Chapter 547 Tang Chen Comes West
[Tiandou Empire] Western border, "Hanhai City".

In the VIP box of the one-on-one fighting arena in the vast sea, Ling Yi was sitting on the sofa in the middle with his arm around A Yin.

On another sofa next to them, the two brothers Tang Xiao and Tang Hao sat side by side, each with a different expression.

Ling Yi did not feel uncomfortable because of the presence of the two brothers of Tang family. He opened his mouth to take the crystal grapes fed by Ah Yin. His tongue tip gently slid across the white and tender jade fingers, causing the beauty to blush. Her cheeks were flushed, which was extremely beautiful.

Faced with this scene, Tang Xiao and Tang Hao, as single men, just felt uncomfortable, but seeing the couple interacting intimately, it was difficult for them, as outsiders, to say anything, especially since they had a request from Ling Yi on this trip. Helplessly, they could only force themselves to turn their gaze to the crystal floor-to-ceiling windows in front of the box.

Looking down from the VIP box where the four people were, a huge circular pool came into view. At a rough glance, the diameter was about a hundred meters away!
The clear blue surface of the pool, like a giant sapphire, reflects the figures of the spectators sitting on the sidelines.

At this moment, the reflection in the water matched the movements of the audience below. The warm atmosphere made the brothers Tang Xiao and Tang Hao stare at it even through a layer of crystal floor-to-ceiling windows with excellent sound insulation.

"Brother Yi~" Ah Yin picked up another crystal grape with her jade fingers and fed it to Ling Yi's mouth, while asking, "The next one should be Pearl's turn, right?"

"Hmm~" Ling Yi opened his mouth and bit the crystal grape and his white and tender finger together. After biting them twice, he smiled and replied under the beautiful woman's coquettish gaze: "Yes, after we drew the lot, Zhenzhu said that she was in the third round..."

As he was speaking, he heard the host in the field below begin to warm up the audience. The passionate voice was transmitted into the box through a special soul guide. It was clear but not harsh.

"Next, we will have the third one-on-one soul battle in our first main soul fighting arena. The two three-ring soul masters will appear.

They are respectively the War Soul Lord Hayworth who possesses the weapon spirit "Water-Dividing Harpoon" and the War Soul Lord Purple Pearl who possesses the beast spirit "Sea Viper"——!
As the two star soul masters of our Hanhai Great Soul Fighting Arena, will it be the level 39 Hayworth who will achieve his 14th consecutive victory, or will it be the level 38 Purple Pearl who will end the opponent's winning streak and get his own tenth consecutive victory?
Let's wait and see!

Next, please welcome the two of you to the stage——!”

As the host finished speaking, the cheers from the audience became even louder. At the same time, two figures stepped onto the fighting stage, one on the left and one on the right.

Hayworth is a sturdy man who looks to be in his thirties. He is nearly 1.80 meters tall and is thin overall. However, his streamlined muscles make him look not thin at all.

Compared to Hayworth, more than 80% of the audience's attention was focused on his opponent Purple Pearl.

This is a well-proportioned girl, who looks about fifteen or sixteen years old, with a very beautiful appearance, a high nose bridge, big eyes, and short purple hair that makes her look neat and heroic.

Although she was only fifteen or sixteen years old, under the influence of the power of her martial spirit, the girl had already grown quite maturely, with a tall figure and curvaceous curves.

After Zi Zhenzhu came on stage, she did not look at her opponent. Instead, she raised her head and cast her gaze towards the VIP box number seven above.

Although the crystal floor-to-ceiling windows facing the VIP box were made of specially made single-sided translucent crystal glass, making it impossible to see the people inside the box, Zi Zhenzhu knew that the people in that box were the most distinguished audience on the Douluo Continent.

With reverence in her heart, Zi Zhenzhu withdrew her gaze, looked at the opponent opposite her, and began to summon her martial spirit as the host counted down.

As the martial spirit took possession of her, Purple Pearl, with a few purple scales appearing on her cheeks, leaped into the blue water of the pool.

On the other side, Hayworth looked solemn, tightly grasping the "Water-Dividing Harpoon" in his hand, and also jumped into the water.

Underwater, Zi Zhenzhu's pair of long legs swayed gently like a mermaid's tail, and the whole person rushed towards Hayworth nearly a hundred meters away like an arrow. Her beautiful big purple eyes were not affected by the sea water at all, and she stared at her opponent's every move.

"First Soul Skill: Sea Crab Power——!"

The pale yellow soul ring glowed, and the muscles in Hayworth's arms suddenly thickened. With the infusion of powerful strength, the "Water-Dividing Harpoon" in his hand broke through the sea water and stabbed straight at the oncoming Purple Pearl, without any thought of showing mercy.

