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

To Lu Yi's surprise, after the competition, he had expected someone to come looking for him because of the abilities he had revealed.

But apart from Zhou Sichen and Cao Jinxuan constantly asking him questions, everything seemed calm and peaceful.

The afternoon finals began as scheduled.

Inside the assessment venue.

All the barriers have been removed, and the field now has no boundaries, allowing the participants to roam freely.

Because it was the annual freshman assessment finals, there were many more teachers watching than in the morning; almost everyone who was free was present.

After all, the fact that two teams could stand out from nearly a thousand people and more than three hundred teams makes their competition itself extremely attractive.

Moreover, all the teachers had heard the news that none of the three teams with Soul Masters that appeared this year made it to the finals, and all of them were defeated by the two teams in front of them.

This inevitably raised their expectations even higher.

In the most conspicuous spot in the stands, besides Yan Shaozhe, the dean of the Martial Soul Department, sat a tall and muscular man, who was none other than Qian Duoduo, the vice dean of the Soul Guidance Department.

The two bantered from time to time, appearing to be having a good time, but in reality, they were more cunning than the number of new students this year, each scheming to take advantage of the other's resources.

Zhang Lexuan sat quietly in the corner of the stands, her beautiful eyes gazing at the field, a hint of contemplation in her gaze.

On the competition stage, the six players from both teams had already completed the name announcement process.

Even though they are close friends, they don't let feelings interfere on the field; this was a consensus that both sides privately agreed upon before the match.

As the start date approached, the referee explained the important points to note for the final match.

"...Flying martial spirits are not allowed to fly more than ten meters off the ground. Everyone can do whatever they want and go all out against the enemy. There is no need to worry about seriously injuring the opponent. I will control the degree of the competition."

The two teams then proceeded to the starting area of ​​the match.

Both sides have different thoughts now. Although they have made some simple preparations before the game, they are now thinking about how to perform in the game.

Especially Huo Yuhao and Lu Yi.

Huo Yuhao kept his secrets from beginning to end. Whether it was his two soul skills—mental interference and soul impact—or the existence of Brother Tianmeng, he knew that these were things he absolutely could not let outsiders know.

He naturally knew that Lu Yi's secrets were no less than his own.

Furthermore, thanks to Tianmeng's reminder, he learned that Lu Yi's mental strength had improved considerably compared to when he first met Lu Yi more than three months ago.

If Tianmeng hadn't witnessed Lu Yi's martial soul firsthand, she would have thought Lu Yi was also a spirit-type soul master.

"Yuhao, I must remind you, Lu Yi's mental strength is no weaker than yours. Don't use your soul attack on him lightly, otherwise you are very likely to suffer a backlash."

The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm transformed into the shape of a silkworm, its beady eyes opening within Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea.

"Huh?" Huo Yuhao didn't expect Tianmeng to say that, and he didn't expect it to give Lu Yi such a high evaluation. "I didn't plan to use my soul to attack Lu Yi. Before I met you, it was Lu Yi who risked his life to save me from the wind baboon."

Although Huo Yuhao said he would do his best, his obsession with the championship had lessened after defeating Dai Huabin that morning.

He would still do his best to assist Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao in fighting against Lu Yi and the others, but he would instinctively resist using his mental power to hurt his friends.

"Womanly compassion!"

Tianmeng gave its evaluation without any mercy. Huo Yuhao's inner thoughts only made it feel disappointed and frustrated, and it immediately adopted the posture of a strict teacher.

"You think you've avenged yourself just because you defeated your enemy once? If you don't seize the opportunity, you'll only make your goal of becoming a god increasingly distant!"

As someone who had been imprisoned for countless years by the powerful beings of the Star Dou Great Forest and whose cultivation was absorbed by them every day, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm harbored a hatred far deeper than that of Huo Yuhao.

"I understand, Brother Tianmeng!" Huo Yuhao realized that his soft heart was a betrayal of Brother Tianmeng and Wang Dong, so he put aside his thoughts and his eyes became firm.

Lu Yi was completely unaware of Huo Yuhao's inner transformation, but he made thorough preparations for the upcoming match.

Wang Dong, needless to say, knew his opponent's soul skills perfectly well from their previous encounters; it was just that his strength had increased during this period.

Xiao Xiao, on the other hand, relies on her three large cauldrons to attack through impact and sound waves.

The one who deserves the most attention is undoubtedly Huo Yuhao.

With his detection assistance, most of his attacks would be more likely to miss, and only by not generating a projectile could he cast the immediately effective mental spell "Confuse the Mind" to ensure a hit.

As for whether this spell could interfere with Huo Yuhao, who fought using mental power, he specifically consulted the erudite Electrolux.

By summarizing, Lu Yi arrived at the following answer:

The Confusion Spell might affect Huo Yuhao, but it's unlikely that it will affect him.

At the same time, Wang Dong still had the seal left by his father in his mind, and Lu Yi would never dare to try to use it on him easily.

That leaves only...

Lu Yi focused his gaze on the green-haired figure in the distance.

The match began with the referee's whistle.

Everyone activated their martial souls, and as usual, they were Lu Yi's opponents. Huo Yuhao and his two companions took the initiative to attack.

Wang Dong summoned his dazzling butterfly wings and inevitably flew above Huo Yuhao, while Xiao Xiao followed beside Huo Yuhao, ready to unleash her soul skill at any moment.

Because of the great distance, Lu Yi casually tossed a few spells at the other party, not to hit them, but to distract them slightly.

Just as the three of them easily dodged the incoming missiles, only Zhou Sichen and Cao Jinxuan remained on the opposite side.

"Where is Lu Yi?" Wang Dong's alarm bells rang, and he quickly ordered his teammates to stop advancing, asking Huo Yuhao.

At this moment, they were less than 100 meters away from Zhou Sichen and Cao Jinxuan. The two of them did not move forward, but waited for them to come over, as if a trap was waiting for them.

At this crucial juncture when they are about to clash, no one dares to be careless.

When did Lu Yi acquire the ability to become invisible?

This question simultaneously crossed the minds of several people.

However, Huo Yuhao was not flustered by this, after all, his mental detection was not to be underestimated.

As long as Lu Yi is within his detection range, there is no possibility of him being deceived.

As the eyes lit up, mental detection was activated.

However, the diameter of his current full-domain mental detection is only fifty meters, which is a radius of twenty-five meters.

Of course, he can also concentrate his mental energy in one direction, which will allow him to reach a distance of nearly eighty meters.

In extreme conditions, the distance can exceed 100 meters, but the mental energy consumption is extremely high.

However, if Wang Dong were to cooperate with him, this problem would not exist, so he immediately summoned Wang Dong.

When the two men pressed their palms together, Hao Dong's power flowed through their bodies, and his soul power was immediately enhanced.

The mental probe stretched into the distance like a searchlight, and when it reached its furthest point, it revealed the current state of Zhou Sichen and Cao Jinxuan.

Immediately afterwards, the mental probe began scanning the area.

Soon, at a distance of seventy meters in their one o'clock direction, a vortex of dust in the air caught his attention.

Then, at a distance of sixty meters in their two o'clock direction, a clear human silhouette entered their minds.

"Lu Yi, we've found you!"
