Douluo Continent: Starting with a Void Treasure Trove

Chapter 188 This is pleasure!

Huo Yuhao hasn't just been enjoying the pleasure of cultivating with Ma Xiaotao these past few days.

His improvement is much greater than that of the original work.

Through cultivation and the enhancement of whale glue, his cultivation level has now reached the peak of level 29, and he is only one step away from becoming a Soul Master.

While everyone was still in shock, Jiang Tao had already prepared the stun grenade that Xu Yang had given him.

"Hehe, with this, even if I'm eliminated, I'll still be remembered by everyone!"

A hint of madness flashed in Jiang Tao's eyes.

He carried the stun grenade on his shoulder, and none of the team members around him were surprised, because they all knew that their captain was a Soul Master and also a Level 4 Soul Master.

Jiang Tao himself is considered a legend in the college.

As a traditional Soul Master Academy, Soul Masters are basically outliers.

However, Jiang Tao had maxed out his talent in soul tools, and the academy recognized his talent and specially hired a level 5 soul tool master from outside, who was the highest level soul tool master they could come into contact with.

Thus, he became a Level 4 Soul Master at the age of twenty.

He was just a substandard Soul Master certified in the Douluo Three Kingdoms, even worse, because Jiang Tao could only inscribe the simplest level four explosion array.

But—it is still undeniable that Jiang Tao's ability to get to where he is today based on this condition is a miracle.

Meanwhile, at Shrek Academy, Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao had already prepared their Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

"Golden splendor fades away —"

Just as Huo Yuhao was about to finish calling out his incredibly awkward name, Jiang Tao's level-four stun grenade had already hit their faces.

Ma Xiaotao had already noticed and wanted to intercept it immediately. Unfortunately, Xu Yang's products were either high-quality or prohibited.

A tremendous sound, accompanied by a blinding flash of light, engulfed the entire arena, and an invisible mental interference field was activated.

Huo Yuhao's simulated soul skill also became ineffective.

The audience members inside the stadium had no idea what was happening.

When they looked at the arena again, Huo Yuhao's spirit rings had already returned to their original color scheme of one white and one purple.

Wang Dong's spirit rings also returned to one yellow and two purple.

Everyone present fell silent.

Even Xu Jiawei, the Star Luo Emperor who was used to seeing big scenes, was at a loss as to how to handle this situation.

But Xu Yang's surprise wasn't over yet. Just as everyone was shocked by Huo Yuhao's fake Soul Emperor, bursts of wild laughter came from nowhere.

That laugh, clear, playful, and wildly joyful, echoed throughout the entire stadium.

Sometimes sharp, sometimes somber; one second joyful, the next feigning sadness.

At the same time, everyone present was silent because of Huo Yuhao's fake spirit ring just a second ago, making this laugh seem even more abrupt.

It's unclear whether they were laughing at Huo Yuhao for deceiving himself, or at the Shrek Academy members who were so optimistic about him being all show and no substance, openly cheating in the Soul Master Competition.

The laughter felt more painful to Huo Yuhao than being slashed by a knife. His plan, which seemed foolproof, had ended in such an absurd way.

He originally intended to bring glory to Shrek Academy.

At this moment, Huo Yuhao felt a surge of anger and frustration in his heart. Overwhelmed by anger, he coughed up a mouthful of blood and collapsed.

Fortunately, Wang Dong, who was beside him, reacted quickly and caught Huo Yuhao in her arms, not caring that Huo Yuhao's blood had stained her clothes.

Ma Xiaotao was even more furious upon seeing this.

The Fiery Phoenix Martial Soul has possessed him.

"Sixth Soul Skill————"

Before Ma Xiaotao could finish speaking, Jiang Tao, as if he had expected it, led the group from Tianling Advanced Soul Master Academy to the arena.

He smiled as he looked at the Shrek Academy students still on the field.

This is what Xu Yang told him that day: the referees on the stage are not necessarily reliable.

Xu Yang remembered that in the original story, even with a Title Douluo as the referee, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy and Shrek Academy still suffered considerable casualties in the final battle.

Especially on the side of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, it seems that several of their regular team members have died.

It's better to trust yourself than to trust others.

The defensive soul-guided shield on the field also provides protection for those below the stage.

As expected, despite the referee's intervention, Ma Xiaotao still unleashed her sixth soul skill.

Unfortunately, Ma Xiaotao's furious attack only caused a ripple on the soul-guiding shield with its 108 charging devices.

Then nothing happened.

The audience below the stage were not surprised by this; in their view, Shrek Academy must have had a deeper meaning in doing so.

Xiao Hongchen, who was standing in the spectator stands of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, couldn't help but gape, while Meng Hongchen also frowned.

They hadn't expected that even with the referee personally involved, the person from Shrek Academy would still dare to make a move.

It seems Xu Yang was right. Shrek Academy was like a local tyrant in the Soul Master Competition, arbitrarily deciding the life and death of others. The most outrageous thing was that at the end, the referee only gave a symbolic yellow card and that was it.

As for Jiang Tao's future, Xu Yang had already made arrangements for him. Tianming is currently lacking mid- to low-level personnel, so this is a win-win situation.

Zhang Lexuan's beautiful eyes were fixed on Xu Yang, the meaning clearly being, "So, this is what you meant by going out earlier?"

Di Ni'er also remembered what Xu Yang had said to her before about wanting to have some fun, and her gaze involuntarily fell on Xu Yang, who was still savoring all of this.

Meng Hongchen knew what kind of person Xu Yang was, and after seeing Xu Yang's expression, she guessed what was going on.

Only Xiao Hongchen remained in the dark.

Seeing that the three women were all looking at Xu Yang, Xiao Hongchen pointed at him with her finger and asked cautiously, "Brother Yang, did you make that level four stun grenade?"

Xu Yang nodded in satisfaction, as if he were showing off his achievement in front of the others.

"How was it? Was it interesting?"

The four remained silent.

Seeing that his attempt at creating this didn't seem to have the effect he had envisioned, Xu Yang couldn't help but lower his head and think about where he had gone wrong.

As for where that laughter comes from, check out the original soundtrack of Ah-ha's Maniacal Laughter, personally recorded by Void Archives.

In the end, because all members of Tianling Advanced Soul Master Academy left the arena midway, Shrek Academy won in this strange way.

This opening match is probably unique to Scorpion Papa since the Soul Master Tournament began.

However, the Shrek team, despite their victory, didn't seem too pleased.

Xu Yang turned his gaze to the location of Shrek Academy, where Yan Shaozhe's face was now as black as the bottom of a pot.

The others didn't look much better either.
