That profound sense of powerlessness.
" Jun Yi, what were those two small balls that Tang San just released? They released so many fine needles in an instant, and they could even break through the protective shield of Soul Tool?"
Dugu Yan asked Jun Yi with some surprise. She even thought that Heaven Dou Second Team was going to win, but she didn't expect such an absurd reversal.
"That thing is called the King of Hell's Invitation, and its purpose is to break through protective qi," Jun Yi replied.
"So, you're saying the Soul Tool you gave me couldn't withstand that... what's it called 'gallbladder'?"
"It can withstand the attack. I've already observed it. The reason those needles were able to penetrate the soul-guided protective shield is mainly because the shield's level is low. Also, although it appears to completely surround the person, the protective shield formed by Soul Power still has Sisi gaps, which is why the needles were able to pass through."
" The Soul Tool I'm giving you is two levels higher than the soul tool shield; Tang San's Hidden Weapon are useless against you."
After Jun Yi finished explaining, Dugu Yan smiled and said, "So, does that mean I'm the biggest beneficiary of this competition?"
Jun Yi nodded slightly, "Yes, I'm one of the biggest beneficiaries."
" Sister Yanyan, let's go back."
Jun Yi wasn't really concerned about the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament. What he needed to do now was improve his own strength. To him, it didn't matter who won the championship, and he didn't care about the three Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone.
"Um."
Dugu Yan nodded, took Jun Yi's hand, and prepared to leave, while the audience also prepared to disperse.
But at that moment, Salas, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them, stood up, and waved to signal everyone not to leave.
Seeing this, Xue Ye was somewhat puzzled, wondering what Salas was thinking.
"Your Majesty, I heard the other day that Prince Jun possesses three Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring and two Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring. Since Prince Jun is here today, could you please show them to everyone?"
He then looked up at Jun Yi in the audience, smiled, and asked, " Prince Jun, I wonder if you could grant this old man this small request, so that everyone's trip today will have been worthwhile?"
In an instant, all the audience members followed Salas's gaze and spotted Jun Yi sitting in the first row.
Jun Yi frowned slightly. Salas was probably trying to confirm whether his Soul Ring matched the rumors, which was likely an arrangement made by the Spirit Hall.
He suddenly became the center of attention again. Jun Yi understood that this was a test, but it was also a good opportunity to enhance his reputation. Afterwards, Jun Yi gently released Dugu Yan's hand and said, " Sister Yanyan, then wait for me here for a moment."
"Okay." Dugu Yan nodded obediently.
Immediately afterward, Jun Yi stepped into the air and arrived on the arena. "Since Lord Salas wants to see my Soul Ring, then so be it. But isn't just showing the Soul Ring a bit too monotonous?"
"What does Prince Jun want to do to avoid monotony?" Salas asked Jun Yi with a slight smile.
"Some time ago, another academy came to challenge us, even threatening to force our Heaven Dou Royal Academy to give up its seeded spot, but I fought them off."
After Jun Yi finished speaking, the Shrek team members who were receiving treatment below the arena all looked somewhat solemn.
"I think it's probably because our Heaven Dou Royal Academy is usually focused on training and doesn't show itself much in public, so many people have forgotten how we got our number one seed."
As he spoke, Jun Yi unleashed a powerful surge of Soul Power, creating a fierce hurricane that swept across the vast arena, causing sandstorms to rise all around the stage.
"Now, I'll let you all experience again that profound sense of powerlessness when facing me."
"Any student from any academy present may challenge me. You may choose to come up on stage alone or in groups. Whoever can force me to take half a step back will directly relinquish their seed spot for the Heaven Dou Royal Academy today."
After saying that, one after another, Soul Ring appeared on Jun Yi's body: black, black, black, red, red. He emitted a level 52 Soul Power fluctuation, shocking the entire audience.
Seeing this, everyone stared in disbelief at the young man on the stage.
They had never seen anyone whose First Soul Ring was Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring, and Fourth Soul Ring and Fifth Soul Ring were both one hundred thousand years. What did that mean?
More importantly, they all knew that this boy was only fifteen years old! This meant that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, he was very likely to break through to the Titled Douluo level in his early twenties.
Is this... really something a human can achieve?
As soon as Jun Yi's Soul Ring appeared, the entire arena fell into an eerie silence. The ordinary people in the audience dared not utter a sound, for they were afraid that their voices would drown out the voices of others who wanted to challenge Jun Yi.
Meanwhile, in the academy's spectator stands, everyone fell silent. Most of the students here had witnessed Jun Yi's terrifying strength back then. More than two years ago, when Jun Yi was just a Soul Elder, he defeated Feng Xiaotian, whose Soul Power had reached the Soul Ancestor level, even though he was a higher level. Now, Jun Yi's Soul Power had reached the Soul King level, and he even possessed two Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring. How could they possibly fight him?
Tang San was puzzled to see that no academy dared to challenge him. Even if Jun Yi possessed Soul Ring beyond his comprehension, he was still just a Soul King. Wouldn't it be easy to push him back by half a step?
But this time Tang San had learned his lesson. He wouldn't be the one to stick his neck out again. He didn't have any particularly powerful Hidden Weapon at the moment, and the only Yama's Invitation he had before had been destroyed by Jun Yi. Therefore, he couldn't use his trump card to deal with Jun Yi in front of him.
"It seems everyone still remembers just how strong I really am."
Jun Yi's expression was full of sarcasm. "Since that's the case, let's find a different opponent. I'm itching for a fight today."
As he spoke, Jun Yi turned his gaze to the referee below the ring and smiled, "Referee, do you have the time to come up and exchange a few blows with Jun Yi?"
These words instantly ignited the entire arena! The audience erupted in cheers! No one expected Jun Yi to choose to fight the referee. Most people thought that Jun Yi would probably end the fight directly, but they didn't expect him to choose to fight the referee directly. They all saw that the referee had seven Soul Ring, reaching the level of Soul Saint. Soul King Battle Soul Saint was simply too shocking.
Upon hearing this, the referee paused for a moment, then looked at Salas, asking for his opinion. Salas nodded slightly, and the referee smiled, saying, "Alright, then I'll play with you today and see just how strong Prince Jun really is."
