Douluo: Lord of Arms

Chapter 204 Ye Xinglan VS Na'er
After Wu Siduo returned to her room, Lin Xingyu comforted her.
“You’ve done a great job. He’s just a bit older. When you reach his age, you’ll have a good chance of beating Long Yue, not just now, but even a few years from now.”

Wu Siduo sat down on the sofa near Lin Xingyu and said with some surprise, "Isn't that unlikely? I'm still somewhat confident that we can beat Longyue a few years from now, but beating Longyue a few years from now is a bit outrageous, isn't it?"

After speaking, she leaned back against the sofa in a rather delicate manner, and the usually heroic Wu Siduo suddenly had a kind of gentle beauty.

In Wu Siduo's view, Long Yue's talent goes without saying, and it's impossible for him to improve on his own while he's stagnating.

“We had suspected before that Long Yue’s martial soul must have been inherited through some kind of later-life inheritance. I don’t know if you noticed, but Long Yue’s condition was very strange just now,” Lin Xingyu said directly.

Hearing Lin Xingyu say this, everyone looked over in confusion.

Seeing that no one understood, Lin Xingyu thought for a moment and said, "Do you guys still remember Yang Nianxia?"

"Naturally remember."

Wu Siduo said that she naturally remembered Yang Nianxia, ​​who enrolled in the same year as her, very clearly.

"Yang Nianxia's martial soul is the Dark Gold Bear. His ancestors included a soul master whose martial soul was the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, but it was an evolved form. However, his descendants' martial soul is still the Dark Gold Bear."

"In the end, it still comes down to the same problem: humans cannot bear overly powerful martial spirits. Apart from Long Yue, I have never heard of any other human who can possess the Dragon King martial spirit."

"His martial spirit clearly received external power."

“But external forces are not so easy to obtain; there are many hidden dangers involved.”

"It's alright before Long Yue becomes a Soul Saint, but after becoming a Soul Saint, it's all about power controlling him, and it's hard to say how much improvement he can get."

"In history, there were also Limit Douluo who obtained external opportunities, and were eventually tortured to death before they were finally freed."

"Indeed," Tang Wulin said with deep feeling.

"you have heard?"

Yuan Enhui asked with some curiosity.

She was also tormented by external forces, and it was quite dangerous for her until she found a solution.

"It just feels very reasonable," Tang Wulin said, rubbing his nose.

Gu Yue and Na'er looked at Tang Wulin with some confusion.

In an instant, Wu Siduo's previous frustration vanished, and she regained a third of her energy.

"Next time, I'm going to pin him to the ground and beat him!"

Seeing his number two fangirl regain her energy, Lin Xingyu nodded secretly.

Being a team leader isn't easy; you also have to take care of the mental health of your subordinates.

However, there was one thing Lin Xingyu didn't mention earlier: Long Yue had only just begun to use the power belonging to the Mountain Dragon King.

Of course, there's no need to say more, so as not to discourage my number two little fangirl.

In the ensuing battles, both Yuanen Yehui and Tang Wulin won quite smoothly.

Yuan Enhui's current strength is only slightly inferior to a few exceptional beings.

Tang Wulin activated his bloodline power, transforming Hua Lantang's Dragon Wolf Martial Soul into a Dragon Dog. Combined with his own Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul, he easily annihilated his opponent.

"It's your turn, you two. You decide who wins and who loses," Lin Xingyu said when it was finally time for the civil war.

Na'er said with a smile, "Senior Xinglan, please!"

Ye Xinglan returned the greeting to Na'er, who always seemed quite cheerful.

"The next match is between Na'er and Ye Xinglan from Shrek Academy. This is a relatively rare internal battle."

After the referee announced the start of the match.

Neither Ye Xinglan nor Na'er made a move.

"Junior Sister Na'er, to be honest, we know quite little about you. How about we have a contest of combat skills?"

"If Senior Xinglan is willing, I will naturally accompany you," Na'er said rather nonchalantly.

Ye Xinglan stared intently at Na'er, and four purple soul rings slowly appeared along with the Star God Sword.

Na'er produced a twelve-foot-long silver spear, its body covered with fine, hexagonal silver scales. The spearhead was one-third the length of the spear and had twelve grooves on its tip.

Four soul rings, three purple and one black, slowly emerged.

Her long silver hair, amethyst-like eyes, and fair, delicate skin that looked as if you could squeeze water out of it, combined with this deadly weapon, created a peculiar contrast.

The cheers from the crowd grew louder and louder.

Although they were in the Star Luo Continent, the Shrek group still gained a lot of popularity in a foreign land in just a few matches.

