Qiangu Dongfeng nodded. “Don’t worry. Zhangting is still quite confident about this. He has our Qiangu Clan’s legacy divine weapon with him. Even if that Yu Longyue is a Hyper Douluo, he can’t possibly be a worthy opponent.”
“That’s great,” said Gu Yuena in relief, but there was a faint radiance flickering in her eyes.
‘Divine weapon, huh? Do you think having a divine weapon will defeat him? Heh-heh.’
‘Wulin, oh Wulin. You must win for sure. Otherwise, I’ll have to adopt my backup plan, you see.’
The audience had already entered the arena. The first round of the round-robin tournament on the second day was about to officially begin. First to be carried out were the five rounds of fights for group number three.
“People of Mingdu Coliseum, I believe that the exciting battles during yesterday’s round-robin have managed to leave behind a profound impression on all of you. Today’s matches are going to be even more impressive. There will be multiple Title Douluo-ranked powerhouses taking part in today’s competition. I’m your commentator for today. Ai Fei and I’ll be commentating on today’s competitions for you all day. The first round of matches for group number three will begin with group number three’s contestant sixty-six, Yu Longyue, versus contestant seventy-one, Li Weisi.”
That was correct. Tang Wulin’s match was arranged to be the first of the day.
“Before the competition begins, I’m going to give a simple analysis to compare the two opponents’ abilities in today’s match. Contestant Number Seventy-one Li Weisi’s martial soul is a crystal ball. It is a rather special martial soul. He is skilled in all sorts of illusions. Moreover, he possesses the ability to conjure real illusions. He is the so-called embodiment of a myriad of changes and someone impossible to guard against. Contestant Li Weisi has an eight-ringed cultivation base, but he does have a record of winning even with a rank handicap.”
“I believe that everyone is very familiar with Contestant Number Sixty-six Yu Longyue here. He comes from the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon King Clan. He even had an instant knockout against an eight-ringed Soul Douluo in his earlier match. The strength of his abilities is said to have placed him within the top ten seeds of this competition. Judging by their abilities, Contestant Yu Longyue has a clear advantage upper, of course, but if Contestant Li Weisi is capable of making the most of his illusion skills then he will stand a chance too. So please give a round of applause to welcome our two contestants into the arena next.”
The audience immediately broke into applause, cheering on the contestants. Most of the cheering was meant for Yu Longyue. This was not because he was the contestant with the more powerful abilities but because of the difference in the contestants looks.
Li Weisi was a Soul Douluo, but he was already forty years old this year. Moreover, he was short and stout which made him appear just like a child. His pair of small eyes seemed to be about the size of a green pea, and he gave the impression of a short-sighted mouse when seen from any angle. He also exuded a ghastly aura under close inspection. He was definitely not a lovable figure.
Compared to him, Yu Longyue’s appearance was, without a doubt, far more pleasant. Thus, there was a huge difference in popularity between these two contestants.
No one wanted a woman as beautiful as the Silver Dragon Princess Gu Yuena to end up marrying a man with Li Weisi’s looks.
Li Weisi had an extremely solemn expression on his face when he ascended to the stage.
He had watched the competition between Tang Wulin and Ao Wuchang. That Lightning Forest of his was terrifying! It had rendered Ao Wuchang’s summoning door completely useless and unable to function. On the other hand, the competition arena was different for it had a much larger surface area. This would be better for him because he was skilled with illusions. Even so, it seemed like the lighting was capable of producing a certain suppressive effect against almost all illusion skills! Actually, he was quite aware that it was utterly impossible for him to defeat Yu Longyue.
However, his eyes glowed brighter involuntarily when he walked onto the competition stage and saw Tang Wulin that was also ascending to the stage from the opposite side.
Not only Li Weisi but the commentator, Ai Fei, had also noticed that something was not right. Ai Fei could not help saying in astonishment, “Huh? What’s wrong with Yu Longyue today? Why does he look a little dispirited? The color of his face shows that he isn’t in good health today!”
