Chapter 1328: Bright Sacred Dragon Crystal?

“Today’s different. The situation is not the same in the spirit soul battle. The strength of a spirit soul is closely related to the strength of the soul master. A Title Douluo’s cultivation base is also vastly different from a Soul Douluo’s. Usually, a soul master will obtain a final spirit soul upon attaining the Title Douluo’s rank. It’ll be his most powerful spirit soul. Although Tang Wulin is strong, his cultivation base is still not at the rank of a Title Douluo yet.”
Dai Tianling said with puzzlement, “From what I know, many Title Douluos obtain an especially powerful spirit soul when they’re at the seven-ring cultivation base. Later on, they’ll keep adding soul rings until they reach nine rings!”
En Ci had a faint smile. “Your Majesty, you’re talking about normal circumstances. Today, we’re going to witness the Battle of Five Gods. There’s no way that Tang Wulin’s opponent is an ordinary Title Douluo. I handpicked this person. You’ll see what I mean soon. Tang Wulin’s chances of winning are slim.”
“Tang Wulin seems to possess a very powerful dragon-type martial soul bloodline. He’ll exert some effects on soul masters of the same rank. Long Yue was affected by him back then. Hence, when I selected his opponent, I intentionally chose one without a dragon-type martial soul. I reckon this match won’t take long.”
“Wow, Principal En Ci has become a fortune teller!” came a cynical voice. En Ci did not even have to look to know who he was. Only one person would be brave enough to speak to him in this manner in front of His Majesty.
When the Smiley Face Douluo sat down on the other side of Dai Tianling, the emperor immediately felt his surroundings were slightly cramped. This newcomer truly had a large body.
“Your Majesty.” the Smiley Face nodded toward Dai Tianling with a smile.
“I see you’re here, Your Excellency. How’s Tang Wulin faring? Did the mecha battle yesterday affect his condition today?” Mecha battles consumed relatively less energy. However, a match such as yesterday’s where both opponents had fought all out using their skills would have used up a lot of their energies.
“There’s no need to worry, Your Majesty. Our Sect Master should be fine. I heard someone predict our Sect Master will lose quickly in today’s match. I wonder who his opponent will be.”
The Smiley Face Douluo did not know what kind of opponent Tang Wulin would face today. The participants of the Battle of Five Gods had to be approved of by Dai Tianling. Dai Tianling gave En Ci the authority to select the participants.
En Ci suddenly smiled. “Fatso, why don’t we make a bet?”
The Smiley Face Douluo glanced at him. “With what?”
En Ci replied, “If I remember correctly, there’s a special place that the Tang Sect owns in the Federation. Many rare spiritual herbs are produced there. If you lose, I’ll get to pick an herb of my choice. Of course, I won’t be the one picking it. It may be one of my disciples.”
The Smiley Face Douluo was stunned. “I refuse.” He did not need to continue any further. The Icefire Polarized Eyes was a highly important place for the Tang Sect. The wager was not the issue. He could not allow it to fall into the hands of an outsider.
“Since when have you become such a coward?” En Ci said jokingly.
The Smiley Face Douluo chuckled. “I think you may have a problem in your head. I’m only in charge of a branch. How can I make any decision regarding the treasured land of ours? How can I use that for a bet with you?”
En Ci replied, “Why don’t you ask the Sect Master of yours? He should be able to decide. Our wagers will be equal in value, just so you know.”
The Smiley Face Douluo said without changing his expression, “Oh? I’d like to know what you are using as a wager.”
En Ci already had a contingency plan all along. He said with a smile, “The Bright Sacred Dragon Crystal. How about that?”
When he heard that, even the Smiley Face Douluo’s steadfastness could not stop him from being shocked. The Bright Sacred Dragon Crystal? Did such an object truly exist? That was his first thought. Nonetheless, he assumed that such an item probably exist. En Ci would not be so cavalier in making such a bold claim.
He stared at this old opponent of his deeply. “You’re sure about this?”
En Ci nodded. “I’m sure.”
Although it was not mentioned explicitly, Hu Jie could guess that the Bright Sacred Dragon Crystal must be extremely important to En Ci.
