Douluo Dalu: Golden Spirit Tree

Chapter 241 Champion, Confrontation, and Collaboration
"Okay, Tang Ya, I'm here, don't worry. You guys go prepare for the competition. Once you win the championship, we'll go back to Shrek."

Bei Bei was startled when she was interrupted, and then she noticed the solemnity hidden in Lin Yi's words.

Without asking any questions, Bei Bei nodded and took Huo Yuhao and others to the side to discuss the tactics for the next step.

In fact, there is nothing left to discuss.

It is not allowed to replace players during the finals. After the seven players are determined for the individual competition, the subsequent team competition can only consist of these seven players.

This was true not only in the finals but throughout the entire tournament.

Once there are casualties in the individual competition, the team will have to compete in the subsequent team competition with an incomplete team.

It is a great test of the contestants' hard power and sustained combat capability.

After three battles, only Beibei appeared on Shrek's side. Although the consumption was not small, the Soul Saint's recovery speed was far faster than that of the middle and low-level Soul Masters.

What's more, Beibei had taken several magical herbs before, and his physical fitness was far beyond ordinary, and his total soul power was also far beyond that of soul masters of the same level. Adding the two together, Beibei's strength was almost still at its peak.

On the other hand, the Holy Spirit Team.

Three players were eliminated in three games.

Two were killed and one was taken away. How can one describe the sadness and despair?

There were only six people in the Holy Spirit Team originally, and if three more were subtracted, there would only be three left.

Facing the Shrek Team at its peak, no matter how confident Yan Feng was in his own abilities, he could not guarantee that he could lead the Holy Spirit Team to victory.

Beibei alone was enough to make him try his best. His previous plan to consume his energy was in vain. Yan Feng did not expect that Beibei's attack would be fatal. The previous three people's attack not only failed to weaken Beibei, but he took the opportunity to kill him, and the already incomplete Holy Spirit Team was severely damaged.

Although the evil soul master's methods are strange and he can always use his tricky soul skills to kill people at a higher level, he must also abide by the basic laws.

The combat skills of the Shrek team members are not low, and they often carry out the task of hunting down evil soul masters. They all have a certain degree of understanding of evil soul masters, and evil soul masters do not have a clear advantage over them.

Coupled with the absolute disadvantage in numbers, the Holy Spirit Team was almost certain to be defeated.

Thinking that the Holy Spirit Church ended up like this because of his own mistake in command, Yan Feng couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

Although he is the leader's direct disciple, this is not the case in the Holy Spirit Church.

Previously, the third elder’s disciple had his head smashed because he said something wrong.

Even if I have outstanding talents, I can't say that I can get through this safely.

Ming Yao and Zhang Peng looked at each other and saw that the fighting spirit of the remaining three people had dropped to an extreme level.

Zhang Peng naturally didn't care. He was the Sixth Worshiper of the Worship Hall and a Super Douluo of level 96. Even if all his actions after leaving the mountain ended in disgrace, his cultivation level was still there and nothing could happen to him.

The same goes for the Life Demon. As the Son of God, he was able to hold Lin Yi back by himself, which was already a great achievement, and no one could say anything.

But the Holy Spirit Team was like this, and they didn’t look good either.

The fate demon then said: "When you fight, use all your strength. If it is impossible, just try your best to protect yourself."

After saying that, he sent a message to Yan Feng: "In this competition, the real place to decide the outcome is outside the game. You just need to do your best, the result doesn't matter."

Yan Feng suddenly looked up at the destiny demon. These words contained too much information.

"Don't make it public."

The fate demon sent a message again, frowning slightly.

Yan Feng's heart trembled, and he nodded imperceptibly, looking at the fate demon with eyes full of gratitude.

Zhang Peng's eyes moved slightly, and he probably guessed what Mingyao and Yan Feng had said. Although this matter was confidential, Yan Feng was the leader's direct disciple after all, so he had to give him some face and pretended not to see it.

After a brief delay, Zheng Zhan announced the entry of both players on the competition stage.

The seven members of the Shrek team filed in, but the Holy Spirit team had only three members, looking a bit shabby.

Beibei instantly focused his attention on Yan Feng. His intuition told him that this was the last obstacle for the Holy Spirit Church.

"Both parties share the same name".

"Shrek, Beibei".

"Shrek, and Cai Tou".

"Shrek, Xu Sanshi".

"Shrek, Jiang Nannan."

"Shrek, Xiaoxiao."

