Douluo Amon: I am the Heavenly Venerable of the Dragon King.

Chapter 335 The Number One Genius of Douluo Continent

After Lu Fa defeated Hua Lantang with incredible ease, the entire arena fell silent. The hundreds of thousands of Xingluo City spectators were completely silent for a moment before a violent uproar rose from the stands.

Who could have imagined that Hua Lantang would lose the match? To a completely unknown opponent. That's none other than the Wolf King Hua Lantang! Ranked fourth among the Eight Heavenly Kings, yet he still lost.

Moreover, it was a crushing defeat in such a dramatic way. This time it was different from the previous match where Su Mu lost to Tang Wulin. Hua Lantang vomited blood and collapsed to the ground after fully using the One-Word Battle Armor.

The whole process was utterly baffling!

From the audience's perspective, at least, the entire match was completely inexplicable from beginning to end.

First, Hua Lantang launched an attack on Lu Fa, but seemed to be frightened and retreated directly.

After finally regrouping, Hua Lantang unleashed two powerful soul skills to clash with Lu Fa, but Lu Fa didn't even flinch before being sent flying. In the end, Hua Lantang even resorted to using his battle armor.

However, after Lu Fa took a few steps toward him, Hua Lantang vomited blood and collapsed to the ground.

What's going on? Has Hua Lantang's hidden ailment relapsed? But it doesn't seem like it!

"Contestant number 413 has won this match." The referee quickly announced the result, but his eyes were filled with shock. Even he couldn't figure out how Lu Fa had defeated Hua Lantang.

After Lu Fa stepped off the stage, medical personnel immediately came to the scene, and Hua Lantang was quickly carried off by the staff to receive treatment.

……

"Okay, I understand." Dai Yueyan nodded, then turned off the soul communication device in his hand, and looked at Long Yue and said in a deep voice, "The medical staff just informed me that although Lan Tang's injury has been brought under control, he probably won't be able to play in the match for the time being."

"Fourth Brother, how badly is Cousin Lan injured?" Dai Yun'er asked with concern. As the youngest of the eight Heavenly Kings of Monster Academy, she received a lot of care and attention from the others.

Now that she heard that Hua Lantang, who had always taken good care of her, seemed to be seriously injured, how could she not be anxious?

"Ai-do has four broken ribs, and there are obvious dislocations in the bones of his hands. The other bones in his body also seem to have been compressed by heavy objects. Although there is no threat to his life, he probably won't be able to play in the game for a while."

"How could this be? That Lu Fa only took a few steps, how could Brother Lan suffer such serious injuries?" Dai Yun'er covered her mouth with both hands and said in disbelief.

"That should be a combat technique that can draw upon the opponent's vital energy and strike both physically and mentally." At this moment, Long Yue's deep voice rang out.

"However, this combat technique is probably not perfect yet. When that Lu Fa took the first few steps, he used his blood and qi combined with his mental power to lock onto Lan Tang firmly, making it impossible for him to escape the influence of the combat technique."

"Aidou was too confident. If he had used his battle armor from the start, or interrupted his opponent's skill activation, he wouldn't have lost so badly."

Although Long Yue looks big and burly, he has his own unique insights into combat. He quickly and incisively pointed out the flaws in Lu Fa's Nine Steps to Heaven.

However, it is not hard to see this, after all, Lu Fa himself has only recently created this ability, so it is inevitable that others will see the flaws.

Anyway, Lu Fa only uses this ability as a skill to clear out minions. It's not very effective against opponents of the same level, but it's just right for dealing with some mobs.

"How is Aido's injury? When will he recover?"

"The medical staff told me that with his current injuries, he would need to stay in bed for at least a month. However, I have already contacted a healing-type Soul Saint to treat him."

"He should regain most of his mobility within three days, and be fully recovered within a week," Dai Yueyan said slowly after a moment's thought.

"Okay." Long Yue nodded. "I believe that after what happened with Lan Tang, you should understand that this group of people from Douluo Continent should not be underestimated."

