Douluo V: Starting with daily check-ins, I'm trying to trick Xiao Wu into becoming my wife.

Inside the Great Battle Arena, countless gamblers rushed to place bets on their favorite teams.

"Haha, I'm betting on the Shrek Team! With Death God Long Aotian in charge, the Iron Blood Team is bound to lose!"

"Stop arguing! The other side has three peak Soul Kings as reinforcements! Most of Shrek Academy's people are only Soul Masters or below. Even if Long Aotian is incredibly strong, he can't turn the tide. Think clearly, I bet on the Iron Blood Team to win!"

"Just you wait and see, you'll realize you're wrong soon enough."

"That's utter nonsense!"

"Looks like you're new here? Death God Long Aotian is a legend in the Soul Arena, the Soul King who achieved an unprecedented 100-game winning streak!"

"The King of Fighting Spirits? Goodness, I'll bet on Shrek too!"

"Go for it! Follow along!"

The betting area was instantly packed with people, like a thousand troops besieging a city, or a tourist attraction overflowing with people during a holiday. A large number of gamblers were throwing their chips at the Shrek team.

This is the gamblers' genuine trust in the God of Death, Long Aotian.

The staff at the fighting arena watched this scene with a cold smile on their lips.

"A bunch of韭菜 (a metaphor for easily exploited people) waiting to be harvested. Shrek Team can't win this match."

The current situation is exactly what the Arena officials wanted.

A large amount of capital flowed to Shrek Academy. If the Iron-Blooded Team won, they could turn the tide in the Soul Arena and make a fortune. In their eyes, the Iron-Blooded Team had no chance of losing.

The atmosphere reached its peak, and the commentator's high-pitched voice resounded throughout the venue.

"In the Soul Fighting Arena, fists and kicks have no eyes; life and death are at your own risk! Both contestants, take your positions!"

"Battle Spirit, officially begins!"

dong dong dong-

The war drums thundered.

On the arena, the Shrek Team and the Iron Blood Team stood on opposite sides, forming their battle formations.

On Shrek Academy's side, only Ao Yin has reached the Soul Master level.

Dai Mubai, Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, Ning Rongrong, Ma Hongjun, and Oscar remain at the Soul Venerable level or below.

In contrast, the Iron-Blooded Team has all members with a Soul Power level of 30 or higher, and four of them are Soul Masters with a level of 40 or higher. Their average cultivation level is significantly higher than that of Shrek Academy.

Mad Rhino, Demon Spider, and Iron Hand were all peak level 59 Soul Kings. Simply by standing still, their immense pressure completely suppressed the Shrek Academy team.

A deep, rhinoceros-like voice rang out.

"The name 'Iron Blood' doesn't suit our current roster. From today onwards, our team will be renamed—'Berserker Team'!"

"Yes, Captain!"

The original team members, including Tie Long and Tie Hu, responded in unison.

Everyone had full confidence in the strength of the three Soul Kings.

Ao Yin scoffed coldly: "Berserker Team? What a coincidence, the team that defeated you today is the even more insane...Shrek Team."

Mad Rhino's eyes widened as he roared angrily, "Boys, you're courting death!"

Faced with the other party's provocation, Ao Yin remained unshaken and shouted loudly.

"Everyone, activate your Martial Souls!"

hum-

The violent soul power spread outwards, and one after another, phantom images of martial souls appeared, while various soul rings slowly rose from beneath everyone's feet.

The commentator's voice, tinged with excitement, resounded throughout the stands.

"They're here! Look at their martial spirits! Long Aotian needs no introduction!"

"First place: Evil-Eyed White Tiger! Second place: Soft-Boned Enchanting Rabbit! Third place: Netherworld Spirit Cat! Fourth place: Sausage! Fifth place: Evil Fire Phoenix! Sixth place: Seven Treasures Glazed Tile!"

The entire audience held their breath.

This set of martial soul configuration is luxurious, but its soul power fluctuation is far inferior to that of the opposing Berserker team.

Ao Yin's gaze sharpened as he stared intently at the three peak level 59 Soul Kings opposite him.

Mad Rhino, with a rhinoceros martial soul; Demon Spider, with a spider martial soul; Iron Hand, with a golden spear martial soul; Iron Dragon and Iron Tiger wield giant hammers; and the martial souls of the others are also varied, such as Fire Phoenix Sword, Blood Demon Axe, Heaven-Shaking Axe, Serpent Spear, and Soul-Breaking Spear.

To Ao Yin's surprise, the one with the highest potential martial soul among the Berserker Team was not the captain, Kuang Xi, but the female demon spider with the spider martial soul.

Dai Mubai withstood the ten waves of violent pressure coming at him from the opposite side and laughed out loud.

