Douluo: Infinite Lottery System

"Ning Rongrong and I are classmates. How could I possibly bully her?"

Xiao Tianyang furrowed his brows even deeper. Had he even done anything?

Of course, if he had known that a mere threat would lead to a Titled Douluo knocking on his door, he would never have taken on such a troublesome task in the first place.

Whoever wants to go, let them go!

But he wasn't going!

"You claim you don't know?" Sword Douluo sneered. "Since you dared to threaten my girl, I'll give you a small punishment today. Consider it a warning, so you don't develop bad habits!"

"Wait a moment!" Xiao Tianyang suddenly recalled the incident. Yes, he had said a few words—but they weren't even insults, right?

And now someone was already at his door?

Moreover, a Titled Douluo appeared right from the start. Wasn't that a bit shameless?

Still, he remained calm. "I don't believe I did anything wrong. But, if Senior Sword Douluo thinks otherwise, then do as you wish!"

"But think carefully. You're a senior, and I am merely a junior. Teaching me a lesson is one thing, but what about your dignity?"

By normal conventions, now would be the time to say some nice words and de-escalate the situation.

But looking at Sword Douluo's aggressive stance, did this seem like something that could be resolved with mere words?

So, he decided to do the opposite.

And if that didn't work… well, he'd just have to take the beating!

Who told him to enjoy stirring up trouble back then!

"Sharp-tongued brat!"

Nine soul rings lit up around Sword Douluo, rising from beneath his feet. A tremendous pressure bore down directly on Xiao Tianyang!

His knees buckled, and he was forced to kneel on one knee with a groan.

"Woof!"

Bubu, his loyal companion, reacted like an enraged beast. Ignoring the vast difference in strength, he lunged at Sword Douluo!

"Hmph! Even your pet is unruly!"

Sword Douluo snorted coldly. With a wave of his hand, an invisible force crashed down on Bubu, suppressing him to the ground with a pained whimper.

"Chen Xin, you old bastard, are you looking for death?!"

Xiao Tianyang himself showed no reaction, but an enraged roar suddenly erupted from behind him.

A violent gust swept past him, making his body sway.

Sword Douluo's expression changed in shock.

That punch… seemed familiar…

"Boom!"

The Seven Killing Sword materialized in front of him, but even so, Sword Douluo was sent flying backward, crashing through several large trees and boulders!

"Miao Zhenshan!" Sword Douluo's gaze was furious. "Are you crazy?!"

"Oh? You think you can bully my disciple, and I'm the one who's crazy?!"

Miao Zhenshan's long hair fluttered wildly as he stared at Sword Douluo like an enraged lion.

"Your disciple?"

Sword Douluo's gaze flickered as he looked at Xiao Tianyang, pieces of a puzzle coming together in his mind.

The contents of a certain letter resurfaced in his thoughts.

A Grandmaster-level Soul Master who had challenged Zhao Wuji and lasted a full minute unscathed—a peerless genius!

A Martial Soul of flame, and that vertical pupil on his forehead earlier… Twin Martial Souls!

Just as tensions escalated, Zhao Wuji and the others arrived, including Tang San.

When they saw the scene before them, they were dumbfounded.

Two Titled Douluo in a standoff?

With Xiao Tianyang and Bubu standing in the middle?

What in the world was going on?

Ning Rongrong was the first to recognize Sword Douluo. She hurriedly stepped forward but was forced back by the overwhelming aura, shouting from a distance, "Grandpa Chen, what's happening?!"

Miao Zhenshan glanced at the newcomers and realized the situation wasn't as severe as he had initially thought. However, he couldn't just let it go so easily. His tone deepened. "Chen Xin, there are too many children here. Let's settle our matters at other place as the older generation!"

Xiao Tianyang had spent a long time in the Star Dou Forest, gaining a reputation as a reckless lunatic. Miao Zhenshan had deliberately spread the news that he was his disciple to provide him some protection before he could grow strong enough.

This showed how protective Miao Zhenshan was.

And now? His disciple was being bullied?

If he hadn't come to check on him, wouldn't Xiao Tianyang have suffered in silence?

No, this couldn't be left unresolved!

Sword Douluo's expression darkened at the challenge.

However, he had his own pride. "Fine. Name the place!"

"Teacher, let's just drop this," Xiao Tianyang said softly, stepping closer to Miao Zhenshan. "I still have to study at the academy. Let's not make things too tense. Besides, I'm ne—"

"No! That old bastard is shameless, bullying the younger generation as a Title Douluo! How can I let this slide?!"

Miao Zhenshan snorted. "You think he's the only one who protects his own? Why should you back down? With me behind you, you don't have to fear the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!"

"Even if he and Gu Rong team up, this matter isn't over today!"

"Are you sure it can't be settled?" Xiao Tianyang asked again.

Miao Zhenshan replied without hesitation, "Absolutely!"

"Alright then."

Miao Zhenshan was about to speak when Xiao Tianyang casually added, "By the way, my third soul ring is from a sixty-thousand-year-old Xuanjing Evil Phoenix, and I also obtained a pair of external spirit bones."

Miao Zhenshan: "..."

First, he was stunned. Then his expression turned serious. "Are you telling the truth?!"

As an experienced veteran of the Soul Master world, he knew exactly what the Xuanjing Evil Phoenix represented.

Not only was it a mythical beast species, but it was also a symbol of pride among certain soul beast groups!

The inner region of the Star Dou Forest hadn't reacted yet simply because they didn't know.

But once they found out, they would surely retaliate. Even if he and Sword Douluo joined forces, they might not be able to protect these children!

Xiao Tianyang nodded. "I wouldn't lie about this."

Miao Zhenshan exhaled. "Fine, we'll let this go for now."

He turned to Sword Douluo. "For the sake of the children, we'll call it even today. But if it happens again, I'll personally visit the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!"

Finally, he looked at Xiao Tianyang and said in a deep voice, "Let's go!"

He needed to get this kid out of here before his aura attracted the attention of those mythical beast-type soul beasts.

Sword Douluo, still reeling from the sudden turn of events, thought to himself, 'Just how important is this boy to Miao Zhenshan?'
