Douluo: Martial Soul Nine-Tailed Fox, I am the White Fox Emperor
Chapter 266 The Candidates for the Otherworld
Timing is just so unfortunate.
This time, Qian Renxue's Angel God Test requires her to fight against seven elders one by one and win!
Of course, given Qian Renxue's current cultivation level, it's impossible for her to defeat those seven old monsters.
Even though Qian Renxue's overall strength was comparable to that of a level 95 Super Douluo after receiving the inheritance.
But putting everything else aside, she absolutely cannot defeat Qian Daoliu and Jin E, who are both level 99 and 98 respectively!
Therefore, the rules of the divine examination actually impose certain restrictions on these high-level worshippers.
Originally, Qian Daoliu was thinking that everyone would go easy on her and let his granddaughter pass the test easily.
However, this idea was strongly opposed by Qian Renxue herself!
She said that if she passed the divine test because they let her pass easily, it would be extremely detrimental to her future development!
She didn't want to fall too far behind Xiaobai!
These words left Qian Daoliu and the other retainers feeling both immensely gratified and bewildered.
His own granddaughter had gotten into a fight with Xiaobai.
Now, here's the problem.
Hu Bai urgently needs top-tier combatants to form a team.
However, on the Spirit Hall's side, none of their top combatants were free to leave because they were part of Qian Renxue's divine test.
This is very embarrassing.
Qian Daoliu's deep gaze fell on Hu Bai, and he pondered for a moment:
"Xiao Bai, is there a specified start date for your sixth test?"
This is a crucial issue, as it relates to the Spirit Hall's future strategic plans and Qian Renxue's assessment progress.
Hu Bai pondered for a moment, recalling the message conveyed by the deity in his mind.
"About a month, the deity left a message saying that after a month, divine light would descend and teleport me directly to the plane where the assessment is taking place."
Qian Daoliu's facial expression kept changing.
"A month?"
He stopped, a resolute glint in his eyes.
“A month is just enough time for Xiaoxue to complete her small assessment. How about this, apart from me, who needs to stay at the Spirit Hall to guard against any unforeseen circumstances, you can take one of the other six old guys with you.”
"If Xiaoxue can defeat one of them within a month, that person will go with you."
Hu Bai was slightly pleased with Qian Daoliu's decision.
He was still struggling with the selection of personnel, since this trip was to another world, and those who were too weak would just be cannon fodder. The most powerful combat forces in the entire Douluo Continent were undoubtedly gathered in the Hall of Worship of the Spirit Hall.
"Then thank you very much, Grandpa Qian!"
Qian Daoliu waved his hand helplessly: "It's unfortunate that this assessment happened this time. Otherwise, I really hoped that those old guys would go with you to see what it's like."
As Qian Daoliu spoke, he used his spiritual power to summon the people from the Offering Hall.
Hu Bai then said, "This trip is a divine test for me, and for those who are going with me, it is also a tremendous opportunity. If we are lucky, we may also be able to improve our strength."
"Actually, what I really wanted to bring along were Uncle Ju and Uncle Gui. Their martial soul fusion skill, 'Bipolar Stillness Domain,' would definitely be incredibly effective against those rulers."
"Moreover, given their talent and accumulated experience, if they could obtain rewards such as increasing the age of their spirit rings or directly increasing their spirit power level, it would be a tremendous change that would transform them!"
If Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo's ninth spirit rings were red, the control effect of their spirit fusion skill would definitely undergo a qualitative change!
However, the reality is that the two of them should still be in Tiandou City, and it's unknown how their divine test with Nana is going.
At Qian Daoliu's summons, Qian Renxue and six elders appeared at the Papal Palace not long afterward.
The moment Qian Renxue saw Hu Bai, a captivating smile bloomed on her cool and beautiful face, and her once majestic golden eyes were now filled with tenderness and longing.
She stepped forward, ignoring her grandfather and the group of old worshippers behind her, and threw herself into Hu Bai's arms.
"you are back."
These four simple words contain endless longing.
Hu Bai smiled and ruffled her hair, enjoying this moment of tenderness.
Everyone present was one of their own. Several of the elders and Qian Daoliu watched this scene with knowing smiles.
After the tender moment, Hu Bai cleared his throat and recounted the contents of his sixth test to everyone in detail.
