Douluo: Martial Soul Research Diary

Chapter 277 Yu Xiaogang's Resentment
Heavenly Dou Empire, Imperial Palace

"Can you"

Sword Douluo stepped forward and hesitated for a moment.

Pointing to Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, he asked, "Assess whether his martial spirit is genuine?"

Han Tao frowned.

This is not a simple question.

If Xue Qinghe's true martial soul is revealed, causing the plan to seize the country to fail, the Spirit Hall will not let him off easily.

However, if he helps Xue Qinghe cover for her, Sword Douluo will inevitably make things difficult for him when her identity is exposed.
"Humph!"

Just as Han Tao hesitated, Yu Xiaogang stepped forward abruptly.

His tone and expression were full of dissatisfaction: "Sword Douluo Chen Xin."

"Just now, I gave my analysis. Xue Qinghe's martial soul is a swan, and there are no problems with the details."

"You've summoned Han Tao now, does that mean you don't believe my theory?"

Yu Xiaogang's eyes widened, his tone carrying a slight questioning tone.

"Um"

Chen Xin frowned, but her expression was somewhat strange: "You seem to disregard me?"

He lived a life of luxury in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and no disciple in the school dared to speak to him like that. He didn't know where this so-called "master" got the guts.

"Seven Killing Sword!"

With a wave of his white robe and outstretched arm, a simple, ancient sword about two meters long materialized in the air, its blade swirling within his palm.

Nine spirit rings, yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black, black, black, separated from their original form and transformed into nine stars engraved on the ancient longsword.

As Chen Xin's illusory finger solidified...
The Seven Kill Sword pierced through multiple sound barriers and suddenly slashed towards Yu Xiaogang's shoulder.

"Master!" Tang San shouted urgently.

Tang San kept his Purple Demon Eyes active and was the first to notice Sword Douluo's attack. He quickly tugged at his father's clothes.

"Humph!"

Tang Hao let out a low groan, panting heavily, and suddenly gripped the Clear Sky Hammer tightly.

With a spinning body, the power of the Haotian Hammer's "Soaring Strike" was fully unleashed through the coordinated movement of the legs, waist, shoulders, and arms, colliding with the Seven Kill Sword that pierced the sound barrier.

A powerful shockwave swept and rippled through the center of the collision.

"Is this the strength of a level 95 Title Douluo?"

Feeling the surging air currents, Han Tao was so shocked that he took two steps back.

Soul power was quietly activated, extending from the ground to the sky, and light and shadow filled the entire palace. The power of the two illusions enveloped all the furnishings.

Palace walls, bricks and tiles, human figures, and the spirit of martial arts.
The Haotian Hammer and the Seven Kill Sword collided amidst the surging soul power, synchronizing one by one within the illusory scene.

"pity."

"Even now, I still haven't grasped the microscopic structure of soul power. If I could understand this part of the theory, perhaps I could accurately simulate the battles of a Title Douluo."

The world inside and outside the illusion is like two separate worlds developing.

The powerful blast of air caused Han Tao to take two steps back, but Yu Xiaogang was in a much worse situation.
As a Great Soul Master, being at the center of the soul power collision, facing the soul power collision of two level 95 Title Douluos, he was overturned by the enormous force.

Bang!
A heavy object fell to the ground with a thud.

"Grandmaster!"

Yu Xiaogang could faintly hear the voice of his disciple Tang San.

"Master, how are you?"

Tang San quickly stepped forward and helped Yu Xiaogang, whose body was trembling, to his feet.

"Thank goodness!"

He waved his hand, his expression shifting from downcast to proud, and looked at Tang San, warning him: "Sword Douluo doesn't respect my theories!"

"So, Xiao San, you must cultivate diligently and become the strongest on the Douluo Continent."

"Yes!" Tang San nodded repeatedly: "I will prove your theory and use the master's theory to slap him in the face."

Then, Tang San turned his gaze to the center of the battle. Witnessing Sword Douluo's ancient longsword, the Shrek Academy motto, "Those who dare not cause trouble are mediocre," came to mind, and he sharply questioned:
"The master kindly helped you distinguish the authenticity of Xue Qinghe's martial soul. Even if you don't agree with his theory, you shouldn't attack him!"

Tang San's tone was angry and firm: "How could you do such an ungrateful thing? Don't you have any shame?"

"Oh?" Chen Xin was also taken aback: "Are you talking about me?"

"If it's not you, then who else could it be?"

His soul power suddenly seemed to freeze in mid-air. Sword Douluo stared at Tang San's face, his expression conveying an inexplicable meaning.

Ning Fengzhi smiled slightly: "Master has indeed taught a good disciple."

However, while he was praising the Grandmaster, the light of his soul power amplification poured into Sword Douluo's body without reservation, forcibly raising Sword Douluo's combat power to level 97.

"Tear!"

The Seven Kill Sword clashed with the Clear Sky Hammer once again.

A considerable amount of time has passed since the rings exploded, and the Clear Sky Hammer can no longer withstand such a vast amount of soul power. Tang Hao's strength is rapidly declining.

On the other side, however, was the super-powerful Sword Douluo, empowered by Ning Fengzhi.

Tick
Cold sweat trickled down his forehead and down his cheek.

It fell to the ground with a crisp sound, but no one present noticed this detail.

Aside from Han Tao in the illusionary realm: "It seems Tang Hao isn't doing so well."

Sword Douluo's gaze swept past Tang Hao and fixed on Tang San behind him: "Perhaps it is the presence of Haotian Douluo that has given you some courage to question me."

She turned her head away: "But what if it were any other time?"

"Your question alone is enough to give me a reason to kill you!"

Sword Douluo's expression was calm and composed, his white robes gleaming arrogantly in the sunlight, the Seven Kill Sword swirling around him, putting on an air of otherworldly grace.

"Damn it." Tang San said with a gloomy face.

This is the first time I've ever seen such a despicable and vicious person who doesn't follow the rules of the world at all.

Sword Douluo Tang San coldly warned:

"Although you are powerful, your character is not upright, so you are not worthy of the title of a strongman."

They placed themselves on the moral high ground and condemned Sword Douluo's sneak attack.

"Hmm?" Sword Douluo asked in surprise.

A trace of soul power once again emerged from the Seven Kill Sword.

Tang San quickly retreated.
She quietly approached her father and whispered in his ear.

"Chen Xin, you're really underestimating me?"

“If you lay a hand on my son now, I will also abandon all principles and attack the disciples of your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.”

Looking at Han Tao, his tone was icy and resolute:

"If I'm not mistaken, Ning Rongrong, Han Tao, and Ning Tian are all disciples of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."

"Pfft!" Han Tao chuckled upon hearing this.

Even if Tang Hao were at his peak, with his Exploding Ring and Great Sumeru Hammer fully activated, he might still have a chance to defeat himself.

But that's all there is to it.
Inside and outside the illusion, the battlefield situation is becoming more synchronized.

The timing is extremely precise, and the illusionary scenario unfolds even faster, appearing half a beat ahead of the actual battlefield situation.

"In this situation,"

"It's practically impossible for Tang Hao to ambush me!"

A slight sense of confidence rose in Han Tao's heart.

But just then, a completely different situation appeared.

Yu Xiaogang suddenly jumped to the center of the battlefield: "Yes!"

He scrutinized Ning Fengzhi, adopting an arrogant and confident posture:
"If you dare to lay a hand on my disciple Tang San, then don't blame me for disregarding the past master-disciple relationship at Shrek Academy."

"Even if I, Yu Xiaogang, give my life, I will make your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School pay the price!"
