Douluo Tang San, stop rolling around

Chapter 24 Life and Death Fighting Spirit
In the afternoon, everyone at Shrek gathered again at the academy playground. They stood in a row. Flanders in the front asked, "Oscar, have you and Ning Rongrong finished your physical training this morning?"

Oscar glanced at Ning Rongrong and replied, "It's done."

After a moment of silence, Flanders turned to Ning Rongrong and asked, "Ning Rongrong, have you finished running?"

Seeing this, Xu Dongyang had already made some guesses. As expected, Ning Rongrong did not listen to his advice and complete the physical training. Then Flanders had a conflict with Ning Rongrong. During the conflict, Ning Rongrong used the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect as an excuse to give Flanders a cold shoulder. It was also the first time that everyone knew Ning Rongrong's witch nature.

In the end, just like in the original novel, Ning Rongrong gave in, and Oscar was punished for concealing the truth. A group of people waited on the playground for Ning Rongrong and Oscar to finish running 20 laps.

It was not until the evening that the two returned to the team, but Ning Rongrong's eyes were a little moist.

Afterwards, Flanders led everyone to the Great Fighting Spirit Arena. During this time, Tang San asked Xu Dongyang in a puzzled voice, "Where are we going? Aren't we going to class?"

"The next course should be held in the Soto City Soul Fighting Arena. As the name suggests, the Soul Fighting Arena is where soul masters compete. It is a good place for soul masters to hone their combat skills." On the way, Xu Dongyang explained the rules of the Soul Fighting Arena to Tang San, including the types of competitions, badge types, etc.

Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing beside them also listened silently.

Afterwards, the group quickly arrived at the gate of the Soto City Great Fighting Spirit Arena. As they entered, Flanders said to everyone:
"Your graduation requirement is to obtain the gold fighting spirit badge of the fighting spirit arena, and Xu Dongyang's requirement is the ruby ​​badge."

"Why does he require the ruby ​​level?" Ning Rongrong, who had been silent all the way, asked for the first time.

Ma Hongjun boasted, "Because Dong Ge is strong, he won more than a hundred consecutive games during the Soul Master period, but his advancement to Soul Sect was interrupted. Now he has a sapphire fighting spirit badge, and is only one level away from a ruby. You know, Boss Dai and I are still hovering around the iron badge."

The three of them showed surprise on their faces. Although they knew that Xu Dongyang was powerful, they did not expect that he could maintain more than a hundred consecutive victories among the Soul Masters of the same level. The three of them looked at Xu Dongyang as if he were a monster.

The group soon arrived at the box of the Fighting Spirit Arena. As a sapphire badge player of the Fighting Spirit Arena, Xu Dongyang naturally had privileges.

"That's great! When will I have this treatment?" Oscar looked at the luxurious decoration in the box with envy on his face.

Dai Mubai walked up to him, patted his shoulder and teased, "Wake up, don't sleep, you are just a food-type soul master."

Afterwards, everyone signed up for the competition. Most of them were one-on-one competitions, except for Oscar and Ning Rongrong, who were two-on-two. Oscar was in a group with Ma Hongjun, while Ning Rongrong chose to be in a group with Zhu Zhuqing.

At this time, Xu Dongyang said to Flanders: "Dean, I plan to sign up for the life-and-death duel. I feel that I have reached a bottleneck in my cultivation recently and want to challenge my limits."

Flanders thought for a while and nodded in agreement. In his opinion, with Xu Dongyang's strength, no one in the Soul Sect could kill him.

Xu Dongyang then signed up for the life-and-death fight with the staff, who looked at him in shock and asked for confirmation several times before going through the process.

Soon everyone in the private room prepared for their own competitions, only Xu Dongyang sat cross-legged to rest. Perhaps because he was too famous, the Fighting Spirit Arena intended to let him fight last, and it would not be his turn until after the Shrek group finished their competitions.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Tonight we have a grand finale. The legendary contestant "Dancer", who emerged two years ago and has set a record of more than 100 consecutive wins, will challenge the Soul King with his Soul Sect cultivation at the No. 1 Soul Fighting Arena tonight. It will be a life-and-death battle!"

