Douluo: Soul Shadow King.

Nothing happened that night, and the competition went on as scheduled the next morning.

Due to Cheng Xiao's presence, many teams from academies that knew the strength of the Seven Star Academy did not even think about competing. When it came to the Seven Star Academy, they simply chose to admit defeat. This was the fastest match.

Therefore, in the following matches, all the teams that encountered the Seven Stars Academy would give up. Of course, the team from the Xingluo Royal Academy was also among them, but their strength was not enough to require Cheng Xiao to play. Dugu Yan and others were enough to easily solve them.

Soon, the first few rounds of competition came to an end, and the top ten of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition were announced.

Seven Star Academy and Shrek Academy both made it into the top ten. When the results of the draw were announced again, the atmosphere of the finals suddenly became tense.

Shrek Academy's luck seemed to have run out in the previous rounds. Their opponent this time was the Star Luo Royal Advanced Soul Master Academy, which was the one among the three seeded teams selected by the Star Luo Empire.

However, this is not the most eye-catching. There is another more surprising match, the Spirit Hall Advanced Soul Master Academy versus the Tiandou Royal Advanced Academy.

The collision between the two teams seems to prove the fairness of the finals from the side.

Before the competition started, the top ten contestants had all entered the venue and were making final preparations and warm-ups before the competition.

"Boss Dai, what's wrong with you?" Ma Hongjun asked in confusion.

Ever since he learned the result of the draw, Dai Mubai seemed to be in an unusually low mood, completely different from his usual arrogant appearance.

However, it was not just Dai Mubai who was in a bad mood. Zhu Zhuqing also glanced at the silent and depressed Dai Mubai, then suddenly stood up and bowed to everyone.

"Zhu Qing, what are you doing?" Flanders asked with a frown after seeing this scene.

Zhu Zhuqing explained: "We must win this game. This is the last chance for Dai Mubai and I."

Oscar was a little curious and asked, "Zhu Qing, what's going on? Is there an enemy of yours in Xingluo Royal Academy?"

Zhu Zhuqing shook her head and began to explain the reasons to everyone. During the explanation, she mentioned her identity, Dai Mubai's identity, the struggle between families, and everything she had experienced after Dai Mubai escaped.

Although there was no mention of what Dai Mubai had done to her in the words, if one listened carefully, one would find that there was no derogatory tone between the lines. However, the meaning of the words slightly changed the way everyone looked at Dai Mubai.

Oscar, who knew some inside information, was even more disdainful of what Dai Mubai did. However, if Zhu Zhuqing didn't say it, he wouldn't be so mean as to say it out loud.

Dai Mubai couldn't help but raise his head and said unconvincedly, "Your words sound nice, but how can we fight for it? What can we fight for? My eldest brother is six years older than me. He is almost certain to be the heir of the family. I am just a backup. How can I fight for it?"

"You said I was corrupt. I admit that, but what can I do if I don't corrupt myself? Can I solve the current situation by practicing hard every day? Do you think that's possible?"

Dai Mubai said this, but as he spoke, his fists clenched tightly, and his eyes were filled with bloodshot. The atmosphere in the room suddenly became depressing, making it difficult to breathe.

At this moment, except for Flanders, no one in Shrek Academy had expected that Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing had such a huge background.

At this time, Tang San stretched out his right hand, stared into Dai Mubai's blood-red evil eyes, and uttered two words, "Definitely win."

Immediately afterwards, the other Shrek members also put their hands up and shouted at the same time, "We will win!"

Looking at the scene in front of him, Flanders smiled with relief. This was what the students of Shrek Academy were like. No matter what time it was, they never gave up hope.

…………

The match between Shrek Academy and Xingluo Royal Academy started soon. Led by Tang San, all the Shrek students lined up and stared quietly at the front.

In the stands, Cheng Xiao was watching this scene. Yu Tianheng stood beside him and analyzed the lineup below: "Based on the information provided by the competition, I think the lineup of Xingluo Royal Academy is much stronger than that of Shrek Academy, and it also has an advantage in terms of soul power level. What do you think?"

Hearing this, Cheng Xiao smiled and said, "That's about right. According to your analysis, Xingluo Royal Academy's chance of winning is indeed much higher than Shrek Academy's, but the fight hasn't started yet, so the outcome is still unknown."

"That makes sense." Yu Tianheng touched his chin and said with a smile, "Then I'll have to watch carefully when the fight starts. It is said that Davis from Xingluo Royal Academy and Dai Mubai from Shrek Academy seem to be brothers."

"A battle between brothers must be very interesting, right?"

