Chrysanthemum Douluo Arrives, Three Lives Martial Soul on the Ranking

The snow in the Extreme North was heavy, or at least, it used to be.

Back in the day, Chrysanthemum Douluo, then only a Soul Emperor, had visited this place.

He had come to help Ghost Douluo, who was about to advance to Soul Emperor, hunt a Ten Thousand Year Ghost Snow Demon.

"Is this really the Northern Province of the Heaven Dou Empire?"

Chrysanthemum Douluo asked his subordinates with some uncertainty. Was this place, now filled with the warmth of spring, blooming flowers, and the smoke of cooking fires rising from every household, truly the bitter, frigid borderland of the Heaven Dou Empire from his memories?

"Lord Elder, this... should be it."

Chrysanthemum Douluo frowned and barked.

"Where is the Martial Soul Hall Deacon for this area? Bring him to me."

Seeing that the subordinates he had brought from Martial Soul Hall were equally bewildered, he looked at the Martial Soul Hall guide who had followed them from the main city of the Northern Province.

"I, I don't know, my lord!"

The Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum bloomed from behind Chrysanthemum Douluo. He was a Douluo who loved flowers, but no one had ever said that a flower lover could not be a killer.

If one does not kill, how can one protect the flowers?

As soon as the pressure belonging to a Titled Douluo was released, the guide, who was only a Soul Ancestor, immediately knelt on the ground.

"Report to the Elder, please spare my life! It was our Hall Master. He felt this place was sparsely populated and that there weren't many children to awaken their martial souls, so it was a waste of our Martial Soul Hall's manpower and resources. Ten years ago, he ordered the branch to be closed down."

"Sparsely populated? Ordered it to be closed down?"

Chrysanthemum Douluo chuckled, then suddenly let out a cold snort.

"It seems our Holy Hall has produced a fine Bishop. Aside from being blind and brainless, he is truly loyal!"

He was so angry he laughed. Martial Soul Hall dominated the continent, yet within its own sphere of control, right under their own noses!

A terrifying force possessing several Titled Douluos had emerged, and this force had even completely transformed the entire border of the Northern Province!

"Calm your anger, Elder, please calm your anger."

"Lead the way!"

Chrysanthemum Douluo's red and gold ceremonial robes fluttered in the wind. But this wind was not the bitter, frigid wind of the border; it was a warm breeze carrying the scent of flowers and the presence of humanity.

"Martial Soul Hall Elder Yue Guan requests an audience with the Dean of Great Wall Academy."

Inside Great Wall Academy, Shao Siyuan and the others were laughing and guessing which student would appear on the Golden List next.

Yue Guan's voice carried his soul power, yet it was measured with extreme precision.

It was loud enough for everyone within the academy to hear, yet it lacked any sense of aggression.

He truly wanted to meet the Dean of Great Wall Academy, and then request an audience with Love Douluo.

As someone who possessed the King of Immortal Herbs, Lovesick Heartbreak Red, as his martial soul, Chrysanthemum Douluo was certain that the other party would surely regard him as a kindred spirit.

"If you seek friendship, drop the first half of your title. You may enter."

Su Han's voice rang out, cold and clear, yet shaking the hearts and minds of all who heard it.

That was due to his soul power being so overwhelmingly potent that it merely clung to his voice; for the weak, it was an immense pressure.

Chrysanthemum Douluo had cultivated for decades and held a high position; naturally, he understood what Su Han meant.

He gritted his teeth. Facing such a terrifying existence, how could he dare to play any clever tricks?

If he were to meet them under the identity of Yue Guan and mention the intentions of Martial Soul Hall, he feared he would simply be beaten out.

One had to know that on the Gold List, there were five people from this Great Wall Academy ranked higher than him!

Moreover, this Dean of Great Wall Academy was clearly a man; he was likely a ruthless character with an even higher ranking.

"Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan requests an audience with the Dean and Love Douluo!"

Heaven Dou Empire, Crown Prince's Eastern Palace.

Qian Renxue paced anxiously inside the palace. Pufferfish Douluo tried to console her incessantly, though his own voice trembled.

"Young Master, Old She will definitely be fine. If he can't even handle a Dugu Bo, I'll laugh him to death when he gets back."

"Uncle Pufferfish, would it take Uncle She a whole day to deal with a Dugu Bo given his strength?"

