Douluo Continent: Tonight, a Fairy Tale Descends

Three minutes of high-intensity output depleted most of her soul power.

Just this brief pause.

Cinderella pulled.

"First Soul Skill, Starlight Leap!"

A golden stream of light appeared three meters to Luo Li's side.

Upon landing, golden stardust splattered.

Luo Li's mind went blank for a moment, but her will was much stronger than Ye Feng's, and the dizziness only lasted for a second and a half.

But that's enough.

"Second Soul Skill, Thorn Waltz"

Spinning kick, crystal tip stimulation shot.

Luo Li gritted her teeth and dodged with all her might.

She dodged most of them, but three spikes still pierced her shoulder and arm.

Thorn imprint, implanted.

But Luo Li did not back down.

She took a deep breath and suddenly clasped her hands together.

"Third Soul Skill, Cactus Fury!"

boom!

Dark green light surged from her body, instantly condensing into a thick layer of spiked armor on her body surface!

That was her defensive soul skill, and also her counterattack soul skill.

If an enemy attacks this layer of armor, they will be injured by the spikes on it.

Cinderella's eyes narrowed.

She did not attack rashly.

Instead, he used his soul skill again.

"The waltz of thorns connects the stars."

Her body suddenly accelerated, spinning and kicking wildly within a three-meter radius around Luo Li.

With each kick, a crystal spike shot out, accurately piercing Luo Li's armor.

But not for piercing or attacking.

Rather, it was to layer marks.

The first one, the second one, the third one...

Luo Li's armor was soon covered with a dense array of crystal spikes.

Each thorn is a mark of thorns.

Cinderella stopped in her tracks.

Luo Li, panting heavily, stared intently at her: "You...you're not going to attack?"

Cinderella did not answer.

She simply snapped her fingers lightly.

"burst."

Twelve Thorn Marks detonate simultaneously!

Boom boom boom boom boom boom!

A series of explosions erupted around Luo Li, instantly shattering her thick cactus armor and sending dark green light flying in all directions.

Luo Li let out a scream as her body was blasted backward, finally crashing heavily onto the edge of the ring.

She struggled to get up, but she had no strength left in her body.

"Luo Li is eliminated! Shrek Academy wins the round!"

The referee's voice rang out.

A burst of enthusiastic cheers erupted from the Shrek training area below the stage.

But Yu Xiaogang did not laugh.

He stared intently at the golden figure on the stage.

Cinderella won.

But her breathing became more rapid than before, and the beads of sweat on her forehead were even thicker.

Despite her best efforts to conserve her soul power in the two consecutive battles, the depletion was real.

Two students from the Plant Academy have yet to play.

Cinderella stood on the stage, her gaze passing through the crowd and landing on the pale golden figure at the very back of the Plant Academy's preparation area.

Ailuo.

She was looking at her too.

Their eyes met in the air.

A faint smile appeared on Ai Luo's lips.

There was no hostility or provocation in that smile, only a faint expectation.

Below the stage, the teacher leading the team from the College of Plant Sciences frowned deeply as he watched Cinderella stand proudly on the stage.

He never expected that Shrek Academy would have such a powerful team member hidden away.

At level 47, he defeated Ye Feng with just two soul skills, and then withstood Luo Li's attrition battle to defeat him.

How much soul power does this blonde girl have left? Seventy percent? Or sixty percent?

He quickly made his calculations.

According to the original plan, another Soul Master should be sent out to continue wearing down the opponent, leaving Ai Luo for the final showdown.

After all, Aurora is their trump card, the hope of the entire Barak Kingdom, and they cannot afford to take unnecessary risks.

But just then, a pale golden figure swept past him.

"I'll go."

Aurora's voice was soft, yet carried an undeniable firmness.

The teacher in charge was taken aback: "Ailuo? Wait a minute, let..."

"No need to wait."

Aurora turned around, her light golden eyes looking at him calmly, a faint smile playing on her lips.

"I'm confident."

She didn't say anything more, but simply turned and walked towards the ring.

The pace was unhurried and graceful, as if this were not a life-or-death qualifying match, but a leisurely stroll in the garden in the afternoon.

Below the stage, countless eyes followed her every move.

Who is that?

"Princess Aurora of the Kingdom of Barak."

"I heard she was born with full soul power..."

"This is going to be interesting."

Cinderella stood on the ring, watching the pale gold figure slowly approach.

Sunlight fell on Aurora, casting a gentle glow on her long, light golden hair. Her delicate face, fair skin, and the faint scent of roses enveloped her.

It's unbelievably beautiful.

They're so beautiful they don't look like they're here to fight.

But Cinderella knew that the more dangerous a person was, the more dangerous they were.

Aurora stood in the center of the ring, twenty meters away from Cinderella.

She looked up, her amber eyes meeting those light gold eyes.

The two stared at each other silently for a few seconds.

Then, Aurora smiled.

The smile was faint, yet it carried an indescribable meaning.

"Hello, Cinderella," she said softly, her voice as gentle as a falling flower petal.

"I look forward to facing you."

Cinderella looked at this fellow countryman who shared the same origins but whose fates were so different, and a smile slowly crept onto her lips.

"I'm really looking forward to it too."

She bowed slightly, performing a standard Soul Master salute.

Aurora returned the gift in return.

The two moved with elegance and composure, as if they were not fighting to the death in a ring, but exchanging greetings at a court ball.

Chapter 412 Cinderella VS Aurora 1

The referee glanced at the two players, took a deep breath, and suddenly waved his hand:

"Game start!"

The moment the referee finished speaking, two slender figures on the stage moved simultaneously, completing their martial spirit possession at the same time.

At Cinderella's feet, golden and blue light exploded like shattered diamonds, so dazzling that it was impossible to open one's eyes.
