Chapter 69 Chen Zifeng's Social Death
Well then, Huo, please begin your performance.
The seven students on the other side were basically the Shrek Seven Devils of this year. Their fate was truly lamentable. In order to make way for the main characters, they were directly killed by a wave of corpse explosions, and nearly half of them were carried away.
After that corpse explosion, Chen Zifeng lost a leg, Gongyang Mo was critically injured with the poison penetrating his internal organs, Xi Xi suffered internal organ injuries and mild poisoning, Ma Xiaotao, Ling Luochen, and Dai Yueheng all suffered internal organ injuries, but the most painful death was that of Yao Haoxuan, who died without a complete corpse...
Looking at the seven confident people opposite him, even Su Yu, who was once a reader, felt a touch of emotion.
Although people experience joys and sorrows, and the moon waxes and wanes, who could have known that the Shrek Seven Devils would run into trouble right under the nose of a Super Douluo? Is that reasonable?
Moreover, it was previously mentioned that due to Xuan Lao's carelessness and unexpected accidents back then, eight of the twelve inner court students died in battle. Now, the Shrek Seven Devils were almost wiped out. Can they really bear this outcome?
To be fair, Su Yu didn't think Elder Xuan could withstand it, because what happened back then had already brought Elder Xuan to the brink of collapse. The overlap of the two events would only exacerbate Elder Xuan's mental trauma.
But what's even more infuriating is that Elder Xuan simply wiped away his tears and then nothing happened...
I wrote your Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect, do you even know what humanity or intelligence is?
…………
Today, Ma Xiaotao had neatly combed her long hair into a ponytail, looking clean and tidy. She also saw Huo Yuhao, and immediately the corners of her mouth turned up, revealing a playful smile.
Huo Yuhao blushed with embarrassment. He remembered that day clearly! Moreover, Ma Xiaotao was the first woman he had ever been so close to, so the memory was incredibly vivid.
Not only that, Su Yu's expression when he looked at Huo Yuhao was also very meaningful, which made Huo Yuhao, who was already embarrassed, want to dig a hole and crawl into it.
Elder Xuan nodded and said, "Everyone is here. In ten days, the new Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament will begin. I believe you can guess each other's identities. That's right, you are the regular and substitute players for this competition. You are also the new and old generations of Shrek Seven Devils. Today, I'm letting you meet, firstly to get to know each other, and secondly, to let you get to know each other's abilities."
Then, Elder Xuan turned to Huo Yuhao and the other six, "Don't think that you're just spectators going to the competition this time. On the contrary, barring any special circumstances, you will almost certainly have the opportunity to participate. When our opponents aren't too strong, we will mainly field you. This will better conceal the abilities of the main team members."
"Okay, I understand. Elder Xuan, who should start with their self-introduction?" Su Yu asked rather inappropriately.
Elder Xuan nodded and said, "Let's start with the reserve team."
After everyone introduced themselves, only Su Yu was left.
"Why are you all looking at me like that? There are only seven people in the reserve team. I'm here to be a substitute." Su sat down naturally by the sidelines, looking at the seven dumbfounded people.
"You dare say another word to me, and see what happens!" Elder Xuan put down the wine pot and glared fiercely at Su, who was so frightened that he stood up immediately.
"Hello everyone, my name is Su Yu, a second-year student in the Outer Academy, a level three Soul Guidance Master in the Soul Guidance Department, and a level thirty-one Control Department Battle Soul Master who also studies Martial Soul."
After he finished introducing himself, everyone finally noticed this seemingly unreliable scion of a prominent family.
If Huo Yuhao, who was at level 26, was already surprising enough, Su Yu at this moment was what truly shocked them.
A second-year student in the outer academy, a level 31 Control-type Battle Soul Master, also a Soul Guidance-type student, and a level 3 Soul Master...
Is this really a second-year student?
Elder Xuan nodded in satisfaction, tilted his head back to finish the chicken leg in his hand, pointed towards the inner courtyard, and said, "It's your turn."
"Inner Courtyard, Ma Xiaotao. Level 67 Power Attack Type Battle Soul Emperor."
"Inner Court, Dai Yueheng, Level 64 Power Attack Type Battle Soul Emperor."
"Inner Courtyard, Chen Zifeng, Level 57 Power Attack Type Battle Soul King."
"Inner Courtyard, Xixi, Level 56 Agility-Attack Type Battle Soul King."
"Inner Courtyard, Ling Luochen, Level 55 Control-type Battle Soul King."
"Inner Court, Yao Haoxuan, Level 55, Control and Support Type Battle Soul King."
After the seven people finished introducing themselves, Elder Xuan let them choose their teammates for a round of seven-on-seven team battles.
