Douluo: Lin Dong Travels Through Huo Yuhao

Chapter 48: Destruction of the Scapegoat

The atmosphere on the field suddenly became somewhat silent. After a moment, Micah took a step forward and said softly:
"Anyway, I lost to you. Your spirit skills plus your own combat ability are indeed stronger than mine. I will go to the preliminary team."

Unexpectedly, a hand suddenly stretched out to stop him. Chen An protected him behind him and said softly:

"Forget it, I'll go to the preliminary team. Didn't your armor get perfected a few days ago? And you have long-range attack capabilities. This team needs you. You're stronger than me in terms of strength. Let Lin Dong replace me."

As soon as he finished speaking, he walked straight behind Xiao Hongchen. Seeing this, Lin Dong clapped his hands and said with a smile:
"Everyone, can you listen to me? I think I should join the preliminary team."

Different from the astonishment of others, Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen's eyes lit up instantly. Before Meng Hongchen opened his mouth, Xiao Hongchen said excitedly:
“Yeah, Lin Dong, I knew you were just talking and you wouldn’t really abandon me.”

Lin Dong's eyebrows twitched, and he suppressed the urge to beat him up, and explained softly:

"I also understand what the captain said just now. There is essentially no difference between the preliminaries and the regulars except for their strength. My goal is just to get a spot in the individual competition."

"In this case, there is no need for me to insist on a starting position. Besides, my spirit skills are quite demanding. If I encounter a weak opponent in the competition, there is no need for me to use them."

After hearing Lin Dong's explanation, Ma Rulong smiled and nodded:

"It is indeed as you said. There are only a few teams that pose a threat to the competition, and we cannot always rely on your spirit skills. So I will have to let you be a preliminary player for the time being."

After hearing this, Lin Dong spread his hands and said calmly, "It doesn't matter. As long as I can achieve my goal, my identity is not important."

"Yes, yes, Ben Tiancai and Meng are both in the qualifying team. Does this mean that we are not as good as them? Our qualifying team is not worse than the regular team."

Hearing Xiao Hongchen's words, Ma Rulong nodded in agreement:
"The situation in our academy should be quite special. The preliminaries of other teams are all preparing for the next competition. In addition to Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen, you have appeared. The expressions of other teams should be quite interesting by then."

Xiao Hongchen also said excitedly: "I can't even imagine how others will react when they see the explosive cooperation between you and this genius."

"Xiao, didn't you say you were going to try your best to catch up with him? I think you are trying to curry favor with him."

Meng Hongchen's subtle finishing blow froze Xiao Hongchen's smile, and he immediately blushed and said righteously:

"Don't talk nonsense, Meng. I am a genius only for the academy. What do you mean by sucking up to someone? What you said is really rude."

Meng Hongchen just smiled noncommittally and didn't waste any words with him. He turned his head and looked at Lin Dong and said with a smile:

"Your Ultimate Ice should also have a certain amplification effect on my Zhuqing Ice Toad. You are now a panacea that everyone wants."

Lin Dong smiled faintly: "Then I can't give it to everyone. Okay, stop talking nonsense, let's try to practice teamwork."

"I can't ask for it."

Everyone shouted excitedly. They wanted to see how strong the teamwork could be with Lin Dong's help.

Ma Rulong suddenly said, "How about, you be the commander of the game when you are here, Lin Dong."

Lin Dong was stunned when he heard this. The commander is the most important role in a team. He usually represents the core of the team and is easily seen by more people. Ma Rulong is actually willing to give this position to him?
Looking at Lin Dong's smile, Ma Rulong chuckled and explained:
"Your soul skills can take care of everyone on the field, and your thoughts are transmitted faster than any of us. You are undoubtedly the most suitable person for this role."

"Yes, Lin Dong, only you can handle this task." Lin Xi also echoed Ma Rulong. Lin Dong hesitated for a while, then smiled and said:

"Let me try. I'm a simple and rough person. I'm only responsible for making my choices based on the situation on the field. I don't know much about tactics."

"That's great, let's get started, I can't wait."

At Ma Rulong's command, Xiao Hongchen and his sister retreated to the outside of the field, and everyone formed a line and began to coordinate.

Shrek Academy, student dormitory.

Wang Dong lay on a simple single bed, stuffed his head into the pillow in annoyance, and muttered irritably:

"Still can't do anything...Damn Dai Huabin, maybe I shouldn't have come here"

This proud little princess of the Haotian Sect has lost several times in a row to the soul fusion techniques of Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu during the more than half a year since she came to the academy. With her proud character, she naturally cannot withstand such a blow.

Wang Dong tossed and turned, his mind constantly recalling the fight that ended today. At the last moment, Cao Jinxuan finally hit Dai Huabin with the Time Lock.

If he had not been affected by the soul guide thrown by Zhu Lu, he would have been able to use his soul skills to defeat Dai Huabin at that time.

Maybe she could win the only victory in half a year. Wang Dong became angrier and angrier as he thought about it. He couldn't help but complain loudly:
"What's wrong with me? Why am I so resistant to soul guides? Who is so damned to treat me like this? I'm going to find my eldest and second uncles to beat him to death!"

Spirit world.

Tang San, who had been feeling rather upset recently, suddenly felt his eyebrows twitch, his expression gloomy, and his tone full of anger:

"How come my plan has deviated so much? How can the common people in the lower realm have the ability to change my plan?

Destruction, damn it, it must be you, you want to destroy this God King's ten thousand year plan, when this King tames the rising star in the lower world, then it will be the day of your death!"

While the two were performing the drama of loving father and filial daughter, Lin Dong had already finished his first team cooperation. Xiao Hongchen was looking at everyone with envy below.

“Alas, this genius also wants to have some fun with Lin Dong. The feeling of hitting the target accurately is something that can only happen a few times in a lifetime.”

When Meng Hongchen heard what he said, he covered his ears, glared at him with shame and anger, and said in a sharp voice:
"Xiao, are you hiding something in your room? Listen to what you are saying! It's so vulgar and unbearable to hear!"

The people who had just finished training stopped praising Lin Dong and were attracted by Meng Hongchen's sharp explosion. They looked at the two of them with suspicion.

Xiao Hongchen covered Meng Hongchen's mouth with his hand, smiled awkwardly and shook his head:

"No, no, we were talking about your training just now. With Lin Dong, it is indeed fast and accurate. Don't listen to Meng's nonsense."

Ma Rulong was also full of excitement, not hiding his praise for Lin Dong at all, and laughed:
"Of course, with Lin Dong, we will definitely be invincible in this team competition!"
