Douluo Continent: Starting with a Heavenly Fire Judgment

Chapter 374 Unbreakable Douluo

The previous referee was disqualified for his blatant bias.

The chief referee was unknown to the others, but Meng Hongchen and Xiao Hongchen did. He was a powerful level nine soul master, but he did not have a good relationship with Jing Hongchen. He was an enshrined member of the Sun Moon Empire's Hall of Worship.

He is skilled in repairing defensive soul tools and is known as the Unbreakable King. His title is Unbreakable Douluo Zheng Zhan.

On the stage, Zheng Zhan's loud voice resounded throughout the arena: "The first match of the second round of the round-robin tournament, Zizaimen versus Mingyuzong. Players from both sides, please enter the waiting area to prepare. Players participating in the first match of the individual elimination tournament may go directly to the stage."

Both sides entered the waiting area simultaneously under the leadership of their respective captains. Compared to the solemn and serious atmosphere of Mingyu Sect, Ji Lin's side was much more relaxed. Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao were whispering to each other, and Nan Qiuqiu was also clinging to Ye Guyi.

Soon, both sides entered their respective waiting areas, where there were no shelters from the rain, so everyone had to use umbrellas.

Wang Dong'er lightly touched the ground with her toes and floated onto the competition stage.

If Ji Lin, Ye Guyi, or Gu Yuena take the field in the later battles, it will be difficult for Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao to participate in the matches, unless it is a team battle. Therefore, Ji Lin has arranged for them to participate in the earlier matches as much as possible. After all, they have already come all this way, and they can't just watch from the audience like they did in the previous year!

When Ji Lin and his group appeared, it was indeed too much of a bullying move.

As soon as Wang Dong'er stepped onto the stage, the spectators watching from afar erupted in a cacophony of noise, some stirring up trouble, others booing, and so on.

It's obvious that many people in the Sun Moon Empire dislike Wang Dong'er, who became famous by stepping on the Sun Moon team, even though she is indeed very beautiful.

On Mingyu Sect's side, a short and wiry young man came up. He was neither fat nor thin, but his height was less than 1.6 meters.

His movements were very skillful, but also seemed somewhat sleazy.

The two sides soon met in the center of the playing area.

Zheng Zhan looked at each other. Unlike the other referees, he seemed to be doing this on purpose to remember the participating players. He said in a deep voice, "Both sides state their names."

"Zizai Gate, Wang Dong'er."

"Mingyu Sect, Youchen."

Zheng Zhan nodded and said, "You all know the rules of the competition, so I won't go into detail. Finally, if anyone intentionally kills someone, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

"Understood," Wang Dong'er and You Chen replied.

Ji Lin had already said that they were there to compete, not to kill. They should show mercy if possible and there was no need to make enemies for their sect. Did they really think that if they killed their opponents in the competition, their sect members and relatives would not seek revenge? How could that be possible!

If Wang Dong'er and the others were mistakenly killed during the competition, Ji Lin would not react during the competition, but after the competition, this grudge would definitely be avenged and it would be impossible to pretend that it never happened.

Everyone has close friends and relatives; how could someone kill someone and get away with nothing?

Of course, the Holy Spirit Cult is an exception. If you encounter them, kill them if you can. Evil Soul Masters are different from ordinary sect disciples, so you don't need to worry about them.

As enemies, it's impossible for Ji Lin to show mercy just because of the titled Douluo of the Holy Spirit Church. Ji Lin doesn't believe that the Holy Spirit Church will let Ye Guyi leave easily after she reveals her Holy Angel Martial Soul.

Wang Dong'er had been observing her opponent ever since she stepped onto the stage. She could clearly sense the hostility in her opponent's eyes. Undoubtedly, this hostility stemmed from the result of the match against the Sun and Moon team. After all, Mingyu Sect also came from Mingdu, so it was normal for them to be hostile towards Wang Dong'er, who had defeated the Sun and Moon team.

But so what?

Wang Dong'er curled her lip and gave You Chen a provocative look. She was much taller than You Chen, giving her a condescending air.

You Chen gave her a cold glance, then turned and walked away towards the other side of the competition stage.

Wang Dong'er also turned and left. Both sides unleashed their power, and after a few leaps, they arrived at the edge of the arena, ready for battle.

Zheng Zhan raised his right hand high, and seeing that both sides were ready, he suddenly waved his hand downwards, "The match begins!"

Both of them moved almost at the same time his arm fell.

Wang Dong'er touched the ground with her toes and floated forward lightly. The wings of the Goddess of Light Butterfly opened behind her as dazzling soul rings rose one after another, and a faint golden light instantly enveloped her entire body.

On the other side, You Chen raised his hands to his sides, and two beams of light flashed, revealing a spike-like weapon in each hand. At the same time, two yellow and three purple spirit rings rose from his body.

It wasn't the optimal soul ring combination, so he obviously didn't benefit from the Holy Mark. After all, Mingyu Sect was a sect of the Sun Moon Empire, and the Sun Moon Empire had no channels to sell Holy Marks. Holy Marks smuggled from the other three countries were extremely rare, and it wasn't his turn to get one.

