Chapter 16: Fighting Dugu Yan
"team? What kind of team? You're so young, yet you're thinking of forming a team. Go home, you're too green to catch my attention."
Dugu Yan was extremely embarrassed at this moment.
Her toes in her shoes wished they could form a three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment out of sheer awkwardness.
"I don't think you participated in the Continental Soul Master Elite Tournament over a year ago, Senior Dugu."
"But in seven years, Senior Dugu, are you truly not planning to contend with those Geniuses?"
"And being young doesn't mean my strength is weak, does it? At least, compared to you, my strength should still be barely acceptable," Pei Qing said calmly, his expression unchanged.
Tsk, tsk, tsk, as expected of the Love Continent.
She's already angry out of shame.
Is it necessary?
"You mean you're stronger than me? Little ghost, it seems you need someone to teach you how to respect the strong."
Dugu Yan's face darkened, and she looked at Pei Qing with cold eyes.
"Yan Yan has a bad temper, and what you said is too much."
"You should apologize quickly, and I'll help you plead with Yan Yan."
Ye Lingling looked worriedly at the boastful Pei Qing.
She knew very well how strong Dugu Yan was; having already reached Rank 30, she could become a Soul Elder as soon as she obtained a Soul Ring.
And this good-looking child in front of her was at most ten years old; how could he be Yan Yan's opponent?
"If you apologize now, I can still forgive you; otherwise, you will see what it means to respect the strong!"
Although Dugu Yan had an impatient and fiery temper, she was quite gentle with children around ten years old. Though somewhat angered, she could still control herself.
"Apologize? There's no need. If Senior Dugu wants to test my strength, it's not impossible."
"And I'm also a bit curious about how terrifying the Jade Phosphor Serpent Venom inherited from Poison Douluo is!"
Pei Qing came to make friends with Dugu Yan and to persuade her to join his team.
Saying that her Jade Phosphor Serpent Venom was trash directly to her face was something no normal person would do.
"Alright, then I'll let you see what the Jade Phosphor Serpent Venom is truly like."
Dugu Yan was almost laughing from anger at this kid. She spoke coldly, deciding to teach him a lesson.
"Oh, why are you two suddenly fighting?"
"Really…"
"Yan Yan, just teach him a lesson, don't hurt him."
As a Nine Heart Flowering Apple martial soul owner, although Ye Lingling is silent and shy, she is still kind-hearted.
So she still pleaded with her friend Dugu Yan.
"Don't worry, Lingling. I just want to teach this stinky kid a lesson."
"It's not convenient here. If you have the courage, you can come. If you defeat me, I can join your team."
Dugu Yan snorted coldly and looked directly at Pei Qing.
"Then it seems that Senior Sister Dugu is destined to join my team. So, will Senior Sister Ye accompany Senior Sister Dugu to join my team?"
When Dugu Yan said that, the outcome was already determined.
If Pei Qing couldn't even defeat Dugu Yan, then he might as well pack up and go home to wash up and sleep.
He should stop hanging around in the Soul Master world. After consuming so many resources from Qian Renxue, taking medicinal baths until he vomited every day, and eating whale rubber until he felt sick, Pei Qing, who was level 33, could easily win even against a Soul Ancestor. and he wasn't incapable of fighting a Soul King either.
"Arrogant brat, let me see what you're capable of!"
Dugu Yan sneered and decided to take action later. She would use heavy hands to let this kid know that there are people beyond people and heavens beyond heavens. Don't think you can be arrogant in the Soul Master world just because you look good.
The three of them quickly arrived at a relatively open small forest. There weren't many people there during the day, but many were willing to sneak in.
However, this didn't matter to the three of them. Dugu Yan and Pei Qing stood opposite each other, their eyes meeting.
"Dugu Yan, Martial Soul: Jade Phosphor Serpent, Level 30, Second Ring, Soul Grandmaster. Please teach me!"
It seemed his guess was correct; Dugu Yan's Innate soul power should have been around level 7, definitely not level 8, otherwise, she wouldn't have only reached Level 30 at fourteen.
With level 7 innate soul power talent, even if she Cultivated diligently every day, she would at most be like Zhuqing.
Dugu Yan could not practice hard every day without a life-and-death crisis.
"Pei Qing, Martial Soul: Golden Crow, Level 33, Third Ring, Battle Soul Elder. Please teach me, Senior Dugu!"
Pei Qing bowed and spoke in a clear, calm tone.
Level 33!!!
It's normal for soul masters to call out their names, martial souls, and levels before a battle.
But Pei Qing calmly stated his level surprising Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling.
The two stared at Pei Qing blankly, their eyes full of disbelief.
Level 33—how old is this kid, and how terrifying is his talent?
"Senior Dugu, aren't you going to make a move? Are you perhaps preparing to surrender?!"
Pei Qing felt amused when he saw Dugu Yan's stunned expression.
"No, even if your level is higher than mine, my Jade Phosphor Serpent Martial Soul is enough to make up for the gap."
Dugu Yan said stubbornly.
Pei Qing shook his head. Jade Phosphor Serpent and Golden Crow, were these two species comparable?
The Golden Crow originated from Tang Valley, traversing the sun. How could a mere Jade Phosphor Serpent compare?
Jade Phosphor Serpent, Possession!
Golden Crow, Possession!
"First Soul Skill: Red Jaded Scale Poison!"
"Second Soul Skill: Blue Jaded Scale Poison!"
Dugu Yan opened her mouth, spewing a large amount of Red Jaded Scale Poison and Blue Jaded Scale Poison.
These two soul skills are the pride of her Dugu family. They are often invincible in paralyzing the enemy and reducing their combat ability.
Even under the corrosion of Jade Phosphor Serpent venom, it would also have a negative effect on the enemy's soul power.
Once Dugu Yan relied on her two kinds of Jade Phosphor Serpent venom to defeat a Soul Elder.
As long as she traps her opponent with her serpent venom, even if Pei Qing is a Soul Elder, she is confident she can defeat this arrogant kid!
"First Soul Skill: Golden Crow Illumination!"
The black and gold wings behind Pei Qing fluttered slightly, lifting him into the air.
Strong golden rays of light shone from Pei Qing's body.
His aura surged suddenly, and the strands of True Sun Fire hidden within him also appeared on his surface.
Pei Qing's face was calm, his golden eyes fixed on Dugu Yan below, and he chuckled before waving his hand.
Suddenly, the endless True Sun Fire transformed into a large net, covering the Jade Phosphor Serpent Venom below.
The overwhelming True Sun Fire radiated an extremely high temperature. The moment the Jade Phosphor Serpent Venom came into contact with the True Sun Fire, it instantly lost its effect and began to fade away, burning away completely!
"Do you admit defeat, Senior Dugu?"
At some point, Pei Qing respectfully placed his hands behind Dugu Yan's back, staring at her with his golden eyes and speaking calmly.
