Douluo Continent: The Martial Soul is actually Bibi Dong.

Chapter 180 Soul... Soul Saint!! Everyone was stunned.

"Dai Mubai!"

Upon hearing Dai Mubai's words, Zhu Zhuqing clenched her fists slightly.

She knew that with her own strength, she was probably no match for Dai Mubai, but now that they were both Soul Kings, she wasn't afraid of anything.

"You traitor, today I'll make you pay for betraying the Star Luo Empire!"

Dai Mubai continued to look at Zhu Zhuqing coldly.

Just yesterday, he received news from the Star Luo Empire that his elder brother, Davis, had been named Crown Prince.

Therefore, Dai Mubai knew very well that he would have to go back after this competition ended, as the Star Luo Empire would not allow him to continue to roam freely outside.

If you lose in a competition, you must accept the consequences of that failure.

However, he was not having an easy time. Zhu Zhuqing, who had chosen to betray him, did not have to accept the punishment for failure. How could Dai Mubai bear this?

Why are you unharmed?

Therefore, Dai Mubai plans to take action himself and make Zhu Zhuqing pay the price for her betrayal.

"Betrayal? Back then, you fled to the Heavenly Dou Empire alone, leaving me alone in Star Luo. Wasn't that a betrayal of me?"

"If you want war, then let's fight! Stop with all this nonsense!"

Zhu Zhuqing remained unmoved by Dai Mubai's words, instead giving a cold snort of disgust in response.

"you……"

Upon hearing Zhu Zhuqing's words, Dai Mubai was immediately enraged.

boom--

Enraged, Dai Mubai immediately released his martial spirit, and the powerful soul pressure shook the surroundings.

"snort!"

Zhu Zhuqing snorted coldly and released her martial soul, completely unafraid of Dai Mubai's soul pressure.

"Cough cough—"

"Wait a minute, it seems like it's not Dai Mubai's turn to go on stage yet!"

"Now that Ma Hongjun has conceded defeat, it's time for the Tiandou Royal Team to send someone onto the stage!"

Just as the two were about to start fighting, the host stepped in and interrupted them.

Dai Mubai: "..."

Dai Mubai was immediately dumbfounded, and then his expression became quite interesting.

He had just sent Ma Hongjun down because he was thinking of taking Ma Hongjun's place in the fight against Zhu Zhuqing, so he hadn't thought too much about it.

It's only now that I realize he seems to have gotten the order wrong.

sigh~

At this moment, Su Mo's figure flashed onto the arena.

"Dai Mubai, it seems like it's not your turn to go on stage yet!"

After Su Mo came on stage, she smiled and spoke to Dai Mubai.

"Please, Mr. Dai Mubai, step down first. There's no need to rush. You'll definitely have your chance to make a move later!"

The host then continued speaking to Dai Mubai, gesturing for him to step down.

Dai Mubai was caught in an awkward situation, unsure whether to retreat or not.

He didn't want to go down because he knew Zhu Zhuqing was no match for Su Mo.

If he goes down there, he won't have the chance to fight Zhu Zhuqing.

"Dai Mubai, come down quickly!"

When Yu Xiaogang saw this situation from below, he frowned and then called out to Dai Mubai on the arena with a slightly serious expression.

He knew what Dai Mubai was thinking, but ignoring the rules of the Soul Master Competition would be too shameful.

"hateful!"

Dai Mubai glanced at Zhu Zhuqing reluctantly, but finally turned and left.

It would be too shameful to stay in the ring any longer.

"Alright, now please, both contestants, unleash your martial spirits!"

"The losers will enter the losers' bracket, while the winners will have a chance to directly qualify for the finals!"

Upon seeing Dai Mubai leave, the host from the Spirit Hall immediately took over the competition and addressed Su Mo and Zhu Zhuqing.

After saying that, the host slowly walked off the stage.

Soon, only Su Mo and Zhu Zhuqing remained on the arena.

"Su Mo, I've never had a chance to say thank you!"

"If it weren't for you, I would definitely be like Dai Mubai, going back to face the punishment for failing in the competition soon!"

"You're the one who showed me how to escape my family's fate!"

"Thank you, Su Mo!"

Facing Su Mo, Zhu Zhuqing did not immediately summon her martial soul. Instead, she sincerely thanked Su Mo.

Upon hearing this, Su Mo glanced at Zhu Zhuqing in surprise, not expecting that Zhu Zhuqing would actually take the initiative to thank him.

You should know that when Su Mo first met Zhu Zhuqing, his impression of her was not very good.

