Zhu Zhuqing looked at the combination badge in her hand as if she was dreaming. Why did she inexplicably agree to the name of this combination just by looking at him? It was too outrageous.
But since things had come to this, she was too lazy to correct it.
"This is for you." Yang Tian took out two masks, one black and one white, from his Soul Tool, then gave the black mask to Zhu Zhuqing. Thus, the two, resembling the Black and White Impermanence, smiled at each other, and the Dou Hun Stage began!
The individual competition was just child's play for Yang Tian; he easily defeated his opponent and secured a victory.
Zhu Zhuqing, on the other hand, went up against Tang San and, without suspense, was defeated.
An agility-attack system might be able to defeat a control system, but Tang San's control was definitely not something an ordinary agility-attack system could overcome.
In the spectator stands, Yang Tian stood beside Zhu Zhuqing. On the Dou Hun Stage below, the Three-Five Combination was battling the Tie Brothers. Due to Yang Tian's presence, Tang San and Xiao Wu's strength was much greater than in the original work, so the Tie Brothers did not cause much trouble for the two of them this time.
As a burst of cheers faded, the host stepped onto the stage: "What a spectacular Dou Hun! I never expected that our Soto City would have such young Spirit Grandmasters!
Then, the next combination will be even more surprising to everyone. They are the Heaven Cat Combination!
The Heaven Cat Combination is composed of one Spirit Elder and one Spirit Grandmaster, and their opponents are the Fire-Fire Combination, seasoned veterans of the Soul Arena! Now, please welcome both teams to the stage!"
In the waiting area, Yang Tian and Zhu Zhuqing had already prepared. As the host spoke, they walked onto the Dou Hun Stage through a special passage.
"I always feel like I'm being played for a fool," Yang Tian said, feeling a bit uncomfortable as they entered the Soul Arena. Zhu Zhuqing, however, didn't feel that way and silently followed behind Yang Tian.
Seeing Yang Tian and Zhu Zhuqing enter, some spectators in the stands immediately began to discuss: "I've never heard of the Heaven Cat Combination, and it looks like the Spirit Masters in this combination aren't very old. Can they even do it!"
"Tch, they're clearly new here, family Spirit Masters who are greenhorns. Stepping onto the Dou Hun Stage means the battle begins, yet they're so casual."
"Sigh, I thought there'd be something to watch. The Fire-Fire Combination just got another easy win."
...
Yang Tian's casual demeanor made many in the audience sigh, but Tang San and the others, on the other hand, had their lips pressed together... How serious did a pervert who could directly fight a Spirit Saint need to be to deal with two Spirit Elders? If he were truly serious, people would die.
"I feel like I'm just a spectator," Zhu Zhuqing said before the battle even began.
Yang Tian pondered for a moment upon hearing her, and at this time, a mission was issued again in his mind.
"Ding! Mission issued: Help Zhu Zhuqing defeat a Spirit Elder.
Mission Reward: Two ordinary-grade theft coupons."
"I'll create an opportunity for you to fight later."
Zhu Zhuqing was slightly startled, then nodded gently. With Yang Tian's strength, if he blocked one, she could also train by dealing with one Spirit Elder herself.
However, when the opposing Fire-Fire Combination walked onto the stage, Yang Tian frowned: "They're both Level 39. No wonder they're so popular."
Zhu Zhuqing looked at Yang Tian. Level 39? She didn't have the strength to deal with a Level 39 Spirit Elder yet.
"Both sides, release your Spirits!"
Opposite, the burly man let out a low roar, and the Fire Lion possessed him! The other, thinner, shifty-looking youth also chuckled, and the Fire Snake possessed him!
Although Zhu Zhuqing felt she couldn't handle a Spirit Elder, she quickly performed her Spirit possession. In contrast, Yang Tian still looked curious and stood still, not moving.
"Oh my god, where did this fool come from? Does he not even know to release his Spirit?"
"He wasn't scared silly, was he? And he's wearing a mask!"
"If you want to die, don't drag the little girl down with you."
A wave of discussion erupted from the stands, and even the host couldn't help but remind: "Little brother, quickly release your Spirit."
At this moment, Tang San, who was also watching the battle, smiled mysteriously: "Two Spirit Masters who play with fire have met the ancestor of fire-play. They're going to get played."
Everyone was puzzled. Ma Hongjun leaned forward and asked, "Is Yang Tian very good at playing with fire?"
Tang San smiled without speaking, while Xiao Wu proudly said, "Did you forget what happened this morning?"
Ma Hongjun immediately remembered how Yang Tian had made his Spirit Ability backfire with just a single sentence, and instantly felt sorry for those two Spirit Elders. The taste of being attacked by one's own Spirit Ability... exhilaratingly painful.
On the Dou Hun Stage, the Fire Snake Spirit Master's lewd gaze fell on Zhu Zhuqing's body. Her curvaceous and exquisite figure seemed to be the kindling that ignited a flame: "Lion, this woman is mine."
The Fire Lion Spirit Master frowned but still nodded. He had long known his teammate's personality.
However, Zhu Zhuqing subtly took two steps back, a look of disgust in her eyes.
And at this moment, Yang Tian spoke: "What did you say?"
Yang Tian looked at the Fire Snake Spirit Master with a smile on his face. The Fire Snake Spirit Master chuckled lewdly upon hearing him: "I said, I will take good care of this little beauty."
Zhu Zhuqing wore a half-mask, so her full face couldn't be seen, but just by the exposed half of her exquisite cheek and her graceful figure, one could tell she was a peerless beauty.
Yang Tian listened to the Fire Snake Spirit Master's words, nodded seriously, and then asked Zhu Zhuqing: "Do you want to do it yourself?"
"I'm only Level 28." Zhu Zhuqing was originally Level 27, but after drinking half a bottle of fruit wine this morning, she broke through to Level 28 after cultivating for a while in the afternoon.
"Hmm... that's not the problem. The problem is, do you want to do it yourself? Teach him a lesson!" Yang Tian pointed at the Fire Snake Spirit Master.
"Yes!" Zhu Zhuqing was a little expectant. Since Yang Tian asked like that, he must have a way.
"Kiss me!"
Zhu Zhuqing's face instantly flushed upon hearing him, then she gave Yang Tian a chiding glare, a moment of captivating charm that almost made an old pervert like Yang Tian succumb.
"This is a Dou Hun!" Zhu Zhuqing whispered.
"Then you owe me! Get ready, here it comes!" Yang Tian's lips curved into a smile, then he raised his right hand, and a crimson flame bloomed on his fingertip. Then, Yang Tian flicked his finger, and the crimson flame entered Zhu Zhuqing's chest.
Immediately, a scorching energy surged through Zhu Zhuqing's body. It was a rich spirit power brought by that flame.
As the flame entered her body, a warm current surged, and Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but let out a soft hum. She immediately realized what was happening, her pretty face turning crimson, but at the same time, she also discovered an unusual energy within her body that could be controlled with her spirit power. This energy was incredibly dense, more than twice as powerful as her own strength.
"Don't tempt me, my willpower isn't strong!" Yang Tian playfully teased Zhu Zhuqing, then raised his hand again. A green flame, the Green Lotus Core Flame, appeared in his palm. The next moment the Green Lotus Core Flame appeared, a flame barrier emerged, directly enveloping the Spirit Elder with the Fire Lion Spirit.
The Fire Lion Spirit Elder was trapped, with no sound or spirit power escaping. However, the Fire Snake Spirit Master paid no mind and instead charged towards Zhu Zhuqing.
Zhu Zhuqing's expression turned cold at the sight. The Fire Snake Spirit Elder's gaze disgusted her.
