Douluo Dalu: Legend Of Xiao Yan

"So... You guys just met?" Xiao Wu, riding on Tang San's back, asked in confusion as she looked at her two companions, Xiao Yan and Xun Er, and theirs named Zhu Zhuqing.

A couple of days passed and Xiao Yan, Xun Er, Tang San, Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing are currently heading their way to finding where the so-called Shrek Academy is.

And Zhu Zhuqing had tag along with Xiao Yan and Xun Er when they told her that they were going to enroll in the same academy that she was going to as well.

"Yup. Just ran into her, not literally, when Xun Er and I was just having chicken drumsticks. I kinda thought that she was interesting so I, uh, talked to her." Xiao Yan replied with a casual wave of his hand. Due to looking at the road in front of him Xiao Yan wasn't able to see Xun Er and Zhu Zhuqing raising one of their eyebrows at the same time.

They were walking besides him, with Xun Er at his left and Zhu Zhuqing at his right, but Xun Er was more closer in proximity with him, they were a bit amused at the bs Xiao Yan was spewing.

Instead of talking to her, Xiao Yan had basically stood frozen and stared at her in shock like he had fallen in love at her at first sight, which he rebuked loudly at, they looked at each other and shook their heads.

For the past couple of days they had acquainted with each other, Xun Er and Zhu Zhuqing could be said as frie-nemies, as they would throw insults at each other once in a while as well as start some small competitions, Xiao Yan strangely had felt some pride and joy when he saw Xun Er making a friend.

Xiao Wu's eyes blinked and a teasing smile appeared on her face.

"Hmm... So Xiao Yan-gege's spring has finally arrived! Ah, to think that I, your one and only cutest sister, Xiao Wu, would finally get to see you in love. Sniff, ah, to think that he would grow up so fast..." Somehow, Xiao Wu got a tissue and was wiping tears of joy from her eyes.

While Tang San chuckled, Xun Er looking a little strange and Zhu Zhuqing stone faced as always but her face cheeks turned a little pink.

Xiao Wu continued 'crying' and being all dramatic.

Xiao Yan continued staring at Xiao Wu for several minutes until she just released a long sigh and put away the tissue. The tears from her eyes disappeared as if it weren't there.

"Xiao Yan-gege, why do you always ruin my fun?" Xiao Wu said with a monotonous voice.

"Cause it's both fun and amusing." Xiao Yan replied with a grin.

Tang San, Xun Er and Zhu Zhuqing shook their heads in amus.e.m.e.nt as they watched the sworn siblings 'argue' with each other.

Turning his head away from watching his sworn siblings drama, Tang San blinked his eyes as he saw a small village, smaller than Holy Spirit Village, just several meters away from them. What was most peculiar about said village is, using his Purple Demon Eyes, he saw a small queue of people lining in front of the entrance of the village.

Now this wouldn't have garnered his attention, as it was pretty common to see a group of people lining up just to go into villages, towns and cities; due to security and all, but this was pretty strange as he saw some other people than the ones lining up walking into the village.

With a raised eyebrow, Tang San called out to the group as he pointed where the village is.

"Guys. I see a village just several meters away from here, and I think something's going on."

Within a couple of minutes they arrive at the entrance of the village where the line of the examination for Shrek Academy.

Xiao Yan watched as the scene of what he had read on the novel happened in front of his very eyes; a father letting his son take the first examination, only to be rejected, Dai Mubai revealing himself like a thug as he released his White Tiger spirit and his three spirit rings, Xiao Yan glanced at Zhu Zhuqing to momentarily see her form trembling before she composed herself, another family tried their luck, rejected as well and now the old man at the desk showed off his six spirit rings. Showcasing that he was a spirit emperor that you don't mess with.

Then a slight view of Ning Rongrong, Dai Mubai being a wolf instead a cat for a moment, that moment had caused the atmosphere around Zhu Zhuqing to instantly fell cold, Xiao Yan strangely felt an urge to slug the bastard Dai Mubai, and now it was their group's turn.

Dai Mubai's cold eyes and grim expression turned a bit soft as he cast his gaze on Tang San and Xiao Wu, respect and awe clearly seen in his eyes, Xiao Yan mused that Tang San had probably won against their fight yesterday.

He turned his head to looked at Xiao Yan and Xun Er with a confused expression and slowly his head turned to see Zhu Zhuqing's cold stone face.

His expression turned complex, various feelings flashed through his eyes, but then shook his head as he turned back towards Tang San, his emotions fixed into a resigned one, and smirked.

He tilted his head towards the teacher as if saying; 'come on, don't be shy, it's your turn'.

Tang San sighed as he stepped forward.

The old man, the examiner, raised one of his eyebrows, impatient expression clearly plastered on his face.

"All five of us are applying together."

The old man nodded and started to inspect all five of their bodies by their hands.

Xiao Wu, Xun Er and Zhu Zhuqing easily passed through. While Tang San and Xiao Yan took a bit longer as they both cultivated the Mysterious Jade Hands.

The old man nodded at the group of five youths and said.

"Good, now release your spirits."

Tang San, Xiao Wu, Xiao Yan, Xun Er and Zhu Zhuqing looked at each other, simultaneously urging the spirit power within their bodies.

