Douluo Continent: Lin Dong transmigrates into Huo Yuhao

Chapter 73, the same script

After listening for a long time, he raised his chin with a hint of pride:

"Don't worry, bro. With their three main players unable to play, let's arrange for other teams to play first and see how strong their qualifying teams are. Maybe we can pull off today's plan again?"

Xu Jiawei frowned and asked, "You mean, you want to arrange for our team, ranked third in Xingluo, to be used as human bombs again?"

After Xu Jiujiu nodded, Xu Jiawei shook his head and whispered:

"Their team doesn't have such a special martial soul, and the other side will definitely be on guard. Besides, are we really going to sacrifice all the younger generation except for you guys for Shrek Academy?"

"Brother, now that we've decided to stand on the same side as Shrek Academy, we shouldn't hold back anymore. Someone has to sacrifice. If it's for the country, it's no different for you and me."

Seeing the determination in her eyes, Xu Jiawei nodded and sighed:

"Sigh, you're right. Then you should go and talk to Huang Jinxu. By the way, I have a feeling that Riyue won't let this go so easily, so make sure he doesn't show his bias too obviously."

Watching the figure slowly depart, Xu Jiawei's eyes flashed with helplessness as he murmured:

"With insufficient national strength, we are indeed hampered at every turn. Elder Xuan, once I board the Shrek Academy ship, it won't be so easy for me to get off."

Xingluo Hotel.

Jing Hongchen stood solemnly at the door, protecting Lin Dong as he refined the Ice Jade Scorpion's left arm bone.

The moment the soul bone entered Lin Dong's hand, the Ice Ancestral Symbol between Lin Dong's brows suddenly emitted a faint but powerful aura, as if it were taunting it.

The Ice Jade Scorpion's left arm bone instantly came to life, trembling and transforming into a beam of white light that burrowed into Lin Dong's left arm.

An astonishing chill entered his body, causing Lin Dong to shudder violently. A burst of brilliant azure light erupted from his body, and the Ice Emperor also released a wisp of her own power to help Lin Dong complete the fusion.

As time passed and he sensed the steadily increasing aura in the room, Jing Hongchen's lips curled into a faint smile:

"This little guy really doesn't disappoint. Luckily, Xiao Meng didn't absorb that amazing chill just now, otherwise she would have been in a lot of trouble."

As he marveled at Lin Dong's monstrous talent, a creaking sound rang out, and Lin Dong smiled kindly:

"Thank you for your hard work, Dean. You have protected me many times. Please get some rest."

Jing Hongchen smiled and waved his hand: "No need to be polite. Judging from your aura, you seem to have improved. Will you tell me about the soul skill of this soul bone?"

Seeing his curious gaze, Lin Dong replied calmly:

"There has been some decent improvement. This soul skill is quite compatible with me. It's called Ice Explosion Technique, and it's a kind of soul skill similar to the Corpse Explosion Technique of the evil soul master. I'll have to spend some time studying it in detail."

Upon hearing his explanation, Jing Hongchen's eyes lit up, and he smiled excitedly:

"Hahaha, great! What a brilliant Ice Blast spell! This money was definitely well spent!"

He still vividly remembers the strange skill of that evil soul master from that day. Lin Dong having this skill must be a great thing!

Lin Dong coughed lightly: "Dean, please get some rest. I won't disturb you any longer."

Seeing him nod with a smile, Lin Dong slowly closed the door and asked the Ice Emperor in his spiritual sea:

"Hyotei, does this skill require the opponent to be completely frozen before it can explode?"

"Yes, that's right. This soul skill is quite powerful. I don't even have a soul skill as overpowered as this."

Hearing Hyotei's answer, Lin Dong asked with some doubt:

"Can I just detonate the ice directly?"

Hyotei rolled her eyes at him, somewhat speechless.

"It's possible, but unnecessary. Directly detonating ice is not cost-effective and has little power. The greatest value of this soul skill is that you need to completely freeze an object, filling its interior with ice, in order to have decent power."

(Here's a patch: in the original novel, although Huo Yuhao said that ice blocks could be detonated, the power was related to his own soul power, and most of the time he would freeze people or soul beasts before detonating them.)

In the original work, one of the limitations of this Ice Explosion spell is that it requires the left arm bone to come into contact with a person. Therefore, for now, we'll set it up so that detonating the ice has very little power, not even worth the cost.

"That's true. If we could really attack by detonating ice blocks, and the opponent had enough soul power, wouldn't they be able to detonate the entire far north? It's a pity. I wanted to give this competition a surprise, but it seems I have no choice but to give up now."

Hyotei gave him a playful look and chuckled softly:

"What are you thinking? This is a top-tier soul skill among ten-thousand-year soul skills. With your current soul power, it's already difficult to activate it even twice."

Lin Dong sighed helplessly upon hearing her words:

"Sigh, it's not enough soul power again. Looks like I'll have to rely on physical combat."

Two days later.

Along with Shrek Academy, Star Luo Academy, ranked third, coincidentally encountered Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

"The first round of the Round of 16 to 8: Star Luo Royal Soul Master Academy versus Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy!"

Looking at the somewhat unfamiliar students opposite him, Lin Dong gazed at the crowd and said softly:

"Gentlemen, for the sake of my revenge plan, I will not rely on my physical strength to charge into battle. I think we can do this..."

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

Upon hearing Lin Dong's plan, everyone nodded and stepped onto the arena with smiles on their faces.

"What's going on with Sun and Moon? Why did they send three kids up here? The youngest boy is only twelve years old, isn't he?"

"Yeah, yeah, they were blown up like that in the last game, what's the point of sending three kids up here?"

"Sigh, anyway, I hope the students from Xingluo will go easy on them; after all, they're just kids in their early teens!"

The team members, led by Xingluo, had a determined look in their eyes, clearly prepared to sacrifice themselves for their country.

In the Shrek Academy rest area, Xuanzi glanced at the students of Xingluo Academy and then revealed a confident smile.

"Everyone, look closely. The two pre-selected members of Sun Moon are a brother and sister. Both of them are Soul Kings. Although the strength of the other member is currently unknown, I can say with certainty that Sun Moon's current strength is still far superior to ours."

Pay close attention to their battle later, so we can better prepare for our future encounters with them.

The Shrek Academy students immediately became alert, turning their serious expressions to the stage.

When the Star Luo team members saw the formation of the Sun Moon group, they were puzzled for a moment, and then their eyes were filled with joy.

The Sun and Moon Sect members surrounded Lin Dong in a 2-2-1-1 formation. Weren't they afraid of being blown to ashes by the Star Luo Sect students?

Before the Star Luo group could react, a yellow spirit ring lit up beneath Lin Dong's feet, and his eyes emitted a faint gray light the instant he activated his spirit skill.

Ma Rulong and Xiao Hongchen, who were directly in front, received the message and fired their soul-guided cannonballs at the Xingluo group all at once.

Everyone present looked on in astonishment. Did these guys really not learn a single lesson? This scenario is so similar to what happened a few days ago!
