Douluo: The Peerless King Dong'er's Restarted Life

Chapter 299 Uppercut, Devastating the World! Ye Guyi Appears (4,600 words)

Before the competition even reached the semi-finals, a truly shocking piece of gossip emerged.

Most importantly, Wang Dong'er's sudden attack forced the royal family and the competition organizing committee to issue a statement clarifying that she had no connection with evil spirit masters and reassuring the public.

The public is the easiest to fool, but also the hardest to fool.

Regardless, this incident has made the public scrutinize the royal family.

Even the public themselves didn't realize this.

However, after the Hall of Light wiped out all five members of the Holy Spirit Sect, and the rest of the Holy Spirit Sect members also disappeared, this year's Soul Battle Tournament fell into a strange atmosphere.

Given the current strength of the Hall of Light, are there really any teams that can compete with them?

With two Soul Saints, can any other participating team do that?
Regardless, the teams that emerged from the round-robin tournament to enter the top eight have been determined, with the first and second place teams ranked based on their number of wins and point differential.

Among the four groups, the teams that advanced as the first place were the Hall of Light, the Sword Sect, the Snow Demon Sect, and the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

The teams that advanced as the second-placed teams were Shrek Academy, Xin Hai Zong, Xing Luo Royal Academy, and Tian Long Men.

The draw for the quarterfinals will take place in a few days. Due to damage to the competition table, the teams that have advanced to the quarterfinals have been given a longer rest period in order to repair it.

However, for Wang Dong'er, the protagonist of the incident, her nightlife was just beginning!
The Soul Fighting Tournament is all set up, but the Soul Master Tournament is still ongoing.

The Soul Master Competition is now nearing its end, and we are currently in the fourth round.

Since the Soul Fighting Tournament could not be held for several consecutive days, the Soul Master Tournament became even more popular.

The rules for this fourth round of the competition are that each participant must create a soul tool within five hours, with no limit on the number.

The next morning, the Soul Guidance Competition began. Participants were not allowed to use any Soul Guidance devices other than those they had made in the Soul Guidance Device Making Competition. However, the restrictions were also reduced. This time, the use of Martial Souls and Soul Skills was not restricted as much as in the third round of the competition.

Meanwhile, only three winners will be able to emerge victorious in this competition and participate in the final showdown between the three major underground forces.

Huo Yuhao led his men toward the Qingse Hotel, while Wang Dong'er, Xiao Xiao, and Wang Qiu'er went to the Pingfan Hotel.

By this round of the competition, only six people remained.

The competition stage, originally used by Soul Masters to create Soul Tools, has become more spacious due to the reduced number of participants, and has been divided into three larger areas.

The arena for the Soul Guidance Competition has also been transformed into a circular arena.

For this final match within the Ordinary Alliance, the Alliance specially invited a female host.

The host was dressed in an extremely revealing outfit, and every move she made was seductive.

Although all the Soul Masters participating in the competition were female, the audience watching the competition was not all female. This host was obviously sent by the Ordinary Alliance to stir up the emotions of these viewers.

After all, the entertainment industry is part of the Ordinary Alliance's business.

"Distinguished masters and honored guests, good evening. I am Hu Ling, the emcee for tonight's Soul Master Competition. I will be providing commentary for tonight's competition."

"First of all, we, the Ordinary Alliance, would like to clarify that we have never inquired about the level or abilities of the six esteemed Soul Masters who will be participating in the final round today. The following information and analysis are all based on their performance in the previous matches."

"Now, please welcome our first guest, Soul Master No. 33, to the stage."

As Hu Ling's voice faded, Wang Dong'er stepped onto the competition stage. Disguised, she looked like an ordinary young girl.

"This Soul Master No. 33 defeated several powerful opponents to enter the top six. The Soul Tool he created in the competition was also at the level of a Level 5 Soul Tool. Based on his performance in the competition, his Soul Master strength is estimated to be quite impressive. We will tentatively assess him as a Level 5 Soul Master who is good at making close-range Soul Tools."

"The second one, Soul Master No. 22, seems to follow the same path as Soul Master No. 33. They are both powerful Soul Masters and skilled at creating close-range Soul Tools. If the two Soul Masters are drawn together in the next lottery, we might be able to feast our eyes on them."

Upon hearing Hu Ling's introduction of contestant number 22, Wang Dong'er turned her head to look at number 22, who was stepping onto the competition stage.

She wore a veil, concealing her true appearance, but her eyes, which were visible, were incredibly bright and lively.

This must be Ye Guyi, Wang Dong'er thought.

The Soul Master is powerful and also creates close-range Soul Guidance Devices, which matches Ye Guyi's image very well.

Next, Hu Ling introduced several other Soul Masters, who were also estimated to be Level 5 Soul Masters based on their performance in previous competitions.

