Douluo Continent: I got the Sharingan at the start!

Immediately afterwards, a deluge of lightning swept over Xiao Ping.

"What kind of soul tool is this?"

The referee was also taken aback. With his nearly 100 years of experience with soul tools, he couldn't recognize what kind of soul tool He Caitou was using. This meant that the soul tool He Caitou was using was self-created.

Each bolt of lightning fired from that strange heavy cannon was as thick as an arm. What was most terrifying was that it would explode immediately after traveling a certain distance, turning into even more bolts of lightning.

In an instant, the eighteen bolts of lightning transformed into a giant net of lightning, covering the oncoming opponent.

The area covered was so large that even with Xiao Ping's extremely agile movements, he had no way to dodge it.

He Caitou's expression was calm at this moment, with a hint of naivety in his calmness.

But the soul tool in his hand was anything but simple and honest.

Xiao Ping was also startled by this unheard-of soul tool. He pointed his spear forward, and all his armor lit up, with rays of light converging into a pure white shield that protected him.

He Caitou's pupils visibly contracted as he activated his Level 7 Soul Guidance Shield.

This is actually a level seven soul-guided shield.

With Xiao Ping's cultivation level of only five rings, it was clearly impossible for him to possess such a powerful ability as a level seven soul guide shield.

This can only be due to the unique nature of the soul tool itself, which allows him to use it.

It likely utilizes the Soul Guidance Iso-Resonance Technology to fuse the energy of multiple Soul Guidance Shields of the same attribute, and then unleash a powerful force.

Only then can it generate a defensive power of up to level seven. Level seven, that's the level of a Soul Saint.

Of course, this is also because Xiao Ping is a melee soul master.

If it were a traditional soul master like He Caitou, even if he possessed such a resonance shield, he wouldn't be able to use it because it consumes too much soul power, and wearing it would make it difficult to use other soul tools.

This is because this isotopic resonance technology must be consistent with the soul power fluctuations of different parts of the body.

There's no way to replace it with another soul tool.

As soon as Xiao Ping released his level seven soul guide shield, he shot out like an arrow, no longer dodging the lightning, and rushed straight towards He Caitou.

The level seven soul-guided shield was indeed powerful, forcefully deflecting the bolts of lightning without slowing down, and it looked like it was about to reach He Caitou.

He Caitou had even seen the intense murderous aura in Xiao Ping's eyes.

The referee on the ground had also taken to the air, ready to end the competition at any moment.

A violent roar suddenly erupted between He Caitou and Xiao Ping.

Xiao Ping, who had released a level seven soul-guided shield, was blasted backward like a cannonball.

The level seven soul-guided shield shattered instantly. If he hadn't immediately released his invincible shield, the lightning that was constantly erupting in the air would have torn him to shreds.

He Caitou remained suspended there, as if he had never moved, and a cannon muzzle the size of a bowl on his chest was slowly closing.

There was a faint glimmer of light.

The soul-guided cannon on his shoulder transformed once again into a slender, golden-red barrel, three meters long but only as thick as an arm, which appeared on his shoulder.

With the scope in front of him, he held the cannon barrel with both hands and aimed at Xiao Ping in the distance.

A large, burning cigar had somehow appeared between his lips, wisps of smoke rising from it, perfectly complementing his imposing physique and making him appear incomparably fierce.

As soon as the golden-red cannon was fired, Xiao Hongchen immediately jumped up from his seat at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

"A level 7 piercing cannon. How...how could he possibly use a level 7 piercing cannon?"

The Piercing Cannon is the most powerful single-target destructive type of soul-guided cannon.

To be precise, it should be called a soul-guided ray.

It is called a cannon because of its great power. Generally speaking, only a very few soul masters will use this kind of piercing cannon. It requires aiming and consumes a lot of soul power.

However, its attack range is extremely long.

It is specifically designed for tackling difficult problems.

The biggest drawback of the piercing cannon is that it cannot lock on or track targets.

However, its power was extremely terrifying. Even with Xiao Ping's cultivation level, his invincible shield could not withstand the attack of the piercing cannon.

The best way to deal with a piercing cannon is to dodge.

Use its inability to lock on to dodge.

