As soon as his voice fell, Dai Weisi activated his soul power and condensed a dark purple energy sphere in his hand.
The sphere surged with sinister energy, crackling with lightning and roaring like a storm. Within it, faint arcs of dark red lightning danced violently, emitting thunderous rumbles.
"He can actually release not just metal-based soul power, but also wind, lightning, and even evil attributes? Just how much potential does this guy have!?"
Upon seeing the energy sphere in Dai Weisi's hand, Tang Hao furrowed his brow. The sphere contained a fusion of three soul power attributes—all of which were highly destructive.
Wind for slicing, lightning for piercing, and evil energy for corrosion—this trinity of powers combined in one attack was unimaginably devastating.
"It looks like this move packs a punch. Without using my martial soul, I might not be able to withstand it. Better dodge!"
Acting without hesitation, Tang Hao's figure flickered as he quickly retreated, widening the distance between himself and Dai Weisi. However, Dai Weisi simply gestured toward Chen Mo.
"Xiao Mo, use your fourth and fifth soul skills!"
"Alright!" Chen Mo responded sweetly, a black crystal suddenly appearing in her hand. At that moment, her fourth and fifth soul rings lit up in sequence.
"Fourth Soul Skill: Sluggish!"
"Fifth Soul Skill: Severe Injury!"
Whoosh! Whoosh!
As she chanted both soul incantations, two beams of purple light shot toward Tang Hao. Caught off guard, he failed to react in time.
Tang Hao had never taken Chen Mo and Chen Xue seriously, assuming that as support-type soul masters, they posed no real threat. He never imagined that Chen Mo would directly target him with her soul skills.
He was utterly bewildered—why would a support-type soul master use her abilities on him? Was the girl an idiot?
But soon, Tang Hao realized what she had done.
"Ugh...!"
In an instant, he was overwhelmed by a searing pain. The internal injuries he had suppressed suddenly erupted, far worse than before. His bones and internal organs rubbed against each other with audible cracking.
At that moment, Tang Hao felt as if he were being torn apart in a meat grinder. Every cell in his body throbbed in agony.
Clenching his teeth, he barely managed to hold back a scream. The excruciating pain left him frozen in place as he tried to muster his soul power to suppress the worsening internal injuries.
This was the true strength of Chen Mo's abilities. Her fourth soul skill, Sluggish, reduced the enemy's attack and movement speed by 20%. But it was her fifth soul skill that truly made the difference.
Severe Injury: This skill caused the enemy's injuries to erupt instantly, magnifying both damage and pain by 25% in a single moment.
Its only flaw was that if the enemy had no prior injuries, the skill would be useless.
However, against Tang Hao—who was already wounded—it was the perfect counter. Dai Weisi had been counting on Chen Mo's abilities all along, which is why he dared to challenge Tang Hao directly.
Seeing Tang Hao's movement come to a halt, Dai Weisi smirked and said, "Well done. Now watch my self-created soul skill—Dragon Emperor Alternate Dimension!"
In a flash, he hurled the energy sphere in his hand. Like a cannonball, it shot toward Tang Hao, engulfing him completely.
Due to the energy sphere's signature purple hue, Dai Weisi had named the move Dragon Emperor Alternate Dimension.
"Ah!!"
Struck head-on, Tang Hao let out a muffled groan. The wind blades within the sphere relentlessly sliced his flesh, intensifying his agony.
Even worse, the evil soul power embedded in the attack began seeping into his body through every pore, launching an internal assault that further worsened his injuries.
"AHHH!!!"
Unable to bear the pain any longer, Tang Hao roared into the sky and unleashed the Clear Sky Hammer, releasing a thunderous strike.
Boom!
A deafening explosion rang out. Tang Hao's thunderstrike was nothing short of terrifying. Not only did it shatter Dai Weisi's Dragon Emperor Alternate Dimension, but the shockwave's soul pressure also forced Dai Weisi to stagger backward, his face draining of color.
"So this is the power of a Titled Douluo..."
Dai Weisi was in awe. Although he now had the strength to match a Soul Douluo, the gap between him and a true Titled Douluo remained immense.
Even just in terms of soul power reserves, he was several times weaker than an average Titled Douluo—let alone a powerhouse like Tang Hao.
"Heh... Lord Clear Sky, since you've already used your martial soul, I suppose this duel is mine to claim."
Dai Weisi smiled triumphantly. His Dragon Emperor Alternate Dimension had aggravated Tang Hao's internal injuries and significantly reduced his combat effectiveness.
Now, even if Tang Hao realized later that the Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone was in Dai Weisi's possession and sought revenge, he'd have to weigh his injuries carefully before acting.
It was true Dai Weisi wanted to win over the Clear Sky Clan, but that didn't include Tang San and his father. Besides, Tang Hao had already been expelled from the clan and was no longer one of them.
As for Tang San, Dai Weisi saw him as nothing more than a hypocritical bastard. Within the Clear Sky Clan, aside from Tang Xiao and Tang Yuehua, no one really wanted that father and son duo to return.
Turning to the side, Dai Weisi glanced at the incense burner—just as expected, the incense had burned out. With a confident smile, he declared, "Senior, as you can see, the incense is finished. There's no doubt—I've won."
"Hmph. This time... consider yourself lucky. But if I ever see you bullying Xiao San again, it won't end so easily..."
With that cold warning, Tang Hao turned and leapt away without looking back. He needed to find a place quickly to suppress his worsening injuries. The pain tearing through his internal organs was already unbearable.
Watching Tang Hao's retreating figure, Dai Weisi sneered to himself and thought: Your injuries have already reached a critical point. Next time we meet... who wins and who loses is far from certain.
"Your Highness!"
As Tang Hao disappeared, Li Hu and the others hurried over, concern etched on every face.
"Your Highness, are you alright?"
"I'm fine. Not dead yet. My hand hurts a bit, but it's nothing serious," Dai Weisi replied, flexing his right hand. He had to admit—Tang Hao's grip was monstrous, nearly crushing his bones.
"To think you could drive back the legendary Clear Sky Douluo... Your Highness, you are truly heroic! If you become emperor one day, it will be a blessing for our Star Luo Empire!"
Li Hu praised him without reservation, eyes filled with admiration. This wasn't just flattery—he genuinely revered the Crown Prince and believed he had chosen the right lord to serve.
"Hehe, barely managed. If Tang Hao had used his martial soul and soul skills from the start, I probably wouldn't have lasted even a minute against him."
Lin Qiuyang smiled and said, "Your Highness, there's no need for such humility. Even without using his martial soul, Clear Sky Douluo possesses Soul Douluo-level combat strength. The fact that you were able to drive him back proves your strength."
"Alright, alright, stop buttering me up. It's getting late. Let's head back."
