Chapter 605 This Lu Yu is indeed not simple
The purple mist on the ring gradually dissipated, and Oscar and the others finally woke up from the illusion, their faces pale and their eyes full of fear.
Oscar patted his chest and let out a long sigh: "This illusion is too terrifying! If it weren't for Lu Yu and the others breaking the illusion, I'm afraid there wouldn't be even a bone left of us!"
Ning Rongrong nodded, her eyes full of envy: "Lu Yu, how did you manage to break free from the illusion so quickly? My mental strength was almost drained!"
Lu Yu smiled faintly, his tone calm: "After a year of training in the Star Dou Forest, this level of illusion can't trap me.
He Shengyuan, on the other hand, tried to hold on even after his mental strength was exhausted, so he was doomed to lose."
He Shengyuan struggled to his feet, his face livid, and he shouted unwillingly, "I haven't lost yet! Shrek Academy, don't even think about defeating me easily today!"
Before he finished speaking, Wang Sheng strode forward and unleashed intermediate Jeet Kune Do moves, punching He Shengyuan with a fierce force.
"bring it on!"
Wang Sheng grinned, "Let me see how much more you can do!"
His punches were as fast as the wind. Although his attack was not as devastating as Lu Yu's, it was enough to make He Shengyuan panic.
However, Wang Sheng's strength was limited after all, and his Jeet Kune Do lacked continuity, so his offensive occasionally stagnated, allowing He Shengyuan to seize the opportunity. The illusionary soul power condensed in his fist hit Wang Sheng's shoulder hard, leaving a deep scar visible to the bone.
"Wang Sheng, step back!"
Lu Yu frowned and shouted in a deep voice.
He noticed that He Shengyuan's fist was faintly glowing with purple light, obviously concentrating the illusion soul power in his fist, trying to use it to drag his opponent into the illusion.
This technique is quite advanced and ordinary soul masters find it difficult to resist.
Wang Sheng gritted his teeth and retreated, his body covered in wounds and his breathing unstable.
Lu Yu stepped forward, and his Jeet Kune Do technique flowed smoothly, with powerful punches hitting He Shengyuan's chest.
He Shengyuan sneered, his fist glowed purple, and he tried to pull Lu Yu into the illusion.
However, Lu Yu just snorted lightly, and his mental power surged out like a tide, instantly tearing the illusion apart, and his fist hit He Shengyuan mercilessly.
"boom!"
With a dull thud, He Shengyuan was knocked several meters away and fell on the edge of the ring. Blood was oozing from the corner of his mouth and he was breathing weakly.
Seeing this, the vice-captain of Qianxun Academy's face changed and he shouted loudly: "We surrender!"
The referee immediately announced: "Shrek Academy wins!"
After the game, Lu Yu and others retreated to the rest area, all of them looked listless and pale.
Lu Yu took a deep breath, activated his soul power, and applied a layer of mental power recovery effect to the six people.
Oscar let out a long sigh and patted Lu Yu on the shoulder: "Good brother, thanks to you this time! Otherwise, we would have fallen into this illusion."
Xiao Wu nodded, her eyes full of admiration: "Lu Yu, your Jeet Kune Do is getting stronger and stronger. Even a 49th-level Soul Sect member has no chance of fighting back!"
Lu Yu smiled and said modestly: "It's just some tricks, the key is that our will is firm enough.
No matter how powerful the illusion is, it is nothing more than an illusory dream."
Outside the rest area, the soul masters in the audience were discussing the matter, their voices filled with surprise: "How could Shrek Academy actually defeat Qianxun Academy? He Shengyuan's illusions are notoriously strange!"
"I can only say that there is something wrong with their tactics."
Another soul master shook his head. "He Shengyuan's mental energy was too much, and the illusion was broken by several people from Shrek. I guess they were more vigilant during the previous battle with Canghui Academy, and their mental resistance is stronger."
"Monster Team, they live up to their reputation!"
Someone sighed, "To be able to make it into the top 15, you really have to have real talent!"
The next morning, Lu Yu went out alone to buy some breakfast for his teammates.
People were coming and going on the street. He was looking down to choose food when he suddenly felt a cold breath approaching from behind.
He turned around suddenly and saw a dark shadow slowly walking towards him. It was Ghost Douluo.
Lu Yu's heart tightened, and he thought to himself, "Could it be that I have been discovered?"
He was about to turn around and leave when Ghost Douluo said in a deep voice, "Lu Yu, don't be nervous, I have no ill intentions.
Someone wants to see you, come with me."
Lu Yu frowned slightly. Although he was on guard, he nodded and followed Ghost Douluo to a secluded teahouse.
In the teahouse, Xie Yue was dressed in gorgeous clothes, sitting at the table. Seeing Lu Yu coming, he smiled slightly: "Lu Yu, thank you for sending Na'er back the other day."
Lu Yu felt a pang of fear in his heart, thinking to himself, "Could it be that the matter of cheating him of his soul coins has been exposed?"
