Xiao Wu used her arms to hurl Ma Hongjun high into the air and followed him like a shadow. At the moment he began to fall, her legs clamped around his neck like scissors, carrying him through a 1,080-degree spin in mid-air.
The final slam smashed into the ground with a terrifying rotational force.
"Boom—"
A shallow pit cracked open in the ground. Ma Hongjun lay slumped in the pit like a pile of mud, completely losing consciousness, with traces of blood from the shock remaining at the corner of his mouth.
Xiao Wu landed lightly and clapped her hands. Though there was a thin layer of sweat on her forehead, her eyes were incredibly bright: "Done!"
God King Tang San couldn't help but sigh: "Back then, Xiao Wu helped Ma Hongjun by using that move on Bu Le. I never thought that today, Xiao Wu would use it on Ma Hongjun himself."
Seeing Ma Hongjun in such a state, he felt a bit of pity in his heart.
Aside from Xiao Wu and his parents, the one he cared about most was Ma Hongjun. Otherwise, why would he give Ma Hongjun so many good things whenever he obtained them?
God King Tang San thought secretly to himself that after he completed the Possession of Xu Yuan, he would once again take Ma Hongjun as his younger brother.
Hearing God King Tang San's thoughts, Xu Yuan couldn't help but remark that Xiao Wu was an accident, while Ma Hongjun was the true love.
Flender and Yu Xiaogang watched the Shrek Team being crushed, and both couldn't help but sigh in their hearts.
This was a complete suppression of strength; it would be extremely difficult to defeat Blue Tyrant Academy.
Yu Xiaogang felt somewhat unwilling in his heart; he was absolutely not wrong.
Tang San was the best proof.
It must be that Dai Mubai and the others were simply too useless, dragging Tang San down.
If Tang San were allowed to join the Lanba Battle Team and he managed them, he could ensure the Lanba Battle Team won a top-three spot in the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament.
Thinking of this, Yu Xiaogang glanced at Liu Erlong nearby.
For some reason, Liu Erlong looked much more beautiful than before, which made his heart flutter slightly.
What had happened before was simply Liu Erlong being dissatisfied with him for abandoning her.
As long as he chatted with Liu Erlong for a while and waited until she was in a better mood, she would once again fall hopelessly in love with him.
Yu Xiaogang approached Liu Erlong, cleared his throat, and said to her, "Erlong... I..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Liu Erlong slapped Yu Xiaogang directly across the face.
Yu Xiaogang clutched his face, looking at Liu Erlong in disbelief, his eyes filled with shock and grievance: "Erlong, you..."
Liu Erlong's gaze was icy, her face no longer showing any of the tenderness of the past, only the suppressed anger of many years: "Yu Xiaogang, don't call me Erlong. You don't deserve to."
Yu Xiaogang took a deep breath and spoke again: "Liu Erlong, I have something I want to discuss with you."
Liu Erlong's eyes remained cold, her brows furrowed, clearly not intending to give him any face: "Speak quickly, I don't have time to waste on you."
Yu Xiaogang clutched his face, his knuckles turning white from the force, yet he still suppressed his grievance and tried to make his tone sound calm: "I know Blue Tyrant Academy has great momentum right now, but the Continental Elite Tournament is not like an ordinary soul fight; brute force alone isn't enough. You've seen Tang San's talent. If you let him join and let me lead the team, I guarantee I can help Blue Tyrant Academy achieve a good ranking."
After hearing this, Liu Erlong was so angered by Yu Xiaogang that she laughed: "Why do you think you can?"
She was truly seeing Yu Xiaogang in a new light; she hadn't expected him to be so shameless.
Yu Xiaogang was taken aback by Liu Erlong's question, but then he straightened his back.
A customary confidence belonging to a Master of Theory appeared on his face, as if the grievance from being hit just now had never existed.
Yu Xiaogang said with extreme confidence: "Because I understand the growth patterns of Spirit Masters! Look at Tang San; how was he able to grow from a Blue Silver Grass trash Spirit to his current level in such a short time? It was because of the cultivation plan I tailored for him and the precise matching of spirit rings!"
