Chapter 9: A Sudden Plot Twist, the Mysterious Fallen Soul Master Named Tang Chen.
[In response to your request, Dugu Bo agreed and took you once again to the strange herb garden in Sunset Forest.]
In the herb garden, you chose to pick a Narcissus Jade Bone, a Miraculous Chrysanthemum Reaching Heaven, a Golden Gourd from the Earth Dragon, a Nine-Grade Purple Ganoderma, a Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower, a Frosty Glass Flower, and two bamboo shoots of the Black Jade Divine Bamboo.
[Of course, you haven't forgotten Dugu Bo. You picked an eight-petaled fairy orchid that could strengthen the body's foundation and remove impurities, and gave it to Dugu Bo.]
You told him that after your last visit to this medicinal garden, you were fascinated and intrigued by the exotic flowers and herbs.
Upon returning home, you consulted various ancient books, searching for records of these exotic flowers and plants. In one of these books, you discovered information about some of these rare and exotic plants.
[Among them is this eight-petaled fairy orchid, which can strengthen the body's foundation and remove impurities, perhaps even eliminating the accumulated phosphorus poison within it.]
Dugu Bo was very grateful.
[After returning, you consumed the Narcissus Jade Bone and Muscle Strengthening Elixir, resulting in a significant advancement in your cultivation, an improvement in your cultivation aptitude, and a faster cultivation speed.]
Not long after, you took the time to return to Wuhun City again.
[In the Hall of Offerings, you gave the Earth Dragon Golden Melon to Golden Crocodile Douluo, the Ninth-Grade Purple Ganoderma to Azure Phoenix Douluo, the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower to Lion Douluo, the Frost Glazed Flower to Light Feather Douluo, and the two Black Jade Divine Bamboo Shoots to Thousand-Pound Douluo and Demon-Slaying Douluo.]
After consuming the celestial and top-grade spiritual medicines you provided, all the other worshippers, except for Azure Phoenix Douluo, experienced martial soul evolution and breakthroughs in their cultivation. Golden Crocodile Douluo finally broke through to level ninety-nine, the Limit Douluo.
Grandpa Golden Crocodile, have you finally broken through to the Limit Douluo level?
That's wonderful!
In the simulated future, with his help, Golden Crocodile Douluo finally broke through to the Limit Douluo level.
Qian Renxue couldn't help but feel very happy.
[After helping the revered grandfathers evolve their martial spirits and break through their cultivation levels, you were very pleased. You then left without a trace, concealing your merits and fame.]
In the blink of an eye, it was time again for Shrek Academy to join the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
[Because you didn't want Tang San to ruin Dugu Bo's herb garden.]
Therefore, you told Dugu Bo in advance that Tang San was the son of Haotian Douluo Tang Hao, dispelling Dugu Bo's thoughts about Tang San and completely severing Dugu Bo's connection with Tang San.
Afterwards, you assumed everything would proceed as before.
[They also attempted to bring Poison Douluo, Sword Douluo, and Ning Fengzhi to support Tang San on their way to the finals in Wuhun City, to repel the attacking Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, and to recruit Tang San once again.]
But this time, things suddenly changed drastically.
When Ning Fengzhi brought Sword Douluo to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy to visit Ning Rongrong, Sword Douluo recognized that Xiao Wu was actually a 100,000-year-old Soft Bone Rabbit in human form and told Ning Fengzhi.
Ning Fengzhi was immediately overcome by greed and, disregarding Ning Rongrong's objections, attempted to capture the 100,000-year-old soul beast in its human form.
However, Xiao Wu is Tang San's beloved, and Tang San is the son of Tang Hao, the Haotian Douluo.
Tang Hao had always known Xiao Wu's true identity and considered her his own possession. How could he tolerate Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo snatching her away from him?
Therefore, Tang Hao immediately appeared, intimidating Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo, and took Tang San and Xiao Wu away.
Later, Flander, along with the rest of the Shrek Academy students, joined Blue Tyrant Academy and renamed it Shrek Academy.
This time, however, without Tang San, the Shrek Academy team failed to even qualify for the preliminary rounds.
how so!
