Douluo Continent: This Tang San is different

Chapter 510, Match 2: The Spirit Hall Team's Spirit Ring Configuration!

Amidst the miasma created by the evaporation of "urine," Dai Mubai, tears streaming down his face, shouted, "Xiao Ao, if you've got the guts, fight it out! Don't resort to these petty tricks!"

"Boss Dai, this is a soul skill, it's real combat, you can't expect a food-type character like me to fight a beast-type soul master like you, can you?" Oscar, as the user of the soul skill, was naturally immune to the miasma's toxins, but his complexion wasn't exactly good either—he was being suffocated by the stench of urine produced by his own soul skill.

He himself couldn't stand the smell.

In order to finish the battle quickly, Oscar used his third soul skill while Dai Mubai was weakened, spraying out white, viscous threads to bind him tightly.

Instantly, the foul smell of the water, the disgusting white silk threads, and the toxins they carried made Dai Mubai unable to bear it any longer, and he collapsed to the ground in resentment.

Before finally fainting, Dai Mubai secretly vowed that if he had the chance in the future, he would definitely find a way to cut off the other person's manhood!

This brotherhood—

No matter what!

On the other side, the situation for Ma Hongjun and the other six was not optimistic. They were being repeatedly defeated by the other members of the White Tiger Sect, and three of them had even lost their ability to fight.

Left with no other choice, Oscar joined in, using the agility granted by his Eight Spider Lances to quickly inject the mixed toxins of the human-faced spiders and other insects into their bodies, causing them to collapse one after another.

Poison is something that always makes people shudder.

In the end, Team Shrek emerged victorious in the first qualifier.

Immediately, the entire venue erupted in boos.

Flander, Zhao Wuji, and others from Shrek Academy were also a little embarrassed, but Oscar's victory was within the rules; at most, his soul skill was a bit underhanded.

Yu Xiaogang was quite frank, after all, people with extraordinary talent are always prone to criticism from the world.

For example, Yu Xiaogang himself is a theoretical master of martial spirit cultivation. He has such profound knowledge and extraordinary talent, yet he is misunderstood and suffers much criticism.

As his disciple, Oscar was simply someone the world could not understand.

Little did they know, the truth was in the hands of a minority!

As for Tang San and the others...

Yu Xiaogang has already automatically excluded them from the scope of comparison, and if a comparison really had to be made, Yu Xiaogang would be willing to guarantee with his own reputation that in terms of lethality and secrecy, Tang San is absolutely no match for Oscar's poison.

However, in the second match, among the participating teams was the Spirit Hall team, whose spirit ring configuration caused Yu Xiaogang's pupils to shrink sharply!

This is because all the members of the Spirit Hall in this group are at the first, second, or third ring level, or even the fourth or ten-thousand-year level!

The fourth ring of ten thousand years was revealed in the previous session, so it is not surprising that it appeared in the Spirit Hall this time. However, what Yu Xiaogang and the others could not understand was how this group of people managed to reach the thousand-year level with their first spirit ring.

Some people even know the members of the Spirit Hall team and know their previous spirit ring configurations: two yellow and one purple, or two yellow and two purple.

But now, they are all dressed in three purple and one black, or three purple and two black.

Could it be that Tang San has developed a method to discard spirit rings without side effects, allowing spirit masters to peel off the spirit rings they have already absorbed and then hunt spirit beasts again?

Um--

The idea is indeed very tempting, but it consumes too much of the soul beast's energy. Tang San will not study this "unsustainable" method, at least not at this stage.

Outsiders simply cannot imagine the concept of "increasing the age of a spirit ring," as it touches upon a blind spot in their knowledge.

"Xiao Gang, how did the Spirit Hall manage to do that?" Watching the Spirit Hall members release their spirit rings on the screen, displaying overwhelming power over other teams, Frande's tone darkened. "As it stands, if our team encounters the Spirit Hall team, we might not be able to get into the top three."

Oscar is good, but the Spirit Hall's personnel have terrifyingly powerful spirit ring configurations.

