Wu Changkong Only Needed Three Moves! Could He Be a Descendant of the Yu Family? [3K, Please Read On]

[Warm reminder: Wu Changkong is very strong]

[Are you sure you want to challenge him?]

Looking at the words that appeared before him, Lu Li's expression rarely turned serious, and his exasperation reached its peak.

See? There it was again.

Challenging Wu Changkong was one thing, but what was with this so-called warm reminder? Was he supposed to be afraid of East Sea Little Changkong?

"Perhaps Soul Emperors really are strong to Soul Masters, but to me..."

Lu Li smiled to himself without saying anything. As far as he was concerned, Wu Changkong and Tang Wulin were no different.

Still, the rewards for this mission were pretty good: Ultimate Ice Affinity and a Heavenly Treasure...

Ultimate Elemental Affinity.

This was naturally the ability to sense the elements of nature. And as one of the highest-ranked elements, Ultimate Ice was clearly top-tier. As for the Heavenly Treasure, it was undoubtedly just a bonus.

But...

There was no reason to turn down something offered for free.

A benevolent smile appeared on Lu Li's face as he slowly looked toward Wu Changkong.

"I've been watching all of your battles."

"Besides Gu Yue, your combat experience is absolutely terrible. I won't even mention Xie Xie and Tang Wulin."

"Wei Xiaofeng, Yangzi, Jin Xi, and you three—even though you understand one another's Soul Skills, your lack of battle experience means you can't bring out the full potential of your teamwork..."

"You'll need a lot more training from now on."

Wu Changkong's gaze swept over Tang Wulin and the other boys as he spoke calmly.

They were children, after all.

Each of them had their own talents, but they were still young.

He would have to hone them properly from here on, teaching them more combat techniques. With battles and contests against their peers, they would be able to make even better use of their advantages...

"Yes, Teacher Wu!"

Tang Wulin and the others exchanged glances, then nodded. None of them had any objections.

Because, just as Wu Changkong had said, their combat skills were practically nonexistent.

"Mm. If there's no problem, let's begin. Is there something you wanted, Teacher Lu?"

Wu Changkong continued, but when his gaze happened to fall on Lu Li, he saw the latter grinning at him. A hint of confusion appeared on his face.

He...

He had a bad feeling about this.

"Teacher Wu, it's been many years since we last fought. How about I suppress my cultivation to your level?"

"Shall we have a match?"

Lu Li spoke with a calm expression and a smile.

"Hey, hey, hey! Teacher Lu is going to fight Teacher Wu? A Titled Douluo is going to test a Soul Emperor!"

Hearing this, Xie Xie and Tang Wulin's eyes lit up. Xie Xie couldn't help blurting it out.

A Soul Emperor fighting them was something they'd never imagined, but Teacher Lu fighting Teacher Wu? Now that was when the real show would begin!

"Teacher Lu's looking at Teacher Wu the same way Teacher Wu looks at us, isn't he?"

"Is Teacher Wu going to get treated like a kid?"

Wei Xiaofeng grinned in anticipation. Heh heh heh, this was going to be fun.

"It's not that difficult."

"The higher your cultivation, the greater your suppression of those at lower levels. Teacher Lu fighting Teacher Wu will be far harsher than Teacher Wu fighting us. This is a real challenge."

Tang Wulin shook his head, but his interest was undiminished. He'd get to see Big Brother Lu in action!

"Then this is going to be a good show!"

"..."

Gu Yue blinked curiously, unable to take her eyes off Lu Li. A Titled Douluo challenging a Soul Emperor? Big Brother Lu really was interesting.

As for Wu Changkong, the person involved, he pondered for a long while before finally coming back to himself.

"You mean..."

"Me?"

The emotion drained from his face. He fell silent for a moment, then pointed at himself, at a loss for words.

He was supposed to fight Lu Li?

Was this for real?

"Exactly."

"You and me."

Lu Li nodded, his tone still calm.

Wu Changkong fell even quieter.

When he encountered a difficult question, he could just choose not to answer it.

He didn't even know what he was supposed to do.

Was the gap between him and Lu Li large?

Not in age, of course. He was only a little older than Lu Li; they were practically the same generation. But in terms of cultivation...

He had never considered Lu Li an opponent.

Because he wasn't worthy.

"Since you're up for it, I'd be happy to oblige. Six rings, six Soul Skills..."

"Let's go to the field."

Wu Changkong took a deep breath. He had thought about many things, but in the end, he nodded in agreement and spoke slowly.

With his cultivation suppressed to the six-ring Soul Emperor level, at least he could still put up a fight. Besides, the chance to battle Lu Li was rare.

Fine... He'd see just how big the gap between them really was!

"Three moves."

"I only need three moves."

Wu Changkong got up and headed outside, silently telling himself that he only needed three moves.

If he could just withstand those three moves, that alone would be progress!

"..."

