Douluo Continent: The Sky Revealed, What the Hell is Honkai Academy?

Chapter 103 One Against Three: A Backstab from the Upper Three Sects

Honkai Academy, the highest open-air box at the management desk.

The faculty and students of Honkai Impact 3rd Academy gathered together to witness the ceremony.

Compared to the shock and excitement outside, the atmosphere inside the college was much calmer, with more of an academic discussion and curiosity.

“Level 97, that should be considered pretty impressive in this world, right?” Kiana tilted her head and looked at Fu Hua.

Fu Hua nodded slightly and objectively commented, "By the standards of this realm, he is already at the pinnacle. His soul ring configuration and spatial abilities, combined, make him virtually unrivaled among his peers."

Bronya's heavily armored bunny eyes flashed with data: "Bone Dragon Martial Soul data recorded. Estimated spatial teleportation frequency is three times per second, effective distance is fifty meters, and defensive strength exceeds 80% of a regular level 97 Soul Master. Threat level: Medium."

Theresa, holding the golden [Oath of Judah], nodded her little head: "Hmm, sounds like a very reliable defensive senior. However, it doesn't seem as powerful as our academy's defense system."

Himeko, carrying her greatsword, grinned: "No matter how strong the defense is, it's useless if you can't hit back. But that spatial ability is really troublesome. I wonder if my Flame Domain can burn through his spatial jump."

Raiden Mei frowned slightly: "His power carries an aura of death and desolation..."

Zhang Yi stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze calmly sweeping across the sky, showing no surprise at Bone Douluo's inclusion on the list.

What he was more concerned about was the chain reaction that would be triggered once the arena rules were implemented.

Just as various factions on the mainland were having different thoughts and discussing the inclusion of Gu Rong, the Bone Douluo, on the list—

Above the sky, the golden light shines even brighter!
A beam of light, three meters in diameter and imbued with the power of spatial teleportation, suddenly shot out from the scroll, traversing space and precisely enveloping the Bone Douluo Gu Rong in the private room!

"Old bones!" Sword Douluo Chen Xin's eyes narrowed.

"Grandpa Bone!" Ning Rongrong exclaimed.

Gu Rong himself laughed heartily, showing no fear whatsoever, but rather a fighting spirit soaring: "Here they come! I'm off!"

The next moment, his figure vanished instantly with the golden light.

The visuals then shifted, revealing a vast and boundless starry sky.

In the center of the starry sky stands an enormous white jade arena, inscribed with countless profound runes and exuding an aura of vast antiquity—the Douluo Arena!
The ancient banyan tree, with its majestic bone dragon form, stood in the center of the arena. Its void bone wings fluttered gently, stirring the surrounding starlight. Its nine extraordinary soul rings pulsed slowly, radiating a heart-palpitating pressure.

His gaze, sharp as lightning, swept across the endless void, awaiting the challenger's arrival. Almost the instant Gu Rong's figure solidified—

"Boo! Hah! Hah!"

Three powerful auras, each equally formidable and imbued with a resolute fighting spirit, locked onto the arena without hesitation, like rabid sharks that had caught the scent of blood!

Three golden beams of light descended almost simultaneously from three different locations around the ancient banyan tree!
As the light faded, three figures were revealed, along with their undisguised powerful martial spirits and soul power fluctuations!
His body was wrapped in raging blue electric snakes, and the huge blue electric tyrannosaur phantom roared to the sky. Although his soul rings were only the standard two yellow, two purple and five black, the pride of the true dragon martial soul and the determination to fight to the death for his family made him so imposing!
The first one is none other than Yu Yuanzhen, the patriarch of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family!

Holding the Clear Sky Hammer, which was as heavy as a mountain, his aura was as steady as the earth. The standard soul ring configuration of two yellow, two purple and five black exuded unparalleled weight and pressure. The reputation of the number one weapon spirit in the world could not be underestimated in the slightest!
The second one was actually Tang Xiao, the sect master of Haotian Sect!
The last one also wielded the Haotian Hammer, but his aura was wilder and more domineering. His eyes were filled with a wildness that looked down on the world and a trace of barely perceptible ferocity. Standing next to Tang Xiao, his aura of "I am the only one who matters" even subtly overshadowed his brother.
The third one is actually Tang Hao, who has been expelled from the Haotian Sect for a long time and has been missing for many years!
The three powerful figures, all top-tier Title Douluos of the offensive type, formed a tripartite balance, surrounding Bone Douluo Gu Rong in the center!
An aura of impending doom instantly filled the entire arena and spread to every corner of the continent through the sky!
Yu Yuanzhen took the first step forward, and a thunderous sound rang out, carrying a hint of complexity, but more so, a firm resolve:
"Ancient bones, forced by circumstances, I apologize! The fate of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family depends on this battle for a future! Today, I'll borrow your ranking for a while!"

He knew that his own spirit rings and level might not be as good as Gu Rong's after receiving the amazing reward, but the survival and glory of his family forced him to step forward, even if the hope was slim!
Tang Xiao remained calm, slightly raising his Clear Sky Hammer. His gaze locked onto Gu Rong, and his voice, steady yet carrying an undeniable power, said: "Gu Rong, the ranking on the Golden List concerns the honor of the sect and cannot be compromised. I apologize for the inconvenience!"

The words are concise, yet they fully convey the invisible competition and pressure between the three sects.

Tang Hao went even further, pointing his Clear Sky Hammer at Gu Rong, laughing wildly, his voice shaking the arena: "Old bone, I heard you're incredibly tough now? I wonder if you can withstand my Clear Sky Hammer! Today, I'll test it on you!"

He was fighting three against one! And he was being besieged by three powerful titled Douluo, each with their own unique skills!
Everyone watching from the outside world had their hearts in their throats!

The members of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School were so nervous that their palms were sweating. Ning Fengzhi gripped his sleeve tightly, and the Seven Kill Sword in Chen Xin's arms emitted a faint hum.

Ning Rongrong's face turned pale, and she gripped her father's arm tightly.

However, Gu Rong, the Bone Douluo at the center of the storm, showed no fear in the face of the oppressive aura of the three powerful figures. Instead, he let out an even louder, strange laugh:

"Gah gah gah! Good! Good! Good! You all want to use my old bones as stepping stones? Yu Yuanzhen, Tang Xiao, Tang Hao! It's perfect that the three of you come at me together, saving me the trouble of searching for you one by one! Today I'll show you what a true—Iron Wall, Space Bone Emperor—is!"

Before he finished speaking, his enormous bone dragon form erupted with a blinding white light, and the void bone wings on his back suddenly flapped, causing ripples in the space!

The war is about to break out!
At this moment, the voice of Heaven resounded once more: [The challenger has entered. If no one volunteers to fight first, a random selection will be made—]

[Random selection complete. The first challenger is Yu Yuanzhen, the master of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex!]

As soon as he finished speaking, the other two challengers were teleported to the area below the arena to wait for their turn. Heaven clearly wouldn't allow one person to fight against many; at most, it would allow a series of challenges.

On the arena, only Gu Rong and Yu Yuanzhen remained. The atmosphere between the two was as still as iron, and neither of them took the initiative to make a move.

Yu Yuanzhen knew that he could not afford to engage in a protracted battle against Gu Rong, who had been strengthened by the Golden List. He had to seize the opportunity to win with his strongest burst of power!
