Douluo Dalu: The Eyes That Defy Fate

Chapter 158 Irony
"Someone, go invite the two Shrek seniors to the palace for a chat!"

When the audience's enthusiasm had mostly faded, Xu Jiawei finally made up his mind to keep the people from the Sun and Moon Team in the Star Luo Empire.

At least we have to keep this guy named Lin Po.

And just in case, he planned to drag Shrek along as well. Even if it meant making a wedding dress for Shrek, it was better than leaving it to Sun and Moon.

Besides, he didn't believe that Shrek, who was watching the whole process, would have no other thoughts about such a genius.

"I hope I won't be depressed for a long time."

After leaving the ring, Lin Po and others did not leave the competition venue, but sat in the viewing platform with other team members who did not go on stage, waiting for the next game.

Shrek Team vs. Dio Team.

Facing the Di Ao team, which also has a Soul Emperor, Shrek has no absolute confidence even if he wants to hide this time.

So in the eyes of many people, Shrek, who has been hiding, is finally going to show his strength this time.

This made everyone present, regardless of their physical fatigue, look forward to what kind of battle Shrek would bring next.

Two hours later, the arena had been repaired by the earth-attributed soul masters of the Xingluo Empire, and the soul guide defense array had also been inspected.

Soon, fourteen members of the Shrek and Dio teams walked onto the stage amid the cheers and screams of the audience.

Those believers who still worshipped Shrek Academy looked at the red figure in the front with hope, hoping that she could use her strength to break the rumors from the outside world.

Ma Xiaotao did not disappoint them. Her subsequent performance raised the atmosphere to an unimaginable level again.

As Tiansha Douluo announced the start of the competition, a shrill phoenix cry resounded through the sky.

At the same time, Ma Xiaotao's 72nd level Soul Saint's scorching aura suddenly erupted, instantly covering the entire arena.

The seven best-matched soul rings kept rhythmically moving behind him, as if to demonstrate Shrek's unshakable status.

The other six members of Shrek were also possessed by their martial spirits, and together with Ma Xiaotao, the strongest member of the team, they integrated their own aura into the burning heat.

Unlike Shrek's confidence, after the members of Dio Academy learned that Shrek's captain was a Soul Sage, everyone inevitably felt a trace of despair in their hearts.

Jiang Peng, who was in the lead, bore the most of the pressure. The scorching heat even made his sweat evaporate in an instant.

"What kind of monsters are these guys?!
Everyone! If things get bad, don't hesitate, immediately shout "surrender!" And always carry your invincibility shields. Don't risk your future in a place like this!

After cursing the world, Jiang Peng quickly gave the most correct order of his life.

He truly felt the murderous intent in the flames of the Fire Phoenix Spirit Master opposite him, and he immediately understood that this crazy woman was taking out her anger on them.

Unfortunately, he also has his own pride and will not give up because of such a small difficulty.

"rush!"

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Peng rushed forward with a huge axe in his hand.

Seeing this, the others did not hesitate at all, and each activated their strongest soul skills to prepare for a decisive attack.

Ma Xiaotao looked at the six people rushing towards her with a disdainful sneer, and then her third soul skill flashed, and a pair of slightly dark red fire wings spread out, carrying her into the air.

Immediately afterwards, the sixth soul ring lit up. Ma Xiaotao had no intention of holding back, and the Phoenix Meteor Shower covered the entire path of the Di Ao team.

Looking at the dozen or so huge fireballs with a diameter of one meter shooting down from the sky at high speed, with temperatures that seemed to be able to burn everything, even Jiang Peng, the Soul Emperor, felt a little despair, not to mention others.

Jiang Peng gritted his teeth and increased his speed again.

"Keep rushing!"

The captain's belief was passed on to the team members. Even though they were afraid, they still followed Jiang Peng without hesitation.

After a round of explosions, Diao Academy was not completely destroyed as Ma Xiaotao had imagined.

It turned out that the other two members below the Soul King level used their bodies to activate an invincible shield, blocking three of the fireballs and opening up a passage.

