Truly His Son. Huo Yuhao's Unwillingness!

However, Gu An could not yet influence the battle silently in front of so many people.

Having lived two lifetimes, his spiritual power had barely reached the level of the Spirit Connection Realm.

He possessed the spiritual power, but lacked any means of attack.

It was like a strong man with brute force but no knowledge of any martial arts.

Therefore, if he wanted to have a substantial impact on the battle, Leng Yaozhu had to make a move.

Gu An leaned toward Leng Yaozhu's ear and lowered his voice to tell her his plan.

His lips were almost pressed against her earlobe, and the hot breath he exhaled made the tip of her ear twitch slightly.

After listening, a look of helplessness appeared on Leng Yaozhu's face.

However, she did not refuse.

She would never refuse a request from Xiao An.

She closed her eyes slightly, and a trace of extremely subtle spiritual power separated from her consciousness, spreading silently toward the Soul Fighting Platform.

The target was Huo Yuhao.

As for Wang Dong, she did not touch him.

Because Gu An was still in his developmental stage, his strength had far from matured.

He could not let God King Tang discover anything amiss.

Although Gu An was unsure if God King Tang had left any contingencies or divine consciousness imprints inside Wang Dong.

It was best not to gamble.

In the event that Tang San was alerted and that God King Tang descended personally to take over the fight.

If he discovered the existence of an outsider like Gu An, he would certainly target him relentlessly.

His attention toward the Douluo Continent would also increase significantly.

Even if Destruction was currently keeping an eye on Tang San in the God Realm, he could not take this risk.

On the Soul Fighting Platform.

The battle had entered its most critical juncture.

Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu exerted their strength simultaneously.

"Martial Soul Fusion Skill! Nether White Tiger!"

Their martial souls intertwined and merged in the air, and a massive Nether White Tiger took shape on the Soul Fighting Platform.

The white tiger was wreathed in black and white light, and as its tiger claws struck the ground, the entire Soul Fighting Platform trembled slightly.

Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong exchanged a glance.

Their eyes became determined at the same time.

They would also use a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

Only a Martial Soul Fusion Skill could properly counter another Martial Soul Fusion Skill!

Although they were unaware that Martial Soul Fusion Skills had a seven-day cooldown period.

Huo Yuhao turned his head and shouted to Xiao Xiao.

"Xiao Xiao, block it for a while."

Wang Dong couldn't even be bothered to say much.

Xiao Xiao stood in front of the two, looking at the Nether White Tiger that was countless times larger than her.

The corners of her mouth twitched, and her expression was filled with speechlessness.

She looked down at her small frame and her Three-Life Soul-Suppressing Cauldron.

Then she looked up at the Nether White Tiger pouncing toward her.

She was a two-ring Great Soul Master.

Blocking a three-ring Soul Venerable-level Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

Was this for real?

They really thought highly of her.

"I..."

Before she could say anything, Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao had already locked eyes, unable to hear her.

The two held hands tightly.

Their fingers interlaced.

They closed their eyes at the same time.

The Haodong Power flowed between them, weaving their soul power together.

As a result, several seconds passed, and nothing happened.

Wang Dong frowned, his grip tightening even further.

Beads of sweat broke out on Huo Yuhao's forehead as he gritted his teeth, desperately channeling the soul power within his body.

Leng Yaozhu sat in the spectator stands, her fingertips twitching slightly as a wisp of spiritual power stood ready.

She had intended to interfere.

But she immediately realized that there was no need for her to intervene at all.

They were already failing on their own.

The seven-day cooldown for their martial soul fusion skill had not yet passed.

However, just as Leng Yaozhu prepared to withdraw her spiritual power, her eyebrows suddenly arched slightly.

"Hmm? They can actually still fuse?"

The two streams of soul power attempting to merge had truly begun to resonate with one another.

It was extremely faint.

Truly worthy of being the favored son of Douluo Planet, the child of destiny for this world.

Even if their martial soul fusion skill cooldown hadn't ended, as long as they were given enough time, they could genuinely succeed in merging slowly.

But the problem was.

Where would they find the time?

On the other side of the Soul Fighting Platform, the Nether White Tiger had opened its maw, letting out a roar that shook the entire arena.

Xiao Xiao stood between the Nether White Tiger and the pair of Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong.

The Three-Life Soul-Suppressing Cauldron before her was only half a person's height, shielding her.

"Give up! Do you really think... you can stop us?"

The moment the words fell, a giant claw swiped down.

"Whether I can stop you or not, I have to try!"

