Peerless: I Became Huo Yuhao's Dark Personality

Chapter 89 The Final Game (Two in One)

"The first match of the second round of the round-robin tournament is between Shrek Academy and Tianhe Academy. Captains of both teams, please come on stage."

When the referee's voice fell, everyone in the reserve team looked at each other, their eyes expressing the same meaning.

It’s a sure thing! Being eliminated is a sure thing!

After the match with Xingluo Advanced Soul Instructor Academy, Wang Yan, with the mentality of having to fight no matter what, gathered everyone together and held a battle strength analysis meeting for other teams in the group.

Putting aside the two all-Soul King teams, the Tianhe Academy from the Tianhun Empire is the undisputed number one, and its strength is even stronger than the previous Xingluo Advanced Soul Instructor Academy.

The entire team is centered around Captain Yan Jie, whose soul power reaches level 58. In other words, team battles are the combat method that Tianhe Academy is best at.

Yan Jie has an ordinary appearance, a common face, but his temperament is the same as Bei Bei's. He looks very elegant and gentle. Looking at Bei Bei in front of him, he nodded slightly and said, "Hello."

"Hello." The other party took the initiative to show goodwill, and Beibei of course had to respond in kind, and nodded as well.

The two looked at each other and exerted force at the same time. The metal ball was thrown high into the air. After spinning several times, a small red ball fell out from the hole on the surface.

"The first match of the second round of the round-robin tournament is between Shrek Academy and Tianhe Academy. It will be a seven-man team battle. Players from both teams, please come on stage in one minute."

Beibei's expression remained unchanged, but after returning to the waiting area, he suddenly smiled bitterly and said with some guilt, "I got the worst result. It looks like today will be a tough battle."

"A tough fight? Haha, Beibei, you're such a joke. A tough fight only happens when both sides are equally strong. With our limited strength, we'd be lucky if we don't get slapped to death like a mosquito."

Seeing Beibei's slightly depressed expression, Xu Sanshi deliberately made a joke to liven up the atmosphere in the team.

"Let's go. Let's finish early and call it a day." Xu Sanshi stretched and walked lazily in front. This relaxed look really made Beibei feel a little better.

"Tianhe Academy, please give me some advice." On the stage, Yan Jie bowed slightly and said in a deep voice. His tone did not contain any contempt for the strength of Shrek and others, but was very solemn and serious.

"Shrek Academy, please give me some advice." Beibei's face was solemn. He saw the seriousness in the other party's eyes. It was that they regarded them as opponents from the bottom of their hearts. In response, Beibei responded with the same respect.

"You are very strong. If I were the same age as you, I wouldn't necessarily be your opponent. Although your average cultivation is lower, I will still give it my all."

Huo Yuhao and the others were surprised. In the past few games, they had more or less felt their opponents' contempt for them. That was the confidence that came from their own strength and was a normal psychological phenomenon.

People like Yan Jie are really rare. Everyone knows that a lion will use all its strength to fight a rabbit, but few people can actually do it.

You're a Titled Douluo, and you see a hundred-year-old soul beast and unleash your full power on it with your ninth soul skill. Is that possible? Is that reasonable? The answer is, of course, no.

The six people behind Yan Jie had the same expression, looking at Shrek and the others with scrutiny, as if they were observing their opponent's performance.

"Both parties please retreat to the edge of the arena." The referee's voice interrupted everyone's sighs and they all stepped back.

"Please share your names."

……

"The game begins!" After the announcement, the referee gave the order, and the players from both teams rushed forward in an orderly manner according to the tactics arranged in advance.

The three people from Shrek Academy remained motionless while the others rushed forward. The three who remained motionless were naturally Huo Yuhao, Ling Luochen, and He Caitou.

Huo Yuhao assisted Ling Luochen, while He Caitou was a long-range soul guide turret.

