Douluo: Dragon King's Tai Chi Mystery

Yu Yuanheng and Ye Xinglan were the trigger for the battle between the two sides. Out of respect for the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family and the Star Saint Sword family, Shrek Academy did not expel them, but instead placed them on probation, making it more difficult for them to enter the inner academy in the future.

Shrek Academy's inner court admission rules state that one must reach level 50 in cultivation by age 25 and become a One-Word Battle Armor Master. These two, however, had five years less; by age 20, they met the above requirement and were thus permitted to enter the inner court.

Xu Lizhi, Ning Qian, and others were defeated in front of everyone, which greatly damaged the prestige of Shrek Academy. From now on, the difficulty of the final exams will be increased, and anyone who fails any exam will not be awarded an outer academy graduation certificate.

Shrek Academy suffered a crushing defeat, and their supervising teacher, Shen Yi, was undoubtedly responsible and would normally be expelled. However, the Crimson Dragon Douluo, Zhuo Shi, protected his beloved disciple, and the Sea God Pavilion ultimately decided to reassign her to teach a special class, allowing her to atone for her sins through meritorious service.

After Leng Yaozhu left, Yali looked at the Shrek Academy members with a calm gaze: "You guys must have had a tough time these past few days. Go back and rest, and try to relax."

The punishment is only temporary. The academy has not given up on you and hopes that every student can learn and grow from their failures.

"Yes, Your Holiness the Holy Spirit."

Everyone bowed in unison, and then went their separate ways.

Yu Yuanheng hung his head, his face filled with resentment and hatred. Zhao Xuanzhen had gained the recognition of the entire continent, while he, the stepping stone, had become the biggest joke in the Soul Master world. But Zhao Xuanzhen was a bug in the system, and Yu Yuanheng knew all too well that he was no match for that terrifying power…

Avoid the sharp edge for the time being and be tolerant!

Yu Yuanheng will definitely come back!

Ye Xinglan ignored Xu Lizhi's concern behind her and stared intently at Zhao Xuanzhen and Na'er. She was a strong and competitive girl. One failure could not break her determined spirit. She would only become more courageous after each setback!

Silver Moon Douluo Cai Yue'er is the chief examiner for the new student assessment. Given that Leng Yaozhu had already given a warning, and to be on the safe side, Holy Spirit Douluo Ya Li decided to personally escort the two to the entrance assessment.

As they traveled along the main roads, Zhao Xuanzhen and Na'er admired the scenery along the way to Shrek Academy. The life energy emanating from the golden tree nourished all things, and various plants grew abundantly. No matter which direction they looked, they could see at least ten different kinds of plants.

Yali led the two into a circular hall, which was over twenty meters high. The dome was carved with a mural depicting a black dragon circling in the sky, its pair of bright golden eyes particularly eye-catching.

The moment Zhao Xuanzhen and Na'er looked at the black dragon, the mural on the dome suddenly glowed with black light. The dragon's claws seemed to pierce through the mural, and wherever the dragon's tail swept, the clouds burst open one after another.

"Roar--"

When the dragon's golden vertical pupils lit up with light, the dragon's pressure was released instantly. The dragon scales turned a deep black as if they wanted to devour all light, and black mist seeped out from the gaps in the scales, obscuring the sky. The dragon's furious roar echoed throughout the entire hall!

The black dragon's overwhelming pressure descended, but the two seemed completely unaffected. Na'er patted her slightly heaving chest and complained:

"That startled me! It was so loud!"

"Geniuses appear every year, but this year two monsters have arrived."

An old man in a dark green robe appeared, his weathered face showing surprise: "I have guarded the first pass for a hundred years, and this is the first time I have seen a little monster that ignores the pressure of the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King."

The dragon carved in the mural is the most ferocious beast on the continent, the true form of the Beast God Emperor Tian, ​​the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King. A drop of the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King's blood was mixed into the ink to simulate half of the dragon's might.

Most ordinary examinees would be intimidated by the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King's aura, while those with a Dragon Clan Martial Soul whose bloodline was far inferior to Di Tian's would be in even worse shape.

Zhao Xuanzhen and Na'er were exactly the same as usual, undoubtedly the first time the old man had ever seen such a sight in his life.

"Little Li, how many points do you plan to give as the guardian of the first level?" Ya Li asked with a light laugh.

Elder Li bowed respectfully: "Your Holiness, the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King's pressure had no effect, which shows that the two students have exceptional martial soul talents. They deserve a perfect score of ten."

The Shrek Academy entrance exam began the moment they entered the hall. The exam consisted of ten sections, each with a maximum score of ten points. A score of sixty points was required for admission to the outer academy, while a score of eighty-five or higher granted early admission to the inner academy, similar to Ye Xinglan and Xu Lizhi.

