Defeating Dugu Yan!

"Yan Yan, don't hurt the little friend too badly."

Ye Lingling was still a little worried.

First, she reminded Dugu Yan not to care about a child, then glanced at Lin Xiao. The boy was clearly very likable, so why did he insist on provoking Yan Yan?

He could have mocked anything, yet he just had to mock someone's martial soul?

In the Soul Master World, that was taboo!

Forget it. She would watch from the side and give him treatment in time when needed.

Lin Feng took a deep breath.

He had not wanted to do something that drew hatred like this, but helplessly, the other side simply did not take him seriously, so he could only use this method to prove himself.

Dugu Yan was thirteen years old now, and her soul power was probably at the 28th or 29th level. Her two soul skills were Jade Phosphorous Purple Poison and Fleeting Years, both poison-attribute soul skills.

This way of fighting by relying on toxins was absolutely terrifying to most ordinary soul masters. Before they even touched her, their condition would drop by more than half, and they might even be instantly killed.

In fact, against a soul master who fought with poison, there was not much difference between facing a group and facing one person, because what it caused was area damage anyway. Not to mention that it was the infamous Jade Phosphorous Serpent Poison?

However, the reason Lin Xiao dared to challenge Dugu Yan above his level...

Was precisely because he countered Dugu Yan!

The poison immunity of Ultimate Fire was not just for show.

If he faced another Power Attack System Great Soul Master, Lin Xiao would definitely find it extremely troublesome.

But Dugu Yan...

"I only hope her Dao Heart won't shatter."

Lin Xiao thought inwardly.

After all, he was the one who had provoked her first, and not only was he not enemies with Dugu Yan, they were actually friends with shared interests.

"Lin Xiao, 12th level Soul Master, martial soul Evil Fire Phoenix."

Evil Fire Phoenix?

A trace of surprise surfaced in both Ye Lingling's and Dugu Yan's eyes. After all, a martial soul like a phoenix was not common, and as long as those two words were involved, without exception, it was a top-tier martial soul.

But if his soul power was only at the 12th level...

Ye Lingling smiled as expected.

"Little brother, confidence is a good thing, but being overconfident won't do~"

"But it's all right. Sister will treat you later!"

Dugu Yan crossed her arms over her chest and said coldly, "Dugu Yan, 28th Level Great Soul Master, martial soul Jade Phosphorous Serpent."

Mutually reporting Soul Power Level and martial soul was a necessary precondition for a Soul Fight, and also an established custom in the Soul Master World.

Otherwise, if one rashly made a move, even if one were killed by someone else, one would be in the wrong first.

After they finished reporting their Soul Power Level, the Soul Fight officially began.

"Evil Fire Phoenix, possess!"

"Jade Phosphorous Serpent, possess!"

"First Soul Skill: Phoenix Feather Array!"

Lin Xiao's little face was serious. He stretched out his palm, and a fiery phoenix shot into the sky from his palm, flying into the air. Countless crimson Evil Fire feathers came shooting toward Dugu Yan like they blotted out the heavens and covered the earth!

Dugu Yan was slightly startled.

The power of this brat's soul skill was already comparable to a Great Soul Master's!

How old was his First Soul Ring?

Dugu Yan's body rapidly retreated. Silently, she had already used two soul skills.

"First Soul Skill: Jade Phosphorous Purple Poison!"

"Second Soul Skill: Fleeting Years!"

These were the two soul skills Dugu Yan was proud of. Both were toxin-type soul skills that could inflict negative conditions on the opponent and weaken their combat strength.

Relying on these two soul skills, Dugu Yan could even defeat opponents of a higher level and greater strength than herself!

Her fighting style was extremely simple.

Release poison, then wait!

The opponent would fall on their own!

Jade Phosphorous Serpent Poison reigned supreme across the continent, and a key reason Dugu Bo was also able to obtain the Title Douluo of "Poison" was because Jade Phosphorous Serpent Poison had one most terrifying characteristic.

The more soul power was consumed, the stronger the poison it gave off!

The fiercer an enemy soul master fought, the more danger he put himself in!

"Should I say it's worthy of a Phoenix Martial Soul?"

"Even now, he still hasn't fallen."

Dugu Yan dodged left and right within the Phoenix Feather Array, waiting for Lin Xiao to collapse like a limp shrimp, yet nothing happened for a long while.

Logically speaking, a mere Soul Master should not have lasted more than three seconds, right?

Elsewhere.

Lin Xiao sensed the condition of his own body.

He was still as perfectly fine as ever.

As expected, things like Serpent Poison, though they came in all kinds and those various Neurotoxins struck fear into people's hearts, were still essentially Protein.

And Protein's bane was High Temperature.

Absolute Low Temperature would work too.

Even if the Serpent Poison of Douluo Continent had heat-resistant properties, against Ultimate Fire, it was ultimately as good as useless.

Lin Xiao was now completely certain that Dugu Yan's Serpent Poison had no effect on him!

In that case, the battle should end too.

Under Dugu Yan's puzzled gaze, still carrying a trace of panic, Lin Xiao gently raised his right hand and made a grasping motion in the air.

Immediately, the countless evil flames scattered across the sky and ground actually linked together as if they were alive, forming one bewitching Evil Fire Chain after another.

They completely sealed off the area Dugu Yan was in!

"Your soul skill has a second phase?!"

Dugu Yan cried out in shock, looking at Lin Xiao in disbelief.

Lin Xiao said calmly:

"It always did. I just didn't know before whether I could beat you or not. If I couldn't, and I hurt you on top of that, I'd definitely get beaten up afterward, so I never used it."

Dugu Yan: "..."

Ye Lingling: "..."

What a crafty little brat!

At such a young age, he already had the ways of the world grasped pretty well!

Watching the Evil Fire Chains draw closer and closer, tightening continuously, Dugu Yan retreated step by step, a look of lingering fear appearing on her face.

Sensing that scorching High Temperature, the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Martial Soul trembled lightly, actually showing fear.

She, Dugu Yan, had actually been defeated by a child?

Dugu Yan was very unwilling to accept it!

Her gaze fixed on the Evil Fire Chains, and she was about to force her way out!

However, just then, Lin Xiao snapped his fingers, and the Evil Fire Chains automatically dispersed.

Dugu Yan saw that in the places where the evil fire had once lingered, even the Blue Bricks and stone blocks had been corroded, eaten away until they were incomplete and broken.

If she had chosen to charge through by force just now, she would definitely have suffered heavy injuries!

Dugu Yan looked at Lin Xiao with somewhat complicated feelings.

"Why did you cancel your soul skill?"

Lin Xiao let out a soft breath.

"My goal was already achieved, so I canceled it."

"Besides, I don't want you getting hurt."

After all, if I hurt you, wouldn't your grandfather mess me up to death...

Lin Xiao kept that sentence bottled up in his stomach and did not say it.

"Idiot Yan Yan, even Little friend knows it's wrong to hit your wife!"

"How could he bear to do it?"

Ye Lingling's clear laughter rang out.

Dugu Yan's face flushed bright red with a whoosh, and without another word, she chased after Ye Lingling to hit her. "Lingling, where did that aloof aura of yours from school go?"

"Sometimes I really want to tear that damn mouth of yours apart!"

Ye Lingling turned and ran.

"Stop, stop, stop! I was wrong! I was wrong, okay?"

"Yan Yan, spare me!"

How could a mere Support System Soul Master outrun an Assault System Soul Master?

Before long, Dugu Yan caught Ye Lingling.

Then she gave that cherry little mouth of hers a round of pulling and tearing.
