"Jade Phosphor Twelve Fingers!"
Dugu Feng's hands moved like butterflies weaving through flowers. His third and fourth attacks followed one after another.
He stood on the Soul Arena, his gaze sharp, both hands continuously shooting out fine rays as if he were unleashing a spirit skill.
In truth, after the third attack, his meridians had already begun to heat up.
He hurriedly drew on the energy of the Pill Bead to protect his meridians, and only then was he able to keep using the technique.
Looks like my meridians still need further strengthening, Dugu Feng thought to himself.
He looked coldly at the figures in the air.
Just the force of the Jade Phosphor Twelve Fingers is already enough to wear you down, but my strongest weapon is poison.
He knew very well that Feng Ling, Feng Li, and Ning Rongrong were about to be poisoned.
"This Dugu Feng is too astonishing. It's only been half a year since he awakened his martial soul, and his spirit skill already has such powerful Attack Power!"
Below the stage, Ge Ying no longer knew what to say. Dugu Feng was too monstrous.
Even more shocked than him was an indignant young girl with green eyes and short, dark-purple hair.
It was none other than Dugu Yan.
Is Dugu Feng really this powerful?
Dugu Yan could hardly believe it. She was already a Soul Grandmaster now and had obtained her Second Spirit Ring not long ago.
But according to her grandfather's arrangements, her second spirit skill was Jade Phosphor Blue Poison, also known as Paralysis Poison. Its effect was to eliminate pain and increase defense by thirty percent. It was an Amplification Skill.
Her first spirit skill, Jade Phosphor Red Poison, also known as Excitement Poison, stimulated the nerves, increasing Attack Power and speed by twenty percent.
Her grandfather's reasoning was that she would follow the Control System path in the future, and these two skills were the foundation of the Control System.
They could both amplify teammates and lay the groundwork for forming a domain.
But now, seeing Dugu Feng's razor-sharp poison attacks, she was shaken.
Are we cultivating the same martial soul?
She was utterly baffled. Compared with Dugu Feng's spirit skills, hers were garbage.
Tonight, I definitely have to find Grandfather and ask him exactly what's going on.
On the Soul Arena.
After Dugu Feng unleashed the Twelve Rays for the fourth time, Feng Ling and Feng Li's Sword Formation finally could not hold on any longer.
The force behind the Jade Phosphor Purple Poison Dugu Feng had shot out was one thing.
The key was that after dispersing, it turned into Poison Fog.
This dispersed Poison Fog was not as dense as if it had been sprayed directly from the mouth, but it was far more silent and unnoticed.
With Ning Rongrong, Feng Ling, and Feng Li's Soul Power defenses, they were simply at the poison's mercy.
With the help of the impact from the collisions, the Poison Fog had already quietly taken effect.
At that moment, Feng Ling and Feng Li could no longer control the Light Swords carrying them through the air.
The more impressive they had looked earlier, the more wretched they looked now.
The Light Swords descended crookedly, causing Feng Ling and Feng Li to tumble across the ground. Ning Rongrong also fell to the floor, with none of a fairy's grace left.
Dugu Feng, on the other hand, looked relaxed and carefree as he slowly approached the three of them.
"D-don't come any closer! We admit defeat!" Feng Li's face was flushed red, and he looked somewhat terrified.
His whole body's meridians ached, his head was dizzy, and he was already somewhat unclear-minded.
He thought Dugu Feng was going to keep attacking.
"Dugu Feng, don't go too far! If you really kill us, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect won't let you off!" Feng Ling shouted, stern in appearance but weak at heart.
The two of them had already lost their reason from the pain. This was a spirit battle—how could Dugu Feng possibly kill them?
Ning Rongrong, however, was much calmer than the two of them.
"Are you sure you don't need me to detoxify you?" Dugu Feng smiled.
Only then did the Feng Brothers react. "Detoxify us, detoxify us!" The two of them looked at Dugu Feng eagerly.
"Heh heh! Bear with it!"
