The Legend of the Dragon King

Qiangu Dongfeng thought to himself in his heart. ‘Trying to compare our inner secrets here? I couldn’t compare with the Shrek in the past but could it be that I can’t beat Shrek even now? Even if the Light Dark Douluo Long Yeyue is here, Shrek is just going to acquire another round of victory. By the time we start the two-on-two rounds later where the participants from the earlier battles aren’t allowed to participate again, who are they to fight against us?’

However, the people on Shrek Academy’s side remained just as calm and composed as before. It felt as if they didn’t care at all.

It was the fifth round now.

“Three, two, one, begin.”

Two silhouettes simultaneously rose into the sky. The person that flew into the sky from Spirit Pagoda’s side this time was a worshipper. He appeared to be about the age of around fifty years with a calm and heavy aura. His palms were double the size of an ordinary person’s.

On the other hand, the person from the Shrek Academy’s side was a man with a chubby figure. It was precisely Xu Lizhi who was an eight-ringed soul master now.

Xu Lizhi had a smile on his face all along. He always appeared to be completely harmless to humans and animals.

Yali could not refrain herself from asking Tang Wulin as soon as she saw Xu Lizhi make an appearance. “Are you sure about sending him?”

Tang Wulin smiled. “Xu Lizhi’s efforts are no less than mine. After so many years, he has been quietly elevating himself all along. Don’t ever underestimate him. He is one of the Shrek Seven Monsters after all. It’s not our glory that brought him to where he is now but he has relied on his abilities to arrive at this level. Elder Long has also been guiding him a lot. Trust me he can do it.”

Yali nodded slightly and did not speak anymore.

Everyone’s attention was focused on the situation in the sky.

Xu Lizhi was chubby but the expression on his face was rather solemn. However, he still appeared rather funny despite his seriousness due to his looks.

He was actually not supposed to be in the lineup and had just come out from Shrek Academy. It seemed like he appeared rather nervous there.

Was he truly feeling as such? Yes, Xu Lizhi was indeed nervous.

The competition against Spirit Pagoda today was exceedingly important for Shrek Academy. Even if it was not for the purpose of enrolling students, they would certainly still need to fight for the sake of revenge. If they were incapable of triumphing over Spirit Pagoda, then Shrek Academy’s reputation as the number one academy on the continent would be greatly impaired.

“You can do it!” He could still clearly remember the words Ye Xinglan whispered into his ears before he rose into the sky.

Ye Xinglan’s words immensely motivated him.

The old man from the opposite side looked at the little chubby boy before him. When he was rising into the sky with Xu Lizhi, he heard the voice transmission from the soul master in charge of gathering information in Spirit Pagoda who said that the chubby boy before him was one of the current Shrek Seven Monsters. However, the boy seemed to be some kind of food-type soul master.

Was the boy simply sent out to make up the number?

Due to previous cases of both sides admitting their defeat, he was under the assumption that the young Sea God’s Pavilion Master would announce that Shrek admitted their defeat for this round once he and his opponent had arrived in the sky.

However, he watched as both of them had already reached over three hundred meters in the sky from ground level and the opponent still did not seem to bear that intention.

Could it be that a food-type soul master was still going to fight by force? Was the boy trying to seek his doom?

“Please guide me.” Xu Lizhi politely greeted from the opposite side as he made an invitatory hand gesture.

The old man frowned ever so slightly. Cold radiance flashed in his eyes. In his perception, it was simply a disgrace for a food-type soul master to have the audacity to challenge him.

The old man did not speak either. His body flashed and he had already attacked toward Xu Lizhi’s direction. Two boxing gloves suddenly appeared on palms. The gloves were milky white in color. They fused with his arms as one and covered all the way up to his forearms.

This was his martial soul, the Boxing Gloves.

“This is Boxing King Douluo Da Mo.”

Almost every powerhouse capable of achieving Title Douluo-rank had a story of their own and Da Mo was no exception.

No one could remember his real name anymore. The name ‘Da Mo’ had been spreading from mouth to mouth all this time.

