Chapter 168: The Inevitable Battle with Royal Fighting Team
Yu Xiaogang ignored the whispers among the group.
He then unrolled the dossier in his hand and began to introduce their opponents’ information.
"Royal Fighting Team, the ace team of Heaven Dou Royal Academy. The entire team has seven members, with a minimum spirit power of level thirty-five. All of them are Spirit Elders or above."
As soon as the first sentence was uttered, the surroundings instantly fell silent.
"Hiss!"
Oscar sucked in a sharp breath and swallowed his saliva.
He asked weakly, "All... all of them are Spirit Elders?"
That was terrifying.
It should be known that among them, apart from Lin Qingmo, Dai Mubai, Tang San, and Xiao Wu, the other four were still only Spirit Grandmasters.
Yu Xiaogang did not stop, continuing to read with a complex and nostalgic expression:
"Captain, Yu Tianheng. Spirit: Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon. Level thirty-nine attack systemBattle Spirit Master. spirit rings: two yellow, one purple."
As soon as this sentence was spoken, Dai Mubai’s face instantly darkened.
Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, the number one Beast Spirit in the world!
Level thirty-nine, just one step away from Spirit Ancestor.
As a level thirty-eight attack system, he might not hold any advantage against his opponent at all.
Tang San’s eyes also turned serious, his fingertips unconsciously clenching. He had heard his father Tang Hao mention the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan; it was one of the Upper Three Sects, with extremely formidable strength.
"Vice-captain, Dugu Yan. Spirit: Jade Phosphor Serpent. Level thirty-eight control systemBattle Spirit Master. spirit rings: two yellow, one purple."
"Member, Shi Mo. Spirit: Xuanwu Turtle. Level thirty-eight defense systemBattle Spirit Master. spirit rings: two yellow, one purple."
"Member, Shi Mo. Spirit: Xuanwu Turtle. Level thirty-seven defense systemBattle Spirit Master. spirit rings: two yellow, one purple."
"Member, Yu Feng. Spirit: Wind Chime Bird. Level thirty-six agility-attack systemBattle Spirit Master. spirit rings: two yellow, one purple."
"Member, Oslo. Spirit: Ghost Leopard. Level thirty-six agility-attack systemBattle Spirit Master. spirit rings: two yellow, one purple."
"Member, Ye Lingling. Spirit: Nine Heart Begonia. Level thirty-five support systemTool Spirit Master. spirit rings: two yellow, one purple."
After finishing reading, Yu Xiaogang closed the dossier and looked up at the group with their varied expressions.
The training ground fell into a deathly silence; even the sound of the wind rustling through the leaves could be heard clearly.
Ma Hongjun opened his mouth but couldn’t utter his usual flippant and arrogant words.
After a long while, he finally managed to squeeze out a sentence: "Damn, no way... how are we supposed to fight this?
All of them being Spirit Elders is one thing, but there’s also a Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon and two Xuanwu TurtleSpirit Masters."
Oscar also said with a bitter face, "It’s over, it’s over. This time we’re probably going to lose. A silver soul team is just too outrageous. With this lineup, they could probably even give a typical Spirit Ancestor team a run for their money, right?"
Dai Mubai’s eyes were sharp, yet they couldn’t conceal a trace of gravity.
Zhu Zhuqing stood not far away, her usually cool and calm face now lacking its usual composure.
Just then.
Ning Rongrong took a step forward, her expression exceptionally grave, her voice carrying a hint of tension.
"Grandmaster, did you just say the opponent’s support Spirit is the Nine Heart Begonia?"
Yu Xiaogang nodded: "That’s correct."
After confirming this, Ning Rongrong took a deep breath.
She then turned to face the group, speaking seriously, word by word: "You might not know how terrifying the Nine Heart Begonia is.
"The Nine Heart Begonia is the Tool Spirit with the strongest healing ability on the Douluo Continent, bar none.
"It’s different from our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. No matter how many spirit rings it has, it will always have only one Spirit Ability.
"But this single Spirit Ability is enough to make it the most desired support Spirit for any team."
Everyone quieted down, listening carefully to Ning Rongrong’s explanation.
Ning Rongrong’s voice continued, carrying a hint of barely concealed apprehension.
