Douluo: Dragon King's Tai Chi Mystery

Referee, Holy Dragon Douluo Enci!

The final match features two young talents, each with countless vested interests at stake. It's bound to be a fierce battle, and in the heat of the moment, it's easy to lose control of one's emotions.

Especially with the Mountain Dragon King Long Yue, there's no guarantee he won't go into a dragon madman state if things get heated. Zhao Xuanzhen is far more important than Ye Xinglan, and the Star Luo Empire doesn't want to offend the Spirit Pagoda. Therefore, Dai Tianling decided to invite the Holy Dragon Douluo to personally preside over the finals to prevent any further unexpected events from happening!

"quiet."

Enci's deep and resonant voice rang out, instantly spreading throughout the entire venue. The clamor of the 300,000 spectators was suppressed by this Limit Douluo all by himself.

"Before the final begins, Your Majesty, please speak."

A megaphone slowly rose into the air. Dai Tianling stood up, a slight smile on his face, and said:

"The All-Continent Youth Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament is a grand event held every three years on the Star Luo Continent. Every time I sit here to watch the competition, I can't help but admire the vigor and drive of the Empire's youth."

You did a fantastic job! The world always belongs to the young; a strong youth makes a strong nation. The future belongs to your passionate era!

The cheers were deafening, and the audience, their faces flushed, shouted "Long live His Majesty!" A wise and capable emperor must possess great charisma, and Dai Tianling was indeed a great ruler of the Star Luo Empire!

Dai Tianling continued, "It is an honor that this year's Soul Master Competition has invited Shrek Academy, our former hometown, to participate."

Like Monster Academy, Shrek Academy is considered the premier academy on the continent, having nurtured countless outstanding talents over its 20,000-year history. Today, Dragon Leap from Monster Academy and Zhao Xuanzhen from Shrek Academy will engage in a final individual competition. Regardless of victory or defeat, this will undoubtedly foster a spirit of peaceful coexistence between the two continents.

The winner of today's competition will receive a soul bone as a reward. The soul bone is located at the top of this platform, and the winner will have to retrieve it personally!

The soul-guided camera moved to the high platform built next to the competition venue at the right time. A cold jade brocade box appeared on the lens, containing the soul bone that soul masters dream of, waiting for the winner of the True Dragon Battle.

"In addition to a soul bone, the winner will also receive an extra reward from the Star Luo Empire: the title of Imperial Viscount!"

Upon hearing this, Crimson Dragon Douluo Zhuoshi snorted coldly. Dai Tianling was starting to poach people. But then he thought about it again. Zhao Xuanzhen had already stated that he would apply for graduation after the exchange activity ended. He had never recognized himself as a Shrek Academy student. The one who should be worried and troubled was the Spirit Pagoda.

"Viscount, Brother Zhao isn't tempted, is he..." Le Zhengyu winked at Yuanen Yehui.

"How could that be? Do you think the boss is stupid?"

Yuan Enhui pouted, and the others nodded in agreement, but Xu Lizhi looked like a wilted eggplant, his eyes were bruised, and he slumped down without moving.

Seeing that his companions hadn't grasped the key point, Le Zhengyu, a well-traveled nobleman, sighed and said with exasperation, "You don't understand. The Star Luo Empire follows the old system; to put it bluntly, they allow polygamy..."

"Eh..."

Yuan Enhui was taken aback, Gu Yue's eyes suddenly turned extremely dangerous, while Ye Xinglan had a thoughtful expression.

Although the Sun Moon Federation's regulations only apply to ordinary civilians, there are plenty of high-level Soul Masters who can maintain their status at home while having affairs outside. However, the more famous one is, the more one should cherish their reputation. If Zhao Xuanzhen has the Star Luo title to cover up his reputation, at least he can give the world an explanation.

"Never mind, let's watch the game first."

Sensing that her two best friends were acting strangely, Yuan Enhui quickly changed the subject, acting as a buffer.

On the other side, Dai Tianling delivered a long and eloquent speech, finally raising his right fist and saying in a passionate tone:

"I hereby declare the final of the individual competition of the All-Continent Youth Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament officially open!"

