Douluo: Dragon King's Divine Elegy

Chapter 54: Tang Clan Heroes Hall, Tang San is defeated instantly!

In the deep soul space.

Two figures stood side by side. In front of them, an old soul shadow was bound by soul chains, like a silent dead person.

"This is... Silver Moon Douluo Cai Yue'er?"

Ghost Emperor Yax stared at the bound soul in surprise.

Next to him stood a handsome man with slightly small eyes who looked no more than middle-aged.

If Qiangu Qingfeng were here, he would definitely be shocked, because this person was none other than his half-brother, Qiangu Dongfeng.

Cai Yue'er was imprisoned on the 60th floor of the Soul Pagoda. This was a special space built by the Soul Pagoda for studying the souls of soul beasts. Since soul beasts are scarce nowadays and almost only exist in the ocean, it has been abandoned for a long time and is only used occasionally. Qiangu Qingfeng used it as a "prison" to imprison Cai Yue'er.

Due to his order, outsiders are strictly prohibited from entering this place, but Qiangu Qingfeng forgot his brother. As the master of the tower, Qiangu Dongfeng did not dare to enter the ninety-ninth floor where Leng Yaozhu was, but he had free access to other places.

Using the god-killing level fixed-type soul guide shells to destroy Shrek is the ultimate means, but it is too difficult and can only be done step by step. Even Qiangu Dongfeng does not know how many years it will take, but before the baptism of shells, he can first give Shrek Academy a gift of internal riot. Qiangu Dongfeng thinks it is worth it, so he invited the Ghost Emperor of the Holy Spirit Church to meet him.

Qiangu Dongfeng smiled faintly and said, "How about this surprise?"

Ghost Emperor Yax's eyes flickered. "She's the one you're talking about who can subvert Shrek Academy from within? You're kidding! Those people at Shrek Academy have brainwashing techniques that are even more advanced than the brainwashing techniques used by the Holy Spirit Cult's lower-level evil spirit masters. How could they possibly incite rebellion?"

"That's wrong," Qiangu Dongfeng objected. "Given Cai Yue'er's resentful nature, how could she not feel resentment when Yun Ming personally agreed to send her to my Spirit Transmission Tower and imprison her for five years? Especially since she was a senior elder of the Sea God Pavilion, so high and mighty, and now she's a prisoner, this kind of drop in status is not something a 'proud daughter of heaven' can endure."

"Hmph." The Ghost Emperor snorted coldly, "Then I want to see how you plan to turn her against me."

Qiangu Dongfeng said calmly, "The person who instigated her rebellion is your Holy Spirit Church's business, and has nothing to do with me."

"What do you mean?" asked the Ghost Emperor with a frown.

Qiangu Dongfeng stood with his hands behind his back and said, "The Dark Blood Demon's martial spirit made him who he is, and his martial spirit also brought him down. He's only in his early forties, but his body is already showing signs of aging. Hasn't he always longed for the Shrek Academy's ancient golden tree to make up for his shortcomings? It just so happens that he has enough experience with the soul, so let him lure Cai Yue'er into corruption."

"The seeds of resentment have already been planted by Yun Ming himself. What the Dark Blood Demon needs to do is to make them take root and sprout."

The Ghost Emperor's eyes moved slightly.

Qiangu Dongfeng added with a forced smile, "You told me you were planning to kill the Shrek students. Once you've persuaded Cai Yue'er to defect, why not get her to give you the students' coordinates? That way, it'll be easier to catch them all in one fell swoop, rather than alerting Shrek Academy by killing them one by one, which would be difficult."

"I have secretly instructed the Tiandou Continent branch to open the soul space once a month. It's up to you whether you want to try it or not. Remember, in just over three years, Cai Yue'er will be released from prison."

The Ghost Emperor was silent.

...

"Life is a series of separations, so look at it in a positive way."

Xie Xie scratched his head helplessly and said to Tang Wulin, who was looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle by the window.

Two days ago, the senior student ran off with the senior student. Although the two hadn't even started dating yet, and Ouyang Zixin was clearly still in unrequited love, everyone could see that the senior student only had a sisterly feeling for the junior student. The boy's first love was over before it even began.

