A Bite of Douluo Continent

Upon seeing the slightly thin figure emerge from the opposite passage, her expression first turned somewhat strange, then a hint of joy appeared on her face.

It was him! Yan Meiluo!

Yan hope was able to take on three opponents single-handedly, partly due to her own formidable strength, and partly because she had never fought before, making her opponents completely unfamiliar with her and lacking any effective countermeasures.

However, the other Shrek Academy members besides her did not have such an advantage. They had already shown their strength in past battles. Although it is possible that they had not used their trump cards, having an understanding of them made it easier to target them.

Star Luo Royal Academy has always regarded Shrek Academy as its hypothetical enemy, so how could it possibly reveal its full strength before facing such a powerful opponent?

Star Luo Royal Academy also has two players who made a move like Yan hope, one of whom is the fourth player to take the stage at this moment.

Knowing the general effects of Yan Moluo's various soul skills, the contestant who appeared was naturally able to target Yan Moluo accordingly. On the other hand, Yan Moluo was facing a completely unknown opponent.

Based on this alone, the balance of the battle has already begun to tilt in favor of the Star Luo Royal Academy.

Moreover, Yan Molu is an agility-type Soul Master, while the girl named Qi Qing sent by the Star Luo Royal Academy is a control-type Soul Master.

Agility-based attacks vs. control-based attacks – a clear counter!

In this battle, the Star Luo Royal Academy has an extremely high chance of winning!

A smile couldn't help but appear on Qi Qing's face.

Even within the Star Luo Royal Academy, not many people actually believed they could defeat Shrek Academy.

However, if she can showcase her skills and even defeat her opponent, she will undoubtedly be more valued within the Star Luo Royal Academy in the future, which is why she is willing to fight with all her might.

Of the seven members of the Shrek Academy team, Yan Meiluo is the one she is most confident in dealing with.

I never expected to be so lucky.

Then... let's go!

Qi Qing's spirits lifted suddenly, and a burning fighting spirit burst forth in her eyes.

I must win this battle!

Yan Molu glanced at the contestants from Xingluo Royal Academy, her light brown eyes flashing slightly.

What's their trump card?

The female contestant in front of them had never made a move before, and Shrek Academy had absolutely no information about her.

But... so what?

My beauty has faded, but I am invincible among those of the same rank!

Uh…except for Yan hope.

With one hand, he swept the stray hairs from his forehead back, and with the other hand, he took out a headband from his pocket and firmly secured the stray hairs on top of his head to prevent them from obstructing his vision during combat.

Such a gesture before the match caught the referee's attention. The referee glanced at the headband on his forehead and couldn't help but twitch his face slightly.

A pink headband with a cute little pig drawn on it.

Why does this art style look so strange?

Yan Molu seemed to sense something and silently stared at the referee.

What are you looking at? It was a gift from my girlfriend.

You're getting on in years, surely you're still single?

Seriously…

He then silently withdrew his gaze, staring at the ground, lost in thought.

The referee quickly announced the start of the match.

As soon as the referee gave the whistle, Yan Moluo was the first to move.

His movements were extremely abrupt. One moment he was staring at the ground as if in a daze, and the next moment he disappeared from his spot, his figure flashing and appearing dozens of meters away from where he was before.

Yan Molu's light brown pupils resembled deep black holes at this moment. A double-pointed spear, seemingly carved from obsidian, had appeared in her hand. The spear became ethereal from time to time, like a spirit wandering in the void.

Martial Soul: Shadow Spear!

Five spirit rings danced and circled on the gun barrel, with the second spirit ring slowly fading from bright to dim at this moment.

Clearly, Yan Molu's ability to flash dozens of meters just now originated from her second soul skill.

The Shadow Chase!

Yan Molu's second soul skill had already worked, and the distance between him and Qi Qing was reduced to ten meters in an instant.

Ten meters is practically no distance for agility-based Soul Masters.

Yan Molu's third spirit ring shone brightly, and she was about to make her move when Qi Qing moved at that moment.

Five spirit rings slowly appeared behind Qi Qing, and a music box-shaped weapon spirit appeared in her hand.

As Yan Moluo's third spirit ring lit up, Qi Qing's fourth spirit ring lit up almost simultaneously. In the next instant, a faint light flew out of the music box and landed on Yan Moluo's third spirit ring.

A strange musical note pattern suddenly appeared on his already lit third spirit ring, and then slowly dimmed.

Eight Tones - Rest!

What kind of soul skill is this?

Yan Molu's expression changed instantly. At this moment, he had temporarily lost the connection with his third soul ring and could not use his third soul skill.

However, Yan Molu reacted extremely quickly, and her fourth soul skill lit up again. She and her spear became one, transforming into a dark lightning bolt that suddenly stabbed towards Qi Qing.

Extremely powerful soul skills are often accompanied by obvious flaws.

He didn't believe that Qi Qing's fourth soul skill could be used multiple times in a short period of time. Even without the third soul skill, he still had four soul skills available to him!

As the dark lightning bolts hurtled toward her, Qi Qing's third spirit ring suddenly lit up.

A halo of light instantly spread in all directions. The moment the dark lightning touched the halo, Yan Molu felt her soul power suddenly freeze.

Eight-tone scale with staccato notes!

