Douluo: Ant Power Breaks the Sky

Chapter 84 Late Night Visitor
Just like that, the first round of the game ended quickly. According to Shrek's ranking in the promotion match, Shrek had a bye in the second round. Shrek had three days of rest before the start of the third round. Of course, with Shrek's current state, there was no need for rest.

That night, Shi Yi was about to enter the state of cultivation as usual, when suddenly, there was a gentle knock on the door.

Shi Yi was a little surprised. Who would come to see him so late at night?

Then Shi Yi stood up and slowly opened the door. A strange yet familiar face appeared in front of Shi Yi. Shi Yi was a little surprised and asked, "Zhu Zhuyun?"

"Can we chat, Captain Shi Yi?" Zhu Zhuyun said softly. Her attitude seemed extremely gentle, as if she was not the same person that Shi Yi met a few days ago.

"Is there anything else we can talk about? Whether from the perspective of the team or from a man's perspective, I don't have the heart to chat with other people's female companions." Shi Yi chuckled playfully.

Hearing this, Zhu Zhuyun looked at Shi Yi and didn't care about Shi Yi's teasing. He said seriously: "Of course, I don't think there is any conflict between you and me."

"Oh? Tell me about it?" Shi Yi looked at Zhu Zhuyun in front of him with some curiosity.

"Captain Shi Yi, why don't you invite me in and sit down?" Zhu Zhuyun looked at Shi Yi and smiled.

Looking at Zhu Zhuyun standing at the door, Shi Yi made way for her with a helpless look on his face.

Shi Yi closed the door, sat casually on his bed and said, "Tell me, what do you want to see me alone so late at night?"

"I want to make a deal with you, Captain Shi Yi." Zhu Zhuyun chuckled.

"Deal? What bargaining chips can you offer me right now? Let me guess, if you want to escape the fate of having nothing now, there are only two ways. Either win the game or your opponent disappears. I wonder what kind of deal you want to make with me?" Shi Yi looked at Zhu Zhuyun and said lightly.

Zhu Zhuyun's beautiful eyes trembled when she heard this. She was silent for a while, then looked at Shi Yi and smiled, "The probability of you winning the game is not high, and you can't easily give up the victory of this game because of a trade."

"So, you want your opponent to disappear? Maybe you have found the wrong person. Mu Bai and I are close friends and brothers." Shi Yi said with a chuckle.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuyun covered her mouth and chuckled, saying, "Captain Shi Yi, do you think I'm easy to fool? Most of the people in Shrek have come to watch the second round of the game these days. Only you, Captain Shi Yi, Zhu Qing, and the girl from the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect didn't watch the game."

"What does this prove? Maybe I just don't like to move around. To me it doesn't matter who my opponent is. What matters is whether my opponent can surprise me." Shi Yi said calmly.

"You're right, but this may be just one of the reasons. Captain Shi Yi went shopping with Zhu Qing and the little girl from the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect that day. This shows that Captain Shi Yi is not unwilling to move around, but it depends on who he moves around with. Your relationship with Dai Mubai cannot be said to be bad, but it is definitely not good." Zhu Zhuyun chuckled, a hint of nervousness flashing in the depths of his eyes.

Shi Yi smiled and said, "Compared to Davis, you are indeed very smart, but why should I help you?"

"If you can help us kill Dai Mubai, Zhuqing will be yours after we take over." Zhu Zhuyun looked at Shi Yi and chuckled.

Shi Yi smiled disdainfully and said, "I won't do these things. I brought Zhu Qing to defeat you. Does that mean Zhu Qing is not mine? Do you think Dai Mubai will like his sister-in-law, or eldest sister-in-law, after he becomes emperor?"

Hearing this, Zhu Zhuyun's pupils shrank sharply. This was the situation she was most worried about. Since she could come to Shi Yi to trade, couldn't Dai Mubai do the same? If they could win with Shi Yi's help, for the throne, what would these women matter to them? Just like Shi Yi said, even if Zhu Zhuqing was gone, as long as Dai Mubai could become emperor, even she would belong to Dai Mubai.

Zhu Zhuyun also showed a sad smile for a moment, "It seems that Dai Mubai made a deal with you in exchange for Zhuqing. It really is killing three birds with one stone. Dai Mubai won, Zhuqing gained freedom, and you got Zhuqing."

At this time, Zhu Zhuyun looked at Shi Yi, and she suddenly felt a little envious of her sister. After all, it was not difficult to follow a young talent like Shi Yi.

