Chapter 185: What are you doing? Is this still the Sun Moon Empire?
one year later.
As the richest country on Douluo Continent, Sun Moon Empire naturally had no problem hosting such a big competition. But even so, they prepared for this competition for three full months.
Mingdu was originally the largest city in the continent today. Under the leadership of Bishop Lu Xueling, it is far better than ever before.
A large number of hotels were expanded and guest rooms were added to accommodate more guests during this event, especially merchants from other places, so as to earn more profits.
Bishop Lu Xueling had promised in a letter that the final prize of this competition would no longer be soul bones, but soul guides.
The top three teams will receive three soul guides as prizes, with the champion receiving level 9, the runner-up receiving level 8, and the third place receiving level 7.
For Douluo Three Kingdoms, the price of these three soul guides is much higher than the value of soul bones. Especially the three level nine soul guides that the champion team can obtain are basically priceless treasures in today's world.
Only the Sun-Moon Empire possesses a ninth-level soul guide. At the same time, this ninth-level soul guide is the so-called biggest threat to the Douluo Three Kingdoms!
With the huge prizes, all participating teams are gearing up and working hard for a higher ranking. This is not only a good opportunity to become famous, but also a good time to get huge rewards!
Mingdu, Saint Xuelin City, back garden.
Plants of all shapes and sizes were scattered throughout the garden. Each design was unique. It was just past noon, and the garden was full of flowers, most of which were spiritual plants. Throwing any one of them out would be enough to make all the soul masters and soul beasts fight to the point of bloodshed.
Because what are planted here are all the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye Immortal Grass that Qian Renxue and Gu Youyue packed and brought back together!
There is a clear lake in the garden with sparkling water. The lake is a hundred meters wide and as clear as a mirror. It was specially built by Lu Xueling based on the Star Lake in the Star Forest when it was first designed for the best viewing experience.
At this moment, Bishop Lu was lying by the lake, holding a purple-gold diamond ring on the fingertips of his right hand. Inside the little finger-sized diamond was a cross-shaped symbol, the symbol of Yakong.
Staring at the diamond ring, his eyes unconsciously softened: "After this competition is over... I will be with Xilin..."
"My god."
A gentle call brought him back to reality from his thoughts. Turning around to look at the person who came, Gu Yuena, the Herrscher of Knowledge, was standing respectfully at the gate of the back garden.
"Gu Yuena?" Lu Xueling put away the diamond ring, stood up and asked, "Is everything settled over there?"
Gu Yuena smiled and said, "Everything is ready. I am also very curious about what the expressions of those humans will be when they see a group of soul beasts appear in the participating teams..."
"I'm actually looking forward to whether this group of primitive people will doubt that they have come to the wrong continent after seeing the now developed Sun-Moon Empire." Lu Xueling also revealed a cold smile.
Yes, this time, Lu Xueling was the one who gave the Soul Beast Clan a place to participate. As legal residents of the Sun Moon Empire, why can't they come? Of course, the cultivation level of the participants is still limited to 20,000 years or less.
Just as he expected, the academies and sects from the Three Douluo Kingdoms also arrived in the Sun Moon Empire one after another at this moment. The fastest one, Shrek Academy, even arrived in Mingdu. However, this time, there were no quotas for the Tang Sect.
Chicken Leg Douluo Xuanzi is still in charge of leading the team, but this time Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo are also added.
After five years, Beibei, Xu Sanshi and others have grown up a lot and can already serve as the main force of Shrek Academy.
Unfortunately, Ma Xiaotao is no longer able to do so because she is too old.
"We've arrived at Mingdu." Xuanzi waved his hand, and everyone quickly landed from the air at the gate of Mingdu.
Originally, this city did not have city walls, but they were built at Lu Xueling's request, and they look very technological.
buzzing...
On the horizon, rows of dark gray Titan mechas were speeding towards them. Xuanzi was the first to notice something unusual. With his eyesight, he could see the appearance of those iron lumps from a thousand meters away.
"What is that... thing? It belongs to Shrek, be on guard!"
Xuan Zi shouted in a deep voice, and immediately, all the Shrek students, as well as Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo quickly mobilized their soul power and formed a defensive formation.
