Douluo Continent: Starting from the Fusion of My Martial Soul with Xiao Xiao

The following day, the day of the semi-finals, Shrek College of Foreign Languages ​​was completely engulfed in celebration.

As dawn broke, the largest central arena in the outer courtyard was already packed with people.

The stands, which can accommodate tens of thousands of people, were packed to capacity. Even the aisles and railings were crowded with people, including freshmen and seniors from the School of Foreign Languages, senior students from the School of Internal Studies, and many professors who came specifically to watch the game.

Everyone's face was filled with excitement and anticipation, their eyes fixed on the center of the arena.

Today's two semi-final matches are destined to be recorded in the history of the Shrek Newcomer Tournament.

On one side is Huo Yuxi, who possesses Title Douluo-level mental power and the quasi-god king martial soul Divine Eye; on the other side is Xue Qingwu, who controls demigod ice and the god-level martial soul Ice and Snow Goddess.

Two of the continent's most outstanding female prodigies will engage in a showdown here, vying for the first ticket to the finals.

On the observation deck of the highest teaching building in the School of Foreign Languages, the four deans stood side by side, their expressions solemn.

Amidst the mists of the Sea God Pavilion, Mu En, leaning on his cane, slowly opened his cloudy eyes.

His gaze pierced through the layers of mist, landing on the central arena. His voice was hoarse and deep: "It's finally begun. The clash between these two children will likely exceed our expectations."

Elder Song stood beside him and bowed slightly: "Elder Mu, I have already set up three layers of defensive barriers around the Soul Arena, which should be able to block their aftershocks."

Moon shook his head slightly, tapping his fingers on the armrest of his cane: "I'm afraid that's not enough."

Based on the battle data from the past ten days, both the Divine Eye Martial Soul and the Ice and Snow Goddess possess power approaching the divine level. The four deans should be prepared to intervene at any time; no child must be allowed to get hurt.

"Yes, I will tell Lin'er and the others to keep an eye out."

In the center of the arena, referee Wang Yan took a deep breath and announced loudly through his megaphone: "The second match of the freshman competition semifinals: Huo Yuxi's team versus Xue Qingwu's team!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire audience erupted in thunderous cheers.

"Huo Yuxi! Huo Yuxi!"

"Snowflakes dance lightly! Snowflakes dance lightly!"

The deafening shouts rose and fell, almost lifting the dome of the arena.

Two figures emerged simultaneously from the passages on either side of the Soul Arena.

On the left, Huo Yuxi was dressed in a white outfit, her high black ponytail fluttering in the wind, her icy blue eyes calm and still, yet concealing a burning fighting spirit.

Behind her, Xie Huanyue stood tall and straight, her Pipi Elephant Martial Soul faintly emerging, emanating a heavy aura. Zhu Lu held her arm, her eyes resolute, the soul power of the Netherworld Cat flowing between her fingertips.

Huo Yuxi's gaze immediately fell on the front row of the stands.

Xue Yuheng was sitting there, with Xiao Xiao and Wang Dong standing on either side. He looked indifferent, seemingly unconcerned about the competition, but when Huo Yuxi's gaze fell on him, he nodded slightly, giving her an encouraging look.

That one look made Huo Yuxi's heart skip a beat, and her blood boil.

She clenched her fists and made a silent vow in her heart.

I must win.

I want to stand on the final stage, side by side with you.

On the right, Xue Qingwu wore a simple white dress, surrounded by a faint halo of ice and snow. Her skin was as white as snow, and her eyes were clear and cold, like an ice goddess who did not eat the food of the mortal world.

Behind her, Wu Feng, dressed in red, exuded the faint, powerful aura of a crimson dragon.

Ning Tian held the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda, its gentle light enveloping the three of them.

Xue Qingwu's gaze also fell on Xue Yuheng. She didn't have much affection for Huo Yuxi.

However, she seemed to have sensed the presence of an old friend on Huo Yuxi earlier, and Xue Yuheng explained it to her.

Huo Yuxi had good opportunities; even her martial soul level was higher than his, Xiao Xiao's, and Xue Yuheng's, reaching the quasi-god king level.

But that's far from enough.

"Both sides, take your positions!" Wang Yan shouted. "Release your Martial Spirits!"

In an instant, two completely different but powerful auras erupted simultaneously from the center of the Soul Arena.

Huo Yuxi was the first to release her martial soul. Her icy blue divine eyes slowly opened between her brows, and rings of golden light spread out from her body. Three soul rings—yellow, yellow, and purple—rose from beneath her feet, a result of her suppressing her quasi-god-king level martial soul.

That spiritual power, at the level of a titled Douluo, swept across the entire arena like a tsunami, making all the spectators feel a slight heaviness in their heads.

