Douluo Continent: We agreed on a simulation, but they've come to life?

Even he couldn't compare.

"That guy must be kicking himself now." Yu Tianlong crossed his arms and looked at Lu Cheng, who was still "stunned" in place, with a playful expression, and snorted.

As a member of the "clan faction," he naturally looked down on the academic faction.

In his eyes, Lu Cheng, who had been praised to the skies, was nothing more than a myth created by the academics, and that was all. Whether he could even compare to Long Aotian was another matter entirely.

And now, he actually dares to try to challenge the entire Shrek team by himself and recreate the classic from five years ago.

Isn't that just wishful thinking?

Child, times have changed. The days when it was just a bunch of weaklings from your academy fighting each other are over. Didn't you see that there are three disciples of the Clear Sky Sect in Shrek Academy?

"Something's not right." Xingyan frowned slightly. "Beibei has already revealed her trump card, but those guys from the Body Sect haven't reacted much. Could it be that this was within their expectations, or... that guy can handle it?"

"Hmph, just putting on an act." Yu Tianlong snorted coldly, slightly annoyed.

Ultimately, it's because the Heavenly Dragon Sect and Shrek Academy have a good personal relationship. After all, his Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus bloodline is somewhat related to Mu En, and even Bei Bei can be considered a distant cousin. If the Body Sect wants to destroy Shrek Academy, the Heavenly Dragon Sect will naturally not sit idly by.

"Mom, he seems to be in danger." Nan Qiuqiu said anxiously, clutching Nan Shuishui's sleeve with worry.

"Don't rush, from beginning to end, no one has truly understood him," Nan Shuishui said quietly. She could sense the terrifying power behind this young man, like a dormant volcano. Once ignited, it would be beyond the capabilities of the Shrek Academy students.

Although Bei Bei's martial spirit possession had amazed her to some extent.

But it was merely stunning.

That boy instilled a deep-seated fear in her...

"Die!!!"

Beibei took the lead, his body crackling with light and lightning, his half-dragon form transformed, his hands becoming sharp dragon claws. He leaped up and descended towards Lu Cheng. At the same time, his jet-black spirit rings flashed, revealing his true martial spirit form.

A surge of deep blue, turbulent hair instantly enveloped Lu Cheng's entire body, controlling his movements.

Following closely behind were Bei Bei and three youths wielding the Clear Sky Hammer. The leader showed no mercy, immediately unleashing his Martial Soul True Form and swinging the Clear Sky Hammer straight at Lu Cheng's head.

From all four directions, Lu Cheng's escape route was completely blocked.

The scene suddenly fell silent.

It was as if time had frozen.

Lu Cheng remained calm as he surveyed Bei Bei, who was frozen in mid-air, about to be struck by the dragon's claws. He chuckled softly, and his originally dark eyes, which had somehow turned blood-red, split in two.

Like two eyes reflecting all things in the world, the two pupils transformed into two great suns.

It has acquired a touch of the eerie.

"Om..."

The entire world was silent.

Black, black, black, red, red, red, red, red.

Eight spirit rings rose from beneath their feet, and a terrifying yet heavy pressure instantly enveloped everyone in the arena, locking them in place as if time and space were imprisoned.

"No, this isn't right..." Beibei's pupils trembled as she looked at Lu Cheng, who was so close yet she couldn't bring herself to strike. Her heart was filled with shock and anger. How could he not even get close to Lu Cheng?!

The other Haotian Sect disciples were also frozen in place, unable to strike even an inch with their hammers.

"I seem to have kept the power of my double pupils hidden until now, relying on the Sun-Shooting Bow and the Snow Emperor. I've been neglecting it..."

"Today, I will use you as a sacrifice for my flag."

Lu Cheng remained calm, his double pupils radiating intense pressure. The entire world fell silent for a moment, then a more terrifying wave surged forth. Bei Bei, who had been leading the charge, was instantly annihilated into ashes. The martial soul fusion technique that enveloped his entire body, along with his long, wave-like hair, vanished in an instant. The Lan Ruoruo and Lan Susu sisters coughed up blood and collapsed unconscious.

The three Haotian Sect disciples were directly knocked off the stage, their bodies crashing down, bleeding from their seven orifices. Although they did not die, they were definitely no longer able to fight and were seriously injured.

A ripple emanated from Lu Cheng's eyes and spread in all directions.

Then all of this returned to calm.

The stadium, which can hold nearly 100,000 people, was completely silent at this moment.

Even Xu Tianran's hands clenched tightly, his body leaned forward, almost standing up from his wheelchair, his eyes fixed on the figure in the arena.

In that instant, he seemed to see not a human being, but a god.

A god who looks down upon the human world with the contempt of an ant.

Contra's cultivation level isn't the most shocking thing at this moment. Those eerie double pupils—wasn't he the one who appeared with a mental attribute in the last competition? Wasn't he a support-type martial soul?

How did they achieve such formidable combat power?

Two Soul Saints, five Soul Emperors, and even one with a Martial Soul Fusion Technique—all were instantly defeated!

Moreover, judging from his demeanor, he moved with ease and leisure, as if he hadn't exerted much effort at all. Even if an ordinary Title Douluo came, could he do the same?

Just how many trump cards does this guy still have up his sleeve?!

Xu Tianran's face turned dark.

Lu Cheng remained calm, his double pupils slowly fading to their usual dark black, and looked at the referee who was already stunned: "Announce the verdict."

"The Body Sect... wins!"

