Double Entanglement! Tang San Nearly Grits His Molars to Pieces

"Time's up. Everyone ready?"

Before long, Zhao Wuji returned after using the bathroom. By the looks of it, the group had gotten fairly familiar with one another.

"We're ready."

As they spoke, everyone had long since made their preparations, their faces full of anticipation.

They were facing a powerful Seven-Ring Soul Sage. Even if he suppressed his cultivation, he would still be the strongest opponent they had ever fought.

"All right."

"Martial Soul Possession."

Zhao Wuji lit a fresh stick of incense, then looked toward the group and let out a low shout.

Powerful Soul Power erupted within him. In a mere instant, his body abruptly grew taller, and earthy-yellow Vajra Bear fur covered him from head to toe.

At his feet, seven Soul Rings appeared: yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, and black, displaying the might of a Seven-Ring Soul Sage.

"I'll suppress my cultivation to the Soul Ancestor level at most, and I won't use any Soul Skills above the fifth-ring level. If you can hold out for the time it takes this incense to burn, you'll pass the assessment."

Zhao Wuji spoke frankly, his face full of the composure and confidence of an expert. Even as he spoke and smiled, his powerful presence swept over everyone present.

"A Seven-Ring Soul Sage is actually this terrifying!"

"If a Soul Sage is already this powerful, what about a Soul Douluo, or an even stronger Titled Douluo...?"

A flash of amazement crossed Tang San's eyes, and he felt a surge of envy. He still remembered that Tang Wulin's guardian was a Soul Douluo!

"Martial Soul Possession!"

Envious as he was, Tang San immediately released his Martial Soul, just like everyone else.

More than a dozen Soul Rings suddenly appeared, shining with dazzling light across the clearing.

"Seven treasures turn, glazed tiles appear. First: strength!"

"Second: speed!"

At the same time, the two Yellow Soul Rings beneath Ning Rongrong's feet shone brilliantly. Soul Power flowed from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda in her hand and gathered toward the others.

Those with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul always used their Soul Skills first. After all, its all-around enhancements could give any Soul Master stronger means of fighting.

"I feel..."

"I'm terrifyingly strong now!"

Tang San's eyes flashed. Feeling the power within him, he felt refreshed and invigorated. His strength and speed had both increased by 30 percent in an instant!

If his control had originally been enough to restrain a Soul Ancestor, then now he could control a Soul King!

"A rabbit, a cat, and even Blue Silver Grass..."

"Oh? There's even someone from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!"

Zhao Wuji's gaze fell on Ning Rongrong, who was being protected by the others, and a smile appeared on his face.

Then he looked deeply at Tang Wulin. After all, Mubai had asked him to pay special attention to this one... Wait!

"His Soul Rings are purple, purple, black, black!"

In that instant, his expression froze, and his small eyes filled with astonishment. But before he could hesitate, that figure had already moved.

A pair of golden Dragon Wings abruptly appeared, and the figure was before him almost instantly, a glittering golden Dragon Claw already lunging straight at him.

So fast!

"Second Soul Skill, Great Strength Vajra Palm—"

Zhao Wuji's expression hardened. Unwilling to be outdone, he thrust out a palm, and earthy-yellow light exploded in its center.

But the instant the golden Dragon Claw met the yellow palm imprint, the tremendous force made his scalp tingle. Zhao Wuji frowned deeply and only managed to avoid being knocked back by relying on his Soul Power.

"Impressive, kid!"

Zhao Wuji hurriedly put some distance between them, his amazement nearly spilling out of his eyes. His second Soul Skill was his primary means of dealing damage.

It could be used for both offense and defense. Back when he had two rings, he had even used it to fight a Three-Ring Soul Elder. Yet now, as a Soul Saint, he had fought a junior to a standstill!

"As expected of someone with a freakish Soul Ring configuration..."

"A Four-Ring Soul Ancestor!"

A trace of amazement filled Zhao Wuji's eyes. Even a genius couldn't have a Soul Ring configuration like this. This was a born king! As far as he could remember, only the Spirit Hall Holy Son had one.

"They say the Spirit Hall Holy Son was already a Soul Elder at ten. Only he has an almost deranged Soul Ring configuration. Could this one be...?"

Zhao Wuji immediately thought of something, and amid his shock, he subconsciously gritted his teeth. Dai! Mu! Bai!

I've never treated him badly. Are you trying to get me killed today?

He already had a grudge with Spirit Hall, but he was only wanted by them, that was all. If he dared beat up the Spirit Hall Holy Son, though, he could forget about seeing the sun for the rest of his life.

