Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Thunder Dragon, A Century of Glory

Chapter 1 Thunder Dragon's Crushing Fist (Comic Strip)

(Friendly reminder: This article is presented in a comic style. If any readers have difficulty understanding it, please refer to the comic. Thank you.)

A low rumble of thunder seemed to echo in the air.

"Thunder Dragon... Crushing Fist!" Yun Yibai's deep shout echoed within the Soul Arena. His first and second Soul Rings seemed to respond to their master's call, flashing with dazzling light. Powerful lightning energy coiled around his right fist as if it were alive, and golden lightning crackled and danced on his fist.

With a deafening roar, Yun Yibai's right fist struck his opponent's chest with the force of a thunderbolt. Yun Yibai's blow sent his opponent flying several meters into the air before crashing heavily to the ground, falling into a deathly silence.

"Victory! Lei Long has once again won the match with overwhelming force!" The commentator in the arena roared excitedly, his voice filled with awe for Yun Yibai's strength.

"Hahaha, I knew it! I made the right bet!" A spectator waved his hand excitedly, a smug smile on his face.

"Damn it, this Ghost even claims to be a level 29 Great Soul Master with a 30-game winning streak! He can't even beat a level 28 Great Soul Master, humph!" Another spectator who bet on the wrong thing cursed angrily, his face turning ashen.

"Heh, attribute counters, you can't even understand something as simple as that? No wonder you bet on the wrong thing!" A spectator who had just won sneered disdainfully, his eyes full of mockery.

"Damn it, what did you say? You want to fight?" The spectator who bet on the wrong thing was furious. He stood up abruptly, his eyes wide open.

"You brute!" His words were tough, but his actions betrayed him; he took a step back.

After the match, Yun Yibai slowly walked to the front desk of the Heaven Dou City Grand Arena. The receptionist immediately showed a respectful expression upon seeing him. "Respected Mr. Lei Long, the recipient of the Silver Soul Badge, this is yours."

She handed over a gold card with both hands, the card gleaming brightly in the sunlight.

Yun Yibai took the card and gently stroked it. It was a golden card, representing savings in Gold Soul Coins. Only customers with savings of 10,000 Gold Soul Coins were eligible to own such a gold card. And Yun Yibai, this boy who was not yet twelve years old, was already a wealthy man with savings of over 10,000 Gold Soul Coins.

"Level 28 against level 29, the odds are alright." Yun Yibai smiled faintly, a confident glint in his eyes. He was still quite concerned about the stakes.

"I didn't expect that after achieving a fourteen-game winning streak, the Grand Arena would start to blacklist me," Yun Yibai thought to himself.

However, he didn't want to care too much. After all, his winning streak was only recently maintained. Before that, he had both wins and losses in the Heaven Dou City Great Soul Arena. Of course, he had a better chance of winning, otherwise he wouldn't have obtained the Silver Soul Badge.

"I'd like to ask if you can purchase some goods here?" Yun Yibai turned to the receptionist, his voice quite magnetic.

She paused for a moment, then quickly regained her professional smile. "Distinguished sir, what goods do you require?"

"Sea Spirit Beast"

"Distinguished guest, this is Tiandou City. The distance between the East Sea coast and the West Sea coast is extremely far, let alone a sea spirit beast." Before Yun Yibai could finish speaking, she refused first.

"I haven't finished speaking yet." He glanced at her calmly.

"I'm sorry!" the maid apologized hastily. Although she was a staff member of the Heaven Dou City Great Soul Arena, she was just an ordinary person.

"What I need your help with is finding a special gelatinous substance found in the brains of whale-type soul beasts among the sea soul beasts!"

"Oh~, esteemed guest, you mean whale glue, right?" The maid looked as if she had just realized something.

"Huh? You know?" Yun Yibai asked with a hint of surprise.

"Distinguished guest, whale gelatin has always been available. It is a highly potent and masculine tonic with aphrodisiac properties. Moreover, it is especially popular among the upper class, and demand far exceeds supply."

"If you require, we can make an appointment for you, VIP."

"Thank you very much!"

After saying that, Yun Yibai was about to leave.

"Distinguished guest!" a maid called out to Yun Yibai.

She then looked at him, blushing slightly, and gently loosened the strap of her tank top. "If the esteemed guest requires it, I am willing."

The maid's behavior wasn't due to money, but simply because Yun Yibai was aesthetically pleasing.

"Tiger's back, wasp's waist, mantis's legs" is the best description of him.

"..." He knew that his purchase of whale glue would definitely be misunderstood.

However, Yun Yibai pretended not to see it. He took out a purple card containing one thousand gold soul coins. "This is a deposit. I'll leave it with you for now."

"Try your best to find me some whale glue that's thousands of years old. As for the reward, I'll pay you separately."

It's not that she was unmoved by temptation; she just had high standards.

Yun Yibai, strictly speaking, belongs to the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan, but he is not a direct descendant. His mother is a member of a collateral branch of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan. Although her martial soul is also Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus, her talent is not considered good, and she has only recently barely broken through to the Soul Master level. His mother works in a mid-level management position within the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan. Of course, compared to top-tier Soul Master families, his mother is indeed only passable.

His father was a high-level Soul Master with a Thunder Wolf Martial Soul of the Thunder Attribute. His talent was not much different from his mother's. He used to be a disciple of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan, but now he is a deacon of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan.

Their position was somewhat awkward. Some of the more talented disciples of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan had higher soul power than the two of them, and their positions were entirely due to connections. Even if she was only from a collateral branch, she was still a member of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, a direct disciple of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and someone who could carry on the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul.

When Yun Yibai's martial soul awakened, it was considered that he had partially inherited his mother's martial soul. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that it was the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, but it was indeed somewhat different.

Perhaps the strength of the martial soul on the maternal side is higher than that on the father's side. The martial soul is a pure dragon species, and the lightning is golden. As for the others, it is not very clear.

Yun Yibai was somewhat lucky. If his dragon bloodline hadn't awakened enough, his martial soul might not have been the mutant Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, but rather the "Thunder Wolf Dragon".

With innate soul power at level seven, he can be considered a genius, neither too great nor too small.

Above him are two top geniuses, the true direct descendants of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Yu Tianheng and Yu Tianxin, one with innate soul power at level nine and the other at level eight.

Yun Yibai is one year younger than Yu Tianheng, currently eleven years old, and a level twenty-eight Great Soul Master.

Although he enjoys decent treatment in the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan due to his considerable talent, he is still far inferior to Yu Tianheng and Yu Tianxin, the twin sons of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

In a rigid group like the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus, not being a direct descendant always falls short.

Yun Yibai's behavior from a young age was indeed very different from other Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex martial soul users. While his peers were playing, he was training; while they were resting, he was still training.

It was this unconventional behavior that made people at higher levels pay more attention to him and allocate more resources to him.

However, all of this vanished after Yun Yibai absorbed the first and second spirit rings.
