Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul, the Dragon Abyss Sword, has become its scabbard.

Chapter 16 The Great Soul Arena

Ding Quan put down the enrollment information in his hand.

Shrek Academy currently only has Ma Hongjun, Flander's disciple, and Oscar, a genius with innate full soul power.

Dai Mubai joined Shrek Academy this year. Although his exact soul power level is unknown, it is definitely above level 25.

Reaching level 25 or above by the age of twelve is definitely the mark of a top genius, and Shrek Academy generally only admits students who reach this level.

Considering the graduation requirements, someone with that kind of talent could break through to the Soul Master level before the age of twenty, as long as they didn't slack off, it was practically a given.

The period from twelve to twenty years old is the best time for cultivation, and it's the stage where cultivation improves the fastest. If someone with this kind of talent hasn't become a Soul Master in eight years, they must be out of their mind.

This can be achieved by studying at any advanced college.

And there won't be such a high rate of damage.

Shrek is only an academy that recruits monsters, not an academy that trains monsters. A few years later, among the Shrek Seven Devils, except Tang San, none of the others showed the strength to crush their peers.

Tang San's strength has little to do with Shrek Academy; Shrek Academy didn't teach Tang San anything useful.

Ding Quan abandoned his idea of ​​going to Shrek Academy to watch and began to cultivate.

There are only three years left before Tang San arrives. I haven't broken through level 15 yet, but reaching level 20 before Tang San goes to Shrek Academy shouldn't be a problem.

Finding a suitable fire elemental spirit beast will take a considerable amount of time.

The two sisters, Wei Ling and Wei Ling, were increasing their soul power faster than he was, which meant that their innate soul power was much higher than his.

Moreover, Ling's second soul ring requires a soul ring from a thousand-year-old ice silkworm. Does he have to go to the frozen forest?

Or should we just find someone to help us hunt the soul and bring the Thousand-Year Ice Silkworm directly to us? But that would require a lot of gold soul coins.

But as long as the money is in place, there will definitely be many soul hunting teams willing to go to the Frozen Forest.

In that case, Ding Quan glanced at the large Soul Arena not far away, realizing he would need to stay there for quite some time.

Once you have Gold Soul Coins, you can buy Whale Glue again, which also helps to improve your cultivation speed, although its effect is becoming smaller and smaller.

Watching the two Wei sisters fighting in the courtyard, if they fought together, the speed at which they could obtain gold soul coins would not be slow.

And are these two practicing in the wrong direction?

Wei'er used wind and thunder attributes for ranged attacks, while Ling used an ice sword created by his soul skill to rush towards Wei'er for close combat. It was impossible to tell what kind of martial souls the two originally possessed.

More than half a year later.

A two-person spirit battle is being held on a spirit battle platform in the Soto City Grand Arena.

The two women on the stage had well-proportioned figures. One had smooth golden hair cascading down her back, while the other had silver hair tied in a high ponytail. Each of them had a bright yellow spirit ring at their feet.

One person held a longsword made of exquisite ice, exuding a chilling aura. Another person was surrounded by a gentle breeze, with arcs of electricity flashing around them.

The opponents were two burly men, both with yellow spirit rings, who were now looking at them warily, wondering if their spirit rings were too dark.

The two men were too imposing; under the gaze of these two women, one felt powerless to resist.

The two people in front of him were very powerful. These two burly men who had just arrived in Soto City had received information from the Great Fighting Soul Arena.

The Lingwei duo rose to fame in the Soto City Grand Arena.

The two of them are incredibly powerful and have never been defeated since joining the fighting spirit.

In this Soul Battle, almost no one could force them to use their Soul Skills, and neither of them had used their Soul Rings much.

Having won more than twenty consecutive matches, his Battle Spirit level has directly reached the Silver Battle Spirit level.

If it weren't for the fact that this Great Soul Arena doesn't have that many Silver Soul level One-Ring Soul Master combinations, and that many Silver Soul level One-Ring Soul Masters wouldn't participate in Soul Battles if they saw them there.

These two must be at least at the Gold level in terms of Battle Spirit.

"Ling Wei!"

"Crush them!"

The stands were packed with spectators, and shouts echoed throughout the arena, reaching even the central arena where team battles were taking place amidst the lively atmosphere.

Logically speaking, a battle between a one-ring Soul Master like this shouldn't have many spectators, but there are quite a few people here.

This is simply because their duel is so rare.

"The battle begins!" On the battle stage, the referee and host gave the order.

Ling charged directly at the two with his sword.

Electric arcs surged around Vera's body, and under the influence of her soul power, a bolt of lightning shot directly towards her two burly opponents in an instant.

The speed of lightning is unimaginable!

"First Soul..." The two burly men watched as the lightning struck, and were hit before they could even unleash their soul skills.

Although the long-range lightning was not fatal, it did have a paralyzing effect. The soul skill that was about to be released was interrupted instantly, and the soul skill backfired.

Ling rushed directly in front of them and kicked the two opponents, who were nearly two heads taller than her, off the fighting platform.

*2

The sound of the two landing instantly ignited the entire stands.

