Lu Qian Battles Dai Mubai!

Then Dai Mubai's golden hair instantly turned black and white. White occupied most of it, but the few black locks stood out sharply.

Four faint lines appeared on his forehead at the same time, three horizontal and one vertical, forming the character for "king."

But the greatest change was in Dai Mubai's hands, which swelled to fully three times their original size, white fur covering his entire palms.

As his fingers flexed, claws like short daggers kept extending from his hands and retracting.

Each claw was like a blade, seven or eight inches long, gleaming with an eerie, cold light.

Dai Mubai slowly leaned his upper body forward. All four pupils in his two eyes turned a deep blue, making him seem like a killing machine.

Finally, three shining Soul Rings rose in succession from beneath his feet, swiftly ascending-two yellow and one purple. As the Soul Rings revolved, surging Soul Power bore down like towering waves.

Although Lu Qian appeared calm and unruffled, he was deeply surprised. The White Tiger Martial Soul truly was one of the most powerful Beast Martial Souls. Its sheer presence alone was beyond what other Beast Martial Souls could match.

And although Dai Mubai spent his days frequenting brothels, his strength could not be underestimated.

"Dai Mubai. Martial Soul: White Tiger. Rank thirty-six Battle Soul Elder. Please show me your skills."

Amid his raging aura, Dai Mubai announced his Martial Soul and rank. Among Soul Masters, this signified a formal challenge.

With that, Lu Qian had no reason to refuse.

But Lu Qian truly was in a bit of a bind. Using his Seven Kill Divine Sword Martial Soul risked exposing his Twin Martial Souls.

Yet if he used his unawakened Sky-Covering Blue Silver Emperor, Lu Qian really was somewhat unsure of himself, because it simply could not deliver the crushing victory he had imagined.

However, during those few seconds of Lu Qian's indecision, Zhu Zhuqing suddenly released his hand.

Then Zhu Zhuqing actually stepped directly in front of Lu Qian and released her own Martial Soul-the Hell Spirit Cat!

Cat ears, a beast's tail!

Those were the first things Lu Qian noticed!

"Zhu Zhuqing. Martial Soul: Hell Spirit Cat. Rank twenty-seven Battle Soul Master. Please show me your skills!"

But Lu Qian had not quite expected Zhu Zhuqing to go so far as to choose to fight Dai Mubai herself.

Perhaps she simply wanted to bring things with Dai Mubai to a close, but to Dai Mubai, this was practically putting a cuckold's green hat on his head in plain sight!

"Just for this bastard, you want to challenge me without knowing your own limits?!"

Dai Mubai's tone was utterly furious.

What man could accept his prospective fiancée helping his adversary fight against him?

"This is between you and me. It has nothing to do with anyone else."

Zhu Zhuqing responded coldly.

"Fine! Fine!"

Dai Mubai was so furious that he laughed. In the end, he still fixed his gaze on Lu Qian and snarled at him:

"If you're a man, get the hell out here and fight! Beat me, and she's yours!"

"Dai Mubai!"

Zhu Zhuqing's voice had a touch of frenzy.

"What do you take me for? A wager?"

A trail of clear tears fell uncontrollably down Zhu Zhuqing's cheek. Lu Qian's heart ached a little, and he stepped straight in front of her.

"Let me handle this myself. Thank you."

Then Lu Qian swiftly released his Sky-Covering Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul. In its unawakened state, the Sky-Covering Blue Silver Emperor really was just an ordinary stalk of Blue Silver Grass.

But to distinguish it from Tang San's Blue Silver Grass, Lu Qian had changed his own Blue Silver Grass to purple and gold. Rings of pale golden markings adorned the purple Blue Silver Grass, giving it an imposing look!

As a burst of milky-white light surged out of Lu Qian's body, more than a dozen thick vines circled him like great snakes.

Yet even so, when the two were compared, whether in presence or outward impressiveness, Lu Qian was utterly outclassed by Dai Mubai.

Although Lu Qian himself found it extremely awkward, he still said solemnly:

"Lu Qian. Martial Soul: Blue Silver Grass. Rank thirty-five Tool Soul Elder. Please show me your skills!"

As for how to defeat Dai Mubai with Blue Silver Grass, Lu Qian already knew Tang San's tactics by heart, so winning should not be a problem. He merely felt it would be a little slow.

"Blue Silver Grass?"

Dai Mubai said this with a frown, a trace of disdain on his face.

Even Zhu Zhuqing, standing behind Lu Qian, could not help saying:

"Leave it to me."

Ma Hongjun, seeing Lu Qian's Martial Soul for the first time, was even more worried. He immediately released his Evil Fire Phoenix Martial Soul, stood beside Lu Qian, and said quietly to Dai Mubai:

"Boss Dai, let's just leave this matter here."

"Ma Hongjun, are you that eager to be his dog?!"

Dai Mubai let out a low roar.

At that moment, Dai Mubai felt utterly defeated!

Ma Hongjun was his classmate!

Zhu Zhuqing was his prospective fiancée!

Yet now, both Ma Hongjun and Zhu Zhuqing were actually backing up his sworn enemy, Lu Qian!

How the fuck was Dai Mubai supposed to swallow this insult?

"Fine, very good. You're all helping him, are you?! A guy with a trash Martial Soul like this!"

Dai Mubai could barely hold himself back from attacking. Ma Hongjun and Zhu Zhuqing were also ready to block his attack for Lu Qian.

Lu Qian, however, said rather helplessly:

"Everyone, move aside!"

"Dai Mubai, today I'll show you what it means when people say there are no trash Martial Souls, only trash Soul Masters!"

Although Lu Qian had always thought that saying was bullshit, nothing could have been more fitting for showing off right now!

As he spoke, Lu Qian struck first.

"First Soul Skill, Entanglement!"

The Soul Skills Lu Qian had exchanged for his Sky-Covering Blue Silver Emperor were basically the same as Tang San's.

They would just be a hundred million tiny bits different when unleashed after his Sky-Covering Blue Silver Emperor awakened.

For example, Lu Qian had given the awakened effect of Blue Silver Grass's first Soul Skill, Entanglement, an entirely new name-Tree World Advent!

"Hmph!"

Even faced with more than a dozen Blue Silver vines rushing toward him, Dai Mubai paid them no mind. Rather than retreat, he advanced, actually intending to step directly on Lu Qian's Blue Silver vines to attack him!

But how could Lu Qian give him that chance? The dozen or so Blue Silver vines instantly shot toward Dai Mubai's body, wrapping him up almost in an instant.

But Dai Mubai's claws were no pushovers either. With just a few light swipes, he severed four or five of Lu Qian's vines.

"Bind!"

Lu Qian barked, and the Blue Silver vines already coiled around Dai Mubai began growing rapidly, attempting to strangle him to death!
