Xiao Wu VS Tang San

"Brother, is Tang San's soul ring not good?" Xiao Wu was watching the battle between Tang San and Xiao Chenyu with Lu Shiyuan.

When Tang San used Blue Silver Entanglement, she noticed the meaningful smile at the corner of Lu Shiyuan's mouth and could not help asking curiously.

Lu Shiyuan shook his head. "It's not that the soul ring is bad. He chose the wrong soul skill."

"Why? I think it's pretty strong. Blue Silver Grass is everywhere, and it can even add poison." Xiao Wu was even more confused.

"The idea of adding poison isn't exactly wrong, but think about it. His first soul ring is at most four hundred years old. How strong could the poison it adds possibly be?" Lu Shiyuan explained patiently. "Forget Soul Kings and Soul Emperors. Even against a level-thirty Soul Elder, how much effect could his poison still have?"

Especially for those with beast martial souls, Martial Soul Possession naturally gave them strong poison resistance. The effect of a mere Hundred-Year Soul Ring would be extremely limited. Once their levels rose, the effect of that soul ring would approach zero infinitely.

"Brother is right. By the time I reach level thirty, this kind of poison probably won't have any effect at all." Xiao Wu nodded thoughtfully. She was originally a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in human form. Although her poison resistance could not compare to those naturally gifted races, it was still not to be underestimated.

"Exactly. If I were Tang San, I'd choose a soul beast that could improve the toughness of Blue Silver Grass for my first soul ring. Look at his first soul skill. Even Xiao Chenyu could break through it if he put in some effort. Isn't it just wishful thinking to try trapping the two of us?"

Xiao Wu simulated it in her mind and found that Lu Shiyuan was indeed right.

Even though she did not specialize in strength, if she were bound by Blue Silver Grass of that level, she probably would not even need a second to break free.

After all, she was now cultivating the Lu Family's unique meditation method as well. Compared to the original history, her physique had improved by far more than one level.

Lu Shiyuan continued, "If the poison were added to the fourth or fifth soul ring, the threat would be different. Poison produced by a high-age thousand-year, or even Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring, would not be something even a Soul Saint dared to ignore lightly. Combined with the toughness enhancement from the first three soul rings, Tang San could then use the cultivation of a Soul Ancestor to forcibly restrain Soul Emperors and even Soul Saints."

Even if he could not restrain them completely, he could still cause his opponents enormous trouble.

Xiao Wu did not understand any of that. She simply kept nodding.

Anyway, anything Brother said had to be right.

While the two were chatting, the battle in the arena had already entered its final stage.

Xiao Chenyu had let his guard down, and the poison had already entered his meridians. His body grew heavier and heavier until Tang San finally knocked him to the ground.

This farce between the noble students and the work-study students finally came to an end.

Tang San looked down at Xiao Chenyu smugly, but the corner of his eye kept glancing toward Lu Shiyuan.

Lu Shiyuan curled his lips. It seemed he had gone too easy on him last time.

His scars had healed, and he had forgotten the pain already. Tang San thought he was capable again so soon?

Sure enough, after dealing with Xiao Chenyu, Tang San came before Lu Shiyuan.

"Lu Shiyuan, I challenge you!"

Lu Shiyuan did not even raise his eyelids. "You can't beat me."

"Last time, you only relied on your level advantage. If you have the guts, fight me again!"

"You can't beat me."

"How would you know if we don't fight? I'm a Soul Master now too. I'm no weaker than you."

"You can't beat me."

"Ahhh! Can you say something else?!"

"I've beaten you before."

Tang San: "..."

Xiao Wu laughed so hard that her stomach hurt. Lu Shiyuan's innocent expression as he said such infuriating things was simply too funny.

Only after her laughter subsided did she step in front of Lu Shiyuan and look at Tang San disdainfully. "You already lost to my brother. What nerve do you have to challenge him? If you really want to fight, let Sister Xiao Wu exchange a few moves with you!"

Tang San's chest tightened. He wanted to say that Lu Shiyuan only dared hide behind a woman, but when he recalled how miserably he had been beaten last time, he wisely kept his mouth shut.

It was fine, it was fine. A strategic retreat was not cowardice. He was simply perceptive.

Lu Shiyuan patted Xiao Wu on the shoulder. "Tang San is a level-thirteen Soul Master now. Are you confident?"

"Huh?" Xiao Wu was dumbfounded. When Tang San had fought Xiao Chenyu just now, had he not announced that he was a level-eleven Soul Master?

What a sinister villain!

But then she thought about it. Sister Xiao Wu was already level fourteen, and Lu Shiyuan sparred with her every day to teach her moves. Could she really lose to this sinister villain who had only just become a Soul Master?

"Brother, don't worry. Watch me beat him into a pig's head!"

Lu Shiyuan did not stop her. He had confidence in Xiao Wu's strength.

As long as Tang San did not use underhanded tricks like hidden weapons, it would not be difficult for Xiao Wu to win.

The Soft Bone Rabbit might not be some top-tier martial soul, but compared with Blue Silver Grass whose skill points had been allocated crookedly, it was still overwhelmingly strong.

Before its bloodline awakened, the Blue Silver Emperor was not much different from ordinary Blue Silver Grass.

"Then go." He lightly patted one of Xiao Wu's pert curves, making the little rabbit blush and her heart race. Her gaze softened, and her eyes seemed to shimmer with mist.

Yet in someone's eyes, that shy appearance looked exactly like flirtation.

Tang San was furious. From the moment he first saw Xiao Wu, he had taken a liking to this delicate and adorable little girl.

How could he not be angry when he saw Lu Shiyuan openly taking liberties with Xiao Wu in public?

Lu Shiyuan secretly grinned. Getting angry was exactly right.

He had done it on purpose.

Lu Shiyuan wanted to provoke Tang San. An enemy consumed by rage and unable to think clearly was far easier to deal with than a calm one.

"Tang San, this is only a spar between classmates. You won't use those underhanded weapons, will you?" Lu Shiyuan felt the fire was not burning hot enough, so he deliberately added a few more words.

"You don't need to tell me! It's not like I'm some sinister villain!"

Xiao Wu curled her lips.

Right, right. You weren't some sinister villain. You just wanted to kill people at the drop of a hat.

So many excuses!

The two soon arrived at the spot where Tang San and Xiao Chenyu had fought earlier, while Lu Shiyuan temporarily took on the role of referee.

If Tang San showed any ill intentions, he could act immediately.

At his command, Xiao Wu shot forward like an arrow released from a bow.

Tang San's gaze sharpened, and Blue Silver Entanglement activated instantly.

Several Blue Silver Grass vines lashed out like long whips, blocking Xiao Wu's path forward.

Not only that, relying on his extensive combat experience, Tang San had already predicted and sealed off the places where he believed Xiao Wu might move.

As long as Xiao Wu stepped there, the dense Blue Silver Grass would instantly bind her into a dumpling.

Considering that the Blue Silver Grass summoned by his martial soul counted as an extension of Tang San's body, his heart could not help fluttering at the thought.

Xiao Wu seemed entirely unaware and charged straight toward the Blue Silver Grass blockade ahead.

Just as everyone thought Xiao Wu would surely crash into the trap, something unexpected happened.