"That damned Dai Mubai! He nearly got me into terrible trouble!" Zhao Wuji's eyes filled with anger. Once he finished assessing these students, he would demand an explanation from him!

"First Soul Skill, Green Shadow Entanglement!"

"Second Soul Skill, Venomous Entanglement!"

Seeing that Zhao Wuji was distracted, Tang San's eyes lit up, and he instantly unleashed his two tremendously powerful Soul Skills!

In an instant, several strands of emerald-green Blue Silver Grass burst from the ground, darting out like green snakes with a pale green glow covering them. Catching him off guard, they restrained him instantly.

"I've got him under control. Tang Wulin, did you see that?"

"Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu, my control will only last a short while. Attack, quickly—"

Excitement shone in Tang San's eyes as he gave his orders.

Look at that! Controlling a Soul Saint as a Soul Grandmaster—who else could do that? He had known he was a genius!

"Third Soul Skill, Teleportation!"

"Second Soul Skill, Netherworld Hundred Claws!"

Although Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing were a little surprised, they didn't waste the chance to attack. They instantly unleashed their strongest Soul Skills and charged at him.

"That can hold him?"

Tang Wulin alone looked at the scene with an embarrassed expression, feeling utterly helpless. The grass would probably be burst apart before it could hold him for long.

"What kind of trash Blue Silver Grass is this?"

"You think this can control me?"

Sure enough, before the two girls could get close, Zhao Wuji, already in a fiery mood, looked at the Blue Silver Grass binding him and merely snorted. With a raise of his hand, he snapped it all apart.

Using Blue Silver Grass as a means of control was simply making a laughingstock of oneself. Why would he, a dignified Soul Saint, fear Blue Silver Entanglement?

"First Soul Skill, Immovable Bright King Body!"

Seeing the two Agility Attack System Soul Masters charging at him, he immediately sneered. Earthy-yellow power gathered around his entire body in an instant.

His Immovable Bright King Body not only provided defense, but could also reflect the attacks of others. Those two little girls were in for it.

"You..."

"Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, be careful."

Disappointment showed in Tang San's eyes, while Tang Wulin felt helpless as he looked at the two attacking Zhao Wuji. He wasn't worried about Xiao Wu, who had Teleportation, but what about Zhu Zhuqing...?

The impact of Zhao Wuji's Soul Power was no minor blow either.

"..."

As Xiao Wu used Teleportation to retreat, Zhu Zhuqing, who didn't make it in time, immediately frowned. Her Netherworld Claws had just struck toward him when she felt a powerful impact of Soul Power.

She was blasted away in an instant. But while she was still in the air, a strong, powerful hand firmly pulled him into an embrace.

"Mm... huh?"

Zhu Zhuqing cautiously looked up and immediately saw the young man's strikingly charming face. A blush involuntarily flashed across her cheeks.

"..."

At that moment, Tang Wulin flapped his Dragon Wings and flew in the air, looking at the girl in his arms. He politely refrained from holding her too tightly, but being so close to her made him a little embarrassed too.

[Congratulations to the host on successfully embracing Zhu Zhuqing]

[Host reward: 90,000-year Shadow Torso Bone]

[System evaluation: pursue her boldly and earn even richer, more varied rewards]

"Hm? A reward for an embrace..."

Hearing the voice resound in his mind, Tang Wulin was momentarily stunned. Then the system's evaluation left him feeling somewhat helpless.

"I didn't expect the system to have its own shameless moments."

He couldn't help chuckling softly. But now that he thought about it...

Wasn't Tang San's Blue Silver Entanglement apparently responsible for his successful embrace with her?

"I didn't expect Blue Silver Entanglement to be a little useful after all."

As Tang Wulin descended, he looked toward Tang San and couldn't help thinking this.

"I didn't expect Brother Tang to be so considerate..."

Watching the scene, Ning Rongrong wore a lovely smile and couldn't help murmuring aloud.

"Yes."

"I suppose that counts as a hero saving a beauty."

Xiao Wu's expression went blank for a moment, and she nodded as well, though she was lost in thought. If she hadn't used Teleportation just now, could Wulin have hugged her too...?

At that thought, her face turned red, and she hurriedly suppressed it. She couldn't think about such things; she was a pure and innocent Little Rabbit!

"No, wait..."

Tang San was nearly grinding his molars to pieces.

His Blue Silver Grass had failed to control Zhao Wuji and had been humiliated, only for Tang Wulin to end up playing the hero saving a beauty...

Tang Wulin, you really deserve to die!