After introducing the six participating Soul Masters, the lottery was held.

To the audience's dismay, Wang Dong'er and number 22 did not meet. Wang Dong'er competed in the first zone against number 41.

Number 22's opponent is number 50, and they will compete in the second section.

"Alright, the draw is over. Next, you will have 15 minutes to place your bets. The competition will officially begin in 15 minutes."

Because betting was not allowed in the Soul Fighting Tournament, the audience had been waiting for a long time. Now that the tournament had been postponed due to repairs to the arena, the Soul Master Tournament was the perfect time to open betting. The newly arrived audience members began placing their bets, hoping to win big tonight.

As time went by, the Soul Tool Making Competition began. Soundproof shields rose from all sides, and the six Soul Tool Masters immediately began making Soul Tools.

Meanwhile, the female emcee was observing the six soul masters' creations from a high vantage point using a telescopic soul tool, while simultaneously taking out a megaphone soul tool to begin her explanation.

The first soul tool Wang Dong'er made this time was still a close-body soul tool.

Her martial soul is too distinctive. Whether it is the most beautiful martial soul on the continent, the Goddess of Light Butterfly, or the octagonal Xuanbing Crystal transformed from the Clear Sky Hammer, as soon as it is released, it can be immediately associated with her in the Soul Fighting Tournament.

If Huo Yuhao were here, he could use his simulation to block it, but unfortunately, Huo Yuhao is competing with the Xi Shui Alliance and is unable to spare the time.

However, since it's just dealing with an ordinary Soul Master, there's no need to use a Martial Soul right now.

Five hours is not a short time. Many people entered and left the audience one after another. When it got late at night, the female emcee Hu Ling stopped her commentary.

Most of the audience had already settled down to rest. Five hours later, the soundproof barrier was lowered, and Hu Ling announced, "The competition time is up. All participating Soul Masters, please stop. Now, the three referees will inspect the Soul Tools you have made."

The audience was also awakened by Hu Ling's voice and looked towards the competition stage.

In a VIP room, a woman in a bright red dress sat languidly on the sofa. Her chestnut hair was styled into a bun, and the tight red dress revealed her alluring figure, but her face was filled with a sense of holiness.

"Alliance Leader Shangguan, which three Soul Masters do you favor?" A deep voice rang out from another sofa.

The woman in the red dress was Shangguan Wei'er, the leader of the Ordinary Alliance.

Shangguan Wei'er chuckled sweetly, "Hehe, well... I'm more optimistic about number 33, number 22, and number 66." "Oh?" the voice asked again, "Number 22 was someone you planted from outside, and number 66 is originally from the Ordinary Alliance. Number 33's opponent, number 41, isn't someone trained by the Ordinary Alliance, but neither is number 33. So why did you choose number 33 on her side?"

“A woman’s intuition.” Shangguan Wei’er chuckled. “I believe she will surprise me… I happened to see her during her last competition.”

"Hehe, it seems that this time we will definitely be able to curb the arrogance of the Xishui Alliance?"

Shangguan Wei'er said, "The Xi Shui Alliance thinks they can control the underground forces, but they don't know that I have already unleashed my trump card against them. As for this number thirty-three... he should be no worse than number twenty-two."

The deep voice remained silent, and the VIP room fell silent.

On the competition stage, after the judges briefly observed the soul tools made by the six soul masters, the chief judge took the megaphone soul tool handed to him by the emcee Hu Ling and announced the number of soul tools made by each person. Then he looked at the six people and said, "The soul tool making process is over. Now I will conduct the routine questioning."

"Regardless of the grade of the soul tool you create, it must be tested in actual combat to demonstrate its power. Now, if anyone feels that their soul tool is insufficient to fight against their opponent, they may withdraw."

"Otherwise, if the competition begins, you will be responsible for all casualties."

No one chose to withdraw from the competition.

For Soul Masters, the chances of dying in such a competition are not high, so why not gamble on those rewards?
While the rewards from the Pingfan Alliance's matches aren't as generous as those from the Xishui Alliance, they're still quite substantial.

"Since no one has withdrawn from the competition, let's start with number 33 and number 41."

The soul tools created by Number 41 include several types of long-range soul tools and a soul shield.

The close-range soul tools that Wang Dong'er made this time were a pair of golden arm armors, and the rest were simple protective equipment such as a breastplate and a waist guard. At first glance, there were no long-range soul tools.

As Wang Dong'er donned the golden arm armor on her forearms and put on her other protective soul tools, the audience who had bet on her victory held their breath.

Close-range Soul Masters don't have much of an advantage over ranged Soul Masters. And because this arena is located in a hall, it's much smaller than the arena used in the Soul Battle Tournament. Ranged attacks can hit the opponent almost instantly. Will number 33 win?
The three referees were already in place. The chief referee, seeing Wang Dong'er and number forty-one standing still, shouted, "The Soul Guidance Competition begins!"