Those steel monsters were getting closer and closer, and finally, they stopped about 10 meters away from Shrek and his group.
"Wow, so big..." Xu Sanshi compared the size of these guys and his own shield and couldn't help but be amazed.
"Are you all here in Mingdu to participate in the competition?" An electronic voice came from inside the leading red Titan mecha.
After hearing what it said, everyone was stunned. These iron lumps could speak human language? Where did the mecha come from? It even knew such a question, so it must have a special origin. However, Xuan Zi still nodded, "We are here to participate in the competition."
A hearty electronic laugh came from the red Titan mecha, and then the hatch of the mecha opened. A burly man wearing a golden helmet stood up and greeted them: "Welcome, welcome, don't panic. We are sent by the Bishop to greet you. Please come in."
As he finished speaking, the remaining 12 Titan mechas all stood in two rows and retreated to the surroundings, revealing the passage leading to the city.
"what???"
Seeing a living person crawling out of these iron lumps, the Shrek primitive people couldn't help but open their mouths wide, shocked beyond words.
Beibei couldn't help but ask, "Big brother...what is this thing you are riding?"
The sturdy man laughed, with a hint of pride in his words, "This is called a Titan mecha, a new type of equipment from our Sun Moon Empire! Isn't it beautiful?"
The Shrek primitive people looked confused. They really couldn't understand how people could drive these steel monsters.
"Has the soul guidance technology of the Sun-Moon Empire become so terrifying?" Xuan Zi's inner alarm bells rang, but he remained calm on the surface.
Fortunately, Lu Xueling had promised that they would not use soul guide technology to play the game. Otherwise, Xuan Zi couldn't imagine, with seven rows of Titan mechas on the opposite side, how could these ordinary soul masters break through the defense?
With shock, Xuan Zi slowly stepped into the city, and the other Shrek students followed closely behind him. However, as he walked, he discovered that the ground of Mingdu was very different from that of Douluo Three Kingdoms. It was no longer a mud road, but an extremely hard, flat and spacious road made of some unknown material.
Because they flew all the way from Shrek Academy, Xuanzi and his companions have only come into contact with the ground surface now. If they had just entered the territory of the Sun Moon Empire, they would have found that the roads in other cities were the same, except that Mingdu's were more spacious and cleaner.
As they walked along, everyone was full of doubts.
"What is the Sun-Moon Empire doing?" Xuan Zi frowned, puzzled.
Roads are like the meridians of the human body. The more developed the transportation is, the better the country will develop. Chicken Leg Douluo understands these principles.
But now, the road surface has become so hard that Xuan Zi even concluded that the horses would sometimes slip when running on it, and it would be much slower than running on a muddy road.
However, just when Xuan Zi was confused, his huge mental power sensed an object about seven meters long approaching from behind. The speed was several times faster than the carriage, and the sound was very slight.
"There is a strong man!" Xuan Zi was slightly surprised and turned around suddenly. Then, he, Xian Lin'er, Qian Duoduo, and other Shrek students saw a carriage without a horse coming quickly from behind.
The car was going very fast, and as it passed by everyone, it created a strong gust of wind.
Xuan Zi clearly saw rows of seats inside, which were filled with people. At a glance, there were at least two dozen people.
Xuan Zi's eyes widened, his mouth opened involuntarily, and his head was confused.
"Master Xuan, look!" Wang Dong's exclamation was heard again. Everyone looked in the direction of her finger. There was a buzzing sound in the sky. One was an unidentified flying object, and the other was a huge dark purple bird soul beast that was thirty meters long.
"That thing flies faster than me!" Wang Dong estimated the speed and was immediately shocked.
He Caitou pointed at the soul beast and said in disbelief: "The point is why there is a soul beast in the sky above Mingdu."
Xian Lin'er withdrew her mental power, swallowed her saliva, and reported: "Master Xuan, that bird-like flying object has no life response, and there is no soul power fluctuation..."
"No..." Xuanzi expanded the range of his mental detection with some disbelief.
Then he spotted more planes, patrolling Titan mechas, and other small soul beasts walking on the streets...
"Hey, what the hell are you doing to me?"
At this moment, Xuanzi even wondered if they had come to the wrong continent.
"Is this still the Sun-Moon Empire?!"
