Douluo: Martial Soul Research Diary

Chapter 278 Identifying Bloodlines

"This has truly broadened my horizons!"

Of all things in the world, the most unpredictable is the human heart.

Can you guess what the purpose behind Yu Xiaogang's behavior is?
What reason could someone have to utter such absurd words under such circumstances?

"Yes, Master!"

Xue Qinghe had a faint smile on his face.

Although just a short while ago, Sword Douluo's sword was only inches away from his neck, the current situation is far from life-threatening.

"Yu Xiaogang, because of his arrogance, actually did himself a favor."

In the center of the battlefield, Yu Xiaogang stood tall, his chest heaving, his resolute expression reflecting the sun's radiance.
“If my disciple suffers even the slightest injury today, I will disregard the bond between teacher and student, kill Ning Rongrong, and crush your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.”

Bone Douluo chuckled.

"What utterly audacious boasting! You even dared to claim you crushed the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School? With your strength as a Great Soul Master?"

He stepped forward slightly, the Bone Dragon Arm merging with his right shoulder, arm, and fingers, lifting Yu Xiaogang's delicate body high.

He swallowed hard, hovering in mid-air: "Or is it based on your Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Clan's father?"

Compared to Tang San's ruthlessness and Tang Hao's domineering nature, Bone Douluo was much more tolerant of Yu Xiaogang.

If Tang San or Tang Hao had said such words, Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo would never have let him leave. But Yu Xiaogang is different; he's a good-for-nothing, and no one would take the absurd words of a clown to heart.

"Bone Douluo, release the Grandmaster!"

Tang San shouted anxiously.

Knowing he couldn't defeat Bone Douluo, he focused his attention on Han Tao, who was not far away.

"Han Tao is only a Soul King. As long as I capture Han Tao, I can naturally force Bone Douluo to submit."

As his eyes darted around, a slightly wicked thought began to stir within him.

Twelve dragon whisker needles are placed on the inside of the palm, and not a single one is missed when the fingers are turned.

The crossbow with its tight-fitting floral pattern, positioned behind them, was also fully prepared, its pupils glowing with a rich purple light.

"What do you want to do?" Han Tao asked leisurely.

Tang San ignored him.

With a series of hidden weapon techniques, such as "swans flying apart," "killing two birds with one stone," and "bat wing reincarnation," the crossbows on their backs were simultaneously fired as they leaped and bounded towards Han Tao in a triangular formation.

At the same time, Tang San moved with the graceful, ghostly steps of a ghost, rapidly approaching Han Tao.

"Heh!" Han Tao chuckled.

"They say you learn from your mistakes, but you just never learn."

The Purple Demon Eye is the natural enemy of illusions, and illusions are the natural enemy of hidden weapons. Tang San's Purple Demon Eye has not yet broken through to the Mustard Seed level, so he can only be completely restrained at the moment.

Han Tao didn't even try to dodge.

Tang San threw all his hidden weapons into empty space, and collapsed into a pale, bewildered expanse.

"This is..." He turned and looked around. "Damn it, it's another illusion."

Because it was a hasty action, Han Tao did not have time to prepare; otherwise, these hidden weapons would definitely have been aimed at Tang Hao and Yu Xiaogang.

Tang San was quite dejected: "Yes."

"I've tried so many times before and failed to kill him, how could I possibly succeed in this desperate situation?"

Xue Qinghe's expression shifted slightly, and he murmured, "How did you do that?"

"Han Tao is clearly in this position, so why can't the hidden weapons hit him? Does this world have some kind of soul skill like evasion?"

"Of course!" Han Tao replied.

The Netherworld Possession ability increases the chance of dodging by 50%, which is incredibly powerful.

Han Tao didn't really understand how this dodge probability was expressed, since he hadn't studied it and hadn't encountered any reference cases of the Netherworld Cat.

"and many more!"

Haotian Douluo suddenly put away his Haotian Hammer: "I think we don't need to continue fighting."

