Douluo II: The nanny is killing people indiscriminately!

Chapter 118 A Scheme Within a Scheme

With its magnificent purple butterfly wings unfurled, Meng Hongchen vanished from the spot.

The audience below the stage were filled with astonishment. Wang Dong asked Wang Yan, "Teacher Wang, what's going on? Where did Meng Hongchen go?"

Wang Yan's mood had just lightened a little because Dai Yueheng had gained the upper hand, but it quickly turned serious again: "If I'm not mistaken, what Meng Hongchen revealed behind her just now was a soul bone. Her disappearance must have been due to the effect of the soul bone's skill."

Concealment-type soul bone skills must come from top-grade soul bones, which are rare and precious. Mingde Hall has really gone all out!
With the target gone, the White Tiger's fierce light wave, which had been building up in the mouth of the Evil-Eyed White Tiger, had to be extinguished.

Above their heads, ice-blue rapiers transformed into countless sword shadows that fell from the sky. The sword light was about a foot long, condensed and did not disperse, and its piercing hum echoed through the air.

Having experienced countless battles, Dai Yueheng reacted quickly, slapping upwards with his tiger paws, the sharp claws outlining a large expanse of golden light, forcefully clashing with the powerful sword light that was coming at him.

The Rose Rapier is a level six close-range soul tool, and its attack performance is in no way inferior to Dai Yueheng's Tiger Claw. Meng Hongchen even narrowed the gap in cultivation between the two of them with its power alone.

Dai Yueheng's attention was mostly focused on the sword light above his head. Although he was quite keen to notice the fluctuations in the air behind him, he didn't have time to dodge, and a sword blade slashed across his back.

Meng Hongchen remained hidden throughout, her actions as swift as lightning, making it difficult to detect her movements.

Having succeeded in her first strike, Meng Hongchen repeated her routine, continuing to ambush Dai Yueheng from all directions. In just three minutes, large patches of Dai Yueheng's beast-like golden tiger fur were shaved off.

The three main body-enhancing soul skills protect Dai Yueheng's body from injury, allowing his physical attack power and resistance to reach their optimal state, but also consuming a huge amount of soul power.

Dai Yueheng's face began to turn pale, and Wang Yan exclaimed, "This is bad! Yueheng has no way to break Meng Hongchen's concealed soul skill and can only passively take the beating."

Huo Yuhao closed his eyes tightly, as if he had made up his mind.

His mother died from the long-term harshness and abuse of the Duchess of White Tiger, who was also Dai Yueheng's mother. He was a thousand times unwilling to help the son of his enemy, but if he didn't help Dai Yueheng now, Shrek Academy was destined to lose this match.

For the sake of Shrek's glory, he must temporarily put aside his personal grudges.

Huo Yuhao's eyes lit up with a fluorescent light as he secretly used the two soul skills "Mental Detection" and "Mental Sharing" to probe the arena. As soon as the soul skills landed on Dai Yueheng, his brain suddenly throbbed with pain, and the soul skills dissipated.

Huo Yuhao covered his head, his heart filled with surprise and uncertainty.

"Brother Tianmeng, what's going on?"

"Yuhao, Lian Chen has discovered you, but her mental attack isn't strong. It should just be a warning, and you'll recover in a bit."

"Hmm..." A layer of cold sweat broke out on Huo Yuhao's back. Since Lian Chen could discover that he intended to use his soul skill to help Dai Yueheng, his little tricks must have been discovered in the last team battle as well. So why didn't he report him?

Huo Yuhao looked up at Lian Chen, but the girl was watching the match on stage and didn't even glance at him.

Lian Chen's strength, tactics, and decisions were all unexpected. Could it be that she secretly favored Shrek Academy by concealing her role as an outside support player?
not necessarily.

……

Dai Yueheng was already showing signs of weakness, and Meng Hongchen's sword attacks became even more fierce. Affected by the poison of the Ice Toad, the amplification effect of Dai Yueheng's soul skill gradually weakened, and soon, blood appeared on his body.

When a highly toxic substance comes into contact with blood, it will only spread faster.