"I thought they were some formidable enemy. In terms of martial spirit, we have a clear advantage; they're just a group of soul masters with higher soul power."

Kuangxi's face turned ugly, and he retorted sharply.

"No matter how strong a martial spirit is, it can only bow down and admit defeat in the face of an absolute difference in soul power!"

"Brothers, let's go! Don't hold back! The three of us working together will take care of the so-called King of Fighting Spirits, Death God Long Aotian. Iron Dragon, Iron Tiger, the remaining six brats are yours to deal with."

In a mere instant, the mad rhinoceros had arranged the tactics perfectly.

"Don't worry, there will be a generous reward in the Soul Arena after we take down Long Aotian."

"King of Fighting Spirits? You can be arrogant in a one-on-one match, but now that the three of us are teaming up, let's see how you can still act up!"

Hearing the arrogant shouts of the three peak Soul Kings, Ma Hongjun from Shrek Academy was the first to lose his temper.

Flames erupted from his body as he roared, "Stop spouting nonsense! If you want to mess with Brother Yin, you'll have to get past us first!"

He didn't intend to follow the opponent's tactics; he wanted to disrupt their rhythm directly.

The second soul skill, Phoenix Reborn, bursts forth in conjunction with the first soul skill, Phoenix Fire Line!

The raging phoenix flames instantly engulfed most of the arena.

Using the flames to obscure their vision, Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing vanished from the Iron Blood Team's sight in a flash.

"First Soul Skill, Netherworld Thrust!"

In an instant, countless sharp spikes suddenly burst forth from the arena, covering the entire area.

Dai Mubai attacked simultaneously, unleashing a massive barrage of attacks: White Tiger Blazing Light Wave combined with White Tiger Meteor Shower.

Ning Rongrong's hands moved swiftly, forming hand seals: "Seven treasures emerge from the glazed tiles! The seven treasures have names: first, power; second, speed!"

Oscar shouted encouragement from the sidelines: "Prepare for the storm!"

Dust and sand rose up on the arena.

Faced with the overwhelming offensive, the Iron Dragon, Iron Tiger, and their fellow Soul Masters dared not be careless and urged their Soul Power to defend themselves.

Kuangxi, Yaozhu, and Tieshou remained completely undisturbed, their gazes all fixed on Ao Yin.

This King of Fighting Spirits has remained calm since the start of the battle, as if he were merely a spectator.

"Kid, aren't you going to make a move? Are you underestimating our Berserker Team?"

Ao Yin glanced at it indifferently.

"Three noisy clowns jumping around."

hum!

A jet-black, ten-thousand-year-old soul ring slowly rose from beneath Ao Yin's feet...

The next second, the color changed drastically, instantly turning from black to crimson!

"A...a hundred thousand-year soul ring?"

"How is that possible?"

The entire venue fell into a deathly silence for a moment, then erupted in a deafening roar!

On the arena, the pupils of the three peak level 59 Soul Kings—Mad Rhino, Demon Spider, and Iron Hand—suddenly shrank to the size of pinpoints!

The surging, boundless soul power within him instantly froze, and the oppressive aura around him vanished without a trace. A profound sense of horror and dread rose in his heart!

As peak Soul Kings, they knew better than anyone the value of a 100,000-year Soul Ring!

Looking across the entire Douluo Continent, any family or force qualified to touch a 100,000-year spirit ring must be extraordinary!

A mere Soul Master, and a legendary 100,000-year Soul Ring has appeared beneath his feet?!

Tie Long, Tie Hu, and the rest of the team stood frozen in place.

His mind went completely blank, his face was dazed, and all his arrogance, contempt, and mockery were instantly crushed.

Tens of thousands of spectators in the stands went completely crazy!

Exclamations of surprise echoed throughout the entire Great Soul Arena!

"This is insane! I must be seeing things! A Soul Master's first Soul Ring is already a hundred thousand years old?!"

"Hundreds of years, thousands of years, tens of thousands of years! That's the normal person's soul ring configuration! Who starts with a hundred thousand years' worth of soul rings?!"

"No wonder he achieved a hundred-game winning streak and secured his position as the King of Fighters! This stats... is he even human?!"

In the VIP viewing room, Flander and Yu Xiaogang suddenly stood up, their eyes wide open, their faces filled with disbelief.

The Shrek Six Monsters were completely stunned, staring intently at the tall figure in the center of the arena.

They knew that Ao Yin was hiding his strength and had many secrets. They always thought that Ao Yin's first spirit ring was only a ten-thousand-year spirit ring!

Who would have thought!

They underestimated Ao Yin; his first spirit ring was actually a 100,000-year limit...

"Ao Yin, who exactly are you?"

They became increasingly curious about Ao Yin's identity!
