**Chapter 96: Yu Xiaogang Vomits Blood**
When the host finished speaking, the members of the Golden Generation Team and the Kamikaze Team summoned their respective Martial Souls.
Buzz—
Gu Ziyi was no exception, his Martial Soul—Talisman—was summoned.
Talismans exuding various mysterious charms, with runes flashing from time to time, appeared before everyone's eyes.
Everyone was a little surprised to see the talisman summoned by Gu Ziyi.
"Is this really a low-level Martial Soul?"
"It doesn't look simple to me. It doesn't look like a low-quality Martial Soul!"
"Yes, if I hadn't known beforehand, I would have thought it was a high-level Martial Soul..."
Everyone was a bit surprised by the appearance of Gu Ziyi's Martial Soul.
Buzz—
Yellow, Yellow, Yellow, Purple!
And with the appearance of his four Soul Rings floating under Gu Ziyi's feet, everyone was even more surprised.
"Huh?"
"Why does he have this kind of Soul Ring configuration?"
"Yellow, yellow, yellow, and purple. As one of the Pope's disciples, his third Soul Ring is actually just a simple yellow Soul Ring?"
"Yes, he is a personal disciple of the Pope. No matter how suitable the Soul Ring is for him, it's only a centenary-quality Soul Ring!"
"As a result, his Soul Ring isn't configured in the most ideal way..."
"No, no, no, aren't you focusing on the wrong thing?"
"Did you forget that his first Soul Ring was actually a simple white Soul Ring with a low quality?"
"Oh..."
"Yes, his first Soul Ring was supposed to be a white Soul Ring, wasn't it?"
"It is definitely a white Soul Ring, or it was supposed to be. I remember the news at the time that it was supposed to be a white Soul Ring. Why did it turn into a yellow Soul Ring now?"
"…"
After the Martial Souls and Soul Rings of all the competitors were revealed, the most eye-catching was definitely Gu Ziyi's.
Because everyone else in the field, including Bibi Dong, had ideal configurations for their Soul Rings—everyone else had the configuration of yellow, yellow, purple, and purple!
Bibi Dong also followed the same configuration, but there was an additional black Soul Ring, which would be her fifth Soul Ring.
However, that is because Bibi Dong is a Soul King, and the audience had known that for some time.
Therefore, among so many standard Soul Masters, the four Soul Rings of Gu Ziyi with the configuration of three yellows and one purple seemed unique in this competition.
Additionally, someone remembered that his first Soul Ring was supposed to be a white Soul Ring, but now that Soul Ring had turned into a yellow Soul Ring, all eyes were on Gu Ziyi.
"How is this possible..."
"His first Soul Ring is obviously a simple white Soul Ring..."
Yu Xiaogang was also surprised when he saw the Soul Ring configuration of Gu Ziyi.
He was 100% sure that his first Soul Ring had originally been a white Soul Ring, something that was worse than his own.
He had secretly compared Gu Ziyi's first Soul Ring with his many times before to prove that his was better.
What is this absurd situation now?
Why did his rival's first Soul Ring suddenly turn yellow?
'His Soul Ring evolved. Did the Pope find some legendary treasure for his disciple?'
Yu Xiaogang quickly guessed, but this guess made his face look even uglier.
If it really were those legendary treasures from heaven and earth that he had read about, he would go crazy with jealousy!
Because of his own qualifications, he had read various materials collected by his sect, just to see if there was any way to improve his own qualifications.
Therefore, Yu Xiaogang also knew that there were treasures from heaven and earth that could change a Soul Master's Martial Soul or Soul Ring on the Douluo Continent.
The problem was that such treasures really only existed in legends. His father had helped him search for them for a long time, but there was no positive news.
Most importantly, no one knew what these legendary treasures from heaven and earth actually referred to!
Later, Yu Xiaogang also gave up on this illusory idea, knowing that legendary treasures were truly difficult to find, and if you specifically searched for them, you would basically never find them in your entire life.
In his canonical future, he, Flanders, and Liu Erlong formed the Golden Triangle and lived through many adventures. They also had the idea of searching for this kind of natural treasure, but it was a pity that they never found it during their years of adventure.
Maybe he did find it, but he couldn't identify it because he didn't know what these natural treasures were.
"If he really obtained legendary treasures that ended up evolving his Soul Ring, then his Martial Soul must have also evolved because of it, right? No wonder his Martial Soul doesn't look like one of low quality."
"Then his qualifications aren't the same as before?"
"Then, if he surpassed level 30, he wouldn't have the original shackles holding him back. So, I should be able to surpass level 30?"
The more Yu Xiaogang thought about it, the uglier his face became. This was why he guessed that Gu Ziyi's Soul Ring had evolved, and because of this very real hypothesis to him, his face became more and more unpleasant.
Originally, in his opinion, if his rival could break the shackles, he could too.
Gu Ziyi's precedent gave him great confidence.
However, now he was told that Gu Ziyi had likely developed his Martial Soul and Soul Ring because he obtained some legendary treasure from heaven and earth, so how could he compare with his situation?
Where could he find such a legendary treasure from heaven and earth?
This is something you simply can't just naturally find, not something you can search for when you want it!
Unless you have a lot of luck, there's no way to even think about it.
Ahhh...
The intense jealousy changed Yu Xiaogang's face to something unrecognizable, and he looked fierce.
'Why? How could Gu Ziyi, who has innate Soul Power at level 1, be accepted as a personal disciple by the Pope, and now he might have obtained some legendary treasure from heaven and earth!'
Ahhh...
'He is obviously a more noble person. He's the son of the leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, the third largest sect of the Tiandou Empire.'
Whoosh~
The strong reluctance and intense jealousy made Yu Xiaogang's face turn red, and he ended up spitting a mouthful of blood.
"Little brother, are you okay?"
The stranger near Yu Xiaogang was shocked by the jet of blood he spat out.
"Uh, I'm fine..."
"Just a little cough!"
Yu Xiaogang quickly covered his mouth and waved his hand to indicate that he was fine.
After spitting out a mouthful of blood, the depression in his heart improved quite a bit, and he no longer felt so uncomfortable.
After a while, Yu Xiaogang managed to recover. After taking a handkerchief to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, he began to pay attention to the game again.
'It's okay, I don't need to be jealous of him...'
'Since he advanced because of some legendary treasure, that's even better for me. So, what he relied on to break through the level 30 shackles wasn't his skill, but external means!'
'I'm different. I can definitely break my shackles with my own abilities!'
'At that moment, the world will know that I am the first person to break the shackles and create a real miracle!'
Although Yu Xiaogang was watching the competition arena, his mind was still circling around this matter.
"First Soul Skill – Heart Purification Talisman!"
"Third Soul Skill – Golden Light Talisman!"
At this moment, in the competition arena, after Gu Ziyi applied the auxiliary soul skills to his entire team, he quietly stood behind the team, watching his teammates fight the opponent.
There was no specific need for Gu Ziyi to act personally, and no one could come and attack him.
Soon, the Martial Soul Hall Team, under Bibi Dong's strong leadership, easily won the match.
"The victory of the match goes to the Martial Soul Hall Team!"
The host quickly announced the victory of Gu Ziyi's team.
"Second Soul Skill – Purification Curse!"
After the Martial Soul Hall Team won, Gu Ziyi exceeded everyone's expectations and displayed his second soul skill at this moment.
At first, everyone was very confused.
But after his Purification Talisman took effect on his teammates, the audience's eyes widened again.
