I’ve already become a titled Douluo, and only now the system arrives?

Chapter 126: Zhao Wuji vs. Yu Luomian

Deep within the Star Dou Great Forest.

The originally calm surface of the Life Pool suddenly began to boil like boiling water.

This anomaly immediately alarmed Xiao Wu, who was by the Life Pool.

"What's going on?" She looked at the Life Pool with fear and confusion. "Could it be that a powerful enemy has arrived in the Star Dou Great Forest?"

But now, no one could answer her.

Gurgle, gurgle, gurgle.

The water in the lake boiled even more intensely.

Finally, at a certain moment, it reached a critical point.

Boom!

A water column several tens of meters high shot up into the sky.

Then, a huge body stretching tens of meters long appeared in front of Xiao Wu.

There was no doubt that it was the Azure Bull Python.

"Daming, what happened to you?"

"Aren't you in seclusion?"

Xiao Wu asked with concern.

"Erming, I sensed Erming's aura again, not far from here just now," the Azure Bull Python replied in a deep voice.

"Erming?"

Xiao Wu's emotions suddenly became complicated, and then fear climbed onto her face, occupying all expressions.

"Could it be, could it be that Qin Xiao, he, has come again?"

"Could it be that his target this time is you?"

"Daming, you have to go, you have to leave quickly."

Xiao Wu hurriedly shouted, asking Daming to leave.

Undoubtedly, in her consciousness, she didn't think that Daming could defeat Qin Xiao.

She had already lost Erming. If she lost Daming as well, Xiao Wu felt like her world would collapse.

"Xiao Wu, calm down a bit."

Daming's voice echoed over the Life Pool.

"What's the point of staying so calm at this time?"

Xiao Wu's face was full of anxiety. "Daming, listen to me. Now is not the time for nonsense. You leave now, I'll stay and stop Qin Xiao. If he comes for soul rings, I'll give them to him. If he wants soul bones, I'll grant his wish. I'll protect you no matter what."

Xiao Wu's voice was firm and resolute.

"Sigh."

Daming sighed, and said leisurely, "Xiao Wu, calm down a bit. That human named Qin Xiao has already left."

"Gone?"

Xiao Wu was stunned.

After all, he had come all this way, and now he was leaving just like that?
It gave her a feeling like a guest coming to your house, stepping in the door with one foot and turning around to leave with the other.

He really treated the Star Dou Great Forest as his own home?

"But, what was his purpose this time?" Xiao Wu asked puzzled.

Daming remained silent for a moment before slowly saying two words, "Soul hunting!"

"Soul hunting?"

Xiao Wu was taken aback.

That didn't make sense.

Since he came for soul hunting, there was even less reason for him to let them go.

Seeing Xiao Wu's puzzled expression, Daming explained, "Qin Xiao made his move to kill the Dark Demon Evil Tiger, a soul beast that can compete with a hundred-thousand-year-old powerhouse with just over sixty thousand years of cultivation!"

"What? The Dark Demon Evil Tiger?"

Surprise appeared on Xiao Wu's pretty face. "Is it the one that escaped from you and Erming before, the one that acted alone?"

Daming nodded his massive bull head.

"Yes, that guy!"

"Sigh."

"I really don't know how that guy Qin Xiao did it."

As he spoke, Daming couldn't help but sigh. "Back then, both Erming and I didn't like that guy, but he had a soul skill called Life and Death Arena, which was very mysterious. It could pull him and a designated opponent back to childhood and engage in a life-and-death duel."

"It can be said that under this soul skill, the significance of whether the opponent is a hundred thousand years old or ten thousand years old doesn't matter much. It depends on how strong you were when you were young. And the Dark Demon Evil Tiger's childhood, whether it's me, the Azure Bull Python, or Erming, the Titan Giant Ape, couldn't possibly be its opponent."

Hearing this, Xiao Wu's face showed shock. "Are you saying that Qin Xiao, at the age of three or four, was stronger than us soul beasts... no, stronger than the Dark Demon Evil Tiger?"

大明 tugged at the corner of his mouth, "Although it's hard to accept, it's the truth. Qin Xiao is indeed powerful, not like an ordinary person."

"If it weren't for him hunting soul beasts for soul rings, I would suspect Qin Xiao is also one of our transformed soul beasts."

Xiao Wu widened her mouth and nodded instinctively, "This guy is indeed not ordinary."

