Douluo Continent: Character Monologues, Starting with Qian Daoliu!

Chapter 158 Soul Rings Downgraded, Demons and Monsters Arrive! [First Update, Requesting Recommendation Tickets and Monthly Tickets!]

The academies participating in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament generally possess their own unique trump cards.

[For example, the Martial Soul Academy team possesses the Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Enchanting Charm.]

[For example, the Tianshui Academy team has the Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Ice and Snow Drifting.]

[For example, both the Shrek Academy team and the Star Luo Royal Academy team possess the Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Netherworld White Tiger.]

Although Canghui Academy isn't one of the top academies in the Heaven Dou Empire, they still have some trump cards.

What are Canghui Academy's trump cards?

[It's a fusion technique!]

[A seven-in-one fusion technique!]

Canghui Academy initially believed they could easily defeat Shrek Academy with their Seven-in-One Fusion Technique, but unexpectedly, they were caught off guard and easily defeated by Tang San without breaking a sweat.

[Canghui Academy lost to Shrek Academy due to underestimating their opponent!]

[Shi Nian also lost to Tang San due to underestimating his opponent!]

The defeat of Canghui Academy is merely the loss of its qualification for the finals of the Continental Elite Tournament of Advanced Soul Master Academies.

[But his failure that year cost him his life and everything he owned!]

……

Martial Soul City, Martial Soul Academy.

"If I remember correctly, Tianmu mentioned before that when Tang San participated in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy, he was only a four-ring Soul Master. So how careless he was back then that he was killed by a Soul Master despite being a Soul Saint."

When Xie Yue spoke, he was filled with curiosity.

After Xie Yue finished speaking, Yan spoke with a disdainful expression.

"Being killed by someone three major realms weaker than himself, I have to say that Nian was truly a piece of trash! No! Calling him trash is an understatement; he was even worse than trash!"

After speaking, Yan, like Shi Nian, was very curious about how Tang San killed Shi Nian, since there was a difference of three major realms or even a major level between the two!

Under normal circumstances, it would be quite remarkable for a Soul Master to be able to kill an enemy by crossing a major realm or a major level!

Where is Tang San?
It spans three whole times!

So, was Tang San too strong, or was Shi Nian too weak?
……

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the dazzling light curtain in the sky slowly revealed the death of Shi Nian.

[At the Continental Elite Tournament of Advanced Soul Master Academies, the Canghui Academy team faced off against the formidable Shrek Academy team. To ensure his team's advancement to the finals, Shi Nian decided to assassinate Tang San, the most elite member of the Shrek Academy team!]

In Shi Nian's view, with his strength as a seven-ring Soul Saint, killing a mere four-ring Soul Master would be an easy task.

Upon seeing Tang San, Shi Nian attacked without hesitation, immediately trapping Tang San in an illusion.

[In the illusion, Tang San was in immense pain.]

Shi Nian never imagined that Tang San would ultimately break free from the illusion he was so proud of!

The moment Tang San escaped from the incredibly realistic illusion, Shi Nian was sentenced to death!

[At that time, Tang San used the Tang Clan's hidden weapon, the Yama's Decree!]

[The King of Hell's Decree contains a deadly poison! The moment it enters the body, the person will die because there's no time to detoxify! When Shi Nian was successfully struck by Tang San's King of Hell's Decree, he died within a few breaths.]

[At the end of that year, only a skull fragment remained in the world, a tragedy second only to that of a certain unfortunate soul whose corpse was eaten and whose soul was devoured.]

Qian Renxue: "???"

Dude, you're talking about Shi Nian, why are you bringing up her father, Qian Xunji? His body was eaten, his soul was devoured, isn't that exactly what Qian Xunji is talking about?

Soon, a dazzling light screen in the sky revealed the results of that year's list.

[The results of the rankings that year, and the punishments!]

The reasons for the punishment are as follows!

[Firstly, as a teacher, he harbors malicious intentions and attempts to advance his academy through underhanded methods, failing to set a good example for his students!]

Secondly, not only were they dishonest, but they also failed in the end, failing to even understand the principle that a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit!

[Punishment Details: All spirit rings will be downgraded by one tier!]

After the imposing voice fell, a bolt of purple lightning, as thick as a tree trunk, condensed in the sky.

Immediately afterwards, with lightning speed, the purple lightning struck the ground in a flash.

Zi Lei's target is Shi Nian!
In the blink of an eye, Zi Lei and Shi Nian were in very close contact!

The moment the purple lightning struck Shi Nian, dazzling, ever-changing soul rings rose from beneath his feet.

Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black!
Shi Nian's soul ring combination was very standard.

Subsequently, Shi Nian's spirit rings underwent a dramatic transformation at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The first and second spirit rings changed from yellow to white.

The third and fourth spirit rings changed from purple to yellow.

The fifth, sixth, and seventh spirit rings all turned from black to purple without exception.

The soul ring combination was downgraded by a whole level, which was no different from taking Shi Nian's life.

While Shi Nian was punished for making it onto the talent list, Lu Chen also received a reward from the system.

[Congratulations, host! You have successfully revealed the talent list once! You will receive the following rewards!]

[Reward 1: Domain - Demons and Monsters!]

[Reward Description: The "Demons and Monsters" domain is a controllable and combat-effective feature. Once activated, enemies within the domain will have their movement speed halved and will face attacks from three powerful demons: Chi, Mei, and Wangliang! The strength of these three demons depends on the host's strength; the stronger the host, the stronger they become!]

Lu Chen hasn't obtained a domain in a long time.

How long?
It seems like a day has passed!

After reviewing the first reward, Lu Chen put it into his pocket without hesitation.

Afterwards, Lu Chen checked the second reward he had received from the challenge.

[Reward Two: Special Skill - Time Stop!]

[Reward Description: Time Stop is a special skill involving time and space. After use, everything within a kilometer radius of you will be frozen in place! All other living beings will be unable to move! Time Stop can only be used once a day, and each use lasts for three seconds.]

Three seconds?

As Lu Chen thought to himself, displeasure and dissatisfaction appeared on his face.

Time stop, this skill is great, Lu Chen likes it very much.

However, the duration of this skill is far too short!

Three seconds?

Lu Chen really couldn't think of anything he could do in such a short time.
