The ultimate transmission fear beast stands on the Douluo Continent.

Chapter 425: Meng Yiran's First Appearance

Gu You enjoyed the cheers, but soon returned to the team rest area under the murderous look of the referee.

The single-team rest area that appeared for the first time in Douluo Continent was located directly below the audience seats. It adopted a semi-sunken design and was connected to the fighting arena by a short downward staircase.

In addition to the most common rest room, the rest area also has a dedicated viewing area that can accommodate all the players. A half-meter-high and palm-thick glass is embedded on the wall, which allows the players in the rest area to see their teammates fighting bravely.

On this basis, the Fighting Spirit Arena also arranged locker rooms, toilets, team medical rooms, and a special tactical room in the rest area according to the requirements provided by the royal family (Guyou).

If you want to know why there are so many things, the reason is very simple -

Many soul masters regard fighting spirits as a profession. Since it is a profession, it is reasonable that the template prototype given by Gu You is a professional sports team.

As for the Fighting Spirit Arena, there was initially some controversy regarding their demands from the royal family, but that has now disappeared without a trace.

Are you kidding? The fighting arena is open to make money. The four games the day before yesterday alone were enough for them to see the huge potential hidden in the new competition system.

If large teams of fifteen people had not become a trend yet and it was difficult to find a team to compete with, the Fighting Spirit Arena would have copied "Master Fighting Spirit 1.0", modified it, and launched a "Master Fighting Spirit 1.0 (Fighting Spirit Arena Edition)" with all-new rules to make a fortune.

As soon as I opened the door, a dry towel was handed to me.

"Thank you for your hard work, brother."

The person who handed over the towel could not be anyone else but Lanta, the most caring little cotton-padded jacket in the family.

"Ah."

Since they were family, Gu You didn't bother to say thank you. He took the towel and wiped it on his face.

To be honest, both of them knew that it was impossible to make Gu You feel tired just by fighting Yu Tianxin. If they wanted to make Gu You tired, they would need at least 15 enemies to attack him at the same time.

However, the towel is just there and it would be a waste if not used.

After wiping his face with the towel and throwing it into the laundry basket, Gu You asked Meng Yiran, who had appeared beside him out of nowhere and was both nervous and excited, "Are you ready?"

"of course."

Meng Yiran discovered that Gu You, who was beating Yu Tianxin wildly, didn't even change his breathing rhythm. He took a deep breath, then nodded vigorously with a firm look in his eyes.

"Very good." Gu You raised his lips and said, "Since you are not afraid of failure, then go all out."

Gu You’s admission was like a shot of adrenaline. Meng Yiran instantly smiled and walked out radiantly.

Lanta said faintly: "Brother, lying is wrong."

Gu You was anxious: "Soul skills can't be considered a lie, it's a white lie! Can the scholar's business be considered a lie?"

There were a series of difficult to understand words, such as "illusion is too difficult" and "illusion", which made everyone laugh and filled the lounge with a happy atmosphere.

Amidst the laughter, Gu You went into the locker room to change his clothes. Seeing that the protagonist of the prank was gone, everyone stopped talking and continued the topic that had just been interrupted to chat with their teammates.

As for watching the game in the spectator area.
It’s not impossible, the key is whether you have the motivation.

The original seven members of the Royal Fighting Team, plus Gu You, Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Meng Yiran, four powerful new generations. A total of eleven soul masters, they didn't know how to lose.

Since we are sure that we will not lose, there is no need for all players to watch the game like we did in the last game against Xiangjia Academy.

Should you go to watch the game, or to appreciate the various ways in which the other team loses?

Let's give Yu Tianheng some face.

Thanks to the fact that Tiandou Royal Academy lacked everything except money, the logistics staff prepared at least ten sets of change of clothes for each member of the Royal Dou team. Gu You quickly changed into a clean team uniform and walked out of the locker room. He looked around and decided to call Xiao Wu and Ranta to go to the window.

Ranta stood up quietly and nodded without surprise.

On the other hand, Xiao Wu, who spent an entire night writing 2,000 words yesterday, was dejected. With a last glimmer of hope, she asked, "Aren't you going to the sidelines to replace Teacher Qin Ming?"

The rules of the game stipulate that only the team leader or the deputy team leader can provide real-time guidance on the sidelines. Gu You appeared on the sidelines to provide guidance in the last round, and he will probably appear on the sidelines this round as well.

It will definitely appear!

Unfortunately, Xiao Wu's wish did not come true. Gu You shook his head and led the two of them straight into the viewing area: "The preliminary round will be randomly drawn, and the pre-match arrangements can only be based on playing a safe game. If you don't want to play a team battle, you must go up and micro-manage."

