He was standing across from an opponent who was also wearing a white mask, and to Tang Wulin's surprise, his opponent's nickname had been concealed. This was clearly an extra layer of confidentiality that had been implemented during the official compet.i.tion.

A faint smile appeared on his face. Long Yuxue couldn't say anything now as they wouldn't be able to identify one another even if they were to face each other in the compet.i.tion!

”Three, two, one, begin!”

Just as Tang Wulin was thinking about how pleased he was with the measures taken by the Star Battle Net to ensure confidentiality, the electronic voice had completed its countdown and officially announced the commencement of his first battle in the Star Battle Net Inter-federation Compet.i.tion.

As soon as the countdown concluded, four soul rings, two yellow and two purple, appeared beneath his opponent's feet. He raised his right hand and pointed up ahead, upon which a vast expanse of red light rose up into the air. One fist-sized fireball after another then appeared in mid-air before flying directly toward Tang Wulin.

A four-ring Soul Ancestor?

Tang Wulin was struck by the urge to laugh. Had his horrendous luck finally taken a turn for the better?

A series of Bluesilver Emperor vines appeared around him, and he remained standing on the spot as if he couldn't even see the oncoming fireb.a.l.l.s. Immediately thereafter, the Bluesilver Emperor vines spread rapidly toward his opponent like a series of giant pythons.

A dozen or so Bluesilver Emperor vines rose up into the air, shattering the vast expanse of fireb.a.l.l.s in the air and reducing them to specks of flames amid a string of explosions.

They then pounced toward the Soul Master in a frenzy like a series of giant tentacles.

It was quite clear that the four-ring Soul Emperor had been completely rooted to the spot. His mask made it impossible to see the expression on his face, but he was clearly becoming slightly panicked in his control over his martial soul. Fire attribute soul power surged forth as he hurriedly activated another soul ring, releasing a ma.s.sive fireball that hurtled directly toward Tang Wulin.

As a fire attribute Soul Master, he'd be at a great advantage if he were facing a normal plant system martial soul. Everyone knew that fire trumped wood, so his flames should've been able to dominate his opponent's vines.

However, Tang Wulin's Bluesilver Emperor was certainly not an ordinary martial soul; it was the emperor of the plant world, and it had constantly been affected in a subtle yet profound way by Tang Wulin's Golden Dragon King bloodline. As a result, the Bluesilver Emperor vines were beginning to resemble powerful wyrms as they sped toward his opponent.

The giant fireball was punctured by a Bluesilver Emperor vine, yet the vine wasn't even scorched in the slightest. Under the illumination of the giant fireball, the fire attribute Soul Sage could even see that the giant vine was s.h.i.+mmering like a blue crystal, and there were golden veins within the vine that resembled a skeletal structure.

What the h.e.l.l IS this thing?

The Soul Ancestor was on the verge of tears. At this cultivation rank, he naturally knew that he wouldn't be able to do particularly well in such a major compet.i.tion, but he didn't want to be eliminated during the first round!

Unfortunately, reality could be very brutal at times. His fire attribute soul skills were destroyed one after another, and he could only look on in despair as the oncoming vines constricted his body in a frenzy, then swung him into the air before slamming him viciously into the ground.

”This battle is over,” the electronic voice announced in a concise manner.

This battle had been far too easy for him. He had completely and utterly crushed his opponent, and throughout this entire battle, all he had done was take a few steps forward.

His Golden Dragon King bloodline provided him with a series of immensely powerful abilities, so he was using his martial soul less and less in battle now.

However, after using his Bluesilver Emperor vines for long-range binding during that battle, he discovered that his Bluesilver Emperor vines had undergone some changes.
