Curiosity is the beginning of the fall!

At this moment, Tang Yin, who was sitting to the side, sensed Ye Lingling's predicament.

Regarding this, Tang Yin smiled directly and said.

"Actually, it's nothing much; let me explain."

"There's nothing special to it; it's just that Little San and I needed to obtain our second soul rings, so we went to the Star Dou Great Forest."

"We were quite lucky and encountered a Vajra Overlord Tiger of a suitable age, and the two of us brothers put in some effort to slay it."

"It just so happened that Aunt Ye and Miss Lingling were nearby and were drawn over by the commotion of the battle, and that is how we met."

"Aunt Ye is kind-hearted; seeing that we brothers were young and appreciating our slight talent, she invited us to travel together, and later even cordially invited us to be guests in Heaven Dou Imperial City."

"Since we brothers were new here and unfamiliar with the place, we shamelessly imposed upon you."

Seeing Tang Yin help her out of the awkward situation, Ye Lingling felt quite grateful.

However, seeing Tang Yin speaking, Dugu Yan listened with great interest.

For some reason, Ye Lingling felt inexplicably uncomfortable in her heart, as if something that belonged to her was about to be snatched away by someone else.

But because she was thin-skinned.

Since she didn't want to speak earlier, and now that Tang Yin was helping her explain, Ye Lingling felt too embarrassed to interrupt.

She could only grip her skirt tightly with her jade-like hands and bite her lower lip with her pearly teeth.

"A Vajra Overlord Tiger? That is a very formidable soul beast!"

"If it had several hundred years of cultivation, an ordinary soul master wouldn't be able to defeat it!"

"Before you hunted this Vajra Overlord Tiger, you must have only been soul masters, right!"

Because Tang Yin did not reveal the cultivation age of the Vajra Overlord Tiger, Dugu Yan assumed it was only a few hundred years old, yet she still widened her emerald-like beautiful eyes in shock.

To this, Tang Yin smiled slightly and indicated.

"If we had used brute force, Little San and I might not have been able to defeat that Vajra Overlord Tiger, but compared to soul beasts, the greatest advantage we humans have is our intelligence."

"Therefore, we cleverly used some wisdom..."

Tang Yin briefly recounted how they set a trap, used a Green Wood Deer to lure the Vajra Overlord Tiger into it, and then used his own specially crafted weapons to severely wound the Vajra Overlord Tiger before finally slaying it.

"Specially crafted weapons?"

Hearing this, Dugu Yan couldn't help but be very curious and wanted to press for more.

"What kind of weapons are they?"

However, Tang Yin gave a mysterious smile and kept her in suspense.

"That is a secret; it is not yet the time to reveal it."

"In the future, Sister Yanzi will know!"

Because he knew very well that the beginning of a woman's downfall is feeling curiosity toward a man.

Tang Yin only told half the story, avoiding any mention of the most critical hidden weapons and the Fragmentation Grenade.

This left Dugu Yan feeling somewhat helpless.

But since they had just met, she couldn't very well get to the bottom of it.

After all, a specially crafted weapon capable of severely wounding a century-old Vajra Overlord Tiger certainly couldn't be simple.

This forced Dugu Yan to huff in annoyance, crossing her jade arms over her chest as she said.

"Fine, you little brother Tang Yin, keeping me in suspense!"

"Fine! In the future, I will have to see what this secret of yours is!"

While Tang Yin and Dugu Yan were conversing.

In the lounge.

The loudspeaker Soul Tool had already announced several soul masters taking the stage one after another.

However, it hadn't reached Dugu Yan, Tang Yin, or Tang San yet.

But finally, the loudspeaker Soul Tool called out Tang Yin's name.

"Next, we will conduct the sixth match of the one-on-one soul fighting in the Soul Grand Master group of our Sixteenth Soul Arena. The two contestants taking the stage are both Soul Grand Masters!"

"They are the twin star of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, who possesses the beast martial soul Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon and hails from Thunder Academy, contestant Yu Tianxin!"

