Douluo Jueshi: Picking up Firefly at the Beginning

Chapter 196 Lingling, I seem to be targeted by bad guys
Ye Lingling seemed to feel the meteor's gaze, and looked up at the meteor with a strange look.

Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan's faces turned dark. Liuxing completely ignored them and focused all his attention on Ye Lingling, which made flames burn in their eyes.

At the referee's announcement, the game begins.

Although Yu Tianheng and others had already ignited their fighting spirit, they still couldn't help but hold their breath after seeing the spirit ring on Liu Xing.

Meteor, who was standing at the front, had five soul rings rising one by one on his body: two purple, two black, and one red. A powerful pressure silently pressed on the seven people from Tiandou Royal Academy, making them sweat profusely.

Exclamations were heard from outside the venue. Apparently, there were still people present who didn't know about the existence of meteors. Even those who had read information about meteors couldn't help but feel shocked. Information is just information, but when you really see it with your own eyes, the shock is something that cannot be calmed down no matter what.

"I hope Yanyan won't be too shocked when she encounters this little monster."

Dugu Bo sat in the VIP seat of the Tiandou Empire, frowned, and muttered.

He originally thought that Tang San was the biggest little monster, but after seeing the meteor, he understood that there are always people better than you.

You know, even he and the Sword Douluo beside him don’t have a hundred thousand year spirit ring!
Liuxing took a step forward. Huo Wu and the others looked at each other, then took two steps back in tacit understanding, leaving the battlefield to Liuxing.

Under the cover of the dazzling soul ring, flames shot up into the sky, half of the arena was ignited by the high temperature, the air was burning, and the temperature rose rapidly.

The huge soul power fluctuations spread out, making it difficult for Yu Tianheng and others to breathe.

The thin air also made it difficult for them to breathe.

A flash of lightning flashed between Yu Tianheng's eyebrows, and blue electric currents wandered around his body. The clothes on his right arm burst, and his entire right arm turned into a thick dragon claw, with blue-purple scales clearly visible.

A green scale appeared between Dugu Yan's eyebrows, and her legs turned into a thick snake tail. She relied on the snake tail to support her body, swinging back and forth.

Meteor's figure turned into an afterimage in the flames and instantly came in front of Yu Tianheng. In his horrified eyes, he ignored the thunder and lightning around him and knocked him into the ring with one punch.

"Oh!"

The arena was made of granite and reinforced by soul masters. It should have been able to withstand attacks below the Soul Emperor level, but it cracked under Meteor's punch.

It can be seen how powerful the force of this punch is, which can also be seen from Yu Tianheng's broken blue-purple scales and the blood he spitted out.

"Tianheng!"

Dugu Yan had never expected that the meteor would be so fast. She watched Yu Tianheng being knocked down by a punch. Anger flashed in Dugu Yan's eyes, and the third soul ring on her body shone. She spewed out a thick purple poisonous mist from her mouth and sprayed it towards the meteor.

However, as soon as the purple poisonous mist approached the meteor, it made a hissing sound and was vaporized in the high temperature, turning into a puff of white smoke and dissipating.

Poison is ineffective against extreme fire.

Liuxing glanced at Dugu Yan, and appeared in front of her as if teleporting. He stroked her lower abdomen with his right palm, applying a little force.

"Pfft!"

A mouthful of blood suddenly spurted out of Dugu Yan's mouth, and the next moment, her body fell limply at Liuxing's feet.

Seeing this scene, Dugu Bo in the VIP seat suddenly clenched his fists with an ugly expression.

It was not until this time that the remaining people of Tiandou Royal Academy realized that the battle had only started for a few seconds and the captain and vice-captain were knocked down, which was unbelievable to them.

The Black Panther Soul Master Osro and the Wind Chime Bird Soul Master Yufeng looked at each other and pounced on the meteor at the same time, but with two muffled sounds, their bodies flew back and fell in front of the brothers Shi Mo and Shi Mo with blood spitting out of their mouths, rolling and struggling.

The Shi brothers were wearing khaki tortoise shells, emitting yellow light all over their bodies. They carefully stood in front of Ye Lingling with despair on their faces.

"Crack!"

The tortoise shell shattered, the yellow light dissipated, and the meteor slowly passed by the Shi brothers and came in front of the dazed Ye Lingling.

"Miss, you don't want treatment?"

Meteor's tone was exceptionally gentle.

"you?"

