Douluo : People are writing diaries in Douluo

"Then, Tang San, why are you in Slaughter City? Did your father send you here for training?" Zhao Wuji asked, puzzled.

Tang Hao had been revered as the Killing God of Slaughter City, so Zhao Wuji wondered if Tang Hao, even injured, would risk his son's safety in such a place. Upon hearing his father's name, Tang San's expression dimmed, and he replied in a low voice, "My... father has died. He stayed behind to block Su Ming and his allies' attack to save me."

"I made it here only with the help of the Shura God's divine consciousness. Now, as his successor, my first trial is here in Slaughter City."

Zhao Wuji's eyes widened, shocked to hear of Tang Hao's death. After a moment, he cautiously asked, "So, Little San, you'll have to win a hundred consecutive matches and pass the Hell Road to gain the Killing God Domain as part of Shura God's first trial?"

Tang San nodded in confirmation.

Contemplating for a moment, Zhao Wuji then awkwardly asked, "Since you're the Shura God's successor, and I was your teacher once… could you perhaps show me some mercy? You know, I didn't choose to come here. I don't expect you to get me out, but if we fight, could you go easy on me?"

To his surprise, Tang San agreed without hesitation.

"Teacher Zhao, don't worry. Let's take down the others first, and then, with my connection as Shura God's successor, I can persuade the King of Slaughter to let you live."

Grateful, Zhao Wuji nodded, but he kept his guard up, wary as always.

Then, as the Slaughter Envoy announced the start of the fight, all the contestants except Zhao Wuji charged at Tang San. Over the past few days, Tang San had become infamous in Slaughter City, his ruthless methods instilling even greater terror than the dark soul masters who usually competed. The others had already agreed to team up against him if they encountered him.

"Teacher Zhao, let's go!" Tang San flashed a wicked smile, raising his Clear Sky Hammer and striking a nearby foe.

Zhao Wuji rushed toward another opponent, his mind calculating. Both Tang San and Zhao Wuji moved quickly, and before long, only the two of them were left on the battlefield.

They exchanged a glance, then turned to attack in opposite directions.

But in a split second, Zhao Wuji changed his trajectory, signaling one of the remaining contestants to focus on Tang San's unprotected back. A sly smile formed on his lips.

"Tang San, don't blame me. I just want to survive. I can't place all my hope on you. If the King of Slaughter doesn't grant you any leniency, then I'm as good as dead!"

Zhao Wuji had planned from the start not to rely on Tang San. Pretending to ally with him was simply a strategy to lower his guard. Now, with Tang San's back exposed, Zhao Wuji gripped his twin axes, aiming to ensure a fatal blow.

Unfortunately for him, Tang San turned abruptly, his hand full of hidden weapons: Dragon Beard Needles, Zhuge Crossbow, and Shadowed Arrows.

Thud, thud, thud!

Zhao Wuji, caught off guard, couldn't dodge. His eyes widened in disbelief as he gasped, "Little San, you—!"

Tang San's expression remained cold. "Teacher Zhao, you can't blame me for being ruthless. I deliberately left an opening, and you immediately tried to kill me. Did you really think I trusted you? Here in Slaughter City, there is no such thing as trust. Consider this your contribution to my strength."

Zhao Wuji clutched his bleeding neck, trying to stem the flow, but within seconds, he succumbed.

The two remaining dark soul masters on the battlefield felt sheer terror. The tables had turned; the terror they usually inflicted on others was now upon them.

With a final ruthless blow, Tang San emerged victorious, absorbing every last bit of energy from the fallen bodies around him, satisfaction filling him as strength surged through him.

Inwardly, he seethed with resentment toward Su Ming. If it weren't for him, things wouldn't have turned out this way. He had lost his only family in this world, and his own mother had even sided with Su Ming, an unforgivable betrayal.

Watching from above, the King of Slaughter winced in sudden pain as he observed Tang San's mastery of the Clear Sky Hammer. Something about this young man's figure seemed hauntingly familiar.

Meanwhile, Su Ming, accompanied by Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, arrived at Blazing Fire Academy.

"Su Ming, how do you want to proceed from here?" Chrysanthemum Douluo asked.

Since they were here to negotiate, avoiding conflict was ideal. They knew that Huo Wu, a member of Blazing Fire Academy, was romantically involved with Su Ming, which was likely why the Pope had sent him personally.

Su Ming smiled. "You two should remain concealed. I'll meet with Huo Wu and see if she can arrange a meeting with the academy's head. That should ease tensions. If I remember correctly, the head of Blazing Fire Academy is Huo Wu's mother."

Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo nodded, understanding the strategy, and cloaked themselves in invisibility.

Su Ming extended his spiritual senses, covering the entire expansive academy grounds. With ease, he pinpointed the highest-level soul master and located Huo Wu's position.

Though he could go straight to the headmaster, approaching through Huo Wu would ensure a smoother approach and maintain better relations.
