Douluo Continent: Starting from Awakening the Vermilion Bird Martial Soul

Di Hong wasn't bragging; he was genuinely confident that with his talent and the assistance of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, breaking through to the Title Douluo level before the age of thirty wouldn't be a problem.

"That's good." Di Yuan nodded in satisfaction. Breaking through to the Title Douluo level before the age of thirty was unheard of in the entire Douluo Continent. Among the Title Douluo he knew, the earliest one to break through was over fifty years old. This was already considered exceptionally talented.

Most of them broke through in their sixties or seventies.

However, his son was confident that he would make a breakthrough before he turned thirty.

By then, he would probably be the youngest Title Douluo in history.

Ninety-nine levels is not an unattainable height. Perhaps the legendary god is the realm that their son ultimately wants to reach. However, the realm of the god is just a legend to people like them.

No one has ever seen a god; gods exist only in legends, omnipotent, immortal, and in control of everything.

They didn't know, but Di Hong did.

Over the next six months, he planned to train his close combat skills to enhance his strength. Although his martial spirit was strong, his close combat ability was too weak. Therefore, he needed to cultivate his fighting skills properly during these six months.

After finalizing the plan, the father and his sons each left.

Di Ming went to carefully devise a plan for how to establish an intelligence organization, while Di Yang and Di Yuan went to discuss domestic reforms, as the first step in seizing power was domestic reform.

Di Hong went to check on Ge Long, who was cultivating, and then left. Ge Long had now obtained his first spirit ring and officially become a spirit master.

His training must continue.

In the days that followed, Di Hong secluded himself in the deep mountains to cultivate, while discussions about the Soul Master Exchange Conference continued unabated.

Everyone was very curious about which geniuses would participate in the Soul Master Exchange Meeting, since this was the first time the Spirit Hall had held such a grand event for Soul Masters. They were also very curious about whether there would be any rewards for the Soul Master Exchange Meeting, and if so, what those rewards would be.

Currently, many soul masters are preparing for the Soul Master Exchange Meeting. Those with lower soul power levels are working hard to cultivate, while those with higher soul power levels are cultivating more slowly.

Chapter 43 The Spirit Hall's Defeated Journey

Haotian Sect.

Tang Yuehua sat there alone, holding the soul tool that Di Hong had given her. She hadn't seen Di Hong since he brought her back. The last time she heard about him was when he killed a Soul Saint from the Star Luo Empire on the battlefield.

To be honest, she was extremely worried when she heard the news, but she breathed a sigh of relief and felt happy for him when she learned that Di Hong was alright.

Tang Hao, who had just finished cultivating, felt a little helpless when he saw his younger sister sitting there in a daze again.

Beside him, a burly, middle-aged man with a chiseled face shook his head helplessly. Ever since Tang Yuehua was rescued that time, she had often done so.

Finally, Tang Hao couldn't stand it anymore.

"Little sister, if you really want to see him, why don't you just go to the Kingdom of Silves?"

After putting away her soul tool, Tang Yuehua stood up and gave a slight bow to the middle-aged man.

"Big brother."

"Hmm." The man nodded slightly. He was Tang Hao and Tang Yuehua's older brother, Tang Xiao. Although they were siblings, he was fifteen years older than Tang Hao.

His bright eyes softened when he looked at Tang Yuehua. After all, she was his younger sister, and as her older brother, who else would he dote on? Although Tang Yuehua couldn't become a Soul Master, it didn't affect his feelings for her.

"Yuehua, if you really want to see him again, perhaps you'll have a chance during the Soul Master Exchange Conference."

"Will he go?" Tang Yuehua looked at Tang Xiao expectantly.

Tang Xiao nodded: "Yes, the royal family has announced the list of those who will attend the Soul Master Exchange Conference, and Di Hong's name is on it."

"To be honest, I also want to meet this boy you've been longing for, and see how he managed to charm our dear sister."

"Big brother!" Tang Yuehua said coquettishly, then turned her already flushed face to the side. She was now looking forward to the Soul Master Exchange Meeting.

"I also want to meet him and see who is better, me or him. Everyone says he is a genius, but I, Tang Hao, am here to beat up geniuses."

Tang Hao thumped his fist, speaking with great confidence.

Tang Yuehua rolled her eyes at him.

“Others are already Soul Kings at the age of twelve, while you haven’t even reached Soul Emperor yet.”

"So what? Our Clear Sky Hammer is invincible." Tang Hao didn't care when the other party became a Soul King. In his opinion, all geniuses were nonsense under the Clear Sky Hammer. One hit with the Clear Sky Hammer and you could see at a glance whether someone was a true genius or not.

He and Tang Xiao will also attend the Soul Master Exchange Conference, so they can see how many geniuses there are on the continent and whether there are any strong individuals among the younger generation.

For so many years, he had been cultivating with his elder brother in the sect, and he was so bored.

Half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

For the past six months, Di Hong has been training deep in the mountains. After training, he will also fight against Di Yuan, a Soul Master at the Soul Douluo level, who can bring him a good improvement.

In half a year, his strength improved by leaps and bounds. Although his soul power only increased by one level, his combat ability made a qualitative leap.

Beneath a waterfall deep in the mountains.