"Xuanzhen, Na'er, the first test is worth 10 points. The second test is now officially starting."

As the gentle voice faded, Ya Li and Old Man Li vanished, the dome spun, and the surrounding scenery underwent drastic changes.

After the spinning stopped, the two stood in the middle of a desert with endless yellow sand.

"It's somewhat like a real illusion of the Spirit Pagoda."

"really."

Zhao Xuanzhen spoke, and Na'er agreed.

"boom--"

The attack came silently, with sharp spikes piercing the sand, their tips gleaming with a cold, crystalline yellow light. Sand grains tumbled down the gullies, and the spikes trailed translucent, sticky threads, weaving a shrinking strangulation net in the air.

Na'er summoned the Silver Dragon Spear, its blade sweeping out horizontally. The power of space shattered the large net. Zhao Xuanzhen channeled immense power into his right leg and stomped down, causing the sand to explode and crack, revealing a giant shadow lurking underground.

Spider-like spirit beasts, with eight long, segmented limbs reflecting the brilliance of the sun, their carapace blending seamlessly with the flowing sand dunes, and their swollen abdomens storing enormous amounts of spider silk.

The cunning hunter, the millennia-old cave spider!

Chapter 43 Heavenly Phoenix True Fire Ignites the Silver Moon, Fourth on the List of Young Geniuses, Swan Ink Jade (4K)

The Cave Demon Spider, one of the kings of spider-type soul beasts, is skilled in traps, ambushes, and ambushes!

This ancient cave spider originally intended to launch an attack from underground, but unexpectedly, Zhao Xuanzhen and Na'er's combat power was off the charts, and its body was forcibly shaken out, its eight small eyes staring at the two of them in utter horror.

Compared to the evil killer, the human-faced spider, the cave spider's most fatal flaw is its lack of direct attack capability and the absence of the human-faced spider's deadly neurotoxin. However, the cave spider's control ability far surpasses that of the human-faced spider!

Crystal-yellow spider silk emerged, its slime drying upon contact with the wind, forming a vast, all-encompassing net that blanketed the two of them!

The claws tore through the air, ten dark golden claws flashing like falling stars, slicing through the spiderweb and sending dust flying. The cave spider's true killing move followed immediately: the web solidified into ridges, bursting forth from the earth!

Spider Web Cage, the most prized innate soul skill of the Cave Spider, is silent and effective for controlling the entire group!

"The air moves mountains and rivers, causing tremors."

Just before the spiderweb cage closed, Zhao Xuanzhen uttered a soft chant, and his first soul ring shone brightly. Black and white energies surged and transformed into a flowing Tai Chi array. The spiderweb, upon colliding with the Yin and Yang energies, shattered into dust.

Na'er, also with her first spirit ring, leaped into the air, her silver dragon spear tracing a full moon arc. A burst of silvery-white spatial power erupted, easily shattering the troublesome spiderwebs, its momentum undiminished. The spear tip, gleaming with a chilling light, pierced straight at the cave spider.

"The power moves mountains and rivers, and the world is at peace!"

The Tai Chi diagram suddenly expanded in mid-air, with the Yin and Yang energies moving in a continuous motion. The Earth Demon Spider, which was trying to burrow underground to escape, suddenly froze and fell into a state of dizziness.

Na'er wouldn't miss the opportunity. She unleashed her second soul skill, Silver Dragon Fury. The silver dragon roared, and her aura surged. The silver dragon spear, carrying the power of thunder, pierced through the spider's abdomen. The spear blade spun, cutting through space!

A piercing scream echoed, and yellowish-green blood splattered, revealing a gaping wound in the swollen, millstone-like abdomen of the cave spider. Na'er drew her blood-stained silver dragon spear, calmly watching the blood seep into the sand. The cave spider writhed and thrashed, struggling in its death throes.

"null--"

A moment later, the cave spider stopped moving, and its body disintegrated into specks of light and disappeared.

Faced with the combined attack of Zhao Xuanzhen and Na'er, even the ten-thousand-year-old cave spider could not cause much of a ripple. In contrast, the ten-thousand-year-old human-faced spider might have been able to withstand the attack for a while, as the attack power of the two spiders was not on the same level.

"The second test, beast fighting, is worth ten points."

The gentle and melodious voice of the Holy Spirit Douluo, Ya Li, rang out at the opportune moment. In fact, the second test did not require killing soul beasts; the students were expected to do their best, and the examiners would naturally provide their assessments. The two of them had killed the Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Cave Demon Spider, and their scores were undoubtedly top-notch.

