Chapter 1341: Dragon Crystal, Get!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

From their perspective, the Star Luo Empire could not lose this match no matter what. If victory was obtained by winning three out of five matches, then Tang Wulin would win the entire competition with another match and that too at a score of three to zero. Even if the Star Luo Empire won the final two matches, it would still seem like Tang Wulin had won the overall battle.

The condition of winning five consecutive battles was already unfair. People would have been more willing to accept something like winning three out of five matches.

They were looking forward to Tang Wulin’s performance in the soul master battle. At the same time, they were also looking forward to the candidate who would represent the Empire. Various information was already spread around in a hubbub. There were many names that had been suggested.

Tang Wulin had silently left the hotel early in the morning. There was a hooded girl traveling with him.

The duo walked on the streets. Star Luo City had truly livened up these days. Many people from the nearby cities flocked into Star Luo. Even those without a ticket wanted to experience the atmosphere that the Battle of Five Gods had brought in this city.

“Your Excellency, you truly did not have to trouble yourself,” Tang Wulin said to the girl beside him.

This hooded girl was precisely the Holy Spirit Douluo Yali.

She faintly smiled. “The Battle of Five Gods’ glory isn’t Tang Sect’s alone. It also belongs to the academy. Even if we lost the first two matches, you wouldn’t be overly affected by it. But this is different. I must guarantee your safety. Also, this Star Luo emperor has acted shamelessly by announcing your identity and then there’s this round-robin Battle of Five Gods. We have to come up with some way of dealing with this mess.”

Tang Wulin’s heart fluttered and he said no more.

Early in the morning when he was having breakfast, the Holy Spirit Douluo had come to him of her own accord. She told him that she wanted to head towards the coliseum with him.

Tang Wulin chose to walk. The reason was simple. Tang Sect’s vehicles stood out too much. If they traveled by car, he reckoned that it would be difficult for them to even move an inch. Tang Wulin did not wish for such a phenomenon. He would rather travel in a more relaxing manner.

Hence, he and Yali wore hooded tracksuits and walked on the streets. They wore masks and shades as well. It could be said that he was armed to the teeth right now. In addition to that, he had altered his aura with his spiritual domain and concealed himself.

They could often see people on the streets with Tang Wulin’s posters in their hands. Yali could not help but smile. “It looks like you’re doing a good job of being the Sect Master. I think that the entire Star Luo Empire knows you by now.”

Tang Wulin bitterly smiled. “I think the federation will also know about this by now. We’ll have some trouble waiting for us when we get back.”

Yali drily said, “There are some things that we must take on as our own responsibility. It’s time you make your statement. This incident might not be a bad thing. This will help you when you’re making the clarion call for the academy in the future. Otherwise, we’d have to think of some other ways to raise your popularity. This has saved us some trouble.”

Tang Wulin was shocked. “Your Excellency, you mean… Isn’t that too rushed?”

Yali smiled dryly. “Time waits for no one. Also, I don’t think you know how powerful Shrek’s call is, right? When the time comes, you’ll understand.”

He walked on with puzzlement in his heart. The coliseum was already in sight. The entrance was jam-packed with people who were crowding around the venue. Other than watching the big screen, there were many who were still hoping for some resold tickets. Some of them were waiting for Tang Wulin’s appearance so that they could see this Sect Master Tang in a close range. If they could experience his all-healing properties, that would be perfect.

Tang Wulin chuckled. “Looks like we’ve made the right choice by walking here. There are so many people! I don’t think the motorcade can make it through.”

There were many personnel in charge of security, but their numbers were insufficient to handle the huge numbers of spectators. Clearly, the Star Luo Empire’s officials had underestimated the requirement in this aspect. The scene was slightly chaotic.

Tang Wulin and Yali silently waded into the crowd and proceeded towards the entrance. There was a scuffle far away at this moment. A motorcade was slowly moving towards the vehicle entrance.

