"Ma Xiaotao, Lin Yun!"
Xuan Zi looked at the two and said, "You two are the strongest, so you will lead. Divide into two teams, each choosing three reserve team members and three main team members to battle!"
It wasn't Dai Yueheng?
Lin Yun gave him a strange look, but found that the latter's expression hadn't changed at all, remaining calm.
Wait, he didn't even get upset?
Could it be that he was so shocked by his and Ma Xiaotao's combat power that he doubted his own life?
The problem was, Lin Yun had indeed guessed correctly. After the successive blows from him and Ma Xiaotao, Dai Yueheng was not far from having his Dao heart collapse.
Ma Xiaotao was fine. Although her combat power after transforming into an ultimate attribute was completely unreasonable, she was already stronger than Dai Yueheng, so he could rationalize it to himself.
But when it came to Lin Yun, an Outer Court junior from the same year as his brother Dai Huabin, not only had his cultivation reached the terrifying Level 56.
His combat power even surpassed Ma Xiaotao's.
Is this reasonable?
Dai Yueheng didn't know, but his pride as the son of the White Tiger Duke had been shattered beyond recognition.
So much so that when he heard Xuan Zi tell Lin Yun and Ma Xiaotao to lead their own teams, he had no reaction whatsoever.
"You pick first," Ma Xiaotao said with a slight smile.
Lin Yun nodded, not being humble, and directly stated, "For the Inner Court, I choose Dai Yueheng. For the Outer Court, I choose Xiao Xiao."
Ma Xiaotao also didn't hesitate, directly choosing Gongyang Mo from the Inner Court and Jiang Nannan from the Outer Court.
When Gongyang Mo, this "little Southern Liang" (a slightly effeminate or flamboyant man), walked up to Ma Xiaotao, he even said "charmingly," "Xiaotao, you have such good taste."
"Inner Court, Chen Zifeng; Outer Court, Ning Tian," Lin Yun said.
Ma Xiaotao: "Inner Court, Ling Luochen; Outer Court, Wang Dong."
"Inner Court, Xixi; Outer Court, Huo Yuhao."
"Inner Court, Yao Haoxuan; Outer Court, Wu Feng."
At this point, Lin Yun and Ma Xiaotao had finished their selections.
Lin Yun's team members: Xiao Xiao, Ning Tian, Huo Yuhao, Dai Yueheng, Chen Zifeng, Xixi.
Ma Xiaotao's team members: Gongyang Mo, Ling Luochen, Yao Haoxuan, Jiang Nannan, Wang Dong, Wu Feng.
In terms of team composition, Lin Yun's side undoubtedly had the advantage, with him, Dai Yueheng, and Chen Zifeng as three offensive types. Add Ning Tian's buffs, and they could directly overwhelm Ma Xiaotao's team.
What's more, there was Huo Hang, the cheat with a full-map view. Lin Yun didn't even know how Ma Xiaotao's team would win.
"Since both sides have chosen their teammates, let's start the match directly. But it's no fun just fighting like this. So, the losing side will have to shout 'I'm a pig!'" Xuan Zi took a gulp of wine and said.
"And one more thing, Lin Yun, don't use that hundred-thousand-year soul skill of yours!"
Once bitten, twice shy. Xuan Zi was genuinely a little afraid of Lin Yun's Golden Dragon Demonic Flash.
The matter with He Caitou was still vivid in his mind. In the past few days, Xian Liner and Qian Duoduo had bothered him relentlessly, trying to poach a few geniuses from the Martial Soul Department for the Soul Tool Department. How could Xuan Zi agree to that?
Taking students from the Martial Soul Department to study the Soul Tool Department, wasn't that purely wasteful, like carving out flesh from his own body?
Xuan Zi would rather offer a thousand-year soul bone as compensation to He Caitou than concede on this matter.
If Lin Yun were to do it again, wouldn't he have to carve out more flesh?
Looking at the place where Xuan Zi quickly disappeared, Lin Yun's expression was truly a bit odd. The other members of the reserve team also had complex expressions, as it would be strange not to be afraid after personally witnessing the power of a hundred-thousand-year soul skill.
The three in Ma Xiaotao's team were already sweating profusely.
'Elder Xuan is wise!' Jiang Nannan, Wang Dong, and Wu Feng all thought at the same time.
Who wouldn't be afraid of a hundred-thousand-year soul ring?
That was a devastating weapon that even Title Douluo might not possess!
However, they soon thought of another problem: Lin Yun had two hundred-thousand-year soul rings. If he couldn't use this one, wasn't there still another?
Damn it!
But no matter how wary they were of Lin Yun, the match was ultimately going to begin. The fourteen individuals stood on opposite sides of the arena, and dazzling soul rings appeared one after another, as intense soul power fluctuations surged.
The most eye-catching were undoubtedly Lin Yun and Gongyang Mo.
The former was eye-catching due to his terrifying soul ring configuration and his unparalleled, domineering posture.
The latter was eye-catching due to his Rainbow Dragon martial soul, whose rarity was comparable to Wang Dong's Goddess of Light Butterfly martial soul.
As one of the very few non-combatant Rainbow Dragons among the Dragon race, their auxiliary abilities were unmatched, almost on par with the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda. Whenever a Rainbow Dragon appeared, they were almost always as a mate to a powerful dragon.
This kind of martial soul should, like the Goddess of Light Butterfly, only appear on beautiful women. But for some unknown reason, Gongyang Mo, a man, had awakened the Rainbow Dragon martial soul.
Seven-colored light shimmered around him, and the hazy glow made Gongyang Mo's flying figure even more strangely graceful and enchanting.
Especially when he looked at Lin Yun, his eyes were actually filled with extremely complex emotions, an gaze almost comparable to that of a "trained" Ma Xiaotao.
Lin Yun: Oh no, I've been targeted by a "South Tong" (gay man)!
A certain person was greatly alarmed and subconsciously unleashed a punch. The extremely compressed air cannon burst with sonic booms. The "little Southern Liang" (Gongyang Mo) flying in the sky, who was batting his eyelashes at Lin Yun, was directly sent flying by the Heaven-Shattering Dragon Fist.
Only his 'charming' scream echoed for a long time...
The match had just begun, and the opposing auxiliary was already instantly defeated. This made the opposing few even more disheartened, adding insult to injury.
Although Ma Xiaotao also put on a difficult expression, her eyes remained calm. For her, the outcome of this match didn't matter. Losing to Lin Yun was not embarrassing; kneeling before her king was her honor.
This won't do.
Lin Yun subtly winked at Ma Xiaotao, who nodded slightly. She flapped the fiery wings on her back and soared into the air, her sixth ten-thousand-year soul ring instantly lighting up.
Phoenix Meteor Shower!
The fact that she had been brainwashed by him definitely couldn't be exposed to the people of Shrek, especially with Xuan Zi still watching from above. Ma Xiaotao had to act normal.
Only by hiding it well would there be a chance to secretly stab Shrek twice.
So, Ma Xiaotao went all out from the start. Large amounts of flames formed fireballs in the air, emitting terrifying high temperatures.
"Stand behind me!" Lin Yun stretched out his hand, and a metallic golden light shone on his dragon claw. His fifth hundred-thousand-year soul ring also emitted a blood-red light.
Hundred-Thousand-Year Qi Rong Tong Tian Ju Soul Skill: Golden Scale Dragon Shield!
Illusory golden dragon scales suddenly closed, forming a semi-circular shield that protected everyone behind Lin Yun.
"Charge together!"
