December, first day.
The mountains gather together, the clouds roll and relax, the warm sunshine shines on the earth, and the early winter wind feels cool and comfortable.
In the stone-paved circular square with a diameter of 100 meters, the center is empty, and the surrounding is divided into multiple areas, with people's heads moving around. The bright red carpet crossed the square, went straight forward along the aisle, and entered a huge building nearly twenty meters high. The walls were gray and simple, but majestic and extraordinary.
On the left side of the steps near the gate, eight young men and women dressed in black stood side by side.
The leading man was tall and tall, wearing leather black armor with seams connected by unknown gray-white metal. Her long black hair was tied behind her head, and the two strands of hair in front of her forehead were parted in the middle, dancing in the wind. The mouth and nose were covered by a black mask, revealing only the blue twins that were as clear as the stars.
Although he couldn't see his expression clearly, the awe-inspiring sense of majesty between his brows emerged spontaneously.
On the left side of the man, there are seven enchanting girls with black veils on their faces standing in sequence.
Black clothes with waist and neck will cover up the beauty and highlight the curves. Stockings, elbow-length gloves, and white shoulders exposed, shining in the sun. The seams of the clothes are also connected by unknown gray-white metal. The slight difference is that four of the girls have four knee-length skirts connected to their waists, and the other three wear leather shorts with scale armor on both sides of their hips and waists. Looks extremely capable.
On the right side of the steps, Shui Liuliu and his wife stand side by side.
"Fat man, this is not on the street. Don't look around, otherwise I won't be able to protect you." Flanders, who was sitting at the back of the square, glanced at the seats in front of him, the Hall of Spirits, the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect, and the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Family. , the imperial royal family, major high-level soul master academies, as well as large and small unfamiliar sects and family forces, all had flags behind them, and those sitting in the middle were all high-level officials of the major forces. Thinking of Ma Hongjun's suicide attempt last time, he turned around uneasily and lowered his voice to remind him.
"Dean, how dare I..." Ma Hongjun lowered his head slightly, glanced around secretly, and responded in a low voice.
Just glancing at Lin Manshan on the steps made him feel a little guilty, let alone the elders around him.
"It's good that you know." Flanders nodded slightly, then turned around and swept the square. He couldn't help but sigh, "As expected of a titled Douluo, he just has a reputation. All the prestigious forces in the Tiandou Empire are probably here. .”
"And it's been so long, and the real master hasn't appeared yet..." Dai Mubai curled his lips and couldn't help but interrupt. From the time he entered the venue until everyone gathered, Dugu Bo never showed up.
"It's coming soon..." For a grand ceremony like this, doesn't it have to be a bit suspenseful and have a show to support the scene? Friend understood. Drink tea lightly and stop talking.
After a while, "Huh?" He suddenly raised his head, the clouds in the sky were rolling rapidly, and the temperature of the surrounding air was plummeting.
In the square, all the top leaders of the forces raised their heads almost at the same time, looking up with different expressions.
Some are surprised, some are solemn, and some are confused.
"Is it going to rain?" Ma Hongjun turned around and asked as he looked at the darkening clouds above his head.
"No, it's the Lord who has come out." Dai Mubai kept raising his head and responded solemnly.
Ma Hongjun was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened and he looked up at the sky blankly, "Isn't it?!"
There was silence, everyone was looking up at the sky.
Soon, as far as the eye could see, the entire sky darkened, and even the air became a little moist.
The next second, "Roar!" a dragon roar suddenly exploded.
The clouds above the head rolled like ocean waves, and blue scales were looming, as if a giant dragon was swimming and tumbling among them.
A few breaths later, a huge ferocious dragon head suddenly poked out from the clouds. The lantern-like vertical boy shone with a coquettish brilliance, looking down at everyone. Immediately, the thirty-meter-long dragon body swam out inch by inch, its fins floating unnaturally, as if it was not the sky but the ocean.
The next second, the drizzle became sparse and fell.
To be able to control the celestial image... the faces of everyone present changed, and most of them had expressions of disbelief.
