Douluo: Soul Devouring Spider King

"6 auxiliary... 1 agility?"

"Is this the spirit master lineup you are using for the competition?"

In the Tiandou Prince's Palace, at the familiar pavilion and stone table, Xiaowu and Meng Yiran were not there, and Qian Renxue had a rare opportunity to be alone with Xiaodong.

Unfortunately, she had no intention of seizing the opportunity to develop a relationship with Xiaodong. Instead, she stared at a piece of paper in her hand, looking at the preliminary lineup of the Tiandou Royal Team 2 with an incredible look on her face.

"Hmm~ To be exact, it's '5 assists, 1 control, 1 sensitivity'!" Xiaodong pointed at himself: "I'm the controller!"

That's right, the Soul Devouring Spider King is a controller, not a supporter! Xiaodong must have a reason for this! That is...

However, Qian Renxue was not worried about what type of soul master Xiaodong belonged to. She looked at the lineup again and couldn't help but ask, "Are you sure you don't want to use strong attack and defense?"

"Why do you want to go?"

“这……呼~筱东啊！”千仞雪捏了捏眉心，无奈道：“我得告诉你当下最标准的队伍阵容构成是2强、2敏、1控、1防、1辅！”

"Of course, there are also teams that don't want defense-type players, but they will also change the quota to strong attack or agile attack. There are even many teams that directly use a lineup of 4 strong attackers, 1 agile attacker, 1 control and 1 support!"

"And there can be at most two assistants, one of whom must be able to restore vitality and soul power!"

"Because the real competition on the field is the strength of both sides' agility and attack, and assistance and control are more of a supporting role!"

After a pause, Qian Renxue added: "These team lineups were proposed by your mentor Yu Xiaogang back then, and have been widely recognized by various colleges."

"But you have 5 assists, 1 control, and 1 sensitivity..."

"Is it strange?" Xiaodong asked with a smile. Qian Renxue raised her eyebrows and said:

"Actually, I can guess your tactics. You are planning to protect 6 against 1! The agile attacker should be Meng Yiran!"

"Well, this is my plan for spending all my efforts to train you." Xiaodong nodded decisively, but Qian Renxue shook her head:

"Yan's current strength is indeed good, but Xiaodong, you must know that all the participants in the Continental High-level Soul Master Elite Competition are geniuses who are not inferior to Meng Yiran!"

"Even if there are still five auxiliary buffs, I can gain the upper hand in a one-on-one fight, or even fight 5 vs 1, but I definitely can't fight 2 vs 1!"

Xiaodong did not refute. Seeing this, Qian Renxue picked up the teacup and took a sip, then continued:

"And have you ever thought about this? When the two sides are on the field, if there is no defense system in the team, then the opponent's agility attack system will pose a considerable threat to our support system!"

"It is very likely that after just one minute of the game starting, Meng Yiran will be the only one left in your team! No matter how strong she is, she cannot compete with seven people who have tacit cooperation!"

Qian Renxue tried to persuade him earnestly, but Xiaodong said proudly: "Of course I know what you said, but my fourth soul skill... Oh, Qinghe, I haven't told you yet! Yesterday, my soul power level reached 40, and I unlocked a soul skill called [Pardon·Forbidden Life]."

As soon as the sound fell, Xiaodong was released directly, but the range was very small, with a diameter of only 3 meters, and it was just for demonstration.

"Is this... a barrier?" Surprise flashed in the golden eyes. Xiaodong actually possessed a rare barrier soul skill?

When Qian Renxue heard Xiaodong talk about the effect of the soul skill [Pardon·Forbidden Life], her golden eyes narrowed slightly: "Oh? An ability that increases while the other increases?"

"No, to be precise, once this soul skill is released, all the assistants will become spectators... Wait!" Qian Renxue immediately thought of the key point. She looked at the smiling Xiaodong with interest and sighed:

"I see! You intend to have the five assistants bless Meng Yiran with a soul skill buff while also giving the opponent the same buff, but under the effect of this [Forbidden Life] barrier..."

"Qinghe is really smart!" Xiaodong smiled cutely: "Also, I tested it yesterday, all the gains that increase strength, defense, and speed will become a decrease of the same value!"

"But it cannot prevent the auxiliary spirit master from adding shields to the team members, probably because this does not belong to 'gain'! However, if the spirit master already has a shield, then if the auxiliary spirit master gives a shield, it will directly reduce the shield amount!"

"Not only that! The most common auxiliary skills are restoring vitality and soul power, but under the suppression of the [Forbidden Life] barrier, restoring vitality will become reducing vitality, and restoring soul power will also become reducing soul power!"

That's right! As long as Xiaodong is here, Shrek's two divine assistants will be useless... Well, that's not entirely true. Xiaoao still has a [Flying Sausage], and no matter how much he is debuffed, he won't become a [Drilling Sausage]. But Rongrong can forget about making any progress.

In short, Xiaodong is looking forward to the scene where our three giegies will be stunned when they face Shrek.

When Xiaodong thought of this, he was inexplicably excited: "Therefore, the six assistants I selected have the characteristics of increasing strength, defense, speed, granting shields, and restoring life and soul power!"

"Of course, since the number of players on the field is limited to 7, the auxiliary soul master who grants the shield can be a substitute. Who will be selected to play depends on the opponent's situation."

In this way, in the subsequent major competitions, Meng Yiran will be blessed with a bunch of powerful BUFFs, while the opponent will not only be blessed with a bunch of debuffs, resulting in a huge gap in the attributes of both sides, but will also suffer a continuous decrease in soul power and... continuous injuries?

In short, Meng Yiran has a great chance of winning if he fights 1 against 2 or 3!

"Moreover, the great power is concentrated in one person, and with the attribute of 'one gains, the other loses', there is still no need to fight with all the strong and sensitive attacks of the opponent, but to pick one person and kill him with one blow!"

Use powerful attacks to eliminate the opponent's effective combat power one by one in a very short time!

This is the championship-winning strategy Xiaodong prepared: 6 assists and 1 attack!

Hearing this, Qian Renxue couldn't help but nod, and she suddenly said: "Oh right! I remember that your second and third soul skills, Xiaodong, [Holy Oracle·Glory] and [Holy Oracle·Life Power] can quickly restore life and soul power for soul masters respectively!"

Huh? Xiaodong actually has a combo skill? And it's a one-hit kill!

However, Xiaodong pouted and shook his head gloomily: "I tried it yesterday, but it didn't work! [Holy Decree·Glory] and [Holy Decree·Power] are not 'enhancements'! They can't cooperate with the barrier effect of [Pardon·Forbidden Life]!"

That's right, this is the reason why Soul Devouring Spider King is not a support! Xiaodong does not have the ability to 'enhance'!

Damn~!

"Hmm~ Anyway, what do you think of the tactics I prepared, Qinghe?" Xiaodong was a little proud. Qian Renxue thought about it and nodded slightly: "It's a good idea! And it's very feasible!"

But after nodding his head in affirmation, he said, "However! This tactic has a fatal flaw!"

"Eh?"

Under Xiao Dong's cute blinking gaze, Qian Renxue stretched out her right hand and gently tapped her little head: "This defect is that you are a little princess who has no fighting ability and can only act coquettishly and cutely!"
