The Legend of the Dragon King

Under such circumstances, they were all aware that in order to defeat Tang Wulin they would first need to design a trap for him which he would never see coming.

As a result, the trap was already being put in place ever since the first collision when the six Monsters lost.

Besides targeting him with their attacks, everything that they did was meant to confuse Tang Wulin.

The most important part of this trap was that every action that they had taken earlier was genuine. If they were capable of defeating Tang Wulin during the initial confrontation, obviously it would have been the best result, saving them the trouble later on. In reality, their tactics were also meant to minimize one of them, the least noticeable person among the Shrek Seven Monsters.

Other than his provision of Bloodthirst Bean Buns for everybody in the beginning, he had kept his presence inconspicuous.

He had been quietly waiting for the opportunity all along!

Thus, the six monsters’ trump card in besieging Tang Wulin was not Xie Xie who could conceal himself in the void, but Xu Lizhi who had concealed himself by their side with an innocent expression on his face. It was Guardian Star Xu Lizhi!

Just as Tang Wulin thought he was already done blocking everyone’s attacks, Xu Lizhi finally made an opening move. It was the most opportune moment for him to hit the target with one slap. Moreover, the explosive power of his attacking ability was beyond Tang Wulin’s imagination.

The trap was not only ingeniously arranged but every part was also linked with one another.

Ye Xinglan radiated the most intense light to attract the attention of Tang Wulin’s group of three. In addition to that, the rest of the team had been making every effort to engage in the battle. In the end, they used this trap to conceal Xu Lizhi’s final strike and succeeded with that final blow as expected.

However, the battle had yet to end. They had not dealt with Strength God A Ruheng and Gale Saber Demon Sima Jinchi. Even so, they were already greatly relieved after finishing off Tang Wulin. A Ruheng and Sima Jinchi appeared as if they had lost their captain.

All along, Elder Long had been watching the battle from the sidelines. Even Xu Xiaoyan’s domain was incapable of blocking her line of sight. When she watched Xu Lizhi finally make a move by blasting Tang Wulin and infusing his destruction power, her lips could not help cracking into a faint smile.

‘These little children are truly impressive! Their abilities and their scheming. They truly deserve the reputation of the Shrek Seven Monsters.’

Compared to the first round, she was much more satisfied with their performance in the second. On the other hand, Tang Wulin felt like his failure this time was not such a bad thing for him, as he had grown too fast. Moreover, it was fine that he lost at the hands of his companions.

Though describing the events that occurred takes time, it all happened in mere moments.

The Shrek Six Monsters used their actions to prove how much they valued Tang Wulin’s presence. Even though Tang Wulin was smashed away by Xu Lizi’s destructive power, Xie Xie, Yue Zhengyu, Yuanen Yehui, and Ye Xinglan leaped into the air simultaneously to chase after him.

They intended to truly and completely finish off Tang Wulin before they were done.

Yet in this situation, the only remaining people to handle Sima Jinchi and A Ruheng now were Xu Lizhi and Xu Xiaoyan, who was slumped against the ground and had already lost her fighting capacity.

‘Are they planning to sacrifice two in exchange for one? Are they certain that they can achieve victory by sending the remaining four to fight against two great Title Douluos?’

Long Yeyue had an idea which allowed her to figure out that it would not be as simple, but she was eager to find out what these young people were actually planning to do.

Then, her question was answered by Xu Lizhi!

The chubby flesh on his entire body trembled as his pitch black seventh soul ring enlarged abruptly. At the same time the circular soul ring was spreading out, his incomparably plump body sank down like it was caving in. He transformed into an enormous…

Bamboo steamer!

Yes, it was a bamboo steamer. It was extremely large and even appeared to be fair and chubby to one’s eyes.

The cover on the bamboo steamer was bubbling over as if vapor was boiling inside it. The cover shook until a large rotund bun flew out from the steamer and landed right in Xu Xiaoyan’s hand.

