"Indeed, despite some recklessness, we've managed to gather some intelligence," Huo Wu remarked cautiously as the surrounding Blue Silver Emperor grew denser. She encouraged Yu Feng, then continued, "However, based on my understanding of Tang San, under such circumstances, Guangling would never stay in one place. This environment he's created is most suitable for their movement."

"Exactly. In this kind of terrain, we're entirely passive, unable to discern the opponent's true whereabouts," Yu Tianheng said solemnly. "Unfortunately, none of us possesses scouting abilities."

Dugu Yan's martial soul was the Azure Dragon Scale Serpent, venomous but ineffective against the resilient Blue Silver Emperor. Moreover, Dugu Yan dared not use it, as if the poison were to spread, Yu Tianheng and the others would also be affected.

This kind of contest couldn't be solved with antidotes.

Although Ye Lingling, with her 9-heart Flowering apple Douluo martial soul, could heal any injury, she couldn't neutralize poison. While her robust vitality allowed her to resist toxins to some extent, the experience was still unpleasant.

That was the disadvantage of their Tian Dou Imperial Family team.

Meanwhile, Tang San, relying on his connection to the Blue Silver Emperor, had already pinpointed Huo Wu and the others' exact positions.

Although Tang San couldn't project his spiritual power yet to sense Huo Wu and the others' locations directly, thanks to the advantage of being integrated with the Blue Silver Emperor, he could perceive their specific positions and movements through the leaves and roots of the Blue Silver Emperor, sensing their subtle vibrations.

But how would Tang San communicate with Xiao Wu and Guangling?

Naturally, he devised a set of secret signals.

Within the Endless Grassland, Tang San's Blue Silver Emperor's leaves would bend in a certain direction, guiding Xiao Wu and Guangling to locate Huo Wu and the others.

As for why not use verbal communication?

Wasn't the purpose of creating the Endless Grassland to shield the enemy's vision? If they were to shout, wouldn't it reveal their positions to the enemy?

In a formal Spirit Master competition, it wouldn't matter, given the massive audience and the inherently noisy environment.

But now, there was only one spectator: Qin Ming. Moreover, as a referee, he had to be fair and impartial, unable to give reminders to Huo Wu, Yu Tianheng, and the others.

At this moment, Guangling advanced along the direction indicated by the bending Blue Silver Emperor leaves. With her Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track steps, she moved swiftly. After covering some distance, the Blue Silver Emperor beside her suddenly bound her waist, halting her progress.

This meant she couldn't advance further, or else she'd be discovered.

Then, three Blue Silver Emperor leaves stretched towards the sixty-five-degree sky, indicating that Guangling needed to use her soul skill in that direction, specifically her third soul skill.

Guangling aimed her Sun-Moon Divine Bow at the sixty-five-degree sky, pulling the bowstring like a full moon. Her third soul ring lit up, condensing into an arrow shimmering with lightning.

Sizzle!

As the thunderbolt arrow shot out, it split into over a dozen arrows in mid-air, connecting with each other with the power of lightning, forming a thunderous spider web with a diameter exceeding thirty meters, descending towards Huo Wu and the others' location.

"Attack!" As a member of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon clan, Yu Tianheng was extremely sensitive to the power of thunder. He instantly sensed the thunderbolt arrow net about to descend upon them.

Alerted by him, everyone dispersed immediately.

However, Ye Lingling was slower, and both Shi Mo and Shi Shi were suddenly bound by the Blue Silver Emperor, struggling to break free.

Twelve thunderbolt arrows instantly covered Ye Lingling, Shi Mo, and Shi Shi, and the blue thunderous power invaded their bodies, causing their hair to stand on end.

"Ah~"

"Ah!"

"Ah——"

The three screamed, alerting Huo Wu, Yu Tianheng, and the others who had scattered. However, as they moved to rescue, the Blue Silver Emperor around them sprang into action, entangling them.

Osro, with his agility-based attacks, and Dugu Yan, with her control abilities, were immediately bound, unable to break free from the entanglement of the Blue Silver Emperor.

Meanwhile, Yu Feng soared into the air, observing the situation on the entire battlefield, remaining vigilant against hidden arrows, but found nothing.

The Blue Silver Emperors also concealed the figures of Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Guangling.

As long as they didn't move, Yu Feng would find it difficult to detect them. Moreover, Tang San could control the irregular movements of the Blue Silver Emperor leaves in the Endless Grassland to confuse Yu Feng's sight.

"Damn it!"

"Thunderous Wrath!"

Accompanied by the blue thunder, Yu Tianheng unleashed his third soul skill, Thunderous Wrath, doubling his attack and increasing his soul power by fifty percent.

This was an amplification-type skill, but its amplification capacity was fixed and couldn't increase like the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda and the Blue Silver Emperor's amplification soul skills, which increased with soul power level upgrades.

"The first soul skill, Thunderous Dragon Claw!"

After enhancing his own attack and soul power, Yu Tianheng used his first soul skill, transforming his hands into dragon claws, effortlessly slicing through the surrounding Blue Silver Emperors as if cutting vegetables.

However, the vitality of the Blue Silver Emperors was extremely robust, capable of drawing power from the earth. Yu Tianheng's slashing speed was still slower than the Blue Silver Emperors' growth rate.

Nevertheless, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul truly deserved its status as a top-tier beast martial soul, able to easily tear apart even the Blue Silver Emperors.

Unfortunately, the vitality of the Blue Silver Emperors was incredibly tenacious.

"Don't waste soul power recklessly!" Huo Wu's voice came from afar, startling Yu Tianheng. He thought to himself, "Something's not right. Why is the captain's voice so faint? How much distance have we been separated by? Could it be that the previous attack was just to split us up, in order to pick us off one by one?"

Yu Tianheng's reaction was indeed swift.

However, at this moment, they had already been separated. Yu Tianheng didn't even know which way to go; the Blue Silver Emperor had turned this area into a maze.

Meanwhile, Xiao Wu swiftly navigated through the Blue Silver Emperor thicket, tossing the trembling Ye Lingling, who had been electrified, out of the arena.

As for Shi Mo and Shi Shi, specializing in physical defence, they could withstand the thunderous power of Guangling's lightning, but their muscles and bones were numb, rendering them unable to unleash their full combat power.

Assisted and entangled by the Blue Silver Emperor, they were kicked out of the arena by Xiao Wu using her waist bow, thus losing their eligibility to continue the match.

Qin Ming helped the three up and used soul power to alleviate the thunderous power within Ye Lingling's body, saying, "Take a moment to recover yourselves and Shi Mo and Shi Mian."

"Yes." Ye Lingling's hair was still standing on end, but there was no time to fix it. She could only use her soul skills to treat herself and the brothers Shi Mo and Shi Shi.

During this period, Oslo and Dugu Yan were also thrown out of the arena by Xiao Wu.

In just a few minutes, only Huo Wu, Yu Tianheng, and Yu Feng remained from the Tian Dou Imperial Family team.

"Is Tang San really a support type?" Oslo was shocked. "Is the Blue Silver Grass covering the entire arena the soul power a Spirit Master should have?"

"And those Blue Silver Grasses are extremely tough. I find it hard to tear them apart."

"Is this really not a control type?"

After pondering for a moment, Dugu Yan asked Qin Ming, "Teacher Qin Ming, is Tang San the master of martial soul theory?"