Shi Yi looked at the resentment on Zhu Zhuyun's face and couldn't help but feel pity in his eyes. Then he said calmly, "Go back."

From the perspective of an observer, Shi Yi now realized that both Zhu Zhuqing and Zhu Zhuyun were victims of the Xingluo system. Shi Yi had no right to criticize Zhu Zhuyun for what she did to Zhu Zhuqing, because she was also trying to survive in her own way.

Zhu Zhuyun was silent for a while, and seemed to have made up his mind. He said to Shi Yi: "I don't want to win the game. As long as you can help me, I can agree to any conditions, including me..."

Shi Yi looked at Zhu Zhuyun with a hint of surprise in his eyes. He naturally did not make any deal with Dai Mubai. He just wanted Zhu Zhuyun to give up. He never expected that Zhu Zhuyun would spend so much money.

Shi Yi sighed slightly and looked at Zhu Zhuyun and said softly: "Is it necessary to fight to this extent?"

Zhu Zhuyun sneered and said, "The power of a country and our own lives are enough for us to bet everything on."

"If you want to kill people, why don't you do it yourself? I remember you started practicing cultivation much earlier." Shi Yi asked with some doubts.

Zhu Zhuyun looked at Shi Yi and snorted coldly, "It seems that you are not as smart as I thought. I personally hunted Zhu Qing, but she still came to Tiandou alive and came to Dai Mubai's side. A great soul master escaped from Xingluo City to Tiandou. It's simply the most ridiculous thing in the world."

Shi Yi showed a look of sudden realization and said, "So you are just a bunch of showmen. It seems that your subordinates are probably arranged by the higher-ups."

"This is also the reason why I want to trade with you, because we can't kill them on our own." Zhu Zhuyun said lightly.

"Then why me?" Shi Yi asked curiously.

"You are from Tiandou, but you are still a virtual noble at present, and you are strong enough to help me accomplish things without causing external forces to intervene in Xingluo's problems." Zhu Zhuyun said lightly.

Shi Yi smiled and said, "That's quite thoughtful."

"So what are your conditions? I said, even I can do it, I'm still clean." Zhu Zhuyun looked at Shi Yi and said lightly.

Shi Yi looked strange when he heard this and said, "Are you too confident in yourself? What kind of woman can't I find?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuyun's face flushed, and her expression became unnatural. She said unhappily, "What do you want? I don't believe that Dai Mubai's offer is better than mine! Didn't he just use Zhu Zhuqing to make a deal with you? As long as you can help me, not only Zhuqing, but I am also yours."

As he spoke, Zhu Zhuyun slowly stood up and walked towards Shi Yi.

Suddenly, a faint fragrance slowly penetrated into Shi Yi's nostrils. Zhu Zhuyun raised her hand and gently stroked Shi Yi's cheek, saying seductively, "Am I not as good as Zhu Qing's ice cube?" Feeling the other party's warm breath, Shi Yi couldn't help but feel his blood boiling. A touch of coolness hit Shi Yi's wrist. Shi Yi came back to his senses and quickly pushed Zhu Zhuyun away. He turned his face away and coughed a little embarrassedly, saying, "Go away. I won't make this deal with you."

Looking at Shi Yi's appearance, Zhu Zhuyun became interested. She suddenly understood why Zhu Zhuqing was willing to be traded to Shi Yi by Dai Mubai.

"No, if Captain Shi Yi doesn't agree to me tonight, I won't leave." Zhu Zhuyun looked at Shi Yi and chuckled.

After saying that, he sat on Shi Yi's bed very naturally.

Looking at Zhu Zhuyun sitting on the bed, Shi Yi thought that he could not get any benefits out of her, so he said helplessly: "Go away, I didn't make any deal with Dai Mubai, I just helped Zhu Qing escape his fate. After winning this game, Zhu Qing will not return to Xingluo. If the two of you can't beat Dai Mubai alone, then I have no choice."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuyun looked at Shi Yi and his eyes suddenly lit up. He murmured, "So that's how it is."

Shi Yi looked at Zhu Zhuyun and said seriously, "You have to rely on yourself to change your destiny, just like you chose to come to me tonight. Davis should not know about this. You should be glad that you have a good vision. If it were someone else who deceived you, you would not have a good ending."

Zhu Zhuyun looked at Shi Yi with a complex look in her eyes, and more of it was envy for Zhu Zhuqing.

"Okay, let's go." Shi Yi said to Zhu Zhuyun with pretended disgust.

