Douluo Continent: Starting with a Void Treasure Trove

Chapter 209 Still the Despicable Xu Sanshi

This is largely related to artificial spirit rings.

Ye Wuqing's fifth spirit ring is more expensive than a normal ten-thousand-year spirit ring.

The process of creating this spirit ring is quite complicated, but the advantage is that, with his current cultivation level, if he were to unleash his fifth spirit skill at full power, its destructive power would not be weaker than that of some spirit emperors.

As for the other one from Zhengtian Academy, his name is Yu Mengdi.

This special one possesses an Angelic Martial Soul on her striking Martial Soul, a powerful Martial Soul personally certified by the Tang God King ten thousand years ago.

Xu Yang guessed that this person was very likely a descendant of the Angel Legion.

Xu Yang didn't pay much attention to the rest of the people.

Di Ni'er noticed that Xu Yang was staring blankly in the direction of Zhengtian Academy, and following his gaze, she saw Yu Mengdi.

She secretly reached out and pinched Xu Yang's waist hard.

At the same time, he said in a sour and somewhat resentful tone, "Is it pretty?"

Although it didn't cause Xu Yang much pain, after undergoing the Fusion Warrior surgery, his physical body had been enhanced to a very strong level; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to become a Dragon Knight.

However, he still cooperated and begged for mercy.

The emotional value aspect must be properly addressed.

"You were staring there so intently just now?"

"What on earth are you thinking?"

Di Ni'er returned to the main topic, and Zhang Lexuan also cast a curious glance at her.

Xu Yang then explained the special features of the Angelic Martial Soul to the two of them.

"Angelic Martial Soul—"

Xu Yang then remembered that there seemed to be an Angelic Martial Soul Master in the Sun Moon Empire with an even purer bloodline.

It seems to be called something like — Ye Guyi?

The Holy Angel Martial Soul is also a top-tier Martial Soul that shines brightly ten thousand years later.

The light, fire, and holy attributes inherent in this martial soul make it invincible against evil soul masters. If it were cultivated to its full potential, Ye Guyi would certainly be worthy of being called the "Evil Soul Master Slaughter Queen."

However, it has another more significant feature: one can improve one's cultivation by hunting evil spirit masters; the higher the level of the evil spirit master, the more one's cultivation will improve.

Xu Yang couldn't help but start to let his thoughts wander.

"If Ye Guyi were to kill Ye Xishui—how much soul power would that increase?"

Amidst their laughter and banter, the competition on the stage began. Just like in the original story, both sides drew the 2-2-3 battle strategy.

On Shrek Academy's side, the first pair to take the stage were Xu Sanshi and Dai Yueheng.

Anyone with eyes can see that Shrek Academy is simply using this as a training exercise. Dai Yueheng's role is very clear: he's there to cover for them in this first round.

This way, Xu Sanshi can fully showcase himself.

Xu Sanshi himself struck a few rather flamboyant poses, and occasionally blew kisses to the female audience members on stage.

It wasn't until he saw Jiang Nannan holding a pair of scissors in her right hand and a cucumber in her left, snipping it into several pieces, that he felt a chill run down his spine and became much more obedient.

Zhengtian Academy was equally excited because they had made the right bet.

Their bet was that Shrek Academy would send out a Soul Emperor to secure victory in the first match, allowing them to use a race-the-horse strategy to eliminate their two lower-strength teammates first.

Exchange your inferior horse for the superior horse on the other side.

It's a steal no matter how you look at it.

Therefore, this time, they sent out the two members of their team with the lowest soul power level.

Yang Yifan and Yan'er have martial souls of a dagger and a fireball, respectively.

As for cultivation level, he's only at the Soul Sect level.

"This Zhengtian Academy has some interesting ideas."

On Shrek Academy's side, Wang Yan chuckled lightly.

His words revealed a confident air of mastery.

After the referee announced the start, Dai Yueheng of the Shrek team, like Ma Xiaotao in the previous games, simply stood by and did not make any extra moves.

Xu Sanshi, however, began to run off the field without saying a word. But this time, his Xuanming Replacement had already been exposed, so his underhanded move was naturally guarded against.

Since they were destined to lose this match anyway, they might as well lose in a spectacular fashion like Jiang Tao did before.

However, the two of them couldn't handle such a large task.

So Yan'er immediately activated her fourth soul skill—Flame Cage—and imprisoned Xu Sanshi, who was about to run off the field.

At the same time, the third soul skill, Purple Flame Ball, is launched, aiming to unleash a full combo of damage and maximize output.

Yang Yifan had already made preparations. As soon as Xu Sanshi was severely weakened, he would immediately enter the fray to finish him off. This was not for any other reason than that Xu Sanshi's performance earlier had disgusted him.

The saying "When a person is shameless, he is invincible" is quite fitting for Xu Sanshi.

"How—is this possible?"

Yan'er could clearly sense the situation within her fourth soul skill. Xu Sanshi, who had been trapped in the fire cage and had also taken a hit from a purple flame ball, was now completely unharmed.

This nearly shattered her Dao heart, and she could no longer maintain her fourth soul skill.

Xu Sanshi also appeared in front of everyone.

He was activating his second soul skill, the Xuanming Shield Formation, completely surrounding himself from all sides. He even deliberately put on a relaxed expression, as if Yan'er's soul skill was just a tickle to him.

At the same time, he put one hand behind his back and began to mock the person opposite him.

"If your team is all at this level, I advise you to surrender sooner rather than later, so as to save everyone's time."

"Do you even know what the Xuanming Turtle Martial Soul is?"

"I can even withstand the evil fire of the Fiery Phoenix, so your temperature is so low that I wouldn't dare use such a low flame to boil water at home."

Xu Sanshi's taunts had a significant effect; at least Yan'er, whose Dao heart was shattered, was truly at a loss.

That combination of techniques was already her most powerful attack, but—

Yang Yifan felt the same way, but they had agreed beforehand that even if they lost, they should at least put on a good performance and not let themselves down.

So he and Yan'er exchanged another glance.

The two seemed to have made up their minds.

Meanwhile, Xu Yang, standing to the side, began to analyze the situation on the field for Di Ni'er.

"Xu Sanshi has consumed about 40% of his soul power. Look at the hand he's holding behind his back; it's a baby bottle."

"He talks so much nonsense for two main reasons."

"Firstly, the longer we delay, the more soul power he can absorb from the milk bottle, increasing our chances of winning."

"Secondly, it is related to his own soul skills."

"He himself has almost no soul skills that he can use to take the initiative to attack, which is a common problem for all defensive soul masters in the early stages."

"Among all types of Soul Masters, apart from the support type and the rather special food type, only the defense type Soul Masters rely most on their teammates."

"Therefore, the people of the Xuanming Sect began to explore new paths and chose a rather special way to obtain attack power."

"And I usually call this method counter-vibration."
