Douluo: Wuhun Longyuan Sword, I have become the scabbard

Chapter 90: Surprise at the Competition
The two titled Douluo couldn't believe it. Although the Divine Sword was Qian Renxue's fifth soul skill, it was definitely the most powerful of all her skills.

Qian Renxue looked somewhat bewildered, staring blankly as the sword in her hand slowly dissipated.

"how?"

"This really surprised me." Qian Renxue came back to her senses and looked at the Dragon Abyss Sword that Ding Quan had just put down in front of her. The inconspicuous light on the blade slowly dissipated in the face of the golden soul power all around.

An incredibly sharp mental force had just invaded his mind, causing him to become disoriented. The mental force of the person in front of him was even stronger than he had imagined, and the person had already held back.

Although I haven't used my full strength yet, this level is enough for now.

"I can't obtain the Vast Ocean Universe Cover right now. I'll give it to you after I ascend the throne, but..."

"Your Highness, rest assured, I will not disrupt your plans." Ding Quan said, looking at Qian Renxue's expression. It seems that she is indeed worried about him exposing her scheming that has been going on for more than 20 years.

"That's good, let's go!" Qian Renxue gestured to She Long and Ci Xue, the two titled Douluo. The two looked at Ding Quan with slightly threatening eyes, and then flew off in the direction Qian Renxue had left.

Ding Quan breathed a long sigh of relief when he saw the figures of the others disappear. His aura immediately dropped, but his soul power did not weaken.

The two domains disappeared, the reign of supreme power was put away, and the Dragon Abyss Sword's blade returned to its previous state, with the layer of gold on it dissipating.

Without the amplification of these top-tier soul skills, the Dragon Abyss Sword's previous extreme attributes have once again been hidden.

Ding Quan was not surprised to see this, but he had already felt the power of the ultimate. He was now only half a step away from becoming a true ultimate martial soul, and he was sure he could take the second step. Feeling an obstacle in his body being broken, a hint of joy appeared on Ding Quan's face.

Looking around at the surroundings and the commotion from earlier, Ding Quan headed straight for the Heavenly Dou Imperial City.

A moment after Ding Quan left, a man with light green hair and a slender build flew out of Sunset Forest, as if searching for something.

He then went directly to the place where the two had fought before. Although the place had not been damaged by their battle, the powerful and dense elemental energy shocked the Poison Douluo.

Even the residual soul power from the battle could affect my spirit, and its intensity was no less than my own.

Was it a brief clash between two Title Douluos here?
Moreover, the strength of the attributes above is terrifying; they are two types of soul power that I do not recognize.

Two top experts arrived in Tian Dou Imperial City on this day. Dugu Bo looked at the city not far away with an uncertain expression. Tian Dou Imperial City was not very peaceful at the moment.

Thinking of the poison that had afflicted Emperor Xueye, which even he himself was helpless against and could not remove even by using the poison of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent, Dugu Bo sensed the soul power here once more and then flew directly into the interior of Sunset Forest.

"cough!"

"Young Master, are you alright?" She Long was startled when he saw Qian Renxue cough.

"It's alright. His attack was a bit strange; my soul power couldn't completely defend against it," Qian Renxue said, her third soul ring lighting up.

Qian Renxue's third soul skill is called Angel's Blessing, which can heal and restore her own injuries, while also providing a buff to herself.

"They even have this ability."

"It's a soul skill effect." As a titled Douluo, She Long had planned to make a move during Ding Quan's final battle, but he was relieved after seeing Qian Renxue release her Martial Soul True Body.

Having awakened her Martial Soul True Form, Qian Renxue's strength was already no weaker than his own. Under the suppression of the Angel Domain, even as a Title Douluo, he could not unleash his full power.

With his keen eyesight, he naturally saw the ring light up on Ding Quan's martial soul, the Dragon Abyss Sword, indicating that he had released a soul skill.

"During his final attack, all the rings on his spirit lit up, presumably indicating that he had activated all his spirit skills. However, the power he displayed was unimaginable for a Spirit King. The aura emanating from him at the end made my heart tremble." Directly shattering Qian Renxue's fifth spirit skill, the Divine Sword formed from divine power, was something even She Long himself would find difficult to achieve.

"His strength has indeed exceeded my expectations."

"Young Master, are we just going to let him go like this? We've already reached the final stage."

