Douluo: The Body is Supreme

Xiao Wu looked at Yang Xiong with a bit of anger. "You little Xiongzi, you actually made Xiao Bai so angry she ran off. I think your upcoming assessment will be very difficult."

Yang Xiong said helplessly, "I was just telling the truth. Just because I absorbed two 100,000-Year Soul Rings, does that mean she can make the assessment harder for me? Just because I absorbed two 100,000-Year Soul Rings, will the Sea God reject me?"

Xiao Wu said, "Isn't that because you casually hunted 100,000-year soul beasts? 100,000-year soul beasts have the intelligence of normal people. Don't you think that's cruel?"

Yang Xiong shook his head. "Xiao Wu, you are a 100,000-year soul beast that has taken human form. Perhaps in your eyes, soul beasts are closer to you, but in my eyes, I must constantly become stronger, and soul rings are unavoidable."

Xiao Wu quickly said, "So you still lack two soul rings, and you'll need to hunt 100,000-year soul beasts in the future?"

Yang Xiong nodded. "This is the rule of the Soul Master world. Even the Gods can't change it, let alone mortals like us."

Xiao Wu seemed a bit choked up. "You little Xiongzi, I thought you were a good person. I didn't expect you still want to hunt 100,000-year soul beasts. I misjudged you."

Yang Xiong said helplessly, "Little rabbit, I've saved you several times. Is this how you treat your savior?"

Seeing Xiao Wu so angry, Tang San, who had been silent all along, quickly spoke up to comfort her. "Xiao Wu, don't be so angry. I will definitely work hard to become stronger and protect you with all my might."

Yang Xiong looked at Tang San and Xiao Wu like this and couldn't help but shake his head. The rules of this world are like this. Can ordinary people change them with their own strength?

Tang San looked at Yang Xiong. "Yang Xiong, I thank you for helping Xiao Wu many times, but I hope you apologize to Xiao Wu. After all, 100,000-year soul beasts are considered her kind."

Yang Xiong said, "Tang San, your Clear Sky Hammer hasn't started absorbing soul rings yet. In the future, will your Clear Sky Hammer only absorb ordinary ten-thousand-year soul rings, and not plan to absorb 100,000-year soul rings?"

Tang San was speechless for a moment when he heard this. He planned to cultivate his Blue Silver Grass to nine rings before adding soul rings to his Clear Sky Hammer. At that time, he would definitely pursue soul beasts with higher years and greater power. 100,000-year soul rings were also one of his pursuits, even his biggest goal.

Tang San was silent for a while before speaking. "I won't casually hunt 100,000-year soul beasts, but those more evil soul beasts can still be killed."

Yang Xiong was amused in his heart. "This is something I don't quite understand. What is an evil 100,000-year soul beast?"

"I have no interest in you and Xiao Wu being together, and I don't want to disturb you, but I think any soul beast that grows to the 100,000-year level, unless it's a plant soul beast, must have hunted a large number of soul beasts to reach the 100,000-year level. Even the Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Blue Bull Python should be no exception. I don't think the Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Blue Bull Python are vegetarians."

"If that's the case, what soul beast in this world is kind? How can I distinguish between kind 100,000-year soul beasts and evil 100,000-year soul beasts?"

Tang San thought for a moment before speaking. "Some soul beasts just grow normally, while others not only survive but also wantonly destroy the Soul Beast Forest, and in addition to normal growth, they also hunt a large number of other soul beasts. These are the evil soul beasts in my eyes."

Yang Xiong nodded. "Perhaps you can distinguish them this way, but I think this is a bit unreasonable."

"I heard you encountered the Deep Sea Demon Whale King at sea. In your eyes, is the Deep Sea Demon Whale King an evil soul beast?"

A hint of indignation appeared in Tang San's eyes. "The Deep Sea Demon Whale King is of course an evil soul beast. It occupies the Demon Whale Sea Area, and a large number of soul beasts in the entire Demon Whale Sea Area have basically been swallowed by it. It even killed passing ships and Soul Masters, which is simply outrageous."

Yang Xiong smiled. "You can't say that. As far as I know, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King is very lazy and has always lived independently in the Demon Whale Sea Area, only opening its huge mouth underwater waiting for food to come to it."

"Moreover, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King never leaves the Demon Whale Sea Area, nor does it actively attack other soul beasts in other sea areas, let alone attack ordinary people from a distance. It only treats ordinary people who intrude into its sea area as enemies. This is the possessiveness of any soul beast towards its territory and its attack on intruders."

"Based on the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's living habits, from any perspective, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King should be considered a kind soul beast. After all, it never actively leaves its territory to attack others. I wonder if I'm right."

Tang San was speechless for a moment when he heard Yang Xiong's words. At that time, he had also mistakenly entered the Demon Whale Sea Area under the guidance of pirates, and even went directly in front of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.

For any powerful soul beast, if humans are jumping around in front of it, it's like a provocation. It would be strange if it didn't kill them.

Yang Xiong looked at Xiao Wu beside him. "Little rabbit, if humans run around in front of the Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Blue Bull Python, do you think they will kill these humans?"

