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

The match between the last two teams has ended.

Of the six team members who appeared, only one was a second-ring Soul Master, and the overall strength finally returned to the average level.

Although the match was back and forth, it no longer aroused the interest of others. The four teams that finished their matches had already begun to study tomorrow's game.

The situation is now very clear.

The teams led by Dai Huabin, Xie Huanyue, and Lu Yi will undoubtedly advance to the next round, though their exact number of wins remains to be seen.

The eliminated team will inevitably emerge from the remaining three teams, most likely the team whose members are all in one link.

In the cafeteria, because of Lu Yi, Lu Yi and his two companions ate at the same large table as Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong, and Xiao Xiao.

In preparation for tomorrow's match, there were no cheap dishes on the table today. Even Huo Yuhao specially ordered a medium-grade meat dish.

Although they were eating at the same table, the atmosphere between the two teams was completely different.

Although Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong had just formed a team with Xiao Xiao, the teams in their assessment area were relatively weak, so they chatted and laughed.

Zhou Sichen and Cao Jinxuan, however, seemed preoccupied, which piqued Wang Dong's curiosity.

"Hey Lao Zhou, why are you looking so dejected?"

Wang Dong's cheeks puffed out, having long since forgotten his image as a wealthy young master. He then raised an eyebrow and asked, "Could it be that today's competition got off to a bad start?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Sichen stopped eating and was about to speak when Cao Jinxuan spoke first.

"Old Zhou really showed off his prowess today, but he's fallen in love with tomorrow's opponent."

Upon hearing the gossip, Xiao Xiao, who had been eating silently the whole time, suddenly had her big eyes sparkle, but she still kept her head down, though her ears were already perked up.

"Go to hell, Lao Cao!"

Zhou Sichen angrily picked up a large piece of soul beast meat from his plate, stuffed it into his mouth, and began to chew: "I was doing desensitization training, don't you understand?"

"That's all I'm saying, but why are you taking my meat?"

Cao Jinxuan, in retaliation, snatched a piece of meat from Zhou Sichen's plate: "We agreed that Cui Yajie would be handled by Lu Yi, but you should focus on Dai Huabin. Don't cause any trouble!"

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao looked up as if in response: "Who did you just say?"

Huo Yuhao's reaction caught everyone off guard. After confirming that he hadn't misheard and that it wasn't a case of the same name, Huo Yuhao turned to look at Lu Yi.

"Lu Yi, you guys tomorrow..."

He realized he had been presumptuous and quickly corrected himself, saying, "Be careful! I trust you!"

Huo Yuhao really wanted to say that he had to beat Dai Huabin no matter what, but he knew very well what kind of strength Dai Huabin possessed.

Before he even met Tianmeng, Dai Huabin had already broken through to the third-ring Soul Master level, so it was unrealistic to think he could teach him a lesson through Lu Yi.

He has to avenge himself.

"I know!"

Lu Yi replied indifferently, though he was well aware of the feud between Huo Yuhao and Dai Huabin.

He will beat Dai Huabin, but not to avenge Huo Yuhao; it's simply because he doesn't want to lose.

……

The next morning.

The first match is between the winner of the first match and the loser of the second match.

"The Xie Huanyue team from Class 2 of the freshmen class versus the Zhou Sichen team from Class 9 of the freshmen class."

As soon as the referee finished speaking, the two teams stepped onto the playing field.

Having survived yesterday's defeat but managed to preserve his strength, Xie Huanyue is now filled with fighting spirit and determined to wash away the shadow of defeat.

Following yesterday's competition, news has already leaked that only three students at the Soul Master level emerged from this year's freshman assessment.

He and Dai Huabin were coincidentally assigned to the same area. Although the other Soul Master was also from Class 9, he was definitely not in Zhou Sichen's team on the other side.

In other words, on paper, the two Great Soul Masters plus himself, a Soul Venerable, are stronger, and he is very confident in this battle.

The two teams announced their names and stood at the edge of the playing area.

