Still asking for votes! By the way, what if we let Ah Yin fight Tang Hao in the future...?
Chapter 74 Zhu Zhuqing's Third Soul Skill
"This is a soul ring configuration passed down through generations in our family. As for why we didn't develop the Netherworld attribute, I don't know."
Zhu Zhuqing shook her head slightly as she listened to Lu Yuan's words.
The Zhu family has been a part of the Star Luo Empire for thousands of years, and generation after generation of Soul Masters have all focused on speed; this has almost become an unspoken rule.
The ancestors of all generations had never thought of changing this, and Zhu Zhuqing naturally never thought of changing this either.
Hearing Lu Yuan's question, she belatedly began to think carefully.
The fact that the Netherworld Cat can truly embody the spirit of the Netherworld speaks volumes about the power of its Netherworld attribute. Focusing solely on increasing its speed, and ultimately neglecting the Netherworld attribute altogether, is a classic case of penny-wise and pound-foolish.
Lu Yuan even had a suspicion that the Dai family might have tampered with the Zhu family's soul ring allocation.
Otherwise, how could the Netherworld Cat and the White Tiger, both martial spirits, form a martial spirit fusion skill?
The Netherworld Cat is primarily of the Netherworld attribute, which is the Dark attribute, while the Dai family's White Tiger, as far as Lu Yuan knows, has the Light attribute.
If the Zhu family's Netherworld Cat truly prioritizes attributes over speed, then its fusion with the Dai family's Martial Soul might indeed break down as a result.
Thinking about this, Lu Yuan felt it was increasingly possible.
"Then would you be willing to focus on the Netherworld attribute and forge a path that is uniquely your own?"
The Netherworld Cat, which prioritizes speed, can't even be considered a top-tier martial soul; at most, it's one of the more powerful types of high-level martial souls.
With the Netherworld attribute as its main characteristic, Lu Yuan couldn't guarantee that Zhu Zhuqing would become very strong, but she would still be better than the accessory cat in the original work.
"To forge one's own path?"
Zhu Zhuqing fell silent for a moment after hearing Lu Yuan's words.
She didn't really care much about her own spirit rings; all she ever sought was the spirit ring ratio from her family.
Lu Yuan's words at this moment made her fall into deep thought.
She wants to liberate her family from the oppression of the Dai family, which requires great strength.
However, the development of the family's spirit rings seems to be no match for the Dai family's White Tiger at the same level.
It seems that she really needs to forge her own unique path.
"I'm willing to try. I'm willing to do anything to make myself stronger."
Zhu Zhuqing made up her mind, then looked up at Lu Yuan with a serious expression on her face.
"Well, since you've made up your mind, then it's up to you."
Lu Yuan nodded. Since Zhu Zhuqing had made her decision, there was no need for him to say anything more.
Soul beasts with the Netherworld attribute are not common in Sunset Forest, but there are still a few of them.
After searching for five whole days, Lu Yuan and his group finally found a soul beast suitable for Zhu Zhuqing.
This is a Shadow Spider that is about 1,700 years old. It has extremely powerful Netherworld attributes and impressive speed, and can be said to have both of the two attributes that are most suitable for the Netherworld Spirit Cat.
Although the Shadow Spider was quite fast, it couldn't outrun Lu Yuan. Before it could even react, Lu Yuan had already appeared in front of it.
Golden lightning, like divine punishment, struck down from the sky, leaving the Shadow Spider barely alive, and even emanating a burnt smell from its body.
As the ultimate form of lightning, it inherently possesses both terrifying temperature and destructive power. If he hadn't controlled it in time, a 1,700-year-old soul beast would have been reduced to ashes by the lightning in an instant.
"Netherworld Hundred Claws!"
As Zhu Zhuqing used her soul skill, her sharp fingernails pierced directly into the abdomen of the Shadow Spider.
As Zhu Zhuqing stirred it, the Shadow Spider trembled violently, its long legs shaking wildly, and finally it fell helplessly into her hands.
The purple spirit ring appeared before everyone as it perished.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Zhu Zhuqing finally began to absorb her third soul ring.
The 1,700-year-old spirit ring didn't contain particularly strong energy. In just half a day, Zhu Zhuqing had completely absorbed all of the spirit ring's energy.
A new path has emerged, and some changes have occurred in Zhu Zhuqing as well.
Her skin became translucent again, and her black hair became even darker and deeper, exuding an evil aura.
And her figure, although it hasn't changed much, has become somewhat alluring.
Feeling the soul skill she had acquired, Zhu Zhuqing's beautiful eyes couldn't help but reveal a hint of surprise.
"It seems the soul skill you obtained must be quite good."
The moment Zhu Zhuqing opened her eyes, Lu Yuan noticed her expression and the changes in her body, which made him curious and ask her questions.
"Zhu Qing, tell me about your soul skills!"
We're all very curious too!
Dugu Yan, somewhat curious, asked a question.
The Netherworld Cat Martial Soul is quite famous in the Soul Master world. In the past, it has always focused on speed. Now that it focuses on the Netherworld attribute, what kind of Soul Skill will it gain? How can people not be curious?
Ye Lingling blinked, a look of inquiry on her face.
"The soul skill I obtained is called Netherworld Flash, which is a special soul skill that allows me to travel through space."
"This soul skill allows me to move freely within a radius of 100 meters."
"And the consumption isn't particularly high; with my current soul power, I can even use it more than thirty times."
Lu Yuan nodded slightly. This soul skill had a high margin for error in actual combat, making it an extremely suitable soul skill for Zhu Zhuqing.
