Douluo Dragon King: My Strategy System Is a Bit Off

Chapter 9 The Melancholy Young Man

The golden phantom didn't resemble a martial spirit as much as a person, with golden wings spreading out brilliantly behind it.

The face was indistinct, like a dream, seemingly real yet impossible to touch even a fraction of.

A sacred aura emanated from the golden phantom behind them.

The dark element of Wang Jinxi and Zhang Yangzi's Martial Soul Fusion Skill was completely suppressed. If the light element could still be countered by the dark element, then the light element, which carries a sacred aura, is definitely a natural nemesis.

Like a cat catching a mouse.

Offstage, even the usually aloof and cold male god had a glint of surprise in his eyes. He had only ever seen the purity of this sacred power in one person.

But the sacredness of the divine power that Lin Ci is now displaying is in no way inferior to that one.

Even with the huge gap in soul power, Lin Ci's future is almost at a very high level based on this alone.

Wang Jinxi naturally sensed the suppression of the dark attribute by the divine aura emanating from Lin Ci.

Ultimately, the powerful force brought by the Martial Soul Fusion Skill gave him confidence, and the power in his hands became completely uncontrollable, wanting to vent his anger.

The enormous bone dragon claw slammed directly towards Lin Ci.

Just as the bone dragon claw was about to strike, Lin Ci moved. He soared into the sky like a golden meteor, his holy sword radiating brilliant light as he slashed fiercely at the bone dragon claw.

"boom!"

The golden holy light and the dark elements collided at this moment, and an energy storm erupted from the point where the two met.

An energy storm swept outwards from the two of them, causing the clothes of the surrounding audience to flutter wildly. Wang Jinxi's massive body was even blasted away by this force.

His mutated body separated in a black halo, and screams rang out simultaneously from two people.

Wang Jinxi's arm was broken, while Zhang Yangzi was in better condition, only clutching his stomach with a pained expression.

As the golden light slowly dissipated, the boy who had been indifferent from the very beginning still stood there.

In the audience, Zhou Changxi's mouth was so wide open it could fit an egg.

Yun Xiao, standing next to her, felt the same way, her eyes stinging as if she couldn't believe it.

Indeed, to shake a Martial Soul Fusion Technique single-handedly sounds like a fantasy. If they hadn't witnessed it with their own eyes, they wouldn't have believed it.

Of course, even after seeing it with my own eyes, I still couldn't quite believe my eyes.

Before Yun Xiao could react, Zhou Changxi was already jumping up and down excitedly, shouting, "Lin Ci, no, Brother Lin is awesome!!"

The chubby boy who had looked miserable and disdainful of Lin Ci in the dormitory just a few days ago has now become Lin Ci's enthusiastic little brother.

"Dance teacher, aren't your students going a little too far?"

Ye Yingluo then leaped onto the stage, brandishing her fingers and roaring angrily. She was naturally heartbroken for her students; these two talented youngsters had suffered serious injuries.

Unfortunately, Wu Changkong only glanced at him coldly before uttering a single word: "Go."

He then picked up the unconscious Xie Xie with one hand and left with Lin Ci and Gu Yue.

Long Hengxu's face was so dark it looked like it was about to drip water.

He closed his eyes slightly, exhaled deeply, and sighed deeply.

This is a big problem.

In a promotion match, three people were seriously injured. As the referee, I bear the responsibility! This is a teaching accident that hasn't happened in many years.

Wu Changkong carried Xie Xie directly to the infirmary, where a teacher with a healing-type martial soul examined him. Fortunately, it was just a stress fracture—both forearms were broken, and the injuries were quite severe. However, there was nothing else wrong with his body; only his internal organs had suffered some shock, requiring some time to recover.

At this moment, Tang Wulin arrived and first anxiously checked Xie Xie's injuries. Only after confirming that there were no serious problems did he breathe a heavy sigh of relief.

After explaining something to Wu Changkong, he chatted for a bit with Gu Yue, who was sitting next to him with a furrowed brow.

At this moment, the absolute hero of this match was Lin Ci.

He had completely lost the happy mood he had when the game ended, and instead sat blankly on the edge of the bed.

I'm starting to question the meaning of life.

Why...?

He was about to explode; why did his favorability rating drop by another point?

Now only 39 percent remains.

This isn't just one percent of goodwill; it's a hundred million! This is a guarantee for a fulfilling life after we go back.

At this moment, Gu Yue, who was standing to the side, felt a chill run down her spine for some reason and subconsciously turned her head to look.

He met a pair of resentful eyes.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

The girl was slightly taken aback, somewhat confused.

At the entrance of Donghai College.

Because of this prestigious Donghai University, this area has always had a high volume of foot traffic. This has also boosted the development of businesses in the surrounding area, making the food street and various shops bustling with activity.

Not far from the main entrance, a small stall had been set up. On a simple cart sat a coal-fired grill.

The grill was filled with skewers of fragrant grilled fish, the oil sizzling under the charcoal fire, emitting an enticing aroma that drew the attention of many passing students.

"Delicious grilled fish, a true delicacy."

The boy diligently grilling fish in front of the car was none other than Lin Ci, who had just finished his competition yesterday.

However, at this moment, he wore a mask and hat to avoid the smoke from the grilled fish.

He doesn't have a hard life, he just has a hard life.

He came to do his small business today after the competition yesterday. He had no choice; he didn't have much income. He could at least get a few meals at the academy. But this time, he really couldn't afford a single penny. He was so short of money that he could only afford to buy some grilled fish.

Fortunately, back ten thousand years ago, when he was doing strategy quests, he sold fish with a certain overpowered guy surnamed Huo and secretly learned a couple of tricks.

Who would have thought it would be used here?

Lin Ci's grilled fish costs 100 Federal Coins each, which might be considered expensive for ordinary people. But this is at the gate of Donghai Academy, and even if it's not a wealthy family, a family that can afford to support a Soul Master wouldn't complain about 100 Federal Coins being too expensive.

After all, the Federal currency for a single soul in the Spirit Pagoda is an astronomical figure.

Most importantly, Lin Ci's grilled fish was truly exceptional; it was the best dish at Shrek Academy back then.

With his intelligence and marketing skills, a long queue had formed at the entrance of Donghai Academy.

"Don't worry, don't worry, we have them all."

While Lin Ci was busy, a man and a woman emerged from the gate of Donghai Academy not far away.

The pretty young girl looked around, then her eyes lit up as she pointed at the long line in Lin Ci's direction, her eyes sparkling.

"Brother, I want to eat that!"

Give me some?