"As for the semi-finals, there is plenty of time to prepare before the game."

Gu You smiled mysteriously: "The fun is just about to begin."

On the fighting spirit arena, Lei Tian, ​​who had been preparing for the game early, gave the team leader on the sidelines a puzzled look.

"Why did you replace the agile attack-type soft bone rabbit with the former captain of the Royal Fighting Team?"

The Thunder Academy leader was startled when he found out that the opposing players did not match the plan. He then looked with fear at Qin Ming, who was wearing a white windbreaker and crossing his arms across his chest, showing the demeanor of a strong man.

Logically speaking, the disadvantaged side will take the initiative to adjust its lineup to seek new possibilities. Since the advantaged side is already in the advantage, of course it just needs to maintain stability.

Tiandou Royal Academy has what seems to be a dozen Soul Sect members but it was the first to change its formation. He could only think that Qin Ming was very skilled and bold, and was confident that he would win no matter how he changed the formation.

Especially the act of arranging control-type soul masters who were at a disadvantage in single combat to participate in one-on-one combat, which showed Qin Ming's confidence to the fullest.

In that case, don't blame us for being rude.

"Leitian, don't be affected by the other side!"

After reviewing Meng Yiran's information in his mind, the leader of the Thunder Academy quickly shouted to Lei Tian: "Hold steady, remember your advantages, and act according to the plan!"

Compared with the incompetent team leader who could only say "believe in the child", the Thunder Academy team leader showed strong self-confidence, successfully led Lei Tian out of his uneasy mood, and quickly regained his calm.

"It's a pity that I couldn't fight that agile rabbit, but it's not bad to get rid of the previous captain of the Royal Fighting Team."

Lei Tian stared at Meng Yiran with sharp eyes, as if he could hear the students of Thunder Academy on the sidelines cheering for his victory.

'Hey, human, can I poke his eyes out?'

"No, Xiaoyou will be angry if I maliciously maim my opponent."

"Why? He clearly looks like he thinks we are ready to eat."

"No means no. We can't be the first to violate the rules set by Xiaoyou."

'Only the strong are qualified to make the rules!'

"You mean Xiaoyou isn't strong enough?"

'.That's not what I meant.'

"I understand. I will convey your words to Xiaoyou truthfully."

"Hey, don't! I just said it casually, I don't mean anything else." Listening to the voice echoing in his mind, Meng Yiran couldn't help but curl his lips.

Walking up to Lei Tian and standing still, Meng Yiran was the first to speak: "Tiandou Royal Academy, Meng Yiran, level 42 all-around control-type soul master."

Lei Tian followed closely behind: "Lei Tian from Thunder Academy, level 42 armor-piercing and strong attacking spirit master."

"Both parties, salute."

The two bowed at the same time, and the atmosphere that had cooled down slightly during the break became heated again. Especially the students of Thunder Academy, who were desperately cheering for Lei Tian.

Although in the last round, Thunder Academy was dragged into the team competition by Blue Tyrant Academy despite having an absolute advantage in strength, the blame did not lie with the team leader, as there was nothing wrong with his deployment of troops.

The main reason was that the opposing Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan's Shame was too good at exploiting the rules, and was keenly aware of the loopholes that "Master Fighting Spirit 1.0" had specifically left for the small academy.

That is the mechanism where God draws a genius and changes one's fate.

The rules require that the team that gets seven points first wins. In other words, as long as the opponent cannot get seven points in the previous battles, there is a chance to complete a comeback with five points in the final team match.

After all, Yu Xiaogang was a man who had been in the Spirit Hall and had hooked up with the former Saint, and was able to walk away unscathed.

Although his act of compiling the "Top Ten Core Competencies of Soul Masters" from the Spirit Hall's huge database can be described as picking up shit from gold, the fact that he was able to accurately pick out the most useless shit from a pile of gold also indirectly proves his ability to grasp the key points.

Based on this idea, he asked Dai Mubai, who was supposed to play in the first round, to travel at a different time, first secure two points in the two-on-two doubles match, and finally win the final victory with five points in the team match.

Simply put, it is to hope that Dai Mubai can turn the tables by defeating seven people alone in the team competition.

As for the other team members, they are all disposable props that consume the soul power and physical strength of Thunder Academy and obtain intelligence.

Theoretically, Yu Xiaogang's idea coincided with the shortcut carefully prepared by Gu You. If the competition expanded in the future, the participating colleges could use this trick to change their fate.

The only problem is whether the talents in the academy are talented enough and whether they have the strength to fight seven people at once.

Obviously, Dai Mubai belongs to the group of people whose quality is not enough.

In the original novel, Dai Mubai, who had eaten the miraculous chrysanthemum, was unable to crush Yu Tianxin. Let alone the current Dai Mubai who has never eaten the magic herb, the ending is even more impossible.

