Chapter 23: She Provokes, I Get the Beating?
Dugu Yan pulled Kong over to sit down on a nearby sofa, naturally leaning her head on Kong's shoulder.
Kong: "..."
Dai Mubai and Tang San began by showing off their martial arts, with Dai Mubai quickly finding himself outmatched.
After all, Tang San was born into the Tang Sect and possessed the unique skills of the sect. Without using any soul abilities and merely relying on martial arts, few of his peers or even those slightly more advanced in cultivation could stand against him.
Kong lost interest after watching for a moment.
Over the past few years, he had been practicing mainly in the back mountains of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, either getting struck by lightning or studying martial arts in the Heart of Purity with Lady Belzebub.
He focused primarily on the use of the naginata, occasionally sparring with Lady Belzebub, the Raiden Shogun. Naturally, he ended up taking quite a beating...
With only a short period of martial arts training, how could he possibly match the Raiden Shogun?
Dugu Yan also found the ongoing "farce" uninteresting. At eighteen years old and already at level fifty-three, she viewed Dai Mubai and Tang San's fight as child's play.
After assimilating the Golden Dragon Gourd, Dugu Yan's martial spirit also evolved, but it was not as strong as Dugu Bo's.
Hers was a weakened version of the "Jade Phospher Serpent," but her talent had greatly improved.
According to Dugu Bo's theory, Dugu Yan's Jade Phospher Serpent martial spirit would likely evolve again once her soul power reached the level of a Soul Saint or a Titled Douluo, transforming into the Jade Phospher Serpent Emperor!
Dugu Bo's original martial spirit was the Jade Phospher Serpent, which evolved into the Jade Phospher Serpent Emperor when he reached the level of a Titled Douluo. After assimilating the Golden Dragon Gourd, it evolved again into the Jade Phospher Dragon Emperor—of course, a title he gave himself!
At that moment, Dai Mubai said to Tang San, "Tang San, I acknowledge that you have the strength to fight me, but let's stop the martial arts here!"
After saying this, Dai Mubai's first soul ring lit up.
"First Soul Ability: White Tiger Barrier!"
Tang San was not one to sit and wait for defeat. His teacher, Yu Xiaogang, had told him that control-type soul masters are the most powerful in single combat!
Without hesitation, his first soul ring lit up, and he immediately used his most proud soul ability!
"First Soul Ability: Blue Silver Bind!"
Tang San's Blue Silver Grass surged wildly, quickly binding Dai Mubai into a bundle.
It must be said, the tenacity of this Blue Silver Grass was truly impressive.
Dai Mubai, a thirty-seven level Soul Honor, was bound solidly for two whole seconds before he could break free!
"I didn't expect you to be quite skilled. If this is all you've got, then this victory will be mine, Dai Mubai!"
"Second Soul Ability: White Tiger Bright Wave!"
Dai Mubai activated his second soul ability, his hundred-year soul skill, and a golden light burst forth from his mouth.
It was his only long-range attack, quite powerful.
Of course, it was just a spar, and Dai Mubai was not going all out. Tang San might become his junior, after all!
"Second Soul Ability: Parasite!"
"When did this happen?"
Dai Mubai was momentarily stunned, finding himself bound up again!
The White Tiger Bright Wave also went astray...
Seeing this, Tang San felt somewhat smug. How could he not be proud? Even as a Soul Honor, his Blue Silver Grass was considered an ordinary, even worthless, martial spirit. Now, it had grown so powerful that he could compete with a Soul Honor. How could he not be proud?
Remember, Blue Silver Grass is recognized as a weak martial spirit!
To compete and even win against top-tier martial spirits with a so-called weak one truly ignited his spirit!
In the end, Tang Hao told Tang San that his was not a worthless martial spirit, but the Blue Silver Emperor...
There is no such thing as an underdog story; it's all destiny.
With a loud "bang," Dai Mubai broke free from the Blue Silver Grass, and his third soul ring lit up.
"Tang San, if I were only a Soul Grandmaster, you would have won this sparring match."
"But as a Soul Honor, my thousand-year soul skill greatly enhances my attributes for half an hour, making it impossible for you to win."
"This match, you've won since I used my third soul ability. It's not a victory to be proud of..."
Kong shook his head as he watched everything unfold.
Perhaps it was because Tang San and Dai Mubai were of like minds, or perhaps it was fate that had scripted this scene.
When Dai Mubai first initiated the challenge, he wasn't so "gracious!"
After all, he firmly believed in the saying that only mediocrities are afraid to stir trouble.
"Aiyo, this boring Soul Fight is over. Boss, one room!"
Seeing that Tang San and Dai Mubai had stopped fighting, Dugu Yan pulled Kong to the front desk and spoke for herself.
Tang San: "???"
Dai Mubai: "???"
Everyone: "???"
The crowd looked at Dugu Yan and Kong, puzzled.
This was a clash between a Soul Grandmaster and a Soul Honor, what was this beauty talking about?
She had been sitting there with this blond-haired young man without moving, initially seeming too scared to act.
Upon closer reflection, something seemed off.
"Hey, what do you mean by calling this a boring Soul Fight?"
"Also, there are no rooms left, the last one is for me and Little San!"
Xiao Wu stood with one hand on her hip, pointing at Dugu Yan and shouting.
Originally, fighting over a room was annoying enough, and now here was another one competing for a room!
It would be strange if Xiao Wu didn't lose her temper!
Dai Mubai, who had been planning to leave the Rose Hotel with the twin sisters, now seemed in no hurry.
He felt there was a good show to watch!
"Little sister, it's very rude to point at others like that!"
Dugu Yan smiled and continued, "Besides, weren't those two just playing house? It's exactly like fighting with a three-year-old."
Dai Mubai: The drama's on my own head now!
Goodness, he, a dignified Soul Honor, was being told his battle was like playing house!
This woman looked older than him; could she be a master?
After a brief thought, Dai Mubai shook his head. He knew almost every well-known "master" in Soto City.
There was no one like her.
Tang San was also a bit angry, his performance being dismissed as child's play!
This woman was courting death!
"What's wrong with pointing at you! You snatch a room and we can't even talk about it?"
As Xiao Wu finished speaking, Dai Mubai chimed in, "Beauty, I, Dai Mubai, am quite a figure in Soto City. Aren't you afraid that your blond-haired companion might get beaten up with such provocative words?"
Kong: "..."
Wait, what are you implying?
Kong's mouth twitched. Dai Mubai was quite something!
Getting beaten up, huh?
