Douluo Continent: I Have a Diverse Order-Taking Platform

Chapter 167 I was careless and didn't flash (6k) (Please subscribe)

"Brother Bei."

"You've arrived."

The next morning, Liu Yuan and his companion had a simple breakfast and then met up with Bei Bei, who was leading the way, downstairs at the teaching office.

After a brief greeting, Liu Yuan asked, "Where are we going next?"

"Battle Arena".

Because it was the Inner Academy assessment, the Soul Arena was closed again this morning. When Bei Bei arrived with Liu Yuan and Di Qiu'er, three stunningly beautiful women, each with their own unique charm, were already waiting on the stage.

Beibei was stunned into place after just one glance.

Instinctively, I turned to leave.

Unexpectedly, the woman in the lead suddenly spoke up: "Beibei, you've come."

Beibei froze, looking somewhat awkward.

"Uh—um"

"Sister Lexuan, I've brought the person."

When she met those eyes that were like autumn waves, Beibei seemed at a loss and avoided their gaze.

Because on the very day he entered the inner courtyard, Mu En found Bei Bei alone and told him about the promise he made with Zhang Lexuan back then.

From that moment on, Beibei felt he could no longer face the relationship between him and Sister Lexuan.

If he is still the Beibei who has Tang Ya, then his feelings for Sister Lexuan are only familial affection, and the overwhelming guilt that comes with knowing the truth.

But now he is a young man who has just broken up with his girlfriend, and he is even the kind who is full of youthful vigor.

So when Beibei was told the truth by his great-grandfather, he was shocked like never before.

He lost his parents when he was young. He longed for maternal love, and it was Sister Lexuan who filled the void in his childhood.

Later, Tang Ya's appearance took away a piece of this satisfaction, and it gradually grew stronger.

And now?

Tang Ya left, leaving a huge void. And Zhang Lexuan's reappearance was like the light that shone into him when he was a child returning to him.

So Beibei felt ashamed!

because--

He was tempted!

The inner turmoil and the guilt clashed at this moment, making it impossible for Beibei to confront his inner feelings. Even after entering the inner courtyard, he continued to run away, as if constantly postponing the full eruption of this conflict, hoping to find a solution.

well-

Seeing Beibei's reaction, Zhang Lexuan sighed silently in her heart.

She knew that Beibei was running away from her own feelings. And she was also clear about Beibei's inner thoughts.

Zhang Lexuan isn't blind.

She clearly saw Beibei's shyness, excitement, and even panic when she learned the truth.

She could wait, until Beibei made a decision based on her heart. After all, even if the situation was bad, could it be worse than when Beibei already had someone she liked, and she could only watch from the sidelines, silently offer her blessings, and choose to give up?

I doubt it is.

Is this the senior sister from the inner court?

When Bei Bei called out Zhang Lexuan's name, Liu Yuan already knew her identity. However, he quickly withdrew his gaze from Zhang Lexuan and turned it to the two girls beside her.

Zhang Lexuan is the strongest among all the inner court students.

Therefore, Liu Yuan didn't believe that a mere inner court assessment would warrant the intervention of this senior inner court disciple. She was more likely there to act as a referee. His and Qiu'er's opponents would probably be the other two girls.

But then again, isn't there something a little off about this atmosphere?

Why have you been silent for so long?

Liu Yuan, whose attention was just focused on the inner court assessment, has finally come to his senses.

With a quick glance, he noticed the source of the strange atmosphere.

Beibei! You little rascal!

Liu Yuan's eyes were full of meaning. He tilted his head slightly and met Di Qiu'er's gaze.

They saw the unspoken meaning in each other's eyes—

(=)(==)

The two of them were in perfect sync, tightly suppressing the corners of their mouths.

Hey—you noticed it too?

Moreover, Liu Yuan and Di Qiu'er weren't the only ones who shared the same feeling and were still watching the drama unfold online.

If you don't believe me, just look at Zhang Lexuan's side.

As Xiang Ci pressed his lips tightly shut, Wu Ming's eyelids blinked wildly, as if sending a telegram, constantly conveying the information he wanted to say to Han Ruoruo.

Holy crap! Did you see that? There's something going on between the senior sister and this new junior in the inner courtyard!

