Chapter 208 The Heavenly Armor Sect Suffers a Complete Defeat
"It's not too late for you to admit defeat. I don't want to kill you because you can be considered a worthy opponent."
Three blue sword shadows radiated dazzling light around Jing Peng. With each step he took, the power of Hua Guang Liu Yun Po increased by one point. By the time he rushed in front of Han Jian, the level seven soul-guided heavy sword in his hand was trembling, like steel being forged, constantly becoming tougher and purer.
Two beams of light, one red and one blue, met on the Heavenly Armor Shield, and a violent explosion occurred in an instant.
"Boom—"
A ball of light, a mixture of red, blue, and black, spread out like a tide, instantly cracking the ground and creating countless fissures. It then let out a loud thud before the ground collapsed on a large scale.
The powerful shockwave from the explosion charred Han Jian's entire body, causing him to slam heavily into the soul-guided protective shield of the arena. His Heavenly Armor Shield shattered completely, and he fell into a coma.
Although the fifth soul skill was powerful, it still couldn't withstand Jing Peng's Radiant Cloud Breaker. Relying on the powerful offensive and defensive capabilities of his Soul Guidance Heavy Armor and Soul Guidance Heavy Sword, Jing Peng forcefully shattered Han Jian's Heavenly Armor Shield, a defensive martial soul renowned for its defense!
If Han Jian hadn't activated his first soul skill at the last moment, dissipating some of the impact, his injuries would likely have been far more severe, and he might even have been crippled.
The referee did not intervene to save Han Jian because he knew that the attack was not fatal or disabling. Han Jian refused to admit defeat, so he had to let Han Jian bear the consequences alone. If he forcibly intervened, it would be disrespectful to the rules of the game and also to the winner!
As the smoke dissipated, a familiar protective shield appeared around Jing Peng. Under the protection of this shield, he was not seriously injured. Apart from the fact that his soul power was greatly depleted and his face was a little pale, he was basically unharmed.
However, Han Jian is different. After this battle, without a month or two of recuperation, Han Jian will absolutely not have the strength to fight again. In other words, no matter what happens in the subsequent matches, Tianjia Sect has no chance of winning.
He slowly put away his Soul Guidance Heavy Armor and Greatsword, and left the arena after the referee announced the end of the match.
After five consecutive losses, including a four-game losing streak by their opponents, their own captain was also defeated.
There was no need to continue the competition. Tianjia Sect knew that continuing would only increase casualties. Their only hope now was the team competition, but they couldn't participate in that either. Han Yu and Han Jian were seriously injured, and the other three had injuries of varying degrees.
"We concede defeat in the individual elimination rounds. We will also forfeit in the subsequent team competition." After Han Jian falls, there will naturally be someone to take over command from him.
Won.
They won without any suspense.
It's not just the individual elimination rounds; continuing has become meaningless for them. They can't even gather enough players for the team competition either. Basically, all the seriously injured players have lost their ability to fight. Without their captains Han Jian and Han Yu, both Soul Kings, once the subsequent team competitions begin, they will face a one-sided massacre.
So they simply chose to abstain; there was no need for them to continue struggling with such pointless casualties.
Having lost the Seven-in-One Martial Soul Combination Skill and two Soul Kings, the team would be nothing more than fish on a chopping board if they faced the Sun and Moon Team. The elders of the Heavenly Armor Sect below the stage opened their mouths, but then silently closed them again.
"They seem stronger than we thought. This Sun and Moon team is too troublesome..." Beibei said thoughtfully, looking at Luoyu who hadn't made any move.
Huo Yuhao nodded and said, "Rachel defeated Han Yu without using many soul tools, and then she even had the ability to fight four opponents at once. This is enough to show the strength of the Sun Moon Team. Moreover, the even stronger Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen haven't even made a move yet, and there's also someone we can't figure out, Luo Yu!"
Throughout all the matches from the beginning to the present, Luo Yu has not made a single move. The only person who has an impression of Luo Yu is He Caitou, but because they haven't seen each other for several years and Luo Yu has changed so much since then, he can't figure out Luo Yu's true strength.
Shrek battle, Sun and Moon team...
Both Bei Bei and Huo Yuhao felt immense pressure. He didn't know if he could turn the tide like Su Yu did at the crucial moment of victory. The responsibility and pressure of being the captain were too great, so great that even sharing the burden with Bei Bei and Huo Yuhao felt immense pressure.
As the competition continued, the next team, perhaps "inspired" by the Sun and Moon team, launched a relentless and aggressive attack in the individual elimination rounds, aiming to weaken the Sun and Moon team's fighting power and increase their chances of winning later.
This is precisely why the later competitions became exceptionally fierce, with participants suffering serious injuries, disabilities, and even deaths...
"Captain, I have accomplished my mission. I won." Rachel breathed a sigh of relief and stood in front of Luo Yu.