Lin Manshan looked at the expressions of everyone on the field and smiled slightly under his mask. Strictly speaking, only the Advanced Soul Master Academy area has been completed now. The other areas are still far away from completion. The Advanced Soul Master Academy area is surrounded by forests. There is a river passing by. Since the evolution of martial arts, Dugu Bo has awakened the talent to control the water element. However, after all, it is just a basic talent brought by a fairy grass, and the effect is indeed a bit weak. Even after several months of familiarity and development, the level of control has improved, but it is still far from being able to cast clouds and rain at will.
The current scene was the result of Dugu Bo spending several days in advance to draw the surrounding water vapor into the sky, forming a large number of clouds, and finally inducing it on the spot.
But what about specially prepared ones? No one saw it! Judging from people's reaction now, the effect is pretty good. Some things, no matter whether they are true or not, just need someone to believe them.
The next moment, "Roar..." a dragon roar resounded, and the dragon that had circled in the air for several times suddenly turned its head and turned into a ray of green light and dived towards the center of the square.
"So fast!" Ning Fengzhi Tongren couldn't help but flinch and turned to look at Sword Douluo. Sword Douluo frowned and shook his head slightly. After all, the weapon soul is a weapon soul. Even if it has the flying soul skill, in terms of speed and durability, it cannot compare with the top beast martial soul with its own flying talent. This is the gap caused by the nature of the martial soul.
There is no doubt that when comparing speed in the air, there is still a certain gap between him and Dugu Bo today.
"Huh..." The green light fell straight down, suddenly stopped three fingers away from the ground, and turned into a tall figure suspended in the air. Immediately, his toes slowly touched the ground.
This kind of soul power control... Ning Fengzhi's expression suddenly became more solemn, and at the next moment, a blue light flashed across the lake in his sight. In just a blink of an eye, Dugu Bo's figure was already standing not far away from Lin Manshan. In the middle of the steps, he slowly turned around and faced everyone.
"This speed!" His expression suddenly changed dramatically. Even if it flies fast in the air, it is so fast on the ground that it is almost impossible to kill as long as you don't use force.
Coupled with the group poison attack, this is too scary... All the high-ranking officials present thought so.
"Thank you all for giving me Dugu Bo face and coming to watch the ceremony on the day when the college was built." Dugu Bo spoke without any politeness. He opened his mouth and said very casually, "Everyone must know my temper, so I won't be polite."
Nodding slightly, "I think you must be full of doubts in your hearts and want to know why my martial spirit has changed like this." After saying that, he turned to look at Lin Manshan, "I have to thank my grandson-in-law Lin Manshan for this."
"It was him who helped me get rid of the soul ring poison that brought about this change. As early as three years ago, my grandson-in-law met my Yan'er..." As he said this, Lin Manshan mentioned the detoxification process he had done at that time. Talk about it.
"My family has gone through several generations, and finally ended up in the miserable situation of withering people, all because they didn't know the source of the toxins and neglected to take precautions. There are not a few soul masters in this world who have poisonous beast spirits. Today I will give my grandson-in-law's This detoxification talk is made public, and I hope there will be fewer unlucky ghosts like me in the soul master world in the future." Dugu Bo finished speaking seriously, and then his style suddenly changed, "Ahem, of course, if there is Those who have been poisoned are welcome to bring medicine and come to the academy to find me."
"..."
I thought you were quite righteous at first, but I didn't expect that you were just gathering herbs. Everyone's expressions suddenly froze.
Out of the corner of his eye, he couldn't help but glance at Lin Manshan, all secretly sighing at Dugu Bo's good luck. The granddaughter went out and picked up a son-in-law who was extremely talented in medical skills. He also detoxified the poison on his body and his martial spirit evolved. The key is that the grandson-in-law's cultivation talent is also amazing, and they are all aware of his outstanding performance in the Great Soul Fighting Arena of Tiandou City.
No one else has this kind of luck.
Dugu Bo is indeed short of medicine. It seems that Lin Manshan is refining the elixirs to assist his cultivation. There is indeed a huge demand for medicinal herbs... Ning Fengzhi thought to himself.
"As for why my martial spirit changed like this after the detoxification, now that the toxins in my body have been absorbed and the source of the toxins is known, there is no need to keep this secret. There is no harm in telling you." Dugu Bo said in a clear voice, "The reason In fact, it is very simple, because my ancestors in this lineage once obtained a rare treasure when they were traveling abroad, and after taking it, the martial soul evolved once."
