Douluo II: The nanny is killing people indiscriminately!

Chapter 106 Semifinals 2
As her soul skill was activated, a crystal-like spiral horn condensed on Lian Chen's forehead, and soft golden light outlined her figure. Her elegant and sacred posture made people want to worship her.

A golden light burst forth from the tip of the unicorn, echoing the light and melodious long sound emanating from Lian Chen's chest, rippling out in circles of golden sound waves.

The beast's cry was like a cool mountain breeze blowing into the minds of the Sun and Moon Team members, instantly alerting them and increasing their mental strength by 70%. Their state was more concentrated than ever before, allowing them to guide and control a larger number of soul tools.

Another large number of soul-guided cannons emerged from the void with dark cannon holes, arranged like peacock tail feathers, hovering behind the Sun and Moon Battle Team.

Pointed at by nearly eight hundred soul-guided cannons, the seven members of the Di'ao team swallowed hard, their legs trembling slightly. In particular, Xiao Lou, the defensive soul master at the front, turned pale instantly.

How long can he withstand so many soul-guided cannons? Half a minute? Twenty seconds? Or... ten seconds?
Ma Rulong gave the order: "Fire!"

Nearly eight hundred soul-guided cannons unleashed their devastating power, with countless shells raining down like meteors, crashing into the Di'ao team.

Alarm bells rang in Xiao Lou's heart, and all five of his soul rings lit up. A giant tree rose from the ground in front of him, its bark covered with a layer of hard iron and its branches and leaves flourishing.

The Ironwood Tree, a plant-type martial soul, possesses considerable offensive capabilities and unparalleled defensive abilities.

Controlled by the small building, the branches gathered upwards, weaving into a disc, forming an impenetrable shield to withstand the overwhelming barrage of fire from above.

Xiao Lou burned all his soul power to raise the shield's defense to its maximum. The cannonball landed on the shield, and with a thunderous explosion, the shield shattered and disintegrated instantly, not even lasting a second! Xiao Lou vomited a mouthful of blood, severely injured and unconscious, and was eliminated from the competition.

The other six were not spared either. Their shields shattered suddenly, and they were hit hard by the soul-guided cannon. They scattered and were unable to escape in time, and all of them were injured to varying degrees.

The soul-guided cannon continued firing shells, and the threat of death was imminent. Jiang Peng decisively raised his hands and shouted, "Referee, we concede!"

The audience erupted in uproar. Did the Di'ao team concede defeat right at the start?
Despite his seemingly reckless appearance, Jiang Peng is not impulsive or reckless in his actions, and his battle strategy is clear.

The Sun and Moon team instantly shattered the Iron Tree shield of the small building. With this level of firepower, he concluded that the Di'ao team had no chance of winning in a team battle.

They didn't care about winning this team battle. They should concede early and preserve their team's strength. The Sun and Moon team is weak in individual battles, while individual battles are the strength of the Imperial Academy.

If they win the individual battle, they will have to play a 2-2-3 match. The individual battle and the 2-2-3 match are their advantageous situations. So what if the Sun and Moon team wins one match while leading?

Who will emerge victorious? Only time will tell.

Jiang Peng conceded defeat, and referee Huang Jinxu immediately intervened, creating a barrier of soul power to block the barrage of soul-guided cannons.

"Sun and Moon Team, stop! Di'ao Team has already surrendered!"

The battle ended smoothly as expected. Feeling the emptiness of her soul power, Lian Chen frowned slightly. The 70,000-year-old soul skill was indeed powerful; it drained all her soul power with just one activation.

……

The second day, individual competition.

Perhaps hoping to avenge their previous defeat, the first player from the Imperial Academy to take the stage was none other than their captain, Jiang Peng.

Taking the Soul Emperor powerhouse seriously, the Sun and Moon Team sent Mika to the arena to fight.

Mika is calm and composed, and has never made a mistake in previous sparring sessions and matches. Among the regular team members, his strength ranks second. Mika is indeed very strong, but there is a gap in their levels. He couldn't last ten minutes against Jiang Peng before Jiang Peng used the Eighteen Dragon Slaying Slashes to shatter his Soul Guidance Armor with a single axe blow, knocking him unconscious.

"In the first individual competition, the winner is: Jiang Peng from Di'ao Academy."

"You soul masters who rely on external forces will never be as good as me. Today I will defeat you all!" Jiang Peng was full of confidence and pointed at the Sun and Moon team in the waiting area, shouting that he was determined to regain the face he lost yesterday.

Xiao Hongchen gritted her teeth in anger, jumped up, and was about to go on stage to teach him a lesson.

Lian Chen raised his hand and grabbed Xiao Hongchen's hand: "Xiao, don't be impulsive, Brother Ma is next."

Xiao Hongchen tried his best to control his temper, snorted coldly, and sat back down in his original seat.

In team battles, soul tools are incredibly effective in group combat. However, in individual battles, it's almost impossible to bridge the gap between a Soul King and a Soul Emperor using soul tools. Don't underestimate Jiang Peng just because he's only a beginner Soul Emperor. He's an elite cultivated by the Imperial Academy with all its resources. When it comes to the crucial moment where success or failure hinges on this, he'll unleash his full combat power.

In the previous match, the Sun and Moon team sent out Mika, mainly to test Jiang Peng's strength.

Ma Rulong's appearance drew everyone's attention.

The Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy and the Imperial Academy are facing off, and Wang Yan has finally brought his team members to watch the match today.

Seeing that Mika had been defeated, Wang Yan's eyes flickered slightly.

The members of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy rely too much on soul tools. Indeed, Mingde Hall produces countless powerful soul tools, but the rules of the Soul Battle Tournament prohibit high-damage soul tools, making it difficult for soul masters to gain any advantage against elite soul masters.

Even if Lian Chen glanced in the direction of Shrek Academy's rest area, so what if he knew Ma Rulong's strength and background? Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy is never afraid to show its hand.

Even if they revealed their hand, they couldn't lose this Soul Fighting Tournament.

Ma Rulong finally made his appearance, which was perfect for Shrek Academy. They could take this opportunity to observe and analyze his strength, and make targeted tactical adjustments before the match.

Seeing Ma Rulong step onto the competition stage, Jiang Peng also looked solemn, his strong fighting spirit causing the Heaven-Shaking Axe in his hand to tremble and resonate.

Ma Rulong took out a level six baby bottle and threw it to Jiang Peng, saying, "Your soul power is damaged, take a break. I won't take advantage of you in your weakened state."

Jiang Peng caught the baby bottle, crushed it in one hand, and swung his other hand, the Heaven-Shaking Axe, pointing it directly at Ma Rulong: "I'm in peak condition right now!"

Ma Rulong's indifferent gaze turned cold; he truly didn't know what was good for him.

The match is about to begin!
Jiang Peng, wielding the Heaven-Shaking Axe, charged toward Ma Rulong. Six soul rings—two yellow, two purple, and two black—were released and rose. He leaped into the air, and just then, a thunderclap boomed in the clear sky. He descended from the sky and cleaved out a huge blade of light.

The Heaven-Shaking Axe is about five feet long, completely black, and exudes a fierce aura. Just by looking at its surface, one can sense its extraordinary destructive power.

The axe blade cleaved through the air, the powerful friction generating a piercing whistle. Jiang Peng's attack was ruthless, aimed directly at Ma Rulong's head.

Ma Rulong pressed the small black and red metal object beside his ear, channeling his soul power to activate it. The metal extended and transformed into mechanical glasses. Jiang Peng's axe strike was incredibly swift, but thanks to the soul-guided detection mirror, he accurately predicted Jiang Peng's attack and dodged it.
