Douluo Continent: Copying Ya Li, the Carefree King of the Sun and Moon

"Little brother, you're mistaken. My skin might look a bit dark because I'm always dealing with soul tools." He Caitou scratched his bald head with a simple and honest expression.

Xu Yanli smiled, didn't say anything, snapped his fingers, and said, "Let's show off our skills to the senior students."

Chapter 47 Moon, You're Getting Old

On the field, Xiao Xiao and Tang Ling moved with lightning speed, their perfect coordination leaving their opponents no room to react.

A flash of green light appeared in Xiao Xiao's hand, and a Nine Phoenixes Arrival Flute appeared in her hand. She played the flute and instantly activated her first soul skill, Slow.

The gentle yet oppressive sound waves precisely enveloped the three people opposite, causing their bodies to suddenly become heavy and sluggish, and their movements to become extremely sluggish.

Taking advantage of the moment when Zhuge Yun was slowed down and controlled, Tang Ling followed up with the Wind and Thunder Staff. With the help of Xiao Xiao's control, the two of them struck together and knocked the unsuspecting Zhuge Yun off the field.

An unexpected turn of events occurred. Due to his high soul power, He Caitou on the other side was not controlled by the soul skill and reacted extremely quickly.

Upon seeing this, He Caitou immediately set up his self-developed Level 4 fixed-position soul-guided device, the Spike Cannon. A cold light flashed from the muzzle, and it was aimed directly at Xiao Xiao, Tang Ling, and Xu Yanli. One cannon for each of them, the soul-guided cannon attack arrived in an instant.

Xu Yanli chuckled and quickly released his martial soul, Sun, Moon and Star. The three powers appeared behind the humanoid figure, but he concealed his twelve pairs of wings, making it appear to others that this was just an ordinary humanoid martial soul.

Just as the missile was about to hit the three people, Xu Yanli moved slightly and activated his second soul skill, Apocalypse: Holy Wings Protection, without hesitation.

Hey, he did it on purpose, deliberately shattering the opponent's hopes the moment they thought they could win.

The Sun and Moon Holy Wings Barrier instantly unfolded, and a golden holy shield firmly protected the three of them in the center.

The incoming soul-guided missiles didn't even have a chance to get close; they were violently bounced back after hitting the shield, their power completely wasted.

At the same time, Xu Yanli kept moving, his figure approaching He Caitou like a ghost, but his target was not He Caitou in front of him, but Wang Dong behind He Caitou who was waiting for an opportunity to make a move.

He nimbly bypassed He Caitou, and together with Xiao Xiao and Tang Ling, they instantly formed an encirclement, trapping Wang Dong in the center.

Forced into a corner, Wang Dong had no choice but to flap her wings and take flight, but just as she took off...

Xiao Xiao's Three Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldron had already descended from the sky. Her first soul skill, Cauldron Suppression, was activated, and the heavy pressure of the cauldron instantly slammed her down to the ground.

Wang Dong, who had just landed, had no time to dodge and could only activate the first soul skill of the Goddess of Light Butterfly, Winged Guillotine, to take the hit head-on from Tang Ling's first soul skill, Wind and Thunder Strike, which made her stagger.

On the other side, Xu Yanli's eyes narrowed as he prepared to activate his third soul skill, Yangyan Divine Judgment.

A golden longsword radiating a divine aura quietly materialized in his hand. He deliberately concealed the angelic aura within him, hiding all his pressure, so no one else in the arena noticed anything unusual.

Just as Xu Yanli was about to launch an attack, the referee stepped forward in time and took Wang Dong, who had been suppressed by the pressure and instantly lost his ability to fight, away from the arena.

At this point, only Xu Yanli, Xiao Xiao, Tang Ling, and He Caitou remained on the field.

Xu Yanli slightly raised his hand, signaling Xiao Xiao and Tang Ling to retreat to the sidelines first. Then, he stepped forward alone to face the overwhelming barrage of soul-guided cannonballs from He Caitou.

With the sword in his hand, Xu Yanli smiled at him, and from an angle unnoticed by everyone, Xu Yanli's eyes instantly changed from gold to gray.

An indescribable aura of light surged into He Caitou's mind, and he felt his soul instantly impacted.

I was in a daze for a moment, but I didn't feel anything else.

Xu Yanli laughed even more excitedly, his excitement almost undisguised, as the flames on his sword were already poised to be unleashed.

"Third Soul Skill, Yangyan Divine Judgment." Xu Yanli slowly jumped into the air, and his long sword descended from the sky, approaching He Caitou's body.

