Chapter 633 - Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda (1/2)
As for the other two kings of the Monster Academy, they were both agility-type soul masters. No one knew why they didn't partic.i.p.ate in the two-on-twos.
If Tang Wulin were to ask Long Yue this question, he would tell him that only the top three spots were meaningful. He had arranged for three teams to compete because he was sure that three teams would be enough. The one-on-one compet.i.tion was a demonstration of personal strength, and naturally, everyone who could partic.i.p.ate would partic.i.p.ate.
Hua Lantang narrowed his eyes and looked at Tang Wulin. He was a very stable person. He had watched Tang Wulin's previous games and discussed with Su Mu the abilities of this young opponent.
He and Ye Zhi had been partners for many years, and their teamwork was tremendous. They were called the Power Couple in the Monster Academy. Let me avenge you, Su Mu, thought Hua Lantang
Ye Zhi's focus was on the other opponent – she was staring at Gu Yue. They had some knowledge of the skills of the other students from the Shrek Academy, but they knew practically nothing about the girl standing beside Tang Wulin. I've only seen her compete in the two-on-twos, and in her previous matches, she did nothing but a.s.sist a few times. In most matches, Tang Wulin defeated his opponent alone. But I don't think the Shrek Academy will randomly choose a student to partic.i.p.ate in such an important tournament. Based on the fact that she can team up with the captain of the Shrek Academy group, her power must be extraordinary.
Fang'er, in a long white dress, was sitting at a VIP table. In front of her stood several soul screens. She had a soul headset microphone on her head and was staring at the screens with burning eyes.
“Welcome, everyone, to the Continental Young Elites Tournament. My name is Fang'er, and I will be commentating on this two-on-two match today!” Her voice was amplified by the microphone so she could be heard in every corner of the stadium.
“I believe everyone is very interested in this upcoming match. Hua Lantang and Ye Zhi of the Monster Academy versus Tang Wulin and Gu Yue of the Shrek Academy.
“As for Hua Lantang and Ye Zhi, I'm sure you all know their strength. They are both members of the Monster Eight Kings of the Monster Academy. Hua Lantang is called Wolf King. His martial soul is the Dragon Wolf, the most powerful kind of wolf. He has two different bloodlines: dragon and wolf. Legend has it that a dragon was attracted by a wolf king and had a relations.h.i.+p with it, thus giving birth to the dragon wolves. This kind of martial soul is unique to the Star Luo continent and it's very powerful.
“Ye Zhi is also known as Tower King; her martial soul is the legendary Seven Treasures Glazed PaG.o.da, which can greatly enhance one's abilities. The Seven Treasures Glazed PaG.o.da was the most powerful support-type martial soul 20,000 years ago. She and Hua Lantang make a great team; their outstanding performance won them the second place in the last tournament.
“As for their opponent, Tang Wulin, he is quite the topic of conversation these days. In terms of soul power, he is weaker than Wolf King Hua Lantang. But since we still don't know what his martial soul is, the outcome of this fight is anybody's guess.
“What interests me more is Tang Wulin's partner. This girl named Gu Yue has been fighting beside Tang Wulin in the two-on-two compet.i.tion. She has a fire-type martial soul, I think, since I've seen her use a fireball in a match. Other than that, we don't know anything else about her.
“I hope Hua Lantang and Ye Zhi will learn from Su Mu's mistakes and go all out to secure the win.”
The contestants couldn't hear Fang'er's commentary because of the barrier. Now Tang Wulin only had eyes for his rivals.
“Three, two, one, begin!” the judge declared.
The instant the match began, Tang Wulin and Hua Lantang charged towards each other at almost the same time.
Two golden soul rings appeared around Tang Wulin. A flash of brilliant light, and he activated his Golden Dragon Body.
