Chapter 1343: Nine Red Soul Rings

As Monster Academy’s president, En Ci was infuriated, so he personally brought Tong Yu back to Monster Academy for execution.

Tong Yu had not resisted from the beginning to the end. He allowed En Ci to take him back to the academy and answered all questions accordingly during the interrogation. En Ci found himself somewhat hesitant.

The act of cultivating a Hyper Douluo was incomparably difficult! Moreover, Tong Yu had been assigned to work at his alma mater after graduation. Even so, the matter could not be left unanswered.

After careful consultation with the government, a compromise was decided for Tong Yu’s punishment.

Every powerhouse with a Title Douluo cultivation base and above would be given a certain amount of leeway. However, Tong Yu’s crime was despicable, so he was sentenced to fifty years in prison and forbidden from possessing battle armor for the rest of his life. Additionally, he was barred from ever leaving Monster Academy unless given special permission by the academy.

It had already been thirty-seven years since the day his imprisonment began. Tong Yue was close to seventy years old. In the entire Monster Academy, En Ci alone was capable of utilizing him. He was considered the hidden guardian concealed in Monster Academy’s darkest corner. Even among Monster Academy’s students, few were aware of his existence.

En Ci had harsh demands for Long Yue. He was especially strict when it came to keeping his emotions under control, mostly due to the incident caused by Tong Yue decades ago.

The whole thing had also left the public unsatisfied. There was once a large-scale march carried out to request for the Qilin Douluo’s execution.

In the end, he lived because of the government and Monster Academy’s guarantees.

Thus, the spectators on the platform were incensed when they heard the commentator call out the Qilin Douluo Tong Yu’s name.

“Get out, murderer!”

“Why are we allowing the murderer to represent our empire? What right does he have?”

“Kill him! Kill him!”

Voices rose one after another. At once, the entire coliseum seemed to turn into a chorus of abuse.

Tang Wulin, who was standing on the other side entrance, could not help feeling stunned. He did not know who the Qilin Douluo was, but he understood very well that there was absolutely no trace of this person in the Smiley Face Douluo’s analysis of possible opponents.

However, Tang Wulin could tell from the audiences’ response that the Qilin Douluo was well-known but famous for his bad reputation.

How could the Star Luo Empire choose such a person as Tang Wulin’s opponent?

On the platform, Dai Tianling frowned deeply. He turned his head to the side and looked toward En Ci, but his gaze was already filled with dissatisfaction.

‘This is the Battle of Five Gods. This is the battleground for the Battle of Five Gods! It is a representation of the empire through combat.’

How inappropriate was it to send a criminal to represent the empire? Yet, En Ci had done so. Dai Tianling suddenly felt as if he had placed too much trust in his teacher. There was an issue the day before, but his teacher still allowed Tong Yue to engage in today’s battle. Even if the Star Luo Empire were to win, the empire would still lose its prestige! How cynical was it to send a criminal to represent the empire and achieve victory?

“Your Majesty, Tong Yue has been waiting for a chance all this while. The opportunity today is too important for him. I’m willing to be his guarantor. He will never embarrass the empire after today’s competition has ended. He has waited for this day for all of thirty-seven years. I am the only one who understands his thinking. Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I am willing to bear any form of punishment for today’s events.”

En Ci had left his seat and spoke earnestly on bended knee before Dai Tianling.

Even though Dai Tianling did not understand him, his expression relaxed slightly upon seeing En Ci kneeling before himself. He hastily helped En Ci to his feet. “Don’t do that, teacher. I trust you then.”

“Thank you, Your Majesty.” En Ci turned his head and looked to the coliseum. The person whose face was covered in scales was the Qilin Douluo Tong Yu. He thought to himself, ‘Let go and do what you wish to do, boy.’

There were scales on Tong Yu’s face, but his gaze remained extremely calm. He had already experienced a situation similar to the Thousand Accusing Fingers decades ago. This day was incomparably important to him.

He had long been waiting for this day’s arrival. Everything else on the outside was unimportant now, and he blocked out the cursing voices.

He walked forward with huge strides toward the arena as he gazed at the opponent standing on the opposite side of the coliseum in the distance.

The protective shield was raised to cut off the voices from the external world and the Qilin Douluo’s eyes had turned intensely cold.

Tang Wulin had also ascended to the arena. The opponent held back his aura, so Tang Wulin could not detect the extent of the opponent’s cultivation base. However, he could tell that the opponent was certainly not a simple person.

Affected by the crowd’s emotions, the commentator dared not say too much but immediately announced the start of the day’s match instead.

Tong Yue did not immediately attack. He first raised his head and let out a roar into the sky.

On the inside of the protective shield, one could not hear anything from the external world, but those on the outside could hear every sound from within.

Tong Yu’s frantic cry was like the raging roar of a hundred tigers. He had managed to suppress the voices of one hundred thousand people in the crowd. His soul rings then manifested from underneath his feet.

Tang Wulin felt a chill when he saw that these soul rings were red in color. Indeed, all his soul rings were red.

A total of nine red soul rings rose in succession, rapidly elevating his aura many times over.

Red represented a one-hundred-thousand-year cultivation base! As far as Tang Wulin knew, there was absolutely no one capable of possessing nine one-hundred-thousand-year soul rings. It was truly unbelievable. Nine one-hundred-thousand-year soul rings signified that he had at least eighteen soul skills. How formidable could this man be?

Not only that, Tang Wulin could tell that there was a wisp of bitterness in Tong Yu’s roar. It felt as if he wanted to express all the emotions in his heart through the raging cry.

Unbeknownst to Tong You himself, the crowd’s expressions changed when they saw the blood-colored soul rings rise from his body.

The audience quieted down. Many people sitting in the main platform had a change of countenance.

Inside the box, Zhang Geyang was stunned for a moment at first, then he clapped his hands and laughed aloud. “Very well, very well. The Qilin Douluo Tong Yu. I really didn’t expect that such a person was hidden in Monster Academy. The fact that he revealed a secret weapon like this shows En Ci is genuinely sparing no effort in this Battle of Five Gods. It’s a good thing actually.”

Gu Yuena did not utter a word but only looked on coldly as a bystander. Even though Zhang Geyang was laughing, he revealed an envious expression when he saw the nine blood red soul rings on the Qilin Douluo’s body. Yes! Without a doubt, this was the greatest pursuit in a soul master’s life.

Even a Limit Douluo might not necessarily own nine red soul rings, yet he had them. Did it mean that this man here had already reached the rank of a Limit Douluo?

Thirty-seven years ago, the man was already a Hyper Douluo. Nearly four decades had passed and his soul rings were elevated to red by some unknown method. So, what was his cultivation base? He had grown significantly in thirty-seven years. Could it be that he was the second Limit Douluo in the Star Luo Empire?

The thought struck the minds of almost everyone in the crowd.

He was a murderer, but he had been imprisoned for thirty-seven years. If he had already become a Limit Douluo, and his power could be controlled, then could he be forgiven?

The opinions of some in the crowd began to waver. After all, this was a world that advocated for power. He was a Limit Douluo! He would be vital to any country. There were no Limit Douluos in the entire Dou Spirit Empire and even in the Douluo Federation there were only a few. If Star Luo could have one more Limit Douluo, then it would undoubtedly elevate the overall ability of the Star Luo Empire by a large margin.
