The Radiant Sacred Dragon Appears, Its Heaven-Defying Soul Ring Configuration Shocks the World, and Huo Yuhao Brings Humiliation Upon Himself!
At that moment, the net picked up a disturbance from the edge of the Star Dou Great Forest. Two presences were clashing fiercely.
He was very familiar with one of them: the fluctuations of Huo Yuhao's spiritual power, with their distinctive liveliness and resilience. The other was vicious and violent, carrying the brutal blood Qi unique to a Ten-Year Soul Beast. It was the Wind Baboon that had nearly slain a god.
Judging by the changing strength of their presences, the battle was nearly over.
Mu Sheng couldn't be bothered to listen to Qian Renxue spin any more stories. He grabbed Tang Ya by the wrist. "What I've been looking for is here. We can listen to Bibi Xue explain later."
With that, he stepped forward, his blue-and-white combat clothes snapping around him. A layer of dazzling light suddenly flared behind him as the Light Sacred Dragon Martial Soul soared into the sky.
The dragon's phantom form coiled behind him, its whole body bathed in warm golden holy light. Its eyes shone like suns, its scales and claws spread wide, and a presence of light and holiness, pure to the utmost, swept out across the heavens and earth.
Then Soul Rings rose from beneath his feet: purple, dark purple tinged with black, black, black, and black with a hint of red.
The five Soul Rings slowly circled him, each one dazzlingly bright.
Qian Renxue stared, dumbstruck. The Martial Soul's presence of light and holiness was so strong that even she found it dazzling. It could already rival his Angel Martial Soul!
The Soul Ring Configuration was even more outrageous. A purple first ring?
A dark purple second ring tinged with black? The next three were all black, and the last even had a hint of red?
What kind of monstrous configuration was that?
In the Douluo II animated world, Shrek Academy erupted in an uproar.
When Tang Ya saw the Light Sacred Dragon Martial Soul, she immediately pointed at the sky screen and shouted,
"See that?! A Radiant Sacred Dragon! Bei Bei's Martial Soul is the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon. They're not the same thing at all! Their Martial Souls are different-that's ironclad proof! He isn't Bei Bei from another world!"
She turned and tugged on Bei Bei's sleeve. "Right, Bei Bei?"
Bei Bei looked at the majestic Radiant Sacred Dragon on the sky screen. He was already beginning to believe that this really was himself from another world.
Then he looked at the configuration of those five Soul Rings. To be honest, he was green with envy.
A Radiant Sacred Dragon! The Martial Soul he had dreamed of evolving into all his life, and its Soul Ring Configuration was outrageous too. The very first ring was a thousand-year one.
But with Tang Ya saying that, Bei Bei could only grit his teeth and agree. "R-right, they're different. They definitely aren't the same person."
If he dared say they were, wouldn't the comparison make him look utterly useless?
Outside the freshman dormitory, Mu En sat in his wheelchair, gazing up at the Martial Soul on the sky screen that could not have been more familiar to him. A glimmer flashed through his cloudy old eyes.
"Radiant Sacred Dragon... That boy Mu Sheng really is Bei Bei from another spacetime."
He murmured to himself, then sighed. His gaze shifted to Bei Bei, who stood nearby beside Tang Ya with an apologetic smile, and he shook his head in frustration at his failure to live up to expectations.
"If the Bei Bei of this world were half as promising as Mu Sheng, this old man would have far less to worry about. Look at him, then look at you..."
In the Douluo I world, at Shrek Academy.
Flender craned his neck to watch the sky screen, so shocked that his glasses had gone crooked.
A Radiant Sacred Dragon, starting with a purple ring, and a Fifth Soul Ring over ninety thousand years old. He had never seen such an outrageous configuration in his life.
But as he watched, the Martial Soul suddenly began to look familiar. Flender frowned and pondered for a long while, then slapped his thigh.
"Th-this looks a little like our Martial Soul Fusion Skill, doesn't it?"
