Chapter 604: Being beaten without any chance to fight back

This undoubtedly made winning the championship much more difficult, but fortunately... he had the system's help! "Thank you, Sect Master Ning, for the reminder. Lu Yu will keep it in mind."

Lu Yu stood up and bowed solemnly, "If there is nothing else, I will take my leave first."

Ning Fengzhi waved his hand and said gently, "Go, young man.

The road ahead will be difficult, but with your talent, you may be able to carve out a niche for yourself."

Leaving the VIP room, Lu Yu's steps were a little heavy.

Ning Fengzhi's words were like a huge rock pressing on his heart. The trouble with the Qilin Seal was far more difficult than he had imagined.

Returning to his room, he closed the door, sat cross-legged on the bed, closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "System, come out, I have something to ask you."

A cold and mechanical voice sounded in my mind: "Host, please speak."

Lu Yu frowned and said, "The trouble with the Qilin Talisman has attracted Titled Douluo-level enemies. With my current strength, I am simply unable to deal with them.

What suggestions do you have?

The system was silent for a moment, then responded: "Based on the current situation, the system provides the host with the following three coping methods.

First, you can purchase a Titled Douluo experience card in the mall for 10 million soul coins. After using it, you can have the strength of a Titled Douluo within three minutes, which is enough to deal with strong opponents or escape.

But please note that the price will double with each exchange."

Lu Yu's eyes lit up. Three minutes of Titled Douluo's strength was enough to turn the tide! But the high price of 10 million soul coins made his heart sink.

He gritted his teeth and asked, "What about the second one?"

“Second, you can purchase the advanced version of the Gold Gatling Gun in the mall for 20 million soul coins.

This weapon can fire 30,000 bullets in two minutes, and its power is enough to directly kill a Titled Douluo.

But please note that this weapon is a one-time consumable item."

The system said calmly.

Lu Yu took a deep breath. Twenty million soul coins! The soul coins he had saved were originally intended to be used as resources for Zhu Zhuqing to break through to the Soul King level, but now he had to face such a difficult choice.

He frowned and asked, "Is there a third method?"

"Third, the host can choose to leave secretly, avoid the limelight, and return after his strength increases."

The system sound remained calm.

Lu Yu sneered: "Leave secretly? That's not my style! Although the first two methods are expensive, they are incredibly powerful and can save lives at critical moments.

System, are you sure my life is not in danger?"

“The host has this system, and his life safety is guaranteed.

However, it is recommended that the host choose carefully, as soul coins are limited and need to be allocated reasonably."

The system replied coldly.

Lu Yu took a deep breath, rubbed his brows, and murmured, "There's no rush to use it for now, let's improve our strength first.

The Elite Competition is coming up, so I have to seize the time to practice."

The next morning, the sun shone on the competition field of Tiandou City, and the noisy voices surged like a tide.

Lu Yu led the Shrek team members onto the field, and their green and gold uniforms sparkled in the sun.

He looked around, his eyes sweeping over the remaining thirty teams, his heart sinking slightly.

Today's elite competition has entered a white-hot stage. Every team is very strong and it is not easy to win the championship.

"Lu Yu, we have won five games. If we win two more, you will get the 'King of the Seven Seas' spirit ring and break through to the Soul King level!"

Dai Mubai patted Lu Yu's shoulder and grinned, his eyes full of fighting spirit.

Lu Yu nodded, but his eyes fell on a team not far away.

They were from the Nantian Academy in the south. The team members were dressed in light blue uniforms, their movements were as light as the wind, and there was a faint eerie aura.

Especially their captain Nan Yun, whose martial soul was a blurry figure, standing there as if blending into the air, making him unpredictable.

His younger brother, the vice-captain Nan Hao, also had a strange spirit. The two brothers joined forces and used a magic called "Phantom Killer".

The combination of soul skills is incredibly powerful.

"Nantian Academy...their ability to change shape and form is very tricky."

Lu Yu whispered, a hint of solemnity flashing in his eyes.

Ma Hongjun came over, scratching his head and said, "Lu Yu, what are our chances of winning against Qianxun Academy this afternoon? I heard their illusion techniques are very powerful, even stronger than Canghui Academy's mental attacks!"

Lu Yu frowned and turned his gaze to Qianxun Academy on the other side of the arena.

Their team members were dressed in colorful and strange costumes, with strange smiles on their faces, and an illusory aura in their every move.

Lu Yu said in a deep voice: "Qianxun Academy's illusions are indeed not simple, they are both real and fake, and they are hard to guard against.

However, we can handle the mental attacks from Canghui Academy, but Qianxun Academy may not be able to stop us!"

Zhu Zhuqing stood aside, and a cold voice came: "Lu Yu is right, as long as we go all out, we will definitely win."