"In the following matches, if anyone loses due to underestimating their opponent, then don't blame me for being ruthless and disqualifying them from being the king of Monster Academy." Long Yue's voice was deep, but full of authority.

"Yes." Upon hearing Long Yue's words, the other members of Monster Academy immediately responded solemnly.

……

As Lufa walked into the player tunnel, the noise outside was already deafening, even in the waiting area.

When he walked into the waiting area, all the players waiting for their matches looked at him as if he were a monster.

Lu Fa didn't say much. After reuniting with the members of the Seven Stars of Glory, he quickly left the waiting area and returned to the hotel.

This is the territory of the Star Luo Empire. Our victory over the Monster Academy is a significant blow to them. Who knows, some of them might lose their minds because of it.

After the second round of competition, in the individual competition, all eight members of their Shining Seven Stars team advanced.

The entire Star Luo City was in an uproar. Hua Lantang, ranked fourth among the eight Heavenly Kings of Monster Academy, had actually been defeated, and even while using his battle armor, he was easily defeated by his opponent, who hadn't even used his martial soul.

This is simply unbelievable. This is also the biggest upset of this competition.

Compared to this, Tang Wulin's victory over Su Mu has to take a backseat, since Su Mu didn't use any battle armor.

In no time, Lu Fa's fame soared, and soon, information about him began to spread throughout Star Luo City, and even throughout the entire Star Luo Continent.

Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, Shrek Academy!

These two names appear in people's sight and hearing.

This was the first public clash, and Monster Academy lost to both Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy and Shrek Academy.

Moreover, both academies are from Douluo Continent, and the students of both academies defeated the Heavenly King of Monster Academy.

Does this mean that their Star Luo Continent is truly far inferior to Douluo Continent, to the point that they can't even defeat the opposing students?

The opponent cheated! It was Wolf King's old illness that relapsed, and that Lu Fa took advantage of the situation!

And then there's Tang Wulin. He was only able to defeat Su Mu by using tricks to lure him into a sneak attack. Otherwise, he couldn't have defeated Su Mu, even if Su Mu wasn't using his battle armor.

Many irrational voices followed, including insults and curses. At one point, some people even besieged the Xingluo Royal Hotel, but the authorities used military force to forcibly drive them away.

However, there were also calm individuals who conducted detailed analyses and studies of this battle.

"Hello everyone, I'm Fang'er. I've been a commentator for the All-Continent Youth Soul Master Competition for three years now. The two matches that took place not long ago caused quite a stir."

First, I hope everyone can calm down and focus on this truly spectacular match with a peaceful mind. At the same time, I'd like to offer my personal analysis of the game.

Fang'er is a great beauty and holds a pivotal position in the Soul Master world of the Star Luo Continent. This is not because of her own strength; on the contrary, Fang'er is not a Soul Master herself.

When her martial soul awakened, she had no innate soul power. She wasn't even a soul master.

However, she loved the profession of Soul Master more than anyone else. Although she was unable to become a Soul Master herself, she devoted all her energy to the research of Soul Masters.

Over the course of more than a decade, he has independently studied all the courses for Soul Masters, from beginner to advanced levels, and possesses a profound understanding of Soul Masters, Battle Armor, and Mechs. He has written numerous papers in the past, earning unanimous praise from the Soul Master community.

At the same time, because she was a great beauty with sharp words that hit the nail on the head, she became famous throughout the country after a period of commentating on Soul Master competitions, and became a well-known commentator in the Soul Master world of the Star Luo Empire.

After that, at the age of sixteen, she participated in the commentary work of the All-Continent Youth Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition for the first time, and achieved great success, making her famous.

At 22 years old, this is her third time commentating on the All-Continent Youth Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament.

Whether among ordinary people or Soul Masters, she is a goddess-like figure. Fang'er's statement on public media immediately attracted a lot of attention.

Fang'er's figure appeared on the soul guidance screens.

She was dressed in white, looking capable and efficient. Her hair was neatly combed, and although her fair face was somewhat thin, her large eyes were bright and piercing. When she smiled slightly, two dimples would appear on her cheeks, making her exceptionally charming.

