In Douluo Continent, the Pope used me as a substitute for my first love.

Chapter 219 The Mutated Dragon-Patterned Rose Martial Soul

However, geniuses are hard to find, especially since Wang Zhao specifically wanted to find a Soul Master who could be associated with "dragons".

Oh, and she's female.

This is like finding a needle in a haystack.

Even with the "Dragon Transformation Pool" and top-grade martial soul transformation pills at her disposal, if Wang Zhao wants to create a super genius who can overpower the original Shrek Seven Devils, she would still need to be at least a minor genius herself.

Putting Tian Yue aside, take Meng Yiran and Dugu Yan for example. Don't be fooled by the fact that they were just little karami who were easily defeated by Tang San in the original story. In fact, once they grow up, wouldn't each of them become a powerful figure who can command respect in their own region?

Of course, Wang Zhao had considered not being so obsessive-compulsive and instead trying to select male Soul Masters for the last two teams, such as Huo Wushuang from the Blazing Fire Academy who appeared in the original work. He is Huo Wushuang's brother and his Martial Soul is the Unicorn Firestorm Dragon.

He's a good fit.

However, Wang Zhaonian recently learned that Huo Wushuang had awakened his martial soul several years ago and was already famous, hailed as "the future pillar of Blazing Fire Academy".

Unless he is openly invited to join the Hidden Dragon Academy, it would be abrupt and suspicious if someone like Tian Yue could easily change their name and quietly become a member of the "Seven Dragon Girls" team because of the transformation of their martial soul.

Ultimately, Wang Zhao found it troublesome, or perhaps for other reasons, he gave up on Huo Wushuang's choice, and also abandoned the idea of ​​having male soul masters join the "Seven Dragon Girls" team.

Anyway, the mainland is so big, surely we can find some talented "little female Tyrannosaurus Rexes"? We've already gathered five, so we can just find the other two slowly.

Wang Zhao thought to himself.

At this moment, Jiuxin slowly stood up and brought Jiuqingyi to Wang Zhao.

"Qingyi, show your martial spirit to the Palace Master."

He gently patted his granddaughter's back and said somewhat seriously.

Jiu Qingyi looked at Wang Zhao hesitantly, but met his gentle and encouraging gaze, which made her feel at ease. Then she confidently raised her hand slightly.

"A sparse shadow and a subtle fragrance, a delicate face flushed with blood."

As she softly chanted the soul incantation, several vibrant roses quickly grew on her hand, connected to a vine. The rose petals were exceptionally translucent, with faint, deep red, strange lines distributed on them. Upon closer inspection, one could even discern a somewhat spirited dragon shape.

Then there is no more then.

"I haven't taken her to hunt for her first spirit ring yet."

At this moment, Jiuxin coughed lightly, offering a reminder.

"fine."

Wang Zhao simply shook his head.

"That's a good thing, I can give her something better."

Upon hearing this, Jiu Xin couldn't help but nod, feeling instantly relieved and gaining even more approval for Wang Zhao.

Wang Zhao glanced at the dragon-patterned rose spirit in Jiu Qingyi's hand for a few moments, then looked at her with a friendly expression and asked, "Plant-attribute spirit... what type of spirit master do you plan to develop in?"

Jiu Qingyi glanced at her grandfather, and seeing him nod steadily at her, she spoke up in a clear voice, "Big brother, I plan to become a control-type and food-type Soul Master in the future!"

The little girl's words were surprising, and Wang Zhao was taken aback. Then he looked at her quite seriously.

"Why would you think that? You know, plant-attribute martial souls are two extremes: control-type and food-type."

Upon hearing this, Jiu Qingyi showed no change in expression, but continued, "Because my martial soul is very special. My grandfather said it's a benign mutated martial soul that our family has only seen once in a thousand years."

"Oh……"

Wang Zhao then nodded slightly and looked at Jiu Xin.

"Could you tell me what happened?"

"certainly."

Then Jiu Xin said with a hint of pride, "Our family's inherited martial soul, the Dragon Pattern Rose, is a martial soul with excellent resilience and toxicity, and most importantly, it has extraordinary binding ability."

"Palace Master, please look at Qingyi's martial soul. Those blood-red, almost black lines on the rose petals are dragon patterns. Dragon patterns can give the rose an extremely domineering power boost. When the rose entangles and binds the enemy, it will be like a giant dragon grasping its claws. The binding power is absolutely rare among plant-attribute martial souls that can rival it."

Wang Zhao nodded in agreement.

"Indeed, very excellent."

"How come this martial soul, which is clearly suited for a control-type martial soul, has mutated into one that Qingyi believes can be cultivated in both control and food-type martial souls?"

"Here's the situation."

Jiuxin lowered her fingers slightly, meeting the dense cluster of tiny thorns on the dragon-patterned rose branch.

"The poisonous methods of the Dragon Pattern Rose Martial Soul are mainly exerted through the thorns on the branches and the faint fragrance emitted by the flowers. It usually appears as a light blackish-purple color. However, as you have seen, Palace Master, the color of Qingyi's Martial Soul thorns is obviously non-toxic, and the fragrance emitted is the same."

"This is because Qingyi's martial soul mutation caused her Dragon Pattern Rose to completely lose its toxicity. Instead, the number of dragon patterns on each of her petals is the highest in our family's history, which also means that the binding power of her Dragon Pattern Rose martial soul will be extremely domineering."

"In addition, due to the complete disappearance of the toxicity, the original poisonous fragrance emitted by her dragon-patterned roses was also affected, and its effects were completely transformed into benign ones."

"I have personally experienced that the fragrance of her dragon-patterned roses can invigorate a Soul Master, clear away negative status effects, and even enhance attack power. It has the potential for further development, and the method of consumption is naturally 'absorbing Qi'."

Upon hearing this, Wang Zhao raised an eyebrow, clearly intrigued.

Jiuxin then added cautiously, "Of course, Qingyi must be able to control such a method herself, otherwise it would be aiding the enemy on the battlefield."

"However, this has nothing to do with her talent. It's just that the dragon-patterned rose that she condenses and emits a benign fragrance will become fragile and easy to pick on its own. If she doesn't actively condense it, it will be a dragon-patterned rose with a domineering binding force."

Therefore, I support her pursuing both control and food-related paths in the future.

"When she wants to utilize the control-type characteristics of her Dragon Pattern Rose, she only needs to use her soul power normally to make the Dragon Pattern Rose grow and extend; when she wants to utilize the food-type characteristics, she can focus her soul power on the fragrance of the flower, then pick a single Dragon Pattern Rose and hand it to her teammates to consume its energy."

So that's how it is, this is the kind of martial spirit, and this is the kind of soul master...

Wang Zhao suddenly felt that his eyes had been opened, and then looked at Jiu Xin with a hint of admiration. This was a meticulous person, and also the head of a clan.

Very good, Wang Zhao wanted to bring him over to the Dragon King's Palace to work for him even more.

"Yes, you've thought this through very well."

Wang Zhao said on the surface.
