Douluo Dalu: The Legend of Heavenly Ruler

--- Chapter 240 ---

Boom! Clank! Crack!

The entire stage was wavering with many noises, yet Liu Erlong calmly observed these kids with uninterested looks.

Even though some of them did flashy techniques, Liu Erlong's eyes always briefly glanced back at Yunlong for some reason.

"Hmm? Is he sleeping?" Liu Erlong silently observed Yunlong, who calmly leaned on a wall.

A dim silver light was escaping his eyes a few times, but besides that, he didn't look any different from casual sleeping.

--- inside the stage ---

BOOM! ARRRGGGHHH!

The golden generation moved swiftly through the battleground and attacked everyone without any remorse.

Hu Liena calmly caught an incoming fist and heavily kicked the person away because fireballs were coming toward her. "They clearly weren't afraid to attack us." She commented.

Su Yanyu arrived at Hu Liena's side and casually replied, "They thought we couldn't see them inside this mist, making them really fearless."

"Well, fighting more than 50 people every morning was breakfast for me at this point." She added while throwing a wind spear at the fireballs, which caused a fiery tornado.

BOOM!

The tornado swept 1/4 of the arena and caused a first-degree burn to some teams that couldn't defend themselves,

"Hmm?" Su Yanyu noticed a cold air appeared out of nowhere, causing the temperature to drop rapidly.

"Yan." Hu Liena indifferently commanded.

A fiery shadow flew to the air, and a wide grin quickly was plastered onto his burning face.

BOOM!

"Tremor Blast!" Yan delivered a heavy fist, which rapidly caused a hot explosion on the stage, preventing the sudden temperature change.

Zhu Zhuyun casually observed this scene with her team and skillfully hid in the mist because fighting in this place didn't really have a meaning.

"We only have to pass after all?" She slowly smirked while stabbing someone's chest with her sharp fingernails.

"Ah yes, I can't kill someone here." Zhu Zhuyun suddenly realized something and immediately pulled her fingernails back.

"Haha... My bad."

The person looked at her with terrified looks on his face, yet he couldn't do anything and fainted because of fear.

"You already fainted, ew." Zhu Zhuyun couldn't help but feel disgusted for some reason.

She slowly wavered her gaze away and noticed a familiar face out of the barrier, which caused her face to redden immediately.

"Young master..." Zhu Zhuyun's breath unknowingly became heavier in a matter of a second. "He's here."

"Are you still dreaming about him?" Dai Weisi monotonously commented with a stoic expression. "Well, it's not that important... Calm your breath down. You're exposing our cover."

Zhu Zhuyun frowned when hearing Dai Weisi's statement and released a huff of annoyment. She calmed her breathing quickly, but a moistness was left behind within her thighs.

"Hmph, let's clear this area first." Zhu Zhuyun slowly lifted her body from the ground and briefly observed the golden generation, which surprisingly didn't catch her attention at all.

"They are quite strong." She casually commented while disappearing into the mist.

Far away from any team, Shrek Seven Devils calmly maintained their position from others and created havoc between them.

They didn't attack carelessly and silently watched other teams one by one fall on the stage.

Tang San's purple demon eyes shone dimly in the mist. He naturally observed the golden generation and frowned solemnly because spirit hall's brightest team was more dominant than he thought.

"Tang San, are you ready for the next plan?" Ma Xiaotao suddenly asked, to which he responded with a nod.

"It's about an hour, we could stay here for a few moments, but the round would be prolonged." Tang San slowly activated his blue silver grass. "We couldn't let this chance down."

They deliberately provoke some team to create chaos so people will fight against each other, which obviously exhausted them.

When the one-hour time limit was close, Tang San would quickly spread his blue silver grass to the entire stage and poison everyone with his spirit skill.

Even though it sounds really sinister, only cunning people will survive this world.

"Eat the antidote pill I gave to you guys after my mark." Tang San commented while touching the white-paved floor.

He closed his eyes for a moment and felt the surrounding concrete gradually became entangled with blue roots.

"Oscar." Tang San opened his mouth, to which his teammate responded with a nod.

"I, your father, have a pink sausage." Oscar shamelessly chanted, and pink sausage appeared, which could buff all attributes up to 10%.

He was lucky enough to get his fourth spirit ring before the tournament with Ning Rongrong's clan help. Even though he was indebted, he didn't really have that much choice.

"Here." Oscar threw his pink sausage at Tang San, which he caught with his left hand.

Tang San devoured the sausage and opened his eyes, feeling his entire body filled with strength.

Hu Liena, Su Yanyu, and other teams abruptly felt the ground vibrate slightly.

