Douluo, my clone Groudon

Chapter 245 The Advantages of Having Someone Behind You

"The 5,000-year-old Vajra Baboon!" Yuanen Yehui's voice was filled with barely concealed excitement. "The nemesis of the Titan Giant Ape clan, possessing the innate soul skill 'Berserk,' which can increase all attributes by 50%."

She clenched her fists. "If it weren't for their intellectual disability, Titan apes would have gone extinct long ago, given their reproductive capacity."

This is simply one of the most suitable spirits for her, especially since the King Kong Baboon is best at close combat, making it easy for it to develop spirit skills that suit her.

Yuan Enhui released his martial spirit and sensed the aura of the Titan Giant Ape. The King Kong Baboon's eyes instantly turned bloodshot. It pounded its chest and let out a deafening roar. With a powerful kick of its thick hind legs, it broke the entire ancient tree in two.

"I'm taking this spirit!" Yuanen Yehui's martial spirit activated, and three spirit rings shone brightly. "You don't need to help, I'll handle it myself!"

She knew that to tame this kind of spirit that clashed with her martial soul, she had to subdue it with absolute power. Just like training a wild horse, only by directly crushing its pride could it be controlled like an extension of its own limb in the future.

The ferocious fist of the giant baboon slammed down, but Yuanen Yehui neither dodged nor evaded, meeting it head-on with the Titan's Fist. The two immense forces collided, the shockwave sending surrounding rocks flying. Blood trickled from the corner of the girl's mouth, but the fighting spirit in her eyes burned ever brighter.

"Come again!"

As if provoked, the King Kong Baboon's eyes turned even redder, and its aura surged, revealing that it had activated its Berserk Soul Skill.

Its thick arms pounded its chest, emitting a deafening roar that distorted the surrounding air with its ferocity.

Yuan Enhui was not to be outdone, and her first and third spirit rings lit up one after another. Her slender body appeared particularly resolute under the light of the spirit rings, and her eyes flashed with an indomitable fighting spirit.

"Titan power!"

"Vajra Titan!"

With two clear shouts, the girl's body swelled to four meters tall at a visible speed.

This is also one of the important reasons why she disguised herself as a man.

After being possessed by the Titan Ape, its body is covered in dark fur and its muscles are bulging, which is a huge psychological challenge for girls.

She looked down at her thick, veiny arms, a hint of helplessness flashing in her eyes, but it was quickly replaced by fighting spirit.

Gula stood to the side, his gaze lingering on Yuanen Yehui for a moment.

He was a little curious. Before Yuan En Ye Hui wore that highly elastic bodysuit, wouldn't she have no clothes to wear when she was possessed by her martial spirit? This thought made him smile, but he was quickly interrupted.

The communicator in his arms suddenly rang, drawing curious glances from those around him. In a special place like the Soul Tower, ordinary communication devices were simply unusable, let alone connecting to the outside world.

Others wouldn't be able to do it, of course, but Gula's teacher was the Heavenly Phoenix Douluo, a top expert in the Spirit Pagoda, and naturally had special privileges. Gula felt the probing gazes around him, frowned slightly, and walked to the side to connect to his communicator.

"Teacher, is there anything I can do for you?" He deliberately lowered his voice.

"What, can't I contact you if there's nothing wrong?" Leng Yaozhu's soft, charming voice, tinged with reproach, came from the other end of the communicator, with a hint of teasing in her tone.

Gula's lips unconsciously curled up, and he quickly denied it: "Of course not." He paused, "Teacher, please tell me." Leng Yaozhu on the other end of the communicator seemed very satisfied with this answer, and her voice became serious: "You are going to break through to Soul King within a year. Your second martial soul has a fairy herb soul spirit, so you don't need to prepare a soul spirit. Do you have any ideas for your first martial soul?"

Gula's heart skipped a beat. Was his teacher about to surprise him again? He cautiously replied, "Does the teacher have a recommendation?"

“Not bad.” Leng Yaozhu liked Gula and Guyue’s intelligence and wit the most. Although sometimes it was less fun to teach them, it did save them a lot of trouble.

Her voice carried a hint of smugness: "That little girl from the Ye family is coming to challenge the Soul Tower. On the next floor, you'll encounter the soul spirits that Shrek Academy and the Ye family have prepared for her. As my disciple, of course, your teacher will also prepare one for you."

She paused, then added, "It's okay if we can't integrate. We can occupy it temporarily to prevent someone from taking it away beforehand."

"Thank you, teacher," Gula said sincerely. He knew the kindness Leng Yaozhu had shown him; this teacher not only provided him with the best resources and training, but also considered many things for him in advance.

Some might feel this is restrictive, but only those who have experienced loneliness know how precious this care is. Gula's grip on the communicator tightened slightly, a hint of warmth flashing in his eyes.

"Hmph! Don't just thank me. Showing yourself at the Spirit Pagoda a few more times is much more sincere than just saying thank you verbally." Leng Yaozhu's voice carried a hint of reproach, but more so, concern.

Her tone turned serious: "Your outstanding performance at Shrek Academy will help you compete for the next candidate for Spirit Master, but don't forget to come back to the Spirit Tower often, lest someone gossip behind your back. I'm not afraid of these rumors, but you need a good reputation to move forward smoothly."

“I understand, teacher.” A cold glint flashed in Gula’s eyes. He knew all too well that there were always different voices in any organization, and he had long heard the rumors circulating in the shadows.

Spreading rumors is one thing, but if anyone dares to target him, he will make those behind the scenes regret it.

He changed the subject, his tone becoming lighter: "Teacher, what kind of spirit did you prepare for me?"

Leng Yaozhu knew that Gula was determined and didn't dwell on those troublesome matters. She then said, "I know you have high standards. All three soul spirits are indomitable soul spirits with extremely high bloodline levels."

Her voice carried a hint of pride: "The first type is the Tyrannosaurus Rex Soul Spirit, which is known as the King of Dragons. Whether it is the physical qualities comparable to a real dragon or the earth attribute bias, it is very suitable for your martial soul."

Upon hearing this, Gula immediately shook his head, even though he knew his teacher couldn't see. That was a soul spirit that Tang Wulin had suppressed and killed; it might even betray him during battle. He didn't want to create a future problem for himself.

"Teacher, who's next?" he politely declined.

Sensing Gula's lack of interest, Leng Yaozhu replaced the Tyrannosaurus Rex spirit projection on the control panel outside. She had anticipated that her disciple might have her own ideas, so she had prepared several alternative plans.

“The second one is…” Her voice suddenly became mysterious.

She kept everyone in suspense: "I won't talk about that yet."

"I searched all the martial souls and soul beasts recorded in the Spirit Pagoda and found the soul beast whose bloodline is most similar to your mutated martial soul."

"The Amethyst Behemoth, known as the King of the Earth, possesses physical strength and claws that can tear apart dragons, as well as the ability to control earth attributes that provide an inexhaustible source of power on the ground. These qualities are very similar to your martial soul."

"The Spirit Pagoda has always had a project to replicate and deeply explore the ancient genes of soul beasts. Some of the extinct soul beasts you have seen have been resurrected through this method. However, the more advanced the bloodline, the more difficult it is to create a complete soul spirit."
