Douluo: Legend of the Holy Land

Chapter 121 Fire Dance's Perseverance

"The match begins!"

As soon as the referee gave the whistle, Huo Wu charged towards Hu Yanshi at full speed, her long and powerful legs giving her a speed that was no less than that of an agility-type Soul Master.

Although the original battle plan was to leverage the advantages of control-type Soul Masters and avoid direct confrontation with the Elephant Armor Sect disciples who excelled in strength and defense, Hu Yanshi on the other side was clearly still in a daze, so Huo Wu immediately chose to strike first.

"Second Soul Skill, Crimson Flame Burst!"

boom!

Startled, Hu Yanshi was about to unleash his defensive soul skill when the explosive flames rushed towards him, instantly blasting him away from the arena.

"Next!"

Huo Wu glanced provocatively at the Elephant Armor Academy's preparation area, her clear voice echoing throughout the arena: "What kind of number one defensive sect is this? They can't even withstand a single punch from me!"

"This crazy girl, when she gets serious, she's actually quite clever!"

Inside the rest area, Xiao Yu saw that Huo Wu hadn't acted according to the original plan, but instead revealed a slight smile.

A plan is a plan, but what plan in this world is truly unchanging? If it is executed rigidly and without flexibility, then Xiao Yu will truly be disappointed.

Ye Lingling smiled and said, "Sister Huowu is provoking the Elephant Armor Sect so much, those big idiots are probably going crazy. When they go on stage later, they will definitely use all their brute force to attack Sister Huowu, and that will completely fall into Sister Huowu's trap."

Xiao Yu smiled slightly, and was about to say a few more words when he suddenly felt a gaze fall on him.

Xiao Yu looked up and saw Qian Renxue, disguised as Xue Qinghe, sitting behind Emperor Xue Ye on the platform, staring at him with a mysterious gaze.

Qian Renxue clearly remembered that when Huo Wu followed her to quell the rebellion more than a year ago, Huo Wu only had a soul power of level 42. The fact that she had increased her soul power by four levels in just one year was clearly not in line with Huo Wu's aptitude.

When Huo Wu used her soul skill to attack, Qian Renxue didn't notice any weakness in her soul power. On the contrary, she felt that the flames Huo Wu unleashed were purer than they had been a year ago. If it weren't for Xiao Yu giving Huo Wu special training, Qian Renxue would have to change her name from now on.

Qian Renxue didn't know why, even though she knew the relationship between Huo Wu and Xiao Yu, and it was perfectly reasonable for him to help her improve her aptitude, she just couldn't suppress the fire of jealousy in her heart.

Is this little vixen jealous?

Noticing Qian Renxue's resentful gaze, Xiao Yu almost instinctively wanted to use his soul power to tease this angelic girl.

Upon seeing Ning Fengzhi watching the battle from the same platform, he immediately focused his attention. Ning Fengzhi was traveling with one of the two Sword Bone Douluos, and he didn't think that this kind of soul power transmission could deceive the perception of a Title Douluo.

Unable to communicate telepathically, Xiao Yu raised an eyebrow at Qian Renxue, confident that she would understand his meaning.

Bastard, bastard!

Qian Renxue truly understood Xiao Yu's meaning. Her teeth were practically clenched, and she cursed Xiao Yu inwardly.

Just as Xiao Yu was feeling smug, he suddenly felt a pain in his waist. It turned out that Ye Lingling had noticed his flirtatious exchange with Qian Renxue and was reaching into his waist with her jade-like hand, turning his skin and flesh around 180 degrees.

While the group was making their own moves, Huo Wu was already facing her second opponent on the arena: Hu Yan Gai, who was at level 37.

The order of appearance for Elephant Armor Academy was simple: from low to high soul power level. After all, with seven identical martial souls and even identical soul skills, there was no way to expect them to have any tactics.

Just as Ye Lingling had analyzed, as soon as Huyan Gai entered the arena, he attacked Huo Wu like a mad dog, showing a strong momentum to crush her in one fell swoop.

Huo Wu snorted and a triumphant smile appeared on her lips. Without even using her soul skills, she relied on her skillful use of soul power to dodge left and right, making Hu Yan Gai, who weighed several hundred pounds, spin around in circles. Finally, taking advantage of his unpreparedness, she kicked him directly off the Soul Battle Platform.

"Off the field, Nine Star Academy has won. Please send out the next player from Elephant Armor Academy."

"Off the field, Nine Star Academy has won. Please send out the next player from Elephant Armor Academy."

The few physically strong but simple-minded team members from Elephant Armor Academy were completely led by the nose by Huo Wu on the arena. Even the two Soul Masters who had broken through to level 40 were toyed with by Huo Wu like children. In particular, the first Soul Master to enter the arena, Hu Yanshan, was the target of Huo Wu's actions. Huo Wu first gathered her soul power and pretended to fight Hu Yanshan head-on, then pretended to be defeated and retreated to the edge of the arena. Finally, when Hu Yanshan made a full-force attack, she suddenly dodged to the side. Hu Yanshan couldn't stop and fell headfirst onto the arena, causing a burst of laughter.

"One against seven!"

"One against seven!"

At this point, the Soul Masters around, who were always eager for trouble, started shouting excitedly.

Hu Yanli walked onto the arena with a gloomy expression, making a different choice from his six teammates. After summoning his martial spirit at the referee's signal, he occupied a corner of the arena and coldly stared at Huo Wu, without blindly launching an attack like his other teammates.

Although Hu Yanli's brain was mostly muscle, as the young sect leader of the Elephant Armor Sect, he still reserved a little space in his brain for thinking. After the first five matches, he finally calmed down.

"Fire Dance!"

Seeing this, Xiao Yu stood up and gestured to Huo Wu with his eyes.

With Xiao Yu's spiritual power, he could clearly sense Huo Wu's condition. Although she seemed to be in complete control in the first six matches, after six consecutive battles, even though she deliberately conserved her soul power, she now only had about half left.

Her opponent, Hu Yanli, is the strongest in Elephant Armor Academy. Although his soul power is three levels lower than Huo Wu's, he possesses a head soul bone that is over 30,000 years old, which is enough to make up for the three-level gap. Even if Huo Wu is in her best condition, it will not be easy for her to win.

Seeing Xiao Yu's concerned gaze, Huo Wu felt a warmth in her heart, but her attitude remained unusually firm, and she shook her head at Xiao Yu.

"This girl!"

Seeing this, Xiao Yu smiled wryly and sat down helplessly.

Ye Lingling was also a clever woman, and after a moment's thought, she understood Huo Wu's intention: "Sister Huo Wu wants to vindicate the Blazing Academy!"

Xiao Yu nodded: "Since Blazing Fire Academy failed to advance from the qualifiers, there have been some rumors circulating in Tiandou City. This girl hasn't said anything, but she's actually quite bothered by it. No matter what, in the eyes of outsiders, she is still the daughter of Blazing Fire Academy. If she can defeat a veteran powerhouse like Elephant Armor Academy in one go, she can silence the gossip."

"But Hu Yanli, as the young sect leader of the Celestial Phenomenon Sect, is not to be underestimated, Brother Xiao Yu."

Ye Lingling turned to look at Xiao Yu. Although she didn't say anything, Xiao Yu understood what she didn't say. As the captain, Xiao Yu could directly concede defeat on behalf of the team, so that Huo Wu could be replaced.

"As teammates and friends, we should trust her!"

Xiao Yu gently patted Ye Lingling's hand. Of course, he had the right to do so, but what about Huo Wu's self-esteem?
