Lu Xuan's Practical Combat Training Plan! The Asura God Takes Notice and Wants to Poach Him!

Leng Yaozhu felt an inexplicable thrill at nurturing his growth.

A trace of gratification flashed through her eyes, but she soon reined in her smile and said seriously, "Xiao Xuan, you've already broken through to level 33.

"But without practical combat ability to match, you'll be at a terrible disadvantage in a real fight to the death!"

Leng Yaozhu frowned slightly.

She swiftly considered how to make up for Lu Xuan's lack of combat experience.

Originally, she could have had Dugu Yan serve as his sparring partner, but that clearly would no longer work.

Dugu Yan was only in her teens in terms of level, and Lu Xuan's Martial Soul was a natural counter to hers.

Now Lu Xuan had even acquired an absurdly invincible skill like Solar Prominence Illusory Body.

The gap in their combat strength had already become a vast chasm.

He needs intense battles against opponents at his level, or even stronger, to push him to his limits, expose his weaknesses, and prescribe the right remedy!

Leng Yaozhu silently worked out her plans.

Soon, a place filled with bloodshed and uproar came to mind.

The Great Soul Arena!

In this era.

It was undoubtedly the best killing ground for honing practical combat skills and encountering all sorts of bizarre Martial Souls.

Leng Yaozhu recalled her own past.

She, too, had fought countless blood-soaked battles in similar places.

She knew just how dramatically the pressure of dancing on a knife's edge could improve one's combat ability.

But at that thought, deep regret flashed through Leng Yaozhu's eyes.

Actually, there was another place several times more effective than the Great Soul Arena.

The "Spirit Ascension Platform" from her era!

There, one could perfectly simulate the most realistic wilderness survival conditions.

One could also fight Soul Beasts and Soul Masters to the death without any reservations.

Most importantly...

Even if one was torn to shreds.

One's body in reality would suffer no actual harm. It was simply the perfect training ground.

"Ah, the tragedy of the times..."

Leng Yaozhu could not help shaking her head with a soft sigh.

Even with the concept of the Spirit Ascension Platform in her mind, recreating it in this era was a fantasy out of the Arabian Nights.

One person's strength and energy were limited, after all.

Besides, such things were not her forte.

Combat was her forte!

Setting aside her regret, Leng Yaozhu looked at Lu Xuan and said gravely:

"Xiao Xuan, for the coming period, your cultivation needs to shift entirely toward practical combat training."

"Without extensive combat experience and fighting instincts, no matter how heaven-defying your skills are, you'll still

"Be nothing but a brute who relies on raw strength to work miracles and throws skills around at random!"

"Then how should I improve, Sis?"

Lu Xuan put aside his smug delight over acquiring a new Soul Skill and asked humbly.

"I'll first teach you a movement technique, along with combat techniques."

"Once you've learned them, we'll head to the Great Soul Arena and hone your skills through soul battles!"

Leng Yaozhu laid out the plan methodically.

"A movement technique? Wouldn't 'Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track' from the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record work?" Lu Xuan scratched his head in confusion.

"Don't learn that! That kind of movement technique doesn't suit us at all!"

Leng Yaozhu's tone carried unquestionable resolve!

"We can fly. The sky is our home turf!"

"What I'm going to teach you is a movement technique tailored to our flight abilities, letting us execute extreme evasions and advances in midair!"

At this point, Leng Yaozhu secretly felt delighted.

At last, she had a chance to impart everything she knew!

Afterward, Leng Yaozhu flew back with Lu Xuan to the valley containing the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

The energy of heaven and earth was exceptionally abundant here.

Spending long periods here on intensive physical conditioning and movement training would greatly benefit bodily recovery and the awakening of latent potential.

Besides, there was a subordinate here who could be on standby at any moment.

Meanwhile, in the Divine Realm.

The Asura God Temple.

It was a majestic hall shrouded in an endless aura of slaughter.

On the divine throne at the far end of the hall, fashioned from the bones of an unknown colossal beast and dark-gold divine iron.

Sat an imposing man clad in dark-red armor patterned with demonic markings.

His blood-red eyes, which seemed capable of piercing through everything, gazed idly down at the Douluo Continent in the lower realm through the floating water screen before him.

More precisely, he was observing the test subject he had casually snatched from another lower plane and fused into an infant's body.

That's right, it was our pure-as-ice, spotless-as-jade God King Tang!

Yet in the very next instant, the Asura God's expression, as unruffled as an ancient well for ten thousand years, abruptly changed.

In the brief moment he had spaced out.

Someone had dared pull a little trick right under his nose?!

He would see just who had such nerve!

"Hm? It's actually that fellow, the Fire God?!"

From the faint traces of aura left behind, he identified the deity responsible.

As one of the Five Great God Kings of the God Realm Committee.

He bore the heavy responsibility of upholding the Divine Realm's rules and overseeing its gods.

"Deities must not interfere with the lower realms without authorization. That's an ironclad law of the Divine Realm!"

"Fire God, I've finally caught you slipping!" The Asura God snorted coldly.

His eyes narrowed slightly, a hint of calculation lurking within them.

Although, in his own search for a successor.

He had also done plenty of things that violated the Divine Realm's rules.

But... he was the Divine Realm's law enforcer!

That made it different, after all.

Heh, double standards were the whole point.

Besides, the Fire God did not serve under any of the God Kings.

A powerful troublemaker like him, who acted alone and refused to be controlled.

Would be the biggest headache if he ever stirred up trouble.

So he had to take a good look at what this fellow was doing!

It was all perfectly reasonable!

He certainly was not a committee member who enjoyed making life difficult for other deities!

The Asura God kept hypnotizing himself.

And so.

Taking advantage of the moment after the Fire God withdrew his gaze and stopped watching the lower realm.

He followed the trail of the divine sense the Fire God had previously cast down.

And fixed his gaze on a child.

"Ultimate fire? A Three-Legged Golden Crow Martial Soul?

"No wonder that fellow, the Fire God, is paying him so much attention, even breaking the rules to cast his gaze down..."

The next second, his pupils abruptly contracted, and he shot up from his divine throne!

"Wait! Is that... the Asura Sword?!"

The Asura God was utterly stunned.

He stared fixedly at the dark-red longsword within Lu Xuan, which had yet to receive a single Soul Ring but already radiated a pure aura of slaughter.

Even his breathing grew heavier.

After the shock came wild elation.

"Perfect. Absolutely perfect!"

At that moment, the Asura God's heart, dormant for countless years, began pounding fiercely.

An utterly shameless thought instantly rose in his mind.

He was going to poach this promising seedling!

No, wait!

The Fire God had not bestowed a divine trial yet. How could that count as poaching?

Clearly... here was a genius in the wild who wanted to come home with him!

A certain God King's shameless chuckle echoed through the Asura God Temple.

Fire God: Fuck your mother!!!!!

Meanwhile, at the other end of the Divine Realm.

Inside the Fire God Palace.

The Fire God suddenly let out a loud sneeze.

"What the hell? Why do I feel like something has set its sights on me?"

He looked around.

Soon, he shook his head.

"I must be overthinking it!"

He was one of the Seven Elemental Gods!

A mighty First-Level God who commanded the origin of fire!

Who in the Divine Realm would dare spy on him?

Not even those five God Kings could do that!