Please welcome both players to the arena!

The audience cheered wildly for Long Yue. With the blood of the Star Luo Empire flowing through their veins, they naturally longed to see Monster Academy defend the glory of the empire rather than the individual championship falling into the hands of Douluo Continent.

Long Yue, with his bald head and tall, imposing figure, walked with each step firmly, his pupils filled with a dangerous crimson light.

Saint Dragon Douluo Enci did his best, but still couldn't control Long Yue's rage. Long Yue had a hurdle in his heart: the whole country was watching this battle. Monster Academy couldn't afford to lose, and they had to stop Zhao Xuanzhen's advance no matter what!

On the other side of the competition venue, the radiance transformed into a golden veil, draping over the young man who walked slowly towards them. The soft light illuminated his handsome face, making it as delicate as an oil painting.

Ignoring all the noise around him, Zhao Xuanzhen's face remained expressionless as he calmly stepped onto the competition stage.

Their eyes met, and an invisible vortex seemed to flow between them. Saint Dragon Douluo Enci glanced at the two super geniuses, raised his right hand high, and then suddenly brought it down!

"Game start!"

Zhao Xuanzhen stood still like a pine tree, his green robe hanging down, a strand of black hair on his forehead turning white. The dragon leap opposite him had completed the possession of the Mountain Dragon King, transforming into a five-meter-tall humanoid beast. Its brown dragon scales resembled the heavy earth, and its bulging muscles radiated heat.

With a deafening roar, the ground exploded, and Long Yue unveiled the prelude to this final. A brownish-red light streak, tearing through the air, hurtled towards him. His right fist pierced the air, emitting a thunderous roar. The tangible pressure of his fist was like a mountain, crushing down on Zhao Xuanzhen's seemingly frail figure!

As the shadow loomed over him, Zhao Xuanzhen raised his arm and easily caught the Mountain Dragon King's full-force attack!

The moment fists collided, shockwaves swept outwards in all directions, and the soul-guided protective shield rippled. The audience painfully covered their ears, their eardrums throbbing from the sound of the fists colliding through the shield!

The two reflected each other's images in their pupils. Long Yue's gaze froze as he saw a golden color as bright as fire, liquid gold draped over him like armor. Zhao Xuanzhen's exposed skin also shone with a brilliant gold, his golden eyes were extremely bright, and his body burst with unimaginable power!

True Self, Gold-level Second Awakening!

Long Yue had seen the awakening of the Golden Martial Soul in the video of Zhao Xuanzhen's battle against Xu Tianzhao, and when he actually faced the battle, he was still shocked by this ultimate technique of the original body lineage!

His long, golden hair fluttered in the wind, and his pupils seemed to burn with flames, glowing with a dazzling and fiery gold. Although Long Yue was clearly the taller and more powerful one, Zhao Xuanzhen's gaze seemed to be looking down at him from above!

The next moment, Zhao Xuanzhen gripped the Mountain Dragon King's thick claws tightly. Long Yue didn't even see the golden figure's movements clearly before his brain exploded like a landmine, flipping him to the side and his eyeballs rolled back!

The metacarpal bone and skull collided directly. The Mountain Dragon King's physique and willpower were truly impressive. He withstood Zhao Xuanzhen's enhanced Dao Soul's Advance Blocking Hammer. Long Yue tried to resist, but his brute force, which was completely without any method, was like a toy that Zhao Xuanzhen could manipulate at will!

Disarming the Mountain Dragon King's struggling force, Zhao Xuanzhen attached Yin and Yang energies to his elbow. In an instant, Long Yue felt as if he had been hit head-on by a high-speed soul-guided train. He rose from the ground to the sky and then crashed back to the ground, so fast that the process of rising and falling was almost omitted!

The overwhelming force unleashed its power, shattering the Mountain Dragon King's hard scales into fragments. This absolute offensive shattered the Mountain Dragon King's proud defense!

The dragon's leap as it crashed to the ground created ripples across the earth, and countless metal slags floated up in the air before falling like raindrops.

