Douluo: Legend of the Holy Land

Chapter 179 The Last Champion

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A thick pillar of lightning crashed down, followed by a series of thunderous explosions. Each booming sound caused the space around the area to tremble slightly.

After a while, Eden estimated that the attack was almost over and withdrew his strength.

The power of thunder gradually dissipated, revealing the figures of Xie Yue and Hu Liena.

At this moment, Hu Liena and Xie Yue had already broken their spirit fusion state and collapsed to the side, completely losing their ability to fight.

"The competition is over, and the winner is Nine Star Academy!"

Although extremely unwilling, the referee still had to grit his teeth and announce the result under the watchful eyes of everyone!

The Spirit Hall Academy has lost!

A sudden silence fell over the surroundings, after all, this was the Spirit Hall's home ground, and eight out of ten Soul Masters watching the battle were loyal to the Spirit Hall.

The platinum bishops and cardinals could hardly believe their eyes. From the start to the end of the match, the Spirit Hall Academy team was almost completely suppressed by the Nine Star Academy. The match ended in a complete defeat.

Nine Star Academy, or the Nine Star Palace behind the academy, what kind of terrifying foundation do they possess that allows them to cultivate such a powerful team!

Just when everyone was at a loss, Ning Fengzhi suddenly stood up and led the applause. Although he was also wary of the Nine Star Palace, he was even more willing to undermine the Spirit Hall.

Led by Ning Fengzhi, the area outside the arena suddenly became lively, with many Soul Masters echoing the Spirit Hall's call, clapping their hands loudly to celebrate Nine Star Academy's victory.

Bibi Dong glanced at Ning Fengzhi without showing any emotion, slowly stood up, and clapped lightly a few times. As the nominal leader of the Spirit Hall, even if she was dissatisfied, she wouldn't explode at this time; she still had that much self-control.

At most, she would keep this debt in her heart, and when the time was right to launch her Soul Hunting Plan in the future, she would definitely wipe out the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and eradicate the inheritance of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda from its roots.

Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo were not so good-tempered. They stood up and stared at Ning Fengzhi with eyes that looked like they wanted to kill him.

After a few perfunctory claps, Bibi Dong waved her hand lightly, signaling everyone to quiet down, before announcing, "The final champion of this year's Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament is Nine Star Academy. Congratulations to you, talented young soul masters."

"It's my turn to go on stage!"

Xiao Yu patted Qian Renxue, who was leaning against him, and said with a mischievous grin, "Want to come up on stage with me? I guarantee you'll drive her crazy!"

Qian Renxue quickly sat up straight, waved her hand, and said, "No, you might really infuriate that old woman, but I reckon my grandfather would be infuriated too!"

"Then I'll go!"

Xiao Yu stood up and led the other team members sitting in the rest area to the ring. They lined up with Eden and the other team members who were going to take the stage, enjoying the honor of being champions and the attention of everyone.

At this time, Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and the others had barely recovered after receiving brief treatment from the Spirit Hall's healing spirit masters. After all, Nine Star Academy hadn't gone all out, and this was the Spirit Hall's home ground. If someone had really died, the square would probably have been even more lively than when Tang Hao attacked yesterday.

The group of people who had recovered all looked at Xiao Yu and his companions with hatred. Xiao Yu noticed their gazes, but he didn't care. They were not worthy of his attention, since they hadn't even broken through to the Soul Saint level by the time the Battle of Jialing Pass ended in the original story.

Bibi Dong glanced at Xiao Yu and his group on the stage with a complicated expression, let out a soft breath, and waved her hand.

A graceful young woman walked over carrying a brocade tray. The tray emitted three different colors of light and released a gentle soul power. Inside were the three soul bones that the Spirit Hall had given as a reward to the champion.

Bibi Dong glanced at the three soul bones with some reluctance, while the three members of the Golden Generation below the stage almost popped their eyes out—those were the soul bones that should have belonged to them!

All around, countless greedy eyes were either fixed on the three soul bones or on the Nine Stars Team.

There is never a shortage of greedy fools in this world. The Spirit Hall is renowned, but the Nine Star Hall's reputation has only just begun. Many lone spirit masters or spirit masters from small sects are unaware of their strength. As a result, quite a few fearless fools have set their sights on Xiao Yu and his group.

Xiao Yu was somewhat helpless. To be honest, of the three soul bones, only the one with the wisdom-condensed skull could barely catch his eye. As for the two bones, the left leg bone of the Swift Wind Chaser and the right arm bone of the Explosive Burning Flame, they were only 30,000 years old. Xiao Yu, who was rich, really didn't care for them. Even if he gave them to his teammates, he would have to think twice.

The left leg bone of the Swift Wind Chaser is best suited for agility-type Soul Masters. With Rong Dou and Yuna's aptitude, a 30,000-year-old Soul Bone is still a bit lacking. On the other hand, Xie Wu has worked hard for many years and contributed a lot to this Soul Master Competition. This right leg bone is more suitable as a reward for his years of hard work.

As for the right arm bone of the Exploding Burning Flame, fire-attribute soul masters can absorb it without any conflict. With Yi Hui and Cang Mo's talents, a full set of 100,000-year soul bone sets wouldn't be an exaggeration. As for Huo Wu, as his woman, Xiao Yu also plans to get her a high-level soul bone set. Moreover, he previously prepared a 100,000-year Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone for Ye Lingling. If he were to give Huo Wu a meager 30,000-year soul bone, given her petty nature, she'd probably throw a tantrum on the spot.

Just then, the cardinal, acting as the referee, loudly interrupted Xiao Yu's thoughts: "Please have the representative of Nine Star Academy come forward to receive the champion's reward."

Xiao Yu quickly came to his senses and did not decline with his teammates. As the captain and the team's strongest fighter, it was no problem for him to go on stage to receive the championship award.

Xiao Yu remained calm, showing no sign of tension or panic. He walked steadily to Bibi Dong, looking up at the woman who was nominally the most noble woman on the entire continent, his mother-in-law, and the strongest villain in the original story.

Bibi Dong also looked at Xiao Yu with a complicated gaze. With her cultivation level, she could naturally see that Qian Renxue was no longer a virgin and that Xiao Yu had effectively become her son-in-law.

Taking a deep breath, Bibi Dong said, "I must admit, you are the most outstanding young person I have ever seen. Even she cannot compare to you. If you are willing to bring the Nine Star Palace to join the Spirit Hall, I can promise you that in the future, the position of Pope of the Spirit Hall will belong to you!"