"Sigh." Da Ming sighed again suddenly, "If I had known this day would come, that I would provoke such a powerful enemy, I would never have let you transform into the human world back then. Even if you were unhappy, it would be better than risking your life at any moment like this."

"This, this..."

Xiao Wu pinched her clothes' hem, her face showing a complicated expression.

After a long time.

She sighed softly, "Da Ming, to be honest, I regret it too. I regretted it from the moment Er Ming died."

"I also regret leaving Shrek Academy with His Highness Tang San. If I had stayed by Qin Xiao's side, when he needed me, sacrificing myself to become a soul ring, would Er Ming still have to die?"

It must be said that Er Ming's death had become a pain in Xiao Wu's heart.

During this time, she had even stopped practicing, immersed in endless regret every day.

She thought about a lot of things.

If she hadn't made those wrong choices back then, at worst, it would have cost her own life.

Time flies.

In the blink of an eye, two days had passed.

On the main street of Tian Dou City, Zhu Zhuqing could already see the sign of Blue Tyrant Academy.

"We're almost at the academy. I wonder if His Highness and Yiran have returned."

Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but say.

Beside her, Flender comforted, "Don't worry, with His Highness's strength, he'll definitely find Yiran. Maybe he's already waiting for us at the academy."

At these words, Zhu Zhuqing's eyes lit up, "Then, Teacher Zhao, I'll go back to our residence first."

"Go ahead."

Flender nodded, then he also returned to the academy.

With such a significant improvement in strength, the first thing Zhao Wuji wanted to do was to inform Flender.

If he couldn't show off and make his brothers jealous, what was the point of improving his strength?

"Hehe, if Flender knew that I had advanced to the Soul Douluo level several steps earlier than him, I wonder how he would feel?"

Zhao Wuji thought, filled with anticipation.

After entering the academy, he almost didn't stop at all and headed straight for the back courtyard of the academy, where Liu Erlong's residence was located.

Of course.

Zhao Wuji had no other intention.

Wasn't it just because Flender always went to Liu Erlong's place for no reason?

He would definitely find Flender there.

On the other side.

In front of Liu Erlong's wooden house, Flender had a smile on his face, "Senior Yu, Erlong said she doesn't want to see you for now. Should I ask you to wait a little longer?"

In front of him stood none other than the former second in command of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and now the clan leader, Yu Luomian.

"Flender, step aside."

However, Yu Luomian's expression was serious at this moment.

Faced with Flender's obstruction, his brows furrowed even more.

"Senior Yu," Flender stood his ground, "I can't obey your command."

He obviously intended to stand as the last line of defense for Liu Erlong.

"Then you're forcing my hand."

A trace of anger flashed in Yu Luomian's eyes.

He couldn't help but want to take action.

The pressure belonging to a level 86 Soul Douluo was about to erupt.

But just then, from behind him came a surprised shout:

"Flender, I knew you'd be here."

Turning at the sound, Flender was also stunned, "Old Zhao? You're back?"

Then.

Looking at Yu Luomian in front of him, he quickly gave Zhao Wuji a meaningful look, signaling him to leave quickly.

But it seemed like Zhao Wuji didn't understand, he strode over like nothing happened.

In fact, Zhao Wuji wasn't stupid. He naturally noticed the tense atmosphere between Flender and another person. Although the other party hadn't shown any soul rings, the aura emanating from him was far stronger than Flender's.

Faced with such a formidable enemy, he couldn't just leave Flender alone here.

Brothers shouldn't be treated like that!

Soon, Zhao Wuji arrived beside Flender.

"Old Zhao, this is the second in command of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Senior Yu Luomian."

Without waiting for Zhao Wuji to speak, Flender blurted out his introduction.

So he was the second

 in command of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. With his strong aura, Zhao Wuji wasn't surprised. He first froze for a moment, then his face broke into a smile, "So you're a senior from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. My apologies for my rudeness. I am Zhao Wuji, pleased to meet you."

"Hmph, spare me those empty words. Now, get out of my way."

"Even if another immovable vajra like Zhao Wuji comes, don't think you can stop me from seeing Erlong."

Yu Luomian clearly wasn't buying it.

In his eyes, Zhao Wuji had received wind of it and had come to cheer for Flender.

But, was he afraid?

He had long understood the strength of Shrek Academy.

None of the teachers in the entire academy were Soul Douluo-level powerhouses.

