Douluo: Martial Soul Asura Sword, Supreme Killing God

His eyes were full of approval as he looked at Su Mo.

For Su Mo to achieve this level in his first real-world sparring match far exceeded his expectations.

"Your Highness, you flatter me." Zhou Lie withdrew his martial spirit and bowed to Su Mo with clasped hands.

Su Mo nodded without saying anything more; he had already reached his limit.

Both of his soul skills are amplification skills; he has no offensive means and can only rely on amplification to survive.

Perhaps only when his swordsmanship becomes more refined will he be able to truly fight an opponent like Zhou Lie.

"Junior brother!"

Just then, Bibi Dong's figure came running from not far away.

Her battle was long over.

Facing a control-type Soul Master, even though her first Soul Skill doubled her speed, the difference in Soul Power was too great. Coupled with her lack of combat experience, she couldn't even get close to her opponent before her Soul Power was completely exhausted.

She rested on the sidelines for a long time, watching Su Mo play.

Seeing that he had finally finished fighting, she rushed over and grabbed his arm.

"Are you alright?" Bibi Dong asked with a worried expression.

Su Mo withdrew his martial spirit and forced a smile at her: "It's nothing, I just used up too much energy."

"Then let's go back and rest!"

"it is good."

Bibi Dong helped him, and they slowly walked back step by step.

……

When he returned to his bedchamber, the maids had already prepared a medicinal bath.

The medicinal bath prepared by Qian Xunji used precious medicinal herbs, and the steam was filled with a rich medicinal fragrance that was invigorating just by smelling it.

Su Mo was soaking in the bathtub, the warm water enveloping his extremely tired body, and the aches and pains all over his body gradually subsided under the influence of the medicine.

With his eyes closed, he was replaying every detail of today's battle in his mind over and over again.

Zhou Lie's first soul skill is characterized by elusive movement, making him suitable for surprise attacks and kiting.

Second Soul Skill: Ranged Area Attack.

The third soul skill, Heavy Blade Enhancement, is an amplification-type soul skill that can instantly increase strength and the weight of the blade.

As for himself... both of his soul skills were amplification skills, but he had no means of attack. His swordsmanship was also too rusty. He had just learned the basic sword techniques in the morning, but by the afternoon he had no time to turn them into his body's instincts. He could only use them rigidly.

But Su Mo was not discouraged at all, because he knew very well that these were things that could be practiced.

Swordsmanship can be mastered, experience can be accumulated, and reaction time can be improved.

If we can't handle it today, then we'll do it tomorrow.

If we can't win tomorrow, we'll try the day after.

One day, he will win.

After the medicinal bath, he changed into clean clothes, sat cross-legged on the bed, and entered into meditation.

Su Mo discovered that after a day of intense training, coupled with the nourishment of the medicinal bath, the flow of soul power within his body became smoother.

Perhaps it won't be long before he breaks through to level 26.

……

Time flies, and a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

Su Mo's life was extremely regular throughout the year.

Every day at the crack of dawn, he would get up and head to the mountaintop to practice swordsmanship under the guidance of Qian Daoliu.

Spring comes and autumn goes, cold comes and heat goes, a whole year goes by, rain or shine.

Su Mo's swordsmanship gradually improved from unfamiliar to proficient, barely meeting Qian Daoliu's requirements. After all, Su Mo was still young, and Qian Daoliu didn't have too high expectations.

Chapter 14 A Year of Growth, Immortal Herb Catalogue

After returning from sword practice, Su Mo went to the study behind the Papal Palace to study theoretical knowledge with Bibi Dong.

Qian Xunji was busy with teaching affairs and rarely supervised personally; he simply arranged the learning content for each day.

Su Mo was happy to be free and focused on reading classic texts every day. With his photographic memory, he accumulated more and more knowledge in his mind.

Bibi Dong no longer loves to sleep as much as before. With Su Mo's encouragement and companionship, she has made remarkable progress over the past year.

Every day when she reads, she sits next to Su Mo, reading quietly, and tilts her head to ask him questions when she doesn't understand something.

In the afternoon, you can always see two small figures sweating profusely, doing physical training.

Traditional physical training in Douluo Continent uses very primitive and ordinary methods. Although the Spirit Hall's method is better than Yu Xiaogang's method of running while carrying stones, it is not much better.

Therefore, Su Mo combined his memories from his previous life and improved many training equipment and methods.

In addition, they would occasionally consume whale glue of even higher age, which continuously improved their physical fitness, far surpassing that of Soul Masters of the same level.

When it came to actual combat training, they went from initial failures to now being able to fight on equal footing with experienced Soul Masters, and their progress was clearly visible.

It is worth mentioning that half a year ago, Su Mo defeated Zhou Lie, who was going all out, for the first time, thanks to his increasingly skillful swordsmanship.

At that time, his soul power had reached level 28, while Zhou Lie was still at level 42.

