Summoning the Five Tiger Generals

In the end, he still needed to achieve a fusion of two gods to take down Bibi Dong and her daughter.

Divine Position: Evil God

Rank: God King

Detailed Description: Those favored by the gods will obtain Evil God's Wings and the Eye of Reincarnation. After becoming a god, they can wield Evil God's Divine Power!

Divine Position: God of Slaughter

Rank: God King

Detailed Description: Those favored by the gods will obtain the God-Slaying Blade. After becoming a god, they can wield God-Slaying Divine Power, truly slaying gods who stood in their way and Buddhas who blocked their path!

Just reading the descriptions sounded incredible. Zhang Nan said decisively, "These two!"

Ding, system fusion in progress...

1%...

The moment the system's voice faded, Zhang Nan involuntarily cried out.

Fuck? What was going on?

A sudden, bone-deep pain erupted from within his body, forcing him to brace himself against a nearby tree trunk. He nearly could not stay on his feet, but fortunately, it only lasted a moment.

After golden light enveloped Zhang Nan, the pain vanished instantly.

What replaced it was an incomparably comfortable sensation.

"Host, extend your right hand!"

Zhang Nan instinctively opened his palm. As the golden light throughout his body gathered, a rectangular sword case radiating green light appeared in his hand in an instant.

Creak!

The semicircular sword case slowly opened. Scarlet, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple... red... brown... Thirteen blades of different colors and shapes were neatly arranged inside.

"Host, extend your left hand!"

Roar!

Green light gathered in his left hand, forming a massive black panther that appeared above Zhang Nan's head as an imposing phantom.

Before Zhang Nan could even open his eyes, a pair of black wings miraculously sprouted from his back. The instant they unfurled, the surrounding air exploded, and a scarlet-black sword overflowing with killing intent, as though it had just been summoned from hell—

Hovered in the air.

These were Evil God's Wings and Slayer God's Sword.

Zhang Nan withdrew his divine abilities. When he opened his eyes, his red and purple pupils gradually returned to normal.

A dual divine-favored system, Twin Martial Souls, the God-Slaying Blade, and the Eye of Reincarnation... If he was not invincible, then who was? If he was not awesome, then who was?

"Tsk, tsk, it still comes down to my sharp eye. If I had given these to someone else, they probably would have scrambled to become a river god long ago!"

The subtle changes in his body made Zhang Nan grin broadly.

"Host, would you like to summon the Five Tiger Generals?"

"Summon them!"

Zhang Nan hurriedly nodded. In his excitement, he had nearly forgotten about this. As the saying went, one more person meant one more helping hand, not to mention the renowned Five Tiger Generals.

"Fight through a hundred lifetimes of reincarnation once more!"

Voices resembling those of the Five Tiger Generals from Honor of Kings rang out as five enormous figures emerged from the halo before Zhang Nan.

Before Zhang Nan could clearly see their faces, the five men simultaneously clasped their fists and dropped to one knee, speaking respectfully in unison:

"Zhao Zilong of Changshan, Zhang Yide of Yan, Guan Yunchang, the Martial Saint, Ma Chao of Western Liang, and Veteran Huang Zhong pay respects to our lord!"

My lord? Did they take me for Liu Bei?

That narrow-minded brat Liu Bei cried all day long. In his battle against Jiangdong and Sun Quan, he had utterly ruined a winning hand. How could he possibly be mentioned in the same breath as someone like me, a man of ambition and lofty aspirations?

Zhang Nan said helplessly, "Uh... call me something else!"

After the Five Tiger Generals exchanged glances, they said in unison:

"Greetings, Young Master!"

Young Master? Like that useless Adou? No need for that.

"Get up. From now on, call me Sect Master. Report your strengths so this Sect Master can have a look!"

Zhao Yun had a fair, beardless face, a majestic bearing, and an imposing presence. Zhang Fei had a leopard-like head, round eyes, a swallow jaw, and tiger whiskers, his momentum like thunder.

Guan Yu's sideburns were two feet long, his face resembled a ripe date, and he radiated overwhelming dominance.

