Chapter 222 Ultimate Showdown (Part 1)
Lu Jiuyu rolled his eyes at Rachel. "Fine, once the competition starts, you won't get a single piece of information about Shrek Academy. And don't come to me with your soul tool improvements or graduation projects either. Rachel, I'll make you pay for what you said today!"
"No, no! My mom is your teacher, and our families have been friends for generations. You can't do this to me! Lu Jiuyu, I was wrong, I was wrong..."
Rachel's face fell. He had only intended to tease Lu Jiuyu, but who knew this kid couldn't take a joke and flipped the table. Damn it, so damn it!
"Alright, alright, who's going next? Fang Wei, Sheng Hongyun, or Jing Peng?" Luo Yu looked at everyone, scanning the candidates that the Tang Clan had ruled out.
Lu Jiuyu then spoke up, "Captain, you can leave this personnel arrangement to me. You go about your business, hehe..."
Looking at Lu Jiuyu's reassuring smile, Luo Yu slowly lowered her raised hand and quietly sat in the spot with the best view, watching everything in the arena.
"Lu Jiuyu, if I remember correctly, you should be able to hold out until Xiao Xiao's soul power is exhausted, right?"
Luo Yu put down the design drawing in her hand and suddenly asked a question.
Lu Jiuyu smiled slyly, "Hehe, that's the strategy. After all, who can come out like that big oaf Rachel and reveal all their cards right away? If they did, what would be the point of the finals?"
"Alright, alright, as long as you know what's going on, the rest is up to you and Rachel. Just don't cause any trouble."
Luo Yu continued to revise the design in his hand. This design was the result of the collective wisdom of many top-level eighth-rank Soul Masters. Its content was so complex that it gave Luo Yu a headache. There were not only top-level eighth-rank Soul Masters, but also a group of ninth-rank Soul Masters, including the Hall Master, who participated in this design. As for why the design was in Luo Yu's hands, the reason was that Luo Yu was needed to guide them.
In the third match, Xu Sanshi faced Jing Peng.
This match was extremely entertaining, no less so than the one between Rachel and Jiang Nannan. However, Jing Peng ultimately lost to Xu Sanshi. In terms of strength, Jing Peng still had a considerable gap with Xu Sanshi, but Jing Peng still believed that when his soul power was at the same level as Xu Sanshi, he was confident that he could compete with Xu Sanshi.
When Xu Sanshi returned to the Tang Clan team's preparation area, he boasted, "See that? When I, Xu Sanshi, take action, how can we possibly lose?"
"We are quite confident in our third senior brother's strength, but we don't know if they will let Luo Yu participate. If it is him, I would like to spar with him and see if he is truly worthy of the title of captain."
Mentioning Luo Yu, Huo Yuhao's eyes revealed a strong fighting spirit. Since the start of the competition, he had heard too many legends about Luo Yu and too many glorious achievements about him. Among the younger generation of the Sun Moon Empire, Luo Yu was like a spiritual pillar of the Sun Moon Empire, supporting the new generation of the Sun Moon Empire.
Huo Yuhao longed to fight such a powerful opponent, and the Ice Emperor within him also yearned for Huo Yuhao to fight such an opponent!
"It's hard to say. After all, that guy named Luo Yu hasn't made a move at all. Although there are many different opinions about his strength, it can be determined that his strength is definitely above Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen. He is the strongest one in the Sun and Moon Team." Bei Bei said, looking at Luo Yu who was still calmly analyzing the design drawings.
"Yuhao, is there any way we can see what Luoyu is holding?"
Seeing Luo Yu so engrossed in the moment, Bei Bei suddenly grinned mischievously.
Huo Yuhao nodded and said, "Okay, let me try."
Huo Yuhao activated his spiritual eye, but as soon as his spiritual power approached, his expression turned somewhat unpleasant.
"What's wrong, Yuhao? Can't you see what's in his hand?" Beibei asked, looking at Huo Yuhao's somewhat unpleasant expression.
Huo Yuhao shook his head. "The thing in his hand is mixed with all sorts of spiritual energy. I can even sense the spiritual energy of several Title Douluo-level beings within it. Even if I get close, I can't see what it is. If I'm not mistaken, it's very likely a very high-level soul guide design blueprint."
"If there's nothing we can do, then let's just let He Caitou win the next round." Beibei stopped dwelling on the matter.
In the fourth match, He Caitou faced Fang Wei.
He Caitou wins.
Fang Wei suffered a crushing defeat.
In the fifth match, Beibei faced off against Sheng Hongyun.
Beibei wins, Sheng Hongyun suffers a crushing defeat.
Huo Yuhao, as the trump card, was naturally the last to appear. Just after Huo Yuhao stepped onto the field, Luo Yu, who was sitting on the viewing platform, slowly raised his head and looked at Huo Yuhao walking towards the competition stage.
At that moment, their eyes met, and Huo Yuhao felt a fighting spirit beginning to flow through his body.
There was not a ripple in his clear black and white eyes; everything seemed so natural to him. Through the crowd, his eyes revealed a faint sharpness at this moment.
Is he about to make a move?
