Douluo: Ant Power Breaks the Sky

Chapter 78 There's nothing to play

Silent all night.

The next day, Shi Yi woke up from his meditation early. He looked out the window and saw that it was still dark. He was a person with little sense of security and was not used to being in the same room with other people. He woke up earlier than usual.

Shi Yi gently touched the barracks and found the water source after searching for a while. This royal hunting ground is not only the hunting ground of the Tiandou royal family, but also the place where the Royal Knights are stationed and trained. In order to facilitate water collection, the military camp is naturally not far from the water source.

As Shi Yi was washing by the river, a familiar voice came into Shi Yi's ears, "Why are you up so early?"

Shi Yi looked back with slight surprise, only to see Shui Bing'er standing not far behind him.

"I always get up early, and there are too many people in the barracks, so I'm not used to living here. Why are you here?" Shi Yi asked in surprise.

Shui Bing'er smiled and said, "Of course I practice by the river. Isn't it obvious that the water element here is more abundant? Although the effect is average, it is better than nothing."

Shi Yi nodded suddenly and said, "Well... it's just a little unsafe."

Shui Bing'er looked at Shi Yi's soft blue eyes and chuckled, "This is the royal hunting ground. The Tiandou Royal Knights are stationed nearby. Ordinary people can't hurt me. Besides, if someone wants to hurt me under the noses of so many teachers and VIPs, I can't resist."

Hearing this, Shi Yi also smiled and nodded: "Yeah, that's true."

"Let's go for a walk together?" Shui Bing'er said a little embarrassedly.

Seeing this, Shi Yi couldn't help but joked: "No one should be able to refuse Bing'er's invitation, so don't be embarrassed."

The two walked side by side along the river. It seemed that they had become immune to Shi Yi's words. Shui Bing'er looked at Shi Yi and said seriously, "I'm curious if you treat other girls the same way?"

"Of course not. My attitude towards beauties is basically the same, because everyone loves beauty. But there is more than just beauty in you. Everyone is different, so the attitude will be different." Shi Yi said with a chuckle.

Shui Binger rolled her eyes at Shi Yi and asked curiously, "So how do you feel about the girl who sat next to you yesterday?"

Hearing this, Shi Yi looked at Shui Bing'er with some surprise and did not answer immediately.

Shui Bing'er thought about her relationship with Shi Yi and it seemed that it was not appropriate to talk about these things. She looked a little embarrassed and said, "If it's not convenient, it's okay."

Shi Yi thought for a moment and said, "How should I put it... My attitude towards Zhu Qing at the beginning was probably no different from that of most girls, but there were two things about her that really touched me and made me change my attitude."

"What is it?" Shui Bing'er asked curiously.

"Hard work and loneliness. In order to break through the boundaries of fate, she worked harder than anyone in Shrek. A twelve-year-old girl came to Tiandou to find her last support, but she ultimately didn't find the support in her heart... Her inner loneliness is the same as mine. There should be no one to rely on." Shi Yi said softly.

Shui Bing'er looked at Shi Yi and said softly, "So you want to be her support?"

Shi Yi shook his head slightly and said, "Become her support? What qualifications do I have to be her support? It seems like I have taken on the responsibility, but it's just an excuse to lust after her. Compared to being her support, I hope she can become the strong self in her heart, so I have been giving her some help within my ability."

"Really..." Shui Bing'er looked at Shi Yi, her water-blue eyes sparkling with a different kind of brilliance. The current Shi Yi was indeed very attractive to her. Thinking of the loneliness Shi Yi had just mentioned, a trace of heartache flashed in Shui Bing'er's eyes.

"Has he always been helpless?" Shui Bing'er thought secretly in her heart.

"Are you satisfied with this answer?" Shi Yi winked at Shui Bing'er.

Hearing this, Shui Bing'er's expression froze, a blush appeared on her pretty face, and she said angrily: "Can you be more serious? You were fine just now, and you are making fun of me again."

At this time, the sky was already bright, and Shi Yi smiled at Shui Bing'er and said, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. It's getting late. I think breakfast should be ready in the barracks. There will be a game later. See you in the stands."

Shui Bing'er also nodded, and with a slight fluctuation of soul power, she stretched out her hand with a red face. Shi Yi saw a dark blue bead strung with a rope appear in her palm, with a faint blue light in it.