"He still needs to get what he needs through me, and he won't let my plan be exposed." As Qian Renxue flew, she used the head soul bone skill, and her entire body began to change, slowly transforming into the appearance of Xue Qinghe. Her original female voice was also hidden, and it became a slightly androgynous male voice.

As a national treasure of the Heavenly Dou royal family, the Vast Ocean Universe Cover was easily accessible to Xue Qinghe, who was disguised as the crown prince of the Heavenly Dou royal family.

Although he didn't know the specific function of the Vast Ocean Universe Cover, anything that he was willing to risk everything for must be extraordinary.

He had spent twenty years on this plan to seize the country, and at this point, failure was absolutely not an option. This was why he would only give him the Vast Ocean Universe Cover after he had succeeded.

Qian Renxue had no intention of going back on her word. Using the Vast Ocean Universe Cover to get to know one, no, three geniuses whose talent was no less than hers was definitely a worthwhile deal.

"Should we investigate the origin of that Vast Ocean Universe Cover?"

"I will arrange for someone to investigate; you don't need to do anything."

"Then, young master, do you still need me to keep an eye on him?" She Long did not refute. As the crown prince in name, Xue Qinghe, it was indeed very simple for him to investigate the origin of the Vast Ocean Universe Cover.

However, he didn't look well. After all, his surveillance mission seemed to have failed. Two people left right under his nose without him noticing.

"No need. Continuing to keep an eye on him won't be very effective. For the final step, we'll stay in the palace to ensure the plan goes perfectly."

"It was my subordinates' dereliction of duty; they failed to keep an eye on them."

"It's not your fault. Those two probably left a long time ago. It seems they haven't affected my plans." Qian Renxue didn't believe that two Soul Kings could leave silently under the watchful eyes of a Title Douluo. The only explanation was that they had already left. As for why there were their auras there, it must be some special Soul Skill.

Soul skills are incredibly diverse. She discovered that two Shui Bing'ers appeared at Tianshui Academy a year ago, and their soul skills were exactly the same. At that time, Ling Wei and her companion happened to be at Tianshui Academy and were even honored guests. Moreover, the Shui Bing'er's current strength is also extraordinary.

"Young Master, what if he grows up?" Ci Xue's voice was somewhat cold. Ding Quan's strength was already enough to pose a threat to their young master. If he grew up, it would inevitably have an impact on the Spirit Hall.

"You don't need to worry about that!" Qian Renxue's tone turned cold.

"I have spoken too much."

"The following actions must not contain any mistakes, otherwise..."

"Your subordinate understands." With the strength of a Title Douluo, Qian Renxue and the others returned to the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace quietly. Seeing that the people around them had been completely replaced by their own, they were sure that even if they were exposed, they could be suppressed by force, which made them feel a little more at ease.

Ding Quan returned to his residence and went straight to his room to recover.

Releasing himself to the fullest had taken a toll on him, but there was an undisguised joy in his eyes.

He could now barely achieve the ultimate attribute, and thanks to the burst of power just now, he experienced the strength of the ultimate martial soul. In that instant, his soul power took another step forward.

Level 60!
He only needs to absorb one spirit ring to break through to the Soul Emperor level. This speed may have already surpassed that of Tang San in the original novel.

In the original novel, Tang San accepted Xiao Wu's sacrifice when he reached the bottleneck of level 59, and his soul power reached level 66. If it weren't for Xiao Wu's soul ring, it might have taken him some more time to break through to the Soul Emperor level.

As for Qian Renxue's actions, they were not unexpected.

In the original story, Tang San saw through her plan. She knew Tang San's true identity, yet she still tried to win him over despite the fact that he had killed her father.

He even agreed to Tang San's condition that all the Spirit Hall Soul Masters who had besieged him and Xiao Wu in the Star Dou Great Forest be killed. It should be noted that all the Soul Masters who went to hunt down Xiao Wu included Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, as well as countless Soul Saints and Soul Douluos. After all, Xiao Wu was under the protection of the Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape, and she lured these two away, not knowing how many Soul Masters had been dispatched.

But to agree to such conditions just to win over Tang San, an enemy, is completely baffling. It's impossible to know what Qian Renxue was thinking at the time. Although these people were under Bibi Dong's command, they were ultimately members of the Spirit Hall.

Because she had such a sharp mind, Ding Quan dared to act boldly.

Qian Renxue was able to do this much for the exceptionally talented Tang San back then. Now that three geniuses with talents no less than Tang San in the original story have emerged, it's hard to say what she can do, but it's likely she won't easily take action against them.

