Transmigrating into Douluo Continent as Dai Mubai, a mutated Gengjin White Tiger

Chapter 17 Tang Hao's Plans

As all nine spirit rings appeared, the last red spirit ring seemed to radiate killing intent. Tang Hao spoke slowly in a cold tone.

How do you know who I am?

Dai Mubai watched as Tang Hao calmly and slowly explained the reason.

"A Blue Silver Grass spirit master actually reached level 29 spirit power at the age of 12, which means that his innate spirit power is at least level 9 or even close to the maximum level. No matter how Blue Silver Grass mutates, it cannot reach this level, which means that he is very likely to be the legendary twin spirit."

Upon hearing this, Tang Hao nodded in approval of Dai Mubai's analytical skills and extensive knowledge, and continued speaking.

"That's true, but that's not enough to prove my identity."

Dai Mubai glanced at Tang Hao, noticing that his murderous aura had dissipated somewhat, and then calmly continued his explanation.

"However, Tang San's strength is not small either. When I fought him, I found that his strength was not something that a control-type soul master of the same level could possess. It was even close to the strength of a power-attack-type battle soul master. This shows that Tang San's second spirit is at least a power-attack type. And the quality of the two spirits cannot be lower than each other. At this moment, I thought of someone very similar. Twelve years ago, the Spirit Hall was chasing the 12-year-old Blue Silver Emperor spirit beast. That battle was also the battle that made Haotian Douluo famous."

"You actually know about what happened 12 years ago? And you even know about the Blue Silver Emperor!?" Tang Hao's expression suddenly changed, and the killing intent in his eyes as he looked at Dai Mubai gradually intensified, his tone becoming agitated.

In Tang Hao's eyes, anyone who knew all this so clearly must be a member of the Spirit Hall. However, Tang Hao still intended to let Dai Mubai finish speaking. He was just a Soul Master, and no matter how much trouble he caused, he was no match for him.

"That's right, I am Dai Mubai, the third prince of the Star Luo Empire. As for why I know about the existence of the Blue Silver Emperor, it's because I once read an ancient book. The Blue Silver Grass clan should also have their own emperor, the Blue Silver Emperor, a 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Grass soul beast. It should be the legendary Blue Silver Emperor. I don't know the specific details after that battle, but I heard my father say that the Blue Silver Emperor had already given birth to a son at that time. So, assuming that Tang San is that child, everything can be explained. As for your identity, it's because my martial soul is extremely sensitive to killing intent. The terrifying killing intent on your body should be the Killing God Domain. Currently, only Haotian Douluo and the current Pope of the Spirit Hall possess it."

After Dai Mubai finished explaining, he summoned his martial soul, the Gengjin White Tiger. The moment the Gengjin White Tiger martial soul appeared, Tang Hao actually felt that his Clear Sky Hammer martial soul was being suppressed.

Tang Hao initially found it impossible. His martial soul was the Clear Sky Hammer, so how could it feel suppressed? After carefully sensing it, Tang Hao reluctantly confirmed that his Clear Sky Hammer did indeed feel suppressed.

Tang Hao looked at Dai Mubai's Gengjin White Tiger Martial Soul and immediately felt threatened, but more than that, he was curious. He had fought against members of the Star Luo Empire's royal family when he was young and had never felt suppressed in the slightest. How could Dai Mubai, merely a Soul Master, suppress his Martial Soul? So he asked again.

"You claim to be a prince of the Star Luo Empire. When I fought against your Star Luo royal family members when I was young, I didn't feel suppressed in the slightest. This shows that your martial soul is far more powerful than the inherited martial soul of your Star Luo lineage. Why is that?"

Dai Mubai felt a headache coming on as he watched Tang Hao's killing intent surge once again. He should have known better than to pretend. There was still no good way to deal with Tang Hao.

However, Dai Mubai didn't really regret it. After all, he and Tang Hao would eventually have a life-or-death confrontation, so getting familiar with the place now wouldn't be a bad thing.

"My martial spirit underwent a legendary atavism mutation a year ago due to an accident. This is the peak form of our lineage in ancient times. This is its current state."

Dai Mubai knew that a simple spirit mutation wouldn't be enough to fool Tang Hao, so he came up with another excuse: a primordial mutation. After all, there was some basis to this claim, but there was very little information available. There was only one rumor about a seemingly decent but ordinary Iron Sword spirit that accidentally mutated into a divine sword, and later this person jumped from Soul Master to Title Douluo.

Upon hearing the term "atavism mutation," Tang Hao looked at the Gengjin Martial Soul and fell into deep thought. He had heard similar rumors before, but at the time he couldn't verify their veracity, since it was a rumor spread by the Spirit Hall.

