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

"Someone you know?"

Tian Hao asked, feigning confusion. Although he had already guessed who the other person was, he still had to keep up the act.

"do not know."

Everyone shook their heads, indicating they didn't recognize him.

Did you understand everything I just said?

Tian Hao didn't pay much attention to it and took the opportunity to end his previous bluff.

"I understand!"

Everyone responded in unison, some even eager to try it out.

"Tang San, Ma Hongjun, you can't use your external soul bones. Those things can only be used as a trump card to save your lives, or you can use them in front of others after you have become strong enough."

While you're in school, focus on improving yourself. There's no need to reveal your weaknesses to everyone; otherwise, you'll easily become a target later, understand?

Tian Hao gave a reminder, and just then the broadcast from the Great Soul Arena announced the match between the Shrek Team and the Berserker Team.

"I understand, Teacher Yue."

Although Ma Hongjun was unhappy, he still nodded to indicate that he understood.

"Alright, you guys go out and prepare for the battle. Tang San and Xiao Wu, stay behind."

He gestured for everyone to leave first, then turned his gaze to Tang San and Xiao Wu.

"This time, Flander used Shrek Academy's honor and my influence to get Supervisor Ao to vouch for you so that you could participate in the Soul Fighting Competition normally. Don't cause any more trouble for me and the academy."

If you still can't control your emotions and reason, you can tell me now.

His expression was no longer as calm as before; this time it carried a hint of coldness and seriousness.

"We have been able to control our emotions."

Tang San replied indifferently, indicating that he could control it. Xiao Wu, standing beside him, nodded reluctantly, indicating that she could do the same.

"Even though you are lying, since you insist on doing so, then join the war."

"But if you lose control again, or even cause deaths, I will kick you out of the Shrek Academy team, and you will have to pay the Soto Grand Arena ten million gold soul coins as compensation for reputational damage."

Tian Hao didn't bother to argue. After leaving some words, he got up and left the lounge to watch the match in the VIP room that Ao Ying had specially arranged.

"What's with the attitude?!"

Xiao Wu muttered something in dissatisfaction, clearly annoyed by the tone of someone's voice, which felt like it was directed at her and her third brother.

"Don't take it to heart, just protect yourself in the battle later."

With a tender touch, Tang San brushed a strand of Xiao Wu's hair aside, then held her small hand and walked outside, though his eyes returned to their previous coldness.

He will never let anyone hurt Xiao Wu again!

Upon arriving at the VIP room, they found it empty. Flander and Yu Xiaogang, who were supposed to have come with them, were not there; instead, they were in the regular spectator area below.

Without keeping Tian Hao waiting long, the Berserker Team and the Shrek Team took to the stage one after the other.

Compared to the enthusiastic cheers when the Berserker team appeared, the Shrek team, as a new team, had a very quiet entrance, and people didn't even know where the Shrek team came from.

This is normal. The Soto Grand Arena is divided into twenty-four sub-arenas and one main arena. The main arena is where high-level battles are held, especially team battles. The people who come to watch are all rich and powerful, and they are not on the same level as the audience in the sub-arenas. They rarely go to the sub-arenas to watch the battles, so naturally they are not familiar with Dai Mubai and the others.

However, as Xiao Wu and Tang San walked out, many people recognized them.

After all, only a minority of people can kill in the Great Soul Arena, let alone ruthless characters who can kill with the help of bows and crossbows.

Looking at the hushed whispers and exclamations from the audience around him, as well as the disdainful glances they cast his way, Tang San clenched his fists tightly.

Ao Ying personally took to the field as the host to preside over the battle, and also served as the referee and protector in this team battle.

Previously, in order to persuade the Berserker Team to fight the Shrek Team, he had guaranteed with his own honor and the honor of the Soto Arena that he would not let those two little kids cause any more deaths.

"That's her?"

Standing behind the mad rhinoceros, the spider woman looked at Zhu Zhuqing opposite her and couldn't help but feel jealous of her even hotter figure than her own.

It's so enviable!

"Her strength is very strong, no less than mine. I don't know how strong she will be after her martial soul is attached to her, and she is very fast. I didn't even have time to react."

Kuangxi said solemnly, touching his stomach as he spoke, which was still aching slightly.

That kick earlier made him question his existence; the force was no less than his own.

"She's mine now."

Licking her scarlet lips, the Spider Woman fixed her gaze on Zhu Zhuqing.

She is the strongest member of the team, so her opponents must also be the strongest; only then will the fights be interesting.

Without keeping either side waiting long, Ao Ying, now possessed by his martial soul, announced the start of the battle. He stepped aside and kept a close eye on both sides, with most of his attention focused on Tang San and Xiao Wu.

Tang San felt very uncomfortable noticing Ao Ying's gaze, and he had an urge to take out his Zhuge Crossbow and shoot it.

As a disciple of the Tang Clan, the greatest taboo is being targeted, but now that the opponent is stronger, I can only endure it.

"Brothers, activate your Martial Souls!"

As the team leader, Dai Mubai roared, his White Tiger Martial Soul activating, causing his body to swell significantly and his aura to surge. The four best-configured soul rings, two yellow and two purple, slowly rotated beneath his feet.

Others also released their martial spirits, either possessing them or manifesting them.

All eyes turned to Ma Hongjun, astonished by the configuration of his spirit rings.

Even the best spirit ring configuration is only two yellow and two purple, and it takes until the fifth spirit ring to reach ten thousand years. But that little fat boy's fourth spirit ring is black, breaking the best spirit ring age configuration.

