Douluo: Dream Overlord

Chapter 156 Searching for Support-Type Soul Beasts

Because the White Tiger Martial Soul is not only cool, but also extremely powerful. As the Martial Soul inherited by the Star Luo Empire's royal family, they must be very familiar with the configuration and use of Soul Rings.

If given a martial soul like Time, he would rather not have a spiritual martial soul, because fighting is a man's romance, not hiding in the shadows.

Moreover, the White Tiger Martial Soul greatly enhances a man's charm.

Regardless of their origin, all White Tiger Soul Masters possess immense charm and striking good looks, a result of certain aspects of their Martial Souls.

Although nobles have intermarried to preserve the best bloodlines, the characteristics brought by martial souls are also a unique feature of soul masters themselves.

The characteristics of a Martial Soul can change a Soul Master's appearance and temperament, and may even alter the Soul Master's appearance, making it resemble the characteristics of the Martial Soul. This is extremely dangerous because, in addition to the inheritance between Martial Souls, the entire body is also connected by the face and bloodline.

If you simply possess a martial spirit but your appearance doesn't match your parents', you'll only be rejected by them. Because if their appearance is different from your child's, it means there will definitely be no intimacy, and it's possible that someone from another family or clan replaced their child.

In such cases, family members usually try to find their child through a bloodline test. Only after confirming that the child is their own will they begin to raise him/her. However, the resources invested will certainly not be as much as those invested in other Soul Master families.

Because appearance is the biggest distinguishing factor among Soul Masters.

If a child doesn't look like his parents, no matter how outstanding or excellent the child is, he still won't be appreciated by his parents because they don't care about appearance and consider him not their child at all.

Time thinks that his appearance is inherited from his parents' genes and looks very similar to Shi Nian, and also has a little bit of his mother's appearance.

Overall, he has a teacher-like appearance. He is at least taller than Tang San before his Wan Ying Huang bloodline was awakened. He looks like a teacher and also has a kind of inexplicable temperament that adds to his image.

This is an aloof temperament inherited from Shi Nian, which makes his temperament somewhat gloomy and gives people a feeling of not wanting to approach him.

But through the illusions of time and the power of an unwavering spirit, his appearance has changed, and his temperament has become peaceful and pleasant, making him inconspicuous.

Time doesn't want to be exposed to others; it prefers you to stay in the shadows, observing everything being planned, like a secret agent.

Time is helpless when it comes to something as innate as temperament. It doesn't actually want to have this temperament, but no matter how much it tries to learn from the interests of the nobility, it cannot hide the fact that it possesses it.

Temperament is an independent quality embodied in a Soul Master. Its formation is related to the Soul Master's personal character, strength, temperament, and the compatibility of their Martial Soul.

Just like Shi Guang's martial soul is the Illusionary Dream Martial Soul, his aura carries a spiritual aspect, making him more convincing in both speech and gestures.

However, this also has its drawbacks. If a person with high mental strength discovers that he will be changed by time, he may take action to punish time.

Time generally doesn't use this skill. At most, it uses mental energy to conceal its aura, and usually hides its presence in normal times to remain eye-catching.

To his dismay, no matter how hard he tried to hide his aura, it was always evident.

As a spirit-type soul master, he is truly exceptional. His powerful spiritual strength is such that even high-level soul masters take him seriously—this is an undeniable fact.

Although the old man taught him a technique to conceal information with mental power, this method was not very useful to him, because advanced soul masters could see through his mental power. It would only take careful observation to see the clues.

Shi Guang has always been skeptical of these techniques. He doesn't believe they can conceal his identity, but he's satisfied if they can cover most situations.

Shi Guang doesn't like the style of doing things in a high-profile way, because he prefers to develop in a low-key manner and seek victory through steady progress.

The main reason is his talent, which is simply too powerful. If he were to be observed by someone from the Spirit Hall, the Heaven Dou Empire, or the Star Luo Empire, he could very well face a deadly threat. If Shi Guang had a background like Yu Xiaogang's, with a top-tier background, he wouldn't need to fear these things. He could simply have a Title Douluo protect him.

But he is not Yu Xiaogang, he is Shi Guang. He doesn't have those backgrounds, he can only rely on his own fists to make a name for himself.

As Shi Guang pondered, led by the rest of the team, they ventured deep into the forest, observing the spirit beasts and silently searching for one suitable for Ye Lingling.

However, support-type soul beasts are extremely rare, even rarer than defense-type soul beasts, because these soul beasts survive in the forest by sticking together for warmth.

Even the teachers leading the teams relied on purchased maps to find some recorded gathering points of support-type soul masters, and they tried to explore these points to see if they could find any remaining support-type soul beasts.

After all, these real detectives are only interested in making money. They turn a map or drawing into dozens of texts and sell them to others, earning several times the price as payment.

People like Shi Guang find this kind of behavior of demanding exorbitant prices and then asking for a bargain extremely distasteful.

This means that a Soul Master often sells their soul, choosing to degenerate into a puppet of money, and will stop at nothing for money.

Such soul practitioners are usually not far from becoming evil soul masters. They are very likely to go astray in one of their extreme thoughts, become evil soul masters, and completely head down the road to self-destruction.

Shi Guang had heard about the stories of Xie Hunshi after they were transformed. Many of them did not want to become evil marriage masters, but became evil marriage masters by chance. Although Shi Guang felt pity for these pitiful people, if he encountered them, he would definitely kill them without hesitation.

Time may understand them, but it cannot tolerate their sadistic behavior.

After all, their existence is harmful to Douluo Continent and the Soul Master world; they are parasites on the world, and killing one is a gain.

Time cannot be allowed to interfere with one's life, because these newlywed warriors often gather together to carry out large-scale operations, just like Dou Er and Dou San. They will fight in an organized, group-based, strategic, and planned manner.

It can be described as extremely difficult to deal with.
