"Ha, are you threatening me?"
However, after hearing the words of the Slaughter King, Shui Wuhen let out a cold laugh.
At the side, Shui Bing'er's expression also turned cold. Given her and her brother's situation, achieving one hundred consecutive victories and passing the Hell Road to gain freedom was only a matter of time. Why would they agree to the Slaughter King's proposal to become guest elders?
Moreover, this Slaughter King was very suspicious. He seemed extremely unwilling to let them attempt the Hell Road. There must be some kind of unspeakable scheme behind it.
"A threat?"
The Slaughter King shook his head. "No, no, no, this is just a reminder!"
"Then thank you for your reminder, but I think achieving a hundred consecutive victories and passing the Hell Road is a better path."
Shui Wuhen scoffed at the Slaughter King's words.
A threat is a threat—why bother making excuses!
Hearing this, the Slaughter King's expression instantly darkened, and his voice carried a chilling coldness. "Good, very good. It has been a long time since anyone dared to challenge my authority like this."
Tang San and Hu Liena had powerful backers, so he couldn't touch them. But couldn't he deal with this unknown Spirit Master?
So what if you're talented and strong?
As long as you don't possess the Killing God Domain, I am invincible within this Slaughter City!
Thus, the Slaughter King immediately gave the order: "Enforcement Team, heed my command! Number 0721 has shown disrespect to me. A kill order is now issued—whoever brings me his head will be granted guest elder status and a ten-thousand-year Spirit Bone!"
The Slaughter King's voice spread like a soundwave throughout the entire Slaughter City.
In an instant, several figures shot into the Hell Slaughter Arena like streaks of light. Judging from their auras, they were at least Spirit Douluo-level existences.
Moreover, unlike the fallen Spirit Douluo Shui Wuhen had encountered before, these figures were surrounded by Spirit Rings of various colors, clearly indicating that they could use Spirit Skills.
However, what caught Shui Wuhen's attention the most was the person among them. That person flew without wings or any auxiliary means, simply walking in the air—clearly a Title Douluo-level powerhouse.
"Shui Wuhen and the others are finished."
In a corner of the arena, Tang San couldn't help but shake his head. Although Shui Wuhen had just displayed extremely terrifying strength, facing two Title Douluo-level experts, and being unable to use Spirit Skills, his outcome was already decided.
Hu Liena was also stunned. She had never expected things to escalate to this extent.
Upon seeing the newcomers, Shui Bing'er's expression changed. "It's the captain of the Enforcement Team. Brother, what should we do now?"
Facing the Slaughter King, an unfathomable Title Douluo, was already extremely difficult. Adding another Title Douluo-level Enforcement Team captain and numerous members made it even worse.
After all, these Enforcement Team members were completely different from the Spirit Masters who had previously besieged Shui Wuhen. A Spirit Master with Spirit Skills and one without were on entirely different levels.
"Don't rush!"
Shui Wuhen waved his hand beside him, then looked toward the Slaughter King and the Enforcement Team members in the sky, narrowing his eyes. "Let me test their strength first."
"Articuno!"
"Understood!"
The Articuno on Shui Wuhen's shoulder flapped its wings and flew into the air. As Soul Power continuously poured into it, its body rapidly grew larger.
During this process, Shui Wuhen's Soul Power level was also completely exposed without any concealment.
"I didn't expect that at such a young age, your Soul Power would already be so high—reaching level 90. No wonder you could so easily kill those Spirit Masters before."
Sensing the fluctuations of Soul Power from Shui Wuhen, the Slaughter King was both shocked and even more intent on killing him.
Such a young level 90 was something he had never seen before. If he didn't eliminate him quickly, the threat he posed would be even more terrifying than other Killing Gods.
"Ni-ninety…"
At these words, Hu Liena covered her mouth and staggered backward in shock.
Tang San's pupils shrank sharply, his heart surging with overwhelming waves.
Level 90—how was that possible?
That meant Shui Wuhen had already broken through the most difficult bottleneck of a Title Douluo. As long as he obtained his ninth Spirit Ring, he would become a true Title Douluo.
And Shui Wuhen was only two years older than him!!!
After the shock, a feeling of jealousy rose uncontrollably.
"Why? Why? During the Elite Tournament, wasn't he only a Spirit Emperor? How did he reach level 90 in such a short time?"
Extreme unwillingness made Tang San clench his fists, blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.
"Wait!"
Suddenly, Tang San thought of a possibility and abruptly looked toward Shui Wuhen.
"Could it be… could it be that he is also a twin martial soul user?!"
Yes, that must be it. Only twin martial souls could allow such rapid growth, because the second martial soul could absorb Spirit Rings.
"Hu~"
Believing he had figured out the secret behind Shui Wuhen's rapid advancement, Tang San took a deep breath.
He also possessed twin martial souls. Shui Wuhen had only gotten ahead of him for now.
"Whoosh~"
Flying to Articuno's side, Shui Wuhen transmitted his voice: "Go test that Slaughter King. I'll handle the others!"
"Wuu~"
Hearing this, Articuno flapped its wings. Endless snow and wind descended from the sky, and the originally dark and bloody arena instantly transformed into a frozen paradise.
Then, Articuno opened its beak. A small ice-blue sphere condensed in front of it, then turned into a massive beam of light blasting toward the Slaughter King.
"Protect the King!"
Seeing this, the Enforcement Team members who had just arrived reacted—some tried to block in front of the Slaughter King, while others used Spirit Skills for long-range support.
However, they were too slow. That enhanced Ice Beam had already reached the Slaughter King.
Meanwhile, Shui Wuhen did not remain idle. The moment Articuno launched its attack, his figure vanished instantly. When he reappeared, he was already in front of the Enforcement Team captain.
At this moment, the captain had intended to use a Spirit Skill to support the Slaughter King, but his battle-honed instincts sensed danger. He instinctively launched an attack toward Shui Wuhen's direction.
"Boom!"
A dark bolt of lightning shot from his palm. If it hit, its power would be enough to instantly kill any Spirit Master below Title Douluo.
But Shui Wuhen's reaction speed was clearly faster. With a slight sidestep, he easily dodged, and an ice-blue long blade condensed in his hand.
New Ice Slash · Instant Twenty-One Slashes!
In an instant, twenty-one dazzling blade lights appeared in the void, reflected in the captain's pupils like meteors streaking across the night sky—calm yet breathtaking.
In the next moment, Shui Wuhen's figure flashed, passing through the Enforcement Team captain and appearing four to five meters behind him.
