Douluo Continent: The Holy Evil Emperor

Xu Sanshi: Kids, I have no objection either.

"A tonic...!"

When the competition started, Xu Sanshi even had to be carried up by Bei Bei and Dai Yueheng, looking like the Black and White Impermanence carrying a ghost.

The Star Luo team members who came out from the opposite passage were a little confused by Shrek Academy's formation.

"What's going on here...?" Huang Heyun scratched his head, his expression a mixture of confusion and wariness. Apart from Xu Jiujiu, the other five people had similar expressions to Huang Heyun.

"Oh, it's nothing. It's just that one of our team members thinks that people from your Star Luo Royal Academy are all worthless and not worth his attention. That's why he's acting so nonchalantly," Ye Qing said casually.

Upon hearing Ye Qing's words, the members of the Star Luo team immediately glared angrily at Xu Sanshi.

"Insanity!"

"What a loud tone!"

As the referee, Shattered Star Douluo sighed in disappointment when he saw that Ye Qing didn't seem to be planning to do anything this time. He had gotten the referee position from Heavenly Fiend Douluo Huang Jinxu because he wanted to watch Ye Qing do something up close.

Otherwise, who would be so bored as to act as a referee?

"No noise is allowed on the field. Both teams, stand back. You have one minute to release your Martial Soul. Do not attack without instructions!"

Both sides retreated, and the Star Luo team immediately formed a battle formation, releasing their martial spirits. Xu Jiujiu, as the core figure, stood in the middle of the team, with six spirit rings slowly rotating at her feet. A noble and magnificent crown appeared on her head, adorned with dazzling stars.

Soul Emperor Xu Jiujiu makes his appearance!

She had already made her move once before when fighting against the Imperial Academy, and she defeated them with overwhelming force.

It was thanks to the evolved Star Crown that Xu Jiujiu possessed!

Chapter 210 You also have a one-on-one arena?

Upon seeing Xu Jiujiu's martial spirit once again, Dai Yueheng's expression turned serious.

“Something’s not right,” Dai Yueheng said in a deep voice. “Xu Jiujiu’s martial soul doesn’t seem to be an ordinary Star Crown. Based on my understanding of Star Crown martial souls, it shouldn’t be like this. Xu Jiujiu’s martial soul must have evolved!”

Dai Yueheng had doubts about this when he fought against the Imperial Academy before, but he wasn't sure at the time. After returning this time, he went back to the Duke's Mansion to check the records. It wasn't until he actually faced it for a long time that he made this judgment.

"No wonder she was able to cultivate to the Soul Emperor level; it turns out her Martial Soul evolved!"

As the instigator of the long-term evolution of martial souls, Ye Qing simply smiled and remained silent.

Xu Jiujiu was also staring at Ye Qing.

The more she looked, the more familiar Ye Qing's face seemed. Eventually, it gradually overlapped with Ye Xuan's face in her mind. In the end, after Ye Qing used the ultimate transformation, the changes in his facial features were not significant; what changed were some of his physical characteristics and temperament.

For Xu Jiujiu, it was naturally very easy to recognize.

Not just Xu Jiujiu, anyone who is even slightly familiar with Ye Qing can recognize Ye Xuan's face if they take a moment to connect the dots.

Ye Qing had never shown anyone both of his faces at the same time before, so this matter was overlooked. But it doesn't matter, Xu Jiujiu will remind him.

"Execute according to the original plan!" Xu Jiujiu shouted, releasing his second and third soul skills, casting Starry Sky Technique and Star Blessing to bless his teammates.

Starlight Technique: Increases soul power by 30% for five minutes. During the duration of Starlight Technique, each attack is imbued with star attributes.

Blessing of the Stars: Increases all attributes by 15% and, during its duration, resists some abnormal statuses and reduces pain.

Finally, Xu Jiujiu used Star Guardian to give all six teammates a shield as thick as a blood mother before looking at Ye Qing.

Ding--

The sixth spirit ring lit up, and a star chain shot out from the spirit ring, connecting Ye Qing and Xu Jiujiu together, and then released a strong pulling force.

This pulling force was something Ye Qing could easily break free from, but he didn't. Ye Qing noticed the look in his eyes as he stared at him for a long time, and realized that his identity had probably been seen through.

In that case, let's see what Xu Jiujiu wants to do first.

As the star chains tightened, Ye Qing and Xu Jiujiu were pulled into the air and finally enveloped by a star shield. From the outside, only two figures could be vaguely seen inside. Furthermore, the star shield blocked all detection by soul power and spiritual power, making it impossible to know what was happening inside.

Star Crown Sixth Soul Skill - Star Sea Illusion: Locks onto an enemy, enveloping them and the user in a star field arena. Enemies who are not three major realms above the user cannot break the shield until a winner is determined, or the user can actively deactivate the shield.

Ye Qing: Hmm? You also have Iron Man 1v1 Arena?

Ye Qing looked at the starlight shields around him with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

He also has one of these, and unlike the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger in its true form, which requires the Evil God Hook to activate and hit before dragging the enemy into the life-or-death arena, he can drag the enemy in for a one-on-one duel with as long as he locks on with his mental power and the opponent's mental power does not exceed his.

However, there is a strict condition for the Arena of Life and Death: one person must die after entering for the Arena of Life and Death to end; otherwise, one can only stay inside indefinitely.

Therefore, Ye Qing has never used this ability since he obtained it.

Now, we see a similar skill in Xu Jiujiu.

