The Evil Soul Master is actually myself

The girl's silver hair danced in the air, exuding a cold and arrogant aura. She pointed her finger at Su Ming, and the surrounding seven-colored field dimmed, gradually turning into a gray and turbid chaotic color, viscous like glass liquid, easily swallowing up a large area of ​​blue-purple-black clouds and night sky.

Su Ming felt a tremendous pressure. He couldn't understand why he was being suppressed when he was at the same level.

Finally, through the boy's vast mental power, some clues were discovered.

At this moment, the tyrant's domain, intertwined with thunder, had been compressed into a small area. However, the condensed domain was like a pure land of gods, a small patch of translucent, purplish-blue crystal pure land, radiating endless brilliant light. Su Ming sat cross-legged on it, his appearance solemn and dignified, impervious to all laws, with a small silver sun shining brightly between his eyebrows.

He suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards the source of the long, suspended thread of spiritual energy. In the audience, Huo Yuhao's clear eyes shone with a bright, sparkling light, and behind him, a handsome boy with pink and blue hair placed his hands on Huo Yuhao's shoulders.

"Found it! I never expected that Gu Yuena, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, would actually use a cheat?!" Su Ming shouted, his powerful mental force severing a hidden and ethereal mental link. He said with great distress.

Su Ming had been stalling for time with words while trying to find Gu Yuena's weakness, and that's how he made the surprise discovery.

As expected, once Huo Yuhao's mental detection sharing was interrupted, Gu Yuena's mastery of the seven elements decreased significantly, bringing her to the same level as him.

Su Ming felt a great relief from the pressure, but as he gazed at the audience and his lips twitched, he felt like he had been cheated on. What happened to being angels to each other?

Huo Yuhao is dead!

The spirit-eyed boy in the audience grunted, and after waking up, he gave an embarrassed smile at the arena. He knew that his little trick had been discovered by Brother Ming. Under the vast spiritual power, Huo Yuhao felt as insignificant as a mayfly. Fortunately, his opponent had already shown mercy, otherwise he would have suffered a serious injury to his soul.

The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm in Huo Yuhao's mind didn't say anything more, obediently lying dormant in Huo Yuhao's mental sea, pretending to be dead.

"This is just a part of your trump card, isn't it? Show us your true strength." Su Ming came back to his senses and calmly looked up at the sky, saying to Gu Yuena.

The current amplification of Huo Yuhao is not enough to suppress him!

"Hmm? You finally found out." Gu Yuena looked down at Su Ming from her high position, her white jade-like index finger pointing at Su Ming. A thick black soul ring rose around her, standing alongside a crown of three rings, one yellow and two purple, shining brightly together.

Gu Yuena actually became a Soul Master?!

Su Ming was shocked and couldn't help but criticize himself. He had thought he could compete with Gu Yuena at the same level, but who knew that the Douluo people didn't care about such things. She had already left him behind and advanced to the Soul Master level a long time ago!

"How could I not have thought of that? Humans need to hunt for spirit rings to advance, while transformed spirit beasts can condense spirit rings on their own once their cultivation reaches a certain level!"

Su Ming felt regretful. He truly felt a sense of despair. Qiongqi was lagging behind in every aspect, from core to support. Could they win this match?

Chapter Ninety-Five: A Narrow Victory

Su Ming's seasoned and composed mindset quickly calmed him down, reigniting his fighting spirit!

So what if he's a God-level Soul Master? Isn't this world full of rugged paths? How can we hesitate because of that?

The joy of fighting against the heavens is endless, and so is the joy of fighting against people. Su Ming has always been looking forward to a formidable opponent who can put pressure on him, and when he encounters one, he will go all out!

"Although it's immoral to bully the weak, I don't want to lose any of the matches in my life!" Gu Yuena declared with a hint of admiration in her eyes after seeing Su Ming quickly regain his fighting spirit.

“There’s no need for that.” The black-haired boy’s expression was calm as he murmured, “This is your advantage.”

"And I, too, possess a foundation that you can hardly fathom!" Su Ming exclaimed confidently, his invincible charisma undiminished.

As the sky gradually turned into a chaotic color, streams of viscous light converged, and an immense and boundless pressure descended from the heavens, like the wrath of the gods.

Su Ming knew that the only way to defeat Gu Yuena now, besides completely unleashing the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, was to take an unorthodox approach.

Buzz!

"Finally, someone has managed to push me to this point." Su Ming smiled and sighed. A sinister gray light appeared in the boy's eyes. Black and gold light shone from his left palm, and fine purple scales spread out to protect his tiger's mouth and wrist. Five sharp and wide claw blades were unleashed, making a clanging metallic sound.

The three rings of soul skills surrounding him shone with dazzling brilliance, bursting forth with endless electricity and intertwining strands of black and purple lightning. With every move he made, he stirred up a raging storm, with wind and thunder surging, accompanied by the Netherworld Demon God Biao.

