Team Soul Duel

Before long, Lin Hanye led Liu Erlong, Shao Xin, and the others to register for a seven-person team soul duel.

While waiting in the Rest Area of the main Soul Duel Stage, Lin Hanye said to everyone:

"Since everyone is willing to team up with us for a team soul duel, I assume you all want to win and earn some money. According To the arena's rules, after more than five consecutive wins in team soul duels, each additional win earns one hundred Gold Soul Coins. After more than ten consecutive wins, that becomes two hundred Gold Soul Coins. Before five wins, though, each victory only earns fifty Gold Soul Coins. Even if we win, splitting that between us means none of us will get much. So, in order to secure victory, I hope everyone will follow my command from here on out."

Hearing This, Liu Erlong naturally agreed without hesitation. After exchanging glances for a while, the others also nodded in agreement.

They had joined because they had seen the formidable strength Lin Hanye displayed in the earlier one-on-one and two-on-two soul duels.

And this world revered the strong.

Naturally, they trusted Lin Hanye's words.

Lin Hanye said, "Alright, I'll make the arrangements now. Shao Xin, prepare some sugar beans for everyone in advance—Recovery Sugar Beans that can restore stamina, Soul Power, and injuries, as well as Detoxification Sugar Beans. Just in case."

Shao Xin nodded and stepped forward:

"Big Candy for Impotence."

"Little Candy for My Sister."

Two Yellow Soul Rings rose from beneath Shao Xin's feet. As he recited the Soul Incantations, one large and one small sugar bean were created.

Seeing the beans in Shao Xin's hands, Liu Erlong covered her chest and hid behind Lin Hanye with a look of utter disgust. The other four also flushed bright red, staring at Shao Xin with strange expressions. Shao Xin's Soul Incantations were simply far too lewd.

Under everyone's gaze, Shao Xin smiled awkwardly, unable to help feeling nervous and uneasy. In the past, people had often looked down on him because of his Soul Incantations, to the point that hardly anyone had been willing to eat the sugar beans he made.

But Lin Hanye's next action deeply moved Shao Xin.

Under Liu Erlong's stunned gaze and the admiring looks of Cai Kun and the other four, he took the large and small sugar beans from Shao Xin's hands, chewed them a few times, and swallowed them.

"They taste pretty good. With Shao Xin's Recovery Sugar Beans, I feel like I wouldn't get tired even after fighting for a day and a night. These Detoxification Sugar Beans are useful too. When hunting for Soul Rings in the wild in the future, they can greatly ensure our safety against poisonous creatures like Man-eating Devil Vines."

Beneath her mask, Liu Erlong's pretty face felt burning hot. Lin Hanye, how could you eat something so disgusting?

Cai Kun and the other four gave Lin Hanye a thumbs-up inwardly. Brother, you're really brave. You actually ate Big Candy for Impotence and Little Candy for My Sister right in front of your girlfriend.

Yes, in everyone else's eyes, Liu Erlong was Lin Hanye's girlfriend.

Anyone with eyes could tell that the way Liu Erlong looked at Lin Hanye, as well as how she treated him, was far from ordinary.

How could Lin Hanye not know what they were thinking? Smiling, he explained, "Sugar beans are sugar beans, and Soul Incantations are Soul Incantations. Shao Xin's incantations may not sound very pleasant, but the effects of his soul skills are real. We can't ignore their usefulness over such a tiny flaw that barely even counts as one, can we?"

"It would be one thing under normal circumstances, but once we step onto a battlefield in the future, these can save lives. When fighting enemy Soul Masters or Soul Beasts, would you give up your hope of survival over such a trivial bit of pride?"

Lin Hanye's simple words immediately changed everyone's opinion of Shao Xin.

Liu Erlong even stepped forward and held out her right hand. "Give me one Recovery Sugar Bean and one Detoxification Sugar Bean."

Shao Xin gave Lin Hanye a grateful look, then raised both hands and recited his Soul Incantations:

"Big Candy for Impotence."

"Little Candy for My Sister."

One large and one small sugar bean, each with a different flavor, appeared in Shao Xin's palms. He slowly handed them to Liu Erlong.

Liu Erlong took them and was about to put them into her mouth, wanting to prove herself in front of Lin Hanye.

"Just eat them when necessary. There's no need to waste a Food System Soul Master's Soul Power. This is also one of the required lessons for surviving in the wild."

Lin Hanye stopped her.

Liu Erlong nodded, taking Lin Hanye's words as absolute truth.

"Give me two as well."

"And me."

Since even Lin Hanye and Liu Erlong had personally tried them, the others had even less reason to hesitate.

Besides, Shao Xin's Soul Incantations were not especially off-putting to men, in a certain sense.

On the contrary, they would probably be quite popular in private. Those who understood, understood.

After that, Lin Hanye gave them a few more simple arrangements.

Before long, the soul duel began.

Soto Great Spirit Arena had matched them against nothing more than an ordinary Soul Grandmaster team.

It was only because this was the last team soul duel of the day that they had been assigned to the central main Soul Duel Stage.

On the Soul Duel Stage, Lin Hanye's side adopted a three-three-one formation.

Niu Cheng, Liu Erlong, and Cai Kun stood at the front. Lin Hanye stood in the middle, while two nameless cannon-fodder Soul Grandmasters stood on either side. Shao Xin stood at the rear.

Among the seven, aside from Liu Erlong, Shao Xin, and Lin Hanye, who concealed his Soul Rings, the other four all had one white and one yellow Soul Ring.

The opposing seven Soul Grandmasters Wasn't Much Better. Only four had two Yellow Soul Rings, while the other three had one white and one yellow.

"Team soul duel: Fire Dragon Team versus Beast Team. Begin!"

Fire Dragon Team was the name Liu Erlong had chosen for their team. Since the seven opponents all possessed Beast Martial Souls, they had named their own team Beast Team.

At the referee's command, both sides made their moves almost simultaneously.

"First Soul Skill—Tyrannosaurus Possession!"

"Second Soul Skill—Dragon Arm!"

On the Fire Dragon Team's side, thanks to their Food System Soul Master, they did not have to worry about excessive Soul Power consumption and could unleash their ultimate moves without restraint.

The battle-hungry Liu Erlong took the lead. Soul Power clung to her feet, and under the effects of her two soul skills, crimson flames rose around her body. Her arms became covered in a layer of fiery red scales, transforming into five-fingered dragon claws. Moving at a speed no less than that of an Agility Attack System Soul Master of the same rank, she charged at an Assault System Battle Soul Master on the opposing side who possessed the Battle Tiger Martial Soul.

"First Soul Skill—Mountain Cleaving!"

"First Soul Skill—Lay an Egg!"

At the Same Time, Niu Cheng and Cai Kun also unleashed their soul skills and met their respective opponents.

I'll use Frost Sword Finger at one-third of its power.

Lin Hanye stood behind them, thinking to himself.

Bang!

With only their first clash, the opposing Assault System Battle Soul Master was sent flying by Liu Erlong's dragon claws.

Although Niu Cheng's Soul Ring Configuration was inferior to his opponent's, his Soul Power was one or two levels higher, allowing him to fight his opponent on even terms.
