At this moment, in Heaven Dou City of the Heaven Dou Empire.
The self-righteous Yu Xiaogang, the "pure and virtuous" Tang San, and the carefree Xiao Wu.
These three oddballs had just been unceremoniously chased out of a teahouse.
Three versus dozens—the advantage clearly lay with the teahouse's customers.
Thus, Tang San and his companions declared themselves magnanimous.
They chose not to stoop to the level of those ignorant nobles and engage in petty arguments.
The nobles in the teahouse: "..."
Ah, yes, yes, you're absolutely right.
But could you at least wipe the blood off your face before saying that?
Otherwise, your words don't carry much weight!
"Huh, Master Yu, Little San, where is this?"
After being driven out of the teahouse, the group wandered around and eventually arrived at the entrance of a massive building.
Xiao Wu's question made Tang San realize something was off.
"Uh, this kind of building looks really familiar."
"Wait… isn't this the Great Spirit Arena of Heaven Dou City?"
The Great Spirit Arena in Suotuo City of the Balak Kingdom originally covered over a thousand square meters.
After its reconstruction, it expanded to two thousand square meters.
But the colossal, eerily familiar structure before them now spanned a staggering seven thousand square meters.
The difference in size was several times over.
No wonder Xiao Wu and Tang San hadn't recognized it immediately.
Hearing their exchange, Yu Xiaogang—whose face still bore a slap mark—studied the enormous Great Spirit Arena before nodding in confirmation.
"Indeed, Little San, you're right. This massive structure is indeed the Great Spirit Arena of Heaven Dou City."
"Remember, this is Heaven Dou City—the most important and central capital of the Heaven Dou Empire."
"Naturally, its Great Spirit Arena would be far grander than those in other places."
This seven-thousand-square-meter arena was one of Heaven Dou City's most famous entertainment venues, so of course Yu Xiaogang recognized it.
Well, to be precise, he knew all the notable landmarks—the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace, the Heavenly Dou Royal Spirit Master Academy, Heaven Dou City's Great Spirit Arena, its pleasure houses, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
After all, he had lived here for a time during his childhood.
Back then, Yu Xiaogang had won first place in the Heavenly Dou Royal Spirit Master Academy by submitting two essays: "My Dad Is the Leader of an Upper Three Sect" and "My Dad Is the Thunder Douluo."
With his hard work and talent, he had single-handedly dominated every teacher and student in the entire academy.
"Ah, time flies. How things have changed."
Half an hour later, Yu Xiaogang finished recounting his glorious childhood exploits.
Then, with his left hand behind his back and his right fist resting at his waist, he struck a pose.
His expression seemed to be carved with the words: "How lonely it is to be invincible."
After listening to Yu Xiaogang's boastful words, Tang San's face was filled with respect.
Immediately afterward, Tang San also began to flatter him.
"Teacher, the fact that you could dominate the entire Heavenly Dou Royal Spirit Master Academy when you were young is truly incredible."
Xiao Wu: "..."
Hearing their conversation, Xiao Wu's lips twitched violently, and she slightly opened her mouth as if wanting to say something, but ultimately held back.
You already said it yourself—your father is the leader of one of the Upper Three Sects on the Douluo Continent, Yu Yuanzhen, the Titled Thunder Douluo. If you weren't the champion, then who else could be?
Dugu Bo, the Poison Douluo, who dominates the world with his poison.
Yu Yuanzhen, the leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
Bone Douluo Gu Rong and Sword Douluo Chen Xin of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Yunxiao, the leader of the Elf Clan and the Titled Elf Douluo.
Just thinking about how many Titled Douluos were gathered in Heaven Dou City made Xiao Wu recall the Aura Concealing Grass, and she secretly rejoiced in her heart.
"Whew, thank goodness, thank goodness I've already eaten the Aura Concealing Grass."
"Even if I prance around in front of a Titled Douluo, I won't be exposed as a Soul Beast in human form."
"Otherwise, I really wouldn't dare to come to this Heaven Dou City with so many Titled Douluos around."
At that moment, Yu Xiaogang seemed to remember something and spoke to his top disciple, Tang San.
"San, since we've coincidentally arrived at this Great Spirit Arena, why don't we go in and observe the students from other advanced Soul Master Academies?"
The Elephant Armor City, home to the Elephant Armor Advanced Spirit Master Academy.
The Blazing Fire City, home to the Blazing Fire Advanced Spirit Master Academy.
The Thunderclap City, home to the Thunderclap Advanced Spirit Master Academy.
The Heavenly Water City, home to the Heavenly Water Advanced Spirit Master Academy.
The Divine Wind City, home to the Divine Wind Advanced Spirit Master Academy.
Behind these five advanced Soul Master Academies stood five powerful Soul Master family clans and sects.
For example, the Elephant Armor Clan for the Elephant Armor Academy, and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan for the Thunderclap Academy.
The Fire Family for the Blazing Fire Academy, the Wind Family for the Divine Wind Academy, and the Water Family for the Heavenly Water Academy.
Currently, their locations were not only the most important imperial capital of the Heaven Dou Empire but also adjacent to the cities of the five elemental academies on the Douluo Continent.
Because of this, students from these five elemental advanced Soul Master Academies would often come to the Great Spirit Arena in Heaven Dou City to participate in Soul Duels, gaining combat experience in the process.
Of course, apart from these five elemental academies, there was also the Heavenly Dou Royal Spirit Master Academy outside Heaven Dou City, as well as the numerous other advanced Soul Master academies within the city.
Most of the students and teachers from these academies would choose to come here for Soul Duel training.
It had to be said, the Great Spirit Arena was indeed a great place.
Participating in Soul Duels here meant that whether you won or lost, it didn't matter.
After all, all the teachers and students faced no life-threatening danger while gaining vast combat experience.
Moreover, if you were strong enough to maintain a winning streak in the Soul Duels, not only could you earn a decent sum of Gold Soul Coins, but you could also use this opportunity to make a name for yourself across the entire Douluo Continent.
"Alright, Teacher, I'll follow your arrangements."
As a disciple, Tang San naturally wouldn't refuse Yu Xiaogang's arrangements.
Why did their Shrek Academy move from Suotuo City in the Balak Kingdom to the Heavenly Dou City, where experts were as numerous as clouds?
To put it bluntly, it was all to prepare for joining the Heavenly Dou Royal Spirit Master Academy and then participating in the Continental Elite Advanced Spirit Master Tournament two years later.
Soon, under Yu Xiaogang's familiar guidance, the three of them arrived at the Great Spirit Arena.
Just as they took their seats in the open spectator area of the white section, the Spirit Guidance Amplifier in the Great Spirit Arena broadcast a woman's voice.
