Douluo Dalu: Start with a Heavenly Fire Sacred Judgement

Chapter 368 Timely Rain

Facing Xu Tianran’s problem.

Jing Hongchen frowned and said, "It's hard to say. This is just a round-robin tournament. For both teams, even if they lose this game, they will not be eliminated. It's hard to say whether both teams will go all out. And there are two qualifying spots. The biggest possibility is that one team will voluntarily admit defeat and grab the second qualifying spot."

Xu Tianran smiled and said, "Didn't the Red Dust Hall Master arrange tactics for our Sun and Moon Team?"

Jing Hongchen smiled slightly and said, "If the young eagle doesn't take off on its own, its wings will always remain soft. Let them do it on their own. In the past few years, my grandson and granddaughter have worked hard and grown a lot. I believe they will make the right choice."

Xu Tianran said: "After hearing what Master Hongchen said, I am even more interested. Let me see what they will choose."

At this time, the referee had already entered the arena. After announcing the rules of the round-robin tournament, he finally said, "The first match of the first group of the round-robin tournament, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy team will face the Zizaimen team. Players from both teams will enter the waiting area. Players for the first match of the individual competition will come on stage."

Soon, members of both teams entered the waiting area.

On the Sun and Moon Team side, Xiao Hongchen made a gesture to a young man, and the young man immediately jumped up and went straight to the competition stage.

This man is tall, with very broad shoulders and a calm look in his eyes, which gives people a very calm feeling. He can also be considered handsome. His hands are particularly large and his fingers are long. Just standing there, he gives people a feeling of considerable strength.

On the Zizaimen side, Wang Dong'er also stood up from her seat.

Wang Dong'er tiptoed onto the stage and floated lightly. The next moment she stepped onto the stage, the soul guide shield around the stage instantly rose up, isolating them from the outside world.

Seeing that it was Wang Dong'er who came on the court, Xiao Hongchen smiled, "It seems that Ji Lin has the same idea as us, and will not use his full strength in this game."

Wang Dong'er and the young man from the Sun and Moon Team who had entered the competition stage had already walked to the center of the stage.

The referee looked at both teams and said in a deep voice, "This is the first round of the round-robin tournament. Be careful. Try not to injure your opponents. Once I determine that the match has been decided, I will separate you immediately. No one is allowed to continue attacking, otherwise, you will be judged as the loser. Do you understand?"

Too many people were killed and injured in the knockout stage. The competition organizing committee also took on a lot of pressure, and the requirements for referees were much stricter.

The young man from the Sun Moon Team nodded, looked at Wang Dong'er and said, "Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy Team, fashionable."

Wang Dong'er also nodded and said, "Zizaimen, Wang Dong'er."

Wang Dong'er walked to the edge of the competition stage and just turned around when she saw the referee's arm falling down, indicating the start of the game.

Wang Dong'er frowned slightly. What was this? Favoritism? Was it so obvious?

As the home ground of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy team, it is normal to have a home advantage, but is it necessary to make it so obvious?
Even Meng Hongchen and Xiao Hongchen frowned. They also saw the referee's partiality. Although it was biased towards them, they were still very unhappy. Was it because they didn't trust their strength? Wang Dong'er didn't rush forward. Two gorgeous butterfly wings spread out from her back. The huge blue-gold wings covered her entire back and also rendered her whole body with a layer of gorgeous blue-gold. The golden spots on the wings of the goddess of light seemed to come alive at this time, and a strong breath of light rose instantly.

Shi Xing of the Sun and Moon team took a step forward and rushed towards Wang Dong'er. At the same time, a pair of soul-guided flying wings suddenly spread out from behind him. With just two steps of acceleration, he jumped high into the air. Four dazzling white lights shot out from the wings of the flying soul-guided flying device, pushing his body into the air like a meteor.

As it took off, a red high-explosive bomb was fired towards Wang Dong'er.

Just like the previous competition, soul masters are not allowed to use any fixed soul guides in this competition.

High-explosive bombs are extremely powerful, but the charging time is long. Shi Xing is able to release high-explosive bombs to attack while controlling the flying soul guide to take off. He is quite good at using soul guides, so it is no wonder that he has become the main choice of the Sun and Moon Team.

Wang Dong'er curled her lips in disdain, flapped her wings lightly behind her, and also took off into the air.

Although the new rules of this competition favor soul masters, soul masters with flying soul skills still have air advantages. Although many soul masters also have flying soul guides, it is too difficult for these traditional soul masters to operate the flying soul guides and fight at the same time like soul masters. Just operating the flying soul guides takes up most of their energy. How can they still exert their combat effectiveness? Only soul masters who are good at operating soul guides can do this.

Wang Dong'er was like an arrow rising straight up into the sky, but a strange scene also occurred. The high-explosive bomb turned around in the air and chased after her.

High-explosive shells with homing capabilities?

Wang Dong'er was also a little surprised, but this did not pose a problem for her. The second soul ring shone brightly, and a ball of golden light shot out from the light spot on the wings behind Wang Dong'er, instantly hitting the high-explosive bomb in the air.

Amidst a violent roar, a ball of blazing red light with a diameter of more than ten meters suddenly lit up in the air. The strong shock wave caused a large area of ​​air above the entire competition arena to distort.

Looking at the power, this high-explosive bomb is already close to the attack power of a sixth-level soul guide. This thing is indeed not simple.

Shi Xing released only five soul rings, two yellow, two purple and one black. His black soul ring was the Ten Thousand Years Sage Mark that Meng Hongchen asked Ji Lin to help buy at the Liyue Chamber of Commerce when he was studying at Shrek Academy. Otherwise, with Shi Xing's physical fitness and mental strength as a soul engineer, he would not be able to absorb the Ten Thousand Years Fifth Soul Ring. Only the Ten Thousand Years Sage Mark could allow him to have a Ten Thousand Years Soul Ring.

And if Meng Hongchen hadn't asked Ji Lin for help, the Ten Thousand Years Holy Mark would have been a rare commodity at that time, and even Shi Xing, a person from the Sun and Moon Empire, couldn't buy it.

Furthermore, there is no Liyue Chamber of Commerce that sells stigmata in the Sun-Moon Empire.

Shi Xing may not be able to obtain the best soul ring ratio in the end. The stigmata are more important to soul instructors who are not as good as traditional soul masters in terms of physical fitness and mental strength. This is one of the reasons why the three empires do not want the stigmata to appear in the Sun-Moon Empire.

The stigma is a timely relief for soul masters as it can reduce the burden of absorbing soul rings.