It was class time, so there weren't many people on the field. Lu Li and Wu Changkong stood facing each other in the arena.

Down below, Tang Wulin and the others watched, all of them full of anticipation.

The gap between a Titled Douluo and a Soul Emperor was enormous. There was no question about who was stronger, but that didn't stop them from wanting to watch the two fight. Watching two experts like them...

Would be beneficial to them, too!

"Brother Changkong, after you."

Lu Li smiled faintly and spoke first.

"All right."

"Heavenly Frost Sword."

Wu Changkong nodded. Without the slightest hesitation, he released his Martial Soul first.

At the mere thought, six Soul Rings—yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black—flashed into view. A blue longsword wreathed in frost and radiating icy cold was already in his hand.

The sword was named Sky Frost! A top-tier Power Attack System Martial Soul imbued with powerful Ice Element: the Heavenly Frost Sword!

At that moment, he had already displayed his full aura, bringing his level-69 Soul Emperor cultivation to bear!

But in the very next instant, Lu Li moved as well.

A kingly aura flashed into existence, and the enormous phantom of a Dragon King appeared behind him. The immense pressure made Wu Changkong swallow instinctively.

Something was wrong!

He admitted it: he had still underestimated Lu Li's abilities. A Dragon King Martial Soul wielder at the Titled Douluo level, even with his cultivation suppressed to Soul Emperor, could still match a Titled Douluo at the very least!

What should he do...?

As he pondered, Lu Li silently withdrew the pressure of his Martial Soul. In his hand, a long spear slowly took shape.

The spear was seven chi and three cun long, its entire length shimmering with a golden glow. Every pattern on it looked like the scales of a Golden Dragon.

It was his companion soul weapon: the Holy Dragon Spear.

"This is..."

"The Holy Dragon Spear!"

Surprise filled Wu Changkong's eyes. Then a bitter look appeared on his face. Should he be relieved, or should he say he was out of luck?

The moment Lu Li's spear appeared, the light of the Heavenly Frost Sword in Wu Changkong's hand seemed to dim completely.

"A spear?"

"Isn't Teacher Lu's Martial Soul a dragon? How did he bring out a spear?"

The members of Class Zero below the arena were all taken aback. Could Lu Li switch back and forth between Beast Martial Souls and weapon Martial Souls?

"It's a companion soul weapon."

"For powerful Dragon-type Martial Souls, a companion soul weapon like this isn't that surprising."

"And Teacher Lu's Martial Soul is the Golden Holy Dragon King. A companion soul weapon isn't anything shocking."

Gu Yue spoke up calmly.

"A Beast Martial Soul boosted by a weapon Martial Soul."

"Teacher Lu is just too overpowered."

Xie Xie couldn't help sighing. If only his Twin Martial Souls were dragons. Maybe his Light Dragon Dagger and Shadow Dragon Dagger...

Could both just be soul weapons instead?

Xie Xie pondered. Mm, maybe he should try dreaming about that tonight.

"The Golden Holy Dragon King... It's more than ten times stronger than the Golden Sacred Dragon I saw back then. Does his bloodline come from the Yu Family?"

"But the quality shouldn't be this high."

Inside Tang Wulin, Tang San's attention had already been drawn to Lu Li. Sensing the unmistakable aura of a Dragon Clan king that emanated from him, Tang San couldn't help feeling surprised.

When he heard the name of Lu Li's Martial Soul, he couldn't help thinking of an old friend of his from the Douluo Continent.

"Could a descendant of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Yu Family mutate their Martial Soul into the Golden Holy Dragon, then mutate it again into this?"

Tang San pondered. Two thousand years ago, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon had already been the strongest Beast Martial Soul in the world, and it had even had the potential to evolve.

Just like how Mu En, the so-called Dragon God Douluo, had appeared ten thousand years ago. His Martial Soul was the Bright Holy Dragon, but Lu Li's Martial Soul was even stronger!

A pure Dragon King-level Martial Soul. It wasn't as powerful as the Golden Dragon King, but if they were at the same level...

Without exaggeration, even he, a God King, might not be able to win outright without relying on Hidden Weapon Hundred Interpretations and the Tang Sect Secret Arts. At best, they would be evenly matched.

Could the Yu Family's bloodline really be that terrifying?

"Tsk, my teacher back then wasn't like this."

Tang San sighed with emotion, thinking of Yu Xiaogang, the Divine Dragon Douluo who had only become a Titled Douluo after drinking his divine blood. He shook his head.

Why could the difference between people...

Be this great?

His mortal teacher's talent really was so bad that even a dog would shake its head!

"..."

Yu Xiaogang (furious): "I've been dead for twenty thousand years, and you're still taking shots at me! That's enough, Xiaosan!"

Tang San (shaking his head): "Gangzi, know your place. You're nothing but a good-for-nothing that even a dog would shake its head at."

Yu Xiaogang: "Oh, you just shook your head, didn't you?"

Tang San: "?"
