Douluo Continent: Dragon's Journey Across the World

Chapter 148 The Birth of the Three Strongest

After the Beast Academy defeated the New Kamikaze Team, everyone was in an uproar. No one expected that the Beast Academy's strength was unfathomable and that it seemed to be getting stronger and stronger, as if it had an endless supply of trump cards.

Especially Yang Ping'an, after he used his fourth soul skill, it was clear to everyone that this soul skill was incredibly powerful. Many people were speculating about where the top of the Beast Academy's strength really was. Perhaps they could really challenge the Spirit Hall team.

Tang San, his face somewhat grim, asked Yu Xiaogang, "Teacher, it seemed like Yang Ping'an's palm strike completely ignored Feng Xiaotian's defense. What's going on?"

Yu Xiaogang shook his head: "I'm not too sure either. I saw in the data of the Spirit Hall before that Spirit Masters occasionally have some top-grade Spirit Skills, which can ignore the opponent's defense."

"But such soul skills are extremely rare. They basically require top-grade soul beasts, at least the kind that are only seen once in a hundred years, and only some top-tier martial souls can achieve this."

Tang San originally thought that the Taotie Divine Ox he encountered was already quite good, but it seemed to be somewhat inferior to Yang Ping'an's fourth soul skill, the Golden Crocodile King.

The fourth round of the finals continued, with the Spirit Hall team defeating Tianshui Academy and Shrek Academy defeating Black Tiger Academy. The three teams officially entered the fifth round, also known as the final three.

Whether it was Yu Xiaogang, Tang San, or even the rest of the Shrek Academy members, they all looked overjoyed. With four Soul Masters, they had actually achieved such good results, making them feel proud and elated.

This is a tremendous achievement, especially for all the members of Shrek Academy; after all, there is no harm without comparison.

Compared to Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing, and Dai Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun, and Yu Tianheng and Yu Tianxin, both Thunder Academy and Star Luo Royal Academy have been eliminated early, with vastly different records.

Yu Tianheng and Yu Tianxin have always been in competition. As the twin stars of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family, Yu Tianheng has clearly gained more recognition from the family, achieving success in both love and career.

Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing, having not directly faced off against Xingluo Royal Academy, but with their teams performing better than Davis, earned themselves an opportunity to compete head-on in the future.

As for the other students at Shrek Academy, based on their current performance, they can basically secure a bright future for themselves.

Yang Ping'an just sneered at this. One of his purposes in participating in this Soul Master Competition has always been to target Shrek Academy. He absolutely cannot let Shrek Academy win the championship as easily as in the original story.

Especially during the competition, all the powerful opponents that Shrek encountered in the original story were encountered by the Beast Academy. They basically did not encounter any strong teams throughout the competition. If you say that there was nothing fishy about the draw process, I'm afraid no one would believe it.

Moreover, Yang Ping'an knew that Shrek Academy had a trump card: the Seven-in-One Martial Soul Fusion Skill. In the final three-team battle, they could at least pull off a surprise victory.

Although Shrek Academy encountered Canghui Academy in the preliminary rounds, with the students from Shrek Academy having powerful backgrounds and Titan always protecting Tang San, even if Shi Nian from Canghui Academy was bold, he wouldn't dare to kill the Shrek Academy students.

Canghui Academy had used the Seven-in-One Fusion Technique multiple times during the entire Soul Master Competition, which enabled them to become a dark horse and achieve seventh place in the preliminary rounds. This definitely provided Yu Xiaogang with some reference.

As for the so-called Seven-in-One Spirit Fusion Skill, although it is powerful, it definitely has many flaws. First, it concentrates all the spirit power on Tang San, making the other six people living targets. As long as any one of them is hit, the so-called Spirit Fusion Skill will break down on its own and will instead cause a backlash.

The second problem is that although Tang San can achieve the true form of the weapon spirit by relying on the Clear Sky Hammer, his attack range and range are very limited, and he lacks the ability to attack from a distance.

