Douluo Continent II: The Dragon Breaks the Nine Heavens

Chapter 91 Dai Huabin's Blood Pressure Soars

"I can't reach it!" Zheng Xiaolong shook his head blankly.

This question was still a bit too much for a newbie like him who wasn't even a Great Soul Master. His level of understanding hadn't been updated to the point where he could see through Cao Jinxuan's condition.

Xiao Xiao, standing to the side, was much the same; the innocent naiveté on her little face was undeniable.

At this moment, Lin Yun fell into deep thought.

The next second, Lin Yun stopped thinking.

It's obvious even to a fool that this guy used Time Freeze on him and Qing'er, which caused a backlash that ruined him. It's just that no one knows why the backlash was so strong.

However, it's not surprising. Lin Yun gained some benefits from this enlightenment. As a mere Great Soul Master, he could achieve this level. Even if he drained Cao Jinxuan dry, Lin Yun wouldn't be surprised at all.

It's a miracle that he's still alive.

Yan Shaozhe, who was watching from the shadows, could no longer remain calm. He appeared in front of Cao Jinxuan in a flash, put his hand on Cao Jinxuan's shoulder, and injected gentle, luminous soul power into his body to examine his condition.

Zhou Sichen anxiously wiped the blood off Cao Jinxuan's face, awaiting Yan Shaozhe's "verdict".

After a while, Yan Shaozhe opened his eyes, his brows furrowed and his expression very serious.

"Teacher, how is Cao Jinxuan?" Zhou Sichen asked hurriedly.

He didn't know who Yan Shaozhe was, but seeing Yan Shaozhe's elusive appearances, he understood that this was definitely a highly skilled teacher at Shrek Academy, so asking him would be the right thing to do.

"His soul skill backfired, and the consequences were extremely severe, causing his martial soul to shatter. It will probably take a long time to recover," Yan Shaozhe said in a deep voice.

"My martial spirit is shattered...?" Zhou Sichen murmured absentmindedly, overwhelmed by immense guilt that seemed to descend into darkness.

If it weren't for his words, Cao Jinxuan probably wouldn't have unleashed his soul skill on Lin Yun and Qing'er, causing him to suffer a backlash, his martial soul to shatter, and him to be severely injured.

After all, Lin Yun really couldn't be blamed for this. Zhou Sichen even had a strange sense of being scammed.

"Should the match continue?" Yan Shaozhe asked Zhou Sichen and Long Xiangyue.

"No, teacher, we admit defeat." Zhou Sichen shook his head with a bitter expression.

Should we still fight?

Let's hit a hammer!

Before the enemy even made a move, one of their own had already been crippled. Moreover, looking at the scorpion radiating a terrifying chill, Zhou Sichen and his men had lost all will to fight.

"Alright, I'll take this student with me. The academy will invite a high-level healing-type Soul Master to treat him." Yan Shaozhe nodded and then waved his hand, taking the unconscious Cao Jinxuan into the air.

The quarterfinals ended in such a bizarre way.

Lin Yun's team became the first team to advance to the semifinals.

After the match, Lin Yun hurriedly said goodbye to Xiao Xiao and Zheng Xiaolong, returned to his dormitory, sat cross-legged on his bed, and began to comprehend the strange fluctuations he had felt on the field.

Before today, Lin Yun's understanding of the Golden Dragon King was limited to his unparalleled physical body and indestructible destructive power. However, after being controlled by Cao Jinxuan, he discovered that the Golden Dragon King seemed to be able to manipulate time as well.

However, this feeling was not real, and coupled with the fact that the Golden Dragon King bloodline within him had not been fully unleashed, his concept of time-related abilities became even more vague.

What Lin Yun needs to do is to experience the power of time as much as possible before this hazy feeling dissipates.

The sooner he comes into contact with the power of time, the better. Perhaps he will be able to control the power of time in the future, be able to traverse space and travel through time, and become the Dragon God of Time and Space.

From that day forward, Lin Yun had embarked on a path entirely different from that of the Golden Dragon King. Although he was unaware of it yet, this had laid the foundation for his future. It also meant that if he continued down this path, his achievements were destined to surpass those of the Golden Dragon King.

The future is expected.

On the other hand, during the draw for the quarterfinals, it's unclear whether it was due to someone casting a spell, but Huo Yuhao's team didn't draw a Soul Master team. Instead, they drew a team composed of three Great Soul Masters.

Just grab the bargains.

This led to two Soul Master teams clashing directly, with Dai Huabin and Xie Huanyue engaging in a fierce battle of attack against the White Tiger and defense against the Pipi Elephant.

As expected, Huo Yuhao won. Princess Tang carried him to victory single-handedly, and Huo Yuhao was having a great time being carried along on the goose's leg.

On the other hand, let's look at Dai Huabin and Xie Huanyue's side.

It's hard to say. At the Soul Master level, Dai Huabin can't really utilize the advantages of the White Tiger Martial Soul. Since Dai Mubai, the White Tiger lineage's soul skill combinations have been White Tiger Protective Barrier, White Tiger Blazing Light Wave, and White Tiger Vajra Transformation. Before reaching the fourth ring, they basically don't have any decisive killing moves and can only engage in close-range melee combat.

Coincidentally, Xie Huanyue is also a melee fighter.

In the original work, Xie Huanyue is described as a "meatball".

When he released his soul skill, he bounced up from the ground and fell back down. The oppressive feeling was no less than that of a pig falling from the sky. His powerful defense also allowed him to ignore Dai Huabin's tiger claws. As long as he was not hit in vulnerable areas such as his eyes, Xie Huanyue was almost beating Dai Huabin up.

The White Tiger Duke's small coin was immediately turned red and warm, what a disgrace!

It has always been the case that offensive types suppress defensive types. How can a defensive type ever turn the tables and completely dominate an offensive type?

Moreover, he is the son of the Duke of White Tiger. How could Dai Huabin tolerate such an injustice?

I absolutely can't stand it!

So the martial soul fusion skill that he had been keeping hidden and preparing to deal with Lin Yun was directly used by Dai Huabin. His blood pressure soared and he lost the lychee. A huge Netherworld White Tiger appeared on the arena.

When he finally unleashed the Netherworld White Tiger, Dai Huabin's frustration was unimaginable.

Compared to a momentary battle of egos, the ultimate goal should be to become the new champion. However, he has already used the Netherworld White Tiger, and his Martial Soul Fusion Skill still has a cooldown period, so he definitely can't use it again in the finals.

At this moment, Dai Huabin even wanted to kill Xie Huanyue. The Netherworld White Tiger treated this unfortunate kid like a soccer ball, kicking him around on the stage.

You know what, the martial soul fusion skill formed by the fusion of two soul masters can even beat the national football team in soccer.

The aesthetics are off the charts.

However, considering that Dai Huabin and his teammates have eaten far more precious foods than sea cucumbers since childhood, it's understandable that their skills are better than the national football team. It's just that they haven't been eating well enough.

Ultimately, the four teams that made it to the finals were determined.

Class 8, freshmen, Lin Yun's team.

Class 8, Freshmen, Ning Tian Team.

Class 4 of Freshmen, Wang Dong's Team.

Class 4 of Freshmen, Dai Huabin's Team.

The semi-finals are about to begin, and Lin Yun has also awakened from his reverie.