As a sea soul master who has recently gained fame in the Vast Sea Soul Arena, Zi Zhenzhu's fame is not based on her beautiful face. The host just said that Zi Zhenzhu had won ten consecutive games after defeating Hayworth, but he did not mention that Zi Zhenzhu started to accumulate wins again after she had won nineteen consecutive games and failed in her cross-level challenge to the Four-Ring Soul Sect.

The underwater undercurrent surged rapidly, and feeling the fierce force of the "Water-Dividing Harpoon", a divine light flashed in the beautiful eyes of Purple Pearl. She stretched out her right hand, avoiding the sharp spike of the harpoon. The jade arm inlaid with lavender translucent scales was as soft as boneless, and quietly wrapped around the long steel handle behind the sharp spike of the harpoon. Five jade fingers stretched out, and the sharp nails flashed with a faint purple luster, grabbing towards the back of Hayworth's hand.

'First Soul Skill: Viper Fang!' + 'Martial Arts Skill: Snake Fist!'

"What a pity~"

In the VIP box No. 7, Ah Yin looked at the battle in the seawater pool below and said with regret: "Weapons are not allowed on this fighting arena. Otherwise, with Zhenzhu's attainments in daggers and whips, she would not have lost the challenge to the 43rd level soul master before..."

"You can't say that~" Ling Yi shook his head and gave a different opinion: "The fighting spirit competition has its own rules. Since you want to go on stage, you must abide by their rules and follow their requirements."

"After losing, saying that you were restricted by the rules or didn't perform well is just self-deceiving."

"You should know that the rules you follow are also followed by others. If others can defeat you under the same rules, they may be able to defeat you again without the corresponding rules."

"Another thing, no matter what the reason, victory is victory, and defeat is defeat. Because you are strong, you win, and because you are weak, you lose."

"The difference between strong and weak is not just about the strength of an individual, but also includes other factors. For example, the formulation of rules is the privilege of the strong."

"For the soul masters participating in the Soul Fighting Arena, the [Great Soul Fighting Arena Alliance] is a strong organization, and the rules they set must be followed..."

Ling Yi's words made Ah Yin thoughtful, and also made Tang Xiao and Tang Hao look sideways. They didn't expect that Ling Yi, who looked gentle and modest, would say such a sentence full of the concept of the survival of the fittest.

Ling Yi didn't care what Tang Xiao and the other man were thinking. He held A Yin's slender waist with his arms and rubbed it gently. He looked at the two fish swimming back and forth and fighting fiercely in the sea pool below. In his mind, he recalled some scenes from his previous life.

Time passed slowly. About a quarter of an hour later, Purple Pearl in the sea water pool, with its stronger strength and physique, quicker reaction and speed, forced Hayworth into a corner of the pool, and then defeated him head-on with a thousand-year soul skill combined with martial arts skills.

…At the gate of the Vast Sea Fighting Spirit Arena, Ling Yi and his group of five met up with Zi Zhenzhu who had arrived, and headed towards the west of the city.

As soon as he returned to the Qingmu Chamber of Commerce’s headquarters in the west of the city, two figures, one black and one yellow, chased after Ling Yi and ran towards him quickly.

Ling Yi reached out and pinched the black shadow's nape, ignoring the resentment in the other's bloodshot eyes, and said helplessly to the yellow dog rubbing against his legs: "Ah Huang, why are you chasing Xiao Hei again? Didn't I say that as long as it doesn't cause trouble, you two can live in peace normally-"

"Woo woo--" Ah Huang whimpered softly, with a silly expression on his face, trying to get away with it.

In response, the black hair on Xiao Hei's back stood up and he glared at Ah Huang with bare teeth. If Ling Yi hadn't been pinching the back of his neck, he would have pounced on him and bit him.

Raising his hand and rubbing Ah Huang's head vigorously, Ling Yi smiled helplessly and threw Xiao Hei in his hand to the side and in front of Miaomiao who was running slowly: "Miaomiao, you should stay behind to look after Xiao Hei. Don't leave Ah Huang and Xiao Hei alone~"

Meow Meow didn't say anything, but just nodded gently, with the tail behind it swaying slightly, and the posture was very elegant.

Turning his head to look at Tang Xiao and Tang Hao who were looking at Xiao Hei with suspicion, Ling Yi said, "You two, let's take a rest today and go out to sea by boat tomorrow. What do you think?"

"No problem!" Tang Xiao retracted his gaze towards Xiao Hei and nodded his head without hesitation, "For my sake, Master Ling, please lead the way in person. Tang Xiao will be grateful to you. I will definitely follow your lead along the way!"

"Not really~ Not really~" Ling Yi smiled and waved his hand, saying in a gentle voice: "If there is anything, let's discuss it. By the way, when will Senior Tang Sheng arrive? Do you need me to arrange someone to go to the city gate to greet him?"

"No, no, no, no." Tang Xiao shook his head and declined politely: "My uncle (Bai He) sent me a message yesterday. Uncle will arrive at Hanhai City this afternoon. My brother Hao and I will go to the city gate to greet him later..."

