Douluo Continent: I had just reached my limit when the sky exposed me.

Chapter 18 Ignoring all defenses
He had a handsome face and a detached, languid air about him; he was none other than Zhuang Zhou.

Soul power increases, and soul rings undergo transformation.

These things didn't seem to move him much.

Only after the "Dreamlike Freedom" domain and the "Kunpeng Speed" supernatural power merged into his body did he slightly open his sleepy eyes and yawn.

He muttered to himself, "Hmm...that's interesting...I can sleep more comfortably now..."

After he finished speaking, the phantom of the Kunpeng beneath him swayed gently, and subtle ripples spread through the surrounding space. It was as if he was about to merge into the void and continue his "grand dream".

Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, and the others standing to the side were dumbfounded.

This Zhuangzi is truly extraordinary!

Ning Rongrong stared wide-eyed, her small hands covering her mouth.

They watched in disbelief as Master Zhuang Zhou, along with the enormous phantom of the Kunpeng, gradually became ethereal, as if about to dissolve into the breeze and light.

"Zhu...Zhu Qing, did you see that? Teacher Zhuang Zhou...he seems to be disappearing?"

Rongrong's voice trembled slightly.

They were both shocked by the amazing ability to "traverse the void" and stunned by the scene before them that defied common sense.

Zhu Zhuqing's usually cool and aloof face was filled with astonishment. She only came to her senses after hearing Ning Rongrong's words and took a deep breath.

"I see, is this the power of the Kun of the Northern Sea? It can purify all things and traverse the void, which is simply a miracle."

She recalled her past struggles for survival and her pursuit of power.

Compared to Zhuangzi's carefree and almost Daoist attitude, it's like comparing heaven and earth.

A look of surprise and uncertainty flickered in Dugu Yan's emerald green snake eyes. She was feeling quite pleased with herself as she experienced her newly acquired Ice and Fire Poisonous Miasma Domain.

But compared to Zhuangzi's mysterious and unpredictable "dreamlike freedom" realm, I suddenly felt that my own realm was full of hostility and limitations.

"This Zhuangzi teacher, he usually either sleeps on the back of a fish or dozes off in mid-air, I thought..."

She didn't finish her sentence, but the meaning was obvious.

Who would have thought that this seemingly lazy teacher would possess such an extraordinary martial spirit?
Ning Rongrong seemed to suddenly remember something, lowered her voice, and said with deep confusion, "By the way, did you guys notice? Just now, when the golden light of the Heavenly Dao descended, Teacher Zhuang Zhou's soul power must have increased, but he didn't release his soul ring."

"What do you think is Master Zhuang Zhou's soul power level?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing and Dugu Yan became very curious about Master Zhuang Zhou's abilities.

The three girls looked at each other, and each saw the same shock and confusion in the other's eyes.

The unfathomable depths of Beidou Academy, and the power and mystery surrounding its teachers.

Once again, it left a deep imprint on their minds in a way that subverted their understanding.

Lu Xiao glanced at Zhuang Zhou's direction, and his lips twitched almost imperceptibly.

Then he returned to his lazy demeanor, as if it were all perfectly natural.

While various forces on the mainland were still immersed in the shock brought by the "Kun of the Northern Sea".

The golden light flashed again in the sky, and the information about the eighth place was suddenly revealed!

[Martial Soul Ranking, 8th Place: Fangtian Halberd]

[Owner: Lü Bu (Beidou Academy)]

[Rating: Peerless Battle Spirit, Unrivaled Under Heaven, its blade shatters all laws, possessing ultimate destructive power. Characteristic: Ignores all forms of defense! Containing earth-shattering might, it is one of the strongest offensive martial spirits in the Douluo Continent.]

[Rewards: Soul Power level increased by three levels, all Soul Rings' age increased by 15,000 years, a 150,000-year-old divinely bestowed head Soul Bone, the Talent Domain: Asura Battlefield, and the Combat Skill: Peerless Dance.]

"The Fangtian Halberd? Another martial spirit I've never heard of before!"

"Ignore all defenses? How is that possible!"

"World-destroying, the strongest offensive martial soul! My god!" "Beidou Academy! It's Beidou Academy again! They've got eighth and ninth place!"

If the "Northern Sea Kun" brings eeriness and unpredictability, then the "Fangtian Halberd" brings the most direct and pure violent impact!
The six words "ignore any defense" struck like a heavy hammer against all the Soul Masters.

Especially those Soul Masters known for their defense!
what does this mean?
This means that no matter how strong the tortoise shell, how thick the shield, or how powerful the defensive soul skill, they are all as fragile as paper in front of this Fangtian Halberd!
What an overbearing and unreasonable characteristic this is!
……

Inside the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Bone Douluo Gu Rong subconsciously touched his bones, his face turning pale: "Ignore defense... Old Chen, isn't your Seven Kill Sword sharp enough? Can it ignore defense?"

Chen Xin slowly shook his head, his face extremely solemn: "No, my sword still needs to break through the obstacles. This Fangtian Halberd... its attack characteristics are already close to the level of rules."

"If we are to become enemies with Lu Bu, we must never let him get close!"

Ning Fengzhi took a deep breath: "Unparalleled attack power, and it ignores defense. Just how many monsters like this does Beidou Academy have?"

"Is Rongrong really safe there?"

At that moment, his worry for his daughter outweighed his curiosity about the academy's mysteries.

……

Wuhun Temple.

Bibi Dong's fingernails had dug deeply into her palms.

She possesses two top-tier martial souls, the Death Spider King and the Soul-Devouring Spider King, and her defensive capabilities are also extremely impressive.

But the phrase "ignore any defense" also made her feel a deadly threat.

"Lu Bu, Fangtian Halberd."

Her eyes were filled with murderous intent.

"We must find out the details of this Beidou Academy as soon as possible. If we cannot subdue them, we must do everything in our power to nip them in the bud before they grow stronger!"

She could almost see a terrifying halberd, capable of tearing apart all defenses, hovering above the Spirit Hall.

……

The Star Luo Empire, the Heaven Dou Empire, and various sects…

All forces were terrified by these two terrifying martial souls that came from Beidou Academy one after another.

The image of Beidou Academy became incredibly lofty and mysterious in their minds.

It is also filled with an extreme sense of danger.

A Zhuang Zhou with the ability to purify and travel through time.

Lu Bu, who possesses absolute defense-breaking power
This is only eighth or ninth place!

What about the top seven? Are they also all at Beidou Academy?

Is this academy defying the heavens?
……

On the square of Beidou Academy.

A towering figure, as imposing as a mountain and as domineering as a demon god, stood proudly—it was Lü Bu.

He held a huge, dark red, phantom-like halberd, receiving the baptism of golden light.

Soul power surged, and the soul rings underwent a transformation.

Black, black, black, black, black, black, red, red.

Seven black and two red rings—an unbelievable soul ring configuration.

A brutal, domineering "Shura Battlefield" domain, seemingly capable of slaughtering gods and demons, spread out from him.

It made the surrounding air stagnant and filled with murderous intent.