Jing Peng stood in front of Luo Yu with a sigh of relief and slowly said, "Captain, we won."
"Let's go back. There's no need to watch the rest of the matches," Luo Yu said to his team after looking at the schedule.
"We really don't need to look at this anymore, we..." Lu Jiuyu said timidly, somewhat surprised.
Xiao Hongchen shook his head and said, "We don't really need to watch any longer, because our real opponents have never been these people, but the Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect teams. Apart from them, no one is our match."
Although Xiao Hongchen is not the captain, he was the previous captain before Luo Yu took over the team. Among his peers, he is the strongest besides Luo Yu. Moreover, he is the grandson of the hall master, so no one dares to question him.
"Let's go. Let's watch the Shrek Academy vs. Tang Clan match first. Xiao Hongchen is right, your only opponents are the Shrek Academy and the Tang Clan."
After returning to the hotel, everyone dispersed, while Luo Yu went back to Mingde Hall.
"Master, I'm back."
Looking at the young man before him, even Jing Hongchen, the head of Mingde Hall, couldn't help but feel a little surprised, but even more so, a sense of pride.
These are the disciples I, Jing Hongchen, have trained. Even if I, Jing Hongchen, pass away in the future, my Hongchen family will not decline, because I still have Luoyu.
"Are you confident about the upcoming matches?" Jing Hongchen asked tentatively.
Luo Yu nodded and said, "After observing for so many days, I have gained some understanding of the Shrek Academy and Tang Sect teams. However, I am not sure if they can win. It would be best to meet with you all privately. Only by observing the details can we understand their personalities, habits, and weaknesses..."
Upon hearing this, Jing Hongchen chuckled, realizing that his disciple seemed to have changed somewhat. "Just don't go too far, after all, it's still during the competition. But I heard you met with Su Yu?"
"That's right. Su Yu stated that he will not provide any assistance to Shrek Academy or Tang Sect in this competition. Moreover, he is currently in seclusion at an academy in the city. As for the Su family, things are relatively stable for the time being, but the situation with the Holy Spirit Cult is uncertain. Su Yu said that the Holy Spirit Cult might use his family as leverage to coerce him into joining the cult. Hall Master, if the Holy Spirit Cult really does that, it will be detrimental to us."
These words were certainly true, though they carried a bit of Su Yu's personal thoughts. However, Jing Hongchen would not doubt his disciple. This was also Su Yu's plan: to use Jing Hongchen to restrain the Holy Spirit Sect. As long as the Holy Spirit Sect did not break off relations, they would be restrained by the local power of the Sun Moon Empire.
"I understand, I'll keep that in mind. With your guidance, the progress on Number Two is almost complete. However, when will we be able to fully complete the experiment on Number Two?" Jing Hongchen agreed, but he was more concerned about Number Two at the moment.
Since Number One was stolen, they had to activate the backup plan Number Two. The research on Number Two lagged far behind Number One. If it weren't for Luo Yu's various unique methods to break through their research bottlenecks, they would have barely caught up with the previous experimental plan of Number One. However, it is still unknown how long it will take to fully put Number Two into official use.
"Teacher, there's something I'm not sure if I should say..." Luo Yu whispered, looking at Jing Hongchen's expectant expression.
Upon hearing Luo Yu's words, Jing Hongchen knew exactly what he wanted to say. Although some of his words weren't particularly outrageous, he was still worried that someone might overhear him.
Upon entering Jing Hongchen's private chamber, Jing Hongchen looked at Luo Yu and said, "Tell me, what exactly happened to Number Two?"
"Actually, it's not a problem with Number Two, but mainly with the experimental personnel. The progress of Number Two is indeed quite good, you could even say it's progressed to the point of being remarkable. If we follow the current plan, it will take at most twenty to twenty-five years for us to have a powerful combat force that surpasses Super Douluo. However, the shortcomings of the second experimental subject are still very obvious, because our research direction is wrong, and continuing the research will only be a waste of time."
Luo Yu couldn't help but recall the meeting in the research lab of the second test subject, where a group of level eight soul masters were arguing incessantly. If it weren't for the level nine soul masters there keeping things quiet, they would have already started fighting.
Although Luo Yu is only a level seven Soul Master in the laboratory, his status is extremely high. It is not because of his identity. Everyone present is a top Soul Master of the Sun Moon Empire, and some of them are even members of the royal family. Luo Yu's brilliance lies in his ideas, his thinking, and his unique research insights.
The rapid progress of Experiment No. 2 is inextricably linked to, or rather, due to, this feather.
Heavily in debt and the "forever" series.
If nothing unexpected happens, there should be one more; if not, then something unexpected has occurred...
Also, remember to vote and keep reading. If the data is good, I'll update more chapters, hehe.
