Chapter 188 The next battle, Tianshui

Looking at the familiar door, Dai Yao felt a little guilty. He carefully opened the door, stretched out his head, and looked around the room.

Not seeing Zhu Zhuqing's figure, he felt relieved.

Although the illusion was false, the sincere feelings he had with Ning Rongrong in the illusion couldn't be more real. Back to reality, even if Dai Yao did nothing, he would always feel a little guilty when he saw Zhu Zhuqing.

"You're back."

The moment Dai Yao closed the door, a cold voice without any emotion sounded from behind.

A chill ran down his back, and the hair on his hair stood up. Dai Yao turned around with a smile.

The moonlight shines through the window and shines on the woman sitting by the window, like a goddess under the moonlight, with a somewhat quiet and cold temperament. Zhu Zhuqing took off the tight clothes she usually wore when fighting and put on a loose black dress.

But even so, the devil's curves cannot be concealed.

She slowly walked to Dai Yao and hugged him fiercely. Her cold voice was full of worry:

"It's so late, I'm so worried about you."

His nose twitched slightly, sniffing Dai Yao's breath, and he couldn't help but frown slightly. She was very familiar with Dai Yao's breath, and could clearly tell that there was a hint of faint fragrance mixed in Dai Yao's breath.

She seemed to have smelled this fragrance before, and it reminded her of a person she had only met a few times, Ning Rongrong of the Qibao Glazed Sect.

"Brother Yao came back so late. Are you staying with Ning Rongrong? That's right. Sect Leader Ning asked Brother Yao to meet someone, so he would inevitably stay with Ning Rongrong. But the intensity of this fragrance is by no means just Stayed for a while and a half.”

Thinking of this, her heart trembled slightly, and the sadness in her eyes flashed away, because her Zhen head was touching Dai Yao's shoulder, and Dai Yao couldn't see her expression clearly.

After hearing Zhu Zhuqing's words, Dai Yao's guilt deepened and he said:

"Sorry, something unexpected happened on my way back."

Zhu Zhuqing smiled and said:

"Just come back. Brother Yao, please wash up and rest early. If you are hungry, I can go out and bring you a midnight snack now."

"No need, you should go to bed early, we have a battle tomorrow."

The more considerate Zhu Zhuqing was to him, the heavier the guilt he felt in his heart.

······

After washing, Dai Yao lay on the bed, looking at the bright moon in the sky, but couldn't sleep.

The reason why he didn't tell Zhu Zhuqing that he was attacked was because there was nothing Zhu Zhuqing could do if he told her about it. It could only make her worry, so he simply stopped talking.

Wiping the treasure bag on his waist, two items appeared in his palm.

The first thing was the purple-black bones, which exuded a faint light, and the soul power fluctuated faintly.

It was the gem-like head soul bone that exploded after killing Jin Nian.

The other piece is a black bone. This is the soul bone that was exploded from the assassin who killed the Zhu family at Xingluo Royal Academy six or seven years ago.

Just a thousand-year-old soul bone.

He gave this soul bone to Zhu Zhuqing at first, but as he became stronger and stronger, Zhu Zhuqing became more and more hesitant about absorbing this soul bone.

Although soul bones are the treasures that many soul masters dream of. After obtaining one, they will forcibly absorb it even if it does not suit their attributes. However, for Zhu Zhuqing, doing so will only lead to an increasing gap in strength between her and Dai Yao. big.

Absorbing this soul bone, which is not particularly high-quality, will inevitably consume his future potential, causing him to be unable to keep up with Dai Yao's pace in the future. In the end, she gave up the soul bone and gave it back to Dai Yao.

Looking at the two soul bones in his hand, Dai Yao didn't know what to say for a moment.

The black soul bone is suitable for agility-type soul masters, but Zhu Zhuqing doesn't want it; and the soul bone from that time is undoubtedly suitable for gem-type soul masters. For control-type soul masters, it can also enhance part of the mental power.

But for Dugu Yan, it is suitable and not suitable.

Dai Yao had long since set his sights on Dugu Yan, the skull of spiritually condensed wisdom that was awarded in the Wuhun Palace Competition. That soul bone was the most suitable for her, so she kept this purple-black soul bone in her hand.

Dai Yao actually had two of the soul bones that many soul masters dreamed of, and he didn't know how to deal with them. If others knew about it, they would be speechless to Dai Yao.

Weighing this soul bone, Dai Yao couldn't help but think:

"This soul bone is suitable for those gem-type soul masters who are extremely suitable for Canghui College, but it is impossible for me to give it to them. Could it be that this soul bone still has to be given to Ning Rongrong like in the original work?"

He shook his head and thought:

"It's inappropriate, it's inappropriate. After years of turmoil, my relationship with Ning Rongrong has become a mess. Given this soul bone, it will become even more complicated."

Looking at the head soul bone, which is coveted by the soul master world, Dai Yao felt sorry for it and said:

"This soul bone of yours is unlucky. Follow me and get ashes in my storage bag!"