The Dean, Flender, was a Soul Saint of level seventy-eight.

The Vice Dean, Zhao Wuji, was a Soul Saint of level seventy-six.

Even if the two were combined, they couldn't possibly be opponents for him, a Soul Douluo with the top-tier beast martial soul, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon.

"Senior, since we're at this point, then we'll have to have a little showdown."

Zhao Wuji's eyes lit up; a fight was a good thing.

He had originally thought of finding a Soul Douluo-level powerhouse to spar with.

And here it was?

It really was the saying: when you're sleepy, the pillow comes, fulfilling your wishes.

As for the fact that the opponent's cultivation was higher than his, and his martial soul quality was higher than the Titan Giant Ape, did Zhao Wuji care?

If the opponent's strength wasn't strong, where was the challenge?

"Old Zhao, what are you saying?"

Flender glared at Zhao Wuji, couldn't he see that Yu Luomian was itching for a fight?
Wasn't he just adding fuel to the fire?

Then, he hurriedly looked at Yu Luomian with a smile, "Senior, Zhao Wuji is young and ignorant, and he speaks without thinking. Please don't take it to heart."

However, Yu Luomian wasn't appreciative. A cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "At such an age, he's still ignorant. I think he's just ignorant of the heights of heaven and earth. Today, I'll teach him how to behave and tell him what's the respect for elders and juniors in the world of soul masters?"

As he spoke, the formidable pressure of his soul power erupted.

Boom!

A deafening roar, like a mountain collapsing, echoed in the ears of Flender and Zhao Wuji.

Zhao Wuji wasn't surprised but delighted, with a look of pleasant surprise on his face, "Boss Flender, let me handle this."

But Flender was one step ahead of him, blocking Zhao Wuji in front of him, and with a push of his hand, he pushed Zhao Wuji back three or five meters away.

"Soul Douluo powerhouses aren't that easy to deal with. You have no place to intervene here. Just stay obediently on the side."

Flender didn't even look back as he said to Zhao Wuji.

Hmm, being disregarded, Zhao Wuji was dumbfounded.

However, Flender's actions still warmed his heart.

Indeed, as the boss, he acted when necessary.

"Martial Soul Possession!"

Flender shouted in a deep voice, transforming into the form of a Cat Hawk.

At the same time, seven flashing soul rings appeared under his feet.

"Hmph, overestimating your abilities!"

Yu Luomian snorted coldly and also instantly activated his Martial Soul.

Roar!
A dragon roar shook the surroundings.

Yu Luomian also completed his Martial Soul Possession, and his entire aura rose significantly.

The eight soul rings, with a perfect combination of yellow, purple, and black, made Flender feel immense pressure.

"I'll repeat myself."

"Get out of the way!"

When Yu Luomian said these two words, they were almost roared out.

This sound, like a dragon's roar, contained powerful soul force.

For a moment, even Flender felt a bit dazed, and he took several steps back in succession.

Fortunately, Zhao Wuji's hand fell on his shoulder, helping him withstand the pressure.

"Hmph, Shrek Academy, is just this."

"A Soul Saint is just a Soul Saint after all. No matter how strong a Soul Saint is, they are insignificant in front of a Soul Douluo powerhouse!"

Yu Luomian glanced coldly at Flender, his disdain undisguised.

"You..."

Flender's face turned red with anger.

Thinking about the just now daze, he didn't know what to say.

In the face of absolute strength, no matter how many words are said, they are all pale.

"Hmph, what's wrong with being a Soul Douluo? Aren't Soul Douluo also human? What's so great about them?"

At this moment, Zhao Wuji snorted angrily.

Upon hearing this, Yu Luomian chuckled, "Hehe, such arrogance. Soul Douluo are indeed nothing special, but people like you, who aren't even Soul Douluo, what do you count for?"

After hearing Yu Luomian's words, Zhao Wuji placed Flender behind

 him with one hand, then said to Yu Luomian, "I can give you a chance to reorganize your words."

"Old Zhao, don't act rashly."

Flender hurriedly spoke out behind Zhao Wuji, fearing that Yu Luomian would take action against Zhao Wuji.

But.

Zhao Wuji ignored Flender's words.

He smiled at Yu Luomian and said, "Hehe, in my eyes, Soul Douluo are also two-legged people, nothing special. Getting hit hurts, bleeding when injured."
