242: Chapter 242 Taking on the Fire Dragon King as a Disciple?
After the Spirit Possession, that inexplicable suppression coming from a powerful Bloodline became even more apparent.
Dai Mubai's legs trembled slightly, and an unknown panic appeared in his heart; even the flow of Soul Power within his body was weakening.
The Fire Dragon King's rosy lips curled up slightly as her body suddenly sprinted forward.
Her entire being transformed into a sea of fire.
The entire arena was ignited by flames, and the scorching high temperatures made even the people around the stands feel the heat.
The Fire Dragon King arrived before him, her right fist suddenly rising and striking straight at Dai Mubai's face; the movement was simple, without any flashiness, but the fist was so fast it carried the sound of breaking air.
In the next moment, Dai Mubai's vision blurred, a burst of pain hit his face, and his body flew straight out of the Soul Dueling Arena.
"Whoa, Extreme Ice and Fire!"
The audience erupted in excitement. For these people, crushing battles were the most thrilling, allowing them to quickly project themselves into the perspective of the strong, let alone when it was a beauty-level Spirit Master like this.
As for the fallen trash, they wouldn't spare him a single glance.
"Extreme Ice and Fire, wins!"
The tuxedo-clad host immediately announced the results of the match.
The audience below cheered fervently.
"Boss Dai, Boss Dai, are you alright?"
Ma Hongjun ran to Dai Mubai's side; the latter was clutching his face, sucking in several breaths of cold air, and spitting out a mouthful of bloody water along with a large front tooth.
"Mubai, what happened? Why didn't I see you use any Spirit Abilities?"
Yu Xiaogang walked quickly to his side, his tone carrying both interrogation and confusion.
He knew the opponent was strong, but she was only a Spirit Elder, with Soul Power roughly equal to Dai Mubai's.
Yu Xiaogang had estimated that the two might fight for a long time and that Dai Mubai would gradually lose, but he never expected him to be taken down by a single punch.
"Great Master... hiss..."
As soon as Dai Mubai opened his mouth, the missing front tooth caused his voice to leak air. Combined with the swelling on half of his face, his appearance was extremely comical.
"Hahaha!"
Ma Hongjun and Oscar desperately suppressed their laughter.
Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu, however, had no such scruples and laughed out loud directly.
Dai Mubai's appearance was truly too funny.
Zhu Zhuqing also couldn't help her lips from twitching, feeling a burst of satisfaction in her heart.
Zhu Zhuqing was equally shocked by the opponent's strength.
She knew how powerful the White Tiger Martial Soul was; it shouldn't have been possible to lose so quickly against someone of the same rank.
"Shut up!"
Dai Mubai snorted coldly at the group, then looked at Zhu Zhuqing and realized she also wanted to laugh at him.
He felt like his face had grown twice its size today.
"Great Master, the quality of the opponent's Spirit exceeds my White Tiger Martial Soul. My Spirit was suppressed, and the release of my Spirit Abilities and Soul Power was delayed."
Dai Mubai's explanation caused everyone to quiet down, and then, one by one, their faces showed shock.
The White Tiger Martial Soul was a top-tier Beast Spirit. What kind of Spirit could suppress a White Tiger, even to the point of delaying Soul Power release through Bloodline suppression alone?
Yu Xiaogang couldn't help but look curiously toward the Fire Dragon King. It seemed she hadn't revealed her Spirit from beginning to end, but she was already nowhere to be seen; she had left as soon as the match ended.
"Boss Dai, you wouldn't be lying to me, would you?"
"My Phoenix Spirit is an even match for yours. If she can suppress you, wouldn't she be able to suppress me too?"
Ma Hongjun didn't quite believe it, feeling that Dai Mubai probably got distracted by the girl's pretty face and hot body, which was why he got taken down by a single punch.
"I don't have time to lie to you. Move aside."
Dai Mubai rubbed half of his swollen face and walked straight toward the registration desk of the Soul Dueling Arena.
He had to find someone else to fight and crush them ruthlessly, otherwise, today's incident would be laughed about for the rest of their lives, especially since Zhu Zhuqing was watching.
In the private box, not long after the Fire Dragon King returned, a knock sounded at the door.
Tian Yue opened the door to find a man with a crew cut and a middle-aged man standing there.
She recognized him at a glance—wasn't he some teacher from Shrek Academy?
"Hello, guests. I am a staff member of the Great Spirit Arena. This Great Master wishes to see you!"
The middle-aged man appeared quite apologetic: "He said you know each other, so I brought him over."
Tian Yue raised an eyebrow, and before she could speak, Yu Xiaogang had already begun to explain: "Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Yu Xiaogang. You might not know me, but you must have seen the Ten Core Competencies of Spirits. That's right, I wrote that book. 'Great Master' is just a title others have flattered me with!"
After Yu Xiaogang finished speaking, he put his hands behind his back and stood sideways to her, putting on an air of profound mystery.
Tian Yue was speechless; she hadn't even said anything, yet he had already spouted a whole bunch.
"Never read it, don't know it, don't recognize you!"
"Wait... you haven't read the Ten Core Competencies of Spirits? That's absolutely impossible. You might not remember the title, but you definitely know the content. These are core Spirit theories personally recognized and endorsed by Spirit Hall!"
Seeing that she was about to close the door, Yu Xiaogang suddenly became anxious.
He came here specifically to see the Fire Dragon King and learn about her Spirit.
Just now on the stage, she hadn't even released her Spirit.
He had asked the staff, and the registration info only listed a 'Fire Dragon King' Spirit with no further records.
Yu Xiaogang was extremely curious about the Fire Dragon King Spirit—what did it look like to be able to suppress Dai Mubai's Spirit?
Moreover, looking at her age, the Fire Dragon King was roughly twenty years old.
With such a powerful Spirit, to only be a Spirit Elder at this age meant she had clearly taken the wrong path.
He felt he could offer some guidance and become her teacher. With such a powerful Spirit, she definitely had the hope of becoming a Titled Douluo.
"Where is the contestant who just participated in the match?"
"I have already seen that there are some issues with her Spirit. On the path of a Spirit Master, she has taken the wrong direction. Perhaps with the guidance of an expert to change her direction, she could become even stronger."
Yu Xiaogang was very confident when he said this. With such a powerful Bloodline, her Innate Soul Power could not possibly be low.
He guessed that if she wasn't Innate Full Spirit Power, she was at least at Innate Rank Nine.
"You're looking for me?"
The Fire Dragon King walked over, her arms crossed.
Yu Xiaogang was momentarily dazed. He knew the Fire Dragon King was beautiful, but he didn't expect that seeing her up close, she actually didn't lose out to the Bibi Dong of years past.
"Hmm?"
The Fire Dragon King raised an eyebrow slightly, a hint of displeasure on her face. Yu Xiaogang realized he had lost his composure and coughed: "I presume you heard what I just said. I am a Great Master of Spirit theory. Show me your Spirit and your spirit rings. If they meet my expectations, I can consider taking you as my disciple. I believe that with my guidance, you will certainly become a Rank Ninety Titled Douluo in the future."
Fire Dragon King: "Huh?"
Tian Yue gently rubbed her ear, suspecting she had misheard.
Where did he get this confidence from?
The disdain in Tian Yue's eyes was unconcealed: "A Great Master of Spirit theory? Looking at you, you must be over fifty. A Rank Twenty-nine Breakthrough at fifty—is this 'Great Master' title something you gave yourself?"
"You... you're talking nonsense!"
Yu Xiaogang's pride was instantly shattered, and he spoke out in a fit of rage.
