Douluo Jueshi: Picking up Firefly at the Beginning

Chapter 188 The Growth of Huo Wu

The first game has begun. The first to appear is Blazing Academy. Their opponent is a team called Fabia Academy.

The first person to appear on behalf of Chihuo Academy was the captain Huo Wushuang. Although many people wanted to see Liuxing appear, Liuxing was not very interested in the upcoming game.

He just wanted to enter the finals as soon as possible, fight with the angel god Qian Renxue, and then send out the knight token in his hand.

But since he had promised Huo Tianxin to help Chihuo Academy win the championship, he would do what he said.

After learning from Ye Guyi that Qian Renxue was going to participate in this competition, Liuxing was looking forward to the finals.

The intensity of the qualifying round is really too low, far inferior to the competition that Meteor and his team had.

The promotion match determines the ranking, not the elimination. It doesn't matter if Chihuo Academy loses. This is also a kind of training. Liuxing is not so bored as to snatch the training opportunity from Huowu and others.

The game proceeds very quickly. Once there is a gap in strength between soul masters, the outcome is often a matter of seconds. Whoever has stronger soul skills and a higher level of soul power can easily defeat the opponent.

After all, there are only a very small number of soul masters who possess soul bones.

In a one-on-one match, there is no possibility of martial soul fusion skills, everything must rely on one's own strength.

In the first match, Huo Wushuang defeated three opponents in a row, and was defeated only after his soul power was greatly depleted.

There is no rest time in continuous fighting, which is also a test. After all, the soul power of a soul master is not endless. As long as the soul skills are released, there will be consumption, unless the strength gap is really big enough to kill the opponent easily.

The second person to represent Chihuo Academy was Huo Wu. As the only two girls in Chihuo Academy, Liuying and Huo Wu have a good relationship. In terms of fire-type soul skills, Liuying helped Huo Wu a lot.

After all, this might be her future knight. If she trains him in advance, she will be able to invite Huo Wu to join the Nevernight Palace more easily.

Huo Wu has great talent and her own secret technique. Her martial soul also has room for improvement. The awakening secret technique of the Body Sect is difficult to obtain, but there will always be a chance, and then Huo Wu's martial soul talent will take off.

You don’t need to ask for a gold-level second awakening, a silver-level second awakening will be enough to take off.

Although the time was not long, Liuying's understanding of soul skills was incomparable to Huo Wu's. After being trained by Liuying, Huo Wu's strength improved greatly.

Although she is a control-type soul master, Huo Wu defeated four opponents on her own. In terms of performance, she is better than her brother Huo Wushuang.

Seeing his sister become so strong, Huo Wushuang looked at Liuxing with resentment. He also wanted someone to give her some special treatment.

Meteor shuddered and quickly waved his hands, saying, "Don't look at me like that. I'll give you some pointers when I have time."

"Really, thank you, brother. If you weren't already taken, I would really like to marry my sister to you."

Huo Wushuang hugged Liuxing's shoulders and spoke in a nonsensical tone.

Liuxing's mouth twitched when he heard this. Good man, I wanted to recruit you as my subordinate, but you wanted to be my brother-in-law. You have such sinister intentions.

Huo Wu, who had just come down from the ring and whose pretty face was pale due to the huge consumption of soul power, happened to hear these words. She was so angry that her face turned red, and there was murderous intent in her eyes when she looked at Huo Wushuang.

"Uh! Sister, listen to my explanation, I was just joking."

Huo Wushuang suddenly felt a chill on his back. He turned his head stiffly and just happened to see Huo Wu's murderous eyes.

"Bless yourself, brother."

Liuxing patted Huo Wushuang's shoulder, a happy smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he turned and left.

Just two people defeated their opponents, causing people from other academies to look at Chihuo Academy with solemn eyes.

"How come Sister Huo Wu suddenly became so much stronger?"

In the Shinfeng Academy, Feng Xiaotian touched his head in confusion. He often practiced with Huo Wu and Huo Wushuang. Although he always lost more than he won, that was because he let them win. He still knew Huo Wu's strength very well.

In the battle just now, Huo Wu's control of fire, the timing of releasing soul skills, and even the power of soul skills have become several points stronger.

"Is it because of him?"

In Tianshui College, Shui Bing'er also noticed that Huo Wu had become stronger, but her eyes were on Liu Xing. Thinking of what Liu Xing had said to her before, she made a certain decision in her heart.

Although the Fabia Academy team was not very strong among all the fifteen participating teams, Blazing Academy easily defeated them with only two people, and still stood out among the many participating academies.

The following competitions also proceeded very quickly. Liuxing also saw that the academy teams promoted from kingdoms and principalities were much worse than the several major academies promoted from the Tiandou Empire.

If they came to the Tiandou competition area, they might not even be able to make it to the qualifying round.

Most of them have the cultivation level of Soul Venerable, and even Soul Master is very rare.

From this perspective, the competition for the top few places in the qualifying round will still be decided among the five teams that qualify from Tiandou City.