Yu Xiaogang became more excited as he spoke, even forgetting the pain on his face as he gestured with his hands: "The Continental Elite Tournament is full of hidden talents; it's not something that can be won by fighting alone. Formations, attribute counters, spirit power distribution... all of these require theoretical support! The students of Blue Tyrant Academy have strength, but they lack systematic tactical guidance. They're like loose sand; if they encounter a strong team and only know how to meet force with force, they will eventually suffer!"
"I have studied Spirit Master theory for decades. I can calculate with my eyes closed which Spirit Master should absorb which spirit ring and what formation each team should use!" Yu Xiaogang's eyes shone with a startling brightness, carrying a near-obsessive certainty. "If you let me lead Lanba, I can push every student's potential to the limit. How the agility-attack system should engage, how the attack system should tank damage, and how the control system should control the field—I know all of this like the back of my hand!"
Yu Xiaogang paused, as if he felt he wasn't persuasive enough, and added: "I know Tang San. Let him join Lanba and follow my plan. Never mind the top three; even aiming for the championship isn't impossible!"
By the end, Yu Xiaogang even spoke with a slight, subtle hint of seeking credit.
It was as if he had forgotten how he had just been hit, becoming immersed in his own World of theory, certain that Liu Erlong would be moved by these words.
Watching Yu Xiaogang immersed in his self-boasting, Liu Erlong grew increasingly disgusted with him.
"Theory?" Liu Erlong sneered. Before Yu Xiaogang could react, a fist the size of a casserole dish smashed toward him with the whistling sound of wind. "Can your theory calculate how much pain the person you abandoned felt?!"
"Bang—"
The fist smashed solidly into Yu Xiaogang's face, more than ten times heavier than the slap from before.
Yu Xiaogang didn't even have time to groan. He flew backward like a broken kite, crashing heavily against the railing of the Soul Arena before sliding limply to the ground, passing out immediately with a trickle of blood escaping his mouth.
The surroundings instantly fell into a dead silence.
Flender's eyelids twitched in fear. Just as he was about to step forward, he was pinned in place by a single look from Liu Erlong.
She slowly withdrew her fist, her knuckles white from the force, her chest heaving violently as if she had finally exhaled the turbid air accumulated over many years.
"My students are not for you to lecture," Liu Erlong's voice wasn't loud, but it clearly reached everyone present. "My academy has even less need for a coward like you who only knows how to talk to lead it."
She glanced at the unconscious Yu Xiaogang, her eyes showing no more emotion, as if she had just disposed of a piece of eyesore trash.
"Drag him away." Liu Erlong tilted her chin toward the nearby staff, her tone returning to its usual decisiveness. "Don't let him be an eyesore here."
Hearing Liu Erlong's words, the staff quickly dragged the unconscious Yu Xiaogang away.
On the competition stage, Xu Yuan's group and Tang San's group watched the scene, not knowing what to say.
They were fighting on the stage, yet a fight had actually broken out in the spectator stands as well.
However, Yu Xiaogang had been instantly defeated by Liu Erlong.
Xu Yuan was somewhat curious about what they had discussed that made Liu Erlong punch Yu Xiaogang away
Flender sighed somewhat speechlessly, "Xiaogang, I just told you yesterday, and you've already forgotten today."
After saying that, he walked toward the infirmary.
In the subsequent battle, Xu Yuan's group crushed Tang San and his team, securing victory.
After the match ended, Xu Yuan's group walked toward the hotel.
Xiao Wu curiously asked Liu Erlong, "Teacher, why did you hit that jerk?"
Liu Erlong slowed her pace and glanced sideways at Xiao Wu, her eyes turning colder. "Because he wanted to shove Tang San into our Blue Tyrant Academy and even wanted me to hand over the academy's management to him, claiming he could win the championship with his theories."
"Huh?" Xiao Wu's eyes widened. "People from his own academy can't even beat us, so what right does he have to manage us?"
"Based on that self-righteous theory of his," Liu Erlong sneered, her tone filled with disdain. "He thinks our Blue Tyrant Academy students are all brainless brutes who won't get far without his schemes. He even said Tang San's growth is entirely his credit and wants to use Tang San as a bargaining chip to turn Blue Tyrant Academy into a tool for proving himself."