"Shrek, Huo Yuhao."

"Shrek, Wang Donger".

This is the first time that the Shrek team has sent out a full complement of members to this competition.

"Holy Spirit Sect, Words and Style".

"Holy Spirit Sect, Tang Dynasty".

"Holy Spirit Sect, Gu Yu".

Both sides retreated to the edge of the competition stage and formed their battle formations.

Shrek's formation is regular.

At the front was Xu Sanshi, a defensive soul master, and Jiang Nannan stuck close behind him, completely concealing her figure.

On the left and right wings of Xu Sanshi are Beibei and Wang Donger. These two soul masters with light attributes undoubtedly have great restraint on evil soul masters.

Behind the four people was Xiao Xiao, and after that was He Caitou, the soul guide.

At the end of the formation, Huo Yuhao, the control-type soul master, was already ready.

For the Holy Spirit Team, formation no longer matters.

Yan Feng stood at the front, Tang Dai stood one body length behind, on Yan Feng's left, and at the back was Gu Yu.

"The game begins."

As soon as Zheng Zhan's voice fell, both sides erupted.

Yan Feng was immediately possessed by his martial spirit, and seven spirit rings, two yellow, two purple, and three black, swirled up.

Another Soul Saint, the third Soul Saint of the Holy Spirit Team.

If the first two had not withdrawn, this battle would have been extremely difficult for Shrek.

But now, Yan Feng is the only one left among the three Soul Saints, and coupled with the numerical disadvantage, this battle is bound to be difficult.

But Yan Feng was not panicked at all. He had heard the hint from the Fate Demon very clearly. The Holy Spirit Church had other plans after the game. In this battle, winning or losing did not matter.

But he couldn't admit defeat directly. He needed to fight and pretend. Otherwise, even if he was the leader's direct disciple, it would not be justifiable.

At the beginning of the game, Yan Feng had already made up his mind to go straight in and fight to see if he could achieve any results. Regardless of whether he achieved any, he would just admit defeat after the fight to save himself.

As for the other two, Yan Feng didn't care about their life or death. This was the Holy Spirit Church, not a loving family.

Thoughts raced through his mind, and Yan Feng did not hesitate to directly light up his seventh soul ring and unleash his strongest move, his martial soul's true form.

Beside Yan Feng, Tang Dai had just completed the possession of the Skeleton King's martial spirit, and his body became extremely large, half a head taller than Lu Genggeng's previous hatred martial spirit, but not as fat.

A three-meter-long bone staff appeared in Gu Yu's hand, and evil energy gradually spread.

Compared with the Holy Spirit Sect, Shrek was certainly not idle either.

Beibei was possessed by the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, and his vertical pupils were fixed on Yan Feng. His body had also moved to the center, facing Yan Feng from a distance.

Xu Sanshi stepped back and came to the center of the Shrek Seven. Wang Donger turned around and surrounded He Caitou with Jiang Nannan, Xiaoxiao, and He Caitou.

What is this doing?
Zheng Zhan was a little confused watching this scene.

But Zheng Zhan soon understood.

The Xuanming tortoise shell shield was raised high, and the fourth soul ring around Xu Sanshi suddenly lit up.

The magical skill of the competition, Xuanming replacement, is activated.

Then, a huge skeleton appeared and surrounded He Caitou, Xiaoxiao and others.

The soul fire in the Skeleton King's eyes beat violently.

Why am I here?
what happened?
Wang Dong'er would not give Tang Dai time to ask the three classic philosophical questions, and directly blasted out the light of the Butterfly God with one hand.

He Caitou and the others reacted just as quickly and took action.

Xiao Xiao separated the Three Lives Soul-Calming Cauldron and surrounded Tang Dai in a pincer attack, and he gave a shocking blow as soon as he made a move.

He Caitou also attacked with the Binding Light that he had prepared long ago. The Binding Light is a seventh-level soul guide. As the name suggests, its binding power is extremely strong.

The Six-Ring Soul Emperor of the Tang Dynasty couldn't break free for the time being.

Although Tang Dai is huge in size, the Holy Spirit Sect now has only two combat forces, one is Yan Feng and the other is Tang Dai. Gu Yu is just an auxiliary system. If he controls Tang Dai, half of the combat power of the Holy Spirit Sect will be lost.

Even if it slightly expands the Shrek formation, it is worth it.

With Huo Yuhao's shared spiritual detection, the seven Shrek members could coordinate as one without any formation.