Immediately afterwards, a heavy and condensed wave of blood energy rose from Su Ming's body, and the next moment it began to boil wildly. A scorching and violent blood-red flame burst out from his body, and the boy's hair stood on end. The scarlet flames dyed it a strange and domineering black-red color, and his eyebrows and hair swayed like black-red wild grass with tenacious vitality, wantonly scattering vast blood energy and life.

[Bloodlust]!

[Second Bloodbath]!

Su Ming's shirt was torn apart by the violent energy tide, and his strong and slender skin shone with the indestructible obsidian luster, like a black and gold god statue. Evil and noble purple-black mandala patterns spread out from his chest, the patterns were exquisite and evil, full of arrogant and domineering majesty.

His powerful heart pounded like a blood pump, and Su Ming could clearly feel the thick, mercury-like precious blood burning within his body. Meanwhile, the crystalline bone marrow, glowing with a layer of purple holy light, was constantly producing blood. He clenched his fist, and a vast, inexhaustible power surged up, making him feel as if he could do anything!

Su Ming's current state is like that of a god descending to earth. Every move he makes stirs up a storm. His crystal-clear body floats automatically in mid-air. The boy's eyes are pitch black, with no visible whites or pupils. His aura is as majestic as a demon god, standing tall in the human world!

"This is?! There's another external soul bone?" Xian Lin'er exclaimed in surprise, her jade hands resting on the railing.

In the VIP section, even the usually composed Elder Xuan was moved. Looking at the young man in the arena who resembled a demon god, he muttered to himself, "I didn't expect him to have reached this level at such a young age, deeply exploring the potential of his martial soul and initially stimulating the ancient bloodline within him."

Upon hearing this, the several high-ranking deans around him turned their heads in surprise.

“These days, only Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi among the younger generation can barely do it, and they are four years older than Su Ming!” Yan Shaozhe sighed. He said to Xian Lin’er, “After the competition, you can give him some pointers. I estimate he will master the skill of soul ring fusion very soon.”

"Hmph! I would have instructed them even without you saying so. I take responsibility for my own disciples." The still-attractive and beautiful woman didn't give her mortal enemy any face and said bluntly.

Yan Shaozhe shook his head with a wry smile, already used to it, and turned back to continue watching the game silently.

Buzz!

In the arena, layers of cyan-purple mixed with pitch-black domains spread out beneath Su Ming's feet, forcefully pushing open the chaotic sky and occupying half of the territory!

As his mastery of the power of qi and blood improved, Su Ming finally developed his own version of [Blood Rage]. Compared to the original Su family version, his was more ruthless, burning his life force along with it. Anyway, he was a tanky blood type, so he could have plenty of it!

"Elemental Torrent!"

Gu Yuena roared from the sky, her soul power surging, and a magnificent seven-colored celestial river descended straight into the heavens, vast and boundless, flowing continuously from the chaotic sea, washing away all the filth of the mortal world.

"Heavenly Waterfall and Flowing Clouds!"

In his tyrant form, Su Ming's eye sockets were pitch black. He seemed to be gazing at a torrent of colorful elements, but his pupils did not reflect a single shadow.

Su Ming looked up and simply reached out to grasp the sky, which stirred up wind, thunder, and tides. Amidst the changing celestial phenomena, a winding, snow-white stream of air surged in the vast and boundless sea of ​​clouds, spiraling and spreading like a white dragon.

"This is...?" Gu Yuena had seen Su Ming's Heavenly Waterfall Clouds before, but this time she noticed something different.

As the sky-covering, purplish-blue dragon wings behind Su Ming shed their fine, hard scales, revealing pure black wings, the crystal-clear dragon scales floated up in the air like purplish-blue petals. Large swaths of petals danced and flowed into brilliant rivers, swirling and rising into a snow-white storm in the sky. The scene was beautiful and magnificent, like stepping into a fairy tale.

Gu Yuena noticed with her sharp eyes that wisps of purple lightning were "flowing" in the river of "petals" flying all over the sky, smoothly blending into the shimmering blue air currents.

It's hard to imagine that the violent and extremely fast lightning could flow as slowly as the wind, and its texture looks soft and delicate.

"Elemental fusion?!" The silver-haired girl exclaimed in disbelief. She realized that the degree of fusion of wind and thunder elements was even stronger than hers!

If Gu Yuena were at her peak and used her Silver Dragon King form to unleash "Elemental Torrent," all the elements would merge together perfectly like this; more accurately, it should be called "Chaotic Torrent."

The various elements could no longer be distinguished or extracted by human means; they completely merged into one, becoming a chaotic color. Generally speaking, the more vibrant and colorful it is, the lower the degree of fusion.

Now, this fusion method has actually appeared on her and her competitors, and the colors of wind and thunder have almost been fused together into a bluish-purple.

