Dugu Bo
Seven days have passed since the Challenge Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
All the Advanced Academy in Heaven Dou City knew that one of the intermediate academies had gained recognition from the Imperial Fighting Team Two of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy and qualified to participate in the Continental Elite Tournament.
But the specific process of the challenge was hidden by Tiandou Royal Academy, and even those dudes didn't mention it at all.
For a time, many students from the Advanced Academy also began searching for a place for the Nuoding Team to stay in Heaven Dou City.
It's a pity!
Like Dugu Bo, they searched only the high-end hotels in Heaven Dou City, but found nothing. Some even began to suspect that Heaven Dou Royal Academy was playing a joke on all the Advanced Academy in Heaven Dou City.
Upon learning of this, Xue Ye's first reaction was to ask Xue Qinghe, "Weren't they invited to join the Heaven Dou Royal Academy?"
Those are truly talented individuals!
The Soul Elder level can rival the Soul Douluo in terms of aura, and even break through Meng Shenji's Soul Pressure, which is truly unexpected and can even be said to be earth-shattering!
"It's impossible for him to join the Heaven Dou Royal Academy."
Xue Qinghe sighed, "Father Emperor, if you had personally experienced his Aura Field, you would definitely think the same as me!"
At this point, Xue Qinghe paused for a moment before continuing, "He doesn't want to be bound by anything, or he wants to establish a sect."
Seven days is enough time for Snake Lance Douluo to investigate the situation in the Nuoding City and Holy Soul Village area.
It was precisely because they understood the changes in Holy Soul Village and the surrounding villages that they even opened up a road running east to west along the border of the Two Great Empires, connecting the villages, towns and cities between the north and south of the border, and even leading to the western Vast Sea City for trade.
This situation—
They either want to establish a sect or they want to establish a country and become kings.
In short, they want to start their own business.
Moreover, although that area is the border Two Great Empires, it is different from the borders of other regions. It is mostly hillsides and basins, which are suitable for growing rice, but it is not a strategic military location, and it is 400 miles away.
"To establish a sect?" Xue Ye sighed. "That's quite ambitious! A young talent! Qinghe, find an opportunity to get closer to them."
"I understand."
Xue Qinghe bowed his head in agreement.
On the other side.
Dugu Bo finally found the hotel where Zhou Qing and the others were staying. Based on the portrait provided by the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, he arrived at the table where Zhou Qing and the others were having a meal in the restaurant.
"Grandpa, have you gotten lost from your family?" Romantina asked with concern when she saw an old man with dark green hair and beard, a chiseled face, and sunken cheeks.
After all, she is a guardian knight, and helping those in need is one of her duties.
"Am I being treated like an ordinary old man suffering from dementia?" Dugu Bo chuckled.
In other places, such as those Advanced Academy near the mountains, he wouldn't bother with any nonsense and would simply snatch his target away.
Why should Titled Douluo need to explain his actions to others?
However, this was inside a hotel in Heaven Dou City, where there were many people and eyes, so it wasn't appropriate to make a direct move. Otherwise, the Spirit Hall would have a legitimate reason to cause him trouble.
"May I ask who you are, sir?"
Zhou Qing noticed the old man's unusual Aura Field and asked him a question.
"How about coming to my house for a chat?" Dugu Bo was not one to beat around the bush; he spoke his mind directly, extending an invitation to Zhou Qing and the others, but his tone was like a forceful command, brooking no argument.
Who are you?
"Account banned: Poison".
Upon hearing this, the seven people at the table were all taken aback.
The visitor was actually Titled Douluo!
Zhou Qing was also surprised.
Tang San thought that Dugu Bo would come knocking on the door the day after Tang San cured Dugu Yan's poison, but it turned out that it took a full seven days for him to arrive.
Could it be that this guy wasn't in Heaven Dou City for the past few days?