"Let's proceed according to the agreed-upon plan!" Lu Yi said to his two teammates, standing behind Zhou Sichen.

Don't worry!

Zhou Sichen was fully focused, while Cao Jinxuan nodded.

As the match began, all six summoned their martial spirits simultaneously.

Unlike the others, Lu Yi chose to put his right hand behind his back, only showing his wand and not his spirit ring.

Because of the special nature of the curse, Lu Yi can keep his soul ring hidden as long as he doesn't activate the amplification.

When the three people on the other side saw that Lu Yi still chose to stand by and watch, just like yesterday, they were first stunned, and then anger rose to their brows.

"How dare you look down on us, Tianba! I'll go deal with that ungrateful bastard."

Luo Tianlong instantly locked onto the target, and then the three of them launched a simultaneous charge.

The competition venue is just a square with sides of 20 meters, which is not large in comparison. You can cross the entire venue in just a few steps.

Apart from Xie Huanyue, whose beast spirit is the defensive type Pipi Elephant, the Luo brothers are all agility-based attackers, and their spirits are all special weapons called Mantis Blades.

What makes it special is that the Mantis Blade grows from the arm, like the forelimbs of a mantis, and is neither an ordinary weapon spirit nor a beast spirit.

The three moved the moment the battle began. The Luo brothers quickly flanked from both sides, while Lu Yi and his two companions slightly increased the distance between them.

Xie Huanyue charged straight at Lu Yi and his two companions. His enormous size caused the arena to tremble slightly with every step he took, and his speed was by no means slow.

Just as Xie Huanyue rushed to the center of the arena, two beast spirits landed in front of him, standing on the left and right to block his path, and then launched an attack on him.

"Boom!"

Xie Huanyue first clashed with the giant yellow bear, and surprisingly gained the upper hand against a soul beast of several hundred years.

However, when the Flaming Tiger also launched an attack, in a two-on-one situation, Xie Huanyue's actions were not only slowed down, but he could only use his first soul skill "Elephant Body" to withstand the Flaming Tiger's attack.

Upon seeing this, Luo Tianba immediately changed the direction of his charge. The mantis blade on his arm snapped open, and he leaped high into the air, aiming directly at the side of the Flaming Tiger.

Cao Jinxuan naturally wouldn't let them succeed. His second spirit ring lit up, and he activated his spirit skill, Time Lock.

Luo Tianba's body was frozen in mid-air, and he himself was plunged into a brief period of darkness.

"Lu Yi, now's the time!"

Lu Yi cast two obstacle spells, but neither hit Luo Tianlong, who was as thin as a stick yet exceptionally agile, like a mudfish; they only slightly hindered his progress.

Seeing that Luo Tianlong was not far away, and hearing the shout, Lu Yi did not hesitate to cast the armor protection, then turned the direction of the magic wand and pointed it at Luo Tianba in mid-air.

To deal with an opponent wielding a weapon, Lu Yi naturally had to use the most targeted spells.

"Expelliarmus! (Expelliarmus!)"

"Sizzle~"

A bolt of red lightning shot out from the tip of the staff and struck Luo Tianba in an instant.

Luo Tianba was knocked away by the knockback effect of the disarming spell and landed on the edge of the arena.

Then, Luo Tianlong's mantis blade landed on Lu Yi's shield, sparking a shower of tiny sparks.

Lu Yi staggered slightly. There was no time to think about the current situation. He quickly summoned a new shield to withstand Luo Tianlong's rapid and fierce attacks.

The next moment, Cao Jinxuan's soul skill also came to the rescue, slowing down Luo Tianlong.

Lu Yi finally seized the opportunity. Two spirit rings, one yellow and one purple, rose from his feet and quickly transferred to his wand. Red electricity had already begun to accumulate on the tip of the wand.

"First Soul Skill, Rage - Ex... (Except)"

But at that moment, a mournful wail rang out, followed by the referee's voice, which was mixed with soul power, forcibly silencing Lu Yi's second half of his sentence.

"The game is paused!"