On the Tianhe Academy side, the figures running forward were the same as those of Shrek Academy, four people in total, and their captain Yan Jie was among them.

Yan Jie's appearance changed drastically at this moment. His dark red hair danced like flames, his pupils were also dark red, his body had more than doubled in size, his palms were as broad and heavy as a palm-leaf fan, and obvious white steam could be seen between his breaths.

The Flame Dragon Sheep is said to be the offspring of a pure-blooded fire dragon and a flame sheep. The offspring's blood carries the power of a fire dragon, and the flames it controls are also purified by the blood of the fire dragon. It is officially renamed the Flame Dragon Sheep.

And this is exactly Yan Jie's martial soul. Since ancient times, there has never been a weak martial soul with the word "dragon" in its name, not to mention that the Flame Dragon Sheep truly has pure fire dragon blood in its body.

The Dragon Clan is almost all famous for their own combat power. Yan Jie is undoubtedly a strong attack soul master. His first soul ring lights up and his body changes again.

Dense, fiery red scales appeared on his body, and his face, neck, and exposed hands were all covered with a layer of dragon scales.

This is the effect of Yan Jie's first soul skill. It stimulates the fire dragon bloodline in his martial soul and temporarily enters the pseudo-fire dragon martial soul state. In this state, his strength, speed, and defense are greatly improved.

Three people from Tianhe Academy were only possessed by martial spirits but did not take any actual action. At this moment, one of the spirit masters slowly rose into the air.

She was a woman with a rather peculiar appearance. Her eyes were one green and one blue, and behind her were a pair of green-blue wings. Apart from that, there were no other changes in her martial spirit possession.

Cheng Xi, whose martial soul is Shanniao, is an extremely peculiar soul beast. The female one is named Shanniao. It has no means of attack, but has very powerful auxiliary abilities.

The male is called the Evil Bird, which is completely opposite to the Good Bird. It has certain combat capabilities, but it is not very strong. However, once it receives the assistance of the Good Bird, it will burst out with powerful strength.

Therefore, the good birds and the evil birds have formed a complementary status, but for some unknown reason, the birth rate of good birds is much lower than that of evil birds, and their numbers are very rare, so it is common to see several evil birds fighting for good birds.

Cheng Xi's first three soul rings lit up repeatedly, and red, green and brown colored lights poured into the four people rushing forward in the number of 442. The three colors corresponded to the three attributes of attack, speed and defense respectively.

The two strong attack soul masters will receive three major increases, while the two agile attack soul masters will receive two increases in attack speed.

Four people were enhanced at once, and each of them had multiple states enhanced. Even with Cheng Xi Soul King's cultivation level, his face couldn't help but turn pale.

Tianhe Academy's Strong Attack Department and Agile Attack Department are both configured with one Soul King and one Soul Master. With Cheng Xi's speed increase, the Soul King-level Agile Attack Department Soul Master is already far ahead of everyone behind him.

Gong Yu, a level 52 War Soul King whose martial soul was the Fierce Wind Wolf, was at the front, his eyes fixed on Beibei who was also charging ahead.

In terms of speed, Jiang Nannan should be the strongest in the reserve team, but she was seriously injured in the last match against Xingluo Advanced Soul Instructor Academy. Now she can only lie in bed and even needs help with eating.

Gong Yu's eyes narrowed, and he immediately used his fifth soul skill. Beibei was shocked when he saw this, as he didn't expect the other party to be so decisive.

As Gong Yu's fifth spirit ring lit up, Bei Bei felt a chill in his heart, as if locked in place by something. His first and third spirit rings instinctively lit up, and he subconsciously slapped forward. Bei Bei felt his vision blur, and Gong Yu was standing before him, her wolf claws clashing with his Thunder Dragon Claws, amplified by Thunder Fury.

Such a quick reaction, was it a fighting instinct? A hint of surprise flashed in Gong Yu's eyes. He really didn't expect that the opponent, a Soul Master, could react to his attack.

