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

Chapter 598 Stop teasing me, Tianmeng is laughing (10,000 words per day)

Thinking of this, Xiao Hongchen squeezed out a wisp of soul power, took out a gauntlet from his storage ring, and put it on his right hand.

This is Xiao Hongchen's only melee soul tool, a level seven melee soul tool—the Flame Demon Gauntlets.

For a Soul Master like him, there is almost never a moment when he needs to engage in close combat.

His enemies would either be buried under his firepower or be overwhelmed by his artillery fire and killed. There shouldn't be an environment where he could use a melee soul tool.

However, because the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy's level exams generally require well-rounded development, he specifically focused on the crafting of close-combat soul tools, creating the simplest and most basic energy-storing close-combat soul tool.

Such melee soul tools do not rely on the soul master to infuse soul power. They only require a small amount of guidance to directly unleash the power previously stored in the melee soul tool. Although this can guarantee the lower limit of damage, the upper limit of attack power is very poor because the stored energy attack does not receive amplification.

However, at this moment, his soul power was completely depleted, and what he needed most was a close-combat soul tool that could unleash powerful attacks without requiring soul power!
These are gauntlets that can cover the user's entire forearm. The gauntlets covering the forearm boldly use the leather of a soul beast instead of rare metals. The back of the gauntlet is engraved with the head of the soul beast Lava Lord, which looks quite ferocious.

The next moment, Xiao Hongchen clenched his right fist, and a trace of soul power was injected into the gauntlet. Three irregular red high-energy soul power crystals shot out from the tip of the gauntlet, like the three sharp fangs of the lava lord.

These three high-energy soul power crystals are where the Flame Demon Gauntlets store their energy. When you punch and strike an enemy, the three crystals will explode simultaneously, making it most suitable for fire-attribute offensive soul masters.

At the same time, this gauntlet also uses wrist joint technology with soul power rheology damper to ensure that even if the user of the gauntlet uses leather as a cover for the arms, the wrist will not be broken by the strong explosive force.

"It's all over."

The next moment, Xiao Hongchen swung his right fist down heavily, and it seemed as if he could already see Huo Yuhao being blasted away by his punch.

But immediately afterward, his right fist, which he was about to swing down, was restrained by an indescribably strong force. This force was so great that his right fist could not advance an inch further, let alone explode the three high-energy soul crystals in front of Huo Yuhao's chest.

Did the referee intervene?

This was Xiao Hongchen's subconscious thought, but then he saw what exactly was that thing that was clamping his right fist—a giant claw covered in frost.

Xiao Hongchen subconsciously shifted his gaze to the side. Huo Yuhao's hair, which had become dry and yellowish-white, was visibly turning black again, and his previously gaunt face had regained its vitality.

Are aging rays powerful? Of course they are.

If it were a Soul King, even someone like Wu Feng who had previously dominated the battlefield, or even a Six-Ring Soul Emperor like He Cai Tou, they would all be forced to kneel on the ground after taking such an aging ray.

But this thing was useless to Huo Yuhao and Chen Ping, who was sitting calmly in the rest area and didn't seem to care about Huo Yuhao at all.

After all, one of these two people wields a life-carving knife, while the other carries the million-year-old soul beast, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, and the four-hundred-thousand-year-old ferocious beast, the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion. How could they lack vitality?
Stop making your brother Tianmeng laugh.

As the saying goes, even a starved camel is bigger than a horse. Although the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was used as a power bank by the ferocious beasts of the Star Dou Forest for ten thousand years, it still had 99% of its life force gone. Doesn't that mean it still had enough for another ten thousand years?
The aging ray, which struggles even against a hundred-year-old soul beast, would be a miracle if it were to work against Huo Yuhao, who has a million-year-old soul beast, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, replenishing his energy.

Therefore, just as Xiao Hongchen was fantasizing that everything had settled down and that he had at least not committed the heaven-defying record of a Soul Saint being overthrown by a Soul King, Huo Yuhao grabbed Xiao Hongchen's wrist and then flung him away, sending him flying into the Soul Guidance Shield, where he immediately lost consciousness.

"He lost, referee, announce the result."

Huo Yuhao waved his hand, a hint of relief in his heart.

It was only thanks to Chen Ping giving him two level-eight defensive soul tools that he was able to use them against Xiao Hongchen. Otherwise, it would have been extremely difficult for a level-50 Soul King like him to deal with a level-7 Soul Master who was far stronger than an ordinary Soul Saint!

He only knows that following Brother Chen means there's always meat to be eaten!
Zheng Zhan quickly checked Xiao Hongchen, who was breathing heavily but not much, and his face was deathly pale. Only after confirming that no one was dead did he breathe a sigh of relief.

He could tell that Xiao Hongchen was in extremely bad shape. His soul power was completely depleted, and after being tormented like this, if the results of the competition were not announced soon, his life would be in danger.

"Shrek Academy wins the fourth individual match!"

Jing Hongchen rushed onto the stage, took Xiao Hongchen to treat him, and announced that the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy team had conceded defeat in the battle.

No matter what, this is his own grandson.

Xiao Hongchen was severely injured due to overexertion of his soul power, while Meng Hongchen and Wu Feng also suffered serious depletion of their soul power after exchanging blows.

With only a handful of remaining members from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, there's absolutely no chance of winning a team battle. It's better not to humiliate themselves; at least they can preserve their strength and hide some trump cards for later matches.

The audience from the Sun Moon Empire was in low spirits. In contrast, the audience from Douluo Three Kingdoms erupted in cheers that shook the heavens.

They celebrated Shrek Academy's victory, once again defeating the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy team against all odds, becoming the first team to advance to the round-robin stage.

The fact that a level 50 Soul King defeated the first seven-ring Soul Saint in the history of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Tournament drove all the spectators into a frenzy.

"Brother Chen, how did I do this time? Did I deserve the two pieces of equipment you gave me?"

Huo Yuhao had already jumped off the Soul Battle Platform, grinning and giving Chen Ping a high five, practically snot bubbles coming out of his nose from laughing so hard.

"Great, that's amazing! You took down a Soul Saint in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Tournament one-on-one. You're going to go down in history this time. I never even had that chance."

Chen Ping clapped his hands and applauded Huo Yuhao.

With his five-ring body defeating a seven-ring Soul Saint, coupled with Wu Feng's previous performance of instantly killing a fellow evil Soul Master at the same level with only five rings, the reputation of the Thousand-Refined Battle Armor has now been fully established.

"Hehe, Brother Chen, you have so many records from the last competition, it won't hurt to give me a few."

Huo Yuhao scratched his head a little embarrassedly. Now that you mention it, he really did achieve an amazing record!

The Shrek group didn't mute their conversation, so the students nearby twitched at the corners of their mouths when they heard what they were saying.

It's a pity that I didn't get the first kill record of defeating a seven-ring Soul Saint one-on-one with a five-ring Soul King. Does that mean you could do it too?

Holy crap, you Shrek Academy fans, do you have to go this far?

There are supposedly several Soul Kings in the team, but in reality, there are at least two monsters who can shatter Soul Saints.

Is this even reasonable? We could have had one of these monstrous Soul Kings; we're not greedy at all!
