Douluo: I have too many clones

Chapter 683: Beastly Master
The Continental Youth Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition is jointly organized by the four countries on the Douluo Continent today: Tianhun, Douling, Xingluo, and Sun and Moon.

This competition is held every five years, and the host is rotated among four countries.

The Continental Youth Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition. Just by listening to the name, you can tell that this is a feast for young soul masters.

Most of the powerful and famous people in Douluo Continent today have participated in this competition when they were young.

Since the competition was held, except for the last competition held in the Xingluo Empire, there has not been a soul master with a level lower than three rings who has been able to participate in this feast.

After the Sun Moon Empire changed the rules of the competition, there were no members below the fourth ring among the teams that were qualified and dared to sign up for the competition. This undoubtedly made the competition more intense.

Every time the Continental Youth Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition is held, it becomes like a huge magnet, attracting people from all over the continent, and even merchants and nobles from various countries to come and watch.

For some civilians with spare money, it is a great deal to spend a little money to watch soul masters fight, or even fight to the death.

In short, the Continental Youth Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition is a feast for young soul masters, and there has never been an example where ordinary people can participate.

But this competition held by the Sun-Moon Empire may be a first, giving ordinary people the opportunity to perform on stage.

"Woo-"

On the huge arena, three men and one woman were lying on the arena, groaning in pain. They were wearing different clothes, some from the Tianhun Empire, some from the Douling Empire, some from the Xingluo Empire, and even...

"That's the clothing of Riming Town, and that person is from our country!"

In the crowd, some sharp-eyed people from the Sun-Moon Empire couldn't help but shout loudly after seeing the clothes of one of the men.

As soon as these words were spoken, it was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, instantly causing a thousand waves!

"What! Riming Town's clothing? Could that man really be a citizen of the Empire?!"

"Nonsense, I've been to Riming Town before. Because of its geographical location, the residents there generally have darker skin, and their clothing is also very special. I won't make a mistake."

"Why are there people from our country on the stage? What does that guy called Zhenren want to do?!"

"Idiot, don't you understand? That bastard called Zhenren just used those people as a human wall!"

People's discussions were heard one after another, and various emotions such as shock, anger, and confusion were intertwined, making the atmosphere on the scene increasingly tense.

……

Above the ring.

The real person looked at Wu Di, whose attention was attracted by the groans of ordinary people, and a sneer appeared on his face.

His arms, which had originally turned into wings, twisted and deformed again, and in the blink of an eye they turned into two shiny black gun barrels, emitting a cold and dangerous aura.

"Bang bang bang bang!"

After landing, a ferocious smile appeared on the Zhenren's face, and his hands were instantly aimed at Wu Di, like a madly running machine gun, firing bullets made of bones.

The bullets whizzed through the air with a sharp whistling sound and went straight towards Wu Di.

"asshole."

Seeing this scene, Wu Di was shocked and quickly protected the girl he had just rescued behind him, and then raised the Qinggang sword in his hand for defense. He knew that he could not dodge, if he dodged, the girl would definitely be shot into a sieve by the dense bullets of the real person.

"You'll be in my way here, get out of the ring now."

Wu Di whispered to the girl behind him. This girl was different from the four people who fell from mid-air. She was not injured because she was rescued by Wu Di in time.

A trace of fear and confusion flashed in the girl's eyes, but she said nothing and quickly ran towards the edge of the ring. This also made Wu Di secretly relieved. Fortunately, the other party was not scared silly, otherwise he would be in trouble.

"Hahaha, what a hero you are! Since you want to be a hero so much, let me see how far you can go."

On the opposite side, after seeing this scene, the real person showed a twisted smile on his face, and instantly turned one of the gun barrels away, shooting at the fleeing girl.

"Asshole, how dare you!"

Seeing this scene, Wu Di's eyes turned red and he growled angrily. He wanted to rescue, but because of the fierce fire suppression of the real person, he couldn't get away at all. He could only watch this scene anxiously.
The girl who was running to the edge of the ring also noticed this scene, and her face, which was originally full of hope, instantly revealed a look of despair.

"Stop." At this critical moment, a loud shout like a loud bell suddenly rang out.

