Heaven Dou Grand Soul Fighting Arena!
Dugu Chen and the others stood in formation, facing seven men and women dressed in different colors. This was their final battle at the Heaven Dou Grand Soul Fighting Arena.
Before this, they had already achieved twenty-three consecutive victories in Seven-Person Team Battles. None of their opponents had caused them any trouble.
Since Soul Ancestor Level teams were already scarce, Dugu Chen and the others did not plan to remain in Heaven Dou City after this match. At times, Dugu Chen suspected that the opposing teams were members of the Heaven Dou Royal Knights.
The coordination between them and their iron-blooded, murderous aura were not something ordinary Soul Masters possessed. Therefore, Dugu Chen had no intention of continuing to fleece the royal family.
Dugu Chen and the others were originally the Heaven Dou Royal Academy's team, naturally carrying the aura of stars. What was more, they had been winning battle after battle during this period.
Over the past two months, they had fought once every three days on average and won every match. At the Heaven Dou Grand Soul Fighting Arena, they had already become a legendary team known to everyone.
"Heaven Dou will win!"
"Heaven Dou will win!"
"Heaven Dou will win!"
The moment Dugu Chen and the others stepped onto the stage, the cheers from the audience below instantly surged. Men and women alike gave them their loudest cheers and greatest support.
Dugu Chen and the others were a group of handsome men and beautiful women, and despite their young age, they possessed tremendous strength. They were practically the embodiment of people's dreams.
The men admired Dugu Chen and the others' strength while coveting the beauty of Dugu Yan and the other two girls. The women were much the same.
Nearly all the spectators around the arena were fans of the Heaven Dou Team.
Facing such a scene, the seven people opposite Dugu Chen and the others seemed somewhat flustered. They were clearly a group of handsome men and beautiful women themselves, but in their eyes, the Heaven Dou Team was more terrifying than raging floodwaters and savage beasts.
They knew the Heaven Dou Team's reputation all too well. Many teams even stronger than their own had fallen one after another before them.
Dugu Chen and Ye Lingling in particular seemed like demons to them. The former's fighting style was downright violent; even when facing two or three opponents alone, he usually finished them off with just a few punches and kicks.
The latter made their hearts tremble even more. Several times, their opponents had nearly lost, only for her to release her Martial Soul and completely heal their injuries. They had not even had time to shout surrender before being forced to continue taking a beating.
They were demons among demons!
"Alright, our contestants are all in place. To my left is the Mad Dragon Team. This team has also achieved an excellent record. To my right is the Heaven Dou Team from our Heaven Dou Royal Academy."
The host's voice was filled with pride and excitement.
"For the past two months, the Heaven Dou Team has achieved twenty-three consecutive victories here at our Heaven Dou Grand Soul Fighting Arena. Moreover, several members of the Heaven Dou Team have yet to reach Soul Ancestor Level—they have all been fighting opponents above their rank. Today is the final day of the month. Let us see whether the Heaven Dou Team can continue their winning streak!"
His words were full of praise for the Heaven Dou Team. After all, he too was a citizen of the Heaven Dou Empire. Since such an invincible team had emerged from the empire, of course he had to sing their praises.
"Begin!"
As the host's voice fell, everyone instantly underwent Martial Soul Possession, dozens of soul rings shining brilliantly!
The battle was about to erupt!
Ten minutes later!
As Shi Mo knocked the final opponent off the arena, the Heaven Dou Team won another match, maintaining their undefeated record.
"Heaven Dou will win!!!"
With the Heaven Dou Team's victory, the spectators around the arena erupted in cheers.
Dugu Chen and the others turned around with calm expressions and headed toward the exit. After adapting to it over this period, this level of noise could no longer affect them.
Dugu Chen and the others strode forward, their shoes striking the floor of the Grand Soul Fighting Arena with sharp taps.
"You won?"
After meeting up with Liu Ze and Qin Ming, Liu Ze spoke. Though it was phrased as a question, his tone was full of certainty.
Dugu Chen nodded indifferently.
At that moment, a middle-aged man in a white suit walked over, looking at them with an awkward expression.
"Teacher Liu, there really aren't any suitable teams left in the Soul Fighting Arena to match against you all. What do you think?"
Liu Ze said to the steward, "Cui Steward, we'll be heading to other cities tomorrow for training. We won't be able to come to the Heaven Dou Grand Soul Fighting Arena for the time being."
Joy clearly flashed across Cui Steward's face. These young masters were finally leaving. If they stayed any longer, the teams he had painstakingly raised would be broken apart one by one. He had worked so hard to cultivate them!
The Grand Soul Fighting Arena was still counting on them to make money!
"Then I wish you all great success in battle. Win the championship of this Soul Master Tournament and show those Star Luo barbarians what you can do," Cui Steward said in congratulation.
Dugu Chen and the others acknowledged his wishes, then turned and left the Heaven Dou Grand Soul Fighting Arena.
After returning to the luxurious hotel they had rented out, the nine of them gathered in an elegant private room to celebrate.
"Brother Chen, are we leaving Heaven Dou City next?"
Oscar spoke excitedly. Ever since his Martial Soul Awakening, he had never left Heaven Dou City.
The others also looked toward Dugu Chen. Who did not yearn for freedom? Yet their families had never allowed them to leave home for training. This time, with the academy backing them, they were naturally excited.
Dugu Chen set down the large piece of bone-in meat in his hand and looked at them. "Of course. We'll head to the Star Dou Great Forest first. Oscar and I both need soul rings. Then we'll travel around the major cities of the Heaven Dou Empire for training. By the time we return, the tournament should be about to begin."
The group immediately broke into happy cheers at his words!
Liu Ze and Qin Ming, however, were somewhat worried. Although they would be accompanying them, and nothing would likely happen, one could never be too careful. If even one of them were lost, the two of them would be finished.
Seeing the worry on Liu Ze and Qin Ming's faces, Dugu Chen said, "My teacher will accompany us on this soul-hunting trip, and Sect Master Ning will also send an elder over."
His fifth soul ring would have to be at least thirty thousand years old. With their current strength, they probably could not handle a thirty-thousand-year Soul Beast. Dugu Chen did not want to see any casualties when the time came.
"Right! Dad promised he'd send an elder," Ning Rongrong confirmed from the side.
Hearing that Dugu Bo was coming and that the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School would also send an elder, the two of them breathed a huge sigh of relief.
An elder of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School was at least a Soul Saint-level powerhouse. With those two, they should be more than capable of keeping everyone safe.
"What attribute do you think I should choose for my soul ring this time?" Oscar asked the group.
"No matter what Soul Beast you pick, your soul incantations will still be just as crude," Ning Rongrong immediately mocked.
"Ning Rongrong, no matter how crude my soul incantations are, they're still better than your Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda! I'm going to become the continent's first auxiliary-system Titled Douluo!" Oscar shot back at once.
"You—my Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda is the strongest, Uncle Sausage."
Watching the two start arguing, Dugu Chen shook his head helplessly. Over the past two years, Oscar and Ning Rongrong would start fighting after barely exchanging a few words.
This original canon couple had practically become a pair of bickering enemies!
Could it be that rivals in the same trade were natural enemies? But Ye Lingling was so quiet!
Oscar's words had just reminded Dugu Chen that Ning Rongrong's martial soul was still the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda. It seemed he would need to find a suitable opportunity to speak with Ning Fengzhi.
As for Shi Mo and the others, after spending several years together, Dugu Chen was also willing to provide them with a few Immortal Herbs.
Immortal Herbs only had value when used. Given his relationship with them, he was more than willing to help make their paths a little smoother.
