Douluo Continent: Starting from Awakening the Vermilion Bird Martial Soul

The two of them, panting heavily, stared intently at each other.

"Dugu Bo, let's settle this with one move." Yue Guan knew he couldn't drag this out any longer and had to defeat Dugu Bo as soon as possible, otherwise not only would he lose face, but the Spirit Hall would too.

He has made many contributions since joining the Spirit Hall, and he cannot afford to fail here.

Sixth Soul Skill: Golden Stamens Flowing with Rosy Clouds!

Yue Guan unleashed his strongest soul skill to date, summoning the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum. He then ascended into the air, surrounded by countless flower blades formed from its petals. These flower blades then transformed into countless streams of light, attacking Dugu Bo.

The Soul Arena is only so big, and his sixth soul skill is a group attack soul skill, so it won't be easy for Dugu Bo to dodge it.

Sixth Soul Skill: Azure Serpent Emperor's Strike!

A massive phantom of the Azure Scale Serpent appeared, then unleashed a beam of dark green light. Dugu Bo used his strongest soul skill to date, the beam containing potent poison, which shot straight towards Yue Guan in mid-air.

The powerful beam of light dispersed many of the incoming streams of light, but some still hit Dugu Bo. Similarly, Dugu Bo's soul skill also struck Yue Guan. Although the two of them defended in time, they were still hit by the opponent's soul skill and flew out of the Soul Arena.

"Is this considered a draw?" Tang Hao was somewhat surprised. He thought Dugu Bo would lose, but it turned out to be a draw.

"Yue Guan was careless and released his soul skill in mid-air. As a result, Dugu Bo did not dodge but countered with his sixth soul skill, making it difficult for Yue Guan to dodge and thus being hit by Dugu Bo's soul skill. Otherwise, Dugu Bo would have lost."

Tang Xiao explained in a deep voice.

Chapter 53 Dust Meets You, Dust in My Heart

Yue Guan was unwilling to accept that he had lost to Dugu Bo in a draw due to carelessness, but the battle was over and he could not fight Dugu Bo again in front of everyone.

Dugu Bo didn't care about the draw. He wasn't here for the exchange meeting or for that soul bone. He knew he couldn't get it with his own strength.

Putting aside everything else, he couldn't even beat Tang Xiao from the Haotian Sect. He came here mainly to find a way to detoxify. He himself was fine, as he could still withstand the poison. But his son, Dugu Xin, was different. His soul power level was not high, so he would suffer immense pain every time the poison took effect.

Every time Dugu Xin was poisoned, he would use his own soul power plus his Jade Scale Serpent King Poison to suppress it by fighting poison with poison, but this also caused the toxins in Dugu Xin's body to accumulate more and more.

Although breaking through to the Title Douluo level would give him a chance, he is already forty-three years old and has only just reached the Soul Emperor level.

At the current rate of cultivation, it's impossible to know when he'll reach the Title Douluo level. He can't guarantee that his son will live to see that day.

However, as things stand, he hasn't encountered anyone capable of curing the poison. Their poison is incurable by anyone on the entire continent, so how could he possibly hope that someone here could cure it?

Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly felt a gaze fixed on him.

Looking back, in the rest area of ​​the Heavenly Dou Empire, Di Hong was smiling and looking at him. The gaze was also coming from him. Dugu Bo saw him at a glance. There was no way around it; he was just too outstanding.

Dugu Bo frowned slightly, clearly not expecting that he had been targeted.

However, there was no hostility in Di Hong's gaze; on the contrary, it carried a scrutinizing quality.

Following Di Hong's gaze, Tang Yuehua noticed that he was staring intently at Dugu Bo, which puzzled her.

She always felt that Di Hong seemed to know him very well, and that he seemed to have some kind of feeling about him.

"Do you need my help?"

Her voice was very soft, and only Di Hong could hear it.

"Hmm?" Di Hong looked at her in confusion.

"You seem quite interested in Dugu Bo. Perhaps I can help you," Tang Yuehua said, her voice still soft but full of confidence.

Di Hong shook his head: "No need, I can handle it."

"Alright." Tang Yuehua was a little disappointed. She had originally wanted to prove herself. She wanted to let Di Hong know that even if she couldn't become a Soul Master, she was definitely not useless.

Tang Yuehua was clearly mistaken. She thought that Di Hong did not accept her feelings because she could not become a Soul Master. After all, this was a world where Soul Masters were revered. Di Hong had exceptional talent and was destined to become a Title Douluo, while she would forever remain at level nine.

However, the truth is that Di Hong doesn't want to get too involved with the Clear Sky Sect. Getting involved with the Clear Sky Sect is the same as getting involved with Tang San, who is going to rebel in the future. At that time, the Clear Sky Sect is very likely to become his enemy.

He couldn't guarantee that Tang Yuehua wouldn't stand by his side, and being with Tang Yuehua would easily expose their plans, meaning they'd be dead before the rebellion even began.

If he hadn't rebelled and had instead been a loyal subject, he would definitely have agreed to Tang Yuehua's proposal. She was a great beauty, with a good family background, good looks, good temperament, a good figure, and gentleness.