What Zhou Qing didn't know was that Dugu Bo was a loner with few friends and didn't want to trouble Prince Xue Xing to avoid owing favors. He wandered alone among various high-end hotels and Advanced Academy until he met Commoner Soul Master student from the Blue Tyrant Academy half a day ago. Only then did he realize that the Nuoding Team came from the countryside and was a team from an intermediate academy, so they probably couldn't afford to stay in high-end hotels.
This investigation...
Sure enough, Zhou Qing and his group were found in this guesthouse.
"Sorry, we're not going," Zhou Qing refused.
"Um?"
In an instant, a powerful aura pressed down on Zhou Qing.
However!
Four Mind-Sense Qi Field erupted in an instant, colliding with Poison Douluo's aura for a moment before shattering it.
An invisible storm swept outwards.
However, the Mind-Sense Qi Field of Zhou Qing and the others only erupted for a moment, so it did not cause the other diners to faint, but the turbulence did cause many people to fall to the ground, and the food on the table was scattered all over the place.
"The rumors are true that he can withstand the Soul Pressure of Soul Douluo- level being." After sensing the four people's conviction, Poison Douluo's whole body trembled, and his calm expression became extremely solemn at this moment.
Although it was just a clash of auras, the combined Mind-Sense Qi Field of Zhou Qing, Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Romantina, along with Ariel's conviction, could even shatter the Sea God's conviction of the Sea God's Light!
Even without Ariel, Dugu Bo is not someone who can suppress them with just his aura.
"Is this why Senior Poison Douluo came? Then it's simple, just give him two billion Gold Soul Coin." Zhou Qing already knew about Dugu Bo's domineering nature, but he still chuckled and took out a book on the theory of Qi Field Power from the Gray Pouch.
Although Dugu Bo was indeed very interested in this, his real purpose in coming here this time was not for the so-called Qi Field Theory, but to understand how Tang San cured Dugu Yan's Jade Phosphor Violet Poison and removed some of the toxins from her body.
Tang San himself may not know, but if his Self-Created Soul Skill has a similar effect, then he must find a way to obtain it.
Trade?
Or was it coercion or bribery?
It concerned his and Dugu Yan's Life, so he was willing to lower his bottom line even further.
Although he couldn't overpower these youngsters in terms of sheer force, Dugu Bo certain that their strength was definitely not comparable to that of Titled Douluo, and that dealing with these seven people wouldn't be difficult with his strength alone.
"Looks like he's looking for you, Tang San." Seeing Dugu Bo looking at Tang San, Zhou Qing calmly put the theory back into the Gray Pouch.
"What business do you have with me, senior? Just say it here," Tang San asked respectfully.
"There are too many people around here, it's hard to say."
Dugu Bo glanced at the rest of the people in the restaurant, his brows furrowing slightly. He hoped to invite everyone from the Nuoding Team to his residence for a detailed discussion.
"I'm afraid that won't work."
Zhou Qing refused again.
"What? Are you worried that I'll harm you?" Poison Douluo sneered.
That's exactly what I think.
Zhou Qing spoke the blunt truth that left Poison Douluo speechless.
Go to the residence of Poison Douluo?
When Dugu Bo goes "crazy" then, he will suffer an undeserved disaster.
After all, although this guy is clear about his grudges, he doesn't have the demeanor of a strong person. He doesn't feel any guilt about bullying the weak, and if there is anything that threatens him, his first thought is to eliminate it.
Moreover, in the original novel, this guy directly kidnapped Tang San. Even after being told that Tang San was poisoned, he still had to test Tang San's detoxification ability before gaining his trust.
He doesn't trust anyone, not even so-called Martial Soul Theory Grandmaster or medical Grandmaster. He might secretly poison them to test them... Given Dugu Bo's personality, if a so-called Grandmaster can't even detect being poisoned, he's just a figurehead. To some extent, Dugu Bo has an unconventional scientific spirit and will verify things himself.
If this large group of them were to go to Poison Douluo's residence now, and discover that Tang San could explain how he was poisoned, Dugu Bo probably wouldn't follow the rules...
