Douluo Continent: Lin Dong transmigrates into Huo Yuhao

Chapter 69 Xuanzi: This is not my fault

In just a few seconds, all three of his invincible shields were used up, and his soul power was also reduced by nearly 80% under that attack.

Seeing that his younger brother was alright, Chen Fei gave Lin Dong a grateful look. Before going on stage, Lin Dong had reminded him that close-combat soul masters needed an invincible shield even more, and he didn't expect that his gamble would actually pay off.

Tang Xiaolei and Blood Wolf exchanged a glance and chose to concede without hesitation. He had exhausted his soul power, and Blood Wolf was being suppressed by Chen An.

If they conserve their strength, the academy might still be able to advance as the second-place team in their group. However, if they continue and get injured, it would be a huge loss.

"The first match, a two-on-two battle, ends in victory for the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy!"

As the referee's voice rang out, the opposing team sent out Ye Wuqing and Yu Mengdi, while the Sun and Moon team sent out Li Yan and Lin Xi.

As expected, after the two exhausted their invincible shields, the battle ended with Li Yan and Lin Xi suffering only minor injuries.

In the following three-on-three match, with Soul Emperor Ma Rulong in the lead, Sun and Moon naturally won the game without any problem.

"Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy wins this round-robin tournament!"

After the match, Lin Xi looked at the charred marks on his chest and couldn't help but smile bitterly, "This level 58 Soul King really has some tricks up his sleeve. It's a pity we can't win this round-robin tournament with a perfect record."

"Don't even mention a perfect victory. Without Lin Dong, we'd be lucky if none of us got injured. Our next match is also against a full lineup of Soul Kings. If it's another 2-2-3 lineup, we'll probably lose another match."

Hearing Ma Rulong's words, Lin Dong nodded in agreement:

"The captain is right. You rely too much on the huge advantage of soul tools in team battles. Chen An and Chen Fei are brothers and have a relatively good teamwork, but you and Li Yan don't have the same teamwork as your opponents. Otherwise, you shouldn't have gotten injured."

Lin Xi scratched her head awkwardly and chuckled sheepishly:

"Our academy has always been second place. With you joining us this year, we've been training seven-on-seven, aiming for the championship. We never thought we'd be stopped by our opponents in the round-robin tournament. We were careless."

Ma Rulong glared at him irritably: "Right now, only Xiao Xiafeng, Mika, and I on our team still have an invincible shield. We've only played two matches in the round-robin tournament. Let's see if you guys dare to be arrogant later!"

Seeing that he was angry, Lin Xi didn't dare to talk back and tried to comfort him with a laugh:

"Hehe, don't be angry, Captain. As long as we don't draw a 3v3, our team battle will be fine. The teams behind us are all mediocre, so there's no need to worry about them."

Li Yan added from the side, "That's right, Captain. As long as we win that tough battle tomorrow, the teams behind us are all equipped with Soul Kings and Soul Masters. They definitely won't be a match for us. Besides, they can't possibly draw 223 for us again tomorrow, can they?"

Lin Dong interrupted, saying, "There are still some signs of manipulation in this match. Nobody can say for sure, so it's best to be cautious."

Everyone nodded in agreement. After returning to their rooms to rest, Lin Dong sat on his bed, reflecting on the match that day. He felt that the referee's intervention to block Ye Wuqing's attack was a little too late.

Two days passed in a flash. In the rest area, the team members from Xingluo City Advanced Academy displayed an air of patriotism, ready to sacrifice themselves for their country. The team leader, a man with a square face, looked at the middle-aged teacher and said in a deep voice:

"Teacher, everything we do is for the country, so please don't worry."

"Sigh, you've been sensible since you were little. This mission is so dangerous; if anything were to happen to you, how would I face your father?"

Looking at the old man with a worried expression, a fanatical glint appeared in the young man's eyes, and a look of resignation appeared on his face: "This is His Majesty's decree, and we will obey it unconditionally."

The old man sighed sadly and fell silent. Xu Jiawei, on the city wall, glanced casually at the young man, a bitter feeling welling up inside him.

Damn Shrek Academy! The young geniuses of Star Luo are actually going to such lengths for your so-called glory.

That day, Xuanzi personally instructed him that this plan could only be carried out by the second or first strongest team in Xingluo, otherwise it would definitely not achieve the expected results.

Since Xu Jiujiu was in the Star Luo Royal Academy's team, this task could only be entrusted to the many students of Star Luo City Advanced Academy.

Thinking of Xuanzi's insane plan, Xu Jiawei was almost driven to madness with anger and couldn't help but lightly tap the city wall.

Xuanzi glanced at Xu Jiawei's unpleasant expression on the stage, a slight twitch appearing at the corner of his mouth, and thought helplessly to himself:

Jiawei, this is not my fault. You also came from the academy, so you should know how important Shrek's honor is. This time, we can only ask those young people to make do.

The students from Xingluo who were about to go on stage exchanged glances, a resolute look appearing in their eyes, while the students from Riyue were still discussing the draw.

"Hey, their luck isn't that bad. It's a team battle, so this time it'll be much easier. Looks like they know that if they try to cheat too much, they'll be criticized."

Seeing Lin Xi's happy expression, Ma Rulong frowned and said:

"Don't let your guard down. The opponent also has a full Soul King lineup. Even in a team battle, they won't be easy to deal with."

Lin Dong also chimed in, "That's right, don't be careless. As for the Invincible Shield, we only have three left now. Give one to Xiao Xiafeng, and the remaining two to Chen An and Senior Li Yan."

Lin Xi nodded, handed her invincible shield to Li Yan, and smiled, "Yeah, no problem, everyone, good luck!"

As everyone stepped onto the field, both sides introduced themselves, and then the Sun and Moon teams formed a 2-2-3 formation.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

Ma Rulong and Lin Xi were in front, Li Yan and Xiao Xiafeng were at the back, and the Chen brothers, Chen An and Chen Fei, stood on the left and right sides around Mika.

As they formed their formation, the students from Xingluo City Advanced Academy surrounded the square-faced boy, with three people standing on each side. Suddenly, a black box appeared on each of the six of them.

Ma Rulong's expression changed, and he shouted, "Mika, Chen Fei, Li Yan, fire!"

At the same time, dozens of soul-guided cannons emerged from his own body, and countless cannonballs blasted towards the Star Luo group. When the smoke cleared, the Sun and Moon group looked on in horror.

The students from Xingluo, their bodies shimmering with invincible protective shields, flew rapidly toward them. The student in the lead was covered in downy hair, and his hands had become long and large.

It looked like a giant gibbon, with a resolute glint in its scarlet eyes. It gripped the fence on the side of the sun and moon with both hands, and flew to the front of the group like a spring, its large hands enveloping everyone in its center.

Those students who suddenly approached the Sun and Moon Clan were naturally connected to his mysterious martial spirit. Except for a yellow flash that flew out from the sky, everyone on the field was enveloped in his enormous hands.

The spectators on the sidelines watched this scene in bewilderment, while some couldn't help but show off their sense of humor:

"What are Xingluo City Advanced Academy students trying to do? Are they huddled together because they're cold?"