Pufferfish Douluo fell silent. Snake Lance Douluo was level ninety-two; on the surface, he was only one level higher than Dugu Bo.

But as a weapon-soul master, he held every advantage. With his formidable physical constitution and superior agility and attack power, how could he possibly be fighting a crowd-control type soul master like Dugu Bo for an entire day?

"Uncle Pufferfish, go find Uncle She!"

"Young Master, you cannot!"

"That is an order!"

"The situation within the palace is currently unclear, and undercurrents are surging. Xue Xing has entered the palace, how could..."

"That is an order!"

Qian Renxue let out a roar. Wearing the mask of Xue Qinghe, her expression was stiff, yet carried an unquestionable majesty.

"Your subordinate obeys."

Pufferfish Douluo's lips moved a few times, but he said nothing more and left to carry out the order.

Having worked alongside Snake Lance Douluo for many years, their bond was no less profound than that of Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo.

Having guarded Qian Renxue in this foreign land for so many years, how could he not understand her intentions?

"Young Miss, you must not act impulsively."

Thoughts surged through Pufferfish Douluo's mind as he channeled his soul power, pushing his speed to the limit as he raced toward the Sunset Forest.

He didn't even care that the Golden Ranking had rung out once again.

[Golden Ranking Combat Power Rank 13, Great Wall Academy, Dark Feather Douluo—Ying!]

[First Martial Soul: Nirvana Feather Blade. Second Martial Soul: Nether Feather Phoenix. Third Martial Soul: Body Martial Soul, Dark Feather East Monarch. Level 97 Power Attack, Agility Attack, and Defense System Super Douluo!]

Tang San rubbed his eyes, and Bibi Dong shook her head. They wanted to clear their minds and make sure they were hearing what this thing on the Golden Ranking was saying correctly.

Three Lives Martial Soul, Body Martial Soul, Phoenix, Power Attack, Agility Attack, Defense System.

How could these six terms possibly be combined together? What on earth are you talking about?!

Inside Shrek Academy, "Cough, cough, cough."

Yu Xiaogang had been leisurely drinking water, fantasizing that after the Golden Ranking finished its announcements, his book, "Ten Theories on Why the Heavenly Dao Golden Ranking Cannot Compare to the Astonishing Wisdom of Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang and a Brand New Authoritative Ranking," would shock the entire Douluo Continent, proving that the title of Grandmaster represented the pinnacle of wisdom for soul masters and all of humanity!

But now, what was this golden, glowing thing in the sky that claimed to be the Heavenly Dao saying?

Three Lives Martial Soul, triple-system cultivation, hahahahaha, so it turns out I, Yu Xiaogang, am the only piece of trash here?

666, you didn't invite me to the soul master evolution.

"Mr. Yue Guan, this way."

Zhuge Liang led the way. As the only person currently at Great Wall Academy who was both intelligent and articulate, he had naturally been sent to receive Yue Guan.

Su Han had just summoned new heroes for the education and health of the students; Zhuge Liang would serve as the grade director, while Cai Wenji and Yang Yuhuan would work together as school doctors.

As for the former director, Ying...

"Why won't you let me continue being a teacher, Dean? I'm begging you!"

Ying fawned over Su Han, kneading his shoulders without paying the slightest bit of attention to the Golden List's announcement about her.

"Ying, you made the list!"

As Ying's best friends, Shao Siyuan and Yao cheered for her together.

"Ah, what rank?"

Ying realized belatedly, stopping her shoulder-kneading to ask.

"Thirteenth."

Su Han replied. Ying's grip was incredibly strong; the physical attribute bonuses from her Body Martial Soul, stacked with her Beast Martial Soul, had reached a terrifying magnitude.

As a Defense-type, she was simply too strong, too capable of taking a hit.

Coupled with the special effect of her Seventh Soul Skill, Beast Soul Avatar—which granted a double health pool bonus and the heaven-defying ability to revive once from a fatal wound—she had been classified as a Defense-type Soul Master.

"Ah, that's so low. Won't Sister Yuhuan laugh at me?"

Afterward, Ying snuck a glance at Hua Mulan and muttered under her breath.

When will I finally be able to beat Sister Mulan? If I could do that, I would be Dean's sharpest sword.
