Chapter 141 The Champion
The light and smoke slowly dissipated.
Two deep craters appeared in the center of the field.
Between the pits, two figures stood back to back—Huang Jinxu, the Heavenly Fiend Douluo, and Cheng Gang, the Ironclad Douluo!
Their soul power surged, forming a solid barrier that blocked most of the destructive shockwave.
The expressions on the faces of the two titled Douluo were extremely solemn.
Huang Jinxu's icy voice resonated throughout the arena through his soul power, silencing all commotion: "To ensure the safety of both contestants, the referee must intervene."
Cheng Gang added in a deep voice, his voice like a heavy hammer striking everyone's heart: "The power of the final blows from both sides has reached the Soul Saint level, and their attributes are extreme, with astonishing destructive power."
If left unchecked, the energy turbulence and attribute annihilation generated by the clash could very well shatter the meridians, damage the martial spirits, and destroy the foundations of all three users!
His gaze swept over Ma Xiaotao, who was kneeling on one knee, exhausted, and Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen, who were barely able to stand due to their depleted soul power: "Therefore, it is determined that Ma Xiaotao, Xiao Hongchen, and Meng Hongchen are all incapacitated and must leave the arena immediately! The remaining team members, continue the match!"
"What?!" "What is this?!" "It's not over yet!" A huge uproar and protest erupted from the audience.
"Silence!" Dai Hao's authoritative voice, like a stabilizing force, silenced all the noise. "Your Majesty, please make your judgment!"
On the platform, Emperor Xu Jiawei slowly rose, his gaze sweeping over the three pale-faced but determined young men on the field, and solemnly said, "I agree with the two referees' judgment."
"Everyone on the field is a pillar of the future of the Soul Master world on our continent. If any one of them suffers damage to their foundation because of this battle, it will be a loss to the entire Soul Master world. Therefore, the verdict is hereby executed immediately!"
Ma Xiaotao took a deep breath, and with Dai Yueheng's help, slowly stood up. She glanced at the Hongchen siblings, who were also being helped up, with complicated emotions, and then turned and walked off the field with a slightly unsteady gait.
Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen had almost exhausted their last bit of strength and left the field with the support of their teammates.
On the field, Shrek's team still has Dai Yueheng and Xixi left; Sun and Moon's team has Xiao Xiafeng, Mika, and Lin Xi left.
On the sidelines, Ling Luochen, Yao Haoxuan, Chen Zifeng, and Gongyang Mo were quickly carried off the field.
Brigitte, who had been waiting, immediately stepped forward and fed them four emerald green pills.
The pills melted instantly upon entering their mouths, and the faint black aura swirling around the four people's faces quickly dissipated, their disordered breathing also calming down.
Seeing this scene from below the stage, Meng Hongchen couldn't help but show a look of astonishment on her pale face.
She was extremely confident in her Zhu Qingbing Toad Poison, thinking that it would at least force the other party to ask for the antidote. However, she did not expect that the other party had such a miraculous medicine, which neutralized the poison in an instant.
Her poison... was cured so easily?
The battle continues.
The match begins!
At the referee's signal, the five remaining players on the field moved instantly.
Soul power and fighting spirit ignited the air once again, but anyone could see that after the previous earth-shattering clash, neither side was in their best condition.
A fierce battle ensued.
Shrek Academy wins!
The referee's voice echoed throughout the stadium. A huge cheer erupted from the stands, but even more voices were filled with astonishment and disbelief.
No one expected that after both sides' core fighters were eliminated, Shrek Academy would win the crucial team battle thanks to Dai Yueheng's strong performance.
"Both players, please leave the arena for a rest. The one-on-one elimination matches will begin in half an hour!"
Inside the Shrek Academy rest area, the atmosphere was heavy yet filled with a weary but invigorating energy.
Bi Ji was taking care of Ling Luo Chen, Yao Hao Xuan, Chen Zi Feng, and Gong Yang Mo. The four of them were still pale and weak.
