The Legend of the Dragon King

Panda Novel

Tang Wulin was slightly shocked as he looked at this Smiley Face Douluo. He never thought that he would spare no effort to declare his support for him. That was a great start! With his support, his status as the Tang Sect’s Sect Master would be firmer and stronger. At the same time, he could also do more in the Star Luo Empire.

“Sect Master, there’s something that I must remind you of. The Star Luo Empire is different from the Dou Spirit Empire. In recent years, the Star Luo Empire’s strength has been improving day after day and it’s developing quickly. They’re very interested in soul technology and its people like martial arts very much. They have a lot of soul masters. It’s not something the Dou Spirit Empire can be compared to. Moreover, the Star Luo Empire is a staunch supporter of personal heroism. Hence, it’s highly possible that there’ll be fighting involved here. As our representative of the Tang Sect, as well as its Sect Master, it’s very likely that you’ll be challenged by them.”

Tang Wulin nodded slightly. He had foreseen such circumstances. When he first came to the Star Luo Empire, he had experienced the Star Luo Empire’s obsession with martial arts. Although the Star Luo Empire’s Monster Academy could not be compared to Shrek Academy, it was still extremely powerful. Its principal was a Limit Douluo-ranked expert.

“Do you know what kind of challenges they’ll throw at me?” asked Tang Wulin.

Hu Jie shook his head. “We don’t know yet. However, Dai Tianling has at least sparred with En Ci twice. They must have fought over this matter. I’m sure it’s not as simple as it seems. Although the Spirit Pagoda’s standing in the Star Luo Empire isn’t as high as ours, they are a supplier of spirit souls, so they’re standing is not that low either. It won’t be that easy to persuade the Star Luo Empire to stand firmly at our side and convince them that the Spirit Pagoda is cooperating with the Holy Spirit Cult.”

Tang Wulin nodded. Persuasion was not the only method they would have to use against the Star Luo Empire. The people of the Star Luo Empire were tough. Their country was developing very quickly and their foundations were stronger. They could even wait for their enemies to be exhausted by the long journey before attacking them. They might not necessarily fear this war. At the very least, they stood a chance.

Hu Jie continued, “Sect Master, your spiritual cultivation base is very powerful. I wonder what rank can your actual cultivation base reach?”

He knew about Tang Wulin’s actual age. That was why it was natural for him to be suspicious. The spiritual power Tang Wulin displayed had already startled him. If he possessed such an extraordinary spiritual power at such a young age, he deserved to be Tang Sect’s Sect Master.

Hu Jie was the genius of his generation, but after all those years of cultivation, his spiritual domain was not yet complete. Nevertheless, he had broken through to Spirit Domain, so there was still a chance for him to reach the rank of a Limit Douluo.

How old was Tang Wulin? He was only in his early twenties. He had never heard of anyone being able to attain such spiritual cultivation base at his age. Even the Atlas Douluo Yun Ming who had been dubbed the greatest on the continent could not attain such a spiritual cultivation base at this age.

After a slight pause, Tang Wulin said, “I currently have a Soul Douluo’s cultivation base. I’ve just recently formed my eighth ring. In terms of combat strength, I think I won’t lose to any three-word battle armor master.”

Hu Jie beamed. Although Tang Wulin had said these words flatly, he could pick up the extreme confidence behind them.

In truth, three-word battle armor masters encompassed a wide range. After a person had reached the rank of Soul Saint, there was a possibility to become a three-word battle armor master. However, it was extremely difficult to complete the forging of three-word battle armor. Normally, only soul masters with eight-ringed cultivation bases and above could accomplish that.

Ranking up from a three-word battle armor master to a four-word battle armor master was extremely difficult. Almost every four-word battle armor master was a Hyper Douluo or above. There were no Divine Craftsmen in the entire Star Luo Empire. Hence, other than the Limit Douluo En Ci, who crafted his four-word battle armor through special methods, almost every battle armor master below a Limit Douluo was of three-word rank.

Although Tang Wulin might not actually be able to fight against someone that was almost a Limit Douluo, with the confidence he displayed at this current moment, he was confident that he could fend off a Hyper Douluo. Also, Hu Jie had heard that Tang Wulin had killed the Pagoda Master of the Spirit Pagoda’s Dou Spirit Empire Branch in the Dou Spirit Empire with a special technique. That person must have also been a Hyper Douluo-ranked expert.

This made him feel at ease. If Tang Wulin possessed such strength at his age, it would not be long, perhaps only ten years, before he became one of Tang Sect’s Limit Douluos. If he could become a Limit Douluo in his thirties, he would bring great repute to the Tang Sect for at least a hundred years.

