Chapter 157: Dugu Bo, with the Potential of a Titled Douluo
["Is this what it looks like when a Martial Soul evolution triggers a change in the person, just like what I experienced before?"]
[Yu Xiaogang looked curiously at Dugu Bo, who was enveloped in a green energy sphere. He had previously heard his father describe the scene of him being affected by his Martial Soul evolution, so he reacted immediately.]
["Yes, you looked just like this back then."]
["I didn't expect Elder Dugu's Martial Soul to actually evolve as well."]
["It seems the boost this sixty-thousand-year-old Medusa brought him is truly significant. With this evolution, perhaps Elder Dugu also has the possibility of pushing for the rank of Titled Douluo."]
[Yu Yuanzhen said with a face full of smiles.]
[Initially, he thought he could use the information about this Medusa to win over a Soul Saint, but the man had already become a Soul Douluo.]
[And now, the other party even possessed the potential to become a Titled Douluo.]
[Doesn't this mean they directly recruited a future Titled Douluo for the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect this time?]
[At the thought of Dugu Bo having the chance to become a Titled Douluo, the Grand Elder trembled all over with excitement.]
[How difficult it was to win over a Titled Douluo.]
[For Geniuses who clearly had the potential to become a Titled Douluo at a glance, various forces across the Continent would issue invitations early on, ensuring they had a clear understanding of their own potential.]
[Therefore, trying to truly win someone over in such a situation requires paying a great price.]
[Someone like Dugu Bo, whose limit was most likely Soul Douluo but who gained the potential to achieve Titled Douluo status by obtaining a Soul Ring to raise his ceiling, is something one might not encounter once in many years.]
[And it just so happened that his own Sect helped him find this Soul Ring.]
[It was no wonder the Grand Elder was excited.]
[As long as Dugu Bo wasn't an ungrateful ingrate and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect didn't do anything excessive to him in the future...]
[...then Dugu Bo would be a die-hard follower of their Sect!]
["Sect Master, from now on, your attitude toward Elder Dugu must be gentle and polite. You must never let him develop any feelings of dissatisfaction toward our Sect."]
[The Grand Elder looked at Yu Yuanzhen and gave careful instructions.]
[Such a potential candidate for becoming a Titled Douluo must absolutely not be allowed to slip away.]
["Don't worry, Grand Elder. You can trust me to handle this!"]
[Yu Yuanzhen guaranteed directly. At a time like this, only a fool would show their rude side.]
[Under everyone's gaze, after another considerable amount of time, the green energy sphere surrounding Dugu Bo finally dissipated.]
[At this moment, Dugu Bo's appearance had changed.]
[His originally black hair and beard had now all turned dark green. Combined with Dugu Bo's slightly thin face, it actually gave off a cold and eerie feeling.]
[After a moment, Dugu Bo opened his eyes. His pair of black pupils had now turned into something like two emeralds, emitting a faint, shimmering light.]
[Looking through these green eyes, Yu Xiaogang felt as if he were seeing a venomous snake flicking its tongue.]
["Tsk, I guess I should expect nothing less from a snake-type Martial Soul. Just making eye contact already makes me feel chilly."]
[Yu Xiaogang rubbed his arms, as if doing so could dispel the cold sensation Dugu Bo brought him.]
["Hahaha, many thanks to the Sect Master and the Elders for your protection."]
[After finishing the absorption of the Soul Ring, Dugu Bo rose from the ground. First, he thanked Yu Yuanzhen and the others once again.]
[After completing the absorption of this Medusa Soul Ring, Dugu Bo felt more powerful than ever before, as if he could accomplish anything.]
[This feeling of exploding strength intoxicated him.]
[However, what puzzled Dugu Bo was that after absorbing a sixty-thousand-year Soul Ring, his Soul Power had only barely broken through to Rank 81.]
[Logically speaking, that shouldn't be the case, right?]
[Dugu Bo's confusion did not last long.]
["Hahaha, Elder Dugu, there's no need for thanks. Since you've joined our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, we are one family."]
["We also want to congratulate Elder Dugu on officially becoming a Soul Douluo, and for having the hope of becoming a Titled Douluo in the future!"]
[Yu Yuanzhen said with a face full of smiles.]
[However, his words left Dugu Bo somewhat confused.]
["Hope for becoming a Titled Douluo? Why do you say that, Sect Master?"]
["Elder Dugu, your gains this time aren't just a single Soul Ring. If you don't believe me, look at your own hair and beard."]
[Hearing Yu Yuanzhen's words, Dugu Bo subconsciously stroked his beard.]
[Then he froze.]
[Because at this very moment, his originally black beard had turned dark green.]
["This..."]
[Dugu Bo examined his dark green beard, then pulled the hair from the back of his head forward.]
[It was also dark green.]
["I am..."]
[Dugu Bo's hand holding his hair began to tremble.]
[Having already become a Soul Douluo, how could Dugu Bo lack knowledge?]
[This situation where even the Soul Master themselves undergoes changes after absorbing a Soul Ring proves that the Martial Soul has undergone a significant evolution!]
[No wonder he had barely reached Rank 81 after absorbing the Soul Ring; it turned out most of the power in the Soul Ring had been used to evolve his Martial Soul.]
[Thus, Dugu Bo hurriedly summoned his Martial Soul to inspect its condition.]
["What a huge change! Its size has grown much larger, its fangs are sharper, and these two sharp horns on its head—this is a trend toward transforming into a Dragon!"]
[Dugu Bo looked at the state of his Martial Soul with excitement, and Yu Yuanzhen and the others nearby did not disturb him.]
[No Soul Master could remain calm after experiencing such a change.]
[After an unknown amount of time, Dugu Bo, having seen enough of his Martial Soul's changes, finally calmed his emotions and thanked Yu Yuanzhen once more.]
["Thank you, Sect Master, for this gift of rebirth. This Medusa Soul Ring is too suitable for me; it actually caused my Martial Soul to evolve to such an extent."]
[Dugu Bo's gratitude was heartfelt.]
[His Martial Soul undergoing such a massive evolution had fiercely raised his previously nearly reached ceiling by a huge margin.]
[Just as Yu Yuanzhen said, he had hope for becoming a Titled Douluo!]
[At the thought that he actually had a chance to achieve the pinnacle of Soul Masters and become a Titled Douluo famous throughout the Continent, Dugu Bo could not help but feel wild joy in his heart.]
["I actually have the chance to become a Titled Douluo?"]
["Hahaha, Heaven truly favors me, Dugu Bo!"]
[And after the wild joy, Dugu Bo's feelings of gratitude toward Yu Yuanzhen and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect were naturally about to overflow.]
[In a World like Douluo Continent where strength is respected above all else, the enmity of blocking one's path is considered one of the greatest hatreds among Soul Masters.]
[Conversely, the grace of assisting one's path is almost the greatest kindness.]
[It could be said that from the moment he saw his Martial Soul evolve and knew he had the possibility of becoming a Titled Douluo...]
[...unless the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect themselves stopped acting like decent people, Dugu Bo would never jump off the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect's ship.]