He remained calm and said, "It's just a small favor. Brother Xie Yue, don't worry about it."
Xie Yue waved his hand and said sincerely, "The Spirit Hall values your talent very much. If you are willing to join, we can provide resources and conditions that far exceed those of Shrek Academy.
Would you consider it?"
Lu Yu's heart moved, but he shook his head and said, "Thank you, Brother Xie Yue, for your kindness. However, I am currently representing Shrek Academy in the battle, and I have responsibilities to fulfill, so I cannot agree to it for the time being."
Xie Yue heard this, a trace of regret flashed in his eyes, but he said nothing more, just smiled and said: "Well, the competition is not over yet. If you have any ideas in the future, Wuhun Hall is always welcome."
Lu Yu nodded, but secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, thinking: "It seems that the soul coin matter has not been exposed yet. Fortunately, fortunately..."
Lu Yu pushed open the door of the Spirit Hall branch, and was greeted by a murderous aura, as if the air was filled with invisible pressure.
He walked steadily and with a sharp gaze, he walked straight to the center of the hall.
Inside the hall, Xie Yue was wearing a black and gold robe, standing with his hands behind his back. Behind him stood Ghost Douluo, his aura as ethereal as a ghost.
Xie Yue's eyes were cold and scrutinizing, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a meaningful smile.
"Lu Yu, I heard that you made a bet with Nana?"
Xie Yue's voice was low and teasing, but his eyes seemed to see through Lu Yu. "If you lose the bet, you have to agree to one of her requests, right?"
Lu Yu stopped, crossed his arms over his chest, with an uninhibited smile on his face, "Yes, Captain Xie Yue is well-informed.
Why, are you here to sound out the truth on behalf of your sister?"
Xie Yue narrowed his eyes and slowly approached, with an invisible pressure in his steps, "I'm just curious, the so-called geniuses of Shrek Academy are not even a little bit inferior to our Spirit Hall's elite team.
Guess what Nana will ask for? How about joining the Spirit Hall?
Lu Yu chuckled, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes, "Joining the Spirit Hall? Captain Xie Yue thinks too highly of you.
I, Lu Yu, cannot be conquered by just anyone."
Xie Yue's face darkened slightly, and his tone suddenly turned cold, "Lu Yu, I warn you, don't have any evil thoughts about Nana.
Otherwise, I, Xie Yue, will be the first one to not let you go!"
Lu Yu's eyes were stern, and he did not give in at all. He met Xie Yue's gaze, and his tone was calm but sharp, "Xie Yue, do you dare to touch me now? A few days ago, many aristocratic families in Tiandou City were destroyed overnight, leaving no trace. Tsk tsk, their methods were cruel enough.
What, is the Spirit Hall trying to establish its authority in Tiandou City?"
Xie Yue's pupils shrank suddenly, and a trace of shock flashed in his eyes, "You...how do you know this?"
Lu Yu curled his lips into a cold smile and said slowly, "There is no such thing as an impenetrable wall in this world. The Spirit Hall has been in a bad situation in recent years, facing internal and external troubles, Captain Xie Yue, don't you agree? Oh, by the way, Sect Master Ning of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect has my backing. If you dare to touch me, Sect Master Ning will kill you personally, believe it or not?"
Xie Yue's face was gloomy, his fists were slightly clenched, and he stared at Lu Yu with eyes that seemed to be spitting fire.
He took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and said coldly: "Lu Yu, you are really sharp-tongued.
Humph, I'll let you go today, get lost!"
Lu Yu shrugged, turned and left. His back was calm, but there was a meaningful smile on the corner of his mouth.
In the hall, Ghost Douluo's figure slowly emerged, his voice as deep as a ghost, "There's a familiar aura about this kid, but I can't remember where I've seen him before..."
Xie Yue frowned and said in a deep voice, "Familiar? What do you mean?"
Ghost Douluo shook his head, his eyes deep, "It's hard to say, but this Lu Yu is not simple.
He has a strong will, good cultivation, a rare martial soul, and many strange soul skills.
During the competition that day, he didn't even use his martial soul or soul skills. Xie Yue, you better be careful."
Xie Yue snorted coldly, with a complicated look in his eyes, “Nana’s vision is indeed not bad.
Ghost Elder, please keep an eye on him and don't let him ruin our plans."
Ghost Douluo nodded and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, I will keep an eye on it."
At this moment, hurried footsteps were heard outside the hall. Sarath hurried in with a serious look on his face. "Xie Yue, the latest news is that the Saint will be coming to Tiandou City in a few days to participate in the elite competition."
"what?!"
Xie Yue turned her head abruptly, her eyes brimming with rage. "What is she doing here? Isn't it enough that she's snatched Nana's position as Saint? Now she's trying to interfere in the Elite Competition?!"
Sarath sighed and whispered, "The Pope thinks highly of her. I heard that she is gifted and ruthless, and she has established a firm foothold in the Spirit Hall in a short period of time.
