Soul Tool Missile Assassination! Fame Spreads Across Star Luo Continent!
"We've lost!"
Someone whispered a few words in the Monster Academy's rest area. The voice wasn't loud, but it clearly reached the ears of the people around them.
Everyone looked down at the silent spectators in the stadium.
Hua Lantang remained kneeling in the center of the arena, the jet-black light slowly dissipating.
He tried to stand up, but his knees barely left the ground before he fell back down.
"Medical team! Come quick!"
"Check if the athletes are injured!"
Many medical Soul Master came down from the scene and carried Hua Lantang onto a stretcher, rushing him to a healing Soul Master to check his injuries.
Is the difference really that big?
Tiger King Dai Yueyan's voice came from the rest area.
He had seen it clearly just now; Hua Lantang had already used his strongest methods.
But in front of Bai Yuan, those attacks were disintegrated before they even truly touched his boundaries.
Fox King Su Mu stood beside him without saying a word.
His gaze remained fixed on Bai Yuan's wing, which was retracting.
"This power is terrifying."
"I wonder if my Nine-Tailed Fox Soul Skill can withstand this power?"
Long Yue stood at the back, still quietly watching the center of the field, his expression unchanged.
But when he watched Bai Yuan retract his sword, he paused for a moment longer than before, and then the corners of his mouth turned up.
He's very strong, very good. Next time we'll see who's stronger!
It's this kind of opponent that excites me even more.
In the audience, the voices are flowing again at a different rhythm.
Someone shouted Bai Yuan's name, their voice filled with a surging excitement;
Most of the sounds remained quietly where they belonged.
On the platform, Emperor Dai Tianling's gaze remained fixed on the center of the arena.
"Teacher, is the difference between us and the Shrek disciples really that great?"
"Still haven't caught up?"
"Is Long Yue confident in his fight?"
En Ci sat quietly beside him without saying a word.
I simply watched quietly as the figure walked back into the passage.
Dai Yun'er sat at the edge of the rest area, her gaze following Bai Yuan's retreating figure as he walked back into the passage.
He did not disappoint her; she could see clearly that Hua Lantang had not even truly touched his real strength in front of him.
She deliberately turned her head to look in Long Yue's direction:
"You can't possibly lose to all of you, can you?"
Long Yue didn't speak, but his slightly narrowed eyes and somber expression...
This has already explained some of the issues.
He seemed to be pondering whether he could withstand this attack if he were in his shoes!
In a corner of the rest area, several of the lower-ranked superstars had already turned their attention away.
They had witnessed the entire battle of Hua Lantang, and also seen the speed and force of the golden-red light that fell.
The gap between them and Hua Lantang wasn't that big, since he couldn't even withstand the second move.
Therefore, the outcome would not be any different if they played.
The outcome was decided; the referee announced the result of the battle.
The individual competitions for everyone else are in the afternoon.
Gu Yuena happened to be in the last individual match of the day.
A single elemental ball instantly killed the opponent's Four-Ring Soul Ancestor.
Why don't they need to fight against top players?
What kind of fortune is this?
I feel like I've been set up!
They're fighting against elite opponents!
The competition ended in the afternoon.
Gu Yuena and Bai Yuan returned to the hotel entrance.
Do you remember what I wanted to tell you?
"Go ahead, I'm listening!"
Gu Yuena was just about to speak.
Something's not right!
Bai Yuan stopped at this moment, his gaze passing over her shoulder and landing in the shadows of the side corridor of the hotel lobby.
"What's wrong?"
"Something's not right!"
She lowered her voice and glanced in the direction he was looking.
Bai Yuan didn't answer, but simply let go of her hand and turned to walk towards the side corridor.
Gu Yuena stood still, watching him walk to the shadow of the pillar, bend down and lift up a thin figure.
The man was dressed in inconspicuous gray-brown clothes and had clearly been squatting in the corner for a long time, and he was squatting quite professionally.
When Bai Yuan lifted him up from the ground, the man didn't even have time to utter a sound.
He has completely lost consciousness.
Who is it?
Gu Yuena walked over and glanced down at the figure on the ground.
Bai Yuan released his grip, letting the person lean softly against the wall.
"They've been following us since we left the hotel. They've been following us for at least a whole day."
Gu Yuena's gaze lingered on that person's face for a moment:
"Zhang Geyang's men?"
"Uncertain."
Bai Yuan straightened up.
"He's too weak; Zhang Geyang wouldn't send someone of that caliber to keep an eye on us."
He glanced at the end of the corridor. "It could be spies planted by the Qiangu Family, or it could be other forces sneaking in during the large number of people at the tournament."
He paused.
"But it doesn't matter. Knocking one out means no one will come to fill in for a while."
What were you trying to say?
Distracted by his interruption, Gu Yuena hesitated, her prepared words trailing off. "... I forgot."
She looked away.
We'll talk about it later.
Just as Bai Yuan released the gray-clad man, another figure flashed out from the other end of the side corridor.
The man's movements weren't particularly stealthy, but he clearly had no intention of dodging; he raised his hands the instant Bai Yuan turned around.
"Don't lay a hand on us, we're on the same side!"
I am Shrek!
Bai Yuan looked at him but didn't reply immediately.
"The person you just attacked was a member of the Evil Soul Master Resistance Organization."
"I've been following him for a long time, but I never expected them to be so audacious as to attack a hotel this time."
The man approached quickly, lowering his voice.
"They're going to detonate a bomb at the hotel tonight."
"Your online presence is enormous. After defeating the Wolf King, your name has spread throughout the entire Star Luo Continent."
"Killing you is more effective than killing a hundred ordinary people."
He had barely finished speaking when a hurried sound came from the Soul Tool at his side.
"Found them! All the soul-guided bombs have been found!"
Immediately afterwards, a muffled rumble came from outside the hotel.
The ground trembled slightly, as if something had hit it from the side.
Someone shouted from outside.
The sound traveled through the gap between the walls and the corridor, quickly dissipating into the air.
"Attack--"
The sound echoed in the corridor for a moment, then was drowned out by another, more urgent sound.
Bai Yuan didn't ask any more questions and turned to walk towards the hotel exit.
The figure followed behind him, still keeping a very low voice:
"The Evil Soul Master's target is you; they want to use your life to ignite the fuse between the two continents."
As Bai Yuan stepped out of the hotel, a blast of hot air hit him in the face.
Several Black-Grade Mecha were deploying in formation across the street.
His gaze swept over the Mecha, then he continued walking forward, neither quickening nor slowing his pace.
Since they had returned earlier, the other Shrek Academy teachers and others were still in the stadium exchanging ideas with various academies of the Star Luo Empire.
"You only have ten minutes to kill him."
"Otherwise, his reinforcements will be coming!"
"Clear!"
After the leader of the Evil Soul Master finished speaking...
Before the words were even finished, the deep, resonant hum of Fixed Soul Cannon Shell tore through the night sky.
A hysterical stream of light, accompanied by a deafening roar, erupted from the end of the street and hurtled straight toward the hotel entrance.
"Soul Cannon!!!"
"They're insane!!!"
"You'd better hide quickly, they've come with the determination to kill you."
