Douluo: Starting from the Nine-Curved Vine Dragon

Chapter 324 The Unusual Netherworld White Tiger
One Soul Saint, one Soul Emperor, and five Soul Kings—this is the lineup configuration of the Heaven Dou Royal Seed Team.

"The Ye, Bai, Du, Zhi, and Wei families have certainly spared no expense."

Although Xue Qinghe held the title of Dean of the Heaven Dou Royal Soul Master Academy, Dugu Yan handled all the affairs of the Heaven Dou Royal Seed Team. Therefore, he only knew who the team members were, and this was the first time he had witnessed their strength.

"It's a pity that Duke Lin has been in seclusion for many years and missed such a wonderful competition."

"What do you think, Tang San?"

Xue Qinghe smiled gently, as if it were just a casual question.

"It's a real pity that we missed such a golden opportunity to fight!"

Tang San recalled his birthday banquet when he was nine years old. It was the first and only time he lost to a Soul Master who was younger than him.

Things are different now. He is now a seven-ring Soul Saint, while the other party is at most a Soul King. If he is lucky enough to obtain a similar inheritance, he will at most become a Soul Emperor.

"Putting all that aside, the vice-captain of the first team, Ye Lingling, is actually a Soul Saint, and a healing-type Soul Saint at that. Isn't Your Highness curious?"

Tang San shifted his focus to Ye Lingling. A healing-type Soul Saint of such a young age could basically confirm her identity as a successor of a god.

Upon hearing this, Xue Qinghe remained unmoved, still looking at Tang San, and said with a smile:

"There's more than just Vice Captain Ye as a Soul Saint. The Tang brothers and that one from the Sea God Empire are all Soul Saints, and the youngest of the three, I think, is you, Tang brothers?"

"Compared to the two of them who are about the same age, Qinghe is more curious about you, Brother Tang San."

Upon hearing this, Tang San felt a pang of panic.

He couldn't let anyone know about the Dark Blue Silver Emperor's devouring ability. Once this secret was revealed, he would be labeled a Fallen One, wanted by the Spirit Hall, and forced to live a life of darkness and displacement.

So Tang San quickly changed the subject:

"Really? Let's watch the game first..."

……

"Soul Emperor, and there's another... Soul Saint!"

Dai Mubai gritted his teeth, a mixture of panic and jealousy welling up inside him.

Zhu Zhuyun, who had been carefully observing Dai Mubai's expression, noticed a change in his expression and immediately whispered something to him:

"Your Highness, the soul spirit of the Heavenly Dou Sect is holding a begonia flower. If I'm not mistaken, it should be the Nine-Heart Begonia, a healing-type martial soul."

Therapy?
Dai Mubai was taken aback. Upon closer inspection, he discovered that the female Soul Saint was indeed holding a begonia flower.

He had stayed in Tiandou City for a period of time and had heard of the Nine Heart Begonia martial soul.

"A wide-area group healing ability, and at the Soul Saint level!"

Dai Mubai was much calmer now, but he was still uneasy inside.

Seeing this, Zhu Zhuyun took advantage of the remaining one-minute preparation time and quickly introduced the martial souls of the Heaven Dou Royal Seed Team to Dai Mubai one by one.

"That Soul Emperor from the Heaven Dou Sect, whose martial soul is the Azure Phosphorous Serpent, is the granddaughter of Poison Douluo Dugu Bo. She is a control-type Soul Master, and her control method is poison."

"The remaining five Soul Kings, the one with the winged serpent staff spirit soul, is the granddaughter of the peerless dragon snake. This is clearly a spirit soul mutation, and she is also a control-type Soul Master."

"Snow Lotus Martial Soul, Support type; Thousand Leaf Banyan Martial Soul, Control type; Heavenly Star Furnace Martial Soul, Defense type; Azure Vine, Control type."

"The opposing team's lineup consists of four controllers, one defender, one support, and one healer. Their lineup lacks both offensive and agile attack-type Soul Masters, making attack and agility their weaknesses."

Control, defense, support, and healing.

These eight words echoed in Dai Mubai's mind.

Among all the different types of Soul Masters, the Control type is the most troublesome. Moreover, without attribute advantages, the Control type completely counters the Power type.

Dai Mubai's own Bloodwing White Tiger Martial Soul is a powerful offensive type.

Thinking about it this way, Dai Mubai's pressure instantly soared to its peak.

"Damn it, a seven-person team, four of them control-type characters, are they specifically targeting me?!"

"I don't care anymore, I'm going all in!"

At this point, the one-minute preparation time is over.

Dai Mubai forcefully pulled Zhu Zhuyun to his side and ordered in an unquestionable tone:
"Soul Fusion!"

Meanwhile, the remaining five team members also received orders from Dai Mubai:
At all costs, one person stopped one Soul King.

Both sides have one support-type Soul Master, and Tian Dou also has an additional healing-type Soul Master. Therefore, Tian Dou has one less Battle Soul Master than Xing Luo. Xing Luo has six Battle Soul Masters, while Tian Dou only has five.

Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuyun were undergoing a spirit fusion, leaving Xingluo with only four battle spirit masters. Their target was the four battle spirit kings of Tiandou.

Roar!
The tiger roared, and all the beasts trembled.

In the shadowy light, a black tiger with blood-red wings piercing its ribs slowly emerged.

"It can mutate and then continue to fuse? It must be the power of a divine artifact!"

As Dugu Bo's only granddaughter, Dugu Yan knew a lot of secret information, and therefore knew Dai Mubai's identity as the successor of the gods.

"Sigh, I'm not going to steal the spotlight today."

"Lingling, it's up to you now."

The Martial Soul Fusion Technique unleashed by a Soul Emperor-level inheritor of a deity and a Soul King is something a Soul Emperor who uses poison as a means of control cannot contend with.

Dugu Yan was self-aware and entrusted the important task of dealing with the Martial Soul Fusion Skill to Ye Lingling, while she herself went to the Soul King Battlefield to wreak havoc.

"no problem."

Ye Lingling's tone was aloof, and her reply was brief.

Lin Rong had told her that revealing her identity as the inheritor of the divine power at this stage would be more beneficial than harmful.

Therefore, Ye Lingling had no intention of holding back in this match.

On the battlefield, support-type Soul Masters are often the enemy's primary target.

As a Soul Saint-level healing-type Soul Master, Ye Lingling naturally became Dai Mubai's first target.

With its crimson wings flapping, the Netherworld White Tiger soared into the air, heading straight for Ye Lingling's location.

"Strange, why is no one protecting him? This is a Soul Saint-level healing Soul Master, have they gone mad?"

As they lunged at Ye Lingling, both Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuyun sensed something was amiss, but they couldn't quite put their finger on it.

But soon, Ye Lingling showed them with her actions why she didn't need protection.

Ye Lingling wrapped one arm around her chest, and a moon-white harp appeared in her embrace.

With his free hand, he played the harp, his fingertips plucking the strings.

Zheng~zheng~
Ye Lingling played softly, yet the melodious music resounded throughout the entire Soul Arena.

An invisible mental attack was concealed within, and along with the spread of the zither music, it struck Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuyun's martial soul fusion skill in an instant.
