Douluo's self has a soul beast clone

At this moment, the arena was enveloped in a dense black fog.

Visibility was near zero, making it impossible to distinguish directions.

The fusion of Xie Yue and Hu Liena into the Enchantress displayed an exceptionally grim expression, as they sensed their domain being suppressed by their opponent's, nullifying its effects.

This signified that their opponent's Soul Fusion Skill was superior, enabling them to suppress theirs.

“Sizzle sizzle!!!”

Beneath them was a mire of black, swamp-like mud, emitting corrosive sounds upon contact and accompanied by thick black smoke!

Had they not been in their Soul Fusion state, their actual bodies would likely have dissolved into thick liquid before long.

Xie Yue and Hu Liena felt an immense sense of foreboding; their opponent's domain was exceedingly venomous and sinister!

Merely standing there, they could feel that not only was the water beneath them poisonous, but even the air was toxic… With every moment spent there, their soul power was frantically being consumed to resist the toxins!

Yet, they couldn't even locate their opponent. They were used to obscuring vision with dense fog, but now the tables were turned.

“So, what do you think of our Soul Fusion Skill?”

Li Chang’an's voice echoed from all directions, making it impossible for them to pinpoint his location.

Suddenly, the dense fog churned, and a colossal figure loomed within the dark clouds, barely visible. Even from the exposed scales and armor, its terrifying nature was evident.

Xie Yue and Hu Liena warily scanned their surroundings, anticipating a sudden attack.

Abruptly, the fog in front of them billowed open, and an enormous head emerged from the mist, gazing down upon them.

It was a hideous serpent's head, over two meters wide in diameter, its blood-red eyes staring coldly and bloodthirstily at them, exerting immense pressure!

“Still not admitting defeat? Your courage is commendable!”

Before they could respond, the serpent's head snapped open its jaws, and a thick stream of blood-red poison spewed forth! The target was the Enchantress formed by the two.

“Wait, we admit…”

The Enchantress formed by Xie Yue and Hu Liena was cut short as they were engulfed by the blood-red torrent of poison!

Meanwhile, outside the arena,

The dense black fog that had enveloped nearly ninety percent of the stage abruptly began to contract towards the center, revealing Yan lying on the ground. He showed no signs of corrosion, as his injuries were already severe enough that further corrosion would have been fatal.

Therefore, Li Chang’an had not included him when he deployed the domain, so he was technically still outside, not within the domain.

His Soul Fusion Skill domain was unlike Hu Liena's; it truly existed within another dimension. There was no comparison between the two.

As the fog gradually receded towards the center, Xie Yue and Hu Liena, collapsed on the ground and covered in corrosion marks, were revealed.

The black fog shrank to the center point, then suddenly split in two, reverting back to Li Chang’an and Dugu Yan.

At this point, only four members of the Spirit Hall team remained standing, none of whom were even Soul Kings. Seeing their trump cards defeated, they had no choice but to raise their hands and say, “Referee, we concede!”

“The victors are, the Heaven Dou Royal Academy!”

With the referee's announcement, the champion of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament was decided!

The arena erupted in cheers.

Simultaneously, the three unconscious members of the Spirit Hall Academy team were quickly placed on stretchers and carried away for treatment.

Only the Heaven Dou Academy team remained on the plaza.

“It’s finally over.”

A smile appeared on Li Chang’an's face. Not only him, but even his teammates, who had played minor roles, wore expressions of pride. They were the champions! Even though they had been largely uninvolved, they felt honored to have participated and won the championship.

At this moment, the Pope and all the titled Douluos stood up. Although Bibi Dong was displeased, she calmly announced, “The Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament's final champion for this year is—Heaven Dou Royal Academy. Congratulations to you, talented young soul masters.”

Li Chang’an and his teammates stood together, with their accompanying teachers and others nearby. All eyes were on the brocade plate containing the three soul bones.

At this moment, despite feeling extremely reluctant to give away such excellent soul bones, Bibi Dong, as the Pope, maintained her composure in public. She received the brocade plate from a Spirit Hall attendant, her gaze lingering on the three soul bones. After all, these had been intended for Hu Liena and her team, but who could have foreseen that the three Soul Kings would lose?

Then, the red-robed bishop acting as the referee announced loudly, “Please, the representative of Heaven Dou Royal Academy, step forward to receive the championship rewards.”

Who was the representative of Heaven Dou Royal Academy?

Not the accompanying teachers without names, nor the anonymous teammates, but naturally the Heaven Dou Academy’s trump card—Li Chang’an, the greatest contributor to their victory.

Thus, he confidently stepped forward, walking towards Pope Bibi Dong.

When he truly stood before Bibi Dong, he realized how astonishingly beautiful the Pope was. Noble, elegant, serene—all sorts of wonderful words seemed applicable to this woman. Although she was no longer young, the traces of time seemed not to have left their mark on her.

‘A decent appearance, but unfortunately a madwoman.’

Li Chang’an muttered inwardly.

Bibi Dong gazed at Li Chang’an before her, a strange light flickering in her eyes, but she did not offer any overtures of recruitment as she had to Tang San in the original story. Because Li Chang’an was the prince consort of Heaven Dou, it was impossible for him to join Spirit Hall. It would be a waste of words.

Thus, Bibi Dong simply offered some words of encouragement as usual, and finally said, “…I wish you greater achievements in the future. May you one day step into the Douluo Hall.” As she spoke, she handed over the brocade plate.

Feeling the powerful aura emanating from the three soul bones, Li Chang’an calmly accepted the brocade plate, his heart unmoved. As a transmigrator, his standards were very high. He wouldn't even glance at soul bones younger than 100,000 years.

Even though these three soul bones would be coveted by even titled Douluos, in his eyes, they were just so-so.

At this moment, he was surrounded by extremely greedy gazes. As soul masters, who wouldn't yearn for soul bones?

Li Chang’an practically walked back to his companions through a sea of greedy eyes, and casually stored the three soul bones into his soul tool. As the captain, it was his responsibility to distribute these three soul bones. He would deal with that later.
