Douluo Continent: This Soul Master is Too Bizarre and Unpredictable

"Congratulations, Your Highness, on completing the third test."

"Shang" stepped forward to offer his congratulations.

After exchanging pleasantries, Mu Yang asked, "Senior, for the upcoming fourth trial, Bing'er and I need to leave the secret realm and defeat a Title Douluo of level 95 or higher to complete it. Where is the exit of the secret realm?"

The entrance and exit of the Asura Secret Realm are in the hands of 'Shang'. To complete the fourth trial, 'Shang' needs to open a spatial passage to send him and Shui Bing'er back to the outside world.

"When does Your Highness plan to leave the secret realm?"

"Shang" asked with a smile.

Looking up at the sky, Mu Yang said, "Tomorrow, let's rest for the night first."

The day and night cycle in the Asura Secret Realm is synchronized with the outside world. It is already evening, and Mu Yang plans to leave the secret realm with Shui Bing'er tomorrow.

After all, from the beginning to the end of the third test, the Divine Light of Slaughter, he and Shui Bing'er hadn't rested at all, and they had also endured the pain caused by the seeping of killing intent into their bodies. It was necessary for them to get a good night's rest and adjust their condition.

Shang nodded: "Alright, Your Highness, please come here again tomorrow morning. I will open the passage to leave the secret realm then."

"Thank you for your trouble, senior."

Mu Yang cupped his hands in a respectful gesture.

That night, the figure of "Shang" appeared in the Asura Temple outside the secret realm, and then the King of Slaughter received a warning.

—Anyone who attacks the examiner before the fifth test will die!

If the King of Slaughter were Tang Chen who had not been parasitized, 'Shang' would certainly not have issued this warning.

After all, the world is not absolutely fair. We cannot demand that the challenged be at the same level as the later challengers, otherwise that would be the greatest unfairness to the challenged one.

Although the current King of Slaughter is Tang Chen, the previous examiner, Tang Chen has been parasitized by the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King. Strictly speaking, the King of Slaughter is not an examiner.

Moreover, in Shang's eyes, ever since the great God-King issued the divine decree, Tang Chen, the former prince, was no longer the prince of his divine servant.

To ensure that Mu Yang, who is valued by the great God King, does not fall victim to the King of Slaughter before the competitive assessment, this warning becomes a logical step.

Of course, Mu Yang was unaware of this.

To be honest, even though Tang Chen was just the King of Slaughter and not the one whose consciousness had returned, Mu Yang was not afraid at all, given that he had the Spirit Gold Battle Armor and the Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

Tang Chen's foundation as "Invincible on Land" is solid. In fact, after completing the seventh trial of the Asura God Trial, Tang Chen's strength is definitely stronger than when he was first given the title of "Invincible on Land".

It can be said that before being harmed by the Rakshasa God, Tang Chen, who had already completed the seven trials, would have been invincible not only on land but also in the world if he had fought against Qian Daoliu and Poseidon again, excluding the factor of the two deities mobilizing divine power.

After all, having undergone seven divine trials, how could one's strength not have improved?

But Tang Chen is Tang Chen, and the King of Slaughter is the King of Slaughter; the two cannot be confused.

Parasitism is not rebirth. The Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King only occupies Tang Chen's body, but that does not mean that the King of Slaughter can use the Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul.

The reason Tang Chen was able to be called "Invincible on Land" was not only because of his level 99 Peerless Douluo soul power, but also because of his domineering Clear Sky Hammer martial soul and the various unique skills he could use based on it.

With his martial soul unusable and his ultimate techniques unmastered, how much of his "invincible on land" strength could the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King unleash?

Furthermore, given that Tang Chen has been parasitized for many years and his body is severely depleted, whether the King of Slaughter can defeat Tang Hao is still a question worth considering!

Early the next morning, in the inner city of the Killing Capital.

Inside the empty, blood-red hall, a point of white light suddenly shone from in front of the Asura God statue, and then the white light spread, transforming into a white light curtain.

Immediately afterwards, a ripple appeared on the white light screen, and two blue-haired figures emerged from it.

"Muyang, the assessment period is a full year, which is plenty of time. Shouldn't we go back to the academy first?"

Shui Bing'er asked Mu Yang.

Nodding, Mu Yang said, "Just go back to the academy, but not just to take a look."

The goal of this assessment is to defeat a Title Douluo of level 95 or higher. My uncle is a level 95 Title Douluo. Once we get back, we can find him and have a fight to complete the assessment.

As for the fifth trial, barring any unforeseen circumstances, we'll be facing the King of Slaughter. That guy's a bit dangerous; let's be prepared before we return to Slaughter City.

The assessment objective is to defeat a Title Douluo of level 95 or above?

Then there's no need to look for anyone else, just go directly to your uncle Huo Lie!

Huo Lie: My nephew is so filial!

The "ready" that Mu Yang mentioned did not mean that he had any secret weapon, but rather that he was preparing to condense a soul core.

His soul power level has now advanced to the eighth ring, and it's time to condense a soul core.

As for Shui Bing'er, although her level is much lower, only seven rings, her mental strength far exceeds her soul power. Moreover, because she is proficient in secret techniques, her control over soul power is quite good, so condensing her first soul core should not be too difficult.

Whether or not a Soul Master possesses a Soul Core, the difference in their strength is quite significant.

Without going into too much detail, it can at least greatly improve the endurance of the Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

Meanwhile, Tang San, who had only recently entered the City of Slaughter but had already gained some fame, walked along the streets of the inner city, heading towards the Hell Slaughter Arena located in the central area.

"Father said that I can only leave the Killing City after achieving a hundred consecutive wins in the Hell Killing Arena. As of yesterday, I've already achieved five consecutive wins, reaching one-twentieth of the goal. It seems that achieving a hundred consecutive wins isn't so difficult after all!"

While remaining vigilant against attacks from the Fallen Ones passing by, Tang San thought to himself.

Of course, Tang San also knew that the main reason why a Soul King of his level, who had just entered the fifth ring, could run rampant in the City of Slaughter was that the City of Slaughter restricted Soul Masters from using Soul Skills.

Ordinary Soul Masters are restricted from using Soul Skills, which means they lose about 80-90% of their strength.

But he's different. Being restricted from using soul skills isn't a big deal. He still has the secret techniques of the Tang Sect and the inherited skills of the Haotian Sect. In particular, the Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique and the Nine Absolute Techniques of Haotian that he has diligently practiced in the past two years have unleashed power that is stronger than the soul skills of the Blue Silver Emperor.

Moreover, even if he couldn't defeat a few formidable opponents by using his ultimate techniques, he still had powerful Tang Clan hidden weapons in his storage soul tool.

Previously, due to insufficient funds, the most powerful hidden weapon he could come up with was the Zhuge Divine Crossbow.

But since returning to the Haotian Sect, he is no longer the neglected nobody he used to be; he is now the sect leader's uncle's nephew!

He had some precious materials and poisons for crafting advanced hidden weapons. While he couldn't squander them as he pleased, he could certainly concoct one or two extremely powerful hidden weapons.

It can be said that his unique martial arts skills and hidden weapons were Tang San's greatest assets for survival in the City of Slaughter. (End of Chapter)
