First Soul Skill!

Two-on-two soul fight, Seventh Soul Fighting Branch, "Go, Twin Guns Combo! Skewer the hell out of them for me!"

"Smiling Swordsman, get up there! Cut down Twin Guns Combo one by one for me!"

"Come on, keep fighting!"

"..."

On the Soul Fighting Stage, Little Fatty Shi Zheng, wearing a Tiger Head Mask, hid behind Yu Bai as two Soul Rings lit up in succession.

In an instant, two strips of jerky—a reddish-brown one and a charred yellow one—appeared directly in Little Fatty Shi Zheng's hands, giving off an enticing aroma!

"Little Bai! Catch!"

With that, Little Fatty tossed the two strips of jerky toward Yu Bai's back!

Yu Bai wrinkled his nose, and his eyes lit up. His right hand tightened around the Everlasting Sword as he slid its blade down the shaft of one of the Twin Guns Combo's martial soul spears!

Sparks flew wherever the blade passed!

In an instant, the sharp edge of the Everlasting Sword was about to reach the hand gripping the spear shaft!

Perhaps the man had not expected Yu Bai to suddenly pull such a move. In his panic, he instinctively released the spear with his right hand, narrowly avoiding the Everlasting Sword's edge!

What he failed to notice was that a glint suddenly flashed in Yu Bai's eyes. Yu Bai lunged forward in an instant, unexpectedly grabbed the man by the collar with his left hand, and without another word, threw him over his shoulder with brutal force!

Boom!

A crater was instantly smashed into the floor of the Soul Fighting Stage. The man lay in it with his eyes rolled back, unconscious. He probably would not recover enough to participate in soul fights again for around a week!

"Yang Hao!"

Seeing his companion beaten so badly, the other Soul Grandmaster, whose martial soul was also a spear, no longer cared about the match. He hurried to the crater on the Soul Fighting Stage and quickly checked on his teammate.

Hearing Yu Bai's words, the worry on the man's face finally faded. He called over the staff to carry Yang Hao away and have a healing soul master treat him. Only then did he stand up and look solemnly at Yu Bai and Little Fatty Shi Zheng as he earnestly requested, "I want to have a serious fight with you!"

"I noticed it earlier. From the very beginning, while fighting my brother and me, you never used a single soul skill!"

"So I know that your true strength is far beyond mine!"

"But in a soul fight, if one cannot even force out an opponent's true strength, wouldn't that be far too regrettable? It would also make me, as the opponent, seem utterly incompetent!"

"So, Smiling Swordsman, use your full strength and defeat me!"

"Of course, I know this is a two-on-two match. Asking you for a one-on-one duel is shameless enough, especially when my teammate has already been eliminated. So let me make this clear beforehand: no matter the outcome of my challenge against Mr. Smiling Swordsman, we have already lost this soul fight!"

"I hope Mr. Smiling Swordsman will accept my challenge!"

Hearing a contestant say this, the host wore an awkward expression. Just as he was about to step in and say that this violated the Great Soul Arena's rules, wave after wave of shouts erupted from the spectator stands!

"This is what a man's battle should be! Accept him!"

"That's right, accept his challenge! So what if we lose our bets again?! Let's have a passionate battle between men!"

"Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight without regrets!"

"..."

On the Soul Fighting Stage, Little Fatty was startled by the shouts from the surrounding stands. He instinctively turned to Yu Bai beside him, wanting Yu Bai to make the decision.

"Little Fatty, I'm a little interested in this guy!"

"Can you leave this fight to me?"

Though Yu Bai often teased his brother verbally, he also respected every one of his choices. He never made decisions for Little Fatty. That was the most basic respect between brothers!

Therefore, whenever faced with such a situation, Yu Bai would ask for Little Fatty's consent!

Hearing Yu Bai's request, Little Fatty rolled his eyes irritably.

"You brat, don't waste too much time!"

As he spoke, he kept eating jerky while jumping straight off the Soul Fighting Stage!

"I'll treat you to a feast later!"

After shouting that to Little Fatty, Yu Bai turned to face his opponent. His sharp gaze locked onto the young man as he said, "You're not bad. Before we fight, tell me who you are. You're qualified to be remembered by yours truly!"

Hearing Yu Bai's words, the young man opposite him grew solemn as well.

"Yang Yu, Rank 29 Soul Grandmaster. Martial soul: Formation-Breaking Spear! Fourteen years old, a second-year student of Cassell Academy. Please advise!"

Yu Bai was somewhat surprised to learn that this guy was actually an upperclassman—and that, judging by his build and appearance, he was only fourteen!

He knew that boys and girls on Douluo Continent developed differently from those in his previous life, but this guy looked far too old for his age!

Suppressing the urge to complain, Yu Bai flicked the Everlasting Sword in his hand and shouted, "I'll remember you. Now then, try and defeat me!"

"This time, I'll be going all out. Don't die!"

Hearing Yu Bai's seemingly dismissive words, Yang Yu did not let his guard down in the slightest. Both their earlier battle and the Soul Power aura erupting from his opponent told him that his opponent was strong!

But isn't that perfect?

With that thought, Yang Yu likewise unleashed the Soul Power within him. He stepped forward with his left leg, gripped his spear in his right hand, and assumed an attacking stance as he shouted at Yu Bai, "Watch out!"

As soon as the words fell, Yang Yu forcefully pushed off with his left leg, erupting with powerful Soul Power and launching himself toward Yu Bai. At the same time, he swung the spear in his hand in a Force Splits Mount Hua stance!

At the same time, Yang Yu's first and second Soul Rings lit up in midair, "First Soul Skill! Charged Strike!"

"Second Soul Skill! Sky-Breaking Strike!"

In an instant, Yang Yu's Formation-Breaking Spear martial soul exuded an incomparably sharp and domineering aura, as though it could shatter everything before it!

Seeing Yang Yu's strike, battle intent rose in Yu Bai's eyes beneath the smiling face mask.

In an instant, Yu Bai's first Soul Ring flared with light.

At the same time, Yu Bai also leaped into the air and shouted, "First Soul Skill, Immortal's Heavenly Flight!"

Instantly, incomparably sharp Sword Qi erupted from Yu Bai's Everlasting Sword, seeming to turn everything around them into a world of Sword Qi!

A strike from midair, flawless and untainted!

Below the stage, Little Fatty could not help but exclaim when he saw Yu Bai truly use his first Soul Skill, "So this is Little Bai's first Soul Skill—a Locking Skill that instantly unleashes two hundred percent of his power!"

"With this Soul Skill, it wouldn't be hard for Little Bai to fight opponents above his level!"

"That guy over there should be able to lose wholeheartedly this time!"
