Douluo Dalu: 9 Treasure Sword

The Blazing Academy as one of the Elemental Academies supported but one of the 7 great clans, was considered one of the strongest. This year they stood out, having the team more balanced even when they focus on power.

If we excluded the Godwing Academy, they will be the strongest this year. There's always the doubt with the Godwing because of the difficulty to deal with flying spirit masters.

A arrived at the arena just as the match was about to start. The match was in the central arena, as they were two teams with 0 loses. Both teams entered the ring.

For the Blazing Academy side, their formation can be considered as a triangular one. On the front it was Huo Wushuang, he was an average looking man, a spirit ancestor with One-Horned Tyrant Dragon spirit. His spirit is considered one with the strongest power, only a little lower than the Lighting Tyrant Dragon spirit, considered the best spirit beast.

At the rear they have Huo Wu, she was a very beautiful woman with exquisite facial features and red long hair. She was a spirit ancestor with Fire Shadow spirit, being the control system of the team.

Huo Wan and Huo Weng stayed with Huo Wu supporting her with their spirits. Both of them are always hooded so it's difficult to see how they are. They were spirit elders with the Spark Spirit, it's a special support spirit that only can support fire type. But their power is undeniable, to fire types it's very close to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

At the side there were the twins Huo Yun and Huo Yu, they had some gloomy appearance. They both are spirit ancestors with the Fire Crane spirits, being the speed attack system of the team.

The last one is Huo Bao and situated at Wushuang back, he had short red hair, with an unremarkable face. He was a spirit elder with the Fire Leopard spirit, like Wushuang, he was a power attack system, supporting him.

On Shrek's side, they were the 4 substitute members of the team with Xiao Wu, Mubai and, for the first time participating, Chenxiang.

When they were all positioned, they activated their spirits. Chenxiang ring configuration, yellow, purple, purple, black, caused a lot of shock in the spectators, followed by a cheer.

"10.000 years old ring!" "Two purples and one black! Impossible" "Beauty, come play with daddy" It could be listened to shouts of the spectators. I frowned listening to the last one.

"Start!" Shouted the announcer.

Wushuang started charging colliding with Mubai. Both punches hit each other, they were strong enough that even a shock wave was created between them. After they hit, both were pushed 3 meters, it was a drawn in pure strength.

"Let's finish this quickly!" shouted Huo Wu. She sent her Fire Shadow in the middle of Shrek's formation, one of her purple rings started shining "<3rd skill: Defying Flame Ring>". Her Fire Shadow caused a little explosion, followed by flames like whip that stroked towards Shrek's members. Each whip was made of condensed flames, plus the initial force of the explosion they gained speed and substance. Even if the strength of the whip weren't too much, they pushed Shrek's members, separating them, breaking their formation.

Just as the skill activated, the twins, Yu and Yun, activated one of their ring skills, surrounding both of their feet in flames gaining speed. They flanked Huo Wu's skill going directly to attack the weaker ones, targeting Jing Ling and Jian Zhu.

While both twins were going at high speed a black light illuminated in the ring, being Chenxiang's 4th ring. When the twins were near their targets, their purple rings lighted up, this time their arms like wings, became fire claws.

Just as the fire claws were to attack their target, both of them received a kick at their side. The culprit of the kicks was Chenxiang, in both cases! Both Chenxiangs had a yellow aura surrounding them with their yellow ring shining. The twins unprepared for the attacks were shot out ring, eliminated of this match.

"You're trying to use speed in front of me, dream on!" Said Chenxiang smiling.

At the same moment, Huo Bao who went through Huo Wu's skill using his innate fire resistance arrived at one of the Chenxiangs. Bao resembled even more to a Leopard and his claws were even bigger, all his body surrounded by fire while all his three rings were illuminated. Bao slashed at Chenxiang, but he didn't feel anything, this Chenxiang dispersed in light particles before Bao's attack.

