Douluo Continent: Copying Ya Li, the Carefree King of the Sun and Moon

Ji Juechen walked at the back, his sword pressed even tighter against his chest, his footsteps so light they were almost silent. He was like a sharp sword hidden in its sheath, seemingly without edge, yet no one dared to underestimate him.

Shen Muqing and Zhao Tiesheng walked in the middle, closely following the people in front of them, their steps quickening and their hearts pounding.

The moment I stepped out of the passage, the blinding sunlight hit my face, and the cheers of 100,000 spectators surged over me like a tidal wave, making my ears ring.

In the stands, the flags of the Sun Moon Empire and Shrek Academy each occupied half the space, fluttering in the wind. Supporters on both sides shouted at the top of their lungs, each trying to suppress the other's momentum.

In the VIP section, Emperor Xu Jiawei of Xingluo sat in the center, his face calm, but his eyes held a complex emotion that was hard to describe.

Poison Undying mingled in the crowd, holding a wine glass, smiling as he stared intently at the competition stage, his eyes never leaving it.

Xuanzi sat in Shrek's seat, his face ashen, his aura still not fully calmed.

Chapter 129 One Sword Breaks the Dragon Claw

The referee stood in the center of the competition platform, raised his right hand, and scanned the fourteen contestants on both sides.

"The fourth match of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament Finals, a seven-on-seven team battle, is now beginning!"

"Boys, take your positions!"

Fourteen people stepped onto the competition stage at the same time.

On the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy side, Xu Yanli stood at the very front, his jade fan snapping shut and tucked back into his waistband. The six people behind him spread out in a fan shape around him.

Xiao Hongchen was to his left rear, with two miniature soul-guided cannons mounted on his arms, their muzzles gleaming with a cold, eerie light.

Meng Hongchen was to the right rear, and the phantom of Zhu Qingbingchan faintly appeared behind him, causing the surrounding air to instantly turn cold.

Huo Yuhao stood directly behind, his hands hanging at his sides, his eyes half-open and half-closed, his mental energy already spread out, enveloping the entire arena.

Ji Juechen stood on the left edge, his hand resting on the hilt of his sword, his aura extremely cold.

Shen Muqing was on the right edge, with the phantom of the Azure Phosphorous Serpent slowly moving behind her, and a faint green mist slowly dissipating from her feet.

Zhao Tiesheng stayed at the back, while Xue Lihua's support aura was already lit up, ready to buff her teammates at any time.

On the Shrek Academy side, the seven people also quickly stood in place.

Dai Yueheng stood at the front, with the phantom of the Evil-Eyed White Tiger appearing behind him. Six spirit rings, two yellow, two purple, and two black, rose from his feet, exuding an imposing aura.

Yu Xuanye stood to his right, the phantom of the Fire Thunder Dragon roaring to the sky, flames and lightning crackling around him.

Bebe was on the left, the blue lightning of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex dancing on its arm, exuding a fierce aura.

Xu Sanshi stood behind Bei Bei, the phantom of the Xuanming Turtle's shell covering his body, and a heavy aura emanated from him.

Ling Luochen stood at the back, holding the ice crystal staff, surrounded by a faint mist of ice.

The Soul King of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda was to her left, the seven-story pagoda suspended in her palm, shimmering with light.

The Vine Martial Soul Soul King is on the right, with green vines sprouting from beneath his feet and slowly wriggling on the ground.

Including Yu Xuanye, these few people whose names Xu Yanli couldn't remember were obviously substitute members.

The referee, after confirming that both sides were ready, waved his right hand sharply: "Begin!"

The words had barely left his mouth when both sides moved simultaneously!

Xiao Hongchen reacted the fastest, his arms twitching and the two soul-guided cannons instantly firing. Two blazing soul-guided beams of light shot straight toward the center of Shrek's formation, suppressing them with all his might from the very beginning, giving them no chance to breathe.

Shrek Academy was clearly prepared. Xu Sanshi stepped to the front, his second spirit ring suddenly lit up, and the Xuanming Shield Formation instantly unfolded. Layer upon layer of shield shadows blocked Xiao Hongchen's spirit guide beam.

The beam of light struck the shield array, exploding into two dazzling bursts of fire, but the shield array remained completely still.

"It's that tortoise shell again, what a nuisance." Xiao Hongchen pursed his lips, but his hands didn't stop. He fired two more cannons, this time specifically targeting the gaps in the shield formation.

Just then, Yu Xuanye made his move.

