"Even if you didn't want to smell it, there was no need to react so violently, was there?"
Lu Yuan pointed at the dented table and put on a troubled expression.
"At the very least, the table was innocent, wasn't it?"
"So."
His tone shifted.
"It shouldn't be a problem if I avenge this innocent table, right?"
A faint Silver Light flickered at his fingertips.
Just looking at it made one's eyes sting.
Seeing a straight, slender finger thrusting toward him, Dai Mubai did not dare underestimate his opponent and roared.
"Martial Soul Possession!"
"White Tiger Vajra Transformation!"
"White Tiger Vajra Transformation can increase my attack, defense, and strength by one hundred percent. You can't hurt—"
Dai Mubai's arrogant words abruptly stopped.
The sharp pain at his neck made his already unpleasant expression turn even uglier.
Yet he could only stand there without moving.
Since the other party could pierce his defenses, he could also take his life at any moment.
If that finger advanced another inch, he would get to experience Reincarnation.
With his life hanging in the balance, Dai Mubai did not even dare move his body, let alone swallow carelessly.
If he had been the crown prince of the Star Luo Empire, he would have dared to threaten the other party without hesitation.
Unfortunately, he was not.
Dai Mubai could guess with his toes that if his brother heard he had been killed, he would definitely not come avenge him.
After all, his brother, Dai Weisi, had always wanted to make a move against him. He simply had not found a suitable opportunity yet.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Although that saying could not perfectly apply to every situation, in a certain sense, it was not wrong.
"This Young Master Dai is way too pathetic!"
Xiao Wu, who was watching from afar, slapped the wall hard beside her, nearly laughing herself sick.
He had been slapped in the face before he could even finish speaking.
After living for so many years, this was the first time she had seen something so amusing.
"No, that's not right."
"It isn't that this Young Master Dai is too pathetic."
Tang San refuted Xiao Wu with a grave expression. He pointed vaguely at Lu Yuan. "Look—even after this Young Master Dai released his Martial Soul and Soul Skill, the corner of his clothes has not moved in the slightest!"
"What does that prove?"
Xiao Wu tilted her head in confusion.
Tang San's face reddened at Xiao Wu's adorable head tilt. He turned away and said calmly:
"It proves that, in this state, he cannot be touched!"
"And by 'cannot be touched,' I do not merely mean fists. It even includes the aura released when a Soul Master uses Martial Soul Possession!"
"And judging from how he pierced Young Master Dai's defenses, not only can he attack proactively, but the power of his attacks is extremely high!"
"Otherwise, a Soul Elder's third Soul Skill would not have been rendered completely ineffective."
"You have to know that aside from defense-type Soul Masters who specialize in defense, most Soul Masters with Beast Martial Souls have strong bodies and exceptionally good defenses!"
This time, Xiao Wu understood. She said in astonishment, "Isn't that just cheating?!"
The Invincible Golden Body of their Soft Bone Rabbit clan was already cheating enough, yet it would still lose against such a bizarre Soul Skill.
He could absolutely evade an opponent's attacks, take the initiative to strike, and his attacks were incredibly powerful.
It could be said that this was the ceiling for an agility-attack type Soul Master.
Although the primary development path of agility-attack type Soul Masters was still speed and burst power, the fundamental reason for increasing speed was to evade enemy attacks, allowing them to easily infiltrate the opponent's formation and use explosive attacks to instantly kill the support-type Soul Masters or control-type Soul Masters in the enemy lineup.
Therefore, with a heaven-defying Soul Skill like Absolute Evasion, speed was no longer a necessary choice.
Unless one's speed was so fast that others could not react to it.
That was precisely why Xiao Wu could not suppress her astonishment.
"You can't call it cheating, because he hasn't even lit up his Soul Rings."
"To be more precise, he's simply too strong."
As he said this, Tang San could not help raising a hand to his forehead.
Everyone knew that the prerequisite for releasing a Soul Skill was possessing a Soul Ring, and when a Soul Skill was released, the Soul Ring would briefly glow.