"Keep it first. If you don't win the championship in the future, it won't be too late to give this soul bone to Dugu Yan."

I defeated an elite monster and got a soul bone. It was obviously a very precious thing, but it was of no use. I didn't know what to say.

Dai Yao himself would never look down on these soul bones.

After taking back the soul bone, Dai Yao fell into thinking again.

Thinking back on Shi Nian's attack today, he still felt cold in his heart.

If the second martial spirit hadn't been domineering enough, I'm afraid that he would have died at the hands of Shi Nian today.

When he killed Shi Nian, he didn't hold anything back. Shi Nian's whole body was decomposed, leaving only the soul bone of Shi Nian. As a result, there was no trace left. Therefore, he could not judge whether Shi Nian attacked him. What's the motivation?

In the original work, Shi Nian attacked Tang San, on the one hand, to satisfy the pleasure of killing geniuses, and on the other hand, to clear the obstacles to advancement for Canghui Academy.

I have to say that Shi Nian was very arrogant, tampering with and killing people in a competition held by spectators all over the continent. He really didn't take the organizer of the competition seriously.

Dai Yao's performance in the competition was amazing enough, and he indeed had the motive to kill Shi Nian, but Dai Yao always had a vague feeling that there was a mastermind behind this attack.

"Who is the person behind this?"

Dai Yao thought:

"It's possible for the Tiandou royal family, but I just refused Xue Qinghe's invitation. Even if you want to get rid of me, you won't do it so quickly. It really makes people find out. The first person to suspect is the Tiandou royal family. It shouldn't be So stupid."

"Besides, Xue Qinghe is pretended to be by Qian Renxue. She is from Wuhun Palace. She has no reason to kill him."

"Other forces are also possible. Since I joined the Spirit Hall, I will definitely be resented by them. The one who is most suspected is the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect."

Thinking of this, Dai Yao's eyes turned cold.

"However, now that I have no evidence, I can't accuse them unjustly. Since I can't find any evidence, I simply tell Bishop Salas and ask him to look for it for me. How can such a good opportunity from Wuhun Palace be wasted!"

"Even if they are curious about the reason why I killed Shi Nian, or even get to the bottom of it, it doesn't matter. I'm going to join the Spirit Hall anyway, and my twin spirits will attract their attention even more."

······

Day two.

The Auckland game was in the afternoon, so Dai Yao went to the Spirit Holy City in Tiandou Imperial City early in the morning.

After telling Shi Nian about the attack on him, Salas's face darkened instantly. Although he was shocked by Dai Yao's ability to fight back Shi Nian, he didn't ask any more questions. After all, everyone has their own secrets.

Dai Yao has been paid close attention to by Wuhun Palace. Someone actually dared to give them eye drops. Tiandou's eyeliners all over the place immediately became active.

Just when Dai Yao left the Wuhun Temple, Salas added:

"Dai Yao, don't worry. In a few days, an adult will be personally responsible for your safety."

On the way to the Great Soul Fighting Arena, Dai Yao's heart skipped a beat when he thought of Salas's words.

The man Salas calls a lord is by no means a simple person. Salas is a Contra, and he calls him "Sir". Could it be that he is a titled Douluo? !

Dai Yao suppressed the joy in his heart. A titled Douluo was personally responsible for his safety. It can be imagined how much he was valued by Wuhun Palace. The future development in Wuhun Palace will definitely be much smoother.

"I just don't know which Titled Douluo it is?"

Dai Yao was a little curious.

There are quite a few titled Douluo in Wuhun Palace. Titled Douluo above level ninety-five are generally not easy to take action in the Enshrinement Palace. Titled Douluo below level 95 are in the Elder Hall, and they have the highest combat power in the Spirit Hall.

"Ju Ghost Douluo has the most frequent activities on the mainland. Maybe it's one of them. It doesn't matter. Anyway, with a titled Douluo by my side, I don't have to worry about my safety anymore."

"If it was his own idea to attack and kill me in Shi Nian, then that's it. After all, everyone is dead, and there's nothing you can find if you want to take revenge. But if you really find the person behind him, hum... "

Thinking of this, his eyes became extremely cold.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, the competition is halfway through.

The qualifiers were exciting. Since Auckland defeated Thunder Academy and Kamikaze Academy one after another, they have made great progress and won fifteen consecutive victories.

But in the sixteenth game, against Canghui Academy, he took the initiative to admit defeat.

This surprised everyone. The official explanation given by Auckland was that Dai Yao, the absolute core of the team, was very exhausted due to continuous high-intensity battles. Auckland lacked auxiliary soul masters and had to take a truce.

At the same time, several of the team's main players also suffered varying degrees of hidden injuries and took a break to heal.

Therefore, this game was simply thrown in the towel.

In fact, at the beginning of that game, Dai Yao was still very lively, but as soon as he saw that most of the Canghui Academy had never played in previous games, he realized that Canghui Academy was going to get serious. .

