The arrogance and nonchalance on Du Busi's face had subsided considerably, replaced by an unprecedented solemnity and scrutiny.
He spoke in a deep voice, with a hint of confirmation. "You... are Kong Deming?"
"That's right, I am Kong Deming!"
Kong Deming remained calm. When he captured Xuan Zi in front of everyone at Star Luo Plaza, he knew that after keeping a low profile for so many years, his name would probably be known throughout the continent.
He continued, "I presume your disciples have already conveyed my meaning to you, Huo Yuhao... You cannot take him away now."
Despite Kong Deming's feat of capturing Xuan Zi alive, Du Busi was wary of him.
But as the sect master of the Body Sect and Super Douluo at the peak of Level 98, his pride and absolute confidence in his own strength were even greater!
He came here to Jieyin Huo Yuhao back to the sect, so why would he back down because of Kong Deming's words?
Whether or not we can take it away depends on our skills!
Du Busi roared, like the howl of an ancient beast, shaking the entire academy.
He stopped wasting words and decided to use the most direct method to assess Kong Deming's capabilities.
boom!!!
A terrifying dark green light erupted from his body, shooting straight into the sky and turning the entire sky above him into a suffocating and violent dark green.
His body underwent a dramatic transformation!
With a series of teeth-grinding cracking sounds, his body rapidly expanded like an inflating balloon, transforming in the blink of an eye into a dark green giant over fifty meters tall!
The giant's muscles were bulging, as if carved from the hardest rock, yet they were full of Life and explosive power.
Even more chilling were the nine Soul Ring rising from beneath his feet!
Two yellows, two purples, two blacks, and three reds!
The three bright red Soul Ring, each representing a level of 100,000 years, shone brightly, radiating terrifying energy fluctuations that sent shivers down one's spine!
" Kong Deming, take this Laozi!"
The giant formed from the Du Busi body roared, its sound waves rolling.
He didn't use any fancy Soul Skill; it was just the simplest, purest, and most domineering punch.
The dark green fist crashed down like a meteor, its pure force compressing the air and forming a visible white barrier.
This punch contained the ultimate power of the Body Martial Soul; it was simple yet extremely violent!
The hearts of everyone in the Sun Moon Empire were in their throats. Jing Hongchen, standing next to Kong Deming, clenched his fists instinctively, as he could feel the power of the punch more directly than the others.
The power of that punch would likely be enough to easily destroy a small fortress.
Despite the devastating punch, Kong Deming remained calm.
He didn't even make any dodging motion; he simply slowly raised his right hand.
The moment he raised his hand, the silver light around him suddenly radiated, seeming to have a strange resonance with the vitality of the surrounding heaven and earth.
At the same time, the space in front of him as he raised his hand rippled violently like water, with layers of silver light rapidly overlapping and condensing.
In the blink of an eye, a seemingly thin, yet seemingly containing endless spatial layers, circular shield was formed, protecting him and Jing Hongchen within it.
Du Busi's terrifying punch, powerful enough to shatter mountains and split rocks, slammed heavily onto the seemingly thin silver shield.
The anticipated massive explosion did not occur.
The fist, imbued with terrifying power, slammed into an invincible spatial quagmire.
The immense force of the punch was frantically swallowed and dispersed by the layers of silver light.
A ripple spread across the surface of the silver shield, yet it remained incredibly resilient and did not break.
Du Busi's enormous eyes revealed genuine astonishment, and only at this moment did he truly believe that Xuan Zi had fallen into Kong Deming's hands.
Kong Deming easily deflected Du Busi's punch, which made him even more wary, but he did not back down.
He roared, and the dark green light around him surged again. His three 100,000-year-old Soul Ring shone as brightly as blood-red suns, clearly indicating that he was about to unleash his true killing move.
However, Kong Deming had already lost patience.
Since the other party has chosen to take action, there is no need for further words.
For a powerhouse of this level, only by overwhelming them with absolute force can Du Busi possibly follow their plan.
Kong Deming's Life-Bound Soul Tool, the Silver Moon Divine Light Shield, was the first Level 10 Soul Tool in history.
