The Evil Soul Master is actually myself

Su Ming's eyes narrowed, filled with surprise and uncertainty. Was this Tang Wutong?

After several months of seclusion, it seems a lot has happened during that time. Tang Wutong still disguised herself as a boy and infiltrated Shrek Academy, and as if by fate, she got together with the chosen one.

"Give me one!" Su Ming approached and called out with a smile.

Upon hearing the familiar voice, Huo Yuhao looked up in surprise and saw the handsome young man. The next moment, his eyes turned fervent.

"Amin, you're here? I haven't seen you in the academy for so long. If I hadn't asked the teacher and found out you were studying in the inner courtyard, I would have thought you dropped out!"

Huo Yuhao smiled, a simple and natural smile filled with the joy of reunion.

Su Ming crossed his arms and gestured towards Tang Wutong beside him with his chin, saying, "You've made a new friend, aren't you going to introduce them?"

"This is Tang Dong, my roommate. To be honest, we became friends after a fight. We had a disagreement over some trivial matters, but his personality is actually not bad."

Huo Yuhao pulled up the handsome young man beside him and introduced him, a smile on his face.

Su Ming's expression was strange. Could it be that after the wisp of divine consciousness residing in the Emperor Beast was forced out, the complete version of Tang Wutong appeared like this? And... Brothers, are you sure you didn't notice anything wrong as you held hands so naturally?

He couldn't help but marvel at the corrective power of the timeline (Tang San). The two of them finally came together. He wondered if they would still have a spirit fusion skill after Yi Lao was gone.

"This is Su Ming, a very important benefactor of mine who has helped me a lot," Huo Yuhao explained to Tang Dong.

For some reason, Tang Wutong felt a surge of displeasure upon seeing the exquisitely handsome young man before her, especially after hearing Huo Yuhao explain that he was her best friend. She immediately became jealous, her eyes sharpening as she stared at Su Ming, and coldly snorted:

"Hmph, I've heard that you're one of the twin stars in the outer courtyard, along with Gu Yuena. Let's have a spar sometime."

Su Ming raised an eyebrow and looked at her with interest, saying, "Sure, I just finished three months of arduous training and I'd like to stretch my muscles too."

He sensed Tang Wutong's aura briefly and found that she was actually quite strong, reaching the level of a three-ring Soul Master. She was much stronger than Wang Dong in the original timeline, probably because the two origins had perfectly merged, fully demonstrating the talent of the Son of God.

Speaking of which, Wang Dong from the original timeline was truly a disgrace to the twin martial souls. He was only level 21 at the age of eleven when his soul power was at its maximum, which was even worse than Tang San from ten thousand years ago.

"Hey~, Tang Dong, why are you talking like that?" Huo Yuhao noticed the tension between the two and quickly tried to smooth things over, saying, "Ah Ming, don't let his arrogant temper fool you, he's actually a pretty good person."

"Let's fight now, how about we go to the training ground?" Tang Wutong ignored Huo Yuhao and relentlessly targeted Su Ming, which seemed abrupt and lacked emotional intelligence.

Huo Yuhao looked at Tang Dong with a helpless yet doting gaze, and shrugged at Su Ming. He didn't understand why the two strangers were like a lit powder keg, ready to explode at the slightest touch.

"Alright, Huo Yuhao, you don't need to come along. It'll just affect your business. Anyway, it'll be over soon." Su Ming said casually. He probably knew the reason. He guessed that it was because he had cut off the most crucial opportunity in Tang Wutong's life, and the two of them didn't get along well as soon as they met due to the influence of their auras.

Upon hearing this, Tang Wutong's face turned angry. If it weren't for the fact that fighting spirits wasn't allowed in Shrek City, she would have wanted to activate her spirit and fight Su Ming on the spot.

Huo Yuhao could only smile wryly. He had personally witnessed Su Ming's true face, his domineering and unparalleled aura, and his wild and unrestrained demeanor were something that Tang Dong could not withstand at present. Moreover, after studying in the legendary inner academy for three months, he must have made great progress without a doubt.

He pondered for a moment, then hesitated before saying, "You guys... should be mindful, after all, you're classmates."

"Hmph, don't worry, since he's your friend, I'll go easy on him. At most, I'll teach him a lesson. Don't be so arrogant." Tang Wutong felt good about herself.

Su Ming chuckled and shook his head. The two of them quickly headed to the training ground, one after the other.

