Douluo Dalu (Soul Land): Star-Breaking Sword God

Soul Land—Chapter 132: Golden Generation vs. Qingyao Phantom

Bibi Dong came back to her senses and gently placed her hand on Hu Liena's head, her eyes soft and gentle. 

"Nana, unlike Xie Yue and the others, you can just take a look at the information about the soul masters brought by the Heaven Dou Crown Prince." 

"Okay, teacher." 

Hu Liena accepted the information handed to her by Bibi Dong, lowered her eyes slightly, and quickly scanned the details. Her pupils shrank upon reading. 

"Ten thousand years of the fourth soul ring?! Teacher, I'm sorry, I lost my composure." 

Her voice grew louder with surprise, then she quickly lowered it again, worry evident in her eyes. 

"Teacher, with such an unreasonable soul ring configuration, I fear his combat power is extraordinary. If I fight him, it will be difficult to gain an advantage. Please help us strategize." 

Bibi Dong smiled."What, even someone as proud as you can be worried? You three are together, aren't you?" 

Hu Liena placed her hand on the other's hand on her head and shook it gently. 

"Teacher, this time is different. The other party is from the Heaven Dou Empire. Failure should be seen as a disgrace. Bearing the name of Spirit Hall, we cannot lose."

Bibi Dong smiled and gently pinched Hu Liena's cheek. 

"Just proceed as usual. Xie Yue is known for his sharpness and speed. Let him primarily attack that agility-type Soul Master, countering speed with speed, consuming their stamina and Soul Power."

"Yan's Flame Lord Martial Soul is strong both defensively and offensively. Let him entangle the powerful attack-type Soul Master and suppress him with his strong defense and blazing flames." 

"And Nana, you just need to find the right opportunity to deliver a fatal blow. Also, in this competition, you must not use charm or illusion on Ling Qianyao, because his mental strength far exceeds his cultivation level." 

Hu Liena looked stunned and asked anxiously, 

"Teacher, what level has his mental power reached? Will I be attacked if I try to charm him?" 

Bibi Dong nodded. 

"Of course. Ling Qianyao's mental power is close to that of a Titled Douluo. That's just my superficial observation." 

Hu Liena was silent for a moment. 

"In that case, we can only deal with the agile attack type Soul Master first, then unite to deal with Ling Qianyao." 

"Nana." 

"What's wrong, teacher?" Hu Liena looked puzzled. 

Bibi Dong said slowly, 

"Even if you lose, don't be discouraged. The glory of the Spirit Hall doesn't depend solely on victory or defeat in a competition. You can learn from the experience and discover your shortcomings when facing strong opponents, which is the most valuable." 

"Will we lose?" Hu Liena's eyes trembled slightly, then burned with determination. 

"Teacher, I won't give up easily. I will go all out." 

She is now a Level 48 Soul Ancestor. Xie Yue and Yan are older than her and have reached Level 49, and their levels are about to upgrade again. 

The opponent is only a Level 44 Soul Ancestor and a Level 42 Soul Ancestor, yet they received such an evaluation from her Teacher. Although Hu Liena knows Bibi Dong doesn't act without purpose, she still feels a little dissatisfied. 

Bibi Dong smiled and nodded. The other party's slightly puffed-up appearance at this moment made her feel especially cute. She gently brushed Hu Liena's hair. 

"It's up to you. I will allow you to use your martial soul fusion skill in advance this time." 

Hu Liena's eyes lit up, and she leaned naturally on Bibi Dong's shoulder. 

"Thank you, teacher." 

"Yeah." 

Their closeness had long become a subconscious habit. Bibi Dong truly treated her as a daughter. Her deep maternal love—something she couldn't let go of or give up—poured into Hu Liena without reservation. 

Suddenly, she took out something from her storage soul guidance device. 

"Nana, take this." 

It was a dark purple headband. Inside, a small angel pattern was embroidered—black in color, with a subtle secondary dyeing effect, like a dye after some process. There seemed to be fluctuations of soul power within it, making it difficult to destroy. 

"Thank you, teacher!" Hu Liena took off her original headband and replaced it with this dark purple one, tying her long hair neatly. 

"After all, I gave it to you." 

---

One day later, at the Spirit Hall training ground:

Hu Liena wore a form-fitting outfit that accentuated her grace. The dark purple headband fluttered gently in the breeze, and the faint angel pattern inside was visible. 

Qian Renxue's eyes flickered slightly. After learning that Bibi Dong's mental state was not quite right, her previous tense demeanor toward Bibi Dong eased somewhat. 

This allowed her to notice details she normally wouldn't. At this moment, seeing the appearance of this little fox and the new headband, she couldn't help but feel a little strange. 

"Why, I feel like I've seen this before." 

"Both parties announce their names," Bibi Dong's cold voice echoed across the training ground, breaking Qian Renxue's train of thought. 

"Ling Qianyao, 44th-level strong attack Soul Ancestor." 

"Zhu Zhuqing, 42nd-level agile attack Soul Ancestor." 

Across the way, Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and Yan stood side by side. Hu Liena smiled and said crisply, 

"Hu Liena, 48th-level control type Soul Ancestor." 

"Xie Yue, 49th-level strong attack and agile attack type Soul Ancestor." 

Yan responded loudly, 

"Yan, 49th-level strong attack type Soul Ancestor." 

Their respective martial souls were summoned. In an instant, light shone brightly on the training ground, and soul power surged. 

Bibi Dong glanced at both sides and said softly, 

"Let's begin." 

As soon as she finished speaking, a purple light flashed in Hu Liena's eyes, and she launched a charm attack on Zhu Zhuqing. 

Meanwhile, Xie Yue quickly approached Zhu Zhuqing. Yan's flames boiled around him as his Flame Lord Martial Soul roared deafeningly. 

"First Spirit Skill — Hell Lava Rush!" 

He pounded the ground with both fists, and a series of hot flame spikes accompanied by magma erupted from the ground, spreading wildly toward Ling Qianyao and Zhu Zhuqing. 

At the same time, Xie Yue turned sharply, heavily stepping on the ground, and charged toward Ling Qianyao. 

"Third Soul Skill — Demon Fox Transformation." 

A fox tail suddenly appeared behind Hu Liena, and her overall charm increased, along with her speed and strength. 

The yellow soul ring on her body shone, and she released the Fox Fire Order, conjuring a flame capable of corroding spiritual power. 

The three of them formed a triangle, faintly surrounding Ling Qianyao and Zhu Zhuqing in the middle. 

As expected of geniuses who can be called the Golden Generation, their aura and strength are all extraordinary.

Ling Qianyao nodded silently, and the second soul ring lit up. 

"Second Spirit Skill — Four Symbols Constellation Transformation." 

The shadow of the Azure Dragon rose behind him, and the roar of a dragon echoed across the training ground. It swooped down toward him and Zhu Zhuqing. The pure power of purification dispelled Hu Liena's charm skill, and the surging flames dimmed under this power of purification. 

Seeing this, Hu Liena and the others felt a bit frustrated. 

As they advanced, a starry sky rapidly spread across most of the training ground, like a dreamy galaxy centered on Ling Qianyao, shielding him and Zhu Zhuqing. 

Xie Yue paused as he rushed forward, noticing that Zhu Zhuqing—whom he had been targeting—had already disappeared.
