[Ironclad, it seems we are being watched.]

[The opponent appears to be an Evil Soul Master, and their level is not below yours. It should be the Ghost Emperor of the Holy Spirit Cult!]

At this moment, the Ghost Emperor probably never dreamed of it.

Just as he was quietly tailing Luo Feng.

His own movements had already been reported.

At this time, the Vanguard Titan was hovering tens of thousands of meters high in the sky.

Yet, it was able to scan the entire scene in an instant.

It was originally intended to gather intelligence for its Ironclad!

But it never expected to net such a big fish.

"Ghost Emperor?"

"This Qiangu Dongfeng really is involved with the Holy Spirit Cult. It seems this Martial Arts Matchmaking won't be so peaceful after all!"

Originally, Luo Feng had no intention of looking for trouble.

He just wanted to quietly follow the tournament rules and fight his way through.

But he hadn't expected that others wouldn't allow it.

Although the Ghost Emperor's appearance was his own personal action.

Luo Feng did not know the truth.

Thus, he naturally assumed that Old Thief Qiangu had summoned this guy.

There was no need to mention what would happen next.

Rather than being a passive target, it was better to strike first.

Several major experts of the Holy Spirit Cult had already fallen into his hands, and the two sides were already locked in a life-or-death feud.

The appearance of this Ghost Emperor would clearly escalate the conflict between them even further!

"BT, keep him locked for me. I'll find a lively place to expose him in public!"

Although the relationship between Qiangu Dongfeng and the Holy Spirit Cult was murky and unclear.

Everything was still happening behind closed doors!

They could never publicly admit their connection!

To avoid being caught in a pincer attack by two Limit Douluo.

He had to find a way to shut the Spirit Pagoda's mouth.

The best method was to expose the Ghost Emperor's true face in front of everyone.

Over 90% of the young talents present had no love for Evil Soul Masters.

When the time came, even if Qiangu Dongfeng wanted to play dirty, he wouldn't be able to make a move openly!

Great!

That's how it will be done!

[Protocol received. Beginning to search for a suitable occasion for the Ironclad.]

The next moment, the Vanguard Titan began its high-speed calculations.

In the face of such a supercomputer's algorithms.

The Ghost Emperor had no idea that he was walking step by step toward his own destruction.

At this moment, he was wearing a mask, strolling leisurely behind.

From time to time, he recorded Luo Feng's preferences.

"Hmph, he's a guy who likes excitement too!"

"He even seems to like little beauties!"

"It seems I can find a few pretty cultists to lure him over!"

The two walked one after the other.

No more than 100 meters apart.

Both believed they were the hunter.

Until Luo Feng arrived at the Preliminary Arena Tournament.

This place was the most densely populated area for the contestants.

Among them were many elders from major families across the land.

Powerhouses at the Titled Douluo level were also everywhere.

"This is the place!"

"BT! Get the loudspeaker ready for me!"

[Received! Ironclad!

Full-Band Physical Amplification Array at full capacity, anti-stealth optical camouflage disengaged, orbital drop countdown: three, two, one!]

As Luo Feng issued the final command in his mind, his eyes, which had previously held a hint of laziness, instantly turned razor-sharp.

At this moment, the Preliminary Square was a sea of people, the noise deafening.

It had gathered not only young talents from every corner of the Douluo Continent, but also the leading elders of top sects and reclusive families.

It could be said that, excluding those old monsters in death-seclusion, at least half of the influential powers across the entire continent had sent representatives to crowd this area.

Within the crowd, the Ghost Emperor, disguised as an elegant young nobleman, held a folding fan with a cold, sinister smile on his lips, believing he had everything under control.

His gaze, like a venomous snake, was locked firmly onto Luo Feng's back.

Heh, ignorant brat. This Seat will surely extract your soul and light it as a sky lantern!

The Ghost Emperor was frantically calculating his vicious plans, having even thought through how he would haggle with Qian Gu Dongfeng afterward.

However, just as he believed himself to be the peerless hunter orchestrating the game, a sudden change descended!

"BOOM!!!"

The previously clear, cloudless sky over the Ming Capital suddenly erupted with a terrifying sonic boom that seemed to tear the very firmament apart!

The sound was not thunder, but the terrifying roar produced by some massive object of immense mass, forcibly tearing through the atmosphere at a super-high speed that completely defied aerodynamics.

"My god! What is that?!"

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! There's a fireball falling from the sky!"

"Such terrifying pressure! Is... is this an attack at the level of a Limit Douluo?!"

Countless soul masters in the square looked up in terror.

They saw a massive "meteorite" burning with a blindingly bright, ghostly blue plasma trail, plummeting straight toward the Preliminary Square at the Spirit Pagoda headquarters with an earth-shattering posture from an altitude of thirty thousand meters!

The unreasonable, terrifying gravitational acceleration caused the surrounding space to distort violently.

The Titled Douluo-level elders present felt as if a ten-thousand-foot mountain had been pressed onto their hearts. Their legs went weak, and their martial souls were nearly crushed by the metal frenzy descending from the heavens!

And just as everyone believed the apocalypse had arrived and the Spirit Pagoda was about to suffer a devastating blow, a deafening, mechanical, synthesized electronic voice erupted from the massive fireball, clear enough for the tens of millions of people in the Ming Capital to hear!

[Warning! Warning! System has detected an extremely dangerous evil biological wavelength!]

[Attention, all soul masters of the continent! There are Evil Soul Masters! The Spirit Pagoda has been infiltrated by the Ghost Emperor!!!]

[Repeat! There are Evil Soul Masters! The Spirit Pagoda has been infiltrated by the Ghost Emperor of the Holy Spirit Cult!!!]

These few sentences, amplified by the Vanguard Titan's maximum-power speakers and laced with Limit-quasi-god-level mental shockwaves, were like a hundred Level 9 Fixed Soul Guidance Cannons detonating in the crowd simultaneously!

"What?"

"Holy Spirit Cult! The Ghost Emperor?"

"That ninety-nine-level old monster, the Ghost Emperor, who slaughters without blinking and wipes out cities and sects? How dare he come to the Spirit Pagoda headquarters!"

The entire square exploded in an instant, panic spreading like a plague through the crowd.

All the young talents and sect elders hurriedly summoned their martial souls, looking around in utter terror.

Everyone knew what kind of people the Holy Spirit Cult were. If those lunatics who treated human lives like blades of grass had infiltrated an event of this scale, they were definitely aiming to round everyone up and sacrifice their flesh and blood!

"This... what the hell..."

In the corner of the crowd, the Ghost Emperor, who had been preparing to watch a good show, froze completely.

His disguised, handsome face was etched with unconcealable shock and bewilderment.

The folding fan in his hand hit the ground with a sharp clack.

The next moment, a harmless-looking man blocked his path of retreat!

"Surprised? Unexpected?"

Luo Feng walked up to the Ghost Emperor and teased him in a loud, mocking voice that everyone present could hear.

"Senior Ghost Emperor, you certainly play the art of skin-stealing and soul-possession concealment well.

But the times have changed, my friend!"

Hearing these words, the several Titled Douluo-level powerhouses on the scene immediately reacted.

"He, he is the Ghost Emperor!"

"The Ghost Emperor is here, surround him quickly!"