Ye Qing could tell that this skill was not useless. Even though Xu Jiujiu was not a combat soul master and this soul skill was almost useless to her, what if she could break free herself and leave her opponent alone trapped in the shield?

Alternatively, when starting a fight, Xu Jiujiu could simply put the Star Guardian on himself. Wouldn't any enemy who couldn't break through Xu Jiujiu's shield end up in jail anyway?

This soul skill, in a sense, can be considered a super strong control ability, provided that the opponent cannot break free from the Star Chains that Xu Jiujiu started.

"Xuan, is that you...?"

……

Starry Sea Illusion pulled both teams' captains into a small, dark room for encrypted communication, while the other six naturally began a fierce battle.

With the support of Xu Jiujiu's three soul skills, the Star Luo team was strengthened in all aspects, which was equivalent to having six high-level soul kings. Even though Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng were both soul emperors, they still had one soul king member and three soul sect members.

Facing the six members of the Star Luo team who were on steroids, the six members of the Shrek team couldn't gain any advantage for the time being.

Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng each faced two Soul Kings, while the remaining two were being held back by Ling Luochen and his group of four, resulting in a stalemate.

Normally, Shrek Academy would definitely be at a disadvantage, but these guys are all overpowered. Bei Bei gave Ling Luo Chen a wink, and Ling Luo Chen, understanding, immediately used his fifth soul skill to freeze their two opponents and then casually put them into an ice prison.

Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi unleashed the Light Holy Dragon Awakening and Black Tortoise Awakening, which they had been hiding throughout the entire competition. The Black Tortoise Domain trapped the enemy, and the Black Tortoise Combination used shockwave to control them. Bei Bei then used the variant fourth soul skill, Overlord Thunder Domain, to send the two people controlled by Ling Luochen out in one wave.

The four who successfully escaped then teamed up with Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng to eliminate the other four as well.

Although the four of them took away several Soul Masters, including Bei Bei, before being eliminated, and Ling Luochen was also eliminated due to exhaustion of his soul power, Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng still maintained their full combat strength.

Even if Xu Jiujiu manages to defeat Ye Qing, she definitely won't be able to defeat two powerful offensive Soul Emperors after escaping.

This outcome was already predetermined.

As the Starry Sea Illusion dissipated, Ye Qing and Xu Jiujiu, with calm expressions, slowly descended from the sky. Xu Jiujiu turned and left, and the battle ended with the Shrek team's victory.

No one knows what happened in the Starry Sea Illusion, but it is clear that the two did not have any particularly intense battle.

It seems that the Starry Sea Illusion was deactivated by Xu Jiujiu herself.

……

"Xuan... is that you?" Xu Jiujiu asked softly.

"Didn't you see it all?" Ye Qing smiled helplessly, then waved his hand casually. The six soul rings on his body remained, but his aura instantly changed from a bright and noble state to a dark and profound one.

With the increase in strength, the form that used to take a long time to transform can now be changed in an instant.

Looking at that face that touched her soul, she threw herself into his arms.

Chapter 211 ends, a show of force.

"How did you recognize me?" Ye Qing asked curiously.

"You don't think your face is common, do you?" Xu Jiujiu complained. "You think you can be unrecognizable just by dyeing your hair and putting on makeup? If you want to hide your identity, you should at least disguise yourself, right?"

What a clumsy disguise!

"It's all thanks to me not telling my brother about your martial spirit, otherwise he probably wouldn't have even had time to wait for you to reveal your ability to turn adversity into fortune before he recognized you."

"Uh..." Ye Qing was speechless.

Using the "turning adversity into prosperity" tactic to show off might have been enjoyable for a while, but he never expected it would be the main reason his disguise was exposed. It seems that one cannot simply use extreme transformation to hide one's identity.

Fortunately, he also has a martial spirit.

When I go to the Holy Spirit Church later, I'll need to be even more prepared with my disguise.

"When you're out and about, you have to come up with some kind of identity to disguise yourself, right? I had no choice." Ye Qing shrugged.

“I don’t mind, but your Shrek Academy identity is a bit of a problem.” Xu Jiujiu sighed and said with a resentful expression, “I really thought you were from our Star Luo Empire, but it turns out you’re actually the child of an elder of the Sea God Pavilion.”

"Our Ye family originally came from the Star Luo Empire. Only Old Man Ye is an elder of the Sea God Pavilion. I haven't even joined the Sea God Pavilion yet," Ye Qing said nonchalantly. He was already planning to run away, so why would he consider himself a member of Shrek Academy?

Xu Jiujiu's eyes lit up slightly. She understood the subtext in Ye Qing's words, but the clever girl did not continue to ask. Instead, she changed the subject.

"So what are your plans after that?"

"I plan to go to the Sun Moon Empire. There are things I need there. My subsequent cultivation plan is related to soul tools," Ye Qing said.

"Can I go with you? The Sun Moon Empire also has businesses affiliated with our Star Luo Empire. With my status, I can help you with many things," Xu Jiujiu immediately asked.

But Ye Qing shook his head without hesitation.

What a joke.

If he were really just going to the Sun Moon Empire, that would be fine; bringing Xu Jiujiu along wouldn't affect his research on the Soul Armor. But he's also planning to visit the Holy Spirit Cult while he's there; he has a big project he's planning to work on.

If we bring Xu Jiujiu along, how can we have fun at the Holy Spirit Church?

Xu Jiujiu was a little disappointed, but she didn't pester him to go. Apart from the classic love-struck brain that Ye Qing had awakened, she didn't have any other problems and was a very rational girl.

Since Ye Qing didn't want her to go with him, there must be some inconvenience or difficulty on his part.