Unexpectedly, Xiao Wu, the 100,000-year-old Soft Bone Rabbit in human form, had her identity exposed so early.
Qian Renxue found it very difficult to understand.
Why was Xiao Wu's identity as a 100,000-year-old Soft Bone Rabbit only revealed after arriving in Wuhun City in the previous two simulations?
This time, the Soul Master teams appearing in the Heaven Dou Region qualifiers are the Divine Wind Team, Thunder Team, Blazing Fire Team, Heavenly Water Team, and Elephant Armor Team.
In the qualifying rounds, Ye Luo once again appeared in the Plant Academy's Plant Team, leading them to first place.
How come the falling leaves were included in the botanical academy in all three simulations?
What exactly is it about this botanical college that attracts him?
Why won't he follow me?
Qian Renxue frowned, her mind filled with confusion.
After the qualifying rounds concluded, the Soul Master teams that advanced from the preliminary rounds, under the arrangement of your Heaven Dou Royal Family, traveled together in luxurious carriages to Wuhun City.
Without Tang San, the journey proceeded without incident, and the caravan arrived safely in Wuhun City half a month later.
In the finals, Ye Luo led the Plant Team to victory after victory, advancing to the top three to face off against the Star Luo Royal Team and the Spirit Hall Team in a decisive battle.
In the first stage of the individual challenge, Ye Luo single-handedly led the plant team to victory.
After defeating the Star Luo Royal Team, the Spirit Hall team earned the opportunity to face the Plant Team in another team battle to determine the final champion, but they still lost.
After becoming the champion, Ye Luo, representing the Plant Team, received the three ten-thousand-year-old soul bones as the championship reward. However, she only kept the ten-thousand-year-old wisdom-condensed skull and sold the other two soul bones to the Spirit Hall.
As you were leaving Spirit City, you noticed Ye Luo giving you a very strange look.
However, you cannot understand its meaning.
Three years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Tang San, disguised as Tang Yin, still appeared at Yuexuan and caught Xue Ke's eye.
Two years later.
[That woman once again forced you to poison Xue Ye ahead of schedule and seize the throne, while she led the Spirit Hall in launching the Soul Hunting Operation, annihilating the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan.]
This time, you are aware of the future crisis.
Therefore, you found your grandfather Qian Daoliu, along with your grandfathers Jin'e, Qingluan, Xiongshi, and Guangling, who came together to secretly protect you.
This time, Tang San did not come to cause trouble.
But that powerful fallen soul master still came, attempting to force his way into the palace and kill you.
[But unfortunately, you've enlisted the help of your grandfather, along with Grandpa Golden Crocodile, Grandpa Azure Phoenix, Grandpa Lion, and Grandpa Light Feather, all to secretly protect you.]
After Grandpa intervened, the mysterious fallen soul master was no match for him.
[But as the fight progressed, the blood-red markings on the mysterious fallen soul master's face suddenly faded, revealing the handsome and rugged face of a middle-aged man, and his entire demeanor changed drastically.]
Grandpa's expression suddenly changed drastically, and he exclaimed: "Tang Chen, it's you!"
[Afterwards, this fallen soul master named Tang Chen actually summoned the Clear Sky Hammer martial soul, which turned the tables and suppressed Grandpa, forcing Grandpa Golden Crocodile, Grandpa Azure Phoenix, and Grandpa Lion to attack together.]
This great battle was incredibly massive, shaking the entire Heavenly Dou Imperial City.
Finally, Tang Hao unleashed a powerful hammer strike, hurling it at you. Grandpa, Grandpa Golden Crocodile, and the others were forced to protect you, allowing Tang Chen to escape.
Because you couldn't explain the identities of Grandpa, as well as Grandpa Golden Crocodile, Grandpa Azure Phoenix, and Grandpa Lion, under the machinations of Prince Snow Star and the Fourth Prince Avalanche, you were forced to abandon your usurpation plan and flee the Heavenly Dou Imperial City.
After returning to Wuhun City, your grandfather had you undergo a divine trial beneath the statue of the Divine Ancestor.
You have successfully triggered the Nine Trials of the Angels and have gained the qualification to inherit the angelic throne.
[Simulation ended.]
