Douluo: The Glory of the Peerless Angel

Chapter 114 Even if you win, I don't want to lose, Super Energy Soul-Guided Cannon (4K)

"The Angel Legion?"

"Yeah yeah!"

Yu Mengdi nodded like a chick pecking at rice. Seeing fellow countrymen, her eyes welled up with tears: "The members of the Angel Legion are all subordinate angels of the six-winged angels. Ten thousand years ago, I would have had to respectfully call you Young Master. But now it seems that the term Young Master is not so popular. I'll just call you Idol!"

Please, could you sign my idol's autograph?

Having said that, she presented a pen with both hands, her eyes sparkling with countless stars. Ling Bai couldn't refuse this small request, so he took the pen and asked:

"Where do I sign? Give me a notebook."

"This notebook isn't worthy, sign here!"

Yu Mengdi grabbed the front of her shirt and said proudly, "I'll take this shirt back and hang it up, and I'll bow to it three times every morning."

"It can't be that bad, it really can't be that bad..."

Ling Bai finally understood why celebrities in his past life were so afraid of their fanatical fans; it was truly terrifying.

Two completely different scenes unfolded on the competition stage. On one side, Wang Dong was battling the man with the dagger, their swords clashing and sparks flying, making for a truly spectacular fight. On the other side, Ling Bai and Yu Mengdi, the two descendants of angels, were enjoying a peaceful moment, the former carefully leaving two large, elegant characters on the latter's prominent chest.

In the Shrek Academy rest area, Jiang Nannan suddenly felt a chill beside her. She involuntarily shivered and turned her head, just in time to see Ning Tian, ​​who was pinching the corner of the table and whose body was shrouded in black mist.

"Junior Ning, it seems you've gone dark..."

Ning Tian smiled warmly: "How could that be? I'm not a petty person. I wouldn't get angry just because Brother Bai touched her chest with a pen."

"Wait, I don't think I mentioned Ling Bai."

"Senior, stop talking, or I'll kill you."

Meanwhile, at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, Xiao Hongchen, looking helplessly at the corrupted Meng Hongchen, said, "Little sister, calm down!"

"Brother, it's okay for us to silence them, right?"

"What???"

Ling Bai, who knew nothing about the audience, finished signing his name, handed the pen back to Yu Mengdi, and said, "Alright, let's begin."

"We can't fight a single battle."

Yu Mengdi waved her hand, staring at the signature on her chest without looking up, and calmly said, "A superior martial soul can absolutely suppress, just like how Blue Silver Grass would never dare to be presumptuous towards the Blue Silver Emperor."

"Your analogy..."

Is this appropriate?

"appropriate."

Ling Bai nodded, both amused and exasperated. He compared the angel lineage with the Blue Silver Grass lineage, explaining that the six-winged angels were the Blue Silver Emperors, ruling over the angel race, while the angels were the Blue Silver Grass, the common people, and the holy angels were the Blue Silver Kings in the middle, bridging the gap between them.

An angel challenging a six-winged angel is like Blue Silver Grass challenging Blue Silver Emperor. When the two face off, one thing is very likely to happen: Ling Baihu's body trembles, the six-winged angel's domineering aura is revealed, and Yu Mengdi kneels down and begs for mercy in three seconds.

Yu Mengdi's move was very wise. Zheng Tian Academy's original plan was for each of the three Soul Kings to lead a team. As long as Ye Wuqing avoided Ling Bai, Zheng Tian Academy would have the upper hand. If Yu Mengdi or Tang Xiaolei, the third Soul King of Zheng Tian, ​​encountered Ling Bai, they could choose to admit defeat to avoid suffering physical pain for nothing.

"Once your Goddess of Light Butterfly and Yang Yifan have settled their score, I will surrender on behalf of Zheng Tian," Yu Mengdi said proactively.

"OK."

Ling Bai agreed, which gave Wang Yan more time to think carefully about which game Ye Wuqing would appear in.