"Well~" Ling Yi nodded slightly and did not force it.

After saying goodbye to Ling Yi, Ah Yin, and Zi Zhenzhu, Tang Xiao led Tang Hao out of the gate of the Qingmu Chamber of Commerce Hanhai City Station and turned around to continue walking towards the end of the street. The hotel where the two brothers were staying was over there.

"Brother, why do I feel that there is something wrong with the little black cat that Ling Yi raised?"

In a street-facing room on the third floor of the hotel, Tang Hao stood by the window, looking at the tall building a hundred meters away, and asked in a low voice.

Hearing this, Tang Xiao also fell into deep thought and nodded slowly: "Yes, something is wrong. When I first saw the little black cat two years ago, I found that it was very intelligent and its appearance was quite unique. However, I was concentrating on the Giant Spirit Sky-Breaking Hammer at that time and didn't pay much attention to it."

“Although the aura of the black cat is not very strong, it looks just like an ordinary hundred-year-old soul beast, far inferior to the two yellow dogs and gray cat raised by Ling Yi, and even inferior to the black horse, but I always feel that the black cat seems very dangerous…” A hint of doubt appeared on Tang Hao's face, and there was also a hint of solemnity.

"Because it's not a cat, but a tiger, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger--!"

At this moment, a deep, powerful voice came into the ears of Tang Xiao and Tang Hao from outside the door.

The next second, under the two brothers' frowning and wary gazes, the door was pushed open from the outside, revealing a handsome face.

"Grandpa?!"*2
Looking at that handsome face, the guard on the faces of the two brothers Tang Xiao and Tang Hao disappeared, replaced by a look of surprise.

The person who came turned out to be their grandfather Tang Chen!

"Grandpa, can you come out from there?" Tang Xiao hurriedly walked forward, greeted Tang Chen into the house, and asked at the same time.

Tang Zhen had specifically asked Tang Chen to return to "Haoyang Cliff" and take charge of "Haotian Sect" before, but Tang Chen refused on the grounds that he had no choice but to leave the area within a hundred miles of Hanshi Town.

From Tang Chen's mouth, the Tang family's father and son all learned some secret information about the divine test, and they also understood that they were powerless. It was an established fact that Tang Chen was restricted by the Shura God's divine test, and that he could not pass it and could not leave the radiation range of the divine power of the "City of Slaughter".

"I just have a temporary mission to go out~" Tang Chen sat on the chair and said in that old voice.

Not long ago, Bai He told Tang Chen the news that Tang Xiao was about to go out to sea to hunt down an "evil killer whale" in the West Sea that had been cultivating for nearly 100,000 years.

This is what Tang Zhen meant.

In Tang Zhen's impression, Tang Chen had a certain friendship with the high priest of [Sea God Island] in the West Sea. Before, the two brothers Tang Xiao and Tang Hao had helped Tang Chen deliver letters.

Therefore, Tang Zhen hoped that Tang Chen could write another letter, not asking [Sea God Island] to provide any help, but at least not to mess up this soul hunting.

After all, the [Spirit Hall] had nothing to do before, so it sent thousands of spirit masters there, trying to recruit the sea spirit masters on the [Sea God Island], but they ended up being taught a lesson.

Although the Spirit Hall returned with a defeat and suffered heavy losses, the Sea God Island was also not doing well at the time. As a result, over the years, the sea soul masters of the Sea God Island have never had a good impression of the land soul masters.

After getting the news about the three soul beasts, "Ice Bear King", "Lava Troll" and "Evil Demon Killer Whale" from Ling Yi, Tang Xiao finally chose the "Evil Demon Killer Whale" from the West Sea after careful consideration.

As the dominant group among sea soul masters, the strength of the "Evil Killer Whales" is undoubtedly extremely strong.

If it was a hunting group of "Evil Killer Whales", Tang Xiao would definitely not do this. After all, in the sea, if he broke into a group of "Evil Killer Whales", let alone successfully hunting the target, he would be lucky not to be torn to pieces by the "Evil Killer Whales" that attacked in groups.

Fortunately, according to the information provided by Ling Yi, this "Evil Killer Whale" was so powerful that it posed a subtle threat to the status of the "Evil Killer Whale King" in the tribe. It was driven away from the group and became a lone wolf, a soft persimmon.

In comparison, although the "Ice Bear King" and the "Lava Troll" are also solitary, there are a large number of other high-age soul beasts around where they live. If they are not careful, they may be besieged and fall into a situation where they are attacked from all sides.

In addition, one of these two has mainly ice attributes, and the other has mainly fire and earth attributes, which cannot form a system with the attributes of Tang Xiao’s first eight soul rings. After thinking it over again and again, he finally chose the "Evil Demon Killer Whale".
