Chapter 216: Contact and Conflict, Coercion

Not long after leaving the VIP room, Shu Yan noticed the strangeness behind him.

Looking back, Shu Yan was also a little helpless. Looking at Di Qiu'er following Xu Jiujiu, Shu Yan then cast his gaze on Xu Jiujiu.

"Why did you follow?"

Xu Jiujiu smiled lightly, then said: "This girl heard that you were going to solve this matter, begged me to follow you, and Snow Sister has already gone back. I think this is not a big deal, so I agreed."

Shu Yan rubbed Di Qiu'er's head again, then said:

"It's okay to follow, but you have to be obedient and can't do it casually anymore, you know?"

Di Qiu'er pouted and nodded reluctantly.

The Golden Dragon symbolizes extreme violence, which affects her temperament to some extent. Shu Yan really misses the arrogant and cute Auspicious Beast in the Star Dou Great Forest. In comparison, Di Qiu'er is a little ice lump. Although she is also cute, Shu Yan still prefers the soft and cute big cat that can be touched.

Walking down the rotating stairs at the back, the pedestrians increased again, and the cheers echoed in his ears. Here, you can clearly see the competition platform. The three of them walked two steps, and when their eyes touched the team coming towards them, their footsteps paused strangely.

And the team coming towards them happened to be the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy that had a conflict with Di Qiu'er.

At this time, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy was almost all present. Walking at the forefront was an old man with a bearded face and a tall figure.

The old man's white short hair stood up like steel needles, and the hair on both sides of his temples was connected to his beard, which looked quite fierce, and he didn't look like an easy person to get along with.

Shu Yan could clearly perceive that his cultivation was only at the Soul Douluo level, that is to say, he was a Level 8 Soul Engineer.

And what surprised Shu Yan a little was the old man who was slightly behind him. He didn't observe carefully before, but now that he was close, Shu Yan discovered that this person was actually a Level 91 Titled Douluo, but he had been trying his best to hide his cultivation before, and the cultivation he showed was only about Level 87.

However, this is not important. Nine out of ten Titled Douluo in the Sun Moon Empire are forcibly promoted by drugs. Anyone with a discerning eye can see the pros and cons of this cultivation method.

The two teams were stunned when they noticed each other. Then, the old man leading the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy changed his expression when he saw Di Qiu'er, but before he could speak, a girl with straight silver hair suddenly walked out of the team quickly. Her water-blue eyes were full of anger at this time, but she didn't walk a few steps before being pulled back by a delicate-looking boy.

Xu Jiujiu grabbed Di Qiu'er's arm, and the eyes of the two stunning girls collided in mid-air. For a time, sparks flew, and the surging fighting spirit made the curious passers-by around retreat frequently, for fear of being affected.

Unlike the silence of the two leading old men and the Hongchen siblings, other team members of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy were already clamoring.

Although some of them didn't like the arrogant Hongchen siblings, they were their own people who were beaten after all. In this case, they decisively chose to be consistent with the outside world.

Listening to the somewhat messy discussions in his ears, Di Qiu'er's fists clenched tighter and tighter, but just as her patience was about to reach its limit, the old man leading the Sun Moon side took the lead and scolded:

"All shut up! Whoever dares to talk nonsense again, go and receive punishment yourself after going back."

The old man's stern scolding fell, and the Sun Moon Royal Academy, whether it was the main team or the reserve team, became quiet. The only one unaffected was probably Xiao Hongchen, who still had a smile on his face, and Meng Hongchen, who was standing beside him gnashing her teeth.

Xiao Hongchen glanced at the people behind him, smiled lightly, then stepped forward and said: "My name is Xiao Hongchen, the captain of the reserve team of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy, and this is my sister, Meng Hongchen."

Meng Hongchen was dragged by her brother and was originally angry, but when she looked up and saw Shu Yan's face, the original anger inexplicably dissipated a little, but when her eyes collided with Di Qiu'er's eyes, sparks still flew.

Shu Yan also smiled lightly, then said:

"Shu Yan, team member of the Star Luo National Academy."

Hearing this, Xu Jiujiu raised her head and looked at Shu Yan for some reason, looking a little funny.

Team member? Let Shu Yan, who is actually a Level 89 Soul Douluo and has the real combat power to step on a Titled Douluo to death, be a team member?

If this goes up, I'm afraid the referee doesn't need to care about the life and death of the other team members, and it's the main business to care about his own safety first...

Hearing Shu Yan say this, Xiao Hongchen's expression didn't change, just continued:

"I really hope to compete with you in the tournament later."

"Oh?"

Shu Yan smiled interestingly, then said softly: "You can't be my opponent, my opponent is only myself."

Xiao Hongchen: "...?" If he remembered correctly, this should be his line...