He was very satisfied with Tang Wulin. The two Hall Masters’ choice seemed perfunctory, but there was no way that such a peerless genius like Tang Wulin could be shackled without some effort.

“That’d be enough.” Hu Jie chuckled and patted his own large belly.

Tang Wulin suddenly turned to speak to him. “Hall Master Li, I’ve heard of your mighty name before this. I wonder if I could request some guidance from you? Lately, in my cultivation, I’ve been somewhat enlightened. It would be my honor to be guided by you.”

Guidance? Hu Jie looked at Tang Wulin. The smile on his face thickened.

This Sect Master of his had said guidance, but in truth, he wanted to appease him with concrete actions. That was interesting. With Tang Wulin’s words, he was even more at ease.

“I don’t think I can direct you, but there’ll be no problem with sparring. When we reach our destination, there’s a dedicated place for that within Tang Sect. I look forward to experiencing the Sect Master’s strength as well.”

In truth, Hu Jie had somewhat misunderstood Tang Wulin. Tang Wulin had no intention of displaying his strength to him, but it was true that he had been improving too much lately and he could barely get a grip on how strong he actually was. After a few breakthroughs, he was not even sure where his own limits were.

He could only vaguely guess that he would have no problem in fighting a Hyper Douluo with his current strength. The Smiley Face Douluo was a rank-98 Hyper Douluo and had a twin martial soul. He was the pinnacle of Hyper Douluos. Sparring with him and inspecting his own strength through actual combat would undoubtedly be the best option. It would also be beneficial for Tang Wulin to polish his own enhanced powers.

The Star Luo Continent’s surface area was larger than the Dou Spirit Continent’s. There was a considerable distance from the shoreline to Star Luo City. The motorcade only arrived there at dusk, and they went straight toward Tang Sect’s headquarters.

Along the way, any car that noticed the Tang Sect’s motorcade would automatically make way for them. Some of them would even sound their horns in greeting.

How could Tang Wulin not be moved at such a scene? While the Tang Sect was forced to operate in the shadows on the Douluo Continent, their status in the Star Luo Empire was much greater. This made him respect the Smiley Face Douluo beside him even more. Without this man’s efforts, the Tang Sect would not enjoy such a standing in the Star Luo Empire.

The motorcade drove into Tang Sect’s headquarters. Many high-ranking officials of the Star Luo Empire’s Tang Sect were already standing at the door to welcome the arrival of their current Sect Master.

When they alighted, Hu Jie introduced each one of them to Tang Wulin. The Star Luo Empire Branch was flourishing compared to the Tang Sect in the Dou Spirit Empire. The officials Hu Jie brought before Tang Wulin included at least twelve Title Douluo-ranked experts.

This was a firm foundation! The Tang Sect’s immense strength was evident here.

Their accommodation was already taken care of, as they stayed within the Tang Sect’s headquarters. Everyone had their own private rooms.

“Sect Master, you should rest for now. I’ll have someone brief you about the Star Luo Empire in a moment. Tomorrow morning, the Star Luo Empire will first send the fourth prince Dai Yueyan to meet you and have some preliminary discussions with you. The day after, it’ll be the official meeting with the emperor and the royal family.”

Dai Yueyan? Was he not Dai Yun’er’s brother? He was also one of Monster Academy’s heavenly kings. He vaguely remembered that his moniker was the Tiger King.

It seemed that the heavenly kings of Monster Academy back then were all climbing their way up the social ladder in the Star Luo Empire. He wondered what the Dragon King Long Yue was doing right now. He wondered if he was still in Monster Academy.

When he thought about Dai Yun’er, Tang Wulin could not help but have complicated feelings. Even now, he could clearly remember the sadness Dai Yun’er felt after he rejected her. However, feelings could not be forced. Dai Yun’er was also a Tang Sect member. This time, she should be aware of his visit.

Back then, in Dragon Valley, they had been on an adventure together. They faced the dragons and slowly made their way to the Dragon Clan’s graveyard. Around that time, she had fallen for him. She was a good girl, but it was a shame that he already had Gu Yue, or Gu Yuena.

In the depths of Tang Wulin’s heart, he wanted to meet Dai Yun’er and see if she was doing well. However, he was also slightly afraid to meet her.

“Hall Master Li, can you arrange for your assistance to be given tonight? If we do it tomorrow, our schedule might be too packed. I’m also worried that I won’t have enough time to recuperate. I’d like my companions to observe our session as well. There’s another thing. If you’re okay with it, we can also invite the high-ranking officials from the Tang Sect to observe. I hope that they can gain something from it.”