On the fighting arena, with the referee's order, the battle was about to break out. Davis and Zhu Zhuyun immediately set their sights on Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing. They both knew very well that only by getting rid of the other party could they become the final heirs to the royal family of the Xingluo Empire.

The losers will be trampled under the feet of the winners for the rest of their lives, their cultivation will be destroyed, and they will be thrown into prison, never to be able to turn things around in their lives.

Therefore, this game is not just a competition, but more of a brutal battle among the royal family of the Star Luo Empire.

At the beginning of the game, the Xingluo Royal Family showed extremely strong suppression capabilities. Since Shrek did not obtain the magical grass that improved its strength in the original timeline, they were not even a complete Soul Sect team and could not cope with the fierce attack of Davis and others.

Although Tang San's fourth soul ring was a ten thousand year soul ring, his Blue Silver Grass martial soul was not taken seriously by the opponent, which led to Shrek Academy being completely disadvantaged in a head-on battle and unable to resist at all.

Fortunately, Xiao Wu used her invincible golden body to buy the team a chance to catch their breath. Dai Mubai took this opportunity to perform a martial arts fusion technique with Zhu Zhuqing, but how could they succeed when they had different intentions?
So, Davis and Zhu Zhuyun found the right opportunity, and after performing the soul fusion skill Netherworld White Tiger, they turned into a stream of purple light and rushed towards Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing. At the same time, the auxiliary soul masters of the Xingluo Empire royal family also began to exert their strength, using various amplifying soul skills on the Netherworld White Tiger, preparing to end the battle with one blow.

Dai Mubai also went crazy. He didn't want his cultivation to be ruined, and he didn't want to become a useless person. He let out a roar, and pushed his soul power to the extreme. With white light all over his body, he met the attack of the Netherworld White Tiger.

boom!
Without any surprise, under the full force of the Nether White Tiger, Dai Mubai was knocked away. He flew backwards like a cannonball and finally crashed into the ground.

At this moment, Ma Hongjun, who had not taken action for a long time, launched an attack. The two soul rings on his body flashed at the same time, and a burst of burning flames spewed out of his mouth, heading straight for the Netherworld White Tiger.

However, Ma Hongjun is not even a Soul Master now. For a Soul Master of level 30 or so to attack the martial soul fusion techniques performed by two Soul Masters is tantamount to seeking death in a cesspool.

As expected, he was beaten black and blue, and then slapped into the ground by him, along with his boss Dai.

Seeing this scene, Tang San was extremely angry, but his Blue Silver Grass could not control Davis's Nether White Tiger at all. Now, there were still five people on Shrek's side. Except for Oscar who had no combat ability, there were only Tang San, Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing and Jing Ling left.

The two agility attack spirit masters were unable to break the Nether White Tiger's defense. Xiao Wu was a strong attack spirit master, but Xingluo Royal Academy could trap her with just two people, making it impossible for her to escape. Tang San's Blue Silver Grass was said to be for control, but the Nether White Tiger tore his illusions apart. His Blue Silver Grass could not trap her!

With no other options, Tang San had to activate the Eight Spider Lance to end the game. Relying on the poison of the Eight Spider Lance, he was confident that he could eliminate the Xing Luo Royal Academy team in an instant. However, the victory of this game became unclear after the appearance of the Eight Spider Lance.

…………

"Hiss, is Tang San using his spirit bone so soon?" Yu Tianheng frowned as he watched the scene on the spirit fighting stage.

"If they don't use their spirit bones, Shrek Academy will lose." At this time, Cheng Xiao stood up, patted Yu Tianheng on the shoulder, and said, "You watch first, I'm going to go back and rest. Anyway, I don't need to participate in today's game."

Hearing this, Yu Tianheng was stunned at first, then he smiled and said: "It's all thanks to you that Yan Zi is now the trump card of our Seven Star Academy, more powerful than me."

In response, Cheng Xiao didn't say much, just waved his hand and left along the aisle of the audience seats.

Shortly after Cheng Xiao left, the battle between Shrek Academy and Xingluo Royal Academy also came to an end. To everyone's surprise, Tang San of Shrek Academy relied on the poisoning properties of the Eight Spider Lances and his flexible movement to completely turn the disadvantaged Shrek into victory.

For a moment, everyone in front of the Pope's Palace was shocked by Tang San from Shrek Academy.

Even Hu Liena and the other two from the Spirit Hall Academy found it incredible. They knew how rare external spirit bones were, but such precious spirit bones actually appeared in a teenager, and his spirit was blue silver grass. How was this possible!

If we say that Xingluo Academy showed a crushing victory at the beginning, it was a suppression of strength.

Then, Tang San's comeback made people feel even more how terrifying this young man was. He led the entire team to a comeback by himself, which really attracted people's attention.