The next day, during a routine sparring match with Wu Changkong, Wang Jinxi and Zhang Yangzi were again unable to perform their martial soul fusion skills due to the influence of Tang Wulin's bloodline. After careful consideration, they chose to transfer schools. Class Zero, which already had few students, was now completely reduced to only three people.

"I know, but...Xie Xie, do you think I'm unlucky?" Tang Wulin sighed.

"Who knows." Xie Xie leaned against another window and shrugged. Suddenly, he heard footsteps coming from the corridor.

The two brothers looked at each other and quickly recovered their posture.

Soon, three figures walked in from outside the classroom.

"Brother Nan." Tang Wulin and Xie Xie's eyes lit up. Next to Gu Yue, there was a young man with a handsome face and an upright figure.

"I'm late." Nan Liujing smiled. He was supposed to join Donghai College the day after the dinner, but was delayed because of the Golden Dragon King's bloodline.

The newly acquired bloodline power also gave him a great surprise. It turned out that his choice to come to Donghai College was right. As for Gu Yue, she was just a dessert after the meal.

Wu Zhangkong remained as cold as usual. He looked at Nan Liujing and said, "Although you are joining Class Zero temporarily, you still have to participate in the final exam. Do you have any objections?"

"No." Nan Liujing pretended to be ignorant and asked, "Where are Wang Jinxi and Zhang Yangzi?"

Tang Wulin's smile became more reserved: "They transferred to another school."

Wu Zhangkong interrupted the topic: "Follow me."

After leaving the classroom, Gu Yue quietly asked Nan Liujing, "What have you been doing these past two days?" He had been thinking about conquering this cheap senior brother, but he didn't expect that he had disappeared in the past two days.

Nan Liujing smiled and said, "I'll explain it to you after the final exam."

Gu Yue said "oh" and said no more.

On the contrary, Tang Wulin and Xie Xie were very surprised that Nan Liujing could join Class Zero. Compared with the original time and space, they knew earlier that the academy planned to let them participate in the East China Sea Alliance Competition. With this brother in charge, the road would surely be much easier.

At that time, a soul guide vehicle was already waiting at the gate of Donghai College. After everyone got in, the driver immediately started the car and drove towards the assessment location, the Donghai Soul Guide Technology Park, where there was a branch of the Tang Sect.

Xie Xie asked with a smile, "Teacher Wu, can you reveal the content of the assessment?"

Wu Zhangkong said calmly, "The next assessment is similar to the Spirit Ascension Platform, but also somewhat different. For your first time participation, you'll receive rewards based on your performance. You'll need to seize the opportunity."

When it comes to rewards, I'm not sleepy anymore.

Tang Wulin couldn't help but ask, "Teacher Wu, what are the rewards?"

Wu Zhangkong glanced at him, but his eyes flicked to Nan Liujing quietly: "When you get a high enough score, the reward will be revealed naturally."

Tang Wulin and Xie Xie looked at each other, their eyes brimming with passion.

Gu Yue was calm, but Nan Liujing seemed to be lost in thought, remembering what Na'er said when she took him to the movies.

There is a special assessment for the third, seventh, and ninth rings of the Tang Sect's Hall of Heroes. If you pass the intermediate assessment all the way to the top assessment, you will have the opportunity to get generous rewards. I just don't know, if the people of the Tang Sect know the identity of the Spirit Pagoda behind him, will they withhold the rewards?
As for the reason, he has already thought of it for the Tang Sect. Since you are not from the Tang Sect, you naturally cannot get the reward.

The East Sea Soul Guidance Technology Park was awash with buildings, and large trucks were constantly passing through its wide roads. Although the quality of the soul masters hailing from East Sea City and its affiliated cities was somewhat lower, with Saint Craftsman Muchen at the helm, the Blacksmith Association was strong, and with official support policies, the high-tech industry was very developed, and various products were popular in the southeastern region of the continent.

"Mecha!"

As soon as he got off the car at the park entrance, Tang Wulin exclaimed as a team of eight mechas flew over their heads.

The whistling sound is like the most charming moan. There is no man who doesn't like it.

Gu Yue frowned slightly. It was because of the emergence of mechas that humans really began to squeeze the living areas of soul beasts, and battle armor was the last straw that broke the camel's back.

"So cool! I must have my own mecha in the future. Preferably a black level one." Xie Xie's eyes lit up.

