The sun rose from the east, and the sky was clear and boundless.
The three-day break quickly passed.
In the blink of an eye, the highly anticipated finals began. The vast central arena was already packed to the brim.
The audience's passion erupted like lava, igniting the entire Heaven Dou Academy.
Fang Xuan's first opponent was Shi Mò.
Shi Mò was Level 35. Although his attack power wasn't as tyrannical as Yu Tianheng or Chu Zhongtian, his martial soul, Black Tortoise, was known to have the strongest defense among those of the same level. In terms of difficulty, he was even more difficult to deal with than Fang Xuan's previous opponent, the Level 36 Yu Feng.
This was a formidable opponent.
Fang Xuan's right hand gripped the snow-white hilt of his sword. His deep gaze pierced through his fringe and landed on the tall man in front of him.
This man was over two meters tall. His upper body was bare, and his skin was bronze. Strong muscles bulged from his abdomen and shoulders. His entire body was filled with explosive power.
He was one of the young geniuses who had squeezed into the top ten, Shi Mò.
Many people who weren't familiar with Shi Mò were doubtful. He didn't look like a teenager at all. He was an uncle in his thirties. Everyone was wondering if this guy was over his age.
However, although Shi Mò looked rough, he was indeed only eighteen years old. He was still a youth.
"Fang Xuan, you're strong, but I won't lose"
Shi Mò rubbed his palms together as he warmed up his muscles. His joints cracked as they rubbed against each other. He stared solemnly at Fang Xuan, not daring to be careless.
After these few days of competition, Fang Xuan's strength was clear for all to see. No one dared to underestimate him.
Fang Xuan, the previously unknown trash prince, had unknowingly grown into one of Heaven Dou Academy's most dazzling geniuses.
"Then let's see who's stronger"
Golden Soul force rose from the surface of Fang Xuan's body. Strength erupted from the soles of Fang Xuan's feet, directly shattering the ground. Borrowing this explosive force, Fang Xuan's body flew out. As he flew, he suddenly pulled out the Shadowless Sword that was sealed in the scabbard.
"Hua"
The slender, silver-white blade was incomparably sharp.
It easily tore through the air and rotated 180 degrees in the air. Like a silver crescent moon, it swiftly struck Shi Mò's body.
"Clang"
A shadowless sword struck Shi Mò with unerring accuracy, but it did not tear through his defense like Fang Xuan had imagined. Instead, it sounded as if it had struck a piece of steel, and a piercing metallic clang rang out.
"What kind of perverse defense is this?"
The corner of Fang Xuan's mouth twitched slightly. He had taken a blow from his Sword Drawing Technique, but Shi Mò remained unmoved. Nothing had happened to him at all. Such a perverted level of defense made him a little speechless.
"Hehe, Fang Xuan, your sword is only so-so. Do you want to break through my defense? You're still far from it"
A Black Tortoise quietly floated above Shi Mò's head. Streaks of jade-green light drooped down, forming a sturdy defensive barrier that protected Shi Mò.
Just now, Fang Xuan's sword had been blocked by the Black tortoise's defensive barrier.
(⊙ o ⊙) …
Fang Xuan almost burst out laughing as he looked at the black tortoise lying on top of Shi Mò's head.
Another strange martial soul …
Douluo's martial souls are really strange. They have all kinds of things.
Fang Xuan cursed in his heart, his heart full of evil thoughts.
"Black Tortoise Possession"
However, Shi Mò didn't notice Fang Xuan's strange thoughts. He was focused on defeating the latter. He roared and directly added the martial soul to his body. His entire body flickered with a green light.
In the next moment, a huge fist mixed with a strong gust of wind violently smashed into Fang Xuan's chest.
"Bang"
Fang Xuan groaned. The powerful force hit his chest, causing the blood in his body to churn. He tasted something sweet in his throat, and a trickle of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
A fierce look flashed across his eyes. He took a direct hit from Shi Mò, but he didn't take a step back. Instead, he swung his Shadowless sword again, wildly slashing at Graphite.
[Storm Slash]
The power of the Sword Drawing Technique increased by 30%.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! The Shadowless sword swept through the void, bringing with it an ear-piercing sound of air exploding. It swept forward like a fierce tornado, crazily slashing at Shi Mò's sturdy shield.
"Crack"
The wind from the sword violently collided with Xuanwu's martial soul's defensive shield. The shield, which was as sturdy as steel, actually cracked open with a "crack".
The power of this Storm Slash was too strong. It directly broke through Shi Mò's defense, and then the sword slashed at Shi Mò's strong body, forcefully knocking him over.
"Pfft …"
Shi Mò's face was pale, and he immediately spat out a mouthful of blood. He felt as if he had been hit by a wild beast. His whole body convulsed in pain, and there was even a sword wound on his chest, which was bleeding non-stop.
"What a strong force, how did you …"
He stared at Fang Xuan in disbelief, as if he didn't understand how the latter had broken through his defense. With a strong sense of unwillingness, Graphite fell heavily to the ground.
"Fang Xuan wins"
The judges noticed that Graphite had fallen, and immediately announced Fang Xuan's victory, causing an uproar in the surroundings.
"What's going on? Shi Mò lost?"
However, in the blink of an eye, Fang Xuan, who was originally at a disadvantage, actually turned the tables and defeated Shi Mò in one fell swoop. Everyone's faces were full of shock, and their eyes shone with a strange light.
[Congratulations on defeating a three-ringed Soul Expert. You are rewarded with 100 draws, Soul Points * 100]
At this moment, a system notification sounded in his mind.
???
Fang Xuan was stunned, and his face was a little blank. When he came to his senses, his heart was filled with joy.
He opened his interface:
[Strongest Swordsman System]
[Host: Fang Xuan]
[Level: LV31]
[Title: Soul Elder]
[Soul Points: 100/600]
[Weapon: Shadowless sword]
[Proficiency: Minor Sword Drawing Technique (0/200)]
[Mental Enlightenment: Sword Force]
[Sword Bestowed by God: 1]
[Martial Soul: Soul of the Ice Phoenix (Elementary 70/100), Soul of the Immortal Nine heart Begonia (Elementary 30/100)]
[Talents: Blade of Frost, Blade of Healing]

[Available Number of Draws: 200]
[As a Lone Douluo of the World's Edge, your strength will improve with every opponent you defeat!]
He could see that his Soul Points had indeed increased by 100 points, and the number of draws also increased by 100.
At this moment, Fang Xuan finally understood the true meaning of the notification at the bottom of his interface.
He didn't expect that after the system upgrade, defeating opponents would reward him with the number of draws and Soul Points. In this case, wouldn't he be able to greatly increase his strength through battle?
Defeating a Soul Expert would reward him with 100 draws, which was just enough to exchange for a lottery ticket. If he defeated ten Soul Experts, he would receive 1,000 draws, which was just enough to buy a thousand-year Soul Ring.
Furthermore, defeating a Soul Expert would reward him with 100 draws. What about defeating even stronger opponents? Soul Ancestors? What about Soul Kings?
Would he receive even more rewards …?
Thinking of this, Fang Xuan was a little excited, and he was looking forward to the future.