"A Radiant Sacred Dragon, a holy presence... Could this Mu Sheng be a descendant of Yu Xiaogang?"
On an imperial road in the Heaven Dou Empire, Yu Xiaogang was riding a scrawny horse when he saw Mu Sheng's Soul Ring Configuration. He tumbled off the horse, landed on his backside, and went flying two zhang away.
Ignoring the pain, he raised his head from the ground, his face full of disbelief.
"Impossible! How could a First Soul Ring be a Thousand-Year Soul Ring?! That completely defies my Martial Soul Theory! A Soul Master's body simply can't withstand the impact of a Thousand-Year Soul Ring! This is impossible!"
In the scene on the sky screen, the Fourth Soul Ring behind Mu Sheng suddenly lit up.
Golden light surged behind Mu Sheng, and a pair of enormous wings of light unfurled from his shoulder blades. Their span was over a zhang, and they were formed entirely of golden-white holy light. Fine dragon-scale patterns drifted across their surfaces, every scale slowly flowing, as though woven from the pure power of light.
Sacred Dragon Light Wings could both attack and defend. They could become a shield to block attacks or slice through enemies like sharp blades. Of all his Soul Skills, they were also the support skill best suited to long-distance flight.
Mu Sheng spread his wings of light and bent down to scoop Tang Ya into his arms. Tang Ya slipped her arms around his neck with practiced ease and even made a face at Qian Renxue.
"Your Light Butterfly Martial Soul should be able to fly, right?" Mu Sheng turned his head toward Qian Renxue and said bluntly,
"I have something to do now. You can follow me or stay here. If you follow, you'd better not interfere with anything I do. Otherwise, I won't mind killing you."
Without waiting for Qian Renxue's answer, he beat his wings of light. Golden light burst forth as he shot into the sky with Tang Ya in his arms, becoming a golden-white afterimage that sped toward Huo Yuhao. In the blink of an eye, he was no more than a point of light.
In the Douluo II animated world, the crowd beneath the sky screen erupted in an uproar.
"Wow, he was so gentle just a moment ago, and now he's suddenly so cold!"
"You don't get it. That's called being decisive when it counts! He was smiling a moment ago, then the instant he sensed his target, he changed his tune. He really knows how to act!"
"He's so cold! So handsome!" A female Soul Master cupped her cheeks, her eyes practically sparkling with stars.
Several female Soul Masters beside her chimed in. "He really is handsome! Strong and decisive, and with that holy presence of light too. He's incredible!"
"Brother Mu Sheng, kill me!"
At Shrek's freshman registration area, Huo Yuhao stood in line watching the sky screen. When he saw Mu Sheng flying in his direction, his heart jolted.
No way. Is Mu Sheng going to steal the other me's Brother Sky Dream?
He hurriedly called out in his mind, Brother Sky Dream! Brother Sky Dream! With a genius like Mu Sheng in front of him, would you from the other world still choose the other me?
The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm fell silent for a moment. He had plenty to complain about. Yuhao, why do you have to bring humiliation upon yourself?
He has a Light Sacred Dragon Martial Soul, his Mental Attribute is so strong, and his Soul Ring Configuration is outrageous beyond belief. How am I supposed to answer that?
Tian Meng weighed his words for a long time before speaking coldly. "If a genius like that, with a Mental Attribute to boot, were in front of me, I'd choose him without hesitation."
Huo Yuhao wilted, his shoulders drooping.
Seeing him like that, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm couldn't quite bear it and added,
"All right, all right, don't look so down. That's me in another world. He has nothing to do with me. Work hard, kid, and you might not be any worse than him someday."
Huo Yuhao took a deep breath and clenched his fists, his fighting spirit rekindled. "You're right, Brother Sky Dream! I'll work hard!"
In the scene on the sky screen, Qian Renxue stared in the direction Mu Sheng had vanished as a streak of light. She froze for a moment, then gritted her teeth, spread the Light Butterfly wings on her back, and took flight after him.
She was dying of curiosity. What on earth had made Mu Sheng so anxious?