Its main function is protection and containment; it is not very effective in direct confrontation with the enemy.
He raised his hands in front of him, and an exquisitely crafted, strange sphere, composed of countless intricate silver and gold rings arranged in a nest-like pattern, appeared out of thin air, hovering above his palms and slowly rotating.
This is the true form of the Silver Moon Divine Light Shield.
"Buzz!"
As Kong Deming's Soul Power was injected, the silver sphere suddenly burst forth with indescribable dazzling brilliance.
It was not an explosive shock, but a silvery glow as gentle as mercury spilling onto the ground or as soft as moonlight.
To everyone's astonishment, a silver "moon" seemed to appear out of thin air and rose into the sky, its radiance even temporarily eclipsing the sun's glow.
The entire Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, and the surrounding area, were instantly enveloped in a pure and tranquil silver kingdom.
The scene that once amazed all the audiences above Star Luo City is being recreated here once again!
"Ugh!"
The dark green giant, transformed from the Du Busi, was the first to be hit, and his roar abruptly ceased.
He felt that the immense power and overwhelming momentum he had gathered were thrown into an invisible quagmire the moment the silver light shone down, becoming heavy and difficult to operate, more than ten times more difficult.
Below, everyone watched this breathtaking scene.
Xian Lin'er's face turned deathly pale. She had finally witnessed with her own eyes the terrifying Soul Tool that had captured Xuan Zi alive!
Its power was simply beyond imagination; it was able to so easily imprison a Level 98 Super Body Douluo, and even the more than 20 powerful figures he brought were now trapped within the ever-shrinking silver light shield.
No matter how they attacked, it seemed they couldn't damage the silver light shield in the slightest.
The one who reacted most violently was Xuan Zi.
In the instant the Silver Moon rose and its silvery light fell, Xuan Zi reacted as if by stress, his whole body trembled, his face turned ashen, his pupils contracted violently, and he was filled with undisguised fear.
Within the Silver Moon Divine Light Shield, Du Busi was filled with shock and rage. He frantically channeled his Soul Power, and his three red Soul Ring flashed wildly, attempting to break free from the constraints of this silver space.
Dark green qi and blood smoke soared into the sky, but the Silver Moon, though seemingly gentle, was incredibly resilient. No matter how he attacked, he could only cause more ripples in the silver light, and could not break through it at all.
Du Busi's current reaction is exactly the same as Xuan Zi's before.
Both of them can be described as Super Douluo extremely strong physical strength, and their styles of doing things are somewhat similar; they both like to use force to suppress others.
However, this pair of "twin stars" were unlucky. Even if they encountered Super Douluo like Long Xiaoyao, they could escape. But Kong Deming's Silver Moon Divine Light Shield was the most effective counter to reckless people like them.
All they saw was the silver light shield gradually shrinking until it finally turned into a point of light and disappeared into the sky.
Kong Deming hovered beneath the Silver Moon, his silver Battle Armor blending seamlessly with the silvery light of the sky, making him appear like a god.
Cheers erupted from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy. The aura displayed by the invading enemies had terrified them, but they hadn't expected to be dealt with so quickly.
Kong Deming vanished silently from everyone's sight in mid-air, along with the silvery light that filled the sky, and the sun's rays once again bathed the earth.
Meanwhile, in front of the teaching building where the Inner Court's office was located, Kong Deming's figure reappeared beside Kong Xuan.
He remained calm, as if he had just done something insignificant.
He glanced at Xian Lin'er, who was looking at him, and said, "What are you still standing here for? Hurry up and go back to the Shrek Academy and bring me the Soul Bone!"
"Yes, we'll leave now."
Xian Lin'er's tone became increasingly respectful as she pulled Xuan Zi towards the exit of the academy.
Having witnessed what just happened, even without a Soul Tool to record the conversation, she would absolutely not dare to break the contract.
If Kong Deming were to storm Shrek Academy in a fit of rage, even if all the academy's elders joined forces, they would be no match for him.
Even with Mu En, whom she held in the highest esteem, she dared not claim she could defeat Kong Deming!