Lu Yu turned to look at her, a soft look flashed in his eyes, and he nodded and said, "Zhu Qing is right.

Everyone, cheer up for the afternoon match! Qianxun Academy's magic is powerful, but our Shrek team's coordination is not weak either.

Remember, stay calm and don't be fooled by their illusions."

Oscar chuckled and handed over a bunch of sausages: "Lu Yu, eat some of my recovery sausages before the game to stay in top shape!"

Lu Yu took the sausage and patted Oscar on the shoulder with a smile: "Good boy, the taste of this sausage is getting better and better!"

Everyone laughed, and the tense atmosphere eased a little.

Lu Yu secretly clenched his fists, his eyes swept over the Qianxun Academy team members, and he thought to himself: "Illusion? No matter what tricks you play, I, Lu Yu, will not let Shrek stop here!"

The afternoon match started as scheduled. On the center stage of the competition field, the Shrek team and the members of Qianxun Academy stood facing each other.

The captain of Qianxun Academy is a tall and thin young man with colorful paint on his face and a strange smile. His martial soul is a strange bronze mirror that emits a faint halo.

Lu Yu stood at the front of the team, his eyes like knives, and said in a deep voice: "Shrek team, prepare for battle!"

The captain of Qianxun Academy chuckled, his voice erratic: "Lu Yu from Shrek is well-deserved of his reputation.

However, I'm afraid you will fall into our hands today.

The realm of illusion is not something you can easily break!"

Lu Yu snorted coldly, and the spirit ring under his feet lit up. He said in a deep voice: "Really? Then let's give it a try. In the end, is your illusion magic more powerful, or is our fist harder!"

With the referee's order, the game officially started.

The members of Qianxun Academy released their martial spirits together, and a light mist suddenly filled the field. Illusory light and shadows intertwined on the stage, dazzling the eyes.

Lu Yu narrowed his eyes and shouted, "Everyone be careful, maintain your formation, and don't be distracted by their illusions!"

Before he finished speaking, an illusory figure suddenly jumped out of the fog and rushed towards Lu Yu.

Lu Yu sneered, his figure flashed, his soul skills were activated instantly, and he rushed forward.

The battle on the ring was about to break out. Everyone in the Shrek team tried their best and engaged in a fierce confrontation with the illusion magic of Qianxun Academy.

"Lu Yu, left!"

Zhu Zhuqing's cold voice was heard, and Lu Yu understood what she meant. He turned around and dodged a phantom attack from the side.

He turned around and slapped out with his palm, his soul power surged, dispersing the fog in front of him, revealing the ferocious faces of the Qianxun Academy team members.

"interesting!"

Lu Yu raised the corner of his mouth slightly, with a fighting spirit in his eyes, "Let me see how powerful your illusion is!"

Inside the competition venue, the noisy audience seats were filled with cheers and applause, forming a sea of ​​enthusiasm.

Lu Yu stood in the Shrek Academy team formation, his eyes as calm as water, not at all moved by the countless gazes around him.

Xiao Wu beside him gently tugged at his sleeve and whispered, "Lu Yu, this time our opponent is no ordinary opponent. He Shengyuan, the captain of Qianxun Academy, is a level 49 Soul Master. His martial soul is the strange Phantom Soul Flower, specializing in illusion.

You better be careful.”

Lu Yu smiled slightly, patted the back of Xiao Wu's hand, and said in a relaxed tone: "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing.

It's just an illusion, it's full of flaws."

There was a sense of confidence in his voice, as if he already knew his opponent's strengths and weaknesses clearly.

Wang Sheng stood aside, rubbing his hands and grinning, "Hey, no matter how powerful this guy's illusion is, it depends on whether we can give him a chance to perform! Lu Yu, don't you agree?"

"Don't be careless."

Lu Yu glanced at Wang Sheng and said with a hint of warning, "He Shengyuan's illusion was able to make the opponent in the previous match lose their combat effectiveness, which shows that his mental control is not weak.

However, as long as we are determined enough, his tricks will be useless."

The bell rang, and the referee announced loudly: "Shrek Academy vs. Qianxun Academy, the match begins!"

Lu Yu led Xiao Wu, Wang Sheng, Oscar and others onto the ring. Opposite them, He Shengyuan, the captain of Qianxun Academy, was wearing a dark green robe, with a stern face and a cunning light in his eyes.

His martial soul, the Phantom Soul Flower, has blossomed in his hand, and the enchanting petals are swaying gently, emitting a strange aura.

"Shrek Academy has quite a reputation."

He Shengyuan sneered, his tone somewhat provocative, "However, I'm afraid you will have to stop here today.

Are you ready for my illusion?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he swung his hands violently, and the fluctuations of soul power surged out like a tide. A layer of light purple mist instantly filled the sky above the ring. In the mist, countless illusory images could be vaguely seen flowing, as if dragging people into an endless nightmare.