The first spirit ring lit up, and the Fire Thunder Dragon Claw instantly condensed. A huge dragon claw wrapped in flames and lightning, carrying the pressure of the Dragon Martial Soul, went straight for Xiao Hongchen. It was fast and ruthless, and even the air was distorted by the heat.

Xiao Hongchen's expression changed; it was too late to dodge.

At the critical moment, a sword light suddenly shone!

Ji Juechen drew his sword.

The sword light was as fast as lightning, slashing at the fire and thunder dragon's claw from the side. The blade and the dragon's claw collided fiercely, sparks flying everywhere.

The Fiery Thunder Dragon Claw was deflected by the sword strike, grazing Xiao Hongchen's shoulder and only scorching a small patch of his clothing.

Xiao Hongchen breathed a sigh of relief and gave Ji Juechen a thumbs up: "Thanks, brother!"

Ji Juechen did not respond. He sheathed his sword and returned to his original position. The whole process took less than a second.

In that brief exchange, Huo Yuhao had already grasped the battlefield situation perfectly. Through mental sharing, he accurately transmitted the information to each teammate's mind: "Dai Yueheng gathers his soul power in his arms, about to unleash the White Tiger Blazing Light Wave; Yu Xuanye's right arm is intertwined with fire and lightning, charging up for the second Fire and Lightning Dragon Claw; Bei Bei's Thunder Dragon Claw is ready, targeting Xiao Hongchen; Ling Luochen's Ice Prison locks onto Meng Hongchen; the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda is buffing everyone; and the Vine Martial Soul is charging up its Entangling Technique."

He even reported the progress of the opponent's soul skill charging up in detail.

"Xiao Hongchen, 30 degrees to the left front, White Tiger Blazing Light Wave, to be released in three seconds. Meng Hongchen, 45 degrees to the right rear, Ice Prison, to be locked in two seconds. Shen Muqing, slightly to the right front, Vine Entanglement, to be attacked in one second."

Shen Muqing reacted extremely quickly, her second spirit ring lighting up instantly, and the Serpent Shadow Entanglement was activated immediately.

Several emerald green snake shadows shot out from the ground, heading straight for Shrek's Vine Soul King and tightly binding her ankles. The emerald phosphorus poison instantly seeped in, directly interrupting her power-gathering.

The Vine Soul King groaned, his body swayed, and his face turned deathly pale, clearly indicating that he had been severely poisoned.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Soul King's expression changed, and he hurriedly activated his fifth soul skill, Healing Light, to land on the Vine Soul King in an attempt to dispel the poison. But how easy is it to cure the poison of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent?

This is the inherited martial spirit of the famous Poison Douluo family from ten thousand years ago.

The Vine Soul King's expression remained grim, and his movements slowed considerably.

"A good opportunity!" Xiao Hongchen shouted, spreading his arms and firing all four soul-guided cannons at the same time. This time it was no longer a test, but a full-scale attack.

A barrage of soul-guided beams bombarded Shrek Academy's formation, each one hitting precisely the weak points in their defenses that Huo Yuhao had marked.

Xu Sanshi's Xuanming Shield Formation barely blocked most of the damage, but the light of the shield formation had begun to dim, and it was clear that it wouldn't last much longer.

Seeing this, Dai Yueheng no longer hesitated. His second soul ring lit up, and the White Tiger Blazing Light Wave shot out. Several white light waves crashed towards the Sun and Moon Formation from different directions, with their target being Huo Yuhao at the very back.

He understood that Huo Yuhao was the core of the team, and as long as he was eliminated, the Sun and Moon Team's coordination would immediately fall apart.

However, Huo Yuhao had already locked onto the attack trajectory through mental detection. He moved his feet slightly and sideways to avoid the main force of the light wave. The aftershock grazed his shoulder, only shattering a small piece of his clothing, and he was completely unharmed.

Xiao Hongchen's firepower grew increasingly fierce, and Xu Sanshi's Xuanming Shield Formation finally couldn't hold on any longer.

"boom!"

The moment the shield shattered, Xu Sanshi was forced back by the aftershocks of the soul-guided beam, a trickle of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.

Beibei gritted his teeth, his fourth soul ring lit up, and the Thunder Dragon Head condensed. The huge Thunder Dragon Head rushed straight towards Xiao Hongchen. He risked most of his soul power for this attack, hoping to severely damage the core of the Sun Moon Team's firepower in one fell swoop.

