Douluo Continent: The Twin Sons of the Styx River, Shaking the World and Destroying the Heavens

Chapter 240 Win

On the competition stage, after several judges had roughly inspected the soul tools made by the six soul masters, the chief judge took the megaphone soul tool handed over by the emcee Hu Ling, first announced the number of soul tools made by each person one by one, and then 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 being made, it must be tested in actual combat to demonstrate its power. Now, if anyone feels that their soul tool is insufficient to contend with their opponent, they may choose to withdraw."

"Otherwise, once the competition begins, you will have to bear all the possible casualties yourself."

No one on the field chose to quit.

For Soul Masters, the chances of losing in such a competition are slim, so why not give it a shot and fight for those rewards?
The competition rewards offered by the Ordinary Alliance, while not as generous or abundant as those offered by the Evening Water Alliance, were still quite substantial.

"Since no one has withdrawn, let's start with number 33 and number 41."

The soul tools created by Number 41 include several remote soul tools, as well as a soul tool 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 breastplates and waist guards. At a glance, there was no trace of any long-range soul tools.

As Wang Dong'er put on the golden arm armor and then donned the other protective soul tools, the audience who had bet on her to win couldn't help but hold their breath.

A melee-focused Soul Master has little advantage against a ranged Soul Master. Moreover, this arena is located in a large hall, much smaller than the arena of the Soul Battle Tournament. Ranged attacks can land almost instantly on the opponent. Can number thirty-three win?
Standing in position with number forty-one, he shouted loudly, "The Soul Guidance Competition begins!"

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

Wang Dong'er showed no intention of releasing her martial spirit, and many people's eyes were focused on her.

The emcee, Hu Ling, immediately began to comment: "Look everyone, the choice made by contestant number 33 in the face of contestant number 41 is unexpected. She didn't release her martial soul! This means that she will have to rely solely on the soul tool she made herself to fight against her opponent!"

"Number 41's soul tools are all ranged types. We all know that for female soul masters, using ranged soul tools often requires more effort. Can she defeat Number 33 by leveraging the advantage of ranged soul tools?"

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

On the competition stage, Wang Dong'er's choice not to release her martial soul clearly enraged Number 41. She immediately pulled out her newly crafted, most powerful soul-guided cannon and fired it towards Wang Dong'er. As a rare female soul master specializing in heavy artillery, she had put in a great deal of effort in practicing and applying this skill, confident that Wang Dong'er, relying solely on her soul power and physical body, had absolutely no chance of dodging this attack—how dare she put on airs in front of her?

However, when the smoke cleared, Number Forty-One was astonished to find that Wang Dong'er had no wounds whatsoever, and not even a single tear in her clothes. The pair of golden arm armors on her arms were emitting a faint glow, and when put together, they formed a shield.

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

Wang Dong'er's golden arm armor trembled slightly, and a sliding cover opened. She tossed out the two rows of bullet chains that had been hanging on her thigh rings, spread her arms, and the bullet chains automatically embedded themselves into the arm armor, causing the sliding cover to close swiftly. This smooth operation and the unprecedented close-range soul tool form caught the attention of the other soul masters.

Wang Dong'er threw punches left and right, and her arm armor shot out bullets like the soul guidance rays of a long-range soul guidance device. Not only did it detonate the soul guidance cannon shell of number 41 in mid-air, but several bullets also headed straight for number 41.

boom!
Wang Dong'er stomped heavily on her foot, and her figure vanished instantly. Number 41, who had just blocked the bullet, realized that Wang Dong'er was nowhere to be seen and hurriedly scanned his surroundings, trying to find her.

"Who is your sister looking for?" A voice suddenly came from the side. Number Forty-One's heart tightened, and he quickly turned around. Thump!

A force surged upwards, striking her squarely in the chin. If she hadn't instinctively activated her soul-guided shield to defend herself, this punch would have done far more than simply send her flying. Was Number Thirty-Three even human? She, who wielded a heavy artillery soul-guided weapon, didn't possess such power!
"Bang!" Wang Dong'er punched Number 41, who was protected by the soul guide shield, and slammed her to the ground, leaving the soul guide shield covered in cracks.

She nearly shattered a level-five soul-guided shield with her physical strength alone? Is she a soul beast?
"Take this!" Wang Dong'er shouted from mid-air. Number 41 had just thought that he "could not fight her head-on" when he heard this shout.

The propulsion device behind Number 41 activated instantly, propelling her backward at high speed, while she shouted, "I surrender!"

The next moment, golden flames plummeted from mid-air, dodging the retreating Number 41 before crashing to the ground, exploding into a cloud of dust.

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

Almost everyone couldn't help but twitch their eyebrows.

This is terrifying...

Number 41 swallowed hard, his voice trembling: "Thank you for showing mercy."

The emcee, Hu Ling, even forgot to give her commentary, and looking at the scene before her, she was at a loss for words.

The competition ended very quickly, but not only was Wang Dong'er's own strength a mystery, her crafted golden arm armor also became a hot commodity among the Soul Masters. If they weren't still in the competition, someone would probably have already approached her to ask if she was willing to sell this Soul Tool.

Next up is the match between number 22 and number 50.

Wang Dong'er then left.

The next day, after the group divisions were completed and a day of rest was taken, the competition continued for three more days, and then it was time to end the competition.

Only six teams remain: Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, Tang Sect, St. Freya Academy, Body Sect, and Spirit Hall.

This death group is bad.

Good news: Tang Sect did not encounter St. Freya Academy.

The bad news came from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, which was not much worse than St. Freya Academy.

The first match was between the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy and the Tang Sect.

The draw results show that in the upper bracket, Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy will face Tang Sect, and St. Freya Academy will face Body Sect.

In the lower bracket, Shrek Academy will face off against the Spirit Hall.

Today we're trying to finish the competition. In the end, three teams will be decided: one will receive a bye, and the other will advance to the semifinals.

After a brief preparation, today's competition officially began.
