Douluo: Dream Overlord

Chapter 113 Battle Against the Shrek Seven Devils (7)

"Time! Do you dare to fight me!?"

Tang San looked at Shi Guang with a provocative expression.

He had already decided to use the Yama's Decree on Time.

It wasn't just because the other party repeatedly undermined his confidence, but also because the other party's background wasn't as powerful as Dugu Yan's; they were the kind of person who remained unknown.

Dugu Yan was unaware that she had just gone through a life-or-death ordeal, and the boy opposite her had let her go.

Shi Guang sized up Tang San's defiant expression and immediately understood the other's ulterior motives.

"I see. So you intend to use hidden weapons to defeat or kill me, thus laying the foundation for victory?"

Shi Guang pondered that if he didn't go, the other party might very well shift their target to Dugu Yan.

Dugu Yan's death was just that—a death. But her life was intertwined with the grand plan of time.

Dugu Bo, as one of the rare Title Douluos in the Soul Master world, is a force to be reckoned with, even though his strength is at the bottom level of the Title Douluo level.

To fulfill the dream of time and establish his own Soul Master kingdom, Dugu Bo is clearly a good motivation.

If the other party finds out that Dugu Yan died in a battle in which they were fighting, they will definitely not let them off the hook, given their personality.

As Dugu Bo's only remaining relative in the world, any mishap to Dugu Yan would cause Dugu Bo unbearable pain and even drive him mad, leading him to slaughter everyone connected to Dugu Yan.

This is one of them.

Secondly, he had promised Dugu Bo that he would protect Dugu Yan when they were in the forest, and now that she had died, he had clearly broken his promise.

If something like this happens, who will be responsible for the consequences? Who would trust someone who can't keep their promises?

Time was filled with thoughts, but after looking at Tang San, he finally said, "Fine! I'll come and fight you! Dugu Yan, you and I will switch places!"

Upon hearing this, Dugu Yan, though puzzled, nodded and switched fighting positions with Shi Guang.

Her soul power was indeed almost depleted after the long battle.

Unlike Tang San, who possessed the Xuan Tian Gong, she couldn't continuously replenish her soul power even in battle, achieving a state of perpetual vitality.

Her soul power was still somewhat turbulent and needed to be suppressed when she broke through to the Soul Master level, and she had also consumed a lot of it in the battle against Zhu Zhuqing.

This little girl's self-created soul skill is really good; it almost completely deceived Dugu Yan's vision. Fortunately, she also has a new area-of-effect fourth soul skill.

While pondering, Dugu Yan silently recovered her soul power, all the while keeping an eye on Tang San's battle with Shi Guang.

"Heh, you called me here just to watch you get beaten up?"

Using his superior mental strength, Shi Guang completely anticipated Tang San's actions. He punched Tang San, who was blocking his arms, and sent him flying. He said with disdain.

Tang San remained silent. His face was pale from overuse of his soul power, but fortunately, his Mysterious Heaven Skill could still sustain him and allow him to continue fighting.

"Don't get too cocky, Time! I'm just waiting for the battle to end!"

While making excuses to delay the battle, Tang San secretly used his Purple Demon Eye to observe Shi Guang's attack and defense routes, so as to calculate a reasonable time to strike and use the Yama's Decree to attack a suitable position.

But he discovered to his despair that the trajectory of Time's movement was just as unpredictable as his own, making it extremely difficult for him to calculate the other party's movement route.

This is the power of time's spiritual detection. It can detect Tang San's spiritual detection and adjust its own route using the calculation route of the other party's detection.

Tang San, unaware that his scheme had been seen through by Shi Guang, was still wide-eyed, using his Purple Demon Eye to calculate his opponent's landing point.

"What's wrong? Are you still calculating my location?"

Suddenly, Time spoke.

Tang San's eyes widened; he hadn't expected the other party to have detected his probe.

"How is this possible!? Is this also a special characteristic of spirit-type martial souls!?"

Tang San exclaimed that it was impossible. His Purple Demon Eye, which had always been undetectable even when facing Flander and Zhao Wuji, had actually been exposed to their sight.

"Let me guess, you're trying to figure out where I'll be, so you can use your hidden weapons against me, right?"

Time chuckled and said softly, "Are you going to use your hidden blade, or the crossbow you used against the Berserkers, or some new kind of concealed weapon?"

Upon hearing this, Tang San broke out in a cold sweat, which condensed into beads and trickled down his forehead.

He hadn't expected that the other party would recognize his hidden weapons and even know of their existence.

This is clearly because the other side frequently watches the results of their own matches.

"Damn it! That despicable bastard! He actually secretly observed my every move while I was fighting!"

Tang San clearly mistook Shi Guang for a stalker who had been spying on him, and his eyes showed fear and vigilance.

My perspective on time has become much stronger than before.

This is an extremely dangerous mission.

Tang San pondered that his Yama's Decree could only be used once.

However, since he cannot lock onto time now, it means that Tang San does not have a guaranteed victory.

Having grown up in the Tang Clan in his previous life, Tang San learned their cautious nature, and he certainly wouldn't easily fight a battle he wasn't confident of winning.

In that case, we won't use the King of Hell's Decree on Time.

Since the other party has revealed their hidden weapon, they must be wary of him.

Even if Tang San forcibly uses the Yama's Decree, the opponent will most likely sense the parabolic trajectory using their mental power, thus allowing Tang San to evade the attack.

As Tang San pondered, the battle around him began to unfold within his thoughts.

Ning Rongrong and Oscar eventually couldn't withstand the relentless gale and wind elemental attacks from Yu Feng.

During a defensive maneuver when their soul power was insufficient, Oscar and Ning Rongrong were thrown over by a gust of wind. Flander caught them and carried them off the field.

"Damn it! That damn birdman! Why is his martial soul effect so powerful now!?"

Oscar stared in disbelief and dismay as Yu Feng, who had fallen to the ground to recover his soul power after expending too much of it, looked on with a mixture of confusion and frustration.

As a support-type Soul Master, he felt extremely frustrated that he couldn't protect the woman he loved in battle.

"Why isn't my martial soul a power-attack or control-type martial soul! Even an agility-attack type martial soul would be a thousand times, ten thousand times stronger than my sausage martial soul!"

Oscar roared inwardly, vowing that once he returned to Shrek Academy, he would study his self-created soul skill diligently and strive to develop an offensive self-created soul skill.

"Oscar, it's okay. Remember, failure is only temporary."

Ning Rongrong's face was ashen. As the apple of the eye of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School since childhood, she had already experienced two consecutive failures.
