Douluo Continent: Peerless Fusion Evolution

Chapter 72 A Teenager with Delusions of Grandeur Laughs at the World!

Li Sansi's lips twitched. "How can you talk like that? I'm just developing a little faster!"

Xiao Hongchen pinched Li Sansi's muscles and said, "Is this because you're developing faster? You're already exceeding the human development speed."

"Speak properly, and don't get physical, or I'll slap you!" Li Sansi shook off Xiao Hongchen's hand and took a step back.

Once he regained his senses, Xiao Hongchen quickly resumed his arrogant demeanor, crossed his arms, and said calmly, "You've become even stronger in the year since I last saw you, and you even have a 100,000-year soul ring."

"However, I will defeat you. Remember me, I, Xiao Hongchen, will be your lifelong rival." After saying this, Xiao Hongchen turned and left gracefully.

Whirring whirring!

A powerful aura blew towards Li Sansi, and feeling this aura, Li Sansi's face darkened.

"That guy is so annoying, I just want to punch him," Wang Dong'er said with a disgruntled expression as she returned to her room.

"Hehe, ignore him. He's just a mentally unstable teenager who hasn't experienced a beating." Li Sansi had finally seen someone even more pretentious than himself.

"By the way, are you sleeping here tonight or going back to your room?"

"What are you saying? I'll stay here for a bit, then I'll go back."

Not long after Wang Dong'er left.

"Elder Hai! We can begin. Let's set the location in Star Luo City this time."

"Yes, young master!"

Early the next morning, a message came from somewhere.

The Zhatian Chamber of Commerce will be holding an auction in Xingluo City, where valuable treasures will be among the items up for auction.

As for what kind of treasure it is, no one knows.

However, judging from the first auction held by the Zhatian Chamber of Commerce, a soul bone that is at least 100,000 years old must be considered a treasure.

Starry Palace.

"Brother, I heard that the Zhatian Chamber of Commerce is going to hold an auction in Xingluo City. It's obvious they want to make a fortune during this competition," Xu Jiujiu said with a resentful look.

Xu Jiawei also frowned: "Okay, Jiu Mei, go and contact the Zha Tian Chamber of Commerce to see if we can merge our auctions, because we also need to hold an auction soon."

"If we hold an auction at the same time, and our items are inferior to those of the other side, it will affect our reputation if word gets out."

"Yes, Your Majesty! I will contact the person in charge of the Zhatian Chamber of Commerce right away."

Regardless of what's happening outside, the second round of the competition has already begun.

Yesterday, half of the students from the academy went home. The first round of elimination was quite intense, eliminating half of the academy.

Many colleges were eliminated in the first round, and there were also many casualties.

The next matches are round-robin tournaments, which are not as brutal as knockout tournaments, but are still quite intense.

The Xingluo Square was bustling with noise as the audience entered.

"There's another Shrek Academy match today, I'm so excited!" an audience member excitedly told his companion.

"Yeah, bro, which member of the Shrek Academy team do you think is the strongest?" his companion asked.

"I think their captain, Li Sansi, is the strongest. He has a 100,000-year spirit ring. I've watched all the competitions from different academies and no one else has one."

"Although Li Sansi is very strong, I prefer He Caitou. Guns and cannons are the true romance of men!"

"Am I the only one who noticed that Wang Dong'er and Jiang Nannan are very pretty?" a spectator next to me said.

"Are you here to watch the game or to see the pretty girls?"

"Of course, it's to see the beautiful women, oh! And the competition!"

"Hmph! You're smart to know what's good for you!"

Once the round-robin stage begins, the rest area will be open.

Shrek Academy's rest area is located in the far north. As the number one academy on the continent, its facilities are excellent.

There are sofas, food, fruit, and drinks of all kinds.

"The benefits at Shrek Academy are pretty good, aren't they? This sofa is so comfortable!" Xu Sanshi said, lying on the sofa with a look of contentment.

Wang Yan said with a smile, "Our Shrek Academy has been the champion for ten thousand years, which is the treatment we deserve. Therefore, if we want to maintain this honor, we must also win the championship this year."

Li Sansi was engrossed in eating, muttering, "Don't worry, Teacher Wang, we've got the championship in the bag!"

"Yes, yes, yes! According to Sansi, all the other colleges are just shills!" Wang Dong'er chimed in, sipping her drink.

Wang Yan nodded in agreement. He didn't think Li Sansi was arrogant; on the contrary, he admired him.

A person must have self-confidence; without self-confidence, one will be at a disadvantage in terms of presence.

Although Li Sansi is a bit arrogant, that's based on her formidable strength.

If anyone else said that, Wang Yan would be the first to step in, even without Li Sansi's intervention, despite his lack of fighting skills.

As the team captain, Li Sansi needs to go on stage to draw lots.

The lottery process is quite simple; it's based on the small balls that fall from the lottery bucket.

The balls are divided into three colors: red, yellow, and blue. Red represents team battles, yellow represents individual battles, and blue represents two-two-three.

The small yellow ball fell out at that moment.

Individual battle!

"Shrek Academy will face off against Yunluo Academy in a one-on-one elimination tournament. The winner stays and the loser is eliminated."

The audience's eyes lit up when they heard about the individual competition.

Compared to intense team battles, individual battles are what viewers really enjoy.

Team battles may be spectacular, but many viewers can't keep up with them all. Solo battles, on the other hand, are much clearer to watch.

And if you could manage to take on seven opponents at once, that would be incredibly cool!

Li Sansi glanced at the opposing captain and stepped off the stage.

Upon arriving at the preparation area, Li Sansi asked, "Who's going first?"

Xu Sanshi stood up excitedly: "Captain, let me go. I am a defensive-type Soul Master, which is the most effective against low-level Soul Masters."

Li Sansi raised an eyebrow: "Oh? Can you take on seven opponents at once?"

One against seven!

This is a very tempting achievement!

Who wouldn't want that? But can they actually do it? Very few people can.

"I can do it! I'll go!"

Just then, Wang Dong'er stood up and said.

Immediately, everyone's eyes turned to Wang Dong'er.

"Are you confident?" Li Sansi asked with a smile.

"Leave it to me!" Wang Dong'er waved her hand and headed towards the competition stage.

"My turtle, is it really that confident?" Xu Sanshi asked in surprise.

Upon hearing this, Li Sansi explained, "The Yunluo students are not very strong. Most of them are only at the Soul Master level, and they are also Soul Instructors."

"Dong'er is also a Soul Master, and she even has twin martial souls! Her chances of winning are very high! Just wait and see the show!"

Twin Martial Souls!

Everyone was drawn to these words, and Xu Sanshi stared at Wang Dong'er's figure with a look of disbelief.

He muttered to himself, "Who are the people in my year? How come they're all so young, yet so freaks? It's making me lose confidence. Am I a good-for-nothing?"

Regardless of the preparation area, Wang Dong'er arrived on the field at this moment.
