Soul Land 3: Legend Of The Dragon King

Chapter 1485

The yellow light proliferated outward in the form of a vortex, completely rejecting Chi Shanming's flames, yet his right fist was caught in a vice-like grip, rendering him unable to withdraw it.

In the next instant, the terrifying yellow light completely erupted. Yuanen Yehui stepped forward with her left foot, and eight soul rings rose up around her. There was no thunderous roar or eruption of aura; she did nothing more than thrust her right hand forward.

Earth was very effective for suppressing fire, so Yuanen Yehui's Titan Giant Ape martial soul had extremely potent fire resistance. On top of that, she was a pure strength-type Soul Master whose forte lay in melee combat.

Her terrifying strength was her forte, and this was something no one expected, considering her thin and frail-looking body.

Chi Shanming's flames began to burn with even greater intensity, but his right fist was forced all the way back to his chest by Yuanen Yehui's hand.

Not only was she able to attack using her Divine Cloudvortex Fists, she was also able to release powerful repulsive force to repel her enemy's power while using the internal vortex to gather her own power.

Tang Wulin was constantly improving, and his friends were also following in his footsteps.

The terrifying explosive power erupted in this instant, and a giant projection appeared behind Yuanen Yehui before vanishing in a flash.

"Boom!"

The Flame Spirit was completely dispersed, and Chi Shanming felt as if a massive pillar had struck him square in the chest. A burst of sharp pain speared through his sternum, and he reflexively released his suit of battle armor to protect himself.

Even though he was already a Titled Douluo, he still didn't have enough soul refined metal for a suit of three-word battle armor, so his battle armor was still only at the two-word level.

In this dire situation, the battle armor had been automatically released to protect its wearer.

However, Yuanen Yehui wasn't going to give him a chance to stage a comeback. She abruptly drew back her right hand, pulling Chi Shanming toward her, then lowered her shoulder before ramming it directly toward Chi Shanming's chest.

At the same time, she clenched her right fist and unleashed her Divine Cloudvortex Fist down toward the ground below.

In the instant that Chi Shanming had released his suit of battle armor, his seventh soul ring had also lit up to unleash his Fire Elemental True Body.

Once his body transformed into fire elements, the effect that physical attacks had on him would be very limited.

However, as he unleashed his seventh soul skill, violent tremors suddenly erupted from underfoot, and his soul skill was abruptly cut off by a burst of fearsome rotational power.

Impossible! He can cut off my seventh soul skill? 

Chi Shanming was astonished by this sudden turn of events. Right at this moment, Yuanen Yehui's shoulder struck his fiery chest in a vicious blow.

"Bam!"

Chi Shanming felt as if all of his bones had been shattered, and blood instantly began to flow out of all of his orifices.

The crisp crack of shattering bones rang out, and both his sternum and the bones in his right arm were broken by the impact.

Only then did Yuanen Yehui release his right hand, then encircled her arms before her to release a burst of powerful suction force, controlling Chi Shanming's body and flames and confining them within a certain area. In the next instant, she lashed out with both of her fists in unison.

At this point, Chi Shanming had finally donned his suit of two-word battle armor, it was immediately struck by Yuanen Yehui's fists.

"Boom!"

Chi Shanming transformed into a fiery missile once again, except he was flying backward on this occasion. His body crashed into the protective barrier in the distance with a resounding boom, and after falling to the ground, he spasmed uncontrollably, unable to get up again.

The attack hadn't been enough to kill him, but there was definitely no way he would be able to continue in this battle.

As Yuanen Yehui had unleashed those two punches, a pair of translucent yellow gauntlets had appeared on her fists. After her opponent was sent flying, the gauntlets were also withdrawn in a very smooth and flowing sequence.

"The victory goes to Yuan Hui!" the referee announced after a brief hesitation.

Yuanen Yehui didn't even take an extra glance at her opponent before departing from the platform. There was no exuberant celebration; it was as if she had done something completely unremarkable and mundane.

Only after her departure did the entire stadium erupt into chatter.

Who could've imagined that a Titled Douluo would be eliminated in such crushing fashion on the very first day?

This was simply incredible! The entire battle was extremely short, and Chi Shanming didn't even get a chance to unleash his most powerful soul skills before he was defeated.

How was this possible? Of course, some of the more seasoned powerful beings present were able to identify what had happened.

It was generally considered to be quite shameful for a Titled Douluo to lose to a Soul Douluo, but this also depended on the caliber of the Soul Douluo.

If Chi Shanming were an elite Soul Master, then his opponent had to be a prodigy, and a super prodigy, at that.

Chi Shanming had lost primarily because he had subconsciously underestimated his opponent. Due to the fact that his opponent was a Soul Douluo, he had made the grave error of launching an all-out attack without testing his opponent first.

As a result, he completely exposed himself and was at the mercy of his opponent. With his Fire Elemental Control martial soul, he definitely wouldn't have lost in such crushing fashion had he chosen to attack from long range. At the very least, he would've been able to perform to the best of his abilities. However, he had chosen melee combat, which played right into the hands of his opponent.

Even the seasoned powerful beings in the spectator stands didn't manage to identify what Yuanen Yehui's martial soul was before the match concluded.

Everything had happened far too quickly, and Chi Shanming had been dominated from start to finish.

As Chi Shanming was helped up from the ground by the referee, everyone was given a glimpse of his cuirass, which had caved in significantly. There was still blood constantly pouring out of his nose and mouth, clearly indicating that he had suffered severe internal injuries.

Even now, Chi Shanming felt as if he were in a dream. As his opponent's fists had struck his chest, he clearly sensed that the defenses of his suit of two-word battle armor had been instantly broken. On top of that, his opponent's fists had been imbued with terrifying rotational power that had broken through his defenses and could've easily torn his entire body apart. The only reason he was still alive right now was because his opponent had spared his life.

This was a man who had mastered fist intent, and perhaps even attained fist soul! Choosing to engage in melee combat with such an opponent was akin to committing suicide!

Tang Wulin stood up in the spectator stands with a smile on his face.

There were no other matches that he was interested in watching on this day.

Yuanen Yehui had become even more formidable. Even though she was only at rank 83 soul power, she had the most potent soul power among all of Shrek's Seven Monsters aside from Tang Wulin.

Most importantly, she had attained an even higher level of mastery of her Divine Cloudvortex Fists, and it seemed that she had benefited immensely from hearing Tang Wulin's description of the Titan Giant Ape's Divine Titan Fists.

In a one-on-one battle where soul skills were prohibited, even he would most likely have some trouble defeating her. In his absence, she was the pillar that supported Shrek's Seven Monsters.

Such a stunning occurrence in the first group of matches had sent the entire sports stadium into a frenzy. It was incredible that such a powerful Titled Douluo had been defeated just like that!

As a result, Yuan Hui instantly became one of the favorites of the entire joust for a spouse event, and all major media outlets were replaying "his" match with expert commentators attempting to dissect and explain what had happened.

During their analysis, they quickly discovered that he had revealed extremely little about his abilities during the battle.

The gauntlets that he had used were identified to have most likely been components of a suit of three-word battle armor, which was why they had been so destructive. It had also been deduced that he most likely possessed an earth-attribute pure strength-type martial soul, but overall, this was still very little information.

No one wanted to encounter such an opponent in an elimination match.

The overall evaluation was that Yuan Hui's powers were at the Titled Douluo level, and that it was very likely that he was a three-word battle armor master. At the very least, the gauntlets for his suit of three-word battle armor had been completed.
