Douluo: Peerless Black Tortoise Moon God

Chapter 162: Meeting Shrek in the semi-finals, the Holy Spirit's body, Xuanming, Sun and Moon, gathered in Xingluo City

"Your Highness, here are two pieces of intelligence from different directions that will surely interest you."

In the East Palace of Mingdu, Sun-Moon Empire, a senior attendant brought two scrolls and respectfully handed them to the wheelchair-bound prince in front of the table.

"Where does this information come from?" Xu Tianran took the scroll and asked casually.

"One comes from Xingluo City, and the other comes from the Demon Forest."

"Snapped!"

Xu Tianran grasped the scroll with his knuckles and exerted force, his face becoming more profound, and he spread out the scroll quickly.

The headquarters of the Holy Spirit Cult is in the Demon Forest. Any movement there means that the dangerous evil soul masters have set out, and they are making a big move, otherwise they would not have given me a heads-up.

After quickly browsing the contents of the two scrolls, Xu Tianran's face showed a hint of surprise, and he muttered to himself:
"I never thought that Master Mingde was so brave that he captured Shrek's vice president alive in Xingluo City, greatly boosting our country's prestige."

"And the Holy Spirit Cult is also planning to launch a large-scale attack on Xingluo City or Shrek City. How strange! Do these major forces like to fight Shrek?"

After pondering for a moment, Xu Tianran noticed that the introduction about Jing Hongchen mentioned the outstanding performance of this year's Sun and Moon Team, and his eyes couldn't help but focus on the name "Kong Tianxi".

"I've only heard that this person has a great talent for soul guides, but I never thought his cultivation level would be so high. I also wonder which lineage of the royal family he comes from..."

The servant in front of him lowered his head and said nothing. Xu Tianran had once ordered him to investigate Kong Tianxi's life experience, but he found nothing. It was as if an invisible hand had wiped out everything he had.

"Xingluo City is so bustling, it would be a shame if I didn't go and take a look..."

Xu Tianran's eyes flashed with longing, and he whispered, "Xuechen, prepare to accompany me to Xingluo City. I have a feeling that this trip will yield great rewards."

"Yes."

……

A few days later, the sky above Xingluo City began to light up.

Xingluo Square was bustling with people. A ten-meter-wide red carpet was laid from the imperial city gate to the competition stage. Xu Jiawei strode out surrounded by four Titled Douluo and headed straight for the competition stage.

The thunderous cheers of "Long live" drowned out all other sounds, and the four college teams in the four waiting areas also stood up and saluted.

Xu Jiawei stepped onto the stage amid the cheers of his subjects and delivered a routine speech, announcing that he, who had been watching the competition for more than a month, would personally preside over the draw ceremony for the top four semi-finals.

Xiao Hongchen couldn't contain his loneliness and whispered quietly, "In the previous semi-finals, our opponents were scared and gave up before they even started fighting. I hope we can meet an opponent worthy of fighting this time."

Xu Tianxi said calmly: "The top four teams are all old acquaintances. Besides us and Shrek, there are Xingluo Royal Academy and Di'ao Academy. I don't know if we can beat them, but they will definitely not give up."

At this time, Xu Jiawei announced that the captains of each team would come on stage to draw lots.

Ma Rulong did not move, but looked in the direction of Xu Tianxi behind him, "Junior, you go ahead."

Xu Tianxi was stunned for a moment, "Senior Ma, this is inappropriate, right?"

"You fight better than me, so you're suitable." Ma Rulong said firmly.

Xu Tianxi thought for a few breaths, then nodded without any pretense, "Okay, I'll go up then."

After saying that, he bowed slightly to Ma Rulong and walked briskly towards the competition stage.

His appearance attracted many surprised and doubtful looks. Xu Jiujiu and the captain of Dio Academy, who were also on the stage, were surprised for a moment, and then they understood. Ma Xiaotao narrowed his eyes slightly, and a burning fire flashed in his eyes.

The four of them went on stage under the watchful eyes of Xu Jiawei and the Titled Douluo. Xu Jiawei exchanged some pleasantries, and four balls of light rose into the air.

Ma Xiaotao and the captain of Dio Academy jumped up at the same time and picked up a small ball one after another. Xu Tianxi and Xu Jiujiu did not move until the two small balls fell, then they each grabbed them.

Xu Tianxi took a look and gave the number: "Number one."

"Number one!" Ma Xiaotao spoke immediately afterwards, her eyes falling directly on Xu Tianxi's calm face.

