Tian Lian Dies

The bell rang with a crisp, clear sound. Everyone who heard it instinctively cleared a path, and after Na Nali asked for directions, she easily found the Dean of Academic Affairs' office.

At this moment, Tianlian Douluo was still in his office, having just finished a Soul Guidance communication with Zang Xin of the Tang Sect.

The Tang Sect had decided to invest heavily in the Heaven Dou Advanced Soul Master Academy to improve its teaching environment and bolster its strength, but at the same time, Zang Xin had made a request: he hoped to station a Tang Sect representative within the academy.

Tianlian Douluo understood that this was because Zang Xin was worried about the matters in the Sunset Forest being exposed, so he did not refuse Zang Xin's request.

In reality, even if he had refused Zang Xin's request, it would have been useless.

He was merely the dean of an advanced academy; while a Super Douluo might seem infinitely glorious, when facing a massive power like the Tang Sect, a Super Douluo had no autonomy to speak of.

What did level ninety-five matter? The Tang Sect could grab a handful of Super Douluo at any time!

Just as Tianlian Douluo was contemplating whether the future of the Heaven Dou Advanced Soul Master Academy would gradually be seized by the Tang Sect, Na Nali pushed the door open and walked in, interrupting his thoughts.

"Who are you?"

Tianlian Douluo looked at Na Nali as she walked in, his brows furrowing slightly.

He felt an indescribable aura radiating from Na Nali—a very dangerous aura!

This strange young girl before him was incredibly powerful!

Na Nali still wore a smile on her face. She walked up to Tianlian Douluo with a smile and took out a bell. When this strangely shaped, ornate bell appeared in her hand, a sound wave slowly began to ripple outward.

When Tianlian Douluo felt the ripples of the sound wave, his expression changed drastically!

The aura Na Nali released in that instant made Tianlian Douluo realize her true strength! She was at least several levels higher than him!

A bell!

The Dark Bell!

The person before him was the Dark Bell of the Holy Spirit Cult, Na Nali!

Tianlian Douluo tried to move, only to find that he was completely unable to act; he couldn't even control his own fingers!

"Stop struggling. With your cultivation, it is impossible to break free from my control," Na Nali said, shaking her head with a smile.

To put it bluntly, there were countless Ultimate Martial Souls in this era. The Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus possessed by Tianlian Douluo was not considered powerful compared to Ultimate Ice, and furthermore, his cultivation level was a full three levels lower than Na Nali's!

At the Super Douluo realm, every single level was like a chasm!

His initial underestimation of the enemy, combined with the absolute gap in their levels, left Tianlian Douluo with no power to resist!

Tianlian Douluo was panicked; he never expected someone from the Holy Spirit Cult to appear so brazenly in his office! This was Tiantou City, after all; besides them, the Tang Sect and the Blacksmith Association were both located here!

Was she not afraid?

Seeing the expression on Tianlian Douluo's face, Na Nali reassured him: "Don't be afraid. I just want to ask you a few questions."

As she spoke, she raised her hand and pressed it against Tianlian Douluo's head.

Her powerful spiritual energy surged into Tianlian Douluo's spiritual sea without any obstruction.

Na Nali could be considered the Title Douluo who had delved deepest into spiritual power across the entire Douluo Plane. Aside from a Limit Douluo who could resist her spiritual erosion with pure spiritual power, no one could escape!

Within Tianlian Douluo's spiritual sea, Na Nali found exactly what she was looking for.

"Calling himself the Dragon King of the Holy Spirit Cult?"

"Ah... this power, it is indeed the aura of a Limit Douluo!"

"I didn't expect that there would be a Limit Douluo acting under the name of this cult. Truly unprecedented."

"Oh... I've discovered something even more interesting!"

"The Shrek Seven Devils, is it..."

Na Nali browsed through Tianlian Douluo's memories one by one, the smile on her face growing wider. Only after obtaining what she wanted did she release her spiritual suppression on him.

Looking at Tianlian Douluo, whose forehead was covered in cold sweat, Na Nali smiled slightly and said, "I'm sorry, but I don't have the habit of sparing lives!"

Tianlian Douluo's pupils constricted. He immediately mobilized all his Soul Power, attempting to break through Na Nali's suppression, but the moment he moved, Na Nali pressed down on his head.

"If you had put on your Three-Word Battle Armor from the start, controlling you would indeed have been difficult, but you didn't!"

Her fingers gradually tightened, causing Tianlian Douluo's skull to slowly cave in: "You lost your only chance to trade blows with me! A level ninety-five Super Douluo is no different from an ordinary person in my eyes."

Na Nali was a level ninety-eight spiritual-type Super Douluo! In terms of spiritual power, below the Limit, she was invincible!

Tianlian Douluo's head was crushed directly by Na Nali. Under her spiritual suppression, he couldn't even send out a message! Looking at the body slumped in the chair, Na Nali wiped the brain matter from her hands and turned to leave.

Tianlian Douluo's body was not discovered until noon.

The Dean of Academic Affairs had intended to come and discuss the message sent by Shrek Academy, but as soon as he entered the room, he saw that Tianlian Douluo was already dead!

Terrified, he immediately informed Zang Xin of the situation!

To be able to kill a Super Douluo inside the Heaven Dou Advanced Soul Master Academy without causing any commotion was simply inconceivable!

Zang Xin arrived at the scene immediately. He looked at Tianlian Douluo's corpse with a grave expression and said in a deep voice: "No commotion means no battle... To be able to leave Tianlian without any power to resist... could it be that the Limit Douluo has struck again?"

"Damn the Holy Spirit Cult!"

The Dean of Academic Affairs clenched his fists, his eyes filled with rage.

He had worked with Tianlian Douluo for many years. Seeing his friend dead—and in such a miserable state—the hatred in his heart for the Holy Spirit Cult was greater than ever before.

Zang Xin turned back to look at him and said, "Now that Tian Lian is dead, you cannot lose your composure! The Tang Sect will immediately send people to assist you in taking control of the Heaven Dou Advanced Soul Master Academy. Stabilizing the situation is what you must do most!"

The Dean of Academic Affairs was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, His Excellency Duoqing..."

Yun Qianzhao and his group, having successfully obtained the opportunity to challenge the Star Luo Advanced Soul Master Academy through the same methods, were being led toward the Soul Fighting Zone. The sunlight shone down, full of warmth, yet within this warmth lay the scent of crisis.

Yun Qianzhao's expression remained unchanged as he raised his hand to catch the falling sunlight.

Something had gone wrong in Tiantou City.

From the sunlight, Yun Qianzhao sensed a threat emanating from the direction of Tiantou City.

As their strength grew day by day, the warnings of crisis they received from the radiance of the sun and moon became increasingly clear. The Twins believed that once they reached the realm of Title Douluo, no sinister plot directed at them would be able to remain hidden anywhere the sun and moon shone!

"Uncle-Master Qianzhao, what are you thinking about?" Xu Xiaoyan asked curiously after seeing Yun Qianzhao's contemplative expression.

Yun Qianzhao shook his head.

The teacher from the Star Luo Advanced Soul Master Academy leading the way heard the commotion behind him and turned back with a smile, saying, "No need to worry! Being able to challenge a Soul King already makes you very impressive! Even if you lose, it doesn't matter."
