Another Battle

Fu Hua's second clash with the four Douluo ended with Yu Long's death.

The scene fell silent again. The remaining three dared not move and turned their gazes toward Qian Daoliu on the high platform, but he still showed no emotion.

The three of them couldn't figure it out.

Five positions away from Qian Daoliu, Ning Fengzhi clicked his tongue in amazement, and even the Sword Douluo Chen Xin in front of him couldn't help but frequently glance at Fu Hua.

She is so outstanding that no one in the world can match her.

But Chen Xin shook his head again; being too outstanding is also a sin.

A tree that stands out on the peak will surely be felled by the wind.

Fu Hua is reserved enough, but there are countless greedy people. Reservation is not enough; she also needs sufficient strength.

On the other side, the Shrek group, who had already left Spirit City, encountered a powerful obstacle. Standing in front of them was a team composed of five Soul Douluo and more than a dozen Spirit Saint.

Their uniforms were neat and uniform; they were all members of the enforcement team from the Spirit Hall's Elder's Hall, and their robes bore the emblem of Six-winged Angel.

The entire group exuded a chilling aura, completely surrounding Shrek Academy, with the five Soul Douluo at the head keeping a close eye on Flender and Liu Erlong.

As for the Master, he was surrounded by the Shrek Seven Devils and was on high alert.

The leader of the Soul Douluo suddenly spoke.

"The Grand Elder of the Elder's Hall cordially invites everyone to the Spirit Hall for a discussion."

His voice was completely flat, as if he were facing ants that could be easily killed; he didn't take Flender and the others seriously at all.

Flender's expression turned serious. He exchanged glances with Liu Erlong beside him, then looked at the Master again. The Master's eyes were equally serious, and he nodded silently.

Seeing this, Flender took a light step, his heel stepping back, and the distance between him and the Master gradually shortened, forming an equilateral triangle between the three of them.

Flender, the horn of flight; Liu Erlong, the horn of war; Yu Xiaogang, the Wisdom Horn.

The Golden Iron Triangle has reappeared in the world.

Like a sacred dragon cast from gold, it roars to the sky, with two horns on its head, two wings on its back, four powerful limbs like pillars beneath its body, and a tail like a snake whip.

With a flap of its wings, a fierce wind surged forth.

Golden Sacred Dragon

The Golden Sacred Dragon, formed by combining Master's Martial Soul Luo Sanpao as its main body with Flender's wings and Liu Erlong's Fire Dragon, possesses an aura that rivals that of Titled Douluo.

The five Soul Douluo' expressions changed, and their feet created afterimages as they tried to stop them, but it was too late.

Golden Sacred Dragon's Might, Revealed

A dragon's roar shook the Source Universe, causing the dozen or so Spirit Saint surrounding them to feel dizzy.

Just then, each of the Shrek Seven Devils held Godly Zhuge Crossbow, and the trigger clicked in unison.

Swoosh!...

Seven arrows, made of black iron, shot out, heading straight for the dozen or so Spirit Saint.

The arrow pierced through the defenses, and in an instant, five Spirit Saints were shot through without any warning, and were killed instantly.

The Spirit Hall enforcement team lost five members in an instant.

"Damn it, is the intelligence wrong? How come everyone at the Shrek Academy is a bunch of monsters?" one of the Soul Douluo said with a grim expression.

They haven't even done anything yet! And they've already lost five Spirit Saints. Ugh, utterly uglier. Their luck is just too bad.

Even so, a mission is a mission, and they still have to carry it out.

Bring everyone from the Shrek Academy before the Grand Elder.

This was their mission, seemingly simple, yet it turned out to be incredibly difficult, and...

The gaze shifted, and suddenly a figure appeared within the Shrek Academy. His hair was slightly gray, and his eyes were emerald green—it was none other than the Poison Douluo, Dugu Bo.