At this point, the result is determined.

Xu Jiawei smiled and nodded, then checked the numbers of the four people to make sure there was no open cheating, and then gave a look to Shattered Star Douluo.

Shattered Star Douluo stepped forward and announced the result loudly: "First match of the semi-finals, Shrek Academy versus Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy!"

Before he finished speaking, a huge roar like a tsunami came from the audience. The shouts of "Shrek" and "Sun and Moon Team" reached the sky and could be heard clearly for dozens of miles around.

In the previous semi-finals, not only did the opponents of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy lose without a fight, but Shrek's opponents also chose to admit defeat. It was a spectacle that had never happened in previous competitions.

The early collision between these two old rivals who always meet in the finals is a major event that has not happened for a long time.

Upon learning the result, Xu Tianxi was surprised for a moment, smiled at Xu Jiawei and others, and was about to turn around and leave the stage.

At this moment, a passionate female voice suddenly came from behind him.

"We will defend Shrek's glory with our lives!"

Xu Tianxi paused, tilted his head and smiled at Ma Xiaotao, and said lightly:

"There's no point in talking big. Let's see what happens. If you can't win the team fight, you'll definitely lose this battle."

"We will never lose!"

Ma Xiaotao stared straight at Xu Tianxi's broad back and walked off the stage with a harsh word.

Xu Jiujiu and the captain of Dio Academy followed him off the stage, and Xu Jiawei's face was filled with a relaxed smile.

If those evil soul masters are really interested in Shrek, a female student, it would be better to send them away as soon as possible. You can cause trouble in Shrek City, but just don't mess around in my Xingluo City.

After giving Shattered Star Douluo a few words of advice, Xu Jiawei led his men away, preparing to leave the competition stage to the two teams that had already been on the verge of a showdown.

In the Sun and Moon team's rest area, everyone was a little surprised, but not panicked. Instead, they cheered and rejoiced. "I never thought we'd be able to send Shrek back home in the semifinals. I can't wait." Xiao Hongchen stretched, regaining his signature frivolous smile.

Ma Rulong rubbed his hands together, his joints creaking. "It's finally my turn. I can't wait."

Xu Tianxi looked at Jing Hongchen and said calmly, "Dean, to prevent any accidents, please let me use the things I bought at the auction."

"Things? Haven't those shells already been given to...oh, this?"

A question mark appeared on Jing Hongchen's forehead, but then he understood and took out the eighth-level melee soul guide, the Tyrant Tiger Soul Refining Knife.

"Yes." Xu Tianxi took the saber-shaped Tyrant Tiger Soul-Refining Sword and waved it a few times. The sharp blade cut through the air.

"This thing requires a soul master at the Soul Saint level to use. Are you okay?" Jing Hongchen was a little worried.

"Don't worry, Grandpa. When has he ever had any problems?" Xiao Hongchen answered on behalf of Xu Tianxi, and Jing Hongchen immediately sneered.

"Don't worry, Dean. I am fully prepared this time. Don't forget those high-level soul guides that I approved from you a long time ago." After putting away the Tyrant Tiger Soul Refining Knife, Xu Tianxi showed a determined smile.

On the other side, in the Shrek rest area, the two elders and three deans looked unhappy and gloomy.

The Xingluo Empire's move clearly shows that it will not cooperate with them.

The five of them exchanged glances, discussing what to do after the game.

"I think there's no need to wait. Once this fight is over, we can create a commotion and take down Jing Hongchen!"

"It's said that the atmosphere in Xingluo City has become increasingly strange these past few days. There are many strange and powerful auras. As long as someone takes the first step, the situation will explode..."

"Yes, let's do it this way..."

At the same time, Zhang Lexuan and Wang Yan sighed in their hearts and encouraged Ma Xiaotao, Beibei and others to relax and go into battle lightly.

Du Weilun glanced at the seven members of the selected team and coughed lightly:
"Cai Tou, your legs are not working properly, so don't fight this battle. Let Ning Tian take over. Her support abilities are more suitable for this battle."

He Caitou was stunned for a moment and nodded slightly; Ning Tian, ​​with a confused look on his face, was called upon to serve and walked forward at a loss.

This change did not affect the overall state of the Shrek team. The seven members encouraged each other and went on stage wearing their iconic dark green school uniforms.

On the Sun and Moon side, Ma Rulong and Lin Xi replaced two weaker regular players and took the stage with Xu Tianxi.

