Douluo : People are writing diaries in Douluo

"Don't worry, Dai Weisi, Zhu Zhuyun," Su Ming said coolly. "As agreed, this battle is solely between you two and Zhuqing. We won't interfere, but the necessary buffs will still be provided."

Now, it would be Zhuqing's time to shine. This match would prove that she was no weakling. Meanwhile, Ghost Douluo was observing her closely, curious to see what kind of performance his disciple would deliver.

Dai Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun knew they were likely to lose, but with Su Ming setting the terms, they resolved to give it their all.

"Dai Weisi, what if Zhuqing doesn't return with us? Will the royal family really take action against the Zhu clan?" Zhu Zhuyun asked hesitantly.

Dai Weisi paused, then replied, "Don't worry. Although Zhuqing defied the family rules, Father wouldn't hold your parents responsible for it. Plus, Su Ming's power is formidable, and he's backed by Dugu Bo and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan. I'm sure my father would think twice."

"And you?" Zhu Zhuyun looked at him, her gaze searching.

Their minds connected as partners in fusion; Dai Weisi knew exactly what she meant. He responded firmly, "As long as Zhuqing doesn't challenge me for the throne or support my worthless brother, I promise I won't move against her."

He gave a bitter smile. "That said, I probably couldn't win against her now anyway."

With Dai Weisi's reassurance, Zhu Zhuyun finally felt some relief. Dai Weisi had no idea that he'd later be grateful for his response today.

After their honest exchange, the two felt a surge of compatibility, which in turn increased their martial spirit harmony. Though it wasn't a complete evolution like Zhuqing and Dai Mubai's Netherworld White Tiger, their strength and speed grew noticeably.

Su Ming watched this development with interest. The Netherworld White Tiger's aura had deepened—what happened here?

"Netherworld White Tiger Slash!" Dai Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun unleashed their strongest attack together.

"Fourth Soul Skill: Phantom Shadow!" In an instant, Zhuqing vanished from their sight.

"The audience, look! Zhuqing has vanished—it's a unique soul skill!" the announcer shouted excitedly, as the crowd marveled at her complete disappearance.

In the Thunder Academy's resting area, Dai Mubai watched intently, then turned to Tang San. "Xiao San, can you sense where Zhuqing is?"

Tang San activated his Purple Demon Eyes to examine the scene closely. To his surprise, his vision barely caught a faint glimpse of Zhuqing's afterimage. If he ever faced her, his Blue Silver Grass wouldn't be able to hold her, and even his Clear Sky Hammer would be useless.

He responded to Dai Mubai with a furrowed brow, "With my Purple Demon Eyes, I can only catch traces of her shadow. I can't lock onto her position. If only my spiritual power were stronger!"

Tang San felt frustrated. His Purple Demon Eyes had reached a level sufficient to see through most things, yet Zhuqing's stealth eluded him.

Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang, overhearing this, asked seriously, "Tang San, do you think you could win against Zhuqing if you faced her now?"

Tang San's expression grew troubled. In truth, he wasn't confident. Zhuqing's fourth soul skill was exceptionally suited to her assassin-like fighting style. Was this due to her absorbing a thousand-year spirit ring beyond her rank? Where did she find the courage?

Since reaching Soul King himself, Tang San had learned about the inherent risks of absorbing a ten-thousand-year spirit ring, which required immense mental strength to endure the residual grudges of the spirit beast. This difficulty further proved how inadequate his teacher's theory was.

"Master, I'm not sure I could win against Zhuqing, not without some rapid improvement."

Suddenly, an idea struck Tang San, and he turned to Yu Xiaogang. "Teacher, we were studying the Seven-in-One Fusion Skill yesterday, weren't we? If we use it as our opening move, we might overpower the entire Heaven Dou team."

"With everyone's strength focused on me, I could reach a high-level Soul Sage or even close to a Soul Douluo's power."

Tang San's suggestion piqued Yu Tianxin's curiosity. "Master, do you mean like the fusion technique the Canghui Academy used? But our martial spirits differ greatly from their gem spirits. Would it even work?"

Yu Tianxin's question echoed everyone's doubts. After learning that Yu Xiaogang's theories were stolen from Spirit Hall, many of them had started to question him. Could a so-called theory master really guide them in fusing their soul power?

Yu Xiaogang knew this was his chance to regain their trust.
