Douluo; Zhongli Adventures in Mortal World with Paimon

When the entire team encountered "smoke" and "flashbangs," Tang San's Purple Demon Eyes allowed him to see through the chaos as if he were wearing "smoke goggles" and "flash-protective lenses."

The colorful lights could not obstruct his vision at all.

Without the advantage of the Seven Asura Illusion, the members of the Canghui team were like lambs to the slaughter, utterly defenseless.

Tang San charged forward with his Clear Sky Hammer, and soon, screams filled the air.

The fact that there were screams indicated that Tang San was holding back somewhat. Otherwise, he would have faced penalties for intentionally harming his opponents, which could have led to disqualification.

In a matter of moments, the colorful lights faded, and Tang San and his team reappeared on the arena.

The members of the Canghui team lay scattered across the arena, while the Shrek team, apart from Tang San, had not moved from their positions.

"Did... did we really win?"

Even Ma Hongjun, one of their own, found it hard to believe, let alone the others.

Dai Mubai, Xiao Wu, and the others stood with their mouths slightly agape, unable to speak.

Tang San had told them to stay put, and they had obeyed.

No one could have imagined that the battle would end in less than a minute!

The audience was equally stunned. The speed at which the battle concluded was even faster than when the Heaven Dou Royal Team Two had fought against the Canghui team.

"I told you, you're not good enough."

"You're not good enough today, and you won't be in the future either."

Tang San spoke with a calm demeanor, appearing completely unruffled.

The so-called Seven-in-One Fusion Skill, a forcibly combined soul skill, was nothing in the face of Tang San!

If he hadn't been concerned about these guys suffering severe backlash and potentially becoming idiots, Tang San wouldn't have even needed to use the Clear Sky Hammer to make the Canghui Seven suffer the consequences of their own fusion skill.

Such a powerful soul skill backlash would have left them either dead or mentally incapacitated.

Since this was the final battle, it was better to be cautious.

In the rest area for the participants, everyone sighed. In the end, Shrek had secured this point, and the Skywater Academy would not advance.

"What a pity."

"Shui Bing'er, given your age, you can still participate in the next Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition. What's there to regret?"

"By then, you'll at least be a Soul King-level powerhouse, right?"

Shui Bing'er was only slightly older than Tang San and the others, younger than Dai Mubai, and she was already a Soul Ancestor-level powerhouse.

In five years, she would undoubtedly reach the Soul King level.

"Who can say for sure what will happen in five years?"

Shui Bing'er shook her head, her expression unchanged.

"True."

For them, this Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition was their last. Failing to achieve a good result would be a great regret.

"The biggest regret of this competition isn't failing to make it into the top five."

After saying this, Shui Bing'er's gaze turned toward the VIP seats.

Everyone was puzzled and followed her gaze. Sure enough, it was that figure again.

"What, do you still have thoughts about His Excellency?"

They were all old acquaintances, and facing Yu Tianxin's teasing, Shui Bing'er pursed her lips.

She wasn't that "shameless"!

"I just want to become his disciple. Nothing more."

Shui Bing'er's expression remained calm.

Hearing this, everyone was slightly surprised, but they could understand Shui Bing'er's thoughts.

Among the younger generation, who wouldn't want to become a disciple of the Martial God?

Even the maid of the Martial God was the Holy Maidens of the Body Sect, and the disciples of the three Soul Douluo-level deans of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

Becoming the Martial God's successor would be an incredible honor.

As evening approached, the Heaven Dou Royal Two's position as the first-place team was unshakable, and the ownership of the soul bone bestowed by Zhongli was also beyond doubt.

Zhongli, seated in the VIP section, took a step forward and appeared on the arena.

"A person without trust cannot stand."

"At the beginning of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition preliminaries, I promised to award a five to six thousand-year left leg soul bone to the first-place team."

"Now that the rankings are finalized, it is time for me to fulfill this promise."

As Zhongli spoke, the entire arena erupted in cheers and applause.

This was a soul bone!

The Martial God kept his word. He promised a soul bone, and he delivered!

Truly, a sect so poor that all it has left are soul bones!

It was well-known that the Body Sect was not wealthy.

Only a few knew that the Body Sect was not as poor as it seemed.

Especially the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

They were well aware of the profits generated from their cooperation with the Body Sect each month.

So, the Body Sect was not as poor as it appeared.

Otherwise, how could their disciples feast on soul beast meat at every meal?

"A person without trust cannot stand. Listen, these are the words of the Martial God Douluo!"

"Write it down, make sure to write it down!"

"Lord Martial God! Lord Martial God!!"

"Heaven Dou Royal Two! Heaven Dou Royal Two!"

Being so poor that all they had left were soul bones was something everyone could see!

In front of everyone, they took out soul bones for their disciples to choose.

And in front of everyone, they awarded a soul bone as the prize for first place.

Such "wealth" was the envy of every other faction!

As the captain of the Heaven Dou Royal Two, Yu Tianheng was naturally the one to receive the award.

"Tianheng, you go up. I'm just the vice-captain."

Dugu Yan's words made her stance clear.

Although she was much stronger than Yu Tianheng, he was still her boyfriend.

"Yan Yan, I..."

The glory of first place was something his family demanded, something they longed for.

The honor belonged to the family, and Yu Tianheng was like a puppet, following every instruction from his family.

Dugu Yan seemed to recall something and said with a calm expression, "Tianheng, Grandpa has never wanted us to be together, but I refuse to believe that you would let me down."

"Let's prove to Grandpa together that I, Dugu Yan, did not misjudge you."

Their conversation was not hidden from the other team members.

Everyone covered their foreheads, looking pained.

They were aware of the situation.

But hearing it spoken aloud was something they shouldn't have witnessed!

Even the group of playboys on the substitute bench were now staring at their noses, pretending not to hear.

From the original timeline, it was clear that Yu Tianheng loved Dugu Yan, but his family always came first.

For the sake of his family, he could give up Dugu Yan.

Dugu Bo had seen through this, which was why he didn't support Dugu Yan's relationship with Yu Tianheng.

As long as he was alive, the Yu family wouldn't dare to mistreat Dugu Yan.

But if he died, Dugu Yan would have no one to rely on.

A woman like her would never accept Yu Tianheng having multiple wives and concubines.

In the end, they would inevitably part ways.

"No, your grandfather saw it clearly..."
