"So strong! Senior Sister Ma's strength, according to Teacher Zhou, is enough to contend with a Titled Douluo, and Elder Gong is a genuine Titled Douluo. Yet, they are no match for this old man in front of us," Huo Yuhao said in shock. He never expected that even within the Titled Douluo realm, the difference could be so immense.
Jinpeng said proudly, "Gong Changlong, though you are called the Beast King, my Martial Soul is not a beast. Your prestige as the King of Beasts has no effect on me. And little girl, the Ultimate Fire Phoenix Martial Soul is indeed uniquely gifted, but this old man's Martial Soul is also a top-tier Body Martial Soul, no weaker than yours. Not to mention, your cultivation is only at Soul Sage and ordinary Titled Douluo, while this old man is a Rank 96 Super Douluo!"
Jinpeng unleashed his full pressure, and that terrifying oppressive force alarmed many strong individuals in the city.
"Super Douluo!" Inside the Star Luo City Tribute Hall, many worshipers felt this pressure, their expressions grim. How could a Super Douluo battle erupt within Star Luo City? Who is so lawless?
However, the next moment, an even more terrifying pressure, stronger than Golden Body Douluo's, swept over them.
"Jinpeng, your Body Sect has gone too far!" Xuan Zi descended from the sky, blocking all of Jinpeng's pressure. With him there, the Shrek students could finally stand up.
"Elder Xuan, I..." Gong Changlong quickly ran to Xuan Zi, preparing to beg for forgiveness.
Xuan Zi raised his arm and said, "It's fine. It's normal that you're no match for the Vice Sect Master of the Body Sect." Jinpeng in front of him had undergone a golden-level awakening of his Martial Soul, and his soul rings had evolved. His ninth soul ring might not have been obtained by hunting a 100,000-year soul beast; it could also have evolved to the 100,000-year level due to the enhancement of his soul ring's power during his golden-level awakening. This person's combat strength was extremely strong. Even if Xuan Zi personally made a move, it would take a lot of effort to take him down. How could Gong Changlong, a Rank 93 Titled Douluo, contend with him?
"Xuan Zi, you actually came too?" Jinpeng feigned surprise.
Xuan Zi looked at Jinpeng and said, "Jinpeng, this is neither my Shrek Academy nor your Body Sect. On someone else's territory, aren't you being a bit too arrogant?"
"Hmph, so what if I'm arrogant? Huo Yuhao possesses a Body Martial Soul, so he is a person of our Body Sect. What's wrong with me taking him home?" Jinpeng said.
"Huo Yuhao just said that Shrek is his home. Your Body Sect is always so overbearing. You want to take Huo Yuhao, but have you asked for his own consent?" Xuan Zi said angrily.
Jinpeng's hand, hidden beneath his sleeve, unconsciously clenched into a fist. He thought to himself, "Good, very good. I didn't expect you, Xuan Zi, to even understand this principle. What about Yuwentuo? When Shrek forcibly detained him, did you ask for his consent?" If he weren't worried about affecting the Sect Master's plan, he would truly want to fight Xuan Zi at all costs. Even if he couldn't win, he would at least make him pay a heavy price and seek justice for his disciple.
"It seems someone else is coming." Xuan Zi suddenly looked towards the horizon.
Three rays of light suddenly flew from the direction of the Star Luo Imperial Palace Tribute Hall and stood before the two. Two men and one woman. Among the two men, there was an elder, not tall, of average height, very thin, but full of vigor. The other man looked more like a middle-aged person, with extremely heavy killing intent in his brows and eyes. The last woman was clearly the leader among the three. She was an old woman with a wrinkled face and white hair, making it impossible to discern her actual age.
Xuan Zi said, "It turns out to be the Protector Douluo of the Star Luo Empire, Heavenly Fiend Douluo Huang Jinxu, Gigantic Strength Douluo Cheng Gang, and you, Vice Hall Master of the Star Luo Tribute Hall, Medical Immortal Douluo Wang Xian'er, Senior."
Everyone was startled; three more Titled Douluo had actually arrived. And among them, one person even Xuan Zi had to address as Senior. How old and how senior was she?
Xu Sanshi looked at Huo Yuhao with a teasing gaze, thinking to himself that this kid had a lot of clout. For his sake, a total of six Titled Douluo had gathered here. Especially Medical Immortal Douluo Wang Xian'er, she was a national treasure-level figure in the Star Luo Empire! She enjoyed the same highest treatment as the Hall Master of the Tribute Hall. Who could guarantee that they wouldn't get injured or sick in their lifetime? And this person was truly like the Goddess of Life. In terms of healing ability, she even surpassed Zhuang Yusen of the Sea God Pavilion.