"Another fleeting yet incredibly swift battle! Congratulations to the Lingwei duo for achieving a 26-game winning streak in the doubles battle!"

"The Lingwei Duo!"

"I couldn't even withstand one move! Damn it!"

"**,you**!"

……

"Wow, Boss Dai, what kind of skills do they have?!" A chubby guy with orange-red hair stared wide-eyed at the two people on the stage who defeated their opponents in one move.

"They're just first-ring Soul Masters." Dai Mubai wondered if he had seen these two people before.

Although he was somewhat surprised by the strength of the two, as a prince of the Star Luo Empire, he possessed the top-tier martial soul, the White Tiger.

Confident that even at the first-ring Soul Master level, one could defeat these weak first-ring Soul Masters in a single encounter.

The stats of a top-tier martial soul are overwhelming to such a weak martial soul; even the strongest aspect of a weak martial soul cannot compare to the weakest attribute of a top-tier martial soul.

"Hehe, that's true!" Ma Hongjun hasn't obtained his second spirit ring yet, but he can break through at any time. He can defeat some spirit masters with weak spirits in one move.

Although his martial soul resembles a fat pheasant, it is a top-tier martial soul, the Fire Phoenix, even with its side effects.

Its terrifying flames have extremely strong adhesion, greatly suppressing Soul Masters with low-quality Martial Souls.

"Mu Bai, don't get carried away just because you've won two games!" A middle-aged man with a long, narrow face adjusted his glasses.

He squinted at the two on the fighting stage, his heart filled with shock.

These two are far more capable than they appear to be.

He glanced at the two spirit rings, which were similar in color to his own second spirit ring, and muttered to himself.

Something seems off about this spirit ring.

Is my good brother's theory wrong? Or is the spirit beast that produced these two spirit rings extraordinary?

My good brother's theory can't be wrong; he's a renowned master in the world of Soul Master theory.

That is the spirit ring produced by absorbing top-level spirit beasts; its quality is very high, and its color is also deep.

The soul skills associated with such soul rings are very powerful, which may be the reason why they are so strong.

The two of them are a bit underdeveloped. Although their ages are unknown, their physiques suggest they are over twelve years old and have not yet reached level twenty.

Such talent is not enough to become a student of Shrek Academy. Although these two are very strong among their peers, talent still matters in the later stages of training.

Without talent, it's difficult to achieve anything, which is why Shrek Academy only admits gifted students.

After seeing the two on the Soul Arena leave, Flander took Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai to participate in the Soul Arena, hoping to earn some Gold Soul Coins.

Because of the whale collagen they took, Ling Wei and her companion developed very quickly and were much taller than other children their age.

It's understandable that Flander couldn't accurately estimate the ages of the two men.

Ding Quan stood on the high platform to the side, glanced at the iconic face and Dai Mubai and the red-haired fat man beside him, and then looked away.

Flander, as a Soul Saint, has very keen senses.

But did Ma Hongjun also arrive at the Great Soul Arena at this time?

The group arrived here, and it seemed that Dai Mubai was now at level twenty-nine.

Ding Quan remembered that he participated in the Soul Battle when he was level 29, and then he won all the way.

After breaking through to Soul Master, he suffered a series of defeats, and his points all went into negative numbers. On the contrary, Ma Hongjun, who had a lower Soul Power level, had a better record.

"Quan, let's go!" Ling Wei and the other person walked over. The two had already gone to collect their rewards from the Soul Battle and the money they won from betting.

"Wait a minute, there's someone whose Soul Battle I'd like to see." Since Dai Mubai is here to battle Soul Battle, Ding Quan wants to see how he and Ma Hongjun compare.

The latest novel is first published here!

"Oh? Whose Soul Battle?" Wei'er was a little surprised, as Ding Quan wasn't interested in many Soul Battles.

"Let me place a bet first." Ding Quan remembered that Dai Mubai seemed to have won several times in a row before finally breaking through level 30.

In other words, he had never lost before level 30, but if that's the case, then breaking through level 30 will be a matter of just a few days.

Two years later, he reached level 37, the same level he first appeared in the original work. After absorbing a spirit ring, he became level 31. It was normal for him to advance six levels in two years, given his talent.

Ding Quan, having placed his bet, arrived at the viewing platform for Dai Mubai's battle spirit, where his opponent was also a level 29 wolf spirit master.

The two have now exchanged blows.

"First Soul Skill: White Tiger Protective Shield!"

Dai Mubai activated his first soul skill and engaged the wolf soul master in battle. Even when the wolf soul master used his second soul skill, he was unable to break through Dai Mubai's soul skill.

"Huh? We seem to have seen this person before." Vera looked at his blond hair and heterochromatic eyes, and realized she had seen someone like this before.

"We saw him when we first came to Soto City." Ling glanced at Ding Quan, who seemed to have noticed him back then.

"It's him? The strength of a top-tier martial soul is really high!" Wei'er remembered, then looked at Dai Mubai's White Tiger martial soul, whose strength was much higher than her own.

He also felt that his martial spirit was being suppressed, and he had to concentrate his mind to dispel the feeling.

