Douluo Dalu 5: Rebirth Of Tang San

Due to their violent temperament, Infernal Tigers frequently appeared in the Great Beast Fighting Arena. They were generally oppressed by the Golden Tigers, and they were not considered nobility. This made them discontent and consequently even more ferocious.

Today, the Shrek Squad was set to face such an Infernal Tiger squad—one ninth-order and four eighth-order Infernal Tigers.

They had dark purple eyes, cold and cruel. They looked at the five members of the Shrek Squad, who were much smaller in stature, with a predatory gaze.

"See that? See that? Now you know why I said you should bet on the six-minute mark. It's because today, the Shrek Squad will face the incredibly ruthless, brutal, and formidable kings of beasts—the Infernal Tiger Squad. I believe the Infernal Tiger Squad can win within six minutes. No amount of skill can stand a chance against such overwhelming strength. The field abilities of the Infernal Tiger Squad completely counter the Shrek Squad. I bet on the Infernal Tiger Squad."

The human spectators held their breath.

The host had a point: Infernal Tigers were truly, truly strong. Among these five Infernal Tigers, there was even a ninth-order one. They had achieved five consecutive victories, brutally tearing apart their opponents each time. They were notorious and were considered very likely to win ten successive victories. No one expected the Shrek Squad to face such opponents in their fifth match.

However, they did not notice the expressions of the Shrek Squad members.

Of course, the masks obscured their faces, making it hard to see their expressions. The distance made their eyes even harder to discern.

At this moment, Wu Bingji, Gu Li, Du Bai, and Cheng Zicheng were looking at Tang San with astonishment and bewilderment.

The reason was simple. Just yesterday, when they learned their opponents would be tiger demons, Tang San analyzed the situation and told them that their opponents would likely be Infernal Tigers. And even if there were some members from different clans, Infernal Tigers would be the main force. Thus, the tactics they’d discussed the day before were primarily meant for dealing with precisely these Infernal Tigers.

And now, the situation on the other side proved Tang San's words.

Were Infernal Tigers easy to deal with? Of course not. Not only did they possess powerful physical abilities, but all their attacks were imbued with the darkness element and had great corrosive power. Moreover, they were formidable on the mental level, capable of using various darkness-related skills, and their mid-range attacks were also quite terrifying. Especially with a ninth-order leader, it could be said that this squad had practically no weaknesses.

If not for the fact that the Infernal Tiger lineage lacked a Demon Emperor, it was uncertain who the true ruler of the tiger demons would be. As for why they couldn’t produce a Demon Emperor, that was simply because Infernal Tigers were less intelligent than the Golden Tiger lineage.

The host's high-pitched voice rang out. "Both squads, prepare!"

On the Shrek Squad's side, Du Bai took out an array disc and quickly activated it. Unlike the other two arrays, this one had a visible manifestation. Instantly, a faint golden light spread on the ground, transforming into an array of patterns that emitted golden rays. The eyes of the five members of the Shrek Squad brightened.

The five of them stood in a line: Wu Bingji in the front, Tang San in second position, Du Bai third, Gu Li fourth, and Cheng Zicheng at the back. They appeared as a unified whole.

At the same time, on the opposite side, black currents rose from the five Infernal Tigers, creating a dense black cloud above their heads. The terrifying aura spread through the air, and under the large black canopy, the darkness element in the entire Great Beast Fighting Arena instantly became more concentrated.

The Darkness Domain!

This was a special ability unique to the Infernal Tigers. Within the domain, the concentration of the darkness element increased. The degree of this increment naturally depended on the user’s cultivation. At this moment, the Darkness Domain cast by five Infernal Tigers at the eighth order and above increased the concentration of the darkness element around them by at least thirty percent.

More importantly, within the Darkness Domain, the overall combat power of the Infernal Tigers would increase significantly. This was the truly terrifying part. The only issue was that the Darkness Domain's coverage was limited, only a thirty-meter radius around the Infernal Tiger casting it. Of course, maintaining the domain also consumed a large amount of their bloodline power.

If one encountered an Infernal Tiger casting a Darkness Domain in the outside world, the first reaction should be to flee the battlefield. Fighting an Infernal Tiger within its Darkness Domain was no different from seeking death. But the limited space in the Great Beast Fighting Arena was perfect for the Infernal Tigers' Darkness Domain. This was the reason the Infernal Tiger Squad was hailed as one of the teams most likely to achieve a ten-win streak. Their Darkness Domain made them almost invincible in the arena.

As the black aura surged, the Shrek Squad appeared insignificant under the massive pressure, like a looming dark cloud. Only the golden patterns provided by the array discs beneath them and the previously unseen formation they adopted appeared somewhat peculiar.

"Begin!" the announcer shouted, declaring the start of the match.

The five Infernal Tigers of the Infernal Tiger Squad simultaneously let out a long roar toward the sky.

The thrilling tiger roars echoed throughout the Great Beast Fighting Arena, causing spectators with lesser bloodlines to feel weak. This was the oppressive power of the King of Beasts.

The five Infernal Tigers, shrouded in the Darkness Domain, charged straight toward the Shrek Squad. The terrifying aura rose instantly, and within the dense cloud of darkness element, a layer of purple-black light rippled around their bodies.

"Unite!" Tang San shouted in a deep voice.

In an instant, halos of different colors rose from the five members of the Shrek Squad. Wu Bingji's was white, Tang San's was green, Du Bai's was white, Gu Li's was a faint, twisted white, and Cheng Zicheng's was golden.

The energy fluctuations brought by five different bloodlines surged forward, converging into Wu Bingji.

The originally white halo around Wu Bingji instantly turned ice blue. His eyes gleamed with blue light, and his pupils appeared like two blue crystals. His aura also surged dramatically.

At this moment, Wu Bingji felt the energy transmitted from behind him undergo a particular transformation and filtration, completely integrating into his bloodline. The vast bloodline power surged like a mighty river, instantly boosting his cultivation. Not only that, but his spiritual power also became immediately apparent and strong, and his perception surged. He even felt as if he had reached a unique critical point, sensing the call of another world.

This was the power of the third array disc, the Spirit Fusion Array!

This was the power of the five of them merged into one!

They waited until this battle to use this array disc because Du Bai and Gu Li's cultivation was a bit weaker previously, making it difficult for them to integrate with their higher-level teammates. This significantly increased the chances of the Spirit Fusion Array failing.

This time, with everyone's cultivation levels improved and Wu Bingji's bloodline refined, they could better integrate their energy into the array disc.

And thus, the Spirit Fusion Array made its debut on the battlefield.

Under the effect of this array, the five people's powers were combined into one. It was not a perfect integration, but even so, most of their bloodline power was poured into Wu Bingji.

If Tang San were to lead the Spirit Fusion Array, it would undoubtedly be a different story. However, he believed that Wu Bingji, who had considerably improved his control over the ice element as of late, could handle it well enough. More importantly, for Wu Bingji, this was a perfect training opportunity.