Ma Chao wore a jade crown over his fair face, his eyes like shooting stars, his aura chilling.

Veteran Huang Zhong was somewhat older, but the aura he exuded was not weaker than that of the other four. If anything, it was slightly stronger.

Although all five Tiger Generals stood around six feet three inches tall, making them seem utterly out of place beside the still-growing Zhang Nan, who was just over five feet tall, their master-servant relationship was clear. Even if the five were towering giants, they still had to lower their heads and speak respectfully.

"As you command!!"

After the Five Tiger Generals rose at the same time, soul rings bloomed one after another.

They were dazzling.

"This subordinate, Zhao Yun, is a level 95 Peerless Douluo, titled Dragon's Gallbladder. I am an assault-type Martial Soul Master, and my soul weapon is the Silver Dragon Spear!"

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Soul rings lit up one after another.

Purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black, red, red.

"Zhang Yide of Yan. Sect Master may call me Zhang Fei. I am a level 92 Title Douluo, titled Tiger Soul. I possess Twin Martial Souls: the soul beast Red-backed Scarlet Ape and the weapon soul Snake Lance!"

Soul rings: purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black, black, red.

"This subordinate, Guan Yu, is a level 94 Peak Douluo, titled Martial Saint. I possess Twin Martial Souls: the beast soul Red Hare Thousand-Mile and the weapon soul Green Dragon Crescent Blade!"

Soul rings: purple, purple, black, black, black, black, red, red, red.

"This subordinate, Ma Chao, is a level 93 Peak Douluo, titled Divine Might. I am an agility-type Martial Soul Master, and my weapon soul is the Spear of Cold Radiance!"

Soul rings: purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black, red, red.

"Veteran Huang Zhong is a level 96 Peerless Douluo, titled Blazing Soul. I am a long-range attack-type Martial Soul Master, and my weapon soul is the Blazing Divine Bow!"

Soul rings: purple, purple, black, black, black, black, red, red, red.

Holy shit, did they have to be this overpowered?

Purple represented Thousand-Year Soul Rings, black represented Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Rings, and red represented Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Rings.

There were only a handful of Title Douluo in all of Douluo Continent, and those who possessed Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Rings could be counted on one hand.

Yet the Five Tiger Generals were all Title Douluo, Peak Douluo, or Peerless Douluo. Their weakest soul rings were all at least a thousand years old, while Guan Yu and Huang Zhong each possessed three Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Rings.

Even his subordinates possessed Twin Martial Souls?

This was simply heaven-defying.

"Host, are you satisfied with this beginner's gift pack from the system?" the system asked smugly.

"Satisfied, satisfied, of course I'm satisfied!"

Was that not obvious? Zhang Nan was practically blooming with joy. He nodded repeatedly. He had expected the Five Tiger Generals to be strong, but he had never imagined they would be this absurdly powerful.

Spirit Hall, Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and Clear Sky Sect—how many Title Douluo with Hundred-Thousand-Year Martial Souls did those three super sects possess? His side already had five. Once his sect was established, there would be no need to develop cautiously.

They could just start the battle.

Requesting assembly. Launching the attack!

"You little bastard, wait for me in Holy Soul Village. I'm coming for your life right now. Forget Tang Hao protecting you—even if the entire Clear Sky Sect protected you, I'd take them all on!"

Zhang Nan had long memorized every plot point and timeline in Douluo Continent. If he had guessed correctly, tomorrow would be the day the blind Douluo Su Yuntao awakened that little bastard's Martial Soul.

He had to reach Holy Soul Village tonight.

It was already noon.

Zhang Nan examined the map and discovered that he was currently in the safe zone on the outskirts of Star Dou Great Forest, at the border between Heaven Dou Empire and Star Luo Empire. Soul beasts appeared here relatively infrequently.

Holy Soul Village was in Fasno Province. It was neither particularly far nor particularly close. With Evil God's Wings and the Five Tiger Generals, they should be able to get there before dusk.

Set off!!!

Zhang Nan put away the system map and led the Five Tiger Generals toward their destination under the system's navigation.

The system's voice suddenly rang out.

"Ding, a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast has been detected. It is approaching this location..."
