Douluo: Peerless Black Tortoise Moon God

Chapter 395 A Reckless Laughter in the Mortal World, The Defeat of the Body Sect, and the Imminent Movement of Seagod Island

In the semifinals, the Holy Spirit Cult team was eliminated in the first round, and in the individual competition, they were defeated by Miss Gu Yuena, who swept seven opponents in one go, without even a chance to participate in the team battle.

Zhongli Wu was indignant and determined to take revenge.

Xu Tianxi sensed with his spiritual power that Zhongliwu was discussing something with his followers, but he didn't care much. He simply urged all parties to make arrangements and wait for the big fish to fall into the net.

This time, he intends to go on a killing spree; he needs to kill at least a few Super Douluo to break even.

The second semi-final match begins, with the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy team facing off against the Snow Demon Sect.

As the team captain, Xiao Hongchen was the first to appear. Seeing that the person facing him was Huo Yuhao, who had five rings, he nonchalantly put his hands behind his back and said:
"Your strength is not bad, but the distance between Soul King and Soul Saint is an insurmountable chasm. I advise you to admit defeat and let Long Aotian take over."

Huo Yuhao's eyes were calm, and his mental energy was contained. He said, "Underestimating your opponent is underestimating yourself. I will show you my power."

"Hehe, then so be it; there aren't many people who can be my rivals."

Xiao Hongchen smiled proudly, turned around and retreated. His Three-Legged Golden Toad Martial Soul was activated, slightly diminishing his dignity. Then, hundreds of metal cannons rose up and aimed at the target from afar.

At the same time, he secretly contacted Xu Tianxi: "Old Xu, brother, I'm about to activate my spirit ring. The sixth ring of 100,000 years is too eye-catching. Remember to change it to a 10,000-year spirit ring for me."

"Okay, take it easy," Xu Tianxi replied from the high platform, a helpless smile on his face.

"Hehe, I'm relieved to have you here. I'll be at the Underground Soul Master Competition tomorrow night to support you, remember to give me a high score!"

Xiao Hongchen's morals have seriously deteriorated, and he intends to use off-field tactics to curry favor with the referee. Xu Tianxi, with a dark expression, is determined to have zero tolerance for such behavior.

When he was cultivating overseas, he had Meng Hongchen bring back the Soul Contract incantation to temporarily take his place and form soul contracts for everyone.

Meng Hongchen's sixth ring, which had been around for 100,000 years, made Jing Hongchen extremely envious, and it also spurred Xiao Hongchen on. So when Xiao Hongchen broke through to the sixth ring, Jing Hongchen invited his friend to go to the Mingdou Great Forest to invite the Soul Beast Ancestor, and from then on, he joined the Hongchen Clan.

As far as he knew, Xiao Hongchen got along very well with his 100,000-year-old soul. The only regret was that his attributes could not be improved further and he could not cultivate to the ultimate gold.

Well, even with Xiong Jun's powerful cultivation, he couldn't reach the Ultimate Gold level. It seems that the Ultimate Gold level that Young Master Xiao dreams of is truly hopeless. Xu Tianxi has asked many people, but none of them have been able to help him.

Nevertheless, Xiao Hongchen's attack power was extremely strong; being his opponent was like being locked onto by a soul tool fortress.

Huo Yuhao felt a chill run down his spine, realizing that Xiao Hongchen posed an even greater threat than Long Aotian.

Below the stage, Vina shook her head and said solemnly, "Xiao Hongchen's talent for soul tools is indeed as terrifying as the rumors say. With such a massive number of soul tools, he can challenge soul masters and soul instructors with stronger cultivation levels than him."

Jin Peng said worriedly, "And this guy also has a 100,000-year soul ring. I really don't know how he did it."

From everyone's perspective, Xiao Hongchen's soul ring configuration is very similar to their sect leader's: two yellow, two purple, and two black, with the seventh soul ring being as red as blood. If nothing unexpected happens, the next two rings will also be red, something that even Long Aotian couldn't achieve.

The Tang Wutong from last time was just a figurehead. I don't know the situation with Xiao Hongchen, but he is a pure Soul Master, and his role is to launch artillery. Even if he is just a figurehead, it doesn't matter, as long as he has enough Soul Power.

"Soul Masters are naturally physically weak, far inferior to that Angel Soul Douluo and Xu Sanshi. It's probably because of the Heavenly Court. They claimed that Soul Masters could form contracts with Soul Beasts without being restricted by the Soul Beast's age limit, and it seems that it's true."

Vina sighed, her gaze shifting from the two players on the field with vastly different strengths to Xu Tianxi, who was dozing off on the high platform, seemingly detached from everything. She thought to herself, "Since the start of the competition, you haven't made a single move. Do you think that we are not even worth fighting?"
However, you have countless extraordinary talents under your command, any one of whom could dominate the entire field, so there really isn't much need for that, Vina chuckled to herself.

