Douluo: Yu Hao is reborn, this Tang San is different

Chapter 104 Poisonous Hidden Weapons!
A violent current surged wildly along the veins of the Blue Silver Grass, like a rampaging electric python, instantly connecting Tang San and Dai Mubai together.

The air in the arena seemed to be ignited by this terrifying energy, crackling and popping, and filled with a pungent, burnt smell.

The VIPs in the Crystal Box leaned forward, their eyes fixed on the situation on the field, and a tense atmosphere spread in the enclosed space.

A ruthless glint flashed in Yu Tianheng's eyes. Knowing the opportunity was rare, he didn't hesitate to pour more soul power into the lightning. Blue-purple arcs of electricity followed the vines of the Blue Silver Grass, swiftly lunging towards Tang San like venomous snakes.

Tang San felt a sharp pain shoot from his fingertips, as if countless steel needles were piercing him, and his blood felt like it was being boiled by an electric current. His face instantly turned deathly pale, veins bulged on his forehead, and he knew inwardly that something was wrong:
"This can't go on like this!"

At the critical moment, Tang San gritted his teeth and unleashed all his soul power, shouting, "Release!"

The Blue Silver Grass wrapped around Dai Mubai quickly retracted as if it were alive, and the broken vines danced in the air, dissipating with sparks of electricity.

Without the protection and healing of the Blue Silver Grass, Dai Mubai visibly swayed, his body still bearing the charred marks from the electric shock, and his breathing became rapid and heavy.

"Do it!"

Seizing this fleeting opportunity, Yu Tianheng gave the order. The members of the Royal Fighting Team pounced on Dai Mubai like a pack of predatory beasts.

The Shi brothers' enormous tortoise shells gleamed with an earthy yellow light. They strode forward with their thick legs, like heavy chariots, rumbling towards Dai Mubai, attempting to trap him with their impenetrable defense.

Dugu Yan's lips curled into a sinister smile. Her emerald green snake tail slid rapidly across the ground. With a wave of her hands, a large cloud of emerald green poisonous mist spread towards Dai Mubai, causing the ground to sizzle and corrode wherever it went.

Dai Mubai felt the deadly threats surging from all directions, and a surge of heroic spirit welled up within him. His tiger-like eyes widened, and he roared to the sky, "Well done!"

His soul power surged wildly, and the white light burst forth once more. He brandished his tiger claws, first striking fiercely to deflect Osro's sneak attack. The powerful force made Osro's tiger's mouth go numb, and he retreated repeatedly.

Immediately afterwards, he spun around, his tiger claws creating afterimages as he shattered the wind blades that were riding the wind.

However, facing the Shi brothers' direct assault, Dai Mubai still felt immense pressure. The two enormous tortoise shells slammed into him, and he felt as if he had been struck in the chest by a heavy hammer, almost spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Just then, Dugu Yan's poisonous mist enveloped them. Dai Mubai held his breath, but there was no fear in his eyes. Instead, his eyes shone with an even more intense fighting spirit.

Off the field, the Shrek Academy students were extremely anxious, their eyes filled with worry: "Mu Bai, you must hold on!"

Zhu Zhuqing's eyes were icy, her body leaning slightly forward, ready to rush into the arena to provide support at any moment. The master frowned, his eyes fixed on the situation on the field, his mind rapidly considering a countermeasure.

Qin Ming, the leader of the Royal Fighting Team, smiled with satisfaction. He nodded slightly and said in a low voice, "Well done, that's it!"

On the Soul Arena, the intense light of soul power and the flying debris intertwined to create a tragic scene. Dai Mubai's White Tiger Martial Soul was dim as a candle in the wind, and its once majestic white fur was now covered in blood and dust.

Yu Tianheng's Thunder Dragon Claw tore open the flesh on his shoulder, and smoke rose continuously from the charred wound; Oslo's leopard claws left three deep, bone-revealing bloody gashes on his side, and scarlet blood gushed along the tiger stripes; while Dugu Yan's Azure Phosphorus Serpent Venom was seeping into his meridians through the wound, and the burning pain made his vision go black in waves, and his consciousness began to blur.

The Shi brothers' Xuanwu tortoise shells pressed down like a small mountain. Dai Mubai barely dodged to the side, but a wisp of tiger fur was sliced ​​off by the wind blades of the wind-wielding warrior. The wind blades grazed past his ear, leaving a bloody gash on his cheek. The Royal Fighting Team's attacks were as dense as a storm. Dai Mubai was overwhelmed, his wounds multiplying, each defensive maneuver accompanied by a muffled groan.

His breathing was rapid and heavy, and the intense pain almost broke his will, but as the captain of the Shrek Seven Devils, he gritted his teeth and persevered, his eyes still burning with an indomitable fighting spirit.

"Mu Bai!" A gasp erupted from the Shrek Academy's spectator area.