Could he be a prodigy?

Some people were unaware of Ma Hongjun's existence and were filled with doubt and uncertainty, while others had known about him for a long time and had already bet on the Shrek team to win.

"I misjudged him. That chubby kid should be their strongest, but unfortunately he's a fire-attribute soul master, which is too much of a counter to me."

Spider Woman shifted her gaze from Zhu Zhuqing to Ma Hongjun, looking at the black spirit ring with a very solemn expression.

To be able to absorb a ten-thousand-year-level spirit ring while on the fourth spirit ring, one is definitely not an ordinary person; one must be the strongest member of the opposing team.

She was most interested in those strong opponents, but unfortunately, the opponent was a fire-attribute soul master, which was too much of a counter to her, so she couldn't fight.

The attention and admiration from everyone made Ma Hongjun even more pleased, and he even stuck out his big belly.

"The plan is progressing smoothly."

Looking at Ma Hongjun's smug and arrogant expression below, Tian Hao's lips curled into a wicked smile.

The initial purpose of giving Ma Hongjun a cheat code was partly to lure him into the God of Desire's test, but another purpose was to further ignite the arrogance Ma Hongjun had learned from Flanders.

Ma Hongjun was not a kind person to begin with. He had been taught by Flanders since childhood, and some of his ideas had long been deeply ingrained in his instincts. He also believed in Flanders's philosophy without a doubt.

Like the previous provocation of the Canghui team, he had also provoked them once before the start of the Soul Master Competition in the original Destiny Track, which was something he learned from Flander.

This arrogant nature usually attracts a lot of hatred. Now that he has obtained three external soul bones and a ten-thousand-year soul ring, his arrogance will inevitably increase even further.

He couldn't say for sure what Ma Hongjun would become in the future, but he certainly wouldn't disappoint him.

"If you want to break up Flander and Yu Xiaogang, these two best buddies, then it's up to you, little fatty."

He whispered to himself that he had high expectations for Ma Hongjun.

If Ma Hongjun breaks with Shrek Academy and leaves, then his teacher, Flander, will definitely not sit still and will inevitably leave as well.

This would allow Flanders to be given the position of god who tempts the god of greed.

Chapter 582 We Have No Interest in Victory

The two sides were locked in a tense standoff, and the Berserker team's support-type Soul Master made the first move, using the first two Soul Skills to increase the attack and defense of his teammates.

"on!"

Seeing that Dai Mubai and the others were carefully observing their own forces, Kuangxi decisively gave the order and charged out himself.

Their Berserker team's main strategy is to fight head-on and launch fierce attacks, defeating their opponents with overwhelming force and giving them no chance to breathe, let alone find any openings.

"Entangle!"

After the five members of the Berserker Team launched their charge, Tang San then manifested his spirit rings and used his first spirit skill to control the Blue Silver Grass to grow rapidly, bypassing the Berserker Team members and extending towards the support-type spirit master who was being protected at the back.

His teacher had told him many times that the priority in team battles was to eliminate support-type Soul Masters, because powerful support-type Soul Masters could elevate the entire team's strength to a higher level, such as the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

Or it may have some special effects, such as Oscar's flying mushroom sausage.

Those are all forces capable of changing the course of the battle. Although what Teacher Yue said earlier made some sense, he still firmly believed in his teacher's explanation and decided to deal with the opponent's support-type Soul Master first.

This move was indeed very sudden. The five members of Kuangxi had already rushed out and were about to fight Dai Mubai and the others. It was impossible for them to come back to help. Otherwise, they would only be pursued by Dai Mubai and the others, which would put them in a very passive position and even lead to defeat.

Tang San stood at the back with Ao Jiu'er, only revealing his martial soul but not his spirit rings. He didn't want to reveal his fourth spirit ring, which was also black, first, so as to divert the opponent's attention from him and achieve a surprise effect.

However, the Berserkers were not weak either; how could they not know the rules of team battles?

Before the rapidly extending Blue Silver Grass could bind the support-type Soul Master, a spider silk suddenly extended and pulled the support-type Soul Master away, causing the Blue Silver Entanglement to miss its target.

"Another ten-thousand-year soul ring."

After rescuing her own support-type Soul Master, the Spider Woman looked at the boy at the back of the opposing team with a solemn expression.

That's another genius with a black fourth spirit ring, just like that chubby kid.

I really don't know how they did it.

But now that we've seen it, we have to match it up.

As a fellow control-type Soul Master, she was well aware of the power of control-type Soul Masters, and only she could restrain the opponent's control-type Soul Master.

However, before they could make a move, a figure shrouded in a purplish-black soul robe suddenly passed through the five members of the Mad Rhino and appeared in front of the Spider Woman.

"Your opponent in this battle is me."

With a cold reminder, Zhu Zhuqing quickly waved her hands, forming claws with her fingers, forcing the Spider Woman to retreat repeatedly and gather a spider web to defend herself.

However, the once-tough spider web was easily torn apart by the opponent like rotten wood, and even the sticky properties of the spider web could not be activated.

Because the opponent's claws were not only sharp but also very fast, the spider web didn't have time to stick to them.

Seeing how difficult the opponent was to deal with, the Spider Goddess's expression became even more serious, and she directly unleashed her third soul skill.

Zhu Zhuqing remained cold-blooded, using her sharp claws and speed to tear apart the spider web created by her opponent. Combined with the agile movements of the Purple Cloud Step, she prevented the spider web from landing on her and avoided the poison.