Su was originally supposed to be chosen by Ma Xiaotao, but Su Yu repeatedly requested not to participate in the battle. Although Elder Xuan tried to deal with Su Yu several times, he was eventually kicked to the edge of the arena by Elder Xuan.
"Damn it, you old geezer, you're really wicked. I told you I wasn't going to be in the reserve team, but you forced me to come. The Shrek Seven Devils are all here, do you want me to be a third wheel?"
Despite his complaints, Su didn't dare say such things in front of Elder Xuan.
Elder Xuan was also completely baffled. It was such a good opportunity for training, but Su Yu just refused to go no matter what. He had already skipped two classes. If it weren't for Su Yu's aptitude and the dean's good reputation, Elder Xuan would have fired him long ago.
When Ma Xiaotao chose Xixi and Beibei, this fake (Jia) duo, Su Yu's expression became quite interesting. Even Beibei looked like she wanted to laugh but was holding it in.
After the selection was completed, Elder Xuan sat down next to Su Yu.
Elder Xuan, clutching his large wine gourd, chuckled and said, "Very good. Now that you've chosen your opponents, I'll give you ten minutes to plan your tactics. After ten minutes, the sparring will begin. The loser will simply have to shout, 'I'm a pig!'"
Seeing Elder Xuan's malicious smile, Su Yu asked, "Elder Xuan, which side do you think will win?"
As he spoke, Su Yu tactfully handed over a gourd of wine.
Taking the gourd of wine from Su Yu, Elder Xuan turned to look at Su Yu and said, "Since you didn't participate, I'll test your judgment. Which side do you think will win?"
Looking at Elder Xuan's disheveled appearance, Su Yu said, "Elder Xuan, if I guessed correctly, can I skip the competition?"
"Alright, if you guess right, I'll allow you to skip the game. Guess now." Elder Xuan was also intrigued. He wanted to see what this seemingly unreliable little rascal was capable of.
Su Yu pointed at Ma Xiaotao's side and said, "Senior Ma Xiaotao will win this match."
"We'll wait and see."
As he spoke, Elder Xuan took a sip of the wine Su Yu handed him, then widened his eyes and asked, "Where did you get this wine? I've never tasted it before!"
"I have a whole bunch of even better ones at home. If you like to drink them, I'll have my family bring some over for you to try?"
Just kidding, my family has all kinds of alcohol. Not to mention alcohol, we even have a huge pile of the imperial wine that the emperor drank...
As he spoke, Su Yu took out several jars from his soul tool and placed them in front of Elder Xuan, the meaning of which was clear: "These are for you."
Elder Xuan didn't stand on ceremony and put away all the jars of fine wine, continuing to watch the match.
However, just after Huo Gua released his Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, Elder Xuan spat out a mouthful of wine. If Su Yu hadn't anticipated this and moved aside to avoid the spray that was carried by the wind, he would have been in serious trouble.
"pause.",
Elder Xuan rushed onto the stage and immediately began to examine Huo Yuhao. However, Huo Yuhao used a series of verbal attacks to shift the blame to his second soul skill, Simulation.
The matches continued, and some ended before they even started. In terms of misery, Ling Luochen was the most unlucky, as her ice attribute was completely and mercilessly suppressed by Huo Yuhao's ultimate ice.
After a brief encounter, Ling Luochen left the arena and sat near Elder Xuan, watching the match with Su Yu.
However, this time there was no Martial Soul Fusion Technique. With Huo Yuhao secretly activating a trace of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm's spiritual essence, Chen Zifeng was momentarily dazed. Although Ma Xiaotao's side was eliminated one after another in this match, she ultimately won the victory in a thrilling way.
Although it was a narrow victory, it was still surprising that someone with four students from the outer academy defeated Dai Yueheng, who had three students from the outer academy.
Moreover, by the end, Ma Xiaotao's side still had four people left.
Elder Xuan descended from the sky with the students he had rescued from the arena, a slight smile on his face, and said, "Hurry up, the losers accept their punishment, and I'll give you another chance."
A series of "I'm a pig" rang out. Su, sitting in the stands, tried hard to suppress his laughter. There's a saying that goes, "Do you know how painful it is to hold back laughter in bed in the middle of the night?"
"You actually guessed right, kid. If you're really that capable, try guessing again." Elder Xuan looked at Su Yu with some surprise, as if he hadn't expected this outcome.
If this were a gambling game, Su could probably bankrupt the bookmaker.
After everyone recovered, the second competition began, with Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao switching places with Jiang Nannan and Yao Haoxuan.