But when everyone's attention shifted to the audience seats of the Seven Stars Academy, wanting to see the figure that terrified fellow soul masters, they helplessly discovered that there was no one left in the audience seats of the Seven Stars Academy.
Seeing such a wonderful match, Bibi Dong, the Pope, also looked at Tang San who was panting in the field and said with a smile: "Are you the master's disciple Tang San?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes were focused on Tang San, and he did not expect that his teacher was actually related to the Pope, so he immediately replied: "Yes, Your Majesty the Pope."

Bibi Dong nodded slightly and said calmly: "Your teacher has taught a good disciple. I hope you can do better in the next competition."

Then, Bibi Dong continued, "Congratulations. Tomorrow morning, Shrek Academy, Seven Star Academy, and Spirit Hall Academy will each send seven people to enter the elimination round. The two teams will have a group battle in the afternoon to compete for the last spot in the finals."

As soon as the voice fell, the master, who was delighted because Tang San had turned defeat into victory, said: "Please wait a moment!"

"......?" The cardinal who was the referee frowned slightly. After Bibi Dong nodded, he asked the master: "Leader of Shrek Academy, do you have any questions?"

"We, the Shrek Academy, voluntarily give up the individual elimination match tomorrow morning and enter the loser group in the afternoon to compete for the last spot in the finals," said the master with a gleam in his eyes and a cold smile.

The master suddenly announced the decision to let Shrek give up the individual competition, which shocked everyone in the audience. Even the people from Shrek were all shocked and confused, except Tang San who fell into deep thought.

Obviously, they didn't know the master would make such a choice.

Bibi Dong looked calm and asked, "Why?"

The master put his hands behind his back, looked up at Bibi Dong on the high platform of the Pope's Palace, and said calmly: "No reason, I think it is our right to admit defeat."

The Grandmaster's words rang out in front of the Pope's Palace like a bolt from the blue. There was nothing wrong with his words themselves, but the problem was the person he was talking to, that was the supreme ruler of the Spirit Hall, Pope Bibi Dong!
"Haha, you're right." Bibi Dong's face condensed slightly, and she nodded to the master. "You're right, this is your power. Blame me for asking unnecessary questions. Sorry, Elder Yu."

When these words were spoken, everyone in the audience was shocked. This middle-aged man who was not even at level 30 as a spirit master and dared to contradict the Pope was actually an elder of the Spirit Hall?
All the soul masters present who were above level 60 could see that the Grandmaster himself was not very strong, and was not even at level 40. If someone else had said that he was an elder of the Spirit Hall, people would probably have sneered at him. But the one who said this was the Pope, so who would dare to refute him?
At the same time, worship the temple.

While all the guards of the Spirit Hall were on duty in the Pope's Hall, a figure swaggered up the stairs of the Spirit Hall. At this moment, if someone was here, they would find that this person was none other than the elder of the Spirit Hall, the leader of the Holy Dragon Sect, Kuo Baxi.

"It's interesting. The guards of this Spirit Hall are similar to my soldiers. It's a pity that they are still too weak." Kuobaxi turned around and saw that at the bottom of the stairs, there were human-shaped ice sculptures standing. These people were all Templar Knights responsible for guarding the Offering Hall.

But now, they were all frozen into human-shaped ice sculptures without exception, and had completely lost their lives.

"Let me see what good things are here." Kuobashi tapped his fingers lightly, and the terrifying magic power quickly left his body, and then turned into a huge barrier, covering the entire Spirit Hall Mountain.

As the magic power spread, everything in the hall was fed back into Kubashi's mind. When his magic power swept over the six-winged angel statue, he was startled at first, and then he became irritable.

“The statue of a ruler? No, this doesn’t seem to be a ruler…” Kuobashi’s eyes shone with a cold luster, and he suddenly laughed wildly, “No matter if he is a ruler or not, even if a ruler is here, I will kill him without hesitation!”

At this moment, terrifying extreme cold magic power burst out, and the King of Cold who possessed Kuabashi left his body. The huge magic power even made the entire sacred mountain begin to tremble slightly. The plants around that had never withered in all four seasons completely withered under the cover of extreme cold.

As soon as this terrifying magical power was released, several Titled Douluo in the Worship Hall immediately sensed it.

Inside the magnificent hall, several figures were sitting and standing.

"Golden Crocodile, take the other brothers down. This is not something you can solve." A blond old man in a red robe said in a low voice at the head.

Hearing this, the other priests looked at each other. Demon Subduing Douluo wanted to say something, but was stopped by Qianjun Douluo with a look. After hearing what his eldest brother said, the second priest, Golden Crocodile Douluo, was silent for a while and said, "Yes, Great Priest."