As the rioters and the emotionally charged crowd watched the screen, their attention was drawn to it.

"I think everyone is very eager to know why Su Mu from Monster Academy and Hua Lantang lost this match. How much of it was due to chance and how much was due to inevitable factors?"

Now, I will personally analyze this match for everyone.

When the topic of Soul Masters came up, Fang'er's expression became serious. She always believed that commentating on Soul Master competitions was a sacred thing and her most important career.

"First up is contestant Tang Wulin..."

As Fang'er explained, the people of Star Luo Continent began to listen attentively to her analysis. It must be said that Fang'er was indeed very knowledgeable; even though she had very little information about Tang Wulin, she still managed to objectively analyze his abilities.

"Now, it's Hua Lantang's and Lu Fa's turn."

Upon hearing Fang'er's words, even Tang Wulin and his companions in the hotel began to watch the soul guide screen intently. Even they had to admit that Fang'er's explanation and analysis were indeed insightful.

If she can roughly analyze Tang Wulin's abilities and strengths with so little information, then what insights does she have about that Lu Fa?

"So first, let me introduce the two contestants in detail. Hua Lantang, nineteen years and eight months old, is an inner court student of Monster Academy, one of the eight Heavenly Kings of Monster Academy, nicknamed Wolf King, and his martial soul is Dragon Wolf."

He possesses the innate bloodline of the Dragon Wolf and is a level 54 Power Attack-type Soul Master. Thanks to the formidable power of his Dragon Wolf Martial Soul, few among his peers can rival him.

"Lu Fa comes from the Douluo Continent delegation and was born in the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. His soul power is unknown, but it is at least level 40. His martial soul is unknown, but his blood and qi are extremely strong, and he is very likely to be a power-attack type soul master."

Fang'er paused here, "At the same time, I just received some accurate information about the Lu Fa player, and I'd like to share it with you all here."

"Lu Fa, fifteen years old, exact age unknown, is hailed as the number one genius in the Soul Master world of Douluo Continent."

These words caused an uproar among the Star Luo Empire citizens watching on the screen.

Fifteen years old! He's only fifteen! A fifteen-year-old boy actually defeated Hua Lantang. However, people soon noticed another phrase: the number one genius of the Soul Master world in Douluo Continent!

Fang'er's voice continued, "I don't know much about the details of this contestant, but I do have detailed information about his breakout match."

"Lu Fa's claim to fame came when he was fourteen years old, when he single-handedly defeated seven One-Word Battle Armor Masters. Moreover, those seven One-Word Battle Armor Masters were all from Shrek Academy."

What!

The people of Star Luo Continent were stunned. A fourteen-year-old could defeat seven One-Word Battle Armor Masters! Are you kidding us?!

"This is detailed intelligence from Douluo Continent. It can be said that this intelligence is almost common knowledge there. I guarantee in my own name that this intelligence is absolutely true." Fang'er's confident voice rang out.

Hearing that Fang'er dared to vouch for him in her own name, even though it seemed like a fantasy, the people of Xingluo couldn't help but believe her. After all, Fang'er had a very high reputation among Xingluo soul masters.

Unexpectedly, Fang'er continued with something truly shocking:

"At the same time, also at the age of fourteen, Lu Fa completed his Soul Forging in front of the entire Soul Master world of Douluo Continent, officially becoming a Saint Craftsman! He is also known as the youngest Saint Craftsman in history!"

Even Fang'er's own voice trembled slightly as she spoke.

It was precisely because of her profound understanding of the Soul Master world that she understood just how incredible it was that Lu Fa was able to do all these things!

Defeating seven One-Word Battle Armor Masters and becoming a Saint Craftsman is nothing special. However, when you put all that into a fourteen-year-old boy, the problem becomes much bigger.

She had never even considered such a thing, let alone heard about it.

If it weren't for the fact that this information was given to her by the Star Luo Empire's official officials, Fang'er would have at most treated it as a joke.