"That is my current martial soul form, with the water attribute of the Jade Phosphorus Dragon King."
"It's just that as the toxins in the body continued to accumulate, it degenerated again. Now that the toxins have been eliminated, the martial spirit has returned to the form of its ancestors. To be honest, I didn't expect it." At this point, he shrugged very Versailles, " All I can say is that I am lucky."
After saying that, he took out a book from the soul guide and said, "As for the rare treasure that allowed the martial soul of our ancestors to evolve, it doesn't hurt to tell everyone. Its name is Ninth-Rank Longzhi, one for ten thousand years, and a ninth-grade That’s ninety thousand years. Rumor has it that it was born by bathing in dragon blood, and it has the miraculous effect of improving the dragon’s bloodline. Our jade phosphorus snake is also one of the dragon species, so after taking it, it can evolve into the jade phosphorus dragon emperor.”
"Of course, according to records, after taking it, it can also greatly increase the soul power level, improve the cultivation qualifications, and allow the soul master to practice rapidly. It can be said to have endless wonderful uses."
"There is such a magical thing in the world!?" Everyone at the VIP table was suddenly shocked, and their hearts were filled with excitement.
After hearing this, all the disciples from the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus family's seats became even more red-eyed. Their blue electric Tyrannosaurus rex martial spirit is a serious dragon-like martial spirit. If they can get this magical medicine, they will take off immediately.
Ninth-grade Longzhi, if I could get it... Yu Xiaogang's face flushed, and his heart was full of desire.
"Xiao San, is there any record of this thing in your ancient books?" Flanders quickly turned his head and asked in a low voice.
"Yes, the introductions are basically the same." Tang San responded with a frown on his face, wanting to scold his mother in his heart.
Dugu Bo unexpectedly disclosed such valuable information to the outside world. Everyone knew it. Wouldn't there be countless people searching for fairy grass in the future? Wouldn't the chance that my father would ask someone to help me find the fairy grass be greatly reduced? Thinking of this, his face suddenly darkened.
"In addition, there is actually more than one kind of rare treasure like this." As he spoke, Dugubo shook the book in his hand, "I don't know about the others. Anyway, our clan has recorded nearly twenty kinds. As long as the martial spirit and physique match, Each of them has the qualifications to become a titled Douluo. To be honest, I have been looking for these rare treasures for decades, hoping to remove toxins from the body."
“Nearly twenty species!
? "Everyone was shocked and stared blankly at the book in Dugu Bo's hand.
"However, you have also seen the result. Anyway, I didn't find it. Otherwise, my family wouldn't be like this now, and I wouldn't have to rely on my grandson-in-law to detoxify." A hint of helplessness flashed across his face, and Dugu Bo suddenly changed the topic again, and he said calmly. Said: "Ever since my granddaughter and I evolved our martial souls, I know that many of you must be speculating on the reasons. I have been on the mainland for decades. Don't I know about your little thoughts?"
"You all must know my personality. I never like trouble. So, today I will explain the matter clearly in front of everyone, so that everyone can save trouble."
"As for this book, I will auction it in public at the dinner party later, and whoever pays more will take it."
"And it's a one-time buyout. You can go to whoever buys it and take it home. Don't bother me anymore in the future."
"Wow!" There was an uproar in the square.
At the auction, Dugu Bo directly put the information on the fairy grass up for auction... Ning Fengzhi was a little confused. He had talked with Tang Yuehua for a long time about the fairy grass information before, but in the end he only got four kinds of fairy grass information, two of which were suitable for him. Two types are suitable for Haotian Sect, and the one without a method of taking it. Once found, the Haotian Sect must be notified so that they can carry out equal-value transactions so that everyone can have what they need.
Although he was a bit passive here, the other party was the Haotian Sect after all, so there was nothing he could do about it.
And now, you can actually buy it with money?
In addition, there are nearly twenty kinds of fairy grass, but Tang Yuehua only told him four kinds. This was obviously to deal with him, and his expression suddenly turned ugly.
