Douluo Continent: Starting from Awakening the Vermilion Bird Martial Soul

He was slightly inferior to me, but his temperament was far inferior to Qian Xunji's.

As a superior, Qian Xunji exudes the aura and majesty of a leader, while also radiating a noble and sacred aura, which originates from his martial soul, the Six-Winged Angel.

Of course, he also possessed this aura; the sacredness of his Vermilion Bird Martial Soul far surpassed that of the Angel Martial Soul.

After Qian Xunji appeared, almost everyone present stood up and bowed respectfully. Of course, many people simply bowed, including Di Hong.

He wasn't particularly devout to the Spirit Hall, after all, he was destined to become the King of Rebels, which meant the Spirit Hall would be his enemy.

Qian Xunji's opening remarks were brief. He wasn't one to ramble on, so he simply said a few words, announced the rewards for the exchange meeting, and then declared the meeting officially open.

Di Hong really likes people who don't talk much.

The exchange meeting process was not too complicated, and the competition was conducted by drawing lots. Of course, opponents could also be designated. Soul Masters representing the Imperial Sects could not designate Soul Masters from their own country as opponents, except for free Soul Masters.

Free Soul Masters can freely designate opponents of the same level for competition, and the same applies to Soul Masters of the Spirit Hall. Similarly, Soul Masters representing the two great empires and sects can also designate either Free Soul Masters or Spirit Hall Soul Masters.

Team battles are allowed between academies, but only between academies.

The lottery was conducted by people from the Spirit Hall.

There were many Soul Masters, but Di Hong still saw many familiar faces, including some familiar yet unfamiliar ones in the Spirit Hall's ranks.

Bibi Dong, Yue Guan, and Gui Mei are the three Soul Masters representing the Spirit Hall at the exchange meeting.

Especially Bibi Dong, just by standing there, she attracted the attention of almost everyone around her. At this time, she was still an innocent, beautiful, and pure girl, a good student of Qian Xunji, who had not yet been taken advantage of. However, at this moment, her gaze was looking in one direction.

Looking in that direction, there was a handsome young man in black in the audience who looked dull. He looked around with envy, but unfortunately he could only stand there as an audience member.

"That must be Gangzi."

"Gangzi?" Tang Hao, who was standing next to him, asked in confusion.

"What Gangzi?"

"It's nothing." Di Hong shook his head and then looked away. Was Yu Xiaogang with Bibi Dong at this time?

It doesn't seem quite right. If the two of them were together, then Yu Xiaogang shouldn't be there.

Could it be because they were afraid of being discovered by Qian Xunji?

Chapter 50 Dugu Bo

The first round of Soul Master battles was quickly decided by drawing lots. On the Spirit Hall's side, Bibi Dong faced off against a Soul Master from the Heaven Dou Empire. On the Soul Emperor level battle stage, the first match was between Tang Xiao and a Soul Emperor from the Star Luo Empire.

Since Di Hong didn't have a battle spirit, he just sat there watching, taking the opportunity to see the strength of others.

Aside from the two soul battles between Bibi Dong and Tang Xiao, he wasn't interested in the others. The main reason was that those soul masters had too low a soul power level, so watching their soul battles was meaningless. As for why he was interested in Bibi Dong's soul battle...

The reason is simple: she's the future main villain, a key character.

Pay attention to Tang Xiao, and take this opportunity to learn about Tang Hao's strength, since he was taught by Tang Xiao.

In his view, these two battles were completely stress-free. Bibi Dong was facing a level 49 Soul Master, while Tang Xiao was facing a level 68 Soul Emperor. Tang Xiao was level 70, and with his own strength, defeating his opponent was no problem at all. After all, he was the future Howling Sky Douluo and the sect master of the Clear Sky Sect. There probably weren't many people of the same level who could defeat him.

Bibi Dong possesses twin martial souls, innate full soul power, and top-grade martial souls. Coupled with the nurturing of the Spirit Hall, her strength is naturally not to be underestimated.

The two battles attracted most people's attention, after all, one was the son of the sect leader of the number one sect in the world, and the other was the student of the Pope of the Spirit Hall. These two identities alone were enough to attract most people's attention.

Both battles were incredibly exciting, especially Tang Xiao's battle on the central battle arena, where the entire arena was filled with flying sand and lightning.