The crimson flames instantly melted part of the soul tool on He Caitou's body, rendering it unusable.

Showing off a soul tool in front of Kong Deming's apprentice is practically suicide. The flames didn't burn everything, but only the key parts, rendering the other party unable to use it.

After all, the soul tool on He Caitou's body still had some use, and he intended to let them kill each other.

Xu Yanli knocked the other person off the stage, and seeing the anger burning in He Caitou's eyes, he chuckled softly: "How come you recognize me? But even if you say so, who would believe you?"

The opponent slowly raised his right hand, the flame flickering in his hand, but ultimately he didn't use it. Finally, Xu Yanli kicked him off the stage.

After kicking the other person away, Xu Yanli clapped his hands lightly, glanced disdainfully at the three people opposite him, and then smiled at Wang Yan, saying, "Teacher, can we announce the results now?"

"Xu Yanli's team from Class 1 won this match," Wang Yan said.

In a place unnoticed by everyone, in a light and a shadow, in black and white, two people sat facing each other.

"Mu En, you're getting old," Long Xiaoyao sighed after a moment of silence.

“You’re still the same, Xiaoyao. I promised to protect this child’s safety while he studies at Shrek Academy, and I also hope that one day when I’m gone, you can help protect Shrek Academy once more.” Moon said, lying on the recliner, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes.

“Alright, I have one request: whether this child leaves Shrek Academy in the future, Shrek Academy is not allowed to force him to leave.” Long Xiaoyao said after a moment of silence, “Perhaps this child will create a very bright future.”

……

After receiving the results, Xu Yanli slowly walked towards the competition venue, smiled gently, and then left the freshman assessment site with the other two people.

"You just said that big guy is from the Sun Moon Empire, why did you say that?" Xiao Xiao scratched her head and asked.

"Just kidding, but Xiao Xiao and Tang Ling, do you hate the Sun Moon Empire?" Xu Yanli asked with a smile.

"It's alright. Our family has some connections with the Sun Moon Empire. Back in the Star Luo Empire..." Xiao Xiao lowered her head and didn't speak, her hands moving slowly, looking rather aggrieved.

Xu Yanli smiled, then didn't say anything, but glanced at Tang Ling.

"I can't say whether I like it or hate it. If the Sun Moon Empire can provide me with a meal in the future, I wouldn't mind risking my life for it. What about you, boss?" Tang Ling asked, tapping Xu Yanli's shoulder.

"I think, well, I can't really say, but there are a lot of people from the Sun Moon Empire in my Xiaoyao Pavilion," Xu Yanli said vaguely.

At this moment, Xu Yanli was rubbing his two fingers together incessantly. Xiao Xiao's family background really needed to be investigated. Logically speaking, a martial soul like that shouldn't have a bad family background.

See if there's any way to deduce from her tone that her family doesn't dislike the Sun and Moon.

Chapter 48 A Dark and Windy Night (Please vote, thank you readers)

Xu Yanli quickly relaxed, looking relaxed, and a slight smile slowly appeared on his lips. Then he led the group to a restaurant next to Shrek Academy for a meal.

"Alright, let's not talk about this tonight. Relax a bit. There are five more matches tomorrow. I reckon that senior will be traveling around a lot, and he might even be equipped with a better soul tool. We need to be careful." Xu Yanli said with a smile while waiting for the food, having ordered a table full of dishes.

"Boss, don't worry. Although I'm not very strong, I will definitely obey your orders. I will do whatever you ask me to do and I will never hold you back," Tang Ling said, patting his chest.

Xu Yanli smiled but didn't reply. Xiao Xiao, however, said with a smile, "Tang Ling, you really need to improve your physical fitness."

Tang Ling scratched his head sheepishly and said, "My martial soul is a weapon martial soul, and it's an agility-type martial soul at that. My physical fitness can't be improved in a short time."

"Then just say so. Anyway, you should exercise more often." Xu Yanli said helplessly. As for physical fitness, he wasn't one of his own, so he certainly wouldn't give away what belonged to him.

Even something as relatively cheap as whale glue, he wouldn't give it to someone who wasn't one of his own, even if they seemed to be friends now.

After a while, the dishes were served quickly. Of course, these dishes were not cheap, but Xu Yanli would never skimp on his food.

Xu Yanli smiled and greeted the two of them, telling them to eat their fill.

Of the three people, apart from Xu Yanli, the other two were leaning against the wall as they left, their bellies bulging.