On the other side, Dugu Bo continued: "Anyway, my martial spirit has evolved now and the poison has been cured. It won't be of much use if I keep this book now. And I haven't found it for decades, to be honest. , I really don’t believe that any of you can find it, anyway, I have given up hope. I estimate that these rare and rare herbs recorded in it have been plundered by predecessors. "
"However, everything has a contingency, right? The continent is so big, such as the Star Forest and the Far North. Human beings have not been able to fully explore places like this. So, what if we find it? This generation is looking for If not, we can let the next generation find it. As long as we find one plant, there will be one more Titled Douluo in that family. Therefore, the value of this book is still not small."
Saying good morning, he opened the book in front of everyone and said casually, "Come, let me read it to everyone. If you are wise, you can also check the authenticity. The most sacred flower, lovesickness red... the king of fairy grass , Qiluo tulip...poison of extreme heat, fiery apricots and vegetables...poison of extreme cold, star anise ice grass...sacred body-building product, strange velvet and celestial chrysanthemum..."
Everyone listened with ardent eyes, dumbfounded, expressions of disbelief appeared on their faces one by one, "Hiss..." From time to time, they took in a breath of cold air to warm the air.
After talking about eight kinds in a row, Dugu Bo finally stopped, "That's all for the time being. I have omitted the method of removing and taking it. I would like to remind you carefully that if it is removed or taken improperly, the medicine will be destroyed at least, and the body will be damaged at worst. die."
The meaning is very obvious, you will know it once you buy it.
"What a terrifying medicinal effect. No wonder each strain can create a titled Douluo. It's simply outrageous."
"No wonder Ju Douluo can cultivate to the level of Titled Douluo. The strange and velvet giant chrysanthemum is also an immortal grass. This is enough to get a glimpse of it. I'm afraid these rare and rare herbs are all real."
"Some of them are so poisonous that they can even kill a titled Douluo. If there is no way to remove them, who would dare to touch them?"
"That's why I have to buy this book."
"..." There was a lot of discussion in the square.
There are several kinds that I can take... Tang San's face was terrifyingly gloomy, and he was extremely angry inside.
At the same time, Tang Yuehua and Tang Hao, who were hiding in the darkness of the forest on one side, had gloomy and ugly expressions.
Of course, the fewer people who know about a magical thing like fairy grass, the better, but now... Dugu Bo is really hateful!
Qiluo Tulip, the book in Dugu Bo's hand actually contains a detailed introduction to Qiluo Tulip... Ning Fengzhi's eyes suddenly brightened, "Moreover, the divine flower, Lovesickness Red, may also be able to solve the defects of the Qibao Glazed Pagoda. "Thinking of this, my heart couldn't help but feel hot.
Buy it, you must buy it.
Even if it's a bit hot, it's still better than buying it from other forces, especially Wuhun Palace.
While thinking, he couldn't help but look at Ghost Douluo sitting next to Platinum Bishop Salas on the other side.
They all grow in my garden. There are also a few that are freshly prepared from rare herbs. If you can find them, I lose... Dugu Bo sneered secretly. Since I have chosen to announce it, of course I have to say more. If there are too few, outsiders may still suspect that he has them all. But there are nearly twenty kinds, and no one would believe it if I told them. This is the effect you want!
"Ahem..." After waiting for Shaoqing, seeing that everyone was still discussing, Dugubo coughed lightly, attracting everyone's attention, and continued: "Okay, I have explained what needs to be explained about the martial soul. Next, Let me introduce to you the Tianxing Academy I founded. The reason why I founded this academy is actually simple. On one side, my grandson-in-law wants to participate in the Soul Master Competition. Is that right? There are enough people. Secondly, I Now that the poison in the body has been eliminated, my granddaughter has found a home, and her wish is basically fulfilled."
Lin Manshan glanced at Lin Manshan from the corner of his eye, "The next step is to take care of my great-grandson in old age. I only have one granddaughter, and of course my great-grandson wants to teach by himself in the future. So, I might as well build my own academy, and then take over the junior high school and high school level soul master colleges to teach and educate People can also be considered as accumulating some virtue for future generations."
