Yu Tianheng's expression shifted between light and shadow. After pondering for a long while, he concluded that his extensive combat experience gave him the advantage.
Furthermore, with everyone watching, if he backed down after initiating the challenge, wouldn't he be bringing shame upon the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect?
No matter what, Yu Tianheng could not retreat.
"Fine, I accept!"
"If you win, I will give you what you want."
"If you lose, I want you to never appear at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy again."
Seeing this, the corners of Zhou Tong's mouth curled up involuntarily; he was quite eager to see exactly what the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect was capable of.
At this moment, on the high platform.
Gu Rong watched the wager between Yu Tianheng and Zhou Tong below and said with a smile, "Old Poison, your disciple is impressive, but isn't he a bit too arrogant?"
"Yu Tianheng possesses the number one beast martial soul in the world."
"If that kid loses, he'll be infamous."
"Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers; this kid is still too young. Being too rigid makes one prone to breaking—he shouldn't be so reckless."
"Old Poison, as his teacher, aren't you going to step in and save the situation?"
After his initial surprise, Gu Rong regained his composure. Yu Tianheng's strength was plain for all to see; he was someone with the potential to become a Titled Douluo.
"Hmph!"
Dugu Bo let out a cold snort, his lips curling with a touch of mockery. "Old Bone, you'd better worry about your Ning Rongrong instead. How could my disciple fight a battle he wasn't prepared for?"
"Watch out, my disciple might just blind your dog eyes."
As soon as these words were spoken, Gu Rong instantly blew up. "Old Poison, keep talking tough."
Gu Rong sneered, though he felt it was a pity that a young genius like Zhou Tong was about to fall due to his own arrogance.
Seeing this, Ning Fengzhi felt a bit helpless. It wasn't the first or second day that these two had enjoyed bickering; they were both old bones now, yet they still acted like this.
However, since they were both soul masters of the Heaven Dou Empire, they wouldn't easily come to blows.
Zhou Tong and Yu Tianheng arrived on the arena stage.
"Zhou Tong, I lost to you by accident last time, but this time, I am certain to win. Prepare to leave the Heaven Dou Royal Academy."
"Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, possess!"
Before the fight began, Yu Tianheng didn't forget to throw out a taunt; he had been stifled for far too long during this period.
He had originally been the supernova of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, obsessed over by young girls, only to be ruthlessly overshadowed by Zhou Tong.
His status had plummeted, and he had spent this time living a very difficult life.
He had endured plenty of criticism and cold glares from others.
Now, having endured humiliation to carry out his mission, Yu Tianheng had finally found his chance for revenge.
This time, he would trample Zhou Tong under his feet and wash away his shame.
At this moment, after Yu Tianheng's martial soul possessed him, his body expanded rapidly.
Streaks of blue electric arcs shot out from within his body, beginning to swirl around him.
Most striking of all was his body, which had sprouted large patches of blue dragon scales.
Yu Tianheng's limbs began to swell, his arms becoming exceptionally thick until they finally transformed into dragon claws and dragon horns.
At this point, Yu Tianheng had transformed into a half-dragon, half-human creature.
"He can actually activate a partial Dragon Transformation of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul!"
"Yu Tianheng is truly the supernova of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect."
The onlookers were left dumbfounded as they watched Yu Tianheng display his partial Dragon Transformation ability.
Dragon Transformation was a vital ability of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect's martial soul; once activated, it could significantly strengthen their physique and allow them to take on the form of a Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon.
The higher the degree of Dragon Transformation, the more they resembled a Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon.
Yu Tianheng's spirit possession was only a semi-finished product.
But given his strength, being able to achieve this level was already quite remarkable.
Within the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, very few could reach this stage.
Standing opposite him, Zhou Tong's gaze was clear and bright, his face filled with interest as he watched Yu Tianheng.
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul was known as the continent's number one beast martial soul for a reason; it truly had its miraculous aspects.
The Dragon Transformation Yu Tianheng was using seemed to be a divine ability that made the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon powerful.
On the sidelines, Ning Rongrong and the others watched Yu Tianheng transform into a half-dragon man, their mouths hanging open in surprise for a long time.
"This Yu Tianheng... he can actually perform a Dragon Transformation."
"I heard that one can only unlock Dragon Transformation upon reaching the Soul Venerable rank. Yu Tianheng is only a Soul Venerable, yet he can already achieve partial Dragon Transformation; he's too strong."
"After Dragon Transformation, one's physical attributes increase significantly. He's practically a humanoid savage dragon."
Beyond that, Dragon Transformation also grants a massive boost to one's resistance against lightning power.
Ning Fengzhi smiled slightly; his daughter was finally not being so arrogant anymore. "Rongrong, the Imperial Fighting Team is full of geniuses. You should learn from them."
"Hmph!"
"I don't believe it. If I were his age, I would definitely have surpassed Yu Tianheng's soul power level long ago."
"I don't think this Yu Tianheng is all that impressive, either."
"That Zhou Tong, on the other hand, actually has a ten-thousand-year third soul ring. It's truly terrifying."
A look of approval for Zhou Tong appeared on Ning Rongrong's pretty face.
She made up her mind to find an opportunity to ask Zhou Tong exactly how he managed to absorb a ten-thousand-year soul ring.
At this moment, Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling were also watching the duel between Zhou Tong and Yu Tianheng from the stands.
They were quickly drawn to Yu Tianheng's exaggerated appearance, but they soon looked away.
"Lingling, how many moves do you think it will take for Zhou Tong to defeat Yu Tianheng?"
Dugu Yan looked curiously at Ye Lingling beside her.
"Probably no more than three moves."
"Although Yu Tianheng is a Soul Venerable and can partially activate Dragon Transformation, his strength might not be that high."
"Zhou Tong's soul skills are simply too heaven-defying."
"I'm even worried that if Zhou Tong uses his third soul skill, Yu Tianheng won't be able to withstand it."
Ye Lingling did not hesitate and spoke immediately.
"Then the future captain will likely be the ten-year-old Zhou Tong."
Dugu Yan's beautiful eyes turned toward Zhou Tong, filled with astonishment.
To be the captain of the Imperial Fighting Team at ten years old—it was simply too terrifying.
At this moment, the soul duel on the stage began.
As Yu Tianheng completed his martial soul possession, Zhou Tong's Thunderous Hell Vine also appeared.
One could see an arm-thick blue-gold vine emerging from his body, flickering with numerous electric arcs.
"First soul skill, Thunderbolt!"
"Second soul skill, Blue Silver Tyrant Emperor Armor!"
Zhou Tong activated two soul skills directly. As for his third soul skill, Thunder Beam, its power was too great; Zhou Tong estimated that Yu Tianheng might not be able to endure it, so he did not activate it.
At the same time, Yu Tianheng also activated his soul skill.
"Third soul skill, Thunder Fury!"
As the third soul ring behind Yu Tianheng flickered slightly, a massive amount of lightning power erupted from his body.
"Zhou Tong, you're going to stumble this time, because I am no longer who I used to be."
"My Dragon Transformation body is best at restraining lightning power."