“Sect Master Tang is here!” Someone shouted in the crowd. The people immediately surged towards the spot like a tide. The area where Tang Wulin and Yali stood cleared instead.

Tang Wulin and the Holy Spirit Douluo looked at each other and smiled. They calmly walked towards the entrance. When Tang Wulin produced his documents to identify himself, the staff at the entrance was shocked at first. Then, he looked at the people far away and hastily let them in.

Tang Wulin could not help but feel his head hurt after they entered the coliseum. “The look in the guard’s eyes… I’m afraid that this method won’t work tomorrow.”

“You’re the great Tang Sect’s Sect Master. Do you think you can’t even go through a gate? The Star Luo Empire’s officials should be taking some measures as well. I don’t think this chaotic situation will be allowed to continue.”

Tang Wulin silently walked into the resting and waiting area. There were no vacant seats in the coliseum. Other than the platform, there were a few compartments in the empire’s coliseum. One of them belonged to Spirit Pagoda.

Zhang Geyang sat within the Spirit Pagoda’s compartment with a gloomy expression. His expression was pretty stern. Gu Yuena sat beside him with a calm expression.

Zhang Geyang had met En Ci yesterday. He had told him that he was willing to represent the empire in this third match, but he was rejected by En Ci. He did not even have the chance to take revenge. Yes, he had already suffered defeat under Tang Wulin’s hands. If he represented the Star Luo Empire to fight again, the people might not be able to accept it.

Zhang Geyang’s expression was cold. He had practically recovered from the effects he suffered yesterday. The only remaining problem was the decline in his cultivation base. He had not slept the whole night yesterday as he thought about a counterplan. No matter how hard he thought about it, there was only one way. Kill Tang Wulin and reclaim his spirit soul.

Tang Wulin was currently at an eight-ringed cultivation base and he had all the spirit souls he needed. In other words, he would not be merging with the Thunderclap Nether Vine any time soon. Although he was unsure what kind of trick Tang Wulin had played to get the Thunderclap Nether Vine to attach to him, Zhang Geyang still had a chance. If he could reclaim the Thunderclap Nether Vine and reestablish the contract before Tang Wulin could merge with it, his cultivation base could be restored. Although it would be even more difficult for him to attain a Limit Douluo’s rank, he would at least have a chance.

Hence, Tang Wulin had to die. He could only reclaim his spirit soul after Tang Wulin’s death.

Even by sitting next to Zhang Geyang, Gu Yuena could feel the deep evil thoughts within him at the moment. She had a good guess regarding the reason behind those thoughts. After she arrived yesterday, she had not asked Zhang Geyang about the spirit soul battle. She would not reopen his wounds. She had to at least save Zhang Geyang some face.

However, it did not seem as if he was going to let it go at that. When she slightly lowered her head, a faint killing intent flashed across Gu Yuena’s eyes. ‘If someone touches him, that someone would have to die first.’

There were currently some changes being made to the competition grounds. With the commentator’s explanation, the rules and traditions of the soul master battle were being read out to the people. The emotions of the people were at an all-time high. Currently, what they wanted to know the most was which soul master would be representing the Star Luo Empire in this battle.

They were not the only ones. Even the Shrek Six Monsters were waiting eagerly for the answer.

They had gone through many troubles to make it into the coliseum with the motorcade. When the people did not see Tang Wulin’s figure, they had kept the motorcade there for half an hour. In the end, they only managed to get into the building under escort from the imperial army.

What kind of person would his opponent be? It would certainly not be the Monster Academy’s principal.

En Ci had already come. He was seated beside the emperor Dai Tianling. He looked very calm.

On the other side of the emperor was the cheerful Smiley Face Douluo.

It was no wonder that he was this cheerful. He had received the prize of his gamble just moments ago. It was a real Bright Sacred Dragon Crystal!

Regardless of how reluctant En Ci was today, he could not go back on his words on a gamble that was witnessed by the emperor.
