Chapter 16 An Uninvited Guest Arrives Without Being Asked
The Heavenly Dou Royal Academy is located outside Heavenly Dou City, approximately eighteen kilometers away.
The environment here is beautiful, with the sun setting and the sky ablaze with evening glow.
Bathed in the glow of the setting sun, both the lake at the foot of the mountain and the various plants on the mountain give people a sense of a paradise.
When Lin Hao returned to school, it was right after school let out. He first went to the cafeteria for a meal, and then got up to go back to his dormitory.
As he opened his room door, suddenly, a person came out and punched him in the face.
Almost instinctively, Lin Hao swung his fist and exchanged blows with his opponent.
"Bang!"
Lin Hao staggered back half a step and asked, "Why did you hide in my room and attack me?"
"I heard a new student has arrived at Douluo Tower, and he's even born with full innate soul power. According to the rules, either you defeat me, or you call me 'Boss'!"
"Who made this rule? I've never heard of such a rule in the academy before?"
"That's my rule."
The boy proudly pointed at himself with his thumb.
Taking this opportunity, Lin Hao sized up the other party.
He is about 1.3 meters tall and looks to be about twelve years old. He is about to graduate from the Junior Soul Master Academy.
He had broad shoulders, a handsome face with a touch of fortitude, and short, light red hair that made him look very energetic. His light red eyes gave him a gaze as deep and mysterious as the starry sky.
This was a face that exuded intelligence, yet it was completely at odds with his image as a carefree and dissolute playboy.
The boy suddenly added, "Oh, by the way, my name is Avalanche."
Lin Hao's pupils contracted slightly. "Avalanche, the fourth prince of the empire?"
The boy replied loudly, "Looks like you know me. Very well, this prince won't bully you. Quickly call me 'Big Brother' so I can hear you. Otherwise, you'll suffer some physical pain!"
"boring!"
Lin Hao bypassed the avalanche and went into his room.
Xue Beng paused for a moment, then quickly turned around, bracing himself against the closing door, and angrily said, "What do you mean by this? You haven't even called me boss yet."
Lin Hao coldly replied, "I don't have time to play with you!"
"That's not up to you." Xue Beng forcefully pushed open the door, saying, "Come out. With me here, you won't get a good night's sleep tonight. You have to do things my way. Since you don't want to call me 'boss,' I'll beat you into submission. Oh, and don't cry later!"
As Xue Beng spoke, he walked towards the outside of Douluo Tower.
After hesitating for a while, Lin Hao followed the avalanche to the open space outside the building.
Inside the building, many people stood by their room windows watching the commotion.
Avalanche spoke first, "I remember your martial soul is Blue Silver Grass, right?"
Lin Hao didn't think much of it and replied, "So what if it is?"
Avalanche kindly reminded him again, "I'll give you one more chance. You can still back out now. Just call me 'boss,' and I'll kindly let you go. From now on, I'll protect you in this academy and I'll make sure no one causes you any trouble."
Lin Hao chuckled, "I'm afraid you're the only one in this academy who'll cause me trouble, right?"
Avalanche remained silent, a smug smile playing on his lips. He felt no shame in it, but rather pride.
Lin Hao's attitude remained unchanged, and he urged, "There's no point in saying more, let's begin. I still need to take a bath later!"
"Good, you've got guts. It's been a long time since I've encountered such an interesting freshman." Xue Beng stomped his foot, and a yellow spirit ring floated up from the bottom of his foot. A pair of white wings attached themselves to his back as he introduced himself: "Xue Beng, Martial Soul: White Swan, Level 11 Agility-Attack Type Battle Spirit Master."
"Lin Hao, Martial Soul: Blue Silver Grass, Level 11 Life-type Weapon Soul Master."
"Life-type?! You're a support-type Soul Master?!"
As Xue Beng listened to Lin Hao announce his cultivation path, he revealed a mocking smile. "I'll give you one last chance. Call me boss. Will you agree?"
Blue Silver Grass is a useless martial soul.
This is already a consensus across the entire continent.
If Lin Hao's Blue Silver Grass develops in the direction of control, then it will have the ability to rival Avalanche.
When Avalanche heard that Lin Hao's Blue Silver Grass was developing in the direction of the Life-type, that is, the Support-type, he stood with his arms crossed. He felt that victory was already in his grasp.
Lin Hao's attitude remained unchanged, and he answered without hesitation, "I won't agree."
"Then I'll beat you until you submit!"
The first spirit ring beneath Xue Beng's feet rose upwards, and his right hand was enveloped in a ball of energy, transforming into an eagle claw as he charged towards Lin Hao.
Lin Hao suddenly squatted down and slapped his right palm onto the ground.
"First Soul Skill - Emerald Vein Surges!"
A faint white light acts on the Blue Silver Grass, accelerating its growth.
More than ten thick blue silver grasses stretched forward rapidly, and before the avalanche could react, they spiraled upwards and tightly wrapped around the avalanche's legs.
At that moment, the avalanche was rushing towards Lin Hao, and his feet got tangled, causing him to fall flat on his face.
Avalanche swung its energy claws, slicing through the blue silver grass beneath its feet.
The blue silver grass was scratched. In a flash of pale white light, the crack disappeared.
Five avalanches struck in succession, but they were unable to sever the blue silver grass that was entangled around his feet.
Lin Hao walked step by step to the front of the avalanche.
"No need to try. You and I are Soul Masters of the same level, with the same Soul Power. You cannot escape my Blue Silver Grass. My Blue Silver Grass can heal quickly with the first Soul Skill. Unless I run out of Soul Power, or you become a Great Soul Master, you won't be able to break free!"
Lin Hao's Blue Silver Grass and Tang San's Blue Silver Grass both involve entanglement, but their effects are different.
The latter relies on spirit rings to continuously improve its resilience and toxicity; the former relies on vitality to allow the Blue Silver Grass to grow strong and continuously heal the injured parts of the Blue Silver Grass.
Unless the damage inflicted exceeds the healing speed of Blue Silver Grass's first soul skill, or unless one is powerful enough to break free instantly, they can forget about escaping Blue Silver Grass's restraints.
Lin Hao smiled and asked, "Shall we continue?"
Undeterred, Avalanche continued to try and cut the Blue Silver Grass with its claws. After several attempts, the damage it inflicted couldn't keep up with the Blue Silver Grass's self-healing speed.
"Alright, alright, you win. I'll let you off this time!"
Xue Beng's eyes flickered as he watched Lin Hao put away the Blue Silver Grass and quickly leave Douluo Tower.
Outside the building, gasps of surprise could be heard from the onlookers.
"Isn't Blue Silver Grass a useless martial soul? How can it become so powerful?"
"Douluo Building is a dormitory for top students. Tell me, which student living there isn't amazing?"
"However, he defeated the avalanche, but now he'll be in even bigger trouble!"
Ignoring the noise outside, Lin Hao walked into the Douluo Tower amidst the attention of everyone.
What the students outside the building said is true.
Only those with exceptional talent can reside in the Douluo Tower.
The Douluo Tower symbolizes that those who live there will become powerful figures at the Title Douluo level in the future!
