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

Chapter 111 The Lion Douluo Reaps the Benefits, Tension Between Humans and Soul Beasts Rises
"You wicked dragon! You are a bloodthirsty monster, today is your death day!"

The Lion Douluo's voice was as loud as a bell, and golden flames soared into the sky around him, making him look like a god of light.

He stepped forward, his blazing domain of light expanding at full power, frantically burning and dispelling Zi Ji's already crumbling Eternal Night Demon Realm.

"Ninth Soul Skill: Lion's Roar Strike!"

Without any unnecessary words, Lion Douluo unleashed his strongest attack!
Transforming into a golden blazing sun, carrying the magnificent divine power to purify everything, he crashed into Zi Ji, who was already at her last gasp! He wanted to strike while she was weak and take her life!

"Roar!"

Zi Ji let out a resentful dragon roar, squeezing out the last bit of power within her body to unleash the [Dark Dragon Breath] once more, while simultaneously shrinking the remaining Eternal Night Demon Domain to protect her body!

“BOOM—!!!!”

Light and darkness collided and annihilated each other once more! But this time, the darkness clearly ran out of steam!

The golden flames eroded and purified the dark dragon breath at a visible speed, finally crashing heavily into Zi Ji's dragon body!
"Click..."

The already dull [Dragon Reverse Scale Armor] finally couldn't withstand the pressure and shattered completely!

The enormous dragon body of Zi Ji was scorched by the flames, its skin torn and its scales flying off. It let out a painful howl and was blasted away, crashing heavily to the edge of the arena. It then returned to human form, its body charred black and barely breathing.

Although Lion Douluo was also injured by the recoil and blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, he still stood firmly, his gaze cold as he looked at Zi Ji who was lying on the ground.

[Heaven's Judgment: Zi Ji is pushed off the stage; Lion Douluo wins! Rankings change!]

[Douluo Continent Power Ranking, 19th Place – Lion Douluo!]

Golden light descended, and the reward merged into the Lion Douluo's body. He felt the powerful energy surging into him, looked at the critically injured and dying Zi Ji on the ground, and coldly uttered:
"A ferocious beast is still a ferocious beast. It has power but doesn't know how to bide its time. It deserves this calamity!"

These words were like the most vicious mockery, causing Zi Ji, who was barely maintaining a sliver of consciousness, to spit out another mouthful of blood in anger, her eyes filled with endless resentment and humiliation!
Outside the arena, after a brief period of complex emotions, the human world erupted in cheers for Lion Douluo.

Having just revived Qianjun and Jiangmo in the Hall of Offerings, he also clenched his fist heavily, his expression extremely happy, at least the ranking rewards did not fall into the hands of the soul beasts!
……

In contrast, the Star Dou Great Forest was completely engulfed in raging anger and sorrow!

"You old lion and dog! I will kill you!!" Xiong Jun roared to the sky, his voice echoing for miles.

"Despicable! Shameless! Taking advantage of others' misfortune by fighting three against one!" The Demon King's voice was hoarse and filled with killing intent.

With tears in her eyes, Brigitte immediately flew to the teleported Ziji and did her best to heal her, since those who hadn't 'died' needed to heal themselves.

The Red King's three heads were frantically tearing at the surrounding trees, venting their rage.

Di Tian slowly raised his enormous dragon head, and his terrifying dragon might crushed the surrounding mountains as if it were a tangible force.

His golden dragon eyes burned with a fury powerful enough to incinerate the world. He spoke each word slowly and deliberately, his voice like that of the deepest hell, echoing throughout the entire Star Dou Great Forest:

"Spirit Hall! Lion! Today you killed my kin and stole my opportunity! I, Di Tian, ​​swear here and now that I will avenge you in this lifetime! The day I emerge from seclusion will be the day your Spirit Hall is drenched in blood, and that old dog Lion will be torn to pieces! This hatred is irreconcilable!!"

Gu Yuena's silver hair moved without wind, and her purple eyes flashed with icy killing intent. She looked at the heavily injured Zi Ji, then at the spirited Lion Douluo in the sky. Her clear, cold voice carried supreme authority, setting the tone for the day's events:

"Human evil lies in the heart. The current situation is not a fault of war, but a result of the poison in people's hearts."

"They can disregard the death of their companions for the sake of profit, and thus reap the benefits."

"From this day forward, the Star Dou Great Forest and the Spirit Hall will be locked in a life-or-death struggle!"

"All spirit beasts that come into contact with the Spirit Hall shall be killed without mercy! Use their blood to commemorate the souls of Qianjun and Jiangmo, and to wash away Ziji's shame!" The Lord's words were like a final judgment.

This pushed the Star Dou Great Forest and the Spirit Hall into a deep abyss of complete confrontation, leaving no room for reconciliation.

……

Honkai Impact Academy, inside the VIP box.

"Wow, that was a brutal fight..." Kiana covered her mouth.

Bronya calmly analyzed: "On a tactical level, the human side used hatred to make Qianjun Douluo attack blindly, further depleting the target, and finally the one with the elemental advantage would reap the rewards. The strategy was successful but at a huge cost. On an individual level, Ziji's strength was overwhelming, but she was caught in a war of attrition and an emotional trap, and ultimately lost."

Fu Hua shook his head slightly: "He is brave but lacks wisdom. After a series of battles, he lost his morale and his opponent found his weakness. If he could have remained calm and composed, he might not have suffered such a crushing defeat."

Theresa's face turned pale: "Although...but...this is too bloody."

Himeko, carrying her greatsword, said with sharp eyes, "That lion, he took advantage of me and then spoke so rudely. Next time I run into him, I'll have to teach him a lesson."

Rita elegantly wiped away non-existent dust and smiled, "What a... ugly fight. But the seeds of hatred have been sown, and the continent is about to become even more lively."

Zhang Yi stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze profound: "Although there were no casualties, Xing Dou lost a reward from the Heavenly Dao, and a deadly enmity was formed on the spot."

"This ranking of the strongest is truly a mirror that reveals the true nature of all living beings and ignites the flames of war in this chaotic world."

After this battle, the Star Dou Great Forest and the Spirit Hall have become mortal enemies, and the landscape of the continent is in turmoil.

The cruelty and allure of the [Douluo Power Ranking] are deeply imprinted in the hearts of every living being.

Above the sky, the golden light of the rankings converges once more, and the countdown for the eighteenth place is about to begin!
……

Golden light flowed rapidly across the scroll.

Finally, the eighteenth place was firmly fixed, coalescing into a line of large characters with flowing strokes, as if cast from gold!
At the same time, a giant crocodile phantom, as majestic as a mountain, covered in dark golden scales, and exuding the aura of a savage overlord, was projected onto the screen!
That ferocious head, those cold vertical pupils, and those gigantic jaws that seemed capable of crushing stars—all of them sent chills down one's spine!
