Soul Land 5: The Rebirth of Tang San Chapter 336: The Lion-Tiger Sword Saint

Chapter 336: The Lion-Tiger Sword Saint

Due to the low genetic compatibility, the chance of offspring being born between the lion demon race and the Ttiger demon race was only two percent. And of that two percent, nine out of ten died due to congenital conditions. Survivors who possessed both bloodlines were scarce.

The Lion-Tiger Sword Saint before them was one of those rare survivors.

However, having both bloodlines made him an outcast in both golden clans. He was not accepted by either; rather, he was rejected and called a half-breed. As he matured, his heart was constantly filled with hatred, yet it was precisely this hatred that allowed him to trudge on, step by step.

Thus, he came to the Great Beast Fighting Arena.

His cultivation was only at the seventh order when he first arrived at the Great Beast Fighting Arena. He spent a year achieving a hundred consecutive victories in solo beast fights, earning a noble title. His cultivation then reached the peak of the ninth order. He was a true undefeated warrior, carving out a legend with his heavy sword and his powerful dual golden bloodlines.

According to the Golden Lion and Golden Tiger clans, if he achieved godhood in the future, he would quickly rise and might even have the potential to become a Demon Emperor.

So, the two golden clans that once rejected him now tried to win him back. However, the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint despised them. He harbored only hatred for the clans that had given him his bloodlines. He preferred to stay in the Great Beast Fighting Arena, accumulating cultivation resources through continuous battles and competitions rather than returning to those clans. He chose to prove everything through slaughter, to achieve his path through killing, and he disdained his blood relatives. T/his chapter is updat/𝓮d by n𝒐v(ê(l)biin.c/o/m

From a young age, the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint had understood that he could only rely on himself and his own strength. All who stood against him would die at his hand, and this was Yu Xi’s fate as well. He provoked the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint and ended up slashed in half.

However, the Great Beast Fighting Arena was becoming less and less beneficial for his advancement. Having reached the peak of the ninth order, he was invincible here. His dual bloodlines, although powerful, proved to be an impediment as well. They created a bloodline barrier within him, making it extremely difficult to break through to godhood. It had been over a year since he reached the peak of the ninth order, and despite constant battles, he had made no further progress.

The Great Beast Fighting Arena suggested that team battles would provide a more substantial stimulus, so he agreed to participate in team battles. The arena arranged several strong fighters to team up with him. They achieved nine consecutive victories almost effortlessly. However, the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint was dissatisfied—these team battles offered no opportunity for advancement, and he realized that he had become a money-making tool for the arena.

Today was his last planned battle in the Great Beast Fighting Arena. After this fight, he would receive a large sum of money, and, combined with his noble status, he could go anywhere in the world. He was preparing to seek opportunities for further breakthroughs.

The information the Shrek Squad obtained described the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint as a mighty lion-tiger demon, an unprecedentedly terrifying entity. Even among his ninth-order peers, he was a true powerhouse that even demons with first-tier bloodlines would struggle to defeat. He was battle-hardened and proud; in his eyes, the only way was forward.

Yes, he was proud. He disdained coordinating with his so-called teammates in all the team battles he faced. He often relied on his heavy sword to end the battles within moments.

Thus, all the cheers from the stands were almost entirely for this undefeated warrior. Despite being a noble, he continued honing himself in the Great Beast Fighting Arena, earning the title of the strongest below godhood.

The Lion-Tiger Sword Saint’s teammates were not weak either. Although overshadowed by their captain’s brilliance, those who could team up with the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint were not ordinary.

Moreover, the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint’s four teammates shared a common trait: they were all illegitimate children from major clans.

Yes, illegitimate children. In the noble clans of the demon races, illegitimate children were not eligible for noble status. This was a regulation set by the Ancestral Court and a measure taken by the major demon clans to maintain the purity of their bloodlines.

Therefore, some powerful demon clans devised unique methods to enable their illegitimate offspring to gain noble status. Collaborating with the Great Beast Fighting Arena was the quickest and most direct way.

Ten team battle victories could earn noble status. How swift was that? Theoretically, one could obtain noble status in ten days.

Thus, when top-tier fighters appeared in the Great Beast Fighting Arena, the arena would offer them deals: they could be part of a team led by a top expert, secure victories, and earn themselves a title, all for the appropriate price. This was within the rules but carried risks, including death. Therefore, those wishing to gain noble status through this method needed a certain level of competence.

The Lion-Tiger Sword Saint’s four teammates had all gained their positions this way.

The Aetherhorn Deer Demon King held the Shrek Squad in high regard. Therefore, when selecting their opponents, he specifically asked them whether they preferred to face a team led by the mighty Lion-Tiger Sword Saint or a well-coordinated team with equally strong members.

The latter obviously couldn’t have a fighter as outstanding as the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint, but their coordination would be troublesome. The biggest issue with the former was that the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint had never had a problem wiping out an entire team alone.

Tang San chose the former.

Thus, the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint appeared before them. His four teammates were also strong: three were at the eighth order, and one was at the early ninth order. They were all from different races.

The cheers were deafening, all for the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint. The Lion-Tiger Sword Saint had countless fans in the Great Beast Fighting Arena. He was even considered the most desirable match for young women of both the Lion and Tiger clans.

The Lion-Tiger Sword Saint ignored the cheers, glancing silently at the opponents before slowly closing his eyes. To him, it didn’t matter who the opponents were; defeating and killing them was all that mattered. Then, he would continue on his path.

His thoughts had already flown out of Kali City into the outside world. He constantly searched for a path to godhood and believed he would find it. He wanted to prove to the two golden clans that he, a hybrid, was far stronger than their so-called pure-blooded members. He intended to repay all the insults of his childhood one by one.

The two golden clans’ attempts to win him over were laughable to him. They tried to remind him that he was a member of the clan, not knowing that the only thing he felt for them was loathing rather than belonging.

“Alright, everyone, it’s time for today’s grand showdown! Surely everyone has been anticipating this for a long time. One side is destined to rise in today’s battle, while the other’s destination is dust. The Shrek Squad is hailed as the hope of humanity and has fought its way through nine battles, stepping over the bodies of many strong enemies. Now, they stand on this tenth and final battleground! And the Unbeatable Squad—yes, our very own Unbeatable Squad—is also here to continue its string of victories! The Lion-Tiger Sword Saint, unbeatable—” By the end of his introduction, the commentator was shouting frantically.
