Douluo Continent: I ushered in this era

Wu Changkong quickly suppressed the shock that had been showing on his face. His soul power surged, and a chilling aura emanated from the Heavenly Frost Sword. A thin layer of white mist spread out, dispelling the suppression of the supreme yang power on him.

A clear, melodious sword cry rang out, and Wu Changkong's fifth soul skill flashed.

The seven-meter-long giant sword shot up, transforming into nine swords that formed a huge circle of sword wheels, slashing towards Chu Ci with a chilling aura.

A black light shimmered around Chu Ci, and the scales of the gods, engraved with the image of a demon, appeared, one end of which directly enveloped Wu Changkong.

Although Wu Changkong's eyes remained cold, he had already used the Ghost Shadow Step, his figure like a ghost, leaving behind afterimages, and his agile steps dodged the cover of the Scales of God.

With his keen eyesight, Wu Changkong could naturally see the strangeness of Chu Ci's fourth soul skill, so he would not be easily swayed by the Scales of God.

But the scales of the gods firmly locked onto Wu Changkong, which was truly unexpected, because according to his observation, Chu Ci's fourth soul skill should not have the ability to forcibly lock on.

Just as Wu Changkong was filled with doubt, Anubis appeared beside Chu Ci, raising his scepter high.

Wu Changkong reacted extremely quickly, wielding the Heavenly Frost Sword, causing the Frost Whisper Ice Wheel to deviate from its trajectory and slash towards Anubis.

The Frosty Whisper Ice Wheel passed straight through Anubis, who then vanished with the wind.

Wu Changkong immediately realized that Anubis was a fake.

At the same moment, the divine scales that had been locking onto Wu Changkong suddenly transformed into a giant flaming claw, firmly gripping Wu Changkong in its hand.

The moment he was caught, Wu Changkong unleashed his second soul skill, Frost Mist, to resist the giant fiery claws.

However, the power of the ultimate Yang endowed the giant fiery claw with fierce and domineering strength. With this grab and squeeze, the powerful force penetrated through the frost and mist, causing Wu Changkong to groan and his body to pause.

Chu Ci seized the opportunity, his first and second soul rings flashed, the scales returned to balance, and a small silver dragon with auxiliary abilities flew out from one side of the scales.

A small silver dragon roamed around Chu Ci, scattering specks of silver light. The silver light entered Chu Ci's body, greatly enhancing his power.

The Heavenly Candle trembled slightly, emitting majestic dragon roars as its domineering power swept over. It once again glowed with golden-red light, spreading along its right arm armor throughout its body, eventually covering Chu Ci's upper body and forming a tightly fitting, jet-black armor etched with golden-red patterns.

Chu Ci's aura instantly surged to the fifth ring, and every bone in his body trembled. This was because the amplification was too great, pushing his physique to its limit.

A golden-red figure wearing a crown and bearing a face that bore a striking resemblance to Chu Ci appeared behind Chu Ci.

Chu Ci raised the Heavenly Candle, and the golden-red figure followed suit, raising his sword. His sword intent rose steadily, quickly reaching its peak.

"Sword, divided, four, sea,"

Chu Ci's expression was solemn. He poured almost all of his soul power into the Heavenly Candle and unleashed a powerful sword strike.

The golden-red figure casually swung a sword, a seemingly effortless strike. If a skilled observer were present, they would recognize that this was actually a total of twelve sword strikes, but the speed was so fast that ordinary people could not detect it.

These twelve swords are as domineering as the Heavenly Emperor when he first established the world, pointing out the landscape and dividing the world into four seas and eight wastelands.

A solemn look appeared in Wu Changkong's eyes, and his sixth soul ring suddenly lit up. The Heavenly Frost Sword in his hand seemed to solidify from its original blue light and gradually turn white.

His sixth soul ring, as black as ink, rose up instantly, covering his entire body. The blackness turned white in the next instant, transforming into beams of intense white light that swirled into the Heavenly Frost Sword.

At that moment, the Heavenly Frost Sword turned as white as snow, and Wu Changkong's body also turned the same color. Moreover, in that instant, he seemed to have vanished. A white light flashed by.

The two figures collided, and the audience below couldn't help but hold their breath, watching the scene intently.

The moment Sword Divides the Four Seas and Dance in the Sky's sixth soul skill, Frost Condensation, clashed, it seemed as if the world itself fell silent.

