Douluo's Bone Transforms into a Divine Dragon

Chapter 32 Review of the Imperial Struggle (Please add to your favorites, recommend, and vote!)

As Huo Wu finished speaking, the rest of the Blazing Fire Team deflated like punctured balloons, their once high fighting spirit dimming even the flames burning on their bodies.

However, they knew that when Dugu Yan's poisonous fog became uncontrollable, they were already at a disadvantage. In addition, Gu Xuan, a prodigy who, although only level 33, was no weaker than their vice-captain Huo Wushuang, meant they had little chance of winning.

If Huo Lie and Huo Jun could defeat Yu Feng and then threaten Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling, their chances of winning would be very high. However, they never expected that Shi Mo and Shi Mo, these two defensive-type soul masters, would also have such outstanding combat power.

Ultimately, the research on the Royal Fighting Team is not comprehensive enough. Although there is information, it is only a partial introduction.

After Huo Wu conceded defeat, Gu Xuan stopped using his third soul skill and silently withdrew his martial soul.

Although Huo Wushuang was unwilling, he had already been poisoned and was forced to give up his offensive. However, he did not withdraw his martial soul; he would rely on his soul power to resist the invasion of the Azure Scale Purple Poison.

After the rest of the Blazing Fire Team withdrew their Martial Souls, the members of the Royal Fighting Team also withdrew theirs.

Upon seeing this, the host announced, "Royal Fighting Team defeats Blazing Fire Team! Congratulations to Royal Fighting Team on their fifth consecutive victory!"

Prior to this, the Royal Fighting team had also achieved a four-game winning streak; otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to rank as the Blazing Fire team with a six-game winning streak.

Some spectators in the stands were cursing and swearing, while others were beaming with joy, clearly because they had placed bets on different teams.

However, the Blazing Fire team has only been here for a few months, and their fan base is not as large as that of the Royal Fighting team, so most of the crowd is cheering.

At this moment, Gu Xuan's voice rang out calmly: "Sister Yan, let's detoxify these two first."

Gu Xuan then looked at Huo Wu and asked, "You should be from Blazing Fire Academy, right?"

Although Huo Wu was annoyed by her defeat to the Royal Fighting Team, the other team was very friendly and offered to detoxify Huo Wushuang and Huo Chui, so she couldn't show any displeasure.

Huo Wu replied nonchalantly, "That's right, but don't worry, we'll definitely be victorious next time."

Gu Xuan chuckled upon hearing this, a warm smile appearing on his handsome face, making it difficult for Huo Wu to retaliate.

"We'll be here for a long time, and we welcome your challenges anytime!"

Huo Wu was furious when she heard this. Didn't this mean that their Blazing Fire Team was inferior to the Royal Fighting Team?

But at this moment, Huo Wushuang, supporting Huo Chui, had arrived at Huo Wu's side. Huo Wu glanced intently at Gu Xuan, then said, "We'll see!"

Gu Xuan smiled helplessly upon hearing this, shook his head, and said no more. In the original work, Huo Wu was just like that—fiery-tempered, daring to love and hate, and never willing to admit defeat because of her extraordinary talent.

However, Gu Xuan didn't care. On the contrary, he quite admired this kind of girl with personality, because it would be more interesting to conquer her.

Of course, it wasn't that Gu Xuan was interested in her; it was just a simple appreciation of a beautiful woman.

Dugu Yan then approached Gu Xuan, smiling at him, and said softly, "What's wrong? You've taken a fancy to that girl?"

Gu Xuan turned to look at Dugu Yan's smiling face, and a chill ran down his spine from her tone. What did she mean? Was she testing him?

Heh, what test? You're number one in my heart right now.

Gu Xuan smiled slightly and replied, "They're from Blazing Fire Academy. I was just trying to make a good impression, but they don't appreciate it."

As he spoke, Gu Xuan deliberately brought his mouth close to Dugu Yan's ear and whispered, "Sister Yan, next time you poison them, when I ask you to help with the antidote, deliberately don't go. Let them suffer properly!"