"Although Yu Xiaogang said Xue Qinghe's martial soul is a swan, you know the level of his theory." "Why don't you have Han Tao test Xue Qinghe's martial soul and see if it really is the six-winged angel I mentioned!"

Qian Renxue's heart tightened.

The threat from Sword Douluo wasn't really a big deal, but Han Tao was unaware of his own identity, and if he rashly exposed himself...
The "plan to steal the country" has failed, a complete failure!

"Um"

"You're right!"

Sword Douluo said calmly.

He was indeed on the side of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, but the hatred for killing one's father is irreconcilable. If Xue Qinghe's martial soul is truly the six-winged angel as Tang Hao said...

They have absolutely no regard for the sect or the consequences.

"Fine."

Han Tao glanced at the master with disdain.

Then he slowly walked forward, his mind filled with conflicting emotions.

"To determine the authenticity of a Soul Master's Martial Soul, one can start from several aspects, such as bloodline."

Han Tao's tone was calm: "When a Soul Master breaks through to the Soul Emperor stage, under the influence of spiritual power and martial soul, they begin to gradually temper their Soul Master bloodline, building the foundation of the Soul Master and the inheritance for the next generation."

"By examining a Soul Master's bloodline, one can easily identify their true Martial Soul."

Sword Douluo nodded; Han Tao's way of explaining things was much more reliable than Yu Xiaogang's.

Yu Xiaogang quickly wrote it down, and in the midst of his turmoil, he had already figured out a way to plagiarize it, such as expanding "The Ten Core Competencies of Bloodline" into "The Eleven Core Competencies of Bloodline".

"Your Highness, may I request a portion of your blood?" Han Tao asked calmly.

Xue Qinghe did not refuse.

A portion of blood was drawn, injected into a blood bag, and handed to Han Tao.

"Um"

Han Tao was about to say something more, but was interrupted again by Yu Xiaogang.

"I understand!" he shouted.

It drew the attention of almost everyone present.

Sword Douluo glanced at Bone Douluo with displeasure: "Can't you shut its mouth?"

"No! Sword Douluo, please believe me!"

"You'll regret it if you don't let me speak!"

Han Tao was somewhat curious, wondering what kind of trouble the master was up to now.

"What do you want to say?" he asked.

Although Yu Xiaogang appeared anxious, he always displayed unparalleled arrogance when it came to theory:
"As mentioned in 'The Ten Core Competencies of Bloodline,' a Soul Master can absorb the bloodline of Soul Masters with the same Martial Soul. Therefore, by having His Highness the Crown Prince inject the blood of other princes, it is possible to determine whether his Martial Soul is a true swan!"

The Great Soul Master's expression was exceptionally arrogant. He looked around and puffed out his chest, saying, "I actually already knew Han Tao's method of identification. It's not a skill at all."

"Then why didn't you bring it up?" Bone Douluo asked calmly.

"Ha!" The master chuckled dismissively. "After all, I am a renowned master, so of course I should give these young people a chance to prove themselves."

As it spoke, it displayed the honor medal of the Haotian Sect: "See this? This is the honor medal of the Haotian Sect!"

Bone Douluo's lips twitched slightly.

"No way!" Poison Douluo retorted to the master.

"It is unreasonable to allow His Highness the Crown Prince to be infused with the blood of other Soul Masters, which would pollute the noble bloodline of Emperor Xueye's offspring."

"Yes!" Han Tao nodded in agreement.

He chuckled easily, "How about we let the other princes absorb the Crown Prince's blood and see if they're compatible?"

“They are essentially the same!” Yu Xiaogang immediately said.

The master only knew one side of the story. While it is true that a Soul Master can absorb the blood of another Soul Master of the same Martial Soul, with the assistance of a Healing Soul Master, they can also absorb the blood of a higher-ranking Soul Master.

The six-winged angel and the swan spirit are surprisingly well-matched.