The expression on his face stiffened for a moment, and then Xiao Hongchen returned to his original state. His eyes looked at Di Qiu'er behind Shu Yan, his eyes narrowed slightly, and then he showed his signature smile.

The two old men standing behind the Hongchen siblings looked at each other and didn't act rashly.

Shu Yan's eyes fell on Meng Hongchen for a moment, and then, a clear ice crystal appeared in his hand, and then, he sent it to Meng Hongchen.

"My sister has such a personality and a fiery temper. This is considered compensation for you. Take it. After all, both sides have some problems with this matter."

Meng Hongchen was stunned. The energy contained in this ice crystal in front of her made the martial soul in her body palpitate.

Xiao Hongchen's expression had a subtle change, and then, he gave Meng Hongchen a vague look. Although Meng Hongchen didn't want to give up like this, she finally took it.

Seeing Meng Hongchen take it, Shu Yan's expression didn't change, just continued:

"Which student of your academy was whispering behind the scenes to comment on my sister before? Let him stand out and apologize in person. It just so happens that everyone is here."

As soon as this was said, the expressions of the two old men suddenly sank, and even the members of the two teams who were originally quiet changed their expressions.

Seeing that no one responded for a long time, Shu Yan said somewhat playfully:

"Are the students of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy all so irresponsible?"

"If you have the guts to chatter behind your back, but you don't have the guts to stand out at this time, if you stand out now and be tough, maybe I can look at you highly. Tsk tsk, but now it seems that it's just so-so..."

The words full of sarcasm immediately made the members of the two teams look gloomy. These words were not just insulting the guy who gossiped behind his back, but also scolded the entire Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy.

The next moment, that Ma Lao took a few steps forward, his voice sounded slightly low: "Boy, you have gone too far. Don't think that because this is the Star Luo Empire, the old man dare not punish you."

The majestic pressure came to his face. To this, Shu Yan just snorted coldly, and then, a more terrifying pressure descended. Ma Lao didn't notice it for a while and was forced to retreat two steps, while Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen were more serious, retreating five or six steps and being helped by others before they could stand firm.

"You also know that this is the Star Luo Empire. If you don't want to die, follow the rules of Star Luo. Otherwise, I can't guarantee whether you can return to your homeland alive..."

The gentle expression on Shu Yan's face slowly disappeared. Perhaps it was because he was used to maintaining that gentle appearance, the sudden change was frightening. As frost spread along the crystal clear ground inch by inch, the expressions of Ma Lao and the other old man changed drastically. Then, they released their soul rings together to resist, and only then could they barely withstand the pressure from Shu Yan.

Everyone looked astonished, and even Xiao Hongchen, who had always felt that he could control the overall situation at will, was full of shock and confusion. He had already explored before, and Shu Yan and the three were at most a few years older than him, but now he could suppress the need for a Soul Douluo and a Titled Douluo to release their martial souls to avoid making a fool of themselves in public with his own strength.

With a mixture of emotions, Xiao Hongchen's face turned iron blue, and his fists were clenched tightly. Thinking of the confident and calm way he talked to Shu Yan before, he wanted to dig a hole and bury himself now.

How is it possible! He is clearly only a few years older than me, why is he so strong... How can there be a genius in the world who is more genius than me!

Meng Hongchen's expression was even more astonished. When Shu Yan released his soul power, her martial soul automatically possessed her, as if she had been greatly stimulated. Under multiple shocks, Meng Hongchen's gaze at Shu Yan gradually became complex...

"I'll ask again, does that person really have the guts to stand out? This is the last time."

Shu Yan's voice, which was close to indifference, echoed in the empty hall. Frost had already trapped everyone in the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy in the middle. As time passed, even the defensive soul tool shield taken out by Ma Lao was frozen with cracks by this low temperature. The expressions of Ma Lao and the other old man had completely sunk. The soul tool shield they joined forces to cast could be attacked by a Super Douluo, but it would take some effort. Now, under the pervasive cold of this boy, it showed signs of damage so quickly. Then, to what level has this boy's strength reached? Just then, the Giant Strength Douluo in a black robe suddenly appeared. Looking at this scene, his spirited pupils shrank suddenly, and for a while, he didn't know what to do.

The crowd of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy saw the suddenly appearing Giant Strength Douluo, and before they could speak, they heard Xu Jiujiu, who had not spoken, say: "Retreat, it's none of your business here."

The Giant Strength Douluo realized in an instant, then bowed respectfully:

"Princess, don't worry, this area has been cleared, no one will disturb you. Your subordinate has other important matters, so I won't disturb you."

After saying that, the Giant Strength Douluo turned and left resolutely. As for the crowd of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy, he didn't even look at them...

Crowd of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy: "...?"

so? We are also a part of your play?...