The appearance of a titled Douluo instantly overturned their plans. No matter how many Soul Douluo and Spirit Saint they had, they wouldn't be able to defeat a single Titled Douluo.

The five Soul Douluo began to have second thoughts.

Just then, another figure appeared behind them, silently, as if he had been there all along.

This was the black-robed Douluo who had been dismissed by Qian Daoliu.

At this moment, he stepped out from behind the five Soul Douluos and faced Poison Douluo Dugu Bo directly. The balance of power shifted again, with a slight tendency to tilt in favor of the Spirit Hall.

The fight between two Titled Douluo was beyond the reach of lowly Soul Master like them, who were not even Soul King yet. At this moment, they could only watch as the two rushed out and disappeared into the jungle.

Fifteen Spirit Saint surrounded Shrek Academy, while the five Soul Douluo at the forefront confronted the Golden Iron Triangle. Despite being outnumbered by three, they were still at a disadvantage.

However, Tang San and his companions found themselves in increasingly dangerous situations. After only a few exchanges, Dai Mubai and the others were all injured, with blood trickling from their mouths and their breathing becoming weak.

Tang San's Soul Power also trembled, and he took several steps back before he could stand still.

Only now did Tang San truly realize the immense gap between him and Fu Hua. Fu Hua could single-handedly fight against four Titled Douluo, while he couldn't even defeat a Spirit Saint.

Anxious

Seeing his companions get injured one after another, he felt a wave of despair. It was truly as if fate had decreed his demise!

There are still so many things left undone, so many things left unsaid.

Is the revival of the Tang Sect truly going to end in their own hands?

Looking back at Xiao Wu, who had been following closely beside him, Tang San's lips curled into a bitter smile.

He still had a lot to say to Xiao Wu.

The warmth of her body reached Tang San's hand, and his heart was instantly filled with joy. He realized how deeply he loved her.

"Xiao Wu, I'm sorry."

Xiao Wu shook her head.

No, whatever the future holds, we will face it together.

Their interlocked hands tightened again, as if glued together, becoming inseparable.

We share happiness and hardship; though we may not be born at the same time, we will be buried together.

Just as Shrek Academy and his group were prepared to die, another powerful aura swept in, instantly forcing back the Spirit Saint who were attacking from all sides, and even causing them to vomit blood.

A heavy, vast aura

It had a familiar feeling to Tang San, that was...

Clear Sky Hammer

A massive black and gold hammer descended from the sky, its heavy aura instantly causing the air pressure to dissipate.

Just one hammer blow

Within the hammer's range, all Spirit Saint and Soul Douluo were smashed into mincemeat.

Clear Sky Douluo Descends

Spirit City, in the Pope's Palace

The two sides remained locked in a stalemate. This time, Chrysanthemum, Ghost, Stingray Douluo dared not make any rash moves, completely unable to figure out Fu Hua's attack patterns, which gave them a headache.

Once upon a time, these Titled Douluo could roam freely across the continent, but now they have to act according to the changing circumstances.

It's so frustrating, so incredibly frustrating.

But what can you do if you feel frustrated? You have to keep it to yourself.

Kiku and Oni stared at each other, the distance between them growing ever closer.

Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo are always inseparable when they go out. When you see a Chrysanthemum Douluo appear in front of you, your first thought is not to fight, but how to escape.

Because of his existence, which was accompanied by Ghost Douluo, the two were not brothers, but they were as close as brothers. When they were together, they could also unleash a powerful Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

Two-level static domain

People or objects within this area will be frozen in time and space. The person who activates the area will be unable to attack, and those enveloped by the area will also be unable to make any moves.

This is the true meaning of time-space freeze.

Therefore, they always appear in pairs, accompanied by some subordinates.

After all, if you control the enemy and can't attack them yourself, then this control is meaningless.

But things are different now. They have three Titled Douluo here. He and Ghost Douluo will Martial Soul Fusion to activate the Two Poles Stillness Domain, and then the Stingray Douluo will attack.