Qi Qing's eyes flashed with a cold light. Without hesitation, her fifth soul ring instantly lit up with a dark light. In the next instant, an arc of light condensed and shot out like an extremely sharp blade, heading towards Yan Mei, whose soul skill had been forcibly interrupted and who had not yet fully recovered.

Eight Tones and Syncopation!

Chapter 218 Still lost.

Can we win?

As the light blade formed by her fifth soul skill drew ever closer to Yan Moluo, Qi Qing couldn't help but clench her small fists.

"Tsk." A soft tsk sound rang out, and Yan Moluo's aura suddenly changed, with the fighting spirit in her eyes becoming intense.

Behind him, his fifth spirit ring instantly lit up.

At that moment, the double-pointed spear in his hand seemed to be tinged with a deep, dark light. He thrust the spear forward and struck the very center of the oncoming blade of light.

"Ding."

As if a soft sound came, the collision of two ten-thousand-year-old soul skills stirred up a whirlwind on the battle stage in the next instant.

The light blade was shattered by Yan Moluo's spear, transforming into an energy storm that swept across the entire area. The eerie glow on the tip of Yan Moluo's spear also dimmed, almost disappearing completely.

This time, the two were evenly matched, but Yan Moluo, who was temporarily unable to use her third soul skill, was generally at a disadvantage in this round of competition.

The control-type Soul Master in front of me is not weak at all. In fact, with this magical music box martial soul that I have never seen before, it would be a very easy thing for him to be admitted to Shrek Academy's inner court.

The fact that Star Luo Royal Academy has such a powerful control-type Soul Master is quite unexpected for Shrek Academy.

Before Yan Molu could retaliate, Qi Qing had already nimbly retreated dozens of meters, widening the distance between herself and Yan Molu again.

Yan Molu did not immediately retaliate. Having learned from his previous experience of being taken advantage of, he became more cautious.

The two faced each other from a distance. Suddenly, Yan Molu's expression changed, and she glanced at the soul ring wrapped around the spear in her hand.

The musical note pattern on the surface of the third spirit ring finally began to slowly dissipate.

He also reconnected with his spirit rings, which means he can now use his third spirit skill.

Not only Yan Moluo, who regained her senses of her soul skill, noticed the change, but Qi Qing, who at the same time realized that her soul skill had failed.

This made Qi Qing secretly groan.

Her fourth soul skill is indeed very strong, capable of sealing the opponent's soul skill for a short period of time. Such a soul skill has appeared very few times in the entire history of soul masters. However, just as Yan Molu guessed, the Eight Sounds: Rest is a soul skill with great limitations.

First, it cannot restrict multiple soul skills at the same time. Only after the restricted soul skill is unrestricted can it restrict other soul skills of the opponent. In other words, while this soul skill is sealing the opponent's soul skill, it will also become ineffective itself.

Secondly, the duration of this soul skill's sealing effect is not fixed. It depends not only on the number of years the opponent's soul ring has been sealed, but also on the difference in soul power between the two parties.

Qi Qing's soul power was already lower than Yan Molu's, and the third soul ring, which was also a thousand-year soul ring, was sealed, so the effect was naturally greatly reduced. From the start of the sealing until now, only about a minute has actually passed.

Of course, even so, this soul skill can still be considered a divine skill.

As his third spirit ring was unsealed, Yan Molu raised an eyebrow; he knew it was time to retaliate.

With a cold snort, Yan Moluo's second spirit ring lit up again, but Qi Qing was on high alert and would not let him succeed.

Qi Qing's second soul ring lit up almost simultaneously, and a musical note instantly appeared at Yan Moluo's feet, following her like a shadow. At this moment, Yan Moluo's body suddenly hunched over slightly, and then straightened up again with some difficulty.

Eighth tone·Accent note!

Gravity control!

Increased gravity is almost fatal for agility-based Soul Masters, as it significantly reduces their speed, which is their greatest asset.

Although the gravity multiplier of this soul skill cannot be too high due to the time limit, what is most terrifying is that it seems to be able to be released continuously, and it is a single-target control of the following and locking type. Such a soul skill is far more practical than area control.

"Hmph!" Yan Moluo refused to believe it and lit up his second soul ring again. He transformed into a phantom of light and shadow and quickly darted around. However, when he finished his second soul skill, his expression immediately turned ugly.

Originally, a single second soul skill could traverse a distance of tens of meters, quickly closing the gap, but now it can only barely traverse about ten meters.

A cold glint flashed in Yan Moluo's eyes. Her fourth soul skill shone brightly again, and her body and spear merged into a dark beam of light that pierced towards Qi Qing.

In this state, the effect of gravity control is greatly reduced, and it can hardly affect him.

Upon witnessing this scene, Qi Qing's third soul ring lit up once more, and a halo of light spread outwards in all directions.

Again?

Having just had his soul skill forcibly interrupted, Yan Molu was naturally unwilling to suffer another loss. Just before the halo was about to touch his body, Yan Molu actively withdrew from the state of body and spear as one. His first soul ring lit up, and a spear light arrived first, shattering the halo in front of him. Immediately afterwards, he activated his second soul skill again, transforming into a shadow and piercing towards Qi Qing.

Even though the second skill's travel distance was greatly reduced under the suppression of the accented notes, it was still enough for him to get close to Qi Qing at this moment!