Ye Lingling came to her senses and subconsciously took a step back, like a frightened bird.

"Don't worry, I won't hit you. Hurry up and heal your teammates. They are seriously injured."

Meteor chuckled.

Although Ye Lingling didn't know what Liu Xing was planning, she knew that Yu Tianheng and the others were indeed seriously injured. She held her hands to her chest, and a pink crabapple flower suddenly appeared in front of her. It was composed of white and pink petals, with bright colors and graceful posture. Leaves and branches slid down from both sides, and the soft vines swayed in the wind, with petals drooping.

Along with a faint and pleasant fragrance, white light in the shape of petals emerged and slowly floated down, landing directly on the six people from Tiandou Royal Academy.

As the petals merged into their bodies, Yu Tianheng and the others trembled and miraculously climbed up. Their injuries were recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye, and they soon regained their fighting power.

Seeing this scene, Liuxing looked at Ye Lingling with even more fiery eyes. As expected, she was worthy of being the Nine-Hearted Begonia. In order to test Ye Lingling's healing ability, he deliberately used heavy hands. It would take Yu Tianheng and others several days to recover.

But under Ye Lingling's Nine-Heart Begonia's treatment, he was able to stand up in just a few seconds, and his condition got better and better as time passed.

"Miss, you are so awesome!"

Liuxing's fiery eyes scared Ye Lingling, making him hide behind the Shi brothers who stood up like a frightened rabbit.

"What do you mean?"

Yu Tianheng covered his chest with his hands, blood still hanging from the corner of his mouth, and stared at the meteor.

"It's nothing special. I just wanted to see what this young lady is capable of. Do you still want to fight?"

Liuxing laughed and said that he would never tell Yu Tianheng that he wanted to poach people.

"We throw in the towel."

Yu Tianheng gritted his teeth. Although his injuries had recovered, if Meteor could kill them once, it could kill them a second time. The gap in strength was too big. Even if they had Ye Lingling to keep them fighting, it would be meaningless.

"Miss, we'll see each other again."

After greeting Ye Lingling, Liuxing turned around and walked off the stage.

Ye Lingling's face showed bitterness. "Mother, Lingling, it seems like I'm being targeted by a bad guy."

Meteor, unaware that Ye Lingling had labeled him a villain, was in high spirits. Ye Lingling hadn't let him down. Her group healing abilities were truly terrifying. If used on the battlefield, as long as Ye Lingling possessed sufficient soul power, she could single-handedly forge an entire undead army. As long as they weren't instantly killed, they could rise again and fight under Ye Lingling's power. Such an army's might on the battlefield would be terrifying.

Moreover, Ye Lingling's abilities can be used in more ways than just this one. She is indeed a strategic talent valued by Meteor. Ye Lingling, they are determined to establish the Nevernight Palace, and no one can stop them. Sam said it, and who dares to object?

The game ended at such a speed that it was astonishing. If they said that the battle between Shrek Academy and Xingluo Royal Academy was exciting, they would be shocked.

So, what the meteor brought to them was an overwhelming shock. With the power of just one person, he defeated Tiandou Royal Academy, one of the seed teams, and he did all this in just a dozen seconds. What a terrifying dominance.

The gap in strength makes people despair.

Everyone's faces froze, including Hu Liena and the other two.

The strength displayed by Meteor at this moment was much more terrifying than what was seen on the soul guide screen more than two years ago.

At this moment, no academy anymore dreamed of winning the championship. The meteor was like a big devil, blocking their way to the championship throne and making them lose their fighting spirit.

The only ones who still maintained some fighting spirit at the scene were Shrek Academy and Spirit Hall Academy.

Although the two colleges are very strong, no one is optimistic about them at this time.

After the third round of competition, there were only six teams left in the entire competition. Two of the three seeded teams were eliminated on the same day, leaving only the Wuhun Hall Academy.

There is no doubt that among the remaining six teams, the Blazing Academy where Meteor is located is a gap, and only the Spirit Hall Academy can compete with them.

Only Shrek Academy is still able to fight, the others are just supporting roles.

Tomorrow's draw will determine many things. No one wants to encounter Blazing Academy first, as that means facing the Meteor Demon King.

The Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition has now come to an end. The academies that have reached this stage can be considered to have completed their respective tasks.

The fourth round of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition began after a day's rest.

The final six teams were drawn to determine their opponents.