Tang Dai was directly controlled. On the other side, Xu Sanshi felt extremely cold all around as soon as he was transferred there. He subconsciously looked to his side and saw a huge bone dragon lurking there.

What the hell...

Looking at the huge dragon head of the bone dragon that turned towards him, the leaping soul fire gave Xu Sanshi an indescribable sense of oppression.

How could Xu Sanshi dare to be negligent? He immediately launched a Xuanming Zhen attack. It was hard to say for Yan Feng, but at least Gu Yu would be affected to some extent.

Afterwards, the fourth soul ring flickered again, and Yan Feng felt the soul fire in his pupils jump slightly, and the person in front of him turned into a golden figure.

Beibei, who had been well prepared, did not hesitate after arriving. The scarlet seventh soul ring was lit up for the first time in this competition.

Beside the bone dragon, an even larger gold-colored dragon appeared.

Long Wei directly suppressed the bone dragon.

As for Gu Yu, he was under the pressure of the two giant dragons and felt so suppressed that he couldn't breathe.

Beibei caught a glimpse of it and, with the intention of helping others, swung his dragon tail and pulled it away. Gu Yu's somewhat short and fat body slammed heavily on the soul power shield at the edge of the game.

When it fell to the ground, it bounced back a little, so at least all that fat on its body was not in vain.

Zheng Zhan went forward to check.

His chest cavity was severely sunken, and the broken sternum pierced deeply into the internal organs below. The golden thunder around him slowly dissipated, and along with it, Gu Yu's evil spirit.

Dead as hell, Zheng Zhan came to this conclusion as soon as he saw it.

The martial soul's true body, manifested by the hundred thousand year soul ring, was hit hard by the dragon's tail. He himself was only an auxiliary soul master with six souls, and was also mentioned to have attribute restraint.

Death from one blow is not surprising.

Zheng Zhan handed over the corpse with a soul power shield, at least it was a complete corpse.

The life demon took it and bowed to Zheng Zhan as a thank you.

Zheng Zhan had a fairly good impression of this Holy Son. Although he was an evil soul master, he was more courteous than most normal soul masters, truly a breath of fresh air among evil soul masters. Then, Zheng Zhan saw Ming Yao wave his hand, and a tree branch appeared. After swinging it, he directly smashed Gu Yu's corpse, and a cloud of blood mist dissipated in the wind.

The life demon had a calm expression, as if he was just casually swatting a bug away.

"Your teammates are all like this, so you should do the same, just to keep each other company."

On the competition stage, Zheng Zhan couldn't hear what the destiny demon said clearly, but the destiny demon didn't cover up and he could see his lip movements clearly.

Zheng Zhan felt that he had been blind before. What good impression did he have? An evil soul master was an evil soul master. How could he be viewed with normal eyes?

After the incident, the game continued.

Beibei transformed into a golden dragon, pressing down the bone dragon and beating it. Golden light filled the air, and golden thunder spread over the bone dragon's body. The soul fire in the bone dragon's pupils beat faster and faster.

In the Shrek formation, the righteous beating continues.

As a soul master with light attribute, Wang Dong'er took the lead by relying on the restraint of the attribute. The purification and evil-breaking power of the light attribute emitted bursts of white smoke from the Skeleton King.

Correspondingly, the soul fire in the Skeleton King's eyes grew dimmer.

Anyone could see that the Holy Spirit team, with only two members left, was already at an absolute disadvantage.

On the rostrum, Zhongli Wu had a grim expression on his face. These were the absolute elites of the younger generation of the Holy Spirit Church, and each of them had at least a title, but now there were only two left.

But having something left is better than nothing.

Zhongli Wu was about to send a message to the demon, but he saw an excited dragon roar suddenly coming from Beibei's mouth on the competition stage.

As if it was a signal, Beibei and the Shrek people in the main formation exploded at the same time.

Xiao Xiao's fifth soul ring lit up directly, and the Three Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldrons each spewed out a strong black light. As the black light shone, they combined with each other and turned into a black cover that firmly suppressed Tang Dai inside.

Xiao Xiao's fifth soul skill: Three Lives Soul Calming.

The powerful suppressive ability can directly shock the soul.

With just this one move, the Tang Dynasty was left powerless to fight back.

Xiao Xiao's Three Lives Soul-Calming Technique was released and then retracted immediately. It was not that he could not hold on, but under the Three Lives Soul-Calming Technique, not only could Xiao Xiao himself not move, but the black cover itself would also provide a certain degree of protection to the body of the suppressed person.