Xiao Wu's face darkened when she heard this. She had lived in the Star Dou Great Forest for so many years, and the number of ordinary Soul Masters killed by the Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Blue Bull Python was probably not small, let alone killing ordinary soul beasts.

Tang San was thoughtful at this moment. "Yang Xiong, in your eyes, there is no distinction between good and bad soul beasts? To become stronger, you don't care about killing any soul beast?"

Yang Xiong shook his head. "I don't need too many soul rings, and I won't actively kill 100,000-year soul beasts, but humans and the soul beast race are ultimately opposed. Humans kill soul beasts to obtain soul rings, and soul beasts eat humans. This is something neither you nor I can change."

"Furthermore, with so many of us now, whether it's Yu Tianheng or Dai Mubai, their potential is outstanding. They will definitely be able to break through to the Titled Douluo level in the future."

"When they reach the Titled Douluo level, how will they choose their ninth Soul Ring? Will they want to hunt a 100,000-Year Soul Beast?"

Everyone around fell silent upon hearing Yang Xiong's words. As Soul Masters, everyone present could be said to have outstanding talent. No one didn't want to become stronger, and no one didn't hope to obtain a 100,000-Year Soul Ring and Soul Bone in the future.

Xiao Wu's expression changed. "Little Xiongzi, do you mean you still want to hunt Da Ming and Er Ming in the future?"

Yang Xiong shook his head. "That's not necessarily the case. I'm not very interested in the Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Blue Bull Python. But I remember I should have told you that Bibi Dong is still missing quite a few Soul Rings. Do you think she will lead a large force to hunt the Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Blue Bull Python in the future?"

"The conflict between humans and Soul Beasts will not stop because of you or me. Even without Bibi Dong, sooner or later other Soul Masters will want to hunt them. This is the issue of the stance between humans and Soul Beasts in this world, and it is the most fundamental rule of this world."

Xiao Wu was a little choked up upon hearing Yang Xiong's words, but also a little trembling, unsure how to retort.

Even Tang San was completely silent at this moment. He could suppress his ambition and not hunt the Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Blue Bull Python, but he couldn't stop others from hunting them, and he was even less sure if he would search for 100,000-Year Soul Beasts in the future.

Finally, Tang San gritted his teeth. "Xiao Wu, I won't let anyone hurt you, and I won't let anyone hurt your family. Believe me!"

Only then was Xiao Wu exceptionally moved. "Third Brother, I believe you. You will always be my brother."

Tang San looked at Yang Xiong and the others with a serious expression. "Everyone, Xiao Wu is the person closest to me. I hope no one will hurt Xiao Wu, and no one will hurt Xiao Wu's family."

Yang Xiong sighed. "Tang San, why are you doing this? I'm not interested in Xiao Wu, nor am I interested in the Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Blue Bull Python. Can you protect them for a while, but can you protect them for a lifetime? You know that the lifespan of Soul Beasts is far longer than that of human Soul Masters."

...

This conversation seemed to have started in an extremely strange situation and ended in an equally strange way. Even the people around were a little confused, but they also seemed to have gained some insight.

Whether it was the original Shrek Seven Devils or Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan who joined later, their relationship with Tang San was not as good as in the original story. After all, Tang San hadn't shown absolute leadership, and there was no favor of gifting Immortal Herbs. At most, they were just classmates with a relatively good relationship.

Even Ning Rongrong, who had always had the best relationship with Xiao Wu, didn't know what to say at this moment. After all, there was a racial gap between humans and Soul Beasts. No one could give up pursuing a 100,000-Year Soul Ring and Soul Bone just because of a classmate.

For the next period of time, everyone fell into a strange calm.

Everyone trained diligently and also did their best to increase their combat ability in the sea.

Although Xiao Bai was exceptionally displeased with Yang Xiong, she quickly became close with Ning Rongrong and the other girls, somewhat like little best friends.

Under Yang Xiong's arrangement, everyone had to fight in the sea every day. Even Ning Rongrong and Oscar had to follow everyone and try to cross the Ring-Shaped Sea, trying to break through Xiao Bai's blockade.

Even though everyone was seriously injured after each battle, they were all exceptionally tenacious and fought desperately.

In contrast, every time Yang Xiong went into the sea alone to fight Xiao Bai, it seemed like neither of them could do anything to the other.

In the seawater, Xiao Bai's combat power would skyrocket. The 100,000-Year Devil Soul Great White Shark was extremely fast in the sea, especially with its massive size and sharp teeth. Even Yang Xiong could easily suffer losses.

As far as Yang Xiong knew, Tang San had already reached level 70 through the reward of the first trial before Yang Xiong and the eight others came to the Ring-Shaped Sea, obtaining a God-Bestowed Soul Ring.

But even with all of Tang San's effort, he only obtained a 10,000-Year Soul Ring, which was far from a 100,000-Year Soul Ring.

And according to Bo Saixi, each Soul Master could only obtain one God-Bestowed Soul Ring, which greatly disappointed Tang San.

Especially since Yang Xiong already had two 100,000-Year Soul Rings, and both of them were at the Soul Saint level, the difference between two 100,000-Year Soul Rings was very significant.
