Chapter 183 Number : Women's Team
"The first match of the fifth round, number 25 versus number 30!"
Zhong Dingxiu drew lots and selected the two teams that would play first.
Team No. 25 has a female captain whose soul power has reached level 30, making her a quasi-soul master. She has just not yet obtained the third soul ring, so she is still a great soul master.
The remaining six team members are also women, four great soul masters and two soul masters, but the soul power of the two soul masters has also reached level 20, and they are only one soul ring away from entering the realm of great soul masters.
The seven members of Team 25 all look 60% similar, and their martial spirits are the same, a beast spirit called the Elemental Fox.
"Elemental Fox, this is a very peculiar soul beast..."
The elemental fox, as a soul beast, is a rather peculiar type. It does not have the natural charm of other fox soul beasts. It is covered with brown hair, has creamy fluffy fur on its neck, and has a pair of big ears.
Before reaching a thousand years of cultivation, the elemental fox's attack methods can only be based on the body, stabbing, biting, and collision, etc. After reaching a thousand years of cultivation, the body will undergo some strange transformation due to the elemental energy contained in the surrounding environment.
If the elemental fox lives in a desert or volcanic area, the hair on its body will be dyed fiery red, the fluff on its neck will turn golden, and its fluffy tail will appear like a burning flame.
If the elemental fox lived in an environment like the Far North, the fur on its body would be short and dense, and turn blue. The fur on its neck would fall off completely, and its tail would become thin and long.
Although the appearance of most soul beasts will change depending on the environment, especially the external fur, which is the most obvious, they can still be judged by humans to be the same species.
The only exception is soul beasts such as the elemental fox. Once their cultivation reaches the thousand-year level, they will undergo a transformation similar to evolution due to the elemental energy in the surrounding environment.
"Is it so strange?" Listening to Zhou Qing's description, Xiao Wu recalled some strange-looking fox soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest and thought about the possibility that they were elemental foxes.
"Anyway, that's what's said in a book called 'Soul Beast Strange Stories' in the Notting College library. The author of that book is called Tang Tianren. He never made it past the Soul Venerable realm, but he loved learning about soul beasts and had a very deep understanding of all kinds of soul beasts below a thousand years old. It's said that during his lifetime, he provided the Spirit Hall with a lot of research data on low-age soul beasts, thus leaving his name in the world."
Zhou Qing said, "The discovery of the elemental fox was because Tang Tianren found that the cubs of foxes with elemental powers, such as water foxes, fire foxes, ice foxes, and leaf foxes, all looked the same when he was traveling around the continent. Then, during an adventure, he witnessed an elemental fox lying on ice crystals and transforming into an ice fox. That's why he was sure that the elemental fox had such power."
"Later, he also found soul masters whose martial souls were elemental foxes, and discovered that after they broke through to the Soul Master level, their martial souls would evolve and become water foxes, fire foxes, etc."
"The specific elemental fox they will transform into is related to the attribute of the third spirit ring they obtain. As for the attributes of the spirit beasts from which the first two spirit rings come, it will not have any effect on the transformation of the martial soul at the third spirit ring. However, after this type of spirit master decides which element he or she will control in the future, the first two spirit rings will also choose spirit beasts with corresponding elemental attributes."
Tang San was puzzled: "If that's the case, the spirit master with the elemental fox spirit should be a large family. Why are they participating in this kind of competition?"
"No, it's a small family at most. And just like soul beasts like the elemental fox, they are distributed in various environments across the continent. Soul masters with this kind of martial spirit are also distributed in various towns and villages across the continent." Zhou Qing shook his head and asked, "You can't let them all unite and form a family, right? If that's the case, the Lone Wolf and Lone Wolf Martial Spirit Family will be the strongest force on the continent. The number of people alone can kill all the Titled Douluo of the three sects." "That's true." Tang San suddenly realized.
"Moreover, once the elemental fox has completed its transformation, its cultivation becomes extremely slow... The specific reason is unknown, but the Soul Beast Oddities and the Soul Beast Encyclopedia both record that although the elemental fox species is huge, none of them is more than ten thousand years old. However, according to the latest version of the Spirit Hall Encyclopedia, elemental foxes over nine thousand years old have been discovered..."
Zhou Qing was also a little puzzled by this. "Perhaps, the Elemental Fox Martial Soul also possesses this characteristic. Therefore, since the beginning of records, no soul master with the Elemental Fox Martial Soul has ever broken through to the Soul King realm."
Regarding this point, Zhou Qing believes that it is mainly because this world has not established a complete basic system for soul power cultivation.
The cultivation of soul power depends entirely on the cultivation method brought about by the meditation process of martial soul. As for the meridians and acupoints inside the body, he has only a vague understanding. Various skills are also mostly granted by soul rings.
This can actually explain why the top three sects are so powerful, because they all have their own soul skills, which proves that they all understand the human body in their own way and from their own perspective.
The Chaos Cloak Hammer Technique of the Haotian Sect and the Distraction Control Technique of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, one focuses on the body and the other focuses on the spirit, both surpass other families and sects at the basic level.
And the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family?
The original novel did not explicitly state that they had any self-created soul skills, but it required that when choosing soul rings, the family members must choose soul beasts with dragon blood.
Perhaps, what this family values is the purity of the dragon bloodline of the martial soul itself!
But what is certain is that the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family's basic practice theories in the two major aspects of body and spirit are definitely not as good as those of the Haotian Sect and the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect.
Back to the owners of the Elemental Fox Martial Soul, if this type of soul master possesses a complete method of cultivating physical, mental, and soul power, and can allow the soul power to circulate like Tang San's Xuan Tian Gong, then in theory it is impossible for them to be limited to the Soul Sect realm.
[As for the reason, I do understand it. ]
At this time, the voice of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm sounded in the minds of Zhou Qing, Tang San, Xiao Wu and Romantina.
Zhou Qing was startled, and glanced at Qing Zhuzhu, Mo Hen, and Wang Sheng calmly. Seeing that they were watching the game seriously, he breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, he was really afraid that the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm would think that these three were also "family members" and expose its own existence.
[Regarding foxes, you humans often describe them as cunning and clever. The ancestor of the elemental fox was a thief, but he failed to gain anything and ended up losing more than he gained. As a result, he and his race underwent a wrong evolution. Once they completed the elemental transformation, they could no longer break through to a higher level...]