When they heard that Hu Bai was going to be teleported to another dimension and could bring seven helpers, the eyes of the worshippers present all gleamed to some extent.
They are all powerful figures standing at the pinnacle of the Douluo Continent, and have been lonely for far too long.
A whole new world held a fatal attraction for them!
However, after listening, the Second Elder, Golden Crocodile Douluo, shook his head heavily and was the first to express his opinion.
He glanced at Qian Renxue and sighed, "Then I guess it's not going to work. Although Xiaoxue is very talented, it's still too difficult for her to beat me within a month."
He was telling the truth. As a level 98 Super Douluo, and with his ninth spirit ring being one of only two red ones besides Qian Daoliu!
Even with her martial soul evolving and her soul power reaching level 85, it would be almost impossible for Qian Renxue to cross this huge gap within a month.
The two brothers, Qianjun Douluo and Jiangmo Douluo, exchanged a glance and shook their heads in unison.
Qianjun Douluo said, "The test that we two brothers are giving Xiaoxue is not just a one-on-one battle, but more importantly, a tacit understanding in our teamwork. In a one-on-one fight, Xiaoxue may have a chance to find our weakness and win within a month."
The Demon-Slaying Douluo added, "But if the two of us brothers join forces, the pressure on Xiaoxue will increase exponentially. In just one month, she will probably find it difficult to adapt to our fighting rhythm."
Their words were not excuses, but facts.
The tests that the angel god put on Qian Renxue were all full of profound meaning.
The reason for having her challenge the seven great masters was to allow her to make up for her lack of practical experience in the shortest possible time.
Furthermore, he thoroughly understood his evolved six-winged angel martial soul and formed a mature and effective combat system.
It can be said that this challenge was the ultimate sparring match tailor-made for Qian Renxue.
Moreover, the rewards for the Divine Exam should be much more generous than before!
Hearing the words of the other elders, Qian Renxue felt a little anxious. She held Hu Bai's hand tightly and said hastily, "I will do my best!" She didn't want her own assessment to delay Hu Bai's important matter.
If it weren't for the fact that she also had to undergo a divine trial, she would have wanted to go with them.
Just when everyone was feeling a bit overwhelmed, a voice rang out.
"How about this, I'll do it."
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw that it was one of the Seven Elders, the Light Feather Douluo who possessed the Light Feather Divine Bow Martial Soul.
He was tall and handsome.
The Light Feather Douluo smiled and analyzed, "My Light Feather Divine Bow is a typical ranged attack martial soul. Although my soul power is as high as level 97, when it comes to one-on-one duels, it is actually a disadvantage for a pure archer like me."
He shrugged and continued, "My advantage lies in my extremely long range, terrifying attack frequency, and the power of my arrows after they've been charged. I believe in 'only attacking, no defending, and I'll be unparalleled.' But that also means that my close-combat ability is the weakest among the seven."
"As long as Xiaoxue can adapt to my attack rhythm and find the pattern to successfully get close to me, then my defeat is basically inevitable."
"Giving her a month to challenge me, I think she has the best chance of success among all the candidates."
These words were reasonable and logical, and everyone nodded in agreement.
Bow-type martial spirits are different from sword-type martial spirits.
The Sword Martial Soul can unleash sword energy from afar and defend by wielding a sword up close, making it both offensive and defensive.
But what about the bow and arrow spirit? Once an enemy gets close enough to get to your face, you're completely helpless and can only use the bow as a stick.
Of course, Guangling Douluo was able to become a level 97 Title Douluo, so he must have his own means of survival and couldn't possibly be that fragile.
There are also restrictions on him in this divine test. The simplest restriction is that none of them can use their Martial Soul True Body, and there are also requirements for their Soul Skills.
Someone like him can only use the first four soul skills.
Therefore, among the seven people present, Qian Renxue has a very high probability of winning against him.
Looking at Hu Bai with a hint of longing in his eyes, Guangling Douluo added with a smile, "Moreover, to be honest, I also really want to see for myself just how magnificent the outside world is."
As a fellow ranged attack martial soul, Azure Phoenix Douluo could only smile helplessly upon hearing this.
"Then let you take advantage of this opportunity, you're right. Otherwise, I'd really like to go along and join in the fun, but unfortunately, the circumstances don't allow it."
