Douluo Continent: Becoming a God of Magic Starting with Your Martial Soul

The blinding red lightning caused everyone present to shrink their pupils and instinctively close their eyes.

[Perfect timing and determination to surrender]

[Disarming Spell can be upgraded, +1 credit]

Wang Dong's figure flew backward in the arena, and the heavy, black hammer crashed to the ground with a "bang," with strands of electricity coiling around it.

However, Wang Dong reacted quickly, regained his senses, and performed a nimble backflip, landing with both feet and leaving two long drag marks on the ground, which stopped his backward movement.

A tingling, itchy sensation came from his right arm, as if a thousand ants were biting him. Wang Dong looked at his trembling right hand in disbelief.

Just as the red lightning struck her, she clearly felt something being peeled away from her body, and her connection to the Haotian Hammer was severed.

Wang Dong's gaze fell on the Haotian Hammer that had been knocked away. She saw the red current coiled around it slowly disappear, and her sense of her martial soul gradually returned.

Wang Dong was shocked and unwilling to accept it: "What kind of soul skill is this?"

As someone who witnessed it firsthand, Wang Dong had seen no fewer than five abilities from Lu Yi, yet Lu Yi clearly only had one yellow soul ring.

When did a hundred-year-old soul ring acquire such powerful skills?

Lu Yi's chest heaved violently, and beads of sweat streamed down his face, yet he maintained a composed demeanor: "You should know best what kind of soul skill this is."

Lu Yi's use of the Disarming Spell was purely subconscious, but he did not expect that the Disarming Spell would still be effective on the Martial Soul, and that the effect would be so good.

"you!"

Wang Dong was furious and wanted to pick up the hammer to fight Lu Yi again when a gentle, old, yet awe-inspiring voice suddenly rang in his mind.

"The girl from the Haotian Sect, it was just a friendly spar. It wouldn't be interesting to continue. Why not stop here and turn hostility into friendship?"

Wang Dong was immediately shocked, but after looking around, he could not see the owner of the voice.

However, she was not without knowledge. Her two uncles were both top-tier experts who had never been seen in the world, so sending messages across distances was a piece of cake for them.

It seems that a powerful figure from Shrek Academy is paying attention to this place.

With his tense nerves relaxed, Wang Dong brushed his right hand across the hammer handle, and the jet-black Haotian Hammer returned to his own body.

Seeing this, Lu Yi also lowered his guard and put away his magic wand.

Wang Dong walked up to Lu Yi, and in front of so many people, he opened and closed his mouth, but in the end, he couldn't say those words.

"How about we call it a draw today?" Seeing the atmosphere become awkward, Lu Yi broke the deadlock first: "After all, I see you still have energy, while I don't have much soul power left."

"what?"

Wang Dong's eyes flashed with surprise; she was surprised that Lu Yi would help her save face.

But a loss is a loss. This time, she'd even revealed her hand, leaving her with no excuses. Yet, her arrogance made her put on that sour face: "It's not like I can't accept defeat. I was the one who benefited this time!"

Lu Yi has now realized that Wang Dong is not a bad person at heart, but he is simple-minded and lacks proper upbringing.

Compared to many aristocratic playboys, she was already quite good.

However, it is undeniable that Wang Dong's current memory, or rather his soul, is incomplete.

She only remembered things after arriving at the Haotian Sect; she was like a blank sheet of paper.

At the Haotian Sect, she was raised by Da Ming and Er Ming, two soul beasts who had been secretly sent down to the mortal realm.

What can you expect from two humanoid spirit beasts taking care of a child? They're lucky if they even know to run home on a rainy day.

No wonder they're simple-minded, like violence, but can readily admit defeat when they can't win.

Pure soul beast mentality.

The truth is now out!

Lu Yi seemed to have figured everything out, and he found Wang Dong much more pleasing to the eye when he looked at him again.

Remembering Mu En's telepathic message earlier, he didn't mind turning hostility into friendship, so he took the initiative to make concessions.

As the two shook hands and made peace, the onlookers realized there was no more entertainment to be had and dispersed to go about their own business, leaving only Huo Yuhao and the old man who was still sunbathing.

"Wang Dong!"

"Hmm?" Wang Dong looked at Huo Yuhao walking towards him. "What is it?"

"I don't know why, but I can accept you moving into my dorm, provided you get my roommate's consent and don't threaten him with violence!"

Huo Yuhao was serious, and besides, it seemed that Lu Yi and Wang Dong had become friends after a fight, so he didn't need to make enemies with Wang Dong.

"Furthermore, I hope that relationships between classmates are based on equality and respect. If you agree, we can become friends."

Huo Yuhao realized the importance of friends after his recent experience; reliable friends can indeed be a solid support behind you.

"I—" Huo Yuhao's honesty stunned Wang Dong.

From her memory, she seemed to have been the center of attention from birth, enjoying the attention and care of others.

Although everyone treated her kindly, she felt that the Haotian Sect disciples of the same age were always too respectful when they were with her.

They always seemed to accommodate me, and even when I lost my temper with them, they always kept that smile.

They were all his friends, but was he his friend?

Hearing Huo Yuhao's words, she seemed to understand something.

Friends should be equal; friends also have tempers, and friends are human beings too.

Wang Dong's eyes flashed with determination as he looked at Lu Yi, then at Huo Yuhao: "You're right, before was... I was wrong. Are we friends now?"

"certainly!"

As he spoke, Huo Yuhao extended his hand and shook hands with Wang Dong.

"So... what should friends do together?" Wang Dong suddenly had a novel experience and asked the two of them.

Upon hearing Wang Dong's question, Huo Yuhao scratched his head awkwardly.

In his eleven years living in the White Tiger Duke's mansion, it seems that only his younger brother, who was a year younger than him, could be considered his friend.

His current friends all seem to have appeared suddenly after he left the Duke's mansion, taking the initiative to befriend him: Beibei, Sister Xiaoya, and Lu Yi. He seems to have been in a passive position the whole time.

This was the first time he had ever taken the initiative to make friends; all those profound principles he had just heard were taught to him by his mother.

He immediately looked at Lu Yi with pleading eyes.

In his view, Lu Yi was a very mysterious and resourceful person, not at all like the person he claimed to be from a small village.

Noticing the two people's gazes, Lu Yi snapped out of his reverie.

He didn't know why he did it. Perhaps at this important moment when Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong became friends, he could look up and make eye contact with someone.

Of course, he saw nothing but blue sky and white clouds.

"I don't know what friends should do!"

Lu Yi said frankly, then changed the subject, his tone tinged with resentment: "But I just took a shower and got all sweaty, so it was all for nothing. I even missed breakfast. How are you going to make it up to me as your friend?"

"It's okay, it's just breakfast. I'll treat you to breakfast today. Anyway, school hasn't started yet, and I want to stroll around Shrek City some more!" Wang Dong resumed his arrogant demeanor.

"Fine, we'll eat you out of house and home today! Let me take a shower first!"

After saying that, Lu Yi slipped on his flip-flops and walked towards the dormitory building.

Reminded by Lu Yi, Huo Yuhao also realized that he and Wang Dong had sweated a lot during their wrestling on the ground and needed to take a shower as well.

But considering that I had just made a new friend, Wang Dong, and that he had played two games in a row, I felt I shouldn't leave him hanging.

Out of politeness, Huo Yuhao invited, "Would you like to take a shower together?"

But as soon as he finished speaking, for no apparent reason, he felt a jolt all over his body.