Walking beside them, Xu Yuan understood the situation.
No wonder Liu Erlong was so furious; Yu Xiaogang's calculations were essentially trampling on Liu Erlong's dignity.
Zhu Zhuqing also frowned. "Is he so certain that Tang San will listen to him?"
"Because he only ever believes in his own theories, not in people's hearts," Liu Erlong's voice deepened. "He thinks everyone should revolve around him, that the debts of the past can be wiped clean, and that I, Liu Erlong, am still that fool who can be deceived by a few sweet words."
Toward the end, a hint of suppressed rage resurfaced in her voice. "He calculated that the Continental Elite Tournament is important and that I want you all to go further, so he tried to take advantage of the situation and use a so-called'shortcut' to control Blue Tyrant Academy. If I don't hit someone like him, who should I hit?"
Xiao Wu listened indignantly, clenching her fists. "That's too much! If he comes again, I'll help you hit him, Teacher!"
"Alright." Liu Erlong was amused by her and patted Xiao Wu on the shoulder. "But we don't need to do it ourselves. Someone who only knows how to scheme from the shadows can't withstand even the slightest storm. When the Elite Tournament comes, we'll use our strength to smash his theories to pieces; that will be the best counterattack."
Xu Yuan nodded in agreement. "Teacher is right. When the time comes, let him see that we can win just as well without his theories."
After the group returned to the hotel, everyone went back to their respective rooms.
After staying for a few days, Xu Yuan's group returned to Heaven Dou City together.
After traveling by carriage for several days, Xu Yuan's group arrived back in Heaven Dou City.
"Finally back. I really don't like riding in carriages," Xiao Wu said as she got off the carriage and stretched.
The others nodded, in complete agreement with Xiao Wu's words.
Liu Erlong looked at Xu Yuan and the others and said, "Everyone has worked hard during this period. Rest for a few days before continuing your training."
"You got it!" Tai Long was the first to respond, scratching the back of his head with a silly grin. "I'll go back and take a hot bath; my bones are about to fall apart from all that jolting."
The group walked toward the academy, chatting and laughing. As soon as they entered the school, they felt a powerful aura approaching them.
God King Tang San said with some surprise, "So soon? I thought it would take a while. Xu Yuan, leave the school first."
Xu Yuan said to Liu Erlong and his companions, "Teacher, I just remembered I have something to take care of. I'll be heading out for a bit."
Liu Erlong, Xiao Wu, and the others expressed their understanding and continued toward the dormitories.
Meanwhile, Xu Yuan left Blue Tyrant Academy and went out onto the street.
"Kid, are you Xu Yuan?" Before long, an old man appeared in front of Xu Yuan.
The old man was tall and thin, looking like a javelin. His hair and beard were dark green, and his eyes were like emeralds.
He was expressionless, with sunken cheeks and disheveled green hair. He wore only a simple gray robe.
Xu Yuan looked at the old man and asked, "Senior, who are you?"
He had naturally guessed the other party's identity: it was the Poison Douluo, Dugu Bo.
Some readers of fan fiction think Dugu Bo is just an unlucky guy who gives away items.
In reality, Dugu Bo is not a good person at all.
After Tang San was taken to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well by Dugu Bo, Dugu Bo fed him poison and left him to deal with it himself.
After it was resolved, he wanted to kill Tang San directly to take his blood. If he hadn't eventually learned who Tang San's father was, Tang San would have most likely died at Dugu Bo's hands.
For some fan fiction protagonists without a background to go running eagerly to Dugu Bo is purely a death wish.
Dugu Bo looked at Xu Yuan and said, "Your name is Xu Yuan, right?"
Xu Yuan nodded slightly. "Junior Xu Yuan greets you. May I ask why Senior is looking for me?"
Dugu Bo's emerald eyes sized Xu Yuan up, his gaze filled with scrutiny. "I heard you neutralized my granddaughter's poison?"
After Dugu Yan returned, she told him about Xu Yuan, which gave him a glimmer of hope for a solution.
Xu Yuan asked, "Dugu Yan? If it's her, then yes, I was the one who resolved it."