Even the usually serious Han Ruoruo couldn't maintain her composure at this moment, and quietly nodded in agreement. Meanwhile—

Beep beep beep—

With a blink of an eye, he replied with a telegram.

I saw it. I didn't expect that so many boys in our inner courtyard failed to win over the senior sister's heart, but instead a new little brother who came to the inner courtyard succeeded.

Wu Ming: Hoo hoo hoo, I don't think so.

I think it's a case of the older sister being an older woman dating a younger man. She doesn't like older men; she prefers younger men who are ten years younger than her.

No wonder our inner circle group didn't succeed; their "flesh" was too old.

Beep beep beep—

Hehe—is that so?

how about you?

Do you also like women ten years younger than you?

Or do you prefer a man ten years older than you?

Wu Ming:? ? ?

No!? Where did this unfamiliar channel come from?

Ruoruo, do you know?

What if?

Seeing that no one responded, Wu Ming glanced at them out of the corner of her eye.

Then Han Ruoruo suddenly adopted a serious expression, looking extremely solemn.

Wu Ming:? ? ?

No?

Sister Ruoruo, what are you pretending for?

But the next second, she froze.

Because she saw Zhang Lexuan staring at her, and even blinking her eyelids in a rhythmic manner.

Now I know where the unfamiliar frequencies come from.

"Senior Sister—"

"Ming'er!" Before Wu Ming could finish speaking, Zhang Lexuan snapped, "Are you bored?"

"no."

Wu Ming couldn't help but feel like crying.

Be careful when gossiping!

Zhang Lexuan rolled her eyes at her but didn't argue with her. She had already adjusted her mindset and focused her attention on Liu Yuan and the others.

Hello, junior students.

"I am Zhang Lexuan, the senior disciple of the Inner Court."

"As Beibei has probably already told you, the assessment for entering the inner academy is practical combat. The academy has arranged for you to face Wu Ming and Han Ruoruo this time, one a Soul Saint and the other a Soul Douluo."

"What!?"

Wu Ming: "————"

Before Zhang Lexuan could finish speaking and before Liu Yuan and the other person could say anything, Bei Bei couldn't help but exclaim in surprise!

"Sister Lexuan, are you kidding me?! The captain and Qiu'er are just Soul Kings, you're telling them to—"

"I'm not mistaken," Zhang Lexuan interrupted Bei Bei, shaking her head as she said, "Besides, you should also know that the opponents in the assessment were not arranged by me."

Beibei was speechless.

Yes, Sister Lexuan is not qualified to make arrangements.

Only the dean and vice dean can be arranged.

But given Liu Yuan and Di Qiu'er's identities, would Dean Yan and Vice Dean Cai make the arrangements on their own?

Of course not!

In that case, there's only one answer.

But why?

Beibei was completely baffled, but Liu Yuan stepped forward at that moment and asked in a humble yet assertive manner, "May I ask, Senior Sister Lexuan, are we going to defeat the two senior sisters?"

As he asked the question, Di Qiu'er nodded in agreement. Clearly, she shared the same view as Liu Yuan.

"Wow!" Wu Ming's eyes widened in surprise. She couldn't help but exclaim, "Junior students, you're pretty arrogant, aren't you?"

"well enough."

Di Qiu'er spoke first, but her tone was calm and indifferent, as if she were just drinking water.

Liu Yuan cupped his hands and smiled, "Please don't misunderstand, senior sisters. We just wanted to clarify things first."

Upon hearing this, Wu Ming and Han Ruoruo exchanged a glance.

That's pretty arrogant!

"A stick of incense."

Zhang Lexuan held up one finger. "If you can last for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, you'll pass."

This wasn't her request; it was something Elder Mu told her personally. The purpose was to force out Liu Yuan and Di Qiu'er's true strength, to see just how powerful they were.

At this moment, Han Ruoruo looked at Zhang Lexuan.

She didn't speak, but her eyes conveyed only one meaning:

Isn't that a bad idea?

Even without joining forces with Ming'er, just her own Soul Master cultivation level of Soul Douluo would probably be enough to keep the two junior students from lasting even an incense stick burning for a while.

As an inner court student of Shrek Academy and the top controller in the inner court, she is much stronger than some of the less capable ones, and she would not be at a disadvantage even against ordinary titled Douluo.

