Douluo Dalu: The Legend of Heavenly Ruler
chapter-160

--- Chapter 160 ---

The following day, in the spirit palace, where the Golden Generation of Spirit Hall lives. Hu Liena slowly opened her eyes and woke up on her bed.

"Today, huh," Hu Liena said while lifting her body from the bed and lightly releasing a yawn.

Hu Liena took her pajamas off and revealed her developed body to the mirror.

"Hmm..." She frowned while rotating her body a little. "Mine is not as big as a teacher."

Hu Liena shook her head and started to wear her usual attire, which white shirt with a purple accent and a plain black skirt. She also wore a stocking that covered her creamy legs.

"This should be fine?" Hu Liena smiled at the mirror and nodded her head in satisfaction.

Hu Liena walked out of her house and moved toward the training ground, where she could see two familiar young men waiting for her.

The first young man was Hu Liena's brother, Xie Yue, and he stood around 5,9 ft with neat black hair. Even though he looks cold outside, he is actually a warm-hearted young man.

"Nana..." Xie Yue muttered with a serene expression when looking at Hu Liena.

"Brother." Hu Liena calmly smiled and gave him a nod.

The other young man suddenly walked past Xie Yue and bowed his body at Hu Liena. "Hu Liena, you are as beautiful as always." He said.

Hue Liena grimaced and indifferently answered, "I already said that I'm not interested in you, Yan."

Yan stood around the same height, and he had fiery red long hair, which draped over his shoulder. He was the opposite of Xie Yue because an arrogant yet confident aura was surging from his body.

"Hee... How sad." Yan chuckled for a moment, even though clearly this is not the first time he got coldly responded to by Hu Liena.

'I won't give up, though.' He thought while shrugging his shoulders.

They walked together to the training ground and found the other member of the Golden Generation, whom Yunlong had fought in the past when Elders wanted to test him.

If Yunlong was here, he might be a little surprised and find this amusing because he could see how much they have improved over the years.

Huo Shun casually laid back on lush grass and opened his eyes when Hu Liena appeared in the training ground, "Senior Liena." He said while smiling at her.

Hu Liena plainly ignored him, which caused Huo Shun to wryly chuckle at himself because Ice Queen really is a befitting title for her.

The twin, who had overcome or not overcome their clown trauma, was casually playing spiritual energy with some animals, leaving the last member of the Golden Generation in the training field.

"Ba Jai, what are you doing?" Hu Liena asked with a frown while looking at the teenage boy, who stood half-naked in the field.

"I'm training, captain." Bai Jai responded with a solemn expression, which caused Hu Liena to frown even more because she has not seen any improvement from him.

Hu Liena released a sigh for a moment and clapped her hand. "Everyone, come here first." She solemnly said.

They walked toward Hu Liena and had weird expressions on their faces because they rarely saw her be this serious.

"You guys know about today's tournament, right...?" Hu Liena asked while looking at her team members, who casually nodded their heads like they don't care about it.

"I'll ask this, are you all confident in winning this fight?" She continued.

"Hehe, of course, we aren't fighting a titled douluo or monster. After all, that woman's disciples were just a bunch of peasants." Ba Jai arrogantly answered with a laugh.

The other didn't say anything about Ba Jai's statement, which means they agree with him.

'What a foolish mindset...' Hu Liena thought while shaking her head.

She looked at the supreme palace and muttered, "If what my teacher said to me was true, we won't even have a chance."

--- Tyrant Academy ---

Su Yanyu just arrived at the academy, and she immediately had news about the tournament, which left her speechless.

"Haa... What actually happened here." She said while looking for Liu Erlong, but sadly she found her presence in the office.

A tall young woman suddenly walked toward her and said, "Ah, yes. The teacher was gone to the Spirit Hal. So you wouldn't find her here."

"W-What? But, she didn't inform me anything about this tournament?" Su Yanyu questioned while fixing her glasses' angle.

"Well, I also didn't know about it until yesterday morning." The young woman responded, which caused Su Yanyu to frown because Liu Erlong wasn't this kind of person.

"Are they ready?" Su Yanyu suddenly asked with a solemn expression.

"Pretty much. This tournament decided our worth after all." The young woman answered with a smile because their academy was looked down on by Spirit Hall's Disciple, especially the Golden Generation, for years.

Su Yanyu couldn't help but massaged her forehead in confusion because this small tournament appeared all of a sudden without any prior notice.

"By the way, who's proposing this tournament?" Su Yanyu asked while looking at the young woman.

"Well, Surprisingly, it was our teacher who suggested this tournament." The young women giggled because Liu Erlong was so unpredictable as always.

Su Yanyu frowned and released a heavy sigh. "...Of course, she would do something like this." She mumbled with a defeated tone.

"Call them to the gate. We'll go to the spirit hall now." She calmly continued, to which the young woman responded with a nod.

As the Golden Generation and Tyrant Academy's Elites were busy preparing themselves for the tournament, Yunlong was casually enjoying his lunch.

"This is good," Yunlong commented while eating Bibi Dong's cooking, which caused her to smile at him.

Yunlong slowly moved his gaze to his maids and naturally said, "I won't enter the fight if I don't find something interesting, so I'll leave it to you."

"We'll do our best." The maids responded at the same time.

--- Tournament Stage---

The Golden Generation, followed by many spirit hall's disciples, had arrived in the tournament area, and they immediately looked around, searching for their enemies.

"They are here." Hu Liena said while looking at Su Yanyu, who had just appeared with her fellow students.

They had a fierce staring contest for a moment, and Liu Erlong suddenly appeared in the arena.

"Hmm... Since you all have already arrived, let's welcome our supreme pontiff first." Liu Erlong calmly stated while facing herself at the throne in the grand podium.

Bibi Dong calmly walked into their vision, and they immediately bowed their bodies at her.

"We Greet the Supreme Pontiff!" They greeted her at the same time, to which Bibi Dong responded with a nod.

"You can get up and show me your worth..." Bibi Dong commented while sitting on her throne.

Liu Erlong smiled a little because she noticed Yunlong standing on a tower near the tournament stage. 'This is going to be interesting.' She thought.
