"Uncle Gu, do you have any way to enhance the survivability of us support-type Soul Masters? Relying solely on armor mixed with black gold is ultimately barely enough to provide any defense."

Ning Fengzhi looked at the Bone Douluo in front of him.

"I don't have any other options. There are only a few ways to improve your survival ability: either create your own soul skill, rely on soul bones, or try your luck by digging out some rare defensive soul tools from the ruins."

The ancient banyan tree's withered fingers picked up a piece of raw mutton and placed it on the grill, then sprinkled some seasoning on it.

"Support-type Soul Masters are destined to rely on their partners. It is really difficult for them to have considerable survival ability or combat power on their own."

Ning Fengzhi sighed helplessly.

"If all else fails, we'll have to increase the black gold content in the black gold armor. Our sect's higher-ups should also switch to armor made entirely of black gold. I'll go back to the Iron Dragon Blacksmith Shop in a few days; after all, it concerns our lives and fortunes, so we can't afford to be careless."

Tang Shan could no longer hear what was said after that, clearly indicating that the two had begun to communicate secretly using telepathy.

They were just here to buy armor.

Tang Shan breathed a sigh of relief, as long as it wasn't specifically aimed at him.

"Little brother, try this."

Su Yuntao took a huge roasted lamb leg from the oven and handed it to Tang Shan.

Tangshan didn't hold back, grabbing it and biting it in an instant.

The crispy, tender, crunchy, and fragrant flavors burst and blend in your mouth, causing your saliva to flow like crazy.

Tearing off a large piece of meat and chewing it carefully, it was fatty but not greasy, tender but not dry.

"good to eat!"

Tang Shan kept talking while praising the performance.

Su Yuntao raised his chin smugly.

"How is it? The taste is really not bad, right?"

Tang Shan nodded vigorously.

"Boss, bring two more large lamb legs!"

Su Yuntao called out in the direction of the boss.

"okay!"

The boss worked quickly, processing the lamb leg simply and soon delivering it to the table in Tangshan.

Half an hour later, the two brothers, having eaten and drunk their fill, leaned back in their chairs, lazily unwilling to move.

"Little brother, do you think I can take on two opponents at once?"

Su Yuntao asked casually.

Tang Shan's eyes flashed.

"Why don't you try it and see, brother?"

"Okay, I'll rest a bit more. Once I've digested it a bit more, I'll sign up for the one-on-two Soul Master battle."

About fifteen minutes later, Su Yuntao stood up and stretched, his bones making a cracking sound.

"Little brother, would you like to come along and take a look?"

Tang Shan nodded and pretended to glance around the shops.

"Okay, let's go take a look."

After saying that, the two got up and left the store.

"Feng Zhi, did you hear that? A powerful Soul Master is trying to take on two opponents at once."

Gu Rong put the last piece of mutton into his mouth, his tone filled with interest.

"Uncle Gu, how about we go check out the Soul Arena later?"

Ning Fengzhi suggested.

"But didn't Ke Shuyu also want to eat the lamb from this restaurant? Should we bring some back for her?"

Gu Rong hesitated for a moment. As the head of a sect and a titled Douluo, the two of them had come to this restaurant specifically because Ning Fengzhi's wife liked this kind of food. They came here not only to dine but also to take some food home.

Ning Fengzhi smiled gently: "It's alright. The key to this shop is the ingredients and seasonings. We can take some back and grill them ourselves. It's not much different from grilling them here. In the end, we'll have to do it ourselves anyway."

"It's rare that you're interested in Soul Fighting, Uncle Gu. You should check it out; it'll be a good opportunity to reminisce about my own Soul Fighting experiences from when I was younger."

……

"Welcome to the Grand Arena! Today's 2v2 battles are a bit special, so the ticket price is a little higher, but I guarantee it's absolutely worth it!"

The host, holding a megaphone, tried his best to create a lively atmosphere in the stands.

The enthusiastic shouts resounded throughout the main arena.

"Next, I will introduce the two sides participating in this battle. I will first introduce one player from each side, and then introduce the second player."

The team to my left is called 'Lone Wolf'. I'm sure those of you who frequently come to the main arena are familiar with this name.

That's right, just as everyone expected, one of the team members is none other than Lone Wolf, a Grand Soul Master who maintains an undefeated record in solo Soul Battles, possesses a second Soul Ring of a thousand years, and is considered a veritable testament to the Grandmaster's theory!

Wow!

The cheers rose again, instantly pushing the atmosphere in the entire venue to its peak.

Wearing a wolf-shaped mask, Su Yuntao walked slowly out of the passage with his hands hanging naturally at his sides and his body slightly leaning forward, like a deadly hunter poised to pounce. He exuded an aura of continuous victories.

The private boxes at the top of the stands are forty or fifty square meters in size, with carpets made of spirit beast fur, soft sofas, and paintings that exude nobility, creating an atmosphere of luxury.

Gu Rong, who was leaning back on the sofa, became more interested.

"A second soul ring after a thousand years. I never expected that such a person would exist in this small city of Star."

Ning Fengzhi, who was savoring his wine, also spared some attention to what was happening below.

"Let's see how old he is. If he's suitable, we might try to recruit him into our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. But I wonder how he managed to absorb the second soul ring after a thousand years. Was it through a soul bone or some rare and precious treasure?"

"It's most likely a rare and precious treasure. You know, to absorb a second soul ring of a thousand years, a thousand-year soul bone is far from enough to enhance one's physical attributes. You can't possibly say that this kid possesses the 'Blood River Treasure' ten-thousand-year soul bone, can you? That's not very realistic."

