Shocking Xingluo! Reward: Battle Armor Forgemasters!

"What?!"

Giant Force Douluo stared in disbelief at Mu Yunye, who had fully unleashed the power of his Battle Armor. What kind of soul tool was this? It was a form they had never seen before, and moreover...

The instant the soul tools covering his entire body erupted, they forcibly raised Mu Yunye, a mere Soul Elder, to the realm of a Soul Sage—an increase of three entire major ranks. What soul tool could possibly provide such a terrifying boost?!

"This... is a soul tool?!"

Everyone cried out in shock. Seeing the Battle Armor covering Mu Yunye's body, seemingly completely fused with him and possessing a spirit of its own, they all abruptly rose to their feet.

"This soul tool even comes with its own domain. How is that possible? Not even a ninth-grade soul tool can accomplish that!"

The chicken leg in Xuan Zi's hand suddenly fell to the ground as he stared blankly at Mu Yunye's Battle Armor.

"It seems you don't intend to negotiate properly."

Mu Yunye sneered.

"Boom—!"

The next moment, Golden Crocodile Douluo, Demon Subduing Douluo, Thousand Jun Douluo, Yue Guan, and Gui Mei all released their martial souls and nine soul rings. The power of Titled Douluo at no lower than Rank 95 erupted simultaneously.

That horrifying pressure instantly changed the Xingluo Emperor's expression. Dai Hao and the others hurriedly stood before him, preventing him from being blasted into dust by that aura.

"What do you think you're doing? This is the Xingluo Imperial Family!"

Dai Hao roared.

"Who made the first move?"

Mu Yunye coldly retorted. At that moment, he had completely unleashed the power of the Sword Star God Battle Armor. It complemented his Elemental Sword martial soul, the two bursting forth with brilliant power together and moving everyone present.

"Is this the soul tool technology currently possessed by Wuhun City?"

Xuan Zi asked in a deep voice.

"That's right. This is the soul tool technology possessed by Wuhun City. Tell me, do you—or even the Sun Moon Empire—have the ability to produce it? Since you do not, wouldn't giving rare metals to you simply be a waste?"

This time, it was Golden Crocodile Douluo who spoke.

The Golden Crocodile King martial soul behind him radiated an incomparably terrifying pressure. If there was anyone present who could fight him, it was perhaps only Xuan Zi, who was likewise Rank 98.

However, Xuan Zi had no intention of making a move.

"What exactly does Wuhun City want?!"

The Xingluo Emperor asked gravely. He knew they absolutely could not start a war here. Not to mention that the other side had a Super Douluo, once a fight began, it would be extremely easy for them to assassinate him.

"From this day onward, Xingluo will no longer attempt to interfere in Wuhun City's affairs. Naturally, Wuhun City will not seek trouble without cause."

"Furthermore, forget about the rare metal veins. However, we can consider selling them to you at a discount, or directly selling the soul tools produced by Wuhun City."

Mu Yunye smiled faintly and continued, "Let me make this clear: Wuhun City only recognizes money when doing business. We do not care who the buyer is."

"As long as they have not offended us, we are willing to trade with them. That includes the special armor I'm wearing. If the other party is the Sun Moon Empire..."

Dai Hao roared, "You are aiding a tyrant in his evil!"

"Since we dare to make a move, we naturally possess the means to protect ourselves. But I cannot guarantee that you do as well. Today's meeting was not for anything else, nor does it mean Wuhun City has compromised."

Mu Yunye coldly swept his gaze over everyone present. Though he was the weakest among them, not a single person could easily ignore his presence. "Wuhun City may possess only the territory of one city."

"But if we wish to destroy Xingluo, it would not be difficult. If you want the Xingluo Imperial Family to survive peacefully, then stop thinking of provoking Wuhun City."

"If you wish to make a deal with Wuhun City in the future, you are welcome at any time. Wuhun City is hospitable, after all. We do not hoard our technologies; we will sell them as well. It depends on what price you are willing to pay."

With that, Mu Yunye waved his hand and took the lead in leaving.

"Hmph!"

Golden Crocodile Douluo snorted coldly before withdrawing his martial soul and slowly following Mu Yunye out. The Xingluo Emperor and the many Titled Douluo present gritted their teeth, yet none dared say another word.

If Wuhun City truly could mass-produce that kind of soul tool armor, then its strength had already far surpassed anything they could estimate. Destroying the Xingluo Imperial Family might truly not be mere boasting...

"Your Majesty, we..."

Dai Hao asked.

"..."

The Xingluo Emperor could only speak helplessly. "We can likely only accept this loss. Wuhun City's people possess profound and formidable foundations. We are no match for them."

"For them to possess such confidence, there may even be an Ultimate Douluo behind them. If an all-out war breaks out against such power, the Star Luo Empire may have to pay the price of national destruction."

The entire hall fell silent. No one refuted him.

"Ho! Holy Son, you were truly incredible just now, especially when your Sword Star God Battle Armor possessed you. When will you get a set of Battle Armor for me, Yue Guan?"

Yue Guan chuckled.

"There will naturally be an opportunity."

Mu Yunye smiled gently. If Battle Armor could be mass-produced, it would naturally be given first to Wuhun City's high-level combatants. At that time, Wuhun City would become truly invincible.

[You pressured Xingluo into no longer interfering in Wuhun City's affairs. Wuhun City's reputation has spread far and wide. Reward obtained: Wuhun City's fortune +1, one elite combat Soul Engineer Corps, five high-level Battle Armor forgemasters!]

"!!"

Mu Yunye's pupils trembled. Such abundant rewards—the system was truly terrifying. A combat Soul Engineer Corps, and even high-level Battle Armor forgemasters!

"It seems mass forging Battle Armor will soon become a reality."

Mu Yunye said with a smile.

Suddenly, Golden Crocodile Douluo stopped walking. His sharp gaze turned to the side, where Xuan Zi and Yan Shaozhe slowly emerged. Xuan Zi said, "Everyone from Wuhun City, the two of us are from Shrek City's Sea God Pavilion."

"We sought a private meeting only because we are curious about one matter. What connection do you have with the Wuhun City that was destroyed ten thousand years ago?"

Golden Crocodile Douluo replied with a false smile, "Whatever connection you think it is, that is what it is."

"Wuhun City now speaks only of development. If any blind fool wishes to attack Wuhun City, we naturally will not show any courtesy. As for the Wuhun City from ten thousand years ago that concerns you..."

He paused, his gaze inconspicuously flicking toward Mu Yunye before he continued, "We are the same as that Wuhun City, yet we are also different."

That was indeed as he said.

Though the current Wuhun City was still that same Wuhun City, it had undergone enormous changes and could also be called different.

"If the Sea God Pavilion wishes to trade with Wuhun City for the soul tool armor technology displayed earlier, would that be possible?"

Yan Shaozhe asked.
