Civilian Soul Masters in Douluo World

Chapter 393 Assumption
"Lord Tiewu, in order to break through this defense line, we must first break the formation."

On the battlefield, the great formation formed by the Heaven Dou Empire's army blocked the invasion of the Spirit Empire's army.

The role of battle formations on the battlefield cannot be ignored. They can unite the army into a whole and unleash three or even four times the normal combat power.

The strength of the Spirit Empire lies in its Spirit Master legions, and both empires have preserved their original fighting methods, one of which is formation.

However, in recent years, both empires have also made progress, with armies composed of low-level soul masters training in formations, which has yielded quite good results.

What blocked Tie Wu's army of the Spirit Empire was a mixed force of Spirit Masters and ordinary people. The center of the formation was composed of Spirit Master soldiers, while the surrounding area was filled with ordinary soldiers.

As long as the center of the formation is not destroyed, the formation can continue to operate. When ordinary soldiers are killed within the formation, new soldiers will fill the gap.

To break the formation, you must first destroy its core.

This army of the Spirit Empire, besides Tie Wu, a Spirit Saint, also has two other seven-ring Spirit Saints. They were both seriously injured when they tried to forcefully break through the formation.

"You all stand by and watch as I break through his formation," Tie Wu said coldly.

"My lord, shall we wait for Lord Zhao Lu and the others to recover before breaking the formation together?" the lieutenant asked.

The Zhao Lu he mentioned is another Soul Saint.

But Tie Wu clearly had no such intention; he needed to break through the opponent's defenses as quickly as possible.

Behind this defensive line are cities like Mano City. If the Heavenly Dou Empire's army is given a chance to catch its breath, they will definitely fill the vacancies.

At that time, they will definitely conscript soldiers from the cities in the rear, and my father may appear on the battlefield.

This is also why Tie Wu is in such a hurry. He must break through the enemy lines, capture Manno City, and then use his position in the army to protect the two elders. This is the safest course of action.

"Even with Lord Zhao Lu and Lord Yu Yao joining forces, they can't break the formation. Let's play it safe..."

"They dare to compare themselves to me?"

Tie Wu's cold gaze fell on the deputy general, who immediately fell silent and dared not utter another word.

"boom"

Blazing flames erupted from beneath Tie Wu, the three-colored flames carrying an unparalleled sense of oppression.

Two yellow, two purple, and three black!

The more powerful a Soul Master appears, the more it can boost the morale of one's own soldiers.

Sensing Tie Wu's formidable aura, the soldiers of the Martial Soul Empire roared in response.

The three-colored flames transform into wings, granting Iron Warrior the ability to fly briefly.

The scorching temperature, the striking three-colored flames, and the luster of the seven spirit rings undoubtedly attracted the attention of the Heaven Dou faction.

"My lord, the Spirit Empire has produced another Soul Saint."

"So what? A single Soul Saint can't break our formation." Zhang Li didn't think that Tie Wu could break the formation just because he appeared.

With three yellow and two purple rings, five soul rings appeared beneath him; he was a five-ring Soul King.

The appearance of wolf-like spirit beast characteristics on his body was related to his martial spirit. He leaped into the center of the formation, determined to personally control the formation and deliver a heavy blow to the Martial Spirit Empire.

Do you really think you can break my formation with just a Soul Saint? You're overestimating yourself.

Tie Wu's sixth spirit ring lit up, its black luster putting pressure on the Heaven Dou Empire. In the Heaven Dou Empire, the strongest spirit master was only a five-ring spirit king; it was almost impossible to find a ten-thousand-year spirit ring.

Sixth Soul Skill: Blazing Meteor Shower!
Three-colored flames surrounded Tie Wu's body, flapping his fiery wings. Tie Wu flew into the air, intending to use the descent from the sky to unleash his sixth soul skill, which would undoubtedly elevate its power to another level.

The three-colored flames grew increasingly ferocious, resembling a real meteorite striking the ground, and their powerful aura commanded respect.

Tie Wu's target was the core of the formation.

"what?"

Zhang Li was startled. This kind of attack, where soldiers bypass the outer perimeter and directly attack the core of the formation, poses the greatest threat to the formation.

Fortunately, he had made preparations in advance, namely to prevent the Spirit Empire from having flying spirit masters.

There is a special metal arrangement at the core of the formation. Soul Master soldiers standing on it can absorb the soul power they release, which will eventually converge on Zhang Li, the Soul Master who controls the formation.

It's somewhat similar to the operation of a soul tool, using auxiliary formations to condense soul power, with the core formation converting the soul power into attack or defense.

The soul power of the soul master soldier condensed on Zhang Li's body, and the enormous soul power was used to release defensive soul skills.

He released an energy barrier to block Tie Wu's sixth soul skill.

Previously, the Soul Saints of the Spirit Empire did not have the ability to fly and could only break through the formation by fighting on foot. As a result, they were injured by the soldiers in the formation. Even if you are a Soul Saint, you are still at risk of being injured when facing continuous attacks.

Once inside the formation, you'll face attacks from all directions.

Tie Wu's attack method was based on their experience of failure, choosing to break through the central formation directly from the air.

"boom"

The collision between the two forces created a significant impact on the surrounding Heavenly Dou soldiers, even causing the formation to momentarily stagnate. This provided a perfect opportunity for the Martial Soul Empire soldiers launching an attack from the outside.

Zhang Li faced Tie Wu's attack head-on and was unable to give any instructions to the soldiers in the formation. Fortunately, his deputy general appeared in time and barely stopped the rout.

However, this also caused the formation to begin to show flaws.

This army of the Spirit Empire not only has Soul Saints, but also thirteen six-ring Soul Emperors.

"呲呲"

The energy barrier released by Zhang Li cracked, and the defensive soul skill that he had gathered from all his soul master soldiers could not stop the opponent.
"Your total soul power has reached the level of a Soul Douluo, but you are only a Soul King. No matter how much soul power you have, the effect you can exert is limited," Tie Wu said calmly.

The array before him gave rise to a strange thought: the array itself was not the problem, but the Soul Master who controlled it was only a Soul King, whose own realm limited the release of Soul Power.

If these Soul Master soldiers were transformed into conductors, conductors made of rare metals with excellent conductivity for Soul Power; the one at the center of the formation would not be a Soul Master, but a special metal that could fully unleash the power of Soul Power.

If the combined soul power of one hundred Soul Masters reaches the Soul Douluo level, what about one thousand Soul Masters, one thousand Soul Kings...?

In this way, even a large number of them can still pose a threat to top-tier Soul Masters.

Just as Tie Wu continued to speculate, the energy barrier that was resisting his sixth soul skill began to hiss, and more and more cracks appeared.

"It seems you have no way to stop me anymore." Tie Wu sneered, and the three-colored flames surged again. Under the terrifying attack, the energy barrier was instantly destroyed.

"boom"

The three-colored flames transformed into a firestorm that swept through the center of the formation, annihilating all the Soul Master soldiers of the Heaven Dou Empire. Without the Soul Master soldiers, it was no longer a formation.
