She's Faking an Injury!!

"Teacher Zhao, there's no need to question this Poison... ahem, Dragon Girl. Her grandfather is Dugu Bo—the Poison Douluo!"

Before Dugu Yan could speak, Ning Rongrong spoke first from the side.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had once invited Dugu Bo to join them, but he had refused.

Yet for some reason, Dugu Bo had ultimately joined the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan!

Only a handful of people knew about this.

Ning Fengzhi and the others were among them.

Ning Rongrong had originally intended to call her Poison Girl, since Dugu Yan's poison was incredibly potent!

But after seeing Dugu Yan's gaze, she immediately backed down.

If Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, or Bone Douluo had been here, she would not have backed down so easily!

But she had no choice! With no elders around, this Big Sister Dugu Yan had no Martial Morality. Her heart was as cold as stone, and she really would strike!

Other than that Yu Tiankong, Dugu Yan had never been good-tempered toward anyone...

Zhao Wuji shuddered. Though he did not know much about the Poison Douluo's deeds or reputation...

That was still a Titled Douluo!

His mind went numb.

There was someone from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect on one side, and the granddaughter of a Titled Douluo on the other...

"Ahem, are you ready?"

Zhao Wuji glanced at the incense stick that had already burned out and spoke to them.

Better change the subject directly. A Titled Douluo was not someone just anyone could discuss!

Especially in broad daylight.

Zhao Wuji might be rough, but he was not stupid!

He knew perfectly well who he could offend and who he could not. Otherwise, he would never have lived this long.

"We're ready!"

Tang San and the others answered.

When Zhao Wuji took out a fresh stick of incense, Kong and Dugu Yan had already retreated roughly a hundred meters.

This was the minimum safe distance.

Keeping a safe distance from Soul Masters who were fighting—or about to fight—was the Righteous Path.

Soul skills had no eyes; that was no empty saying.

"Alright, the test officially begins!"

"Martial Soul Possession!"

"Blue Silver Grass!"

"Seven Treasures Turn, Glazed Tile Appears!"

Tang San stood at the rear, with Ning Rongrong at his side.

Xiao Wu was at the very front, while Zhu Zhuqing took the right flank.

As part of the assessment, Zhao Wuji would also teach them a lesson: target the backline!

Deal with the support-type Soul Master first!

Separated from them by around ten meters, Zhao Wuji leaped from the spot and pounced toward Ning Rongrong.

Ning Rongrong was merely a support-type Soul Grandmaster. How could she possibly evade Zhao Wuji's attack?

At the critical moment, Tang San's Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul bound Ning Rongrong and yanked her away, barely allowing her to avoid Zhao Wuji's attack.

At that very moment, Tang San's first soul ring flashed.

"First Soul Skill: Blue Silver Entanglement!"

In an instant, Zhao Wuji, who was right in front of him, was wrapped up by Tang San's Blue Silver Grass like a rice dumpling.

Tang San also widened the distance between himself and Zhao Wuji, but he did not remain idle.

"Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, now!"

Kong: "Pikachu, I choose you?"

You fucking ran off and let the two girls go up instead?

Then when the girls get hurt, you get angry?

If he had not witnessed it himself, Kong truly found it hard to imagine what kind of protagonist Tang San was.

"Seven Treasures Have Renown: First, Strength!"

"Seven Treasures Have Renown: Second, Speed!"

Just then, Ning Rongrong's Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda shone brilliantly, transforming into several streams of light that attached themselves to Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuqing.

The three of them had their strength and speed increased by thirty percent in an instant!

It gave all three of them the illusion that they had reached the Soul Elder level!

"What a powerful feeling!"

Tang San glanced at Ning Rongrong and could not help but exclaim.

"First Soul Skill: Hell Stab."

"Second Soul Skill: Netherworld Hundred Claws!"

Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu launched their attacks toward Zhao Wuji almost simultaneously, but Zhu Zhuqing was an Agility Attack Type Spirit Master after all, and was much faster than Xiao Wu.

"Clang... clang... clang... clang..."

A series of sounds like tiny iron tools striking an iron plate rang out. Zhu Zhuqing felt as though her claws were about to be worn flat, yet she still could not break through Zhao Wuji's defense!

Zhao Wuji stood with his arms folded, not resisting at all, but he was currently in his Martial Soul Possession state.

At that moment, Xiao Wu arrived.

"First Soul Skill, Waist Bow!"

The test was proceeding in full swing. Dugu Yan found it rather dull, but Kong was carefully observing Tang San.

After a while, Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing still failed to break through Zhao Wuji's defense. The Immovable Bright King truly lived up to his reputation—there were only mistaken names, never mistaken nicknames!

Just then, Zhao Wuji seemed to have lost interest in playing around. With a slight exertion of force, he instantly broke free of the Blue Silver Entanglement.

But Tang San had no intention of letting Zhao Wuji off. He immediately repeated his old trick, and his second soul ring flashed.

"Second Soul Skill: Parasitism!"

Zhao Wuji was once again bound up like a rice dumpling, but restraints of this level could be broken free from instantly if he wished.

"Very good. This is getting a little interesting."

After breaking free of the Blue Silver Entanglement again, Zhao Wuji's lips curled slightly as he spoke casually.

Just then, Zhao Wuji froze slightly. He did not quite understand what was going on with this girl named Xiao Wu.

Not until her second soul ring flashed.

"Second Soul Skill: Charm!"

Zhao Wuji: "..."

Did this little girl have no brain? She was using a spiritual attack like Charm against a Soul Saint?

She was only a Soul Grandmaster!

But Xiao Wu could not really be blamed. Even now, she had yet to adapt to the fact that she had already taken human form. If she were still a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, Zhao Wuji definitely would not have been able to withstand that spiritual attack.

But after choosing to take human form, aside from being able to condense her first seven soul rings herself, she was truly no different from an ordinary human. Her spiritual power and the like had to "grow" all over again as well.

Zhao Wuji merely paused for a moment and did not even resist. Xiao Wu was instantly struck by the backlash of her own Soul Power, spat out a mouthful of blood, and fainted.

Kong, Dugu Yan, Zhao Wuji: "..."

Was she trying to scam him?!

Soul Power erupted from Zhao Wuji's side, sending Zhu Zhuqing, who had been "scratching" at him, flying backward. By sheer coincidence, she was headed straight toward Kong and Dugu Yan.

The two exchanged a glance.

"Are you catching her?"

"I'm not. Are you?"

"Me neither!"

Besides, they were standing quite far away. Though she was headed in their direction, Zhu Zhuqing was at least sixty meters from where they stood!

"Bang..."

The little kitten, Zhu Zhuqing, landed on the ground and spat out blood as well. One of her arms had even been dislocated.

Yet she said nothing, merely staring toward Zhao Wuji.

Dai Mubai had been watching Kong and Dugu Yan the whole time, so he had no idea what had happened to Zhu Zhuqing. When he saw her sent flying, he cast Zhao Wuji a resentful glance.

He wanted to run over to Zhu Zhuqing, but after thinking it over, Dai Mubai ultimately remained where he was...