Ma Rulong finally played the role of captain of the regular team and negotiated with Shrek on behalf of the Sun and Moon Team. As expected, Ma Xiaotao gave him a cold shoulder.

Upon seeing this, the expressions of the Sun and Moon team turned cold, and a hoarse and excited laughter came from a place in the audience where the men in black were gathered.

"Hahahaha, as expected of the Saint Lady who is the manifestation of the Holy Emperor, she really has a unique personality..."

"This elder really likes the Saint Lady's arrogant look. What a perfect temperament she has. It's so delightful..."

"I heard that the Saint Lady is Yan Shaozhe's disciple and Moon En's disciple-in-law. Moon En is dead, and I, Zhang Peng, have been reborn. I didn't expect that my first target would be his disciple-in-law. How wonderful..."

"What the Scorpion Tiger Priest said is true. Yan Shaozhe gave our sect an evil phoenix, and then gave us an evil fire phoenix. He really does have a connection with our sect, hehe..."

The man in black sitting in the center held a scepter and pointed out the situation:
"Everyone, listen up! They're definitely going to fight like hell in this one. After we enjoy the Saint's performance, we'll be ready to take action and give Shrek and Xingluo City a big surprise!"

"Yes! We will follow the leader's orders!" All the evil soul masters responded in unison.

They traveled all night long for the Fire Phoenix Saint and arrived at Xingluo City two days ago, but they haven't found a suitable opportunity until now.

In the Eastern Body Sect, the masked Golden Body Douluo Jin Peng looked around and gave orders:
"Besides us, I have vaguely sensed the auras of more than twenty Titled Douluo lurking here. Everyone, be careful. The atmosphere here is very abnormal."

"Yes." More than ten voices responded to him almost simultaneously.

In the Southern Xuanming Sect, Xiao Changfeng and Xu Fu sat side by side. Xiao Changfeng whispered to the old man in the bamboo hat sitting between them, "Teacher, something seems amiss."

Xu Xiaoyun lowered his bamboo hat, his voice more serious than ever before: "Everyone, be careful. I have vaguely sensed a very strong evil aura. If anything unexpected happens on the field later, you must protect Tianxi immediately."

The Western Soul Masters gathered together, and Kong Deming, who was in charge of the disciples, looked back and forth between the south and the north, raising an eyebrow: "I came out on a whim, and encountered such a special occasion. It's really rare."

"Xu Tianran is here too, hanging out with those evil soul masters... It seems there's no doubt about his ascension to the throne."

At this moment, Shattered Star Douluo announced the start of the competition and took off into the air.

The five members of the Sun and Moon Team moved together. Ma Rulong, Xiao Hongchen and the three regular team members opened fire at full power. Various level five and level six soul guides appeared in their hands, and soul light surged.

In an instant, countless balls of light condensed from soul power were released from the five people like a peacock spreading its tail, and roared towards Shrek at an astonishing speed.

On the Shrek side, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tower, which rarely appeared, rose into the air, spewing out three streams of light that landed on the six people.

"I'm here to meet you!"

Ma Xiaotao's evil fire grew stronger, and the first three soul rings lit up at the same time. The soul bones of her legs burst out with scorching air waves, and the whole person roared into the air, spewing out evil fire that spread like wildfire, and headed towards the light ball released by the Sun and Moon Team.

"Everyone, attack together! Overlord, Thunder Domain!"

Beibei roared, and the blue-purple lightning around him turned golden. The bright blue electric Tyrannosaurus Rex sublimated into a bright holy dragon. The surging lightning covered an area of ​​20 meters. A pair of dragon claws were spread out and pounced on Xu Tianxi.

With the boost from the Seven Treasures Glazed Tower, Beibei's soul power, which was close to that of a Soul King, increased significantly. With the awakening of the Holy Dragon of Light, he believed that he could temporarily confront the Sun and Moon reserve captain in front of him.

As Beibei attacked, She Yang, Jiang Nannan and Huyan Bashan rushed out together. The first two attacked Meng Hongchen, while Huyan Bashan leaped into the air and activated his third soul skill to kill, falling towards Xu Tianxi like a mountain.

Ling Luochen waved his ice staff, and snow and wind swept over the sky, moving up and down with the Phoenix Evil Fire, and collided violently with the soul-guided light ball of the Sun and Moon side.

The colorful and dazzling lights flooded the competition stage, and countless eyes were fixed on the chaotic battlefield.
