Douluo Continent: The True Body and Blood Soul, Starting from Blacksmithing

As he was knocked down, Huodao keenly realized that something was wrong.

Sure enough, a heavy punch landed quickly on his chest.

Unlike the punch he received in mid-air earlier, which could be deflected by flying, this punch was real and landed squarely on him!

He was roasted. To make his opponent seem powerful, he deliberately didn't use his soul power to defend himself after taking that punch.

If he didn't defend himself now, he was sure he would be killed! Not daring to be careless any longer, Huo Dao quickly used his soul power to protect his internal organs.

Before Huo Dao could catch his breath, another heavy punch landed, this time mixed with a bit of scorching flame.

The scorching flames spread along his soul power all the way to his internal organs.

The burning pain made him struggle desperately, and with his adult size and level 38 soul power reserves, he briefly broke free from Lin Yu's suppression.

But as soon as he stood up, the excruciating pain in his feet caused him to fall to his knees uncontrollably.

In his moment of struggle, he forgot that he had suffered penetrating wounds in both feet.

Before Huodao could even manage to stand up, Huodao stomped heavily on Huodao's right calf.

Click!

The cracking sound of bones breaking made him arch his upper body in pain, but Huo Dao was facing away from Lin Yu, so even with his upper body arched, he couldn't reach Lin Yu.

Not only that, but because he reached back, Lin Yu grabbed his hands.

With another snap, his arms were rendered immobile.

Fortunately, Lin Yu was the first to slap her mouth in order to avoid any possible screaming.

With all three limbs crippled, even the left leg, which was intact, was no longer throbbing, but the unbearable pain still made it tremble uncontrollably.

However, Lin Yu was not careless and directly stomped on his left leg, which could still cause him trouble, until it was crushed.

Seeing his opponent writhing in agony on the ground like a maggot, Lin Yu's anger flared even more.

Riding on the other's back, Lin Yu raised his hand and punched straight at the other's back, venting his dissatisfaction.

"Damn it, you like to play dumb to fool others, huh? What do you think this battle is? Your personal show?"

"You think your performance was amazing, don't you?"

"You really enjoyed your performance. Do you know how much I wanted to have a proper fight after absorbing my third spirit ring?"

"Someone actually thinks someone like you, a speculator, deserves to sit at the same table as me..."

In the audience, Xue Beng's expression was not good as he listened to Lin Yu's outburst on the field.

The one below was, after all, a Gold Soul Fighter he had found from the Soul Arena. Not only was his Soul Power higher than Lin Yu's, but he had also studied tactics to counter Lin Yu.

As for the information gap involved, it's unclear what Lin Yugang's third skill is.

He could accept defeat in a normal battle.

But now his own people are pinned to the ground, beaten without any power to resist. Isn't this a slap in the face?

"Brother, this is normal fighting. Why don't you ask him to tone it down a bit?"

Unable to bear the avalanche any longer, he turned to look at his older brother.

Xue Qinghe glanced at his younger brother with disdain, but his gaze involuntarily fell on the contestants behind him.

One of them kept his eyes closed and seemed to be resting the whole time, as if everything that was happening on the stage below had nothing to do with him.

Turning his gaze away, Xue Qinghe looked at his fourth brother with a smile.

"Fourth brother, I remember mentioning to you when the rules were being set up whether or not there should be referees in the fights."

"You were the one who said no, and you even talked about respecting the contestant's own choice? If I tell him to tone it down today, I wonder if you can get your people to do the same in the future?"

Avalanche simply smiled and said nothing more, watching the battle on the arena with an indifferent expression.

With his limbs crippled, Huodao had long lost the ability to resist, but in order to survive, he still made some efforts.

His most successful effort was to use the Flame-Breaking Blade to block his own back.

That shattered flame blade blocked thirteen punches for him before breaking into a pure stream of soul power.

Already severely injured, and with his martial spirit shattered, the Fire Blade instantly died.

At the critical moment, Lin Yu activated his second soul skill, restoring the fire blade's heartbeat.

After doing all this, Lin Yu leisurely got up, looked at the avalanche in the audience seats, and smiled apologetically.

"Prince Avalanche, I'm sorry to have beaten your man to this state, but don't worry, I've made sure he's kept alive until you can find a renowned doctor for him."

After saying that, Lin Yu even bowed solemnly, then looked apologetically at Xue Qinghe.

"Your Highness, this contestant is so pitiful. If he is judged to have lost this match, he will definitely be abandoned by Prince Avalanche. Why don't we just admit defeat in this match and give this contestant a way out?"

Upon hearing Lin Yu's words, Xue Beng's face immediately darkened. Xue Qinghe, however, smiled happily.

This guy is really wicked. He beat his opponent up like this and then admitted defeat. It's all for the sake of moral blackmailing Avalanche: this person risked his life because of Avalanche, so Avalanche has to take care of him.

The key point is that this kid is also very smart; after the fight, he knew to ask himself a question.

If you agree to it, that's true benevolence. But if Avalanche doesn't take care of this athlete afterwards, then you're a fake good guy, and who will dare to risk their lives for him in the future?

Thinking of this, Xue Qinghe put on a compassionate expression: "Although this competition has many implications, I can't bear to see such a righteous and courageous person who dares to fight to the death end up forgotten."

Standing up, Xue Qinghe looked at Xue Beng with a resentful expression: "Fourth brother, we concede defeat in this match."

Xue Qinghe waved to Lin Yu, signaling that the match was over and he could leave, and he also did not intend to stay any longer.

Before leaving, Xue Qinghe looked at Xue Beng with feigned envy and spoke sarcastically with a playful expression.

"Fourth brother, you are so lucky to have such a righteous man under your command. Don't let him down."

…………

"Brother Yu, is something wrong with your mental state? Why are you being so violent today?"

Back at their residence, after pouring Lin Yu a cup of tea, Xue Qinghe inquired about Lin Yu's current condition.

Lin Yu picked up her teacup, took a sip, and shrugged indifferently.

"It's not exactly violent, but it just suddenly occurred to me: Emperor Xueye is clearly leaning towards avalanche now, which means that avalanche will have a continuous stream of manpower."

"Today he used the excuse of challenging the eldest prince, and we won. In a few days, he will definitely send someone to cause trouble for us again."

"Instead of dealing with endless troubles, it's better to be ruthless and cripple those who dare to walk into the avalanche."

"As long as no one rushes to the avalanche area, he won't have anyone to use to cause trouble for the Crown Prince in the future."

Lin Yu's analysis was very logical, but Xue Qinghe was skeptical.

"Do you really think that way, and it's not just a simple case of having violent tendencies?"

Lin Yu was somewhat confused by Xue Qinghe's words: "Your Highness, do I look like the kind of person with violent tendencies?"

Xue Qinghe didn't respond to that, but instead rested his chin on his hands and looked at Lin Yu seriously: "Your teacher was the killing star of the Golden Iron Triangle back then. It's perfectly reasonable that you inherited her temper."

Upon hearing Xue Qinghe's words, Lin Yu's eyes flickered slightly.

"Does the Crown Prince mean that I can..."

"Um."
