At this moment, Golden Crocodile Douluo's face was full of shock. As the members of the Martial Soul Hall, they always held their heads high and believed that their strength far surpassed Bibi Dong. That's why they looked down on Bibi Dong so much.
But now, hearing what Tang San said about them being inferior to Bibi Dong, they found it hard to accept. It was one thing to bully Bibi Dong if they were stronger than him, but if they were weaker than him, it would be a different matter. They couldn't bear the humiliation of being like clowns, acting arrogantly when they were inferior.
This realization made Golden Crocodile Douluo and the others feel uneasy, and their faces turned ugly. However, Golden Crocodile Douluo was different from the rest. He was the Second Elder of the Martial Soul Hall and had a deeper understanding of the situation.
While he was initially affected by Tang San's words, he quickly regained his composure. He observed the battle between Tang San and the three other Martial Soul Hall members and noticed something peculiar about Tang San's strength. Although Tang San's level wasn't particularly high, he displayed an extremely fierce combat ability.
Golden Crocodile Douluo's eyes finally focused on the Trident in Tang San's hand. He realized that the Trident was no ordinary martial soul but a divine weapon, a divine artifact. As a member of the Martial Soul Hall, he had some knowledge about divine matters, which allowed him to recognize the Trident for what it truly was.
Understanding the situation, Golden Crocodile Douluo's shock grew even stronger. He recalled that the group of Martial Soul Hall elders had mentioned that Tang San was subdued by someone called the Holy Spirit Sect Master. This indicated that the Holy Spirit Sect Master's strength might surpass his.
"Could it be that this person has some connection with Bibi Dong? No, I must report this to the High Elder once this is over. Bibi Dong must be cautious," Golden Crocodile Douluo silently resolved.
While he was lost in thought, Tang San was still locked in battle with the three Martial Soul Hall members, and he was gradually gaining the upper hand. Tang San's taunts and provocations had successfully disturbed their minds, making them impatient and vulnerable in battle. However, the situation took a sudden turn when Golden Crocodile Douluo finally decided to join the fray.
Releasing his martial soul, the Golden Crocodile King, Golden Crocodile Douluo demonstrated his overwhelming strength. His soul power level was at a formidable ninety-eight, two levels higher than the other three Martial Soul Hall members. Alongside the other three, they managed to suppress Tang San.
Golden Crocodile Douluo even contemplated ending Tang San's life right there. He had figured out that Tang San had obtained a divine inheritance, and if Tang San fully inherited that power, it could pose a great threat to the Martial Soul Hall in the future.
However, before they could make their final move, a loud, resonant voice rang out, accompanied by the appearance of a giant figure. This man wielded a massive hammer, the Haotian Hammer, and without hesitation, he swung it forcefully, smashing one of the attacks aimed at Tang San.
The man was rough and burly, a member of the Haotian Sect. He had stepped in to help Tang San, displaying the true power of their Haotian Hammer.
Golden Crocodile Douluo and the other three Martial Soul Hall members were forced back several steps, feeling a sense of dread when they saw the man's strength. The burly man then turned to Tang San with a confident smile and spoke, "Xiaosan, look closely. This is the true might of our Haotian Hammer!"