Xu Xiaoyan took a bite without the slightest hesitation. The oil streamed down her lips as warmth rapidly seeped through her entire body. Her exhaustion from earlier was immediately reduced slightly.

A Ruheng and Sima Jinchi were still coming in a threatening manner, but they were momentarily stunned upon seeing Xu Lizhi’s martial soul avatar.

What on Earth was that?

A bamboo steamer?

A bamboo steamer avatar?

A Ruheng’s first impression…was one of hunger…

Sima Jinchi’s lips on the other hand…

Who would have thought that a soul master’s martial soul avatar was a steamer basket? Yet, upon consideration, Xu Lizhi’s martial soul was, indeed, a bun, so did it not make sense that his martial soul avatar was the bamboo steamer that produced buns?

Could it be that the fat boy still wanted to strengthen his companions?

A Ruheng took the lead as he gave a tight slap to the bamboo steamer Xu Lizhi had transformed into.

However, the sixth soul ring that surrounded the bamboo steamer was glowing and another bun came shooting out from it. This time, it was aiming right for A Ruheng!

A Ruheng chuckled at once. ‘The boy must have known that I’m hungry, right? Is he giving me a bun to buy time?’

‘You must be overthinking. Do you think that I’m such a glutton? I am indeed! Eating a bun will not affect the battle either. Anyhow, Tang Wulin’s side seems to be putting a hopeless amount of effort.’

He slapped the bamboo steamer while his other hand grabbed the bun.

Then, A Ruheng took a close look at the bun and was taken aback. The bun had a rather strange appearance! Even though it looked like a regular bun, it was purple-black in color. What sort of bun was that? Could it be that it was made with some fruit juice?

A Ruheng was still puzzled when a violent energy fluctuation suddenly radiated from the bun.

“Oh no!”

As he stood there astonished, the purple-black bun exploded!

“Boom!”

An earth-shattering blast echoed and shocked the entire scene. The exploding bun had instantly transformed into a purple-black orb of light before A Ruheng’s face. It not only exploded in the sky, but it also remained there for some time. The terrifying destructive aura came so suddenly, it blasted A Ruheng away at once. Even though he would not be severely injured due to durability provided by his Body Sect’s Innate Secret Technique, the explosive force did manage to shock him. The destructive power contained in the explosion seeped into his body and corroded his insides wildly like maggots gnawing into his bones, wounding him and damaging his soul power.

‘What the heck is this? Is there such a bun?’

Guardian Star Xu Lizhi’s seventh soul skill and his martial soul avatar was the bamboo steamer. He launched his sixth soul skill, the Destruction Explosive Bun!

It was the first time Xu Lizhi’s two great soul skills ever made a debut and it left them all in awe.

There was an old saying among soul masters that the most terrifying soul master is one with unknown soul skills! Xu Lizhi had demonstrated this perfectly in today’s battle.

His performance had yet to end. Immediately after shooting the first Destruction Explosive Bun, one after another, purple-black buns flew out from under the bamboo steamer continuously and going straight for A Ruheng and Sima Jinchi.

The Explosive Buns filled with destructive power were truly terrifying due to the amplification of his martial soul avatar. The rest of the four monsters did not give up on him as they were confident that he could temporarily hold A Ruheng and Sima Jinchi single-handedly.

Their impressive planning and complementation! Despite A Ruheng and Sima Jinchi’s arrogance, they could not help respecting the Shrek Six Monsters anymore.

Meanwhile, the other four monsters had already arrived by Tang Wulin’s side while they were being held back.

“Hah-hah, big brother, this could happen to you too!” Xie Xie laughed aloud and stretched out his hand to grab Tang Wulin. As long as he could exercise control over him, then it was the same as eliminating Tang Wulin from the competition.

There was still some destructive power that Xu Lizhi had blasted into Tang Wulin. Even though Dragon Air and the Golden Dragon Body neutralized part of it, the remaining portion was still rooted inside his body. Xu Lizhi could mentally trigger it to explode at any moment. It seemed like the competition had already ended regardless.
