"Your Majesty, you are overthinking it."
"On what grounds does he rebel? And what does he have to rebel with?"
Yu Xiaogang's voice wasn't loud, but it was full of powerful confidence, as if he were expounding an irrefutable truth.
"A mere Soul Douluo, not even close to becoming a Title Douluo, dares to talk about rebellion?"
"My Heavenly Dou Empire has the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, two of the four upper sects, as allies. Sect Master Ning and my clan leader are both titled Douluo."
There are also several courtiers in the palace; Your Majesty, at your command, who in the world would dare disobey?
He paused, his disdain growing even stronger.
"Moreover, what is Yu Tiange's background? He was just a commoner who only achieved his current status by chance."
"Your Majesty, you must remember that one's birth determines one's potential."
Yu Xiaogang stood with his hands behind his back, speaking eloquently, as if he had returned to his classroom.
"This is just like a Soul Master's first Soul Ring, which has a maximum lifespan of only 423 years. This is a law, a rule, and no one can break it!"
"Just like the ninth spirit ring, only a titled Douluo can attempt to absorb a 100,000-year spirit ring."
"Everyone's life limits are set from the moment they are born."
For a Soul Master of humble origins, even if they exhaust their entire life and all their luck, reaching the Soul Douluo level is already their ultimate goal.
"He will never be able to reach the level of a Title Douluo in his lifetime. This is his limit, his destiny!"
"Why should Your Majesty fear someone who has no future?"
These words enlightened Emperor Xueye, and the last bit of doubt in his heart vanished.
He was overjoyed, and his eyes were full of approval as he looked at Yu Xiaogang.
"Master is indeed amazing! Not only is your theory of Soul Masters unparalleled, but you can also apply it in a practical way, analyzing people's hearts and the current situation. With just a few words, you have enlightened me!"
"A single conversation with you is worth more than ten years of study!"
Upon receiving the emperor's praise, Yu Xiaogang's face revealed a smug smile.
He nodded slightly, his expression arrogant.
"Of course."
"I, Yu Xiaogang, have said long ago that in this world, there are no useless martial souls, only useless soul masters."
"And I, Yu Xiaogang, was born a genius!"
He was full of confidence in himself.
Although his Luo Sanpao is a mutated martial soul, it caused his soul power to stagnate.
But he firmly believed that this was not his problem, but a problem with the martial spirit itself.
He, Yu Xiaogang, will always be that top theoretical genius.
Similarly, that nephew who also possesses the Luo Sanpao martial soul doesn't have the same abilities as me; he's just a piece of trash!
He might have already died in the Douluo Continent.
This is completely different from the oppressive and somber court discourse in Tiandou City.
Outside Gengxin City, the murderous aura was already soaring to the sky.
"Thump! Thump! Thump!"
The heavy and rapid sound of war drums, like the death knell, struck the hearts of everyone present.
Twenty thousand dragon cavalry, their black armor as dark as ink, converged into a mighty torrent of steel.
The leader, Yu Tiange, was clad in black armor with gold patterns and held a dark gold spear. He sat atop an exceptionally robust dragon mount.
His face was stern, and his eyes were calm without a ripple, as if the formidable pass guarded by 100,000 soldiers was nothing more than a pile of clay chickens and earthenware dogs.
"Attack the city!"
With a single command, no further words were exchanged.
"roar--!"
Twenty thousand dragon mounts roared in unison, their roars shaking the earth.
They flapped their enormous fleshy wings, stirring up clouds of dust, and their massive bodies rose from the ground, blotting out the sun.
The 20,000 dragon cavalry did not charge the city gate like ordinary troops, but instead transformed into a huge shadow, leaping over the towering city walls and rushing straight towards the top of the city!
On the city walls, the Star Luo Empire's garrison was instantly thrown into chaos.
"It's an air raid!"
"Archers! Fire! Fire now!"
Arrows rained down, whistling as they shot into the sky, but most were deflected by the heavy armor of the dragon riders and the tough dragon scales of their mounts, making a clanging sound, with little effect.
Amidst the chaos, a golden streak of light, moving at a speed far exceeding that of everyone else, pierced the sky.
Yu Tiange took the lead, like a falling meteor, and landed heavily on the city wall of Gengxin City amidst the horrified gazes of countless Xingluo soldiers.
boom!
The city bricks shattered, and shockwaves surged.
He, Yu Tiange, was the first to ascend!
"Kill him!"
"He's all alone! Surround him!"
After a brief moment of astonishment, the surrounding Star Luo soldiers reacted immediately, roaring as they surged forward from all directions, their gleaming swords, spears, and halberds relentlessly piercing the figure in the center.
Dozens of Soul Master soldiers simultaneously released their Martial Souls, their various colors flashing, and the brilliance of their Soul Skills intertwined to form a net of death.
Faced with this seemingly hopeless situation, Yu Tiange's expression remained unchanged.
He didn't even look at the weapons and soul skills attacking him, but simply uttered four words.
"The Sacred Golden Dragon".
The moment the words fell, an indescribable pressure descended upon them!
hold head high--!
A high-pitched dragon roar, seemingly from the ancient wilderness, resounded through the sky.
A dazzling golden light burst forth from Yu Tiange's body, and a colossal dragon, over thirty meters long and covered in brilliant golden scales, appeared out of thin air atop the city wall!
This is not an illusion, but the true form of a martial spirit that has solidified into reality!
The moment the sacred golden dragon appeared, it simply flicked its tail.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The heavy, muffled sounds continued in unison. The Star Luo soldiers who had surrounded them, whether ordinary people or Soul Masters, were as fragile as paper in the face of that overwhelming power.
Their weapons shattered inch by inch, their bodies were flung away, the sound of bones breaking was deafening, and they turned into puffs of blood mist in mid-air.
With a single strike, not a single Star Luo soldier remained standing within a hundred meters of Yu Tiange.
A vacuum zone was forcibly cleared out on the city wall.
This bloody and domineering scene left everyone stunned.
At the command post on the city tower, the second prince of Xingluo, Davis, saw this scene through the lookout. His pupils suddenly contracted, and his lips trembled slightly.
"So strong!"
Xue Qinghe, who was standing next to him, also known as Qian Renxue, was also deeply shaken.
Her phoenix eyes flashed with a sharp light as she stared intently at the figure standing before the sacred golden dragon.
"The Dragon Riders... are indeed incredibly brave and unstoppable!"
"Your Highness!"
A heavily armored general with a powerful aura suddenly stood in front of Davis, his expression extremely solemn.
He is Dai Chengying, the garrison commander of Gengxin City, the Grand General of the Star Luo Royal Family, and an 87th-level powerful attack-type Soul Douluo.
"We can't hold him off! This person's strength is unfathomable! I'll stop him, you retreat quickly!"
Dai Chengying understood very well what it meant for the head coach to take the field first.
Once Yu Tiange gains a foothold on the city wall, the Dragon Cavalry will continue to pour in, and the city will fall.