If Xiaoxiao continues to maintain this, it will affect the attacks of the others.

Xiao Xiao's goal was only to make the Tang Dynasty unable to resist. The moment San Sheng Zhenhun succeeded, this goal was achieved.

Originally, Huo Yuhao was the most suitable person to launch this attack, but Huo Yuhao had other things to do, so it had to be done by Xiao Xiao.

After Xiaoxiao finished, He Caitou immediately followed, while Wang Donger was gathering strength on the side.

On He Caitou's shoulder, the seventh-level piercing cannon has been mounted and started charging.

Zheng Zhan, whose attention was originally focused on Beibei, immediately came over when he saw the situation here and wanted to rescue Tang Dai.

No matter what, the competition rules still require the referees to save the contestants as much as possible. Even though Tang Dai is an evil soul master, Zheng Zhan, the chief referee, cannot ignore the rules.

He Caitou launched a piercing cannon at the Tang Dynasty, which had lost its resistance.

Zheng Zhan immediately stepped forward, raised his unbreakable shield and blocked the attack.

However, Zheng Zhan did not notice that after He Caitou fired that shot, Wang Donger raised her hand and pointed at Tang Dai with the momentum of the soul guide cannon.

A golden light sank into the soul fire in Tang Dai's pupils.

The extremely compressed power of light exploded inside, and the soul fire in Tang Dai's pupils was extinguished immediately.

Another person from the Holy Spirit Sect died.

Zheng Zhan suddenly realized it the moment Wang Donger made her move, but it was too late.

With the help of the Shrek team, Zheng Zhan successfully became the referee with the most casualties in this competition.

It's not over yet. Shrek's main camp and Beibei's camp broke out at the same time. If the main camp ends, the situation on the other side will not be too good either.

A ray of black light pierced through the soul power shield, reached out and grabbed a piece in the golden light, then retreated quickly and came to the side of the competition stage.

The golden light dissipated, and besides Bei Bei, Lin Yi's figure also appeared in it...

Time goes back to the moment when Xiaoxiao took action.

At the same time as Xiao Xiao made his move, Huo Yuhao, who seemed to be paddling throughout the whole process, also made his move. Using the simulated soul skill, Huo Yuhao directly used the second awakening of his silver-level martial soul.

After the last instinctive performance, Huo Yuhao has become familiar with it and is now able to perform it on his own. It is not difficult to control the second awakening of his martial soul. The difficult part is how to activate it. Once it is activated, controlling it becomes a natural thing.

The silver vertical pupil merged with Huo Yuhao, and a soul shock that condensed 60% of Huo Yuhao's mental power blasted towards Yan Feng.

It’s not that there can’t be more, but with Huo Yuhao’s current physical condition, this is the upper limit of his attack.

The rest of his mental energy was used by Huo Yuhao to conceal the fluctuations.

Not only the fluctuations from the previous soul shock, but also the fluctuations from the fight between Beibei and Yanfeng.

Under Bei Bei's suppression, Yan Feng absorbed all the power of Huo Yuhao's soul attack. Bei Bei then slapped the bone dragon with several claws, and golden light rose up.

It's not Dragon Emperor's Evil Break, nor is it Dragon Emperor's Realm Shock. Without charging up the power, even Beibei under the spirit's true body cannot instantly perform these two moves.

Then, a black light broke through the soul power shield and grabbed Yan Feng, who had already exited his martial soul body and was bleeding from all seven orifices and unconscious.

This black light was naturally the life demon, which tore open the soul power shield with extreme death and rescued Yan Feng.

The moment the Fate Demon attacked, Lin Yi also appeared and directly protected Beibei.

So far, the game is over.

Zheng Zhan's face looked grim. As a referee, it was okay if he failed to save the contestant who had lost the ability to resist. They had all signed a life and death agreement, so the referee just had to do his best.

But this fate demon directly intervened in the game and trampled on the face of the referee.

As for Lin Yi, he only intervened after the Fate Demon intervened. Obviously, there was a reason for this. Although Zheng Zhan was a little dissatisfied, compared with the Fate Demon, this dissatisfaction was nothing.

"Holy Spirit Sect, why are you openly interfering in the competition?!"

Zheng Zhan burst out with momentum and pressed towards the fate demon.

Behind the life demon, Zhang Peng appeared quietly, glanced at Zheng Zhan, and directly dispelled his aura.

Zheng Zhan's face was filled with horror, and his momentum dropped suddenly.