But at this moment, Xiao Ping, who had just been blasted away by He Caitou using some unknown method, had crashed into the protective shield of the opposite arena and bounced back.

The invincible shield can only protect him, but it can't help him absorb the impact.

Will he be able to react in time and dodge?

Nobody knows the answer.

Therefore, the referee hesitated in mid-air.

If he stops He Caitou at this moment, it would mean that he has declared He Caitou's victory.

If Xiao Ping can dodge He Caitou's attack, then he will still have a chance.

Although the referee did not believe that Xiao Ping could defeat He Caitou, who had already demonstrated the strength of a level seven Soul Master.

But this is only the first match. How can the Sun and Moon team be willing to give up this match?

He Caitou naturally didn't care about the referee's thoughts. Aiming and firing was as simple as that for him.

The moment the piercing cannon fired, half of the large cigar that He Caitou was holding was suddenly sucked away, and the ash scattered everywhere.

A golden-red streak, only as thick as a finger, had already pierced the sky and was heading straight for the referee.

The immense pressure brought about a life-threatening situation.

Although Xiao Ping was still dazed from the impact, the sudden chill that made his hair stand on end brought him back to his senses instantly.

There wasn't enough time to see with our eyes, nor enough time to make a more accurate judgment.

He immediately activated his soul-guided thrusters, attempting to fly diagonally to evade.

However, at that very moment, a strong feeling of numbness suddenly spread throughout my body.

He subconsciously looked down and saw that, at some point, a fine needle, shimmering with a blue-purple light, had appeared on his chest.

That intense feeling of numbness comes from this!

"What is this?" Just a moment before the invincible shield was activated, the seventh-level soul guide shield was blasted open, and the thing that pinned me to the ground?

However, even if it is just a needle, it should be considered as a fixed soul tool!

This was Xiao Ping's last thought.

Then he saw a cluster of golden-red light instantly engulf the thin needle, obliterating it, and he himself clearly felt that he had lost something.

A small hole, about the thickness of a thumb, appeared simultaneously at the location of the invincible shield and Xiao Ping's heart.

His gaze was completely vacant.

It was full of incredible things.

He never imagined that he would die like this.

A cold glint flashed in He Caitou's eyes, but he quickly regained his憨厚 (honest and simple) demeanor. He sheathed the heavy cannon and slowly descended from the sky.

The referee caught Xiao Ping as he fell from the sky immediately.

But he immediately realized that Xiao Ping was beyond saving; his heart had been pierced, so how could he possibly be saved?

"He, he..." Xiao Ping's eyes were filled with resentment, but at this moment, he could no longer utter any other words.

He coughed up a mouthful of blood and died instantly.

"You killed him!" The referee looked at He Caitou with a mixture of shock and anger.

He Caitou smiled seemingly honestly and said, "I'm sorry, I couldn't stop myself, and you're the referee, you didn't stop me, I thought he could block it."

The referee stared wide-eyed, but had nothing to say.

Scene 1: Dead Men.

When the referee announced Xiao Ping's death, the entire audience erupted in uproar.

This is the Sun and Moon Empire, not the former Star Luo Empire.

During the match, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy team, which symbolizes the Sun Moon Empire, was killed by their opponents. How could the people not be furious?

The referee looked rather grim; it's no wonder he was upset after witnessing someone die in the match he was officiating.

However, he faced a difficult choice at the time, and the current outcome only proves that his choice was wrong.

As the match ended, the soul-guided shield outside the arena naturally receded and disappeared.

On the Sun and Moon team's side, Meng Hongchen and Xiao Hongchen went on stage almost simultaneously and rushed over at lightning speed.

If Xiao Ping had used some tricks and with the help of the soul-guided thruster, he might have been able to avoid the center of the explosion zone when facing the piercing cannon.

But just as Xiao Ping was about to put his idea into action, the numbness that came over his body made him unable to move at all.

So, faced with the piercing cannon that was fired, Xiao Ping could only watch helplessly as it pierced through him.

Xiao Hongchen roared in shock and rage, "You dare kill my people!"

He Caitou said innocently, "What's wrong with me going all out to prove my strength?"

"You should go find the referee."

As he spoke, He Caitou took out a baby bottle and began to recover his soul power on the spot. Judging from his appearance, he seemed to think that he had not done anything wrong.