Yet throughout the entire battle, let alone using a Soul Skill, this mysterious youth had not even lit up a Soul Ring!
There were two possibilities.
The first was a Self-Created Soul Skill.
The second was that his Martial Soul was of exceptionally high quality and his Soul Power Level was also extremely high, allowing him to simply crush his opponent with raw strength.
However, regardless of which possibility it was, Tang San had ample reason to suspect that this mysterious youth had not used his full strength at all.
And without using his full strength, this youth, who was about the same age as them, had forcibly suppressed a three-ringed Soul Elder until he did not even dare move.
It was simply terrifying!
But.
A gleam flashed through Tang San's eyes.
There was a saying that was quite right: versatility was mediocrity, while specialization was supremacy!
Yet this saying could be viewed in reverse as well: supremacy was specialization, while mediocrity was versatility!
Every Soul Skill and Martial Soul had its own unique shortcomings!
Mediocrity might not be powerful, but it was comprehensive.
Whether in the early or late stages, it was difficult to find an obvious way to counter it.
Its only shortcoming was that it was difficult to excel.
In other words, on the path of cultivation, those who followed the path of mediocrity would never reach that ultimate "one" at the very peak!
But anything taken to the extreme would surely have many weak points that could be exploited as breakthroughs!
Master one method, and all methods become clear.
One sword breaks ten thousand techniques.
There was nothing wrong with those sayings.
But before reaching the later stages, it was best to merely listen to them and never take them seriously.
After all, no novice who had just stepped onto the path of cultivation could possibly understand what that "master one method" truly was!
Even in the latter half of the path of cultivation, there were still many who could not achieve "one sword breaks ten thousand techniques."
So this move might look unsolvable, but it definitely had its own particular flaw!
And that flaw should not be small!
Was there a limit on how long it could be used?
Or could it not evade certain special elemental attacks?
Or did it consume an enormous amount of soul power to maintain?
Tang San pondered silently.
Dai Mubai's Adam's apple bobbed. His face was livid, and there was still a trace of defiance in his eyes.
"Put away your Martial Soul."
Lu Yuan spoke blandly.
It sounded like an instruction, but also like a compulsory order.
Though furious, Dai Mubai clearly had no right to refuse.
His life was in the other party's grasp. How could he dare resist?
Even if someone could avenge him in the future, his life was his own. Once it was gone, it was truly gone!
The three Soul Rings slowly vanished.
Dai Mubai reluctantly withdrew from his White Tiger Martial Soul Possession state as well.
Lu Yuan dispersed the protruding Silver Light from his fingertip, then pulled out a mithril Crossbow Bolt from somewhere and handed it to the manager, who was wiping cold sweat from his brow.
"I don't have any Gold Soul Coins on me for the moment. This crossbow bolt is made of mithril, so consider it compensation for the trouble I caused."
The rules of the Star Dou Great Forest were completely impractical in the human world.
After all, whether in the Star Luo Empire, the Heaven Dou Empire, or Spirit Hall, no one could do without something like Gold Soul Coins.
Eating cost money.
Buying clothes cost money.
Buying a house cost money.
Buying cultivation resources cost even more money.
In short, in the human world, money was not omnipotent, but being without money was absolutely impossible.
Of course, Silver Soul Coins and Copper Soul Coins were also accepted, but they were not as valuable as Gold Soul Coins.
For purchasing precious items such as soul bones and Soul Tools, Gold Soul Coins still circulated faster and were more convenient.
Otherwise, if those astronomical auction prices were converted into Copper Soul Coins, they would probably fill an entire Small City.
Fortunately, Lu Yuan had long understood this.
Taking advantage of a sudden opportunity, he had taken a vicious bite out of a certain filthy rich man.
And he had to thank a certain girl who had fallen from the sky and smashed his barbecue grill.
Fate was often this wondrous.
Lu Yuan could not help glancing at Zhu Zhuqing.
Zhu Zhuqing also caught the teasing look in Lu Yuan's eyes. She gave a soft snort, strode toward the hotel entrance on her long legs, pushed open the doors, and disappeared inside.