I refuse to believe that this won't kill Fu Hua.

It's no longer a matter of whether or not they care about the face of Titled Douluo; the important thing is to complete the mission properly. Otherwise, they still won't get any favors from Qian Daoliu.

Therefore, in order to kill a mere Soul King, they no longer cared whether it was a case of the strong bullying the weak or the many defeating the few.

Fu Hua observed all the changes in the arena. Although her facial expression did not change much, her sharp eyebrows still revealed that she was on guard.

Although powerful Martial Soul Fusion Skill rarely appear after reaching the level of Titled Douluo in the nineties, it cannot be guaranteed that they will not appear. When Fu Hua saw Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo approaching each other, she was already on high alert.

It's better to believe it exists than to believe it doesn't.

Fu Hua wouldn't believe such a stroke of luck.

They had only been fighting for five minutes when they lost a Douluo- level comrade, which forced them to take the battle seriously, especially in front of Qian Daoliu.

Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo began to converge, Stingray Douluo, naturally, wouldn't be idle; his body began to swell, and he took a deep breath.

That one breath caused his body to swell up a full size.

Martial Soul Possession, Pufferfish

Its round surface is covered with countless sharp barbs, which are made visible by the expansion of its entire body. If someone with trypophobia saw it, they probably wouldn't even need to fight; they would just faint on the spot.

A gale arose, forming a tornado in front of the Stingray Douluo, the wind howling and seemingly threatening to engulf Fu Hua's body.

Fu Hua planted her feet firmly on the ground, as if rooted to the earth, thus avoiding the signs of being sucked into the tornado. Her long, gray hair fluttered in the wind, the Fire Feather Blazing Plume that bound it were nowhere to be seen, and her long hair drifted freely.

A strange light flashed in his sky-blue eyes, but it vanished in an instant, as if nothing had happened.

Lower your center of gravity and firmly plant your feet in a horse stance.

Starting position

Speaking of wind, there is wind formed in nature, which is a natural phenomenon caused by the movement of air. The alternation of hot and cold air currents forms wind.

There is another type of wind, an unnatural phenomenon.

The wind generated by human force can be a gentle breeze, a gale, or a tornado.

Just like the wind stirred up by the Stingray Douluo, this is about using momentum to influence things.

Fu Hua was more familiar with this situation, because although every move she made seemed calm and even, the moment she made a move, it would unleash a thunderous and surging aura.

This is the power of a short strike.

The essence of "inch power" lies in instantaneous explosiveness, delivering a simple, agile, powerful, and fierce strike within the shortest distance, penetrating the surface and striking the interior.

This is the inch punch technique.

However, after arriving on this continent, every time he unleashed the Inch Punch Technique, it seemed to cause a change in the great forces of heaven and earth, resonating with the Great Dao, and unleashing an even more terrifying attack.

Under normal circumstances, she would not use it easily.

It's either a matter of skillful application of force, or overwhelming the opponent with superior Soul Power.

In her attack on Yu Long, she only used two-tenths of her strength to instantly take away one of his arms, even though he was Titled Douluo and his body had been significantly strengthened.

If we consider the level of a peak Soul Master, such as the Strength Clan, their Soul Power bonus is a bonus to Strength.

Fu Hua would need to use four-tenths of her strength to cripple an opponent's arm, while the Defense Clan would need seven-tenths. Of course, both of them would need to be at the Titled Douluo level.

On one hand, it's due to the Soul Ring and attribute bonuses of those ultimate Soul Master; on the other hand, it's also because Fu Hua's Soul Power is insufficient.

This continent is, after all Douluo Continent, and she still needs to follow the rules of this world. Rather than saying that her strength is sealed by herself, it would be more accurate to say that it is restricted by the rules of this continent.

Facing the attack from the Stingray Douluo, Fu Hua still used a simple starting stance.

P. S.: I don't even know what to say anymore. Why do I feel so down today?