In modern society, the soul masters cultivated at a faster rate after the appearance of spirit souls. However, their foundations were not as strong as the soul masters of old. Even so, the total number of Limit Douluos on the entire Douluo Star was no more than ten.
Undoubtedly, En Ci’s ability to become a Limit Douluo was connected to the Bright Sacred Dragon Crystal. Perhaps, the dragon crystal worked only on a soul master with the same martial soul. However, the Tang Sect had millions of soul masters. If they could get their hands on such a treasure, it would be highly beneficial to the Tang Sect. Indeed, a Bright Sacred Dragon Crystal was equivalent to a spiritual herb.
“I’ll contact the Sect Master.” This was an important matter. The Smiley Face Douluo stood up and walked away immediately.
As he looked at his receding back, En Ci smiled. Dai Tianling was seated beside him. He clearly felt the sly smile of the Monster Academy’s principal. He was probably keeping something from the others.
A faint smile appeared on his face. Tang Wulin ended the call.
‘So, a Bright Sacred Dragon Crystal? That’s something that I could only wish for!’ The Dragon God had nine children. The Light Dragon King was one of the more powerful ones. The Light Holy Dragon was a light-attribute giant dragon descended from the Light Dragon King’s bloodline. A long time ago when the Dragon Clan were the rulers of the continents, it was at the top of the entire food chain.
The value of a Bright Sacred Dragon Crystal could not be measured in monetary terms alone. Tang Wulin himself possessed the Golden Dragon King bloodline. He was not too excited about possessing a Bright Sacred Dragon Crystal. However, this item would be very useful to his companions instead. Whether it was the holy-attribute Yue Zhengyu or the space-time dragon martial soul of Xie Xie, they would find it beneficial. It could also be used as the core of their four-word battle armors thereby increasing the power of their battle armors.
It seemed the other side was very confident of themselves. Since the Monster Academy’s principal was willing to wager such a precious item, there was no question that he had complete faith in the person he chose. However, what he did not know was that Tang Wulin was also very confident of himself for this upcoming match. He was even more confident than when he fought in the mecha battle.
The Battle of Five Gods was proposed by the Star Luo Empire. On the other hand, the order of the matches was decided by Tang Wulin. It was the custom.
Tang Wulin knew that he had a chance of winning the mecha battle, but he was not completely sure. If he had lost in the mecha battle, he would have to redeem himself by winning the second match. No one knew that Tang Wulin was actually quite confident in winning the spirit soul battle.
Tang Wulin felt relieved after giving some thought to using the spiritual herb as a wager. If he lost, he reckoned that the Monster Academy’s principal would not be elated either. This was because almost every hundred-thousand-year spiritual herb in the Icefire Polarized Eyes was following Tang Wulin around. There was practically no powerful spiritual herb left behind in the place.
It was precisely under these conditions that Tang Wulin agreed to the wager. The mere thought of having a Bright Sacred Dragon Crystal was enough to get the others excited.
At the moment, the chimes that sounded the commencement of the competition were heard. Tang Wulin stood up and tidied his clothes. He then strode out of the room.
The Coliseum.
On the platform, with the emperor Dai Tianling as a witness, the Smiley Face Douluo and the Monster Academy’s principal En Ci had just completed three claps to signify the validation of the wager. Both of them had reserved expressions. From appearances, they both seemed very confident.
At the moment, a pleasant commentating voice was heard.
“The second match of the Battle of Five Gods, the spirit soul battle. I’ll now go over its rules.”
“There was no spirit soul battle during ancient times. The founder of spirit souls is our empire’s ancestor, His Excellency the Spirit Ice Douluo Huo Yuhao. Thanks to his creation of spirit souls, soul masters exist to this day. Hence, this battle is also a tribute to the founder of the Spirit Pagoda, the distinguished expert who created the spirit souls.”
“The rules of the spirit soul battle are as follows. Both soul masters will unleash their spirit souls in the fight. Enhancements to their spirit souls are permitted, but the soul master cannot be directly involved in combat. In other words, the soul masters can only use their enhancing skills while their spirit souls fight. The soul masters cannot use any offensive or defensive skills to support their spirit souls in combat. The competition will end once all spirit souls of a soul master perish.”
The rules were not complicated and were accepted by both parties.
