Douluo: Dragon King's Tai Chi Mystery

Lightning burst forth and swirled as the two leopards collided violently, unleashing an exceptionally blinding burst of lightning. After a piercing scream, the sound of cracking bones mingled with the smell of burning flesh, and the two Soul Masters collapsed to the ground, their bodies twitching weakly a few times before transforming into white light and disappearing from the primeval forest.

Two teammates were almost instantly killed, and the opponent didn't even use a single soul skill. Jade Bird Soul Master knew that the enemy was extraordinary, but there was no turning back once the arrow was released, so he had to grit his teeth and go for it! The first and third soul rings flashed with light, and the wings transformed into sharp guillotines, accompanied by a sky full of feather blades falling from the sky.

Ripples spread out from the hem of his clothes as Zhao Xuanzhen's left hand transformed into a whip and lashed towards the sky. The seemingly gentle force caused the air to vibrate as if a bowstring had snapped. The jade bird's emerald wings vibrated rapidly, but were caught at the base by an invisible force, and its green feathers shattered like rain!

Just before the white light enveloped his body, the Jade Bird Soul Venerable looked at the Azure Vine Soul Venerable. Under that hopeful gaze, the Azure Vine Soul Venerable "lived up to expectations," slammed on the brakes, turned around, and fled in a sorry state!

"What bad luck! What bad luck! I ran into Zhao Xuanzhen right at the start of the battle!"

The Heavenly Vine Soul Master swore to the heavens that he had never run this fast in the past fourteen years!

Are you kidding me? Three Soul Masters couldn't even last three moves against Zhao Xuanzhen. Is that guy really from the same world as them?

Locking onto the panicked and desperate Sky Vine Soul Master, Zhao Xuanzhen raised his palm and condensed a stream of black and white energy. Then, he suddenly sensed something and did not release the energy.

"Want to run?"

Amidst dappled shadows, a clear, cold female voice echoed softly. Three cyan and white wind blades whistled towards them. Tian Qing Teng, focused on escaping, had no energy to deal with the sneak attack, and the wind blades accurately cleaved him in two.

The black-haired girl leaped down from the tree branch, the wind element still swirling around her fingertips. She glanced at the charred remains left by the two lightning leopards, then her gaze fell on Zhao Xuanzhen's palm, where his inner energy flowed, and she said:

"Sorry, I stole your kill."

"Let's go, let's clear the area."

Zhao Xuanzhen smiled and shook his head, the black and white vortex surrounding him forming a Tai Chi diagram.

"Ah."

Gu Yue responded softly and walked to Zhao Xuanzhen's side, walking side by side.

The two headed straight toward the center of the forest, encountering several newly formed teams along the way. These teams varied in size and combat strength, but Xuan Yue easily drove them all away.

"Screw rustle..."

As they passed a dense thicket of grass, Zhao Xuanzhen and Gu Yue stopped in perfect unison. A bright yellow sword light cleaved through the obstructing grass. Ye Xinglan, holding the Star God Sword, looked at the two who had moved in sync with her, pursed her crimson lips, and said earnestly:

"I'm here to join you."

One class monitor, two deputy class monitors, three people make a perfect group.

Zhao Xuanzhen fell into thought. He wasn't becoming class monitor for the contribution points; he simply disliked being superior to others. However, since he had decided to be the class monitor for the first year, it would be best if the vice-monitor was someone he knew and could rely on.

After three years together, the two had become friends. For Zhao Xuanzhen, no one in Class 1 of the first year was more suitable as the second vice class monitor than Ye Xinglan. He nodded slightly and said:

"welcome."

"Thank you."

Ye Xinglan smiled with relief. Her ten-year-long facial paralysis was cured the moment she became teammates with Zhao Xuanzhen. She slowly walked around to the other side and, together with Gu Yue, embraced Zhao Xuanzhen in the center.

The Mysterious Moon Star Squad is formed!

In the observation room, Shen Yi watched the three-person team that had begun to advance unimpeded and couldn't help but sigh, "Zhao Xuanzhen, Gu Yue, and Ye Xinglan have formed a team... the outcome of the first-year class monitor competition is already decided."

"No, the outcome is still uncertain." Wu Changkong disagreed. "Zhao Xuanzhen is already the target of everyone's criticism. Tang Wulin, Wu Siduo, Luo Guixing and other students on the list of young geniuses have all joined forces, and their numbers are increasing. Each of them is an outstanding student of their age."

"Senior, tell me the truth, who do you most want to be the class monitor for the first year?" Shen Yi asked.

"...Tang Wulin."

After a moment of silence, Wu Changkong gave his answer: "The class monitor is the spiritual symbol of a class. He must not only have fighting power, but also leadership qualities."