Although Su Mo's soul power was almost exhausted when the battle ended, the sword in his hand was already pointing straight at Zhou Lie's chest, with the tip of the sword stopping three inches in front of his clothes.

He won.

At that moment, Zhou Lie stood frozen in place, looking down at the tip of the sword resting in front of his chest, his eyes filled with shock and admiration.

Afterwards, Qian Xunji arranged for even stronger opponents, which Su Mo gradually defeated one by one.

In addition, over the course of a year, Su Mo's soul power broke through from the peak of level 25 to level 30. He only needs one more soul ring to become a true Soul Master.

At the age of seven, he has already broken all the records in the history of Douluo Continent. Even the six-winged angel martial soul of the Qian family, which has an innate soul power of more than level ten, has not been able to break through to the Soul Master level at the age of seven.

Bibi Dong had seen all of Su Mo's progress and was anxious about it.

She is Su Mo's senior sister. Although they are the same age, she was taken in as a disciple by Qian Xunji first, so she is naturally the senior sister.

Even though Su Mo's innate soul power was ten levels higher than hers, giving her a significant head start, she was still a twin martial soul genius with full innate soul power. How could she be left too far behind?

So, with this indomitable spirit, she worked exceptionally hard and diligently in her cultivation, unafraid of hardship or fatigue.

In just one year, thanks to the resources of the Spirit Hall, her soul power made amazing progress, rising from level twelve to level seventeen.

This speed was already astonishing, but Bibi Dong was still not satisfied.

She was determined to catch up with Su Mo, or at least not let him leave her too far behind.

And so, Qian Xunji's year-long systematic study officially came to an end.

Next, they can study and cultivate freely. If they have any questions or needs, they can go to Qian Xunji at any time.

……

In the afternoon, the sun was blazing.

In the center of Wuhun City, Su Mo stood alone at the entrance of a luxurious manor.

Before long, a figure hurriedly arrived at the door after being announced by a servant.

The newcomer was a man with an effeminate appearance and a gait resembling that of a woman. He was none other than Yue Guan, the Chrysanthemum Douluo, the future elder of the Spirit Hall and Bibi Dong's right-hand man.

Of course, he is currently only a Soul Douluo and has not yet reached the level of a Title Douluo.

When Yue Guan saw the golden token in Su Mo's hand, a look of shock flashed in his eyes.

How could a six or seven-year-old child be holding a papal decree?

It should be understood that a papal decree is as if the Pope himself were present; seeing the decree is like seeing the Pope in person.

Who is this child? Could he be the Pope's illegitimate son? But he doesn't look like him...

Su Mo's true identity is currently only known to the higher-ups of the Spirit Hall.

Qian Xunji planned to wait a while longer, until Su Mo and Bibi Dong's strength had improved further, before officially announcing their identities and establishing them as the Holy Son and Holy Daughter.

However, before that, Qian Xunji gave him and Bibi Dong each a papal decree to facilitate their actions and avoid some unnecessary trouble.

Yue Guan dared not delay, quickened his pace, and hurriedly came to Su Mo's side, bowing respectfully: "Yue Guan greets Your Excellency, please come in quickly."

Su Mo nodded, put the Pope's Decree back into his soul tool, and followed Yue Guan to the hall.

Given Yue Guan's respectful attitude, he did not refuse and naturally sat in the main seat.

"I wonder what business you have with me today, sir?" Yue Guan asked curiously, standing to the side.

He secretly wondered if the papacy's personal visit with the papal decree meant something important.

Su Mo said calmly, "Bishop Yueguan, it's not a big deal. I'm someone who enjoys reading and learning, and recently I've been wanting to study some rare and exotic herbs."

I've heard that Bishop Yueguan has a fondness for flowers and plants. I'd like to ask if you have any catalogs of rare and exotic plants here, which I'd like to borrow for a while.

His purpose in coming here was precisely that catalog of flowers and herbs that contained the miraculous herb.

Throughout the entire Douluo Continent, besides the future Tang San, only Yue Guan and the Po clan know about the immortal herb.

Su Mo needs to find a time to acquire the immortal herb. That place should still be unclaimed land. As one of the greatest opportunities in Douluo Continent, it is natural to take it into one's possession as soon as possible.

He didn't recognize the immortal herb, so he could only turn to Yue Guan.

Upon hearing this, Yue Guan immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

He thought something big had happened, that someone had come to him with a papal decree, only to find out they just wanted to read a book.

When the topic turned to flowers and plants, Yue Guan immediately became interested, his eyes lighting up: "My lord, you've come to the right person!"

He took out a thick book from his soul tool, which was the record of rare and precious herbs passed down from Yue Guan's ancestors. It contained illustrations and descriptions of countless rare flowers and plants.

"My lord, here you go." Yue Guan respectfully handed the catalog of flowers and plants to Su Mo with both hands.

Su Mo took it, casually flipped through a couple of pages, and nodded: "Thanks."

He didn't say much, but he remembered this kindness.
