Chapter 631 - Analysis (1/2)

Fang'er froze the video when Tang Wulin was about to make his first move.

“Let me briefly introduce the two contestants. The man in the red uniform is Su Mu, also known as Fox King. He's an inner court student of the Monster Academy and one of the far-famed Monster Eight Kings. His martial soul is the Nine-Tailed Fox, and he has the Nine-Tailed Fox bloodline in him. He's a rank 54 soul master and the best control-type soul master in all of Monster Academy.

“The one in the green uniform is Tang Wulin. He is a delegate from the Douluo Continent and a student of the Shrek Academy. His soul power is between rank 41 and rank 43, I think. He has incredible strength, and he's an a.s.sault-type soul master.”

Naturally, she knew much about Su Mu, and she had inferred Tang Wulin's abilities from his previous matches.

“From what we know about them,” Fang'er continued, “Su Mu should be stronger than Tang Wulin. But there's another thing I think worth mentioning: Su Mu is eighteen years and eight months old, while Tang Wulin is fifteen years old.”

Hearing this, the audience in the stands went into an uproar again; one didn't need to be an expert in soul masters to know what this meant.

Although she knew her commentary would probably offend many people – who took so much pride in the Star Luo Empire that they felt superior in every way – she decided to say everything in her heart. “Yet despite his young age, Tang Wulin proved to be a worthy opponent; and I believe the boy from the faraway Douluo Continent is an even more talented soul master than Su Mu.

“Now, let's get into the details of this match. There's no doubt that Su Mu was in control at the beginning.”

The video recommenced rolling. Fang'er explained Su Mu's soul skills and their effects, making the audience understand Tang Wulin's reaction better.

Then the video froze when Tang Wulin was about to unleash his Golden Dragon Dreadclaw.

“Now Tang Wulin is going to slash at Su Mu with his claw, and that's the turning point in this match. Because of this one single slash, Su Mu lost this match. Why, you might ask, did he have to block the attack with his tails? Because he didn't expect the attack from someone who's weaker than him would render his repelling ring useless. In other words, he was too confident.”

The video was now playing in slow motion. On the screens, five dark gold beams of light shot out of Tang Wulin's Golden Dragon Dreadclaw and bit deep into Su Mu's five tails.

The audience could see clearly how the frightening beams of light cut through Su Mu's dense fur and went at least halfway into his tails. Su Mu's face twisted in agony.