In the original work, Canghui Academy replaced seven soul masters with gem-like martial souls, and performed the seven-in-one martial soul fusion technique that shocked the past and the present. If it hadn't been for the trick of Tang Shenwang, I am afraid that in the illusion of the Seven Shura, he would have become An idiot.

Although Dai Yao can defeat Canghui Academy, it is not necessary.

Revealing the second martial spirit just to defeat a few miscellaneous fish? The price/performance ratio is too low. Moreover, he still wants to keep this Canghui Academy to deal with Shrek!

He wanted to see how Tang San could defeat this seven-in-one spirit fusion technique without the Mustard Seed Realm Purple Demon Eyes!

Although they won the victory effortlessly, Canghui Academy was furious. They specially selected the strongest team in this competition, hoping to shock the world with their seven-in-one martial soul fusion technique against Auckland.

Unexpectedly, Oakland College actually admitted defeat.

They originally wanted to appeal and have an upright fight with Auckland, but before Auckland responded, the staff and countless viewers began to educate them:

"You are so ignorant. After picking up a victory, you just keep it. Do you have to seek abuse?"

"You've had bad luck and are you still not satisfied? Compared with Auckland, the difference between you and Auckland is the difference between the stars and the bright moon. There is no comparison at all!"

"Hey, you can't say that. Canghui Academy is still a bit bloody. It won't be eaten by others. It's wise to fight against Auckland in a battle that is bound to be defeated. It's really courageous."

Hearing the comments from the audience, the seven team members of Canghui Academy almost suffered from internal injuries.

They clearly have the unique skill of seven-in-one martial arts fusion skills, but they cannot prove themselves. Instead, they are regarded as clowns by the audience, and their resentment towards Auckland has reached its peak.

However, their next opponent was Shrek Academy.

Although Shrek Academy is not as good as Auckland, it is still a dark horse team and a strong contender in the promotion round. Therefore, they vowed to show everyone their strength when they face Shrek Academy!

Dai Yao was already looking forward to Tang San's match against Canghui Academy.

But the result on the second day made Dai Yao a little disappointed. Canghui College still lost.

Although the seven-in-one martial soul fusion technique shocked all the soul masters, in the end, just like the original work, the seven people from Canghui Academy foamed at the mouth and turned into idiots.

But Tang San didn't feel well either, and fell into a coma as soon as he came off the stage. This made Dai Yao secretly cry out that it was a pity, Canghui Academy was really incompetent!

From another perspective, Dai Yao could obtain the knowledge about the fairy grass, but compared to Tang San becoming an idiot, it would be better if he didn't need this knowledge about the fairy grass.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, the competition process comes to an end.

A total of twenty-seven rounds of qualifiers are coming to an end with the last two games left.

The current records of the top teams are as follows:

Auckland College won 24 out of 25 games, and the only one they lost was Canghui College.

Kamikaze Academy has won 23 out of 25 games. The ones who defeated them were Auckland and Blazing Academy. The Auckland team was overwhelmingly powerful. However, against Blazing Academy, a key figure gave in and it was difficult not to lose.

Blazing Academy won 23 out of 25 games, losing only to Oakland Academy and Tianshui Academy. Tianshui Academy's attributes are incompatible, so there's really nothing they can do about it.

These three teams have basically locked their spots in the promotion round according to the upcoming battle arrangements, and the competition for the remaining two spots is particularly fierce.

Tianshui Academy won twenty-two of twenty-five games.

Shrek Academy, twenty-two wins in twenty-five battles.

After defeating Canghui Academy, Tang San, who was without a control-type soul master, had no choice but to replace himself with the full main lineup, which was how he ensured such good results.

Fortunately, during the few days when Tang San was in coma, they did not encounter such a powerful opponent as the Five Elements Academy. Otherwise, even if the other six Shrek players were all on the field, they would not be able to defeat such an opponent.

The Thunder Academy was the most miserable, with only 25 wins and 21 wins.

In the first battle against Auckland, almost all the main players were seriously injured, and Yu Tianxin was even more unconscious. She missed several games in a row, her strength dropped significantly, and she was easily defeated by several academies. As a result, she is now struggling on the edge of the promotion competition.

Every time they think about this, the members of Thunder Academy secretly hate it. When Dai Yao faced other colleges, he held back his hand. Even when he faced Shenfeng College, he held back his hand at the last moment.

But when he faced them, he severely damaged them. If it weren't for Dai Yao, they wouldn't be as miserable as they are now.

As for Elephant Academy, well, let’s not talk about it...

Now it has become a shame to the Five Elements Academy...

Although Tianshui Academy and Shrek Academy were both one game ahead of Thunder Academy, they did not dare to relax at all.

Because in the last two rounds of qualifiers, they all had the same opponent, which was Auckland College, which was like a mountain that towered over all the teams in this competition.

Facing Oakland, they had no chance of winning.

And Tianshui College’s next opponent is Auckland!

Alas, the Douluo Dalu anime has concluded. How can I describe the adaptation? It’s hard to describe.

Many classic plots have been cut or even deleted, which is a pity.

I don’t know if there will be a reset version in the future.
