Chapter 3361: Battling Soul Douluo
The man opposite had originally intended to hold back, but his expression gradually became ferocious…
"Hmph, since you insist on courting death, then I have no need to hold back anymore!"
To him, such a person's existence was an insult to Soul Fighting, and today he was determined to avenge those who had lost their duels!!
With that said, the first soul ring and the second soul ring at his feet lit up at the same time…
The unexpected surge of red and white light enveloped him…
Faintly visible, intricate patterns surfaced on every inch of his skin…
Though it didn't look impressive, the oppressive aura he exuded had increased several times over…
Xu Sheng narrowed his eyes, "A soul skill that enhances physical strength? These two soul skills can actually stack!"
The audience below couldn't help but exclaim in surprise…
"Hiss, the guy opposite is actually using both the first and second soul skills at the same time and has increased his strength so much, isn't that terrifying?"
"Yeah, this formidable presence, I've only seen it in Titled Douluo before, and the current power of this guy, I'm afraid, is not inferior to a Titled Douluo!"
"The power of this Soul Douluo, is nothing like the previous challengers, just standing there makes my heart tremble. I don't know if Xu Sheng can withstand him."
"Withstand? What a joke, Xu Sheng's Martial Soul is just Plant System, he can't even break through the other's defense, this time he has really hit a snag!"
Hearing the voices of the audience below, the man sneered, "With the amplification of these two soul skills, my physical strength is now enough to rival a Titled Douluo. Boy, prepare to die!"
Having said that, he fiercely kicked towards the ground below…
"Boom!"
The entire ground shook violently, and Xu Sheng's figure couldn't help but tilt…
Seizing that moment, the man burst out like a cannonball, reaching him in the blink of an eye…
His fist, as big as a sandbag, struck out without mercy…
Xu Sheng, reacting in time, immediately used the Nine-Hearted Begonia to block in front of him…
With a loud "bang," Xu Sheng was sent flying dozens of meters away by the force...
And the vines of the Nine-Hearted Begonia that had just been hit shattered in an instant…
Seeing his attack succeed, the man once again spoke with mockery, "Is this your strength? Weak, too weak, you're barely managing to withstand a single punch!"
People said Xu Sheng was strong, but in his view, he was nothing special!
Xu Sheng glanced at his slightly numb arm. Although he didn't want to admit it, the other party had indeed reached the level of a Titled Douluo in terms of strength!
Otherwise, he wouldn't have broken through his defense so easily. It seemed necessary to take things more seriously!
But to the audience, it appeared as though Xu Sheng was already at a disadvantage…
"As expected, I knew it. Xu Sheng's so relied upon defense was easily shattered, such terrifying power!"
"Hahaha, as I see it, Xu Sheng is done for. Keep in mind that the other guy hasn't even used his full strength yet!"
"With so many consecutive victories, Xu Sheng was due for a defeat. Knowing there's always someone better is not a bad thing for him!"
"That's right, he's been overly arrogant, actually trying to challenge all the strong competitors in Sea God's Island arenas!"
On the other hand, Gui Mei just sneered coldly, scornfully saying without any mercy, "Heh, what a bunch of fools. Can't they see that although Xu Sheng's defense was broken, he hasn't taken any substantial damage?"
"However, the strength of that guy over there is indeed somewhat unexpected, he must be an assault-type Soul Master if I'm not mistaken!"
And this sentence was also overheard by a maid...
She looked at the former with a slightly surprised gaze...
The next second, realizing she was being watched, Gui Mei immediately glanced sideways...
The maid suddenly felt
that all the Daijin in the imperial palace had swallowed hard, having never expected Dai Tianling to order the execution so directly over this incident!
This was unprecedented, but it also showed the Princess's status in his heart!
Immediately afterward, the ministers, coming back to their senses, began to soothe the situation with words, "Your Majesty the Emperor, calm your anger! The evil Soul Master dared to kidnap Her Royal Highness the Princess at the site of the young Soul Masters' competition, he must have had plans all along!"
"That's right, and since they captured her alive, the Princess must be unharmed. She's very likely to be used to threaten us, killing him would be pointless!"
"Your Majesty, please reconsider; killing him would only decrease our Xingluo Empire's high-end fighting power. What we should be thinking about now is locating those evil Soul Masters and rescuing the Princess."
Hearing these words, Dai Tianling took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the urge in his heart to execute the man...
He said in a deep voice, "You're right, our priority should be to find Yun'er and rescue her safely!"
His earlier self had lost his reason simply because Dai Yun'er was captured by the evil Soul Master!
Upon hearing this, the powerful individual kneeling on the ground quietly breathed a sigh of relief, thankful for his life being spared...
The ministers also patted their chests, after all, anyone's own flesh and blood got captured they'd react similarly, not to mention the daughter who was the Emperor's most beloved!
With that thought, "What are you dallying for? Hurry up and tell us the details of how Her Royal Highness the Princess was captured by the evil Soul Master!"
The man kneeling on the ground hurriedly said, "Yes, it happened like this..."
A few minutes later, Dai Tianling narrowed his eyes and said, "Are you suggesting... that Yun'er was tricked by a servant of our imperial palace and then captured by the evil Soul Master?"
The man nodded and said, "Yes, Your Majesty! I suspect that the evil Soul Master has spies placed within our imperial palace! Also, the others responsible for protecting Her Royal Highness the Princess have already pursued them!"
"But whether they can rescue her or not remains to be seen!"
Dai Tianling spoke coldly, "Effective immediately, increase the intensity of the search around the imperial palace, we must root out any spies from the Holy Spirit Cult, better to wrongly accuse than to miss one!"
"In addition, try to deploy more manpower within our borders, we must save Yun'er!"
If it's really as these ministers say, then the evil Soul Master will surely use Yun'er to blackmail him to meet some demand!
But no matter the cost, as long as she could return to his side safe and sound, that was all that mattered!
At this moment, Dai Tianling is not the respected Emperor, but a father worried for his daughter's safety!
...
On the other side, during the young Soul Masters' competition...
The news of Dai Yun'er being captured spread rapidly, reaching the ears of all Soul Masters...
"What? Her Royal Highness the Princess was kidnapped by an evil Soul Master? How could such a thing happen?"
"And right at the venue of the young Soul Masters' competition, this is a blatant challenge to our Xingluo Empire!"
"Damned evil Soul Master, the Princess must be enduring unimaginable torment in their hands!"
At the same time, the host standing on the duel platform also received orders through the earpiece...