"you"

Xiao Hongchen's pupils were bloodshot, as if they were filled with blood, and he glared fiercely at He Caitou.

Meng Hongchen gently tugged at his hand and said, "Brother, I'll play in the next match."

Xiao Hongchen took a deep breath, his furious expression gradually calming down. Without saying a word, he carried Xiao Ping's corpse and walked off the stage.

Spectator area.

"Boss, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy and Shrek Academy are really fierce rivals. Someone died in the very first match."

Yuan Gungun said in disbelief.

Han Yu's expression was slightly subtle. He didn't know if others had seen it clearly, but he himself had.

Xiao Ping, the contestant from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, clearly had a chance to dodge.

Even if he can't completely dodge, as long as he tries his best to dodge to the side, he can at least save his life.

It won't lead to death.

The fundamental reason he couldn't dodge was that he was hit by a hidden weapon.

That's right, that golden light was a hidden weapon from the Tang Clan.

It likely has a paralyzing effect.

While Xiao Ping was being hit, He Caitou fired a piercing cannon while simultaneously launching a sneak attack with a hidden weapon, causing Xiao Ping to lose consciousness.

That's why they didn't have time to dodge the piercing cannon.

Eliminating a regular member of the Sun and Moon team would undoubtedly weaken the opponent's strength to a great extent, which would be very beneficial to Shrek Academy.

They also knew that their strength was slightly inferior to that of the Sun and Moon Team.

However, for the sake of Shrek Academy's honor, we have no choice but to resort to some underhanded tactics.

Anyway, no one died in this competition.

If anyone's going to cause trouble, it should be the referees, not Shrek Academy.

Xiao Hongchen left, taking Xiao Ping's body with him as he stepped off the stage.

But Meng Hongchen stayed.

Her gaze swept toward the Snow Demon Sect, where Han Yu's lips were also moving slightly, as if she were saying something.

After Han Yu finished speaking, Meng Hongchen's face immediately darkened, but she did not do anything drastic.

Instead, they stood quietly to the side, waiting for the referee to announce the start.

Han Yu smiled slightly. He had just told Meng Hongchen how Xiao Ping had died.

In a normal match, if someone dies, they die.

Even the cold rain won't care.

However, the person who died this time was a member of the Sun and Moon team, specifically a member of Meng Hongchen.

Moreover, he was ambushed by the other party.

Han Yu hated this kind of sneak attack more than anything else in his life.

Since the other party is using this method, Han Yu feels it is necessary to explain it to Meng Hongchen.

So that the other party doesn't not know how the person died.

Besides, given Meng Hongchen's relationship with him, he would definitely side with her.

On the competition stage.

The referee raised his hand, glanced at the two, and said in a deep voice:

"I'll say it again, don't kill them. You must stop when they surrender."

Meng Hongchen's eyebrows furrowed, and she snorted angrily, "You'll regret killing Xiao Ping."

He Caitou smiled sheepishly and said, "I already said it was an accident. There are no eyes in a competition, and I didn't mean to."

After saying that, the two turned and walked away.

Seeing that both of them were in position, the referee suddenly waved his hand downwards, "Begin!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than He Caitou began to move.

Various thick metal cannon barrels were worn directly on his body like armor, which is a typical artillery tactic.

Although Meng Hongse is a Soul Master, she is a melee Soul Master, and her fighting style is more inclined towards that of a Soul Master.

Therefore, He Caitou knew that keeping a distance and preventing the other party from getting close was the best tactic.

Shrek Academy, which was originally known for its outstanding martial spirit cultivation, started using soul tools, while Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, which was known for its outstanding soul master instructors, started using soul master combat techniques.

This scene was somewhat comical.

On the other side, Meng Hongchen had already rushed towards Cai Tou while he was using the artillery tactics.

Several white lights emanated from the six openings behind her, and in an instant, her speed increased dramatically.

This is an enhanced soul-guided propulsion device specially made for her by Jing Hongchen. Ordinary soul-guided propulsion devices only have two or four openings.

However, Meng Hongchen's version has a total of six.

Its level is also that of a level seven soul tool.

As she charged forward, seven spirit rings burst forth from beneath her feet, instantly filling the arena with the aura of a Soul Saint.