Su Tong, the epitome of ice and snow; Xiao Xiao, the twin martial souls; and Xu Sanshi, the successor of Xuanming—those two sisters, one with invincible power and the other with mastery of multiple elements, are both top-tier Super Douluo seeds, and even have the potential to break through to the Limit Douluo level. I really don't know where you found so many talents.

Since the start of the competition, many people have been discussing who is the second best player in this competition, while few people have been discussing who is the best player. The people of the Sun Moon Empire have unconditionally trusted Xu Tianxi, who can chat and laugh with Kong Deming and Jing Hongchen, while the people of the original Three Kingdoms have all felt tremendous pressure from the terrifying lineup of the Heavenly Court team.

The team members are already so formidable, the captain's strength can only be stronger. The Body Sect has no intention of competing for the championship, their goal is only to strive for second place, otherwise even Xu Sanshi alone would make them turn green with embarrassment.

The first battle ended quickly. Even though Huo Yuhao used his Mirror Soul Skill immediately and replicated Long Aotian's skin spirit, he couldn't withstand Xiao Hongchen's overwhelming bombardment.

Huo Yuhao tried to break through no matter how he tried, but couldn't find an opportunity. Xiao Hongchen was equipped with a powerful soul tool that could defend against mental attacks, so Huo Yuhao's mental attacks were useless. He also couldn't get close in close combat, and was soon knocked out of the arena due to exhaustion.

“Next.” Xiao Hongchen waved a finger, pouted, and looked at Long Aotian defiantly.

"He wants to see me, so I'll go and meet him."

Long Aotian stood up, pushed aside his teammate who was trying to check on him, and strode onto the competition stage. The air seemed to support his body, and he exuded a powerful aura of oneness with nature.

Seeing that he had truly provoked Long Aotian, Xiao Hongchen's expression became much more serious. After examining him for a while, he suddenly smiled mysteriously and said:
"The unity of heaven and man, I've seen it before, your realm is not very deep."

"I am indeed no match for that Angel Soul Douluo, but I am quite confident in dealing with you." Long Aotian immediately assumed that the other party was referring to Ye Guyi, as the difference in their cultivation levels was too great for him to resist.

"No, no, no, you're wrong. I'm not talking about her, it's someone else." Xiao Hongchen said something that left Long Aotian completely bewildered, then chuckled and said:

"Compared to him, your level is far inferior, and your methods are not very useful to me."

He had to admit that the other party was a remarkable person, having cultivated himself into a Soul Saint in the Body Sect. If he hadn't met Xu Tianxi, the other party might have had the right to look down on him.

But who told him to have stumbled upon Xu Tianxi while he was just wandering around outside? The feeling of being suppressed all this time wasn't pleasant, but the unexpected opportunity that followed made him even happier.

The unity of man and nature was something that person had already mastered long ago, and had even conducted adversarial training on him. Long Aotian's unity of man and nature was quite oppressive, but it couldn't make him lose his composure.

Seeing that Xiao Hongchen was "uttering wild words" and seemed unaffected by his aura, Long Aotian's brows furrowed, and he said coldly, "No matter what, I will let you know the strength of my Body Sect."

"Hehe, please." Xiao Hongchen appeared playful but was serious inside. With a wave of his hand, he doubled the number of soul-guided cannons he controlled, staring intently at Long Aotian, ready for battle.

With Ye Yulin's announcement of "The match begins," the battle commenced, and an epic clash erupted on the competition stage.

With the Soul Guidance Cannons raging and Long Aotian unleashing his true combat skills, he charged left and right amidst the barrage of fire, unleashing a relentless, star-chasing attack. Xiao Hongchen was surrounded by several level-seven Soul Guidance Devices, and a level-nine Soul Guidance Device, Red Dust Protection, was hidden in his chest. He showed no fear of the opponent's fierce onslaught.

The newly rebuilt arena was riddled with holes in a very short time. Both Soul Saints were demolition experts, and the Soul Guiding Light Shield suffered dozens or even hundreds of aftershocks. The audience could hardly see what the two were fighting.

Finally, at a certain moment, the two used their Martial Soul True Forms.

The three-legged golden toad divine beast appeared and instantly transformed into a batch of top-level soul tools, aiming at the opponent. Long Aotian stood up and transformed into a ten-meter-long jade giant. However, this time, he was riddled with holes and bleeding profusely, far from the ease he had shown before.

Xiao Hongchen is not Tang Wutong. Even without physical training, her continuous bursts of power caused Long Aotian great harm, almost breaking through his defenses. If he didn't use his Martial Soul True Body, he would have no chance!
"Boom~!"