Tang Xiao wielded the Clear Sky Hammer with fierce power and overwhelming momentum, as if it had the force of a landslide. He completely suppressed his opponent. If he were not afraid of accidentally seriously injuring or killing his opponent, the Soul Emperor of the Star Luo Empire who was fighting with him would probably have been knocked off the Soul Arena.

Even the Soul Emperor of the Star Luo Empire couldn't turn the tide despite his best efforts. Since it was only the first official Soul Master Exchange Meeting, the rewards were naturally very generous, especially the rewards for Soul Emperor-level Soul Masters, which were coveted by all Soul Masters.

The Spirit Hall brought out a spirit bone, which was only 20,000 years old. But this one 20,000-year-old spirit bone was enough to make people excited. How many of the spirit masters participating in this exchange meeting had spirit bones?

Di Hong wasn't interested in that soul bone. The lowest age of the soul bones he possessed was 40,000 years. He couldn't possibly absorb a 20,000-year-old soul bone. Besides, that soul bone was his left leg bone, which was completely useless to him.

He already has a broken left leg bone.

While the spirit battles were still ongoing on stage, Tang Yuehua went to the rest area. She had been watching the spirit battles from the audience seats. Although she could clearly see the situation on each spirit battle stage from the audience seats, it was not as clear as from the rest area and VIP seats.

Although there are many Soul Arena, they are well distributed, and the audience seats are also divided according to level. Of course, it is according to the level of the Soul Arena. If you want to watch Soul Emperor level Soul Battles, you can go to the level 60 audience seats. The audience will not have difficulty choosing.

However, Di Hong was a little confused. Why not just hold an elite Soul Master Competition? Look at the Soul Masters participating in this Soul Battle, there are all kinds of levels, and even some Great Soul Masters. Especially those academies, some academies directly brought their already graduated students, which is obviously aimed at the academy team Soul Battle.

Students at a high-level Soul Master academy are generally around level 30, but suddenly a Soul King at level 50 appears, and that Soul King looks almost 60. How are people supposed to react to this? What academy has students who are 60 years old?

This is clearly exploiting loopholes. There are no rules to begin with, yet they still exploit them. There is no Continental Elite Soul Master Tournament yet; it will probably be many years before it is held.

"This exchange meeting may end in failure."

Although Tang Yuehua was not a Soul Master, she also discovered that there were too many loopholes in this exchange meeting, especially in terms of the rules, which were practically non-existent.

"That has nothing to do with us. This is a matter for the Spirit Hall. Even if we fail, it's the Spirit Hall that will lose face. We are just participants."

Whether the exchange meeting succeeds or fails has nothing to do with him, not even a copper soul coin. He only needs to do his own thing now. Xue Ye only has one requirement for him, which is to defeat Yin Xuan. There is nothing else.

In fact, he did not think that defeating Yin Xuan would completely defeat the Second Prince Xue Yu. The internal strife in the royal family could not be decided by a single Soul Master unless that Soul Master was a Title Douluo.

Tang Xiao's battle with his spirit ended quickly, and the result was not too surprising; he easily defeated his opponent.

After stepping off the Soul Arena and returning to the rest area, Di Hong nodded to him, acknowledging his strength. Tang Xiao responded with a smile. It was clear to everyone that he hadn't used his full strength in this Soul Arena, and those around him praised him.

Xue Ye, sitting in the VIP section, nodded in satisfaction. Regardless of whether Haotian Clan was close to the Tiandou Empire, he was still within the territory of the Tiandou Empire. This time, he won because he had the face of the Tiandou Empire.

Qian Xunji looked at Tang Xiao in the rest area and couldn't help but think. The two disciples of the Clear Sky Sect were too outstanding, especially Tang Hao. If they grew up, they would become two Title Douluos in the future, and extremely powerful ones at that.

However, he couldn't take action against these two people, as the Spirit Hall couldn't withstand Tang Chen's retaliation.

Tang Chen alone has made the Clear Sky Sect almost on par with the Spirit Hall. The title of the number one sect in the world is too great. Now, two more geniuses have emerged. Moreover, after observing Di Hong for the past few days, he heard reports that Di Hong has an unusual relationship with the daughter of the Clear Sky Sect's sect leader and may develop into a romantic relationship.

Moreover, both Crown Prince Xue Ye of the Heavenly Dou Clan and Ning Fengzhi, the Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, are trying their best to bring the two together. If the Empire and two of the three upper sects were to join forces, it would pose a great threat to the Spirit Hall.

