Soul Land IV (Douluo Dalu) : Ultimate Fighting

Chapter 1339: Chapter 1339 Lan Xuanyu Speaks

At this moment, given his speech, one can easily infer how highly he regards “Lan”.

“Then let’s all wait and see, I believe our number one contender won’t let us down.”

The cheers from Golden Dragon Princess resonated solely in one direction, but as the Sky Horse Sect Leader stood at the central rostrum and raised his right hand, the entire Sky Horse Plaza erupted into a boil. Cheers and roars like a tsunami echoed throughout the arena, deafening to the ear.

The cheering lasted for several minutes, only quieting down when the Sky Horse Sect Leader raised his other hand, too. The silence that followed the tremendous roaring showed just how powerful the Sky Horse Sect Leader’s control over the Sky Horse Star was.

The Sky Horse Sect Leader smiled slightly and said, “Today is a very meaningful moment for the Sky Horse Star; the Galaxy Federation Conference is the grandest event of our entire Dragon Horse Star System. Here, on behalf of Sky Horse Star, I extend our warmest greetings to all tribal friends who have come, and thank you for your presence.”

Again, the cheers sounded, and now, all the tribe members sitting in the viewing platforms below had stood up, respectfully bowing in the direction of the rostrum.

The voice of the Sky Horse Sect Leader did not sound very loud, yet the multitude of over a million people present could hear it clearly. For a strong figure of his rank, no sound amplification device was necessary.

“This conference will mainly consist of two parts. One part is my discussion with the tribal leaders about the future development of the Dragon Horse Star System. The other, is the upcoming Newcomer Challenge Tournament. My dear citizens, friends from different tribes, let us cheer together to welcome the arrival of this grand era.”

The cheers reached a new peak, with a mix of shouting, chanting, applause, and whistling rising and falling. The surging excitement instantly bathed the space above Sky Horse Plaza in a faint red hue. The rich vitality made the air seem thick. The eyes of countless people burned with fervor.

The Dragon Horse Star System is a world that venerates heroes, and here, individual strength is most esteemed. Therefore, compared to the Douluo Federation, it is the individual competition that is given the highest regard and anticipation. After all, whether it’s the Dragon Knights or the Sky Horse Knights, they represent the true peak combat effectiveness that rules over the galaxy. They are idols to the public, not just to the Dragon Clan and Sky Horse Clan, but for all tribes of the entire Dragon Horse Star System.

While they may also be resented as a privileged class, who in the Dragon Horse Star System does not dream of suddenly experiencing a dragon transformation, ascending to the skies to become a member of the Dragon Clan? Despite the resentment, there is longing.

The cheering lasted even longer this time, only subsiding when the Sky Horse Sect Leader once again raised his hand to quiet the crowd.

“Next, please welcome the representative of the six champions of our Newcomer Challenge Tournament, Lan from Sky Dragon Planet,” said the Sky Horse Sect Leader with a smile.

Yes, it was now Lan Xuanyu’s turn. Even Dawn Dragon Knight Zhong Zhichang was not scheduled to speak at today’s opening ceremony. He might be the Secondary Dragon Leader, but there’s still a gap in status compared to the Sky Horse Sect Leader. The Sky Dragon Leader was absent, and there were grumbles from the Sky Horse Star side. But they couldn’t really offend the Dragon Clan; therefore, by having Lan Xuanyu give the speech as the representative competitor, it signified the high regard for the Sky Dragon Clan.

“Golden Dragon Princess, Golden Dragon Princess, Golden Dragon Princess!” The previous cheers resounded once again like a tsunami, the deafening roar as if flipping the entire Sky Horse Plaza upside down.

The initial chanting had to consider the opinions of the big shots, but this time, they could legitimately call out the name that intrigued and mystified them.

Lan Xuanyu slowly advanced, first bowing to the Sky Horse Sect Leader and the Dawn Dragon Knight, then turned toward the arena below and the direction of the crowd.

“Hello everyone, I’m Lan.” Lan Xuanyu said with a smile, his tone light. As he spoke, the bloodline aura naturally circulated and rose within him, steadying the propagation of his voice.

A strange scene appeared as the bloodline aura fluctuations in the air, caused by the gathering of powerful individuals from various races, began to tremble subtly. It seemed as if everyone could faintly feel their bloodlines resonating with Lan’s voice.

Yes, resonance. The sound produced by this resonance was Lan’s spoken words. This peculiar phenomenon suddenly quieted the entire venue significantly. Numerous surprised gazes unabashedly focused on Lan Xuanyu.

Inside Lan Xuanyu, the vortex of the Dragon God’s bloodline spun, releasing his own bloodline aura, and he said calmly, “It’s my honor to come to Sky Horse Star and participate in this interstellar exchange event. As a representative of the Dragon Clan, I also warmly welcome challenges from everyone.”

The scene had quietened down by this time, and even the two Dragon Knights were somewhat astonished by the bloodline aura emanating from Lan Xuanyu. What was their level of Cultivation? They could clearly feel that although Lan Xuanyu had yet to break through, “her” Strength had noticeably improved. Bloodline aura control was already not inferior to ordinary God level strong individuals, and moreover, “her” bloodline seemed to have grown stronger. It was a bloodline that even the Dragon Knights would envy!

Lan Xuanyu continued, “Yesterday, when I just arrived, I learned that I would participate as the champion of the number one arena in the upcoming challenge for young elites. At that time, a friend from the Sky Horse Clan told me that actually, I wouldn’t be challenged many times. I was curious and asked why, and he said that because I am the champion of the number one arena, being challenged would be quite expensive.”

He spoke these words in a very casual tone, but as soon as they were spoken, laughter erupted from below. Even the Sky Horse Sect Leader couldn’t help but smile.

But Lan Xuanyu then shook his head and said, “I told that friend from the Sky Horse Clan that if the number of times I’m challenged is few, it’s definitely not because the cost of challenging me is high, but because…”

He paused for a moment, “Because they have lost their courage. They don’t even have the courage to challenge me; that would be the true disgrace of our Dragon Horse Star System.”

The strong representatives from various races, especially those young champions who were ready to take on the challenge, who were laughing before, suddenly quieted down. The way they looked at Lan Xuanyu also began to change gradually.

Lan Xuanyu stated indifferently, “You must think that I am using reverse psychology, right? But I can tell you it’s not. I don’t need to goad you, as these are my true thoughts. No matter which race, if you don’t even have the courage to challenge, how can you lead your people to become strong? How can you become the cornerstone of your race’s future?”

The crowd below erupted with noise, and the gaze many young powerhouses held towards Lan Xuanyu shifted from admiration and enthusiasm to fervor and agitation.

Lan Xuanyu continued indifferently, “I don’t know what the aesthetic standards for males are in our Dragon Horse Star System. But at least among us in the Dragon Clan, I am considered beautiful. I not only possess courage but also absolute confidence. Therefore, for this challenge event, I’ve decided to give you an opportunity.”

“I am the new champion of the Ascending Dragon competition, the strongest of the younger generation within the Dragon Clan, and the future Dragon Knight. I have a noble identity, an illustrious status, and vast potential for growth…”

How did this turn into boasting? This doesn’t seem quite in line with the persona of the Golden Dragon Princess! Not just the strong representatives and common folks below were taken aback, but even those on the main stage like the Sky Horse Sect Leader and the Dragon Knights were a bit stunned.
