragon. Over ten thousand years have passed, and the Silver Dragon's bones, blood, and scales have been utilized to the fullest extent, leaving only this Dragon Core.

In that era, the Sun Moon Empire had no Limit Douluo on its own soil, and even Limit Douluo could not absorb the Silver Dragon Pill. The Dragon Pill was more of a symbol, a matter of face.

Upon touching the icy, bone-chilling jade box, Zhao Xuanzhen opened it. A dragon's roar resounded loudly, and a silvery-white dragon shadow that blotted out the sky was reflected in his dark pupils. It was not a real creature, but clearly the oppressive aura of the dragon pill's malevolent energy!

The sea of ​​spirit was stirred up by a raging storm. The silver dragon's ferocity transformed into a series of icebergs that crashed down, replaying fragments of the silver dragon's memories of being skinned alive. The commotion was so great that it even startled the sleeping Teng Snake within Zhao Xuanzhen's sea of ​​spirit, demonstrating the silver dragon's formidable power in its lifetime!

The fist-sized dragon core shimmered with silver light, its core containing a semi-transparent, dragon-shaped phantom. Seeing its authenticity, Zhao Xuanzhen closed the jade box, and under Mo Hongchen's pained gaze, stored it in his storage soul tool before turning and leaving.

"Thank you for the gift, Dean Hongchen. See you later."

……

Spirit Pagoda Headquarters.

In the dark, secret room, the Spirit Transmission Tower Master, Qian Gu Dongfeng, turned off the Soul Guidance Television, his face so gloomy it was almost dripping with water.

Zhao Xuanzhen is a core disciple of the Spirit Pagoda. Normally, Qian Gu Dong Feng would issue a statement when their descendant achieves such great glory.

While vigorously promoting Zhao Xuanzhen, they subtly implied that he was an unparalleled genius cultivated by the Spirit Pagoda and had nothing to do with Shrek Academy.

At this moment, Qian Gu Dong Feng was in no mood, because Zhao Xuanzhen's surname was Zhao, not Qian Gu.

As the Spirit Pagoda has evolved to its current state, the parliamentary system has long since become a mere formality; frankly, it is simply the most primitive form of family inheritance.

The Qian Gu family is the main lineage of the Spirit Pagoda, while the Phoenix family and others are branches. Qian Gu Dongfeng originally thought that Zhao Xuanzhen would inherit Leng Yaozhu's position as deputy tower master and become the great general protecting the country of Qian Gu Zhangting.

Now it seems that with Qian Gu Zhang Ting's half-baked Unyielding Staff Technique, how could he possibly suppress this monster that roars across the world!

The main vein is weakening while the secondary veins are thriving; this is definitely a sign of turmoil.

The Qian Gu family rose to power later, and therefore placed great importance on controlling the Spirit Pagoda. Only the Phoenix family, which ranked second, controlled 30% of the Spirit Pagoda's power, and that was limited to the Sun and Moon Federation. The remaining 70% of the power, plus the power over two other continents, was controlled by the Qian Gu family.

The Phoenix Clan's bloodline was dwindling. Twenty years ago, Qian Gu Dongfeng had already made preparations, arranging for his grandson, Qian Gu Zhangting, to seize the Phoenix Clan's assets as soon as Tianfeng Douluo Leng Yaozhu died.

Fate had other plans. Leng Yaozhu ended up adopting Zhao Xuanzhen, and Zhao Xuanzhen was slowly building a promising team around him.

Silver Dragon Na'er, Elemental Ancient Moon and the hidden family behind her, Twin Martial Souls Yuanen Yehui, Ye Xinglan, the heir of the Star Saint Sword family who often enters the Spirit Pagoda with them, the Divine Craftsman Zi Jiutian, as well as Li Qiankun, the Black Swan family, and so on...

If Zhao Xuanzhen has no designs on the Tower Master, Qian Gu Dong Feng would dare to twist his head off and use it as a football!

