Seeing the long spear of light sweeping towards her, Xiao Wu's expression changed drastically. If she were to withstand this spear head-on, she would be seriously injured once the invincible golden body's effect wore off.
With no other choice, Xiao Wu gritted her teeth and risked using her teleportation skill to dodge again.
However, this time, her luck wasn't as good as before, right as she activated her teleportation.
Di Qiu'er's lips curled into a sly smile, and the Eye of Destiny on her forehead shone brightly as she activated her third soul skill once again, intensifying the deprivation of Xiao Wu's fortune and the spatial interference!
"Whoosh!"
Space twisted strangely, and Xiao Wu didn't even have a chance to struggle this time. She was instantly teleported to the edge of the arena by the disordered spatial coordinates!
With a "bang!", Xiao Wu landed on the floor outside the arena. Unfortunately, at that very moment, the five-second invincible golden body on Xiao Wu's body also came to an end.
The remaining golden flames clinging to her body instantly lost their hold and burned directly onto her skin.
The piercing pain that went straight to her soul made her gasp, and the flames continued to burn away the little soul power left in her body.
However, the troublesome flames on her body dissipated and receded as quickly as the tide.
Because it was Di Qiu'er on the stage who gracefully withdrew the weapon, at that moment, all the audience members present, even the experienced host, fell into a deathly silence.
They stared at each other, mouths agape. No one had expected that this supposedly earth-shattering and intense competition would end in such a hasty and comical manner!
A Soul King of level 59 actually made a stupid mistake at a crucial moment, teleporting himself out of the arena and eliminating himself?!
To the average viewer, this seems like a huge, basic mistake.
Only those high-level Soul Masters could see that the reason why Xiao Wu made such outrageous mistakes one after another was entirely due to the influence of the strange third Soul Skill that Di Qiu'er had released earlier!
This is an incredible and terrifying soul skill!
After being eliminated, Xiao Wu could only return to the Tian Dou team's preparation area with a disappointed look on her face.
Lin Yuan smiled and walked forward, gently patting Xiao Wu's shoulder and comforting her, saying that she had done a very good job on stage and there was no need to blame herself.
Lin Yuan patiently explained, "Don't be fooled by the fact that there's only a four-level difference in your soul power levels."
"However, that Di Qiu'er possesses a rare dual extreme attribute. It is the pinnacle of light and fire. If a normal high-level Soul Douluo were to encounter her, he probably wouldn't be able to defeat Di Qiu'er, let alone you who are just a Soul King."
Lin Yuan rubbed Xiao Wu's head: "Even though you, Xiao Wu, are no ordinary high-level Soul King, it's not shameful to lose because of your attributes and those strange abilities."
Hearing Lin Yuan's words of comfort, Xiao Wu's gloom vanished instantly, and she nodded obediently.
Lin Yuan then turned to his teammates and asked, "So, who wants to play in the fourth individual match?"
After the words were spoken, a brief silence fell over the preparation area. Even Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuyun, who had already successfully advanced to the Soul Emperor level, showed a hint of hesitation in their eyes.
Dugu Yan knew in her heart that although she possessed the top-level cultivation technique "Nine Transformations of the True Dragon" given to her by the system, she was still at a disadvantage.
However, her martial soul has not reached the level of ultimate attributes. If she were to face the dual ultimate suppression of God Qiu'er on the arena, she would probably only be able to achieve a 50/50 chance at best.
Zhu Zhuyun, standing to the side, also faced the same concerns. Although she had already reached the minor completion stage of the Nine Yin Manual and had learned the accompanying exquisite martial arts techniques, her movements were unpredictable.
(Don't say that the Nine Yin Manual doesn't have the dark attribute anymore. The one the system gave to Zhu Zhuyun will naturally be more biased towards Zhou Zhiruo's version, except that it has additional martial arts skills.)
However, the Netherworld attribute of her martial soul has not yet transformed to the level of ultimate darkness, and she will be restrained by ultimate light.
However, neither of them were the kind of weak women who would back down before a battle; they both possessed the pride of strong women in their bones.
After only a moment's hesitation, the two stepped forward simultaneously and said firmly in unison, "I'll go!"
Looking at the two men, whose fighting spirit was high, Lin Yuan couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.
He joked, "Since you two are both so eager to go, to be fair, let's have you two decide who goes by playing rock-paper-scissors."
Upon hearing this familiar suggestion, the two exchanged a helpless smile and then began a simple game of rock-paper-scissors.
In the end, Dugu Yan had a slight advantage in luck and won the rock-paper-scissors game. Therefore, she would represent the Tian Dou team in this crucial match.