He was reputed to be one of the most masculine soul masters and was famous for being hard and righteous. He confronted toughness with toughness when he was young. He enjoyed engaging in such battles.

This was also compatible with the characteristics of his martial soul.

The Boxing King Douluo’s abilities were all contained in his fist. His palms were inherently much larger than ordinary people. He was also blessed with rich natural endowments after his martial soul had awakened.

Da Mo looked at his opponent who was just a food-type soul master. He was already a rank-96 Hyper Douluo this year and didn’t have the slightest bit of respect for Xu Lizhi.

He was feeling infuriated when he saw that Xu Lizhi had only unleashed eight soul rings.

This was the first participant sent out to compete in today’s battle who was not a Title Douluo-ranked powerhouse from both sides combined.

‘What sort of competition is this? This is a competition between Shrek Academy and Spirit Academy which is part of Spirit Pagoda. You’re sending out someone who’s only a Soul Douluo? Shrek really is having a lack of manpower.’

Their cultivation bases were two ranks apart. In the soul masters’ world, this was an utterly impassable gulf. Moreover, the opponent was just a food-type soul master.

There was only Qiangu Dongfeng from below that could not refrain himself from cracking into a smile upon seeing the eight soul rings unleashed from Xu Lizhi’s body.

‘I can see that Shrek Academy is truly lacking in manpower huh! Shrek Academy is clearly showing its intention to give up, right? There’s no way Xu Lizhi can stand a chance to defeat the opponent standing before him no matter what.’

Boxing King Douluo Da Mo enjoyed confronting toughness with toughness from the front so much that it had even troubled Qiangu Dongfeng himself. This old man’s fists were too hard and swift. Da Mo had always been propagating his slogan of crushing heaven and earth with his fists.

The parents and students watching the battle from a distance were also feeling very astonished. Even though they did not have much knowledge about the world of high-ranking soul masters, they still could tell the difference between a Title Douluo and a Soul Douluo!

“One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight… I am not calculating wrongly, right? Why are there only eight soul rings? Even though there’s a red soul ring in the end, there are only eight rings in total! That’s quite a small number. He’s a Soul Douluo! A Soul Douluo versus a Title Douluo, will he stand a chance?”

“I don’t know! However, it seems like the higher the cultivation base of a soul master, the bigger the disparity is between every rank. I’m afraid it’s not going to be that easy for the young chubby man to win. It’s only that I can’t quite figure out why Shrek Academy would send out a person with such a cultivation base to participate in the battle. It can’t be that they don’t have more Title Douluos, right?”

“Perhaps, this is a part of the plan? Look, he has not admitted his defeat yet so I think he is going to fight. We shall see how they fight then. I don’t think Shrek will be doing this at random.”

“Hmm, we shall see then.”

Xu Lizhi was naturally unaware of the rest of the people’s opinion in this battle. At present, his spirit was already completely concentrated on the opponent. He had both physically and mentally immersed himself in this competition.

The opponent’s aura was far more powerful than his own. Tang Wulin had told him earlier that his opponent could very possibly be a Hyper Douluo-ranked powerhouse. He would not stand much chance if he were to confront toughness with toughness against an opponent like this. He could only utilize the surprise element and instant outburst to possibly defeat the opponent with one strike and create miracles. On the other hand, Xu Lizhi was definitely capable of creating miracles.

Boxing King Douluo Da Mo had already arrived on a spot that was about a hundred meters ahead of Xu Lizhi in a flash. He threw a punch with his right fist into the air. The entire sky burst out with a loud boom at once. Golden flares gushed out from his fist. The smell of the flare arrived before Xu Lizhi along with a gush of terrifying stress.

Xu Lizhi was floating in the sky with a stern expression on his face. He drew a circle in the sky with his left hand positioned down while his right hand positioned up.

One could indistinctly see gentle white radiance lingering on his palms. When the circle was drawn, the light in the surroundings appeared to have slightly refracted.
