Chapter 26: Your Proud Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Is Worthless

In the corner of the training ground.

Yu Tianheng looked down at Gu Feng with a cold gaze. "Kid, I'll give you one last chance. If you apologize to my uncle, Yu Xiaogang, right now, I might go easy on you."

From the very beginning, Yu Tianheng had never taken this overconfident and provocative guy seriously. After all, he was clearly a few years older than Gu Feng, and the gap in their Soul Power alone was insurmountable. Gu Feng was like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, with no ability to fight back. Yu Tianheng didn't believe for a second that this brat could pose even the slightest threat to him.

So, rather than beating Gu Feng to the point where even his own mother wouldn't recognize him, Yu Tianheng decided to take the high road, showcasing his magnanimity and perhaps leaving a good impression on Dugu Yan.

Gu Feng smiled faintly and replied calmly, "Don't even think about it. Once I, Gu Feng, say something, I never take it back."

"Good! Good! Good!" Yu Tianheng repeated three times, his anger turning into a cold laugh. The veins on his temples bulged slightly, and his eyes were filled with a chilling frost. "I hope you can still keep that tough act and smile when I'm done beating you to a pulp!"

As soon as his words fell, the battle was about to erupt!

Yu Tianheng was the first to release his Martial Soul. The phantom of a Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon slowly appeared behind him, his hands transforming into sharp dragon claws, with blue arcs of electricity crackling between his fingers. A powerful aura surged forth.

At the same time, a yellow Soul Ring slowly descended. He spoke with a sense of superiority, "Yu Tianheng, Martial Soul: Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, Level 14 Power Attack System Battle Soul Master!"

Exchanging Soul Power levels and Martial Souls was a necessary prerequisite for a duel, a rule universally acknowledged in the Soul Master World. Otherwise, if one attacked recklessly, even if they were killed, it would be considered their own fault.

Gu Feng raised one hand in a defensive stance and said calmly, "Gu Feng, Martial Soul: Bone Dragon."

Before he could finish, Yu Tianheng's expression changed drastically, and he couldn't help but exclaim, "What did you say? Your Martial Soul is the Bone Dragon?"

As the young Sect Leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family, the third-ranked sect in the world, he was all too familiar with the Martial Soul of the Bone Douluo, the guardian of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, who had always overshadowed his family.

Yu Tianheng's mind raced. To his knowledge, across the entire continent, aside from the lineage of the Bone Douluo, no one else had ever been known to possess the Bone Dragon Martial Soul. This meant that the kid he had just dismissed as an ant might very well be the Bone Douluo's own grandson!

At this thought, Yu Tianheng couldn't help but feel a bit uneasy. If he went too hard, the Bone Douluo might personally come knocking on his grandfather's door for an explanation. Given the nature of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, it was highly likely that both Chen Xin and Gu Rong would show up together. In that case, wouldn't his grandfather end up being the one getting beaten?

Just as Yu Tianheng was wrestling with his thoughts, Gu Feng spoke again, "Wait, I haven't finished. I'm a Level 14 Power Attack System Battle Soul Master."

"What!?"

Both Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan's eyes flashed with astonishment. How could Gu Feng, at his age, possibly possess Level 14 Soul Power? Unless…

The two of them simultaneously arrived at a bold speculation.

"Gu Feng has Innate Full Soul Power!"

At this realization, the anger in Yu Tianheng's eyes instantly faded, replaced by a wary vigilance as he closely watched Gu Feng's movements.

Although his talent was not as exceptional as Gu Feng's, he had his own advantage—his combat experience far surpassed that of Gu Feng.

Two years of accumulated experience was not something a greenhorn could match!

Moreover, his Martial Soul was the noble Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon!

This was the number one Beast Martial Soul in the world!

Seeing that Yu Tianheng remained motionless, Gu Feng didn't waste any words. He immediately took a step forward and unleashed his Bone Dragon Spirit.

The ferocious Bone Dragon far exceeded the intimidation brought by Yu Tianheng's Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, especially the eerie gray mist swirling behind it, which looked even more sinister.