Di Hong sat cross-legged on the smooth stone, his upper body completely naked, revealing his almost perfect muscle lines. With a broad back, narrow waist, and eight-pack abs, Di Hong was now the kind of person who looked slim in clothes but muscular when undressed.

The waterfall's water cascaded over him, but the powerful impact had no effect on him whatsoever. He sat motionless on the rock, having now completely withstood the impact of the water pressure, and his physical strength was now on a completely different level.

Half an hour later, he slowly opened his eyes, and the instant he opened them, a sharp light shot out from his eyes.

He got up, looked around, and then jumped onto the shore.

The moment he landed, his entire body burst into flames, and when the flames subsided, his previously wet body was instantly dried by the fire.

He took out a fiery red robe from his soul tool, and the moment he put it on, his muscular physique was completely covered.

On a nearby rock, a fiery red longsword lay askew. This sword was specially forged by a blacksmith from fire-refined iron. It was incredibly sharp, but it was of little use. In battles against high-level Soul Masters, such a sword would easily shatter.

Especially when facing a Soul Master with the Seven Kill Sword Martial Soul.

Ultimately, it's not a magical artifact.

Looking at Di Hong, who had been cultivating for the past six months, he felt a pang of reluctance.

He loved this place so much. The mountains were lush and green, the scenery was beautiful, the air was fresh, and it was far from the world. The birdsong in the mountains was very pleasant to hear, and he could also hear the ethereal calls of deer from time to time. Moreover, no one came to disturb him.

Unfortunately, he couldn't stay long.

"It's time to leave."

The Soul Master Exchange Conference will begin in a little over a month, so he has to set off.

Upon returning to the palace, he explained the situation to Emperor Yuan.

Di Yuan didn't say much, just nodded. For the past six months, he had been planning reforms and wasn't very interested in the Soul Master Exchange Conference. After all, he was already quite old and had long lost the drive he had when he was young.

Besides, he's already a Soul Master at the Contra level, so he can't participate in this kind of event.

Afterwards, Di Hong went to see Shen Ning, who gave him many instructions and also urged him to get married.

He is now fourteen years old, and in Shen Ning's opinion, he can get married in two more years.

Di Hong ended up fleeing in disarray.

After meeting his eldest and second eldest brothers, he left Sylves City and headed to Tiandou City. Now, he is the only one in the family who is relatively free. Di Ming is busy building an intelligence organization, while Di Yang and Di Yuan are both busy with reforms.

Therefore, he went to Tiandou City alone this time.

He's come to terms with it now. Sometimes you can't be too timid. He's been too afraid and too conservative all these years, which is why he's like this.

In the past six months, besides preparing for the Soul Master Exchange Conference, another event has occurred at the Spirit Hall.

That incident involved the Spirit Hall suffering a major defeat. Although it didn't spread widely, the top powers all knew about it.

Not long ago, the Spirit Hall discovered an island overseas where many sea spirit masters lived. Qian Xunji then decided to subdue the spirit masters there and sent two thousand spirit masters to attack the island. However, the attack was unsuccessful and resulted in heavy losses.

Of the two thousand Soul Masters, less than a hundred returned, and two Title Douluo were also lost.

They underestimated the strength of the Soul Masters there; there were actually several Title Douluo there.

The Spirit Hall named it Devil Island, but its real name is Seagod Island.

This battle was undoubtedly a huge blow to Qian Xunji, who had only recently become Pope. The fact that the Spirit Hall suffered such a heavy loss so soon after he took office caused his prestige in the Spirit Hall to drop significantly.

If it weren't for Qian Daoliu, his position as pope might have been unstable.

The losses in this battle directly alarmed Sendouryu, who had abdicated and become a high priest.

After learning about the situation, Qian Daoliu concluded that there must be extremely powerful Soul Masters there, so he decided to go and see for himself. To be on the safe side, he also wrote a letter to invite Tang Chen, the former sect master of the Clear Sky Sect, before setting off.

Tang Chen gladly accepted Qian Daoliu's invitation because the relationship between the two major forces had gradually improved during this period. After the new Pope took office, the Spirit Hall stopped suppressing the Clear Sky Sect. As a result, the two level 99 peerless Douluo personally went there.

Chapter 44 Who is Stronger and Who is Weak

Although the Spirit Hall suffered a devastating defeat, it lost face and nearly two thousand Soul Masters and two Title Douluo. Fortunately, it was the Spirit Hall; otherwise, it would have been a catastrophe for any other power.

There are only a handful of Title Douluos on the mainland. The seven major sects combined have a total of three Title Douluos: the Clear Sky Sect has two, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan has one, and most of the other Title Douluos are in the Spirit Hall.

Despite the heavy losses, the Soul Master Exchange Conference was not canceled and was held as scheduled.

Before heading to Tiandou City, he first went to Sunset Forest to check on the situation of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well. Although only he knew about the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well at the moment, who knew what might happen and what kind of butterfly effect might occur?

Fortunately, nothing was found. No one else discovered the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye, and the Fire Wall he set up was still there, showing no sign of going out.

With a few days left before departure, and nothing else to do, he decided to cultivate at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well for two days before heading to Heavenly Dou City on the day of departure.

This training lasted for four days.