A violent energy storm suddenly erupted, and terrifying air currents surged wildly within the transparent shield. The shield teetered on the brink of collapse under the impact of the energy storm, but fortunately, Shrek Academy was wealthy and powerful, and the transparent shields they had built were all of the highest grade, which was enough to withstand the impact.

Shen Yi focused his mental energy, seized the opportunity, and flashed into the sparring arena.

Seven spirit rings shone on Shen Yi's body, and dark green energy swirled around her, combining to form a vine.

Shen Yi flung his vines toward the center of the energy storm. The vines remained strong despite being exposed to the eye of the storm and immediately tied themselves around Chu Ci's waist.

A gentle surge of soul power spread along the vine, enveloping Chu Ci and safely pulling him out of the energy storm, where he was almost unable to move a single finger.

Shen Yi held Chu Ci in his arms, a transparent shield appeared, and a faint green halo flashed around his body. Two green lights, like mimosa plants, floated out and merged into Chu Ci's body to heal her injuries.

A flash of silver light appeared on Gu Yue's body as she appeared beside Chu Ci, anxiously checking on his condition.

Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, and Xu Xiaoyan also rushed to Shen Yi's side.

Shen Yi smiled and said softly to Gu Yue and the others who were looking anxious, "Don't worry, Chu Ci only suffered superficial injuries. He's just exhausted because he's used up too much of his soul power."

Gu Yue's anxious expression lessened slightly, but she still held Chu Ci's hand tightly.

The silver dragon that Chu Ci had replaced still roamed around him, scattering specks of green light and consuming Chu Ci's meager soul power to restore him.

At this moment, the energy storm inside the transparent shield subsided, revealing Wu Changkong's figure.

Shen Yi looked up, his eyes filled with astonishment as he looked at Wu Changkong. "Senior Brother!"

Because Wu Changkong's appearance was really not good at this time. His snow-white robe was covered with black spots left by the burns, his two wide sleeves were torn, revealing his smooth forearms, and there was a bloodstain on his right shoulder.

Chapter 83: Combat Completed, Technique Breakthrough

Shen Yi and the first-year students stared at the somewhat disheveled Wu Changkong, unable to process the fact that Chu Ci had injured him.

Yang Nianxia muttered to herself, "Damn, I'm impressed by this class monitor. From now on, if he says east, I'll never go west."

Wu Siduo bit her lip, her eyes filled with resentment. She couldn't believe that the gap between herself and Chu Ci was so big, and she felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

Luo Guixing's usual smile vanished, her brows furrowing slightly, lost in thought.

Wu Changkong ignored the students below the stage who had different thoughts. His expression remained cold as he slowly walked down the arena, which was covered with sword marks and in a mess.

"How is he?" Wu Changkong asked in a cool voice.

Shen Yi first indicated that Chu Ci was fine, then hesitated for a moment before asking softly, "Senior brother, how are you feeling?"

Wu Changkong took off his outer robe, took out another outer robe from his storage soul tool, and while putting it on, said coldly, "I'm fine. He only caused me a little trouble."

Xie Xie lowered his head, pursed his lips, and muttered, "They're already in such a sorry state, it's hardly just a little trouble."

But as soon as he looked up, he met Wu Changkong's icy gaze.

Xie Xie forced a polite smile, secretly deciding that he definitely wouldn't choose to fight against Wu Changkong later.

Tang Wulin and Xu Xiaoyan looked at Chu Ci with eyes full of admiration.

After being treated by Shen Yi and the silver dragon, Chu Ci regained some strength and, with Gu Yue's support, stood up shakily.

Chu Ci leaned on Gu Yue's shoulder, inhaling her delicate fragrance, and placed her hand on Gu Yue's slender waist. She said weakly, "Teacher Wu, what was my score in this practical exercise?"

“Nine points,” Wu Changkong replied coldly.

After speaking, Wu Changkong glanced at the students of Class 1, Grade 1, and said calmly, "The practical training continues. Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, Wu Siduo, and Gu Yue, you guys go up."

Gu Yue remained silent, helped Chu Ci to sit down in an open space, and then walked onto the sparring arena.

Just like in the original story, Tang Wulin's group of four chose to fight against Wu Changkong.

Firstly, because Tang Wulin and Gu Yue are more familiar with Wu Changkong's soul skills, and secondly, because Wu Changkong has just finished fighting Chu Ci, his soul power is definitely not at its best, so they have a greater chance of winning.

Chu Ci sat below the stage watching the battle, lost in thought, recalling his battle with Wu Changkong.

