Soul Land IV (Douluo Dalu) : Ultimate Fighting-Novel

Chapter 466 – The Red Haired Youth And The Honest Youth

TL : GoldenLung

After being reprimanded, Lan Xuanyu admited his wrongs: “Teacher, I was wrong. I will work hard.” With that, he quickly ran away.

However, he was thinking that if he won today, he would be able to mobilize over 70 purple emblems! He didn’t believe that he wouldn’t be able to bribe someone. At least he would not hurt to try it, right?

The second year-skipping challenge came. This time, there were obviously more people than the day before because the third years were all here.

As Lan Xuanyu was participating in the battle, he wasn’t in the spectator stand but in the candidate passageway.

He narrowed his eyes and waited quietly.

“Big Brother Xuanyu, what are you thinking about?” Yuanen Huihui’s voice suddenly came to his ears.

“Cough cough.” Lan Xuanyu coughed. He couldn’t possibly tell Huihui that he was considering how many emblems he could use to bribe the seniors, right?

“Nothing, I was thinking about tactics,” Lan Xuanyu said righteously.

“What’s there to think about? We will definitely win. I will definitely defeat her with my own hands, even if she has her Battle Armor.” Yuanen Huihui appeared very confident.

“But the problem is that our opponent today isn’t the person you’re thinking of,” Lan Xuanyu laughed.

Yuanen Huihui was stunned. Right at this moment, the participants entered the arena.

Lan Xuanyu walked in front while Yuanen Huihui and Bing Tianliang followed behind him. The three of them walked out together.

“Class leader, go for it! First years, invincible!” A loud voice suddenly came from the spectator stand. The first years shouted in unison.

At this moment, on the other side of the spectator stand, there were two young men sitting in an inconspicuous corner.

The young man on the left was crossing his legs and his red hair fluttered in the wind. He was handsome and even had a hint of seductiveness. “Juniors are really confident these days!”

Sitting to his right was a rather dull-looking young man. He looked very honest and they were all wearing green uniforms.

“Confidence comes from strength. The accumulation of momentum is very important. Recently, I’ve been researching how much strength I can unleash with different kinds of momentum,” the honest-looking young man said thoughtfully.

“Do you think the first years will win today?” The red-haired youth asked.

The honest young man said, “It should be possible. I saw Tang Yuge on the spectator stand. If the third years’ representative was Tang Yuge, she would have a higher chance of winning. She already has six rings. With her Five Elements Qilin Martial Soul, after reaching five rings, every ring will allow her to ascend to a new level. She’s very strong. If it’s not her fighting, it should be difficult for anyone else to win. After his Second Awakening, that first year Yuanen Huihui will become very strong in the future.”

“Surpass you?” The red-haired youth asked with a faint smile.

The honest young man replied honestly, “That would be a little difficult.” It was as if he was stating a fact and didn’t have the slightest hint of flaunting. The red-haired young man seemed to think that he was right and nodded sincerely.

“It’s too difficult to surpass a monster like you. Speaking of which, why aren’t you in the Inner Court already ? You’re really annoying for still remaining in the Outer Court. If you were to leave, I would become number one,” the red-haired youth said in annoyance.

The honest young man sighed softly and said, “Even if I leave, there are at least two people in our class that you might not be a match for. After all, the difference of a year is still a year.”

The corners of the red-haired youth’s mouth twitched. “Will you die if you don’t tell the truth? I’ve been traumatized by you for so many years.”

The honest young man smiled. “Get used to it.”

The red-haired youth suddenly flew into a rage. “I’m used to your big head. That honest face of yours is such a scam for a black-hearted fella like you. You’re the worst. Hmph!”

The honest young man said indifferently, “Instead of saying this, why don’t you think about what to do when you will challenge me? I heard that the Beast God Di Tian is going to transcend his tribulation this time. If he passes it, he will become a Divine Beast. But I heard it is very difficult. The chances of him dying this time are very high. So, at any moment before the tribulation, he might choose to become a spirit soul and re-cultivate for another lifetime. That is why the Inner Court and Outer Court will select elites to go and see if they have a chance of being chosen by him. If one has a spirit soul like the Golden-eyed Black Dragon King, he will definitely become a god.”

The red-haired youth swallowed his saliva. “Don’t tempt me. I definitely have a spot. After winning against the fourth years and adding in our original spots, that makes two. Even if I lose to you, I still have one left.”

The honest young man said, “Don’t you want to bring your little girlfriend over? Actually, her Martial Soul has a higher chance than yours.”

The red-haired youth said, “Then you’ll let me?”

The honest youth said, “A black emblem, I’ll consider it.”

The red-haired youth was stunned. “Are you serious? You don’t want a spirit soul like the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King?”

The honest young man replied indifferently, “I don’t want it. I have my own cultivation path and the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King might not be suitable for me. Furthermore, I don’t have any place left for him anymore. Unless I become a god.”

The red-haired youth suddenly cried out, “You, you broke through to eight-ring?”

The honest youth raised a finger. “A black emblem. Think about it carefully.”

The red-haired youth suddenly deflated like a balloon. “Just you wait, I’ll surpass you sooner or later. I’m leaving, I’ll see if I can get it. I’ll keep my word.”

The honest young man nodded his head. “Of course, I can’t give in to you directly, but I can promise that when you challenge me, I won’t use my Battle Armor. This way, your chances of winning will be quite high. When the time comes, I will say that being challenged by a lower year and not using my Battle Armor is the honor of being a senior.”

The red-haired youth’s eyes lit up. “I admire your ability to spout nonsense with a straight face. Let’s go.” With that said, he did not look at the upcoming match anymore and quickly got up to leave.

A faint smile appeared on the honest young man’s face. “Sigh, a superiority in intellect really leaves one helpless sometimes. That is the Beast God of a generation, the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King, and the King of the Beasts, Di Tian! With his pride, how could he become a spirit soul for humans? Some people just have unrealistic expectations. Also, even not wearing my Battle Armor...” At this point, he shook his head gently, and the smile on his face seemed to become even wider.

A black emblem, just thinking about it was a wonderful thing.

At this moment, both parties had entered the arena.

When Yuanen Huihui saw that tall figure, his face was filled with surprise. He wasn’t the only one; Bing Tianliang was the same.

That’s right, the one who appeared before them was not Tang Yuge, the top student of the third years, but the Golden Skeleton King soul master, Sima Xian, who had once represented the third years in their six-against-six matches after becoming the class leader.

Sima Xian had a tall stature that far surpassed his peers. His two-meter tall frame was extremely muscular and carried an invisible imposing aura.

“Why isn’t it Tang Yuge?” Yuanen Huihui turned to Lan Xuanyu and asked. He didn’t know why, but when he saw that the opponent was Sima Xian, he suddenly felt an intense unwillingness in his heart. It wasn’t for himself, but for Tang Yuge.

Tang Yuge was clearly the strongest among the third years ! But at this moment, she wasn’t the one representing the third years. It was as if his heart was stuck in his throat and Yuanen Huihui felt extremely uncomfortable.

Lan Xuanyu said, “Yuge’s situation among the third years doesn’t seem too good. This should be the decision of their class. At least for our battle, this is obviously a good thing.”

Yuanen Huihui pursed his lips. “It should have been hers. She’s the strongest among the third years.”

Lan Xuanyu patted him on the shoulder. “Do you want to fight with Yuge or are you feeling unfair for her?”

Yuanen Huihui looked at him with a complicated gaze and suddenly shook his head gently. “I don’t know either.”

At this moment, both parties were already in the center of the arena, a hundred meters away from each other.
