Douluo Continent: Starting with a Heavenly Fire Judgment

Chapter 177 Two Beautiful Girls with Ice-White Hair

Huang Jinxu, the Heavenly Fiend Douluo, gently carried Bei Bei's body with his soul power, slowly flying to the Shrek Academy team. Xu Sanshi, his good friend, quickly stepped forward to catch Bei Bei. He noticed that Bei Bei's face was pale, and in just a short while, his breathing had become extremely weak. It seemed as if his life force had been sealed off. Even more frightening was that Bei Bei's skin was turning white, like the white skin of Meng Hongchen, but without her crystalline translucency.

Meng Hongchen slowly walked to the center of the competition stage, her gaze indifferent as she looked at Shrek Academy's team. Only when she glanced at Ji Lin did her eyes flicker. She pointed to Shrek Academy's rest area and said coldly, "Next."

Her voice was cool and aloof, completely different from when she was infatuated.

Wang Dong'er stared at Meng Hongchen in disbelief. Was this aloof, domineering, and goddess-like Meng Hongchen really the same young lady who had blushed and lowered her head in embarrassment when she and Ji Lin teased her? They were completely different people!

Ling Luochen slowly straightened her back. On the Shrek team's side, it was her turn to go on stage third.

Wang Yan suddenly realized and said, "I remember now, her martial soul is the Crimson-Eyed Ice Toad, which is highly poisonous. I've seen information about it in a book."

"Although the Zhu Qing Ice Toad is entirely of the ice attribute, its eyes are of the fire attribute, which is extremely unique. It generates its special cold poison by alternating between its ice and fire abilities."

"Furthermore, this cold poison, like Ma Xiaotao's evil fire, can backfire on its master. If not handled properly, the soul master will die from the cold poison attacking their heart. Therefore, it is as rare as the Evil Fire Phoenix."

"People with this kind of martial spirit are already very rare, and with the backlash of the cold poison, very few can achieve great success in cultivation. But everything has two sides. While the backlash is intense, it also possesses terrifying power, using poison to overcome evil."

Upon hearing Wang Yan's explanation, Xu Sanshi suddenly realized, "So, Bei Bei has been poisoned."

Without a doubt, the white mist released by Meng Hongchen earlier was filled with the deadly poison of the Zhu Qing Ice Toad. Bei Bei, caught off guard, was poisoned and collapsed. Without his control, the Thunder Dragon Head naturally couldn't continue locking onto its opponent. Judging from Meng Hongchen's appearance, his control over the Ice Toad's poison was already masterful, as the Heavenly Fiend Douluo hadn't detected a trace of the poison, and Meng Hongchen himself didn't seem to suffer any backlash from the cold poison.

Upon hearing Wang Yan's introduction, Meng Hongchen glanced at him in surprise. Her Crimson-Eyed Ice Toad martial soul was rare, and few people recognized it, yet she was familiar with all of its advantages and disadvantages. This Wang Yan's knowledge was truly extensive.

The competition continued; the individual elimination rounds could not be interrupted in the slightest. Xiao Xiao and Wang Dong'er both looked worriedly at Ling Luochen's back.

The raindrops became increasingly fine, and undoubtedly, under such rain-covered conditions, Ling Luochen's control over ice elements would be greatly enhanced.

Similarly, rainwater is also the best channel for the spread of Meng Hongchen's toxins, making this environment fair to both of them.

Even with the resistance of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex's top-tier beast spirit, it was poisoned and passed out in just a few breaths, demonstrating the extreme potency of the Crimson-Eyed Ice Toad's toxicity.

Meng Hongchen is not just a simple Soul Master; she is also a Level 5 Soul Master!

Ling Luochen walked calmly onto the competition stage and stood across from the referee. Ling Luochen was the third Shrek Academy member to compete, while Meng Hongchen was the fourth. Moreover, her teammates after her were not at their peak. On the other hand, Ling Luochen was backed by Ji Lin, Wang Qiu'er, Ma Xiaotao, and Dai Yueheng.

The outcome of this individual elimination tournament was already predetermined. The All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament had already ended after the team battle between Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy and Shrek Academy.

Meng Hongchen simply didn't want her academy to lose too badly, so she was going all out to try and defeat as many Shrek Academy students as possible.

The rain drizzled down as the two slowly retreated in the rain. Meng Hongchen remained calm and aloof, almost like a sister to Ling Luochen. Both had white hair, both possessed ice attributes, and even their expressions were equally calm and aloof. The difference between Meng Hongchen and Ling Luochen was that Meng Hongchen only wore this expression during matches, while Ling Luochen always wore this expression.

Ling Luochen slowly retreated to the edge of the competition platform, exhaled slightly, and the raindrops falling around her body drifted away, unable to land on her.

"The match begins."

In that instant, the five spirit rings on Ling Luochen's body began to shine alternately. She released five spirit skills at the same time. It could be clearly seen that from the first hundred-year spirit ring to the last ten-thousand-year spirit ring, the five halos of light alternated and shimmered like ripples.

This requires extremely high skill and a deep understanding of ice properties.

Under normal circumstances, a Soul Master could not release Soul Skills at such a speed, but Ling Luochen did it. For this alone, she is worthy of the name of Shrek Academy's inner court disciple.

As the five spirit rings flashed in succession, the first thing to appear in her hand was naturally the Ice Staff. The staff was raised amidst a shimmering halo, and a crystal-clear ice armor covered her entire body, even completely protecting her mouth and nose. At the same time, an ice prison had already enveloped Meng Hongchen's body, trapping her within. A massive cloud of icy mist erupted instantly from Ling Luochen's center, followed by the spread of the Ice Radiance Ring.

The temperature on the entire competition stage dropped to its lowest point almost instantly.

The frigid icy mist raged and spread rapidly within the protective barrier of the competition arena.

As a regular member of Shrek Academy, Ling Luochen's control over ice elements is already second nature.

This spectacular scene elicited gasps of amazement from the audience.

She didn't know if she would be poisoned, or if she could withstand it, so she went all out from the start to try and take Meng Hongchen away in one fell swoop.

To Ling Luochen's surprise, Meng Hongchen neither dodged nor avoided the attack, but stood still and was hit by several of her soul skills, completely trapped in her ice prison.

Amplified by the Ice Ring, the icy mist not only had an extremely low temperature but also spread at an incredibly rapid pace. In the blink of an eye, it had spread throughout the entire area.

Soon, the ice fog covered the entire competition platform, obscuring everything on it.

Although the audience outside the arena was amazed by Ling Luochen's magnificent performance, they didn't really like Ling Luochen as a Soul Master, because it greatly affected their viewing experience! A blanket of icy mist enveloped everything, making it impossible to see anything.

One minute passed, two minutes passed, five minutes passed, and some spectators outside the arena began to whisper among themselves, when finally the icy mist on the competition stage gradually dissipated...