Long Yue suddenly spat out a mouthful of foul blood, his body writhing in pain. The difference in strength between the two was not actually overwhelming, but Zhao Xuanzhen's unparalleled close combat skills were something Long Yue had never seen before.

The Mountain Dragon King's brute strength was completely useless, while his opponent's punches were steady, accurate, and ruthless, with hidden force penetrating his limbs and bones, causing extreme pain to torment his body and mind!

"Roar--"

The dragon roared hoarsely, and six great spirit rings—three purple and three black—appeared. The first round of close combat ended in a crushing defeat. Long Yue immediately changed his battle plan, using the Mountain Dragon King's power to change the environment!

A dark shadow roared out, and a wingless dragon carried the ancient city on its back. The dragon then transformed into a continuous mountain range.

"Mountains and rivers!"

A brownish-red light of soul power shot into the sky, the Mountain Dragon King's first and second soul rings shone, and the roar of the dragon made the arena buzz.

With a roar from the dragon, the entire world changed dramatically. Mountains gathered and surrounded Zhao Xuanzhen from all directions, and the solid earth transformed into surging rivers, whipping up towering waves!

Mountains collapsed and seas tsunamis raged, the earth was overturned—this was the manifestation of the Mountain Dragon King's will and the merciless judgment of the forces of nature!

"The word Gen means mountains and rivers!"

"The character '坎' represents a river!"

A scene that shattered Long Yue's perception occurred: another ancient and majestic mountain range was awakened. One mountain after another rose from the ground, with sharp, dark blue-black boulders. The desolate and barren atmosphere dispelled the power that originally belonged to the Mountain Dragon King!

The deafening roar continued for a long time. The brown mountains summoned by Long Yue crashed into this dark green mountain range, but they were as fragile as eggs hitting rocks, crumbling and disintegrating into nothingness!

At the same time, the river's turbidity receded, and the clear, deep Kan water exuded an aura of extreme cold. The water's force remained undiminished, growing even more powerful under the control of the Kan trigram, with roaring, raging waves crashing back towards the incredulous Long Yue!

"He...he can actually control mountains and rivers, even better than my crazy brother!?"

In the Monster Academy's viewing area, Dai Yun'er rubbed her eyes. The Mountain Dragon King's ability to change the environment was considered invincible by all the teachers and students of Monster Academy!

The truth was astonishing: Long Yue couldn't defeat Zhao Xuanzhen in close combat, and he still couldn't defeat Zhao Xuanzhen even when facing mountains and rivers!

Gazing at the golden figure wielding the two elements with such ease, his handsome profile carrying a hint of coldness, his appearance far surpassing that of the bald, burly man Long Yue, Princess Xingluo's heartstrings were suddenly tugged, and she felt a genuine desire to choose Zhao Xuanzhen as her consort.

Beside Dai Yun'er, Tiger King Dai Yueyan had fully recovered. Since his humiliating defeat in the match, the Fourth Prince had been in a very low mood for the past few days, but upon seeing Long Yue's miserable state today, he instantly recovered.

Zhao Xuanzhen is a kind man; he showed him mercy!

Long Yue struggled against the mountains and rivers formed by the convergence of the Eight Trigrams and the Mysterious Gates. His dragon eyes were almost dripping with blood. He never expected that the Mountain Dragon King would be crushed by Zhao Xuanzhen in the exact same form!

"Third Soul Skill, Swamp!"

The earth softened and collapsed, and the swamp replaced the previously churning river. A nauseating stench of decay spread, and the muddy swamp with its terrifying suction force rapidly expanded. This was a death trap set by the Mountain Dragon King to bury his great enemy!

“The character '坤' means firm ground.”

Zhao Xuanzhen clasped his hands together in front of his chest, making a downward pressing motion. The sticky mud met its match and quickly solidified. The swamp trap transformed into solid, flat ground, and the suction force that had tried to drag Zhao Xuanzhen into the abyss vanished without a trace.

"Do you want anything else?"

The clear, melodious voice of Zhao Xuanzhen reached his ears, and the extreme frustration finally ignited the madness deep within the Mountain Dragon King's bloodline!