Huo Yuhao's lips curled up slightly as he watched the young man, who had put down the design drawings in his hand, slowly walk onto the competition stage.
"Let me briefly introduce myself. I am Luo Yu from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy, and I am currently serving as the acting captain of the Sun Moon team," Luo Yu said, looking at Huo Yuhao opposite him.
"Tang Clan team captain, Huo Yuhao, please give me your guidance." Huo Yuhao's intuition told him that the seemingly ordinary young man in front of him was full of dangerous signals. He had to use all his strength to deal with this final match. Regardless of the previous wins and losses, he knew that Luo Yu was the most terrifying time bomb that could decide the outcome.
Please advise.
Luo Yu bowed to Huo Yuhao, and then, at the referee's request, the two slowly retreated. Once they were a sufficient distance apart, the referee announced the start of the match.
As soon as the words "The game has begun" were uttered, a tsunami of cheers erupted from the crowd.
"Go, Senior Luo Yu! Defeat Shrek Academy! The Sun Moon Empire will surely win!"
"The Sun and Moon Empire will surely prevail!"
…………
"Why does this Luo Yu have such a high reputation and status?" Huo Yuhao was shocked. He couldn't believe that someone he had never heard of five years ago could rise to such a position in less than five years.
A strong golden light emanated from Huo Yuhao's body, a white soul ring rose from his back, and Huo Yuhao's spiritual eyes suddenly emitted a faint white-gold color.
A white halo instantly spread out, encircling Luo Yu at an extremely fast speed. As a Battle Soul Emperor specializing in strong offense and control, Huo Yuhao's first action was to restrict his opponent's movements. He knew that Luo Yu definitely did not have a physical body as strong as his, and once his speed was restricted, close combat would give him a great advantage.
Therefore, Huo Yuhao immediately cast a weakening soul skill on his opponent. This soul skill was obtained by Huo Yuhao in the Star Dou Great Forest. Now, while Luo Yu was not making any moves, it was the perfect opportunity to unleash it.
As the halo enveloped Luo Yu, Luo Yu raised his hand and shook it. A layer of blood-red armor quickly spread across Luo Yu's body. In the blink of an eye, the blood-red armor took shape instantly. With his near-perfect soul tool, he forcefully broke free from Huo Yuhao's soul skill.
"Wow, what kind of terrifying soul-guided armor is this? It can even break free from Huo Yuhao's soul skills!" This scene made Bei Bei feel a chill in her heart. Huo Yuhao had made them fall for his tricks many times before, but this invincible move was easily broken by Luo Yu.
Before Luo Yu could make a move, Huo Yuhao immediately retreated. As Huo Yuhao retreated, he unleashed another attack of mental interference and soul impact. The timing of this attack was absolutely perfect. The successive attacks caused Luo Yu to lose her focus for a moment, but she quickly returned to normal.
The terror of mental attacks lies in the fact that you know the other party is going to attack you, but you can't defend against it at all unless your mental strength can reach the level of the other party's mental strength. Otherwise, you simply cannot withstand the other party's attack.
After being hit by Huo Yuhao's three consecutive attacks, Luo Yuyan felt that his brain was being disturbed, and he even lost his senses.
However, Luo Yu wasn't completely affected and broke free of control in a flash. He had been prepared to counter Huo Yuhao's mental attacks. Before Huo Yuhao could launch his third sneak attack, he was met with a cold, hard soul-guided cannon barrel.
The soul-guided cannon barrel emitted a faint black light. Seeing the barrel aimed at him, Huo Yuhao pushed off with his feet and dodged rapidly. As a disciple of the Body Sect, his explosive speed was exceptional, not to mention he was an invincible disciple.
Seeing Huo Yuhao's afterimage, Luo Yu decisively aimed in a direction and a black ray shot out. When the black ray landed at the target location, Huo Yuhao's figure also appeared in that location!
They both seized the opportunity and predicted the direction perfectly!
Everyone in the Tang Clan was worried for Huo Yuhao. Luo Yu's strength was simply too great. Even with Huo Yuhao's advantage in mental combat, he couldn't effectively interfere with Luo Yu. In their first encounter, Huo Yuhao was already at a disadvantage!
However, just when everyone from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy thought Luo Yu would easily defeat Huo Yuhao with a single soul guidance ray, the figure that had already appeared twisted again, forcefully avoiding the attack. Huo Yuhao himself absolutely couldn't do that, but with the help of his eyes, it was definitely possible.
In a split second, a pale golden light burst forth from Huo Yuhao's eyes. The light struck the ground beside him, and the resulting recoil propelled Huo Yuhao's body in another direction, thus avoiding Luo Yu's attack.
boom!
The black ray pierced the ground, instantly causing the ground within a radius of several meters to collapse. Keep in mind, this was a competition arena processed with rare metals and inscribed with many high-level soul guidance arrays, making it extremely difficult to destroy. However, Luo Yu's attack directly caused the competition arena to collapse within a radius of several meters.
Heavily in debt and the "forever" series.
It's sunny now, I'll have some caffeine to perk myself up so I can write something for you guys.
