Chapter 23 - Defeating Dugu Yan

Dugu Yan walked out of Heaven Dou Royal Academy. She had to go home once a month, not only to see her grandfather but also for him to guide her in cultivating her spirit power.

Suddenly, a figure caught her attention.

By the roadside, a child who looked only seven or eight years old was staring at her intently.

His eyes were burning with excitement.

Although Dugu Yan considered herself quite charming, being stared at with such intensity by a child so much younger than her...

This was truly the first time, and her steps involuntarily paused.

Could her charm have reached such a level?

Dugu Yan began to imagine things, and Lu Yuan instantly became a suitor in her mind.

As the granddaughter of Poison Douluo, Dugu Yan's status was the most transcendent existence in the entire Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

It was natural that she wouldn't lack suitors. Even Yu Tianheng was subtly pursuing her.

But a suitor like Lu Yuan, so young and seemingly tender, was indeed the first she had ever seen.

This immediately filled her with curiosity and excitement.

She wanted to know what exactly about her attracted the child in front of her, and she was delighted by her immense charm.

However, very quickly, the expression on her face stiffened, and then her complexion even darkened.

"Dugu Yan, Spirit: Jade Phosphor Serpent, spirit power level twenty-seven, thirteen years old this year!"

"In the entire Heaven Dou Royal Academy, besides Yu Tianheng, you are the strongest."

"I heard you are also the granddaughter of Poison Douluo. I hope you don't disappoint me."

Lu Yuan looked at Dugu Yan in front of him as if he were looking at some rare treasure, his gaze filled with fervor.

His tone was somewhat excited. Although his main purpose this time was to approach Dugu Yan, wanting to have a Soul Duel with her was not just an excuse.

Dugu Yan's talent, to him, was only average, but to outsiders, it was enough to be called an unparalleled Genius.

Moreover, the Jade Phosphor Serpent Spirit is a very powerful type among high-level Spirits.

"Who are you?"

"Are you waiting for me here just to have a Soul Duel with me?"

Although Lu Yuan didn't explicitly mention a Soul Duel, his tone and actions constantly revealed his desire for one.

"Senior Sister Dugu, my name is Lu Yuan."

"I'm waiting for you here because I want to experience the strength of the legendary Poison Douluo's granddaughter. What else could it be?"

Lu Yuan secretly apologized in his heart for lying and deceiving Dugu Yan.

However, for the Immortal Herb, it was unavoidable.

He would have to compensate Dugu Yan and her grandfather well later.

Upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, spoken without the slightest hesitation, Dugu Yan's face immediately stiffened.

She instantly fell into shame. Thinking of her narcissistic thoughts just now, she couldn't help but feel her face burning, and she was overcome with embarrassment and anger.

"You annoying little brat, you said you want a Soul Duel, right?"

"But if you lose, you'll have to be my servant from today onwards."

Dugu Yan spoke coldly, her gaze towards Lu Yuan now filled with displeasure.

The recent experience, even recalling it now, brought waves of shame.

Since this brat was asking for a beating, she would gladly fulfill his wish right here.

"Alright, Senior Sister Dugu, if you lose, you also have to agree to one condition of mine."

"I haven't thought of the specifics yet; I'll tell you this condition in the future."

Lu Yuan never suffered losses. Since Dugu Yan wanted him to be her servant if he lost...

Then it wasn't too much to ask for a condition if he won, was it?

Of course not too much!

"Alright, but first, you have to be able to defeat me!"

Dugu Yan didn't believe she would lose. She was a control systemSpirit Master.

Her first two Spirit Abilities, Jade Phosphor Red Poison and Jade Phosphor Blue Poison, were extremely potent.

Most Spirit Masters enveloped by her snake venom would eventually turn into a pool of pus.

Moreover, her Spirit Abilities also had special amplification effects. She was confident that dealing with the brat in front of her was no problem at all.

"First Spirit Ability: Jade Phosphor Red Poison!"

"Second Spirit Ability: Jade Phosphor Blue Poison!"

Dugu Yan was even more overbearing than Yu Tianheng at Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

She didn't even consider going to the Soul Fighting Platform and immediately possessed her Spirit.

Her delicate red lips instantly exhaled a large amount of sweet-smelling Qi.

Large amounts of red and blue Qi spread directly outwards.

Dugu Yan also took a sudden step forward, her slender right leg sweeping directly towards Lu Yuan's chest.

Facing Dugu Yan's unscrupulous sneak attack, Lu Yuan showed no surprise.

The lightning attribute inherently possessed powerful penetrative and purifying effects, which could be said to have a considerable restraining effect on Dugu Yan's snake venom.

Although Lu Yuan was not yet considered ultimate lightning, he was still the strongest existence under the ultimate attribute.

At this moment, facing the snake venom released by Dugu Yan, he didn't take it to heart at all.

Lightning flashed around him, and a large amount of Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison vanished and was completely purified the moment it approached him.

Facing Dugu Yan's sweeping slender leg, Lu Yuan's eyes showed no fluctuation.

He raised his hand and grabbed Dugu Yan's sweeping calf.

Lu Yuan's physical strength was far beyond what Dugu Yan could compare to. At this moment, Lu Yuan, holding Dugu Yan's calf, suddenly showed a smile.

Seeing that smile, Dugu Yan suddenly had a bad premonition.

The next moment, she knew the source of that premonition.

Lu Yuan actually pulled her up forcefully and then slammed her to the ground like a sack.

This wild combat directly made Dugu Yan scream in terror and close her beautiful eyes.

She was already somewhat afraid to look at the upcoming scene.

Being slammed to the ground like this would definitely hurt a lot.

She might even be disfigured, and she didn't want to be disfigured and become an ugly monster.

But after a long time, Dugu Yan still didn't feel any pain.

She hesitantly opened her beautiful eyes and cautiously glanced, only to see that she was less than half a meter from the ground.

And that hateful little brat's face was now filled with a mischievous smile.

Lu Yuan, of course, wouldn't actually smash her down. He had no enmity with Dugu Yan at all.

They were even a community of interests. He wasn't so foolish as to offend a future friend.

"Senior Sister Dugu, I won this time."

"From today onwards, you owe me a condition. I'll come find you once I've thought of it."

"Bye-bye!"

Lu Yuan's small face revealed a cute smile, then he let go and dropped Dugu Yan to the ground.

"Ow..."

Thrown to the ground so suddenly, Dugu Yan didn't react at all and landed squarely on her backside.

She immediately clutched her perky little bottom, glaring angrily at the retreating Lu Yuan.

Inside her red lips, a pair of small canine teeth constantly rubbed together, wanting to rush up and bite Lu Yuan fiercely... We've leveled up, brothers! It's going on sale tomorrow!

The next chapter, I'll make it three thousand characters directly!