The total score was 11 to 2, and the two points lost were due to the opponent's tricks. It is no wonder that Thunder Academy still maintains confidence in its leader.

"The second round of the lower half semi-finals, Meng Yiran vs. Lei Tian, ​​officially begins now!"

"Thunder Eagle, possess!"

As soon as the referee finished speaking, Lei Tian immediately released his martial spirit. With a thunderous roar, a pair of huge wings covered with twisted lightning suddenly spread out.

The thousand-year-level third soul ring shone with purple light, and Lei Tian flapped his wings amid the endless thunder, rising into the sky in the strong wind.

"The Staff of Fearful Snake, now."

In the midst of the strong wind, Meng Yiran held her greatly transformed slender snake staff. The eyes of the snake head on the staff were completely open, staring straight at Lei Tian who was circling in the sky.

Seeing that the four spirit rings hovering on the indigo snake staff were the same as he expected, the leader of Thunder Academy couldn't help but smile.

"It's true, Meng Yiran is also a Soul Sect member."

Considering that the two newcomers are both Soul Sect masters, the leader of Thunder Academy assumes that Meng Yiran, the former captain of the Royal Fighting Team, is also a Soul Sect master.

The tactics he arranged in the semi-finals, the part concerning Meng Yiran, was also based on the fact that she was a Soul Master.

"It's stable."

The leader of Thunder Academy, who had lost the Ace Clash, raised his head and looked at Lei Tian hovering in the air with expectant eyes.

Lei Tian, ​​an offensive spirit master with a flying spirit, almost perfectly restrains Meng Yiran, a control spirit master who lacks long-range attack skills.

The first victory is inevitable.

Just as the team leader was looking at Lei Tian in the air with expectant eyes, Lei Tian was also looking down at Meng Yiran on the fighting spirit arena with confident eyes.

Unlike the invisible captain Gu You who disappeared at the slightest disagreement, Meng Yiran has accumulated quite a few appearance records during his time as captain of the Royal Fighting Team.

In all the major high-level soul master academies in Tiandou City, Meng Yiran's name is not just a household name, but is also well-known to everyone.

'The first soul skill is the snake blade for close combat, the third soul skill is the snake rain for field control, and the second soul skill is unknown, either difficult to use or rubbish.'

After flying for a long time without seeing Meng Yiran make a move, Lei Tian quickly went over the information in his mind and determined that Meng Yiran lacked the means of long-range attack. He then spread his arms and hovered in the air, locking onto Meng Yiran's position with his eagle eyes.

In order to obtain the three precious soul bones, he must use his strongest attack method to defeat Meng Yiran.

Lei Tian thought so, and he actually did so.

The remaining purple soul rings also emitted dazzling light, and blue-purple electric currents quickly shuttled around Lei Tian's body.

Surrounded by lightning, a dark blue shadow quietly emerged from behind him. The huge wings and sharp beak showed that this shadow was Lei Tian's martial spirit, the Thunder Eagle.

After the phantom appeared, the electric current that was originally passing through Lei Tian's body began to gather towards Lei Ying. With Lei Tian's body as the center, the released electric current formed a dazzling thunder pool with a diameter of about five meters in the air.

In contrast to the Thunder Pool, the originally bright special soul guide lights in the Fighting Spirit Arena looked like old parts that were about to be scrapped, forcing all the spectators to squint their eyes.

In the fighting spirit arena, Meng Yiran held the snake staff in front of him, with four spirit rings flashing one after another, and he took a defensive posture.

In Lei Tian's eyes, Meng Yiran's posture was as if she was ready to use her slender snake staff to block his fourth soul skill.

"ridiculous."

The thunder pool slowly shrank, and the phantom thunder eagle, which had received sufficient thunder and lightning, gradually became solid. When the thunder eagle grew to its limit, Lei Tian's body quietly sank into the huge thunder energy behind him.

Lei Tian's body merged into the Thunder Eagle, and the eyes of the Thunder Eagle, which had turned from virtual to real, lit up. The sharp eagle eyes, which carried Lei Tian's emotions, instantly locked onto Meng Yiran.

Fourth Soul Skill-Brave Eagle Thunder Attack
The high-pitched eagle cry pierced the eardrums, and the Thunder Eagle, which had gathered all the power of Lei Tian, ​​descended from the sky. With unparalleled momentum and the power to tear through all obstacles, it covered the place where Meng Yiran was standing.

"Oh, the winner is decided."

Meng Yiran on the fighting arena was about to be defeated, but Gu You in the viewing area smiled calmly.

"Ata, go and call Tianheng, Sister Yanzi, and Lingling to warm up."
