Douluo Continent: Building a Divine Kingdom Starting from the Spirit Hall

Lan Luan asked, puzzled, not understanding why the man in front of her was working so hard.

Although as a college team, they all wanted to achieve better results, even to reach the finals and win the championship.

But is it really necessary to risk your life?

Ultimately, the Soul Master Competition is just a stage. Even if you lose, there is still a future. But if you fight to the death here, you will have nothing left.

We surrender!

Captain Tianshui ran over and helped Lanluan up, admitting defeat and expressing immense fear of the person on the other side.

He was a madman, a madman who would give up his life.

"worth!"

With a nonchalant reply, Tian Hao turned and walked towards the main stands, channeling his ignited soul power back into the Purple Gold Grass Sword as he went.

However, he did not guide the Blue Silver Divine Tree's life force to recover from the damage caused by the soul force impact. After all, he still had to put on a show for those people. If he really recovered in the blink of an eye, he would have to put in a lot of effort to pretend to be seriously injured, which would be very tiring.

Even with the mask covering her face, which reduces her acting skills by 50%, it's still a considerable challenge.

It's better to play yourself.

Sure enough, a natural performance is the most convincing. Everyone could see that Tian Hao's body was not right, which further convinced them that the sacrificial technique had huge side effects.

Tang Zhen had the deepest understanding of this technique. Although this sacrificial technique was different from the exploding ring technique, the soul power was extremely violent after it was used. Under the impact of such violent soul power, physical damage was inevitable, and it could even be fatal if one was not careful.

It's fine if you use it a few times, but if you use it too often, you'll definitely die.

"Perhaps he won't even need to make a move; he'll destroy himself first."

Thinking to himself, Tang Zhen felt that perhaps he shouldn't bother making a move.

After all, it's difficult to do something perfectly seamless. He's not very good at this kind of planning, and once he leaves a trace, it will be quite troublesome.

It would be much better if that kid could kill himself.

Of course, we still have to be prepared that the kid absolutely cannot live.

Having stayed in the main stands until the end of today's competition, Tian Hao faced his final opponent the next day, which was also the last day of the Tiandou Division qualifiers. All the academy teams would face their final opponents on this day.

Some opponents are very strong, while others are very weak. Tian Hao naturally faced the strong ones.

You will surely lose today!

Thunder Team Captain Jade Marrow stared intently at the masked man opposite him, determined to win.

The six teammates on the side were equally determined, because they could not afford to lose again.

Although the final results have not yet been announced, they have privately made plans that if they lose another match, they may not be able to pass the qualifiers.

That would be incredibly embarrassing.

Therefore, they had no choice but to field their strongest lineup this time, consisting entirely of their main combat players.

Moreover, although they don't have a Soul King present, the weather today is perfect for them to perform well.

"You can summon lightning?"

Seeing the Thunder team's determination and confidence, Tian Hao seemed to understand something and looked up at the overcast sky.

"Let's do it!"

Upon discovering Tian Hao's secret killing move, Jade Stone Marrow roared, unleashing its full power through its martial soul possession, resonating with the lightning element wandering in the dark clouds using its soul skills and the innate abilities of its martial soul, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus.

The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Martial Soul has two great talents: in addition to Dragon Transformation, it also has Thunder Control, which can not only amplify lightning attribute soul skills, but also draw upon external lightning elements.

The sky is currently covered with dark clouds, and the clouds are very low, so with his strength, he can resonate with them.

The six team members also unleashed their full power to assist, and soon, under the guidance of the Thunder team, the once calm dark clouds were filled with rolling thunder and flashing lightning.

"Arrogance is the root of your defeat today!"

The successful lightning strike relieved the jadeite marrow, who then burst into laughter.

They were worried that the person would interrupt their lightning strike, but it turned out the other person didn't.

That's incredibly arrogant.

"Arrogance and confidence differ by only one word, and mine is naturally confidence!"

Tian Hao replied calmly, and then used the sacrificial method to ignite his soul power and form flames once again.

This time, he didn't attack; he simply released his burning soul power.

Ever since he learned about the method of upgrading the Blue Silver Divine Tree from the angel's divine sense through Qian Daoliu, he had always wanted to experience the tribulation of lightning.

There's no lightning tribulation experience available at this stage, but the lightning itself is pretty good.

Although she didn't understand why Tian Hao hadn't attacked yet, Yu Shi Sui didn't delay any longer and used her own soul power as a guide to bring down the lightning from the thunderclouds.

"Snapped!"

A flash of blazing white lightning appeared, and a massive bolt of lightning struck Tian Hao, but was blocked by the raging flames of his soul power.

The power of thunder was extremely domineering. Even the soul power that Tian Hao had burned with the method of sacrifice was partially neutralized, but there were still gains.

"It really can temper soul power!"

Upon sensing that a trace of the soul power that had been struck remained and had become even more condensed, Tian Hao became excited.

Thunder does indeed have the effect of tempering soul power. Although this natural thunder is far inferior to the tribulation of soul beasts, it still has some effect.

It's much faster than cultivating on your own, but it does consume a lot of soul power.

However, Tian has little else but the most soul power. Even if he exhausts all the soul power in his spiritual sea, it is worth it as long as it can be further refined.

