Douluo: Becoming a God by Relying on my Enemies

As long as Yun Feng didn't act recklessly, nothing would happen. While Yun Feng was contemplating, the battle between Tang San, Dai Mubai, and their opponents began. Their opponents had an interesting team name: The Cat and Mouse Duo.

To enthusiastic cheers and applause, their opponents took to the stage. The duo consisted of a man and a woman. The woman was tall and looked to be in her twenties, with striking short red hair and sharp eyes, her fingers subtly twitching. Seeing this, Tang San deduced she was the 'Cat' in the duo, as Dai Mubai had informed him that feline martial spirit users often exhibited such finger movements.

The man was short but unexpectedly obese, even more so than Ma Hongjun. He resembled a large, round ball, with both his head and body in a spherical shape. His squinting eyes were the only feature resembling a mouse.

The cat and mouse duo's appearance was somewhat comical, with the slim cat and the fat mouse.

As they stepped onto the stage, they observed Tang San and Dai Mubai, hesitating briefly at the sight of their masks. Though some soul masters hid their identities during battles, masks were uncommon.

The slim cat girl scoffed dismissively. "Hiding behind masks, trying to be mysterious."

As the battle was about to commence, the audience's excitement was at its peak. The host wasted no time and announced the start of the second match in the two-on-two division of the thirteenth sub-arena.

With the host's signal, the Cat and Mouse Duo activated their soul power, transforming their bodies. At level thirty and above, beast soul masters underwent more significant changes during martial spirit possession.

As expected, the girl's martial spirit was a cat. Sharp claws extended from her fingertips, and bright silver streaks appeared in her red hair. Her pupils became vertical, her body crouched, ears perked, and a layer of fine silver fur covered her arms. Her spirit rings—one white, one yellow, one purple—shone brightly, indicating her third ring was of the millennium grade, promising a formidable spirit ability.

The fat mouse's transformation was amusing; his mouth protruded, becoming pointed, and whiskers sprouted. Huge buck teeth jutted out from beneath his upper lip, and his eyes widened. His chubby body crouched with slender forearms, and black claws emerged from his fingertips. His spirit rings mirrored the girl's—white, yellow, purple.

Seeing their opponents reveal their martial spirits, Tang San and Dai Mubai didn't idle. However, when Tang San's two rings appeared, the crowd erupted in boos. Voices reached Yun Feng's ears:

"When did Soul Masters dare to fight Soul Elders?"

"Is the Great Spirit Arena scamming us? What's the point of this mismatch? It's a waste of money!"

As these complaints spread, the audience's dissatisfaction grew.

"Refund! Refund!"

"Rigged match! Rigged match!"

"Shameless people, get off the stage!"

Hearing these taunts, Tang San's face turned green. Despite his lesser strength, he didn't expect such ridicule. If not for his injuries, he wouldn't be in this predicament. The thought of it deepened his inner turmoil and ignited a vengeful desire to retaliate once he recovered.

However, the Great Spirit Arena continued the match despite the uproar. With the battle underway, there was no turning back.

The slim cat girl moved swiftly, her legs propelling her like a whirlwind toward Tang San and Dai Mubai. Her first two rings shone as her claws slashed, sending ten bright silver claw shadows toward them. Her speed reached a terrifying level, and the soul power pressure escalated to its peak.

One ability boosted her speed, and the other enhanced her claws. Though she didn't know their names, Tang San correctly judged their effects. He drew a circle with his hands, stepping with Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, using Controlling Crane, Capturing Dragon to test his opponent's soul power.

As he side-stepped, the force of the girl's attack staggered him, and he realized why the Cat and Mouse Duo had secured four consecutive wins. Her soul power was nearly on par with Dai Mubai's. Fortunately, his Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track and Controlling Crane, Capturing Dragon allowed him to deflect her attack with his Mysterious Heaven Skill inner power.

The slim cat girl didn't expect to defeat him on her first strike, even if he was just a Soul Master. She remained vigilant, and as Tang San redirected her silver claw shadows, she closed in with her third ring glowing.

Meanwhile, Dai Mubai completed his martial spirit possession and charged at the fat mouse. The mouse didn't flinch, springing up with unexpected speed, his claws extended as his first two rings glowed. His speed exceeded even the slim cat's.

The fat mouse's appearance deceived opponents, masking his agility. Dai Mubai was shocked to find the mouse, like the cat girl, was an agility-type soul master. The cat's first ring was a ten-year augmenting ability, while the mouse's second ring offered a century-level boost, making him faster than the cat.

In terms of attack power, the mouse was weaker than the cat with his first two rings, but both were formidable level thirty-seven Soul Elders, a strong duo in their tier.

As both sides clashed, the battle's intensity reached a peak. The slim cat aimed to defeat Tang San swiftly, intending to aid the fat mouse afterward. Despite Tang San's apparent weakness, if they succeeded, their victory in the two-on-two match was assured.

Their four-win streak was hard-earned, and they weren't about to forgo the chance for five, where both points and prizes would multiply tenfold.
