Douluo: A Century-old Legend I Am the Second Uncle Chenxin

Chapter 617 Something is wrong with this world

Chen Xiaojun's eyes were solemn. He listened attentively to Mu Zilian and Li Jinghua's detailed explanation, his eyes fixed on the fantastic scene in front of him.

I saw a group of strong men called "Emperors" moving nimbly on the huge arena. Their figures were unpredictable like ghosts, and every confrontation was accompanied by strong energy fluctuations.

Chen Xiaojun's thoughts were attracted by the strange and colorful pictures. He saw the scenes of Douluo Continent that he was once familiar with, but they seemed to be subtly different.

He frowned slightly and shook his head gently, trying to dispel the sudden doubt.

At this moment, his mind was replaying scenes like a movie:

Those familiar names of people and places;

Those soul masters, numbering up to millions, as numerous as stars;
There is also the unique and mysterious Qingteng clan and the elusive beast of destiny;
He clearly recalled the name of Fengxian Tengwang with the word "Xian" in it;
and the mysterious, ever-moving secret realm of the first Angel God.

Every detail jumped vividly before his eyes.

Oh, and there are also unexpected systems, strange lottery conditions and scenes.

A chill quietly rose from deep in his spine and quickly spread throughout his body like an icy snake's tongue, making him shiver involuntarily.

Many speculations and questions emerged in his mind: "Is it just that "Douluo Dalu" cannot fully describe the vastness and depth of this world?"

"Or is this a parallel world to Douluo Continent?"

"Or maybe it's a larger world based on Douluo and incorporating various other elements?"

"Even, could this be a testing ground for some big boss who controls the universe, used to study, observe, or control everything?"

Chen Xiaojun's heart was rolling like a rough sea, filled with endless mysteries and confusions. His eyes were no longer as calm as before, but became deep.

His eyes wandered ahead, as if he was searching for some answer, but it seemed so far away.

Just when Chen Xiaojun was immersed in his own thoughts, Xiaoyi quietly walked to his side.

She always seemed to be able to keenly capture Chen Xiaojun's emotional changes, like a silently guarding elf.

She gently stretched out her hand and tenderly held Chen Xiaojun's hand with her boneless fingers.

Xiaoyi has always been so taciturn, but her presence is like a warm force, always appearing when Chen Xiaojun needs her.

Unlike other people, she does not express her emotions with words. Instead, she looks at the world with her unique "heart's eyes" and uses her inner perception to illuminate everything in the world.

Feeling Xiaoyi's tenderness, Chen Xiaojun felt a warm current in his heart.

He held Xiaoyi's hand tightly, as if he wanted to lock this warmth firmly in his heart.

Then, he clapped his hands gently, as if to cheer himself up, and also as if to tell Xiaoyi that he would definitely find the answer.

Xixi, who was standing by, saw this scene and first looked at them in a daze, then revealed an expression of astonishment. Her bright phoenix eyes widened as if she wanted to see into the depths of Chen Xiaojun and Xiaoyi's souls.

Her little mouth opened slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she couldn't say it.

Xixi's astonishment did not interrupt Chen Xiaojun's thoughts. He was still immersed in the exploration and questioning of this strange world.

He looked at the figures of the "emperors" on the stage in front of him. Those gorgeous soul skills and powerful aura all demonstrated their extraordinary strength.

The more he traveled in this world, the more he felt that it was more unfathomable than the Douluo Continent he knew in his previous life. He turned his head and looked at Xiaoyi. No matter how complicated and unknown this world was, with Xiaoyi by his side, he had the courage to face everything.

Xiaoyi's silent support made him feel extremely at ease.

"Xiaoyi, what do you think this world will be like?" Chen Xiaojun asked softly, as if talking to himself.

Xiaoyi smiled slightly and did not answer directly, but asked back: "What is the world in your mind like?"

Chen Xiaojun was stunned for a moment, then took a deep breath and said slowly: "I don't know, but I am willing to explore and uncover the truth of this world."

"Well, I'll accompany you!"

........................

Ji Boxiao was proud, waved his fist, cheered with the crowd, and uttered a few simple words: "It's over."

Ji Bochang glanced at the gloomy members of Tiandou Team 2 and couldn't help but said contemptuously: "Tiandou Team 2? Humph, nothing more than that."

Indeed, the performance of Tiandou Team 2 was extremely ugly. They never had the upper hand for a single moment and were suppressed from the beginning to the end.

Liu Ruxue looked at the place where the battle ended, her eyes full of envy as she whispered, "My sister and brother-in-law are indeed much better than us in terms of the level of cultivation and application of their inheritance."

Liu Ruyi jumped up excitedly, waving her hands in the air: "Oh yeah! Tiandou Academy lost all three battles. They definitely didn't expect this result when they came here."

Mu Zilian shook her head slightly and corrected him, "The so-called three losses in all three games, the first two games were just Xiaojun's brother and his team turning the tide, especially the second game, our victory was not entirely dependent on our own strength."

Li Jinghua stepped forward and bowed deeply to Chen Xiaojun: "Mr. Chen, thank you for your help this time."

Chen Xiaojun smiled slightly, waved his hand and said, "You're welcome, it's just a coincidence."

“As exciting as it is to watch a group fight, the true strength of a team can only be shown in the higher academic departments,” someone added.

Li Jinghua nodded: "Well, the third battle is the highlight, but they only sent two teams. If they sent one team, they might not win."

Mu Zilian took over the conversation and said, "However, this is also the result of their wide recruitment of talents from all over the world. It is not that the people in their central district are better than us in Fasno."

Li Jinghua nodded in agreement: "Poaching people is also a kind of strength."

Suddenly, a figure hurriedly ran to Li Jinghua and whispered something in his ear.

After hearing this, Li Jinghua said to Chen Xiaojun, "Mr. Chen, on behalf of the academy, I would like to express my gratitude to you again. In addition, our vice president, Elder Ku Rong, would like to invite Mr. Chen to come over for a chat."

Chen Xiaojun pondered for a moment, then bowed and said, "Teacher Li, I am very grateful. But the sun is setting and evening is approaching. We still need to return home. I am afraid that we will disappoint the Vice President's kindness this time. Next time, I will pay you a visit and apologize in person."

He was the most popular person today and his strength was fully demonstrated. He roughly guessed why old man Ku Rong wanted to see him, so he politely declined.

Li Jinghua looked embarrassed: "This..."

Xixi suddenly interrupted and said with a naughty smile: "Old man, don't block us from eating. Everyone is hungry, let's go celebrate!"

Xixi's tone of voice was not heavy and her words were clear, but she had a kind of restrained majesty, worthy of being the Saint of Poseidon Island.
