Douluo: Yun Ming in the Spirit Hall Era

Chapter 266: The Seven Sects Are Initially Decided
"Hu Yanzhen won."

In fact, this prediction was not difficult. As the passive defender, Hu Yanzhen only retreated half a step after the initial confrontation, while Huo Bao, the attacker, was pushed back three steps, and Hu Yanzhen's trunk was not even injured. How can you win if you can't break the defense?

The outcome of the confrontation between Huyan Zhen and Huo Bao was determined by their different levels of cultivation, but more importantly by the difference in their martial spirits.

Although the Huyan family is only one of the lower four clans, their family martial spirit "Diamond Mammoth" is the strongest among the top martial spirits, not inferior to the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex. Its strength and defense have reached the level of the same level of the Force Clan and the Defense Clan. It can reach the level of two extreme schools and families at the same time, which shows how powerful this martial spirit is.

The result was not unexpected by Yun Ming. Their battle was like a clash between a spear and a shield. When the spear could not break the shield, how could they win? They could not win.

After Huobao had launched several fruitless attacks at Huyan Zhen, he also tried to speed up by circling around Huyan Zhen, increasing his speed and impact force to the limit that he could control, and launching the final attack. However, even so, he still could not exceed the defense limit of Huyan Zhen. Not only did he still fail to break through the defense, but Huobao also injured himself due to the recoil.

Seeing this shitty result again, even though Huobao was full of resentment, he finally admitted defeat because his Fire Leopard Sect still needed him to continue fighting.

After a round of battle, the earth-type soul masters of the Spirit Hall immediately came up to quickly clean the ground and level it out for the next battle.

Soon, the first round of the clan competition was over. After watching this round of competition, Yun Ming had a rough idea of ​​which families would be selected.

First, there are two sects that are basically certain to win all the rounds. One is the Elephant Armor Sect, because no one in his group can break through the defense of the Diamond Mammoth, and it is also difficult for other groups. The other is the sect called the Holy Dragon Sect.

Both sects won all the victories, but the difference was that the Elephant Armor Sect relied on their comprehensive strength. In one round of three battles, they fielded three Soul Douluos, focusing on their deep foundation. But the Holy Dragon Sect was different, they relied on an army of one person and a clan leader to win everything.

The inherited martial spirit of the Holy Dragon Sect is called the White Armor Earth Dragon, which is a kind of earth dragon martial spirit with high defense. Compared with the real dragon martial spirit of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, it is still far behind. The strength of the martial spirit may be comparable to that of the Fire Leopard, or even slightly worse in terms of overall strength. However, this family can be highly regarded by Yunming because they have a talented patriarch, Tuoba Xi.

It was not only Yun Ming who noticed Tuoba Xi, but also two other Dragon Douluo with the same title.

Dugu Bo, who had come specially to watch the fun, exclaimed softly.

"There's something wrong with Tuoba Xi's aura! It feels a bit weird."

Gu Rong also nodded in response.

"There's something wrong."

However, the two of them were not quite sure what was wrong. After all, most people do not have a clear sense of their past aura.

Yun Ming directly revealed the answers to the two people's questions.

"Is it because Tuoba Xi's martial spirit is about to advance?"

Dugu Bo was a little shocked and asked in confusion.

"Martial Soul Advancement? Could it be that he has also (taken the Immortal Grass)?"

In public, Dugu Bo did not explain clearly, but Yun Ming and Gu Rong also understood what he meant.

Yun Ming denied.

"Advancement is not evolution, it is the result of practice. Just like the transition from a Green Scaled Snake to a Green Scaled Snake King."

The surface of a soul master's cultivation is to cultivate soul power, but in essence, he is cultivating his martial soul, which is the origin.

Regardless of the quality of the starting martial soul, with the growth of cultivation and the addition of each soul ring, the individual's martial soul is actually slowly getting stronger. Even the most powerful martial souls are the same. Unleashing the potential of the martial soul itself is also a way to become stronger. It may not be as fast and obvious as directly eating fairy grass, but it does exist.

There are far more powerful people in the future than now. In addition to the improvement of cultivation methods, a strong martial soul is also a key. There are far more types of powerful martial souls in the future than now. Excluding the intrusion of some soul beast bloodlines, the others are mostly accumulated by predecessors. The martial souls that may not be powerful at first are passed on to the younger generations through bloodlines. The martial souls are optimized and iterated in the practice of generations.

