Douluo: Martial Soul Research Diary

Chapter 195 Blue Silver Cage
"Tang San, how's the spirit ring acquisition going?"

Inside Shrek Academy, Yu Xiaogang looked at his disciples with a calm and collected expression.

"As you instructed. And, quite lucky!"

"The second spirit ring actually came from Gu Zhu, who is at the thousand-year level, and whose spirit skills are much stronger than Han Tao's!"

Even across the entire Douluo Continent, there is no other thousand-year-old Guzhu. In terms of rarity, it can be called the most rare in Douluo!

However, if the growth base is not increased, then it is not increased, even for those born under the lucky star.

"Rarity and age do not equate to strength!"

With a wave of his hand, Tang San released the Blue Silver Grass, and his second purple spirit ring instantly lit up.

The vines, stems, and leaves of the Blue Silver Grass extend in five directions, coiling and knotting to form a bamboo-like shape.

"Hmm!" The master nodded in satisfaction.

"In this way, you will be able to surpass Han Tao in every aspect."

He turned his head to look at Oscar, Ma Hongjun, and Zhu Zhuqing, and pointed to the soul skill effect of the Blue Silver Bamboo.

His expression was calm, yet it radiated absolute confidence:
"Under my tutelage, Tang San's Blue Silver Grass will surely become the strongest martial soul on the Douluo Continent!"

With a soul ring configuration that surpasses Han Tao's in every aspect, Yu Xiaogang naturally has the same confidence in evolving a useless martial soul into a high-level one.

So he continued to ask Tang San, "Where's the third spirit ring?"

Upon hearing the master's question, Tang San smiled broadly, and with a surge of emotion, he summoned the last two spirit rings of his martial soul.

"A ten-thousand-year-old soul ring?"

Yu Xiaogang asked in surprise, "You've broken through to the Soul Master level?"

On the Blue Silver Grass, two ten-thousand-year-old black soul rings shimmered with a deep, eerie light!
Tang San nodded, seemingly tainted by the master's arrogance, and spoke with a haughty expression:
"At the edge of Sunset Forest, I encountered a 9000-year-old Azure Phosphorus Serpent and a 30000-year-old Azure Phosphorus Serpent King!"

"Logically speaking, absorbing a 9000-year-old Azure Phosphorous Serpent is extremely difficult."

Oscar asked curiously, "How did you do that?"

Tang San laughed several times.

He then explained his brilliant move: "The Jade Phosphorus Serpent King happens to be the mother of the Jade Phosphorus Serpent."

"So I had Master Liu Erlong capture that 9000-year-old Azure Phosphorous Serpent and force the Azure Phosphorous Serpent King to sacrifice it!"

"I promised it that I would not harm its son as long as it offered itself as a sacrifice."

Oscar, still eager for more, asked, "And then?"

"Unexpectedly, after absorbing the spirit ring of the Azure Phosphorous Serpent King, I was able to break through to the Soul Master level by using the spirit power granted by the spirit ring!"

"so."

"I'm missing another spirit ring!"

Tang San spread his hands and smiled helplessly.

He slowly walked to the master's side, his tone kind: "Master, you are right!"

"If a Soul Master wants to absorb a Soul Ring beyond their limits, they can force a Soul Beast to sacrifice itself. Look at this 30,000-year-old Jade Phosphorous Serpent King Soul Ring!"

As he spoke, Tang San revealed his third spirit ring, a dark and deep one.

"Blue silver entanglement!"

Yes, it's blue and silver again.

Rather than saying that the Jade Phosphorous Serpent King gave this soul skill, it would be more accurate to say that he actively chose this soul skill.

The blue and silver swirling around it was like Tang San's innate soul skill, making it exceptionally easy to wield.

"Soul Skill Effect"

"It conjures the form of a jade serpent, coils around the enemy, and binds them to the spot."

At the same time, the neurotoxin of the Azure Phosphorus property paralyzes the enemy's movements, making it far more powerful than the original "Blue Silver Entanglement." Hearing of such a powerful soul skill, the master was deeply moved, his words filled with joy:

"Tang San, I was right, wasn't I? Animal spirit rings are indeed the best match for Blue Silver Grass."

