However, as the thousand-year Unicorn Dragon slid outward, its tail coincidentally swept across the position where Lan Kai and Gu Yue were standing.

Gu Yue had already foreseen this and immediately used wind elements to make herself more agile, quickly pulling a considerable distance to the side, with no need to worry about the Unicorn Dragon's body colliding with her.

Then, she and Leng Yaozhu outside the screen watched in shock as Lan Kai, without dodging, directly grabbed the tail of the thousand-year Unicorn Dragon as it swung past. With force from his legs and after sliding back a short distance, he stabilized his body.

Next, a red glow seemed to erupt from Lan Kai's body, and immediately after, he held onto the tail of the thousand-year Unicorn Dragon, spinning in place while dragging the entire beast along with him.

After spinning a few times, Lan Kai threw the entire thousand-year Unicorn Dragon out, and whether by coincidence or not, the direction he threw it was the area with the fewest trees around them.

At the same time, it was also the direction where Gu Yue was standing.

"**** (Douluo profanity)!"

Seeing the thousand-year Unicorn Dragon about to pin her underneath it, Gu Yue couldn't help but curse quite rudely. Simultaneously, she used spatial power to instantly move a distance toward Lan Kai, then quickly returned to his side with the aid of wind elements, standing before him, puffed up with anger, their eyes locking at a distance so close that a squad of matchmakers could have easily intervened.

"You guy, you must have done that on purpose, right?"

"What do you mean on purpose? I just happened to throw it out after spinning a whole number of circles; I didn't pay any attention to the surroundings at all. Besides, if you wanted to hide, shouldn't you have hidden in a direction with more trees?"

Lan Kai replied with a very innocent expression.

By King Ultra and Ultraman Noa, although Lan Kai found Gu Yue somewhat unpleasant due to her world-shaking intelligence, he really had no need to "intentionally" let Gu Yue "die from friendly fire" in a place like the Spirit Ascension Platform where people couldn't actually be killed, especially in front of Leng Yaozhu and Juggler.

Did she really think Leng Yaozhu was a fool, or that Juggler was blind?

Besides, if Lan Kai truly wanted to square up and fight Gu Yue, he would have to go to a dance studio (crossed out) or a more spacious place to do it.

Presumably, as an Ultraman, he could certainly find a dueling ground in the back mountains that belonged to him.

"Who wants to go hide in a place with poor visibility like that! How would I attack then? Besides, you can't stop a Unicorn Dragon once it starts charging. You don't think hiding behind trees is a good idea when facing a Unicorn Dragon, do you?"

"Is your Light-Dark Elemental Wielder Martial Soul actually such an inconvenient thing? Moreover, utilizing suitable cover in the vicinity to fight is a Soul Master's instinct, isn't it?"

As he spoke, Lan Kai's expression shifted. He hurriedly pulled Gu Yue aside with his left hand, then used his right hand to throw a newly condensed Ultra Slash toward the Unicorn Dragon, which had already scrambled back up and was sprinting wildly toward their position once more.

However, this Unicorn Dragon seemed to possess no small amount of intelligence. Facing Lan Kai's Ultra Slash, it actually pulled off an emergency brake, forcibly dodging the attack that would have otherwise struck its neck.

But its horn was still sliced off by Lan Kai.

With its horn hacked off alive, the Unicorn Dragon immediately let out a painful roar, then continued to charge toward Lan Kai's location at an even greater speed.

Gu Yue had originally intended to continue bickering with Lan Kai and hold him accountable for the rough way he had pulled her aside, but seeing Lan Kai cut off the Unicorn Dragon's horn with a single Ultra Slash, for some reason, she felt much more comfortable, and even found Lan Kai much more pleasing to the eye.

I won't hold it against you this time, Gu Yue thought, once again predicting where the Unicorn Dragon's feet were about to land and controlling earth elements to create a pitfall trap.

As the thousand-year Unicorn Dragon stepped onto it, its lower leg became stuck directly in the pit, but its massive body could not stop so easily and it fell forward.

Although the thousand-year Unicorn Dragon's legs were relatively sturdy and were not broken by the pitfall trap Gu Yue had created on the fly, its leg was clearly in bad shape; at the very least, it looked no different from being broken for the time being.

"Then, this thousand-year Unicorn Dragon is yours?"

Seeing that Gu Yue's mood seemed to have improved and her fighting spirit had risen, Lan Kai asked subconsciously.

His first Soul Spirit was already a thousand-year soul spirit, so he didn't need to specifically fight the few thousand-year Soul Beasts in the primary Spirit Ascension Platform.

If he had his way, he would head straight to the depths of the primary Spirit Ascension Platform, solo the guardian of the primary Spirit Ascension Platform, resolve them all with a single Weitian Magic Wand, and then go to the intermediate Spirit Ascension Platform to fight even stronger Soul Beasts.

These hundred-year Soul Beasts in the primary Spirit Ascension Platform could at most serve as practice for Lan Kai; they didn't even necessarily qualify as speed bumps, and the number of thousand-year Soul Beasts was very small, with even larger Soul Beasts being few and far between.

"No problem! Just watch this young lady's skills!"

Saying this, Gu Yue controlled various elements and unleashed them toward the Unicorn Dragon that had already lost its horn.

Having lost its signature horn and its pride-and-joy mobility, this thousand-year Unicorn Dragon could only be reduced to Gu Yue's target practice.

Ten minutes later, the Unicorn Dragon ended its painful life, turning into warm spiritual power that increased the age of Gu Yue's soul ring.

"Tell me, where to next? It looks like you really want to fight thousand-year Soul Beasts; you don't even look twice at some of the hundred-year ones."

After ending the life of that Unicorn Dragon, Gu Yue boasted triumphantly to Lan Kai while asking about his next direction.

"It looks like you want to fight hundred-year Soul Beasts? Then I'll take you to fight to your heart's content. But do you really want to farm some hundred-year Soul Beasts?

"Just now, when we defeated these two thousand-year Soul Beasts, I was the one attracting the attention from the front. If you aren't prepared for me to stop helping you hold the line, then naturally, I have no objections."

Lan Kai asked calmly, confirming Gu Yue's intentions once again.

Although Gu Yue's hidden strength was formidable, Lan Kai did not believe that a one-ring Gu Yue could calmly handle a group of hundred-year Soul Beasts while Leng Yaozhu and Juggler were outside the screen and she only had an idle him by her side.

However, Gu Yue remained determined to farm more hundred-year Soul Beasts, even automatically ignoring the role Lan Kai had played in the previous two battles.

Then, a masterpiece of epic proportions appeared:

The Master of Soul Beasts, chased by a group of hundred-year Flame Lions until tears were streaming down her face.

"Lan Kai, why are you just watching?

"Why aren't you making a move?

"Aren't we partners acting together?

"Could it be that you have already betrayed me?"
