Douluo: System Cross-Dressing as Qian Renxue Empress Consort

"Naturally, I'm happy to oblige," Li Yu replied with a faint smile.

Tang San thought he had succeeded, and the expected outcome was just as he hoped for.

Of course, he was different from Tang San.

Tang San was likely too hesitant to act decisively and give his all unless a situation like this was fully achieved.

But Li Yu was different—regardless of whether or not this consensus was reached, he could still act according to his own will.

If anyone dared to interfere...

Heh, sorry, they'd have to join in the fight as well.

" Heh heh, you will regret your choice!" Tang San grinned, his eyes filled with killing intent and disdain at this moment.

"Oh?" Li Yu raised an eyebrow, then smiled, "Regret? Someone will definitely regret it."

"Arrogant!" Tang San eyes darkened, and he glanced at the referee.

"The match begins," the referee belatedly announced, then left the stage.

Since it had been confirmed as a life-and-death match, the referee had no further role to play.

...

"Can Little San really do it? Why has it become a life-and-death battle!" Oscar was very anxious. "So reckless, really reckless! How did it come to this…"

According to the plan, they were supposed to conserve their strength and fight for the second spot in the competition.

But now...

Oscar glanced at Flanders and Zhao Wuji, whose faces were pale and energy was drained, and then at Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun, who were on the verge of collapsing.

He was growing more and more desperate.

"Interesting," Yue Guan and Ghost Douluo lips curled slightly as they quietly observed the match.

Bibi Dong looked toward Qian Renxue, wanting to see her expression, but was taken aback by what she saw.

Qian Renxue was calm.

But in her eyes, there was not the slightest sign of worry.

Could it be that Li Yu truly wasn't just a five-ringed Spirit Ancestor, as Sword Douluo Chen Xin had said?

Bibi Dong instinctively turned her gaze to Dugu Bo, who was equally calm and unconcerned.

Her brows furrowed slightly.

...

In the arena.

" Heh heh, do you think your talent is unmatched in this era, your strength invincible among your peers?" Tang San sneered as he took a step toward Li Yu, and soul rings began to rise from his feet.

"Oh, I never said that," Li Yu seemed somewhat surprised.

"But that's what you're thinking, isn't it?" Tang San eyes narrowed slightly, and his two yellow, one purple, and two black soul rings blinked momentarily.

He continued to step forward.

"You took my bone, humiliated me time and time again. Do you know…" Tang San eyes suddenly became sharp, "You've chosen the path to death!"

"I took your bone?" Li Yu remained calm, "Wasn't it you who lost to me? How did it turn into me taking yours?"

After a pause, he added with some surprise, "I didn't expect the son of Clear Sky to be such a sore loser."

Tang San breath faltered.

Then, he stepped forward again, "Stop your excuses. The truth is, my external soul bone is now with you!"

Buzz~

Another black soul ring appeared beneath Tang San feet.

He sneered at Li Yu, "And today, I will take it all back!"

...

"Sixth ring!"

"How old is Tang San? And he's already a Spirit Emperor with six rings? This is impossible!"

"Such power, but he just pretended to be weak earlier. He probably wanted to lure Li Yu into agreeing to this life-and-death match. Tang San is really devious!"

"Li Yu might be in danger now…"

The crowd stared in shock at Tang San in the arena.

So did Bibi Dong and the other Title Douluos.

It was obvious that Tang San had used some means to conceal his aura, which is why they hadn't detected the true extent of his power.

And the person who had used this method didn't need to be mentioned—everyone knew.

"Sixth ring, Spirit Emperor, dual Martial Spirits... he's ruining his future," Bibi Dong squinted slightly but shook her head in disbelief.

She herself was a dual Martial Spirit user, so she understood that to make such rapid progress, his second Martial Spirit must have already absorbed a soul ring.

In her eyes, this was a disastrous decision.

"Could it be because his external soul bone was forcibly removed, that's why he made such a choice?" Bibi Dong recalled the intelligence she had received, quietly speculating.

Otherwise, with Tang Hao guidance, Tang San likely wouldn't have made this move.

A championship was just a fleeting honor. When compared to the long-term future of his soul master career, it didn't seem like it was worth it.

"Was it a mental demon? Did he really need to kill Li Yu??" Bibi Dong shook her head, then her gaze shifted to Qian Renxue.

A six-ringed Spirit Emperor with dual Martial Spirits was definitely not something Li Yu could compete with right now.

"Hmm?" Bibi Dong was stunned. Qian Renxue was still calm.

...

"Oh My God, when did Little San become a Spirit Emperor with six rings!" Oscar exclaimed.

Flanders and Zhao Wuji also had confused expressions. They hadn't known that Tang San had reached the sixth ring.

"It's now secured!"

...

In the arena.

"Do you see? This is the difference between you and me!" Tang San sneered as he looked at Li Yu, "You thought your three purple and two black soul rings were the pinnacle of talent, invincible among your peers?"

"Heh, what about now? Do you still think that?"

Li Yu quietly watched Tang San performance, his face still wearing a faint smile without interrupting.

The higher you stand, the harder you fall.

"Hmm?"

Tang San noticed that Li Yu didn't react at all—not even a trace of fear—and his anger flared up immediately.

"Did you lose your mind or something?"

"Heh, is this all it takes for you to not accept reality?"

"Let me show you what true genius looks like!"

Tang San grinned maliciously, and the six soul rings around him vanished. Then, a black Clear Sky Hammer fell to the ground with a loud clang.

Clang!

The platform seemed to shake under the weight of the hammer.

And the next moment...

Black! Black! Black! Black! Black! Black!

Six pitch-black soul rings suddenly emerged from Tang San feet, and a terrifying aura instantly radiated from his body.

...

"Just as I thought."

Bibi Dong shook her head, but her curiosity about Li Yu strength grew stronger.

"My God, my God, is Little San even human?!" Oscar screamed.

"Monster, monster, this is just... a monster!" He was nearly in tears. He couldn't believe it. Tang San, the one they had once called a brother, had chosen to become such a beast.

With this kind of soul ring configuration, not even fifteen years old, already a Spirit Emperor with six rings—did he have any regard for others?

He's simply a monster!

Tai Long and the others were also dumbfounded.

Flanders finally showed a smile on his face, "Now, let's see who dares to underestimate us, Shrek!"

"Looks like Tang San will be protecting us from now on," Zhao Wuji said, also feeling emotional.

"Ruining his future," Qian Renxue and Dugu Bo shook their heads.

A dual Martial Spirit with such reckless behavior—it was simply a brain-dead decision.

...

"Li Yu, if you kneel and beg for mercy, taking off the Eight Spider Lances and returning them to me, I might consider sparing your life!" Tang San fixed his gaze on Li Yu, his eyes cold, as if looking at an ant on the ground.