So, can they hold on?

A hint of unease flashed through Zhang Lexuan's mind.

Because her thoughts were similar to Han Ruoruo's, but this was an order given by Elder Mu, she had no choice but to follow it.

Seeing that Zhang Lexuan remained silent, Han Ruoruo acquiesced. Fine, she'd go easy on her later.

Hey, watch your step, Yiming'er.

Let's get to the point!

Wu Ming was already eager to try!

"Come on, let's begin."

Let me see what you've got up your sleeve!

Seeing this, Zhang Lexuan said, "Then both sides get ready. You have three minutes to discuss tactics, and then we'll begin."

Both sides went on stage and then stepped back. Zhang Lexuan and Beibei stood below the stage and watched.

Compared to Bei Bei's apprehension, Zhang Lexuan was more curious. She was curious about the identities of Elder Mu's two personal disciples, and Liu Yuan, the Holy Son of the Sea God Pavilion and its next Pavilion Master.

"How should we fight?" Di Qiu'er usually doesn't use her brain; during battles, she relies on Liu Yuan as her external brain to make decisions.

"Concentrate your firepower and take one down!"

"Who?"

"Wu Ming."

Liu Yuan spoke with certainty.

As a fire-attribute, offensive female soul master, her fiery personality will be extremely prominent, which also means impulsiveness.

Presumably Wu Ming will be no exception.

Perfect, they can use this personality flaw to test the effect of their fifth soul skill. If all goes well, they'll only have one opponent.

"We do this—cluck cluck cluck cluck."

"good!"

Di Qiu'er trusted Liu Yuan completely. So she did whatever he said.

Three minutes passed in the blink of an eye. When Liu Yuan and Di Qiu'er stood side by side, their auras intertwined, and an imposing aura arose spontaneously.

Drawn by the energy, Han Ruoruo and the other person subconsciously turned their gazes over and noticed something unusual.

interesting!

Wu Ming's eyes seemed to burn with excitement as she leaped to the front. She seemed to rely on her high cultivation level and was largely unsuspecting.

Han Ruoruo was much better than her and did not look down on them because of their cultivation levels.

Seeing that the time had come, Zhang Lexuan said softly, "Both sides, prepare."

Instantly, both of their spirit rings shone brightly.

Although Liu Yuan and Di Qiu'er's soul power cultivation was far inferior to Wu Ming and Han Ruoruo, their aura was only slightly inferior due to the difference in the quality of their martial souls.

Upon seeing this, Wu Ming raised an eyebrow.

Upon seeing this, Han Ruoruo's brow furrowed.

At this moment, her slender figure, simply standing there quietly, gave off a sense of stability and composure. Her eyes sparkled as they fell upon Liu Yuan.

In an instant, Liu Yuan felt an immense mental pressure bearing down on him as Han Ruoruo locked onto him.

Han Ruoruo, a control-type Soul Master with the cultivation level of a Soul Douluo, already possesses powerful enough mental strength to easily lock onto opponents' minds. This allows her to accurately judge their actions and exert strong mental pressure, thus creating a suppressive effect.

The effect is particularly good when there is a difference in cultivation level. It reduces the opponent's performance while increasing one's own performance to 120%. These are the techniques that Shrek Academy has developed over the past ten thousand years, and they are only available to inner court students and people with special identities like Liu Yuan.

Of course, this does not mean that mind locking has no drawbacks.

Once a mind lock is cast using mental power, it means that the caster's primary target is the victim, and this cannot be changed.

By doing this, Han Ruoruo was undoubtedly telling Liu Yuan: I've got my eye on you, and I'll deal with you first.

However, there are ways to counter mind control.

As luck would have it, Liu Yuanxue learned it.

His eyes turned purple, instantly enveloping his entire body.

Comparing mental strength?

He's not afraid!

Do you even understand what it means to have form but no substance?

The next second, "Huh?" Han Ruoruo was surprised to find that her mind lock had been blocked.

How could this happen when it was clearly an eighth-ring opponent against a fifth-ring opponent, and neither of them had a mental attribute?

This was something she never expected.

"Ming'er, be careful, that Liu Yuan—"

Before Han Ruoruo could finish speaking, Zhang Lexuan said, "Begin!"

