Douluo's self has a soul beast clone

The dense barrage of lightning arrows nearly covered half the arena, encompassing all possible directions for Li Chang'an to evade, leaving him no choice but to face them head-on.

This area-of-effect soul skill was indeed powerfully destructive. Had it been anyone else of the same level, they would have been severely injured or at least suffered some physical impairment after such an attack.

But unfortunately for Yu Tianheng, he was facing Li Chang'an, who had many ways to neutralize this threat. For example, he could withstand it with his formidable soul power…

However, to avoid exposing his full strength, he decided to choose the simplest method: evasion!

Although these raindrop-like lightning arrows were dense, there were gaps between them. By moving through these gaps, he could easily evade the lightning arrows' attacks.

Li Chang'an's eyes focused, and in an instant, time seemed to slow down around him. The incoming lightning arrows also appeared to move sluggishly.

This wasn't a soul skill that slowed down time; it was merely because his own speed was exceptionally high, his agility extraordinary. This made the lightning arrows, which appeared fast to others, seem slow to him. After all, they didn't possess the true speed of lightning.

Li Chang'an moved his feet.

He strolled leisurely through this slowed-down time, navigating the gaps between the lightning arrows, perfectly demonstrating what it meant to pass through a field of flowers without a petal touching you.

Not a single one of these dense lightning arrows managed to touch his body.

“Boom boom boom boom boom!!!!”

After the round of lightning arrows exploded, most of the arena was a mess, with rubble flying everywhere.

Li Chang'an himself was unscathed, not even a hair out of place.

“He dodged it?! How is that possible?!”

Yu Tianheng was incredulous. In the past, his opponents had always chosen to defend against this wide-range attack. The few who could dodge it had done so with prior preparation and sufficient space to maneuver.

But this time, he had timed it perfectly and released the attack from a tricky angle. In theory, Li Chang'an shouldn't have been able to dodge it at all!

Before Yu Tianheng could carefully consider the reasons, Li Chang'an had already flashed in close and thrust his long sword straight at him.

This sword perfectly embodied—fast! accurate! ruthless!

There were no techniques involved, just a simple thrust. But because it was so fast, it caught Yu Tianheng completely off guard, nearly preventing him from reacting. Fortunately, years of combat experience allowed him to instinctively raise his dragon claw to grab the incoming sword.

“Crack!”

The狰狞 dragon claw covered in scales tightly gripped the sword, and a triumphant smile had just appeared on Yu Tianheng's face when a sharp pain shot through his claw!

Blood quickly oozed from the tightly clenched dragon claw…

Li Chang'an looked at Yu Tianheng as if he were an idiot. How dare he try to grab his sword blade with his bare hand? Did he think his sword was some piece of scrap metal?

With a flick of his wrist, the Jade Scale Sword vibrated. Yu Tianheng quickly released his grip, fearing he would lose a few fingers. After releasing, he saw that several deep wounds had already appeared in the palm of his dragon claw. And the blood flowing from the wounds had turned an abnormal blackish-purple!

“Poison?!”

Yu Tianheng felt his dragon claw completely lose sensation, watching his entire arm turn black at an alarming rate, and his face changed drastically. He never expected Li Chang'an's sword to be poisoned! And with such a potent poison!

As a soul master with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon soul, he possessed not only a powerful physique but also great resistance to toxins. Ordinary toxins couldn't harm him at all, and only the most potent poisons could affect him!.

Feeling the numbness spreading rapidly from his arm throughout his body, Yu Tianheng immediately circulated his soul power to suppress the poison. However, he soon discovered that it was useless. Because the poison spreading from his arm was incredibly fast.

In just a few seconds, his entire body had lost sensation. Even the circulation of soul power within his body became extremely sluggish. At this point, he no longer had the strength to fight. Even standing was a struggle.

“…I lost!”

Yu Tianheng looked at Li Chang'an, who was standing a few meters away with his sword sheathed, and spat out these three words with great reluctance. He didn't expect his opponent's sword to be poisoned, and what was even worse was how sharp and fast the poison was, almost completely incapacitating him in a short period of time.

The victory was decided.

The battle ended so quickly that even the referee teacher was stunned.

As for the audience, they began to discuss among themselves.

“No way, Senior Yu Tianheng actually lost?”

“It's one thing to lose, but to lose so quickly?”

“Where did that kid come from?”

“Seems like he's a marquis? Apparently, he has some connection to the royal family?”

“What a lucky kid. This time, it was only because his sword was poisoned that Yu Tianheng was caught off guard. He won't be so lucky next time.”

“Yeah, once he's wary, this little bit of poison is actually easy to defend against.”

Many students began to discuss. Although they were surprised that Yu Tianheng had lost, they weren't incredulous. After all, their strengths were similar, and coupled with being caught off guard, it was normal to lose.

However, they generally believed that Li Chang'an had only taken advantage of using poison. Once they knew his details, he wouldn't win so easily next time.

On the stage.

“Teacher, can you announce it now?”

Li Chang'an turned to look at the referee teacher and said.

The teacher in charge of the refereeing then came back to his senses, nodded, and then announced loudly: “The winner of this battle is Li Chang'an!”

After announcing the outcome of the battle.

Two teachers in charge of healing quickly walked onto the stage to treat Yu Tianheng. One of the teachers had five soul rings around his body and muttered a spell before an apple appeared in his hand. Clearly, this was a food-type soul master.

But at this time, Yu Tianheng's whole body was paralyzed, the poison had spread throughout his body, and his entire person had a strange blackish-purple color. He didn't even have the strength to bite the apple.

The teacher had no choice but to crush the detoxifying apple himself and squeeze the juice into his mouth.

But even so, Yu Tianheng's appearance still didn't change at all. The symptoms of poisoning were still the same. There was no sign of relief.

“What a powerful poison!” The teacher whose soul was an apple was full of surprise. The apple he fed Yu Tianheng was produced by his fifth soul skill, called Detoxifying Apple. It was specially used to detoxify.

Even poisons at the Soul Emperor and Soul Saint level could be removed by his Detoxifying Apple.

But now, facing the poison in Yu Tianheng's body, it couldn't have any effect at all. What was going on?

“What's going on?” The referee teacher walked over.

“My apple can't detoxify the poison he's suffering from.” The apple soul master shook his head and said truthfully.

“You can't even undo the poison he's suffering from.” The referee teacher was very surprised and turned his head to scan the surroundings. But he found that Li Chang'an had already left the stage.

“It seems that we can only find the classmate who poisoned him to detoxify him.” He said helplessly.

“That's the only way.” The apple soul master nodded.

Seeing many people complain that the protagonist's martial soul name is too long and fancy, the author decided to listen to the suggestion and change the protagonist's martial soul name. The words 'Snake Emperor' are removed from the Jade Scale Snake Emperor Sword, leaving only the Jade Scale Sword. The previous chapters have been revised, and the protagonist's martial soul will only be the Jade Scale Sword in the future.