"Its Spirit Ability effect is area-of-effect group healing, and the degree of healing can be controlled according to the Spirit Master’s will.
"The higher the Spirit Master’s Rank, the more spirit rings they have, the more spirit power they can mobilize, and the more terrifying the healing effect becomes. In the future, it could even achieve...
"My father told me that as long as there is a Nine Heart BegoniaSpirit Master on the battlefield,
"Unless you can instantly kill her teammates, otherwise, even if you critically wound someone, she can pull them back in an instant, making it nearly impossible for them to die.
"So I must remind everyone, once this Soul Duel begins, our primary target must be to remove this Ye Lingling from the battlefield.
"Otherwise, before her spirit power is exhausted, we won’t be able to inflict any permanent damage on any opponent. We will undoubtedly lose this fight."
Ning Rongrong’s words were like a stone thrown into the already heavy atmosphere.
Even Dai Mubai couldn’t help but suck in a sharp breath.
He was hearing about a Spirit with such a perverse healing ability for the first time.
Just as everyone was clouded with gloom and despair.
A clear voice rang out, carrying a tone of utter nonchalance.
"Ah, why are you all so worried?"
Xiao Wu hugged A-Qing’s arm and shook it, looking at everyone with a face that said it was obvious.
"With Ah Qing here, defeating them will be a piece of cake, right?"
She looked up, full of admiration for the A-Qing beside her.
"These seven people combined probably aren’t even enough for Ah Qing to fight, are they?"
Xiao Wu’s words instantly drew everyone’s gaze to Lin Qingmo, who had been leaning against a nearby pillar without saying much.
Everyone’s expressions became somewhat complicated.
Ma Hongjun and Oscar exchanged a glance, both seeing a sense of relief in each other’s eyes that said, "Right, we still have the big boss."
Every time there’s no danger, they shout; every time they encounter a tough opponent, they have to rely on Lin Qingmo to step in.
It seemed like they really weren’t of much use.
Tang San’s fingers clenched slightly, his Adam’s apple bobbed, but he said nothing.
He felt somewhat unwilling in his heart.
He was the heir of the Clear Sky Hammer, the Grandmaster’s Disciple.
Yet, every time a crisis arose, they had to rely on Lin Qingmo to resolve it.
Even Xiao Wu’s eyes were filled with Lin Qingmo’s shadow.
However, no matter how unwilling Tang San felt, he had to admit one thing—Lin Qingmo’s strength was so great that it made even the thought of confronting him head-on somewhat difficult to muster.
Flender also sighed, saying to Lin Qingmo with a bitter smile, "Qingmo, I’m afraid we’ll have to rely on you again this time."
Lin Qingmo looked up, swept his gaze over the group, and a faint smile curled at the corner of his mouth.
The battle between Shrek and Huangdou had already appeared in the original work of Douluo, so he wasn’t surprised.
However, he truly didn’t take Royal Fighting Team seriously.
Not to mention seven Spirit Elders; even if they were seven Spirit Ancestors, he was confident he could annihilate them all.
The current Royal Fighting Team couldn’t possibly be a match for him.
Lin Qingmo shrugged.
His tone was lazy and somewhat careless as he said, "I’m not interested."
"Huh?"
Everyone was stunned.
Lin Qingmo continued, "Opponents of this level aren’t even interesting for a one-versus-seven fight; it’s purely a waste of time.
"So, I won’t be participating in this Soul Duel."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was dumbfounded.
Yu Xiaogang’s brow instantly furrowed tightly.
"Lin Qingmo, you’re not participating? Then their chances of winning this Soul Duel are too small."
Flender also frowned and said, "Qingmo, don’t be temperamental. This is a team Soul Duel. Without you, our team’s strength will drop significantly."
Lin Qingmo raised an eyebrow.
How could he not see the little thoughts in Yu Xiaogang’s heart?
Yu Tianheng was the direct descendant of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Yu Xiaogang’s own nephew.
If he were to take the field.
Forget about Yu Tianheng.
The entire Royal Fighting Team could be annihilated. Yu Tianheng probably wouldn’t even get a chance to attack, losing in the most embarrassing way possible.
Moreover, Yu Xiaogang hoped even more that this Soul Duel would become a stage for his precious DiscipleTang San to perform, allowing Tang San to shine.