Just as she turned to go on stage, Dugu Bo, who was sitting behind her, suddenly opened his eyes and solemnly reminded her:
"Yanyan, keep a close eye on things later. I can clearly sense a pure superior dragon's might in Di Qiu'er's martial soul."
"This means her bloodline level is very high. When you fight her later, you must be extremely careful and not be careless."
Dugu Yan nodded seriously, indicating that she would be extra careful.
She secretly calculated in her heart that Xiao Wu had already consumed a lot of Di Qiu'er's soul power on the stage.
She was currently a Soul Emperor in her prime; if she couldn't even win against this, she couldn't possibly lose again, could she? That would be too humiliating.
Then, Dugu Yan walked confidently onto the central arena.
The image on the large screen immediately switched to display Dugu Yan's detailed personal information.
Dugu Yan, Martial Soul: Azure Phosphorous Dragon Emperor, Level 62 Power Attack Type Battle Soul Emperor.
Soul Ring Configuration: Yellow, Yellow, Purple, Black, Black, Black!
When this information was presented to tens of thousands of spectators, the reaction within the entire Great Soul Arena was strangely quiet.
With the examples of Xiao Wu and Di Qiu'er, who were already considered abnormal, as precedents, the audience's psychological tolerance has been greatly increased.
Now, looking at Dugu Yan's cultivation level of level sixty-two and her three terrifying ten-thousand-year soul rings...
Although the audience was still very surprised, they no longer found it particularly bizarre or strange.
It's fair to say that after experiencing one shock after another, everyone's nerves have become somewhat numb.
They could only sigh inwardly at how incredibly lucky the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy had been to manage to gather so many monsters together this year.
On the arena, Dugu Yan let out a clear dragon roar, instantly releasing her Azure Phosphorous Dragon Emperor Martial Soul.
Two crystal-clear, jade-like, sharp dragon horns rapidly grew from her forehead, radiating the aura of a dragon.
At the same time, her hands and arms were completely covered with a layer of fine, hard, emerald-green dragon scales.
Her ten fingers also became long and sharp, transforming directly into a pair of huge dragon claws radiating a ghostly, poisonous light, staring majestically at Di Qiu'er opposite her.
The competition has officially begun!
Di Qiu'er was not arrogant at all. The Eye of Destiny on her forehead opened instantly, and her third soul ring shone brightly.
Third Soul Skill, Eye of Destiny activated!
Faced with this strange lock, Dugu Yan sneered, and her third purple soul ring suddenly lit up.
"Third Soul Skill, Azure Phosphorus Berserk!"
This is a powerful amplification-type soul skill that can instantly boost one's attack and speed by 100%, and also greatly enhance immunity to mental interference and pain.
Taking advantage of the increased speed brought by the berserk state, Dugu Yan swayed and immediately unleashed the first ultimate move of the True Dragon Nine Transformations: Illusionary Dragon Step!
Once activated, your movement speed instantly increases by 100%! And while moving at high speed, you have a chance to become immune to enemy lock-on soul skills!
In an instant, her figure became dreamlike and elusive, moving like a dragon as she darted across the arena.
When Dugu Yan used the Illusionary Dragon Step, several dragon shadows realistically appeared around her body, constantly intersecting in Di Qiu'er's vision.
Seeing that her lock-on had failed, Di Qiu'er frowned slightly and instantly activated her first soul skill, Golden Lion Claw.
Golden claws imbued with intense heat and flames materialized at her fingertips, and with a devastating force capable of tearing everything apart, she pounced towards Dugu Yan.
Dugu Yan neither dodged nor yielded, facing the golden lion's claws head-on, and unleashed the second killing move of the True Dragon Nine Transformations: Soul-Shattering Dragon Claw!
She perfectly fused the domineering Azure Phosphorus Poison within her body with her surging soul power, concentrating it all in her hands, transforming it into an indestructible, solid phantom dragon claw.
After activating this move, her dual-wielding attack power increased by 100%!
Moreover, each strike, while tearing through the air, also carries a strong, highly toxic corrosive effect.
Most deadly of all, this Soul Shattering Dragon Claw also comes with a rare "shield-breaking" effect!
When the two claws collided fiercely in mid-air, the Soul-Shattering Dragon Claw directly caused double the terrifying destructive damage to Di Qiu'er's protective golden light!
"Bang!" Two violent forces exploded, and Di Qiu'er felt a sinister power spreading along her claws, forcing her to temporarily avoid its edge.
Having landed a successful blow, Dugu Yan pressed her advantage, her fourth black spirit ring shining brightly.
Fourth Soul Skill: Azure Phosphorous Poison Dragon Drill!