Of course, Zhu Zhuqing's first impression of him wasn't very good either.

"This is a choice you made yourself!"

"I was just mentioning it casually!"

Su Mo smiled in response.

He had ulterior motives back then; he wanted to see if he could trick Zhu Zhuqing away and continue to dismantle the Shrek team.

However, as for the outcome, Su Mo wasn't embarrassed at all.

Joining the Spirit Hall was originally a good choice for Zhu Zhuqing.

"No matter what, I want to thank you!"

"I know I'm no match for you, but I still hope to have a serious match with you!"

"Zhu Zhuqing, Level 51 Soul King, please give me your guidance!"

hum-

After Zhu Zhuqing finished speaking, she summoned her martial spirit and then the martial spirit possessed her body.

Zhu Zhuqing's body underwent a slight change, and her already voluptuous figure became even more alluring and graceful.

Su Mo couldn't help but take a second look.

The Zhu Zhuqing before me is clearly much more mature than she was five years ago.

"Come on, let me see how much you've improved over the past few years!"

Then, Su Mo simply waved the Soul Hunter Spear in his hand, the tip of the spear pointing directly at Zhu Zhuqing.

That's right. Even when facing Zhu Zhuqing, who possessed the Soul King level, Su Mo did not immediately release his Soul Rings.

Zhu Zhuqing wasn't angry when she saw Su Mo's expression, because she knew that Su Mo dared to do this because he was confident in his own strength.

Su Mo had already proven this point by easily defeating a Soul Master in previous matches without using Soul Rings.

Although she wasn't angry, Zhu Zhuqing was definitely resentful.

Therefore, she wanted to force Su Mo to use his spirit ring.

"Fourth Soul Skill: Netherworld Shadow Clone!"

shhhhh--

Zhu Zhuqing immediately unleashed her fourth soul skill, creating several shadow clones that attacked Su Mo from various directions in coordination with her.

"Second Soul Skill: Netherworld Hundred Claws!"

"Third Soul Skill - Netherworld Slash!"

Zhu Zhuqing's shadow clones served as a restraint, while Zhu Zhuqing herself unleashed her soul skills one after another, striking Su Mo with swift and fierce attacks.

ding ding ding-

Faced with Zhu Zhuqing's attacks, Su Mo simply swung his Soul-Hunting Spear, continuously blocking Zhu Zhuqing's attacks.

However, Zhu Zhuqing is a Soul King after all, possessing considerable strength, especially her speed, which is extremely fast.

With the addition of her Netherworld Shadow Clone, Su Mo realized that if he continued not to use his soul power, he would be underestimating Zhu Zhuqing.

"Great! It seems you've made a lot of progress over the years!"

"You wanted to force me to use my spirit rings and spirit skills, didn't you? Well, you succeeded!"

After defeating Zhu Zhuqing again, Su Mo suddenly stopped and looked at Zhu Zhuqing, praising her.

After hearing Su Mo say this, Zhu Zhuqing did not continue her attack, but waited for Su Mo to release his soul ring.

She was very happy to receive Su Mo's praise.

However, what Zhu Zhuqing wanted to know even more now was what Su Mo's soul power level was, which he had kept hidden all this time.

"Is Su Mo about to release his spirit ring?"

"Good heavens, we can finally find out his soul power level..."

"Do you mean Soul Emperor or Soul Saint?"

"He's a Soul Emperor, not a Soul Saint. He's only 19 years old..."

"That's not necessarily true. Didn't you see that it took a Soul King to force him to use his Soul Ring? A Soul Emperor wouldn't be that powerful..."

"That seems to be true..."

"Impossible, absolutely impossible..."

"..."

Seeing that Su Mo was about to release his spirit ring, the audience members were all invigorated and stared intently at Su Mo's figure, waiting for him to release his spirit ring.

"They're either Soul Kings or Soul Emperors, what's so great about that..."

"They've been hiding it all this time, I don't know what they're so proud of..."

In the Shrek team, Oscar looked at the highly anticipated Su Mo and said with a sour and disdainful tone.

"That's right, at most, it's the Soul Emperor!"

Ma Hongjun also expressed his strong approval of this.

"Your judgment is probably correct; Su Mo is at most a Soul Emperor!"

Upon hearing Oscar and Ma Hongjun's words, Yu Xiaogang smiled confidently.

Although Su Mo's combat power was a bit too strong, Su Mo's combat power had always been stronger than his soul power level, so Yu Xiaogang didn't think much of it.

The main reason was that he simply couldn't believe Su Mo had broken through to the Soul Emperor level.