At this point, Han Ruoruo had no time to speak.

Or rather, there's no time to listen anymore. Because once the battle begins, it's all about who can seize the initiative.

As the saying goes, the first to strike wins, the last to strike suffers!

Wu Ming took the lead!

She leaped out with a light touch of her toes. Golden-red Golden Crow True Fire instantly rose up, illuminating the entire area and completely obscuring Han Ruoruo behind her.

Liu Yuan was overjoyed.

really!

Good timing!

The next second, with a delicate shout from Wu Ming, as she charged forward, her right hand pointed to the sky, and her fourth spirit ring shone brightly in an instant.

A ball of light, about the size of a longan but with a ruby-red hue, suddenly shot into the sky!

The sphere of light continued to rise into the air, growing larger with the wind.

When it was about 30 meters above the ground, the light ball, which was the size of a washbasin, crashed down like a meteor towards the land in front of Liu Yuan and Di Qiu'er!

However, faced with such a fierce attack, something unexpected happened to Wu Ming and Han Ruoruo: the two of them neither dodged nor yielded!

wrong!

has a problem!

Both Wu Ming and Han Ruoruo had the same thought at this moment. It wasn't that they could see through the next move, but rather it was their intuition honed from years of fighting.

Just as Wu Ming was about to control his fourth soul skill, "Golden Crow True Fire Ring," to fall to the other side—

"Shoo-One"

The Golden Dragon Spear was obtained and then violently thrown out!

Before Wu Ming could regain control, "Boom!"

A burst of intense flames suddenly erupted!

However, the golden dragon spear that Di Qiu'er threw with terrifying power did not change its throwing direction.

The momentum remained unchanged, shooting straight towards Wu Ming!

The spear could easily pierce through his fourth soul skill, yet its offensive remained unchanged. Wu Ming realized that this spear was no ordinary weapon. He even guessed its nature.

"A Martial Soul Innate Weapon!? You guys have that too?"

After Wu Ming finished speaking, he didn't resist. He simply turned to the side, and the Golden Dragon Spear plunged into the ground behind him.

Just then, a beam of emerald-gold light shot out from behind the flames like lightning. Its terrifying speed could almost be described as blinking. In just two leaps, it appeared not far in front of Wu Ming.

"A trivial skill!"

It's just a Soul King's Soul Skill, why would she need to dodge it?

Hiding my ass!

Whoever dodges is a low-level Soul Master!

A golden-red pillar of fire instantly shot out from her hands, with a cross-sectional diameter of one meter, and crashed straight towards the emerald-gold beam of light.

To Wu Ming's surprise, after a brief exchange, her Golden Crow True Fire was already at a disadvantage. In less than a second, the fire pillar exploded, while the emerald-gold light pillar remained unchanged.

After destroying Wu Ming's first soul skill, even though she used soul power to protect herself, the emerald-gold beam of light still pierced through her soul power shield with overwhelming force and finally shot into her body.

wrong!

Wu Ming immediately sensed that something was wrong.

She could feel that she could no longer mobilize her soul power!

At this moment, beneath Wu Ming's clothes, a soul imprint resembling a willow tree had taken shape.

At that very moment, the Azure Emperor's Soul-Sealing Seal was activated!

The flames had just dissipated, revealing Liu Yuan's figure. And the name of that soul skill he had just used was shouted out by him the moment it hit Wu Ming.

As a soul skill capable of sealing an opponent's soul power, it is virtually impossible to resist unless the caster actively cancels it or the target uses their mental energy to dissipate it. However, because it follows a straight path and cannot be controlled twice, the target can easily dodge this sealing soul skill.

Unfortunately, Wu Ming was too confident and didn't dodge.

What is she like now?

no!?

They all hit me, is it necessary to shout or not?

Liu Yuan had just succeeded in using the "Azure Emperor Soul Sealing Seal" when, in the next second, Di Qiu'er's body vanished instantly, reappearing in front of Wu Ming using the Golden Dragon Spear.

Seeing that her soul power had been sealed and she didn't have time to use her mental power to dissipate it, Wu Ming's eyes widened immediately.

no!?

You can teleport like that?!

Got it!

"Clang!"