"Attention test takers, the third checkpoint, the Guillotine Gate, is now open. You will receive six points if you pass within thirty seconds. For every three seconds less than thirty seconds, you will receive one point, and for every three seconds more than thirty seconds, you will lose one point."

As the environment changed and the yellow sand dissipated, the two returned to the real world, standing in front of a passageway with dozens of guillotines hanging from it.

The guillotine sliced ​​through the air, emitting a ghostly wailing sound. The blade gleamed with a cold, bluish-gray light, and its serrated edges resembled fangs. The swirling, icy air currents sliced ​​through the fine dust.

"That's it?"

Na'er glanced at the falling guillotines, sheathed her silver dragon spear, and said with a grin, "It's yours now!"

Before Zhao Xuanzhen could reply, Na'er put her hands behind her back and skipped towards Dao Ying, her long silver hair rising and falling with her bouncy movements, humming a light tune.

The guillotine seemed to have had enough of the arrogant girl, and its two blades, gleaming with blinding light, slashed down. Zhao Xuanzhen smiled helplessly, and with a flash, he followed behind Na'er, his hands outstretched, one on each side, to intercept the guillotine.

"Chong-"

The blade struck the skin with a resounding clang like metal striking stone, and countless cracks spread along the edge, causing the guillotine, made of black iron, to instantly disintegrate into iron filings.

Zhao Xuanzhen flicked his wrist, and iron filings fell through his fingers, exploding into flames on the ground. Then, he used his palm to knock away three guillotines that were slashing down in a crisscross pattern. The blades twisted into a pretzel shape under the impact of the enormous force.

"Show some respect for the assessment, at least release the Silver Dragon Spear."

"You're here!"

Hearing Zhao Xuanzhen's reminder, Na'er didn't take it seriously at all; she never doubted whether Zhao Xuanzhen could protect her.

"Besides, it's very easy to avoid it."

The girl leaped toward the finish line, her waist twisting in a breathtaking arc, her skirt embroidered with silver butterflies sweeping past the last guillotine blade.

The timer has ended, ten seconds remaining.

In the freshman assessment observation room, the examiners sat in a row. In the center was the Holy Spirit Douluo Ya Li, flanked by Elder Li, the guardian of the first level, and an old woman with a frail face.

"To break the black iron guillotine blade in half, is this the flesh and blood body that a Soul Venerable can possess?" Old Li couldn't help but exclaim.

The old woman sneered, "Old Li, haven't you seen the battle video of that kid in the Tianhai Alliance competition? He has a Gold-level Body Martial Soul."

The Sea God Pavilion preserves the secrets of the Body Sect's original form left behind by Spirit Ice Douluo, which contains many hidden secrets of the Body Sect. Given his age and soul power cultivation, his martial soul could not have evolved from a silver-level spirit through three awakenings; it would only be a gold-level spirit that broke through the history of the Body Sect through a second awakening. It's not surprising that he has such a physical body.

In terms of physical attributes, no Soul Master of the same level, or even one level higher in Soul Power, can rival him.

Leng Yaozhu… Hmph, she really does have an outstanding disciple.”

The sarcastic tone made Yali frown slightly, and she said, "Moon, the fourth test is a special talent assessment. They will come over to demonstrate their skills."

"You must not act rashly, lest you cause Yao Zhu to misunderstand. It is not advisable for the academy to antagonize the Spirit Pagoda right now."

"Don't worry, Sister Yali, I know what I'm doing. All my actions are for the sake of the academy's eternal glory."

Cai Yue'er made a solemn promise, but a subtle, calculating glint flashed in her eyes.

Before long, the door opened, and Zhao Xuanzhen and Na'er walked out side by side. Cai Yue'er's eyes brightened slightly, and she coughed lightly and said, "You have achieved a perfect score of 30 points in the first three rounds. The fourth round is called the Special Talent Assessment. You have three minutes to consider how to showcase your strengths."

Martial spirit, soul skills, mental power, combat techniques... anything is possible.

"I'll go first."

Na'er took the initiative to step forward. Unlike Zhao Xuanzhen, whose ability system was complex, she only had the Silver Dragon Spear, which cultivated the Dao of Space, and did not need to consider too much. Moreover, she wanted to help Zhao Xuanzhen test the waters and see what the special talent assessment was all about!

A clear and resounding dragon roar rang out. Na'er ignited a brilliant silver flame, her delicate body flashing seven times in mid-air, leaving seven silver specks in the air behind her silver dragon spear. Space was torn apart by the spear tip, and then the seven lights merged into one, forming a pitch-black spatial rift that frantically devoured everything around it.

