Douluo Dalu: The Legend of The Spider Emperor

"Xiao San? You're back?"

Tang San put down the broom and looked at Old Jack, who was standing at the door. He quickly asked, "Grandpa Jack, what brought you here?"

"Come in and sit for a bit," Old Jack replied with a smile. "No need for that; you all stay busy. By the way, your father left this letter for you before he left.

As he handed the letter to Tang San, Old Jack could not help but complain, "Your father is completely irresponsible. He talks about reclaiming his property. Sigh—"

"Grandpa Jack, take care," Tang San said as he wished him goodbye.

Tang San sat alone at the door after Old Jack had left, staring at the yellowed paper in front of him and the letter written by Tang Hao before his departure.

Tang San fell silent for a moment.

Ye Hao sat on a small stool nearby. He knew exactly what Tang Hao had written in the letter, so why bother? He could not follow the protagonist's path. Ye Hao would have to embark on his own journey after graduating from the Notting Junior Soul Master Academy.

At night, the back mountain of Holy Soul Village transformed into a beautiful garden, with all kinds of flowers blooming under the night sky, creating a vibrant scene.

Ye Hao lay among the flowers, inhaling the fragrance, and his mood immediately improved.

Ye Hao could not muster the enthusiasm to watch Tang San and Xiao Wu swear oaths under the moonlight. After all, if you want to be a sister, one day there will be many people wanting to kill me, but those people are not ones you can handle.

"Then let them step over my corpse first."

Tang San spoke to Xiao Wu.

Gazing at Tang San and Xiao Wu "under the flowers and moon," Ye Hao felt a sense of loneliness that he could not explain. He had neither friends nor family when he arrived on the Douluo Continent. Damn the system...

Ye Hao silently cursed the system for its inaction. He shivered as he saw the display of affection between the two in front of him. He could not stay as a single dog any longer.

Ye Hao's figure vanished into the night as he decided to leave the mountain...

Five years later...

Outside of Heaven Dou City, in the Sunset Forest...

A group of men and women dressed in Heaven Dou Royal Academy uniforms surrounded a purple-winged demon spider. A girl with emerald hair and eyes led them, and her lower body transformed into a green snaketail while chasing the spider.

A handsome young man stood next to her, his right hand replaced with a blue dragon claw, and he attacked the fleeing Purple-Winged Demon Spider while surrounded by fast-moving lightning.

"That purple-winged demon spider is so fast, Tianheng!" the emerald-haired girl said to the young man.

The young man nodded in understanding. Three soul rings slowly rose beneath his feet, and behind him appeared a blue dragon, coiled and dense with lightning, giving him the appearance of a descended deity.

The configuration consists of two yellow and one purple soul ring.

"First Soul Skill: Thunder Dragon Claw."

With that, Yu Tianheng's right hand was enveloped in lightning, and a dragon claw formed from the lightning lunged at the Purple-Winged Demon Spider. As the heir of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon clan on the Douluo continent, he possessed the world's most powerful beast martial soul, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon.

The Purple-Winged Demon Spider quickly dodged, and Yu Tianheng's Thunder Dragon Claw missed.

Yu Tianheng was briefly stunned. This purple-winged demon spider had incredible speed, and he then looked up at the sky.

"Yu Feng!"

In the sky above the Sunset Forest, a Heaven Dou Royal Academy student flew by with wings on his back. His martial soul was the Wind Spirit Bird.

Yu Feng nodded and activated three soul rings that matched Yu Tianheng's. He gently flapped his wings, causing a gust of wind to sweep through the silent forest. The Purple-Winged Demon Spider's form flickered and remained unaffected.

This scene surprised both Yu Tianheng and Yu Feng slightly.

As the only flying soul beast among all the spider-type soul beasts, the Purple-Winged Demon Spider was naturally fast, and they could understand that. But this was just a thousand-year-old Purple-Winged Demon Spider; it should not be able to move so fast.

The forest was dense and complex. Chasing down a thousand-year-old soul beast was difficult enough, let alone one that could fly and outrun the Yu Feng.

Just as the Purple-Winged Demon Spider was feeling good about itself, a figure emerged from the trees, standing 1.75 meters tall, with a handsome face, eight spider spears on his back, black armor, and a pair of crimson eyes fixed on the flying Purple-Winged Demon Spider.

This person was also wearing the Heaven Dou Royal Academy uniform. One yellow and one purple soul ring shone beneath his feet as he moved like a whirlwind through the forest, unaffected by the massive tree trunks.

"Second Soul Skill: Spider Web."

The young man murmured, and the second thousand-year soul ring lit up. His hands quickly turned black, and two black webs laced with lethal spider venom shot out.

The Purple-Winged Demon Spider frantically attempted to flee, but the webs quickly corroded the trees where it had previously been.

Realizing the danger, the Purple-Winged Demon Spider attempted to flee, but the young man appeared right in front of it.

The young man's hands morphed into two massive spider spears, emanating a chilling killing intent. The spears descended quickly, easily piercing the Purple-Winged Demon Spider's body before falling rapidly.

A loud "boom" struck the solid ground, resulting in a deep pit. The young man's spider spears pierced the spider's body, continuously injecting the lethal death spider poison.

The Purple-Winged Demon Spider suddenly convulsed beneath the young man's feet. Its entire body became abnormal, and its eyes seemed to burst. After shaking for a while, the spider finally settled down.

Seeing this, the young man drew his spider spears and returned to his original handsome appearance.

Five years had passed, five full years...

Ye Hao inhaled deeply as he looked up at the azure sky.

"From the looks of it, Tang San and Xiao Wu should have attended Shrek Academy."

This person was Ye Hao. After leaving Holy Soul Village, he returned to Notting City and completed his studies at the Notting Junior Soul Master Academy a few years later.

At the time, the Master approached Ye Hao alone and asked him to enroll in Shrek Academy, a "High-Level Soul Master Academy."

He spoke endlessly about how wonderful and well-equipped Shrek Academy was, and after successfully convincing Tang San and Xiao Wu, he discovered Ye Hao to be resistant to both soft and hard tactics.

Ye Hao was an undeniable genius in the eyes of the master. Ye Hao, Tang San, and Xiao Wu all reached level 20 around the same time.

At the time, the entire Notting Junior Soul Master Academy was in uproar. Who had ever advanced to level 20 at such a young age?

Following a bottleneck in their soul power, the three went to the Soul Hunting Forest, guided by the Master and several school leaders, in search of their corresponding soul rings.