Gu Rong quickly made a judgment.

Mentioning the creator of the second soul ring in a thousand years, Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but sigh: "This master is truly knowledgeable. I wish I could have a conversation with him in person. If I could bring him into our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, that would be even better."

Gu Rong shook his head: "That's probably not very realistic. I've talked with that old bastard before, and we both agree that that master is very likely a super Douluo of level 95 or above. Don't be fooled by the fact that his published theories seem to benefit lower-level Soul Masters. They may seem simple, but they are actually very clear. Before him, even if we had some guesses, they were far less clear and thorough than his explanations."

"Is the opponent's cultivation level truly that profound?"

Upon hearing Gu Rong's words, Ning Fengzhi's expression became more serious.

"It will only be stronger than we imagine."

Gu Rong's tone also carried a hint of respect.

"Feng Zhi, don't be fooled by the fact that most of the theories he publishes are meant to help lower-level Soul Masters cultivate. In reality, these theories are also a breeding ground, providing better conditions for the birth of higher-level Soul Masters."

For example, suppose someone's martial soul is Blue Silver Grass, but they have a powerful backing that provides them with two extremely high-quality soul beasts: a 400-year-old Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear and a 400-year-old Azure Vine. In the past, Feng Zhi, what would you choose? After reading the master's theory, how would you decide?

Ning Fengzhi answered without hesitation: "Before reading the theory, I would definitely choose the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear; after reading it, I would definitely choose the Azure Vine."

"Yes, that master's theory is just like that. It seems simple and straightforward, but it gets straight to the point. If it were me, even if it wasn't a high-level plant soul beast, even if it was just a mid-level plant soul beast, I would choose it without hesitation; even if it was just a low-level plant soul beast, as long as the age was enough, I would hesitate and think about whether the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's soul ring would stifle the future advancement of my martial soul."

"Master, you are truly an extraordinary person!"

At this moment in the arena, after introducing Su Yuntao, the host also introduced one of the members of his opponent's team.

Su Yuntao's opponents this time were a duo called "Sword and Blade Combination." He recognized the sword-wielding Soul Master among them; it was Dao Long, his opponent from his first Soul Battle.

"Next, let me introduce the second member of the 'Sword and Blade Combination'. His code name is 'Sword Qi'. He has a record of 21 wins and 12 losses and is also a powerful Soul Master."

These are all the contestants for this Soul Battle!

As soon as he finished speaking, the main arena fell into a brief silence, followed by a commotion as the audience whispered among themselves, clearly having noticed something was wrong.

The fact that one contestant's information was missing most likely indicates a hosting mishap.

Despite the audience's commotion, the host maintained a smile. Once the atmosphere had built up sufficiently, he brought the megaphone to his lips again: "As you've all probably noticed, there are only three contestants on the field, yet the match is clearly two against two. But I can assure you, this isn't a hosting blunder; it's our Lone Wolf Grand Soul Master taking on two opponents! Just as his title suggests, he's a lone wolf, as formidable as any lone wolf! Let's give the Lone Wolf Grand Soul Master a standing ovation! Regardless of victory or defeat, his courage deserves our utmost respect!"

After a brief silence, cheers erupted, the rolling sound waves like thunder, spreading outwards from the Great Soul Arena.

"Aren't you afraid of causing accidents by manipulating emotions like this?"

Sitting in the stands, Tang Shan looked helplessly at the excited audience around him and couldn't help but admire the clever tactics of the Arena's organizers.

When emotions run high, it's perfectly normal for viewers to make impulsive purchases. This time, the Soul Arena is sure to make a fortune, not to mention the income from betting, it's practically a goldmine.

Looking down at the battle about to unfold, Ning Fengzhi asked the staff member beside him, "Do you have any information on this Soul Master?"

The waitress bowed slightly and replied softly, "Yes, sir. Would you like me to fetch it for you?"

"Bring one over."

"Ok."

The waitress bowed and left the private room.

"Huh? This little guy is not simple. His moves are quite methodical and he has already formed his own style."

Gu Rong watched the confrontation between Su Yuntao and the other two Soul Masters, a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"Have you developed your own fighting style?"

Ning Fengzhi was quite surprised to hear this. You see, only by experiencing many battles and understanding one's own strengths, weaknesses and personality can one gradually develop a unique fighting style, and then study and create one's own soul skills based on that style.

Generally speaking, those who can reach this stage are either true geniuses who can extract the essence from a limited number of battles, or Soul Masters who have been traversing the continent for many years, undergoing countless trials and tribulations, and achieving this level naturally.

But now someone is telling him that a second-ring Soul Master has done this, which is quite unexpected.

"He can't be considered a top-tier combat genius. At this moment, the two sides are evenly matched. If he were a true genius, he could grow in real time during the battle, but this 'Lone Wolf' has not shown any such ability. Although he is becoming more and more adept at handling the situation, it is purely due to the improvement brought about by the accumulation of combat experience. He has some talent, but he is not outstanding."

At that moment, the female waitress who had been there earlier entered the private room carrying a document.

Chapter 38 The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's Ignoring, Suspected Unlocking of a Genetic Lock

"A Soul Master from the Spirit Hall."

After taking the documents from the waitress and gesturing for her to leave, Ning Fengzhi frowned slightly after only flipping through a few pages.

Seeing this, Gu Rong, who was sitting to the side, was also somewhat surprised and asked, "Feng Zhi, is that Lone Wolf Soul Master from the Spirit Hall?"