I don't know Zhao Xuanzhen, nor do I understand his personality beneath his formidable fighting prowess. Tang Wulin, on the other hand, is the most outstanding student I've ever taught, perfectly fitting both of those criteria.

“Senior brother, I’ve been Zhao Xuanzhen’s class advisor for three years, so I know him a bit,” Shen Yi sighed. “Today’s selection criteria is combat effectiveness, so the class monitor can’t possibly be any student other than Zhao Xuanzhen.”

Ants can kill an elephant, but they can't kill a dragon soaring in the sky. If someone's strength is far inferior to Zhao Xuanzhen's, numbers are useless in front of him.

If the training ground were the real world, then Class 1 of Grade 1 would face a bloody massacre, including those geniuses who stood proudly on the list of young prodigies. They would be like a flock of lambs to the slaughter, without any power to resist.

I used to hear my teacher say that in the previous era, the Lord of Qingtian Pavilion suppressed countless future powerhouses, such as the Shrek Twin Dragons, the Spirit Pagoda Twin Phoenixes, and the Tang Sect Twin Swords, until they could not even raise their heads.

Zhao Xuanzhen has already embarked on this path, and is even stronger than the Pavilion Master of Qingtian Pavilion of the same age.

“Is that so…” Wu Changkong murmured, “Then I’ll add another challenge to his path of growth and see if he can handle it with ease.”

Having said that, Wu Changkong approached the megaphone, and a chilling voice echoed across the primeval forest:

"Attention all trainees, the training ground has turned into night!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the daylight faded in the primeval forest, and night fell!

"it's dark?"

The nine geniuses had gathered and occupied a forest area rich in Blue Silver Grass. Xu Xiaoyan looked up at the starry night sky and exclaimed with delight, "Great! This time I'm not just an accessory!"

Tang Wulin clenched his fist and said excitedly, "Xiao Yan, your ice staff has evolved into the Star Wheel Ice Staff at night. With the absolute certainty of starlight attribute, we have at least a 10% greater chance of defeating Zhao Xuanzhen!"

"Starlight attribute!?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Siduo and the others were overjoyed. As heirs of a large family, they had naturally heard of the terrifying power of absolute certainty. Xu Xiaoyan's starlight control was effective for at least one second, and that short second was enough to determine the outcome of a battle!

Luo Guixing clapped his hands, drawing everyone's attention, and said in a deep voice, "Let's make this clear beforehand: before we defeat Zhao Xuanzhen, we must remain united and not have any second thoughts."

The self-proclaimed imprisoned young genius looked at his teammates with a meaningful gaze, paying particular attention to Dark Bear Yang Nianxia and Jade Serpent Zheng Yiran. One of them had an honest appearance but a sinister heart, while the other was treacherous and vicious inside and out. Who knew that when Zhao Xuanzhen was about to be defeated, they might suddenly stab their teammates in the back?

"Okay," the two said sullenly.

Luo Guixing nodded. These young geniuses were all proud and unwilling to be inferior to others. The hastily assembled Lao Jiumen could not be considered stable. They were only defeated because Taiji Zhao Xuanzhen had outstanding strength. If they did not unite to resist, they would inevitably be defeated one by one.

Apart from Wu Siduo and Tang Wulin, the rest of them are far less powerful than Lan Dianyu Yuanheng three years ago, not to mention Zhao Xuanzhen who rose to the top of the list of young geniuses with lightning speed. It is rumored that he defeated the top four in Shrek Academy one by one!

At the age of ten, he topped the list of child prodigies and was recognized by the Soul Master world as the number one prodigy on the continent. His position at the top will be unshakable for the next eight years. The next Sky Douluo who will dominate the era is rising like the red sun!

The number one on the list of young geniuses is indeed fierce and powerful, but a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger. Unless they are personally defeated by Zhao Xuanzhen, these young geniuses will never admit defeat and will never acknowledge him for the rest of their lives!

“There are eighteen of us in total, covering all types of Soul Masters, each with their own strengths.” Luo Guixing said with a burning gaze, “Tang Wulin, you were once teammates with Tai Chi Zhao Xuanzhen and Elemental Gu Yue, and you were also opponents with Ye Xinglan. Tell me how we should fight.”

Each of the nine prison guards has a considerable network of connections, such as Zheng Yiran's underlings Zheng Long and Zheng Hu, Xu Yucheng's old friend, and Luo Guixing's shrewd and resourceful friends. These eighteen prison guards are undoubtedly the largest force in Class 1 of the first year.

Tang Wulin had already planned ahead and decisively said, "Today, there are three class officers to compete for, so Zhao Xuanzhen, Gu Yue, and Ye Xinglan will most likely join forces to win the position. Let's assume we are facing all three of them at the same time."

