Douluo Continent: I can nurture soul beasts and even perform super evolution.

Chapter 26

"Boom~"

The smoke cleared.

Yan Shaozhe, carrying a skinny boy, glared at Ma Xiaotao with annoyance: "Be careful, don't go too far!"

"Oh."

Ma Xiaotao crossed her arms, raised her head, and stared at Ling Luochen opposite her.

Yao Haoxuan was eliminated.

The balance of power shifted, and Ling Luochen and Su Wen's team, playing six against seven, ultimately lost due to their inability to carry the team alone.

And the moment the outcome is announced.

Ma Xiaotao couldn't wait to pull Su Wen away: "This time he's on our team!"

The second match began half an hour later.

Everyone got into top form before starting another round of the competition.

Su Wen's ultimate ice power suppressed Ling Luochen so much that he couldn't lift his head. This kind of attribute restraint was like bloodline, no wonder Ling Luochen cared so much about him. It was like a delicious pastry, once you experienced it, you could never stop eating it.

Even though Ling Luochen's ice-type attacks were quickly neutralized by Su Wen, the fact that he could gain such an advantage despite being twenty levels apart was truly worthy of his ultimate attribute.

However, its flaws are also quite obvious. After the Ice Emperor's only skill, "Ice Domain," is released, it cannot distinguish between friend and foe.

The entire venue was sped up to 0.75 times.

Even Ma Xiaotao's Phoenix Evil Flame weakened a bit.

However, Su Wen achieved his goal: a one-for-one trade, preventing the opposing control-type Ling Luochen from playing his role.

He did not use the wind blade.

In this high-level battlefield, ordinary attribute skills are useless, especially since he is on average twenty levels below these geniuses. However, after advancing and undergoing the Hurricane Super Evolution, his attributes might also increase in power.

Without Ling Luochen and Su Wen's union, Ma Xiaotao swept through like a whirlwind, living up to her boastful words. Even her impure Evil Fire Phoenix was enough to overwhelm these geniuses of the same age. If only she could fully evolve someday…

"It's over!" Yan Shaozhe clapped his hands, his face beaming.

Everyone immediately lay sprawled out on the field, panting heavily.

The battle consumes not only soul power, but also physical strength.

The latter is different from soul power, where every bit of cultivation yields a corresponding result. It is somewhat ethereal because the physical body is extremely difficult to train, and the cost and benefit are completely disproportionate.

Shrek Academy's current training model can only support the early stages (before level 40), and is completely useless for the later stages (there are no physical techniques, not even those from the Body Sect). Most Title Douluo powerhouses are only strong because they are tough and thick-skinned, rather than truly tapping into their physical potential.

Just look at Zhou Yi's training – it's incredibly rough. Weighted running, push-ups, physical conditioning – if you didn't know better, you'd probably think you'd traveled back to ancient times…

Pure martial arts geniuses like Li Yuchun next door have never existed in the Douluo Continent.

but……

Su Wen smacked his lips.

He might be an accident.

After all, being able to synchronize with the superior attributes of a soul beast is a bit absurd. Soul beasts' physical strength is already far superior to that of humans, and as their cultivation level increases, they leave humans far behind.

It's clear that when it comes to physical strength, he's absolutely unmatched among his peers.

He shook his head. Everything had to wait until the situation with the third soul beast was settled before he could think about the future.

I just don't know if I'll run into my favorite soul beast.

The crowd quickly dispersed, but before leaving, they all said goodbye to Su Wen and Xu. In the inner courtyard, a place teeming with monsters, only the strong were respected. Although Su Wen's strength was somewhat lacking, his talent and potential had already reached a level that made them all hesitate to approach.

"Su Wen!"

Ma Xiaotao grabbed Su Wen's ear and glared at him with a seductive look.

"Huh?" Su Wen pretended to be dumbfounded.

"Hmph! When we get back, use the Ultimate Ice to help me vent my anger! I want that little bitch to know that she only has the right to experience your Ultimate Ice, while I can use it every day! No sleeping tonight!" Ma Xiaotao suddenly narrowed her eyes and sneered.

"One night?!" Su Wen's eyes widened.

Staring at Ma Xiaotao's body, her figure was indeed stunning, like a delicate rosebud about to bloom, but he was only ten years old! Did he know how painful it was to just look at her and not be able to move? Especially since this girl liked to hug him while sleeping... His throat bobbed, and he looked utterly hopeless.

Let me die.

……

The next day.

Su Wen's face turned somewhat pale.

He stood shakily in the line.

He was completely drained throughout the night, with not a drop of soul power left. Ma Xiaotao, on the other hand, was radiant and lively, pulling Su Wen around everywhere.

"Xiao Tao!"

Yan Shaozhe glared at her, annoyed.

With a tense expression, he checked Su Wen's physical condition and, seeing that he was alright and his soul power was recovering rapidly, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm fine, Dean Yan."

Su Wen's lips twitched.

Because Ma Xiaotao beside him had an arrogant look on her face, and her expression clearly meant...

You were wrong, yet you still dared to do it.

Moreover, suppressing the evil fire with ultimate ice is also very beneficial to him. Both his soul power and his control over ultimate ice are rapidly improved. And this feeling of being in both ice and fire... is really exhilarating.

Compared to that, the soul power that can be recovered so quickly is nothing.

"..."

Yan Shaozhe remained silent.

"Alright, whatever you two do, just watch yourselves!"

They then went to check the number of people on the list.

Su Wen yawned and looked around.

I don't know many of them.

Zhang Lexuan had only recently advanced to the Soul Douluo level, yet her strength had already reached the pinnacle of the Inner Academy. She could retire at any time to take on the position of Inner Academy teacher, while Zhang Yi and the others were still struggling to complete their Inner Academy graduation missions, chasing after evil Soul Masters all over the world.

But why not go to the Sun and Moon Empire?
Su Wen thought maliciously.

That's the lair of evil spirit masters, surely they wouldn't dare, hehe.

However, whenever he thought of evil spirit masters, he thought of Ma Xiaotao.

This Holy Maiden of the Holy Spirit Cult possesses a martial spirit that can be described as capable of turning a person into a god or demon in an instant. She will inevitably be targeted by the Holy Spirit Cult after the tournament ends two years from now…

Although this woman enjoys exploiting him, is big-breasted but brainless, has a terrible temper, and is rather foolish, but...

"Xiao Wen, are you secretly criticizing me?" Ma Xiaotao narrowed her long, beautiful eyes and stared dangerously at Su Wen.

"Cough cough, how could that be?"

Su Wen coughed awkwardly twice.

His gaze drifted into the distance, gradually calming, but he would still do his best to ensure her safety and well-being.

"Okay, let's go!"

The roll call is over.

Yan Shaozhe waved his hand.

Compared to Elder Xuan, who was used to slacking off and using the excuse of "training you" to hide in the back, whether he was going to sleep or sneaking a delicious meal, Yan Shaozhe led the team all the way without ever being "trained" in any way. Even if there was any "training," it was always within his sight, and he would never leave the sight of the others.

The team consists of thirteen people.

There were also some outer court disciples, but most of them were not famous (not mentioned in the original work), so Su Wen didn't pay much attention to them and focused on finding his third soul beast.
