Douluo: Subversion Begins with the Arrival of the Traveler

Chapter 259 Do you crave power?

"Don't worry about it, they'll tell you later. Are Coco and the others inside?"

Paimon's voice came through, and Fire Meow Meow quickly responded.

"Yes, Miss Coco and the others are all inside."

After saying that, he seemed to have thought of something and continued:
"They're soaking in the hot springs..."

"...Never mind, we'll come over when the time is right. Don't tell us where we are yet."

The sound of emptiness still echoed in Fire Meow Meow's ears, but he felt the little hand that was pulling on his whiskers had already let go.

Clearly, the adults and Miss Paimon have probably already left.

"Yes."

Even though it couldn't sense it, Fire Meow Meow still solemnly replied in its heart.

So the adults had arrived long ago...

For some reason, Fire Meow suddenly felt a sense of relief.

Perhaps this is the sense of security that comes from having adults around.

…………

The Soul Master Tournament was held as scheduled, as the Heavenly Battle Arena was set up strictly according to the previous Soul Master Tournament arrangements.

Therefore, although many college teams participated, the daily matches were systematically divided into two time slots.

The competition is held in the morning and afternoon, and there are five arenas set up in the venue, meaning that ten teams can compete at the same time.

The combined number of academy teams from the two great empires, Tian Dou and Xing Luo, participating in the Soul Master Competition exceeded one hundred. The early stages of the Soul Master Competition were a process of natural selection.

After the selection process over the past few days, the losing teams can be re-drawn to compete against other teams that also lost on the first day, until they are eliminated from the top 100.

Yu Keke and her team, Tian Dou, swept through the enemy lines, mercilessly crushing even the Blazing Fire Academy team.

However, it's worth mentioning that the Blazing Fire Academy team truly lives up to its reputation as one of the five elemental academies; aside from encountering the Heavenly Dou team, they were undefeated.

They managed to make it into the top 100 by playing in the revival round.

After that, they didn't draw any strong opponents and even made it into the top 50 and then the top 25.

"It's so boring. Ten days have passed, and we still have to keep playing matches..."

Inside the palace, Yu Keke held Huo Miaomiao and said weakly.

"Yes, I feel the same way..."

Dugu Yan slumped in her chair, her eyes seemingly devoid of interest.

"Don't do this! This is the Soul Master Competition!"

After Ye Lingling finished speaking, she looked lifelessly at the ceiling.

She had always wanted to participate in the Soul Master Competition and had always wanted to win the championship.
After experiencing a devastating winning streak these past few days, I suddenly felt that I didn't really want to go anymore.

The reason is simple: everything went too smoothly. She didn't even know how to describe this Soul Master Competition.

As a team member, all she had to do was go on stage and strike a pose; she didn't even need to activate her martial spirit. Ning Rongrong, who was beside her, did the same.

As soon as the referee announced the start of the match, the captain, Zhu Qing, and Ke Ke would attack before the opposing team could even react.
They swiftly and decisively knocked all the opposing team members off the stage.

This resulted in them feeling completely uninvolved...

"The captain and her teammates are too strong. No one in this year's team can match them..."

Ning Rongrong sighed at this moment.

Having two support-type Soul Masters in the team is a major taboo.

At first, she thought she would drag everyone down, and she was nervous before going on stage for the first time.

However, when he saw that his teammates had already knocked their opponents out of the arena before they had even finished applying their buffs,
She knew she was worrying unnecessarily.

"Drag it down" is generally used to describe a team with similar strength but a weak link.

But looking back on these days of fighting, what are the shortcomings?
What is defense?
No team on the opposing side was able to remain standing in the ring after the captain and her team's first-round onslaught...

"By the way, who are our opponents tomorrow?"

Bored as it may be, Dugu Yan still looked at Yu Keke.

After all, the prizes for the Soul Master Competition are quite tempting!
“Hmm~ It’s Blazing Fire Academy.” Yu Keke thought for a moment and then said.

"Blazing Fire Academy?"

Upon hearing this, the group all composed themselves.

What a small world!

Dugu Yan's eyes narrowed. "Rongrong, tomorrow we're going all out! Put all the buffs on us and teach those arrogant bastards a lesson!"

"Yes."

Ning Rongrong nodded emphatically upon seeing this.

Although Yu Keke didn't mention what happened during the lottery that day,
But when the Tianshui sisters came to visit them, they inadvertently revealed what had happened.

Upon hearing what had happened, Dugu Yan was furious, but several people managed to restrain her.
That's why they didn't let her have an offline duel right away.

However, the next day was the battle against Blazing Fire, and in that fight, they showed no mercy and thoroughly defeated them.

Huo Wu, in particular, was targeted by Zhu Zhuqing and Dugu Yan, and was almost beaten into a vegetable.

However, the healing and support Soul Masters of Blazing Fire Academy do have some skills.

In the revival match, Huo Wu was already able to jump around and completely dominate her opponents.

Now that the top 25 have met again, Dugu Yan has decided to let her go back and rest for another ten days or half a month tomorrow!

"Although we have already defeated tomorrow's opponent, we must not let our guard down."
They know they're dealing with us, and they might resort to some underhanded tactics.

As the team leader, Dugu Yan naturally considered things more thoroughly and spoke up to remind everyone.

"Captain, don't worry. Stone and I won't do anything but guard the two healers. You can charge forward without worry."

Graphite replied.

Clearly, the two brothers had found their place in the battle.

Acting as a tanky warrior in front of the healer in the team, similar to the potato front-line in Plants vs. Zombies.
By protecting the sunflowers from behind, Dugu Yan and her companions can continue to receive the boosts and fight.

"Yes, just stick to the original tactics."

Dugu Yan nodded, looking at Yu Keke who had become somewhat nervous because of her words, and continued:
"But don't be nervous, those rotten fish and shrimp are not worth mentioning. I'm just reminding everyone to take it a little bit seriously."

…………

On the other hand, things were clearly not as easy for Blazing Fire Academy as they were for Heavenly Dou Academy.

At this moment, their team members stood in a row, and their captain, Huo Wushuang, looked at them with a sharp expression.

He waited a moment before slowly speaking.
"Where's Vice Captain Huo Wu? Why hasn't she shown up yet?"

"Captain, we didn't know! You didn't even know she was your sister..."

One of the team members looked at his captain and said indignantly.

These past few days, because Huo Wu was injured, everyone had been fighting relentlessly against strong opponents, and as a result, everyone was exhausted.

We have to continue playing tomorrow, but the captain won't let us rest. Instead, he's calling everyone to assemble.

Gathering together is one thing, but the main problem is that team member Huo Wu is still missing, making everyone wait for ages. How can we not be angry?

"..."

Huo Wushuang pondered for a moment, then roared:

"Find her! Bring her here! Tomorrow's match is crucial; no one can be absent!"

"Yes……"

The team members replied listlessly and began searching the hotel they had booked.

At that moment, a figure left the city and walked aimlessly on the road.

The murmurs kept echoing in her ears.

"Do you crave power? You don't want to be trampled underfoot again tomorrow, do you?"

"Come here, I will give you strength, unparalleled strength for your team..."
