Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul is the Black Dragon, I am the Lord of the Gods

Chapter 41 Partiality
……

"The power of his soul skill is a bit excessive."

Looking at the broken granite, Xie Yue's eyes changed.

The granite that he couldn't cut through was shattered with a single blow?

"murderous look……"

An elderly man who looked to be in his seventies or eighties, dressed in a black robe, walked over.

"Dean Aura."

The students all bowed their heads in respect.

“Hmm.” Dean Aura nodded and looked at Hu Liena.

"This child, was arranged by His Holiness the Pope?"

Twin martial souls, innate full soul power, and Hu Liena personally took him to register—there's no other possibility than someone from the Pope's faction.

"Yes." Hu Liena nodded.

"Dean Aura, can you tell what's going on with his soul skills?"

“There are mainly two reasons,” Dean Aura said.

"First of all, the age of his first spirit ring is at least eight hundred years."

"Eight hundred?!" Hu Liena looked completely bewildered.

Isn't that even higher than the age limit of their second spirit ring?

“This is the first time I’ve ever seen something like this,” Dean Aura said.

The Spirit Hall has the most comprehensive and detailed information in the entire continent. He has been teaching here for decades and is very familiar with this kind of information. However, he is certain that, at least in the Spirit Hall's records, there has never been a first spirit ring with such a high age.

“Even if his spirit rings are of such high age, their power shouldn’t be that great,” Xie Yue said.

Yan's Flame Lord Martial Soul already had an exceptionally high defensive power, and his second Soul Skill, Granite Rock, was so powerful that even some powerful offensive thousand-year-old Soul Skills couldn't break through it!
But Xuanming actually shattered that thing!

"So, secondly, the destructive power of his martial soul itself is extremely great," Dean Aura said.

"Judging by destructive power alone, the power of his blood spear... is probably no weaker than the Clear Sky Hammer."

Xie Yue's eyes changed, "The Haotian Hammer?"

The strongest weapon spirit in Douluo Continent, it is renowned for its unparalleled power and ultimate strength among weapon spirits. It is the inherited weapon spirit of the Clear Sky Sect, the head of the three upper sects and the number one sect in the world.

Although his Moon Blade is also a top-tier weapon spirit, its power is still far inferior to that of the Clear Sky Hammer.

"Moreover, his martial spirit seems to be able to accumulate killing intent," Dean Aura said.

"Accumulating killing intent? What do you mean?" Xie Yue asked in confusion.

"Killing aura is a special kind of aura that arises from excessive killing," Dean Aura said.

"Some Soul Masters with strong mental power can enhance their killing intent by eliminating distracting thoughts and maintaining pure killing intent. However, the killing intent of ordinary people can only serve as a kind of mental deterrent. To put it bluntly, it can scare people but has no practical effect."

"However, some special weapon spirits can accumulate killing intent during the killing process. This killing intent is not just scary. It can be used to break through many mental abilities. In the confrontation of aura, the killing intent has a great advantage."

In battle, the clash of momentum is crucial. If a Soul Master is overwhelmed in terms of momentum, their confidence will inevitably be shaken.

If one is afraid before the battle even begins, one's full strength cannot be unleashed.

Even if the score was originally 50/50, once the momentum is overwhelmed, it may become 40/60, or even 30/70.

"However, this killing intent is also very dangerous; if you're not careful, it can backfire," Dean Aura said.

"Backlash?" Hu Liena was taken aback.

"why?"

“Killing intent accumulates in the Martial Soul, and the Martial Soul is closely related to the Soul Master himself. When the killing intent is strong enough, it will indirectly affect the Soul Master’s mind,” Dean Aura said.

"Killing is addictive. If you are not strong-willed and cannot control your bloodlust, you will be doomed if you indulge yourself and your bloodlust gets out of control."

"An uncontrolled urge to kill not only harms others, but also turns the individual into a beast, a walking corpse."

"Ordinary Soul Masters, as long as they have a little self-control, will not be affected by the killing intent. However, Soul Masters whose Martial Soul can accumulate killing intent have a killing intent far exceeding that of ordinary people. It is a double-edged sword. If their willpower is not strong enough, they can easily be driven by the desire to kill."

"This child..."

"What's wrong?" Hu Liena asked with some concern.

"It's nothing," Dean Aura shook her head. The killing intent for killing a human is different from that for killing a soul beast, because the state of mind for killing an alien is completely different from that for killing one's own kind, and therefore the killing intent generated is also different.

And this child's murderous intent is enough to have killed someone!

And more than once!
The murderous intent to kill one's own kind is more ferocious, but it is also more likely to get out of control!
Once out of control, these people are not interested in the lives of other species; only their own kind can attract them.

How could the Pope be thinking of training such a young child to have a murderous aura?

That's far too dangerous...

……

"Yan, I originally thought you could at least hold your own in terms of strength, but I didn't expect..."

Looking at Yan, who had been blasted off the Soul Arena by Xuanming, Xie Yue's expression was intriguing.

"I was careless!" Yan said, his face darkening.

"How could I have imagined that he could use his first soul skill consecutively?"

All destructive soul skills have a cooldown!

When Xuanming unleashed the thunderstorm for the second time, he once again used granite to defend against it.

However, after the first thunderstorm shattered his granite, the kid immediately unleashed another thunderstorm!
Smear it on your face and let it all out!

Explosions in succession!

He was once again paralyzed by the first lightning explosion, and couldn't dodge it even if he wanted to!

He was blown away instantly!
If he had known this kid was so cunning, he wouldn't have taken the bait!

"Are you alright?" Hu Liena came over.

Yan stood up instantly, patted his name tag, and said, "It's nothing, Nana, I'm fine..."

"Xuanming, are you alright?" Hu Liena bypassed Yan and went straight to Xuanming, squatting down to check on his condition with concern.

"I'm fine," Xuanming said.

"You still say you're fine." Hu Liena grabbed Xuan Ming's long, white hair, which had become curly from contact with the high heat.

"Look, your hair is all curly."

Xuanming was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked at Yan, who was covered in dust and dirt. Not only was his hair a mess from the lightning explosion, but his upper body also had multiple lightning burns.

"he……"

“He’s tough, he’ll be fine,” Hu Liena said.

"How can your delicate skin compare to his?"

"Nana, I..." Yan felt a pang of heartache.

"Ouch!" Hu Liena cried out, grabbing Xuan Ming's sleeve.

"Look, the clothes are all burned!"

"Yan! Didn't you say you knew your limits?"

Yan looked completely bewildered. "Nana, this is him..."

"Good girl, don't fight him next time." Before Yan could finish speaking, Hu Liena stood up, pulled Xuan Ming along, turned around and left, leaving Yan with only a big eye roll.

"..."

"Xie Yue, that's because he got too close to me and got burned by the flames on my body. I didn't even fight back! You saw it!"

Watching Hu Liena's departing figure, Yan could only turn to Xie Yue and voice his accusation as an innocent bystander.

He was afraid that Xuanming wouldn't know how to fight and would get hurt, so he didn't fight back at all!

Otherwise, how could he not even beat a level 13 Soul Master who doesn't even know how to fight?

“I know,” Xie Yue said.

“Nana knows too.”

"Then she..."

Xie Yue patted Pa Yan on the shoulder and sighed, "Knowing is one thing, but that doesn't change the fact that she's biased."

He knows his sister best; she either likes something or doesn't like it, and the difference in her attitude is very obvious!