You probably don't know this, but Zhao Xuanzhen's control over multiple elements surpasses Gu Yue's. Luo Guixing, your spatial element will be doubly countered by both Zhao Xuanzhen and Gu Yue, so you and Xie Xie should lead one offensive and one defensive character to surround and defeat Ye Xinglan.

The Dark Demon Scythe excels in close combat, but it's unsuitable for close battles against Soul Masters with freakish physical strength like Zhao Xuanzhen. Gu Yue is not good at close combat, and Elementalists primarily rely on ranged attacks.

Xu Yucheng and Zheng Yiran, along with three others, tied up Gu Yue. The Dark Demon Scythe, combined with the Jade Phosphorous Serpent King Poison, was enough to at least hold him off for a while.

Zhao Xuanzhen is in my hands, along with Wu Siduo, Yang Nianxia, ​​and Xu Xiaoyan. We will lead the rest of the team to fight him.

I'll control the field with the Golden-Veined Blue Silver Grass, Yang Nianxia will lead the team to the front, and Wu Siduo will launch surprise attacks at any time... Xiao Yan, you are the key to our victory; you must time the activation of the Star Wheel Ice Staff perfectly!"

"Yes, I promise to complete the mission!"

Xu Xiaoyan's pretty face flushed red, feeling a great sense of responsibility!

"Ryuji, you are our backup, providing all kinds of buns for the three teams."

"Okay...okay..."

Xu Lizhi stared at the three dark shadows in the distance, his voice trembling uncontrollably: "They're here... Sister Xinglan is here, Sister Xinglan..."

His entire body was trembling with fat; this was the first time he had ever been an enemy of Ye Xinglan!

Zhao Xuanzhen's clothes fluttered in the wind, a faint smile playing on her lips as she glanced at the eighteen elite freshmen who had gathered together.

"That's great, it saves me the time of searching one by one."

"Proceed according to plan, move out!"

Tang Wulin roared, and the eighteen people immediately split into three teams and charged toward the designated enemy!

"Don't help me, I'll take care of the opponent myself."

Ye Xinglan gripped the Star God Sword tightly, her eyes resolute, her sword intent surging to the heavens!

"Xuanzhen, separate the battlefield!" Gu Yue also shared this idea!

“The character '艮' means a solid wall.”

Zhao Xuanzhen's eyes turned into a mysterious deep blue, and a stone wall suddenly rose from the ground. Black and white energy flowed through the rocks, like a giant dragon breaking through the earth and cutting through three battlefields. Someone was caught off guard and crashed into the stone wall, and his arm bone was shattered by the shock!

Standing atop the highest stone wall, Zhao Xuanzhen looked down at his tiny opponent below. The moonlight cast long shadows behind him, enveloping the entire forest in a chilling pressure.

"In the face of absolute power, alliances are as utterly exposed as treacherous tricks."

"Come at me, all of you who dare challenge me!"

Chapter 64 The Golden Dragon Head and the Netherworld White Tiger: I couldn't get you to use your full strength, what a sorry sight! (4K)

"I have a red bean bun!"

The dark forest was as black as ink, but the moonlight shone through, and the figure standing on the stone wall was imposing and awe-inspiring. The first-year geniuses were stunned for a moment, and the one who took the first action was Xu Lizhi with bloodshot eyes.

Xu Lizhi was separated from the main battlefield by the stone wall, and together with Tang Wulin, Wu Siduo and others, he besieged Zhao Xuanzhen.

For three years, he watched helplessly as Ye Xinglan gradually distanced herself from him and instead drew closer to Zhao Xuanzhen. The helplessness and heart-wrenching pain tormented Xu Lizhi's heart.

Xu Lizhi was overjoyed to finally have the chance to defeat Zhao Xuanzhen, even if it meant just being a support!

A series of plump, white red bean buns were precisely tossed into the hands of his teammates. Xu Lizhi's third soul skill, Bloodthirsty Red Bean Buns, increases soul power by 20% and physical strength by 30% to 50%. The amplification effect is best for strength-type/fierce soul masters, lasting for three minutes. After the bloodthirst ends, the user will be weakened for a period of time.

"Brothers, rush with me!"

Yang Nianxia swallowed the red bean bun in one gulp, and the power of bloodlust instantly plunged her into a frenzied state, filling her entire body with power.

With the spirit possession and the third spirit ring erupting simultaneously, Yang Nianxia's body swelled to over two meters tall, her skin covered with a layer of cold, hard, metallic dark gold hair that reflected the silver moonlight falling from the sky.

Dark Gold Bear, a degenerate form of the super soul beast Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear, possesses almost all of the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear's physical abilities except for its pair of earth-shattering claws!

Zhao Xuanzhen leaped down, a strand of black hair on his forehead turning pale as his body plummeted like a meteor! Every step Yang Nianxia took cracked the ground as he roared and leaped into the air, his second soul ring igniting, his fists flashing with dark golden light as he charged straight at the falling figure.