Qingluan Douluo's martial soul is the Qingluan Divine Bird. Although she is also good at ranged attacks, as a flying martial soul, her mobility and close combat ability are far superior to Guangling Douluo's. It will be much more difficult for Qian Renxue to defeat her.
Thus, the first candidate was decided.
Qian Daoliu nodded in satisfaction and began to make plans.
"Alright, now we have three confirmed candidates. One is Wang Qiu'er, another is Sword Douluo Chen Xin, which we agreed on before, and now we have added Guang Ling."
There are four spots left.
Qian Daoliu's gaze swept over everyone present, his brows furrowing slightly.
"Currently, the Spirit Hall has some titled Douluo in vain, as well as three others: Serpent Spear, Porcupine, and Ghost Leopard. However, their strength is still somewhat insufficient for going to another world."
"Little Bai, your parents, and Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo—these four would be the best choices, but unfortunately..."
Unfortunately, none of them are in Wuhun City, and it's unknown when they will be able to return.
Little did Qian Daoliu know that the four people he was talking about, plus Hu Bai's brother Xie Yue, had all been arranged to accompany him to the Divine Examination.
Even if he comes back, he probably won't be able to accompany Hu Bai to another dimension.
I wonder if these gods secretly coordinated their assessments, because they were all almost identical.
Qian Daoliu did not include Gu Rong, the Bone Douluo.
After all, Chen Xin, the Sword Douluo of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, has decided to follow Hu Bai to another world. Therefore, as Ning Fengzhi's other protector, Gu Rong must stay behind to protect his safety.
However, just as Qian Daoliu was about to continue selecting candidates, a voice rang out:
"Great Elder, if possible, Uncle Bone and I would also like to go together."
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the speaker was none other than Ning Fengzhi, the sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School who had been silent for a long time!
Qian Daoliu frowned, and even Hu Bai was somewhat surprised.
Seemingly sensing everyone's confusion, Ning Fengzhi smiled gently and calmly explained:
"Since Your Highness is going to another plane, having a support-type Soul Master in the team would be of great help."
He paused, then continued earnestly, "Although with your cultivation levels, my soul power might not be able to provide the boost for too long. However..."
Ning Fengzhi changed the subject:
"With my distraction control and Fusion Ring talent, I can still sustain a few minutes of high-intensity combat without any problem."
"Fusion ring?"
They had naturally heard of the Ring Fusion talent, which was on par with the Ring Explosion talent.
However, compared to exploding rings, fusion rings rely more on talent.
Even with expert instruction, if you don't have the talent, you simply won't learn it.
Many people have a stereotype that both exploding and fusing rings are the exclusive domain of Soul Masters, and believe that the power of exploding rings must be stronger than that of fusing rings.
However, in reality, their mechanisms are completely different.
The "Exploding Ring" technique aims for an instantaneous burst of power, channeling all the resulting soul power into the martial soul. It relies solely on the martial soul's inherent killing power, without depending on any soul skills. This technique is undoubtedly the most suitable for offensive-type battle soul masters.
However, the drawbacks are also obvious. A Soul Master's Soul Ring can easily be ruined if he is not careful, and the requirements for his physique are extremely high. He needs to have a fully equipped Soul Bone, which must be at least ten thousand years old!
Ring fusion combines the power of two or more soul rings into one. Its core purpose is not simply to increase power, but to improve the output efficiency of soul skills!
This is the same principle as the fact that the power of the fourth soul skill used by a Soul Master is completely different from that used by a Title Douluo.
Titled Douluo have more soul power, and the quality of their soul power is also higher, so their output efficiency is naturally higher.
For a Soul Master, fusing all Soul Rings and injecting them into the Ninth Soul Skill can indeed make the Ninth Soul Skill extremely powerful.
However, for support-type Soul Masters, the significance of ring fusion lies in controlling the application of support Soul Skills more effectively and precisely!
It allows support Soul Masters to use every bit of their Soul Power effectively, maximizing the amplification effect without any waste! This is crucial in battles where multiple powerful individuals are supported.
If ordinary auxiliary systems are like "flood irrigation," then Ningfengzhi's "Fusion Ring" auxiliary system is like "precision drip irrigation"!
In the ever-changing battlefield, such precise control is often of great value.
