Soul Land IV (Douluo Dalu) : Ultimate Fighting-Novel

Chapter 398 – We Won !

The rainbow colors on his body faded, leaving behind a pale-faced youth. The dark blue halberd disappeared from his hand, but he remained standing straight, his eyes filled with a blazing light.

A fatty hurriedly rushed to grab Lan Xuanyu’s body and supported him. The battle on the other side had also come to an end at the same time.

A white spear light and sharp arrows rained down like a starry night sky.

In addition to that, with the combination of Lan Mengqin and Dong Qianqiu’s attacks, how could the light and darkness soul masters resist?

In fact, when Lan Xuanyu’s side killed four people consecutively, they had already lost the will to fight.

No one could have imagined such an outcome. In everyone’s hearts, this was simply inconceivable.

“This, this... what is that? How is this possible! One three-ring soul master killed off four five-ring soul masters in an instant. Heavens! My worldview is toppled down.” Le Qingling exclaimed in disbelief.

Mr. Le stared blankly at the screen in front of him.

“Divine weapon, Oblivious to Defense. This, this, I think I’ve seen it before. What’s it called again...”

He slowly raised his hand and a golden light flickered in his eyes. A powerful aura was faintly discernible within his body.

Le Qingling felt that something was wrong and quickly turned to look at him.

Right at this moment, Tang Le raised his right hand and grabbed at the air. A golden light flashed and a dazzling golden trident appeared in his hand. The golden light shone brightly and under the blade of the trident was a gigantic golden gem emitting a dazzling light, dying Tang Le’s body gold.

“This is...”

Le Qingling felt that she didn’t know Tang Le anymore.

Qian Lei carried Lan Xuanyu up and shouted excitedly, “We won, we won!”

It was only at this moment that the audience truly reacted. Yes, they had won, the first years had won. Not only did they win, they didn’t even suffer any losses.

Lan Xuanyu circulated the soul power in his body and smiled. “Put me down, I’m not that weak.”

Although his Dragon God Transformation had exhausted his bloodline power, he still had his soul power. It wasn’t that he didn’t have the strength to fight, but he would be weakened greatly.

A three-ring soul master killed off four five-ring soul masters with a wave of his hand. This was probably unprecedented in human history.

But only Lan Xuanyu knew how much preparation he had done for the last 10 seconds.

From the beginning, they had split up the battlefield mainly to attract the opponents and probe their tactics.

They were actually unprepared for Sima Xian’s Dark Gold Hell. But Lan Xuanyu had long considered the possibility of this happening, so he had already made preparations. He wanted Yuanen Huihui to be outside and be ready at any time.

Yuanen Huihui’s Eye of Samsara had the ability to resolve a crisis for them at any time. In fact, this was also the most important trump card that could turn the tables.

Dong Qianqiu still being able to use her Deep Blue Gaze while being controlled was actually a pleasant surprise. It had allowed them to go from the defensive to the offensive.

And in the following battles, from luring the enemy deep into their side to inciting them to attack, to Yuanen Huihui suppressing them and allowing the two Black Tortoise Shield soul masters to work together, all of this was part of his plan. There was only one goal, and that was to allow the opponents’ strongest persons to get as close as possible.

Lan Xuanyu’s Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd’s ability, ignoring any defense, was indeed strong, but there was also a fatal problem—the attack range.

The Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd could not be used for long-range attacks. It had to be used at a close distance and would only be effective if it struck the opponent. Lan Xuanyu did not have Nana’s ability to throw the Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd away and injure his enemies.

Hence, he had been trying his best to create an opportunity for his opponents to surround and attack him. Hence, when Tang Yuge attacked him at the end, he “panicked” and retreated in the direction of the two Black Tortoise Shield soul masters so that he could finish off as many opponents as possible within 10 seconds.

The double attacks from Yuanen Huihui’s Thunder Spirit War Drum were also part of his plan. He’d suppressed the two Black Tortoise Shields and gave him a chance to attack.

In Lan Xuanyu’s plan, the first targets to be killed were actually Li Siming and Li Siqi’s brothers. Under the suppression of Yuanen Huihui, he felt more confident in being able to slice them with the Heavenly Sacred Abyss Halberd.

As long as he got rid of these two brothers, Yuanen Huihui’s Purple Star Spirit Bow would be able to unleash its maximum effect. Without the Black Tortoise Shield’s defense, Yuanen Huihui, who was unleashing his full power, could very possibly dominate the entire battlefield. After his Second Awakening, he only needed to maintain his distance with Tang Yuge and could exhaust Tang Yuge’s Five Elements Divine Light. Even Tang Yuge would have a hard time winning against him.

Hence, when they were formulating their tactics, Lan Xuanyu told his teammates that the key to this battle was to create an opportunity for him to kill the two Black Tortoise Shields. As long as he could kill them, the odds of victory would tilt towards them.

It was just that Lan Xuanyu didn’t expect that his coordination with Yuanen Huihui would turn out to be so good. The second Thunder Spirit War Drum had intimidated Tang Yuge, giving Lan Xuanyu ample time to attack and preventing her from dodging. And then, he had killed Tang Yuge.

At this moment, the outcome was already decided. After raising his cultivation base to three-ring, Lan Xuanyu also felt that he could use the Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd for a longer period of time. When he killed Sima Xian in the end, Sima Xian had already lost his will to fight, preventing him to unleash his full potential.

It was actually Lan Xuanyu’s first time using this ability that ignored defense on the battlefield. Before this, he didn’t really know how powerful the Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd was. Hence, in his plan, he had only planned to kill the two Black Tortoise Shield soul masters by surprise.

At this moment, the entire audience was in an uproar.

Lan Xuanyu clenched his fists and slowly raised his right hand above his head. Liu Feng was already charging towards him like the wind. Yuanen Huihui also ran over in joy.

Lan Mengqin stood there in a daze as she looked over. She actually felt that she had yet to unleash her full potential. She was also a backup plan left behind by Lan Xuanyu.

If they failed to kill the two Black Tortoise Shield soul masters, it would be the time for the girls to go all out.

However, this battle was much easier than they had imagined because the Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd’s impact was too big.

The flaw of the Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd was obvious. If Lan Xuanyu wasn’t given a chance to get close, he would be able to use the Heavenly Sacred Abyss Splitting Halberd that could only be used for 10 seconds to recover. But the problem was that Tang Yuge and the rest didn’t know about this!

This was the core of Lan Xuanyu’s battle strategy. They had too many trump cards that their opponents didn’t know about.

Tang Yuge’s plan was to be cautious and completely suppress Lan Xuanyu without revealing any opening, but they were still unable to block Lan Xuanyu’s surprise attack.

Lan Xuanyu had long guessed that Tang Yuge would target him because she had already realized how important he was in the team. After interacting with him a few times, she had surely realized that he was the entire first years’ core. And he was weak and thus the easiest to kill, so he would definitely be targeted. He had made use of her mentality.

“What’s wrong, big sis Mengqin?” Dong Qianqiu nudged Lan Mengqin.

“We’re rich, we’re rich...” Lan Mengqin said in a daze.

Dong Qianqiu burst out laughing. “You are not possessed by Qian Lei, are you?”

Lan Mengqin hugged her excitedly. “Six, we have more than six purple emblems! Everyone, everyone! We’re rich, we’re rich. Aiyaya, this is so great.”

Before this match, they tried their best to tell themselves that if they lost, it wouldn’t be as if they didn’t gain anything as they were still able to earn some money by selling the information at the end. They didn’t think about winning.