Yu Xiaogang did not answer, but carefully observed the effects of the Spirit Hall personnel's soul skills. He frowned slightly and said, "The power of their first two soul skills seems to be inconsistent with the thousand-year level... As it stands, it seems that the soul power consumption is less, and they can be released multiple times."

Flander had some understanding of the theory of spirit cultivation, and said, "The higher the age of the spirit ring, the stronger the effect of the spirit skill after absorption. However, the power of their spirit skills is not commensurate with the age of the spirit ring, but they can be released multiple times... This is really strange."

"Unless—" Yu Xiaogang's eyes gleamed, "their spirit rings weren't changed, but their age was increased!"

"That's right! That's the only possibility!"

"Back when I was in the Spirit Hall, I read through a miscellaneous article that was related to the legendary gods: accepting the gods' tests and passing them would earn you divine rewards, increasing the age of your spirit rings—the power of your spirit skills would remain the same, but the spirit power consumed when using them would be reduced... These people in the Spirit Hall team definitely increased the age of their spirit rings."

"This is a new theory I've come up with: the higher the age of a spirit ring, the greater the power of the spirit skill. However, once absorbed by a spirit master, further increases in the age of the spirit ring will not increase the power of the spirit skill; they will only reduce the spirit power consumption when using it!"

After quickly writing down this theory using paper and pen from his storage soul tool, Yu Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, then tensed up again: "The people in the Spirit Hall team have all increased the age of their soul rings. They must have undergone divine trials. The Spirit Hall has gods..."

At this point, Yu Xiaogang looked at Bibi Dong, who was sitting in the center of the VIP audience seats—

That is the successor of God!

[Just you wait, Bibi Dong, I will definitely train Oscar to become a god too! Even if he can't pass the god's test, he has the Eight Spider Lances that can evolve infinitely, constantly absorbing energy to strengthen his physical body and increase his soul power. He will definitely be able to break through his realm quickly and reach the legendary level 100!]

[Once he breaks through level 100! Even if Oscar's skills remain shady, the world will still idolize him and redefine "shady"!]

In the VIP stands, Xue Beng, curious about the Spirit Hall team's spirit ring colors, asked Bibi Dong, "Your Holiness, what's going on with the spirit ring configuration of the Spirit Hall team members? Has that configuration broken the optimal spirit ring ratio again?"

What is the optimal Soul Ring combination?

After Tang San's "The Evolution of the Best Soul Ring Configuration" came out, the value of this thing gradually disappeared, especially inside Wuhun City, where a Soul Master's Soul Ring age could be increased by hunting spirit beasts within the Spirit Beast Illusion Space.

"It's not a secret." Bibi Dong knew that the moment the Spirit Hall team revealed their spirit rings, countless people would want to investigate. Rather than hiding it, it was better to speak out openly.

After all, it doesn't matter if these people find out.

Without the permission granted by Tang San, one would never be able to enter the Spirit Beast Illusionary Realm.

When people from other empires want to enter the Spirit Beast Illusionary Realm, they will have to allow Tang San's Martial Soul to be planted within their empire's territory, thereby expanding the Blue Silver Network's reach.

As the Blue Silver Network expands, the Starry Sky World will also expand, and with more users, the amount of spiritual energy gained each day will increase... This is extremely beneficial to the development of the Spirit Hall.

As for the ultimate control over the Starry Sky World, the Blue Silver Network, and the Heavenly Dao, etc., it lies with Tang San... Bibi Dong is not worried that Tang San will betray the Spirit Hall.

The Spirit Hall's current development is largely due to Tang San's guidance in providing theoretical direction.

If Tang San knew that Bibi Dong was praising him like this in her heart, he would definitely feel embarrassed. After all, the Spirit Hall was able to develop to its current state because Bibi Dong was willing to listen to Tang San's advice and boldly experiment.

Perhaps at the beginning, Bibi Dong carried out Tang San's experimental suggestion with the intention of "destroying the Spirit Hall," only gradually changing her mind later...

However, it cannot be denied that the Spirit Hall can no longer do without Tang San!

"The Spirit Hall team's spirit ring configuration is mainly due to Tang San's development and utilization of his spirit..."