"As for the enrollment of the academy, both noble soul masters and civilian soul masters can join, and the academy will treat them equally and take them seriously. Therefore, some aristocratic children who are used to being arrogant should not come to my academy to hang around. In order to avoid being kicked out and losing face to your family. As for the college’s enrollment time, we will not recruit students for the time being. We will wait until the end of the Soul Master Competition."
"There is another thing that I hope you will keep in mind." His tone was suddenly solemn, "I created this academy only to educate people, and I do not want to be an enemy of anyone or any force. Students can stay or leave at will during their studies, and they can choose by themselves after graduation. Joining any force is entirely voluntary. Graduation season is approaching, and I won’t care even if you hold banners at the entrance of my college to recruit people. However, as long as the students are still studying in the college for one day, the college will be responsible to the end."
"So, you'd better not make any small moves in front of me, and don't think that I'm easy to bully now that I'm worried about you. Repaying kindness with kindness and never repaying hatred overnight has always been my style. If someone dares to take the initiative to provoke, Ha..." After finishing his words, he pointed with his right hand.
"Roar!" A dragon roar suddenly sounded, and a huge dragon body with a diameter of nearly two meters and a height of nearly five meters suddenly rose behind Dugu Bo. The ferocious dragon raised its head to the sky and opened its huge mouth. The green breath quickly condensed above its lips and teeth. A huge drop of water with a diameter of more than one meter soon formed, and terrifying power burst out from it, along with a faint fishy smell, which changed the expressions of everyone present.
"I have not only evolved my martial soul now, but my life poison has also been strengthened. If this bead explodes at high altitude and turns into rainwater and falls to the ground, the radius of a kilometer will be destroyed in an instant. I have absolute confidence. , those below the title Douluo will die if touched."
Within a kilometer range, below the Titled Douluo, anyone who touches it will die... all the guests felt their cervical vertebrae were cold.
Then he saw Dugu Bo looking around at everyone and said quietly, "If we encounter windy and rainy weather like just now, oh, I can't predict how far this poison will be carried by the wind."
After saying that, he clenched his right fist, and the dragon behind him opened his mouth violently, swallowed the huge poisonous bead in one gulp, and then dissipated.
There was silence in the square.
Dugu Bo has demonstrated before that he can completely induce the celestial images and bring about wind and rain by himself, so...
The current Dugu Bo is absolutely capable of annihilating any force on the mainland overnight, and even has the power to destroy a country... Everyone present has this thought in their hearts. In this year's season, is there any place on the mainland where this is not possible? When it's windy or rainy, as long as Dugu Bo is willing, he can squat wherever he wants, and poison can float wherever he wants. It's almost impossible to prevent him!
He can fly, run, is extremely fast, and has strong soul control skills. Who can stop him from leaving?
The mellowness of this soul power is probably no less than that of a level 95 titled Douluo... The three super Douluo present, Sword Douluo, Tang Hao, and Ghost Douluo, recalled the terrifying power exuded by the green poison beads in the air, and their expressions Extremely solemn.
You must not provoke...all the top leaders of the forces thought so.
There are several factions present including the imperial royal family, Shangsan Sect, and Wuhun Palace. Unless they are able to destroy them alone, if one side provokes the other side, the consequences will be a nightmare.
Moreover, can it really be killed?
Recalling Dugu Bo's previous performance, everyone asked themselves, they were not sure!
I'm afraid only His Majesty the Pope or the Grand Priest can take action personally. Yue Guan and I's martial soul fusion skills probably disappeared before we could activate them, so they won't have any effect... Ghost Douluo glanced out of the corner of his eye and stood in Salas. Next to him, Su Yuntao, whose face turned pale, was thinking, "That kid Lin Manshan has a pretty good impression of Wuhun Palace. He has a grudge against Yu Xiaogang, and Ning Rongrong studied in Yu Xiaogang's college, so he received this The impact is probably not very good on the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus family and the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect."
"To be on the safe side, it's best to stabilize the good impression first and then try to sow discord based on the situation."
"After the party, bring Su Yuntao up to meet Lin Manshan..." Thinking of Lin Manshan's terrifying talent in medicine, Ghost Douluo couldn't help but think of his good friend Ju Douluo, "If it hadn't happened back then, say Maybe that guy from Yueguan will be able to chat with the father-in-law and son-in-law in front of him and become good friends to discuss medical science. Well, I will have to take the opportunity to resolve the previous grudges later. "
Yu Xiaogang is so stupid, he can really cause trouble for the family wherever he goes... The blue electric Tyrannosaurus Rex family seat, the person in charge who led the team to watch the ceremony was itching for popularity.
