Fu Hua Returns to the Team

A mile away from Spirit City, in a rugged mountain ravine, Fu Hua looked at his hands and the white halo surrounding him with a strange expression.

The halo was dazzling, and a small pattern appeared in the inner ring, like a Yin Yang symbol, flowing around it and exuding an ancient aura, seemingly capable of suppressing all the Source Universe.

If Heavy Sword Has No Edge increases the power of a weapon, then this pair of Yin Yang fish is a comprehensive boost to a person, somewhat like Qian Renxue's Angel Domain.

While increasing their own strength, they infinitely reduce the enemy's strength.

This white halo caused Fu Hua's other five Soul Rings to appear, making it the sixth one. She had unknowingly entered the Soul King realm.

Moreover, the formation of this Soul Ring was very mysterious. It appeared inexplicably while Fu Hua was on her way, without any fluctuation of Soul Power or surge of Honkai Energy. It seemed to have always existed there.

But before that, she could clearly sense that she originally only had five Soul Rings, so how did this sixth Soul Ring come about?

Without any apparent reason, Fu Hua probed her soul into it, and in just a moment, she was ejected by the power within. But in that very instant, she saw the scene of the beginning of the primordial world.

Heaven and earth transformed into Yin and Yang, the four seasons into the five elements, and the giant cleaved the entire chaos, from which the Eight Trigrams were born.

After 100,000 years of evolution, it eventually became the Taixu Realm. Initially, it had no name, but it was only after Fu Hua arrived that it acquired its own name.

The Taixu Realm, or even the Tai Xu Domain

The name of her Sixth Soul Ring echoed in her heart. It was Soul Ring born from the Taixu Realm. No wonder the Soul Ring was generating on its own even though she hadn't gathered any power.

At the same time, earth-shaking changes were taking place within the Taixu Realm. The sky was high and distant, the mountains were long and winding, and oceans began to surround the jungles. Gradually, more islands appeared, on which spirit beasts roamed freely.

Sea creatures surge and crash in the ocean, creating waves, while birds soar through the sky, offering a panoramic view of the magnificent landscape.

Within Taixu Mountain, beside the Fuyun Temple, a steep cliff, with its boulders twisting and turning, gradually forms another high ground, from which one can climb to gaze into the distance. In the Zhishui Lake, the water boils, three-colored divine light flashes, and the waterfall cascades back, its destination unknown.

Spiritual energy began to take shape, the primordial chaos settled, and everything began to become clear. The spirit beasts benefited from this, with layers of breakthrough aura emanating from them, and the roars of beasts echoed throughout the jungle.

The Taixu Realm seems to have entered a new phase.

The ancient trees, still standing not far from Taixu Mountain, emit a soft glow, making the deep tree hollows seem less frightening.

Overflowing with seven-colored light

In the Douluo Continent, Fu Hua, who was sitting in the mountain stream, opened his eyes, exhaled a breath of turbid air, and his aura returned to tranquility. The six Soul Ring around him, rising and falling, exuded a strong sense of presence.

Fu Hua, however, began to worry about this.

Keep in mind that the highest level in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament is only around level 55, and now she's at level 60, which seems to be telling them that she's bullying a child. (Wasn't that the case from the beginning?)

The sixth Soul Skill is called the Tai Xu Domain. It is a domain-like skill. When it is first released, it has a three-second anti-air time. After three seconds, it can only reduce the opponent's strength by 30%, while increasing its own strength by 30%.

While seemingly lacking any powerful abilities, she possesses a hidden skill: when the Tai Xu Domain only covers Fu Hua herself, it can isolate her aura and life force, and even disguise her. However, this domain must be maintained indefinitely.

This is the explanation that automatically appeared in Fu Hua's mind after this Soul Skill appeared. She hadn't paid much attention to it before, but now it seems to have a use.

The Sixth Soul Ring unfolds, the Soul Skill is activated, and the Tai Xu Domain.

A thin layer of light shield appeared, slowly shrinking from an initial radius of five meters to the current three meters. The radius was still shrinking, and controlling the energy of the Tai Xu Domain was much more difficult than Fu Hua had imagined.

It took her a whole day to shrink the radius from five meters to three meters. To prevent outsiders from seeing her current state, she had to shrink the domain to be close to her skin.

To this end, she worked day and night to control the energy, with remarkable results. Fu Hua's control over power was already subtle, and after a day and a night, she had become very familiar with the energy transformation of the Tai Xu Domain.

At this moment, the domain had shrunk to a radius of about one meter, and the rate of shrinkage was still accelerating. Presumably, by the morning of the next day, she would be able to completely cover her skin with the domain.

Time flowed slowly, and the finals continued. The withdrawal of the Blazing Fire Academy did not cause any discussion, but when the participating academies saw that Blazing Fire Academy's Huo Wu, Huo Wushuang, and others were actually at the Godwind Academy, they began to express their dissatisfaction.

However, the Spirit Hall's domineering attitude rendered their protests ineffective. The first round ended, and the second round began. Shrek Academy naturally received a bye, and the three seeded teams joined the competition.

As expected, they qualified for the top ten. Four days later, the third round began, and Shrek Academy inevitably faced their first opponent.

Star Luo Royal Academy

A Soul Grandmaster team composed of members of the Star Luo Imperial Family. The captain is Dai Weisi, Martial Soul Evil Eye White Tiger and he is a level 48 Soul Ancestor Master. The vice captain Zhu Zhuyun, Martial Soul Hell Spirit Cat and he is a level 47 Soul Ancestor.

That's right, their Martial Soul are the same as Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing's, because they are originally members of the same family.

Dai Weisi and Dai Mubai are both princes of the Star Luo Empire, while Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing are from a noble family in the Star Luo Empire, and there has always been a history of marriage alliances between them.

