Chapter 11 - Chapter 11 King Match Mode

Afterwards, each of them chose a summoner skill. Lin Yuan selected Exhaust, making his role an assassin jungler; Daji still chose Flash, even though her fifth soul skill, Charming Fox Instant Kill, already had a teleport-like ability. With Flash, Daji now had two opportunities to escape. Taiyi also chose Flash. In King of Glory, the most popular summoner skill is undoubtedly Flash—it allows both escape and pursuit.

In front of them appeared a blue electronic interface, showing the three enemy heroes, their soul power levels, and summoner skills:

[Hero: Wang Zhaojun]

Martial Soul: Ice Staff

Soul Power: Level 53

Summoner Skill: Flash

[Hero: Han Xin]

Martial Soul: Spear

Soul Power: Level 57

Summoner Skill: Exhaust

[Hero: Donghuang Taiyi]

Martial Soul: Dark Devouring Demon Dragon

Soul Power: Level 55

Summoner Skill: Flash

It was clear that the system's hero positioning matched Lin Yuan's team. Lin Yuan and Han Xin were junglers, Daji and Wang Zhaojun were mages, and Taiyi and Donghuang Taiyi were supports.

The enemy's soul power was higher than Lin Yuan and his companions. Moreover, Lin Yuan's current soul power was only level 47, not enough to wield the Golden Dragon Spear. Daji, with four soul rings weakened, had reached level 58. Taiyi, without additional soul rings, had a soul power of 59.

From a raw soul power perspective, Lin Yuan's team had a slight advantage, but all three enemy heroes possessed a fifth soul skill unknown even to Lin Yuan.

This training match would be difficult!

"Welcome to the Glory of Kings!"

Following the familiar voice, the three began to move. Lin Yuan headed toward the wilderness, Daji went straight for Wang Zhaojun, and Taiyi followed behind her.

In 3v3 mode, support is rarely used, unlike in large-scale 5v5 battles where assistance is critical. In 3v3, support can feel cumbersome. However, because the opponent was Donghuang Taiyi, it balanced out the support capability.

Support effectiveness depends entirely on the fighting hero's abilities. If the opponent were not Donghuang Taiyi, Daji and Taiyi would be heavily suppressed. Furthermore, Daji is a late-game hero. If she continued to farm and combo, she could drain opponents' health quickly. Wang Zhaojun, however, could begin to pick off enemies as soon as his ultimate was ready, combining his soul skills: Freeze (3rd skill), Slow (2nd skill), and Ice Rain (4th skill) to take down the first enemy.

Lin Yuan moved to the upper-left wilderness. Three wild soul beasts, known as soul beasts in Douluo Continent, inhabited this area. Closest to the spring were two Tianji Antelopes, blue in color with white fur on their backs. Using his Detection Eye, Lin Yuan determined their ages: the larger antelope was 6,000 years old, the smaller one 4,000.

Nearby were Ghost Wolves, the largest at 8,500 years old, the smaller at 6,200 years old.

Finally, in the middle of the blue and red sides' wilderness was a "thief" soul beast, the Golden Thief, aged 12,000 years.

Because Lin Yuan chose Soul King-level combat, the ages of wild soul beasts were adjusted accordingly.

When Lin Yuan's Martial Soul engaged, the first soul ring glowed—Huo Qilin!

The unicorn's sharp claws, wreathed in flames, left five bloody claw marks on an antelope, still burning red.

These ancient soul beasts posed no threat to Lin Yuan. Soon, the two beasts collapsed.

Instead of appearing as soul rings, several shining gold coins flew into Lin Yuan, and his level increased to the second tier.

A blue electronic interface appeared, showing mandatory items for each hero. Lin Yuan first purchased Attack Speed Boots, which increased his attack speed and the casting speed of his soul skills.

Just after buying the boots, a female voice shouted: "First Blood!"

Immediately, the interface displayed: [Daji killed Wang Zhaojun, assisted by True Taiyi].

Let's rewind one minute.

Daji and True Taiyi left the spring and moved forward. Wang Zhaojun and Donghuang Taiyi joined soon after.

With Taiyi's first soul skill, Daji and Taiyi had higher economic strength than Wang Zhaojun.

Daji had just purchased equipment but was momentarily frozen by Wang Zhaojun's third soul skill. Since none of the four heroes were level 4 yet (only levels 2 and 3), and their skills were only at early tiers, the damage to Daji was minor.

The 3v3 mode in Douluo training differs slightly from the game, mainly in soul skill leveling. In the game, reaching level 3 allows leveling the first two skills, and only at level 4 can the third skill be leveled (unless the hero has four skills). In Douluo training, level 2 allows the first two skills, level 3 allows the third, and so on. Passive skills are excluded.

Once frozen status ended, Daji immediately activated her first soul skill: a flash approached Wang Zhaojun. The third soul skill Idol Amulet intimidated him, and the second soul ring glowed, striking with soul force.

At the same time, Taiyi used his second soul skill and with the third skill Third Hand moved in front of Wang Zhaojun. Just as Wang Zhaojun recovered from stun, the Third Hand stun hit him again. Meanwhile, Taiyi's second skill reached full power. Boom!

Wang Zhaojun was left with a single drop of HP and, about to use his ultimate, was killed by Daji's basic attack.

"I see… the spring of my hometown…"

"Seems your creator cut some corners when making you."

Heroes summoned by King's Glory also retain in-game lines. When killed, their lines are triggered.

Donghuang Taiyi immediately realized the danger and dodged under a defense tower.

Meanwhile, Lin Yuan, after killing a Ghost Wolf, moved to the lower wilderness and coincidentally met Han Xin hunting there.

Without a word, they started fighting.

"Fire Escape" first tested ranged attacks.

Han Xin was surprised that Lin Yuan's soul ring hadn't even lit up, yet he directly released a soul skill. Could this be a self-created soul skill?

Heroes summoned and matched by the system not only have strong intelligence in-game, but also think like ordinary soul masters.

Time passed quickly. By the end, it was clear Lin Yuan had the upper hand.

Stats:

Lin Yuan: 1/1/3

Daji: 2/2/2

True Taiyi: 1/0/3

Enemies:

Han Xin: 1/2/2

Wang Zhaojun: 2/2/2

Donghuang Taiyi: 0/0/3

Soon, Lin Yuan and his team destroyed the enemy crystal and quickly won.

"Not the main crystal!"

"Ding! 3v3 training victory. Rewards: one Soul Medicine Classic card, all three winners' soul power increased by 1 level, 5000 points."

"I'll just casually give this Chinese Medicine Classic to Master Taiyi," Lin Yuan said, handing him the book. "I'll study it for you, but you must learn it quickly and thoroughly."

"Yes, Master."

Back in the Star Dou Forest, Lin Yuan had grown impatient calling Daji "Master, Master." Previously, he had instructed the system to set summoned King heroes' names as "Master."

With the gained soul power, Lin Yuan's team progressed rapidly, especially Daji, who rose from level 95 to 96. Level 96 was the true first level of advancement. Lin Yuan's team was steadily growing stronger.

"Let's go. Daji and Taiyi, head to Sunset Forest!"