Tang Wulin’s face really did not look very good. His makeup skill was so incredible that it would not conceal the color of his skin, making him appear even closer to his true appearance. On the other hand, his face seemed to be a pale gray. The essence, energy and spirit of his entire person were also rather weak. Even though he was still walking with a rather stable gait, his body’s aura was clearly in some trouble.
He was not feigning this, and Tang Wulin was feeling very depressed about it as well.
Yuanen Zhentian’s ability was truly too powerful. Tang Wulin had needed to exhaust all of his strength in order to withstand a direct blow from him. Even his battle armor was badly damaged in the incident.
Although Yuanen Zhentian did retract the Titan Divine Punch’s residual power in his body afterward, it had not changed the fact that Tang Wulin was severely injured.
Tang Wulin’s self-healing ability had its limits. It would take more than a matter of hours for him to recover after withstanding attacks of that extent. He was not in good condition at the moment. With great effort, he had healed the five broken ribs he had suffered, but the pain had not completely left him. His blood essence was scattered and his soul power was unstable. More importantly, his badly damaged battle armor earlier could not be used anymore.
Soul-forged battle armor was capable of self-repair, but the more damage it took, the longer time it would need to recover. Tang Wulin’s Dragon Moon Song battle armor was extraordinary, but it would need at least three days to completely return to its original state. The amount of damage it had sustained this time was through and quite severe.
All these issues were not still not the worst of it. The worst was that his spirit was exhausted. He had attempted to utilize law power several times the day before, particularly on the elemental lightning’s explosive energy. It had an immense impact on his spiritual power. At this point, it would be rather impressive if he could utilize thirty percent of his abilities.
It was precisely because of this that one could clearly see there was a change on the surface of his body.
Li Weisi was naturally overjoyed upon seeing this. He was well aware of his appearance too, of course. Even if he could make it into the top ten finalists, he could not possibly be chosen by Gu Yuena. Moreover, the imperious Qiangu Zhangting was also in his group.
However, his goal was to win a few more rounds in order to boost his final placing. The further he got in the ranks, the more rewards he would receive.
Moreover, if he was capable of defeating the Title Douluo Tang Wulin in this match, he would make a name for himself in one battle!
“Contestant Yu Longyue does not look so good. I wonder what issues he is having? We’re not allowed to speculate. The most important matter now is whether he is capable of defeating Contestant Li Weisi given his current physical condition? We shall wait and see.”
On the main platform, Gu Yuena’s pupils constricted for a moment as well upon seeing Tang Wulin’s pallor. The night before, she had actually sensed that Tang Wulin was fighting against a powerhouse, but she did not sense any life-threatening danger at the time. As a result, she did not take any action. However, Tang Wulin’s injuries appeared to be rather severe judging by the situation at the moment. They seemed to be even worse than she had imagined.
Such circumstances were unusual for Tang Wulin. With his physical capabilities, who was capable of hurting him so badly? It could not have been done by the Spirit Pagoda. If they had made such a move, Gu Yuena would certainly have received some information on that regardless. So who could it be?
Tang Wulin carried her silver dragon scale on his body while his golden dragon scale hung around her neck under her clothes. Naturally, she could feel Tang Wulin’s current physical condition in an even more profound manner. In fact, she could feel him better than anybody else.
Tang Wulin’s state was not an act, as he was truly in a bad way! Could it be that he would lose this round of the competition? It would be quite troublesome if he were to lose.
Meanwhile, Gu Yuena suddenly realized that Tang Wulin was not even paying attention to his opponent. Instead, he raised his head and took a glance at the main platform.
The main platform was shielded by a one-way mirror. From behind it, one could see outside, but not from the outside in. It kept things quite private. Nevertheless, as Tang Wulin glanced at the platform Gu Yuena saw his eyes meet hers coincidentally, and she could see something in his gaze. It was his belief! The belief in a certain victory!