"I think Senior Dai Yueheng will win this time." Su Yu calmly set up a fire next to him and started roasting the meat.
Elder Xuan looked at Su Yu with a mixture of amusement and exasperation, truly unsure whether having such a candidate was a good thing or a bad thing. "As the old saying goes, if you're wrong, you have to go."
"It's alright, just wait and see, don't rush."
Su was leisurely grilling the meat, completely unconcerned that he might be wrong.
If you lose, you, Huo, might as well go find a tofu block and kill yourself. If you lose even with such a great protagonist's halo, then what kind of protagonist are you?
However, something outrageous happened. Ever since Huo Yuhao joined Dai Yueheng's side, Ling Luochen, who was originally suppressed by Huo Yuhao's ultimate ice, has become the ultimate ice under Huo Yuhao's amplification.
The original ice-attribute Soul King instantly transformed into an Ice Queen who controlled the entire arena, and this battle was even more perfect than the previous one.
Victory!
Driven by curiosity, Elder Xuan asked, "What the hell? How did you know that, kid?"
Su Yu calmly took a bite of the grilled meat and said, "Just a guess."
Elder Xuan: "…………"
Then another string of "I'm a pig" rang out.
However, just as Elder Xuan was about to announce that everyone would depart for Xingluo City the next day, Chen Zifeng suddenly spoke up: "Elder Xuan, isn't there another junior brother here? Why don't we let him give it a try as well?"
I'll test your mother's leg, Chen Zifeng, if you can talk, shut your mouth!
Despite his complaints, Su really didn't expect to be betrayed by the meddlesome Chen Zifeng.
However, Chen Zifeng's words did indeed have the effect of backstabbing, and everyone's attention turned to Su Yu.
Elder Xuan also became interested, and holding his wine gourd, he said, "Alright, Chen Zifeng, you go and give Su Yu a run for his money. Su Yu, if you don't perform well enough to satisfy me, you have to call me a pig. Chen Zifeng, suppress your strength to the Soul Venerable level. If you lose, you do the same."
"Elder Xuan, this isn't fair. Even if I've suppressed myself to the Soul Venerable level, I'm still far superior to ordinary Soul Venerables. Even Soul Masters might not be my match. It's not fair to make me compete with Junior Brother Su Yu." Chen Zifeng was stunned. Making him fight this second-year junior brother, even if he won, would probably be an dishonorable victory.
Elder Xuan waved his hand impatiently and said, "Shut up. I'm giving an order, not asking for your opinions. Chen Zifeng, you are only allowed to use your first and second soul skills. Now, start the match immediately."
Chen Zifeng stood reluctantly in the same spot as before, while Su Yu opposite him had a very interesting expression.
"Wang Dong, who do you think will win?" He Caitou asked, looking at Wang Dong.
The only person He Caitou was familiar with was Wang Dong. Although He Caitou had also joined the Tang Clan, he really didn't have much interaction with Bei Bei.
Looking at Su Yu's maniacal laughter, Wang Dong couldn't help but feel sorry for Chen Zifeng: "Brother He, I think Su Yu will win."
"I think Chen Zifeng will win," Ma Xiaotao said from the side.
She didn't believe that Chen Zifeng, an inner court student, would lose to Su Yu when they were of equal strength.
"I also think Su Yu will win." He Caitou has always had a deep understanding of Su Yu's strength, especially after sparring with Su Yu in the Soul Guidance Department last time.
In that sparring match, although Su Yu still lost, He Caitou also won by a narrow margin. If Su Yu's teleportation range hadn't been limited, he really would have lost.
"Then, Junior Brother Su Yu, I'm sorry." Standing on the competition field, Chen Zifeng released his martial spirit.
His martial soul is the Soul-Chasing Sword, his first soul skill is Sharpness, and his second soul skill is Break.
Su Yu also released his martial soul. He did not intend to let everyone discover his secret, but instead misled them. Under everyone's gaze, Su Yu released his mirror martial soul, with three spirit rings, two yellow and one purple.
It's considered an optimal configuration, but no one would guess what the age limit of Su Yu's third spirit ring is.
Without saying a word, Chen Zifeng slashed at Su Yu with his sword. He thought it would be a one-sided battle, but the reality was far from as easy as he had imagined.
With a single strike, Chen Zifeng cleaved the ground, creating several cracks, but Su Yu's figure vanished without a trace.
"Elder Xuan, may I use a soul tool? I am also a core disciple of the Soul Guidance Department." Standing twenty meters away, Su Yu looked at Elder Xuan outside the arena and asked.
"Since you are a Soul Master, you can use a Soul Tool."