"First Soul Skill, Thunder Dragon Claw!"

Yu Tianheng shouted loudly, charging straight at Gu Feng. The dragon claws on his hands crackled with explosive arcs of lightning.

This was Yu Tianheng's proudest technique.

He had used this Soul Skill to defeat seniors several levels higher than himself on more than one occasion.

His fighting style was simple.

Charge in and engage in close combat, intermittently using lightning to attack his opponent. After a few rounds of exchanges, even if the opponent didn't fall, they would be nearly paralyzed.

Seeing this, Gu Feng remained completely calm. He raised his Bone Claw and effortlessly blocked Yu Tianheng's claw strike.

Without a moment's pause, Gu Feng used the recoil from the blocked attack to twist his waist, channeling all his strength into his right leg, and delivered a powerful kick toward Yu Tianheng.

"Whoosh—"

The force behind this kick was terrifying, as if it could tear through the air, producing a sharp whistling sound.

Yu Tianheng felt an overwhelming force surge toward him. He had no time to react before he was sent flying backward like a kite with its string cut, uncontrollably soaring several meters away.

His feet dug deep grooves into the ground as he struggled to stabilize himself.

At this moment, Yu Tianheng's eyes were filled with fear and disbelief, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.

They were both at level 14, so why was Gu Feng's strength so much greater than his?

Could it be that his first Soul Ring came from a strength-type Soul Beast?

Yu Tianheng stared at Gu Feng, his lips trembling slightly as he muttered to himself, "It seems I can't match him in strength or close combat."

From then on, Yu Tianheng's fighting style became more cautious and methodical.

He would attack by manipulating the lightning arcs on his dragon claws, then quickly retreat to avoid being caught.

However, after several consecutive attacks, Yu Tianheng looked at Gu Feng in utter disbelief.

His lightning had not caused the slightest bit of damage to Gu Feng.

Unbeknownst to him, the reason Gu Feng remained unaffected was simply because the skeletal armor on his body absorbed part of the damage.

Gu Feng's dark eyes were calm and unperturbed as he asked, "Is this all you've got?"

"How dare you look down on me? Today, I'll show you why the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon must not be disrespected!"

Yu Tianheng panted heavily, channeling all his Soul Power for one final, desperate strike.

Gu Feng yawned and said, "Enough, it's time to end this game."

"What do you mean?" Yu Tianheng was momentarily stunned, not understanding his words.

Gu Feng's lips curled into a cold smile as he sneered, "What's the point of playing children's games?"

How dare he insult me like this?

Yu Tianheng's eyes turned red with rage, and he could no longer hold back. Raising his Thunder Dragon Claw, he charged at Gu Feng with all his might.

"First Soul Skill, Bone Dragon Undead Thorns!"

Gu Feng slightly raised his hand, and in an instant, several extremely sharp bone spikes appeared around Yu Tianheng, trapping him firmly within.

"What is this!"

Yu Tianheng attempted to break the bone spikes, but before he could even act,

the bone spikes suddenly contracted, the immense force instantly squeezing Yu Tianheng's body, causing him intense pain. Even his bones began to emit crisp cracking sounds.

"Crack!" It was the warning of a fracture.

"Ah!" Overwhelmed by the sharp pain, Yu Tianheng couldn't help but let out a scream.

A faint trace of disappointment flickered in Gu Feng's dark eyes as he murmured, "Is this all you've got? It seems I overestimated you."

With a casual wave of his hand, the bone spikes on the ground vanished instantly.

At this moment, Yu Tianheng lay collapsed on the ground, gasping for breath like a dog with a broken spine. His clothes were soaked with sweat, and he gazed at Gu Feng in the distance with a complex expression.

He, Yu Tianheng, had actually lost to a child several years younger than himself!

Gu Feng walked step by step to stand before him, looking down at him from above, and

said word by word, "Remember this: your so-called pride, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, is utterly insignificant!"
