Douluo Continent: I ushered in this era

Chu Ci said, "Everyone, adjust your mindset. The students of Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy are very strong, and overall they are much stronger than those of Heaven Dou Soul Master Academy."

The only strong members of the Heavenly Dou Soul Master Academy are Zou Yu and Tan Lanchu; the rest are just average. That's why Zou Yu chose to fight individually, hoping to give himself and Tan Lanchu a chance.

At this moment, the entire Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy activated its pre-prepared contingency plan. Within just half an hour, various propaganda campaigns had spread like wildfire throughout Mingdu and even the entire alliance.

Sun Moon TV, which spans all cities in the alliance, took over immediately after Chu Ci and his team arrived, announcing that it would broadcast the match live. To attract attention, it even named the match the "Battle of the Young Soul Masters".

After the seven members of Chu Ci had adjusted their state and woken up from their meditation, the conference room door opened, and the blond middle-aged man from before walked in again.

"The competition is ready and will be held in our academy's Grand Arena. Do you need to prepare anything further?"

Chu Ci said, "We are also ready."

The blond middle-aged man led the seven people up the elevator to the waiting area of ​​the Great Soul Arena.

As soon as Chu Ci arrived at the waiting area, he heard a frenzied roar outside the door, with shouts of encouragement and curses rising and falling.

Chu Ci shook his head; this method of applying pressure was far too crude.

Chu Ci looked at his eager companions beside him and said, "Let's plan the tactics first."

Gu Yue raised her hands, and a ring of icy blue light rose beneath her feet, gradually transforming into an ice shield that enveloped the six of them. It could isolate them from everything outside, including sound. It was a completely sealed space.

ten minutes later.

"The match is about to begin. Please prepare to enter the arena," a cold voice announced.

Chapter 111 Initial Advantage

The ice cover melted quietly from the top, and the melted water element evaporated directly into the air.

Ahead, two enormous archways slowly opened, and the already noisy sounds suddenly intensified, creating an extremely enthusiastic atmosphere.

Chu Ci walked steadily at the front, followed by Gu Yue, Tang Wulin, Ye Xinglan, Xie Xie, Xu Yan, and Xu Lizhi.

The Grand Arena of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy is quite magnificent, resembling a super-large colosseum.

In the center of the Great Soul Arena, seven students from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy stood there.

According to the original work, the opponent this time seems to be a secret weapon specially trained by the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy, which they call the Seven Stars of Glory.

The seven members of Chu Ci stood in a line opposite the seven members of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy.

A three-word battle armor master floated in the air and said in a deep voice, "Now, let's announce the competition rules."

"This match is primarily for friendly competition, but to ensure both sides can truly demonstrate their abilities, as the referee, I will only stop the match when either side faces serious injury, disability, or death. Alternatively, I will eliminate some of them. Ultimately, the winner will depend on which side has members still capable of fighting after the other side has been wiped out."

A layer of white, transparent shield slowly rose from all sides. The shield looked almost solid and remained condensed in the air at a height of 100 meters.

"The match is about to begin," the referee announced.

Chu Ci smiled slightly, stepped forward, and said to his opponent, "Chu Ci, Class 1, First Year, Outer Courtyard, Shrek Academy."

"Long Chen!" The one who spoke was a tall, handsome young man from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

Gu Yue walked up to Chu Ci and said, "Gu Yue, Class 1, First Year, Outer Division, Shrek Academy!"

A stunningly beautiful young woman with a slender figure stepped forward. "Xue Liushuang!"

“Tang Wulin,” Tang Wulin said in a deep voice, his eyes sharp.

A handsome young man with silver hair and green eyes said lazily, "Falling into the mortal world."

Upon hearing this name, Chu Ci raised an eyebrow and suddenly exclaimed, "The Hongchen family?"

Luo Hongchen chuckled lightly, "I didn't expect that people from Shrek Academy would still remember the Hongchen family."

“Ten thousand years ago, the Hongchen family was renowned in the field of soul tools. As someone who studies soul tools, how could I not know about the Hongchen family?” Chu Ci said.

Luo Hongchen said, "That's good. It wasn't in vain that I gave up my seclusion to fight you."

Chu Ci narrowed his eyes slightly, guessing that the methods of the seventh member of the Seven Stars of Glory, who did not appear in the original work, must be related to soul tools.

Although the Hongchen family has long since declined, even a fallen camel is bigger than a horse, and they still have some influence in the field of soul tools.

"Ye Xinglan!"

"Xie Xie!"

"Xu Yan!"

"Xu Lizhi!"

The remaining four members of Shrek Academy stepped forward at the same time.

The other four followed suit.

"You Dingqi!" This was a boy of medium build, with broad shoulders and strong, powerful arms.

"Jian Mochen!" This was a chubby boy whose physique was comparable to Xu Lizhi's.

"Mad Warrior Heaven!" A rather majestic and domineering name, but this one is a woman.

"Weng Daimin!" The last one was a delicate-looking girl with short blue hair.

"Both sides step back and prepare for the match. The distance to step back is one hundred meters," the referee, hovering in the air, announced loudly.

Both sides slowly retreated, and everyone except Chu Ci wore a rather solemn expression. Each of them exuded a formidable aura, making them all appear difficult to deal with.

But this battle concerns the reputation of their own academy, and everyone has a reason not to lose.

Long Chen stood prominently at the front, flanked by the short and stocky You Dingqi and the stout Jian Mochen.

Behind them were Xue Liushuang, Weng Daimin, and Kuang Zhantian. The three of them were also lined up in a row. Weng Daimin was in the very center.

