You Insolent Fools

"Turn into a shadow?" The few of them immediately sucked in a breath of cold air.

Able to become a shadow, kill invisibly, hide in the darkness, and deliver a fatal blow to an enemy—this Martial Soul was truly disgusting!

"That's right. I remember someone else on the continent possesses a similar Martial Soul. He is one of Spirit Hall's elders, Ghost Douluo Gui Mei. His Martial Soul is Gui Mei."

Zhao Wuji asked in surprise, "Grandmaster, are you saying this guy is Ghost Douluo's son?"

Grandmaster shook his head. "No, their Martial Souls are merely similar. Gui Mei, a Titled Douluo, is himself one of the living dead. That function has failed as well, so it's impossible for him to have children."

Flender narrowed his eyes. He had also heard of Gui Mei, but why was the shadow before them so similar? He had no idea whether Liu Yi would succeed this time.

Inside the Soul Arena.

Liu Yi sneered. Others could not sense it, but he could clearly tell that this man did not possess a Martial Soul similar to Gui Mei's.

Instead, his Martial Soul had mutated during awakening. In truth, he was an illusion-type Soul Master.

Everyone had been blinded by his illusion.

The host shouted, "Wow, I never expected our battle-hardened Black Ghost to be so terrifying! Let's look at the big screen!"

Black Ghost: Martial Soul Ghost Shadow Black Demon, Level 62 control-system Battle Soul Emperor, soul rings yellow, yellow, purple, purple, purple, black.

Liu Yi: Martial Soul Seven Kill Sword, Level 65 Power Attack System Battle Soul Emperor, soul rings yellow, purple, black, black, black, black.

After seeing this, everyone present froze. Was this something a human could achieve?

The host's body shook violently. His eyes were wide as he stared at the large screen in the distance, unable to believe it. Had the backstage staff made a mistake?

Black Ghost frowned slightly and said in a low voice, "How is this possible? Is that really your soul ring configuration?"

Liu Yi smiled faintly and stepped forward. He stood like an unshakable mountain as a berserk aura erupted directly from his body.

Under that aura, Black Ghost staggered back several meters, his eyes filled with shock.

"You'll know if you try."

"Insolent!" Black Ghost roared. This junior actually dared to be so arrogant.

How could he endure that?

"Announce the start already! I'm going to kill him!" Black Ghost glared furiously at the host in midair, his eyes brimming with killing intent.

The host trembled as he said, "Liu Yi versus Black Ghost, the ma... match... officially begins!"

The moment the host announced the start, Black Ghost vanished from where he stood in the blink of an eye, disappearing without a trace.

Liu Yi watched his surroundings warily. Illusion-type Soul Masters were the most terrifying kind. They could torment someone to death within an illusion without leaving behind any clues.

Grandmaster saw through it as well. "This Black Ghost is an illusion-type Soul Master with the extremely peculiar Ghost Shadow Black Demon Martial Soul. This time, Liu Yi may be in trouble."

Flender narrowed his eyes and unconsciously clenched his fists. It was clear how worried he was for Liu Yi's safety.

Inside the Soul Arena, Liu Yi held his longsword and surveyed his surroundings. Suddenly, icy killing intent struck from behind him. Liu Yi did not dare relax for even an instant and dodged to the side.

A black tentacle swept past Liu Yi and struck the ground before vanishing.

"Liu Yi, hehe~ Today, I'll make sure you die without a burial place. Sixth Soul Skill, Hell's Gate!"

At that moment, black mist suddenly engulfed the entire Soul Arena. Everyone froze. At this point, they could not see the battle between the two men at all, and anxiety appeared in their eyes.

"This is my Sixth Soul Skill. You'll be devoured by the black mist here. Then you'll learn the consequences of provoking me! Hahaha!"

"First Soul Skill, Break!"

Liu Yi immediately slashed at the black mist before him, but it had no effect.

"Interesting. You're not bad to have trained your illusion to this extent."

"But in the end, you still don't know who your opponent is!"

Within the black mist, Black Ghost said coldly, "What do you mean by that?"

"I noticed you the moment you entered the Soto Great Soul Arena. Now, no one can save you—not even those two Soul Saints. Just wait. My illusion will drain you dry of blood and essence! Hahaha!"

The corners of Liu Yi's lips lifted slightly as he took out a silver mask from his Soul Guidance Device.

This mask could not only conceal his identity, but it also contained a great deal of Spiritual Power and could break all illusions.

Sure enough, the instant he put on the mask, the surrounding illusion shattered without resistance, and Black Ghost was standing directly before Liu Yi.

Before Black Ghost could react, he slowly raised his right hand. A black longsword emerged from his palm, ready to deliver Liu Yi the final blow!

"Die!"

"Splat!"

In that instant of flashing blades and sword shadows, bone-chilling sword energy suddenly erupted. As Liu Yi swung the Seven Kill Sword in his hand, everything ended with a scream.

"Aah!"

Black Ghost was sent flying and crashed heavily onto the ground. A gash had been forcibly carved across his chest, and black blood flowed from the wound.

At the sight of the black blood, Liu Yi sneered. "There's a road to heaven, yet you refuse to take it. Hell's Gate has no entrance, yet you barged right in. Black blood... why haven't your kind been wiped out yet?"

Black Ghost struggled to climb to his feet. "Th... that's impossible. You... how could you break my Soul Skill?"

"Do you recognize this?" Liu Yi pointed at the silver mask on his face.

Black Ghost's pupils contracted. "That belongs to Morris. So you were behind what happened at the Blacksmith Shop that day!"

Liu Yi flicked the black blood from the Seven Kill Sword and slowly walked toward Black Ghost, saying coldly:

"That's right. But now, you'll be joining them!"

Black Ghost's eyes widened. Dragging his body, which was at the end of its strength, he ran toward the exit.

At that moment, the black mist around them also disappeared.

The crowd fell silent at the sight. Black Ghost was actually being chased by a newcomer? Was this really human?

Although Black Ghost was only priced at the Iron Soul Fighter level, several Soul Emperors had already died at his hands. No one expected him to end up in such a state today.

"I... I surrender! I surrender!"

Black Ghost no longer had any of his earlier arrogance as he shouted at the host. Life came only once, and he did not want to die yet.

But just as he finished speaking, a pale beam of light had already pierced through his chest.

"I... I... don't... want to..."

With a thud, Black Ghost collapsed to the ground. His entire body convulsed, but he soon stopped struggling. He was clearly dead.

Liu Yi removed his mask and turned to look at the stunned host.

"Now you can announce the end of the Soul Fight, right?"

"Huh?" The host hurriedly came to his senses and shouted to everyone, "I announce that in this Soul Fight, Liu Yi versus Black Ghost, Liu Yi is the winner!"