In the subsequent match, Shrek Academy faced Barak Academy. Xiao Wu faced a Soul Master with the Sunflower Spirit, and defeated her opponent with the Acacia Heartbreak Red. This was considered cheating, but among the referees and the spectators, only Shrek Academy, Meteor, and Firefly knew that it was the power of the Acacia Heartbreak Red. Everyone else simply believed it was Xiao Wu's own strength.

Even the Platinum Bishop Salas and others in the stands thought it was the effect of Xiao Wu's soul bone.

The people from Shrek Academy would definitely not expose Xiao Wu, and Liuxing had no intention of interfering in their affairs. After all, they were not fighting against their Blazing Academy.

At the end of the first round of competition, all five teams that qualified from Tiandou City won, which made Emperor Xue Ye nod in satisfaction.

These five teams represent their Tiandou Empire.

Emperor Xue Ye, who was in a good mood, announced on the spot that all the winning academies today would be rewarded with 1,000 gold soul coins each, and the losing academies would also be rewarded with 500 gold soul coins.

After the first day of competition, the teachers from each academy came on stage to draw lots, and Blazing Academy drew Shrek Academy again.

Although it is a round-robin tournament and every academy will meet each other, the fact that they meet Shrek Academy so early can only be said to be destined to meet each other.

"Do you want to go up and play?"

Liuxing leaned close to Liuying's ear and whispered.

Feeling the hot breath of Meteor, Liuying's earlobes turned red. She shook her head and said, "Too weak. Not interested."

"Well then, since winning or losing won't affect our advancement to the finals, it might as well give Huo Wu and the others some practice."

Meteor also lost his initial interest in Shrek Academy. Because of the rules of the competition, Tang San could not use those powerful hidden weapons at all. Moreover, in such an unimportant competition, he would not reveal the Clear Sky Hammer, which would be even more boring.

But without him and Liuying, Chihuo Academy would not be a match for Shrek Academy.

The pace of the promotion round is much faster than that of the qualifiers. There are no ordinary spectators, and all that is important is the results of the competition. Without those tedious processes and the noise of the audience, it makes it easier for the soul masters to show their strength.

As expected by Liuxing, without Liuxing and Liuying on the field, Chihuo Academy was no match for Shrek Academy.

Although Huo Wu was trained by Liuying, the time was too short and her strength improvement could not be achieved overnight.

Except for Ning Rongrong and Oscar from the auxiliary department of Shrek Academy, the other five people participated in the battle. Although the strength of Blazing Academy had improved a lot after a month, and the brothers Huoyun and Huoyu broke through from level 39 to level 40 and had four Soul Masters, they still lost to Shrek Academy.

Although Huo Wu was very unwilling, they were indeed inferior in skills.

After the game, Huo Wu became even more attached to Liu Ying. It was obvious that she was stimulated and wanted to become stronger, which was a good thing.

The only drawback is that it disturbs the world of meteors and fireflies.

Time passed day by day, the qualifying round went smoothly, and Liuxing also saw Feng Xiaotian fighting with all his strength.

Feng Xiaotian was originally one of his targets, and he would certainly not let go of the Battle Meteor that was paying attention to him. It must be said that although Feng Xiaotian was a little older and had some problems with his brain, his strength was still quite good.

At least he was the only one besides Meteor who forced Tang San to take out the Clear Sky Hammer. Of course, in the match against Meteor, Tang San was knocked unconscious by Meteor before he could take out the Clear Sky Hammer.

This battle was a battle between Feng Xiaotian's self-created soul skill, the Swift Wind Wolf's Thirty-Six Consecutive Slashes, and Tang San's Clear Sky Hammer's Chaos Cloak Hammer Technique.

It was also this battle that exposed Tang San's identity as the owner of twin martial spirits and his identity as a disciple of the Haotian Sect.

When Tang San used the Chaos Cloak Hammer Technique, Feng Xiaotian was doomed to fail.

Although his self-created soul skills are powerful, how can they compare to the Haotian Sect's Chaos Cloak Hammer Technique? Tang San won the game, but he was not happy because his background was exposed.

But he did not regret it, because he wanted to win victory for Shrek Academy.

However, he did not notice that the Spirit Hall's Platinum Bishop Salas looked at him with murderous intent.

Twin martial souls and being a disciple of the Haotian Sect, this has touched Sarath's bottom line.

The grudge between the Haotian Sect and the Spirit Hall is not small. After the death of the former Pope of the Spirit Hall, the Haotian Sect was forced to hide from the world, and the relationship between the two sides can be described as like water and fire.

At this point, the promotion round is over, and the next step is the finals. This elite competition for advanced soul master academies across the continent has come to an end.

At the end of the game, Emperor Xueye undoubtedly gave him another impassioned encouragement.

The upcoming finals will be the real battle to determine the strongest academy, although some people know very well that as long as Meteor and Firefly take action, Blazing Academy will undoubtedly reach the top.

Although Liuxing and Liuying are not from the Tiandou Empire, the Chihuo Academy they represent is an academy of the Tiandou Empire. The victory of Chihuo Academy also means that the Tiandou Empire has won the championship.

Emperor Xue Ye was in high spirits at the thought of defeating the Spirit Hall and the Star Luo Empire to win the championship. He even found the aged face of Bishop Sarath more pleasing to the eye.