Having obtained Elder Xuan's permission, Su Yu had no more scruples. "Fine, so you betrayed me, kid. It's time for revenge. You pig-headed senior, prepare to die!"
Chen Zifeng's first and second spirit rings lit up simultaneously. With the enhancement of the two spirit skills, the already sharp Soul Chasing Sword became even more destructive.
Although Chen Zifeng suppressed his soul power, his speed was not slow. In just twenty meters, he rushed to Su Yu's side in an instant.
The Soul-Chasing Sword seemed to be truly chasing a soul, slashing directly at Su Yu. However, this time Su Yu did not choose to teleport away. A black mist spread out, and Chen Zifeng immediately lost his target. When the black mist dissipated, two Su Yus appeared on the field.
"This, this..."
This scene left Ma Xiaotao dumbfounded. Was this really a second-year student?
Just as Chen Zifeng's gaze fell on Su Yu again, four energy-gathering soul-guided cannons simultaneously aimed at Chen Zifeng.
Boom, boom, boom, boom!
Four soul-guided cannons were fired at Chen Zifeng in succession, but he did not panic at all. Chen Zifeng raised his hand and waved his hand, shooting out the Soul-Chasing Sword as well. Then, he moved his right hand sword fingers in succession, controlling the sword in mid-air, and directly cut the four soul-guided energy cannons in half.
Just as he was about to control the Soul-Chasing Sword again, Su Yu appeared behind him, holding two short swords made up of many fragments in his hands.
"I'm so sorry, senior!"
A pair of short swords stabbed towards Chen Zifeng's back. Chen Zifeng stomped heavily on his feet and staggered backward. Just as he was about to summon back his Soul Chasing Sword, he suddenly felt a violent whooshing sound behind him.
He instinctively dodged to the right, only to find that the spot where he had originally appeared had been blasted into a crater by two soul-guided energy cannons.
Two people? Which one is the real one?
Not only Chen Zifeng, but everyone present was also confused. Who was the original body and who was the clone?
"This little guy is quite capable, but he needs to change his temper and personality." Xuan Lao looked at Chen Zifeng, who was starting to fall into a passive position on the field, and began to pay attention to this battle.
"Fragmentation Storm!"
After dodging several times, a somewhat disheveled Chen Zifeng finally grasped the Soul-Chasing Sword in his hand. Facing Su Yu's thrusting twin swords, Chen Zifeng swept his sword horizontally, shattering Su Yu's twin swords into countless flying fragments.
"It seems the outcome is already decided. These two junior brothers may be disappointed." Dai Yueheng looked at the broken twin swords in Su Yu's hands. He was not optimistic about Su Yu either. After all, even if an inner court student suppressed his soul power, he could not possibly be a second-year outer court student who could contend with him.
Countless fragments began to appear around Chen Zifeng. Su Yu stepped back, increasing the distance between himself and Chen Zifeng. He then clasped his hands together, and the sharp fragments began to swirl around Chen Zifeng, confining him to the center of the fragment vortex.
Chen Zifeng could not choose to sit and wait for death. He gripped the Soul-Chasing Sword and kept attacking. The storm of fragments around him was constantly being broken by Chen Zifeng's exquisite attacks. But as soon as there was the slightest opening, other fragments would immediately fill the gap.
This storm of fragments was like a prison, locking Chen Zifeng firmly inside.
As time went by, Chen Zifeng did not disappoint others. With the support of his first and second soul skills, he broke through the blockade with a single sword strike and headed straight for Su Yu.
"Good timing!"
Su Yu clenched his fists, and a large number of fragments appeared in front of him at an astonishing speed, quickly forming a heavy sword.
The Fragmented Heavy Sword and the Soul-Chasing Sword clashed fiercely, and both of them took a step back. But the next moment, Chen Zifeng realized that something was wrong. Su Yu, who was fighting him, seemed to be acting strangely, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what was wrong.
Perhaps it was his fighting instinct that made Chen Zifeng put aside his underestimation of his opponent. He knew that the junior in front of him was definitely not an ordinary Soul Master, otherwise he wouldn't have made him feel uneasy.
"town!"
With a loud shout, Su Yu charged at Chen Zifeng again, wielding his heavy sword, and the two instantly became locked in a stalemate.
In terms of strength, the two were evenly matched, neither able to gain the upper hand. However, everyone else was waiting for Su Yu's other soul skills.
Throughout the entire process, even with the enhancement of his first and second soul skills, Chen Zifeng only managed to achieve a draw with Su Yu, and he only used his first and second soul skills, failing to activate his three soul rings for a long time.
At this moment, a giant sword slowly took shape in the sky and fell towards Chen Zifeng as if it were a divine punishment.
