Chapter 127: What are you planning?

Two minutes had passed, and Xiao Tianyang was now drenched in sweat, his hands trembling uncontrollably.

"That old poisoner is so shameless! He directly increased the pressure to level 89!"

"There's no other way... Looks like I have no choice but to use my martial soul!"

As soon as he spoke, a layer of fusion fire enveloped his body. With the aid of the Nine Suns Divine Art, the power of his unique flame gradually intensified.

Now, he shone as brilliantly as a miniature sun, his flames completely unfazed by the immense pressure.

"This kid is truly a genius!" Dugu Bo's eyes had been gleaming for the past minute.

He had initially taken a liking to Xiao Tianyang, but after witnessing his talent firsthand, his admiration grew even stronger.

"Senior Poison Douluo, Tianyang is reaching his limit. Please show mercy!"

Yu Xiaogang stepped forward, resisting the pressure as he clasped his hands respectfully.

"It's still too soon." Dugu Bo barely glanced at him before saying, "I think pure soul power pressure alone won't be enough to stop him now..."

"What are you planning?" Xiao Tianyang instantly became alert upon hearing this. He didn't even bother with honorifics as he lifted his head and asked.

The next moment, a dense green poisonous mist engulfed him.

The pungent smell assaulted his senses, making him nearly gag.

"Elder Dugu Bo!" Zhi Lin was the first to step forward, and Bai Baoshan appeared beside him.

"If you want a fight, come at us! Why are you bullying a junior?!"

Meng Shenji also rose, his voice grave. "Regardless of the circumstances, the boy was invited here. How can you justify forcing him into submission?"

"Elder Dugu Bo, you have descendants yourself. Doesn't your conscience weigh on you?"

Bai Baoshan shook his head with a laugh. "Your Highness, I truly admire your wise decision."

Prince Xue Xing: "..."

He was now in an incredibly difficult position.

Regret coursed through him like ink dripping into clear water—spreading uncontrollably.

He now realized that Bai Baoshan was right.

Expelling such an exceptional talent from Heaven Dou Imperial Academy... even pushing him to the enemy's side...

It was an unforgivable mistake.

"First Soul Skill: Myriad Transformation Fire!"

Xiao Tianyang could no longer afford to hold back—if this continued, he would be done for!

Purple, black, black!

His first soul ring shone, and the moment nine clusters of green flames emerged, they rapidly fused into his body.

"What kind of monstrous soul ring configuration is this?!" Dugu Bo, seeing this for the first time, was stunned.

"No... With this kind of soul ring setup—boy, who exactly are you?" Cold sweat formed on Dugu Bo's palm as he asked in a deep voice.

Xiao Tianyang spat out a mouthful of blood, then raised his head with a grin—one that carried a hint of ferocity.

"This junior has no reason to change his name. My surname is Xiao, and my given name is Tianyang!"

"You're... Miao Zhenshan's disciple?!" Dugu Bo immediately withdrew his strength.

At the same time, he waved his hand, pulling the green poisonous mist back into his palm.

At that moment, a familiar system notification echoed in Xiao Tianyang's mind.

Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the side mission: 'Rather Break Than Bend'!

 Reward: Random Martial Soul x1!

Congratulations to host Xiao Tianyang for obtaining the martial soul: Nine Dragon Lightning Flame!

Suddenly, Xiao Tianyang's dantian burned with searing heat. nine slender fire dragons surged out, roaring furiously, their dragon might making his head spin.

His body faltered, and he dropped to one knee, supporting himself with one hand on the ground.

He gasped for air like a fish stranded on the shore, his face gradually turning pale.

"Why does the emergence of the Nine Dragon Lightning Flame cause an even greater commotion than the Gold Emperor Incinerating Heavenly Flame?!"

A few seconds later, the roaring ceased, and the nine silver fire dragons disappeared into his fusion flames without a trace.

"Tianyang, are you alright?!" Ning Rongrong rushed forward to help him up, her voice trembling, eyes red with worry.

"I'm fine... just exhausted my soul power." Xiao Tianyang quickly waved a hand to reassure her before looking at Dugu Bo.

"Senior, may we leave now?"

"Of course." At that moment, Dugu Bo had a thousand curses in his mind but didn't know whether to say them.

'You had such a terrifying background, and you didn't say anything?!'

'Were you just trying to mess with me?!'

'No, I need to leave and hide for a while. Otherwise, if that lunatic finds out about this, I'll be doomed!'

Thinking this, he ignored Flender and the others, turned, and swiftly left.

With his biggest backer gone, Prince Xue Xing had no choice but to retreat in humiliation.

At this moment, he finally understood—He had kicked a steel plate.

Miao Zhenshan!

A wild Super Douluo who refused to join the Spirit Hall!

His greatest achievement in life was aligning himself with the Spirit Hall due to his own shortsightedness.

Now, his only concern was how to clean up this mess—not seeking revenge.

"Three seniors, I apologize." Xiao Tianyang took the initiative to speak first, offering a bitter smile.

"I simply didn't want my background to influence your judgment. I never expected things to escalate like this."

Truthfully, if he had revealed his name earlier, Dugu Bo wouldn't have dared to make a move at all.

At the level of a Title Douluo, every rank past 95 was an insurmountable divide.

Didn't even the renowned Sword Douluo—considered the strongest in attack—get sent flying with a single punch from Miao Zhenshan?

Flender and the others hadn't mentioned it before due to Xiao Tianyang's deliberate concealment and the unexpected turn of events.

Of course, if Xiao Tianyang hadn't spoken up, Yu Xiaogang would have done it for him.

And if that had happened, who wouldn't have panicked?

But now, seeing Xiao Tianyang in such a miserable state, what could the three soul douluo say?

"Ah, this must be fate." Meng Shenji sighed. "This all started because of Prince Xue Xing. It's not your fault."

"Seniors, thank you for your kindness today..." Flender stepped forward, his tone firm. "But Tianyang is gravely injured. Please allow us to leave and tend to him."

Just as Zhi Lin was about to speak, Meng Shenji stopped him. "Forget it. Let them go."

Flender nodded and led the teachers and students away.

Suddenly, Meng Shenji's gaze sharpened as he looked out the window.

"Dugu Bo, you've shot yourself in the foot today. That crown prince you protect won't let you off easily!"

Outside, Dugu Bo's body trembled slightly.

"Hmph. That's my problem. It has nothing to do with you."

Beside him, a pretty girl with sparkling eyes asked curiously, "Grandpa, who is Xiao Tianyang? Why did you stop when you heard his name?"

Dugu Bo forced a bitter smile. "Because behind him stands a Super Douluo powerful enough to enter the Spirit Hall's Worship Hall..."

 'I oppress the weak with my strength, and others can do the same.' He considers himself somewhat fortunate now; had he declared earlier that he didn't care about a mere child, the consequences might have been even worse.

Dugu Yan was equally stunned upon hearing this revelation. She never expected Xiao Tianyang to possess such an immense background.
