"Clang!"
In the Training Grounds, rubble and lava had covered most of the ground. In the center of the Training Grounds, where only a small patch of land remained intact, Wu Ling and Karna clashed fiercely with identical golden twin pistols. At the moment of impact, a piercing sound echoed throughout the entire Training Grounds.
The next second, flames surged from the spear Karna held, as he tried to attack Wu Ling with the power of the flames. However, Wu Ling completely ignored the flames that could melt even rocks. He held the spear in one hand and summoned Heracles ' Axe-Sword with the other, then swung it so hard that it sent Karna flying.
Of course, although it did feel like Karna was sent flying, Wu Ling knew that it hadn't actually hurt Karna. Wu Ling clearly saw that, just before the Axe-Sword struck him, the shoulder armor floating on Karna's shoulder blocked the Axe-Sword.
In mid-air, Garna adjusted his posture using the flames released from his back, and then quickly assumed a defensive stance.
Looking at Wu Ling, he was walking excitedly on the ground, which was so hot it felt like molten lava, holding a Golden Spear in one hand and Axe-Sword in the other.
But halfway there, Wu Ling's expression froze. He frowned, glanced at the door, sighed helplessly, and then put all the equipment away.
"Alright, Karna, although you're at a disadvantage, my Soul Power is almost depleted. Let's call this a draw."
Seeing that Wu Ling had put away his weapon, Karna also withdrew from his fighting stance, but he somewhat disagreed with what Wu Ling had said.
"No, Master, a loss is a loss. I can sense that you still have surplus Soul Power, and you were the one who supplied both of us in this battle, so I had the advantage at the beginning, but in the end I was at a disadvantage. Therefore, in general, I lost."
"But please rest assured, Master. Although I have lost this time, I will still prove myself with victory in future battles." Karna said a lot because he believed he had lost.
However, the truth is indeed as Karna said. Under the possession of the previous Heroic Spirit, the Wu Ling's basic abilities were already stronger Karna's. And after obtaining the same equipment as Karna, his strength was indeed enough to overwhelm Karna.
With the Golden Armor and the defense from Heracles, all damage is reduced to one-tenth before being assessed. It can be said that attacking Wu Ling below the Titled Douluo don't even need to be considered.
When Karna uses his Noble Phantasm, the Wu Ling will counter with the same Noble Phantasm. Although both the Wu Ling and Karna are Soul Power by the Wu Ling, the Wu Ling's " Spirit Origin " is already much higher than Karna's ordinary Spirit Origin.
Simply put, it's like two faucets of different sizes in a water tank. Although the total amount of Soul Power is the same, the output is different, which is why Karna's Noble Phantasm is always suppressed by the Wu Ling. Of course, it could also be because the Wu Ling is standing on the right.
However, although the two fought fiercely, it was ultimately just a friendly spar, and neither of them used the God-Slaying Spear. After all, if they had used the God-Slaying Spear, the entire Spirit City would probably have been destroyed.
As for Karna's frankness, Wu Ling waved his hand dismissively, "It's alright, it's alright. I used your Noble Phantasm Noble Phantasm. If I hadn't used them, the outcome would have been uncertain, so let's call it a draw."
To be honest, while Karna's base stats weren't particularly impressive, his Noble Phantasm was truly top-notch. Most importantly, it compensated for his lack of wide-range attacks. With his immense soul power, he could unleash " Brahma, cover the earth!" against armies and " Brahma, Curse Me!" against nations in rapid succession. The thought of such a powerful Soul Power Noble Phantasm was simply amazing.
Upon hearing Wu Ling's words, Karna didn't say anything more this time. However, in his heart, his recognition of Wu Ling increased even more. "Powerful yet humble, truly an ideal Master."
Wu Ling left the Training Grounds. Karna originally intended to Spirit Form and follow her, but when he saw Xiao Fen entering, he stopped Spirit Form.
Karna knew this was his Master's clone, so logically speaking, the Master's clone was also a part of the Master. Therefore, after considering for a moment, Karna asked, "... Master, is there anything I can help you with?"
After hearing this, Xiao Fen corrected her, "You don't need to call me that. Although I am an avatar of the main body, I am essentially just an employee like you, so you can just call me Pink."
"Okay, Pink, are you looking to rebuild this Training Grounds? Do you need my help?"
"Yes, with your help, things will be much easier for me. Thank you, Karna."
Xiao Fen readily agreed to Karna's help, as repairing the training ground was indeed a huge undertaking.
Karna and Wu Ling might not have noticed anything during their battle, but the steps formed on both sides of the Barrier revealed that the Training Grounds ground was nearly ten centimeters lower than other areas, even after Xiao Fen reinforced it with Magic Circle.
Two Anti-Army Noble Phantasm clashed, and two anti- Noble Phantasm clashed. Putting aside the rest of the battle, it can be said that these two attacks alone could have destroyed most of Spirit City without Barrier. However, after Xiao Fen used a large amount of Dragon Bone to urgently strengthen the surrounding Barrier, the Training Grounds became the only victim.
"Forget it, since we're going to rebuild anyway, we might as well take this opportunity to do another round of renovations."
While Xiao Fen and Karna were rebuilding the Training Grounds, Wu Ling met his long-lost teacher Bibi Dong, outside.
Hello, teacher.
"Hmm, it seems Ling'er has made great progress; even I can feel threatened now."
"Oh, it's just luck. It's been a long time since I cooked for you, teacher. Please come in and wait a moment while I go cook. We can eat and chat in a bit."
That evening, Wu Ling and Bibi Dong talked a lot, but Wu Ling only talked about his experiences in the Zither Emperor World and the Yin Yang Crown World, without mentioning a word about the Peerless Tang Sect.
The next day, Wu Ling met with Hu Liena, Oscar, and the others again, and incidentally gave them a long-awaited and generous beating.
On the second night, Wu Ling used the Throne of Heroes to summon the first six Heroic Spirit he had summoned, including Sasaki Kojiro, Hassan of the Hundred Faces, and Medea, to get to know them.
Heracles and Lancelot, being in Berserk, didn't require much effort Servant the Wu Ling. Sasaki, Hundred Personas, and Angra Mainyu were also relatively easy to manage. Medea, however, was entrusted to Xiao Fen. Xiao Fen claimed to fully understand Medea's various preferences and said that with her collection, she could easily win Medea's heart. And as she predicted, Xiao Fen successfully won Medea's heart, except not with her collection, but with Xiao Fen herself...
During this time, Angra Mainyu also gave Wu Ling a shock, which was the Left Arm Spirit Bone originating from the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.
Keep in mind, he just obtained the Left Leg Bone from the Blazing Sun Unicorn while absorbing Spirit Ring today. Two Soul Bone in one day, that's quite an incredible stroke of luck.
But none of the above is the main point. The main point is that, if Wu Ling remembers correctly, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger doesn't have Left Arm Bone either!