"Hmm, as expected of a top-tier martial soul." It can suppress the opponent with just its first soul skill, leaving the opponent helpless.

"Second Soul Skill: White Tiger Blazing Light Wave!"

Dai Mubai unleashed his second soul skill, a ball of light gathering in his mouth and shooting directly at the wolf soul master.

The wolf spirit master, unable to dodge in time, was blasted off the fighting arena.

"Light attribute? Or is it a skill like this? But its power is a bit, well, weak." Ling was somewhat surprised to see Dai Mubai release this soul skill, that the White Tiger Martial Soul could obtain such a skill.

The White Tiger Martial Soul is extremely powerful. Light attribute is a very strong attribute; it can be gentle when divided and explosive when gathered. This skill deals considerable damage.

However, this soul skill is too ordinary; given the power of the White Tiger Martial Soul, it shouldn't only have this much power.

"This person is a member of the Star Luo Empire's royal family and has a martial soul fusion skill with the Zhu family's Netherworld Cat. The Netherworld Cat is of the dark attribute," Ding Quan explained.

Over the course of more than a year, Ding Quan told the two of them a lot about the world of Soul Masters.

Most people have some understanding of the well-known forces on the mainland.

"Is that so?" Ling looked at the damage caused by Dai Mubai's second soul skill. It was stronger than the second soul skill of an ordinary Great Soul Master, but not by much.

It's far inferior to Wei'er's soul skills, falling short of the level of the top-tier martial soul, the White Tiger.

However, it's understandable if it's for the stable inheritance of the Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

"Also, why are the Star Luo Empire's royal family here in the Heaven Dou Empire?" Wei'er pouted when she saw that the other party had actually released two soul skills.

"I've told you about the Star Luo royal family's succession system, and what they do if they can't beat the other princes."

"Running away? I see. So he's a prince in distress."

"Now that you've seen it, you can go back first. The Soul Hunters brought me a message, and I need to go check it out."

"good!"

We've already seen Dai Mubai's strength; it's passable, not too bad, but not particularly impressive either.

Arriving at the settlement counter, Ding Quan collected the gold soul coins he had won from his bets. After estimating his money, he went to a courtyard on the outskirts of the city.

"Young man, you've arrived!" A bearded man opened the courtyard gate, his face beaming with joy.

"Uncle Leng, judging from your appearance, you brought back what I asked for?" Ding Quan said as he walked into the courtyard. There were quite a few Soul Masters in the courtyard, who were Uncle Leng's teammates.

"Haha, thankfully the brothers helped, we didn't fail in our mission! Come with me." Uncle Leng led Ding Quan into the house, where there was a huge freezer.

"What is this?" Ding Quan looked at the huge cocoon in the freezer, which was emitting a cold aura and had a strong spiritual fluctuation coming from it.

"Young man, we searched for the Ice Silkworm for half a year without success. We even hired a local Soul Master. But luckily, we finally found a cocoon formed from a thousand-year-old Ice Silkworm." Uncle Leng said with some sigh.

"A cocoon formed from a thousand-year-old ice silkworm!" Ding Quan looked at the enormous cocoon, though silkworms seemed to be like this.

"We had someone examine it, and it turns out that the cocoon was formed by an ice silkworm, and it's about two thousand years old, which meets your requirements."

"Two thousand years, that's acceptable!" Ding Quan nodded.

"Well then, young man, what do you think..." Uncle Leng rubbed his hands together.

"Don't worry, Uncle Leng, I won't go back on my word." Ding Quan took out a few black cards and handed them directly to Uncle Leng.

"This seems a bit too much." Uncle Leng looked at the black cards. These were Gold Soul Coin cards, each containing 10,000 Gold Soul Coins, and were valid throughout the entire continent.

"Uncle, the extra gold coins are for your help. Please keep this matter to yourselves!" Ding Quan took out a storage bag and put the freezer inside.

"I understand!" Uncle Leng nodded, seeing Ding Quan's serious gaze.

"Brother, this guy has a very strong presence and is quite sharp," a companion said to Uncle Leng after Ding Quan left.

"Hmm, I heard he won more than thirty consecutive matches in the Great Soul Arena. Such a person must be very powerful, so let's not cause any trouble."

"What my elder brother says is true."

"And with this money, we don't need to hunt souls anymore. I'm planning to go back, get married, and start a family. What about you guys?"

……

Ding Quan returned to his residence with the storage bag. The Soul Hunting Team he had hired was already planning to go home. This commission and the gold soul coins he had given them were their last job.

Ice silkworms have the ability to mimic, making them difficult to detect. However, seeing that cocoon was quite lucky, as it was over two thousand years old.

In this way, Ling has obtained his second spirit ring.

Although two thousand years is a very long time, the Ice Silkworm is too weak, and its soul ring is not even as difficult to absorb as an ordinary soul ring that has just entered a thousand years.

Once you acquire the simulation skill and its camouflage effect to hide yourself, the soul beasts in Sunset Forest will have a hard time detecting you, and hunting souls will be much safer.

It can sneak up on the target soul beast and launch a surprise attack.