Wu Changkong said that he had caused him very little trouble. Although this statement was a bit of an exaggeration, the trouble he had caused him was indeed not much.

Except for the final blow, which forced Wu Changkong to use some of his true abilities.

While Chu Ci was pondering and reviewing the game, the battle between Tang Wulin's group of four and Wu Changkong ended.

The four were far superior to Wu Changkong in terms of strength, and their lack of unity and cooperation led to their inevitable defeat.

However, Chu Ci glanced at Wu Changkong's brand-new white robe with a strange look; he had changed his clothes again.

In the battle just now, Gu Yue fought exceptionally fiercely, unleashing various elemental attacks as if he didn't need soul power.

Wu Changkong was caught off guard, and a large patch of his white robe was burned black by the fireball.

The consequence of this was that Wu Changkong's face became even colder and uglier, and the oppressive atmosphere around him made it almost impossible for people to breathe.

Chu Ci glanced at Tang Wulin, who was standing next to him with his head down, and said indifferently, "It seems that you still don't get along well with Luo Guixing and the others."

“Yes,” Tang Wulin rubbed his temples, “Luo Guixing and Wu Siduo are not very convinced by me and Gu Yue, the two vice class monitors.”

Tang Wulin smiled wryly and said, "I'm afraid only you, the class monitor, can keep them in check."

Upon hearing this, Chu Ci said softly, "You two still need to make battle armor together. If this continues, it will inevitably slow down your and Gu Yue's progress."

"Then what do you suggest, Chu Ci?" Gu Yue asked, sitting close to Chu Ci.

Chu Ci said in a deep voice, "Change groups. Apply to the dance teacher to change the group members. Switch Xie Xie and Xiao Yan over."

Tang Wulin stroked his chin, thought for a moment, and then agreed, "Okay, if they still don't want to cooperate properly, I'll ask Teacher Wu to switch Xie Xie and Xiao Yan."

After the live-fire exercise, everyone else went to discuss the production of the mecha, while Chu Ci went to the training room alone to continue creating her cultivation technique.

A semi-transparent Soul Master body prop floated in front of Chu Ci, and Chu Ci controlled the flow of Soul Power through the seven meridians and eight channels within the prop.

As the soul power flowed back and forth, a pair of two carp, one black and one white, appeared under the prop's feet, slowly swimming with black and white energy, much like a rotating Tai Chi diagram.

Chu Ci looked at the swimming black and white carp, frowned and muttered, "Although a soul power cycle has been formed, the effect is still not good enough. Let's try again."

Chu Ci continued to increase the speed of soul power circulation, and the two carp under the prop swam faster and faster, with black and white energy permeating the prop's body.

Then, "Bang!" The prop's veins suddenly ruptured, and blood splattered everywhere.

With lightning speed, Chu Ci waved his hand the instant the blood gushed out, and the blood automatically flowed back into his body, repairing his meridians.

Chu Ci tapped the wristband on his hand, and a screen was projected onto it. Chu Ci then manipulated the screen for a few moments, recording the experimental data.

Then, after calming myself down, I said, "Let's try again!!"

Chu Ci studied the cultivation techniques in the training room until he was kicked out by the administrator in the evening, and then he set off on his way back to the dormitory.

On the quiet path, Chu Ci walked briskly, passing the grove of trees near the work-study students' dormitory.

"Bang!" A violent surge of soul power emanated from the work-study student dormitory area, clearly indicating that a battle was taking place there.

Chu Ci looked solemnly toward the work-study student dormitory, where he saw two figures, one in black and one in yellow, darting out of the dormitory area one after the other.

When Chu Ci sensed the familiar dark and light energies in the air, he understood the reason for the battle.

As the two approached, Chu Ci took a closer look and indeed it was Yue Zhengyu and Yuan En Yehui, who had reverted to her girl form.

Yuan Enhui fled in front, while Yue Zhengyu chased after her.

Le Zhengyu looked up and saw Chu Ci in the middle of the road ahead. He immediately shouted, "Junior brother, she is an evil soul master who sneaks into the academy at night. Stop her!"

Yuan En Ye Hui, who was rushing out, naturally saw Chu Ci as well. With a flap of his demon wings, he suddenly increased his speed.

At the same time, Yuanen Yehui's first spirit ring lit up, and Chu Ci was immediately enveloped in a pitch-black space.

Yuan Enyehui was afraid that Chu Ci would stop her, so she wanted to trap him first.
