Douluo Continent: Starting with a Heavenly Fire Judgment

Chapter 175 The Underworld

While Li Yan activated his invincible shield to block the attack, he didn't see that Xu Sanshi had already jumped off the stage and was in mid-air. The moment his invincible shield expired after three seconds, a black light locked onto him again. The next instant, Li Yan appeared in mid-air, while Xu Sanshi appeared in his original position.

Li Yan's expression twisted. He was driven to the brink of madness by Xu Sanshi's actions, but as a Soul King, he still managed to use his flying soul tool in time. A pair of mechanical wings unfolded on his back, allowing him to stabilize himself in the air.

But just as he regained his footing and narrowly returned to the arena, a figure appeared in front of him, and a large, black shield slammed into his chest. The instant he was hit, Li Yan felt a wave of dizziness, and then his body flew up uncontrollably, falling straight off the arena. When he came to his senses, he was already below the arena, and when he looked up, he saw Xu Sanshi's smug smile.

A surge of anger welled up inside Li Yan, and his eyes instantly turned red.

He wasn't seriously injured throughout the entire process; Xu Sanshi's attacks weren't enough to break through his soul-guided armor. However, he was completely outmaneuvered by Xu Sanshi, causing his blood pressure to spike, his vision to go black, and him to almost vomit blood.

However, after glancing at the referee, Heavenly Fiend Douluo, he suppressed the urge to go and fight Xu Sanshi. With a gloomy face, he returned to the rest area of ​​the Sun Moon Royal Soul Masters and said with a guilty expression, "I'm sorry, I lost."

Ma Rulong didn't blame him. He knew that Li Yan had done his best. Xu Sanshi was inherently superior to Li Yan in terms of attributes, and with that troublesome fourth soul skill, it was normal for Li Yan to lose. Although it was a bit shameful for a Soul King to be toyed with and defeated by a Soul Master, it would be acceptable if the opponent was Shrek Academy.

After all, Shrek Academy has even more outrageous Soul Masters on their side, Soul Emperors who aren't even confident they can beat them.

The audience at the scene didn't think Li Yan's defeat was anything shameful; they all thought it was quite normal.

Tian Sha Douluo glanced at Xu Sanshi and said in a deep voice, "Chen An, the second individual player for the Sun and Moon Team, come on stage. You, step back." The last few words were directed at Xu Sanshi.

Xu Sanshi slowly retreated, using the milk bottle to restore his soul power during the retreat.

Chen An, one of the regular members of the Sun and Moon Team, possesses the martial spirit of the Lightning Bird.

Chen Fei is a speed-type ranged attacker. After Tian Sha Douluo announced the start of the match, he instantly transformed into lightning and rushed towards Xu Sanshi, covering a distance of 100 meters in an instant.

"Clang—" A golden light suddenly swept across the Xuanming Turtle Shield, scattering a series of sparks. Then, a series of explosions rang out on the Xuanming Turtle Shield. The terrifying explosive force even made Xu Sanshi, who possessed the Xuanming Turtle Shield, unable to withstand it. He quickly took a few steps back and kept shifting his feet before he could stand still.

Although Xu Sanshi had strong defenses, he was still forced to retreat under Chen An's relentless attacks, unable to even stand firm.

Chen An is not like Li Yan. He is too fast and is good at close combat. Xu Sanshi's fourth soul skill, Xuanming Displacement, cannot threaten him.

Flashes of light left streaks of scorching sparks on the Xuanming Turtle Shield, while bolts of lightning brought with them a violent roar.

At this moment, Xu Sanshi was as precarious as a withered lotus leaf swaying in the wind, seemingly on the verge of perishing in the lightning at any moment. He was getting closer and closer to the edge of the competition platform.

"boom--"

A thunderous roar resounded on the Xuanming Turtle Shield, blasting Xu Sanshi away from the arena. Just as he was about to land, Xu Sanshi used the same trick again, his fourth soul ring lighting up and a ray of black light shooting towards Chen An. However, Chen An retreated at lightning speed, dodging the black light's lock-on. He had been anticipating Xu Sanshi's move.

Left with no other option, Xu Sanshi fell off the ring and lost the match.

Compared to Li Yan, Xu Sanshi was the one who got beaten up the whole time when facing Chen An.

Xu Sanshi returned to the Shrek Academy rest area dejectedly. Wang Yan comforted him, "Defeating one of their Soul Kings is already quite good. Chen An is too much of a counter to you. If they were of the same level, you definitely wouldn't have lost. Don't worry too much about it."

Xu Sanshi glanced at Jiang Nannan and muttered, "If it's not... ε=(ο｀*))) Sigh! Never mind."

Bei Bei patted Xu Sanshi on the shoulder. He knew that Xu Sanshi still had trump cards he hadn't used yet, and he knew that Xu Sanshi was a little unwilling, but what could he do when Xu Sanshi hadn't met the conditions to use that power?

The second Shrek Academy member to take the stage was Bei Bei. As a fellow lightning-type Soul Master, Bei Bei's Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex completely overwhelmed Chen An. Although Chen An still had a Soul Tool, Bei Bei also used Tang Sect hidden weapons. Although Tang Sect hidden weapons are considered outdated compared to Soul Tools, they still have considerable destructive power at the Soul King stage. Ultimately, because his Martial Soul was suppressed, Chen An was defeated by Bei Bei.

The third to appear from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy was Mika, but Mika had participated in a team battle and his frozen body had not yet healed. Facing Bei Bei's Tang Sect ultimate techniques and the hidden weapon Mother-Child Soul-Chasing Life-Stealing Dart, he was ultimately defeated. If it weren't for Tian Sha Douluo saving him in time, he would probably have been seriously injured or even killed by Bei Bei's Mother-Child Soul-Chasing Life-Stealing Dart.

"Xiao Meng, it's all up to you now. It's your turn. Give it your all for the glory of the academy." The teacher in charge took a deep breath and said after seeing that Mika had also been defeated.

A strange light flashed in Meng Hongchen's eyes, and she nodded slightly. "Don't worry, teacher. Although I can't turn the tide, I won't let Shrek continue to be so smug."

"Okay. Thank you." The teacher in charge bowed slightly to Meng Hongchen.

"Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, fourth contestant, Meng Hongchen, enters the stage."

Meng Hongchen slowly walked onto the competition stage. She was about the same age as Jiang Nannan and looked just as good. She had the same white hair and blue eyes as Ji Lin. Compared to Xiao Hongchen, she and Ji Lin looked more like siblings.

She is the fourth member of the Sun and Moon team to appear in today's individual elimination rounds. After her, the only remaining members are Xiao Xiafeng, a level 5 Soul Master of the Food type, Captain Ma Rulong, and her brother Xiao Hongchen.

In a one-on-one situation at this stage, it should be the Soul Master suppressing the Soul Master, but all the Soul Masters at Shrek Academy are abnormal and have problems.

"The match begins!" With the referee, Heavenly Fiend Douluo, shouting this, the match commenced!

With a low shout, Bei Bei slid forward, charging towards his opponent at top speed. Having already achieved his basic objective with the two victories he had just won, he even exceeded it. However, he also wanted to deplete Meng Hongchen's strength as much as possible, thus preparing for Ling Luochen's upcoming battle.

When Ji Lin saw that Meng Hongchen was the one from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, he knew that Bei Bei and Ling Luochen, who was going to take the stage next, were doomed.