Xie Huanyue and Zhu Lu also released their martial souls simultaneously, with two rings of soul rings rising: one yellow, one yellow, and one purple, and the other yellow, one yellow, ready for battle.

On the other side, the temperature around Xue Qingwu plummeted, and the phantom of the Ice and Snow Goddess slowly emerged behind her. Pure white snowflakes danced in the air, and the entire Soul Arena seemed to have turned into an ice and snow world.

Three red spirit rings rose up, and the overwhelming pressure of the Demigod Ice instantly shocked everyone present.

A terrifying expanse of red! How is this possible?!

What kind of humanoid soul beast?

Wu Feng's Crimson Dragon Martial Soul erupted completely, his entire body covered in red dragon scales, his dragon wings unfurled, and his aura became fierce.

The Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda in Ning Tian's hand shone brightly, and two beams of amplifying light instantly fell on Xue Qingwu and Wu Feng.

"The seven treasures have names, the first being: Strength!"

"The seven treasures are named, the second being: Speed!"

"The match begins!"

At Wang Yan's command, the battle commenced instantly.

"Wu Feng, engage them head-on!" Xue Qingwu's cold voice rang out as she launched the first attack.

"Understood!" Wu Feng shouted, his dragon wings flapping as he charged towards Xie Huan Yue like a streak of red lightning. "First Soul Skill, Dragon Claw!"

The sharp dragon claws, wreathed in scorching flames, viciously clawed at Xie Huanyue.

"Well done!" Xie Huanyue advanced instead of retreating, unleashing the full power of his Pipi Elephant Martial Soul, his body doubling in size, his skin becoming as hard as rock. "First Soul Skill, Elephant Armor!"

"Bang!"

The dragon claws and the elephant armor collided violently, producing a deafening roar. Blazing flames and heavy earth-elemental soul power splattered everywhere, and both were forced back three steps, showing that they were evenly matched.

At the same time, Zhu Lu's figure flashed, turning into a black afterimage, and circled around to the side, pouncing towards Ning Tian.

Xue Qingwu snorted coldly, raised her hand, and waved, "Emperor Sword!"

A giant sword, ten meters tall, appeared out of thin air and blocked Zhu Lu's path.

Zhu Lu had no time to stop her momentum and crashed hard into the giant sword, making a muffled sound before being bounced back.

Just then, Huo Yuxi finally made her move.

The light in her divine eye between her brows suddenly intensified, and her Title Douluo-level spiritual power condensed into a golden spear, which she fiercely thrust towards Xue Qingwu.

This spiritual spear was silent yet contained destructive power, tearing even the air apart.

"First Soul Skill, Song of Ice and Snow!"

The heavens and earth displayed unusual signs; snow fell in August.

Xue Qingwu's expression changed slightly; this was the first time she had used her own soul skill.

"Snap! Snap! Snap!"

The golden spiritual spear, unstoppable and with undiminished momentum, pierced towards Xue Qingwu.

Xue Qingwu dodged the attack with a swift movement, skillfully using the fundamental laws of space.

The spiritual spear grazed her shoulder and slammed into the ground of the arena, creating a crater several meters in diameter.

The entire audience gasped.

The clash of their first soul skills alone was already this terrifying!

"Huo Yuxi's mental strength is terrifying! No wonder she could kill her opponent with a single glance!"

"Xue Qingwu's ice and snow defense is also very strong! It actually managed to block the mental spear!"

"That was amazing! This is what a semi-final should be like!"

On the observation deck, Yan Shaozhe said with a solemn expression: "Huo Yuxi's spiritual power is no less than that of an ordinary Title Douluo."

Xue Qingwu's demigod ice has already touched the threshold of godhood. These two children have limitless potential.

Xianlin'er nodded: "Yes, I never expected that our Shrek Academy would produce two such geniuses at the same time."

The battle in the arena intensified.

Wu Feng and Xie Huan Yue fought fiercely, their dragon flames clashing with the elephant armor, sparks flying everywhere.

Zhu Lu repeatedly tried to ambush Ning Tian, ​​but was blocked by Xue Qingwu's ice-type soul skills.

Huo Yuxi and Xue Qingwu then engaged in a ranged attack, their golden spiritual power colliding with the icy blue power of ice and snow in the air, producing bursts of booming sounds.

The entire Soul Arena was trembling slightly, and the defensive barrier set up by Wang Yan had begun to show cracks.

"This can't go on." Xue Qingwu frowned slightly. She knew that the longer it dragged on, the worse it would be for her. Huo Yuxi's spiritual power was almost inexhaustible, while her soul power would eventually run out.

Xiaoxue, I've had enough of the act you promised me; it's time to end it.