Su Ming seemed to sense Gu Yuena's shock, and said calmly, "Do you know why I rarely show off this elemental mastery in front of others, Gu Yuena?"

"Why keep talking about things that are easy to do?" He paused, then smiled.

Gu Yuena: "..."

As the two exchanged words, the two vast and enormous, winding "dragons" roared and began to fight each other. The "Heavenly Waterfall Clouds," which had been moving slowly like wind elements, seemed to have transformed back into violent and powerful lightning attributes, fighting against its opponent in a frenzied manner.

Rumble!

The two celestial rivers collided, creating a deafening roar that shook the heavens and earth, causing the clouds in the sky to shatter and the sky to change from a dazzling seven colors to a pure and natural azure.

buzz~

Several deans in the VIP seats intervened, containing the raging energy tide that was sweeping in all directions within a certain area, allowing the audience to safely enjoy the magnificent curtain.

The earth continued to tremble, the sky shook, and layers of silvery-white ripples spread out, shaking the very space.

Finally, after the two celestial rivers swallowed and dissolved each other, everything returned to calm.

The arena had vanished, replaced by a flat, crystal-clear, chaotic-colored crystalline ground with a smooth and delicate feel, as if the two had completely fused together.

Click~ Click~

On the thick layer of chaotic colored crystals on the ground, countless cracks spread and expanded to a radius of hundreds of meters, creating a deep pit. The black-haired boy, now back to normal, punched through the solidified crystal and stepped out.

His face was pale, and he looked weak and ailing.

Su Ming gazed at the black dot in the sky, which gradually became clearer and clearer, vaguely resembling a blurry human figure.

Gu Yuena was thrown into the air by the massive explosion; the enormous shockwave sent her soaring into the heavens.

"To be able to fight me to a draw with the cultivation of a Soul Venerable, I, Gu Yuena, am willing to call you the strongest Soul Venerable!" The silver-haired girl's face was pale, and a trace of crystal blood spilled from the corner of her mouth. She said arrogantly and coldly.

"However, the game is about to end. Your reserves are almost depleted. Let's see how you defend against this next move!" The deep black soul rings surrounding Gu Yuena lit up, and a seven-colored mark shone brightly between her eyebrows.

That move was just an elemental domain technique, but this one is her trump card! [Seven-Colored Dragon Soul] + [Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Skill]!

"Yes, the competition is over!" Su Ming smiled broadly.

Even as Fan Yu appeared before Gu Yuena, stopping her from unleashing her powerful attack, he declared, "Su Ming wins the first match of the individual competition!"

"What?!" The beautiful girl with silver hair and purple eyes was stunned, she couldn't believe it.

Chapter Ninety-Six: The Final Team Match

"Why?! I haven't been defeated yet!" Gu Yuena shouted angrily at the referee.

"Even if we only look at the battle situation, he is the one who is at a disadvantage. Why should he eliminate me!" the girl said indignantly, pointing at Su Ming on the ground in the distance.

Fan Yu shook his head helplessly and explained, "This is a ring competition, not a life-or-death battle in the wild. It's a pity that you were eliminated because you were knocked out of bounds."

Gu Yuena was completely stunned. She looked at Su Ming, who was smiling and spreading his hands.

His appearance made her so angry she wanted to rush up and beat him up.

The silver-haired beauty's chest heaved with anger, and it took her a while to calm down before she said, "Su Ming, you can't escape your fate forever. Just wait and see what happens during the team competition!"

Su Ming was somewhat surprised that Gu Yuena could remain calm after he had ambushed her; she had indeed grown a lot.

Gu Yuena's confident statement, as if the group stage was already won, was met with little rebuttal from the young man. This was because his teammates were all in the CBA (Category A), and there was no hope of winning the group stage. Even in the individual competition, he was the only one carrying the team.

This match merely dragged the game into the third round; victory remains elusive.

Su Ming did not step down. His face was pale and he looked somewhat weak as he said to the Dragon King, "Next!"

Upon hearing this, Tang Wutong almost couldn't help but jump out, because the other party looked really weak, as if he would fall over with the slightest push.

Although it might seem like taking advantage of someone in distress, it's not shameful if it's for the sake of winning the competition! Plus, it allows me to settle personal scores.

Just as Tang Wutong was getting restless, Gu Yuena stopped her: "Don't go. We'll concede the individual competition. Don't be fooled by his appearance. He might just be adding fuel to the fire."

Gu Yuena knew Su Ming's beastly physique, with extremely thick skin and flesh. At first, she even thought that the Golden Dragon King had been reincarnated, and that he had recovered almost completely after being seriously injured in just one night.

Now, several months have passed, and Su Ming has undergone a complete transformation. She really couldn't estimate his exact condition.

"Why? Why drag it out to the third team match when it could have been resolved in two rounds? His condition is really not good!" Tang Wutong questioned Gu Yuena's decision.
