"Hao, I'll take the lead. You wait for the right moment."
Tang Xiao quickly assessed the situation and spoke.
Though both brothers possessed the Hao Tian Hammer martial soul, their individual aptitudes naturally led to different cultivation paths within the sect.
Although the Hao Tian Hammer was considered a super martial soul, not everyone pursued the extreme path. Only those groomed as the next sect leader would follow this route.
Tang Xiao had missed the position of heir due to his innate soul power not reaching the full potential level at birth, but he had instead taken a different path.
While hunting power-type spirit beasts, he also incorporated lightning attributes, granting him resistance against Yu Yuanzhen's lightning attacks.
A flicker of disdain passed through Yu Yuanzhen's eyes. As someone who had become the head of a soul master sect, how could he have not weathered countless storms?
Yu Yuanzhen immediately understood what these two greenhorns were thinking—they planned to rely on Tang Xiao's lightning resistance to let Tang Hao gather strength and strike a fatal blow.
"Foolish!" Yu Yuanzhen sneered.
The more advanced a soul master became, the less effective such petty tricks were.
Yu Yuanzhen bypassed Tang Xiao entirely and turned his attention to Tang Hao.
With this simple maneuver, he shattered the brothers' battle plan. Caught off guard, they were overwhelmed and mercilessly beaten by Yu Yuanzhen.
"Hao Tian Shield!!" The brothers once again employed this defensive ultimate technique.
But who was Yu Yuanzhen?
The attack of a 95th-level Super Douluo was incomparable to that of the Soul Sages like Ah Yin. With sheer overwhelming force, the Hao Tian Shield shattered instantly, and the two brothers were brutally slammed into the ground and pummeled.
"This can't be! How can the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon be so strong?"
Though the brothers still retained some ability to resist, doubt began to creep into their minds. Back in the sect, they had been praised as the strongest, leading them to believe that the Hao Tian Sect was truly invincible. After all, fighting opponents above their level had always been effortless.
But Yu Yuanzhen didn't care about any of that.
The idle gossip within the sect had irritated him, though he couldn't openly express his anger—after all, he had indeed abused his power.
At this moment, the core members of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family gathered together, alarmed by the news of an attack. However, the presence of the sect's pillar of support reassured them somewhat. Watching the Hao Tian brothers being pounded into the ground filled them with satisfaction. So what if they were the number one sect? If they dared to provoke the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, they'd get what they deserved.
In the corner, Yu Xiaogang stood with a complex expression on his face.
When he had been stuck at level 29, the Twin Stars of Hao Tian had been his idols—the geniuses among young soul masters.
But now, seeing his idols attack his own family, his feelings underwent an extreme shift.
"Hao Tian, Hao Tian… So this is the 'great' Hao Tian Sect, acting as they please? Why don't you go pick a fight with that mysterious master at the Tian Xing Academy?!
A bunch of cowardly trash soul masters!"
Seeing that Yu Yuanzhen gave them no opportunity to counterattack with their ultimate techniques, the brothers realized they could no longer hold back their soul power.
Tang Xiao was the first to fully unleash the thunderous power of his Lightning Hao Tian Hammer, neutralizing Yu Yuanzhen's attack and creating an opening for Tang Hao.
"Seventh Soul Skill·True Body of the Hao Tian Hammer!
Fourth Soul Skill·Barbarian King's Strength!
Sixth Soul Skill·Frenzy Descent!
Eighth Soul Skill·Mighty Vajra Transformation!
Killing God Domain·Killing Assault!
Hao Tian Nine Extremes·Nine-Step Combo!"
In an instant, Tang Hao unleashed all his hidden strengthening abilities. His blood energy surged out of his body, and with crimson eyes, he brought the Hao Tian Hammer crashing down upon Yu Yuanzhen like a berserk god.
For the glory of the Hao Tian Sect, Tang Xiao also gave it his all, seizing the opportunity during Tang Hao's fierce assault to activate his own True Body.
Relying on the inherited ultimate techniques of the Hao Tian Sect, the brothers temporarily managed to suppress Yu Yuanzhen.
This sight caused the members of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect to tense up, silently cheering for their sect leader.
"Arrogant! Do you think you're the only ones with a True Body martial soul?!"
"Seventh Soul Skill·True Body Martial Soul·Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon!"
With the head of a tyrannosaurus rex, the body of a Western dragon, and two massive membranous wings on its back, the figure hovering high in the sky was none other than the legendary true dragon—the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, hailed as the strongest beast martial soul.
"Heavenly Dragon Tribulation!!!"
As one of the upper three sects, how could the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect lack its own secret inheritance?
Aside from the ordinary clan members' dragon transformations, Yu Yuanzhen, as the sect leader, also inherited a devastating technique that allowed him to transform his body into lightning to crush his enemies.
By this point, the Tang brothers had fought themselves into a frenzy, their eyes bloodshot as they unleashed the Hao Tian Nine Extremes to resist Yu Yuanzhen.
In an instant, the clash of powerful soul skills enveloped the area, causing all living beings to instinctively tremble.
"So this is the battle of top-tier soul masters?"
Facing the gale-force winds generated by the soul skill collision, Yu Xiaogang squinted and crouched on the ground, silently marveling.
After a while, the terrifying scene subsided, and Yu Yuanzhen, transformed into the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, remained aloft in the sky, looking down imperiously like a ruler surveying his domain.
"Ants trying to shake a tree—overestimating yourselves," Yu Yuanzhen said coldly.
The Tang brothers now lay in deep craters, their eyes blank, blood trickling from their seven orifices—a pitiful sight.
Yu Yuanzhen slowly descended, glancing at the two.
"You're lucky to have survived my last attack."
In truth, Yu Yuanzhen had hesitated at the last moment. If he had permanently ended the Twin Stars of Hao Tian here, the Title Douluos of the Hao Tian Sect would surely have gone berserk.
Dispersing his massive True Body, Yu Yuanzhen prepared to bring the two brothers back to the sect for treatment.
If they were to die on his territory, it would be impossible to explain. Knowing the arrogant nature of the Hao Tian Sect, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect might very well face annihilation.
But just then, a massive hammer came hurtling toward him like a meteor. Yu Yuanzhen reacted swiftly, retreating explosively.
"Who dares?!"
Looking at the deep crater left by the hammer, Yu Yuanzhen already had a good idea of who it was.
How could the heirs of a sect go out training without a guardian?
"Old Dragon, spare these two juniors for my sake."
The Great Elder of the Hao Tian Sect appeared in the air, standing before the craters.
This kind of guardian duty wasn't something he usually did, but fearing that these two troublemakers might cause even more problems for the Hao Tian Sect, he decided to move his old bones.
Sure enough, the Twin Stars of Hao Tian, arrogant beyond measure, dared to provoke even a Title Douluo outside their own sect.