"Look, this is the Xuanbing Sui, a natural treasure with ice properties. It also contains the original power of my martial soul. Wearing it on your body can help you avoid the heat and calm your mind when you practice..." Shui Bing'er said to Shi Yi a little embarrassedly.

Shi Yi looked at Shui Bing'er with some surprise, and Shui Bing'er quickly added: "This is your gift in return for helping me solve the problem..."

Upon hearing this, Shi Yi took the black ice marrow from Shui Bing'er's hand and said in a disappointed tone, "Bing'er...are you so anxious to return the gift?"

Shui Bing'er's face tightened upon hearing this, and she quickly explained, "That's not what I meant."

"Then I understand what you mean, Bing'er." Shi Yi said, and the disappointment on his face suddenly turned into a smile.

When Shui Bing'er saw the smile on Shi Yi's face, she couldn't help but pause, and then she saw Shi Yi's figure quickly disappear in front of her.

Shui Binger knew she was being played. She stamped her feet in anger as she looked at Shi Yi's back, and secretly said in her heart, "Bad bastard..."

If there were other people present at this moment, they would see that Shui Bing'er's smile could not be erased.

While running, Shi Yi looked at the string of black ice marrow beads in his hand, his brows softened, a smile on the corners of his mouth, and he put it on his wrist.

Not long after, Shi Yi returned to the barracks, and the Shrek people gradually woke up from their training state. The cook of the Royal Knights also arranged meals for the Shrek people.

After breakfast, everyone arrived at the competition venue as arranged. The match between Shrek Academy and Blazing Academy was held in the fifth round today.

The four rounds of competition passed by in a flash, and soon the competition came to the fifth round. The result was the same as Shi Yi expected. Chihuo directly gave up. The reason was simple. For Chihuo, this game was not very meaningful. The promotion match was mainly based on performance, and there was no eliminated team. Even if the fire attribute soul master had a bad temper, it did not mean that he was stubborn.

Upon hearing the news that Chihuo Academy had given up, the teams from the kingdoms and principalities were extremely surprised. Chihuo Academy was not just any crappy academy. In their eyes, when Chihuo faced off against Shrek, a company they had never even heard of, it should be Shrek that gave up.

For a moment, a lot of eyes were focused on the area belonging to Shrek.

Shi Yi was of course happy and relaxed about Chihuo's avoidance of the fight. He just felt that staying here to watch other people's matches was no different from being in jail. Only Tang San's fight could arouse some interest in him.

Zhu Zhuqing, who was sitting not far from Shi Yi, looked at the new black ice marrow on Shi Yi's wrist, and felt a little sad. But when she thought about it carefully, it was Shi Yi who had been helping her, but she never thought about giving Shi Yi something. "Even Rongrong gave him the ring, and I..."

Thinking of this, Zhu Zhuqing's eyes were filled with complexity.

At this time, Shi Yi also noticed Zhu Zhuqing's gaze, looked at Zhu Zhuqing and smiled: "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me?"

Zhu Zhuqing came back to her senses and quickly shook her head and said, "Nothing."

Looking at Zhu Zhuqing who looked away, Shi Yi sighed secretly in his heart. He could feel that something was wrong with Zhu Zhuqing's condition. He also understood that Zhu Zhuqing had a burden in her heart that she could not get rid of. As long as she failed to defeat Xingluo Royal Academy, Zhu Zhuqing would always carry this burden, and no matter what happened, she would bury it in her heart together with this burden.

Just like that, time passed slowly, and on the third day, Shrek drew a high-level soul master academy from the Barak Kingdom.

According to Liu Erlong's arrangement, Shi Yi brought Tai Long, Huang Yuan, Jing Ling and several substitutes to the court. Although the strength of the three was slightly weaker than that of the Shrek team, it was still pretty good in this competition. After all, even the Four Elements Academy still had Soul Master-level players in their team, not to mention those teams from the kingdoms and principalities.

Knowing that they were going up against Shrek Academy, the leader and team members of the Barak Kingdom Academy all had solemn expressions on their faces. Although they didn't know why Blazing Academy gave up, they knew from the fact that Shrek sent out three Soul Masters on the first day that the other side should not be underestimated.

When the people of the Barak Kingdom looked at the battle list, they were all confused. The three Soul Masters on the first day had now become three Soul Lords plus one Soul Master.

