My Soul Skills Made Tang San Cry

In the Heaven Dou Empire, in the city of Soto...

Zhuge Lan walked out of the Martial Soul Sub-Hall, weighing the hundred gold soul coins in his hand.

Humming a cheerful tune, he sang:

"I laugh with pride~ I laugh with pride~"

Although this soul master subsidy came from the Empire's funds, the future collapse of the Martial Soul Hall led to its complete dissolution.

So, we still have to thank the Martial Soul Hall for standing up for soul masters!

Zhuge Lan was a transmigrator.

As a full-time author, he was staying up all night, adding extra chapters to thank his handsome readers for their votes. Suddenly, a pang of unease struck him, and he found himself in the world of Douluo, his body shrunk to the age of 12.

He activated the [Emotion Value System], and the newbie gift pack immediately rewarded him with level 35 soul power, god-level twin martial souls, a million-year-old external soul bone, and a million-year-old first soul ring!

Talk about extravagant!

After getting used to his abilities, he went to the Martial Soul Sub-Hall to claim the subsidy for a Soul Elder.

—The system even thoughtfully projected two soul rings for him, so he could pass the Martial Soul Sub-Hall's verification.

Now that he had money, should he eat something good first, or something even better?

As he scanned for a place to eat, two people walked towards him. They looked about his age.

The boy dressed plainly, with an unremarkable appearance, but his belt was quite flashy, embedded with twenty-four jade stones.

The girl was young and beautiful, especially her long white legs, which took up nearly half of her height.

But those pink rabbit ears...

"Rose Hotel?" The girl looked past Zhuge Lan and said to the boy beside her, "Xiao San, let's stay here."

"Whatever you say," the boy, Xiao San, nodded.

As they passed Zhuge Lan, the girl curiously made eye contact with him.

Zhuge Lan smiled.

As a fanfiction writer of Douluo, he instantly realized—this was Tang San and Xiao Wu!

Just arrived in Soto City?

Then Shrek Academy's enrollment will be in two days, huh?

Excellent.

Zhuge Lan turned around and followed them. No particular reason, just wanted to have some fun with them.

—[Emotion Value System]: Cause major characters to have emotional fluctuations due to the host's presence to gain corresponding emotion points!

Emotion points could be used for all sorts of things: levels, soul rings, soul bones, immortal herbs, external soul bones, godly inheritances...you name it.

Zhuge Lan didn't rush to provoke them.

Although his first soul ring was a million years old...

Well, it's complicated.

He entered the hotel.

Tang San and Xiao Wu were arguing with Dai Mubai, who had brought twins, over a room.

When Xiao Wu said, "Not much, now get lost," Zhuge Lan made his move.

"Are you guys done yet?" he said impatiently, "All three of you are soul masters, babbling on for so long without fighting. If you're real men, settle this with a fight! Winner gets the room!"

[Emotion Points +99]

[Emotion Points +27]

[Emotion Points +19]

Zhuge Lan's rude comment immediately drew an angry glare from Dai Mubai.

Tang San also frowned, while Xiao Wu's eyes lit up and she immediately charged at Dai Mubai, ready to fight.

Tang San sighed helplessly and held Xiao Wu back.

"Let me handle this."

"Why?" Xiao Wu grumbled, "I can do it myself! I'll beat him so bad his own mother won't recognize him!"

What a sharp tongue.

"You're a girl, talking so dirty?" Zhuge Lan teased, "Just now, you were the one who suggested staying at a couples' hotel. Tsk, tsk!"

[Emotion Points +99]

"Shut up!" Xiao Wu snapped, "You're a soul master too, aren't you? I'll beat you so bad your mom won't recognize you!"

She pushed Tang San aside and charged at Zhuge Lan.

"Hey!" Zhuge Lan raised a hand to stop her, "I don't hit women. Let the little shorty fight me instead."

[Emotion Points +106]

Tang San's face darkened. Who was he calling a shorty?

[Emotion Points +99]

Xiao Wu also looked displeased.

[Emotion Points +57]

"What do you mean?" Dai Mubai growled, "You saying I hit women? This girl's so fragile, why don't the three of you just come at me together?"