A green light flashed in Dugu Bo's eyes, but his tone remained flat. "Come with me."
Before he had even finished speaking, Dugu Bo grabbed Xu Yuan's arm and took flight.
Xu Yuan felt a massive force, his body instantly leaving the ground as the wind whistled past his ears.
Dugu Bo's speed was astonishing. The scenery of Heaven Dou City below receded rapidly, and in just a few moments, they were among the high mountains and lofty ridges outside the city.
"Senior, where are you taking me?" Xu Yuan asked in a low voice.
Dugu Bo didn't look back, his voice as cold and hard as iron. "You'll know when we get there. Stay quiet, and don't force me to take action."
...In the blink of an eye, half a day passed.
Xu Yuan and Dugu Bo had already arrived at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
As soon as he arrived at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Xu Yuan felt a vast amount of energy between heaven and earth. If he were to Cultivate here, he could rapidly increase his strength.
Dugu Bo looked at Xu Yuan and said, "I am Dugu Yan's grandfather. She told me you know that both she and I are poisoned. Do you have a solution?"
Xu Yuan nodded and said, "That's right, I have a way to solve it."
Dugu Bo thought for a moment. "How can you prove it?"
Xu Yuan smiled and said, "Senior, since I can see that you're poisoned, how could I not have a solution?"
Although he didn't know how, it didn't stop him from bluffing; after all, he had God King Tang San.
To succeed in his Possession, that guy certainly wouldn't miss the Immortal Herbs of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Dugu Bo thought for a moment, then took out three types of poison and forced Xu Yuan to consume them.
"If you really have the skill, neutralize these poisons within a day. We'll talk again after you've resolved them," Dugu Bo said indifferently to Xu Yuan.
After saying that, Dugu Bo flew away, giving Xu Yuan time to neutralize the poisons.
Having consumed the poisons, Xu Yuan said to God King Tang San in his mind, "Lord Martial Soul, I'll be relying on you now."
God King Tang San said with absolute confidence, "Don't worry, it's just a trivial poison
Following God King Tang San's instructions, Xu Yuan took the Infernal Apricot and the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass, consuming them together.
"Lord Martial Soul, it doesn't seem to be as you said; I don't feel anything at all," Xu Yuan said with some confusion after eating the Infernal Apricot and the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass.
God King Tang San: "????"
Wait, man, what's the deal with you?
Back then, when he ate these things, he almost lost half his life, yet you ate them and nothing happened?
The heavens are truly unfair!
Thinking that Xu Yuan's body would be his in the future, the dissatisfaction in God King Tang San's heart vanished instantly.
"Alright, enter the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well."
"Okay."
Hearing God King Tang San's words, Xu Yuan jumped into the spring without a second thought.
As soon as he entered the spring, Xu Yuan felt a mix of cold and heat, and gradually, he began to feel a bit sleepy.
Unknowingly, Xu Yuan fell into a deep sleep.
Xu Yuan's body began to sink slowly, and after a while, he settled at the bottom of the lake.
God King Tang San emerged from Xu Yuan's Sea of Spirit and headed towards the bottom of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
He actually knew that the corpses of the Ice Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King lay beneath the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. The reason he hadn't dealt with the corpses was that there was no point.
Instead of dealing with those two Dragon King corpses, it was better to let them accelerate the growth of the Heaven And Earth Treasures here, which could help nurture his own people.
This time, he intended to take a portion of the Origin from the Ice Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King to strengthen Xu Yuan's body and Spirit.
Once the body and Spirit were upgraded, spirit power wouldn't be a problem at all.
In this life, he intended to reach the level of the Dragon God, or even the legendary Creation God level.
After a while, God King Tang San saw two massive corpses.
The Ice Dragon King on the left was covered in deep blue scales. Even though it had long since lost its life force, never-melting ice crystals still formed on the scales, emitting a cold air capable of freezing the Soul.
The Fire Dragon King on the right was covered in reddish-gold scales. Faint phantom flames lingered around its corpse as if they could reignite at any moment and burn everything to ashes.
"You've been slumbering for so long; it's time to be put to good use," God King Tang San whispered, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.