The most popular person here is not Lin Xingyu, who best embodies the Star Luo's concept of respecting the strong, nor Tang Wulin, who has two golden spirit rings, but Na'er, who has only appeared on stage a few times and has easily defeated her opponents each time.

As it turns out, even in the world of Soul Masters, appearance matters quite a lot.

Viewers may not remember most of the contestants besides the champion.

A beautiful girl like this is sure to leave a lasting impression on everyone.

Now two beautiful girls are fighting on stage.

Ironically, the cheers from the audience were even louder than when Lin Xingyu and Long Yue went on stage.

Ye Xinglan was like a sharp longsword, striding forward. If you looked closely, you would find that the distance of each of her steps was almost exactly the same.

Na'er shifted her gun stance, and heavy pressure fell on Ye Xinglan.

The silver dragon spear was pointed at Ye Xinglan.

Ye Xinglan's pupils contracted slightly. She felt that all her power, including her mental power, soul power, and physical power, was being suppressed and sealed in some way.

Seven Forbidden Laws!

Ye Xinglan instantly unleashed the sword intent of the Star God Sword in her hand to its maximum.

The sharp aura carved out a space in this world.

Lin Xingyu looked directly at the arena. Although the distance wasn't close, he still managed to silently penetrate a portion of his perception onto the arena using his "high-dimensional vision."

Although it is indeed very interesting to watch women fight.

However, he focused more on assessing the abilities of the two people present.

He was quite interested in the Seven Forbidden Techniques that Na'er used.

Under Makino's tutelage, he has begun to develop his own combat skills, and the techniques of his predecessors can provide him with a great deal of inspiration.

Na'er's identity is quite special, and coupled with the fact that she has been quite busy for the past few months, the group has not had any opportunity to spar.

Although combat skills are all based on the spirit, energy, and mind of the Soul Master, the resulting techniques, when combined with the Soul Master's cultivation path, are all unique.

After Ye Xinglan released her sword intent to its fullest extent, streams of sword energy bloomed out like blossoming flowers.

However, this beautiful flower kept fading away as it came to Na'er, and then Ye Xinglan kept releasing it again.

This flower of sword energy kept repeating the process of blooming and fading, just like a fleeting moment in time.

Ye Xinglan's knowledge of Na'er was limited to the fact that she was the only student who remained in the inner academy after the reform of Shrek Academy, and that she seemed to be a disciple of the Sea God Pavilion Master.

Ye Xinglan felt a complex mix of emotions regarding Na'er herself.

Since being admitted to Shrek Academy, Ye Xinglan has been proud of her identity, but she is also full of confidence in herself.

For a long time, Ye Xinglan believed that she should be the most outstanding student at Shrek Academy.

After the inner courtyard reforms, she was transferred to the outer courtyard. If it had just been that, it wouldn't have been a problem. But surprisingly, some people stayed in the inner courtyard...

Ye Xinglan said nothing about it, but deep down she was still somewhat unconvinced.

Why should you be allowed to stay?
Am I about to leave?

Ye Xinglan, who had always considered herself a member of Shrek Academy, felt betrayed.

Ye Xinglan's proudest achievement is not how much her soul power has increased or how many battle armors she has forged, but rather that she has loved swordsmanship since childhood and achieved unity of body and sword at a young age, comprehending the essence of swordsmanship.

Although she was later thoroughly criticized in this regard, it did not stop her from being proud of it.

They even looked down on Lin Xingyu, who had utterly defeated himself in this regard.

If you're going to play with a sword, then play with a sword. What's the point of constantly changing the weapons you carry?
She wasn't sincere at all when it came to swords. Seeing Na'er, she naturally wanted to understand what kind of person Na'er was.

It just so happens that the other party is also a Soul Master with a Weapon Martial Soul.

In that case, let's have a battle of skill and willpower.

We learn what kind of beings we are through battle.

Tell me through your battles whether you deserve an exception from the academy.

Even a monster like Lin Xingyu didn't go directly into the inner courtyard, so why did you stay?

Although Ye Xinglan always felt that he was not sincere in his swordsmanship, she still had to admit that he was quite impressed with his strength.

The first moment the Star God Sword clashed with the Silver Dragon Spear.

Ye Xinglan's expression changed drastically in an instant.

The Star God Sword's inherent Star God power not only failed to have any effect, but was also infiltrated by the opponent with a power.

The Star God Sword is inferior to the opponent's martial soul!
Furthermore, the power emanating from this doll-like girl was terrifying.

Thinking about the other person's usual appetite, Ye Xinglan felt a toothache. You really did eat a lot!
Driven by sword intent, endless starlight, carrying the will of slaughter, stirred up lotuses of sword energy.