Number 41 released his martial soul almost instantly, and five soul rings appeared: two yellow and three purple.

Wang Dong'er, however, showed no intention of releasing her martial spirit, drawing the attention of many.

The emcee, Hu Ling, immediately began her commentary: "Look everyone, the choice made by contestant number 33 against contestant number 41 is beyond our expectations. She didn't release her martial soul! This means that she will only use the soul tool she made herself to fight against her opponent!"

"Number 41's soul tools are all long-range soul tools. We all know that for female soul masters, it takes more effort to use long-range soul tools. Can she use the advantage of long-range soul tools to defeat Number 33?"

"Good! Number 41 used her soul skill first, and it looks like it's a soul power amplification skill! She fired!"

On the competition stage, number 41 was enraged by Wang Dong'er's choice not to release her martial soul. He immediately took out the strongest soul guide cannon he had just made and fired it in Wang Dong'er's direction.

As one of the few female Soul Masters who chose the Heavy Artillery style, she has put in a lot of effort in using and practicing this style. She is confident that Wang Dong'er cannot dodge this cannon by relying solely on her soul power and physical strength!
Dare to act all high and mighty in front of her?

However, when the smoke cleared, Number Forty-One was astonished to find that Wang Dong'er had no wounds at all, and her clothes were not even torn.

The pair of golden arm armors on her arms were now emitting a faint glow, and when Wang Dong'er put them together, they formed a shield.

"Could it be a level six soul tool?" Number Forty-One wondered to himself, but his hands didn't stop moving as he fired another shot.

However, the golden arm armor on Wang Dong'er's arms trembled slightly, a sliding cover opened, and then Wang Dong'er threw out the two rows of bullet chains that had been hanging on her thigh leg rings. With a stretch of her arms, the bullet chains automatically entered the arm armor, and the sliding cover quickly closed.

The smooth operation and the unprecedented close-range soul tool form impressed the other soul masters.

Wang Dong'er threw punches left and right, and the arm armor actually shot out bullets like the soul guidance rays in a long-range soul guidance device, detonating the soul guidance shells of number 41 in mid-air. Some bullets even shot directly at number 41.

"Hmph..." Wang Dong'er's lips curled up slightly, "Taste the power of the original Doomsday Fist!"

boom!
With a heavy stomp of her foot, Wang Dong'er's figure vanished instantly. Number 41, who had just blocked the bullets, realized that Wang Dong'er was no longer there. His eyes darted around, trying to find the missing Wang Dong'er.

"Who is the little sister targeting?" A voice suddenly came from the side. Number Forty-One was startled and quickly turned around.

"Uppercut!"

Bang!
A force came from below and hit her chin directly.

If I hadn't subconsciously activated my soul shield to hold it off, that punch would have been more than just sending her flying.

Is Number Thirty-Three still human?

Even someone who uses heavy artillery and soul tools doesn't have that kind of power!
"Bang!" Wang Dong'er slammed Number 41, who was protected by the soul guide shield, to the ground with a punch, and the soul guide shield was full of cracks.

She almost shattered a level-five soul-guided shield with her physical strength? Is she a soul beast?
Invincible!

The moment that thought crossed Number Forty-One's mind, he heard Wang Dong'er shout from mid-air: "Destroy the heavens and the earth!"

Buho!

Number 41 immediately activated his soul-guided propulsion device, rapidly retreating while shouting, "I surrender!"

The next moment, the golden flames plummeted from mid-air, avoiding the retreating Number 41, and landed with a deafening roar, exploding into a cloud of dust.

As the smoke cleared, a large crater appeared before everyone's eyes—it was the result of Wang Dong'er's punch.

Almost everyone's eyebrows twitched.

This is too scary...

Number 41 swallowed hard and said in a trembling voice, "Thank you for showing mercy."

The emcee, Hu Ling, even forgot to give a commentary, looking at everything before her and not knowing what to say.

The competition ended quickly, but not only was Wang Dong'er's own strength a mystery, but the golden arm armor she made also became a hot commodity in the eyes of various soul masters. If it weren't for the fact that they were in the middle of a competition, they would have already come up to ask her if she was willing to sell this soul tool.

Next up are the matches between number 22 and number 50.

Number Twenty-Two used a longsword as her soul tool. With the release of her martial soul, six perfectly matched soul rings appeared, revealing her to be a Soul Emperor. Behind her, pure white wings unfurled, radiating endless light and a sacred aura.

Clearly, this was Ye Guyi, the one Wang Dong'er was looking for who possessed the Holy Angel Martial Soul.

As expected, although Ye Guyi was not as eye-catching as Wang Dong'er, she still won easily.
