The Snow Night Emperor pulled out a newspaper and handed it to Tang Lan.
"Sect Master Tang is quite quick; you've already started the preliminary publicity."
Tang Lan really didn't have the habit of buying newspapers.
She took it and glanced at it.
—[Level 0 Innate Soul Power Unable to Cultivate? Tang Sect Breaks History, Benefiting Future Generations!]
This headline is good.
It captures the essence of the Shocking News section; it must have been personally crafted by Bai He.
She continued reading.
"After a year of testing, the Tang Sect has helped over a thousand Level 0 Innate Soul Power users break through their limitations and begin cultivation!"
"A significant number of them have already obtained their first Soul Ring, becoming one-ring Soul Masters!"
"Based on this, at the suggestion of Sect Master Tang Lan, 100 eligible Awakened Martial Soul users have been trained to test whether this can influence their Innate Soul Power level."
"The awakening will be broadcast live across the continent today after the Elite Tournament finals!"
"And Sect Master Tang Lan will announce to the world—a piece of news that could change the landscape of the continent!"
"Stay tuned!"
The anticipation was quite high.
For the Douluo natives, who had never experienced such information bombardment, this
had certainly whetted their appetites.
The hype was in place.
Now, as long as the result was ideal, the matter would be considered settled.
Tang Lan put down the newspaper and looked at Emperor Xue Ye.
"I must thank Your Majesty for your generosity."
Emperor Xue Ye's expression was somewhat strange; he wasn't sure if his decision was correct.
But now that things had come to this, there was no turning back.
"Sect Leader Ning, Sect Leader Tang."
"We should also attend and watch today's competition."
With that,
Emperor Xueye rose and walked outside, his steps incredibly swift.
Tang Lan nodded in approval.
—His "decluttering therapy" was quite effective.
Ning Fengzhi also rose and walked alongside Tang Lan.
He tentatively asked, "Brother Lan, what's that news in the newspaper that's changing the landscape of the continent?"
"Brother, are you sure you want to know now?" Tang Lan raised an eyebrow. "Don't blame me for not warning you, if you know now, you'll be in a difficult situation."
Ning Fengzhi was somewhat surprised.
After confirming that Tang Lan was joking, he readily accepted the advice and skipped the topic.
He quickened his pace and walked outside.
"I'm already looking forward to Tang Sect Academy dominating the battlefield!"
"Let's go, let's go!"
Tang Lan shrugged.
This Ning Fengzhi was truly shrewd, not falling for any tricks.
He quickly caught up.
The battleground was in the center of the military camp, with a giant Soul Arena.
There were five seats at the head.
Emperor Xueye sat down in the central seat.
Yu Xiaogang was to his right.
Only two empty seats remained: one below Yu Xiaogang and
one to the left of Emperor Xueye. How should Tang Lan and Ning Fengzhi be seated?
Ning Fengzhi directly pulled Tang Lan to Emperor Xueye's left,
placing Tang Lan below him while he himself sat on the very edge.
In a voice only the two of them could hear, he joked,
"Serving a ruler is like serving a tiger; today, at least we can relax and watch a match."
Tang Lan smiled without saying a word.
Ning Fengzhi's emotional intelligence—no wonder he could support the vast Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Not far away,
Yu Xiaogang sneered and looked down.
Fifteen teams had entered and were preparing in their respective areas.
Emperor Xueye stood up, said a few polite words,
and quickly started the match.
At the same time, he secretly resolved—he would never attend any event where Yu Xiaogang and Tang Lan were present!
This was too much trouble.
The first match was between Tang Sect Academy.
And their opponent,
perhaps it was a twist of fate, was none other than the Blazing Fire Academy.
Huo Wu, seeing her nemesis, was filled with intense hatred. She
was the first to jump onto the field.
Tang Lan scanned her with his spiritual power; level 43.
Not bad.
The second team, with Tai Long and his group, were only level 40; they were truly difficult to deal with.
But
the three who had gone to Seagod Island with Tang Lan were easy prey.
Jing Ling stepped down to the field. Huo
Wu looked disdainful.
"Jing Ling, you only have an ordinary Skeleton Martial Soul; you're no match for me!" "
If you don't want to die, you'd better send someone else down!"
She revealed her Fire Shadow Martial Soul, four spirit rings—yellow, yellow, and purple—exuding immense pressure.
"Level 43 Control-type Battle Soul Master, please enlighten me!" The cold-hearted Jing Ling had no desire to answer. He calmly summoned his ordinary Skeleton Martial Soul. Then the spirit rings lit up— purple! yellow! black! black! Huo Wu's eyes widened! What the hell? How come your first spirit ring is purple? The third and fourth spirit rings... why are they black again? But that's not all. "Level 49 Power Attack Type Battle Spirit Master, please enlighten me!" Huo Wu's eyelids twitched. Level 49? How did this guy jump up there? And weren't you an agility-attack type? How did you become a power attack type? Huo Wu's thoughts were a bit chaotic. But Jing Ling wouldn't show any mercy. The four spirit rings under his feet lit up. His martial spirit transformed into a giant, several meters tall, with a giant bone blade slamming down on him. Huo Wu's "megalophobia" kicked in. She immediately released her third spirit skill, Resist Fire Ring, and a dazzling ring of flames instantly erupted. Although it was only three meters high, it was 60 meters in diameter, covering the entire area. But unfortunately, the spirit skill's forced bounce characteristic only pushed Jing Ling back half a step. Huo Wu herself was still within the attack range of the giant bone blade! "Boom—" The dust settled. It was the Soul Emperor referee who appeared before Huo Wu, activating his Martial Soul Possession to parry the giant bone blade. Two clear footprints were visible in front of him. This six-ring Soul Emperor had actually been forced back two steps by Jing Ling's attack! While there was an element of haste, who among the four-ring Soul Masters would be confident they could achieve this? Even a sneak attack might not be enough! For a moment, everyone looked at Jing Ling, who had withdrawn his Martial Soul, their eyes filled with shock! Why hadn't they seen him make a move in the previous matches? That's right! In the previous matches, Shui Bing'er's first Soul Skill, Ice Seal, could have wiped out the entire arena—no one could escape from the extreme ice. At the head of the table, Ning Fengzhi looked at Jing Ling and couldn't help but sigh. "I paid attention to Jing Ling back then because of his Skeleton Martial Soul." "He was only level 29 a little over a year ago, and now he's level 49?" "And he was originally an agility-based attacker, but switched to a power-based attacker halfway through, and he's still so strong." "Brother Lan, your ability to train Soul Masters is unmatched!" Tang Lan just smiled upon hearing this. Training Jing Ling was just a hobby. It was also Jing Ling's own merit that made him who he is today, since his first Soul Spirit was his natal Soul Spirit. But Yu Xiaogang didn't know that! Looking at Jing Ling's strength, and then thinking back to the training plan he prepared after receiving the information, his stiff face twitched a few times. It's not that you don't know the value, it's that you're afraid of comparing. Compared to Tang Lan, he was indeed inferior, but Yu Xiaogang certainly couldn't admit it! He stubbornly muttered a sentence, forcing Tang Lan to tear him apart. Only to hear—