Yu Mengdi blinked curiously and asked, "By the way, idol, did you join Shrek Academy?"

"No, I'm just going to school."

"Do you have powerful backers behind you?"

Why are you asking this?

"I'll break through to Soul Emperor in two or three years and then graduate from Zheng Tian. Idol, I'm going to join you!"

Yu Mengdi chuckled. Having just sensed the divine aura of the six-winged angel, every cell in her body had entered a state of extreme excitement.

Cultivating alongside a six-winged angel would allow an angel to grow at least three times faster and give her the chance to advance to a holy angel. Naturally, she wanted to cling to Ling Bai's coattails.

"I am at the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, and you are welcome to come anytime."

Angels are rare and top-tier martial souls. In terms of development potential, Yu Mengdi is no less than Ye Wuqing, the Golden Leaf Soul King whom Elder Xuan favors. Ling Bai has no reason to refuse her.

"Bang—"

After a loud bang, the third soul skill of the Goddess of Light Butterfly, Butterfly God Slash, was unleashed, shattering the defense of the dagger-wielding man, Yang Yifan. Wang Dong achieved victory against the level 42 Soul Master.

"As expected of Shrek Academy, fighting against opponents of higher levels is commonplace for them."

Yu Mengdi exclaimed in admiration, then immediately changed the subject: "But idol, if I'm not mistaken, something must have happened to Shrek Academy."

"How so?" Ling Bai asked with a smile.

"For ten thousand years, Shrek Academy has consistently fielded fourteen participants—one regular team and one reserve team. When has it ever registered eleven?"

Yu Mengdi calmly analyzed: "Before today, the general consensus among the academy was that Shrek Academy was too confident, believing that they could easily win the championship by selecting four main players and seven substitutes."

Facing a team like ours, Zheng Tian, ​​which was among the top eight in the previous tournament, Shrek Academy is still using an eight-man rotation, which is clearly not right. I personally dare to speculate that the three main players aren't unwilling to play, but rather are unable to play for some reason.

She backed away from Ling Bai, raised her small fist in a boxing stance: "I lost, but Zheng Tian Academy didn't lose. Since our plan to replace the inferior horse with the superior horse in the first round was successful, Zheng Tian Academy is bound to break Shrek Academy's undefeated record."

Idol, you are very strong, the strongest individual fighter in this competition. But the 2-2-3 strategy is designed to limit monsters like you, so that you can't turn the tide of the battle on your own. The outcome of Shrek vs. Zheng Tian depends on our teammates.

In the first match, Zheng Tian Academy concedes defeat!

Yu Mengdi dragged Yang Yifan off the competition stage, and Wang Dong strode confidently to Ling Bai like a victorious general.

Ling Bai smiled helplessly at Wang Dong's swaggering appearance. "You're only here to make up the numbers. You're supposed to be the God King's daughter, yet you can't even see this much. You're like a silly deer all day long."

Oh well, I'll laugh when I win and cry when I lose. It's good to be carefree.

The two returned to Shrek's rest area and immediately noticed that the other six people and Wang Yan had such serious expressions that they were almost dripping with water.

"Should we gamble? Sending Beibei and Xu Sanshi to fight it all in one battle, but what if the two Soul Kings on the other side come out at the same time? The third match is two Soul Masters and one Soul Venerable against three Soul Masters of Zheng Tian... It's not stable, it's not stable!"

Even if we take a step back, with Golden Leaf Soul King paired with a powerful Soul Master, it would be extremely difficult for Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi to defeat them...

Wang Yan kept talking to himself. His white shirt was soaked with sweat, and the sweat gathered into droplets that rolled down his cheeks, showing how much psychological pressure he was under at the moment.

The six of them formed a circle, waiting for Wang Yan's final decision. Wang Dong decisively joined them, while Ling Bai half-reclined on the soft sofa prepared by the Star Luo Royal Family for the contestants. He picked a juicy blue fruit and took a bite, the juice splashing everywhere.