Stepping onto the training ground, Tang Wutong didn't waste any words and immediately activated her martial soul to attack Su Ming.

Behind her, pairs of blue butterfly wings instantly unfurled. The colors at the tips of the forewings changed continuously from dark blue to azure to light blue, and the entire wing surface resembled a string of bright halos inlaid in the blue sky, forming a V shape. The patterns on the wings were delicate and exquisite, like white waves surging on a blue sea. The colors and patterns were spectacular, appearing as a purplish-blue.

As Tang Wutong's martial soul expanded, circles of pale golden ripples spread out, and a refreshing aura of light emanated from her body. Combined with her shimmering butterfly wings, she exuded a noble and elegant charm.

The Goddess of Light Butterfly truly lives up to its reputation as the most beautiful martial soul; its special effects alone leave others far behind.

Tang Wutong moved nimbly, her butterfly wings fluttering behind her, scattering beautiful golden light as she drew a graceful arc in mid-air. Three soul rings appeared on her body, one yellow and two purple, with the first soul ring shining brightly as she activated her soul skill, Butterfly God Side Slash.

Behind them, three pairs of beautiful butterfly wings radiated golden light, forming layers of light waves that extended to both sides, creating a three-inch-wide golden rim around the edge of the wings. This rim was extremely sharp and eventually merged into two enormous, exaggerated blue-gold guillotines.

Tang Wutong moved swiftly, arriving in front of Su Ming almost instantly. Her butterfly-winged side blade stirred up a powerful airflow as she slashed fiercely at Su Ming.

Her two side swords spread out like the wings of a roc, emitting a clanging sound of steel. Her figure, under skillful control, perfectly aligned with the sun in the sky. The dazzling sunlight shone on the intricate blue and gold patterns on the wings, which shimmered with a cold light, emitting a dazzling brilliance, intending to disrupt the opponent's defensive vision.

Tang Wutong's attack was brilliant, fast, accurate, and ruthless, and she even made use of the characteristics of her martial soul, showing that she had rich combat experience.

"Well done." Su Ming's eyes showed approval as he shouted loudly. His body tensed up suddenly, his martial spirit silently possessed him, and he threw a punch, clashing head-on with the huge and sharp blue-gold side blade.

In contrast, Su Ming in his [disguised] state appeared ordinary, with all his special effects subdued, but his power was by no means weak. More than 20,000 jin of divine strength was twisted into one, and his boundless blood and qi surged. When he threw his fist, the air exploded, causing a huge uproar. Layer upon layer of ripples spread in all directions, and the ground beneath his feet suddenly collapsed.

clang!

A resounding clang of steel clashing echoed through the sky. Su Ming's fist was covered with a layer of purplish-blue light, sparkling like metal, seemingly indestructible, and it drew a series of sparks from the edge of the blue-gold side blade.

Dangdang Dangdang!

In an instant, Su Ming unleashed more than a dozen punches at incredible speed, his entire arm casting a blurry shadow, making it appear as if he hadn't moved at all.

Click!

The seemingly tough and sharp Blue Gold Butterfly Divine Blade was as fragile as glass and shattered instantly. Tang Wutong was sent flying by the immense divine power, and the strong shock damaged her internal organs, causing her to spit out a mouthful of blood.

As a top-tier beast spirit, the Goddess of Light Butterfly is actually better at energy output and has considerable physical strength, but it is far inferior to Su Ming. This is even with Tang Wutong having twin spirits, and the other spirit being the Clear Sky Hammer. This shows that Su Ming's physical prowess is unparalleled.

"Who gave you the courage to use the Goddess of Light Butterfly to fight me in close combat?" Su Ming said calmly.

Chapter Sixty-Seven: Strike

Tang Wutong fell into a daze in mid-air. Under that immense force, there was also a strong mental shock and a trace of strange energy. The triple blow almost made her lose her fighting ability.

Fortunately, an intricate pattern appeared on her smooth forehead, a golden trident shining with a thin layer of blue-gold light, calming her turbulent mind and forcibly expelling the strange, clinging energy that had been relentlessly entangled within her body.

Tang Wutong gradually recovered and stabilized thanks to her strong physique.

Su Ming was surprised to see this. He knew that his punch just now was no ordinary punch. It was a fusion of his martial arts achievements over the past period, combining the power of "Dominating the World" + "Strange Ripple" + "Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound". Even though he did not use his soul skill, the power was still formidable. If that punch had hit Dai Huabin, he would have died on the spot!