Blue, red, green, gold and black light simultaneously leapt out, differing spirit rings simultaneously spiraling up.

Rabbit ears standing up, white fluffy fur growing on the backs of Xiao Wu's hands, body subsequently also becoming even more slender. Spirit jade rabbit body enhancement.

Two yellow and one purple spirit rings appeared underneath her feet. 2 hundred year old spirit rings and an impressive 1 one thousand year spirit ring! It caused everyone around her, except Dai Mubai who had a twitching lip, to dropped their jaws and their eyes almost popping out.

In Tang San's palm grew a most ordinary blue silver grass, along with spirit ring effect infusion lightning quick transforming into that grass vine like that day he fought Dai Mubai.

Though the surface of his blue silver grass seemed to have a web like structures. It's toughness and poison more powerful than ever. Two yellow and one purple spirit rings appeared underneath his feet. Same as Xiao Wu, Tang San had 2 hundred year old spirit rings and 1 thousand year old spirit ring. Which caused the expressions around the crowd to be more comical than before.

Cat ears standing up, adorable and eye catching, Zhu Zhuqing's both eyes simultaneously change with the left eye becoming dark green and right eye clear blue. The long hair naturally remained docile on her back. Her fingers changed into sharp claws.

Two yellow spirit rings appeared that signified she had 2 hundred year old spirit rings. This caused the crowd, including the examiner and Dai Mubai, to momentarily sighed in relief before shaking their heads.

Though that wouldn't last for long as Xiao Yan released his spirit.

The temperature around them suddenly rised five folds, causing the muggles(A/N: You know what this mean) around to sweat like buckets, they almost looked as if they were doused by rainfall, and they slowly started to pant.

The ground shook for a moment that caused a few people to stumble and almost lost their footing. The participants, examiner, Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing turned to look at the caused and soon after they found it, they stared dumbfounded.

There standing incredibly fearsome and awesome was a two and five meters in length, twelve inches wide, black obsidian, with green vein like structures going down from the handle to the tip, dull ruler.

A fearsome heat energy rolled around it in green wisps. A sudden pressure seem to press down everyone, although those that are spirit masters are fine, the normal people wasn't so lucky and had go down their knees. Cold sweat dripped down their foreheads like a water faucet.

The examiner noticed their trouble and had immediately erected a spirit power barriers around those that couldn't handle the sudden release of pressure from the black/green ruler.

After seeing that they were now okay, the old man turned to looked at the black ruler's owner, which was Xiao Yan. He was about to say to him to unsummon his spirit until the words he was about to say got stuck in his throat.

Gripping the massively huge Heavy Xuan Ruler, that easily toppled him in both height and mass, in his right hand to bring it up high like it was nothing and then with a smug grin he put it at the crook of his neck. Two purple light shine brightly beneath his feet 2 thousand year old spirit rings.

It caused everyone, except Tang San, Xiao Wu and Xun Er, to once again dropped their jaws to the ground and eyes almost popping out of their sockets. Shock, awe and disbelief clearly plastered on all of their faces.

2... 2 purple spirit rings! 2 thousand year old spirit rings! And it appeared on a twelve year old.

Due to the fact that this was the first timeline of the Douluo Dalu series, it was no wonder that they would be shock silly until to the point of being brain dead.

The examiner, Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing, thanks to their experience and discipline, had already shook off their disbelief. Looking at each other, except Zhu Zhuqing looked down to stare at the ground, a single thought flashed through their eyes.

'A genius, no, a true monster!'

This was a once in a hundred years monster that would have great accomplishments in the future, if he was nurtured properly, and would shake the entire continent. It was already guaranteed that, in their eyes, Xiao Yan would be a very powerful Titled Douluo.

In everyone's eyes, Xiao Yan was a legend.

But Tang San, Xiao Wu and Xiao Yan shook their heads as if they knew what was on everyone's minds. Tang San merely had a casual smile on his face and Xiao Wu giggled as a mischievous expression appeared on her face.

Suddenly, the already hot atmosphere around everyone started to rise once more. In fact, it was like a piece of the sun itself had dropped down on them. Everyone, including those that shielded, felt the every increasing heat around them. They felt like being bathed in the flames of a furnace.

As one, everyone turned to the source of the heat, and as one, most of the surrounding people fainted in either due to shock, fear or disbelief.

Heck, Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing was even among those that had fainted.

While the old examiner set his shock and disbelief filled eyes at the last member of the group.

On Xun Er's right hand open palm was a small golf sized golden flame, the heat coming off it was the source of the sudden rise of the surrounding temperature, as well as wisps of golden flames flickering all around her body.

But that wasn't what set the eyes of the conscious crowd around her, no, it was the three spirit rings beneath her feet.

Purple, purple and black spirit rings. 2 thousand year old spirit rings and 1 ten-thousand year old spirit ring.

'Forget monster... This, this girl is...' What the old man thought. Cold sweat dripping down his forehead. The heat seemed to even affect him. Which further shocked him.

'She's above all monsters... The one above all...

The Queen of Monsters...' Turning his head towards a certain boy, an amusing thought entered his mind for a moment.

'...Heh, looks like I'm witnessing the first King and Queen of Monsters. I wonder if I could get a raise for this from that money grubber?'