Ling Bai had a clear conscience after winning the first match, and since he couldn't play in the remaining matches, he chose not to participate in other decisions.

Actually, it doesn't matter if Shrek loses a round of the round-robin; at worst, they can advance to the top 16 as the second-place team in their group. It's just that the reserve teams, such as Beibei, are unwilling to give up Shrek's glory of never having been defeated in thousands of years.

"He Caitou and Jiang Nannan will fight in the second match. Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, and Ning Tian will be in charge of the third decisive match," Wang Yan said in a deep voice. "I bet Zheng Tian Academy will send Ye Wuqing to ensure a victory in the second round. You two do your best and make sure you don't get injured."

This time, the Shrek Academy became the team that used the "Tian Ji Horse Racing" strategy. The inferior horse, He Caitou Jiang Nannan, was replaced by the superior horse, Ye Wuqing. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda was used to amplify Bei Bei's awakening of the Bright Holy Dragon bloodline and Xu Sanshi's Xuanwu burst, in order to fight against Tang Xiaolei, the third Soul King of Zheng Tian.

"Teacher Wang, I have a small question..."

Xu Sanshi said weakly, "My Xuanwu isn't as stable as Beibei's Holy Light Dragon..."

"What do you mean?" Wang Yan was confused.

"We need a trigger."

"Stop keeping me in suspense, just tell me!" Wang Yan said angrily, at this crucial moment Xu Sanshi was up to his old tricks.

Xu Sanshi closed his eyes and shouted, "Nannan must be by my side!"

"..."

Everyone burst into laughter. Why didn't you say something so important sooner!

Jiang Nannan's face darkened, wishing she could give this guy a full-service massage and bone-setting massage.

Wang Yan sighed, "Beibei, Xu Sanshi, Jiang Nannan, play the last round. He Caitou and Ning Tian, ​​you two..."

The words abruptly stopped. He Caitou and Jiang Nannan, two Soul Masters, were still a match for each other, but now that Jiang Nannan had been replaced by Ning Tian, ​​no one thought they would win. They were just pawns in this game.

"Please welcome the players from both sides for the second match to the stage!"

The referee shouted loudly.

The two rose and entered the arena. Suddenly, a voice reached Ning Tian's ears:

"Xiao Tian, ​​come back if you encounter Ye Wuqing. Shrek Glory doesn't need us to fight to the death. Let the third game decide the outcome."

Ling Bai also knows the trick of transmitting sound secretly.

Ning Tian paused for a moment, his rosy lips moving a few times, his voice clear and firm as he spoke to Ling Bai:

"I never cared about Shrek's eternal glory, but I care very, very, very much about whether I can keep up with you."

Even if you win, I will never admit defeat.

Ning Tian proudly stepped onto the competition stage, leaving Ling Bai with a dazzling silhouette.

Ling Bai was slightly taken aback, then smiled with relief. The weak girl would not remain weak forever; she would eventually grow into an independent and strong woman through wisdom and diligence.

Ning Tian has found her own path, and regardless of winning or losing, right or wrong, Ling Bai is genuinely happy for her.

On the Zhengtian Academy side, two male students slowly stepped onto the competition stage. The one in the lead was none other than Ye Wuqing, the level 58 Golden Leaf Soul King.

The Shrek team's eyes lit up. Sure enough, he appeared in the second round, and the Tian Ji horse racing strategy was a great victory!

"Very good!"

Wang Yan clenched his fist tightly. The third Soul King, Tang Xiaolei, had the Purple Flower Bow as his martial soul. The three Soul Kings of Zhengtian were ranked last, and they had not even been able to absorb the ten-thousand-year soul ring with their fifth soul skill. The three Soul Masters, Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, and Jiang Nannan, had a great chance of winning if they joined forces!

The teachers of Zhengtian Academy sighed with regret. They thought Shrek Academy would be greedy and send two of its top generals to end the battle, but the other side had turned around and played tricks. The advantage established in the first round was immediately lost in the second round.

