Chapter 135: Still Showing Off
Seeing Dai Mubai pounce at him, those 8 inch claws looking vicious, Yu Tianlin remained calm.
In his eyes, Dai Mubai's speed was simply too slow.
Yu Tianlin's third Spirit Ring had pushed his spiritual power to a level that could rival Tang San's third stage Purple Demon Eye in the original story. After Tang San absorbed the Spirit Condensation Wisdom Skull, his spiritual power was already close to that of an ordinary Spirit Douluo.
That was not hard to understand. The Spirit Condensation Wisdom Skull was purely spiritual in nature, and its main function was to boost the absorber's spiritual power, so it could raise Tang San to such a high level.
The Space Saint Dragon Skull was different. Its main attribute was space, but its quality far surpassed the Spirit Condensation Wisdom Skull. As a head type Spirit Bone, its enhancement to spiritual power was even more terrifying, directly raising Yu Tianlin's spiritual power to the level of an ordinary Spirit Douluo, even approaching that of a Title Douluo.
And spiritual power on the level of a Spirit Douluo was not exaggerated at all.
In the first part, there were no special methods for cultivating spiritual power. For Spirit Masters who were not focused on spiritual attributes, their spiritual power grew very slowly. Many Spirit Douluos only had average spiritual power.
With strong spiritual power came sharper senses. Hearing and sight became keen, awareness of the surroundings became extremely sensitive, and even thinking speed and calculation improved.
So in Yu Tianlin's eyes, Dai Mubai looked sluggish. If he wanted, he could dodge at will, making it impossible for Dai Mubai to even touch the hem of his clothes.
Yu Tianlin subconsciously calculated Dai Mubai's attack path. His body shifted slightly, and he tilted his head, neatly dodging the tiger claw.
Then, before Dai Mubai could even react, Yu Tianlin's fist slammed hard into Dai Mubai's abdomen, sending him flying.
Yu Tianlin had only used 1 third of his strength. Any more, and he worried he might kill Dai Mubai.
It sounded slow, but it happened in an instant. Many people did not even understand what happened before they saw Dai Mubai fly away. Yu Tianlin's movements were simply too fast.
Spirit Masters with strong mental power often had weaker bodies. Even if they could see an opponent's movements, their bodies might not react in time.
But Yu Tianlin was different.
Whatever he could see, his body could do.
"Pfft!"
Dai Mubai coughed blood in midair before crashing into the Blue Silver Grass Tang San had controlled.
Tang San had originally planned to use Blue Silver Grass to restrain Dai Mubai, to stop him from hurting his teacher's nephew. Unexpectedly, it ended up giving Dai Mubai a buffer instead.
Tang San had activated the Purple Demon Eye, and he was probably the only one present who clearly saw Yu Tianlin's movements. He was shocked, but not stunned. So the moment Dai Mubai hit the Blue Silver Grass, Tang San immediately controlled it to wrap around Dai Mubai and bind him.
For a moment, the entire hall fell silent.
"Ah!"
A heartbeat later, 2 shrill screams rang out, like they were about to tear the roof open.
It was the twin sisters Dai Mubai had brought.
"Shut up!" Dai Mubai roared.
Yu Tianlin's punch had made him spit blood, his insides burning with pain. Tang San's Blue Silver Grass was also tightening, the sharp thorns digging in and tormenting him. He was suffering inside and out.
And now those two girls were screaming on top of it, irritating him even more.
The twin sisters immediately went quiet, and the noise finally settled.
Looking at Dai Mubai's current state, Tang San said calmly, "Dai Mubai, you've already lost."
"I lost? Hahaha!"
A fierce glint flashed in Dai Mubai's eyes.
"I admit I underestimated you. This nouveau riche brat's reaction speed is surprisingly fast, and your Blue Silver Grass is quite resilient. But saying you've defeated me with just that is far too early."
As soon as he finished speaking, Dai Mubai's first Spirit Ring lit up. White light burst outward from his body, trying to blast away the Blue Silver Grass binding him.
It blew apart a few strands, but the vines immediately wrapped back around him.
Seeing the first Spirit Skill was not enough, Dai Mubai's second Spirit Ring lit up as well. A thick white light gathered in his mouth, then he spat it out with a tiger's roar.
The white light exploded the moment it collided with the Blue Silver Grass. A deafening blast echoed as the surrounding vines were shattered into fragments.
"Even if it's resilient, it's still just Blue Silver Grass," Dai Mubai sneered. "It thinks it can trap me?"
Breaking free, Dai Mubai ignored Tang San for the moment and turned his gaze toward Yu Tianlin.
"Next is you, you nouveau riche brat."
"That's not necessarily true," Tang San interrupted.
His second Spirit Ring shone, and a layer of fine Blue Silver Grass suddenly appeared across Dai Mubai's body, binding him again.
Dai Mubai struggled, only to find the vines tightening harder and harder. At the same time, his body began to go numb.
"Poison is such a hassle." Dai Mubai's face darkened. "I hate fighting control type Spirit Masters the most."
"Since that's the case," Dai Mubai growled, "then let me show you my third Spirit Skill!"
The purple Spirit Ring that had been hovering around him finally lit up. A powerful surge of Spirit Power erupted, instantly blasting the Blue Silver Grass wrapped around him into dust.
After using the third Spirit Skill, Dai Mubai's muscles bulged dramatically, tearing his clothes. His whole body looked like it had been plated in gold, bathed in a golden glow.
His tiger paws grew larger, and the claws turned bright silver, clearly sharper than before.
Now Dai Mubai gave off a cold, domineering aura, as if he really were the king of beasts.
Xiao Wu, who had not moved until now, sensed the danger and immediately activated her Martial Soul, releasing her Spirit Rings.
As 2 yellow Spirit Rings appeared, a pair of white rabbit ears rose on her head. Other than that, there were no major changes, except that her figure looked softer and her legs seemed longer.
After her Spirit possession, Xiao Wu stepped forward and stood beside Tang San, facing Dai Mubai. Neither of them attacked yet.
"Boy, there's an absolute power gap between us. You're no match for me," Dai Mubai warned.
Then he looked back at Yu Tianlin.
"But you, you nouveau riche brat, you're not bad. You even know how to play dumb, taking advantage of my carelessness to land a heavy hit."
Yu Tianlin had not moved since that punch. He simply watched Dai Mubai's performance like it was a street show.
Hearing those words, he finally spoke, his tone calm.
"I didn't land a heavy hit. I only used a fraction of my strength."