Afterwards, several worshippers left one after another and slowly exited the hall.

After everyone left, Qian Daoliu slowly opened his eyes, with flames faintly burning in his golden pupils. He stood up, bowed slightly to the six-winged god statue behind him, and said, "This time, I need to borrow your divine power, Lord Angel God."

…………

boom!
As the ice crystals spread, the gate of the worship hall was completely frozen at this moment, and the King of Cold just waved his hand casually, and the gate shattered into pieces.

After using magic to investigate, it was discovered that the purpose of the King of Cold's trip was to see how powerful the ruler enshrined by this planet was. In other words, his purpose today was to kill people.

As soon as he stepped into the hall, the terrifying extreme cold magic caused the temperature in the entire hall to drop sharply, and everything in the hall was frozen, except for the six-winged angel statue in the center of the hall, which held a huge golden sword in its hand pointing straight to the sky. The most peculiar thing was that there was a layer of faint golden flame swirling around the golden sword.

"I've been waiting for so long, why? Why don't you come out?" The King of Bitter Cold stood still, staring at the huge statue of the god. The next moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him, with a golden sword in his hand emitting a faint sense of oppression.

"King of creatures from other worlds, this is not the place you should come to." Qian Daoliu's voice was gentle, as if he was greeting an old friend.

"Huh?" The King of Bitter Cold felt incredible, but he walked towards Qian Daoliu with a nonchalant look on his face. Every time he stepped on the ground, the ground would tremble.

Qian Daoliu's expression remained gentle, as if he was not angry at the behavior of the King of Cold. However, when the King of Cold took the seventh step, a dazzling golden flame burst out from the Holy Sword of Angel in his hand.

"Borrowed the power of higher-level life?" The King of Cold grinned, then raised his hands and made a strange movement. Under his movement, puppets made of ice began to appear on the ground.

At the same time, thousands of energy streams began to flow, and he who was known as the invincible in the sky, aimed his move directly at the head of the King of Bitter Cold.

I saw nine soul rings emerging from his body, eight black and one red!
"The third soul skill, Sword of Judgment!" Qian Daoliu's eyes flashed with golden light, and the Holy Angel Sword in his hand condensed into a huge golden sword shadow, which then slashed away fiercely.

Boom!

All the ice puppets that pounced on him were suddenly broken down in mid-air. The Natural Holy Sword was burning with raging flames. Although these ice puppets were powerful, they were far from being able to withstand the burning of the holy flames.

"boom!"

With one sword, Qian Daoliu cut off the ice puppet that was running towards him, and the six wings on his back spread out. He rushed straight into the sky, and then he looked down at the King of Bitter Cold, and the seventh soul ring on his body began to shine.

"The seventh soul skill, the true form of an angel!"

With the release of the seventh soul skill, a huge six-winged angel phantom appeared behind Qian Daoliu, and the angel phantom appeared. At this time, Qian Daoliu gathered all the soul power in his body towards the angel holy sword in his hand.

The sword body began to tremble due to the gathering soul power. The golden flames condensed on the shaking sword body distorted the surroundings.

At this moment, the King of Bitter Cold realized something was wrong, because he felt a force from this man that was enough to seriously injure himself. That force was not from the man himself, but from the angel shadow behind him, the power of a higher level of life!

"You bastard!" The King of Bitter Cold was angry. He was a king, the king of the people in this chaotic world!
The King of Bitter Cold grabbed with his hand and took out his ice bow from the subspace. The next moment, an ice arrow condensed with extreme cold power was shot towards Qian Daoliu.

Whoosh!
In Qian Daoliu's eyes, the moment the ice arrow was shot out, it turned into a rain of thousands of arrows. After a while, the sky full of ice arrows shot towards him accurately.

"The fourth soul skill, Angel Eyes!"

Qian Daoliu used his remaining soul power to activate his fourth soul skill. In mid-air, a golden eye suddenly flashed. In an instant, a rain of swords formed by countless sacred soul powers met with thousands of ice arrows.

The speed at which the two intersected was so fast that one could even see their afterimages overlapping. It is conceivable that if either of them was attacked at this level, it would be pierced through and turned into a hedgehog.

"Ninth Soul Skill, God...Judgment!"

As the four words were slowly uttered, a dazzling light bloomed on Qian Daoliu's body. At this moment, the terrifying soul power in the air began to gather in his body. The Holy Sword of Heaven held high in both hands emitted a blazing flame. The phantom of an angel behind him was holding the Holy Sword high in the air, and her eyes were filled with sacred flames.