Finally, there is the mortal world.

The 100-meter distance was quickly covered, and the two stared at each other.

"Game start!"

With a loud shout from the middle-aged man, the clash representing the two academies, and also the final exam for Chu Ci and his six classmates, finally began.

Chu Ci and the other six released their martial spirits simultaneously, with Chu Ci's four spirit rings—three purple and one black—being particularly eye-catching.

"What?" A senior member of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy on the platform exclaimed in surprise, his eyes fixed on Chu Ci's soul ring.

"How old is he? How could he withstand a soul that has existed for ten thousand years?"

The other senior figures on the podium also looked solemn. They had a feeling that their dream of defeating Shrek Academy with the Seven Stars of Glory was about to be shattered.

The six members of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy on the opposite side also released their martial souls.

Long Chen suppressed the shock in his eyes, took a step forward, and a dragon roar rang out from his body. Then, his height increased by three inches, and four purple soul rings rose from his feet.

A pale golden light appeared, vaguely resembling a giant dragon, and a powerful aura of light burst forth.

The Holy Dragon Martial Soul is the most top-tier Martial Soul and undoubtedly the trump card.

Long Chen tapped his left foot on the ground, his body suddenly leaping up, and he charged towards Tang Wulin and the others first.

His second spirit ring flashed, and a loud dragon roar rang out.

Second Soul Skill: Dragon's Roar!

The rolling roar was almost tangible, pressing down on the seven people of Chu Ci.

Tang Wulin's eyes lit up. "Let me do it." He then stepped forward.

A golden Qi and Blood Soul Ring appeared, and golden scales slowly emerged on Tang Wulin's arm.

The hundred-meter distance was covered in an instant. The moment Tang Wulin made contact with Long Chen, his golden soul rings bloomed, his blood and qi reversed, and the incomparably powerful aura of the Golden Dragon King suddenly burst forth from his body.

Long Chen's Holy Light Dragon bloodline was instantly suppressed by Tang Wulin's Golden Dragon King bloodline. An indescribable fear rose from the bottom of Long Chen's heart, his body trembled uncontrollably, and his power collapsed directly.

Just as Tang Wulin raised his golden dragon claw to smash Long Chen down from the sky, Long Chen's body seemed to be grabbed and pulled away from Tang Wulin's grasp.

Chu Ci's gaze shifted rapidly, and he noticed a small, lit soul tool on Luo Hongchen's wrist.

It was this small soul tool that generated the suction force, pulling Long Chen back.

The scales of God swayed, and a force suddenly appeared that blocked the suction.

Losing the suction force, and seeing that Long Chen was about to fall halfway back, Tang Wulin raised the Golden Dragon Claw to give chase.

But You Dingqi swung his meteor hammer spirit with all his might, and the huge hammerhead shot straight toward Tang Wulin like a cannonball.

Tang Wulin took a blow from the meteor hammer head-on, and his hand immediately felt a tingling sensation, forcing him to stop.

Jian Mochen from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy held up the Heavenly Tiger Shield Martial Soul and protected Long Chen, who had fallen to the ground.

Chapter 112 The Heavenly Gang Sword Formation Astounds the World

Luo Hongchen said slowly, "Long Chen, you were careless."

"I understand, and this situation will definitely not happen again in the future," Long Chen said as he scrambled to his feet from the ground.

Tang Wulin, who had retreated back into the team, looked annoyed. His plan was to use the suppressive power of his bloodline on dragon-type martial souls, combined with the powerful strength of the Golden Dragon Claw, to catch Long Chen off guard and eliminate him directly.

But unexpectedly, a Cheng Yaojin appeared out of nowhere and managed to rescue Long Chen from his grasp.

After this ordeal, Long Chen will definitely be more vigilant and take precautions against me. Such a good opportunity to strike and kill will probably never come again.

Long Chen quickly adjusted his state and glanced at Tang Wulin with considerable apprehension. The fear originating from his bloodline made him decide to avoid fighting Tang Wulin for the time being and instead attack the others first.

Weng Daimin gave Luo Hongchen a wink, and Luo Hongchen nodded slightly. He circulated his soul power, and four soul rings, two yellow and two purple, rose from his feet. A toad with green eyes, a body that seemed to be made of metal, and only three legs attached itself to him.

The Three-Legged Golden Toad is a top-tier martial soul among toad-type martial souls, possessing an unparalleled talent for manipulating metal, making it extremely powerful.

Luo Hongchen stood still, his previous lazy demeanor gone, and unleashed more than twenty level-four soul-guided metal spheres.

These metal spheres floated in mid-air, enveloping Luo Hongchen.

With those metal spheres as the core, thick metal cannon barrels actually grew out, and the cold cannon barrels brought a great sense of oppression to everyone.

Luo Hongchen's second spirit ring lit up, a faint golden halo covering the spirit tool behind him, releasing a rich metallic aura. Suddenly, countless golden specks appeared in the air, surging wildly towards Luo Hongchen with the force of a vast ocean.

He used his second soul skill, Boiling Metal, which greatly increased his control over metals for a short period of time. He could absorb and control the metal elements in the air, reducing the consumption of soul power when using soul tools.

Xie Xie's face turned pale. "How does he control so many soul tools and so many soul cannons?"

Tang Wulin's golden spirit rings flashed as he unhesitatingly unleashed his Golden Dragon Body to block the Shrek Academy team, intending to use his physique to withstand Luo Hongchen's barrage.

A terrifying storm of soul power erupted in an instant, and countless blinding rays of light surged toward the Shrek Academy students.