He didn't care about the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. After all, it was just a support-type sect and couldn't cause any trouble. Destroying them would be easy, since they didn't have a Title Douluo to support them.

But the Clear Sky Sect is different. It is too powerful and has Tang Chen in charge. If it stands on the side of the Heaven Dou Empire, the balance of the continent is likely to be broken.

This was definitely not what he wanted to see. Moreover, Di Hong's talent was truly frightening. He was almost a Soul Saint at the age of fourteen, which meant he would definitely become a powerful Title Douluo in the future.

On the Soul Battle Stage, the Spirit Hall members completed their draw once again.

"Soul Master Exchange Meeting, Central Soul Arena, Second Match: Dugu Bo of the Star Luo Empire vs. Yue Guan of the Spirit Hall."

Upon hearing the familiar name, Di Hong looked towards the rest area of ​​the Star Luo Empire. He had thought Dugu Bo was from the Heaven Dou Empire, but it turned out he was from the Star Luo Empire. No wonder he had never heard of him.

Looking around, a tall, thin man in a green robe with long, dark green hair slowly stood up. His emerald-like eyes showed no emotion, but there was a hint of sorrow between his brows. No one was sitting with him, and some Soul Masters even looked at him with a hint of fear.

Di Hong immediately recognized the other party's soul power; he was a level 65 Soul Emperor.

Chapter 51 Dugu Bo Gazing at the Moon

After Dugu Bo stepped onto the Soul Battle Platform, Yue Guan from the Spirit Hall also walked towards the platform with cat-like steps.

Tang Yuehua was somewhat surprised when she saw Yue Guan.

"Is he a man or a woman?" No wonder she couldn't tell; Yue Guan's appearance was too deceptive and easily led to misunderstandings.

“He has an Adam’s apple, so you can’t tell if he’s a man or a woman,” Di Hong laughed.

"This"

Tang Yuehua found it hard to believe that someone so beautiful was actually a man; she had thought Yue Guan was a woman.

"He's prettier than some women."

Di Hong smiled without saying a word, his gaze fixed on the Soul Battle Arena, Dugu Bo, and Yue Guan. These two were familiar to him; Dugu Bo was a Soul Emperor, and Yue Guan was also a Soul Emperor.

On the Soul Battle Stage, looking at Dugu Bo, Yue Guan let out a laugh, a very eerie laugh.

"I never expected that you, Dugu Bo, would come too."

According to his understanding, Dugu Bo was always aloof and would almost never participate in such events.

Dugu Bo snorted coldly, his tone extremely icy: "If you can come to Chrysanthemum Pass, why can't I? I never expected that after so many years, you would have joined the Spirit Hall."

Yue Guan chuckled a few times, offering no explanation.

"Come on, let me see how good you are now."

"Also, don't call me Chrysanthemum Guan!"

After saying that, he raised his right hand and released his martial spirit. He was obviously a little angry. He hated being called that nickname more than anything else in his life, except for one person: his partner, Ghost.

The moment his martial soul was released, a large purple flower appeared in his palm, and at the same time, six soul rings—two yellow, two purple, and two black—pulsated around him, and Zhou Wei was enveloped in a faint floral fragrance.

Dugu Bo was not to be outdone, and he also released his martial soul, the Azure Serpent Emperor. His eyes and his whole body emitted a green light, and his eyes became like snake pupils. The phantom of the Azure Serpent Emperor gradually solidified behind him.

At this moment, he was like a venomous snake ready to hunt, his aura becoming extremely cold.

Seeing this, Di Hong, who was in the rest area, stopped sitting and stood up to watch the two fight.

"Brother-in-law, who do you think will win between the two of them?" Tang Hao walked to his side, his gaze also fixed on the two on the Soul Fighting Stage.

"Don't talk nonsense. I'm not your brother-in-law. If you say things like that, it's easy for people to misunderstand and it could easily ruin your sister's reputation."

He didn't notice that when he finished speaking, a hint of sadness flashed in Tang Yuehua's eyes, but she quickly regained her resolve.

Di Hong continued, "As for these two, their soul power levels are similar, with Yue Guan being two levels higher. However, Dugu Bo is afflicted with a deadly poison, making it difficult for him to unleash his full strength. Nevertheless, his poison is extremely difficult to deal with; an ordinary soul master would likely die if they encountered it."