"Illusion envelops!"

He Shengyuan let out a low shout, and the purple mist quickly spread, covering the entire arena.

Oscar, Ning Rongrong and the others felt a flash before their eyes, and their consciousness seemed to be pulled into a hazy illusion. Their bodies froze involuntarily, and a look of struggle appeared on their faces.

Lu Yu frowned slightly, his mental power was as sharp as a knife, instantly tearing the illusion before his eyes.

Xiao Wu and Wang Sheng beside him also had stern expressions and clear eyes, and they had obviously broken free from the constraints of the illusion.

Xiao Wu snorted lightly, her tone disdainful: "You think you can trap us with just this little trick? You really underestimate us!"

Wang Sheng even yelled out curses, "Despicable! You only know how to use such despicable tactics. If you have the guts, let's have a real fight!"

Before he could finish his words, the vice-captain of Qianxun Academy, a burly soul master, rushed forward with a sneer and punched Wang Sheng in the chest: "So what if the scolding sounds nice? As long as I can deal with you!"

Wang Sheng was not willing to be outdone. He stepped forward, dodged flexibly, and punched forward at the same time.

He and Xiao Wu have been training in the Star Dou Forest for more than a year, and have already mastered Jeet Kune Do to perfection. Although his strength is not as good as Lu Yu's, it is more than enough to deal with ordinary attacks.

As the two men fought, fists whistled in the ring and the muffled sound of soul power colliding could be heard continuously.

Lu Yu did not rush to take action. He stood in place, his eyes fixed on He Shengyuan, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.

Although he broke the illusion, his mental strength was still greatly impacted, and he felt a faint pain in his head.

He took a deep breath, suppressed the feeling of mental fatigue, took a wrong step, and approached He Shengyuan like a ghost.

"This trick of pretending to be a ghost is over!"

Lu Yu let out a low roar and unleashed his Jeet Kune Do with all his strength. His fist was as strong as thunder and rushed towards He Shengyuan with an invisible oppressive force.

He Shengyuan's face changed and he tried to dodge, but he found that Lu Yu's punches were continuous like the tide, leaving him no chance to breathe.

"boom!"

A punch hit He Shengyuan right in the chest. The huge force made him stagger back and his face turned pale instantly.

The two soul masters behind him tried to step forward to rescue him, but were swept away by Lu Yu and fell to the edge of the ring, spitting blood and looking miserable.

"waste!"

He Shengyuan scolded his men, his eyes filled with anger, "This guy was clearly under mental attack, how can he still have such strength? Can't you even take his punch?"

"Captain, his attack is too weird!"

One of his men clutched his chest and spoke with difficulty, "Before we could even unleash our spirit abilities, he beat us to the point where we had no chance to fight back! This Jeet Kune Do... doesn't even look like a spirit ability!"

He gritted his teeth and tried to gather his soul power to fight back, but found that Lu Yu's fists followed him like a shadow, and each blow was extremely precise, as if he could predict his movements.

After a few moves, the two teammates beside He Shengyuan were knocked away and fell to the edge of the ring, their breath weak.

"Captain, this guy's boxing skills are so weird!"

A teammate struggled to his feet, his voice filled with fear, "We can't stop him at all. His strength is endless, as if he is completely unaffected by illusions!"

He Shengyuan gritted his teeth, his eyes blazing with anger. "What a bunch of trash! Just wait and see how I deal with him!"

He suddenly clasped his hands together, the light of the Phantom Soul Flower became brighter, and the purple mist surged again, trying to pull Lu Yu back into the illusion.

However, Lu Yu just sneered, and his mental power tore through the fog like a knife. Without stopping, his fist smashed towards He Shengyuan with a whistling force.

At the same time, although Xiao Wu and Wang Sheng's Jeet Kune Do were slightly weaker in strength, their movements were flexible enough to hold back the other members of Qianxun Academy.

On the ring, the three Shrek Academy students were like tigers descending from the mountains, their attacks were fierce and forced their opponents to retreat step by step.

A team member of Qianxun Academy has a giant bear as his martial soul. The power of his soul skills is terrifying, but under Lu Yu's boxing, he was still beaten back repeatedly and his soul power was exhausted.

"impossible!"

He Shengyuan stared at Lu Yu with eyes wide open in disbelief, "How can your Jeet Kune Do be so powerful? It can even rival high-level soul skills, and it doesn't even require soul power to support it!"

Lu Yu did not answer, but just snorted coldly and punched more fiercely.

A few minutes later, the three students from Qianxun Academy were beaten to the point of being unable to fight back. They fell to the ground one after another. The referee loudly announced: "The three students from Qianxun Academy have lost their fighting ability. Shrek Academy has won!"