Shrek Academy, Zheng Tian Academy, teachers from various academies, team members, and spectators—everyone believed that Zheng Tian Academy had won the second round. Only Ning Tian on the field didn't believe it. She whispered:

"Senior, are you going to admit defeat?"

"I don't want to admit defeat."

He Caitou gritted his teeth. He had been taken in by Fan Yu and brought to Shrek Academy since he was a child. He was willing to give everything for Shrek. His fighting spirit was no less than that of Bei Bei and the others!

Ning Tian and He Caitou exchanged a glance, and in that glance, they saw a strong, unyielding desire deep in each other's eyes.

"I remember vividly the feeling of being haunted by evil spirits after losing a game a year ago. That day I vowed never to accept another defeat in my life."

Ning Tian seemed to possess a resolute determination that soared to the heavens, causing Ling He Caitou to turn his head in surprise.

"Senior Brother, do you have a soul tool powerful enough to decide the outcome with a single blow?"

He Caitou nodded. At this moment, a wildness that he usually couldn't see was awakened by his burning fighting spirit. His eyes narrowed slightly, and a cold light flashed in them:

"Yes, it needs to build up its strength."

"I'll buy you some time."

The four stood facing each other. Ye Wuqing's expression was extremely cold. In his view, this battle between a Soul King and a Soul Master versus a Level 4 Soul Master and a Support-type Soul Venerable was meaningless. The Six-Winged Angel Ling Bai and the White Tiger Dai Yueheng, whom he had fought in the previous competition, were the real opponents.

"The match begins!"

After the referee's announcement, they did not leave, remaining ready to rescue Ning Tian and Cai Tou at any time.

The battle had just begun when He Caitou took a big step forward and crouched down. A giant cannon barrel, two meters long, appeared on his right shoulder. It looked very similar to a large fixed-mount soul-guided cannon. The barrel was dark and bottomless, as if it could devour life.

"Holy crap, a super-energy-concentrating soul-guided cannon!"

The Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy instantly recognized the soul tool. Captain Ma Rulong was almost speechless with surprise, and the Hongchen siblings also widened their eyes. Meng Hongchen even temporarily forgot to admire Ling Bai.

Elder Ma exclaimed in shock, "The Super-Energy Concentrating Soul Guidance Cannon is a lethal soul tool used in large-scale warfare. Even a seventh-ring Soul Saint would be badly injured by a single hit from it. I never imagined that a mere fourth-level Soul Guidance Master could use it!"

With four invigorating cigars dangling from his mouth, He Caitou took a deep breath, and half of the cigars burned down instantly. He activated his Super Energy Soul Guidance Cannon, its muzzle emitting a bright white light. The intense sense of threat it exuded made Ye Wuqing and the other person take this Level 4 Soul Master seriously.

"Seven treasures transform into crystal!"

A dazzling array of seven colors shone as the three soul skills of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda were infused into He Caitou's robust body, reducing the charging time of the Soul Guidance Cannon.

"Blood Wolf, stop him together!"

Ye Wuqing said coldly, and five soul rings, yellow, purple, and black, rose up. The long, narrow golden leaf floated quietly in mid-air. He raised his right hand and steadily pinched the golden leaf between his index and middle fingers.

The second contestant from Zheng Tian was named Blood Wolf. He was slightly shorter than Ye Wuqing, but much more robust, with broad shoulders and thick arms, a typical close-combat type Soul Master.

With a roar, the Blood Wolf charged forward at lightning speed. As it charged, its Martial Soul, the Silver Gray Wolf, possessed it, causing its fur to grow wildly and its muscles and bones to expand at an astonishing rate. Its hands transformed into sharp wolf claws.

As a rare plant-type powerful attack martial soul, Golden Leaf's attack method is even more special. The leaf held between his fingers was flung out by Ye Wuqing, and it pierced Ning Tian, ​​who was blocking He Caitou's way, like a flying knife.

"boom--"