"ladies and gentlemen!"

"Ladies and gentlemen!" The announcement resounded throughout the fighting arena and was repeated three times.

"Bang! Are you crazy? I asked you to participate in the Soul Sect Life and Death Fight, but you ran to sign up for the Soul King Life and Death Fight?" Flanders slammed the table and stood up and shouted angrily.

"Okay, Dean, I'm going to the competition. If you have any anger, you can vent it when I come back." Xu Dongyang knew that Flanders was confused because of his concern, so he didn't argue with him. He waved his hand and left in the shocked eyes of the Shrek people.

"Dean, I believe Dong Ge can win!" Xiao Wu looked at Flanders with a firm gaze and comforted him. She was the person who was most worried about Xu Dongyang in the field, but she was also the one who believed in Xu Dongyang the most.

Tang San looked at Flanders and asked, "Dean, does a life-and-death fight end only when one side dies?"

Flanders shook his head and explained, "No, it's over once one side admits defeat, but the rules of the life and death fight are that no one is held responsible if someone dies, and both sides can go all out. Most of the time, many people are killed on the spot before they have time to admit defeat, so the fight is quite brutal, and the soul masters who participate in the life and death fight are much stronger than normal soul masters."

On the other side, Xu Dongyang put on a smiley mask after leaving and walked in the corridor leading to the main fighting arena. He was concentrating on accumulating strength in order to cope with the upcoming tough battle. Soon he came to the exit passages on both sides of the fighting arena.

Before he entered the fighting arena, he could hear the noisy crowd outside. As he walked out of the passage, he saw a sea of ​​people. The hall was full of guests and thousands of spectators were looking at him. If it were someone else, they would definitely be stage fright, but Xu Dongyang walked towards the fighting arena without changing his expression.

"The next match is the final one-on-one life-and-death soul fight on the first main soul fighting stage. The next to appear are Soul Sect 'Dancer', who has the weapon spirit 'Ruyi Stick' and has set a record of 100 consecutive victories, and Soul King Crazy Rhino, who has the beast spirit 'Iron Horn Crazy Rhino'."

"On one side is a legendary player who is good at creating miracles, and on the other side is a veteran Soul King. The soul power of the two is very different. Can the Soul Master "Dancer" who fights against the Soul King create miracles again? Let us wait and see!"

As the host finished his introduction, the audience began to discuss.

"No, really fight? Can you win this?"

"Win? I don't think it's possible. How can a Soul Sect challenge a Soul King? Do you really think that Soul King is a piece of cake?"

"I think it's just a show, overestimating one's own abilities!"

There was a lot of discussion in the venue, but most of them were not optimistic about Xu Dongyang.

When Xu Dongyang stepped onto the fighting arena, he saw a man with a rough appearance, tall and strong build, broad shoulders like a city wall, and the sleeveless leather jacket on his body could not hide his strong muscles like cast iron. His bare arms were as thick as ordinary people's thighs, his face was fierce and ferocious, with a faint bloody aura on his body, which gave people an invisible sense of forced oppression.

The two stood face to face on the fighting arena. The atmosphere was tense. The man grinned and taunted, "I know you are a genius, but you are overestimating yourself if you want to challenge the Soul King. Don't get carried away just because you have a little talent. I will let you understand the cruelty of the world of soul masters."

Xu Dongyang stood there calmly like a piece of wood. He had no interest in this kind of pre-war trash talk. His breathing was steady and powerful. Under his calm surface, there was a restless heart. His spirit was sublimating, and his heart was excited. He longed for the upcoming battle. He longed for a hearty battle.

Even he himself could not imagine that he actually had the attribute of a martial arts fanatic. He could not help but instinctively want to challenge his limits and pursue excitement.

"Game start!"
