Soul Land: Raiden Shogun Is My Martial Soul

Chapter 251: The Questioned Kong!

The purple-colored soul ring closely resembled the rings behind Kong, but the participants from the Heaven Dou Empire remembered the true color of Kong's soul rings.

They were red—eight red soul rings, all of them at the hundred-thousand-year level!

"Heavens! What level of powerhouse is he?"

"As a Soul Sage, I can't see through him at all!"

"I'm a Soul Douluo, and I can't see through him either!"

Even with soul power fluctuations and martial souls being released, both Soul Sages and Soul Douluos were unable to discern Kong's precise soul power level. That was a huge problem!

"Six rings, seven rings… hsss, he's already at seven rings, and his soul power fluctuations are still rising!"

"Heavens!"

The entire venue erupted into chaos!

This captain of the Emperor Battle Team… he was actually a Soul Douluo!

It was as if a group of "kids" were fighting, only for a fully armed soldier wielding modern weapons—one with the finest physical conditioning—to suddenly appear among them.

At this moment, Kong was that soldier.

To Soul Sages and high-level experts, the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament was nothing more than a children's brawl. But they were wrong—this tournament had a max-level player!

Yan and the others fell silent. All the spectators, including the competing contestants, were completely stunned.

Only the contestants from the Heaven Dou side snapped out of their daze and laughed. "Haha, now you understand why, despite facing so many Fallen Ones, we still managed to make it here, right?"

"You were all fooled by false information. Those Fallen Ones weren't weak. On the contrary, if it weren't for Kong, even Sword Douluo would have been at risk of falling!"

"This feels so good! We endured and kept our mouths shut just to see the expressions on the Star Luo contestants' faces!"

"Soul Douluo? Impossible! Absolutely impossible! The Emperor Battle Team is cheating!"

"They must have found an old powerhouse to disguise as a youth!"

"Shameless!"

"Referee! Referee, it's time for you to act!"

Once everyone recovered from their initial shock, their first reaction was disbelief—there was no way Kong was a young man. He had to be a Soul Douluo-level powerhouse in disguise.

Dugu Yan being a Soul Emperor was still somewhat believable. Saying she was a prodigy who broke through before the age of twenty-five wasn't entirely impossible.

But a Soul Douluo? That was simply too outrageous. Even among the Fallen Ones, no one had ever reached such an absurd level!

The captain and leader of the Purple Star Team almost shouted in unison, "Referee, we protest! There's no way this Soul Douluo senior is under twenty-five!"

Even in their protest against Kong, they refrained from using foul language—this was a Soul Douluo they were dealing with! They couldn't afford to offend him. That's why they respectfully addressed him as "Soul Douluo senior"—but for the sake of victory…

Well, maybe not even victory. After all, there was still Dugu Yan, a Soul Emperor-level powerhouse.

Still, they couldn't just accept this without protest!

With their words, the entire venue fell silent.

Indeed, who wouldn't doubt Kong's age?

How could someone at his age possibly reach the level of a Soul Douluo?

The Purple Star Team's doubts were justified.

If an experienced Soul Douluo truly disguised himself as a youth to participate in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament, that would be far too outrageous.

This wasn't just breaking the rules—it was outright mocking the tournament itself.

"You all—"

Before Dugu Yan could finish her sentence, Kong, standing beside her, gently took her hand and shook his head.

A young lady shouldn't use such crude words.

Realizing this, Dugu Yan's face flushed red, but she didn't pull her hand away from Kong's. She simply chose not to continue her outburst.

Crack…

Somewhere, the wooden floor beneath Bibi Dong's foot shattered.

That little blond brat was truly flirtatious!

He already had Xue'er, yet he was still getting involved with another girl.

Bibi Dong's eyes glowed red with fury as she clenched her teeth.

As for the Purple Star Team's protest, the referee naturally had to handle it. However, how should he go about it?

He turned toward the judging panel, seeking an answer from them.

"The best method is to test his bone age."

"A single party's claim isn't enough. In that case, let His Eminence from the Spirit Hall and His Eminence Dustheart conduct a bone age test on him."

Kong was a Soul Douluo-level powerhouse, so testing his bone age required the direct involvement of a Title Douluo-level expert.

Chen Xin hesitated to speak because he had seen Ning Fengzhi's gaze.

It was clear that if Chen Xin claimed he had watched Kong grow up, the audience wouldn't believe him. Instead, they would suspect that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was engaging in favoritism.

Rather than facing such doubts, it was better to conduct the test together with a Title Douluo from the Spirit Hall.

Kong was only two months older than Ning Rongrong—both Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin were well aware of this.

In the end, Chen Xin and a Title Douluo from the Spirit Hall stepped forward to test Kong's bone age.

The Spirit Hall's Title Douluo was an "old acquaintance" of Kong—it was none other than Chrysanthemum Douluo, Yue Guan.

At this moment, Yue Guan felt a little embarrassed. Previously, he had assumed that Kong was a Super Douluo at around level 97, but now he realized that Kong's actual strength was only in the 80s.

Well, that didn't change his ability to kill Tang Hao.

"We need you to cooperate for a bone age test," Yue Guan said. He didn't act immediately but instead waited for Kong's response—offending a powerhouse was not something he wanted to do!

Even if Kong hadn't killed Tang Hao, he was still the man of their young mistress, Qian Renxue!

In the Spirit Hall, there was one rule—no matter what happened, never offend anyone with the surname "Qian."

Yue Guan was no fool. He wasn't about to make that mistake.

"No problem, Chrysanthemum Douluo, please go ahead," Kong said with a slight nod. He then retracted his martial soul and soul rings, returning to the same state he had been in before stepping onto the stage.

He extended his right hand toward Yue Guan.

As for his left hand, it was still holding onto Dugu Yan's.

Hearing Kong's agreement, Yue Guan breathed a sigh of relief. It was a good thing he was willing to cooperate—otherwise, he really wouldn't have known how to handle the situation.

Reaching out, Yue Guan grasped Kong's wrist and used a trace of soul power to examine him.

In that moment, Yue Guan's eyes widened in shock, his face filled with disbelief.

The Spirit Hall had information on Kong.

However, Yue Guan had always believed that the report was fake and that his age had been falsified. He assumed that Kong was only slightly younger than their young mistress and around the same age as Hu Liena.

But now, what was he sensing?

"How is this possible… Fourteen years and five months old?"

"How can you be only fourteen?!"

Yue Guan blurted out his thoughts, utterly bewildered.

As a Title Douluo, he had endured decades of training to reach his level.

What was he doing when he was fourteen? A Soul Elder? Or maybe something even lower? He couldn't even remember.

But this monstrous prodigy standing before him was already at level 85!

"Hmph, just because you couldn't do it doesn't mean others can't," Chen Xin snorted coldly. Nonetheless, he still needed to follow protocol.

Placing his hand on Kong's wrist, he proceeded with the test.

He immediately noticed the astonishing strength of Kong's right arm—he must have fused with a high-grade soul bone. However, the bone age was still discernible.

Unlike that useless Li Yusong, he was more than capable of verifying it.