Gu Xuan suddenly leaned close to Dugu Yan's ear, making her blush slightly. After hearing Gu Xuan's words, she pouted, rolled her eyes at him, and replied, "Well, you're really wicked!"

Gu Xuan immediately replied, "Oh, this isn't bad at all. It's just that they were arrogant and put on airs even after losing. I'm helping them temper their character on behalf of their elders. This is a good thing."

Dugu Yan rolled her eyes at him and said, "So you're playing the good guy, and I'll drag someone else into being the bad guy!"

As the two spoke, the rest of the Royal Fighting Team left the arena one after another. Yu Tianheng frowned as he watched Dugu Yan and Gu Xuan whispering intimately in each other's ears. Finally, he left the Soul Fighting Arena without saying a word.

Gu Xuan pushed Dugu Yan's back as they walked down from the Soul Battle Arena, saying, "Sister Yan, what are you saying? Those with ability naturally bear more pressure. If I had your strength, I wouldn't need to beg you."

As Gu Xuan pushed her along, Dugu Yan smiled and replied, "Is this how our young master Gu Xuan asks for help? He won't even say 'please'!"

Gu Xuan's expression became somewhat unnatural upon hearing this. Although Dugu Yan did not object to physical contact with him, why was this plot different from what he had imagined?

Shouldn't he be the one to strike a pose, exuding a handsome and charming smile like a protagonist, and then have the girl immediately fawn over him?

Unfortunately, reality wasn't what he imagined. Gu Xuan chuckled and replied, "Of course I'll treat you! It has to be a big meal. Let's go to Doutian Manor and have some fun later!"

Dou Tian Manor is owned by Prince Xue Xing and is the largest aristocratic entertainment venue in Tian Dou City. There is nothing he cannot do there, only things you can't imagine.

That old bastard eats the government's rice, but he does all sorts of dirty work, including all kinds of things that are explicitly forbidden and prohibited!

Everyone criticizes him, but everyone wants to be like him.

Dugu Yan nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this, and with Gu Xuan's half-hearted persuasion, the two returned to the Royal Fighting Team's rest room.

The others had already arrived in the lounge. Qin Ming sat on a single leather sofa, holding a stack of documents in his hand. Clearly, he had recorded their performances during the competition.

After Gu Xuan and Dugu Yan entered the room, they stopped joking and playing around and obediently sat on the sofa waiting for Qin Ming to speak.

"Ahem..." Qin Ming cleared his throat upon seeing Gu Xuan and Dugu Yan return and said, "To be honest, I'm very satisfied with your performance today!"

These were Qin Ming's first words, and upon hearing them, everyone, including Gu Xuan, breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.

Qin Ming continued, "You should first commend Gu Xuan for playing here. He only joined the team three days ago, and he arranged the tactics and commanded the battle in today's Soul Battle. I am very satisfied with Gu Xuan's performance."

Hearing this, everyone secretly gave Gu Xuan a thumbs up. Although Gu Xuan had only joined their team three days ago, he had already earned their trust and respect.

Besides Gu Xuan's own strength and talent, his trust and dedication to others were also key factors. His method of absorbing spirit rings beyond his level was enough to win their hearts.

Gu Xuan dared not take credit and immediately replied, "Teacher Qin, this was achieved through everyone's joint efforts. It has little to do with me. Even without me, whether it was Tianheng and Sister Yan who devised the tactics, the final result would have been the same."

Hearing Gu Xuan's words, Qin Ming nodded slightly, feeling even more satisfied with Gu Xuan. As the saying goes, he was neither arrogant nor impatient, and he was not eager for quick success. He was indeed a promising talent with both ability and temperament.

However, excessive humility is arrogance. Qin Ming said directly, "Gu Xuan, you don't need to be humble. I have a record of how all of you have performed here. In any case, in my opinion, your performance has surpassed theirs."

Hearing this, the others were not jealous at all; instead, they were even more motivated. After all, Gu Xuan was only fifteen years old (again, Gu Xuan was actually twelve years old; this was a fabricated age!!!), and at level thirty-three, his strength already surpassed all of theirs.

Leaving aside Qin Ming, Gu Xuan is now their target to catch up with!

P.S.: Typos will be corrected first and then fixed later.