Ultimately, Tang Wutong's talent is indeed strong. Both of her twin martial souls are among the top-tier martial souls. As for the existence of her third martial soul, strictly speaking, it is not a martial soul that belongs to her.

It should be a martial soul similar to the [Necromancer Saint God] that Electrolux gave to Huo Yuhao.

Essentially formed from a trace of the true god's origin, it cannot be attached to any soul rings, but it plays a very powerful role and each has its own unique power. For example, Tang Wutong's Trident of the Sea God's mark will spontaneously protect its master when it encounters a predicament that the host cannot handle. Huo Yuhao's Necromancer Saint God can use it to ignore the rules of Douluo to cast necromancy and purification power.

"Is that so, Tang San..." Su Ming's expression calmed down. In the end, relying on one's father's connections is also a kind of ability, and he didn't feel that it was unfair.

When Tang Wutong woke up and found herself caught off guard, Su Ming did not take the opportunity to attack. She was embarrassed and annoyed and said, "Are you looking down on me?"

"Unleash your full potential, show your strongest abilities, lest you resent being defeated and accuse me of taking advantage of you." Su Ming's calm tone exuded confidence.

"you!"

Tang Wutong's eyes flashed with anger. Her proud personality did not allow her to be weaker than others. Her aura surged, and a golden, dazzling light shone forth. Her second and third soul rings lit up, and the trident mark of the Sea God on her forehead shone brightly. A magnificent and vast divine power covered her entire body, amplifying her combat power in all aspects.

The Light of the Butterfly Goddess! The Butterfly Goddess Slash!

The dazzling blue wings simultaneously turned into a deep gold. Tang Wutong clasped her hands together, her palms gradually separating, and the sacred and majestic power of light swirled and gathered wildly.

Soon, a crimson-gold sphere appeared between her palms. Under the flash of light, the crimson-gold sphere expanded at an astonishing speed. In the blink of an eye, it had grown to more than a foot in diameter. Around the crimson-gold sphere, there was also strong golden lightning swirling, illuminating Tang Wutong's entire body and turning her into gold.

"Since you want to witness my full strength, then don't blame me for showing no mercy," she shouted.

The Light of the Butterfly God was originally an area-of-effect attack soul skill. With the help of the Trident of the Sea God's mark, the condensed power of light did not dissipate and transformed into an amplifying soul skill, charging up for the strongest attack, Butterfly God Slash. With the fusion of divine power, it finally unleashed an attack even stronger than that of the Soul King.

Because the charging time is too long, it is almost impossible to use it in battle. However, now that her opponent is arrogant and allows her to take a long time to release the power, Tang Wutong disregards the consequences and piles up the power to the maximum.

A golden sun seemed to rise in the sky, and the thick sacred aura ignited the power of light, burning up streams of golden sacred fire. The scorching heat enveloped an area of ​​hundreds of feet in radius, and the golden-red landscape before our eyes was dazzling, with the rocks on the ground turning crimson.

Su Ming suddenly realized that he seemed to have sensed a trace of the essence of the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul, and the three pairs of blue and gold dazzling wings of the Goddess of Light Butterfly were also somewhat similar to the Angel Martial Soul.

"Alas, it's a great pity that I can't compete with the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul in the same era!" Su Ming sighed, opening his palm and a stream of azure chaotic energy surged out, which then stirred up a strong storm.

Strands of azure energy swirled and converged around Su Ming's palm, and suddenly a pair of jet-black giant wings unfurled from Su Ming's back, faintly shimmering with azure-purple light. At the same time, an extremely dark and ferocious aura rose from his body.

At this moment, the earth seemed to return to night, and a huge shadow appeared on the ground, which, when viewed from above, resembled a crouching, ferocious tiger.

The two clashed fiercely, dividing the world into two parts: the sky was dazzlingly golden-red, while the earth was shrouded in darkness.

Tang Wutong was about to lose control of the crimson-gold light between her palms, so she suddenly threw it downwards.

At the same time, Su Ming stared calmly at the blazing sun that had fallen to earth, his palm facing the sky. He slowly raised his arm, and the extremely concentrated dark blue-green light ball floated up, swaying as it met the dazzling sun.

In terms of mastery of soul skills, the two have already distinguished themselves. The former has a magnificent aura and leaks energy, while the latter suppresses and restrains himself, remaining calm and composed.