A taunt to the entire group.

That finally made Xiao Wu lose her temper.

"Enough of your big talk!" Xiao Wu shouted, "Third Brother! You handle the loudmouth, I'll rip this arrogant jerk's mouth apart!"

Ignoring Tang San and Zhuge Lan, she summoned her martial soul and charged at Dai Mubai.

Tang San's eyes grew cold as he summoned his Blue Silver Grass martial soul, revealing two yellow soul rings.

"Tang San, martial soul: Blue Silver Grass, level 29 battle soul master. Please, advise me."

Still putting on airs at a time like this.

Classic Tang San.

Zhuge Lan, confident in his victory, wasn't in a rush.

Gathering soul power in his right hand, he summoned an ancient-looking longsword martial soul, revealing a pure white soul ring.

—This million-year-old soul ring was actually platinum, but to those who didn't know better...

[Emotion Points +1]

Tang San frowned in confusion.

This guy was so arrogant, yet his first soul ring was white?

"Zhuge Lan, martial soul: Li Jing's Longsword, level 35 battle soul master. Please, advise me!"

[Emotion Points +99]

Tang San was stunned.

What?

You're level 35?

And who's Li Jing? Is he strong?

Zhuge Lan didn't care what Tang San was wondering. He raised Li Jing's Longsword, and his first soul ring lit up, activating its only soul skill—

"100% Unarmed Blade Catch!"

Whoosh—

Tang San uncontrollably slid forward, kneeling as he clasped Li Jing's Longsword in his hands.

▄█〓█(╯(●Д●)シ!

He actually caught the blade unarmed!

—Now you understand why it's called Li Jing's Longsword, right?

Tang San was bewildered.

What the heck?

How did I end up sliding forward and catching the sword like this?

This was too humiliating for someone as old-fashioned as him!

[Emotion Points +599]

[Emotion Points +699] 

[Emotion Points +799]

Tang San tried to let go of the sword or stand up.

Nope!

He couldn't move at all.

Aside from turning his head, his entire body felt disconnected, completely out of his control!

His control-type martial soul was clearly white, barely 99 years old...

How could it be this strong?!

[Emotion Points +799] 

[Emotion Points +899]

[Emotion Points +999]

Seeing the flood of emotion points, Zhuge Lan grinned.

This cunning Tang San was a perfect emotion-farming spot!

"Die!" Tang San roared.

His Blue Silver Grass martial soul appeared, its first soul ring glowing. Thick vines shot toward Zhuge Lan, attempting to entangle him.

But...

A thorny full-body armor appeared, protecting Zhuge Lan.

—Second martial soul: Thorn Armor!

As a god-level defensive martial soul, whenever Zhuge Lan was attacked, it automatically activated to protect him.

And...

Since Zhuge Lan didn't summon it voluntarily or activate any soul skills, it wasn't limited by the "twin martial souls cannot be used simultaneously" rule.

The most broken part was—

—Thorn Armor could reflect 15% of the damage!

So, with Tang San attacking at full power, he found that Zhuge Lan was completely unscathed.

Meanwhile, Tang San himself was finding it harder to breathe, as if something was wrapping around him.

Zhuge Lan stood there holding his sword, not even glancing at Tang San, instead watching Xiao Wu and Dai Mubai's fight.

Utter disdain!

Blatant disrespect!

Tang San was furious!

[Emotion Points +999]

[Emotion Points +999]

Tang San activated the full power of the Mysterious Heaven Technique, pushing beyond his limits!

Sensing something, Zhuge Lan glanced at him.

Tang San smirked inwardly, thinking he'd scared Zhuge Lan. Just as he was about to mock him, blood suddenly spurted from his mouth.

—The force entangling him had intensified, squeezing his internal organs!

After living two lifetimes, Tang San quickly realized the problem.

"Your defense can reflect damage?" Tang San observed wisely, "That's not something ordinary armor can do! It's a martial soul too, isn't it?!"

"Finally figured it out," Zhuge Lan teased. "So, are you going to keep attacking, or stay kneeling?"

One sentence, and Tang San was emotionally destroyed.