The Golden Dragon Spear made a clanging sound, but it was not pulled out. On the contrary, Di Qiu'er had a cold expression. The moment Xiong Ba opened up his understanding, she punched Wu Ming directly!

"pong

'

In an instant, the air itself seemed to explode with a deafening roar.

"Ming'er!"

The moment the sound rang out, a pale golden light flashed past, striking out from behind Wu Ming like lightning, heading straight for Di Qiu'er's back.

Han Ruoruo has finally made her move!

In order to go easy on Liu Yuan and Di Qiu'er, Han Ruoruo did not initially intend to take action immediately, but instead let Wu Ming fight them first.

Who would have thought that Wu Ming was just careless and failed to dodge, thus falling into the trap set by Liu Yuan and the other two.

Liu Yuan and Di Qiu'er seized upon the two women's underestimation of their opponents. Without Han Ruoruo making a move, they used their rare soul skills and tacit cooperation to instantly render Wu Ming unable to use her soul power, causing her to lose 90% of her combat strength.

But now that Han Ruoruo has made her move, Liu Yuan dares not underestimate her in the slightest. Because this is the strongest opponent they have ever faced!

However, he had already been on guard against Han Ruoruo.

I just didn't expect her to make a move so late.

Han Ruoruo's first spirit ring shone brightly, and the golden light was like an infinitely extending golden thread, rushing forward like a serpent. In the instant it swept through the air, it shot towards Di Qiu'er.

"Clang—"

'

The golden rope, as if alive, trembled slightly to the left and right, instantly outlining two golden halos that aimed directly at Di Qiu'er's golden dragon spear and her waist.

But the next second, the ground cracked.

Countless tree roots, writhing as if alive, rushed toward the golden rope's blockade.

At the same time, three medium-sized wooden dragons were born from this process, two of which went to bite at the two golden halos, while the other swallowed the golden rope.

Although they had never fought, Liu Yuan knew very well how terrifying a Soul Master of the Soul Douluo level, especially an Inner Academy student, could be.

What he wanted was not to completely stop Han Ruoruo, but to buy time for Di Qiu'er to take down Wu Ming.

At this moment, "What a brilliant move!"

Despite being outmaneuvered, Wu Ming was not angry at all. The moment she discovered that her soul power was sealed, her first reaction was to use her mental power to break the seal.

But at that moment, Di Qiu'er's fist came smashing towards her face.

Although Wu Ming considered himself a top-tier offensive Soul Saint, with physical strength comparable to a power-type Soul Emperor, how could he compare to Di Qiu'er, a Soul King of ultimate power? A head-on clash would be asking for a beating.

Her first reaction was to hide!

Buy enough time to break the seal.

But Liu Yuan had long been multitasking.

As he tried to stop Han Ruoruo, Wu Ming's feet were already bound by tree roots.

Trying to hide?

No way!

Therefore, Wu Ming had no choice but to take the hit head-on.

Come on! Drink!

'

Di Qiu'er remained silent, delivering only a simple and unadorned punch!

At the moment the two fists collided, "bang!"

The terrifying force tore apart the tree roots that were binding Wu Ming, sending her flying backwards instantly!

But that's not all.

Adhering to the principle of "beating a dog when it's down"—

Fifth Soul Skill - Golden Dragon's Fury Burst!

Di Qiu'er's fist was entangled by the golden dragon.

Then, with a powerful blow, it slammed directly into the ground!

Before Wu Ming could land from her inverted flight, the ground beneath her was bathed in a layer of golden light.

The air seemed to be distorting, forming a light shield that enveloped her completely.

The next second, "Roar roar roar—"

The roaring dragon's cry echoed from the ground, like thunder from the heavens, like the clash of swords and the thunder of horses!

A golden dragon burst forth from the ground, engulfing Wu Ming completely. And this wasn't the first time. The rising golden dragon swiftly turned and plunged downwards!

Just as the second explosion was about to land, Zhang Lexuan, acting as the referee, intervened and saved Wu Ming.

Just then, with a "crack," Han Ruoruo ripped and pulled at Liu Yuan's control over the Golden Rope, causing it to shatter. The two golden rings that the wooden dragon was holding suddenly split into six, intertwined, and then scattered in three different directions—

"Click—, click—"

The two wooden dragons were shredded into dust.