Buzz!

The moment the two orbs of light touched, the world seemed to fall silent. The next instant, a vast and violent surge of energy exploded from the center, spreading wildly in all directions.

The two orbs of light clashed together in the air, eventually squeezing into an irregular sphere that suddenly expanded.

In the sky, the azure sphere emitted beams of golden light resembling crescent moons, blooming outwards like petals, frantically cutting through space. A streak of bluish-black light rapidly spread outwards, and countless wind blades instantly engulfed large swathes of golden light blades.

Finally, it transformed into a dazzling, crystalline moon that erupted hundreds of meters in the sky. Inside, the dense, chaotic wind blades roamed in a blurry, indistinct pattern, and endless blue-purple light bloomed, instantly creating a dark blue-green light curtain over the training ground, a truly magnificent sight.

【Butterfly God Slash】is essentially a compressed bundle of 108 slashes of light that bursts forth upon hitting an enemy, frantically slicing them apart.

It was very similar to Su Ming's [Thunderstorm], except that the wind blades that Su Ming split off were far less powerful individually than the Holy Light Demon-Slaying Slash, but in terms of quantity, there were at least tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, of wind blades intertwined and cut, devouring the Butterfly God Slash in a forceful manner.

"What's this move called?" Tang Wutong, who was thrown back into the air by the aftershock, was stiff and somewhat disoriented, and asked in a dry voice.

The outcome is decided! Even though she unleashed her strongest move, her opponent didn't even manage to use a single soul skill.

“Nameless, it’s just a way of using soul power,” Su Ming said calmly. This was the result of his research on the essence of the wind attribute [Disintegration] during this period. He had made initial modifications to [Thunderstorm], adding the disintegration attribute, and it could be released independently without the external soul bone [Thunderstorm].

Tang Wutong remained silent, withdrew her martial spirit, and turned to leave.

Su Ming watched her departing figure. Unlike Gu Yuena, he had held back in his fight against this second-generation god, only managing to injure her at most, just to prevent Tang San from targeting her before she grew up... Fortunately, he had the Silver Dragon King as a shield.

"Sigh, when will I be invincible and fearless?" Su Ming felt a little frustrated, and his desire to become stronger grew stronger.

In fact, the era of Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect was very unfriendly to transmigrators, and he was born with an evil martial soul, but what did that matter to Su Ming? Adversity could not defeat Su Ming, but instead aroused his fighting spirit. He was a hardcore player.

Unlike some transmigrators who have already entered the world of Douyu, yet still don't fight or compete when everything is uncertain, instead desperately flattering others and losing all their fighting spirit, becoming a god isn't something that can be done through charity.

What Su Ming didn't know was that the moment Tang Wutong turned to leave, tears welled up in her pink-blue eyes, leaving two streams down her fair face.

This is the first time in my life that I've experienced a setback after a period of smooth sailing.

In fact, before her battle with Su Ming, Tang Wutong had secretly fought Gu Yuena. The process was the same, with no sense of game experience. She was suppressed by her opponent's best light element throughout and ultimately lost. This sense of defeat reached its peak after she was defeated by Su Ming.

For a moment, Tang Wutong felt like she was a complete waste, utterly despondent, even though she was supposed to be the "Child of God."

One can only say they were born in the wrong era, unfortunately encountering two such young god-kings.

If Su Ming knew this, she would probably be quite moved. If it were her father, Tang San, he would have laughed off this minor setback and would have been motivated to catch up.

Don't you see how Qian Renxue, who possessed a god-level martial soul, suffered defeat after defeat? Even though someone else became a god first, Tang San still dared to draw his sword, unwilling to fall behind. Even when facing two gods alone, he was still fearless in his fight to the death. (In a fantasy world, if you change "god" to "emperor," this template is indeed inspiring.)

Ultimately, the advantage of twin martial souls lies in the later stages. This kind of talent is not much different from that of a god-level martial soul, but without a strong enough heart, even the strongest talent is useless.

It's clear that Tang San had already seen through Tang Wutong's personality in the original novel. Since she lacked strength, he figured she could make up for it with talent. He devised various plans to enhance his daughter's talent and even brought in the chosen one of the era as a guarantee.

(After reading the original novel of Douluo Continent, Tang San at that time was indeed quite good, a true hero. He overcame all kinds of setbacks, although he was mostly a bit of a literary type.)
