Civilian Soul Masters in Douluo World

Chapter 274 Victory or Loss
"How is that possible? With Boss Dai's strength... could he be a control-type Soul Master?" Ning Rongrong belatedly realized, in her opinion, this was the most likely possibility.

It is generally acknowledged that control-type Soul Masters have the advantage in one-on-one individual Soul Battles.

"No, he is a power-attack type Soul Master. You have overlooked the most crucial factor: Soul Bone."

Moreover, this soul bone endowed him with the most important explosive flame characteristic, greatly increasing his combat power; the Holy Flame Azure Wolf Martial Soul was already a top-tier offensive beast Martial Soul, and the explosive flame characteristic would further elevate its attack power to another level.

A soul bone with the explosive flame characteristic is undoubtedly the most suitable for the Holy Flame Azure Wolf Martial Soul. Even if the quality of this soul bone is extremely poor, as long as it can give the Holy Flame Azure Wolf Martial Soul the Explosive Flame Envoy, it will be a top-notch soul bone for its soul master.

The Blazing Flame trait greatly enhances the Holy Flame Azure Wolf Martial Soul.

Yu Xiaogang had witnessed Tie Wu and Xie Yue's sparring session at the Spirit Hall. Although it was only once, he could tell from the flames Tie Wu released that the three-colored flames were extraordinary, and he deduced that Tie Wu possessed a spirit bone, specifically a bursting flame spirit bone that greatly enhanced the Holy Flame Azure Wolf spirit.
On the Soul Battle Stage, the two released their Martial Souls and Soul Rings, revealing the aura of their top-tier Martial Souls.

The first and third spirit rings lit up, both indicating amplification of spirit skills.

Tie Wu's soul power level reached level 56, while Dai Mubai's was only level 54. In terms of soul power level, Tie Wu had a slight advantage.

"Roar"

The two let out a low growl as the wolf claws, enveloped in three-colored flames, collided with the powerful tiger claws in a head-on clash of strength and attack.

They are all five-ring Soul Kings with top-tier martial souls, but there are many factors that determine the outcome.

"Boom!"

"What a powerful force!"

"What a terrifying flame."

Tie Wu suffered a slight disadvantage in terms of strength, as Dai Mubai was burned by the three-colored flames, especially the main red flame, which, near its peak, broke through the White Tiger's protective barrier and injured his body.

After several rounds of close-quarters combat, Dai Mubai was clearly at a disadvantage, with more and more of his tiger claws being burned.

The experienced Dai Mubai immediately changed his fighting style, and his second spirit ring lit up.

White Tiger Fierce Light Wave!
At such close range, the White Tiger's fierce light wave struck Tie Wu directly in the face.

Tie Wu's expression changed, and he crossed his arms to form the simplest form of defense.

"呲"

He withstood Dai Mubai's second soul skill, but was forced back several meters, and obvious wounds appeared where his arms crossed.

But that's exactly what Dai Mubai wanted to see.

The fourth soul skill, White Tiger Meteor Shower!

Centered on the body, countless fist-sized golden orbs of light appear around it, each attacking with one-tenth of its own soul power. They can be used as group attack soul skills or to lock onto a single person for single-target attacks.

Dai Mubai's target was only Tie Wu, so the White Tiger Meteor Shower would naturally only lock onto Tie Wu, and countless golden lights attacked.

Tie Wu's figure was immediately enveloped in countless golden lights.

Having been hit by the second and fourth soul skills in succession, Dai Mubai was confident that Tie Wu must have suffered serious injuries.

Next, we must deliver the final blow.

With his first, third, and fifth spirit rings lighting up simultaneously, the three amplifying spirit skills significantly boosted Dai Mubai's physique. Possessing a top-tier beast spirit, his physical strength was absolutely outstanding among spirit masters of the same level.

"boom"

With both feet gathering strength, he leaped up like a tiger descending a mountain, charging into the golden light.

The ferocious tiger claws came straight for Tie Wu's chest.

"It's time to end this, kid. You'd better think about how to kneel down and call me grandpa later."

The tiger claw tore open Tie Wu's chest, but the next second, it turned into a ball of flame and spread.

This is Tie Wu's second soul skill, Flame Clone!
The one who blocked the White Tiger Meteor Shower was his self-created soul skill, Heavenly Fire Transformation; three-colored flames transformed into a spiral shield around him, perfectly blocking the White Tiger Meteor Shower, and using the golden light of the White Tiger Meteor Shower, he obscured everyone's vision. As Dai Mubai rushed into the golden light, Tie Wu used his second soul skill, leaving a fiery clone in place.

"what?"

"Why don't you think about how to call Grandpa later?" Tie Wu's voice rang out behind Dai Mubai.

The ten-thousand-year soul ring beneath Tie Wu continued to flicker, and the three Rings of Fierce Hell merged, greatly increasing their power.

This terrifying aura made Dai Mubai feel a sense of foreboding.

Tie Wu's judgment of the battlefield was extremely accurate. When the Ring of Hell struck, he gave Dai Mubai no chance to dodge. He had to withstand the Ring of Hell head-on.

With the amplification from his three soul skills, Dai Mubai's physical strength might actually be able to withstand the Ring of Hell.

But as Tie Wu unleashed the Ring of Hell, his fourth spirit ring lit up.

Fourth Soul Skill: Flame Shattering Strike!

With its explosive three-colored flames and the added boost from its right arm soul bone, the power of its fourth soul ring rivals that of a ten-thousand-year soul skill.

Can you, Dai Mubai, block the Ring of Hell and simultaneously withstand the combined effect of two great soul skills?

"boom"

Exploding flames appeared on the battle arena like a vortex, and a scorched figure was sent flying backward from the vortex. He barely managed to adjust his posture in the air and landed in a very disheveled state.

"You blocked it?"

Tie Wu thought he could use this to defeat Dai Mubai, but he only seriously injured him, leaving Dai Mubai with the strength to fight again.

Comparing the situations of both sides at this point, the outcome is already quite clear.

Tie Wu's arms were slightly injured, but Dai Mubai was clearly seriously injured, and even standing was very difficult for him.

"This is bad. If Mu Bai loses to this kid, the situation will be very unfavorable." Zhao Wuji's voice was tinged with anxiety, not only because he was worried about Dai Mu Bai on the Soul Battle Stage, but also because he was anxious about the stakes they would have to pay if they lost this battle.

I thought it would be a sure victory in this battle, but I never expected my opponent to be so formidable.

At this moment, Flander's lips curled up, as if he had thought of a solution.

"Flander, what idea have you come up with this time?" Yu Xiaogang glanced at Flander beside him, already having some guesses in his mind.

"It's nothing, it's just that since it's a verbal bet, we can decide when to redeem it for them."

Just as I thought! Yu Xiaogang added in his mind.

"Isn't this too..."

Compared to Flander's shrewdness and demeanor, Ning Rongrong clearly lacked experience in this area.

The royal family members and Ning Fengzhi and others pretended not to hear, as this method was obviously easier for them to accept than kneeling down to admit defeat.

At the end, however, they all left the stands in silence.

On the battle stage, three-colored flames enveloped the wolf's claws, and the Explosive Flame ability made Iron Weapon's attacks even more destructive.

Dai Mubai was powerless to retaliate, but the thought of defeat was too much for his personality to allow. He would rather die on the Soul Fighting Stage than admit defeat and surrender.

"Is this all you've got? Not even enough to scratch my itch." Dai Mubai tried to provoke Tie Wu.

But all he got in response was Tie Wu's expressionless face; he had seen through Dai Mubai's plan.

"boom"

Tie Wu flashed behind Dai Mubai and knocked him unconscious.