Ma Xiaotao sat cross-legged to the side, her eyes closed, her soul power fluctuating erratically, clearly indicating that the previous overexertion and the impact of the evil fire were no small matter.
Dai Yueheng and Xixi also took the time to adjust their breathing, but the fatigue between their brows was hard to hide.
Teacher Wang Yan's gaze swept over everyone, finally settling on the burning fighting spirit in the eyes of the reserve team members. He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "We won the team battle, but at a huge cost."
In the ensuing one-on-one elimination matches, the main players were almost too exhausted to continue.
The heavy responsibility of protecting Shrek's honor will now fall on your shoulders.
"Beibei, Tang Ya, Ning Tian, Huo Yutong, and He Caitou, it's up to you!"
"Yes, Teacher Wang!" the five members of the reserve team replied in unison, their voices firm.
"The second match is a one-on-one elimination tournament. Both players, please step onto the stage!"
The atmosphere was even more tense on the Sun & Moon team's side. Their defeat in the team battle left them with no way out.
The first to take the stage was Li Yan, who specialized in long-range firepower suppression.
"The match begins!"
Knowing his own situation well, Li Yan went all out from the start, unleashing his full power!
The heavy cannon on his shoulder and the rapid-fire soul guides on his arms roared simultaneously, and the crimson high-explosive soul guide shells and dense soul guide rays intertwined to form a destructive net of light, covering Beibei.
He wanted to use the most ferocious offensive to defeat the opponent in the shortest time and boost the team's morale!
Faced with the overwhelming soul-guided attacks, a flash of blue-purple lightning appeared in Bei Bei's eyes, and his third soul ring lit up first: Thunderous Fury!
A surge of violent lightning power instantly filled his body, dramatically increasing his speed and strength.
Instead of confronting the enemy head-on, he unleashed the Tang Clan's ultimate technique, the Ghost Shadow Step, to its fullest extent. His figure transformed into streaks of blue-purple lightning amidst the barrage of gunfire, narrowly evading the enemy while rapidly closing the distance.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Shells exploded behind him, the scorching heat waves searing his back. But Bei Bei's eyes remained calm as ice; Teacher Zi Yan's special training had long since accustomed him to fighting and dodging in all kinds of extreme environments.
As Bei Bei approached like a persistent leech, a fierce glint flashed in Li Yan's eyes. A soul tool resembling a heart-protecting mirror on his chest suddenly lit up, and a thick, crimson soul power shield instantly enveloped his entire body.
This is his level four invincible shield, with astonishing defensive power, enough to withstand a full-force attack from a powerful offensive Soul Master.
At the same time, the heavy cannon on his shoulder began to charge again, and a blinding light gathered. He wanted to take advantage of the moment when Beibei's attack shield was in a daze and deliver a fatal blow!
However, just as the light from his cannon reached its peak, Beibei moved.
Instead of using his dragon claws to bombard the shield, he flipped his wrist, and two unremarkable, jet-black iron bullets shot out silently, tracing strange arcs in the air, one after the other, heading straight for Li Yan's face and chest.
"Hidden weapon?" Li Yan sneered inwardly. How could a physical attack of this magnitude break through his soul-guiding shield? He ignored it all, and the cannon's muzzle was already blazing!
"Ding!"
The first bullet struck the shield with a crisp sound and shattered instantly.
However, at the very moment the caltrop shattered, the springs contained within it suddenly sprang open, and the mother caltrop hidden inside accelerated abruptly, striking the same point on the shield that had been hit by the caltrop with a speed several times greater than before and a bizarre rotation!
"puff--!"
With a soft sound, the seemingly impenetrable crimson soul power shield was drilled with a small hole by the tiny mother dantian, just like an eggshell!
The mother's gall bladder, its momentum undiminished, slammed into the soul tool in Li Yan's chest, much to his utter horror!