But Meng Hongchen was prepared. Her fourth soul ring lit up, and the Zhu Jing Ice Explosion was activated instantly. Several blood-red ice crystals condensed in front of her and shot towards the Thunder Dragon Head.

The ice crystals collided violently with the thunder dragon's head, exploding into a shower of ice shards and electric sparks. The thunder dragon's head was blasted off course and crashed into the edge of the arena, creating a large crater.

Taking advantage of this opening, Xiao Hongchen simultaneously aimed all four soul-guided cannons at Bei Bei and unleashed them with all his might.

Chapter 130 The Battle Ends with a Single Move

Beibei's expression changed drastically; it was too late to dodge.

Just then, a figure blocked his way; it was Dai Yueheng.

Dai Yueheng's third spirit ring lit up, and the White Tiger Vajra Transformation activated instantly. His body expanded, and the white tiger phantom completely merged into his body, greatly increasing his strength and defense. He crossed his arms in front of him, forcefully withstanding Xiao Hongchen's four cannon shots simultaneously.

"Boom boom boom boom!"

Four loud explosions rang out, and Dai Yueheng was forced back four or five steps. His sleeves were ripped to shreds and covered in burn marks, but he did not retreat an inch and withstood all the attacks.

In the stands, Xu Jiawei jokingly teased Dai Hao, "Your son is pretty good, very loyal."

"Your Majesty flatters me," Dai Hao said without changing his expression.

"Brother Dai!" Bei Bei exclaimed in surprise.

Dai Yueheng shook his numb arm and gritted his teeth, saying, "It's okay, keep fighting."

Huo Yuhao's eyes sharpened, his third spirit ring lit up, and the group weakness effect was activated immediately.

An invisible spiritual fluctuation emanated from him, precisely enveloping the seven Shrek students.

Dai Yueheng felt a sudden heaviness all over his body, and his strength instantly decreased by 30%, greatly reducing the amplification effect of the White Tiger Vajra Transformation.

Yu Xuanye's Fire and Thunder Dragon Claws lost power, and the flames and lightning dimmed.

Beibei's Thunder Dragon Head condensed nearly half as slowly, and the blue lightning also weakened.

Xu Sanshi's Xuanming Shield Formation was interrupted by the weakening effect before it could be fully assembled, and the shield shadow shattered instantly.

Ling Luochen's Ice Prison collapsed on its own before it could even lock Meng Hongchen in place, shattering ice crystals all over the ground.

The amplification effect of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda has been weakened, and its attribute bonuses have been significantly reduced.

The Vine Soul King was already poisoned, and coupled with his weakness, he swayed unsteadily and could barely stand.

"Now!"

Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen exchanged a glance, and the brother and sister attacked at the same time.

Xiao Hongchen spread his arms wide, unleashing all five soul-guided cannons, bombarding the Shrek formation with overwhelming firepower.

Meng Hongchen's fifth soul ring lit up, his Crimson Eyes and Ice Eyes activated, and his Ice and Fire Pupils opened, unleashing a powerful mental shock that hurtled towards the seven members of Shrek Academy.

Dai Yueheng gritted his teeth and used all his strength to activate his sixth soul skill, White Tiger Annihilation Strike. He crossed his claws and slashed, sending a golden blade of light straight towards Xiao Hongchen, trying to interrupt his firepower output.

Huo Yuhao had already locked onto the attack and immediately transmitted his voice: "Xiao Hongchen, dodge to the right!"

Without a second thought, Xiao Hongchen immediately turned to the side, the golden blade of light grazing his shoulder and striking the edge of the arena, leaving a deep crack.

At the same time, Shen Muqing made his move, his fifth spirit ring lit up, and the Thousand Serpents Devour Heart skill was activated.

Countless emerald green snakes surged from beneath her feet, overwhelming Shrek Academy, coiling around Dai Yueheng's legs, Yu Xuanye's waist, and Bei Bei's arms, their deadly venom seeping into their bodies.

Dai Yueheng's legs went numb, and his soul power was becoming increasingly sluggish.

Yu Xuanye's fire and lightning power was suppressed by the poisonous mist, greatly reducing its power.

Beibei's blue lightning completely dimmed, and she couldn't even unleash her soul skills.

Zhao Tiesheng's support aura fell perfectly on his teammates. His fourth soul skill, Thousand Snow Blossoms, was activated, and a giant snow pear blossom bloomed in the air, its petals falling to continuously restore everyone's health and soul power.

Xiao Hongchen's shoulder, which had been scratched, healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his depleted soul power was quickly replenished.