Beibei's reaction was indeed timely, but the gap in cultivation could not be made up. The two claws collided, and the dark blue electric snake wrapped around the dragon claws was torn to pieces by the fierce wind like a sharp blade.

Gong Yu did not use much force, because her fifth soul skill was not a physical attack, but a strong wind like a metal blade.

Beibei only felt a gust of wind coming from the front, making him unable to stand, followed by a sharp pain. His arms, thighs, and torso were all cut with blood dripping from them, which looked horrifying.

Is that the end? Beibei stumbled back a few steps, somewhat puzzled. Although he looked miserable now, it was only a minor injury. Beibei didn't believe that he could withstand the fifth soul skill of an agile attack spirit master with such a minor injury.

At this moment, Gong Yu suddenly made a waving gesture. Beibei was stunned. The mental detection in his brain reminded him that there was a powerful soul power fluctuation coming from behind him, and the speed was so fast that he could not dodge it at all.

Before he could think too much, Beibei's fourth soul ring lit up, and a huge dragon head with a diameter of more than one meter emerged with the sound of thunder, but this undoubtedly brought a fatal problem, exposing his back to the enemy.

If Beibei was just a little surprised when she reacted to Gong Yu just now, she was really shocked now. Her fifth soul skill was the Wind Return Double Click, which had two attacks in total.

The first attack is a wind blade-like attack released from the front, with average damage, and will leave a mark on the opponent hit to facilitate the second counterattack.

The second counterattack was intangible and invisible. Ever since Gong Yu had the double-strike ability of wind, he had seen few people able to react to it. Even Yan Jie was hit the first time.

But now that it was discovered by a Four-Ring Soul Sect, how could Gong Yu not be shocked? He couldn't help but secretly admire him in his heart.

The Thunder Dragon Head seemed to have suffered a heavy blow when it was halfway through its flight. The entire dragon head seemed to be shattered, and the electric snakes scattered and disappeared into the air.

Although Beibei was ready to turn around and block after releasing the fourth soul skill, at such a close distance, facing an agile attack soul king with a speed boost, Gong Yu's attack arrived before he turned around.

The fourth soul skill, a wind-breaking strike! Gong Yuxu grasped an invisible gust of wind. Just as it was about to touch Beibei's back, he brought his five fingers together and transformed it into a palm strike that came down.

However, a golden circular barrier enveloped Beibei. It was the fourth-level special soul guide shield that had appeared in Hall 12 before. When fully activated, it could withstand the full force of the Soul King.

Gong Yu smashed his palm on the barrier, causing ripples. The barrier trembled continuously, but it did not break.

The counterattack from the Wind Return Double Attack was the fifth soul skill. Beibei's Thunder Dragon Head did offset part of it, but it was impossible to completely eliminate it, not to mention that she herself was also affected by the attack amplification.

This counterattack also fell on the soul guide shield at this moment. The golden barrier shook violently and turned into star-like light and dissipated.

Gong Yu's fourth soul skill plus the partially offset counterattack, even after Cheng Xi's attack amplification, is not enough to reach the level of a soul king's full-strength attack.

But the problem is that Beibei does not have enough soul power to support him to fully activate the soul guide shield. It is true that fully activating it can resist the full force attack of the Soul King, but it will also consume all the soul power of the Soul Master.

Beibei has been under the amplification of his third soul skill, Thunderous Fury. In this state, the power of each of his soul skills will be greatly increased, but so will the consumption.

Having just released the Thunder Dragon Claw and Thunder Dragon Head in this state, a full 40% of his soul power was consumed, and the soul guide shield instantly drained 50% of his soul power. The fact that he didn't fall to the ground now was a sign of his strong physical fitness.

The more soul power a soul master consumes, the weaker he will become. Once his soul power is exhausted, he will fall into a coma. This is the world rule of Douluo Continent.