"Na'er possesses the Silver Dragon Spear, a spatial attribute weapon spirit, and top-tier dragon bloodline, possibly belonging to the Silver Dragon lineage. She has excellent attack power and speed, comprehended spear intent at the age of ten, and achieved a perfect score in the fourth stage of the special skills assessment."

After giving her evaluation, Cai Yue'er shifted her gaze to Zhao Xuanzhen, who was her main target. She casually asked, seemingly unintentionally, "Are you Leng Yaozhu's apprentice?"

"Yes."

"Your name is Zhao Xuanzhen, right? I've watched the match video of Donghai Academy versus Shrek Academy. Your original martial soul is a gold-level second awakening with yin and yang attributes, a talent that is unique in the last 20,000 years."

Despite Ya Li's threatening gaze, Cai Yue'er still got up regardless, her voice echoing throughout the room:

"My title is Silver Moon, and I am a member of the Sea God Pavilion of Shrek Academy. I believe that your martial soul ability is special, and Leng Yaozhu is not suitable to teach you."

Shrek Academy has a highly respected elder with the title of Light and Darkness, possessing twin martial souls: the Light Holy Dragon and the Dark Holy Dragon.

The Light and Darkness Douluo controls the two major attributes of light and darkness, which are similar to the Yin and Yang attributes. He created the ultimate technique, the Two Extremes Explosion, which is unparalleled in the world.

Young man, a Soul Master's teacher is extremely important, determining their entire life's achievements. I intend to recommend you to the Light and Dark Douluo to become her last disciple; this would be the greatest honor of your life…”

"Cai Yue'er!"

A flash of anger crossed Ya Li's beautiful face. Because of her backing by Shrek Academy and her own considerable strength, few could discipline Cai Yue'er, leading her to become accustomed to doing whatever she pleased. Now, her audacity in poaching Leng Yaozhu's disciple was something even the usually good-natured Ya Li couldn't tolerate!

"Zhao Xuanzhen, what do you think?"

Ignoring Ya Li's anger, Cai Yue'er stared intently at Zhao Xuanzhen. Old habits die hard, and she had long been unhappy with Leng Yaozhu. Given the Silver Moon Douluo's willful and unruly personality, how could she not cause some trouble!

"me……"

Zhao Xuanzhen silently took out the soul-guided communicator from his pocket, and the screen showed that he was in a call.

"Teacher, Silver Moon Douluo is advising me to become Light and Dark Douluo's last disciple. Will you agree?"

Zhao Xuanzhen looked troubled and cautiously inquired of Leng Yaozhu. His overly convincing acting and extremely fake, tentative tone made Na'er, who was standing nearby, burst into laughter.

Guessing the assessment wouldn't go smoothly, Zhao Xuanzhen immediately contacted Leng Yaozhu via soul communication the moment he passed the Guillotine Gate. Every punctuation mark Cai Yue'er uttered was perfectly heard by Leng Yaozhu!

"Cai Yue'er, you're asking for death!"

A sharp, mournful roar came from the soul-guided communicator, and a loud phoenix cry resounded throughout the room. The phoenix pendant under Zhao Xuanzhen's clothes shone brightly!

The phoenix pendant contained a trace of Leng Yaozhu's spiritual power. Originally intended for location tracking, it has now become the trigger for Leng Yaozhu to manipulate the phoenix pendant into erupting!

The phantom phoenix flapped its wings and cried out, its wings spreading like clouds hanging from the sky, its feathers flowing with scorching flames, distorting the air with twisted ripples. This was the Heavenly Phoenix True Fire, condensed by Leng Yaozhu using the flames of her martial soul's origin; a single strike was enough to instantly annihilate a level 95 Title Douluo!

Cai Yue'er's expression changed drastically. She was covered in silver armor, with moon-like patterns flowing endlessly. Runes emerged from the gaps in her armor, intertwining to form a crescent moon shield.

Three-word battle armor, Silver Moon Darkness!

The two forces collided heavily, the phoenix flames exploded into thousands of waves of fire, the silver moon shield shattered under the strain, runes exploded one after another, and the armor turned from silver to red!

"boom--"

A ruthless glint flashed in the phoenix's eyes. The Heavenly Phoenix True Fire, attached to the Silver Moon Shield, launched a self-destruction. Cai Yue'er was thrown away by the wave of fire. Her exposed skin, visible through her tattered battle armor and robes, was covered in scorch marks, and her curly hair was emitting black smoke.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Cai Yue'er got up in a sorry state, exhaling rings of black gas from her mouth. Her cultivation level was only level 96. If she hadn't been wearing the Three-Word Battle Armor, a single strike from the Heavenly Phoenix True Fire would have taken half her life!

"Leng Yaozhu!" Cai Yue'er screamed, her hair disheveled.
