"The battle is over… Mu Yang, we are still far from being true powerhouses," Shui Bing'er said telepathically to Mu Yang, sighing with emotion.
Although the two of them, while wearing their battle armor and unleashing their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, could easily defeat most soul masters below Title Douluo, they were still far behind powerhouses like Tang Hao, Tang Xiao, Golden Lion, Qianjun, and Jiangmo. They couldn't even withstand a single strike from their ninth soul skills.
Shaking his head, Mu Yang replied, "Bing'er, don't underestimate yourself. Even the youngest among them, Tang Hao, has been cultivating for over fifty years to reach his current level. But how many years have we been cultivating?"
"When we've cultivated for as long as they have, forget about needing the Martial Soul Fusion Skill—just you alone, Bing'er, will be able to suppress all of them."
Suppress all of them? That was an understatement. If she could ascend to godhood, then unless another deity intervened, even if the entire soul master world united, they wouldn't stand a chance against her.
After all, true God-Kings could shatter stars—not just Douluo Planet, but actual celestial bodies like stars in space.
Even if she wasn't a God-King but merely a First-Class Deity, as long as she reached the proper level, she could still easily destroy an entire continent.
Whether Gods and God-Kings would save the world was another matter, but wiping it out would be effortless.
"That's true!"
Shui Bing'er nodded, then hesitated before asking curiously, "Why do the people of the Clear Sky Clan always seem to fall for transformed soul beasts?"
Earlier, Golden Lion Douluo had revealed that Clear Sky Douluo's wife was a transformed soul beast, the Blue Silver Emperor. His son, Tang San, was also in a relationship with Xiao Wu, another transformed soul beast.
"Pfft—"
Hearing this, Mu Yang nearly burst into laughter.
But she wasn't wrong. Ever since Tang Hao set the precedent, marrying transformed soul beasts had practically become a Clear Sky Clan tradition. If you looked at future generations in the original work, it was almost as if the Tang family had monopolized all the female transformed soul beasts in the Douluo Continent.
"Well… Bing'er, once soul beasts take human form, aside from their ability to produce soul rings and soul bones in the early stages, they're no different from human soul masters. We shouldn't discriminate."
"Mmm, you have a point. If Golden Lion Douluo from Spirit Hall hadn't exposed it, I wouldn't have realized that Xiao Wu from Shrek Academy was actually a transformed soul beast."
Shui Bing'er nodded in agreement.
Half an hour later, after clearing away the large rocks that had fallen into the valley due to the battle's aftermath, the competing teams, escorted by the Royal Knights, resumed their journey.
Spirit Hall had dispatched five Title Douluo to capture Tang Hao, the soul master traitor who colluded with transformed soul beasts. But with the unexpected arrival of Tang Xiao, their plan had ended in failure. Although the incident was significant and had provided plenty of gossip for the competing academies, the Soul Master Tournament had to go on—there was no time for delay.
On the other side, after confirming they had safely escaped, Tang Hao and his group landed in a small forest.
"Big Brother, when did you arrive?"
Suppressing his emotions at reuniting with his brother, Tang Hao turned to Tang Xiao and asked.
"Hmph! If Yuehua hadn't informed me about what happened in Heaven Dou City, how were you planning to escape with Xiaosan today? How could you face Third Sister?"
Tang Xiao snorted coldly, reprimanding him without holding back.
Hearing this, Tang Hao opened his mouth but found himself unable to refute.
It was true—if his elder brother hadn't intervened today, he would have been doomed.
After all, who would have thought that simply smashing the Heaven Dou Spirit Hall would prompt Spirit Hall to send an even larger force than when he had killed Qian Xunji?
Most importantly, Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo had concealed their trump card—a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.
It was because he hadn't accounted for these two factors that his original plan had gone awry.
Likewise, Tang Hao hadn't expected Golden Lion Douluo, despite his rough appearance, to be so sharp-tongued. He had directly twisted his son Tang San's relationship with Xiao Wu, making it sound as if everything had been orchestrated and manipulated by him. What a blatant slander!
Heaven knew—Tang Hao had never interfered in this matter. Everything between Tang San and Xiao Wu had developed naturally over the years.
Maybe he had entertained similar thoughts in his heart, but Tang Hao swore that none of it had anything to do with Tang San. His son's love for Xiao Wu was absolutely genuine.
After a brief silence, Tang Hao changed the subject:
"Xiaosan, this is your uncle—his name is Tang Xiao, Title: Howling Sky."
"Nephew Tang San greets Uncle!"
Tang San bowed respectfully to Tang Xiao.
Tang Xiao had stepped in at a critical moment to save them, and this left Tang San with a great impression of this uncle he was meeting for the first time.
After his father, he now had an equally powerful uncle!
Tang Xiao didn't say anything at first. He merely patted Tang San on the shoulder, helping him up, then carefully examined him.
After a while, Tang Xiao silently gave him an evaluation in his heart—unremarkable.
Then, looking at Tang Hao with confusion, he asked, "What's going on with Xiaosan? It's one thing that he didn't inherit your Clear Sky Hammer, but why has even Third Sister's martial soul regressed into an ordinary Blue Silver Grass?"
Through his time observing from the shadows, Tang Xiao had already noticed that his nephew Tang San was highly talented and overall quite strong. However, in terms of martial soul, it was indeed as useless as ordinary Blue Silver Grass. Compared to A Yin's Blue Silver Emperor, it was far inferior.
And more importantly, his younger brother Tang Hao had been an incredibly handsome man in his youth, while Third Sister A Yin was a rare beauty. With such excellent genetics, why was his nephew Tang San's appearance so plain?
If Tang San hadn't awakened a Blue Silver Grass martial soul with extraordinary talent—something that ordinary Blue Silver Grass soul masters could never achieve—Tang Xiao might have even doubted whether his nephew was actually Tang Hao and A Yin's child or just someone his younger brother had picked up.
"I don't know either," Tang Hao replied. "But when it comes to martial souls, Xiaosan is definitely not weak. His future achievements will surpass mine, and he may even rival or exceed our grandfather."
"Oh? What makes you so sure?"
Seeing Tang Hao's unwavering confidence, Tang Xiao couldn't help but be surprised.
"Xiaosan has twin martial souls!"
"Twin martial souls?!"
Instantly, Tang Xiao's expression was filled with shock.
The world was different now. Ever since the discovery that Whale Glue could enhance a soul master's physique, the Heaven Dou Tournament preliminaries had seen the emergence of numerous geniuses with over-limit soul ring configurations. There were even multiple cases of ten-thousand-year fourth soul rings.
Because of this, more scholars were starting to recognize and accept an unverified yet plausible training method for twin martial soul soul masters—
Achieve Title Douluo with optimal soul ring configurations on the first martial soul, then attach nine high-age or even one-hundred-thousand-year soul rings to the second martial soul.
With such a path, the future of a twin martial soul soul master would be limitless
