Chapter 141: Like Father, Like Son

Dugu Bo's current strength has reached level 94!

That's right, while in the carriage, that 50,000-year torso soul bone was absorbed by him.

According to Wu Qi's reasoning, the stronger his strength, the more soul bones he could obtain in the future, bringing better opportunities for Dugu Yan.

Upon careful consideration, Dugu Bo accepted his words.

Indeed, ready-made combat power is far more important than future combat power.

Being able to resist his perception, the newcomer's strength must be that of a Super Douluo.

It is not his first time facing such a powerhouse, but for an ordinary Super Douluo to want to take his life, it would not be that easy.

"Since you have come, Your Excellency, why hide and skulk? Is this old man not to your taste, or do you wish to ambush me?"

In the shadows.

Tang Hao was shocked.

On the continent, Dugu Bo is "crowned" with the label of the gatekeeper of Title Douluo.

Some even claim that his talent has been exhausted and it is absolutely impossible for him to break through level 92 in the future.

Seeing him today, Dugu Bo has actually already broken through level 94.

Tang Hao had to believe in the other party's tactic of feigning weakness.

During this period, he had already finished handling some of his affairs and had just returned to Tiandou City to visit Tang San.

He had intended to secretly protect Tang San and the others until they finished this Spirit Fighting match before leaving, but he did not expect Dugu Bo to emerge halfway.

In order not to let Tang San's background be exposed and invite unnecessary trouble, he had endured until now.

As for Wu Qi and the others, in his eyes, they were merely playing around; as an elder, he would not bother to haggle with them.

Furthermore, Wu Qi's background was very unclear to him, and to avoid bringing a fatal disaster upon his son and himself, he dared not easily make a move against him.

But Dugu Bo—even if his strength did not match the rumors, so what?

A level 94 Control System Title Douluo is no match for him.

"Dugu Bo, you are quite adept at bullying the small with your size; why don't you come and bully me instead?" Tang Hao sneered.

If one were to calculate it strictly, the other party was more than ten years older than him, barely counting as an elder.

Dugu Bo gave a cold laugh, "What, you hit the old one and the young one comes?"

"Tang Hao, do you really take this old man for a blind man?"

"Would a self-righteous young master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family easily value a commoner?"

"That little girl by Tang San's side was also prepared by you, right? Heh, what a good scheme."

Facing Tang Hao, he could not help but feel apprehensive.

This statement served as a life-saving charm, making Tang Hao not dare to easily deal a lethal blow.

Tang Hao's gaze was fierce, "So what if you guessed it? Dugu Bo, you had better keep a close eye on Dugu Yan."

Holding each other's leverage was only one aspect, but he would not easily let the other party off.

The Clear Sky Hammer martial soul immediately appeared, and yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, red—nine soul rings shone beneath his feet.

The wife turned into a ring!

Dugu Bo curled his lip, "Truly, like father, like son. Since you are unwilling to reason, then this old man will teach you what reason is!"

After speaking, the Jade Phosphorus Snake Emperor martial soul appeared behind him.

Cold snake eyes stared at Tang Hao, and immediately, a mass of green poisonous mist was sprayed from its mouth, swirling in the nearby forest.

Dugu Bo's figure hid within it, utilizing the characteristics of the poisonous mist to isolate Tang Hao's perception.

Third Soul Skill, Green Phosphorus Soul-Bewildering Array.

Tang Hao was dismissive of this, the Clear Sky Hammer dancing at high speed in his hands.

The Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique was unleashed, and the powerful air currents stirred up continuously blew away the surrounding poisonous mist.

Dugu Bo was rich in combat experience and would not easily lose his composure.

Taking advantage of the time before the battle began, he was also analyzing Tang Hao's strength.

"His aura is unstable; there must be hidden injuries in his body. It seems the battle back then left him with wounds that have yet to recover even now."

Dugu Bo had a rough judgment.

But the Clear Sky Hammer martial soul being able to become the continent's number one tool martial soul was not an empty reputation.

The peerless battle soul hammer, the towering Clear Sky Sect—these were definitely not empty words.

Perhaps the strength of the Clear Sky Hammer martial soul itself was not high, but the Self-Created Soul Skill exclusive to the Clear Sky Hammer was the truly invincible existence.

For this battle, Dugu Bo already had a countermeasure.

"Sixth Soul Skill, Green Phosphorus Serpent Emperor Poison!"

His figure took the initiative to leave the range of the poisonous mist, and the Jade Phosphorus Snake Emperor martial soul spat out ink-green venom.

Even a Spirit Douluo powerhouse would have to retreat three times over when facing such potent poison.

But Tang Hao did not retreat!

The moves of the Clear Sky Hammer were wide and open; retreat was not in their dictionary.

The power stirred up by the Clear Sky Hammer resisted most of the venom, yet a small portion still landed on Tang Hao.

Thanks to the Poison Pill Method, Dugu Bo's control over toxins had become increasingly refined.

Under his guidance, some of the hidden injuries within Tang Hao's body began to flare up, slowing down the speed of his hammer swings.

Tang Hao sensed the anomaly and dared not ignore the other party's poison arts; while forcibly suppressing his injuries, he was also seeking an opportunity to attack.

Dugu Bo, however, was not in a hurry, constantly pulling away at a distance to play to his own strengths.

This battle was destined to be earth-shattering.

……

As the two activated their Martial Soul Avatar, even in the outlying Soul Beast Town, one could still feel the volatile fluctuations of their soul power.

"My god, how could such a great battle be happening in the forest!"

The Spirit Masters within the town dared not be careless.

Those with soul hunting plans had no choice but to temporarily cancel them, waiting in the town for the battle to end before making further plans.

Those who had already entered the forest were retreating rapidly.

The group from Shrek Academy also sensed it, but they did not know the identity of the opponent fighting Dugu Bo, only guessing that he was battling a powerful Soul Beast.

Their top priority was to treat Tang San and Yu Xiaogang, and they had no heart to consider this matter for the time being.

……

Seven Treasure Academy.

Returning after more than half a year, the academy had already undergone earth-shaking changes.

The candidates for the Seven Treasure team had already been established, and many students who were behind on the news began clamoring for a team member selection tournament after joining the academy.

With more capable teachers joining, the management of Seven Treasure Academy had already taken on a brand-new look.

The Dean of the academy remained Ning Fengzhi, but he did not participate in the management of the academy, as all academy affairs were managed by the First Vice Dean.

Faced with the students' demands, the First Vice Dean ultimately stepped forward to coordinate the matter.

The main members of the Seven Treasure team certainly could not be changed.

After all, under the training of Wu Qi, the team was already as solid as a rock, and changing people at this moment would be a major taboo.

For this reason, the academy could only open up spots for substitute members.

But clearly, such a proposal could not satisfy the students' appetites, and it could not be ruled out that some were acting under the instigation of other forces, deliberately coming to cause trouble.

After all, the establishment of Seven Treasure Academy had moved the cheese of many forces, so it was normal for some to cause trouble.

In the end, Ning Fengzhi stepped forward and proposed that, provided the ages were similar, anyone who defeated a member of the Seven Treasure team could directly be promoted to a main team member.

If the age was exactly at the tournament's cutoff line, then the strength of a Soul King would be required to directly become a main team member.

This proposal seemed simple, but do not forget, without the help of an Immortal Herb, ninety-nine percent of Spirit Masters would only break through to Soul King after the age of twenty-seven or twenty-eight.

Breaking through to Soul King before the age of twenty-four was already a rare existence, requiring at least innate soul power of level eight or higher.