It's at least much better than that soul skill called Netherworld Slash in the original work.
"I've learned a lot, it's time to go back to the academy."
"After you return, I'll leave everything to you."
Lu Yuan was referring to Zhu Zhuqing's enrollment. Since it was all about gathering people to form a team anyway, it didn't matter who was chosen. Since Zhu Zhuqing was there, they might as well add her.
After all, it's quite a spectacle to see a woman abandon her cowardly fiancé and beat up her philandering fiancé.
"Yes, I will ask my mother to recommend me."
Ye Lingling nodded slightly and agreed without much change in her tone.
The Ye family is definitely a first-class noble family in Tiandou City. Recommending someone to enter the Tiandou Royal Academy is no problem at all, and it is even easy.
"Thank you, Sister Lingling. I will definitely work hard."
Zhu Zhuqing glanced gratefully at Ye Lingling, a hint of joy in her eyes.
Both Tian Dou Royal Academy and Xing Luo Royal Academy are academies supported by the royal family, and their environment and resources are top-notch.
She needed a good environment to become stronger as soon as possible, and the Heaven Dou Royal Academy was definitely a good place for that.
Moreover, with the Ye family's recommendation, even if the Heavenly Dou royal family discovers her identity, they are unlikely to make things too difficult for her.
"Now our team has four people. Next, we need to find other teammates, try to gather seven people, and then win the championship of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Tournament!"
Dugu Yan was very happy, as this was another step closer to assembling the entire Tian Dou team.
Chapter 75 Heaven Fighting Team
"The championship will definitely be ours. If we can't even win the championship with our strength, then we will really be letting down all the resources and hard work we have put in over the years."
Lu Yuan smiled. With his strength, he would hardly encounter any rivals in this competition.
Even the Spirit Hall's proud Golden Generation is nothing more than a slightly bigger stumbling block.
Arrogant, isn't it?
This is simply because they have the confidence!
The day after returning to Tiandou City, Zhu Zhuqing had already enrolled in school.
Ye Cixin, who has already achieved the status of Soul Saint, is unrivaled among all healing and support Soul Masters with her Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul, and can even surpass some ordinary Title Douluo in status.
With her personal recommendation, there was naturally no possibility of rejection.
The three education commissioners only glanced at it a few times before agreeing to let Zhu Zhuqing enroll.
They even selectively ignored the Netherworld Cat Martial Soul, the signature weapon of the Zhu family of the Star Luo Empire.
…………
"Lu Yuan, I'm entrusting Rongrong to you."
“Shrek Academy is going too far. They even tried to force Rongrong to stay. If it weren’t for the reputation of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family, they would definitely make them pay the price.”
"I've heard that Shrek Academy intends to deal with you, so you'd better be careful these days."
"If needed, my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is ready to help you at any time."
At the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, Lu Yuan, who had just finished meditating, saw Ning Fengzhi once again.
This time, however, it wasn't Sword Douluo who came along, but rather Bone Douluo, who was hailed as having the best defense in the world, and Ning Rongrong also came with him.
Lu Yuan had already figured out their purpose from the conversation they had just had.
The only thing he hadn't expected was that he would actually get some information about Shrek Academy from Ning Fengzhi.
Do you want to deal with yourself?
Lu Yuan revealed a cold smile; naturally, he had no fear.
Having lost their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, and even their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul, how could Shrek Academy pose a threat to him?
If they could really make it to the end like in the original story, Lu Yuan would actually take a few more glances at them.
"Uncle Ning, don't worry, I won't hesitate to ask for anything."
"As for Rongrong, let her stay."
"The All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament is about to begin, and Shrek Academy will probably participate as well."
"Since they want to force Rongrong to stay, let's do the opposite and let them see just how terrifying the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda's support really is."
Ning Fengzhi's only requirement was to get Ning Rongrong to join the Tiandou team, which was far too simple.
Even if Ning Rongrong's support abilities were decent, Lu Yuan wouldn't refuse her even if she were truly a useless person.
He was confident that he could easily win this major competition.
Besides, he had just obtained the Thunder Magnetite containing the power of the Thunder God from Ning Fengzhi not long ago, so he had to give him face no matter what.
"Then I'll leave Rongrong in your care. If this girl does anything wrong, you should take action without hesitation. Don't hold back because of me."
Ning Rongrong rolled her eyes, her little face filled with disbelief.
Is this really his father? I always feel that his father values Lu Yuan even more than he values himself.
"Father, Grandpa Gu, you don't need to worry about me."
Ning Rongrong pouted, feeling slighted.
She could persevere in the environment of Shrek Academy in Soto City, so why would she give up halfway through at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy?
Moreover, she wanted to show the Shrek team what she was made of in this competition.
A bunch of lunatics. All I did was drop out of school, and they turned me into a heinous criminal, as if I had sold myself to them.
what……
"You silly girl, how can you talk like that?"
"Alright, alright, your grandpa Gu and I will head back now. You and Lu Yuan should get along well."
Ning Fengzhi shook his head with a wry smile, exchanged a glance with Bone Douluo, and spoke with a helpless expression.
Bone Douluo didn't say much, but his gaze kept sweeping over Lu Yuan, his eyes filled with surprise and deep shock.
What incredible talent! To possess such profound soul power at such a young age.
He is truly gifted!
At this moment, Bone Douluo finally understood Sword Douluo's deep surprise.
With such talent, as long as he doesn't perish, he will surely become a renowned and unparalleled powerhouse in this world.
