Chapter 114 – The Haotian Brothers Brutally Beaten
"Brother Hao, I'll take the lead. Watch for the right moment."
Tang Xiao sensed the unfavorable situation and spoke.
Though both possessed the Haotian Hammer Martial Spirit, their cultivation paths within the sect differed due to their innate talent.
While the Haotian Hammer is considered a supreme martial spirit, not everyone follows the extreme path; only those regarded as potential successors to the sect leader would pursue such a course.
Tang Xiao, lacking innate full soul power at birth, missed the chance to become the sect leader's heir. Instead, he walked a different path.
While hunting strength-type soul beasts, he also focused on the lightning attribute, which granted him resistance to Yu Yuanzhen's lightning attacks.
Yu Yuanzhen's eyes flashed with disdain—how could someone capable of leading a soul master sect not have faced bloodshed and slaughter?
He instantly saw through what the two youngsters were planning. They simply wanted to rely on Tang Xiao's lightning resistance to buy Tang Hao time to charge up for a fatal blow.
"Fools!" Yu Yuanzhen said with contempt.
The further a soul master progresses in cultivation, the less useful such petty tricks become.
Yu Yuanzhen ignored Tang Xiao and instead turned to attack Tang Hao.
With such a simple move, he broke their coordinated battle plan. Caught off guard, the two brothers were mercilessly pummeled by Yu Yuanzhen.
"Haotian Body Shield!!" the brothers once again unleashed their defensive ultimate skill.
But who was Yu Yuanzhen?
Could the attack of a level 95 Super Douluo be compared to those of soul saints like Ah Yin and the others? With overwhelming force, the Haotian Body Shield was shattered. The brothers were pinned to the ground and beaten violently.
"This can't be! How is this possible? How can a mere Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon be this strong?!"
Though the brothers still had some strength left to resist, a wave of self-doubt engulfed their hearts. The constant bragging within their sect about being the strongest under heaven had made them mistakenly believe the Haotian Sect was truly invincible. They had indeed been able to fight above their level with ease in the past.
But Yu Yuanzhen had no patience for such delusions.
He had long been irritated by the gossip from the Haotian Sect but had kept his anger in check since he had indeed used his position for personal gain.
At that moment, all the core members of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan had gathered within the sect. Hearing that someone had invaded, they were somewhat panicked.
Fortunately, with the mighty pillar of the sect—Yu Yuanzhen—still standing, they felt reassured. Watching the Haotian brothers getting beaten into the ground brought them great satisfaction. So what if you're the so-called number one sect under heaven? If you mess with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, you'll still get smashed.
In the corner stood Yu Xiaogang, his face full of conflicting emotions.
Back when he was stuck at Rank 29, the Haotian Twin Stars were his idols—geniuses among young soul masters.
But now that his idols had come to attack his own clan, those feelings had turned into something else entirely.
"Haotian, Haotian... What a great Haotian. Just because you're the number one sect, you think you can do whatever you want? If you've got the guts, why not go challenge that mysterious lord from Tianxing Academy?
A bunch of bullies who only pick on the weak!"
Seeing that Yu Yuanzhen gave them no chance to counterattack with their ultimate skills, the brothers realized they could no longer conserve their soul power.
Tang Xiao was the first to unleash the lightning power of his Thunder Haotian Hammer at full force, neutralizing Yu Yuanzhen's attack and buying Tang Hao precious time.
"Seventh Soul Skill – Haotian True Body!
Fourth Soul Skill – Power of the Barbarian King!
Sixth Soul Skill – Berserker's Descent!
Eighth Soul Skill – Mighty Vajra Transformation!
Killing God Domain – Slaughter Assault!
Haotian Nine Ultimates – Ninefold Chain!"
This time, Tang Hao exploded with every trump card he had. The power of his blood essence surged outward, and with eyes glowing red like a berserk god, he smashed his Haotian Hammer toward Yu Yuanzhen.
For the honor of the Haotian Sect, Tang Xiao also went all out. While Tang Hao launched his furious assault, he activated his own Haotian True Body.
With the sect's ultimate techniques, the brothers actually managed to suppress Yu Yuanzhen for a brief moment.
The members of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect watched with their hearts clenched, inwardly cheering their sect leader on.
"Arrogant fools! Do you think your Martial Spirit True Bodies alone are enough?!"
"Seventh Soul Skill – Martial Spirit True Body: Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon!"
With the head of a tyrant dragon, a Western-style dragon body, and massive wings extending from his back, Yu Yuanzhen transformed into the legendary Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon—a beast martial spirit hailed as the strongest in the world.
"Azure Dragon Calamity!!!"
As one of the three upper sects, how could the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect not have its own secret techniques?
Beyond the dragonification used by ordinary clan members, the sect leader inherited a move that transforms his very being into lightning to obliterate enemies.
Tang Hao and Tang Xiao, in their battle frenzy, eyes red with rage, used the Haotian Nine Ultimates together to resist Yu Yuanzhen.
In an instant, the clash of powerful soul skills engulfed the entire area, making every living being tremble instinctively.
"So this is what a battle between top-tier soul masters looks like..."
Facing the storm generated by the soul skill clash, Yu Xiaogang narrowed his eyes, pressed to the ground in awe.
After some time, the terrifying spectacle finally subsided. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon that Yu Yuanzhen had become still hovered high in the air like an emperor overlooking the world.
"Like ants shaking a tree—beyond your ability," Yu Yuanzhen said coldly.
The Haotian brothers had each crashed into deep craters, their eyes rolled back, bleeding from all seven orifices, looking utterly miserable.
Yu Yuanzhen slowly descended, glancing down at the brothers.
"You're lucky to still be alive after my last attack."
He had hesitated at the last moment—if he'd killed the Haotian Twin Stars here in the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, the Haotian Sect's Title Douluos would likely go mad with rage.
Dispersing his colossal martial spirit true body, Yu Yuanzhen prepared to bring the two brothers back to the sect for treatment.
If they died on his turf, the consequences would be impossible to explain. The arrogant folks of the Haotian Sect would probably try to wipe out the entire Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect.
But just then, a massive hammer shot toward him like a meteor from the distance. Yu Yuanzhen reacted quickly and retreated in a flash.
"Who goes there?!"
Looking at the crater left by the hammer's impact, Yu Yuanzhen already had a good idea who it was.
How could a sect heir travel without an escort?
"Old Dragon, do me a favor. Let those two juniors off the hook this time."
The Grand Elder of the Haotian Sect descended from the sky, landing before the crater.
Normally, this kind of babysitting wasn't his job, but fearing the two fledglings might stir up even more trouble for the Haotian Sect, he'd decided to get involved.
Sure enough, the Haotian Twin Stars were so arrogant they didn't even respect Title Douluos.