"This blue silver entanglement is far more powerful than Han Tao's so-called poison barrier!"

Zhu Zhuqing stared intently at Tang San's fourth spirit ring, her expression filled with surprise and uncertainty, and asked:

"Third Brother, what is your fourth spirit ring?"

Tang San casually replied, "Of course it's its son's!"

Then, ignoring Zhu Zhuqing, he stretched out his arms and sincerely took the master's hand, his tone solemn and earnest:
"Master, your theory is absolutely correct!"

"Absorbing a spirit ring from the same spirit beast will simultaneously strengthen both spirit rings. After absorbing the Azure Phosphorous Serpent spirit ring..."

"This 9000-year-old Azure Phosphorous Serpent has indeed transformed into a 10,000-year-old Soul Ring!"

"The soul skill is Blue Silver Entanglement! Although it is also Blue Silver Entanglement, if the two soul rings are used simultaneously, it will create a qualitative change, transforming from soft to hard, and from loose to tight!"

"Therefore, I named this brand-new, powerful soul skill [Blue Silver Cage]."

In the original novel, Tang San killed the Ten Thousand Years Old Cave Demon Plant and easily obtained the [Blue Silver Prison] soul skill.

However, objective conditions cannot be ignored:
Before acquiring this soul skill, Tang San first consumed two immortal herbs: the Fiery Apricot and the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass.
Meanwhile, the third spirit ring is the Human-Faced Demon Spider, a thousand-year-old spirit ring of the same series, and has the additional benefits of the Eight Spider Lances.

Finally, there's the added benefit of the Blue Silver Emperor bloodline.
At present, he only has two ten-thousand-year soul rings, and with the unique soul skill combination, he was able to obtain the same [Blue Silver Cage].

"Not bad, not bad," the master nodded in satisfaction.

Tang San followed its advice and proceeded perfectly along its predetermined route: Control!
"Animal-type spirit rings, control-type, are the answer for this version!"

The Great Soul Master's eyes were exceptionally firm.

True confidence, which comes from within, stems from a solid theoretical foundation.

But just as everyone was celebrating, a discouraging female voice suddenly rang out: "But..."

"You clearly promised the Jade Phosphorous Serpent King that you wouldn't harm its son!"

All eyes turned to the speaker: Zhu Zhuqing.

Yu Xiaogang's expression turned cold: "How come I don't remember you having a habit of standing up for soul beasts?"

"I just feel that it wouldn't be right to break a promise."

Zhu Zhuqing's tone was soft and gentle, her voice low.

"Ha!" Ma Hongjun laughed. "Could it be because you're widowed and your maternal instincts are overflowing?"

Her face turned pale instantly.

Ma Hongjun's words were particularly harsh, yet they received unanimous approval from Shrek Academy.

"Womanly compassion!" Tang San defined it.

"The Azure Phosphorous Serpent, this evil soul beast, will only destroy the ecology of Sunset Forest if left alive!"

The master nodded hurriedly, clearly agreeing with his disciple's words.

Dugu Yan possesses the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Martial Soul, yet she defies the Heavenly Gang, repaying kindness with enmity, and daring to extract her own blood!
According to Tang San, she had a "way to her death"!
"Evil soul beasts deserve to be punished by heaven and earth; it would be an outrage not to kill them!"

"You can't reason with such evil spirit beasts; the only way to eliminate future troubles is to kill them completely. Otherwise, keeping them around will only cause more problems!"

Tang San kept the principles in the Xuan Tian Bao Lu (Mysterious Heavenly Treasure Record) firmly in mind, always keeping them in mind to guide his behavior and thoughts.

"Everyone was in high spirits today, so I'm not going to dwell on your mistake. But if this happens again..."

The master put on airs and adopted a high-pitched tone: "Hmph! Multiple crimes, punished together!"

He faced Zhu Zhuqing and spoke in a cold tone.

This female student seems to have a lapse in judgment about her own status. Does she think she's still a member of the Star Luo Empire's royal family?
Dai Mubai is dead! You are the loser in the royal competition!
Flander is already in prison, and you have no right to speak at Shrek Academy, which I, Yu Xiaogang, lead.
