"Whoever you are, you’ve already earned a death sentence. If I, Tang San, don’t avenge this, I swear I’m not human!"
Tang San seethed inwardly, his eyes revealing a sinister glint.
That venomous gaze startled Ning Rongrong and the others.
But rembering Tang San’s frenzied aura at the start of term and his relentless use of hidden weapons, they knew Tang San wasn’t soone to be trifled with.
Having suffered such a great loss, it wouldn’t be Tang San if he didn’t seek revenge.
Flender and Zhao Wuji exchanged glances, both feeling helpless.
Those eight spider legs were definitely no ordinary items.
Yet they had been devoured by that Evil Soul Master.
It was probably precisely those eight spider legs that had attracted that Evil Soul Master.
How were they going to explain this to Haotian Douluo and Xiao Gang?
Flender felt a headache coming on.
In the sky.
Two Erald Dragon Snakes were flying.
On their backs were Dugu Feng and Old Scorpion.
After escaping the Titan Giant Ape’s attack, the two had imdiately left the Star Dou Great Forest.
Having obtained the Eight Spider Lances, this trip had been completely successful.
Naturally, it was ti to leave.
Most importantly, Heaven Dou City was bustling with activity!
Dugu Feng didn’t want to miss it.
The Clear Sky Sect’s mountain gate wasn’t far from Heaven Dou City, located about three hundred miles to the east.
Surrounded by mountains, it was the highest peak within a thousand kiloters of Heaven Dou City.
The rest of the area was endless plains, low-lying forests, and densely populated cities.
Because it was suitable for human habitation, the Heaven Dou Empire had established its capital here.
This sole mountain range was also where Tang Chen and Qiandao Liu had their duel. Qiandao Liu lost by a narrow margin and vowed never to set foot on this peak again.
Thus, even when his son was indirectly killed by Tang Hao, Qiandao Liu hadn’t stord the Clear Sky Sect.
Now, Bibi Dong similarly hadn’t attacked the Clear Sky Sect, but after leaving the Star Dou Great Forest, Dugu Feng and Old Scorpion had received news that the Spirit Hall had sent powerful experts to Heaven Dou City.
This had put both the Heaven Dou Empire and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School on edge.
"Old Scorpion, do you think there’ll be a fight outside Heaven Dou City?" Dugu Feng asked eagerly, still exhilarated from seizing Tang San’s External Soul Bone.
Old Scorpion chuckled darkly: "That depends on whether the Clear Sky Sect has the will to fight to the death.
Back then, the Twin Stars of Clear Sky—the elder brother was steady while the younger was radical. Now the elder brother controls the Clear Sky Sect. I suspect he doesn’t have the will to fight to the death and will continue to bide his ti!"
Dugu Feng grinned: "I’d really love to see them fight, with each side losing a few Titled Douluo.
It all depends on Tang Hao now—that younger brother is furious at the mont!"
Chatting idly, the two leisurely made their way back to Heaven Dou City.
Upon returning to the estate.
Dugu Feng noticed sothing different about his clansn’s deanor—they seed to be suppressing excitent?
Could it be...
Dugu Feng imdiately went to the ancestral hall and indeed found its doors wide open.
Dugu Shuo was standing at the entrance waiting for him.
"Father, you’ve broken through to Soul Douluo!" Dugu Feng exclaid joyfully.
"Yes, I’ve broken through.
Feng’er, you’ve done well these past months—eliminating Yang Wushuang, assisting the clan’s cultivation. Your growth has exceeded all my expectations!"
Dugu Shuo praised.
Dugu Shuo was in excellent spirits too.
Even judging by the strictest standards, one couldn’t ask for more from his son.
"Feng’er, what are your plans next?" Dugu Shuo asked.
"I plan to return to the academy to train. My current strength is still too weak—I can’t afford to waste ti!"
Dugu Feng had already made up his mind.
"That’s good. Heaven Dou City has been quite lively lately, and the sa goes for Heaven Dou Royal Academy. At your age, you should spend more ti with peers—it’ll keep you energetic and help you cultivate faster.
Do you know, Feng’er? What I look forward to most now is you reaching the fifth Spirit Ring and mastering the Overlord Venom. Only then will you truly inherit the strongest legacy of the Dugu Family!"
Dugu Shuo’s face wore an expression of longing.
For Dugu Feng, this was exactly what he wanted to achieve.
Now that he possessed two External Soul Bones, his chances of success had greatly increased.
"Father, I will work hard!" Dugu Feng declared.
"By the way, Feng’er, regarding your plans for Canghui Academy—Old Snake has already taken action."
Dugu Feng’s eyes brightened, and he nodded.
How could a great family not have its own Soul Master academy? Once Old Snake secured Canghui Academy, they could relocate it directly to Heaven Dou City.
Then, by making the academy part of the family’s influence, they could continuously nurture talents.
Dugu Feng shared his thoughts with his father.
Dugu Shuo’s response was to wave his hand, signaling for him to proceed as he saw fit.
After leaving the ancestral hall, Dugu Feng returned to his room.
He removed his upper garnt, eager to familiarize himself with his newly acquired External Soul Bone.
Truthfully, his claim of needing to train was mainly due to the External Soul Bone.
The Scorpion Pincers he obtained when absorbing his second Spirit Ring had long since fully fused with his body.
But the Eight Spider Lances, freshly acquired, required stabilization—they needed to be thoroughly integrated into his physique.
Dugu Feng activated his Martial Soul Avatar.
Yellow, purple, and purple—three Spirit Rings pulsed rhythmically around his body.
His Soul Power surged actively into his back, coursing along his spine and ribs.
Under the push of Soul Power, a faint purple glow shimred across Dugu Feng’s body, brightest on his back.
Then, eight bulges protruded from the ends of his ribs.
Counting the ti he devoured energy, this was only his second ti manifesting the Eight Spider Lances.
Dugu Feng was still unaccustod to them.
A sharp pain flared in his back—but it lasted only an instant.
Once the pain faded, the Eight Spider Lances burst forth from his body.
The segnted lances braced against the ground, gradually lifting his body into the air.
Finally, he hovered a ter above the floor.
Fortunately, he wasn’t too heavy, and the ground was solid granite—otherwise, the sharpest tips of the Eight Spider Lances might have pierced through.
Slowly, he raised four of the spider legs, mimicking a spider’s gait as he turned in a circle.
Then, Dugu Feng lifted two more legs and swung them through the air twice.
The violent distortion of air produced a sound so sharp it bordered on deafening.
Their offensive power was undoubtedly stronger than that of a Weapon Soul.
The only downside was the heavy Soul Power consumption.
In just this short ti, his internal Soul Power had already dropped by twenty percent.
No—this was because the Eight Spider Lances hadn’t fully fused yet!
Once they completely rged with his skeletal system, the Eight Spider Lances would beco like eight additional arms.
Then, the Soul Power consumption would surely decrease.
Based on his experience with the Scorpion Pincers, the more proficient he beca, the less Soul Power he would expend.
For now, he would continue training with the Eight Spider Lances in the secret chamber.
In order to cultivate his External Soul Bone and Slaughter God Domain, he had constructed a sturdy training ground within the underground cavern where the Nine Heavens Centipede Soul Master hid—a space that belonged solely to him.
This made it far more convenient for him to enhance his strength.
After familiarizing himself with the Eight Spider Lances for a while, Dugu Feng retracted them, the eight spider legs slowly withdrawing back into the ribs on his back.
The Eight Spider Lances possessed greater piercing power than Scorpion Pincers, making them exceptionally suited for use in complex terrain and far more practical in actual combat.