He could clearly see the remaining Origin power within the two dragon corpses. It was pure energy at the Dragon King level, containing the ultimate Laws of Ice and Fire.
With a wave of his hand, a portion of the Origin power left the two dragon corpses and came into his hand.
With a flick of his finger, the two strands of Origin power, as if possessed of life, turned into two streaks of light. They flowed upstream against the spring water and accurately surged into Xu Yuan's body at the bottom of the lake.
Deep blue and crimson light intertwined and flickered on the surface of Xu Yuan's body. His sleeping brow furrowed slightly, as if he were experiencing the tempering of ice and fire in his dreams.
The originally calm surface of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well now rippled with fine waves. The exotic flowers and herbs growing nearby seemed to be summoned; their leaves swayed gently, emitting a more intense glow.
"The extremes of ice and fire should naturally complement each other." God King Tang San looked at the lake's surface, his voice carrying a hint of satisfaction. "Back then, limited by my Physique, I could only use those two Immortal Herbs to neutralize the medicinal properties. But you... you will directly inherit the Dragon King Origin. This is a true stroke of fortune."
Xu Yuan's body slowly floated up from the bottom of the lake. Deep blue ice crystals condensed and melted on his skin, while reddish-gold phantom flames flowed around him without burning him in the slightest.
Two extreme forces clashed and fused within his body. His Meridians were widened and reshaped, and faint dragon patterns appeared on his bones. Even the aura of his Spirit became increasingly majestic.
Just as the two Origin powers were gradually fusing within Xu Yuan's body, the corpses of the Ice Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King suddenly trembled slightly.
From beneath the deep blue scales, a nearly transparent pale blue Remnant Soul quietly drifted out, followed closely by a throbbing crimson Remnant Soul.
These two Remnant Souls had been silent for countless ages, but they suddenly awakened the moment the Origin power was extracted. Like two unwilling obsessions, they followed the energy's trail and rushed straight toward Xu Yuan.
"Hmm?" God King Tang San's pupils constricted. He was about to step in to stop them, but he saw the two Remnant Souls dive into Xu Yuan's brow like swimming fish.
Xu Yuan's body jerked violently, and his floating form shook intensely.
Ice crystals seeped from the corners of his closed eyes, and tiny sparks overflowed from his lips. At his brow, blue light occasionally surged and red flames flared, as if two ancient wills were awakening within him.
These two Remnant Souls did not conflict with Xu Yuan's consciousness; instead, they seemed to have found a new home, wandering through his Meridians and intertwining with the two strands of Origin power.
The dragon patterns on Xu Yuan's bones became clearer, faintly forming totems of ice and fire. The energy fluctuations around him instantly surged several times over, and even the water of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well began to churn violently.
"This..." God King Tang San was stunned.
He had only accounted for the Fusion of the Origin power, but he hadn't expected Remnant Souls to still be hidden within these two corpses.
Now that the Remnant Souls had merged with Xu Yuan, far from causing damage, they deepened his connection with the Laws of Ice and Fire, as if Xu Yuan himself had become the Incarnation of ice and fire... Meanwhile, in the God Realm, at the God Realm Hub.
"Hmm?"
The Asura God suddenly discovered two divine auras on the Douluo Continent.
Although these two divine auras were somewhat weak, it didn't change the fact that they were divine.
After a while, the Asura God found the target.
Looking at Xu Yuan, the Asura God murmured to himself, "Interesting. This child actually accidentally triggered the Remnant Souls of the Ice Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King, and even absorbed both the Remnant Souls and the Origin."
He knew Xu Yuan's potential perfectly well; in the future, he would be at least a First Level God, and with some effort, he could reach the God King level.
He really didn't want to miss out on such a good prospect.
How does Tang San compare to Xu Yuan?
One is heaven and the other is earth; they are completely incomparable.
The Asura God looked at Xu Yuan and said, "No way, I must find a way to make Xu Yuan inherit my God Position."
Now that there was someone 100% guaranteed to become a god, he would absolutely not miss out.
But he needed to find a way to make the Goddess of Life give up on Xu Yuan.
"Big brother, I've come to play with you!"