"Zhao Xuanzhen, you made this choice yourself!"

The dragon's eyes blazed with blood-red light, and a scorching aura burst forth. With each breath, Long Yue produced long plumes of scalding white smoke. Dark brown dragon scales grew wildly on his skin, and ferocious dragon horns protruded from his forehead!

Saint Dragon Douluo Enci's face darkened. The old man had spent three days trying to appease Long Yue, but Zhao Xuanzhen broke through his defenses in just three minutes!

"Shoot-"

A pair of dark gold dragon wings tore through his clothes, casting huge shadows. A set of dark gold battle armor with hard lines and rugged mountain rock patterns covered Long Yue's entire body!

Two-word battle armor, Mountain Dragon!

A slowly rotating Tai Chi diagram unfolded silently. Zhao Xuanzhen stretched his arms out to his sides, and Yin and Yang energies swirled out. His fists, arms, shoulders, and battle armor components continuously emerged from his body. A pair of black and white wings that blotted out the sky spread out, and his aura was still above the mountain dragon that leaped!

Two-word battle armor, Tai Chi!

Chapter 131 The Dragon Madman Who Was Beaten into a Milk Dragon, Mountains Collapsed, Amidst the Crowd and Noise, Only You in His Eyes (4K)

Fully armored, the protagonists of the True Dragon War both wore their proud two-word battle armor. They were the only two two-word battle armor masters under the age of twenty on the entire Douluo Star!

The two entered the third round of battle in their complete forms. Seeing this, Zhuo Shi, the Crimson Dragon Douluo on the high platform, couldn't help but sigh. Zhao Xuanzhen was the future leader of the Spirit Pagoda, and Long Yue was the mainstay of the Star Luo Empire. They would eventually become strangers with Shrek Academy, but to be able to see the two super geniuses fight so spectacularly was a kind of enjoyment and honor!

Crimson filled Long Yue's pupils, and his rage ignited the Mountain Dragon King's most primal wildness. The roar that came out of his mouth was not like a dragon's cry, but rather more like the bloodthirsty growl of a jungle beast!

The fourth soul ring of ten thousand years shone brightly. Long Yue spread his arms wide, and the rugged rock patterns on the surface of the two-word battle armor Mountain Dragon burst out with a brownish light. The space of the arena seemed to be squeezed tightly by an invisible giant hand, and the earth collapsed downward to form a huge pit with a diameter of tens of meters. The cracks spread to the edge of the soul guide shield!

Mountain Dragon King's fourth soul skill: Heavy Pressure!

Altering gravity is also one of the Mountain Dragon King's specialties. The air is as thick as glue, and light is deflected under this terrifying gravitational field.

Long Yue roared to the sky, his scarlet dragon eyes glaring at Zhao Xuanzhen. No one could stand tall under the heavy pressure of the Mountain Dragon King's command. He wanted to see this most powerful opponent in his life bend down and even kneel down!

As the immense pressure descended upon him, the earth shifted to the Kun trigram position, and a mysterious aura emanated from Zhao Xuanzhen's body. The gravity, which was enough to crush mountains, vanished like a mud ox sinking into the sea, losing all its violent power!

His gaze pierced through the distorted gravity ripples and calmly landed on Long Yue's ferocious face. His black and white wings on his back suddenly trembled, and the cracked ground beneath his feet turned into dust. Zhao Xuanzhen stretched out his body and walked on flat ground in the muddy swamp under the heavy pressure of the Mountain Dragon King!

Gazing at the golden figure speeding against the gravitational field, Long Yue roared unwillingly. It was as if heaven and earth had abandoned the Mountain Dragon King. Mountains, rivers, swamps, gravity... all the environments controlled by the Mountain Dragon King had turned to the embrace of others. Everything that the Mountain Dragon King was good at, Zhao Xuanzhen would only be better at!

A hurricane howled and swept across the sky, a golden line traversed space, and the next second, the two figures collided, the battlefield shifting from the ground to the sky!