Several level-seven soul tools and one level-eight soul tool unleashed their power, colliding with Long Aotian's strongest combat skills in his Martial Soul True Body, Silver-level Awakening, and Unity of Heaven and Man state, creating a deafening aftershock.

Amidst the chaotic colors, a blood-soaked figure flew backward and crashed off the stage.

It's Long Aotian!

The members of the Body Sect rushed over and rescued Long Aotian. Vina released her Snow Lotus Martial Soul, and a snow lotus petal fell, stopping the bleeding from the blood hole on Long Aotian's body.

"Cough cough, cough cough, the geniuses of your Body Sect are really energetic, and their strength is not bad."

On the uneven competition stage, Xiao Hongchen briefly floated in the air, covering his mouth and coughing.

His clothes were torn in large sections, but his injuries were not serious; he only had blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, suffering from poor physical condition.

Upon hearing this, the geniuses of the Body Sect glared at him angrily. How could he be so arrogant after winning? Did he think the Body Sect had no one left?

Xiao Hongchen's mentality was really a bit arrogant. Seeing that the people of the Body Sect were not convinced, he crossed his arms, a smug smile appeared on his lips, and said;

"Although I suffered a minor injury, it doesn't mean I can be defeated by you. Come on, all of you, attack! Today, I, Xiao Hongchen, will take on all seven of you in one fell swoop!"

"Throughout history, top geniuses have never been afraid of challenges. If you want to fight, then I will fight. I will use you as whetstones to hone myself into an even stronger version!"

On the high platform and below the competition stage, Xu Tianxi and Meng Hongchen turned their heads away simultaneously, their faces clearly saying, "I don't know this flamboyant guy."

Xu Tianxi was confident that he could kill Xiao Hongchen with one punch, but he still couldn't bring himself to say such a harsh thing in public.

"After two consecutive battles, my soul power is more than half depleted, and my qi and blood are unstable. They'll only behave themselves once they've exhausted all my soul power through their relentless attacks." Xu Tianxi thought to himself that Xiao Hongchen was really getting carried away.

Only Jing Hongchen, his eyes shining as he gazed at Xiao Hongchen, felt a deep sense of satisfaction, regarding Xiao Hongchen as the future hope of the Hongchen family.

A young man who isn't reckless and impetuous is a wasted youth.

Soon, a new genius from the Body Sect took the stage. This time, he was a Soul King with a calf-shaped martial soul that had never appeared before. He used speed to engage in hit-and-run tactics.

Xiao Hongchen chuckled coldly, manipulating the soul-guided cannon to bombard all directions without blind spots, forcefully blasting away his opponent with overwhelming firepower.

Seeing that he was about to utter more threats, Meng Hongchen couldn't stand it any longer. She flashed onto the stage, knocked the shameful old man unconscious with a palm strike, and then smiled gently at the Body Sect's tactics, saying:
"I'll take on your next battle. Please."

Under the bright sunshine, her soft, natural silver hair shimmered like stars. She calmly took out a pair of ice swords as thin as cicada wings, and her aura changed instantly.

"What should we do? Should we continue fighting?" Vina asked her companion. Meng Hongchen was also a Soul Saint with a 100,000-year Soul Ring, and apart from Long Aotian, no one in the Body Sect could rival him.

"Fight! We must fight no matter what!" Jin Peng declared, unwilling to see the Body Sect retreat without a fight.

Vina gave a wry smile: "Alright, I'll go first then."

Gu Tong said, "I'm fifth, Chen Yu is sixth..."

Jin Peng nodded vigorously: "The old man and the sect leader will watch you fight with all your might!"

Jin Peng placed high hopes on the younger generation of the Body Sect, for in a sense, they were the last sparks of genius from the original Three Kingdoms.

In the previous competitions, Tianlongmen was defeated by Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, Shrek Academy was eliminated by Heavenly Court, and only Body Sect remained of the original Three Kingdoms.

only……

Jin Peng soon realized that subjective expectations could not change the objective gap in strength. Meng Hongchen used his sword to break through the opponent's moves with astonishing speed, and every battle was almost a fatal blow.

Vina, Gu Tong, Chen Yu, and Lan Susu were all quickly defeated, and the Body Sect was eliminated, allowing the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy to advance to the finals.

This day's victory was a grand celebration for the people of the Sun Moon Empire. Their team had swept aside all their opponents and was about to meet in the final!
On the same day, Xu Tianxi received intelligence that a big fish was about to be caught in the net.

"Poseidon Island has reappeared and is currently reorganizing the Poseidon Alliance. It is suspected of colluding with the Holy Spirit Cult. Be careful."