These four were the most outstanding disciples in the family, but unfortunately, the family did not need a second person to inherit the family business, which led to the cruel elimination process.

As the second sons Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing became stepping stones for the eldest son. If they won, they could become the heirs of the family, but if they failed, they would lose their lives.

Before coming to Shrek, they had already prepared themselves for failure before the age of twenty-five, but after seeing Tang San and Fu Hua, this idea completely changed.

With Fu Hua's formidable strength and Tang San's unpredictable wisdom, as long as either of them is in the Shrek Team, they would have no problem even facing the core team of the Spirit Hall.

But now...

"Is it too late?"

With the match about to begin, Fu Hua still hadn't appeared, and Tang San felt slightly disappointed. He was looking forward to the gathering of the Shrek Eight Monsters, and even more so, he wanted to show the newly revamped Shrek Seven Monsters to Fu Hua.

They are a team, and even more so, the best of partners. What happened back then remains a shadow in Tang San's heart. Only Fu Hua's return can completely erase it; otherwise, it will become a demon in his heart.

Dai Mubai's eyes narrowed with anger, while Zhu Zhuqing bit her lower lip. The Shrek Seven Devils were in a slump; they had already lost their momentum before the competition even started.

On the stage, the Star Luo Royal Team had already taken the stage, and impatient voices were already heard from the audience, who were now just waiting for them.

"What's going on? Why isn't the Shrek Team on the field yet?"

"Ha! Are you scared?"

"Shut up. Even if you're scared, you're still better than me," Huo Wu retorted impatiently.

The other participating colleges were all discussing the matter, and the judges on the stage had already begun to urge them on.

"Shrek Team, please come to the stage as soon as possible, otherwise it will be considered a forfeit."

In the Star Luo Royal Team, Dai Weisi, who was in charge, and Zhu Zhuyun, who was behind him, both had sarcastic expressions on their faces and made no attempt to hide their voices, which echoed across the competition stage.

"Dai Mubai, my good brother, I never thought you would actually make it to the finals. But what's wrong with you now? You're like a coward hiding in a turtle. I finally gave you a chance to challenge me face-to-face, but you're acting like a coward."

Dai Weisi had long, flowing golden hair that cascaded down his back. He had a languid expression on his face and his eyes shone with a purple light, but they were not double pupils. His appearance was at least seven-tenths similar to Dai Mubai's, except that he was a few points taller than Dai Mubai.

"Zhuqing, if I remember correctly, you're not even fifteen yet! You've actually done quite well to get this far. However, this is where things end for you two."

Zhu Zhuyun is tall, almost as tall as Dai Weisi, with an extremely voluptuous figure and skin as white as mutton fat jade. Compared to Zhu Zhuqing, she lacks that coldness.

Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing glared at each other but remained silent. The Shrek Seven Devils looked furious, wishing they could just blast them to pieces.

Dai Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun spoke without any pretense, their voices so loud that all the participating academies could hear them, shocking the academies below who had previously fought against Shrek Academy.

Not even fifteen years old! Yes! From the beginning until now, they hadn't thought about how old the Shrek group was. That voluptuous girl was not even fifteen years old, so what about the others?

The thought alone filled them with dread. If they had initially harbored a competitive spirit, now all they felt was bitterness.

Shrek's future is brighter than theirs!

"Shrek Team, please come to the stage, otherwise..." the referee urged again.

But this was interrupted by an apologetic male voice. From a distance, Flender was seen running towards them, his face flushed with excitement, but his expression conveyed apology.

"I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry! We'll go up on stage now, please allow me to give these disobedient brats a good talking-to."

Flender, looking apologetic, led the Shrek Seven Devils into the shadows, blocking everyone's view before facing them with a smug smile.

"Look, who's back!"

Steady footsteps sounded behind them. Jingwei, one of the Shrek Seven Monsters, brightened up and looked behind Flender, where a figure was slowly walking towards them.

Long, grayish-brown hair, a travel-worn dark leather jacket, a meticulous expression, and sky-blue eyes with a hint of apology in them.

"Sorry I'm late!"

Her voice was clear and crisp, yet it was a voice familiar to the Shrek Seven Monsters. The Shrek Seven Monsters' eyes lit up, just like Jingwei's, and they all looked behind Flender.

That is...

Fu Hua!

On the final stage, Shrek's group of eight finally took to the stage. Their completely new and unfamiliar faces caused the other participating academies to gasp in surprise.

Among the eight people, Ning Rongrong and Fu Hua were the most unfamiliar faces. However, judging from Fu Hua's position, her status was no less than Tang San's, which made Huo Wu's eyes narrow.

The face that resembled Jingwei's startled her. She thought to herself that this person must be the Crimson Kite that Jingwei had mentioned. However, when she saw Fu Hua's position, Huo Wu felt only bitterness.

How could she be weak when she could stand beside Tang San? Her gaze shifted to the Shrek audience seats again, where Jingwei, who had been nowhere to be seen, suddenly appeared, her crimson eyes filled with excitement.

Huo Wu was stunned, her thoughts churning, and suddenly she realized...

So, they've been waiting for her all along. No wonder, no wonder.

Huo Wu's face showed bitterness. Shrek Academy's true hidden trump card was none other than Crimson Kite.

"What's wrong, Xiao Wu?" Huo Wushuang asked.

"Fine"

Although the other participants from the academies did not experience the same Huo Wu turmoil as Huo Wu, their feelings were largely the same, and their expressions also became serious.

The referee nodded, looked at both teams' players, and walked to the center.

"The match is ready. You may release your Martial Soul. The rules remain the same: the loser will be eliminated, and the winner will advance to the top six. Shrek Advanced Soul Master Academy team versus Star Luo Empire Royal Advanced Soul Master Academy, get set—"
