My Soul Skills Made Tang San Cry

The healing soul master waved her staff.

But the wound, glowing with a dark light, showed no signs of healing. Instead, it seemed to worsen.

"Huh?"

"Second soul skill: Purification!"

Holy light descended.

But all it did was stop the wound from getting worse.

The healing soul master increased her soul power output, yet the effect remained minimal.

It wasn't until she used her fourth soul skill that the wound slowly began to heal.

By that time, the seductive girl from the Frenzy Team had already lost too much blood and was starting to lose consciousness.

In her dazed state, she looked back.

To her horror, she saw only two figures still standing on the stage.

One was naturally Zhu Zhuqing.

The other was the rude middle-aged man, the Frenzy Team's leader, Kuang Xi.

Despite being a defense-type soul master, he was being cut through by Zhu Zhuqing's attacks as if made of paper.

Each swipe left a deep, bloody wound that revealed the bone underneath.

Yet none of the wounds were fatal.

This gave Kuang Xi hope for victory, prompting him to hold his ground, waiting for an opportunity to counterattack.

But from a third-person perspective, Zhu Zhuqing was clearly in control, merely toying with him.

'These two are terrifying!'

With this final thought, the seductive girl collapsed to the ground.

On the stage, Zhu Zhuqing wasn't interested in playing with an old man.

She was merely testing the "Jing You Form" by using Kuang Xi as a practice target.

Basic attributes like speed, agility, and reaction time were all significantly enhanced, far exceeding the boost from normal spirit possession.

It felt almost like having a Spirit Avatar.

But the most crucial aspects were the "Sharp" and "Decay" traits!

The "Sharp" trait allowed her claws to bypass defenses, letting attacks penetrate Kuang Xi's armor and hit his flesh directly.

The penetration rate was about 3%.

It may seem small, but this was defense ignoring damage!

And as they both leveled up, that percentage would surely increase.

By the time they reached the rank of Title Douluo, could it reach 100%?

In comparison, the "Decay" trait was slightly weaker, causing wounds to fester and making them harder to heal, even rapidly worsening.

It would require higher-level power or greater energy expenditure to remove the decay and heal the wounds.

This was a trait the Ghost Spirit Cat already had, but not as strong.

After the experiment, Zhu Zhuqing mentally asked, "Zhuge, do you want to test your form?"

"No need," Zhuge Lan replied casually. "My Jing Ming Form focuses on defense and strength, with the additional traits of Constancy and Designation."

"The Constancy trait makes all effects from my Thorns Armor's soul skills permanent, and I can fix one effect, such as a specific negative state from the Curse of Loathing."

"The Designation trait allows me to redirect reflected damage to any target within 5 meters of the attacker, rather than just reflecting it back to the attacker."

— All this information could be found in the system.

*[Emotion Points +4444]*

It sounded overwhelmingly powerful!

The most absurd part was...

Zhuge Lan had only activated the Jing Ming Form for a few seconds, yet he had already analyzed it so thoroughly?

*[Emotion Points +6666]*

No wonder she had chosen him!

Zhu Zhuqing glanced at Kuang Xi, who was now covered in wounds.

Her gaze turned icy.

With her claws, she slashed a cross across Kuang Xi's chest, cutting from his shoulders down to his waist. Blood gushed out like a volcano.

Half the battle stage was stained red.

*"Swish—"*

Zhuge Lan deactivated the spirit fusion technique and looked at the blood-soaked Kuang Xi lying on the ground.

He shook his head.

Why did you have to run your mouth?

The next moment, the roaring cheers from the audience shook the entire arena!

"Ohhhh!"

"They won!!!"

"Seven Wolves Team, awesome!!!"

"The Frenzy Team actually lost? Trash!"

"My entire fortune is gone!"

"Waahhh—"

Some cheered while others cried.

Zhuge Lan couldn't be bothered to care.

Because...

*[Emotion Points +13]*

*[Emotion Points +19]*

*[Emotion Points +14]*

The points had broken 9!

Even from random spectators, the points surpassed the usual limit?

This discovery was crucial!

'This Great Spirit Arena is practically a custom-made experience farm for my system!'

He happily harvested the emotion points.

This time, the referee didn't rush things.

— With the chaos in the arena, who would even hear an announcement?

The staff quickly stepped onto the stage, expertly maintaining order.

Preventing any desperate gamblers from doing anything that might hurt the arena's interests.

A few minutes later.

The excitement in the crowd gradually subsided.

The referee finally announced:

"The Seven Wolves Team, in their first battle with only two members, has crushed the highly promising Frenzy Team!"

"Let's look forward to seeing more miracles from them!"

"This team battle goes to the Seven Wolves Team!"

"Give them a round of applause!!!"

Most of the audience was too dejected to cheer.

Having lost most of their fortunes, how could they?

Only a small number of lucky winners screamed their lungs out.

*[Emotion Points +18]*

*[Emotion Points +13]*

*[Emotion Points +19]*

They were so excited, hopefully, they wouldn't pass out...

A middle-aged man with a red face collapsed right in front of Zhuge Lan.

And it caused a surprising—

*[Emotion Points +29]*

Huh!

Wasn't that just joy turning into tragedy?

*[Emotion Points +29]*

Another one?

*[Emotion Points +29]*

And another?

*[Emotion Points +29]*

Wait!

Zhuge Lan's thoughts began to turn.

It seemed...

He had discovered a bug!

Though it might draw negative attention and brand him as an evil spirit master.

But!

'If I head to the City of Slaughter, I could farm a lot of emotion points there.'

As he pondered.

Zhu Zhuqing tugged on Zhuge Lan's arm, and they left through the contestant tunnel.

Flender and the others were nowhere to be seen.

Zhuge Lan had expected this and headed to the betting window.

The place was bustling, everyone's faces flushed with excitement.

When they spotted Zhuge Lan, the place exploded!

"It's the Divine Couple!"

"Seven Wolves Team!"

"You're awesome!"

"I just made five times my money, this is amazing!"

*[Emotion Points +19]*

*[Emotion Points +19]*

*[Emotion Points +19]*

All the points were above the usual limit of 19, showing how thrilled they were.

But!

*[Emotion Points +2333]*

*[Emotion Points +2333]*

*[Emotion Points +2333]*

Oscar squeezed through the crowd, carrying a pile of money bags, and stood in front of Zhuge Lan.

"We hit the jackpot!" Oscar shouted. "The academy's budget is set! The cafeteria can finally add some meat, right?"

"Add it! Go all out!" Flender waved his hand. "Regular meat isn't enough, we're adding soul beast meat!"

"Woohoo!" Ma Hongjun cheered. "I'll eat till I drop."

"Boom—"

Flender kicked Ma Hongjun to the ground.

"Just because we have money doesn't mean we can waste it!" he scolded.

Everyone burst into laughter.

After the little episode.

The seven of them left the Spirit Arena, leisurely heading back to Shrek.

Flender, in his good mood, didn't even push them for training.

Instead, he tinkered with an abacus, calculating furiously.

The others weren't much different, each immersed in their own daydreams, generating emotion points nonstop.

*[Emotion Points +999]*

*[Emotion Points +555]*

*[Emotion Points +2333]*

*[Emotion Points +1111]*

Zhuge Lan grinned ear to ear.

Self-fulfilling experience packages, could anything be more satisfying?

He checked his balance.

"Hiss—"