It's unclear whether Qian Renxue knows Tang San's true identity. It seems Tang San has never used the Clear Sky Hammer in public. Now that Tang Hao has been by Tang San's side, Tang San knows his background and certainly won't easily reveal it.

With Tang San's current strength, he won't encounter any enemies that Blue Silver Grass can't handle in the Soul Master Competition, so he doesn't need to use the Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul.

The finals of this year's Soul Master Competition have already begun, and the results will be announced soon.

Ding Quan wouldn't be able to obtain the Vast Ocean Universe Cover until Qian Renxue ascended the throne, which wouldn't take too long, so he wasn't too worried that she would break her promise.

Putting aside his thoughts, Ding Quan's soul power surged above his head. He thought that his mental power had been enhanced when his attributes reached their peak due to the effects of several top-level soul skills, and that the lifespan of his head soul bone had undergone a leapfrog improvement.

Ding Quan felt something was wrong with his head and touched it.

Sure enough, the dragon horns connected to the head soul bone had grown considerably larger, no longer just two protrusions, but two or three centimeters longer.

The head bone skill, Sharp Will, has significantly increased the boost it provides to me. Now, the boost to all my soul skills is close to 30%, which explains why my strength suddenly increased just now.

Feeling the sharpness emanating from the two dragon horns on his head, and with his current level 60 soul power, he realized that the ultimate attributes were within his grasp.

Now all you need to do is wait patiently and find out which spirit beasts your sixth spirit ring can hunt.

As time went by, news of the Soul Master Tournament finals continued to arrive.

The Shrek Academy team truly shone in this Soul Master Competition, attracting the attention of almost all factions.

There was no other reason than that three Soul Kings appeared in this team, and they were not just at the initial stage of Soul King.

Now that we've reached the finals, there's no need for the teams to hide their strength anymore. The Soul Masters who have made it this far are all geniuses among geniuses, and each team is giving their all to showcase their abilities.

The Shrek team was no exception; once they had gathered information about all the participating teams, continuing to hide their identities became pointless.

Half a month later.

Ding Quan looked at the first-hand news of the Soul Master Competition in his hand with a strange expression.

The champion of this year's Soul Master Competition was indeed the Shrek Academy team. The soul master team of the Heaven Dou Empire won the championship that they had not won in countless competitions. The entire Heaven Dou Imperial City resounded with celebrations, and a piece of news that drove soul masters crazy was also spread.

Tang Hao, the Haotian Douluo, appeared at the finals of the Spirit Master Competition in Wuhun City and rescued two people from the Spirit Hall. Both of them were members of the Shrek Academy team.

These two were also Soul Kings of the Shrek Academy team, but their identities shocked everyone.

One of them was Tang Hao's son, a top genius with twin martial souls. No wonder he had such strength at such a young age. It turned out he was the son of Haotian Douluo. Tang San didn't surprise everyone too much.

What's even more shocking is that another woman, also a Soul King, is actually a 100,000-year-old transformed Soul Beast!

This news is enough to drive all high-level Soul Masters crazy.

Almost no Soul Master can resist the temptation of a 100,000-year Soul Ring. Now that a 100,000-year-old transformed Soul Beast has appeared, how can it not drive Soul Masters across the continent crazy?

However, the fact that the soul beast was taken away by Haotian Douluo calmed these soul masters down considerably.

Ding Quan was also very surprised when he saw the news. Xiao Wu had a soul bone that could hide her aura, but it was still discovered. Moreover, the timing of the discovery was right when the Soul Master Competition finals ended.

Just like in the original story, she was rescued by Tang Dachui. It's just unknown whether Tang Hao would allow Xiao Wu to return to the Star Dou Great Forest now.

Xiao Wu's soul bone, which conceals her aura, is indeed very powerful. Even a Super Douluo might not be able to detect it. However, Bibi Dong, the current Pope of the Spirit Hall, has probably reached level 99. It's just that she can't fully unleash her power because of the Rakshasa God Trial.

Moreover, Ding Quan remembered that Bibi Dong's head soul bone skill was called Real World.

Just by hearing the name of this soul skill, you can tell what its function is.

If Bibi Dong, with her Xuanhuo Eyes, could detect the soul bone on Xiao Wu, then she could naturally detect it as well. It seems that the effect of this soul bone is indeed not as good as the Acacia Heartbreak Red.

"So you really did know!" A voice came from not far away as Ding Quan was pondering.

Qian Renxue? I didn't expect her to arrive so quickly.