Dugu Feng approached Feng Ling, extended his right hand, and the Nine-Section Emerald instantly bit Feng Ling's hand.
The Nine-Section Emerald had already grown to an adult length, about five inches long.
As a small snake, five inches was already its mature size. Coiled around his wrist, it only made a little over two loops.
Moreover, over these three months, the strength of the two Nine-Section Emeralds had improved very quickly.
Their Soul Power and Body Strength had already reached the level of a three-hundred-year Soul Beast.
It had to be said that adding them into the Pill Bead's circulation had been a wise move. It was practically cheating.
At this moment, as Soul Power circulated within the Nine-Section Emerald's body, its fangs emitted a suction force, drawing out all the toxins.
Then came Feng Li.
Finally, Dugu Feng came to Ning Rongrong's side and teased, "I'm using a snake to detoxify you. It'll hurt a little, so bear with it. Don't be scared!"
Ning Rongrong was not that afraid. Enduring her dizziness, she said bitterly, "Dugu Feng, over these past three months, I put snakes, spiders, and centipedes in my room. Now I've already overcome my fear of this kind of Soul Beast.
"Do you think I'm still the same me from three months ago?
"Bite!"
After saying that, her eyes stared fixedly at the Nine-Section Emerald. No one knew that while she had been urging the Feng Brothers to cultivate, she herself had also paid a great deal.
Others only thought she was a willful Little Princess.
But she did not think of herself that way. She wanted to rely on herself.
The Nine-Section Emerald's crimson eyes looked toward Ning Rongrong's right hand. Where had it ever seen something so white and tender?
With a smack, it bit down.
Ning Rongrong clenched her teeth hard and still watched without blinking.
She wanted to overcome her fear, and she absolutely was not just saying it.
Very soon, the detoxification was complete.
"I'll give you the stakes I lost to you as soon as possible," Ning Rongrong said coldly.
"No rush. I trust you won't go back on your word, Rongrong!"
Dugu Feng said it lightly, then walked down from the Soul Arena.
This time, Ning Rongrong, Feng Ling, and Feng Li no longer clamored for Dugu Feng to call Ning Rongrong boss. No matter how thick-skinned they were, they had lost twice now.
Words could no longer win back their dignity.
Feng Ling and Feng Li secretly glanced at Ning Rongrong, and their hearts immediately wailed. It seemed their boss still had not given up?
Ning Rongrong indeed had not given up.
The road of cultivation was long. She refused to believe Dugu Feng could keep being this powerful forever.
Since there was no possibility of defeating Dugu Feng in the short term, then she would cultivate properly for a period of time.
She would definitely make Dugu Feng submit.
Below the stage.
Wherever Dugu Feng passed, the other Students consciously made way for him, afraid they could not avoid him fast enough.
Poison always made people feel awe, especially a Poison Technique with such sharp attacks.
He saw Dugu Yan not far away. Their gazes met, and Dugu Yan swept him a cold glance, then turned and left with Ye Lingling beside her.
This Dugu Yan really did treat his branch as enemies!
What exactly had happened between his grandfather and Dugu Bo?
Dugu Feng was very curious.
He might as well go home tonight and ask his cheap father, Dugu Shuo, about the secrets from back then. Dugu Shuo treated him as the light of the family, so he would definitely tell him.
Night.
The heavy-hearted Dugu Yan returned to Dugu Manor.
She urgently wanted to ask her grandfather why Dugu Feng's soul skill was so powerful, while she could only apply two amplification soul skills in succession.
"Yan Yan, why does your complexion look so bad? Who dares bully my Yan Yan? I'll go settle accounts with them." Seeing Dugu Yan distracted and absent-minded, Dugu Bo's face was full of concern.
"Grandpa, no one bullied me. Today at school, I saw Dugu Feng again. He had a soul battle with those two boys from the Wind Sword Sect." Dugu Yan hugged Dugu Bo's arm and told him everything about the soul battle between the two sides.
At first, Dugu Bo's face was full of smiles, but immediately after, it gradually turned grave.