Of course, Mingyu Sect is a sect of Soul Masters, so it doesn't matter if their Soul Ring ratio is a little off, since they don't rely on Soul Skills to fight.

Wang Dong'er did not underestimate her opponent because of their spirit ring configuration.

As You Chen's spirit ring appeared, it suddenly seemed somewhat ethereal, leaving a trail of afterimages behind him. He charged forward, almost instantly covering a distance of tens of meters. Without using any spirit-guided propulsion, he arrived in front of Wang Dong'er at incredible speed. His two sharp spikes flashed horizontally and vertically, forming a cross, and swept towards Wang Dong'er.

Wang Dong'er was taken aback. Such speed! He wasn't a Soul Master who focused on enhancing Soul Power, but rather a Battle Soul Master specializing in Agility Attack.

Wang Dong'er also has rich combat experience. After all, she didn't just hang around in the Soul Arena of Shrek Academy for nothing. She has fought against agility-type Soul Masters who are even faster in Shrek Academy.

At least Chu Qingtian is much faster than You Chen.

Her surprise stemmed only from the fact that the other party was not an ordinary Soul Master.

Wang Dong'er touched the ground with her toes and began to spin as if she were dancing. The blue wings behind her transformed into two huge guillotines, slashing at the spikes in her opponent's hand that were clearly soul tools.

"Ding, ding." Two crisp sounds rang out. Two golden halos could be clearly seen spreading out in the air. Immediately afterwards, Wang Dong'er's speed suddenly increased, and with a flash of movement, she calmly dodged You Chen's piercing attack.

As a referee who was a level nine soul master, Zheng Zhan clearly saw that two small holes had been pierced on Wang Dong'er's butterfly wings. Obviously, Wang Dong'er had suffered a slight loss in the collision just now. She had underestimated the soul tool in You Chen's hand.

"Such powerful attack! He probably only has this pair of spikes among all his soul tools. This is true agility-based attack." Zheng Zhan nodded slightly, admiring this Mingyu Sect member who was developing towards the ultimate.

Agility-based Soul Masters are notoriously weak in attack power, but a good Soul Tool can change that. It is only natural that traditional Soul Masters who cannot accept Soul Tools are eliminated by the times.

Any Soul Master who wants to become a strong one must first fully demonstrate their greatest strengths. Only in this way can they stand out and become stronger and stronger.

Wang Dong'er was also startled. This was the first time her martial soul had been injured. She had lost before in the Shrek Academy's inner court fighting arena, at least Wang Qiu'er could beat her up, but no one had ever been able to hurt her martial soul.

Whether it's a beast spirit or a weapon spirit, the spirit itself is like a part of the spirit master's body. Once the spirit is injured, the spirit master will definitely be affected. At this moment, the spirit power in Wang Dong'er's body became slightly chaotic.

Wang Dong'er secretly admired them; none of the teams that made it to the round-robin stage were easy!

Even the Earth Dragon Gate, which ostensibly advanced through luck, boasts a lineup of all Soul Kings. If this were the previous tournament, they could have at least made it into the top eight.

You Chen's speed was indeed very fast. In the instant Wang Dong'er dodged, his third soul ring suddenly lit up. Then, it was as if he split into seven parts. The afterimages that had been dragged out due to the high speed became real. His figure split into seven parts and surrounded Wang Dong'er at the same time.

Because of the speed, Wang Dong'er didn't have time to dodge and was immediately surrounded.

However, Wang Dong'er was a Soul Emperor after all, and speed alone was not enough for her. Her fourth soul ring lit up, and a golden six-pointed star array spread out from the center of her feet.

As her opponents closed in, Wang Dong'er stood there without moving, silently closing her eyes and listening intently to something. At the same time, she clasped her hands together in front of her chest, and a ball of light condensed.

Just as the seven figures were about to pounce on Wang Dong'er, they were immediately thrown back as if electrocuted. You Chen's reaction was indeed very fast. At the very moment his seven figures flew backward, a huge beam of light with a diameter of two meters suddenly rose up with Wang Dong'er's body as the center. A six-pointed star array! The attack and control power is extremely strong, but it requires the prediction of the opponent's powerful control and attack skills.

If Ji Lin could use mental detection and mental sharing to cooperate with her, this skill would be almost 100% accurate. Unfortunately, Ji Lin is different from some people; she doesn't like to cheat in competitions, and the Zizai Sect has no need to cheat either. Why would they cheat if they have the ability?

You Chen obviously couldn't maintain those seven figures for long. After the sudden rebound, the seven figures instantly merged into one. Then, he saw a barrage of light blades sweeping towards him.

Wang Dong'er's third soul skill, Butterfly God Slash.

This time, Wang Dong'er did not condense the Butterfly God Slash into one piece. Instead, she allowed it to split into one hundred and eight light blades, which, under Wang Dong'er's control, transformed into a large net and swept directly towards You Chen.

You Chen's figure instantly retreated; at this moment, retreating was the only way for him to dodge.

Despite his high speed and high attack power, he is very fragile, making him a standard assassin archetype. His greatest strength lies in hiding in the shadows and unleashing a sudden burst of power that can deliver a fatal blow.