Ma Hongjun's phoenix flames surged, and scorching waves of heat spread outwards from him, slightly warping the stone slabs on the ground. He charged into the battlefield like a burning meteor, leaving a long trail of fire behind him.

Zhu Zhuqing's Netherworld Cat Martial Soul instantly possessed her, her figure blurring as she followed closely behind, her green eyes flashing with anxiety and anger.

However, the Royal Fighting Team was prepared. The Stone Graphite and Stone Mill brothers took a step forward, their tortoise shells clashing with a deafening roar. A yellowish-brown barrier suddenly rose up, thick earth and stone like a city wall, blocking the two outside. Oslo and Yufeng turned around simultaneously, facing the two of them respectively. The air was filled with the ear-piercing sound of soul power colliding.

Oslo's Black Panther Martial Soul was incredibly agile. He dodged Ma Hongjun's Phoenix Fire Line with a flash, and his claws lashed out at Ma Hongjun's face like lightning. Ma Hongjun hurriedly leaned back, and flames condensed into a shield in front of him, blocking the attack.

But Oslo pressed his advantage relentlessly, launching a series of attacks. Each leap was accompanied by a sharp claw wind, forcing Ma Hongjun to retreat repeatedly.

Yu Feng hovered in the air, his wings flapping as sharp wind blades rained down on Zhu Zhuqing. Zhu Zhuqing's Netherworld Cat agility was exquisite; she nimbly weaved through the wind blades, occasionally unleashing Netherworld Spikes to counterattack. The wind blades clashed with the spikes, sparks flying, and the intense battle shook the entire arena.

Xiao Wu's nails dug deeply into her palms, blood seeping from between her fingers, but she was completely unaware. She grabbed Tang San's sleeve, her voice trembling:

"Mistress, what should we do? If this continues, Mu Bai will..."

Tang San's pupils were fixed on Dai Mubai, who was swaying precariously in the arena. The Blue Silver Grass twisted uneasily at his feet, as if it were also anxious about its companion's situation.

His mind raced as he pondered a way to break the deadlock.

Suddenly, he remembered the special sausage Oscar had prepared, which might be the only way to get Dai Mubai out of danger.

He took a deep breath and nodded slightly the moment his eyes met Dai Mubai's.

Dai Mubai wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, a resolute glint in his tiger-like eyes.

He reached into his pocket and took out a crystal-clear sausage—a flight aid sausage that Oscar had painstakingly crafted.

The sausage melted in his mouth, a cool sensation shooting straight to his dantian. Suddenly, space behind him split open, and a pair of transparent wings unfurled, their flapping creating a whistling airflow that disrupted the surrounding soul energy. Yu Tianheng's pupils constricted, and he roared, "Don't let him escape!"

His arms crackled with lightning, and bolts of lightning as thick as bowls ripped through the sky, carrying a destructive aura as they hurtled straight at Dai Mubai.

Seeing this, Tang San unleashed his Blue Silver Grass like an arrow, weaving it into a net in the air and forcefully intercepting the lightning. The instant the lightning collided with the Blue Silver Grass, the entire Soul Arena was illuminated as bright as day, the intense light causing the audience to instinctively close their eyes.

A massive explosion rang out, its aftershocks sending dust billowing into the sky. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Dai Mubai flapped his wings with all his might, breaking through the soul power barrier above the battlefield at incredible speed, hovering a hundred meters above the Soul Arena. He looked down, his chest heaving violently, his eyes filled with both the relief of surviving a close call and the rage towards his enemies.

"Don't try to succeed!"

Yu Tianheng's roar was filled with resentment. His Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul once again unleashed powerful energy. The scales on his right arm stood up in layers, and the power of lightning condensed into a tangible form on his dragon claw. A huge lightning cage descended from the sky, flashing with blue-purple lightning, enveloping the Shrek Academy members within it.

The lightning on the cage crackled and popped, and the powerful pressure made it difficult for the Shrek Seven Devils to breathe.

Ning Rongrong's Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda shone brightly, "First, strength! Second, speed! Third, soul!" Three beams of light of different colors landed on Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ma Hongjun respectively. Xiao Wu, who had been amplified, experienced a surge in speed. A fierce glint flashed in her eyes. She flipped in the air, threw out her Soft Bone Lock to entangle the lightning pillar of the cage, and pulled hard.

Her body traced a graceful arc in the air with the force of the pull, every strand of her hair radiating an aura of battle. Zhu Zhuqing and Ma Hongjun seized the opportunity to launch a full-scale attack on the bottom of the cage. Ma Hongjun's phoenix flames transformed into a giant firebird, crashing into the cage; Zhu Zhuqing's Netherworld Thrusts were like sharp blades, constantly piercing the cage's weak points.

The standoff between the Shrek Seven Devils and the Royal Fighting Team has reached a fever pitch.