Unfortunately, Ma Xiaotao didn't seem to understand the principle that a desperate army will win, and her contemptuous look was full of confidence in herself.

However, to her surprise, the remaining five did not choose her as their opponent, but instead engaged in a fight with the other Shrek members. For a moment, due to their emotions, Shrek seemed to be at a disadvantage even with six against five.

Jiang Peng faced Dai Yueheng. Two of the Soul Kings held back Chen Zifeng and Ling Luochen, while the remaining two Soul Kings attacked Beibei, Xu Sanshi and Jiang Nannan.

Because everyone was too close, Ma Xiaotao in mid-air couldn't continue to release her powerful soul skills and could only watch from the side.

Afterwards, Jiang Peng's plan worked, but it was of little use.

Jiang Nannan was the first to be blasted out of the venue. Just when the two Soul Kings thought they could deal with the remaining two Soul Masters as soon as possible, Xu Sanshi was the first to explode. When Beibei saw this, he also started his second awakening.

As a result, there was a famous scene where two Soul Masters held back two Soul Kings.

Seeing this, Jiang Peng knew that he had no power to turn the situation around, and no longer reserved his soul power to wait for a chance to win. He attacked his opponent with all his might, causing Dai Yuheng to suffer terribly.

As everyone expected, once the Soul Saint appeared, Team Dio suffered a crushing defeat.

But it wasn't that they were defeated by their respective opponents.

Because when the soul power of all the members of the Di Ao team was about to be exhausted, Ma Xiaotao took action again, releasing the Phoenix Meteor Shower again, almost like a sneak attack.

But this time, looking at the rain of fire in the sky, there was not any despair on the faces of Jiang Peng and others, but a hint of sarcasm.

"Oh, Shrek, nothing more than that!"

Ma Xiaotao fell from the sky and looked at Jiang Peng, who was lying on the ground in a very disheveled but still intact state, and the soul guide core that was scattered all over the ground. She couldn't help but frown.

"Humph! It seems that you too have been poisoned by the soul guides. You are a bunch of people who have lost the faith of soul masters."

However, this time Jiang Peng did not indulge anyone's thoughts and went straight to the face to attack.

"Yes, because I used the invincibility shield at the critical moment, I am now alive and well. What about your teammates? Are they all intact?
If I remember correctly, you were able to recover so quickly thanks to Senior Medical Immortal Douluo, right?"

Jiang Peng's words seemed to be a slap in Ma Xiaotao's face. She was so angry that her face turned red. She immediately wanted to kill the man in front of her who had lost his faith as a soul master and was bullying Shrek.

Tiansha Douluo, who had listened to the entire process, saw this scene and directly announced the result of the game.

"Semi-finals, second round, first match, Shrek team wins!

All Shrek contestants are also requested to cease any offensive behavior!"

The cold and high-pitched voice spread throughout the entire stadium through the soul guide, causing the originally bustling audience to suddenly become quiet.

What? Is Shrek going to intentionally hurt someone again?

Even the civilians who couldn't see the specific situation in the field were so suspicious, and the soul masters who could see the actions of Ma Xiaotao, Dai Yuheng and others all curled their lips.

Is that all Shrek is up to? He's just destroying his opponent just to avoid playing in the individual matches later?

The next moment, there were cries of "ooh" from all sides in the viewing platform, making Ma Xiaotao's raised hand unable to move or stay still.

Finally, he walked off the ring angrily.

Dai Yuheng, Chen Zifeng and Xu Sanshi also looked regretful, as they were just about to defeat their opponents.

Beibei did not continue to attack, but he also did not have any intention of opposing his teammates' actions.

Only Ling Luochen was there, with a frown on his cold face. He began to doubt himself amid the constant ridicule and followed the crowd silently.

Before Ma Xiaotao and the others returned to their base, Jiang Peng's voice was heard again from the ring, causing them to look back subconsciously.

Jiang Peng, who had recovered a bit of his soul power, was seen raising his right hand and shouting loudly.

"Di'ao Academy, forfeit! As captain, I cannot let my team members die in vain!"

At this moment, the scene exploded instantly.

"This girl is really troublesome."

Lin Po chuckled softly.