Immediately afterwards, a layer of silver-like light seemed to descend from the sky, quickly enveloping the fleeing girl, forming an indestructible defensive barrier that accurately helped her block the incoming bullets.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw that it was the referee of the game who took action!

"Hmm?" No one had expected the referee's intervention. The real person's attack came to an abrupt halt unconsciously. He frowned, a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes, and questioned the referee:
"Referee, what do you mean? Why are you blocking my attack? According to the rules of this competition, I remember that the referee should not have the right to interfere with the fight before the contestant voluntarily admits defeat or loses the ability to resist, right? Are you trying to take sides?"

"That's right. After all, this is a competition held by the Sun-Moon Empire, and this is also the capital of the Sun-Moon Empire. If you want to be partial to the referee, then I really can't do anything about it."

"Hey, hey, hey! All the participating teams have seen this, right? The referee from the Sun-Moon Empire actually did something so unfair. Is there any need for us to participate in this competition? Just surrender and go back home quickly, and then let the Sun-Moon Empire team win the championship."

Although the real person's voice was not loud, it seemed to be endowed with magic and contained a peculiar charm. It directly penetrated the soul guide shields set up around the arena and resounded throughout the entire competition field.

Upon hearing the real person's voice, the ministers of the Sun-Moon Empire on the rostrum turned pale, as if they had been slapped in the face in public.

The Regent Xu Tianran's expression became even uglier. His brows were twisted into the shape of a "川" character, and he was secretly annoyed at the Immortal's insolence.

As the organizer of the competition, being questioned about the fairness of the event is undoubtedly a blatant provocation to the Sun-Moon Empire.

Seeing that the real person was talking more and more outrageous, the referee's face darkened. He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:

"As the referee of the Soul Master Competition, I will not favor anyone. But this is a one-on-one match. If you bring other strangers to the ring, I have the right to stop you."

The referee was from the Sun Moon Empire, so even if he wanted to take sides, he would only help the Sun Moon Empire's team. But the Ao Jian Sect was not a sect of the Sun Moon Empire, so he had no reason to help Wu Di, but he still did it.

The reason was simple. The real person had gone too far, using civilians as a human wall on the competition stage. If this kind of thing was not stopped, the impact would be too bad, and it would also damage the image of the Sun Moon Empire.

As the referee of this competition, he had actually received a hint from his superiors that some bloody people would appear in this competition, and he should just turn a blind eye to it. But when he saw the real people's actions, the referee was simply stunned. This was not only bloody, but also extremely despicable!
Due to the notice from above, the referee hesitated for a moment at the beginning and did not have time to rescue those ordinary people, causing them to fall directly to the ground.

The referee couldn't help but take action until he saw that the young girl was about to escape but the real person was not going to let her go.

Because if he was not mistaken, the clothes this girl was wearing were those of the Sun-Moon Empire, which meant that this girl was most likely a citizen of the empire.

Even the members of the Proud Sword Sect who were not citizens of the Sun-Moon Empire were willing to help the civilians of the empire. However, as a referee of the organizing committee of this competition, he chose to stand by and watch. If such a thing really happened, his career as a soul mentor would probably be over.

You know, his whole family lives in Mingdu.

"Even if I will be punished by the competition organizing committee later, I will accept it." Based on this idea, the referee took action.

Hearing the referee's words, the real person immediately looked around and said innocently, "Idle people? There are no idle people here. Are you talking about yourself?"

The referee snorted coldly and pointed at the civilians groaning on the ground. His tone was so cold that it seemed to freeze the air: "Aren't they just random people? The Soul Master Competition is a Soul Master Competition, and you and the member of the Proud Sword Sect are in a one-on-one duel."

His fingers trembled slightly, and he was obviously very angry at the shameless behavior of the real person. "In the end, you created such a large group of people. This is a serious violation of the rules of the competition."

Unexpectedly, the real person asked back: "Referee, is the use of weapons prohibited in this competition?"

The referee was stunned, frowned slightly, and said: "The competition does not prohibit the use of weapons, but..."

"Then I didn't break the rules. They are weapons." The real person interrupted the referee and pointed at the civilians around him. "Referee, you should know about summoning spirit masters. Just treat these people as my summons."