Dugu Yan spun rapidly in mid-air, transforming into a massive emerald-green tornado, carrying immense penetrating power and deadly poison, as it hurtled towards Di Qiu'er.
Faced with this fierce attack, Di Qiu'er snorted coldly, and her fourth soul ring suddenly lit up.
Fourth Soul Skill: Golden Dragon Roar!
A furious dragon roar, powerful enough to shatter the soul, burst from her mouth. The powerful sound waves and mental impact instantly swept across the entire area, forcibly interrupting Dugu Yan's offensive rhythm.
Immediately afterwards, Di Qiu'er found the opening and her fifth ten-thousand-year soul ring shone brightly!
Fifth Soul Skill: Heaven-Burning Golden Flame!
She unleashed a wide-ranging golden flame, accompanied by extreme heat and the special effect of continuously burning soul power, instantly engulfing Dugu Yan.
Under the suppression of the extreme flames, Dugu Yan did indeed appear somewhat disheveled at first, retreating step by step.
But she remained calm in the face of danger, instantly activating her fifth spirit ring and fifth spirit skill, Dragon Emperor Soul Devouring Wave!
A beam of emerald light, imbued with potent poison and destructive power, erupted forth, forcefully tearing a gap in the sea of fire.
At the same time, Dugu Yan unleashed the third defensive technique of the True Dragon Nine Transformations: Dragon Scale Golden Body!
In the blink of an eye, a layer of highly poisonous dragon scale armor, emitting a ghostly green light, rapidly condensed on the exposed skin of Dugu Yan.
This armor was so solid that it instantly increased her defense by 100%, allowing her to withstand the scorching heat of the Heavenly Golden Flame!
Not only that, the abnormal damage reflection effect of the Dragon Scale Golden Body was triggered instantly!
When Di Qiu'er seized the opportunity to get close and slammed her fist into the dragon scale armor, the armor directly reflected 30% of the damage, turning it into a tremendous force that bounced back at Di Qiu'er.
Furthermore, this rebound force also carries the deadly poisoning effect of the Azure Dragon Emperor!
Di Qiu'er groaned, forced back several steps by the shock. She felt a powerful toxin invading her meridians and had to quickly divert her soul power to suppress it.
As the battle progressed, the situation on the arena began to subtly reverse.
Dugu Yan's sixth black soul ring flashed, and her sixth soul skill, Azure Phosphorus World-Destroying Claw, unleashed tremendous power, engaging in close combat with Di Qiu'er.
At the beginning, Dugu Yan was somewhat suppressed, but in the middle stage, she began to fight Di Qiu'er to a standstill with her exquisite moves from the "Nine Transformations of the True Dragon".
The two exchanged blows, the booming sounds of their clashing soul skills filling the air, captivating the audience below.
Finally, the scales of victory tipped completely in our favor.
Di Qiu'er had exhausted herself in the previous battle with Xiao Wu, and now she needed to focus on resisting the troublesome Dragon Emperor's poison.
After a long and intense battle, her soul power finally ran out, the golden light on her body dimmed, and she had no choice but to raise her hand in surrender.
This exciting battle allowed the Tian Dou team to successfully secure their first point in the individual elimination tournament!
The "Nine Transformations of the True Dragon" technique displayed by Dugu Yan caused a huge sensation in the audience seats outside the arena, especially in the area where Thunder Academy was located.
Yu Tianxin of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Clan was staring intently at Dugu Yan, who had withdrawn her martial spirit on the arena.
His hands gripped the railing tightly, his eyes filled with undisguised shock and disbelief, his chest heaving violently.
His family heritage, which he has always been proud of, is the regional dragonification ability that gradually develops as the number of spirit rings increases.
From childhood to adulthood, he firmly believed that this was the strongest and most authentic dragon clan secret technique on the entire Douluo Continent, and the foundation upon which the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan stood among the top three sects.
But today, after witnessing Dugu Yan's "Nine Transformations of the True Dragon" technique, Yu Tianxin began to question her life.
Whether it's the Illusionary Dragon Step, which moves like a dragon and is immune to lock-on attacks, or the Soul-Shattering Dragon Claw, which breaks through shields and is indestructible, or the Dragon Scale Golden Body, which reflects damage and is poisonous and as hard as a rock.
Dugu Yan's every move looked purer and more domineering than the dragon transformation that the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family was so proud of!
Yu Tianxin swallowed hard, her mind churning.
Is this an ability that comes with Dugu Yan's martial soul after its evolution, or is it a self-created soul skill that she comprehended herself?
This is simply rubbing their Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family's dragon transformation secret technique into the ground!
