Rules of the Soul Master World

Zhao Wuji did not want to give the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent to Chao Tianxiang.

Of the Peerless Dragon Snake, only Snake Grandma was here. Who knew where Dragon Grandpa had gone?

The old couple were inseparable. Now that Snake Grandma had come with her granddaughter, where was Dragon Grandpa?

He definitely had not failed to come.

He had to be somewhere nearby.

As long as Dragon Grandpa was absent, Zhao Wuji was not afraid of Snake Grandma alone.

Chao Tianxiang could tell that Zhao Wuji did not want to hand over the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent, but there was nothing she could do about him right now.

Zhao Wuji was a Soul Saint, while she was a Soul Emperor.

He was stronger than her.

Zhao Wuji had brought seven students, while she had only brought her granddaughter.

If they fought, her granddaughter could not defeat seven people by herself.

If the old man had been here, the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent would have belonged to her granddaughter.

But the old man was not here.

Chao Tianxiang wanted to stall for time, but Zhao Wuji saw through her.

He had no choice but to tell Chao Tianxiang that Oscar had already reached level 30. He hoped that, for the sake of Oscar's youth and talent, Snake Grandma would form this good bond.

However, Chao Tianxiang had her eye on the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent and did not want to form this good bond.

She proposed settling the matter according to the rules of the Soul Master world.

Holy Spirit Village.

The villagers discussed among themselves, wondering what the rules of the Soul Master world were.

Some bolder villagers even went to ask the kind Soul Master living in Holy Spirit Village.

"The rules of the Soul Master world are that the weak are prey to the strong. Whoever has the bigger fist has the final say," Lin Xianyu muttered softly.

With cultivators like Soul Masters existing on Douluo Continent, it was destined that not everyone could be equal.

Where there were strong people, there would naturally be weak people.

The weak had no voice. To protect themselves, they could only submit to the strong.

Whoever was stronger would be obeyed.

That was how the weak survived.

Of course Zhao Wuji knew the rules of the Soul Master world. They were nothing more than the weak being prey to the strong, with the strong ruling everything.

Chao Tianxiang proposed deciding the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent's ownership according to the rules of the Soul Master world.

She had her granddaughter, Meng Yiran, challenge Zhao Wuji's disciple—Oscar.

The winner would obtain the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent's soul ring.

The loser would get nothing.

Zhao Wuji immediately objected.

Chao Tianxiang thought Zhao Wuji was taking advantage of Dragon Grandpa's absence to bully her, and her face immediately turned pale with anger.

Zhao Wuji hurriedly explained that Oscar was a food-type Soul Master.

Chao Tianxiang froze.

She had thought Oscar was a Battle Soul Master. She had never expected him to be a food-type Soul Master.

He looked two years younger than her granddaughter, yet he had already cultivated to level 30—and he was a food-type Soul Master, a type that naturally cultivated more slowly.

If she could recruit him to support her granddaughter in the future...

Chao Tianxiang was tempted.

She tried to recruit him, only for Oscar to refuse.

Oscar said that he wanted to remain at Shrek Academy. Even if a Title Douluo invited him, he would not leave Shrek Academy.

Zhao Wuji did not know whether to laugh or cry.

In any case, he could graduate from Shrek Academy once he reached level 40.

Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

"An Innate Full Soul Power food-type Soul Master—so long as he does not die, he will certainly become a Title Douluo in the future."

When Ning Fengzhi saw this, he noticed that Snake Grandma had begun trying to recruit Oscar after learning he was a food-type Soul Master.

Every faction on Douluo Continent had its geniuses.

Many geniuses emerged every year.

Yet very few geniuses could grow into Title Douluos.

It was not that they squandered their talent, but that they did not live long enough to become Title Douluos.

Every faction on the continent had plans to assassinate geniuses.

Many geniuses failed to survive those assassinations, dying in the end and turning into nothing but dust.

When Snake Grandma saw that Oscar was a food-type Soul Master with Innate Full Soul Power and had reached level 30 at such a young age, she developed the idea of recruiting him.

If Oscar refused, and circumstances favored her, she might even kill him.

Of course, with Zhao Wuji present, she, a six-ring Soul Emperor, had no confidence in killing Zhao Wuji, a Soul Saint.

Snake Grandma had no intention of causing trouble. She would first secure her granddaughter's soul ring.

Ning Fengzhi was also interested in a food-type Soul Master with Innate Full Soul Power.

Unfortunately, that was a matter for several decades in the future.

Oscar had not even been born yet. Perhaps even his parents had only just been born.

Like the other factions, Ning Fengzhi could only send people to wait around Suotuo City until Oscar was born.

Oscar was a food-type Soul Master with no combat ability, so he could not fight Snake Grandma's granddaughter, Meng Yiran.

At that moment, Tang San stepped forward and volunteered to fight Meng Yiran in Oscar's place. He was confident he could defeat her.

Although he was only a level 29 Soul Grandmaster, one level below the level 30 Meng Yiran, he had Tang Sect hidden weapons.

Zhao Wuji agreed to let Tang San fight.

Chao Tianxiang did not object either.

The battle, with the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent's soul ring as the wager, began!

"Meng Yiran, Spirit Snake Staff, level 30 two-ring Battle Soul Master!"

"Tang San, Blue Silver Grass, level 29 two-ring Battle Soul Master!"

When Meng Yiran heard that Tang San's martial soul was Blue Silver Grass, she found it rather amusing.

Blue Silver Grass was recognized as a useless martial soul.

It was not even as good as a food-type Soul Master.

Yet he was actually fighting her in place of a food-type Soul Master.

What was he thinking?

Could he possibly be certain of victory?

Meng Yiran could not hold back her laughter.

Tang San had long grown accustomed to people mocking his Blue Silver Grass martial soul.

After all, it was a recognized useless martial soul.

Only he knew that, under Grandmaster's guidance, his Blue Silver Grass martial soul was very powerful. Together with his Tang Sect hidden weapons, even a Soul Elder stronger than him might not be able to defeat him.

Not to mention Meng Yiran, a pseudo-Soul Elder who had just broken through to level 30, had yet to obtain her soul ring, and could only use two abilities.

Meng Yiran attacked first, gripping her Serpent Cane as she charged at Tang San.

Tang San stood still and used Mother's Embrace, trapping Meng Yiran.

The Blue Silver Grass formed a cage around Meng Yiran, binding her tightly.

At the same time, a mild toxin entered Meng Yiran's body, producing a numbing effect.

Tang San felt that victory was assured. He would not even need Tang Sect hidden weapons.

This level 30 little girl had far too little combat experience.

Just as Tang San was about to declare the battle over, Meng Yiran slipped out through a gap in the Blue Silver Grass cage.

Her performance left Tang San stunned. He had not expected the Blue Silver Grass's numbing toxin to fail.

Had it not worked at all, or was she immune to its numbing effect?

Tang San's thoughts raced.

After escaping, Meng Yiran used her first Spirit Ability on Tang San—Snake Blade!

Tang San dodged Meng Yiran's attack and began to take her seriously.

He knew he had been careless before.

He could not underestimate any opponent.

During the following exchange with Meng Yiran, Tang San seized her Serpent Cane.

A mocking smile appeared on Meng Yiran's face.

Her Serpent Cane was poisonous.

But Tang San had been a Tang Sect disciple in his previous life, and he used poison in this life as well. He was not afraid of the poison on Meng Yiran's Serpent Cane.

Unwilling to accept this, Meng Yiran began competing with Tang San in Soul Power.