"Heh..." Zhu Zhuyun couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth slightly as she looked at Shi Yi.

The next second, when that warm breath appeared in front of Shi Yi again, a soft touch like a dragonfly touching the water passed across Shi Yi's face, and Zhu Zhuyun's charming voice rang in Shi Yi's ears: "Brother Shi Yi, have a good rest, good night."

After saying that, Zhu Zhuyun blew gently in Shi Yi's ear.

The wonderful feeling made Shi Yi pause, as if he was under a spell. When Shi Yi came to his senses, Zhu Zhuyun had already pushed the door and left.

"Damn... She's such a witch. I should have done it to her earlier. You claim to be a gentleman, but instead you are being controlled by this little witch." Shi Yi cursed in his heart as he calmed himself down. He knew that Zhu Zhuyun was taking revenge on him.

Fortunately, Shi Yi had the black ice marrow given by Shui Bing'er on his wrist, otherwise Shi Yi would not be able to concentrate on his practice tonight.

Zhu Zhuyun looked back at the open door, and a smile of victory spread across her face, like a cat that had won a toy.

"You hid it from me for so long, huh... you little pervert."

Silent all night.

The next day, as the sun rose, the finals entered the third round. The third round began, and Thunder Academy and the second-placed academy in the Xingluo Empire promotion match had a bye. Shrek also faced their second match in the finals. Coincidentally, their opponent in the third round was the Xingluo Empire Royal Academy.

For a moment, everyone in Shrek almost simultaneously set their eyes on Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai.

Zhu Zhuqing was a little nervous and subconsciously looked in the direction of Shi Yi, and saw Shi Yi's warm smile.

"It's okay. With your strength, there's no need to be nervous now." Shi Yi chuckled.

Zhu Zhuqing looked at Shi Yi with soft eyes and nodded slightly. In fact, what she was most nervous about was not winning or losing. She had already decided in her heart that no matter whether she won or lost, she would never return to the cage of Xingluo.

Ning Rongrong looked at the two of them, with complex expressions in her beautiful eyes.

Dai Mubai looked at the two of them, and a hint of gloom flashed in his evil eyes, but it only took an instant for him to return to his usual calmness. He knew very well that if he wanted to win this game smoothly, he had to be more obedient at this critical moment. When he ascended to the throne, not only Davis, but Shi Yi would not be able to escape either.

The match started soon and both sides began to step onto the stage.

Zhu Zhuyun looked at Shi Yi solemnly, as if nothing had happened last night.

"Women are indeed born movie stars." Shi Yi said secretly in his heart.

Davis looked at Dai Mubai and said slowly: "Mubai, I didn't expect you to make it to the finals. Maybe you can still survive for a while, but Xingluo doesn't have such a powerful teammate."

Dai Mubai had a gloomy face and said nothing. It was just as Davis said. Even if he won the game, it would only extend the trial period for a while. This game itself was unfair to him. If Davis won, he could become the Crown Prince of Xingluo because of his age, but winning the game would not be enough for the Emperor of Xingluo to directly make him the Crown Prince.

The referee came to the center of the two teams and said, "Prepare for the game. You can release your spirits. The rules of the game are the same as before. The loser will be eliminated directly, and the winner will enter the top six. The Shrek Advanced Spirit Master Academy team will face the Xingluo Royal Advanced Spirit Master Academy. Get ready."

The gazes of Dai Mubai and Davis, Zhu Zhuqing and Zhu Zhuyun collided violently in the air.

The soul power of the seven members of Xingluo Academy was instantly released. Davis and Zhu Zhuyun stood at the front, and the soul power fluctuations on their bodies were also the largest.

In a flash, four soul rings, two yellow and two purple, appeared on their bodies. Judging from the fluctuations of soul power, among these two people, Davis' soul power has at least exceeded level 47, and Zhu Zhuyun is also above level 46.

When the spirit rings of the Shrek people appeared around them, Shi Yi's presence still brought great pressure to the other party.

For the battle between soul masters, soul rings, as a reflection of the soul masters' strength, can naturally give people a sense of deterrence. Shi Yi can weaken the opponent's will to fight just by lighting up his soul ring and standing there.

It is like the despair of a broadsword meeting a rifle. Don't underestimate this invisible oppression. Giving up is often much more difficult than persisting, and the will to fight will greatly affect the outcome of the battle.

"The game begins." With the referee's order, this attention-grabbing competition finally began.