Just then, someone walked in and spoke to the Asura God.
The Asura God snapped back to his senses and said somewhat helplessly, "Sea God, you're a god after all, can you not be like this?"
The Sea God leaned in with a grin, resting his elbow on the Asura God's shoulder armor. His gaze followed the scene of the Douluo Continent reflected on the screen. "What are you looking at so intently? Isn't this the little fellow the Goddess of Life has her eye on? Why is he covered in the double aura of ice and fire?"
The Asura God glanced at the Sea God. "He absorbed the Remnant Souls and Origin of the Ice Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King. His potential far exceeds expectations."
"Potential?" The Sea God raised an eyebrow, tapping his finger on the screen. "To make a busy man like you stare for so long, I suspect his potential is more than just a little bit, right?"
He suddenly leaned closer and lowered his voice. "Could it be that you're... planning to poach the Goddess of Life's prospect
Asura God didn't deny it, just saying indifferently, "Good birds choose the best trees to perch in. This child can go further by inheriting my God Position."
Sea God stroked his chin, pondering for a while, before his eyes suddenly lit up. "I get it! You want him to inherit your Asura God Position? But the energy in this child is Ice and Fire, which is poles apart from your path of slaughter."
A small thought also popped into his mind; if he could get Xu Yuan to inherit the Sea God Position, he could slip away.
Both men harbored their own ulterior motives on how to abduct Xu Yuan.
On the other side, at the Lake of Life in the Star Dou Great Forest.
"Hmm? The aura of the Water Dragon King and Fire Dragon King. They actually gave their Origins to each other," a Silver Giant Dragon muttered to herself as she opened her eyes.
No matter who the other party was, she had to win them over.
One must know that anyone who could obtain the Origins of the Water Dragon King and Fire Dragon King, whether human or Spirit Beast, would directly soar to the sky even if they were a pig.
If it was a Spirit Beast, she would bring them back and nurture them well.
If it was a human, she would find a way to make them join them; if they were unwilling, then kill them... A day and a night passed, and Xu Yuan emerged from the spring of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Having been strengthened by the Origins and Souls of the Water Dragon King and Fire Dragon King, Xu Yuan was significantly improved in all aspects.
Xu Yuan felt it was quite strange why his Rank hadn't increased.
Logically speaking, given his current physical condition, increasing his Rank by dozens of levels should have been an easy task.
After his confusion passed, Xu Yuan extended his hands. The Blue Silver Emperor and a hammer appeared simultaneously, both Spirits emitting a powerful aura.
Now his Spirits were no longer ordinary Spirits, but Divine Rank Spirits—and not the kind bestowed by a deity.
What surprised Xu Yuan even more was that he could actually release two Spirits at the same time.
One must know that people on the Douluo Continent cannot release or use two Spirits simultaneously, yet he could now do so.
Moreover, Xu Yuan felt he could use the Spirit Abilities of both Spirits at once, which surprised him even more.
God King Tang San looked at Xu Yuan's hammer with a look of surprise.
This... is this the Great Sumeru Hammer?!
He really hadn't expected the Clear Sky Hammer to have an evolved form, and that this evolved form was the Great Sumeru Hammer.
He had always thought the Great Sumeru Hammer was a Spirit Ability, but he hadn't expected it to be the ultimate form of the Clear Sky Hammer.
God King Tang San couldn't help but admire the person who created the Great Sumeru Hammer Spirit Ability; they were truly a Genius.
To be honest, he hadn't really developed the Clear Sky Hammer much.
Mainly because after becoming a god, he had no use for the Clear Sky Hammer at all.
Xu Yuan looked at his hammer and asked God King Tang San curiously, "Lord Martial Soul, what is this Spirit of mine?"
He really didn't know the Clear Sky Hammer had an evolved form; this was the first time he had seen this Spirit. God
King Tang San's gaze was locked tightly on that hammer. "This is... the Great Sumeru Hammer."
"Great Sumeru Hammer?" Xu Yuan repeated, his fingertips lightly touching the body of the hammer.
He only felt an overbearing and matchless power spreading along his arm, as if it could smash all obstacles in the world.