"Txe!" Bao clicked his tongue "It was the copy. You're truly lucky" he said looking at the other Chenxiang.

"Luck is also a strength" Smiled Chenxiang.

Taking advantage of Bao coming to Shrek's side, the three substitute members of Shrek started attacking him. Wushuang tried to help him, but he was too occupied with Mubai. Under the barrage of attacks of 3 spirit elders against him, even if Bao was a little stronger than them, he couldn't resist too much and after a minute he was eliminated by Xiao Wu who was tired of waiting teleported near it, graving him and throwing him.

"If this continues, we surely would lose" said Huo Wu worried "Let's use that attack"

Listening to Huo Wu, Wan and Weng used all their skills supporting Huo Wu whose fire grew exponentially.

Both yellow rings of Huo Wu lighted, from her Fire Shadow were shot fire wh.i.p.s toward Chenxiang, which caged her forming fire dome "We don't want the birdie to fly away" said Huo Wu smiling.

At the same moment, Wushuang run outside the ring accompanied with Wan and Weng, while saying "Better surrender now that you can"

"Do you think that a weak cage could trap me?" Said Chenxiang.

"A moment is enough" Said Huo Wu while illuminating all her rings. Her Fire Shadow hugged her, creating a fire sphere surrounding her, little by little floating up in the air.

Sensing the increase of her power, Shrek's team knew that it would be a tremendous attack "Leave it to me! Run!" Shouted Chenxiang to her teammates who left the ring.

"Die!" shouted Huo Wu launching towards the ground. When she collided with the ring it caused a big explosion, shooting flames to all sides, the explosion engulfed Chenxiang. The explosion was so strong that a spirit douluo need to block it, containing in the ring that was now full of smoke.

Al the spectators held their breath, anxious and expectant of what happened. When the smoke dispersed, in the ring previous position, now there was a big crater and in its center stood Hu Wuo. There wasn't any trace of Chenxiang.

The public recuperated from their shock and started talking "There's no trace" "She killed her!" "Murder!"...

I, knowing better, looked to the sky. There stood Chenxiang floating with a calm face "You really think that this little power was enough to defeat me!" Chenxiang shouted, showing her presence, finally to Huo Wu to detect her, changing her face who was a little worried about killing someone to a shocked one.

Chenxiang then slowly approached Huo Wu and punched her stomach "Try better next time". Huo Wu too tired to even use spirit energy couldn't put any resistance falling unconscious.

All the public stayed quiet to shocked trying to find what happened. The truth is that it was only a trick made by Chenxiang, the authentic Chenxiang was the one who was attacked by Bao, she simply used her second ability evading it and hiding from the battle, creating the false impression that the copy was the true one. Then she only need to evade anyone attacking the copy, while waiting in the sky. When Huo Wu used her skill, she destroyed only her copy, Chenxiang being safe outside the attack's range.

"Shrek only teach monsters!" Shouted Chenxiang.

The announcer listening to her recuperated from his stupor and shouted "Shrek Academy Team wins!" Causing a lot of cheers and claps from the audience.

I waited Chenxiang at the exit. When she left, seeing me she hugged me. I accepted "Good job, Xiang. But I must advise you that these tricks won't always work, and even less against my team" I said.

Chenxiang smiled "I know, but I wanted to hide my strength" she turned serious "Bai. If we fight, could you let me fight Mayi alone?"

"If it's a team battle I won't, in the case we fight 1vs1it could be arranged. But really, are you sure? Mayi is the strongest in 1vs1 matches, excelling in defense and attack. You as a speed system don't have too many possibilities to win her, she is even in a higher realm" I explained.

Chenxiang giggled "Thanks to being worried about me, however, I have a plan, let me fight her"

"I only will say that in 1vs1, Mayi will always fight first. What you do with this information is up to you" I shrugged.

Chenxiang smiled "Thanks. Bye, Bai. I need to train hard" Chenxiang saying goodbye kissing my cheek and leaving me alone.
