Chapter 135.2: Hallmaster of the Illustrious Virtue Hall, Jing Hongchen
Jing Hongchen was the one who was shocked now. He was already shocked when he had been discovered. With the concealment-type soul tool that he had created himself, he believed that he was undiscoverable as long as he didnt move. But Elder Xuan managed to trace him. He was even more surprised that Elder Xuan invited him into the Sea Gods Pavilion.
Jing Hongchen hesitated. The Sea Gods Pavilion was probably a place that was easy to enter, but not easy to leave! After all, this was Shrek Academy. Although he had sufficient cards in his hands, Shrek Academy had been established for many years, and was ever-present on the Douluo Continent. It was also because of Shrek that the Sun Moon Empire had many misgivings and proceeded cautiously. They didnt dare to act recklessly even though they had sufficient resources.
Sea Gods Pavilion. What a Sea Gods Pavilion!
Elder Xuan walked in front of the Sea Gods Pavilion before turning around and joking, What? As the Hallmaster of the Illustrious Virtue Hall, you dont dare to enter the Sea Gods Pavilion? Why are you here since that is the case?
Jing Hongchen pricked his brows. His haughtiness was even greater than Du Busis. He had only appeared now because he didnt want to mix with the Body Sect and affect his reputation. After being provoked by Elder Xuan, he laughed loudly before walking into the Sea Gods Pavilion with big steps.
Elder Mu revealed a slight smile on his face and was in awe of Elder Xuan in his heart. Elder Xuan was indeed an expert in human psychology! The simple action of inviting Jing Hongchen into the Sea Gods Pavilion greatly diminished his mighty aura.
After entering the Sea Gods Pavilion first level, Jing Hongchens gaze moved around the entire level. He was slightly stunned. It was obvious that he could tell that the Sea Gods Pavilion was extraordinary.
Elder Xuan walked to the golden tree seats at one side of the first level before sitting down. He also gestured for Jing Hongchen to take a seat.
Jing Hongchen didnt stand on ceremony either. He smiled at Elder Xuan before sitting opposite him.
Neither of them spoke first, and they only stared at each other as they sat there. But the air around them was about to solidify because of their auras.
Elder Xuan and Jing Hongchen had similar auras they were very pressing. But the difference was that Elder Xuans aura appeared foundationally stable like the earth, whereas Jing Hongchens aura originated from a suppression that might be unleashed at anytime.
It seems like soul tools can help a soul master to a certain standard. Your cultivation is only around Rank 93, but you can stabilize yourself in front of me. Elder Xuan said slowly.
Jing Hongchen smiled and replied, I believe that soul tool research is only in its preliminary stage. The world belongs to soul tools in the future. When the day comes when soul tools no longer rely on soul masters soul power as a motivation, soul masters will be eliminated. I wonder if Elder Xuan is convinced by this belief.
Elder Xuan replied coldly, It doesnt matter whether I believe it or not. Anyway, you wont live to see that day.
Its not important whether Ill live to see that day, Jing Hongchen said very casually, its enough if it happens in the Sun Moon Empire, and it will happen in the Sun Moon Empire. Star Luo, Heavenly Soul, Dou Ling and even your Shrek Academy are too far off in the aspect of soul tools.
Elder Xuan laughed, Oh? Are we that far off? I dont think so. Since when were you able to exploit this gap to defeat Shrek Academy? We only sent half of our main forces for the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Dueling Tournament that just ended. But we still won. This proves that your advantage in soul tools is not decisive yet.