"Wu Feng, Ning Tian, ​​cover me with all your might!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the icy aura surrounding Xue Qingwu suddenly surged, and the illusory image of the Ice and Snow Goddess behind her became incredibly solid.

Her three spirit rings lit up simultaneously, and her icy voice resounded throughout the arena: "Snow Woman Transformation!"

A three-ring Soul Master, the true form of a level 40 Soul Master's Martial Soul!

This once again shattered everyone's worldview.

In an instant, the world changed color.

The once clear sky was instantly covered by dark clouds, and large snowflakes fell from the sky, causing the temperature in the entire arena to plummet to tens of degrees below zero.

Xue Qingwu's figure completely merged with the illusory image of the Ice and Snow Goddess, transforming into a two-meter-tall Ice and Snow Goddess, radiating a sacred yet icy aura.

All attributes are boosted fourfold!

This is the strongest form of the divine martial soul, Ice and Snow Goddess: Snow Maiden Transformation!

A terrifying pressure swept across the entire arena, and even the spectators in the stands felt a chill run through their bodies, and their soul power became sluggish.

The four deans' expressions changed drastically, and they immediately joined forces to set up an even thicker defensive barrier.

"What kind of move is this? Martial Soul True Form?"

"Why haven't I seen Xue Qingwu use it these past few days?"

"Is this the strength of the top ten on the Heavenly Ranking?"

After ten days of intense competition, the students and teachers discovered that Xue Qingwu's ranking on the Heavenly Ranking was truly well-deserved.

Could it be that they've already had a competition in private?

Huo Yuxi's expression also became extremely solemn.

She could clearly feel that Xue Qingwu's strength had increased more than fourfold, and that demigod-level ice and snow power made her soul tremble slightly.

But she did not back down.

She remembered Xue Yuheng's encouraging look and the obsession in her heart.

She cannot lose.

"Brother Tianmeng, help me!" Huo Yuxi cried out in her heart.

"Alright! Xiao Xi, I'll lend you all my spiritual energy!" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's voice rang out in her spiritual sea, and millions of years of spiritual energy surged into her body like a flood.

The divine eye between Huo Yuxi's brows erupted with an unprecedented golden light. She slowly raised her head, her icy blue eyes turning pure gold, and a vertical pupil slowly opened in her eye.

God's eyes, swastika.

boom!

An aura even more terrifying than the Snow Maiden Transformation erupted from Huo Yuxi. Golden light shot into the sky, piercing through the dome of the Soul Arena and soaring into the clouds.

The entire Shrek Academy was enveloped in this golden light.

The very essence of heaven and earth seemed to converge upon Huo Yuxi at this moment. Behind her, a gigantic golden eye appeared, overlooking all living beings with the majesty of a quasi-god-king.

This is the true power of the Divine Eye!

The divine realm, the central hub.

Tang San was sitting in his office chair, flipping through the files of the law enforcement team.

Suddenly, he raised his head sharply, his gaze piercing through the barrier of the divine realm and landing on the Douluo Continent.

When Tang San saw that golden divine eye and the beautiful young girl's figure below it, his brows furrowed tightly.

"The chosen one... has turned into a woman?"

Tang San's voice was cold, tinged with anger.

He had already laid out countless contingency plans, calculating the life of the chosen one, making him his successor to protect the Douluo Continent.

But now, the originally chosen one has deviated from the path he set and has become a girl.

"Who? Who is tampering with my plans?"

Tang San's gaze swept across Douluo Continent, finally landing on another strange aura emanating from Xue Yuheng, who was standing by the stands at the Freshman Tournament.

When he tried to investigate Xue Yuheng's background, he was blocked by an invisible force and could not see anything.

"Could this power originate from another universe?"

Tang San sneered, "No matter who you are, if you dare to disrupt my millennium plan, you will pay the price."

However, in just two seconds, his gaze attracted the attention of another god-king.

"Tang San, do you really consider Douluo Star your private property?!"

Douluo Continent, Shrek One Central Battle Arena.

With her Divine Eye fully activated, Huo Yuxi's strength surged to its peak. She raised her hand and countless golden spiritual blades materialized out of thin air, raining down on Xue Qingwu like a storm.

"The three wonders combined create a scene of utter desolation."

Xue Qingwu also launched an attack, and the snow and ice in the sky turned into a huge storm that collided with the golden spiritual blade.

"boom!!!"

A deafening roar that seemed to destroy the heavens and the earth rang out.

Golden spiritual energy and icy blue ice and snow power exploded in the center of the arena. The terrifying energy shockwave instantly shattered the defensive barrier jointly erected by the four deans.

At this moment, the entire Central Battle Arena was completely razed to the ground.

