Soul Land IV (Douluo Dalu) : Ultimate Fighting

Chapter 609 – The Sparring Begins

Wu Xinhui said in a low voice, “I’ve already shown you the video footage of these two students’ battling over the past few days. You guys are familiar with their abilities and have also formulated the corresponding tactics to deal with them. You will execute everything according to the tactics. You must defeat the other party. For all of you, it is an honor to be able to defeat Shrek Academy’s outstanding students.”

“Don’t look down on them just because they’re only in their first year. They’re also the cream of the crop among the first years in Shrek Academy, and they were able to defeat their seniors from the third year. They’re almost guaranteed to enter Shrek Academy’s Inner Court in the future. So, all of you will have to face the top geniuses of the entire Federation, the strongest in their age group. Whoever loses the competition because of carelessness, hmph!”

“Yes!” The ten young students replied in unison. They were all in their best state.

After Nana brought Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu away that day, Wu Xinhui went to complain to the Dean. But the result of the complaint was naturally… no results.

The Dean more or less knew about Nana’s identity and true strength. Why would a god-rank powerhouse take away two students? The Dean couldn’t wait to let Nana participate in activities related to teaching in the academy.

One must know that other than Shrek Academy, no other academy in the Federation had a god-rank powerhouse!

If not for the fear of affecting Nana’s perception of the academy, the Dean would have already asked her to truly become a teacher at the academy. If Nana had any request, the Imperial Sun Moon Soul Engineer Academy would definitely agree!

The Dean was already very satisfied that Nana had taken the initiative to request for this sparring in ten days. Why would he blame or deal with her? Furthermore, the Dean didn’t have the abilities to deal with her neither!

The Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy’s large martial arena was the largest building in the entire Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy. It was 200 meters long, 150 meters wide, and 50 meters tall. The entire building was oval in shape and a huge white dome could be seen from afar, just like a gigantic egg.

This large martial arena had been renovated many times and all the important activities of the Imperial Sun Moon Soul Engineer Academy were held here. It was like a gigantic stadium.

But today, the martial arena was quiet and there wasn’t a single person in the stands because the entire school was on vacation.

There were only a few dozen people gathered in the venue, waiting silently.

These were the teachers from the Imperial Sun Moon Soul Engineer Academy, and they were specially waiting to watch this match. They also wanted to see how strong Shrek Academy’s students were.

With a history of over 30,000 years, Shrek Academy’s position as the number one academy in the Federation had never wavered in the past 10,000 years. There was even an Inner Court student who was the focus of attention wherever he went, and he would be respected by all the forces.

Although there weren’t many graduates in Shrek Academy every year, even if they were only Outer Court graduates, they were still people that were fought over by all parties. This was because those who could graduate from Shrek were truly outstanding talents.

The first years had just graduated, which meant that these two youths had only cultivated and studied in Shrek Academy for a year. In just a year, did they gain the strength to challenge their third years ? More importantly, they had already defeated Shrek’s third years.

The Imperial Sun Moon Soul Engineer Academy had researched the live broadcast throughout the entire Federation for a long time. It turned out that Lan Xuanyu, who was in charge of leading the team, played an extremely important role, especially that strange weapon of his that no one could block.

He was actually one of the two Shrek Academy students that came this time.

Everyone wanted to see how strong Lan Xuanyu was.

For this, the Imperial Sun Moon Soul Engineer Academy even made some special preparations.

Standing in front of this group of people was an amiable looking old man who wasn’t tall. He had a round body and a pair of smiling eyes. Anyone who saw him would feel that he was harmless.

However, this person was the current Dean of the Imperial Sun Moon Soul Engineer Academy and had been in charge of the academy for 20 years. This was just a sparring session between the lower years, yet this person actually came personally. It could be seen how much importance the Imperial Sun Moon Soul Engineer Academy placed on this.

Although Nana had extended the time, it also gave the Imperial Sun Moon Soul Engineer Academy more time to prepare.

“Dean.” Director Wu Xinhui came before the fat elder and bowed respectfully.

“En, is everything ready?” The Dean smiled.

“Everything is ready.” Wu Xinhui didn’t say much. He had known the old Dean for a very long time. Although he was always smiling, he was actually very swift and decisive. He especially didn’t like his subordinates to be long-winded, so he answered with the simplest of words.

Right at this moment, three people walked in from the side of the martial arena.

The moment they walked into the arena, all the teachers from the Imperial Sun Moon Soul Engineer Academy felt their eyes light up.

Lin Tianliu was also among the teachers. He came today not to watch the sparring but because he knew that Nana would definitely come today, so he rushed over early in the morning to see her.

Today, Nana was wearing a simple light blue dress without any decorations. It was a most ordinary one with sleeves. Nana looked very conservative in this dress, especially when compared to many young girls who wanted to expose more skin in this age. But even so, she was still so magnificent that all the men present couldn’t take their eyes off her.

She was holding hands with one person each. This pair of young boys and girls were not dressed in Shrek Academy’s uniform but wore black t-shirts with similar patterns.

The young man had black hair, sharp brows, and bright eyes. His big eyes were extremely lively. For some reason, when they saw him, everyone instinctively felt that he was very similar to Nana. They clearly had different temperaments, but they got this feeling.

The young lady was also extremely beautiful. Her dark blue long hair was tied into a ponytail at the back of her head, making her look very neat and tidy. There was a smile on her fair little face, and her big eyes that were the same color as her hair would occasionally glance at the young man on the other side with a threatening gaze.

When the Dean saw them, he actually took the initiative to welcome them, and the teachers behind him naturally followed him.

“Teacher Nana, you’ve worked hard,” the Dean said with a smile. Then, he looked at Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu and said, “Hello, I am the Dean of the Imperial Sun Moon Soul Engineer Academy, Yao Lilin. Welcome to our academy!”

“Hello, Dean. I am a first year from Shrek Academy, Lan Xuanyu. This is my classmate, Bai Xiuxiu,” Lan Xuanyu said.

Nana nodded at Yao Lilin and said, “Shall we begin?”

“Alright.”

At this moment, Lan Xuanyu could already see that there was a huge platform in the middle of the arena. The platform was circular and had a diameter of over 50 meters. There were specialized defensive soul devices around it that could naturally isolate the interior once activated. Even the interior of the arena was clearly engraved with soul arrays to defend against damage to the ground.

Lin Tian stood among the teachers and looked at Nana with infatuation. He wanted to walk out and greet her, but he didn’t have the courage.

Lan Xuanyu said, “Then I’ll go first.” As he spoke, he was already walking towards the martial arena.

Yao Lilin waved his hand at Wu Xinhui. Wu Xinhui understood and walked to the side to select a participant. The first round of sparring was about to begin!