"Foolish human, you are facing the King of Cold!" The King of Cold let out a terrifying magical roar, but he knew that this was not the world he belonged to, and the strength he could exert was less than half of his full strength, but so what?
The King of Cruel Cold, who still looked down on Qian Daoliu, transformed his body into a spirit body. Maintaining the spiritual body required a large amount of physical strength, but at the same time, he could also exert all of his own strength. Only in this way could he completely kill the man in front of him.

"Taste the horror of the cold, you tiny human!"

The King of Bitter Cold turned into a terrible ice storm that covered everything. The hall, which was already crumbling due to the two forces, began to collapse. Wind and snow began to rage, and the magic barrier that enveloped the entire Spirit Hall's mountain began to crack. The originally sunny sky became overcast and gloomy.

The cold king who had become an ice storm looked down at the man with golden eyes and roared like thunder.

"That's my power, human!"

Tens of thousands of ice spears formed by the condensation of magic crystals in the air gradually became like a blizzard. Each ice spear contained enough power to kill a Titled Douluo. At this time, the King of Cold launched a terrifying attack with all his strength, which was also a terrifying attack that Qian Daoliu felt.

The dome of the worship hall collapsed at some point, and the frozen pillars in the hall were all blown to pieces by the biting cold wind.

But despite this, Qian Daoliu still did not retreat a single step. All the soul power in his body was burning, transforming into wisps of golden light floating towards the raised angel holy sword. Facing the endless blizzard of ice spears, the sacred energy barrier in front of him began to break.

The King of Bitter Cold did not relax at all. He roared, "Soldiers!"

Before anyone knew it, the accumulated snow had submerged the temple of worship. Ice puppets formed by magic power emerged one by one, and there were tens of thousands of them!
"kill him!"

Receiving instructions from the king, the ice puppets all rushed towards Qian Daoliu, but they were all melted into a pool of ice water by the burning sacred barrier.

Seeing that his soldiers were unable to capture Qiandaoliu for a long time, the King of Cold became very angry. In fact, he could not blame his soldiers, after all, this was not an extremely cold place, nor was it his home ground.

The sacred flames of the Angel God completely suppressed the extremely cold magic of the King of Cold. If Qian Daoliu had not borrowed the power of the Angel God, he would not have been able to hold on for such a long time, not to mention his ninth soul skill which required a lot of time to release.

"You are just a human being, relying on the power of a higher being, yet you dare to be so presumptuous in front of the king!" A chilling breath immediately burst out from the mouth of the angry and cold king.

But in the next moment, a sacred golden light suddenly burst out from Qian Daoliu's eyes. He stared at the angry King of Bitter Cold, raised the sacred sword high, and chopped it down heavily!

This sword seemed to tear the space apart. This sword was the result of Qian Daoliu gathering all his life's strength and condensing it with the help of the power of the angel god. This sword was enough to severely damage the King of Cold!

hum!
The King of Cold felt the terrifying energy that was about to tear him apart, so he quickly opened his icy world to protect himself.

But at this moment, the sacred flame waves released from the surroundings, centered on the sacred sword in Qian Daoliu's hand, swept across the dark ice puppets.

A sword filled with divine power shattered the frozen world of the King of Cold, and all that remained were the remains of the ice puppets that had been burned into mist. It even destroyed the blizzard he had brought with it.

"I am the king! The King of Cold!"

The spiritualized King of Frost has gone completely crazy. He will do anything at all costs, even forcibly overdrawing the spiritualized magic power to condense it into a high-speed rotating extremely cold ice spear. The terrifying magic power is concentrated on the ice spear. This is an attack in which he gambles all his strength!
Boom!

With a huge roar, the worship hall that had stood for a thousand years on the sacred mountain of the Spirit Hall exploded. The horrifying magical fluctuations destroyed the magic barrier set up by the King of Cold. At this moment, the sacred mountain of the Spirit Hall began to tremble violently, and several worshippers who were ordered to leave by Qian Daoliu flew into the air at the first opportunity.

They looked at the destroyed temple with an expression of incredible shock on their faces. This was the temple that had been guarded by the Qian family for generations and the residence of the statue of the angel god!

Their chief worshipper, the ninety-nine-level peerless Douluo, the sky-invincible Qian Daoliu, they dared not to sense any breath!

"Find it for me, find it!" The moment he couldn't sense Qian Daoliu, Golden Crocodile Douluo roared and screamed as if he had gone crazy.

The other priests didn't waste any time. After concentrating their soul power on their bodies, they rushed into the ruins of the worship hall and began to look for their chief priest.

As everyone was searching, an inconspicuous white light flew out quietly and then quickly disappeared. (End of this chapter)