Debris flew everywhere, dust billowed, and the arena, the size of three basketball courts, was reduced to ruins, with even the foundations being torn up.

The audience in the stands gasped in surprise, but fortunately the four deans intervened in time to protect the stands, preventing any casualties.

"Cough cough..." Amidst the dust, Xie Huanyue and Zhu Lu were sent flying backward, crashing heavily to the ground, incapacitated. Wu Feng also knelt on the ground, covered in wounds, panting heavily.

Only Huo Yuxi and Xue Qingwu remained standing in the center of the ruins, facing each other from afar.

Both of them were seriously injured. Blood trickled from the corner of Huo Yuxi's mouth, and her golden eyes dimmed slightly.

Xue Qingwu's snow maiden transformation also became unstable, and her ice and snow armor was covered with cracks.

The outcome hinges on this one battle.

Huo Yuxi took a deep breath, gathered the last of her mental energy, and prepared to launch her strongest attack.

Divine Eyes, Mental Storm!

A golden beam of light, imbued with all her power, shot towards Xue Qingwu. This attack contained the power of a Super Douluo, enough to instantly kill an ordinary Title Douluo.

At this critical moment, an extremely faint cellular fluctuation silently invaded Huo Yuxi's body.

It's the cellular biological martial soul of the Lan sisters!

Long before the competition even began, they had already scattered countless invisible cells into the air of the arena.

These cells, like the most precise assassins, invaded Huo Yuxi's mental sea the moment she launched her full-force attack, interfering with the operation of her mental power.

Just one second.

However, in a duel between top-tier experts, a single second is enough to decide the outcome.

Huo Yuxi's mental energy momentarily stalled.

The golden beam of judgment light also veered slightly, grazing past Xue Qingwu before striking the ground in the distance, blasting out a bottomless crater.

That brief pause gave Xue Qingwu her chance.

Third Soul Skill: Ice Seal.

An extremely cold white beam of light struck Huo Yuxi hard.

Before Huo Yuxi could even react, she was engulfed by the white pillar of light. Her body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily onto the ruins. Her divine eye completely dissipated, and she lost consciousness.

"The match is over!" Wang Yan rushed over and announced loudly, "Snow Dance Team wins!"

The entire stadium fell silent, then erupted in thunderous cheers.

But Xue Qingwu felt no joy in victory. She deactivated her Snow Maiden transformation, swayed, and nearly fell. Wu Feng quickly caught her.

Xue Qingwu glanced at the unconscious Huo Yuxi.

A formidable opponent, which forced her to use half of her power.

Before the competition, she thought that using 30% of her strength would be enough.

The four deans rushed down immediately to check Huo Yuxi's injuries. Fortunately, it was only a matter of depleted soul power and overexerted mental energy; her life was not in danger.

Just then, the terrifying aftershock of energy finally spread outside Shrek City.

A black figure rushed in from outside the city in an instant.

The Heavenly Dancer, dressed in a dark, form-fitting outfit, possessed a graceful figure and exuded the aura of a Limit Douluo-level expert. She gazed calmly at the ruins of the Soul Arena before her.

She raised her hand, and a glint of silver-purple light flashed from the jet-black Time-Space Ring on her wrist.

"Time rewind."

As the soft voice faded, a miraculous scene unfolded.

The flying pebbles actually started to flow backwards.

The shattered ground began to heal rapidly, the broken railings were pieced back together, and the overturned seats returned to their original positions.

In less than three breaths, the central arena, which had just been razed to the ground, reappeared perfectly intact before everyone's eyes. Not a single crack, not a speck of dust, as if the earth-shattering battle had never happened.

The entire room fell silent.

Everyone stared at the Heavenly Dancer in disbelief.

A fighting arena the size of three basketball courts, instantly restored? What kind of power is this?

On the observation deck, the four deans' expressions changed drastically, their eyes filled with shock and apprehension as they looked at the Heavenly Dancer.

Inside the Sea God Pavilion, Mu En suddenly sat up straight, a glint of light flashing in his cloudy eyes: "The power of time... this is already enough to make one invincible at the Limit Douluo level. It seems that the power around Xue Yuheng is even more terrifying than we imagined."

Ignoring everyone's gaze, the Heavenly Dancer confirmed that the Soul Arena had been repaired, then vanished from the spot in a flash, as if she had never been there at all.

On the stands, Xue Yuheng slowly stood up, his gaze falling on Huo Yuxi who was being carried off the stage, his expression complex.

He looked up at the sky, his eyes deep and thoughtful.

On his blank book of heaven, a man's panel appeared for the second time.

In other words, Tang San must have been watching him just now.

Sooner or later, I will personally go to the realm of gods and meet you.