And so, Tian Hao stood still and withstood the lightning, using it to temper his soul power, increasing its condensation and fusion.

The state of igniting soul power itself can increase the degree of soul power fusion, and now with the tempering of thunder, the increase is even greater.

Before the battle was even over, the fusion of the soul power of the two grass swords had reached 90%.

This was another hurdle, but fortunately, the tempering effect of the lightning was indeed powerful. Before the soul power of Yu Shisui and the others was exhausted, the lightning he guided finally helped Tian Hao overcome that hurdle.

"It has indeed slowed down. It will take at least ten of these thunderous attacks to help me raise the fusion level to 100%."

Feeling that the fusion level had hardly improved, Tian Hao wished he could immediately and secretly return to Wuhun City and have those cheap grandfathers arrange for him to be struck by lightning so that he could quickly increase the fusion level of the two grass swords' soul power to 100%.

That way, I can start fusing the third grass sword, and also take the opportunity to cultivate my thunder soul power, and then create the thunder grass sword.

"No rush, we need to accumulate enough soul power first."

After sensing the remaining soul power sealed in his spiritual sea and estimating the amount he had just consumed, Tian Hao calmed down.

This cultivation method is fast, but it is also quite taxing, so you need to be prepared.

We surrender!

Just as Tian Hao was thinking, a voice filled with grief and helplessness came from behind him. He looked up and met the resentful eyes of the Thunder team.

They would rather be defeated by the opponent's powerful self-created soul skill than accept such a humiliating defeat.

They stood there and let them attack, but even after their soul power was exhausted, they couldn't hurt them in the slightest. Is there anything more humiliating than this?

Chapter 199 Discussion

The preliminary rounds concluded smoothly, but Tian Hao was still the most dazzling player on the court. His tenacious attitude against the Thunder shocked everyone and was incredibly cool.

Not only were the academy teams participating in the Tiandou competition silent, but the ten teams that came from the other five competition regions also fell silent.

The other five major regions finished earlier because they had fewer opponents, and then immediately came to watch the preliminary rounds of the Tiandou region in order to prepare for the upcoming qualifying rounds.

But when they saw the Soul Kings in the Heaven Dou region, especially that inhuman thing, they couldn't help but fall silent.

Was that really a person?

The captains and vice-captains of the Five Elements Academy team and ten other teams from other regions gathered at a banquet organized by the Snow Battle organization to discuss a plan targeting a certain person.

After much thought, they still couldn't come up with a feasible tactic. Finally, Lan Luan, who had been silent all along, spoke up.

"If you face him, you should just admit defeat. There's no point in fighting him. His battlefield is already in the finals stage."

After a long silence, everyone finally nodded silently.

What can we do if we disagree? They managed to sweep through the entire qualifiers even when facing seven opponents alone. If it really came down to a one-on-one match in the qualifying rounds, they would definitely get crushed. There would be no suspense whatsoever, and it might even further damage their confidence.

"How come you all managed to break through in the match?"

Lin Feng, the captain of the Plant Academy team, stared at Ying Mei and the others with puzzlement. According to the information they had obtained before the competition, apart from the Royal Fighting Team 1 having a Soul King, the highest level of the other academy teams in the Heavenly Dou region was only level 49.

It's important to know that the bottleneck for Soul Masters is often the level nine to ten. The difficulty of advancing from level forty-nine to level fifty is much greater than advancing from level forty-eight to level forty-nine. It's not uncommon for someone to be stuck for a year or even several years.

He was stuck for a year and a half. If it were just one or two people breaking through, he wouldn't say anything. But it's very abnormal that four people in the Tiandou region have broken through to become Soul Kings in a row.

"I broke through while fighting him."

Yingmei spoke first, and she was actually very grateful to that person.

If it weren't for that battle, it would probably have taken her a year to break through and become a Soul King.

“His domain and soul power are very special. I made a breakthrough when I was competing with him for control of soul skills.”

Feng Aotian was the second to speak, feeling grateful to the other person as well, and admitting defeat wholeheartedly.

Although their team still had a trump card they hadn't used at the time, weren't they also playing it right then and there?

If it were used at that time, it would probably be the first thing to encounter against those desperate, all-out killing moves.

"I got a feeling after watching his first burst of that secret technique."

Lan Luan also joined in the commentary, saying that the battle was very intense, and even watching from the sidelines was a great experience.

In particular, the domain and sword intent, as well as the fully burning soul power, greatly stimulated her martial soul, and then she felt that she was about to break through.

“I am different from you. After truly witnessing his ultimate strength, I lost confidence in competing with him. In the end, with my father’s guidance, I regained my confidence and then broke through.”

However, his domain really stimulates the martial soul.

Hu Yankai, who also advanced, spoke more; his experience was slightly more complicated, but it was still related to that person.

Lin Feng and the others turned their gazes to the last person from the Five Elements Academy, Jade Marrow, and all had doubts.

Bro, the other four have all broken through, how come you're the only one at level 49?

Although the Thunder team did not pass the qualifiers, they are still members of the Five Elements Academy and have the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, one of the three upper sects, behind them. It would be inappropriate to leave them out, so they were also called over.
