Douluo Continent: Martial Soul - Azure Phosphorous Serpent, Second Master Dugu Bo

"Heavenly Battle Arena!"

Looking at the giant oval-shaped building that stood 300 meters tall and covered an area of ​​over 1,000 acres, Dugu Yang felt a sense of awe.

This is the iconic building of Heaven Dou City, the Heaven Dou Grand Soul Arena, which is divided into five main Soul Arenas and sixty-eight sub-Soul Arenas. It can accommodate 100,000 spectators at the same time.

Dugu Yang wanted to find a suitable opponent to test his current strength, so Dugu Bo brought him here directly.

Although it wasn't what Dugu Yang had expected, he could indeed find suitable opponents here, and more than one at that.

"Xiao Yang, would you like to participate in the Soul Battle in the Gambling Zone, the Soul Battle in the Death Zone, or the Beast Battle Zone?"

Dugu Bo walked up to Dugu Yang, accompanied by a slightly overweight man who was rubbing his hands together with a fawning expression.

The man's name was Situ Nan, and he was the manager of the Heaven Dou Great Soul Arena.

Upon learning that Dugu Bo's grand-nephew was coming to participate in the Soul Battle, Situ Nan immediately rushed over to serve him.

The so-called "game zone" and "life-or-death zone" refer to the standards for making a move.

The game zone is for friendly competition, where death is prohibited, while the life-or-death zone has no restrictions; the loser is either seriously injured or killed.

As for the final beast fighting area, it's where Soul Masters and Soul Beasts engage in fierce battles.

However, all soul beasts are captured at great expense by the Heaven Dou Great Soul Arena, and soul masters are strictly prohibited from killing them. If a soul beast dies by accident, compensation must be paid.

After thinking for a moment, Dugu Yang said:

"The Gambling Zone"

He was just there to find some suitable opponents to test his rapidly increasing strength; there was no need for him to participate in the life-or-death zone.

Dugu Bo nodded slightly, then said to Situ Nan beside him:

"First, arrange for a Soul Master with rich combat experience and a Soul Power level of 27 or 28."

"No problem, I'll arrange it right away. How about we schedule the young master's battle in the 13th point battle arena?"

Situ Nan looked like a sycophant.

Generally, newcomers to the Soul Arena need to register, fill out forms, and go through a series of procedures before waiting for an opponent to be assigned to them.

It's nothing like Dugu Yang, who gets assigned the opponent he wants as soon as he walks in, with the Arena Manager personally serving him.

There was nothing they could do; after all, his second grandfather was the Guardian Douluo of the Heaven Dou Empire.

"Can."

Dugu Yang nodded.

"Xiaoyang, put this on."

Dugu Bo took out a fox mask from his soul tool.

Although Dugu Yang is a level 28 Great Soul Master, he is only 8 years old this year.

Dugu Bo did not want him to be exposed to the public eye right now.

Dugu Yang had no doubts and put the fox mask on his face to cover his still somewhat childish appearance.

"Manager Situ, keep all information about my grandson confidential. If I hear any leaks of my grandson's information, don't blame me for coming after you."

Dugu Bo turned to look at Situ Nan, his eyes fixed on the latter.

Situ Nan felt as if he were being stared at by a venomous snake, cold sweat beading on his forehead. He forced a smile and said:

"Your Majesty is too kind. The Heaven Dou Great Soul Arena has always been committed to protecting the privacy of its clients, especially your grandson, the Poisonous One."

"That's good, go ahead and make the arrangements."

"Understood, Young Master Dugu, please follow me."

After making a "please" gesture, Situ Nan walked towards the Soul Arena first.

"Xiao Yang, I'll be watching from the sidelines, so you absolutely mustn't embarrass me."

Dugu Bo let out a soft laugh.

No, it won't.

Dugu Yang said confidently.

Although he won't display all his abilities in the upcoming battle, such as the Weakness Domain and Dragon Transformation, he is still confident in defeating opponents of the same level.

……

With Situ Nan, the manager of the Soul Arena, present, Dugu Yang didn't waste any extra time and was arranged to participate in the battle after making preparations.

The Thirteenth Fighting Zone, although it is only a fighting zone, still occupies a considerable area. In addition to the arena with a diameter of thirty meters, the surrounding area is filled with spectator seats, enough to accommodate a thousand spectators to watch the battle together.

However, the popularity of the secondary battle zone was definitely not as high as that of the main battle zone, with only half of the seats available, and Dugu Bo was also sitting in one of them.

Soon after the previous battle ended, a beautiful woman with a graceful figure, dressed in a cheongsam, walked onto the stage, her clear voice resounding throughout the arena.

"Next up are two Great Soul Masters: Dugu, a level 28 Power Attack-type Battle Great Soul Master with the Martial Soul Azure Phosphorous Flood Dragon, who is also participating in his first Soul Battle; and his opponent, Wang Hao, a level 28 Power Attack-type Great Soul Master with the Martial Soul Black Bear, who has participated in thirty-two Soul Battles with a record of twenty wins, nine losses, and three draws!"

"Let's welcome our two Soul Masters to the stage!"

As the beautiful host's voice faded, Dugu Yang and a burly man with scarred faces and a fierce appearance appeared on stage at the same time.

Clearly, he is Dugu Yang's opponent this time, Wang Hao.

"Wang Hao! Wang Hao! Wang Hao!"

The audience cheered loudly, clearly showing that Wang Hao's impressive record of 20 wins, 9 losses, and 3 draws was earned little by little.

"Hehe, masked kid, I didn't expect you to be so unlucky, running into me on your first Soul Battle. But don't worry, I'll go easy on you later."

Seeing Dugu Yang's slender figure across from him, Wang Hao, who admired strength and muscle mass, looked disdainful and didn't take him seriously at all.

Not only him, but even the audience below the stage did not think that Dugu Yang could win.

It wasn't just because of Dugu Yang's physique; more importantly, it was Dugu Yang's first time participating in the Soul Battle, and his combat experience was certainly not as rich as Wang Hao's, a veteran Soul Master who had been through countless battles.

"Stop with the nonsense and let's get started."

Dugu Yang didn't have time to argue with this guy, so he beckoned with his finger, signaling Wang Hao to attack.

Wang Hao was taken aback, not expecting Dugu Yang to dare provoke him. A surge of anger rose within him, and he said fiercely:

"You're asking for it! Today I'll show you what Grandpa Bear is capable of!"

Roar!

A thunderous roar resounded, and Wang Hao's already broad body grew even larger, instantly tearing his loose shirt open to reveal terrifying granite-like muscles. His hands grew several times larger, growing thick fleshy pads and sharp nails.

Martial Soul Black Bear, Possession!

At the same time, two yellow soul rings slowly appeared beneath Wang Hao's feet.

Despite being a player in the Great Soul Arena, Wang Hao actually possesses two hundred-year-old soul rings.

Seeing this, Dugu Yang also released his martial spirit.

As an eerie emerald light shone from between his brows, Dugu Yang's muscles began to bulge and build up.

However, unlike Wang Hao's on the other side, it was not huge, but very well-proportioned, with a strong sense of line, which was both beautiful and contained terrifying explosive power.

His entire right arm had transformed into a dragon, covered in turquoise scales, and his hand had turned into a dragon claw, instantly attracting the attention of everyone present.
