Chapter 182 This child is terrifyingly powerful; he must not be allowed to live!
On the Battle Arena.
After hearing Dugu Bo's extremely domineering, unreasonable, and blatantly threatening remarks, the referee seemed to have three invisible black lines hanging down his forehead. He looked frustrated and depressed. His lips moved, but he didn't dare to breathe too loudly, let alone utter a word in rebuttal.
Faced with absolute power, so-called rules and principles seem so pale and powerless.
With a cold snort, Dugu Bo ignored the deathly silence in the audience and led Tang Chuan, whose face was calm, and Xiao Ruier, whose eyes were indifferent, to walk down the Soul Battle Stage.
However, they had just reached the edge of the Soul Arena.
He seemed to remember something, and suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Under the watchful eyes of countless terrified figures, Dugu Bo slowly turned around, his cold gaze sweeping once more towards the direction of Shrek Academy and the VIP platform, and added leisurely:
"Oh, right, there's something I need to remind you of."
He deliberately dragged out his words to ensure that every word was clearly heard by everyone.
"I don't care if other people die; it's because they weren't skilled enough or the referee was incompetent."
"But if someone from our Tianxing Academy were to die in an accident during this competition, I can't guarantee that I would still be able to remain as calm and reasonable as I am now."
A threat! This is clearly a blatant threat!
But still, no one dared to utter a sound.
A moment later, the figures of the Tianxing Academy students completely disappeared from the Soul Battle Arena.
All that remained were a completely silent audience and various factions with extremely grim expressions.
…………
A few hours later, the moon was as bright as a silver plate, and the sky was full of stars.
The Hall of Spirits in Heaven Dou City, the Platinum Bishop's Hall.
This hall, which spans over 200 square meters, is extremely luxurious, with a high dome, walls inlaid with magnificent colored glass, and floors paved with smooth, mirror-like black marble.
Within the spacious area, various rare treasures and antique artworks, radiating a shimmering brilliance, were arranged in a pleasingly irregular manner, silently showcasing the owner's distinguished status and immense wealth.
Salas was sitting behind an enormous, somewhat extravagantly ornate desk.
At this moment, his thin fingers were unconsciously tapping on the smooth tabletop, and his deep eyes were flashing with a look of surprise and uncertainty.
Before him lay a document, which had just been urgently retrieved from the Spirit Hall of Notting City through special channels.
The paper of the document was slightly worn, with even some curled edges, indicating that it had been there for quite some time.
At this moment, Salas had read the thin document several times, but his heart was still churning with shock, and he could hardly believe that the records he saw were real.
The information is very detailed, starting from Tang Chuan's first registration at the Spirit Hall to confirm his identity as a Spirit Master.
Then there's the title upgrade he gets each time he receives a Soul Master subsidy and each time he adds a Soul Ring.
However, all the records abruptly ended after Tang Chuan obtained his third spirit ring and became a Spirit Master. This indicates that after Tang Chuan reached the Spirit Sect realm, he never went to the Spirit Hall for further certification, and naturally stopped receiving that subsidy.
This struck Salas as odd, but not incomprehensible. Many members of powerful families or secretive Soul Masters would choose not to claim the subsidies in order to conceal their strength.
What puzzled him most and even made him feel a little terrified was that the file clearly stated in black and white that when Tang Chuan was at the third ring, he had the standard best soul ring ratio of two yellow and one purple!
But today at the Great Soul Arena.
He personally witnessed Tang Chuan reveal his first three spirit rings, which were shockingly two purple and one black!
"What's going on?!" Salas's brows furrowed deeply, his withered fingers unconsciously tightening their grip, almost tearing the fragile paper apart. He muttered to himself:
"Why does his spirit ring configuration completely contradict the early records of the Spirit Hall?"
At this point, he closed his eyes, carefully recalling the immense and solid soul power fluctuations he had felt today, as well as the heart-palpitating pressure emanating from the ten-thousand-year soul ring.
"There's no mistake... Judging from the aura released today, the configuration of two purple and three black spirit rings is absolutely real! It's a power that no illusion or trickery can simulate!"
"Could it be... that this Tang Chuan possesses some kind of strange skill or secret technique that can change the color of spirit rings, or even hide the true age of spirit rings?"
Salas thought about it more and more and more likely it was true, and a chill ran down his spine.
"That's why he was able to perfectly disguise himself as an ordinary Soul Master when he registered with the Spirit Hall in the early stages, thus deceiving our Spirit Hall's eyes and ears, and growing up quietly until he made a name for himself today..."
If that's the case, then Tang Chuan's scheming, talent, and the secrets he might be hiding are far more terrifying than they appear on the surface!
Salas lightly patted his forehead, still unwilling to believe that the spirit ring configuration he saw today was real—a fourteen-year-old with two purple and three black spirit rings!
This is something that has never been seen before or will never be seen again in the entire Douluo Continent.
The next second, Salas suddenly stood up from his large chair and strode to the huge bookshelf that reached the ceiling. His fingers swept over several specific spines and finally accurately pulled out a thick file with gold trim and extraordinary material.
He carefully lifted it back to the table and slowly opened it.
The page is made of the skin of a special soul beast and contains the most core secrets of the Spirit Hall: detailed information about the Golden Generation.
His gaze quickly locked onto the record about Huliena, and Salas murmured softly, his voice filled with an incredulous contrast:
"Among the golden generation nurtured by the Spirit Hall with all its resources, Hu Liena, the most talented and hailed as the direct disciple of His Holiness the Pope, only reached level 40 in spirit power at the age of fifteen... This is already an astonishing talent..."
"But this Tang Chuan, a guy from a small place like Holy Soul Village in Notting City, whose martial soul is the universally acknowledged useless Blue Silver Grass, actually... actually reached level 50 in soul power at the age of fourteen?!"
"This...how is this possible?! Absolutely impossible!"
Salas growled in a low voice, feeling his senses being madly overturned.
Blue Silver Grass? A Soul King at the age of fourteen? This has completely exceeded the scope of genius, reaching an inconceivable and even frightening level!
A tremendous sense of crisis and the thrill of discovering a shocking secret gripped him at the same time.
This matter has far exceeded his ability to handle and understand!
Slowly exhaling a breath of stale air, Salas immediately sat down again, grabbed the specially made letter paper and the pen soaked in soul-guided ink from the table, and with a swift flick of his wrist, wrote a secret letter in the fastest and most concise and precise language.
The letter detailed Tang Chuan's unusual soul ring configuration as seen today, its serious discrepancies with his earlier records, and the inferences about his astonishing cultivation speed.
Finally, he wrote down his conclusion heavily:
"This young man is shrouded in numerous mysteries. His talent and strength far exceed ordinary understanding, and he may possess a shocking secret or a special opportunity. The level of threat he poses to the Spirit Hall is unpredictable. This matter is of great importance and cannot be decided by me alone. I humbly request His Holiness the Pope to make a divine judgment!"
Simply put, this child is terrifyingly powerful and must not be allowed to live!
After writing the last word, Salas quickly placed the letter into an envelope bearing the Spirit Hall's top-secret emblem, sealed it with his soul power, and said in a deep voice:
"Someone come here!"
Suddenly, a dark figure appeared silently in the hall like a ghost.
"Immediately! Present this secret letter directly to His Holiness the Pope as quickly as possible! There must be no delay!" Salas's voice carried an unprecedented solemnity.
Please vote for me! I update every day at 12:00 AM!