A layer of smooth, mirror-like ice crystals condensed on the ground. Meng Hongchen appeared fifty meters behind Dai Yueheng. Dai Yueheng locked onto her instantly and used his fourth soul skill at top speed.

Since single-target attacks will miss their targets, let's use area-of-effect attacks!

"White Tiger Meteor Shower!"

Under a clear blue sky, a white crescent moon lit up the heavens, transforming into countless streaks of light that rained down upon Meng Hongchen. Meng Hongchen stood rooted to the spot, offering no defense or evasion, and even raised an eyebrow at Dai Yueheng in a defiant manner. The meteor shower crashed down, exploding and sending smoke and dust billowing through the air.

“Hit.” Dai Yueheng gasped for breath, his soul power seemingly exhausted.

"Heh..." A seductive chuckle rang in his ear, its malice as rampant as poison, sending chills down his spine: "Is that so?"

Meng Hongchen appeared beside Dai Yueheng, watching the man as if she were watching a good show.

The figure that Dai Yueheng struck was merely an illusion created by her third soul skill, "Ice Refraction," to lure Dai Yueheng into using an area-of-effect attack soul skill.

As expected, the opponent, despite being poisoned, launched a final attack with all his might, which was when Dai Yueheng was at his weakest.

It's time to end!

Filled with unwavering confidence, Meng Hongchen's fifth soul ring glowed with a dense black light. She soared into the air, her arms outstretched, and her rapier condensed into two giant vortexes of air, one red and one blue. The vortexes intertwined and merged, forming an even larger vortex. Meng Hongchen charged forward with the force of thunder, the tip of the vortex aimed directly at Dai Yueheng.

Tian Sha Douluo quickly arrived at a distance not far from the two combatants, ready to end the match at any moment.

Within the icy blue vortex, red light flickered, giving the impression of solid ice encasing a raging fire—a truly bizarre sight.

This is the strongest attack that Meng Hongchen can currently unleash—the Ice and Fire Poison Dragon Drill, a skill created by the perfect combination of a ten-thousand-year soul skill and a level-six soul tool. Its power is so great that it can severely injure or even kill an ordinary Soul Emperor.

Unbeknownst to Meng Hongchen, the ice crystals that had formed on the ground due to "ice refraction" quietly melted away.

As the Ice-Fire Poison Dragon Drill approached Dai Yueheng, the Heavenly Fiend Douluo had already raised his hand.

At the critical moment, Dai Yueheng, whose eyes had been somewhat dazed, suddenly moved. He took a step forward, his left arm raised in defense: "Soul Bone Skill, Absolute Defense!"

"clang--"

A crisp clang rang out, and just a second before the twin swords struck Dai Yueheng's left arm, his left arm suddenly erupted with golden light, which was almost tangible, blocking Meng Hongchen's attack.

The swirling air currents relentlessly attacked, blood trickling from Dai Yueheng's clenched teeth, and the golden protective shield vibrated incessantly, threatening to shatter at any moment.

"Senior Dai, why struggle any longer? You have no soul power left, accept defeat!"

Meng Hongchen launched a full-scale attack, Dai Yueheng's pupils constricted, and his long-suppressed face revealed his true madness as his sixth spirit ring, the last one in the series, finally lit up.

"Are you going to hide again?!"

A terrifying aura instantly enveloped the two of them. The right claw of the Evil-Eyed White Tiger shimmered with golden light, and the tiger claw gathered soul power to form the character "kill".

White Tiger Annihilation Strike is Dai Yueheng's strongest single-target attack soul skill.

Meng Hongchen was gradually dismantling his fighting strength, so of course he wouldn't sit idly by and wait for his death.

The resistance of the White Tiger's three amplification soul skills is even stronger than Meng Hongchen imagined.

Meng Hongchen was too slippery. With just one soul bone, she controlled the entire match. Moreover, she was a level 5 soul master. Dai Yueheng knew very well that she had many ways to protect herself.

Therefore, he deliberately created an opening, just as Meng Hongchen hoped, by using an area-of-effect soul skill to damage his own soul power, luring the enemy in deep and waiting for an opportunity to counterattack.

For example, now!