The referee looked at Lu Cheng's face, which resembled a monster, and spoke in a trembling voice.

Everyone thought Lu Cheng might win, but no one expected him to win the match so decisively.

"Huff~"

She let out a long breath, her beautiful eyes fixed on Lu Cheng in the arena with a complex expression. Sure enough, he was still the same as she remembered, ruling over all the younger generation like a demon king, like a mountain blocking the way for all the young geniuses.

It cannot be crossed, it cannot be climbed.

We can only look up to them.

Looking into the distance at the numerous sect teams that were already dumbfounded, Xu Jiujiu revealed a mocking smile. The despair we felt five years ago, it's time for you to feel it too.

You know what it means when he's around, there's no chance of winning the championship. You'd better fight tooth and nail for the semi-final title.

"This, how is this possible..." Yu Tianlong trembled and almost fell to the ground. He gripped the metal railing tightly and looked at the figure, which seemed like a raging beast, inspiring fear and despair.

"Young Master, Young Master, Bei Bei is dead..." Xing Yan said in a low voice, his throat bobbing.

"I know!!!" Yu Tianlong squeezed out the words through gritted teeth. Whether it was fear or anger, there was no longer a trace of provocation in his eyes as he looked at Lu Cheng. He lowered his head and dared not look at him again.

At this moment, his Dao heart shattered.

Lu Cheng also crushed the Dao hearts of many top geniuses present with a single kick.

Chapter 233 Terrifying Combat Power

"I……"

Nan Qiuqiu, who had won by "luck," was stunned. She had only heard about that person's deeds from some senior brothers and sisters in the sect, but now, everything had become real.

"Mom, if you were to play, could we win?"

Nan Qiuqiu looked stiffly at her equally dazed mother beside her.

"Hmm..." Nan Shuishui's lips moved, but she didn't say anything.

Judging from the power just now, she probably wouldn't have been able to withstand it. What's even more terrifying is that this child is clearly in control and has a strong backup plan.

Is this really Contra?

During the years she lingered in the Contra Douluo realm, even fighting opponents of higher levels was extremely difficult, let alone directly jumping a whole realm to fight against a Title Douluo powerhouse.

but……

"In short, the Body Sect is absolutely not to be offended." Nan Qiuqiu's eyes were solemn. She even glanced at her lively and lovely daughter beside her. The thought just arose in her mind, but she suppressed it again.

She's at the Dragon Gate level, not yet at that stage.

Whether or not a marriage alliance is formed, I doubt they'd even consider this girl.

However, as the leader of the Earth Dragon Gate, he also had a keen observation of the situation on the continent and vaguely knew that war might be approaching. Since the Earth Dragon Gate was located in the Heavenly Soul Empire, it had to find a backer.

If it's not Shrek Academy, then it must be... the Body Sect.

Seeing her mother's worried expression, Nan Qiuqiu thought her mother was upset about being outdone by a junior, so she quickly reassured her, "Mother, you are already very outstanding. You have single-handedly supported the Earth Dragon Gate all these years. Even if you took in a live-in son-in-law, I wouldn't say anything... Oh dear!"

Nan Qiuqiu thought she was being clever, but ended up getting a brutal beating.

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Nan Shuishui rolled her eyes at her daughter, annoyed.

"I'm not that fragile. Besides, among all the sect leaders present, which one is confident that they can beat that young man? Heh, this competition is a gathering of heroes, all here to compete for first place, but look at them now, who dares to utter a single word?"

"Their confidence has been crushed by Lu Cheng's kick. After this, when they encounter the Body Sect in the future, they will either surrender or play dead."

Nan Shuishui sighed softly.

This grand spectacle, ironically, became a solo performance by this young man.

……

"What kind of move is this?!"

Wang Yanfeng was dumbfounded. "When the young sect leader was sparring with us before, it seemed like he never took it out."

"Hehe, if I really brought it out, it would be bullying you guys." Poison Undying appeared in the rest area, his voice cheerful, and he looked at the proud figure standing in the center of the arena with a smile.

"Sect Master!" Everyone bowed.

"Sigh, no need..." Du Bu Si waved his hand and looked at Long Aotian and Vina, who were equally shocked: "What, you don't actually think he's fighting with you, do you? Bullying children is just a game."

"His realm is beyond my comprehension. What has earned him the respect of us old folks over the years is not the immortal herbs, but his own strength."

"Gulp~" Everyone's throats bobbed, their faces filled with astonishment.

Everyone knew the young sect leader was strong, but this was the first time they had seen him truly display his power.

"And this is far more than his actual combat strength; it's all just a joke."

Poison couldn't kill him, yet his words caused everyone's pupils to shrink. This wasn't even his full strength? Was he just playing around?!

“He has three martial souls, a three-life martial soul unprecedented in the entire continent: the Sun-Shooting Bow, the Double Pupil, and the Snow Emperor. Among them, the Double Pupil has always been used for auxiliary functions such as mental detection. Don’t forget how he won the last competition,” Poison Undying said leisurely.

"...Snow Emperor, Sun-Shooting Bow!"

The group exchanged glances before uttering two unbelievable answers.

Indeed, what made Lu Cheng famous in the previous year were these two martial souls. With the Emperor Sword, he withstood the combat power of a Soul Saint, and the Sun-Shooting Bow pushed the ranged martial soul to its limit. No one dared to be afraid of it. Its speed and terrifying power were the nightmares of countless academies in the previous year.