Beibei was half-kneeling on the ground, gasping for breath. Only 10% of his soul power was left in his body, and his fighting power was almost non-existent.

But he was also somewhat relieved that he did not activate the soul guide shield immediately, otherwise the opponent's complete fourth soul skill and the second stage of the fifth soul skill would have fallen together, and his soul power might have been directly drained.

"Thank you." Gong Yu did not continue to attack, but bowed slightly. Beibei's previous amazing combat reactions had already made her regard the other party as an opponent.

Beibei felt helpless. He didn't expect that he would be the first to be eliminated. After recovering a little, he jumped off the arena on his own initiative. Gong Yu did not chase him, but he certainly would not be so shameless as to continue staying on the field.

The first round of confrontation between Tianhe Academy and Shrek Academy took place between Gong Yu and Bei Bei, while the second round was a clash between the control-type soul masters of both sides.

Cheng Xi was first, and her four soul rings lit up one after another. Two streams of red and silver light penetrated into the body of a woman under her. This female soul master now looked exactly like Ling Luochen, both holding a magic wand.

The only difference is that Ling Luochen was holding the Ice Staff, while she was holding the Sand Staff.

Shan Xin, Wuhun Sha, like Ling Luochen, are both elemental martial souls. Ice and fire are distinguished by temperature, but there is no standard for judging sand.

Shan Xin's first soul skill is the Sand Staff. Using it as a medium to perform soul skills has the effect of increasing power and control accuracy.

The fourth soul ring lit up, and a cloud of sand and dust quickly spread forward with Shan Xin as the base. Seeing this, Ling Luochen also responded with the fourth soul skill. In an instant, ice fog also began to spread to the field.

The audience suddenly erupted in boos. The huge stadium was now completely covered by sand, dust and icy fog, and they could not see anything clearly.

The people from Tianhe Academy who were rushing forward stopped, while the people from Shrek Academy, with Huo Yuhao's spiritual detection, saw that the other people all looked like they couldn't find the way, and they were immediately delighted and sped up again.

At this moment, a large amount of sand and dust began to gather purposefully, wrapping around Xu Sanshi, Wang Dong, and Xiao Xiao like a maggot attached to their bones. No matter how they struggled and dodged, it was of no avail.

At the same time, a bright and dazzling fire flashed from the center of the arena, which was exactly where Yan Jie was. A red light appeared on his back, and a red ring rotated and spread around him.

The icy fog that filled the sky was melted by the high temperature in the fire ring without exception after coming into contact with it. The ring eventually expanded to thirty meters, just enough to envelop the seven charging people from both sides.

Ling Luochen was shocked. With Huo Yuhao's help, her current attribute was the ultimate ice. However, in front of the opponent's fire ring, her ice mist collapsed.

There are only two explanations for this: either the other party is using absolute soul power to drive it, or the other party also has an ultimate martial soul.

The answer is obviously not the former. Yan Jie's face is calm at the moment, and he doesn't look like he has over-consumed his soul power. So, does that mean he is the ultimate fire?
A pure-blooded fire dragon is undoubtedly the ultimate fire. After activating the fire dragon bloodline, Yan Jie entered the pseudo-fire dragon martial spirit state, which is of course also the ultimate fire.

But the reason why he can compete with Ling Luochen is because both of them rely on external forces to cross the extreme threshold, and can never reach the true extreme.

For example, if Huo Yuhao’s cultivation level was equal to Yan Jie’s, this so-called ultimate fire would still be suppressed. The Ice Jade Scorpion could not compete with the pure-blooded Fire Dragon in terms of ecological niche, but Huo Yuhao was at least a complete form, while Yan Jie was at best a half-baked one.

The most important point is that Huo Yuhao’s martial soul is no longer a simple Ice Jade Scorpion, but the king among them, the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion. The Ice Emperor is on an equal footing with the pure-blooded Fire Dragon in terms of ecological niche.

The battle is about to break out!
