Douluo: The Dragon King - I Planted the Divine Tree in Douluo.

Chapter 284 Selection of Participants

"Arrogant!"

Le Zhengyu was thoroughly enraged by Wu Siduo's remarks.

As the most outstanding successor of the Angel Family in this generation, although Yue Zhengyu did not make it onto the list of young geniuses, he was confident that he would not lose to anyone on the list.

These bumpkins, who seem to have appeared out of nowhere and whom even the Southern Army has never heard of, dare to spout nonsense at him. It's like an ant trying to shake a tree—utterly overestimating their own strength.

"Young Master, let's forget about it!"

"Arguing with a group of girls would damage the reputation of the Angel Family and the Southern Legion if word got out."

Seeing that Yue Zhengyu was so angry that he was almost losing his mind, Sunbo quickly tried to calm him down.

Although Wu Siduo and the others' arrogant attitude made him, the butler, very unhappy.

But no matter how you look at it, this whole thing started because Yue Zhengyu couldn't give up his offer.

In terms of public opinion, they are the ones in the wrong.

And regardless of whether Yue Zhengyu wins the next competition, this matter will cause a great uproar at Shrek Academy.

If someone were to accuse Le Zhengyu of "bullying the weak and abducting women," it would inevitably affect the reputation of the Southern Legion and the Angel Family.

Upon hearing Sunbo's reminder, Le Zhengyu, who had been acting impulsively, instantly calmed down.

As the future patriarch of the Angel Family, Yue Zhengyu is arrogant, not stupid.

As the most outstanding heir of the Angel family, victory was a given for him.

Therefore, even if he wins this competition, it will be meaningless and will prove nothing.

But if they lose, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Although he didn't think he would lose to these few weak women, no one wanted to risk something that would only bring harm and no benefit.

"Hmph! I'm in a good mood today, so I won't bother with you!"

After finding a way to save face, Le Zhengyu turned to leave.

"You can't leave!"

Seeing that Yue Zhengyu was trying to run away, Wu Siduo said solemnly, word by word, "First-year student, Wu Siduo, hereby issues a challenge to your soul battle."

Sun Bo's expression changed drastically after hearing Wu Siduo's request for a battle spirit. He hadn't expected Wu Siduo to make a request for a battle spirit to Le Zhengyu.

To prevent students from fighting privately, disrupting order, or causing death, Shrek Academy specially set up a Soul Fighting Arena.

If both parties agree, they can settle their grudges in the ring under the witness of Shrek teacher.

Of course, there is one exception.

That is, lower-grade students challenge higher-grade students.

At Shrek Academy, if a junior student requests a battle spirit from a senior student, the senior student cannot refuse.

Although Yue Zhengyu had been cultivating in the secret place of the Angel Family before, he only came to Shrek Academy to study today.

But he is a genuine second-year student at Shrek Academy.

Therefore, Le Zhengyu had no right to refuse Wu Siduo's request for a battle spirit.

And for some reason, he felt like he had heard the name "Wu Siduo" somewhere before.

Just as Le Zhengyu was about to leave, his raised foot froze in mid-air; he could hardly believe his ears.

This ignorant bumpkin actually dared to challenge him, the descendant of angels.

Although he himself did not have much malice towards Wu Siduo, since Wu Siduo wanted to fight him in a soul battle.

He wouldn't mind giving Wu Siduo a profound lesson, letting her know the difference between mortals and geniuses.

After taking a deep breath, Yue Zhengyu turned around and, with a mocking smile, said to Wu Siduo, "Fine, very well!"

"I accept your challenge to fight!"

Seeing this, Wu Siduo didn't waste any words and took out her soul communication device to open Shrek Campus Connect.

After finding the Soul Arena in the campus app, Wu Siduo was about to enter her student ID and name when a hand reached out and blocked the screen.

When Wu Siduo looked up, she discovered that the person blocking her was actually Gu Yue.

Looking at Gu Yue who was stopping her, Wu Siduo was somewhat confused. "Gu Yue, what do you mean by this?"

"Xiaoyan is my best friend. I can't just stand by and watch her get bullied without doing anything!"

"So I'll handle this guy!"

Gu Yue spoke calmly, her nonchalant tone making it seem as if Le Zhengyu was utterly insignificant in her eyes.

Wu Siduo rejected Gu Yue's suggestion without even thinking, "No way! In terms of relationship, I'm still Xiao Yan's cousin!"

Just as Gu Yue and Wu Siduo were locked in a stalemate, Yuan En Ye Hui also joined the battle.

Yuan Enhui looked at the two of them seriously and said, "This whole thing started because of me, so let me handle it!"

She genuinely liked Xu Xiaoyan, the girl who showed concern for her from the very beginning and called her "Sister Yuanen".

Moreover, Xu Xiaoyan only got a ride with Le Zhengyu because of her, so if she doesn't stand up for Xu Xiaoyan, she might as well bang her head against the wall and die.

Even though Yuanen Yehui said that, Wu Siduo and Gu Yue showed no intention of backing down.

Looking at the three people who were vying to stand up for her, Xu Xiaoyan was deeply moved.

Helping Su Mo build his harem was definitely the right choice.

Otherwise, where would she find so many loyal and devoted sisters?

But little did Xu Xiaoyan know that the three of them were so unwilling to back down not only because they genuinely wanted to stand up for her.

More importantly, neither side really knows the other's strength.

If the person they're facing loses, they'll lose face big time.

Therefore, each of them felt that sending themselves into battle was the safest option.

Seeing himself being picked over like vegetables at a market, Le Zhengyu was so angry he almost ground his teeth to powder.

This was the first time in his life he had been so ignored.

He was determined to make his opponent regret opposing him in the upcoming battle, risking the honor of his angelic family.

Seeing the three locked in a stalemate, Xu Xiaoyan weakly raised her hand and suggested, "How about we decide who goes first using rock-paper-scissors?"

After hearing Xu Xiaoyan's suggestion, Gu Yue, Wu Siduo, and Yuan Enyehui's tough attitude softened considerably.

"Let's do as Xiaoyan says and decide who goes first using rock-paper-scissors."

Gu Yue looked around and then said calmly.

"OK!"

Wu Siduo readily agreed.

Seeing this, Yuan Enhui nodded in agreement.

"Rock, paper, scissors!"

With all three players making their moves simultaneously, Wu Siduo ultimately won with "Scissors".

Wu Siduo was afraid that Gu Yue and Yuan En Ye Hui would change their minds and give her a best-of-three match, so she quickly typed her name and student ID number on the screen.

The typing speed is so fast that a series of afterimages appear.

After the facial verification was successful, Wu Siduo decisively handed her soul guide to Le Zhengyu.

"Your turn!"

Wu Siduo urged him on expressionlessly.
