The forest world shattered the soul barrier of the arena and plummeted straight toward Long Yue.
Long Yue felt unprecedented pressure, as if a real world were descending from the sky, its terrifying mass threatening to crush him flat. Yet, faced with such a situation, his eyes showed not a trace of retreat—only boundless excitement and madness.
"Hahaha, bring it on!" he roared, gathering the dark yellow power of towering mountains and the deep blue force of mighty rivers in his hands before striking fiercely at the rapidly descending green planet.
"BOOM—"
A deafening explosion shook the heavens and the earth. The audience widened their eyes, staring fixedly at the arena, afraid to miss this rare, earth-shattering collision. Long Yue, wielding the might of the Mountain Dragon King, clashed head-on with a green planet. Regardless of the outcome, this would undoubtedly be an unforgettable moment in the tournament's history!
Long Yue gasped heavily, his feet embedded in the arena floor, his hands trembling uncontrollably. Yet his eyes shone with an unusual brilliance as he gazed at Jing Shaoyu, who hovered in the air like a deity, and laughed wildly. "Hahaha, is that all? Keep it coming!"
Around Long Yue, countless towering trees burst forth from the ground, forcibly transforming the alloy arena into a lush forest. In the collision with the green planet, Long Yue emerged victorious—the green planet shattered into countless emerald specks that rained down onto the arena, forming this very woodland.
Jing Shaoyu looked down at Long Yue with cold indifference and said flatly, "As you wish."
As his words fell, a blue sphere—no smaller in size than the green planet—appeared. Within it, a vast ocean seemed to churn, with towering waves and surging tides. Gazing at it, the audience felt as though they were truly witnessing the boundless expanse of the Douluo Sea.
The Ocean Planet!
The deep-blue Ocean Planet followed the trajectory of the Forest Planet, hurtling toward Long Yue at breakneck speed. Long Yue's expression changed drastically—he sensed a pressure far heavier and more suffocating than before, at least several times greater than that of the Forest Planet!
His legs began to sink slowly, and the alloy floor beneath his feet cracked under the strain. Gritting his teeth, Long Yue clenched his fists as the sixth soul ring behind him blazed with light. The phantom of an enraged Mountain Dragon King materialized behind him, and in an instant, his power and aura exploded exponentially, allowing him to straighten his posture and throw a punch at the Ocean Planet.
"BANG—" "BOOM—" "CRACK—"
Three distinct sounds reverberated through the grand stadium. Surging tides washed over the finals arena, leaving it spotlessly clean. As the waters receded, they carried the forest away, leaving only a solitary figure standing on the vast stage.
"Cough—" Long Yue staggered to his feet, blood trickling from his lips. Every bone in his body felt misaligned, wracked with pain—yet this level of agony was nothing new to him. Wiping the blood from his mouth, he raised his head to glare at Jing Shaoyu.
Long Yue's eyes turned crimson, his expression twisting into madness. A furious roar tore from his throat as a dark-gold radiance enveloped his body, and glowing specks of light began to emerge around him.
The Monster Academy students watching from the sidelines exhaled in relief—only to sink into deeper worry. Given the strength Jing Shaoyu had displayed, could Long Yue, even with his two-word battle armor, truly defeat him?
Led by Gu Yue, the six women were filled with anticipation and confusion. It was their first time seeing Jing Shaoyu in such a form, and only now did they realize his strength had reached such a terrifying level.
Dark golden dragon wings unfurled from Long Yue's back as the overwhelming aura of his two-word battle armor, "Dragon King," erupted across the arena. Clad entirely in dark golden armor, Long Yue abruptly straightened before leaping into the air, charging straight toward Jing Shaoyu.
With the enhancement of his two-word battle armor, flight was effortless for Long Yue.
Jing Shaoyu's eyes remained calm and unshaken—Long Yue's battle armor did nothing to disturb his composure. As Long Yue attacked, he simply raised his hand slightly, and a red sphere instantly materialized at the tip of the Endslayer Spear.
This red sphere was larger than the previous two. Inside it, an unquenchable inferno raged, while waves of scorching heat rolled across its surface. Like a miniature sun, it hovered above the grand stadium, making the audience feel the oppressive intensity of midsummer.
Flame Planet!
The crimson Flame Planet didn't descend to the ground. Instead, it collided with Long Yue midair as he swung his iron fist toward it. The sphere radiated extreme heat, meeting Long Yue head-on.