Looking at the giant sword that was several meters long, even Chen Zifeng was quite frightened. His years of combat instincts told him that if he tried to take the sword, he would be injured, or even die in his current state!
The more powerful a Soul Master is, the more often the outcome can be decided in an instant. It must be said that Chen Zifeng, as an inner court student, has not wasted his years of study. At the last moment when the giant sword fell, he dodged the fatal blow, but his back was also cut by the sword with a shallow wound.
"I'm so sorry, senior!"
A familiar voice rang out beside Chen Zifeng, and Su Yu punched Chen Zifeng in the ribs with his fist.
Chen Zifeng shuddered instantly, a wave of pain spreading through his body, the intense pain stimulating his brain.
However, the matter did not end there. Before Chen Zifeng had even stopped rising into the air, Su Yu appeared and kicked Chen Zifeng even higher. The kick landed on Chen Zifeng's lower abdomen, almost causing him to vomit.
Chen Zifeng, who was suspended in the air, was constantly being punched and kicked by Su Yu and his clone. If it weren't for the fact that he was a senior, Su Yu would have really wanted to use his short sword to give him a bone-scraping meal.
You think fighting me is bullying? Fine, this time I'll teach you a lesson. Don't look down on me!
And so, Chen Zifeng, who was stunned by the beating, remained suspended in the air. Su Yu hadn't actually used his martial spirit this time, and the feeling of each punch landing was quite satisfying.
It feels so good to hit someone without using your martial soul! No wonder Zhao Wuji had such a deep impression of it.
Chen Zifeng, who had tried to show off but ended up getting beaten up instead, felt utterly humiliated. He was the one who had bullied others before, but now he was being humiliated by a second-year junior, and in a brutal way that involved real punches and left no room for his martial spirit...
"Alright, that's enough." Xuan Lao's voice came from outside the arena, and Su Yu finally stopped, then Chen Zifeng was slammed to the ground...
The others were stunned by the scene, with Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi's expressions being particularly interesting; their jaws almost dropped to the ground.
"This, these are second-year students?" Not only were the original seven main characters stunned, but even the six from the inner courtyard were bewildered.
As for Chen Zifeng, who fell to the ground, he simply pretended to be unconscious.
"You're a substitute? Why don't you go be on the reserve team?" Elder Xuan lifted Chen Zifeng up from the ground. If Elder Xuan hadn't been watching, Chen Zifeng would have already used more soul power than a Soul Master.
"I told you I'm just here as a substitute. As for the reserve team, I really don't want to participate. I just want to study my soul tool. If I hadn't promised Wang Dong that I would participate in the training, I think I would have almost finished studying my soul tool."
Su said this, but in his heart he was complaining. At this rate, he thought he would be dragged into the Shrek Academy inspection team as a volunteer.
No way, I'm not! You're illegally employing child laborers. I'm a minor. You're breaking the law, you know that?
"Alright, stop lying on the ground and killing yourself. Get up for me!" Xuan Lao said, tossing Chen Zifeng aside.
He had already examined Chen Zifeng's injuries; there were some internal injuries and some external injuries, but they were not serious.
"Well……"
Chen Zifeng reluctantly stood up, feeling as if he could never hold his head up in front of Ma Xiaotao and the others again.
A student from the Inner Academy actually lost to a second-year student from the Outer Academy. To make matters worse, he had the audacity to suggest that Su Yu give it a try.
Sure enough, I died after trying it...
This time, he's really gone...
"Shouldn't you fulfill Elder Xuan's promise, senior?"
Su Yu looked at Chen Zifeng with an innocent expression, and emphasized the words "Elder Xuan" in his voice.
"I'm a pig!" In the end, Chen Zifeng shouted those words again in grief and indignation. How shameful! This time, he had lost face beyond measure.
Not only the seven main characters, but even Chen Zifeng's teammates were in stitches, and Ma Xiaotao was laughing so hard she was clutching her stomach.
"Chen Zifeng, what are you calling that? You're just asking for trouble, hahaha, that's hilarious..."
"Chen Zifeng, you... I'm sorry, I couldn't help it, hahaha..."
…………
Chen Zifeng seemed to have sensed the world's deep malice towards him, and he was now essentially dead to society.
"Alright, it's enough that you know you were arrogant. Today's events serve as a good lesson, not just for you, Chen Zifeng, but for everyone else in your inner courtyard. No matter what kind of opponent you face in the future, you must not underestimate them, or you will suffer the same fate as Chen Zifeng. Alright, you pig, go back and reflect on your actions. Alright, all of you, go back now. Pack your things, and meet at the academy gate early tomorrow morning to head to Xingluo City for the competition."