"Asshole, are you fooling me!" Seeing the indifferent expression on the real person's face, the referee was immediately furious. Even though he thought he was not a pushover, he still had the most basic conscience of being a human being.

The referee stared at Zhenren coldly, his tone filled with suppressed anger: "Zhenren, your behavior has seriously violated the purpose and rules of the Soul Master Competition. The Soul Master Competition is to showcase the strength and glory of soul masters, not for you to use innocent civilians as tools to achieve your goals!"

The real person still didn't take it seriously, spread his hands and said with a smile: "Well, it seems that I can only prove through actions that they are my summons."

As he spoke, a hideous smile appeared on his face. He ran towards a man who was groaning in pain, and regardless of the man's terrified look, he grabbed his head.

Wu Di on the side wanted to stand up to stop them, but he was slower than the real person and could only watch the other party grab the civilian.

“Inaction transforms.”

A blue light bloomed from the real person's hands, enveloping the man's body.

"what!"

Under the horrified gaze of the audience, the man's face instantly distorted, his body began to change, his bones made a "cracking" sound, his muscles kept squirming, and in the end he turned from a living person into a sword with eyes.

"Snapped!"

Then, the real person snapped his fingers again, and immediately afterwards, the bodies of the other two men and one woman who were groaning in pain quickly swelled and twisted, their skin became rough, and grew sharp thorns, and finally they turned into three deformed monsters.

"what!!!"

A painful groan came from behind the referee, causing his pupils to shrink. He quickly turned around and saw that the girl he had just rescued had also been deformed like those people.

"Save me, I am the Sun and Moon Emperor..."

Tears welled up in the girl's eyes as she stretched out her right hand towards the referee, but the next moment, her body swelled up and turned into a deformed monster. The hand she stretched out, still in a posture of asking for help, had become distorted.

"Hahahaha!"

The real man waved the sword in his hand and asked the referee: "What do you think, referee? I have already said that they are my weapons. Look, look!"

Wuwei transformation requires contact with the opponent before it can be activated, but these civilians who were thrown out are actually puppets made by Nan Fusheng using the corpses of soul beasts. So even without touching them, they can be transformed in a moment.

In order to better attract hatred, Nan Fusheng even thoughtfully prepared costumes of the four empires for these puppets.

"You bastard!"

The referee's eyes were spitting fire, and seven soul rings appeared on his body. As the referee of this competition, he could not act on impulse.

But after seeing the real person's attitude of not taking human life seriously, the referee couldn't stop the anger in his heart. The desperate look in the girl's eyes and the words she hadn't finished speaking deeply hurt the referee's heart.

The real person laughed wantonly, "What? Referee, you are not going to attack me, are you? I am a contestant in this competition. As a referee, are you going to attack me? Is this also within the rules of the competition? Hahahaha!"

The real person laughed and looked at the referee provocatively, as if he was demonstrating to him.

At this time, a long sword flashing with green light pointed at the real person.

"The referee can't hit you, but as a contestant in this tournament, I should be qualified to hit you. Keep fighting, the battle between you and me is not over yet!"

Wu Di stood up, pointed the Qinggang sword in his hand at Zhenren, and turned back to the referee and said, "Referee, the match between him and me has not been decided yet, please continue the match."

The referee looked towards the podium and after hearing a slight nod from Xu Tianran, he immediately nodded, "Okay."

"The game continues!" With the referee's announcement, the suspended game started again.

"Come on Ao Jian Zong! Come on Ao Jian Zong!"

"Kill that beast!"

"Kill him! Kill him! Kill him!"

The people of the Sun-Moon Empire began to shout wildly. The methods that the Immortal had just used had completely angered the people of the Sun-Moon Empire.

When they saw the soul masters fighting each other before, they didn't react much, because in the eyes of ordinary people without soul power, soul masters and they are not from the same world.

But after seeing ordinary people like them being toyed with so cruelly by the real person, the people of the Sun and Moon Empire immediately became outraged, because most of them were civilians!
Especially since among those killed there were actually native residents of their Sun-Moon Empire, it was inevitable that these people could empathize with them.

Even though Wu Di was not from the Sun and Moon Empire, these people still cheered for him.