Offending Dugu Bo's grandson-in-law, isn't this equivalent to offending Dugu Bo as well?
The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family's residence is in a valley, surrounded by water, and rainy weather is common throughout the year. If Dugu Bo wants to mess with them, a poisonous pearl will explode, and everyone except the sect leader will suffer.
When a person is sitting at home, the pot comes from the sky. The sect leader has been unlucky for eight lifetimes to give birth to such a son. And they followed the bad luck.
A martial soul ability like Dugu Bo's is like a super bomb hanging on his head, and it's the kind that can't be taken off. Who wouldn't be afraid if it's placed on his head?
Ning Fengzhi of the Qibao Glazed Sect also felt that Yu Xiaogang was mentally retarded. From the corner of his eye, he glanced at Yu Xiaogang sitting in the seat of Lanba Academy and felt that his eyelids were jumping. Moreover, it was an unreasonable disaster. The three sects were connected with the same spirit. , this fire is burning on him inexplicably now. After all, Yu Xiaogang is the leading teacher of Team Shrek, and his daughter is in Team Shrek. From a certain perspective, the relationship between the two is that of teacher and student, which will definitely affect Lin Manshan's first impression of the sect. And it’s definitely not a good impression.
If it weren't for Tang San, a twin martial soul owner with amazing potential, in Shrek Academy, he really wanted to take his daughter away right now. Innately full of soul power, martial soul Lan Yincao, and the son of Tang Hao. He didn't even have to think about it, Tang San definitely had a second martial spirit, and it was also the Clear Sky Hammer. In terms of talent and qualifications, even if Lin Manshan solves the problem of cultivation qualifications, it will be difficult to compare.
This is why he is still willing to let his daughter continue to stay in the Shrek team.
However, Lin Manshan couldn't give up on the good relationship. Now Dugu Bo was too great a threat to the sect, and it couldn't be solved... Ning Fengzhi felt a headache.
It seems that I have to find an opportunity to get close to Lin Manshan... the royal seat, Xue Qinghe said secretly.
If she could win over Dugu Bo through Lin Manshan's connections, it would definitely be better than thousands of troops, and Emperor Xueye would be more confident in handing over the throne to her.
"The First Clan"
Maybe it would be good to add poison to the Bluesilver Grass Spirit... Seeing Dugu Bo, who possesses a poison-attribute spirit, display his power and overwhelm all the forces present, Tang San couldn't help but yearn for it, "I've only absorbed it now." With three soul rings, the poison attached to the martial soul is certainly weak. But if more soul rings are added in the future, and the soul rings are older, the toxins may accumulate to a terrifying level, and the poison may be released like Dugu Bo's. A poisonous attack with a wide range has the power to threaten an entire sect and a country."
How could Lin Manshan, a child of twelve years old, have any foresight, and how could he see the future potential of adding poisonous attributes? When it comes to using poison, who can be better than me, the Tang Clan... I thought this firmly in my heart.
"Okay, let's finish the business. Then, I will announce that Tianxing Academy is officially established." As Dugu Bo shouted loudly, large fireworks suddenly shot out from both sides of the door. Shuiziliu and his wife smiled and opened the red silk . Seeing this, the top leaders of the forces such as Gui Douluo, Ning Fengzhi, and Xue Qinghe, who were in the front seats, stood up and came forward to congratulate them, and participated in the ribbon-cutting together with Dugu Bo.
After the ribbon-cutting was over, the water flowing beside him said clearly, "Next, all the distinguished guests are invited to take a seat in the hall."
For the opening ceremony of the college, Dugu Bo also borrowed many people from the Royal Family's Department of Etiquette and prepared a series of programs. By the time the show ends, it will be almost dinner time, and by then, the party will really begin.
The sound of water flowing by itself fell, and two rows of young girls walked out of the house one by one, guiding everyone into the hall with smiling faces.
All the forces in the square also stood up and entered the hall one by one to sit down.
