What?
Everyone looked on in astonishment.
"Why?"
" Xuan Zi, we finally captured Dai Lingfeng! I'm absolutely confident I can defeat him!"
Ma Xiaotao was extremely dissatisfied.
She hasn't even started the match, how could she have lost already?
Xuan Zi is definitely pulling strings behind the scenes!
With such a significant difference in cultivation level, she could definitely capture Dai Lingfeng in a head-on confrontation!
This will definitely determine the winner.
But it wasn't her who lost; it was Dai Lingfeng who lost!
Dai Lingfeng remained crouched in the shadows.
Finally out!
What a great opportunity to defeat Dai Lingfeng! Why was she declared the loser?
" Dai Lingfeng, tell her what the effect of your Soul Skill is."
Xuan Zi ignored Ma Xiaotao.
"Yes, Xuan Zi."
"My fourth Soul Skill, Hell Mark, has the effect of rendering the marked target immune to all defenses against me."
" Ma Xiaotao was marked by me, and under my attack, she's no different from a vulnerable ordinary person."
"My Hell Stab might miss Huo Yuhao, but if it hits Ma Xiaotao, the effect will be no different than a hot knife slicing through butter."
Dai Lingfeng explained.
If Ma Xiaotao ignores him, his Hell Stab might be hindered by the Ice Emperor's Protection if it hits Huo Yuhao.
But fate has other plans for Ma Xiaotao.
That's like a hot knife gliding smoothly through butter, cutting it in one silky cut!
"Impossible!"
Ma Xiaotao screamed.
Such Soul Skill is impossible!
Losing all defenses, wouldn't that mean she was completely at Dai Lingfeng's mercy?
hiss!
A chill instantly rose from the soles of Ma Xiaotao's feet to the top of her head.
Only then did she belatedly realize what was happening.
If Xuan Zi hadn't made a move,
If she confronts Dai Lingfeng head-on
Wouldn't her prized physique be as fragile as paper in front of Dai Lingfeng?
It will be cleaved in two with a single blow!
If this were a life-or-death struggle... the consequences would be unimaginable!
A feeling of lingering fear instantly welled up in Ma Xiaotao's heart.
Dai Lingfeng could kill her so easily!
"Hmph, now you know why."
" Ma Xiaotao, I told you long ago not to be so impulsive and reckless."
"Your Evil Fire Phoenix is indeed domineering,"
"But the effects of Soul Master's Soul Skill are incredibly diverse; there's bound to be one that counters Soul Skill,"
"You're going to suffer a great loss against such a Soul Skill."
"Even after being flagged, you still didn't take it seriously, and your arrogance led to your failure."
" Dai Lingfeng's Hell Mark is powerful and domineering, but it can't last forever. If you can stay calm and wait for the Hell Mark's effect to disappear, you might be the ones who win."
"You should reflect on this carefully."
Xuan Zi scolded him impatiently.
This Ma Xiaotao is used to being domineering and arrogant.
Little did they know the saying "there are always people more capable than you"; their reckless actions in the face of unknown consequences made their failure all the more deserved.
"Yes..."
Ma Xiaotao's face turned pale, and she lowered her head dejectedly.
It's definitely her fault.
She was unaware of the effects of Dai Lingfeng's Soul Skill and didn't take the mark seriously, which led to her defeat.
But now,
Everyone knows that Dai Lingfeng's Hell Mark is incredibly powerful; the outcome of another match is still uncertain.
Huo Yuhao and the others remained silent.
Especially Huo Yuhao,
I never expected that claw mark to have such a powerful effect, ignoring all defenses!
This is simply a divine skill for Agility Attack System Soul Master!
Facing Dai Lingfeng,
No one wanted to be marked, and those who weren't Hell Mark felt a sense of relief, as if they had escaped a calamity.
"Alright, that's enough for now, let's dismiss for now."
Xuan Zi waved his hand.
His purpose in organizing the mixed civil war was to find out the strengths of all the members.
But with Dai Lingfeng around...
This goal is difficult to achieve, but it would be good to suppress and discipline Ma Xiaotao's overly impulsive personality.
"Yes, Xuan Zi."
The group dispersed.
Dai Lingfeng naturally returned to his Golden Ancient Tree.
Time is running out.
He needed to seize every second and absorb as much energy as possible from the Golden Ancient Tree.
"Your Highness!"
Dai Yueheng caught up with them.
"Big brother, is there something you need?"
Dai Lingfeng stopped in his tracks.
Dai Yueheng was also on Sea God Island, and the two had a close relationship in private.
However, Dai Yueheng wouldn't waste his cultivation time; he only came to see him when he had a reason.
"There is indeed something going on."
Dai Yueheng sensed his surroundings to make sure no one was listening through the walls before speaking:
"Your Highness, I have some suggestions regarding Huo Yuhao. Please listen to them."
Dai Yueheng looked conflicted and hesitant, but gritted his teeth and said...
" Huo Yuhao?"
"Okay, go ahead and say it."
Dai Lingfeng became interested. Was this Dai Yueheng trying to talk to him about Huo Yuhao?
That's quite unusual.
"Your Highness, times have changed."
" Huo Yuhao used to be just a piece of trash, not worth mentioning."
"But now, he is a super genius with both Body Martial Soul and Ultimate Martial Soul!"
I think there's some misunderstanding between you!
"That's what my father thinks too,"
"Father's intention is for Huo Yuhao to be recognized as part of the family."
"With Huo Yuhao's strength, he is indeed qualified to be your younger brother. After all, he is your own brother, your flesh and blood."
"Once the barriers are broken down, he will definitely become a great help to you!"
Dai Yueheng said somewhat awkwardly.
To summarize in one sentence
The White Tiger Duke's Mansion is dreaming!
I want them all: the Hell White Tiger Dai Lingfeng, and the Ultimate Ice Body Martial Soul Huo Yuhao!
"That family is certainly greedy."
Don't you know the saying that you can't have your cake and eat it too?
Dai Lingfeng said with a smile.
"Your Highness, your father is also facing difficulties."
Please understand.
"It's truly a misfortune for the White Tiger Lineage to have such a disgraceful affair as Dai Huabin."
"If Huo Yuhao could return to the family at this time, it would be a tremendous joy for the family."
Another aspect is that Dai Huabin's murder of his mother put a lot of pressure on the White Tiger Duke's Mansion.
The White Tiger Lineage urgently needs relief.
The existence of Huo Yuhao is a pleasant surprise.
No one expected that the once useless person, the one who shouted "Thirty years in Henan, thirty years in Hebei,"
He has actually transformed into a genius with both Body Martial Soul and the Ultimate Ice Twin Martial Souls soul!
How could such a genius be left to wander far from home?
If we could join forces with Dai Lingfeng, that would be the best outcome.
but,
The most crucial issue in this matter is the rift between the two brothers.
The White Tiger Lineage was prepared for this.
"Your Highness, there's a misunderstanding between you and Huo Yuhao."
"That beast Dai Huabin is just being unreasonable!"
"He actually did such a disgraceful thing, defecting, so they might as well pin all the blame on him!"
" Dai Huabin was the one who did all the evil deeds,"
"If you two brothers can overcome your differences, you'll definitely be able to reconcile."
Dai Yueheng advised.
Although he and Dai Huabin are brothers from the same parents,
But after the Duchess's incident,
He hated Dai Huabin to the core!
They were willing to sacrifice Dai Huabin's reputation to allow Dai Lingfeng and Huo Yuhao to reconcile.
It couldn't be more cost-effective!