Finally, the true form of the weapon spirit consumes a great deal of energy from the body, far beyond what Tang San's current physical capabilities can withstand. If a long-range entanglement method is adopted, Tang San can definitely be worn down first.

Just as Yang Ping'an was lost in thought in the room, Chrysanthemum Douluo suddenly appeared in the room.

Seeing that Yang Ping'an seemed preoccupied, Chrysanthemum Douluo said, "Ping'an, you performed very well in this Soul Master Competition. Now you seem a little unhappy. Are you worried about something? You can rest assured about that. My disciple is not so easily bullied."

Yang Ping'an hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Master, I'm thinking about the finals right now. Is there anything I need to pay attention to during the finals?"

Chrysanthemum Douluo nodded: "With your strength, it's normal to worry about the finals. Nana and the others are very strong, and I'm afraid you can't handle them at this stage."

Yang Ping'an shook his head: "Master, I'm not afraid of Hu Liena and the others. On the contrary, I'm afraid that if I eliminate them, it will put you in a difficult position and cause trouble for myself."

"this……"

Ju Douluo was speechless upon hearing this. Was his disciple being a little too confident? However, as he said, the Pope had been preparing for the finals for a long time. If Nana and the others really lost, it would probably cause quite a bit of trouble.

However, after hesitating for a moment, he immediately said, "Ping An, the Spirit Hall team is the strongest because they have three Spirit Kings, and all of their Spirit Masters are above level 45. Even if you can defeat one Spirit King, you can't defeat Nana and the other two, not to mention that the other four are also above level 45."

Yang Ping'an shook his head: "Master, I am absolutely confident. If I want to, I can easily defeat the seven members of the Spirit Hall. At least, the Beast Academy can defeat the Spirit Hall team in a one-on-one battle without any problem."

The fifth round of the finals is divided into two stages. In the first stage, each team sends seven players to compete in individual battles. The three teams take turns sending players to the stage until the last player wins. The two losing teams will then compete in a loser's bracket team battle. Only after winning the team battle can they challenge the winner's bracket team.

All of these matches are completed within two days, so the battles will be extremely tough, and you could be eliminated if you're not careful.

At this moment, Chrysanthemum Douluo's face also became unusually serious: "Ping An, what are your plans now? Are you planning to force your way into the one-on-one battle?"

Yang Ping'an shook his head again: "Master, I don't want to make things difficult for you. I can cooperate with the Spirit Hall, but I hope to receive fair treatment and appropriate compensation from the Spirit Hall."

Chrysanthemum Douluo's lips twitched slightly. His disciple was quite cunning; after all this time, all he wanted was a reward.

However, he pondered for a while before speaking: "Ping An, you should understand that everything in this world requires strength to speak for itself. At least you are not strong enough to negotiate with the Pope, not even I am."

Yang Ping'an smiled slightly: "Master, let's wait and see. There's bound to be a good show in the finals of this Soul Master Competition."

When Chrysanthemum Douluo heard this, he could only smile bitterly. It seemed that his disciple was somewhat incompatible with the Spirit Hall, and he was caught in the middle, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

Yang Ping'an seemed to have thought of something: "Master, do you have any manuals on ring fusion? I'd like to learn them."

Chrysanthemum Douluo looked a little surprised: "Ping An, Ring Fusion is not a special secret technique. Many families have it, but it generally requires a high level of martial soul, and there are certain risks involved in the ring fusion process. Moreover, beast martial souls don't use ring fusion very often."

Although Chrysanthemum Douluo said that, he still took out several secret manuals from his body, which were basically all about the secret techniques of various families to fuse rings, and even the secret techniques of the Breaking Clan.

Yang Ping'an accepted the manual with a look of delight. Having a Title Douluo as a teacher was indeed a good thing; at least he could avoid many detours in his cultivation.

Of course, Chrysanthemum Douluo recently gave Yang Ping'an many other secret manuals, which are basically some inherited secret techniques from the upper three sects or the lower four sects, and even some secret manuals from other niche sects, but they are all very effective for Soul Master cultivation.