"This..." Zhu Zhuyun looked down and noticed blue silver grass burst out of the floor.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! ARRRGGGHHH!

"Parasite." Tang San clenched his fist, and several teams swiftly were trapped in blue silver grass.

"What is this..."

"My body."

"Poison!"

"Someone dares to play dirty and poison the entire stage."

"Hey, come out!"

"You scumbag, fight me directly!"

Several angry tantrums filled the stage, but Tang San couldn't care less about them because strong people were already coming toward him.

"They find us in the end." Tang San smiled slightly and grasped a hidden weapon from his sleeve.

He shook his head and added, "It's too late to attack us, though."

Hu Liena and Su Yanyu finally saw the person who literally poisoned the entire stage, which surprised them because it was a common-looking black-haired boy.

They were about to launch a powerful attack toward Tang San, but the barrier abruptly opened, and Liu Erlong stepped onto the stage.

"First Round Ended." Liu Erlong declared, which left everyone speechless because some of them couldn't accept this result.

A few contestants wanted to protest at Liu Erlong, but her cold eyes were enough to shut them up.

"Even though the result is rather surprising." Liu Erlong commented while moving her gaze to Tang San. "The mastermind didn't use lethal poison and only paralysed all of you."

"However, He or other teams, who didn't paralyze, could easily kill you guys if they wanted to... Well, the rule restricted it." She added while shrugging her shoulders.

They moved their gazes to Tang San and hatefully looked at him for a few minutes.

"What a shameless person."

"I bet his teacher taught him to play dirty like this."

Tang San calmly listened to every ridicule directed at himself, but he didn't care and deafened his ear to those baseless insults.

"My team passed to the next round, and that's what matters." He whispered while closing his eyes.

"I'll announce 16 teams that passed the first round." Liu Erlong calmly pulled a board out of nowhere.

"Spirit Hall's golden generation."

"Star Luo Imperial Academy."

"Heaven Dou Imperial Academy."

"Thunderclap Academy."

"Skywater Academy."

"Blazing Academy."

"Godwind Academy."

"Silver Mountain Academy."

"Thousand Lake Sect."

"Ironwood City's Team."

"Northern Beast's Team."

"Mirage Sky Sect."

"West Martial School."

"East Martial School."

"Dark Forest's Team."

"And finally..." Liu Erlong grinned slightly because everyone hurriedly moved their gaze to Shrek Seven Devils.

"Shrek Academy."

"I have announced 16 teams that passed the first round, so you may have one day to rest before we continue to the next round." Liu Erlong indifferently stated while walking away.

Yunlong suddenly approached Bibi Dong's throne and looked at the stage for a moment. "That was boring." He casually commented, which left everyone speechless.

"Huh, who's this person actually?"

"He never really does anything and just sleeps there."

Bibi Dong raised her hand to catch everyone's attention and gently answered, "That young man is the spirit hall's holy son."

"EHHH!"

"WHAT!!"

"I never knew that the spirit hall had a holy son?"

Bibi Dong shook her head and naturally warned, "I informed all of you not to provoke him because no one in this place could stop him."

They are looking at Yunlong in awe, but a few people clearly have some loose screws and quietly badmouthed him, not realizing their position.

"Hmph... just another snotty brat who hides behind his huge background."

"Yeah, just your usual pretty boy."

Bibi Dong didn't say anything, but her eyes gleamed with black luster for a few seconds.

"Well, with this." Bibi Dong announced. "The first day of the continental tournament ended."

She smiled and added, "Have a nice day."

Yunlong approached Bibi Dong, and they left the venue, followed by Liu Erlong from behind.

"Are you done explaining the situation to your maids?" Bibi Dong asked while walking beside Yunlong.

"They understand and chose to be on my side," Yunlong answered, to which Bbi Dong responded with a nod.

"That's understandable." Bibi Dong gently smiled while giving him a peck on the cheek.

Liu Erlong quietly watched this and shook her head because this scene didn't cause any jealousy in her heart.

"She wants to tease me, knowing it wouldn't work." Liu Erlong muttered with a sigh. "What a woman."

Bibi Dong chuckled a little, but she only smirked after hearing Liu Erlong's response. "Who wants to tease you? I only want to kiss my Yunlong."

"Yeah, sure." Liu Erlong swayed her head away.

Yunlong glanced at the shadow who followed them and moved his gaze to Bibi Dong. "Don't kill those people yet." He said.

"They still have their own uses."

"I know, don't worry." Bibi Dong's eyes gleamed with dark light.

She simply nodded her head because people who badmouthed her beloved son deserved more than death.
