Chapter 331: Level 82 Yang Wudi vs Level 92 Snake Spear Douluo
Su Yuntao's body felt as if the meridians of his body had been unblocked.
Soon, one hour later, the second round began again.
The Six Great Elders from Spirit Hall remained an impressive presence, easily defeating their opponents!
Sword Douluo also performed exceptionally well, even without using his martial soul. He defeated his opponent solely with his Seven Killing Sword intent, securing his victory in the second round.
Afterward, the Title Douluos continued to advance.
Feng Xiaotian also performed amazingly well. This kid might be the only one in the younger generation who could be compared to the Golden Generation of Spirit Hall.
After seeing the second round of matches, Ye Wen had started to consider which remaining candidates should be assigned the first-level god position in the Beast God realm. Several candidates were starting to stand out.
Sword Douluo, Golden Crocodile Douluo, and Light Feather Douluo all had the potential to become first-level gods, but further observation would still be required.
After the second round ended, nearly fifty more people were eliminated.
The number of participants in the third round had decreased to 160, with Su Yuntao eliminated in the second round.
Although Su Yuntao's combat awareness and abilities were commendable, here, most of the participants were either geniuses or powerful Soul Douluos and Soul Sages.
It was difficult to win any further.
However, Ye Wen was looking forward to Su Yuntao's performance in the subsequent trials.
The remaining 160 participants were all elites. Except for the Title Douluos, most were Soul Douluos, with a few Soul Sages. There were no Soul Emperors left, and everyone below Soul Sage had been defeated.
This was normal, as the major distinction in soul master levels is the Soul Sage rank, due to the martial soul manifestation. The gap between Soul Sages and lower levels is hard to bridge.
By now, Ye Wen already knew which individuals should be assigned to the Fourth Beast God Trial and which to the Fifth.
After the third round, the number of remaining participants dropped to eighty. The younger generation had almost all been eliminated.
However, Huliena, Yan, Xie Yue, and Feng Xiaotian were still holding strong, with the remaining competitors mostly being older, more experienced individuals. These were all familiar faces.
The Six Great Elders, four Title Douluo-level Spirit Hall Elders—Sword Douluo, Bone Douluo, Du Gubo, Huyan Zhen, Tuoba Xi, Feng Bailong, the Fire Leopard Sect Leader, the Rock Goat Sect Leader, Yang Wudi, Niu Gao, Bai He, and other prominent figures in the Soul Master world—all had reputations, status, and power in the Soul Master community.
As the fourth round began, an exciting match finally emerged.
Yang Wudi was going up against Snake Spear Douluo!
"Heh, Yang Wudi, Snake Spear Douluo, these two are really destined to face each other! It's going to be interesting," Ye Wen smiled.
"Hmph! Yang Wudi! Didn't expect to meet me here. Your luck is really bad! In the fourth round, you're up against me, Snake Spear Douluo. Looks like you'll be stopping at the top 80," Snake Spear Douluo said with excitement. He had long wanted to teach Yang Wudi a lesson.
When they first entered, there had been a conflict between the two, but because of Ye Wen's intervention, they hadn't truly fought. Now, Snake Spear Douluo's chance had arrived.
Ye Wen watched with interest as Snake Spear Douluo and Yang Wudi faced off. Looking at the self-confident Snake Spear Douluo, he shook his head helplessly and said, "Snake Spear, Snake Spear, you're going to be slapped in the face soon."
Ye Wen knew that Snake Spear Douluo would likely lose.
From his memories of his past life, Ye Wen recalled that Yang Wudi had once fought Snake Spear Douluo. That battle was Yang Wudi's battle to fame, and Snake Spear Douluo's shameful defeat.
Yang Wudi, level 82, had fought fiercely against Snake Spear Douluo, level 92, to a draw, almost evenly matched. It was almost a 55-45 situation. In that battle, Snake Spear Douluo became the laughingstock of the Title Douluos.
Many mocked him, and some even considered him the weakest among Title Douluos.
It wasn't that Snake Spear Douluo was too weak, but rather that Yang Wudi had exceptional single-combat skills.
The single-attribute family like Yang Wudi focused entirely on one attribute, such as attack, completely enhancing that attribute. This was different from the regular limit-type soul masters, as single-attribute soul masters pushed their chosen attribute to the utmost extreme.
Yang Wudi from the Break One Tribe was all about enhancing his attack power. All his abilities were focused on boosting his offensive capabilities. The stronger the opponent, the stronger his attacks became—a very pure attack-oriented soul master.
If his opponent faced him head-on, it played right into Yang Wudi's strength. But if the opponent used evasive and indirect tactics, or used special combat methods to avoid his attacks, it would be easier to defeat Yang Wudi.
Control-type soul masters were particularly effective against Yang Wudi.
However, Snake Spear Douluo, being a soul master who specialized in direct, powerful attacks, was the perfect match for Yang Wudi's fighting style.
Ye Wen wasn't wrong. If Yang Wudi stepped into the Title Douluo rank, under the same conditions, he would probably rank in the top three in the entire continent.
Now that everyone's soul power was capped at level 71, Snake Spear Douluo's advantage was gone.
Even with Snake Spear Douluo's ninth soul ring, he was no match for Yang Wudi.
"Hmph! Snake Spear Douluo, without the soul power restrictions, I might have feared you a bit. But now, I, Yang Wudi, am not afraid of you! Do you really think you can beat me when our soul powers are all capped at level 71?" Yang Wudi said arrogantly.
"Tch, you're an 82nd-level Soul Douluo. What's so arrogant about it? Come on, take the beating!" Snake Spear Douluo shouted, charging forward.
"Hmph! Bring it on!"
"Break Soul Spear!"
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Yang Wudi released his spear martial soul. Snake Spear Douluo's weapon was a spear too, but the two weapons weren't far apart, both serving a similar purpose.
"Take this!!"
The two immediately began to fight, fiercely clashing.
At first, both sides were evenly matched, but as the battle dragged on, Yang Wudi's offensive grew stronger and stronger, quickly forcing Snake Spear Douluo into a disadvantage.
"This is impossible!!" Snake Spear Douluo felt the immense pressure, shocked by Yang Wudi's strength.
"Fifth Soul Skill, Thunderclap Explosive Kill!!!"
"Second Soul Skill, Piercing!!"
Yang Wudi first amplified his penetration ability by 100%, then immediately launched his fifth soul skill to counter Snake Spear Douluo. "Fifth Soul Skill, Break!!"
At this moment, the power of Yang Wudi's Break Soul Spear was pushed to the limit.
The two forces collided head-on. With equal soul power, Yang Wudi's attack had already overpowered Snake Spear Douluo.
Boom!
"Ughhh!!"
Snake Spear Douluo screamed, and was heavily injured, blasted back by Yang Wudi's attack. The power disparity was now very clear.
"His strength has surpassed mine! He's only a Soul Douluo!"
Snake Spear Douluo finally realized the terrifying strength of Yang Wudi.
