Douluo V: Starting with daily check-ins, I'm trying to trick Xiao Wu into becoming my wife.

After listening to Zhao Wuji's words, Dai Mubai immediately turned around, his gaze sweeping over Ao Yin, Tang San, and the others, and introduced them with a solemn expression.

"Teacher Zhao is known as the Immovable King, and his martial soul is the Mighty Vajra Bear, a top-tier offensive beast martial soul."

"If you want to hold out for the duration of an incense stick's burning, don't confront him head-on!"

"Only by working together as a team can we have a chance to pass!"

No sooner had the words left her lips than a sweet, coquettish hum rang out.

Xiao Wu tilted her head back, her eyes full of dissatisfaction, and didn't take those words to heart at all.

"So what if we go head-to-head? There are five of us!"

"Brother Ao is a genuine three-ring Soul Master!"

"It's just a stick of incense. I think we could easily take down Teacher Zhao!"

Xiao Wu was naive and confident, thinking that with the strength of these monsters, a five-on-one fight would be a piece of cake.

In stark contrast, Tang San calmly looked at Dai Mubai and asked in a serious tone.

"Senior Mu Bai, what is Teacher Zhao's cultivation level? Is he a Soul Emperor like the teacher at the gate?"

"Not the Soul Emperor."

Dai Mubai shook his head slightly, his tone calm, yet carrying a hint of heaviness.

Xiao Wu instantly breathed a sigh of relief, patted her flat chest, and smiled triumphantly.

"Then it's secure!"

"If it's not a Soul Emperor, we can definitely clear the level, and maybe even teach him a lesson!"

Xiao Wu was overjoyed and filled with happiness.

But the next second, Dai Mubai's words extinguished everyone's confidence.

"Teacher Zhao is a level 76 offensive Soul Saint."

boom!

These few words, like a thunderclap, resounded in everyone's ears.

Tang San's pupils shrank sharply, his face filled with disbelief.

Xiao Wu's smile froze instantly, her mouth slightly agape, completely dumbfounded.

Even Ning Rongrong, who was usually calm and quiet, was shocked and her expression instantly became serious.

Zhu Zhuqing, who had been silent and aloof throughout, suddenly changed her narrow eyes.

Her usually cool and aloof expression turned serious, and her slender body tensed slightly.

Soul Saint!

That's a top-tier expert far surpassing the Soul Emperor!

The highest level among the five of them is no more than level 30, yet they have to fight against a Soul Saint?

Do we have to force ourselves to last for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn?

This is hardly an assessment!

This is clearly an impossible trial!

Unless Zhao Wuji deliberately held back throughout, the five of them working together would struggle to last even half an incense stick's time, let alone a whole incense stick's time!

A deathly silence instantly enveloped the entire room; the breathing of the few people became slightly labored, and their hearts were filled with pressure.

Just as everyone was trembling and feeling fearful.

A figure slowly stepped out of the crowd.

It's Ao Yin!

He remained calm and composed, showing no sign of panic, and waved his hand.

Om-!

Ice and fire shattered, and the Panlong Staff slammed heavily into the ground, its shaft trembling incessantly!

At the same time, three soul rings appeared beneath his feet: two pale white and one yellow, but their colors suddenly changed.

Three jet-black, ten-thousand-year-old soul rings rose from beneath Ao Yin's feet, layer upon layer, encircling his entire body.

The black spirit ring shimmered with an eerie light, and the boundless and violent spirit power swept in all directions like a tidal wave, fiercely impacting the minds of everyone present.

Tang San suddenly opened his eyes wide, his body stiffened, and his breath caught in his throat.

A ten-thousand-year-old soul ring!?

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

His teacher had told him that there is a limit to how a Soul Master can absorb Soul Rings, and it is difficult for ordinary people to break through this limit. It is almost impossible for all of them to be ten-thousand-year Soul Rings!

All three were ancient black rings, which completely overturned his understanding of the world of Soul Masters!

Xiao Wu covered her mouth, her big eyes wide with amazement.

Brother Ao is too strong! Three pitch-black ten-thousand-year soul rings, just looking at them makes people's hearts race!