Na'er's response was indeed quite simple: she used the Seven Forbidden Techniques to strengthen herself and weaken Ye Xinglan.

The silver dragon spear moved with impenetrable force, striking the weakest point of the Star God Sword again and again.

Not only did it interrupt Ye Xinglan's attack, but it also made it quite difficult for Ye Xinglan to cope, as the Silver Dragon Spear accurately struck the weakest point in her power every time.

The clash of swords and spears was a deadly beauty.

The two were quite in sync, not only refraining from using their battle armor, but also from using any of their soul skills.

He relied purely on his own martial arts skills.

"boom--"

The Star God Sword was once again deflected by the Silver Dragon Spear, and Ye Xinglan's hands went numb for a moment, almost causing him to lose his grip on the Star God Sword.

Every attack she made was clearly seen by the silver-haired girl in front of her.

"Should we fight again?" Na'er asked softly.

The power of the Seven Forbidden Techniques is constantly being exerted.

From the very beginning, Na'er drew upon the primordial energy of heaven and earth, simultaneously empowering herself and attempting to seal her opponent.

Ye Xinglan's condition was constantly being sealed and weakened during this collision.

Now she is completely at a disadvantage.

"war!"

Ye Xinglan didn't say much; she completely immersed herself in the sword intent.

She didn't know where the weakness of the Seven Forbidden Techniques lay, and she couldn't even see through her opponent's combat skills.

But she knew that her own strength could weaken any external influence.

The only thing she can improve now is her willpower.

Then strengthen your will completely!
Resist external seals and suppression as much as possible!
Close!

An inch longer means an inch stronger; an inch shorter means an inch more dangerous!

Attempting to get close was Ye Xinglan's last choice.

The Star God Sword danced.

The sword light was dazzling; each sword intent brought a calamity!

Gradually, during the battle, Ye Xinglan began to feel as if her consciousness was leaving her body.

In each collision, her physical strength, soul power, and mental power were weakened, but her will was purified time and time again.

New power is born from the heart, from the body, and from every part of the body.

"boom--"

After the two collided for an unknown number of times.

At this moment, Ye Xinglan's physical body finally reached its limit, and no matter how strong her will was, she could not generate soul power out of thin air.

The Star God Sword then flew out of his hand.

The silver spear in Na'er's hand emitted a series of buzzing sounds, like the roars of dragons.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Na'er pressed the Silver Dragon Spear against Ye Xinglan's neck.

Ye Xinglan also regained consciousness.

He felt that all his soul power, mental power, and physical strength were sealed off.

Even his hands felt a familiar tearing pain from swinging the sword too much.

"I lost this match."

Feeling a pain as if snakes and rats were gnawing at her heart, Ye Xinglan said somewhat distraughtly.

After saying that, Ye Xinglan felt a sense of relief.

Her mindset was quite conflicted.

She felt she hadn't brought shame to her college even though she lost the competition to someone from her own college.

It's better to lose to your own people than to lose to outsiders.

This meant she no longer had to toss and turn at night, unable to concentrate on her cultivation, as she had after losing in the Tianhai Alliance Grand Tournament.

Deep down, I am filled with intense guilt and unease.

It took several years for him to finally recover.

Being crushed like this, especially being crushed by a younger female student, is quite unpleasant.

Especially when you're being completely outmatched in the area where you excel.

Yes, crushing.

Na'er spent almost the entire time on defense.

'Power.' Ye Xinglan couldn't help but murmur to herself.

"Sister Xinglan, are you alright?" Na'er immediately withdrew her Silver Dragon Spear after Ye Xinglan admitted defeat, stepped forward to support Ye Xinglan, and asked with some concern as she looked at the blonde girl who was in a daze.

"I'm fine, we should go back now," Ye Xinglan said, forcing an awkward smile.

……

Inside the private room, as the battle ended.

As Lin Xingyu pondered something, he returned to his senses.

The Seven Forbidden Techniques can be described as quite amazing.

Lin Xingyu sensed the underlying philosophy within this set of combat techniques.

Spiritual power, blood and qi, and soul power are all equal before him.

Treated equally, sealed equally.

Although he had not yet met the Sea God Pavilion Master, Lin Xingyu could already sense Yun Ming's talent from this set of forbidden techniques alone.

This set of forbidden techniques seals all power equally, which means that the person who created this set of forbidden techniques has a considerable understanding of these powers.

Without understanding, it would be impossible to create such a targeted ban.

This means that his strength is all-encompassing!
His understanding of how to utilize his own vital energy and spirit, as well as his understanding of the laws of heaven and earth, gave him a lot of inspiration.
