Douluo Dalu II—Chapter 79: Use the Sun Moon Divine Needle on Him
Luan Feng sneered. "Princess Jiujiu, we have no intention of fighting Xuan Zi. After all, if a real battle breaks out, it will cause numerous casualties.
If the three of us were to do something like this, it would mean that the Sun Moon Empire has declared war on the Star Luo Empire. Currently, the Sun Moon Empire has no intention of launching a full-scale war with the Star Luo Empire, so I don't want to make a big fuss!"
"But this strongest man from Shrek Academy has been oppressing us. Even a person with a good temper would be angered by him!"
According to the Sun Moon Empire's intelligence, the famous Dragon God Douluo, Mu En, had not appeared in front of outsiders for many years, leading them to suspect that Mu En had died long ago. Therefore, in the eyes of many senior officials in the Sun Moon Empire, Xuan Zi was considered the strongest person in Shrek Academy.
Xuan Zi was a little annoyed. "I just asked you to give up a soul bone, but it turns out that I am oppressing you. I remember that Meng Hongchen from the Sun Moon Empire has an ice attribute martial soul, right? Are you trying to buy this soul bone for her? For a soul master, soul bones aren't that important!"
At that moment, Jing Hongchen flew to the door of Room 2, ready to leave with his men at any time. He thought that this soul bone was bought for Huo Yuhao, but since the other party had misunderstood him, he wouldn't offer too much explanation.
Some misunderstandings, if they continue, may benefit Huo Yuhao. After all, Huo Yuhao, the number one genius of the Sun Moon Empire, was still relatively weak. Even for a genius, it takes time to grow from a small sapling into a towering tree.
Jing Hongchen looked at Ye Yulin and said in a deep voice, "Ye Yulin, use the Sun Moon Divine Needle on Xuan Zi!"
Ye Yulin nodded, handed the ninth-level fixed-type soul guidance shell to Luan Feng, and then took out two wooden boxes from his storage ring. He opened the boxes, and two balls of silver light suddenly whizzed toward the sky, followed by two silver beams that descended and landed before him.
Ye Yulin continued to make an upward motion. At this time, two golden balls of light appeared within the silver beams, resembling the rising sun. The two golden balls flew directly toward the vicinity of the silver balls.
Then the four light balls were arranged into two pairs—one gold and one silver—rotating around a central point. In an instant, two enormous gold and silver balls appeared in the air.
Xuan Zi suddenly felt that he was being locked by the Sun Moon Divine Needle but was relieved at that moment. This was enough to show that the other party had left him a way out. Otherwise, Ye Yulin should have chosen to lock Room No. 1, as he had just mentioned.
If the other party did something like that, it would be real trouble. If another group of students died, not only would he seek vengeance, but he would also have to resign again!
Everyone present felt a sense of threat—even the Nation Protector Douluo, Cheng Gang, wore an extremely ugly expression. This was the oppressive feeling of a ninth-level soul guidance device!
Xu Jiawei, standing nearby, felt a little depressed. He had obtained the God Sealing Alter from a ninth-level soul engineer of the Sun Moon Empire, giving him some insights into the Sun Moon Empire's capabilities.
The maker of the Sun Moon Divine Needle was Starry Sky Douluo, Ye Yulin. The usage conditions of this ninth-level soul guide were quite demanding. Before use, one must absorb the essence of the Sun and Moon for three full days. After three attacks, one must absorb the Sun and Moon essence again.
Moreover, the coverage range of the Sun Moon Divine Needle reaches a full thirty kilometers, having all-attribute destruction characteristics and immense power.
There was no doubt that these powerful individuals from the Sun Moon Empire came prepared!
You definitely cannot fight against such a well-prepared enemy. You can only try to calm their emotions.
So Xu Jiawei forced a smile and said, "Starry Sky Douluo, what happened today was just a misunderstanding. Elder Xuan was too excited when he saw this soul bone, resulting in this situation.
Why don't we all take a step back? You put away the Sun Moon Divine Needle, and the other ninth-level soul engineer can also put away their fixed-type soul guidance shells. Then Old Xuan can return to Room No. 1, and everyone can bid fairly?"
Upon hearing this, Xuan Zi suppressed his anger and said, "Okay, I will give Xu Jiawei a favor today!"
For the safety of the students, he could only make this choice.
At this moment, Ye Yulin deliberately put on a cold façade and said, "Both sides can take a step back. However, Star Luo Emperor, you should know how many targets our Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy has encountered in this Soul Fighting Competition!
In previous Soul Fighting Competitions, there have never been such outrageous new rules for soul guidance devices. How did such rules suddenly appear in this competition?
Could it be that you intended to take advantage of Shrek Academy's withdrawal from the competition to let the Star Luo Empire win the championship in one fell swoop? Were you deliberately designing this rule?
I can see that our Sun Moon Empire students are extremely uncomfortable competing due to the new soul guidance device rules! Therefore, unless you abolish the new rules and make the competition fair, I will still not put away these two Sun Moon Divine Needles!"
Jing Hongchen began playing the good cop at that moment. He advised, "Ye Yulin, don't act this way. We still need to give a face to the Star Luo Emperor! Let's give him some way out so we can meet again in the future!"
Ye Yulin waved his hands impatiently. "Humph! When I, Ye Yulin, do things, I don't care about what others think!"
Jing Hongchen was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Xu Jiawei and said apologetically, "Star Luo Emperor, don't mind him; Ye Yulin has this temper. Once he dislikes something, he becomes impulsive.
Even the former emperor of the Sun Moon Empire was targeted by Ye Yulin with the Sun Moon Divine Needle!"
The story about the former emperor of the Sun Moon was relatively benign—after all, he had died long ago. The current emperor of the Sun Moon Empire despised the former emperor greatly.
Hearing this, Xu Jiawei was stunned. He knew that the other party was forcing him to take a stance. He was unwilling to accept this. He had finally devised a new soul guidance device rule to limit the Sun Moon Empire and create a chance for the Star Luo Empire to win the championship. But now he was expected to abolish this rule?
But as his gaze swept over the Sun Moon Divine Needle and the ninth-level fixed-type soul guidance shell again, he still chose to take a step back.
'What if Ye Yulin went insane? Wouldn't I be dead?'
Although he felt that Jing Hongchen and Ye Yulin were playing good cop and bad cop respectively, he did not dare to bet on Ye Yulin losing control.
For most people in the Douluo continent, all beings are equal in the face of death. Xu Jiawei certainly did not wish to die. He was still young, and he wanted to live.
As for relying on Master Xuan to save his life, based on the record of the team he had led last time, he felt that Master Xuan could not protect anyone. Instead of trusting Master Xuan, he might as well devise a plan himself.
So Xu Jiawei said with great sorrow, "I arranged for people to establish new rules for soul guidance devices, emphasizing that it should be based on the interests of the contestants. My original intention was good, but the treacherous officials below poorly executed it!
I didn't expect that the new rules they formulated would cause so much trouble for the Sun Moon Empire's students! Had I known this would happen, I would never have allowed these new rules to appear!
Now I've concluded: there are bad people among the ministers! I will take strong action against these bad actors!"
"Of course, effective immediately, to ensure the fairness of the Soul Fighting Competition, the new rules for soul guidance devices will be abolished! The use of soul cannons will no longer be restricted!"