Or, to put it another way, even if Zhao Xuanzhen himself did not covet the position of Tower Master, would his followers, seeing the weakness of Qian Gu Zhang Ting, spontaneously offer Zhao Xuanzhen something for the sake of their own families' interests?

"A genius who cannot be used by me has already chosen his own death..."

Qian Gu Dongfeng's eyes were fierce as he dialed a number:

"Ghost Emperor, your Holy Spirit Cult needs my help..."

Chapter 93: Gold and Water Intermingling with the Central Soil, Returning Home with Gu Yue, Friend of Soul Beasts, Ten Thousand Beasts Sect (4K)

Shrek Academy, Poseidon Island.

A gentle evening breeze swept by, carrying the fresh mist from Poseidon Lake, bringing a sense of vitality that was refreshing and invigorating.

In the lakeside pavilion, a silver-haired girl set up a soul-guided communicator in front of her, and the horizontally placed screen was playing the epic battle that had attracted the attention of the entire Sun Moon Federation.

The girl cupped her beautiful face in her hands, her silver-white eyes intently focused on the battlefield, appearing completely absorbed in the action.

Holy Spirit Douluo Ya Li rested her delicate hand on the stone table in front of her, exuding a gentle and serene aura. Her fair wrist supported her snow-white chin as she smiled and gazed at the silver-haired girl opposite her, teasingly saying:

"Na'er, you've been watching this rebroadcast for two whole days, haven't you had enough yet?"

"It's always fresh and new; you get different insights every time you look at it!"

The scene freezes on the image of Amaterasu kneeling. Na'er shifts the holographic perspective to the audience section where the first-year students of Shrek Academy are located, carefully examining the faces of those who are beyond excited, and speaks:

"The vast majority of first-year students are fanatical about Zhao Xuanzhen, but... there are always some who harbor ulterior motives!"

Na'er changed the subject, pointing to certain faces and analyzing them one by one: "Take Tang Wulin for example. My first impression of him was that he was chasing after the strong. The trigger for this battle was their defeat, so it's only natural that they would see Zhao Xuanzhen as their target."

Xinglan was very strange; her emotions fluctuated wildly. And Wu Siduo next to her, she hid it very well, but she still couldn't escape my sharp eyes!

However, none of the above matters at all. The most dangerous woman to be wary of is Gu Yue!

Looking into Gu Yue's eyes, I sensed four parts desire, three parts passion, two parts arrogance, and one part the conceited arrogance of considering the fool Zhao Xuanzhen as his own!

Upon hearing this, Yali was greatly shocked. After a long silence, she covered her face and said, "So that's what you were looking at..."

Her teeth grinding together, Na'er said resentfully, "I've figured it out. As long as I'm not around Zhao Xuanzhen, every girl is scheming to get close to him!"

Holy Spirit Douluo flicked his long, emerald-green hair, a sudden surge of emotion washing over him. Zhao Xuanzhen was exceptionally outstanding; even her lover, Sky-Supporting Douluo Yun Ming, was far inferior to her at the same age. There was only one area where Yun Ming held an absolute advantage.

Loyal.

Yunming is a staunch supporter of the "one man, one woman" principle, and is unwavering in his loyalty to love. He is willing to keep his distance from other women for the sake of his wife, which makes Yali feel incredibly at ease.

“Xuanzhen is indeed lacking in this respect. If there’s a chance, you could subtly suggest that he learn from Yunming,” Yali suggested gently.

"They are different!"

Na'er frowned, habitually trying to find excuses for Zhao Xuanzhen: "Zhao Xuanzhen is innocent. If there is any fault, it is that he is too perfect."

The silver-haired girl counted on her slender, white fingers: "The most beautiful person in the world, exceptionally talented, with a pure and kind personality..."

His virtues are countless. If I had met Zhao Xuanzhen when I was just beginning to experience romantic feelings, I definitely would have fallen for him too!

"Simple and kind..."
