Douluo: Starting from the Nine-Curved Vine Dragon

Chapter 359 Laziness
Such is the rule of the world, because only in this way can there be enough soul power to support support-type soul masters in providing amplifying soul skills to six teammates at the same time in team battles.

As time went on, Li Cang gradually realized this as well.

But several minutes had already passed, and his soul power had been nearly half depleted.

Given the current situation, Li Cang is already in a difficult predicament.

He now has two choices: one is to admit defeat, but that would mean all his previous efforts would be wasted; the other is to continue fighting and gamble that Ning Rongrong's soul power will be consumed more than his own.

"The fat guy has always been lucky, hopefully he can borrow some of that luck from me this time."

A few more minutes passed.

Seeing that Li Cang's soul power was almost exhausted, Ning Rongrong took the initiative to admit defeat.

Even if they continue fighting, Li Cang will be the first to run out of soul power, and Ning Rongrong will win the match and successfully defend her title.

But that's not what she wants. Her goal for today's individual competition is to severely injure at least two of the God Inheritors from the Eat & Drink team.

At this moment, Li Cang, whose soul power was mostly depleted, was the best target.

She didn't have the ability to seriously injure Li Cang, so admitting defeat and handing the task over to those two was the right thing to do.

After Ning Rongrong conceded defeat, she walked off the stage amidst the bewildered gazes of the crowd.

The fourth round of the individual competition has ended, and the fifth round has begun.

Team number one, the Wind and Fire Team, sends out a challenger to the stage.

Before going on stage, Feng Xiaotian secretly consulted with Yun Hui and decided not to go himself, but instead sent Huo Wushuang up.

Without a doubt, Huo Wushuang, who only had the cultivation of a Soul King, was a loser. He conceded defeat as soon as he appeared, and the team with the second draw was quickly moved on to the stage.

Of the three divine inheritors of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Ning Rongrong and Oscar both lost the match, so only Yun Hui had the strength and means to seriously injure Li Cang.

Li Cang is the inheritor of the God of Speed, possessing unparalleled speed granted by the divine artifact Wings of Freedom. Feng Xiaotian has no means to counter him, which is why Yun Hui asked him to entrust him with the task of severely injuring Li Cang during their telepathic conversation earlier.

As soon as he stepped onto the arena, Yun Hui immediately used his sixth soul skill, Yin Yang Other Shore.

An endless abyss, several meters wide, appeared in the center of the arena, splitting the arena floor in two.

Immediately afterwards, the Endless Abyss began to move, changing its straight-line distribution and gradually curving into a square that surrounded the other side of the arena area where Li Cang was located.

After this area was surrounded by the endless abyss, the area covered by the abyss gradually shrank, and in a short while it shrank into a square with a side length of only one meter.

Li Cang was trapped in a square meter of ground within a square. The area outside the square was surrounded by an endless abyss. The only way out, the Bridge to the Other Shore, was now in a void, making it impossible for anyone to step across.

"One square meter is a bit small."

Yunhui looked at the small area inside the square, then waved his hand to enlarge the area of ​​the square and change its shape.

What was originally a one-meter square became a rectangle five meters long and one meter wide.

"Indeed, a long and narrow terrain is more suitable for duels."

Yun Hui stepped onto the other side bridge, which had transformed from illusion to reality, and walked to one end of the rectangle, where he met Li Cang's gaze from the other end.

How about deciding the outcome with a single move?

Yunhui's tone was quite precise, skillfully capturing the youthful impetuosity and vanity of young people.

Naturally, Li Cang agreed without even thinking about it.

Even though he had very little soul power left, he didn't want to lose face.

Upon seeing this, Yunhui revealed a strange smile.

She held up her hands, and the black and white scales of judgment appeared floating in the air between her hands.

On one side of the scales is a kind heart and the ancient tree of life, and on the other side is the phantom of Li Cang.

"The trial begins..."

No one knew what had happened. All they knew was that after Li Cang unleashed his full power, an incredibly dazzling light enveloped the rectangular area surrounded by the endless abyss.

Seconds later, the white light and the endless abyss vanished simultaneously.

Yun Hui stood still, while Li Cang lay on the ground not far away, seemingly unconscious.

Initially, no one cared about this situation, including the members of the Eating and Drinking Team.

But when Li Cang was carried to their side, Yi Shuihan and the others noticed something was wrong.

"Boss, this..."

"It's alright, Li Cang is fine. He will recover naturally after a period of recuperation, but it will take at least half a month."

"Half a month, doesn't that mean the upcoming matches..."

"Yes, I think that's probably why they joined forces."

"In that case, is there any need for us to continue the individual competition? Let's just concede and participate in the team competition this afternoon."

"No, we'll continue with the individual competition. If they can do it, so can we."

Yi Shuihan originally wanted to go up in this round himself, but he was wary of Yun Hui's strength, so after thinking for a moment, he sent out the last substitute player in the team as a substitute.

With the exchange of pieces ending, the fifth round of the individual competition concluded, and the sixth round began.

Yun Hui knew that Yi Shuihan was wary of her strength, so after the Four Elements Academy sent a substitute to concede defeat, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School sent a substitute to replace her.

At this point, only Captain Yi Shuihan and Vice Captain Xiong Lai remained in the Eating and Drinking Team.

After some thought, Yi Shuihan decided it was best to be the last one to appear, so the challenger for this round was the vice-captain, Xiong Lai.

When they saw that it was Xiong Lai instead of Yi Shuihan from the Eating and Drinking Team, Yun Hui and Feng Xiaotian both revealed a smile.

If Yi Shuihan were a Soul Saint with multiple divine artifacts, they wouldn't have the confidence to seriously injure him.

But since it is Xiong Lai who has appeared, even if the opponent is a Soul Saint, how can one divine artifact contend with their multiple divine artifacts?

The person who just appeared and completed the mission was Yun Hui, so this time Feng Xiaotian plans to take action himself.

He lacked the confidence to seriously injure Yi Shuihan, so seriously injuring Xiong Lai became his only chance to participate in and complete the mission.

In the seventh round, Feng Xiaotian from the Wind and Fire Team made his appearance.

According to the information about the Eating and Drinking Team, Xiong Lai's martial soul is named Sloth, and his divine position is inherited from the God of Sloth.

He was still unaware of the Sloth God's abilities, so he remained vigilant at all times.

"Ah~"

Unlike Feng Xiaotian's vigilance, Xiong Lai still looked like he hadn't woken up yet.

A moment later, as Feng Xiaotian stepped onto the arena, Xiong Lai, who seemed to be half asleep, immediately released his martial soul and soul ring.

Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black
With seven spirit rings—two yellow, two purple, and three black—Xiong Lai, like Feng Xiaotian, is also a Spirit Saint.

"The vice-captain is a Soul Saint, so does that mean Captain Yi Shuihan is also a Soul Saint?"

Just as Feng Xiaotian thought this, he suddenly realized that he was very sleepy and too lazy to move. He didn't even want to lie down and go to sleep.

"Laziness, laziness, now I see."

He understood, but he was too lazy to deal with it.