"You guys go back to your dorms first. I'm going back to Xiaoyao Pavilion. I won't be staying there. See you at the cafeteria tomorrow morning," Xu Yanli said with a smile at the restaurant entrance.

Xu Yanli yawned and returned to Xiaoyao Pavilion. After greeting Long Xiaoyao, who was drinking tea in the courtyard, he went back to his room to find Electrolux.

"From now on, I will formally teach you some necromancy. Necromancy is less about playing with death and more about playing with life," Electrox said loudly.

After Electrolux demonstrated the magic, he gestured for Xu Yanli to imitate it.

After I nodded, Xu Yanli slowly outlined the magic circle with his mental energy. It was quite mentally taxing, but once he drew it, he would remember it.

Xu Yanli only studied until midnight today, and then went out to cultivate in the evening in order to restore his mental strength. After all, there are five matches tomorrow, and no matter what, he can't show that he is very tired.

Otherwise, what if others think I'm weak?

As the sun slowly rose the next day, Xu Yanli yawned, quickly changed his clothes, and headed to the competition stage.

Today's match was relatively easy, at least for their team. Many teams that faced them chose to voluntarily give up.

After all, what if you get injured for a match and then lose the next one? After all, playing against them is a guaranteed loss.

Therefore, Xu Yanli was practically just leisurely waving his fan on the field, listening to the opponent say "I concede" as soon as they came on stage.

Xu Yanli rolled his eyes a couple of times out of boredom, and then arrogantly sat cross-legged on the competition stage where he was to begin his cultivation.

After five teams conceded defeat, he casually stepped off the stage, greeted Wang Yan, and then turned and left.

Mu Jin was excitedly cheering for Xu Yanli from the side, while Zhou Yi rolled her eyes, a hint of murderous intent flashing in her eyes.

Although Xu Yanli sensed something, he didn't take it seriously and turned to leave. After all, Long Xiaoyao was still in Shrek City, so how could he let something happen to him?

Besides, who would dare to be so brazen as to carry out an assassination within Shrek Academy? Of course, the White Tiger Duke's Mansion is an exception, but he hasn't offended the White Tiger Duke's Mansion...

However, he was wrong.

At this time, the lights inside Xiaoyao Pavilion had been turned off, and it was a dark and windy night outside.

Xu Yanli's stomach was rumbling. Although he had a boxed lunch in his storage soul tool, he didn't want to eat it. He wanted something hot, so he got out of bed, put on a coat, and quietly went outside.

After leaving Xiaoyao Pavilion, Xu Yanli headed towards the food street. Although the food street was a bit deserted at this time, many vendors were still open.

Xu Yanli followed the aroma towards the street corner, where a noodle shop was located. The fire on the stove was still burning, and steam was rising from the stove.

Xu Yanli smiled and walked over to the shop owner, saying, "Grandpa, give me a bowl of noodles, with meat and an egg."

"Alright, how much meat do you want?" the owner said with a smile, showing no sign of being interrupted as he was about to close up shop.

Xu Yanli smiled and took out a gold soul coin, saying, "Boss, give me as many as you have. Is this enough? But I'll take another one."

"That's enough, that's enough, there's still too much. I can't accept so much from you." The shopkeeper pushed the gold coins towards Xu Yanli, his face showing a hint of pain, but he was still determined to return them.

Xu Yanli smiled and said, "Boss, I didn't bring any change today. How about this, I'll come to you for meals in the future, and you can calculate when I run out of gold soul coins and then I'll pay you for the next one, right?"

"Fine, you're all right." The boss sighed and started making noodles.

In no time at all, a steaming bowl of noodles was placed in front of Xu Yanli.

Xu Yanli sat hunched over the small table, wolfing down his food. At this moment, he resembled the boy from his previous life who loved to eat midnight snacks, rather than the carefree king who schemed everything in this life.

Relaxed and comfortable.

However, he clearly didn't enjoy himself for long. After finishing the last sip of soup, he put the bowl aside and got up to leave.

As Xu Yanli walked, he felt increasingly uneasy, as if countless eyes were watching him from behind, and those eyes seemed to contain murderous intent.

Xu Yanli took out a jade fan from his storage soul tool and slowly opened it. Finally, through the flickering light, he saw a black afterimage on the side of the fan handle.

The little mouse has been found.

Xu Yanli slowly closed the fan, showing no sign of tension but rather appearing more relaxed, even humming a little tune.

There's a corner ahead, and behind it's a dead-end alley.

Xu Yanli turned, and after taking only a few steps, he pressed himself against the wall, hiding himself in the shadows nearby.
