The Emperor Fighting Team arrived surprisingly quickly.
The seven team members, led by two teachers, entered Suotuo City covered in dust and travel-worn.
The leading man had an ordinary appearance, looking to be in his twenties or thirties. His simple black hair was slightly long, but his eyes were exceptionally bright.
Judging solely by temperament, this was undoubtedly a young yet steady and powerful soul master.
The woman beside him wore black-framed glasses, her face gentle yet carrying a trace of seriousness. She was dressed in a simple black one-piece long skirt and was currently smiling warmly while chatting with Dugu Yan.
The other six, following behind them all, had imposing bearings, each with distinct temperaments.
Among them, the leading young man swept his gaze over the city, a thick battle intent flashing in his eyes. The steady yet terrifying aura radiating from him everywhere made people instinctively feel fear.
Ye Lingling, wearing a black veil, walked at the very back. She did not choose to walk together with her only good sister, Dugu Yan, but instead followed alone at the rear of the group.
Shen Han Yu and the Snow Empress sat on chairs outside a small shop, drinking fragrant fruit tea, their gazes calmly sweeping over the group.
Dugu Yan had previously absorbed an immortal herb, and at the same time absorbed a dragon blood herb whose effects were no less than those of an immortal herb. Her martial soul had evolved from the ordinary Jade Phosphor Snake into the top-tier beast martial soul Jade Phosphor Snake Emperor, even more powerful than Dugu Bo's. She had now broken through to the Soul King level. If nothing unexpected happened, breaking through to Title Douluo was only a matter of time.
In contrast, Yu Tianheng had innate ninth-grade soul power paired with the powerful Blue Electric Tyrant Dragon martial soul, making his talent truly outstanding. However, he ultimately could not surpass Dugu Yan, who had been strengthened by immortal herbs and soul bones. He had only barely broken through to the Soul Elder realm, with at least a ten-level gap in soul power compared to Dugu Yan.
This gap was, for Yu Tianheng, both an unbearable reality and a form of psychological blow and torment.
At the same time, this was also the biggest crack in his relationship with Dugu Yan.
The Snow Empress swept her gaze over the group, then finally landed on Ye Lingling at the back. In an instant, her Limit Douluo-level mental power completely analyzed every inch of Ye Lingling's body.
The Snow Empress had quite a deep impression of Ye Lingling, this girl who appeared small but was even colder in personality than she was. Within the origin of her martial soul and bloodline lingered a strange aura. This aura restricted the number and fate of soul masters possessing this type of martial soul. Judging by Shen Han Yu's original guess, this should be considered an ancient curse.
The Snow Empress furrowed her brows slightly, clearly recalling something.
Shen Han Yu keenly noticed the change in the Snow Empress's expression and asked with a light smile:
"Did you think of something?"
The Snow Empress nodded slightly and said:
"When I had just broken through to ten thousand years, I once heard the older generation of ferocious beasts in the Extreme North say an ancient legend. It was said that after an Evil God fell, his blood and part of his remnant soul scattered across the Douluo Continent. Some landed on soul beast bodies to transform them, while others hid in various places across the continent. Once carelessly contaminated, one might suffer pollution or a curse from the Evil God…"
Shen Han Yu nodded with interest and asked:
"And the consequences?"
The Snow Empress thought for a moment and said:
"Most soul beasts or soul masters could not bear the pollution and curse from the Evil God, and even entire races would slowly perish. Only a very small number survived, but all who did suffered extremely severe aftereffects…"
Shen Han Yu pondered for a moment, then said:
"Have you ever heard of a super soul beast called the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger?"
The Snow Empress nodded and said:
"This kind of soul beast has a lineage in the Star Dou Forest. It is said that its cultivation method relies solely on devouring. Tens of thousands of years ago, Di Tian personally led a group of ferocious beasts to exterminate them, but with little success…"
Shen Han Yu pinched the Snow Empress's slightly cool cheek and said with a smile:
"Later, come with me into the Star Dou Forest. There is a sixty-thousand-year Dark Demon Evil God Tiger there. Although the age is a bit lacking, it is more than enough to become Ah Yu's sixth soul ring…"
The Snow Empress raised her eyes slightly, somewhat puzzled, and said:
"The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's attributes don't seem suitable for Ah Yu, do they…"
Shen Han Yu shook his head with a smile and said:
"A single attribute alone is unsuitable, but the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger has a full six attributes, including the extreme evil, space, and time, these three super attributes. After absorbing the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's soul ring, Ah Yu's martial soul will very likely undergo a third evolution and officially step into the level of a super martial soul."
The Snow Empress nodded slightly, then said:
"It is feasible. Previously, the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King already alarmed the ferocious beasts of the Star Dou Forest, but our target is this kind of soul beast that Di Tian and the others deeply detest. We just need to be a little careful, and we shouldn't alarm Di Tian and the others."
Shen Han Yu smiled and nodded, then said somewhat emotionally:
"Actually, if there is a chance, I really hope to absorb the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's destiny soul ring. Three extreme attributes… what a pity…"
The Snow Empress gave Shen Han Yu a sideways glance and said:
"If you want to go courting death, I won't stop you…"
Shen Han Yu smilingly pulled the Snow Empress into his arms and said lightly with a laugh:
"You really won't stop me?"
The Snow Empress pinched the soft flesh at Shen Han Yu's waist, her humming and grumbling appearance simply unimaginably cute…
…
On the other side, in the Great Fighting Soul Arena.
Shen Liu Yu stared fixedly at Dugu Yan, standing opposite with one hand on her hip. She clenched her fist hard, producing a series of crisp cracking sounds, causing the smile at the corner of Dugu Yan's mouth to become impossible to hide.
"Oh my, oh my, what's wrong, little girl? Did big sister only spank you a few times last time? Are you still holding a grudge against big sister after so long…"
Dugu Yan said with a playful laugh. Her waist, soft and supple as if boneless, was slender and flexible. The familiar sweet and cloying scent slowly drifted through the air, filling the surroundings with a special allure for a moment.
Yu Tianheng, meanwhile, looked at the opposing Tianshui Team with blazing battle intent, electric light flickering between his fingers, clearly already impatient.
Shen Liu Yu looked at Dugu Yan, fiercely shaking her fist, and said:
"Just you wait, this old lady will definitely beat your butt swollen later, make you beg for mercy at this old lady's feet…"
Dugu Yan's slender fingers brushed across her lips as she said:
"Then big sister is really looking forward to it~."
Shui Bing'er helplessly tugged at Shen Liu Yu's hand, signaling her to be a bit more rational later.
The seven members of the Emperor Fighting Team quickly formed their formation, and the Tianshui Academy team also swiftly changed into their lineup. An invisible low pressure descended around them, and the thick, fiery battle intent almost seemed about to overturn the entire hall.
Meanwhile, on the spectator seats to the side, those present were all soul masters, or wealthy merchants, officials of Suotuo City, and their children from various industries. Qin Ming and the other leading teacher were watching the battle that could erupt at any moment with rapt attention. Not far from the entrance, the Shrek group also hurried over to watch the match…
The Snow Empress and Shen Han Yu appeared in the VIP box above, also watching all of this with interest…
