Douluo: This Legend of the Dragon King is not quite right

Chapter 261 Lu Jun was targeted, Lu Jun was instantly killed.

Le Zhengyu, Xie Xie, and Long Chen were shocked and wanted to come to their rescue.

But without Lu Jun as their core commander and strongest firepower, the boys' team immediately lost their composure.

Yuan Enhui was like a tiger among sheep; her combat power enhanced by her battle armor was simply beyond the ability of Yue Zhengyu and his companions to withstand.

Gu Yuena's elemental bombardment and Xu Xiaoyan's precise control kept them constantly on the run.

In less than a minute...

[System determination: The entire boys' team is incapacitated. The sparring session has ended.]

As the light and shadow faded, the seven returned to the virtual hall.

The four boys looked dejected, their faces showing varying degrees of frustration and disbelief.

Lu Jun rubbed his still slightly numb chest and face, and said with a wry smile:
"Is this Xu Xiaoyan's absolute control?"

He truly understood what it meant to have one thing subdue another.

Despite his own abilities, he was completely controlled by Xu Xiaoyan's unreasonable and absolute control for only a second, and then he was utterly crushed by two female warriors at full power, leaving him utterly helpless.

"Waaaaah, we men can't even beat them? Is there any justice in this world?" Xie Xie cried, feeling his male dignity had been severely damaged.

"Don't even mention it." Le Zhengyu rolled his eyes in annoyance. "The highest cultivation level in our team is our class monitor. Once Lu Jun is controlled, Gu Yuena can seize the opportunity and cooperate with the class monitor to kill him instantly."

"With Lu Jun down, the three of us are nothing but vegetables in front of the class monitor. What can we do? Just wait to die!"

He finally understood.

With this female team setup—Xu Xiaoyan for crowd control, Yuanen Yehui for damage output, and Gu Yuena for magic damage—once Xu Xiaoyan manages to control Lu Jun, Gu Yuena can use spatial teleportation to send Yuanen Yehui directly to Lu Jun, rendering Lu Jun completely useless.

There is no solution!
On the other hand, the atmosphere in the girls' team was completely different.

Yuan Enhui and Gu Yuena exchanged a glance, both seeing a sense of relief in each other's eyes, as if they had finally gotten their revenge.

Xu Xiaoyan hugged the Star Staff with a grin, looking smug and proud.

"Hmph, now you know how powerful you are, huh?"

Yuan Enhui glanced at the dejected boys and felt much better.

Lu Jun was a little annoyed: "That's too unfair. Can you please stop targeting me? Let's have a fair fight."

Gu Yuena made a face at him: "So your ability isn't cheating? A bunch of debuffs, plus cold poison, and it can even absorb our soul power to increase the explosive power. We have to target you, otherwise we won't be able to fight!"

Lu Jun: "..."

……

Time passed, and the sky outside the training field had long since darkened.

That concludes today's training session.

"Alright, that's enough for today." Lu Jun, as the captain, announced the dismissal. "Everyone, go back and get some rest and digest today's battle experience. In three days, we'll still have to face Teacher Wu's care."

The seven people packed their belongings and prepared to leave.

Xie Xie's gaze unconsciously drifted towards Yuanen Yehui, and his heart pounded again as he recalled their usual meeting place.

He took a deep breath, mustered his courage, and quickly followed after him:
"Squad leader, wait for me, shall we go together?"

Yuan Enhui paused slightly, glanced at him, said nothing, and simply nodded almost imperceptibly.

Xie Xie's face instantly lit up with a bright smile, and he followed her eagerly as the two walked out of the training ground side by side.

On the other side, Lu Jun also looked at Gu Yuena.

Gu Yuena seemed to be waiting for him too; her silver ponytail swayed gently in the light, and her clear purple eyes looked over. Lu Jun smiled:
"Shall we go together?"

"Mmm." Gu Yuena responded softly, a slight smile curving her lips, and walked to Lu Jun's side.

The two left the training ground together.

Inside the training ground, only Le Zhengyu, Long Chen, and Xu Xiaoyan remained, looking at each other in bewilderment.

"What are you looking at me for?" Le Zhengyu felt the gazes directed at him, especially Xu Xiaoyan's slightly mocking look, and immediately said angrily, "I want to go back to cultivate! I don't believe it..."

He clenched his fists, his eyes blazing with fighting spirit.

"Yuan En Ye Hui and I are both fifteen years old. She's already level 53, while I'm only level 45. This gap... I must train hard to surpass her. Next time we spar, I'll definitely get my revenge!"

After saying that, he rushed out of the training field like a gust of wind, his back view filled with grief and indignation and power.

Long Chen looked in the direction where Le Zhengyu had disappeared, scratched his head, and a determined look appeared on his honest face:
"You're right... I've been stuck at level 39 for too long. I need to hurry up and train, I can't fall too far behind!"

He nodded to Xu Xiaoyan and strode away.

Xu Xiaoyan shook her head, hugged the Star Staff, hummed a song, and skipped away.

……

The night sky of Mingdu was illuminated by the dazzling soul-guided lights, like a galaxy hanging upside down on earth.

The hustle and bustle, intertwined with the shimmering lights, outlines the prosperous silhouette of this top-tier metropolis on the continent.

Lu Jun and Gu Yuena walked side by side through the bustling crowd.

The young man stood tall and straight like a pine tree, with a handsome face and a cold and focused air between his brows, a result of years of cultivation.

The girl's silver hair was tied into a neat ponytail, swaying lightly with her steps. Her purple eyes were clear and lively. Her well-tailored sportswear perfectly accentuated her youthful vitality and flexible, agile figure.

This duo is like a magnet, attracting countless admiring and amazed glances.

The two tacitly maintained a half-step distance as they passed through the magnificent archway of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, leaving the noise behind for the time being.

Shops lined both sides of the street, their colorful neon signs gleaming, and the aroma of food mingled with the low rumble of soul-guided engines wafted through the air.

"Is there something you want to tell me?"

Lu Jun broke the silence first, turning his head to look at the girl beside him.

His voice was steady, but he couldn't help but notice the beautiful figure beside him out of the corner of his eye.

Gu Yuena smiled, a perfectly timed, slightly playful smile playing on her lips, and tilted her head slightly to look at him:
"We haven't eaten all day, why don't we pick a restaurant and fill our stomachs first?"

"sure."

Lu Jun subconsciously nodded in agreement, his gaze shifting from her bright smile, but inadvertently sliding down her slender neck.

My gaze swept over the slender waist outlined by the sports top, and finally settled on the legs encased in pure white sports socks.

The lines of those legs were neither as slender as bamboo nor excessively plump.

The even and smooth texture of the skin is faintly visible beneath the white silk, revealing a powerful yet resilient quality, like a graceful cheetah poised to pounce.

The curve of the calf extends perfectly to the ankle before disappearing into the lightweight sneakers.

Any more would make her appear plump, any less would make her appear thin; and now, under the illumination of the soul-guiding lamp, she seemed to be shrouded in a hazy halo, a perfect golden ratio meticulously sculpted by the Creator.

Lu Jun's heart seemed to skip a beat; a strange feeling, like a pebble thrown into a lake, rippled across his usually focused mind on cultivation.

He realized his lapse in composure almost immediately, abruptly averted his gaze, his throat tightened, and he coughed lightly to cover it up.
"Hey, there's a new restaurant that just opened around here. I heard the ingredients are really fresh. How about we go give it a try?"