The intensity of this individual final battle exceeded everyone's expectations. Zhao Xuanzhen and Long Yue fought with their bodies and the functions of their battle armor, and their speed of movement made most of the Soul Masters below the Title Douluo level feel ashamed!

The sky path the two passed through was filled with one ring-shaped air explosion after another, which dispersed the clouds and violently shredded them, creating a visually stunning effect. The sky visibly became clear and bright!

"null--"

Long Yue tilted his head to the side, the dragon scales on his cheeks cracking inch by inch, and a fist mark was clearly visible, leaving traces of yin and yang energies.

"impossible!"

Shaking his dazed head, Long Yue's roar seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth. The Mountain Dragon Battle Armor gathered the most advanced soul guidance technology in the Star Luo Continent, and the Holy Dragon Douluo Enci personally acknowledged it as the strongest two-word battle armor in Star Luo.

He thought that releasing his battle armor would make up for the gap, but who would have thought that the distance between the two would only widen, which undoubtedly meant that Shanlong was far inferior to Zhao Xuanzhen's two-word battle armor Taiji!

The madness deep within his blood-red eyes completely spiraled out of control. Dragon leaped to the ground, his fists slamming into the shattered earth!

The entire competition venue... no, the entire underground of Xingluo Stadium, seemed to be where an ancient earth dragon, which had been sleeping for ten thousand years, was forcibly awakened by the frenzied will of the Mountain Dragon King. Brownish-red air currents surged into the sky from the cracks and rushed toward Long Yue's body!

Fifth Soul Skill: Earth Vein!

The Mountain Dragon Armor greedily devoured the earth's energy, its hard and ferocious armor thickening and deforming, with jagged, sharp, massive rock spikes sprouting from its shoulders and elbows. Dark gold dragon wings were covered with a layer of heavy rock armor that flowed with the luster of lava. In the blink of an eye, Dragon Leap had transformed into a ten-meter-tall war fortress, exuding a savage aura!

The evil side is three times stronger, the white side is three times weaker. Zhao Xuanzhen has no interest in fighting the emotionally stable Long Yue. He wants to fight the madman Long Yue whose strength has increased dramatically!

The jet-black third soul ring shone brightly. As Zhao Xuanzhen's fighting spirit changed, the amplification given by the Path of Limitlessness increased infinitely. The true self has no limits!

With the boost from the fifth soul skill, Earth Vein, Long Yue's morale was boosted once again. He grabbed a vicious-looking double-pointed spear with his right hand. This was a weapon that Monster Academy had tailored for the Mountain Dragon King. Wherever the spear pointed, it created an absolute death vacuum!

Long Yue, wielding a double-pointed spear, descended with a gigantic body reaching ten meters in height. The spear, sharp enough to tear apart anything, pierced straight toward Zhao Xuanzhen's chest!

"Chong-"

A flash of dark gold light appeared, and to Long Yue's shocked and astonished expression, the soul-guided weapon that Monster Academy had painstakingly crafted was cleanly and neatly sliced ​​into several pieces along with the front half of the spear shaft. Zhao Xuanzhen's ten fingers extended ten sharp blades, indicating that he was the mastermind behind it all!

Dark gold terror claw!

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's strongest destructive soul skill was still in full swing. The dark gold light that cut through the spear carried the residual power to cut through everything and fiercely tore apart the thick, mountain-like earth vein armor on Long Yue's chest!

The massive body flew backward like a cannonball, and ten huge, blood-soaked claw marks crisscrossed on Long Yue's chest, forming a gruesome X-shaped wound. Blood gushed out, and hot droplets splashed onto the ground, sending up plumes of white smoke!

"Uh-"

Long Yue's miserable howl was earth-shattering. The excruciating pain in his chest, coupled with the humiliation of being defeated under the watchful eyes of everyone, left his lava-blooded eyes filled with nothing but destructive savagery!

"Mountains, heed my command!"

The Mountain Dragon King let out a final, blood-soaked roar, the sound of which shook the arena so much that it seemed about to collapse. Its sixth spirit ring shone with a deep black light, the earth groaned, space trembled, and the towering, majestic mountain shattered its surface!