"He has currently achieved a seven-match winning streak in the Great Soul Arena!"

"And contestant Tang Yin, who possesses the special beast martial soul Mysterious Jade Arm and is currently a registered Iron Soul Fighter of our Tiandu Great Soul Arena. Please look forward to his performance!"

"Tsk~"

As the host's voice came through the loudspeaker Soul Tool.

At the same time, a chorus of "Tsk" sounds came from the audience, who were clearly not very interested in this soul fight.

Because one was the famous Yu Tianxin, the twin star of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect who possessed the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul, while the other was the unknown Tang Yin, who had just registered at the Tiandu Great Soul Arena and whose martial soul appeared to be a mutated twin-arm type.

Any "discerning person" could see at a glance that there was no suspense!

"Tang Yin, it's your turn!"

"I didn't expect you to run into Yu Tianxin; that guy is quite formidable!"

"However, although their Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul is very powerful, fortunately, he hasn't broken through to Soul Elder yet and has yet to acquire the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon's strongest ability: Dragon Transformation."

"Good luck!"

Seeing Tang Yin head toward the arena first, Dugu Yan couldn't help but briefly share some information about Yu Tianheng before cheering Tang Yin on.

"Big brother, good luck!"

"I believe you can definitely win!"

Tang San was equally trusting and excited.

"G-good luck..."

Ye Lingling, with her cold and reserved nature, was a bit thin-skinned. Feeling too shy to join Dugu Yan and Tang San, she simply bit her lower lip, her pretty face flushing slightly as she nodded at Tang Yin.

She whispered a cheer in a voice so soft it was barely audible.

Tang Yin didn't even hear it, but he still wore a smile.

"I think so too; I'll definitely win!"

With that, Tang Yin turned and strode toward the contestant passage leading to the sub-arena, walking through the long corridor until he reached the entrance.

As soon as he stepped out of the corridor and into the arena, a soul-guided spotlight shone down from above, illuminating him.

Tang Yin's appearance was instantly exposed to the many spectators.

On the other side, another soul-guided spotlight hit Yu Tianxin.

Tang Yin looked over to see Yu Tianxin dressed in blue-silver finery. He was tall and well-built with long golden hair and a handsome face, but his temperament was incredibly sharp.

It was enough to make people feel somewhat uncomfortable.

The audience had originally been cheering and shouting for Yu Tianxin.

But after seeing Tang Yin through the spotlight, some young girls finally changed their tune and began calling out Tang Yin's name.

Yet, their voices were still drowned out by the mountain-like, tidal waves of cheers for Yu Tianheng.

After stepping onto the soul fighting platform, Tang Yin and Yu Tianxin walked to the center as directed by the host and exchanged bows.

"Yu Tianxin, level 26 Power Attack System Soul Grand Master, martial soul: Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon!"

After introducing himself, Yu Tianxin spoke with an arrogant, condescending air.

"You have no hope of winning against me."

"You might as well just surrender!"

"That way, you can avoid some physical pain!"

Seeing Yu Tianxin's condescending, haughty demeanor, Tang Yin was left speechless.

"A level 26 Power Attack System Soul Grand Master—is that supposed to be impressive?"

"I'm a level 29 Soul Grand Master myself!"

Tang Yin chuckled.

"And as for the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul, so what?"

"If your Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect's martial soul were truly that strong, why would it rank at the very bottom of the current Upper Three Sects—excluding the Clear Sky Sect, which has sealed itself away and isn't ranked—and fail to even compare to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?"

Hearing Tang Yin's words, it was as if a nerve had been struck. Yu Tianxin immediately clenched his fists, his eyes turning blood-red as he breathed heavily, roaring in fury.

"Damn brat, how dare you blaspheme my Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect!"

"You're courting death!!"

"Today, I'll see to it that I crush every bone in your body!"

Once the host announced the start of the match, Yu Tianxin let out a thunderous roar.

"Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, possess!!"
