I've already been given the title of Douluo, and you want me to be reasonable?

Ye Lingling's 100,000-year soul ring emitted a dazzling blood-red light, and the Nine-Heart Begonia grew wildly behind her, its branches twisting into the shape of a towering tree, and its petals falling like blood-red meteors.

The temperature in the entire arena suddenly dropped, and a chill crept up everyone's spines, as if the Grim Reaper's scythe was already at their necks.

Tang San's pupils shrank sharply, and he slammed the crimson-gold Clear Sky Hammer in his hand into the ground, the shockwave making the surrounding audience tremble.

However, just as the Haotian Hammer was about to touch Ye Lingling, the blood-red petals suddenly transformed into chains, wrapping around the hammer handle.

Those seemingly delicate petals were incredibly resilient; no matter how hard Tang San exerted himself, the Clear Sky Hammer couldn't advance an inch.

"This...this is impossible!!"

Tang San gritted his teeth and roared, the massive soul power of the seven people merging surged wildly, trying to break free from the restraints of the petals.

But Ye Lingling's lips curled into a cold smile as her slender fingertips gently traced the stamens of the Nine-Heart Begonia.

"Under divine punishment, all living beings are but ants."

In an instant, nine enormous blood-red vortexes appeared in the sky, each vortex brimming with terrifying energy.

Ye Lingling's figure slowly rose into the air, and the phantom of the Nine-Heart Begonia merged with the blood-red vortex behind her, forming a giant magic array that blotted out the sky.

The light in the entire Soul Arena was swallowed by blood, as if it had entered eternal night, causing countless powerful figures to stare in disbelief at what was happening before their eyes.

The Shrek Academy students turned pale. Ning Rongrong and Oscar's soul power connection began to falter, and large beads of sweat appeared on their foreheads.

Yu Tianheng gritted his teeth and shouted, "Hold on! Our fusion technique hasn't even been used at full power yet!"

Before he could finish speaking, a crimson beam of light descended from the sky and struck the Haotian Hammer with pinpoint accuracy.

"boom……"

The violent explosion made everyone's eardrums ache. Tang San was forced to kneel on one knee by the blood-red pillar of light, and fine cracks appeared on the surface of the crimson-gold Clear Sky Hammer.

His soul power was flowing out like a flood breaking through a dam, and even the power of the evil god began to stir restlessly under the blood-red pressure.

"How can this be……"

Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang suddenly stood up, his eyes filled with disbelief. He had never expected that his painstakingly researched Seven-in-One Martial Soul Fusion Technique would be so vulnerable in the face of Ye Lingling's 100,000-year-old soul skill.

Ye Lingling hovered in the air, surrounded by a nine-colored halo, like a deity descending: "Tang San, do you think you can challenge the inheritance of a god with just a fusion technique? You're too naive."

She raised her hand and waved it lightly, and nine blood-red vortexes simultaneously released energy shocks. Countless blood-red petals transformed into sharp blades, sweeping towards the Shrek Academy students.

Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun simultaneously released their martial spirits. The phantoms of the white tiger and phoenix attempted to block the attack, but the petal blades easily pierced through their defenses, leaving several bloody marks on the two men.

Oscar and Ning Rongrong's support abilities were almost rendered useless under such terrifying pressure, and they collapsed to the ground, no longer possessing their previous abilities.

"Why? She's just a support-type Soul Master, how could she possibly possess the abilities of a power-attack-type Soul Master...?"

Dugu Yan's face was as pale as paper. She finally understood why her grandfather was so eager for her to return to the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy, and why Ye Lingling had achieved such success.

At this moment, Ye Lingling was simply beyond their ability to contend with. Even though they unleashed their full power to release the Azure Phosphorus Serpent Venom, the poisonous mist instantly dissipated before the crimson energy. "Haotian Hammer, Chaotic Cloak!"

Tang San roared and forcibly mobilized the remaining soul power in his body, swinging the Clear Sky Hammer in an attempt to use offense as defense.

However, Ye Lingling simply smiled, and the petals of the Nine-Heart Begonia phantom suddenly contracted, forming a huge cage that trapped the Shrek Academy students inside.

"Second Soul Skill of Ten Thousand Years, Nine Heart Begonia - Eternal Prison!"

The pressure inside the blood-red cage continued to rise, and the Shrek members felt their bones groaning under the unbearable strain.

Tang San's weapon spirit form began to disintegrate, and the crimson-gold Clear Sky Hammer shattered into countless fragments.

Under the pressure of this energy, blood spilled from the corner of Tang San's mouth, and the soul power of the seven people in his body was suppressed and dimmed.

"Cough cough..." Tang San knelt on the ground, the combined soul power of the seven completely dissipated, and the other Shrek members also fell to the ground, losing their ability to fight.

Ye Lingling landed slowly, the light of the crimson soul ring gradually dissipated, and the Nine Heart Begonia returned to its small form.

Ye Lingling glanced at the Shrek Academy members who were sprawled on the ground, her tone tinged with pity.

"You are strong, but in the face of absolute power, you are nothing but ants."

The entire arena fell silent; everyone was too stunned to speak by the terrifying difference in strength.

Bibi Dong gripped the scepter tightly, a hint of fear flashing in her eyes. She had originally thought that Shrek Academy could cause considerable trouble for the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, but she hadn't expected to be defeated so easily.

Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang staggered to Tang San's side and helped him up. Tang San wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at Ye Lingling's back with resentment in his eyes.

"I will not give up... One day, I will surpass you!"

Ye Lingling left the arena without looking back, leaving behind only a mess.

The Spirit Hall's golden generation is also feeling unprecedented pressure. They understand that if they want to win the championship, facing the Heaven Dou Royal Academy will be a true life-or-death battle.

Zhu Zhuqing stepped up to Tang San. Looking at her former third brother, Zhu Zhuqing showed no interest whatsoever and said indifferently, "Tang San, you are ultimately too arrogant."

Tang San looked at Zhu Zhuqing, who was looking down so low that her toes were invisible, clenched his fist and said, "Zhu Zhuqing, you don't need to pretend here. I, Tang San, will never admit defeat again."

"Losing is losing. If you can't even accept failure, then you don't deserve to be a qualified Soul Master."

As Zhu Zhuqing finished speaking, she looked at Dai Mubai, who was also kneeling on the ground. Facing this heartless man, Zhu Zhuqing's face no longer held the emotions she had shown back then.

In her eyes, Dai Mubai was no longer qualified to be her fiancé; he was completely unworthy.

Moreover, Dai Mubai has now lost his fertility and doesn't even have the strength to lift himself up, let alone leave a seed for the empire.

Tang San gritted his teeth, struggled to his feet, and looked at Zhu Zhuqing as she left, angrily saying, "Zhu Zhuqing, you have a way to die!"

Dai Mubai struggled to his feet, blood streaming from his mouth and nose, his body trembling as he said, "Zhu Zhuqing... Heaven Dou Royal Academy, I will make you pay the price! I will make you grovel before me, fawning over me like a prostitute!" (End of Chapter)