"Yes." Tang San took a deep breath, suppressing the waves in his heart, and slowly explained, "This is the ultimate form of the Clear Sky Hammer. Legend has it that only by comprehending the power of the Clear Sky Hammer to the extreme can one trigger its Origin and evolve it into the Great Sumeru Hammer. It contains the Law of destruction, making it more than a hundred times stronger than an ordinary Clear Sky Hammer."
These words were completely his boasting; he knew nothing about the Great Sumeru Hammer.
Xu Yuan was somewhat surprised; he hadn't expected the Clear Sky Hammer to evolve into the Great Sumeru Hammer.
He had always thought the Great Sumeru Hammer was just a Spirit Ability, not the final form of the Clear Sky Hammer.
Comprehending the power of the Clear Sky Hammer to the extreme?
Did he take him for a fool? In the novels, Tang San hardly used the Clear Sky Hammer.
These words were clearly God King Tang San's boasting.
God King Tang San taught Xu Yuan how to restrain his aura; there was no need for Xu Yuan to expose his strength now.
Just as Xu Yuan restrained his aura, Dugu Bo appeared before him.
Dugu Bo nodded slightly and said, "Not bad. How did you resolve the issue with your body?"
Following God King Tang San's instructions, Xu Yuan told Dugu Bo how he had resolved it.
After hearing Xu Yuan's explanation, killing intent rose in Dugu Bo's heart. He wanted to kill Xu Yuan directly to obtain his blood, which could solve the problem for him and his granddaughter.
In his view, Xu Yuan was just a talented person and nothing more.
Killing him wouldn't affect anything; it was no big deal.
Xu Yuan raised an eyebrow. "Thinking of making a move on me?"
Dugu Bo nodded slightly. "That's right. Why, do you think you can deal with me?"
Yesterday, he had thoroughly investigated Xu Yuan and knew he was just a talented orphan; there was no need to worry about anyone seeking revenge.
"Hammer him!"
Just then, God King Tang San's voice rang out.
Xu Yuan smiled slightly. "Naturally."
Before Xu Yuan's voice could fade, his figure darted out like an arrow from a bow.
He didn't activate spirit power, relying purely on his Physical Body strength tempered by the Origins of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings. His fist whistled through the air, aimed straight at Dugu Bo's face.
Dugu Bo's pupils constricted.
This speed, this power—it was not something Xu Yuan should possess at his age.
Dugu Bo didn't dare to be careless and quickly retreated to dodge the attack.
"Kid, let's take this outside!"
After saying that, Dugu Bo took flight and headed toward the outside.
He was unwilling to see the treasures of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well destroyed, so he led Xu Yuan outside to fight.
At the same time, Dugu Bo felt some regret, thinking he shouldn't have turned hostile.
Watching Dugu Bo's retreating back, a soft emerald-colored halo suddenly rose behind Xu Yuan, and a pair of wide wings slowly unfurled.
With a flap of his wings, Xu Yuan's figure chased after Dugu Bo like a streak of light, his speed not at all inferior to that of the Titled Douluo.
"Oh? You can fly too?" Dugu Bo glanced back, a flash of surprise in his eyes.
He then snorted coldly, pushing his spirit power to the limit as he sped toward the outskirts of the Sunset Forest.
He wanted to find an open space to properly teach this arrogant kid a lesson.
The two chased each other, quickly rushing out of the core area of the Sunset Forest and arriving at a Barren Rock Field.
Dugu Bo suddenly stopped, and poison mist rose like a mushroom cloud, dyeing half the sky an eerie green.
Xu Yuan hovered in mid-air, his Emerald Wings flapping gently, a faint smile on his lips. "Senior Dugu's poison cultivation is indeed as legendary as they say."
"Enough talk!" Dugu Bo roared. Dozens of Jade Phosphor Serpent shadows instantly condensed within the poison mist, shooting toward Xu Yuan like a rain of arrows. "Today I'll let you know that the dignity of a Titled Douluo is not something you can provoke!"
Xu Yuan didn't dodge or evade. He slammed his wings shut, shielding his body within them.
The serpent shadows struck the wings with a crackling sound of corrosion, yet they failed to leave even a single crack