Tang San gazed at the mottled wounds on his teammates' bodies, while Blue Silver Grass quietly grew at his fingertips, its leaves gleaming with a warm, jade-like luster.

"Life Retrospection".

He chanted a soul incantation in a low voice, and countless strands of blue silver grass shot out like nimble ribbons, wrapping around Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and the others. Pale green light flowed along the vines, and the deep wounds that exposed bone healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. Even Dai Mubai's meridians, which had been eroded by the Azure Phosphorus Serpent venom, regained vitality under the healing power.

"Oh no! He's healing the entire team!"

Yu Tianheng's dragon eyes suddenly contracted, and blue-purple lightning surged on his right arm. "Now's the time to attack with all our might!" The Shi brothers' Xuanwu tortoise shells collided with a deafening roar, and two earthen-yellow giant walls crushed towards the Shrek Academy group. Dugu Yan flicked her snake tail, and a large area of ​​emerald green poisonous mist filled the entire field. Oslo and Yu Feng transformed into black shadows and launched a surprise attack from the left and right sides.

At the critical moment, Tang San's Blue Silver Grass suddenly tripled in size, weaving into an impenetrable protective net in the air.

The poisonous mist touched the Blue Silver Grass and immediately emitted a sizzling, corrosive sound. The Shi brothers' earthen wall crashed into the grass net and was tightly entangled by the supple vines.

"Now!" Tang San suddenly ripped open his clothes, and hidden weapons such as sleeve arrows and bone-piercing nails poured out from the Twenty-Four Bridges Under the Moonlit Night.

The pupils of the Royal Fighting Team members shrank drastically.

These pitch-black metal artifacts were completely different from the soul tools they were familiar with. They showed no fluctuations in soul power, yet they came hurtling through the air in strange arcs.

Oslo's black panther reacted swiftly, barely dodging a bone-piercing nail, but was grazed on the shoulder by a subsequent hidden arrow, the wound instantly turning purplish-blue; Yu Feng spun rapidly in the air, his wind blades attempting to intercept the hidden weapons, but several poison needles pierced his wings, causing him to scream in pain as he fell.

Although Dugu Yan's Azure Phosphorus Snake venom could grant immunity to most toxins, it was no match for the arsenic sulfide etched onto Tang Clan's hidden weapons. A plum blossom dart grazed her cheek, and the venom instantly invaded her bloodstream. She staggered backward, her snake tail twitching uncontrollably.

Just as Ye Lingling was about to use the Nine Heart Begonia Healing Technique, three bone-piercing nails were driven into the ground beneath her feet. The deadly poison spread along the wooden floor, forcing her to retreat repeatedly.

Yu Tianheng roared and activated his Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul at full power. The scales on his right arm stood up like a shield, deflecting all the hidden weapons aimed at his face.

The Shi brothers' tortoise shells displayed terrifying defensive power, leaving only shallow dents from the dense barrage of hidden weapons striking them. However, their teammates were in disarray. Oslo clutched his poisoned wound, Yu Feng struggled to maintain his balance in the air, and Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling were pale, their fighting strength greatly diminished.

At the edge of the arena, Qin Ming's pupils suddenly contracted as he stared at Dugu Yan, who was staggering backward, veins bulging on his forehead: "Oh no, Yanzi and the others have been poisoned! That thing is poisonous!"

His voice was filled with barely concealed anxiety, and his fists clenched involuntarily, as if he could feel the deadly threat posed by those poisoned hidden weapons.

Huo Yuhao stood aside, his expression calm as still water. He gently shook his head, a confident smile curving his lips: "Teacher Qin, there's no need to worry, it's not a big problem."

He reached into his robes and pulled out a small, antique jade bottle, from which a faint medicinal fragrance emanated. "I had already considered this. Therefore, I prepared antidotes and pills that could boost the strength of my teammates in advance."

Qin Ming was slightly taken aback, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes: "When did you...?"

"I started preparing as soon as I learned that I would be fighting the Shrek Seven Devils." Huo Yuhao handed the jade bottle to his assistant, indicating that he should distribute it to the members of the Royal Fighting Team. "Antidote pills can cure all poisons, and this Soul Gathering Pill can raise everyone's soul power by one level within a quarter of an hour. Although the time is limited, it is enough to turn the tide of the battle."

At this moment, the situation on the field was critical.

The Royal Fighting Team members were thrown into disarray by the poisoning, while the Shrek Seven Devils pressed forward relentlessly. But just as the Shrek Seven Devils were preparing to press their advantage, the Royal Fighting Team members all took pills.

In an instant, their auras changed drastically.

Dugu Yan's pale face regained its color, and her emerald green snake tail regained its vitality. A fierce glint flashed in her eyes: "Shrek Academy, you underestimate us!"

Yu Tianheng's Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Martial Soul shone brightly, the scales on his arms became thicker, and the lightning coiled around them became even more violent.