To have even brought her out, no matter how today ended, Huo Yuhao would definitely be famous throughout the continent tomorrow.
The Star Luo Empire had no choice. In the original story, when Xuan Zi disciplined Cheng Gang, he didn't even need to release his martial soul to completely crush him. The impact and destruction were not significant, and Xuan Zi had no killing intent, so Wang Xian'er gave Xuan Zi face and didn't interfere too much. After all, it was indeed Cheng Gang who was bullying a junior, making him in the wrong first.
But Jinpeng was different. His strength was extremely formidable, no weaker than a Rank 97 Super Douluo. If he and Xuan Zi were to fight here, even if they only demolished half of Star Luo City, it would be considered holding back.
Wang Xian'er stepped forward and said, "Xuan Zi, Jinpeng, you've gone too far. You should know that this is the Star Luo Imperial City. Are you not truly planning to start a battle here, or do you think our Star Luo Imperial Family has no one?" As her voice fell, the two people behind her had already released nine soul rings.
Huang Jinxu had two yellow, two purple, and five black soul rings. Cheng Gang had two yellow, three purple, and four black soul rings. Their soul power fluctuations were only that of ordinary Titled Douluo. Cheng Gang was even only Rank 91, the baseline level for Titled Douluo. Admittedly, such strength was nothing to Xuan Zi and Jinpeng.
But the Star Luo Empire had far more Titled Douluo than just these few. Wang Xian'er brought two moderately powerful ones, merely intending to try politeness before resorting to force. Not to mention, with her, the Medical Immortal Douluo, present, the Star Luo Empire's Titled Douluo could all become berserkers who traded injuries for injuries.
Of course, Wang Xian'er didn't want to fight. After all, this battlefield was the Star Luo Imperial City. To start a war here, were they trying to dismantle the capital of the Star Luo Empire?
Xuan Zi cupped his hands and said, "Senior, it's not that I, Xuan Zi, want to cause trouble, but that his Body Sect is too overbearing."
"Alright, I know the situation. I heard your conversation just now." Wang Xian'er looked at Jinpeng and said, "Golden Body Your Excellency, Xuan Zi makes a good point. Just because Huo Yuhao possesses a Body Martial Soul doesn't mean he must belong to your Body Sect. The most important thing is his own will. Can you give this old woman some face and leave today?"
"Since it is Medical Immortal Douluo in person, what harm is there in this old man giving face? However, the matter of Huo Yuhao is not something I can decide. I will return to the sect and report to the Sect Master, and then the Sect Master will make the final decision. Farewell!" With that, Jinpeng flashed away.
Leaving with him were the rustling sounds in the forest. It was clear that earlier, it wasn't just the Star Luo, Body Sect, and Shrek factions; strong individuals from other forces had also been attracted by the Titled Douluo confrontation.
"Thank you for your assistance, Senior." Xuan Zi stepped forward, expressing his gratitude.
"No matter. I assisted not you, but the principle of reason," Wang Xian'er said faintly.
In fact, this was the real reason Jinpeng left directly; he had completed everything he intended to do today. He deliberately appeared at this time to find Huo Yuhao, precisely to draw Xuan Zi over, so that the Sect Master could find Yuwentuo unnoticed. As for Wang Xian'er, she was an unexpected bonus.
Indeed, she stood on Shrek's side today because Shrek was in the right. But later, she would inevitably stand on the Body Sect's side for the same reason.
Meanwhile.
At the hotel where the Sun Moon Imperial Academy was staying, Xiao Hongchen had just returned to his room from the auction house. He, of course, also felt the several powerful Titled Douluo pressures and was curious to go and see, but was immediately rejected by Elder Ma. No matter how talented Xiao Hongchen was, he was currently only a Rank 50-something Soul King. Going to a Super Douluo battlefield where a fight could break out at any moment, was he trying to die? He couldn't even withstand the aftershocks of a Super Douluo battle. If anything happened to him, how would he explain it to the Hall Master?
Xiao Hongchen could only stay in his room, filled with unwillingness, but he swore in his heart that one day, he would go to such battlefields, and even dominate them.
Just then, his room window was suddenly blown open by a strong gust of wind. Xiao Hongchen instinctively walked over to close the window. The moment the window closed tightly, he suddenly felt a pang in his heart.
Slowly turning his head, he saw a burly man standing behind him. Before he could even clearly see his face, a large hand had already reached out and grasped his head.
"Ah!!!"
A scream echoed in the night, immediately alarming the Sun Moon team members and their leading teacher, Elder Ma. They quickly rushed to Xiao Hongchen's room, but unfortunately, they were a step too late.
Xiao Hongchen lay on the ground, stripped bare except for his underpants. The entire room had been ransacked. Fortunately, he was still alive, merely unconscious.
