Huh! I Broke Through!
And if Tang Feng wanted to see his limits, he would naturally have to go all out.
That would give Dugu Bo a chance to see Tang Feng's Martial Soul and Soul Rings.
At the thought, Dugu Bo couldn't help feeling fired up.
He wanted to see just what kind of Martial Soul a monstrous talent like Tang Feng possessed, and whether his Second Soul Ring really was a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring.
"Then I'm going to keep increasing my Soul Power. Tell me early if you can't take it."
Level forty-eight, level forty-nine...
As the level of Soul Power Dugu Bo released rose higher and higher, Tang Feng went from trembling slightly in the spring to swaying visibly. Every muscle in his body was taut, and he was clearly resisting immense Soul Power pressure.
Level fifty-four, level fifty-five.
Tang Feng had reached the limit of the Soul Power pressure he could withstand with physical strength alone. His right hand rose involuntarily, and the God Tree Martial Soul appeared once more before Dugu Bo's eyes.
Dugu Bo stared at the little green tree in Tang Feng's hand, his green head covered in question marks.
A tree?
What kind of joke is this? A Soul Master with a plant-type Martial Soul has such a strong body?
You wouldn't be making a fool of this old man, would you?
Does that make sense?
Could it be that this tree Martial Soul is of exceptionally high quality?
On par with the Six-Winged Angel of Spirit Hall's angel lineage?
That can't be, can it? It doesn't look like it.
Apart from glowing green, it's about the same as other plant-type Martial Souls, isn't it?
After the God Tree Martial Soul appeared, two Soul Rings, one yellow and one red, rose from Tang Feng's body.
The yellow one was nothing special, but the red Soul Ring was truly dazzling.
Its blood-red light shone into Dugu Bo's eyes. It was too damn dazzling.
Dugu Bo hurriedly squinted and turned his head away.
Although he had known in advance that Tang Feng's Second Soul Ring was a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring, seeing the blood-colored ring with his own eyes still left Dugu Bo shocked, baffled, and astonished.
It really is a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring!!!
Does this fucking make sense?
His First Soul Ring is a yellow hundred-year ring, and his second jumps straight to a red hundred-thousand-year ring!
Is there any justice left in the heavens~~~!?
It was inconceivable, unheard of.
After releasing his Martial Soul, Tang Feng decisively used his first Soul Skill: Sage Mode.
The God Tree merged into his body. Black shadow appeared at the corners of Tang Feng's eyes, and his pupils turned a brilliant gold.
The Soul Power pressure around him immediately diminished sharply. Tang Feng's body steadied once more, and his breathing became even.
Huh!?
Dugu Bo had witnessed the whole thing, and he was dumbfounded. Is this really a fucking plant-type Martial Soul?
Why is its Soul Skill geared toward enhancing the user? And why can a plant Martial Soul merge into the body?
Isn't that a fucking Beast Martial Soul ability?
In just a few minutes, the abilities Tang Feng displayed had blasted Dugu Bo's worldview to pieces.
Am I old? Or is the Soul Master World changing too fast?
"All right, let's stop here."
"What level was the Soul Power pressure you just released?"
Dugu Bo was still immersed in the shock Tang Feng had given him. Hearing Tang Feng's question, he stopped releasing Soul Power on instinct and said:
"Level fifty-five."
Level fifty-five was quite a bit higher than Tang Feng had expected.
As far as physical strength went, Tang Feng had confirmed that he was no weaker than an ordinary Soul King.
He could only say that Xiao Wu lived up to her name, as did the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring and hundred-thousand-year Soul Bone.
After satisfying Dugu Bo's curiosity, Tang Feng looked at the number of fishing attempts on the system interface. It was time for another ten-pull!
[Current fishing attempts available: 10]
"Huh!"
"I broke through!"
Before Tang Feng could start the draw, he heard Dugu Bo's delighted voice from the shore.
The level ninety-one bottleneck that had held Dugu Bo back for over a decade shattered completely at that moment.
Dugu Bo officially entered the ranks of level ninety-two.
"Tang Feng, do you still need my help with your cultivation?"
"If not, I'll go consolidate my realm." Dugu Bo could hardly wait to consolidate his realm and then show off to his precious granddaughter.
"Go ahead."
Paying Dugu Bo no further attention, Tang Feng sank to the bottom of the pool and used all ten fishing attempts he had saved up.
[Obtained: Nothing] ×2 [Obtained: Observation Haki (adapted)] [Obtained: Nothing] ×2 [Obtained: Armament Haki (adapted)] [Obtained: Conqueror's Haki (adapted)] [Obtained: Nothing] ×3
"The Three Types of Haki?"
"Not bad, especially Conqueror's Haki. With a little development, I'll have a wide-area AOE. Developed to its highest level, it can even directly affect physical matter. Come to think of it, it's similar to the Soul Power pressure high-level Soul Masters actively release, but with greater range and power."
"I definitely can't cultivate Haki by myself. Now that I have the ability to protect myself, and with Dugu Bo protecting me as well, perhaps it's time to start making a name for myself."
Tang Feng leaped out of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, got dressed, and flew toward Heaven Dou City.
Meanwhile, Dugu Bo had failed to find his precious granddaughter at Heaven Dou Royal Academy. After asking around, he learned that Yan Yan had gone to the Soul Fighting Arena with her teacher, Qin Ming.
Heaven Dou City's Great Soul Arena, VIP lounge area. VIP room five.
The spacious room was lavishly decorated. It had every kind of leisure and entertainment facility one could wish for.
Seven handsome boys and pretty girls, all around fourteen or fifteen, sat or lay on a leather sofa that was a good twenty meters long.
One of them, a young man with short blond hair, lay on the sofa watching the match on the arena floor through the crystal glass. Bored out of his mind, he suddenly said:
"Seriously, I'm dying of envy."
"If you're sour, drink more water. Who told you not to have a Titled Douluo for a grandpa?" said the rather lean young man beside him, who was dressed entirely in black and sat upright on the sofa sipping red wine.
"Oh, shut up." The blond-haired young man, Yu Feng, snapped back at Osler, then pulled a long face and said:
"Ah, Yanzi, you're already level thirty-one. How are the rest of us supposed to live?"
"We can't even have friendly team Soul Fights together anymore."
Just over ten days ago, they had all been ordinary Soul Grandmasters, with an average level of twenty-five.
Their captain, Yu Tianheng, who had the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul, had the highest Soul Power Level at only twenty-six. The lowest was Ye Lingling, a support-type Soul Master with the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul, whose Soul Power Level was twenty-three.
The difference between them had been just three levels.
But now, the captain's girlfriend, Dugu Yan, had eaten some unknown treasure and suddenly advanced six levels in six days, reaching level thirty-one.
Not only that, she also had a Soul Bone.
Her level and strength had instantly pulled far ahead of everyone else's.
We're all the same age, so why the hell are you so amazing?
The increase in her level meant the seven of them could no longer take part in team Soul Fights together. Otherwise, their opponents would wipe the floor with them.
That was because Soul Fighting rules matched opponents according to the rank of the Soul Master with the highest Soul Power Level.
Now they could only come here with their teacher every day to take part in individual and two-person Soul Fights.
"What? Not happy?"
"If you have time to complain, you'd be better off hurrying up and cultivating."
"Unlike our Tian Heng, who works so hard at his cultivation."
As Dugu Yan spoke, she couldn't help snuggling into Yu Tianheng's arms.
Yu Feng grumbled inwardly, Damn it, isn't the captain working so hard because of you? You've made him lose the initiative.
Now you can do whatever you want with him every day.
