Luan Feng let out a cold laugh.
"Princess Jiujiu, we have no intention of fighting Xuan Zi.
After all, if a real battle breaks out, it will lead to mass casualties.
Given our status, such an event would be equivalent to Sun Moon declaring war on Star Luo.
At present, Sun Moon has no intention of launching a full scale war against Star Luo, so we don't want to escalate the situation unnecessarily!"
"But this so called strongest expert of Shrek Academy keeps pressuring us.
Even the most patient person would be enraged!"
According to Sun Moon's intelligence, the renowned Bright Holy Dragon, Mu En, had not appeared in public for years.
They suspected that Mu En was long dead.
Thus, in the eyes of many Sun Moon leaders, Xuan Zi was Shrek Academy's strongest fighter.
Xuan Zi scowled.
"I rely asked you to yield a soul bone,
and suddenly, I'm the one 'oppressing' you?"
He snorted.
**"If I recall correctly, that girl from your side,
ng Hongchen, has an Ice type Martial Soul.
Are you seriously saying you're buying this for her?
For Soul Engineers, Soul Bones aren't even that important!"**
Jing Hongchen floated near the entrance of Room 2, assuming a ready to escape posture.
"This soul bone is for Huo Yuhao," he thought.
But since Xuan Zi misunderstood, he didn't bother correcting him.
So misunderstandings were actually beneficial.
Huo Yuhao was still too young, and even a genius needed ti to grow from a sapling into a towering tree.
Jing Hongchen turned to Ye Yulin.
"Ye Yulin! Use the Sun Moon Divine Needle on him!"
Ye Yulin nodded and handed his Rank 9 Fixed Soul Ammunition to Luan Feng.
Then, he retrieved two wooden boxes from his storage ring.
The mont he opened them
Two silver lights shot into the sky.
From above, two beams of silver light descended, forming a shimring aura before him.
Ye Yulin made a lifting gesture, and two golden spheres erged, radiating like miniature suns.
The golden orbs hovered near the silver beams, forming two symtrical pairs
Gold and Silver, rotating around a central core.
In an instant, two massive, radiant spheres ford in midair.
Xuan Zi imdiately felt himself locked on by the Sun Moon Divine Needle.
Yet, surprisingly, he felt relieved.
"So they're still giving an exit…
Otherwise, Ye Yulin would've aid these at Room 1."
If they had locked onto his students, that would've been a true disaster.
Another batch of dead students ant
More revenge.
Another resignation.
The atmosphere in the auction hall was suffocating.
Even Guardian Douluo Cheng Gang looked grim.
This was the overwhelming power of Rank 9 Soul Tools.
anwhile, Xu Jiawei was growing anxious.
"I've acquired intelligence on Sun Moon… I even managed to get my hands on the Sealed God Platform from their Soul Engineers… I know how terrifying their technology is."
The Sun Moon Divine Needle was personally invented by Sky Douluo Ye Yulin.
It required three days of solar and lunar energy absorption before use.
It had three shots, and afterward, it needed to be recharged.
Its range?
30 kiloters.
Its attack type?
Full attribute destruction.
Undeniably, these Sun Moon powerhouses had co prepared.
Against such well prepared enemies, direct combat was not an option.
Only diplomacy could defuse the situation.
Xu Jiawei forced a smile.
"Sky Douluo, this is rely a misunderstanding.
Elder Xuan was just too excited over the soul bone and acted impulsively.
How about…
We both take a step back?
You put away the Sun Moon Divine Needle.
Your companion stores away the Fixed Soul Ammunition.
Elder Xuan returns to Room 1.
And then
We resu bidding fairly."
Xuan Zi gritted his teeth, suppressing his fury.
"Fine.
For Xu Jiawei's sake, I'll back down today."
For the sake of his students' safety, he had no choice.
But Ye Yulin's expression turned icy.
"A step back?
Not impossible.
But…
Xu Jiawei, you should know how heavily Sun Moon Academy was targeted in this year's tournant!"
"In all previous Soul Dueling Tournants, there has never been such a ridiculous restriction on Soul Tools.
And yet, in this tournant, suddenly…
A 'new rule' conveniently appears?"
He narrowed his eyes.
"You wanted to take advantage of Shrek's withdrawal to help Star Luo claim the championship… So you set up this rule, didn't you?"
"I can tell Our students are suffering from this regulation. Unless you repeal this rule and restore fairness to the tournant…
I will not put away the Sun Moon Divine Needle!"
At this mont, Jing Hongchen stepped in, playing the good cop.
"Ye Yulin, don't be like this…
We should still show so respect to the Star Luo Emperor!
One must always leave room for future negotiations."
Ye Yulin snapped, waving him off.
"Hmph! I, Ye Yulin, don't care about others' opinions!"
Jing Hongchen feigned a helpless sigh before turning to Xu Jiawei.
"Your Majesty, don't mind him. Ye Yulin is always like this
He loses his temper when he sees sothing he dislikes.
Even the forr Sun Moon Emperor was once locked onto by his Sun Moon Divine Needle!"
Saring the previous Sun Moon Emperor was no issue.
After all, the current Sun Moon Emperor hated his predecessor.
Xu Jiawei's eyes narrowed.
"They're forcing to make a decision."
His hands clenched.
He had worked so hard to establish the Soul Tool regulation to weaken Sun Moon
To increase Star Luo's chance of winning.
And now, he had to throw it all away?
His gaze swept across the Sun Moon Divine Needle and Fixed Soul Ammunition.
And in that mont
He chose survival.
No matter how much he despised it, he wasn't willing to gamble his life.
He gritted his teeth and clenched his fists in frustration.
"I worked so hard to craft this rule… And now, I have to discard it?!"
Yet, when his gaze fell upon Ye Yulin, he saw cold, unwavering determination.
This wasn't just a bluff. If he refused, Ye Yulin really would open fire.
Xu Jiawei glanced at Xuan Zi, hoping for reassurance.
But then he rembered
"Xuan Zi...has a terrible track record as a team leader." His students kept dying under his watch.
"Relying on him to protect ? No thanks."
Taking a deep breath, he reluctantly conceded. His voice full of 'regret', he declared
"I had my officials draft this rule to protect participants. But… I never expected it would hinder Sun Moon so much. If I had known earlier, I would never have approved it. Clearly, I have evil ministers in my court!
And I shall punish them severely!"
"Thus To restore fairness… The Soul Tool regulation is now abolished! Soul Cannons are no longer restricted!"