Coincidentally, the strongest Blazing Academy, Spirit Hall Academy, and Shrek Academy did not meet each other.

This also meant that the fourth round of the competition ended without any suspense, and the final three were actually their three colleges.

The finals are right in front of them, and they are only one step away from the final championship.

The bright sunshine fell on the earth. Under the sunlight, the Pope's Palace looked even more magnificent, like the residence of gods.

In front of the Pope's Palace, two rows of palace guards stretched from the door of the Pope's Palace to the foot of the mountain. Their bright silver armor and heavy knight swords made the entire Pope's Palace even more majestic.

The eliminated teams have already left and were not even allowed to watch the final day's battle. Only the true winners are qualified to set foot on the square in front of the Pope's Palace.

Early in the morning, the three teams that entered the finals had already appeared in front of the Pope's Palace and were waiting quietly. The teachers from the three major colleges were not allowed to stand in the square and could only wait on the outside.

Among the three teams, Meteor and Firefly stood together. In this final, Liuying would also play, but both of them had their eyes on the Spirit Hall team.

In addition to Hu Liena and the other two who had fought before, the Spirit Hall team replaced two new players. The others were confused, but Liuxing and Liuying were very familiar with one of them, and as for who the other one was, it was self-evident.

The two new people who came on the scene from the Spirit Hall were Ye Guyi and Qian Renxue.

At Shrek Academy, all the Shrek Seven Devils appeared and stood aside in a low-key manner.

The square in front of the Pope's Palace is no smaller than the arena used in previous competitions. The square is paved with special stones. If you look carefully, you can find that the stones have a faint lustrous glow.

This is a special material, very precious, but it is used by the Spirit Hall to pave the floor. If the soul masters of the Sun-Moon Empire saw this, they would definitely curse it as a waste of resources.

The Spirit Hall is always showing off their wealth and power.

A group of people walked out from the side door of the Pope's Palace. A total of twelve cardinals, whose status was second only to the Platinum Bishop, slowly walked over. They walked all the way to the door of the Pope's Palace, standing on the left and right, with six people on each side.

The leader said loudly: "His Majesty the Pope has arrived."

"Long live, long live, long live." Three loud shouts echoed throughout Wuhun City like landslides and tsunamis.

"Long live" is generally used to describe the emperors of the two empires, but the Pope of the Spirit Hall dares to use this slogan openly, which shows the strength of the Spirit Hall.

The palace knights guarding the Pope's Palace and the soul masters outside the Pope's Palace shouted together, with fanaticism in their eyes, because the Pope was the highest faith in their eyes.

This was the subtle influence after Bibi Dong became the Pope. You know, the popes of all generations, although of the same noble status, were always the human servants of the angel gods, and most soul masters also believed in the angel gods, not the pope.

What Bibi Dong did was to steal the faith of the Angel God.

But no one stood up to stop her. It’s not that there were no people, but the Worship Hall remained silent. These people were no match for Bibi Dong and did not cause any trouble.

The huge palace door slowly opened, and the six emblems on the two doors gradually deviated from the track.

Everyone's eyes unconsciously looked in the direction of the open door. Even Qian Renxue was looking at the door with a complicated expression.

Bibi Dong, wearing a golden long dress, a purple gold crown on her head, holding a scepter in her hand and with a solemn expression on her face, was the first to walk out of the Pope's Palace.

Her beautiful face and the majesty of the Pope made her look like an empress.

Of course, she is indeed the Queen and the Pope.

The golden gown fitted her perfectly, shimmering with dazzling brilliance, adorned with over a hundred red, blue, and gold gemstones. The purple-gold crown atop her head was even more dazzling, all the light focused on her at that moment.

All the members of Wuhun Palace knelt down on one knee at this moment, "See His Majesty the Pope."

Liuxing leaned close to Liuying's ear and whispered, "From now on, our Queen Liuying will also have this kind of pomp and ceremony."

Liuying rolled her eyes in annoyance and ignored Liuxing.

She is not very interested in these.

Behind Bibi Dong, there were four people, three of whom were wearing bright red suits. Unlike the cardinal's all-red suit, their red suits were inlaid with gold and silver patterns, especially the gem on their chest that was shining with golden light and was as big as a baby's fist, which was full of luxury.

For ordinary people, perhaps this dress only symbolizes nobility, but for soul masters, it is the greatest honor, because only Titled Douluo are qualified to wear this red dress.