The park was very large, and Wu Changkong led everyone to walk for a while before stopping at the entrance of a smaller park.

After the identity authentication was successful, the gate of the small park opened automatically. What came into view was a green area with several buildings inside, but they were all very small, completely different from the huge factory buildings seen along the way, and there were no living people walking around.

The building that Wu Changkong led everyone to was a small dark blue building.

There was no sign of the building's name hanging at the entrance, and the dark blue glass door was closed.

Wu Zhangkong placed his palm against the glass door, and a bright blue light danced through it. A humorous laugh echoed out: "Hey, isn't this Little Changkong from the East China Sea?"

Little sky in the East China Sea?
Wu Zhangkong clearly noticed that there was something wrong in the looks of Tang Wulin and Xie Xie, and said coldly, "Open the door."

"You." The voice sounded helpless, but still did it.

The glass door slid open to the sides, and Wu Zhangkong strode in: "Follow me."

The interior of the building is decorated very simply, mainly in white and dark blue.

A beam of light fell from the ceiling, and in the diffuse light, four metal bracelets were suspended in the air.

Wu Zhangkong snatched it up and handed it to Nan Liujing and the others. "Without the wristband recognition, you will be attacked by the defense system. Wear it."

Nan Liujing had just put it on when he heard Wu Zhangkong say, "Keep up, don't fall behind."

Continue walking deeper into the building, pass another dark blue glass door, and a corridor comes into view.

Nan Liujing's mental power was very sharp, and he noticed that the material used in the corridor's walls was somewhat unusual. It even scanned his body as he walked past. It was likely that the Tang Sect's Hall of Heroes system used this scan information when selecting challengers.

I just don’t know whether the system will choose the Shrek Seven Devils of Huo Yuhao’s generation or the Seven Devils of Tang San’s era for him.

"Dancing teacher?"

Suddenly, after walking through a dark blue glass door again, Wu Zhangkong's body suddenly disappeared.

Tang Wulin, who was following behind, was startled.

"Don't panic, these are space transfer technologies." Nan Liujing said calmly.

"Forward." At this time, Wu Changkong's voice came from all directions in the corridor.

Nan Liujing strode forward, and the others hurriedly followed. Their bodies were suddenly wrapped in a strange energy wave. The next moment, they were all transferred to another place that looked like a room.

The ceiling was a deep blue, shimmering with a crystal-like sheen, while the walls were silvery white, occasionally lit up with vein-like glimmers of light.

Space transfer technology is not a big secret, and it has been reported in the news, but it is said to have just entered the initial stage and it is still a long way to go before it can be put into practical use.

Tang Wulin and Xie Xie looked at each other in surprise. Now that they knew the news was fake, this kind of reaction didn't seem like something from the initial stage.

What kind of place is this that Teacher Wu brought them to?
Nan Liujing watched Wu Zhangkong gesturing on a light screen, while Gu Yue had a serious look on his face.

She was determined to re-enter the human world, otherwise she would never have discovered that humans had mastered the technology of space transfer.

If this continues, I'm afraid that in a few years it will impact the universe.

"Identity confirmed, Donghai Xiaochangkong."

"Test level: Basic-intermediate, number of testers: four, countdown: ten seconds, ten, nine..."

The sudden countdown immediately caught everyone's attention. Wu Zhangkong turned around and said, "The test has begun. Remember what I said."

Without giving the students a chance to speak, four blue lights shot out from the crystal on the ceiling, covering Nan Liujing and the other three.

"You specifically applied for the three-ring top-level assessment for this young man. Can he pass it?"

As soon as Nan Liujing and the other three disappeared, the humorous voice from before sounded again, but it was obviously more serious.

Wu Zhangkong said in a deep voice, "With a three-ring cultivation base, three ten-thousand-year spirit rings, and the ability to kill a hundred-year-old Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear alone, I believe he has the opportunity to complete the top-level assessment."

The humorous voice was obviously shocked, "Three rings means three ten thousand year soul rings? This is not a soul beast that I can eat."

Wu Zhangkong smiled, a rare moment: "If you want to eat, just say it directly. Don't beat around the bush."

“…” The humorous voice fell silent.

Wu Zhangkong asked, "Who did you arrange for him to challenge?"

"Hehe." The humorous voice laughed but did not answer.

...