Just because she had made up her mind to leave Shrek did not mean she would fight half-heartedly!

"First Soul Skill! Cauldron Shock!"

Xiao Xiao gritted her teeth as the Three-Life Soul-Suppressing Cauldron split into three, blocking the Nether White Tiger's attack.

"Clang—!"

The tiger claw struck the surface of the cauldrons, producing a deafening sound of clashing metal.

The Blue Steel Rock floor beneath Xiao Xiao's feet cracked instantly, her arms went numb, and the webbing between her thumbs and forefingers throbbed with pain.

"Is that it? Let's see how many attacks you can block!"

As Dai Huabin's voice faded, a second claw followed immediately.

Xiao Xiao held her ground once more, though a trace of blood spilled from the corner of her mouth.

She turned her head to glance at Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong behind her.

"Are you not ready yet? I can't hold on much longer!" she gritted out.

Unfortunately, the two of them could not hear her voice at all.

The next moment.

Another claw struck.

The Three-Life Soul-Suppressing Cauldron was swiped away, spinning through the air several times before slamming into the edge of the Soul Fighting Platform with a dull thud.

With her martial soul damaged, Xiao Xiao's body was sent flying, rolling across the ground several times before coming to a stop.

She lay on the ground, struggling to lift her head to look toward Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong.

The Nether White Tiger swept past her, kicking up a gust of foul wind.

Its target was none other than Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong.

Feeling the whistling wind, the two opened their eyes simultaneously.

They saw the scene they least wanted to see in their lives.

A massive tiger claw was rapidly enlarging within their field of vision.

Their pupils constricted at the same time.

Forced to let go of each other's hands, they rolled in opposite directions to dodge.

The tiger claw slammed into the spot where they had just been standing, sending gravel flying in all directions.

The martial soul fusion skill had been interrupted.

Dai Huabin's voice emanated from the mouth of the Nether White Tiger, carrying an irrepressible sense of triumph and arrogance.

"Get off the stage already."

"A mere one-ringed soul master thinks they deserve to make it this far? You've reached the end of the line!"

The Nether White Tiger lunged forward once more.

Without their martial soul fusion skill, Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong stood no chance against a three-ring Soul Venerable-level martial soul fusion skill.

"Hmph! So what if it's a martial soul fusion skill!"

"Second soul skill! Light of the Father God!"

After unleashing his second soul skill, Wang Dong spread the wings of the Radiant Goddess Butterfly, attempting to take flight and create distance for a counterattack.

Unfortunately, the Nether White Tiger did not grant her that opportunity, swatting her out of the air with a single claw.

"Wang Dong!"

Huo Yuhao cried out in alarm.

"First soul skill! Mental Shock!"

He unleashed his Mental Shock, but the Nether White Tiger merely faltered for a brief moment.

Immediately, it swiped him away with a claw, sending him crashing into the guardrail at the edge of the Soul Fighting Platform with a dull thud.

Even his million-year soul ring was useless.

Sky Dream Ice Worm had already fallen into a deep slumber due to Leng Yaozhu, and had only been forced awake to provide rescue during Ma Xiaotao's indiscriminate attack.

Now, it had fallen into an even deeper sleep, unable to offer Huo Yuhao any assistance whatsoever.

He could only rely on himself.

Yet, with his own raw strength, there was simply no way to win.

The Nether White Tiger's final claw descended.

Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao were both swatted to the edge of the Soul Fighting Platform.

Huo Yuhao's back slammed heavily against the ground, and his vision began to blacken.

Struggling to his feet, his eyes remained locked on the Nether White Tiger roaring toward the sky upon the Soul Fighting Platform.

He clenched his fists so tightly that his nails dug into his palms, blood seeping out from between his fingers.

No matter what, he refused to lose to that man's son!

He didn't want to, not even a little.

A surge of immense resentment and blame welled up in his heart.

Why hadn't Xiao Xiao blocked it?

Why had Xiao Xiao been defeated so quickly?

If Xiao Xiao could have held on for a little longer, even just a few more seconds, he and Wang Dong's martial soul fusion skill would have been completed.

If Xiao Xiao hadn't been late, hadn't worn that indifferent expression, perhaps their coordination would have been better.

If Xiao Xiao had listened to Teacher Zhou Yi and added a soul ring to her second martial soul, perhaps she really could have blocked the Nether White Tiger.

This resentment, this anger, this hatred.

It accumulated more and more within his chest.

The overwhelming negative emotions churned in his mind, stirring Electrolux, who had been slumbering deep within his sea of consciousness!
