Douluo: What the hell is the academic master development system?

Chapter 234 I'm here to compete, not to die!
"Referee, it's time to begin."

Chen Ping chuckled and reminded the referee to put his hand down quickly, seemingly unconcerned about his upcoming one-against-seven challenge.

The owner of this not-so-mature voice had become the most eye-catching focus of the entire venue at this moment.

The referee suddenly realized what was happening, his raised right hand instantly falling down as he shouted, "The match begins!"

With the referee's loud shout, the seven students from Tianling Advanced Soul Master Academy released their martial souls almost simultaneously.

To be honest, these seven people are not weak at all.

The halo, which is mainly yellow and purple, exudes a dazzling brilliance.

Of the seven, five were at the fourth level, and only two were at the third level. The number of Soul Masters was one more than the reserve team.

Ten thousand years ago, this would have been a superior force to the Four Elements Academy, and on paper, it would have been a strong contender for the top four in the Soul Master Tournament.

If these people weren't truly gifted in cultivation, and if they didn't all look down on Shrek Academy and refuse to enroll, then it can only mean one thing.

These people, like Chen Ping, are drug users. They all relied on drugs to stimulate their talents, which is why they have reached their current level of cultivation.

However, at this time, no one would pay attention to the situation at Tianling Advanced Soul Master Academy.

Almost all the spectators' eyes were focused on Shrek Academy, or more precisely, on Chen Ping, who was already striding forward.

Even now, Chen Ping still shows no intention of releasing his spirit rings or summoning his martial soul. He simply walks step by step toward the group from the Heavenly Spirit Advanced Soul Master Academy.

This made everyone at Tianling Academy dare not make any unnecessary moves.

Since they had all released their martial spirits, they should have swarmed in and crushed Chen Ping first before considering other situations.

But they all hesitated as they watched Chen Ping walk step by step across the halfway point and then stand in the very center of the field.

"One punch per person. Come up and take the punch. Don't use your soul skills yet, so the referee can't protect you."

"I'll give you a chance. If any one of you can withstand one punch from me, I'll step down."

Chen Ping smiled and said two sentences, then raised his fist again.

Come up here and take my punch!
Let's hold off on using our soul skills for now, lest the referee can't protect you!
Chen Ping's extremely arrogant statement caused everyone present to gasp in surprise.

Especially the second half of the sentence, Chen Ping meant that if he activated his soul skill and threw a punch, could he break through the defense of the referee who was at the starting level of Soul Saint?
Arrogant, extremely arrogant! He's only a twelve or thirteen-year-old kid, how dare he say such crazy things!
However, Chen Ping did not give the people from Tianling Academy time to think.

His fist clenched tighter and tighter, and terrifying ripples emanated from his right fist.

Although no one could feel the ripples of soul power, everyone could sense the power contained in Chen Ping's punch, which was constantly increasing.

Through years of physical training, coupled with the nourishment of various enhancement potions and ingredients from the soul beasts of the Star Dou Forest, Chen Ping's body possesses a vigorous blood energy that even ordinary Soul Kings do not have.

At this moment, this surging blood energy continuously poured into Chen Ping's right arm, causing his right arm to visibly thicken by more than one ring.

Thick muscles twitched beneath Chen Ping's skin, like serpents wriggling across his arms.

Thick, irregular, varicose veins jutted out, like some kind of blue, magical tattoo on Chen Ping's arm.

The next moment, the convergence of this power finally reached its peak.

"Drink it!"

Chen Ping let out a low shout, and then suddenly slammed his raised right fist down onto the ground of the Soul Fighting Arena!

Chen Ping's punch was so fast, like a streak of light, like chasing a star, that it landed heavily in the blink of an eye!

"boom!!!"

A terrifying explosion, like a thunderclap from a clear sky, erupted, sending billowing clouds of dust flying. An unbelievable scene unfolded: Chen Ping's punch caused the entire granite fighting arena, spanning a hundred meters in length and width, to tremble.

Even the seven students from Tianling Academy in the distance were suddenly shaken and almost lost their balance and fell to the ground!

As the smoke and dust slowly dissipated, Chen Ping's aloof figure, hands in his pockets, reappeared in everyone's sight.

Beneath Chen Ping's feet, a terrifying, dense crack, resembling a giant spider web, burst open, nearly twenty meters wide!
The power of one punch is so terrifying!
"Holy crap!"

On the distant Soul Battle Stage, in the rest area of ​​the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, Xiao Hongchen and Ma Rulong held a miniature soul power fluctuation detector and watched helplessly as Chen Ping threw a punch.

In an instant, the terrifying destructive effect, as if a fixed-mounted cannonball had been detonated on the fighting arena, was instantly exposed before them, causing them to scream like little girls.

What the hell are we even doing?!

This guy didn't even summon his martial soul or release his soul rings. Without using any soul power, his punch had the same destructive power as a pre-loaded artillery shell!

In just a moment, Ma Rulong and Xiao Hongchen, having grasped the meaning behind it, went mad.

This is nothing more than a 100,000-year-old soul beast in human skin, and what's more, it's a Titan Giant Ape in human skin!
Xiao Hongchen felt that he was incredibly brave for not having urinated yet.

Given the power of Chen Ping's punch just now, if he activated his martial soul and unleashed a soul skill, he could probably shatter a person instantly, splattering the entire arena with the shards.

No wonder Chen Ping said he wouldn't use soul skills.

It's not that Chen Ping is arrogant; he's genuinely worried that after punching through the referee's defense, he might then punch the opponent the referee is protecting and blow them up!
I'm done playing!
I'm here to compete, not to die!
This was the consensus among everyone at Tianling Academy after Chen Ping delivered his punch.

At this moment, everyone from Tianling Academy was almost in tears, with tears welling up in their eyes.

They're not stupid; they could sense whether Chen Ping activated his martial spirit or used his soul power.

Chen Ping's punch just now was so powerful it seemed to have shattered the entire Soul Arena. Even a five-ring Soul King opening their fifth Soul Skill might not have been able to achieve that level of destructive force.

This is the effect achieved by using brute force when the opponent is not serious. What if the opponent gets serious?

"Time's almost up, who wants to take my punch first?"

Just then, Chen Ping, with his hands in his pockets, revealed a sunny and cheerful smile and walked step by step toward the seven people from Tianling Academy.

"I'm forfeiting! I'm not playing anymore! Oh my god! Waaaaaah!"

Soon, the Soul Master with the lowest cultivation level in Tianling Academy, who was already extremely tense and was on the verge of a mental breakdown due to the visual stimulation, completely collapsed. He was so frightened that he scrambled off the Soul Arena crying.

The reaction of this Soul Master Academy student was like a domino effect, pushing the emotions of the other six people to the brink of collapse.

"Oh crap, don't leave me! I'm not playing anymore! Ahhh, oh crap!"

"Don't come any closer! I can't take it! Referee! Where's the referee?!"

This is someone in relatively good condition who can take care of themselves and knows to call for the referee while running away.

Several students from Tianling Academy were so frightened by Chen Ping's approach that they fainted, convulsing and clearly unconscious.

Shrek Academy's formidable power over the past ten thousand years, coupled with Chen Ping's increasingly outrageous deeds in the rumors yesterday, and Chen Ping's earthquake-wave punch delivered purely by his physical body, completely shattered the psychological defenses of the students at Tianling Academy.

That's normal too.

If Chen Ping had gone to fight someone in the ring in his previous life and found out that his opponent was actually a T800, and one punch from him shook the entire ring, Chen Ping would have had to tumble and scramble off the ring.

Screw you, this battle is going to go on forever.