Ning Rongrong's delicate body trembled slightly. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had extraordinary knowledge and experience. There was nothing impossible in this world, but she had never seen such a terrifying young man before.

At such a young age, he already possesses three ten-thousand-year soul rings beneath his feet. His foundation is such that it would be difficult to find a match among the younger generation across the entire continent!

Zhu Zhuqing's narrow eyes narrowed sharply, and a turbulent wave surged in her usually calm heart.

She gazed silently at the three thick black soul rings, her eyes fixed on Ao Yin's tall and straight figure, and the strange feelings in her heart grew stronger.

Dai Mubai, standing to the side, felt his hair stand on end, his throat bobbing as he subconsciously swallowed.

He had thought he had overestimated Ao Yin's strength, but now he realized that the opponent still harbored terrifying trump cards. Three ten-thousand-year soul rings—this configuration was simply outrageous!

Zhao Wuji, who was not far away, instantly lost his nonchalant expression. His rugged face became extremely solemn, and his gaze was fixed on the black soul ring under Ao Yin's feet.

As a level 76 Soul Saint, he knew better than anyone how difficult it was to obtain a ten-thousand-year Soul Ring.

A young Soul Master possessing three ten-thousand-year Soul Rings—such a thing is unheard of!

The entire testing area was completely silent, and all eyes were fixed on Ao Yin, who stood proudly.

Three ten-thousand-year soul rings rose and fell slowly, a dark halo enveloping the boy's body, and an unparalleled sense of oppression slowly spread out.

Ao Yin said calmly, "The four of you make the first move. Hold out for as long as you can."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ao Yin gripped the dragon staff tightly with one hand and slowly pulled it out of the ground.

The staff, brimming with swirling energy and chillingly hot, pointed directly at Zhao Wuji, who was resting with his eyes closed to the side. "The rest of the time, I alone will suffice!"

The moment the words were spoken, the entire room fell silent.

Tang San's pupils twitched slightly. "Mad!"

This Ao Yin is too arrogant.

However, seeing the three ancient black rings beneath his feet, one can see that he has the right to be arrogant.

Ning Rongrong stared blankly at the boy in front of her.

Ao Yin is too dazzling!

She had always been proud and competitive, but for the first time, she willingly admitted defeat.

Zhu Zhuqing, standing to the side, felt her once calm and serene heart now ripple with waves of emotion.

She had always been indifferent to the youths of the world, having seen too many impetuous and arrogant ones. Her clear eyes narrowed slightly as she quietly gazed at the boy's tall and straight back.

Ao Yin, what kind of person are you?

It's truly unfathomable. I only wish that you were completely different from those shallow people of the world.

After a brief moment of shock, everyone quickly came to their senses.

Tang San composed himself and took the initiative to speak, "Let's discuss our tactics!"

The four nodded slightly. They didn't have Ao Yin's strength and had to prepare for battle. They exchanged a few words.

Just then, Zhao Wuji, who had been quietly resting with his eyes closed, suddenly raised the corner of his mouth.

A playful smile crept onto his rugged face.

His eyes suddenly snapped open!

Two beams of light shot out, their powerful aura instantly locking onto the entire arena.

He looked at Ao Yin, who exuded an aura of superiority and confidence, and spoke in a deep voice.

"Little ones, have you finished discussing?"

"It seems you're very confident in your abilities."

Ao Yin's expression remained unchanged as he responded calmly.

"Confidence is a part of strength."

"Teacher Zhao is well worth a try."

"However, I'll play with my teammates first, and then I'd like to have a serious match with Teacher Zhao in the remaining time."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Wuji couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle, then walked step by step toward the group.

His steps were heavy, and each step caused the ground to tremble slightly.

"Heh, you've got quite a few clever tricks up your sleeve."

"You want your companions to deplete my soul power first, and then you can reap the benefits?"

"Young man, you're far too naive!"

"A fool's dream!"

boom--!

As soon as those four words were uttered, the world changed drastically!

The terrifying soul power hidden within Zhao Wuji's body erupted wildly without reservation. The boundless soul power surged into the sky, whipping up a gale and sending sand and stones flying!