Nan Liujing opened his eyes and became alert as usual. What he saw was an endless space, the sky was azure blue and the earth was pale white.

The others were not here, and were all taking their own assessments.

"Welcome to the Hall of Heroes. This assessment is at the top level of the Three Rings, and the current difficulty level is elementary. Name: Nan Liujing, Age: Ten."

"Assessment requirements: defeat your opponent within one minute."

An electronic sound suddenly rang out above Nan Liujing's head.

Not far from him, a white light condensed out of thin air. When it dissipated, a human figure appeared. Nan Liujing's pupils shrank, and then he burst into laughter.

The laughter spread far and wide across the empty battlefield.

The opponent that Nan Liujing has to face.

He had short blue hair, handsome features, and was about 1.7 meters tall. There was a faint purple light in his pupils occasionally. He was wearing a simple black suit and a belt inlaid with 24 jade stones around his waist.

Tang Clan, Tang San!
"Assessment, start timing!" The electronic voice sounded again.

"call out."

In an instant, Tang San moved. He was a hundred meters away from Nan Liujing, but with the help of his strange footwork, he quickly closed the gap.

Nan Liujing didn't move, watching the other party attacking him, a dark golden glow appearing on his right hand.

Tang San raised his eyebrows slightly as he was running fast. With the help of his Purple Demon Pupil, he sensed the danger gathering around his opponent.

Just when Nan Liujing was using his mental power to lock onto Tang San's figure, he suddenly saw a faint purple light flash in the other's eyes.

Nan Liujing groaned and subconsciously closed his eyes, as if he had suffered a mental shock.

Murderous intent flashed in Tang San's cold eyes. His palms were stained with a bluish-white luster, like jade, and he swung a palm knife towards Nan Liujing's throat.

The Tang Clan's unique skill, the Mysterious Jade Hand, with the added power of soul power, is powerful enough to penetrate boulders.

At the critical moment, Tang San, who was almost certain that the outcome of the battle was decided, suddenly had his pupils shrink.

The opponent who was hit by his mental shock and would not be given any chance of survival under his mental lock, moved like lightning, as if he had predicted it in advance, and slid his body in a semicircular angle, not only avoiding the fatal blow of the palm knife, but also coming to his right side.

From bottom to top, the clanging sound of a golden bell tore through the air, and dark golden claws flashed out like lightning, piercing Tang San's chest.

The powerful intelligence gave the human-machine Tang San a keen fighting instinct. His whole body was tense, his right arm dropped, and his left arm was raised from the abdomen. An invisible gust of wind mixed with soul power swam out, trying to wrap around the dark golden claws, and then push them upwards.

Everything seemed to be going smoothly, but in a moment, the dark golden claw strangely leaped forward a distance of more than ten centimeters and managed to escape the pull of the black jade hand.

Nan Liujing looked indifferent. Lightning flash can't only be used on the legs.

puff!

Strange blood flowers bloomed from Tang San's back, his eyes suddenly bulged out, and an expression of disbelief emerged in his eyes.

Nan Liujing's shoulder collided with Tang San's shoulder, and the incredible force knocked him away. The palm that pierced through his chest and emerged from behind returned to the original path, as if it could feel the wet and soft internal organs.

puff.

Covering his chest, which was filled with dark golden sharpness, with both hands, Tang San knelt down, spurting out blood. After a few seconds, his body crawled to the ground.

On the other side, Nan Liujing looked down at Tang San calmly, his right hand hanging naturally, and strange drops of blood dripped down from it, dyeing the pale white ground red.

boom.

The primary Tang San collapsed and turned into a point of light and dissipated.

Electronic sound rang out:
"Passed the primary assessment in thirteen seconds. Evaluation: Perfect!"

"Next is the intermediate level test, please be prepared."

call out.

Nan Liujing raised his eyes and saw the identical Tang San reappear fifty meters away.

Three purple soul rings appeared on Tang San's body, as well as blue vines spreading from the palm of his right hand!

"The third rule of Xuantian Treasure Record is to confirm that your opponent is an enemy and show no mercy to him as long as he has a way to kill him. Otherwise, it will only cause you more trouble."

Tang San raised his cold eyes slightly and stared at Nan Liujing, as if he still retained the memory of the previous fight.

Nan Liujing was stunned and even his breathing became more comfortable.

Mm, that’s the taste!
