At this moment, because he had activated his Tool Soul Avatar, Xiao Lin's physical attributes had improved drastically. The burden of the two Blazing Power on his body was actually quite minimal.

The only thing currently affecting Xiao Lin's combat strength was his soul power.

Fortunately, Xiao Lin's base soul power far exceeded that of a Soul Master of the same rank. Since he had only used the Tool Soul Avatar at the very end, he still had more than half of his soul power remaining in his body.

However, even so, Xiao Lin did not plan to immediately rush to help his teammates. In his line of sight, it looked like Tang Ni and the others were also about to win.

Three minutes ago.

While Kakumbo was locked in a duel with Xiao Lin, Snake and Asade had each found their own opponents. Originally, they had planned to coordinate their attacks and fight together. However, the taunting abilities of the Shi brothers were simply too unreasonable, forcibly splitting them apart.

In the end, it turned into Shi Mo dueling Snake, and Tang Ni dueling Asade.

Indeed, the one dueling Snake was Shi Mo alone.

This was because the elder Shi Mo wanted to use the pressure from Snake to push himself to break through to Rank 44. Originally, the elder Shi Mo was one rank higher than his brother Shi Mo, but due to the effects of the Immortal Herbs, their soul power ranks had become equal.

Even so, the elder Shi Mo was just a hair's breadth away from Rank 44, which was why he chose to duel Snake. Considering Snake's martial soul was a serpent type, he had the younger Shi Mo standing by as support to prevent him from being incapacitated by Snake's poison.

However, relying on his enhanced Black Turtle martial soul and his powerful fourth soul skill, Shi Mo's side of the battlefield was almost a total landslide victory. On the other side was the battlefield between Tang Ni and Asade.

At this point, several wounds had appeared on Tang Ni's body.

With her clothes torn in several places, her snow-white skin was visible through the gaps.

As for Asade—the short, middle-aged man—his soul power was incredibly eerie. Throughout the battle with Tang Ni, he had not suffered a single injury.

"Hehehe, I told you, little Ni, it's impossible for me to lose. I am a Soul King, while you are merely a Soul Ancestor. Furthermore, I have already seen your destiny. Next, you are going to say: 'None of your damn business!'"

Asade laughed loudly, revealing a mouth of yellow teeth as his lewd gaze swept over Tang Ni's fair, supple skin.

"None of your damn business!"

When Tang Ni uttered the exact words Asade had predicted, she couldn't help but freeze for a moment, her willow-leaf brows furrowing deeply.

As an existence who represented the providence and destiny of Soul Beasts, her fate had actually been seen through? That was impossible.

Tang Ni did not believe such a thing could happen. This ugly freak in front of her must be using some other trick. Tang Ni remained firm in her conviction, refusing to believe Asade's words despite her mounting injuries.

In reality, Asade was also feeling a sense of doubt in his heart. His martial soul was the Black Fate Butterfly, an evil martial soul specifically designed to steal the providence of others.

For a long time, he had used this Black Fate Butterfly alongside soul skills specifically meant to delude his enemies, making them believe his words implicitly so he could steal their luck. Once he successfully stole someone's providence, his own luck would grow even more flourishing.

Sometimes, when dealing with ordinary Soul Masters, he didn't even need to lift a finger; those who attacked him would simply die before him due to sheer misfortune.

Until now, only Soul Emperors and above, or exceptionally talented Soul Kings, could ignore his overflowing providence and resist being cursed by misfortune.

This was because Soul Emperors and geniuses had providence that was not weaker than his own—at the very least, their future achievements would not be inferior to his. But right now, Asade was extremely curious.

This beautiful and fierce young girl before him was only a Soul Ancestor, yet she had not collapsed due to misfortune. Moreover, even now, she still refused to believe that his providence stood above hers?

This left Asade feeling deeply perplexed.

Could it be that this girl's providence was far stronger than he had imagined? Did that mean if he absorbed her providence, he would finally have the chance to charge toward the Soul Emperor rank?

As this thought crossed Asade's mind, a flicker of excitement flashed across his lecherous face.

"Keke-ke! You're not half bad, girl. How about becoming my woman? You'll live a life of luxury, eating and drinking the best of everything!" Asade thought filthy thoughts, spewing provocations intended to agitate female Soul Masters.

However, Tang Ni didn't even grant him a proper glance; his trash talk was destined to fall on deaf ears.

"If you truly saw my destiny, you wouldn't be in this state right now," Tang Ni said with a cold sneer.

She understood perfectly well that this was a life-or-death struggle. If she were truly destined to die here, she would have already been forced to expose her soul bones and the fact that she was a transformed Soul Beast.

Whether she ended up sacrificing herself to Xiao Lin or something else, the man before her would never be able to ignore the allure of soul bones.

In other words, this shorty was completely bluffing.

He was using some unknown method to delude her in order to achieve his own unspeakable goals.

With that conviction, Tang Ni gripped her Golden Dragon Spear and charged at Asade once more. She refused to believe this midget could dodge her attacks forever while constantly inflicting wounds on her.

Between the strongest beast martial soul, the Golden Dragon, and an unknown Control System martial soul, Tang Ni did not believe for a second that she would lose.

Buffed by her four soul rings—one yellow, two purple, and one black—Tang Ni's speed was not inferior to an Agility Attack System Soul Master of the same rank. In less than a second, she was in front of Asade, thrusting her spear forward.

Her immense strength caused the spear tip to pierce the air, creating a sonic boom. The strike was so fast that the golden dragon head on the Golden Dragon Spear seemed to spit out a ball of fire.

The spear tip was burning.

It was a phenomenon similar to Xiao Lin's third soul skill—extreme speed and power causing friction with the air, resulting in combustion. Of course, this also had much to do with Tang Ni's original body possessing the Ultimate Fire attribute.

"Useless, useless!"

"I told you, you can't hit me!" Asade mocked incessantly.

With a light flutter of his wings, he skillfully evaded Tang Ni's attack, the spear tip whistling past his ear. Even though he started his dodge late, he consistently managed to avoid Tang Ni's strikes with perfect timing.

This left Tang Ni feeling momentarily confused.

However, in the next instant, the corners of Tang Ni's mouth curled up. She swung the Golden Dragon Spear in a horizontal sweep to the right. This time, Asade leaned back sharply, dodging the attack by the skin of his teeth.

"Heh, so that's how it is. It's getting harder for you to dodge my attacks now. That proves I've seen through your destiny."

"Or should I say... you can no longer see through mine?"

Tang Ni's mood brightened.

She realized the midget wasn't actually seeing through her fate or predicting the future. Instead, he had been deluding her from the very beginning. He used words to deceive her, manipulating her into attacking according to a script he had pre-written.

Naturally, that had put Tang Ni at a disadvantage.

What Asade didn't know, however, was: First, Tang Ni didn't believe a single word of his deception. Second, Tang Ni was the type to grow stronger and more courageous as the battle progressed.

Initially, Tang Ni might have been influenced by Asade's delusions, allowing him to dodge with those patterns. But now, as Tang Ni sustained injuries, her physical attributes had increased significantly.

Asade could no longer keep up!

"You damn bitch!" Asade roared, his expression twisting with the shame of being exposed.

The very next second, just as Asade finished his curse, the Golden Dragon Spear plunged into his abdomen. The spear's powerful devouring ability instantly drained Asade's life force.

In moments, Asade's eyes lost their light, and he collapsed, dead.