"Chance!"

Seeing Zhao Xuanzhen suspended in mid-air, Xu Xiaoyan's beautiful eyes suddenly lit up. She raised her ice staff high and softly chanted:

"Stars in the sky, twinkling brightly, forever shining, bringing peace to Chang'an!"

Star Wheel, grant me power!

The crystal at the top of the ice staff shone brightly, and starlight fell from the sky onto the ice staff. A ball of golden light spread out and transformed into a golden halo engraved with a six-pointed star pattern.

Surrounded by starlight, Xu Xiaoyan was no longer a delicate and weak ornament; an aura of sacred inviolability emanated from her, and the little girl clinging to his leg transformed into a noble and elegant figure.

With the Star Wheel Ice Staff pointing forward, a six-pointed golden halo floated out, enveloping Zhao Xuanzhen in stellar power. Xu Xiaoyan had been diligently practicing the timing of the Star Wheel's release, and she held Zhao Xuanzhen in absolute respect. This moment was precisely the second before his direct confrontation with Yang Nianxia, ​​also the absolute minimum for the Star Wheel to be activated!

"Well done!"

Yang Nianxia caught a glimpse of the approaching star wheel out of the corner of her eye and couldn't help but shout with delight. Her reputation for absolute power was far-reaching, and anyone would be controlled by the starlight for a second. The legendary achievement of defeating the number one on the list of young geniuses was within reach!

Even in a multi-person coordinated battle, as long as Zhao Xuanzhen can be defeated, Dark Bear Yang Nianxia will definitely be on the list when the list of young geniuses is updated next time. This is the value of defeating the number one genius on the continent!

However, the beautiful fantasy came to an end. An unexpected event occurred that surprised Yang Nianxia, ​​Xu Xiaoyan, Xu Lizhi, Tang Wulin, and Wu Siduo who was hiding in the shadows. The Star Wheel fell on Zhao Xuanzhen without any hindrance. It was absolutely true, but it failed for the first time ever!

The starlight served as a backdrop, highlighting his expressionless, handsome face. He raised his right arm slightly, his sleeves billowing like clouds, and his palm suddenly taut like iron, precisely blocking Yang Nianxia's all-out Dark Gold Fist of the Demon!

"Beng Jin · Zhen Zhang" (Breaking Force · Shaking Palm).

Yang Nianxia's eyes widened in horror. Only when the two truly clashed did he understand the meaning of a world of difference. The difference in soul power between a Soul Venerable and a Soul Master was a whole level, an absolute crushing of strength, and the mysterious force of shock and sharpness contained in Zhao Xuanzhen's palm easily tore apart the Dark Gold Bear's defense!

"boom--"

Her dark golden fur flew everywhere, and the force of her palm strike flowed into her internal organs through her arms. Yang Nianxia was sent flying backward like a kite with a broken string. Her arms were torn apart inch by inch, and blood trailed in a scarlet arc.

The massive body crashed to the ground, creating a huge crater. Yang Nianxia curled up, convulsing uncontrollably, the blood seeping out staining the surrounding Blue Silver Grass red. A hoarse murmur escaped her throat:

"You guys tricked me..."

After saying that, the dark bear suddenly stopped moving, turned into a beam of white light and disappeared, exiting the virtual space of the martial arts arena.

"Xiao Yan, what happened?"

Tang Wulin asked urgently, "It's absolutely true that this was their ultimate trump card to defeat Zhao Xuanzhen, but who would have thought it wouldn't even make a ripple!"

"He...he also controls the power of the stars!" Xu Xiaoyan exclaimed in disbelief.

It's impossible for this to be absolutely true. There's only one possibility: the other party also possesses the Star Power attribute, and its quality is even higher than that of the Star Wheel Ice Staff!

At this moment, Zhao Xuanzhen had already entered the sheepfold like a tiger, wiping out these first-year students who dared to try to defeat him.

If the absolute truth were true and effective for him, Zhao Xuanzhen would not have allowed Xu Xiaoyan to stand on the opposite side. In fact, he had tried to invite her to join the Spirit Pagoda three years ago and become her teammate in the future.

Although the Heavenly Plate collapsed due to absorbing too much star power, the Nine Luminaries still faintly cast a protective glow. To think that one could control the Master of Qimen with the absolute power of the stars is nothing short of wishful thinking.

A night of dazzling stars is a rare occurrence, happening only once every ten thousand years. Therefore, the Celestial Disc will not unleash its unparalleled power again, and its restoration is not an urgent task. Zhao Xuanzhen was not in a hurry; he simply used his connections with the Spirit Transmission Tower to reach an agreement with an academy in advance to borrow the Star Gazing Platform in the future.