The next moment, a blinding flash erupted from their clash—so sudden that no one could react in time. The explosive light dazzled most of the spectators, though a few still managed to witness the outcome of Long Yue's assault.
A dark golden figure plummeted from the sky, crashing heavily onto the arena floor and carving out a massive, human-shaped crater. Yet, the figure only occupied a third of the pit.
"ARGH—!"
Long Yue lay in the crater, roaring in frustration as he struggled to push himself up with his limbs, desperate to continue the fight. Jing Shaoyu watched him impassively. Above, a fourth planet appeared—a deep yellow, colossal sphere.
This was the purest Earth Planet, its interior compressed with dense rock and soil, its surface layered with towering mountain ranges. It was larger than the Flame Planet and heavier than the Ocean Planet.
The Earth Planet fell even faster, descending in the blink of an eye.
By the time the audience recovered from the blinding flash, what greeted their eyes was a massive, circular boulder—so enormous they had to crane their necks to see it—plummeting from the sky and slamming onto Long Yue, who still lay on the arena.
"BOOM—!"
A dull, resonant sound reverberated in everyone's ears, as if rising from the depths of the earth. It felt as though their hearts were being constricted, suffocating them, leaving them unable to breathe—let alone cry for help!
On the VIP platform, En Ci abruptly stood up, his initial composure gone, replaced by a dark, stormy expression as he stared at the arena. He had never expected the battle to unfold like this—it had completely deviated from his predictions and slipped beyond his control!
Beside him, Cai Yue'er also rose silently, her eyes shimmering with a concealed silver light.
The earth shattered, yet Jing Shaoyu's movements didn't stop. He held the Endslayer Spear horizontally before him, gripping it with both hands as purple light swirled around the weapon. Behind him, the six emerald wings flickered with green embers.
The spear rotated, its tip pointing toward the heavens.
Green light and purple light met in the sky, then slowly stretched apart to either side.
"What is that?!" Dai Yun'er stared wide-eyed at the object emerging between the green and purple lights, her mouth agape with shock.
Before her, Dai Yueyan wore an identical expression of astonishment, as did Su Mu beside him. Every spectator in the audience mirrored the same stunned disbelief.
"The empire's territory?!" On the rostrum, Dai Tianling murmured in bewilderment.
"No, it's the Star Luo Continent!" Tang Bingyao beside him corrected, his gaze equally vacant. Never had he imagined seeing the full panorama of Star Luo Continent in such circumstances.
Yes—an entire continent!
Above Jing Shaoyu's head floated a landmass intimately familiar to most present—the Star Luo Continent!
It was rendered with breathtaking realism: the islands dotting its surrounding seas, the mountain ranges and rivers within, the plains and lakes, hills and marshes, cities and villages—all depicted with such clarity and completeness, as if the real Star Luo Continent had been miniaturized!
Those with exceptionally sharp eyesight could even discern the colossal city standing at the continent's heart—the very place they currently occupied—Star Luo City!
Jing Shaoyu had somehow conjured a phantom of the entire Star Luo Continent. This was beyond incredible!
The moment the phantom fully materialized, the crowd erupted. No one spared a glance for Long Yue lying doglike on the arena floor—all attention was seized by this unprecedented spectacle.
Gu Yue's eyes flashed with sudden realization before she immediately turned to Na'er beside her. Na'er appeared perfectly composed, as if she'd anticipated this all along, though she quickly feigned surprise upon meeting Gu Yue's gaze.
But it was too late.
Returning to the sole protagonist of this moment—Jing Shaoyu held aloft what seemed like an illusory replica but was in truth an actual projection of Star Luo Continent. Without hesitation or mercy, he hurled it downward toward Long Yue.
The Mountain Dragon King claimed to bear continents upon his back? Very well—today he'd be given one to test that boast!
The scaled-down continental projection descended slowly from the sky, instantly enveloping the entire Star Luo Grand Stadium. Daylight vanished in an instant, leaving only artificial lighting as an indescribable pressure blanketed the area. The audience paled—they finally understood this was no illusion, but the real continent's weight!
And this was merely peripheral pressure. As the primary target, Long Yue was already sinking into the earth along with the arena floor, his limbs and torso visibly deforming under the strain.
"Stop this!"
En Ci could no longer remain seated. With a thunderous shout, he materialized in the arena, brilliant light erupting from his hands as he struck upward at the descending projection.