If a woman who is almost perfect except for not being able to become a Soul Master were to pursue him, he would truly be a beast, even worse than a beast. Although strength is paramount in this world, finding a wife wouldn't hinder his cultivation.

Moreover, Tang Yuehua's inability to become a Soul Master was not a problem in his view.

Perhaps the Ninth-Grade Purple Ganoderma can help her. After all, this thing allows Gangzi to continue cultivating, so there's no reason why Tang Yuehua can't. Is there something she's lacking? Yu Xiaogang only has two more soul rings than her.

He felt that Tang Yuehua's martial spirit was no worse than that of the Golden Sacred Dragon.

After Dugu Bo and Yue Guan finished their battle, the lottery continued.

Tang Hao yawned listlessly.

"Why isn't it my turn yet? I'm so itchy to watch others fight!"

"What's the rush? It'll be your turn sooner or later," Tang Xiao said.

The draw is over.

The Spirit Hall announced: "Central Battle Arena, the third match: Emperor Hong of the Heaven Dou Empire versus Ghost of the Spirit Hall."

Upon hearing his name called, Di Hong strode towards the central Soul Arena.

"Go Dihong!" Tang Yuehua shouted loudly.

After she finished shouting, she nudged Tang Hao again.

Tang Hao was taken aback at first, then helplessly joined in the cheering.

On the Spirit Hall's side, when Ghostly heard that his opponent was Di Hong, he immediately frowned.

"You'd better be careful," Yue Guan reminded him with some concern. He had been secretly observing Di Hong for the past few days. Although Di Hong was only fourteen years old, his strength had already reached level sixty-nine, and he also possessed a top-tier fire-attribute martial soul. Of course, this was just his opinion.

As for the quality of Di Hong's martial soul, he didn't know.

Ghost's strength is the same as his own, and it is very likely that he is no match for Di Hong.

"Don't worry, I'll admit defeat if I can't beat him." Ghost knew he might not be a match for Di Hong, but not fighting was definitely not an option.

The two stepped onto the Soul Battle Arena.

Qian Xunji on the high platform immediately became interested, as did Bibi Dong in the Spirit Hall's rest area. Everyone was saying that Di Hong, like her, possessed innate full soul power, but of course, she and her teacher absolutely did not believe it.

Both of them possess innate full soul power, but she hasn't even reached the Soul King level yet, while the other has already become a Soul Saint, and they are the same age.

Is the Spirit Hall not even as powerful as a kingdom?

In the audience, Yu Xiaogang took out a small notebook to take notes. He was very interested in Di Hong, whose martial soul had also mutated.

Because of the mutation of his martial soul, he was unable to become a powerful soul master, so he turned to martial soul research. He is currently studying this subject, and Di Hong is a good subject for observation.

It's a pity we couldn't observe it up close.

Also in the audience.

A middle-aged man in white clothes with white hair, who looked to be in his thirties, looked at Di Hong with curiosity after he came on stage. Although he looked to be only in his thirties, he was actually ninety years old.

He is none other than Chen Jianjun, known as the number one offensive titled Douluo on the continent, and his soul power level is level ninety-six.

A level 96 Title Douluo is already a top-tier powerhouse across the entire continent.

After all, there are vast differences between each level of a Title Douluo, especially after level 95.

There are very few who can defeat him; at least, he hasn't encountered one yet.

They came to Wuhun City in search of powerful opponents.

Unfortunately, he didn't meet him.

He was unaware that Qian Daoliu was not in Wuhun City but had gone to Seagod Island.

Beside him stood a man who bore a resemblance to him but looked much younger; he was Chen Xin, the son of Chen Jianjun.

The father and son stood there like two incredibly sharp swords, but Chen Xin was far inferior. Chen Jianjun's aura was completely contained, and he looked no different from an ordinary person, but upon closer inspection, he was like a divine sword that could be drawn at any moment.

He did not participate in this Soul Master Exchange Meeting because his Soul Power level had exceeded the prescribed level. He was already fifty-four years old this year and was a Soul Master at the Soul Douluo level.

To be honest, if he were younger and had a lower soul power level, he would definitely participate, because there are too many worthy opponents and too many geniuses at this Soul Master Exchange Meeting.

Chapter 54 Crush

This Soul Master Exchange Meeting was organized by the Spirit Hall.

It can be said that it is a gathering of geniuses. Apart from Bibi Dong from the Spirit Hall, the two from the Clear Sky Sect and that Di Hong are all top geniuses.

Chen Jianjun's sharp gaze was fixed on Di Hong.

"Xin'er, take a good look at him."

"Perhaps in the future, as long as he doesn't die prematurely, he will surely become the strongest person on the continent."

As one of the top titled Douluo on the continent, he has a good eye for people. He believes that Di Hong will definitely become an unparalleled powerhouse in the future, surpassing him is not a problem, and he may even reach the level of a ninety-nine peerless Douluo.

Level 99, that's a level he can only dream of.

Despite being at level 96, he knows very well that it will be difficult to break through to level 97.

The difference between level 96 and level 97 is not just a difference in soul power level.

Hearing his father speak so highly of Di Hong, Chen Xin couldn't help but look at Di Hong on the Soul Battle Stage.