Such an arrangement made the people of the Barak Kingdom feel despised.

Soon as the game started, the three substitutes performed very well. Tailong took down two people in succession with his expertise, and Huang Yuan and Jing Ling also took down one person each.

It was Shi Yi's turn to perform, and he couldn't help but yawn when he got on the stage.

"Boy, you will pay the price for your contempt." The tall young man stared at Shi Yi and said.

"Look down on? Letting me come up here doesn't mean I respect you enough." Shi Yi said lazily.

As Shi Yi spoke, his body began to change, his martial spirit quietly released, four purple and black spirit rings swirled up.

"Is this enough to show you off?" Shi Yi said softly. For a moment, the team leaders from the kingdom and duchy in the stands kept exclaiming. Even the Tiandou Royal Knights, the elite force of the empire known for its strongest discipline, could not help but cause a commotion.

"This scene is always amazing no matter how many times I see it." Xue Ye, who was sitting in the VIP seat, sighed softly.

The moment the words fell, the other party was still immersed in the surprise of Shi Yi's soul ring, when a familiar explosion sounded. The other party subconsciously realized that something was wrong and hurriedly activated his martial soul.

When Shi Yi appeared in front of him in an instant, just as he was about to release his soul skill, an irresistible force hit him, and the next moment he felt a strong sense of weightlessness.

In the eyes of other spectators, Shi Yi's movements were very simple. He flashed in front of the opponent in an instant and slapped the opponent away with a palm. From the beginning of the game to now, it only took a few breaths. The whole process was like flowing water without any delay.

"Has this kid's strength improved again? He actually managed to knock the opponent off the field without hurting him." Flanders said softly.

Yu Xiaogang on the side shook his head and said: "It may be that the opponent is too weak."

Flanders adjusted his glasses and said, "The opponent is not too weak. After all, they are the last few players. Although they are not Soul Sect, they are also level 39."

Tang San looked at the field with an extremely grim expression. As the most talented person in Tang Sect in a hundred years, it was impossible for him not to see what Shi Yi had used.

"Control the crane and capture the dragon..."

After a brief freeze, the air suddenly became hot, with exclamations and shouts of surprise. Not to mention those from the foreign soul master academy, even the members of the Four Elements Academy who had fought with Shrek Academy before were all shocked.

Shi Yi seemed to be even more out of control in a one-on-one duel.

Shi Yi couldn't help but smile, his eyes drifted towards the other players of Barak Academy, and he said softly, "Next one."

These three simple words made the players from Barak Academy look at each other in bewilderment. Finally, the leader of Barak Academy directly called for abstention.

As the game came to a quick end, the teams from the kingdom and principality understood why Chihuo had to give up. If they didn't give up, sending their players up would simply be a waste of time for Shi Yi to perform as a sandbag, or even a toy.

Shi Yi then slowly returned to the stands, looked at Liu Erlong not far away and said with a smile: "Master's Wife, this is good, no one can have fun now."

Liu Erlong was slightly startled. Looking at the various whispers of the students around him, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty. He thought to himself, "Isn't it that these guys have become cowards after seeing Xiao Yi? I should have let Tang San be the backup."

Yu Xiaogang looked at Liu Erlong with a half-smile at this time, and Liu Erlong glared back at him angrily.

However, Yu Xiaogang thought this was a good idea. At least he didn't have to worry about who to play.

At this time, Shi Yi also looked at Yu Xiaogang who was not far away and said, "Teacher, the results have been achieved now. Can I ask for leave? What's the point of watching noobs fight each other every day? This promotion game is also a talent show. Anyway, I'm following His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I might as well go back and practice more."

Thinking of Shi Yi the day before yesterday, Yu Xiaogang couldn't help but smile on his slightly stiff face and said, "Not a single day can be missed in the next half month."

Upon hearing this, Shi Yi came close to Liu Erlong who was not far away, and shouted in a disgusting voice with a smile: "Master's Wife..."

Liu Erlong glared at Shi Yi and said, "Get lost, stop annoying me. It's all your fault. Why did you hit me so hard? Can't you just go up and have some fun?"

"My attack was quite powerful, but I sent my opponent off the stage without any injury. It's great that they can continue the competition without having to recover from their injuries." Shi Yi said helplessly.

"Get out and don't force me to beat you." Liu Erlong said unhappily.

Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing standing by couldn't help but smile.
