Douluo: Legend of the Holy Land

Chapter 156 Golden Flood Dragon VS Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex

"The match begins!"

With the referee's right hand suddenly swinging down, the match between Nine Star Academy and Heaven Dou Royal Academy officially began.

The formations of both teams changed immediately.

On the Tian Dou Royal Academy side, standing at the forefront were the brothers Shi Mo and Shi Mo. The moment the referee announced the start of the match, they summoned their Xuanwu Turtle Martial Souls. Earthy yellow light shone, and a huge dark yellow turtle shell appeared on their backs and chests at the same time.

"A defensive formation? How long can two mere Soul Masters hold out?"

Xiao Yu sneered disdainfully, unleashing his unique Soul Emperor aura towards the Royal Fighting Team. It directly overwhelmed the defenses of the two Xuanwu Turtle Soul Masters and affected every member of the Royal Fighting Team.

Ning Li, the weakest support-type Soul Master, stumbled and almost fell to the ground.

Yu Tianheng was also overwhelmed by this aura and could hardly breathe. He roared and a bright blue light burst out from between his eyebrows, quickly spreading to his entire body. Streaks of blue-purple electricity coiled around him like small snakes, which barely offset the soul pressure released by Xiao Yu.

Looking at his teammates beside him, who were sweating profusely and swaying under Xiao Yu's pressure, Yu Tianheng smiled bitterly. If it weren't for the fact that the Royal Fighting Team was the seed team of the Heavenly Dou Empire and the face of the Heavenly Dou Empire, and that he couldn't choose to admit defeat directly in front of everyone, he really didn't want to fight Xiao Yu.

"attack!"

With a loud shout, Xiao Yu transformed into a streak of light and shot out, followed closely by Cang Mo, Rong Dou, Huo Wu, and the others. All seven of them exuded a surging fighting spirit as they charged towards the Royal Fighting Team.

"Graphite, millstone, defense; Ning Li, all-around support!"

As Yu Tianheng spoke, his arms rapidly expanded, transforming into two dragon claws, his arms covered in bluish-purple scales.

Although Yu Tianheng knew he couldn't win, he didn't want his team to end up being wiped out instantly. He wanted them to at least survive the first round of attacks from Nine Star Academy, so they could save face.

"The seven treasures are named: first, strength; second, speed; and third, spirit!"

Under Yu Tianheng's command, Ning Li's Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda unleashed its full power, releasing three different beams of light from the glazed pagoda that shot straight into the sky, splitting apart in mid-air and landing on Yu Tianheng and the other six.

Ning Li's aptitude was not outstanding among Ning Fengzhi's sons. Not only was his soul power weak, but he was also only at level 35 at the age of over 20. His comprehension ability was also extremely poor, and he had not even fully mastered the Three Apertures Control Heart.

He unleashed three support skills on his six teammates at the same time. By the time he finished using his soul skills, Ning Li was exhausted. Without saying a word, he ran off the stage.

Ning Li is not the naive Ning Rongrong. She was manipulated by Yu Xiaogang, Flander, Tang San and others, and almost regarded Shrek Academy as her own home, valuing it more than the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Ning Li knew very well that his joining the Royal Fighting Team was just a manifestation of the close cooperation between the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Heavenly Fighting Royal Family. He had no reason to risk his life for the Royal Fighting Team. He had done all he could, and there was no point in staying on the stage any longer.

"Third Soul Skill, Gale Shadow Breaker!"

Just as Ning Li jumped off the stage, Xiao Yu had already attacked the Royal Fighting Team. His third spirit ring shone brightly, and he was like a black meteor, attacking Shi Mo, who was holding a shield, at an extremely fast speed.

boom!

With a loud crash, Graphite flew backward like a kite with a broken string, hitting Ning Li squarely as she jumped off the stage.

"what!"

The scream came from Ning Li. Shi Mo had already fainted from the heavy blow, and his burly body pressed down on Ning Li, the pampered young master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, causing him to foam at the mouth and scream incessantly.

"Sect Leader Ning, your son is truly remarkable."

Beside Ning Fengzhi was Yue Guan, the Elder of the Spirit Hall, who had also come to watch the battle. He had a mocking expression on his face and his eyes were full of sarcasm as he looked at Ning Fengzhi.

Ning Fengzhi's expression was somewhat unpleasant. He didn't care much about Ning Li because of his aptitude, but he was still his son after all. Especially since he had just revealed his martial spirit on the stage, anyone with a discerning eye could easily find out that he was his son. Making a fool of himself in public would ultimately only make Ning Fengzhi lose face.

For a moment, Ning Fengzhi's gaze toward Xiao Yu became somewhat unfriendly. He suspected that Xiao Yu had done this on purpose, just to vent his resentment at Xiao Yu's repeated assistance to the Haotian Sect.

"Fourth Soul Skill, Lion's Critical Strike!"

Cang Mo's black ten-thousand-year soul ring lit up, and he roared like a lion, spewing out flames, his target being Shi Mo, another defensive soul master who was blocking the front of the Royal Fighting Team.

Shi Mo let out a miserable scream and followed in his brother's footsteps, tumbling several times in the square before foaming at the mouth and falling unconscious.

After breaking through the Royal Fighting Team's defenses, Io, who transformed into a gray wolf using his second soul skill, was the first to rush into the crowd. He raised his sharp wolf claws and attacked Osro, the agility-type soul master of the Royal Fighting Team with the Black Panther martial soul.

Oslo's expression changed. He couldn't break through the Shi brothers' defenses even with his full strength, but he didn't expect them to be no different from fragile skins in front of the Nine Star Academy. He quickly lit up his spirit rings and dodged to the side.

But Io was too fast. He hadn't gone more than a few steps before Io caught up with him and slammed his sharp wolf claws into his chest. Blood spurted out, and he screamed before collapsing to the ground.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Yu Feng hurriedly used his soul skill to fly into the sky. However, he had just risen to halfway when he heard a sound of wind breaking. When he looked up, he saw a large, dark foot. It turned out that Xie Wu had gotten ahead of him and launched an attack while ascending into the sky.

Caught off guard, Yu Feng was hit by Xie Wu's flying kick and fell at an even faster speed, eventually crashing into the arena and creating a deep crater.

Inside the deep pit, Yu Feng was foaming at the mouth and his eyes were rolled back; he had clearly lost consciousness.

Huo Wu then approached Xue Ying, who was also a control-type Soul Master. This girl, who had a strong sense of right and wrong, had not forgotten that before the competition, she and Yu Tianheng had run up to them and tried to provoke Dugu Yan into making a move so that they would be disqualified from the competition. Huo Wu slapped her several times, making Xue Ying see stars.

Before Xueying could recover, Huowu used her third soul skill, Fire Resistance Ring, to send the royal princess, who was still spinning in place, off the stage.

"Yu Tianheng, now you're all that's left!"

Dugu Yan stood before Yu Tianheng, her Golden Flood Dragon Martial Soul possessing her, with four soul rings—two yellow and two purple—surrounding her. Her overwhelming battle intent surged towards Yu Tianheng like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami crashing down upon him.