However, Tang Hao reluctantly agreed with Dai Mubai's statement, since the White Tiger Martial Soul was indeed among the top-tier Martial Souls. At its peak in ancient times, there might have been a ruler similar to the Blue Silver Emperor among the White Tiger Martial Souls.

However, Dai Mubai's Gengjin White Tiger Martial Soul must have reached a level similar to the god-level Martial Soul Six-Winged Angel, otherwise he wouldn't be able to suppress his Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul. As for why he didn't achieve godhood, there are rumors that either his Martial Soul backfired or he didn't become a god. After all, the possibility of such a powerful Martial Soul dying young is very small.

However, the final possibility still made Tang Hao want to kill him. This kid's martial soul and temperament are extremely terrifying. Moreover, he is already a Soul Master at such a young age. If he is going to be enemies with Xiao San, it would be better to kill him as soon as possible.

However, Tang Hao hesitated. If word got out, the Clear Sky Sect would face trouble, and it would be a pity to have already killed such a peerless genius. After all, Xiao San still needed the help of many people to have a chance to overthrow the Spirit Hall. So Tang Hao decided to ask this boy why he had resorted to such a vicious act, and if the answer was wrong, he would kill him on the spot.

"With such cultivation at such a young age, why were you so ruthless as the chief examiner of the final round?"

Dai Mubai understood Tang Hao's unspoken meaning: if he answered incorrectly, he would likely be killed on the spot. After all, attacking Tang San and Tang Hao under the very nose of Tang Hao's father was indeed quite ruthless.

"Of course it's a reprimand. Tang San attacked his classmate so viciously in the beginning because of a verbal dispute. His killing intent was too strong. Later, in his duel with me, he still used those crooked and evil methods. Instead of thinking about how to use his martial soul to stall for time, he only used this method blindly, which only delayed his cultivation. I hit him a little too hard, but I just hope that he will wake up from this and be warned that only by cultivating his martial soul and controlling his killing intent can he go further. This is also what I, as the final examiner, have to do."

Dai Mubai quickly identified the reasons why Tang San was currently disliked by Tang Hao, and then explained them with some finesse and tone.

Upon hearing this, Tang Hao nodded. Dai Mubai's actions and Oscar's words at the end of the daytime competition cleared up the fact that Dai Mubai hadn't intentionally caused trouble.

Furthermore, Tang Hao held Tang San in contempt for his obsession with so-called hidden weapons, as he himself was a traditional Soul Master. He naturally looked down on such things, though Tang San's display of killing intent had indeed become somewhat frequent.

While there were reasons for his actions, revealing his murderous intent in this way was indeed detrimental to his future. Moreover, Tang San did resort to those hidden weapons whenever he encountered a crisis he couldn't resolve, and if this continued, there was a risk that Tang San would go astray.

Having figured everything out, Tang Hao looked at the composed Dai Mubai and couldn't help but feel a surge of admiration. Although the boy's actions were a bit heavy-handed, everything could be explained.

Tang Hao thought it would be a good thing if someone like Dai Mubai could act as an elder brother, admonishing and encouraging Tang San. However, Tang Hao still decided to teach Dai Mubai a lesson for his rash actions.

"Since that's the case, I won't bully you. Take this move from me without activating your martial spirit, and we'll turn the page on this matter."

Upon hearing this, Dai Mubai's face turned serious, but he did not show any fear. He thought to himself, "As expected, it has come. However, there is still a chance if we only have one move." Just as Dai Mubai was about to agree,

Flander and Zhao Wuji ran over from a distance because they sensed an extremely powerful aura around Dai Mubai.

"How dare you! If you want to fight, come find me... Your Majesty."

Zhao Wuji had just arrived, looking domineering and about to utter some harsh words, when he saw the ninth red soul ring. He couldn't help but force himself to smile and give a deep 90-degree bow.

The contrast in speed almost made Dai Mubai burst out laughing.

Upon seeing this, Flander placed his right hand slightly in front of his chest, bowed slowly, and then asked in a cautious tone.

"Your Majesty, I don't know what Mu Bai has done. Please tell me, and I will definitely take him back and teach him a lesson so that he will not cause you any more trouble."

Tang Hao, looking at the two expressionless, spoke in a cold and impatient tone about what he needed to do.

"You two Soul Saints can't control what I do. If the younger one gets beaten, the older one has to step in. If this kid can withstand one of my attacks when I don't activate my Martial Soul, then this matter is over."

Flander and Zhao Wuji were about to speak to dissuade Tang Hao, who was looking impatient, when Dai Mubai stopped them.

"Thank you for your kindness, Dean Flander and Teacher Zhao. I will handle this myself."