This was the case with Dugu Bo's Green Scaled Snake and Green Scaled Snake King, and it was the same with Tuoba Xi now. Every soul master has this experience, and once Yun Ming brought it up, Gu Rong and Dugu Bo understood what it meant. But if this is the case, then isn't this Tuoba Xi? ! !

A thought appeared in the minds of several people around at the same time. Yun Ming nodded to confirm their thoughts. Yes, Tuoba Xi is about to break through the title. This is his judgment, it should be a few years.

This time, the way Ning Fengzhi and the others looked at Tuoba Xi was different, because the title was different.

Besides these two, Yun Ming felt that the last two were most likely to be from the Black Tiger Sect, Wind Sword Sect, Fire Leopard Sect, Rock Antelope Sect, and Sparrow Bee Sect. Two old brands, four sects, and three dark horse rookies.

After the first round, the sixteen participating sects had an understanding of their respective opponents, which had a great impact on the second round.

There are some obvious groups that have a chance to advance, such as the group of Elephant Armor and Fire Leopard. The other two groups know that they have no chance and decisively withdraw. Anyway, there is no chance, why fight to the death? The explosive fighting can only cause trouble for others, and it will not advance. Isn't it also a pain for yourself in the future? The world of soul masters is not about fighting and killing, but about human relationships!
As such, the promotion results of this group were naturally no surprise, with the Elephant Armor Sect coming first and the Fire Leopard Sect coming second.

But there were some groups that were not so obvious to advance, such as the Wind Sword Sect, the Rock Antelope Sect, and the Sparrow Bee Sect. Except for one sect that was at the bottom of the group, the other three sects were very close in strength. These three sects fought like crazy in the second round. Except for the one that lost all six games, the other three sects were beaten to a pulp.

Finally, the slightly stronger Wind Sword Sect and the Sparrow Bee Sect, which had the advantage of martial spirit, advanced to the next round, ranking first and second respectively. The Rock Antelope Sect, one of the seven new sects in the original time and space, was eliminated early.

As for the other two groups, the Holy Dragon Sect and the Black Tiger Sect each won first place in their respective groups and advanced. The second place in the remaining two groups had a clear gap with the other six sects. Their only chance of success was to draw the Wind Sword Sect, which had fought four bloody games, and succeed in stealing the game.

This marks the end of the first day of competition.

On the second day, the eight sects finished drawing lots and started fighting against each other.

The two free boy sects were unlucky and did not draw the Wind Sword Sect, but instead drew the two strongest sects, the Holy Dragon Sect and the Elephant Armor Sect, and were naturally eliminated. However, the Wind Sword Sect was also unlucky and picked the strongest Fire Leopard Sect in the second round, which was a complete failure. As for the Sparrow Bee Sect, their result was determined at the end of the first round. Their top masters were seriously injured, and they could not beat the other three first places. In the end, they met the Black Tiger Sect and were eliminated without any surprise.

The Fengjian Sect and the Quefeng Sect, two of the seven new sects in the original time and space, also withdrew from this election.

The primary election ended, and Ju Douluo Yue Guan appeared and announced the results.

"First of all, congratulations to the Soul-Breaking Sect (the Breaking Clan), the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Sect, the Elephant Armor Sect, the Holy Dragon Sect, the Black Tiger Sect, and the Fire Leopard Sect for being selected as the seven sects."

"Failed sects don't need to be discouraged. As long as they don't give up, there will always be a chance to make a comeback."

After speaking a long paragraph of official speech, Ju Douluo announced the final ranking of the seven sects.

"Three days later, the Seven Sects Qualifying Tournament will officially begin in front of the Pope's Palace. His Majesty the Pope will personally announce the specific rules at that time."

"Finally, I wish you all good luck in fighting!"

After that, everyone left.

Yun Ming said to Yang Wudi and Yang Wutian beside him.

"Grandpas, have you thought about my proposal the day before yesterday?"

After entering Wuhun City that day, Yun Ming saw the reactions of Yang Wutan and the other man and made a suggestion. Now it was time to make a decision.

The two old men looked at each other and felt that it was very exciting. Although they didn't know what the result would be, they still decided. Yang Wutian gritted his teeth and said.

"Okay, let's do it! Let's fight."
-
ps: Diamond Mammoth is very good, not a canned second setting, but it is very good in the original book. This is the first super martial spirit in the Douluo series that is clearly written in the original book. In terms of combat record, Tang San used the Sea God Trident to charge a single strike but failed to penetrate Hu Yanzhen's body, which is also a bit of a basis. However, considering that this family does not even have a title, its cultivation is really a bit lagging, so it is better not to put it on par with the Sky-lifting Spear, so it was changed to the top level.
