Douluo Talents Ranking, Tenth Place: Zhu Zhuqing (Part 1)!

Heaven Dou Empire, Shrek Academy, girls' dormitory, balcony.

Three girls stood side by side on the balcony. From left to right, they were Xiao Wu, with a scorpion-tail braid hanging to her hips and dressed in a fitted pink outfit; Ning Rongrong, with beautiful sapphire-like eyes and a long cyan glazed dress cinched at the waist; and Zhu Zhuqing, with an incredibly voluptuous figure, an imposing aura, and a black skintight bodysuit.

Upon learning from the commanding voice and the golden screen in the sky that the first person to appear on the Douluo Talents Ranking was actually her close sister Zhu Zhuqing, Ning Rongrong's beautiful eyes immediately lit up, and a delighted smile appeared on her face.

With a delighted smile on her face, Ning Rongrong pointed at the golden screen with her right index finger, looked at Zhu Zhuqing beside her, and said.

"Zhuqing, look! You made it onto the Douluo Talents Ranking!"

"Congratulations! You can receive a great opportunity to defy fate and change your destiny!"

Hearing Ning Rongrong's words and seeing the contents of the golden screen, Zhu Zhuqing also revealed a delighted smile before replying.

"In terms of innate soul power, I can't compare to Xiao Wu. In terms of martial soul quality, I can't compare to you, Rongrong. Our soul power levels and ages are roughly the same, so if even I can make it onto the Douluo Talents Ranking, then there is no doubt that you and Xiao Wu can too. So this is a shared joy."

"Mm-hmm!"

Zhu Zhuqing's words made a great deal of sense, and Ning Rongrong nodded heavily after hearing them.

After nodding, curiosity appeared alongside the smile on Ning Rongrong's face.

Ning Rongrong had two points of curiosity.

First, what rank would she hold on the Douluo Talents Ranking? Could she enter the top three?

Second, what great opportunity would she receive after making it onto the Douluo Talents Ranking? If possible, she wanted the Immortal Herb, Qiluo Tulip, because then her father Ning Fengzhi's martial soul could evolve from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda into the Nine-Treasure Glazed Pagoda.

While Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong were overjoyed, Xiao Wu's heart was filled with panic.

Xiao Wu did not know why, but ever since the Golden Ranking had appeared, she had felt uneasy.

That unease was incredibly intense, more intense than ever before.

That sense of unease told Xiao Wu that something bad was likely about to happen.

What could it be?

Xiao Wu had no idea at the moment.

Having lived for tens of thousands of years, this was the first time Xiao Wu had felt such a powerful sense of unease.

Under the watchful eyes of countless people, after revealing the first Soul Master to make the Douluo Talents Ranking, the ranking began introducing her.

The commanding voice echoed across the two continents.

The contents of the golden screen changed once again.

[Zhu Zhuqing, female, is from the Star Luo Empire of Douluo Continent. She is currently a student at Shrek Academy in the Heaven Dou Empire.]

[Although Zhu Zhuqing is young, her achievements are far from insignificant. At only fourteen years old, she is already a Soul Elder with four soul rings!]

[Do not underestimate a Four-Ring Soul Ancestor. Some Soul Masters cultivate for most of their lives and remain nothing more than two-ring Grand Soul Masters. Becoming a three-ring Soul Elder is as difficult and distant as reaching the heavens.]

[Zhu Zhuqing is an agility-attack-type Soul Master.]

[Her martial soul is the Netherworld Spirit Cat.]

[She has a fiancé named Dai Mubai, a prince of the Star Luo Empire.]

Heaven Dou Empire, Shrek Academy, headmaster's office, balcony.

Looking at the contents of the golden screen, Yu Xiaogang's brows furrowed into a deep crease, and an unhappy expression appeared on his face.

Some Soul Masters cultivated for most of their lives and remained nothing more than two-ring Grand Soul Masters? Becoming three-ring Soul Elders was as difficult and distant as reaching the heavens?

Wasn't the Golden Ranking talking about him, Yu Xiaogang?

He, Yu Xiaogang, had a perfectly valid reason, all right!

If his martial soul, Luo Sanpao, had not been such utter trash, how could he still be only a level twenty-nine Grand Soul Master at fifty years old?

If he, Yu Xiaogang, had been given a Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon as his martial soul, he firmly believed that he would at least be an Eight-Ring Soul Douluo by now.

Spirit City, Papal Palace.

Upon hearing the commanding voice and looking at the golden screen in the sky, Ghost Douluo Ghostly developed curiosity and doubt after learning about Zhu Zhuqing. Frowning, he could not help but speak.

"Netherworld Spirit Cat? I remember that martial soul being rather average in strength. Even if Zhu Zhuqing had full innate soul power, it would have been impossible for her to become a Four-Ring Soul Ancestor at fourteen!"

"Something is wrong. There is absolutely something very wrong here! Zhu Zhuqing must have used some kind of treasure to become a Four-Ring Soul Ancestor at fourteen."

After Ghost Douluo Ghostly finished speaking, Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan stepped forward and approached Bibi Dong.

After looking at Bibi Dong, Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan cautiously spoke to her.

"Your Holiness, a fourteen-year-old Four-Ring Soul Ancestor will at the very least become a Peak First Realm Titled Douluo in the future. Moreover, Zhu Zhuqing is the fiancée of Dai Mubai, the third prince of the Star Luo Empire. She is naturally opposed to our Spirit Hall. If such a heavenly genius cannot be used by Spirit Hall, then we fear..."

Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan did not finish her sentence.

Halfway through speaking, she made a gesture in front of Bibi Dong.

A throat-slitting gesture, indicating that they should kill Zhu Zhuqing.

After hearing Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan's words, Bibi Dong fell silent for a moment before parting her crimson lips and saying, "Make the arrangements."

"By your command, Your Holiness!" Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan replied.

The contents of the golden screen continued changing.

The commanding voice continued to ring out.

[At the age of twelve, Zhu Zhuqing left the Star Luo Empire and headed north to the Heaven Dou Empire in search of her fiancé, Dai Mubai.]

[In the end, Zhu Zhuqing found her fiancé Dai Mubai at Shrek Academy and remained there.]

[At Shrek Academy, Zhu Zhuqing met five classmates: Ning Rongrong, Ma Hongjun, Oscar, Xiao Wu, and Tang San. Together with them and Dai Mubai, she formed the Shrek Seven Monsters, meaning seven monster Soul Masters.]

[Later, her classmate Tang San gave Zhu Zhuqing an Immortal Herb. It was precisely because of that Immortal Herb, the Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone, that Zhu Zhuqing became a Four-Ring Soul Ancestor at the age of fourteen.]

[Without the Immortal Herb, Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone?]

[Then Zhu Zhuqing would absolutely never have become a Four-Ring Soul Ancestor at fourteen.]

[Tenth place on the Douluo Talents Ranking: Zhu Zhuqing of Shrek Academy. Introduction complete.]

[The corresponding opportunity is being distributed.]

[Opportunity distribution successful!]

[Name of opportunity: Dark Demon Evil God Tiger Bloodline!]

[Opportunity description: The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger is the strongest tiger-type soul beast on Douluo Continent, without equal! It simultaneously possesses the six great powers of wind, lightning, darkness, evil, time, and space. Its bloodline is extraordinary. The method of use is to drink it. After drinking it, one will obtain unexpected benefits.]

Boom!

As the commanding voice fell silent, a dazzling red meteor shot out from the golden screen, its target being Zhu Zhuqing within Shrek Academy.

[Ninth place on the Douluo Talents Ranking: Feng Xiaotian of Godwind Academy!]
