After leaving the Hell Slaughter Arena, Mu Ge prepared to head back, no longer seeking out Nightingale for pleasure.
A momentary indulgence was good for both body and mind, but becoming addicted to it would be a problem.
Besides continuing Life Simulation to develop Soul Skills, Mu Ge also needed to cultivate and raise his Soul Power Level.
In a place like Slaughter City, although soul rings and soul skills could not be used, raising one's Soul Power Level could still increase one's strength.
Soul Power could strengthen the body, and maintaining a Martial Soul or Martial Soul Possession for long periods also consumed Soul Power.
The higher one's Soul Power Level, the longer one could last in battle.
This was especially true for Mu Ge, who needed even more Soul Power because using Self-Created Soul Skills also consumed it.
At the Hell Slaughter Arena, Mu Ge's Soul Power was depleted faster than everyone else's.
Others expended their Soul Power ten points at a time, while Mu Ge expended it a hundred points at a time.
"Hmm?"
Mu Ge had already left the Hell Slaughter Arena when his expression suddenly changed slightly on his way back.
Mu Ge sensed that someone was following him!
"Who is it?"
"Courting death!"
Mu Ge sneered inwardly before heading toward a more secluded area.
Of course, he would not pretend not to notice and simply avoid someone tailing him.
What was there to avoid? He only needed to lure them somewhere suitable and kill them.
That came from his confidence in his own strength. Mu Ge was confident he could kill the other party; at worst, he was confident he could escape.
"This move of mine feels a little familiar..."
"Isn't this exactly what Bibi Dong did that day?"
For some reason, Mu Ge found his own actions familiar. He quickly recalled that Bibi Dong had also been followed a few days ago, and she had dealt with it in the same way.
With that in mind, Mu Ge simply headed toward the place Bibi Dong had gone that day. That dead end was indeed quite suitable—secluded enough.
"Have I been discovered?"
Bibi Dong, following behind him, had originally been considering where to make her move when she saw Mu Ge heading somewhere remote.
Bibi Dong immediately realized that Mu Ge had discovered her tailing him.
"Humph!"
Bibi Dong snorted. One look at Mu Ge's actions told her exactly what he was planning, since she had done the same thing before.
"Still as arrogant as ever!"
Bibi Dong sneered inwardly and slowly followed after him.
Being discovered only meant she had lost the chance to launch a sneak attack. Even without one, she was still confident she could defeat Mu Ge, who had just finished participating in the Hell Slaughter Arena.
As she followed at an unhurried pace and discovered that the secluded spot Mu Ge had chosen was the very dead end she had selected that day, Bibi Dong's pretty face immediately turned icy.
Was he confident that he could counter-kill his stalker just as she had that day?
Bibi Dong was furious.
Without another thought, Bibi Dong directly entered the dead end.
"So it was you?"
After seeing Bibi Dong's figure, surprise first flashed across Mu Ge's face before it swiftly turned cold.
Mu Ge truly had not expected the person following him in secret to be Bibi Dong.
But thinking about Bibi Dong's personality, perhaps it was not all that surprising.
"Did you come to kill me?"
Mu Ge looked at Bibi Dong coldly and asked in an indifferent tone.
"Death Spider Emperor!"
Faced with Mu Ge's question, Bibi Dong did not answer. She merely summoned her Martial Soul and swiftly entered Martial Soul Possession.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
In her Martial Soul Possession state, eight purple spider lances appeared behind Bibi Dong like eight sickles, gleaming with a chilling light.
"Didn't you tell me to avoid entering the same Hell Slaughter Arena match as you?"
"Then let me see whether you have the ability to make me yield!"
Only then did Bibi Dong snort coldly. Her figure flashed, transforming into a purple afterimage as she attacked Mu Ge.
Bibi Dong did not say she had come to kill Mu Ge. She only said that she wanted to test his ability and see whether he was qualified to make her give way.
After all, if she openly declared that she had come to kill Mu Ge, the two of them would become outright enemies. Although she was confident in her own strength, she still feared the possibility of something going wrong.
So, she found an excuse to test Mu Ge's strength.
"Humph!"
Mu Ge snorted after hearing her words. He was not quite as angry after hearing Bibi Dong put it that way, but he did not fully believe her either.
Because Mu Ge knew that if he proved inferior to Bibi Dong, she would absolutely take the opportunity to kill him.
Boom—
Crackle! Crackle! Crackle!
Mu Ge immediately summoned his Martial Soul as well. After switching to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, he swiftly entered Martial Soul Possession.
"Moving Like Thunder!"
Mu Ge first used the footwork of Moving Like Thunder, evading Bibi Dong's attack.
Even if he used Thunder Fiend Guard, Mu Ge did not know whether it could withstand the spider lances of Bibi Dong's Death Spider Emperor, so he did not choose to take the blow head-on.
Whoosh—
Mu Ge's figure moved like thunder. As he swiftly avoided Bibi Dong's attack, he also quickly arrived at her side.
Boom—
Mu Ge then threw a punch without the slightest hesitation.
Screech—
However, while Mu Ge moved quickly, Bibi Dong's reactions were no slower. Two spider lances behind her stabbed toward Mu Ge like swift snakes striking with their tongues.
Bang!!!
Mu Ge's attack collided with Bibi Dong's spider lances in midair, and his punch was intercepted and blocked.
Screech! Screech! Screech!
At that moment, Bibi Dong's other spider lances had already attacked Mu Ge again. Each lance was like a dragon emerging from the water, carrying an unstoppable sharpness.
Faced with Bibi Dong's attack, Mu Ge frowned slightly. His figure flashed as he hurriedly dodged aside.
After retreating to one side, Mu Ge looked at Bibi Dong in her Death Spider Emperor Martial Soul Possession state and frowned faintly. Only now that he was truly facing her did Mu Ge realize how difficult Bibi Dong was to deal with.
With eight spider lances, Bibi Dong was equivalent to wielding eight weapons, and every spider lance moved as naturally as her own arm under her control.
Two fists could not fight four hands, much less eight legs.
Mu Ge discovered that if he only used the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Spirit, he truly would not find it easy to deal with Bibi Dong.
At the same time, Bibi Dong's heart sank slightly.
Because she had also realized that Mu Ge's speed made him very difficult to hit. The initiative in attacking lay with Mu Ge, and he could retreat at any time.
"What? Is this all the strength you have?"
"With that little strength, I think you're the one who needs to avoid entering the same Hell Slaughter Arena match as me!"
Bibi Dong raised her delicate, flawless face and stood proudly, looking at Mu Ge with contempt as she sneered.
"Then I'll show you my true strength!"
Hearing Bibi Dong's words, Mu Ge immediately snorted coldly.
Then Mu Ge stretched out his right hand and clenched the air domineeringly. The Martial Soul on his body instantly switched, becoming the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand.