The Fate Demon seemed oblivious. "Sorry, Chief Referee, I just don't want all of our elite disciples to perish in a single match..."

Before he could finish his words, the life demon's expression suddenly changed, and he shook his hand and threw Yan Feng away.

Suddenly, a ball of golden light exploded from Yan Feng's chest, and violent golden thunder instantly spread all over Yan Feng's body. It was obvious that he was dead.

The life demon's eyes focused, and the aura around him suddenly burst out. The Immortal Tree of Life and Death appeared behind the life demon, and seven soul rings appeared: one yellow, two purple, two black, one gray, and one red.

Almost instantly, he erupted with a momentum that was not weaker than that of a Titled Douluo. Even Zheng Zhan from before seemed to be much weaker than the momentum of the Fate Demon at this moment.

Behind the Fate Demon, a look of astonishment flashed in Zhang Peng's eyes. After all, when the competition came, the Fate Demon was always at a disadvantage in front of Lin Yi. Who would have thought that the Fate Demon could burst out with such momentum.

Zheng Zhan's expression also changed.

Lin Yi flashed with Beibei, protecting him and everyone else from Shrek behind him.

"Fate Demon Saint, do you want to fight me again?"

Just as Lin Yi finished speaking, a hand suddenly slapped the fate demon's shoulder.

On the rostrum, the seat to the left behind Xu Tianran was empty.

"Enough."

A dull voice sounded.

The life demon's body shook, and then he slowly restrained his aura.

Behind him, Zhang Peng bowed and said, "Greetings, Master."

Zhongli Wu said "hmm", patted the life demon's shoulder again, and said nothing more.

The familiar smile reappeared on the life demon's face and he glanced at Beibei.

"As expected of the bloodline of Dragon God Douluo, what a great method."

Of course Beibei knew the true identity of the Life Demon. Hearing this, he felt a little strange in his heart, but he said calmly, "Son of the Life Demon, you are too kind. I am just following the orders of the Pavilion Master."

That’s right, at the beginning of the game, Lin Yi had already told Beibei and others that in this battle, they not only had to win, but also had to completely destroy the Holy Spirit Church team.

Maybe it has nothing to do with the overall situation, but it is good to weaken the Holy Spirit Church a little bit. It is also a training for Beibei and others.

After this competition, Beibei has indeed grown a lot.

After listening to Bei Bei's words, the life demon turned his gaze to Lin Yi again.

"It turns out that it was the work of Pavilion Master Lin."

Lin Yi just smiled faintly and said nothing.

The fate demon exhaled.

He first said to Zheng Zhan: "I am really sorry, Mr. Referee, I was in a hurry at the moment, please forgive me."

After he finished speaking, without waiting for Zheng Zhan to speak, he turned to Lin Yi and said, "Ming Yao affected the competition in a hurry. Please forgive me, Pavilion Master Lin. As an apology, I would like to give you the eighth-level soul guide device awarded as the runner-up of the Holy Spirit Sect as an apology."

"Okay, okay."

He exchanged a few polite words but did not refuse the eighth-level soul guide at all.

Although he heard the Fate Demon's apology, Zheng Zhan's face became even uglier. After all, the contrast between before and after was too obvious.

After Zhongli Wu stopped the fate demon, he left and returned to the podium.

After the Fate Demon finished speaking, he nodded at Lin Yi and left.

Zhang Peng left, taking Yan Feng's body with him.

Zheng Zhan calmed down and announced, "The final champion of this competition is Shrek Academy!"

There wasn't much cheering. Although the battle was exciting, Shrek Academy and the Sun-Moon Empire were still in a state of hostility.

Beibei and others didn't care. It was better to be low-key when winning the championship in someone else's home court. In case there were any fools, even if there were no serious consequences, it would be uncomfortable to be disgusted by them.

After the competition, the Sun-Moon Empire did not delay for too long and soon held an award ceremony.

One ninth-level soul guide device and one eighth-level soul guide device.

A championship reward and an apology.

They are all of above-average quality. They didn't use inferior goods to fool Shrek. Sun and Moon did a good job in this regard.

At this point, the Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition was completely over. Shrek and his party did not delay and decided to leave immediately.

Xu Jiujiu and his group also came forward, first congratulating Shrek on winning the championship, and then asking to go with him.

Just as Xu Jiujiu expected, Lin Yi did not refuse.

So, Shrek Academy, Tianhun, and Xingluo left together...