Tang San was also coldly watching Su Mo's figure.

Hearing Yu Xiaogang's words, Tang San did not refute them, because he thought so too.

Su Mo went to the Star Dou Great Forest after leaving the City of Slaughter. Xiao Wu was forced to sacrifice herself to become Su Mo's sixth spirit ring.

Therefore, Tang San knew very well that Su Mo broke through to the Soul Emperor realm at that time.

After that, in just over a year, he absolutely did not believe that Su Mo could break through to the Soul Saint level.

The clearer Tang San understood these things, the angrier he became, and his Killing God Domain almost went berserk again.

hum-

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Su Mo released his spirit rings in front of outsiders for the first time.

Yellow, purple, black, red!

When Su Mo's seven soul rings were fully revealed, a powerful soul pressure shook the entire scene, and everyone took a step back in shock.

"Red...red spirit rings..."

"They are 100,000-year spirit rings, and two of them at that..."

"My God, Su Mo is actually a Soul Saint, and a Soul Saint with two 100,000-year Soul Rings at that..."

"How is this possible..."

"..."

When they saw the spirit rings that Su Mo displayed, everyone present was stunned and stared at Su Mo on the arena in disbelief.

Many people even rubbed their eyes repeatedly, doubting that what they were seeing was real.

But no matter how many times they rubbed their eyes, when they looked closely, what appeared before them was Su Mo, who already possessed two 100,000-year soul rings and was a Soul Saint.

"How is that possible..."

"Isn't this a bit too much??"

"..."

Everyone on the Shrek Academy team, including Tang San, stared at Su Mo in disbelief.

Tang San, in particular, never expected that Su Mo would improve so quickly.

Tang San then fixed his gaze on Su Mo's sixth spirit ring. He knew that it was the spirit ring that had been created after Xiao Wu's sacrifice.

Seeing this, Tang San's Killing God Domain almost went berserk again.

"You...you actually broke through to the Soul Saint realm?"

"And you even have two 100,000-year soul rings! How did you manage that?"

The person who felt it most directly was undoubtedly Zhu Zhuqing, who was sitting opposite Su Mo.

She could more directly feel the shock caused to her by the soul pressure generated by the two 100,000-year soul rings on Su Mo's body. Under the shock of the soul pressure of the two 100,000-year soul rings, she felt that it was difficult to even stand in front of Su Mo.

Just after Su Mo revealed his spirit rings, she was directly knocked back several steps and almost lost her footing.

"Just lucky!"

Su Mo smiled, as if everything was very simple.

"..."

Upon hearing Su Mo's answer, Zhu Zhuqing was at a loss for words.

If it's just good luck that you can improve this quickly, then she wants that too!

However, it seems that not everyone has luck.

She was very unlucky; she was born into the Zhu family of the Star Luo Empire, a family that had no human touch whatsoever.

"Shall we continue?"

Su Mo casually brandished the Soul Hunter Spear in his hand, then asked Zhu Zhuqing in a calm tone.

"..."

Upon hearing Su Mo's words, Zhu Zhuqing fell silent again.

To be honest, after seeing Su Mo's soul power level and soul ring configuration, she really lost all confidence.

Even though she knew she was no match for Su Mo, she thought she could still spar with him. But now, Zhu Zhuqing realized that Su Mo hadn't been serious at all; otherwise, she wouldn't have had many chances to fight back.

To continue the competition knowing that Su Mo is so strong is undoubtedly a very brainless act.

It's better to admit defeat, conserve your strength, and save it for the loser's bracket team battle.

"continue!"

But soon, Zhu Zhuqing raised her head and looked at Su Mo with her beautiful eyes, speaking earnestly.

"First Soul Skill: Netherworld Thrust!"

"Fifth Soul Skill: Netherworld Shadow Link!"

After saying that, Zhu Zhuqing attacked Su Mo again.

It's easy to admit defeat, but Zhu Zhuqing absolutely refuses to allow herself to lack even the courage to fight.

So she chose to continue the competition; she would rather be defeated than admit defeat.

"very good!"

Su Mo was very impressed with Zhu Zhuqing's choice.

Often, when you know you're outmatched, admitting defeat is the best option.

But here, losing a match won't kill you. If you don't even have the courage to challenge a strong opponent here, then you're just too pathetic.

"Seventh Soul Skill - True Form of the Soul Hunter Spear!"

hum-

Seeing Zhu Zhuqing's courage, Su Mo unleashed his seventh soul skill, preparing to use his martial soul true form to defeat Zhu Zhuqing.