Now there are two factions in the palace, one supports her, and the other supports you and Nana.
This time she came here, probably hoping to gain fame through the elite competition."
Xie Yue clenched his fists, his joints crackling as he gritted his teeth, "Fame? Never mind! I don't agree with her participating in the elite competition. I'm going to go talk to the teacher myself and make things clear!"
Sarath frowned and advised, “Xie Yue, calm down.
The Saint has the Pope's support behind her. Your impulsiveness will only make things worse."
Xie Yue sneered, her eyes filled with resentment. "Shit? The Spirit Hall is already in chaos! Why should she, an outsider, snatch something that belongs to Nana? Why should the entire Spirit Hall revolve around her?!"
Ghost Douluo's voice sounded faintly, "Xie Yue, Sarath is right.
Now is not the time to act on impulse. The arrival of the Saint is probably arranged by the Pope.
We have to think long-term.”
Xie Yue took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, I will endure it.
But if she dares to harm Nana, I will never forgive her!"
On the other side, Lu Yu returned to the inn. When he opened the door, Xiao Wu was sitting by the window, holding her chin with her hands, with a lazy look in her eyes.
Seeing Lu Yu, her eyes lit up and she jumped up and said, "Brother Yu, you're back! Where have you been? What took you so long?"
Lu Yu smiled and shook the food box in his hand, "I went to buy some food. Are you hungry? Go wake everyone up to eat."
Xiao Wu took the food box and said with a smile, "Brother Yu is so thoughtful! Okay, I'll go call them."
In the lobby of the inn, Lu Yu had just sat down when he heard several spirit masters at the table next to him whispering, "I heard that the Spirit Hall's Saintess is coming to Tiandou City. Tsk tsk, she's quite a tough character! She became a Saintess right after joining the Spirit Hall. Her spirit is ridiculously powerful. The Pope dotes on her."
"Isn't it? I heard that she's at odds with Xie Yue and Hu Liena, and she's directly snatched Hu Liena's position as the Saint Maiden. The Spirit Hall is almost in chaos!"
Lu Yu picked up the teacup and took a sip, a hint of interest flashing in his eyes, "Saintess? Ha, the drama of the Spirit Hall is getting more and more interesting.
With all the internal fighting going on, you still have the energy to come to Tiandou City to participate in the elite competition? It seems that there are many variables in this world. "
Xiao Wu brought Tang San and the others downstairs at this time. Seeing Lu Yu sitting there alone, she couldn't help but say, "Brother Yu, what are you mumbling about? Come over and have dinner!"
Lu Yu smiled and stood up, walking towards the crowd, "Nothing, let's eat."
At the dinner table, Zhao Wuji patted the table and said in a deep voice: "Lu Yu, today's competition is a group match. The rule is to win three games in a row to enter the semi-finals.
Tomorrow is the semi-final. If nothing unexpected happens, the first place will be decided tomorrow.
You all, cheer up and don't let me down!"
Lu Yu nodded, a hint of fighting spirit flashed in his eyes, "Don't worry, teacher, I know my limits."
Zhao Wuji glanced at him, hesitant to speak, and finally sighed, "You kid, you are always hard to figure out.
Well, go get ready."
Late at night, when everyone was asleep, Lu Yu sat cross-legged in the room, his consciousness immersed in the system space.
The system's cold voice rang out: "Congratulations, host, for completing the mission. The reward is the 'King of the Seven Seas' spirit ring. Do you want to claim it?"
Lu Yu did not hesitate, "Receive it!"
In an instant, a tremendous force surged out of his body, the soul ring flickered, and the deep blue soul ring slowly emerged, carrying an aura as vast as the ocean.
Lu Yu felt his soul power soar wildly, as if endless waves were roaring within him. Finally, with a slight sound, he broke through the bottleneck, and his soul power stabilized at level 50. Soul King! Outside the room, Zhao Wuji, Liu Erlong, and others were startled by this aura and rushed over.
Zhao Wuji pushed open the door and said in shock: "Lu Yu, you... you have broken through to the Soul King level?!"
Lu Yu slowly opened his eyes, his breath restrained, and said with a smile: "I'm lucky to have broken through, teacher, I'm sorry to have worried you."
Liu Erlong's eyes were filled with joy, "Good boy! A level 50 Soul King! Now our Shrek is more confident!"
In the distance, Prince Xuexing and Emperor Xueye stood on a tall building and sensed this breath from afar.
Emperor Xue Ye frowned and said, “This Lu Yu is indeed not a simple person.
At the Soul King level, at such a young age, you have a promising future."
Prince Xuexing nodded, but a complicated expression flashed in his eyes, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid that the Shrek people are about to rise completely."
At the same time, in another room of the inn, Dai Mubai leaned against the head of the bed, his face pale and with injuries on his body.
He whispered, "Lu Yu...has made another breakthrough.
Humph, we fought so hard to get into the top three, but he easily advanced to Soul King."
