Chapter 52: Even If I Carry the God Realm on My Back and Hold the Douluo Continent in One Hand, I, Ye Yu, Am Still Invincible!

After leaving the Nine Heart Begonia family, Ye Yu didn't return to the Dugu Mansion right away.

Instead, he wandered through Heaven Dou Imperial City, intending to buy a mask.

Because later that night, he planned to head to the Heaven Dou Great Spirit Arena to participate in a soul battle.

However, he had no intention of fighting under the name Ye Yu, or using the Blue Silver Spirit Jade Vine spirit.

Instead, he planned to take on a new identity, relying solely on a fine iron spear from the blacksmith's shop and his powerful physique to participate in the battle.

That way, he would be able to challenge himself properly and feel real pressure, which could lead to a breakthrough.

If he used his Blue Silver Spirit Jade Vine, it would be too imbalanced:

Against weak opponents, his vines would be almost unbreakable—immune to ice and fire, immune to lightning, extremely tenacious, and would regenerate instantly when cut.

Against strong opponents who could break through the vines, he might be instantly defeated in a direct clash.

Neither outcome would be suitable for training!

Of course, Ye Yu would still continue practicing and mastering the Blue Silver Spirit Jade Vine, but...

As for who to spar with?

Naturally, it would be the soul beasts of Sunset Forest, and his beloved Grandpa Dugu Bo!

> "These masks... none of them are good enough!"

Ye Yu tried on several, but felt none of them worked well.

They could hide his face, yes—but not his hairstyle, which stood out too much.

His vitality was so immense that even his hair had become extremely glossy and lustrous.

He was genuinely worried that someone might recognize him just by that.

After thinking carefully, Ye Yu concluded—

A full-coverage helmet was the best solution!

Even better, he might as well buy a full suit of armor.

He could wear just the helmet for concealment, while also buying weighted training gear to disguise his body and boost his training.

Weights on his arms, legs, and torso would:

Alter his body shape,

Help with combat training,

And enhance his physical endurance.

Later, if necessary, he could don the full armor in battle.

It was the perfect plan!

---

Accompanied by Dugu Yan, Ye Yu visited a high-end boutique armor shop, choosing the most handsome, domineering, and popular armor set available.

He didn't hesitate—he bought it for 100,000 gold soul coins!

To be honest, Ye Yu felt a little pain in his wallet at that price.

In the past, he never had that much money.

But thanks to the 1 million gold soul coins he won from Yu Tianheng, he now had funds to spare.

After all, it was money won for free.

So Ye Yu turned into a rich man overnight, splurging without remorse.

> (PS: Yu Tianheng, who had been dragged back to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and was being scolded by his grandfather Yu Yuanzhen and father Yu Dalong, cried with grief: "My New Year's money that I saved for years… Wuwuwu! o(╥﹏╥)o")

After buying the armor, Ye Yu also purchased a training weight set:

High-quality arm, leg, and torso weights

Made of durable earth dragon skin and black iron plates

---

By nightfall, Ye Yu had changed into black tight clothing, strapped on the weights to disguise his physique, hid the Jade Dragon Bracelet under his sleeve, and put on his helmet.

He then headed toward the Heaven Dou Great Spirit Arena, entering separately from Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling.

The Heaven Dou Great Spirit Arena stood like an inverted bowl on the ground, towering hundreds of meters high.

It had four main entrances, each with long stairways to help funnel the endless streams of visitors toward different plazas.

The building was grand and awe-inspiring.

Even though Ye Yu looked rather strange with his helmet and weighted attire, many soul masters preferred to keep their identities hidden, too.

Hooded cloaks, black robes, and masks were common.

In such a place, Ye Yu didn't stand out at all.

---

After climbing the stairs, Ye Yu entered the spacious interior of the Great Spirit Arena.

The grand hall was packed with surging crowds:

Soul masters preparing for battles,

And spectators eagerly waiting to watch.

Following the signs, Ye Yu soon arrived at a registration counter.

After a short wait in line, he approached the counter and spoke in a deliberately low, hoarse voice:

> "I want to register for soul fighting."

> "Certainly, sir."

> "Please fill out your personal information."

The female staff member smiled professionally. She didn't react oddly to Ye Yu's strange outfit. She just handed over a registration form.

The form required:

Name (codename allowed)

Gender

Spirit

Spirit power level

Place of origin

Only the spirit power level required verification.

The rest could be filled in freely.

For his name, Ye Yu chose "An Lan".

> In that world, An Lan could carry the sky on his back and lift the imperial city with one hand. If he was undefeated, then I, Ye Yu, will carry the God Realm on my back and lift the Douluo Continent with one hand—and be invincible!

As for the rest:

Gender: Male

Spirit: Spear

Spirit power level: 32

(Though Ye Yu's physical fitness already rivaled a Soul Emperor, for the purpose of soul fighting, he still needed to account for spirit possession and soul skills. Best to start conservatively and test the waters.)

Ye Yu filled in the form and paid the 10 gold soul coin entry fee.

He received his Iron-Level Soul Badge.

> "Dear Mr. An Lan, this is the area to register for individual battles."

The smiling staff member pointed him toward the next station.

Ye Yu walked over and queued up.

---

After waiting more than ten minutes, it was finally Ye Yu's turn.

He handed over his Iron Badge and completed registration.

He was assigned to Arena 12.

As Ye Yu followed the staff into the arena, Dugu Yan, who had been quietly observing him, revealed a bright, expectant smile on her beautiful face.

She tugged on Ye Lingling's hand and said excitedly, "Let's go!"

The two girls bought tickets and found seats in the twelfth arena's audience section.

Meanwhile, Ye Yu was led to the contestant rest area.

The spacious rest area was filled with rows of benches and many soul masters preparing for their matches.

From time to time, the soul announcement system would call out names.

Once a soul master's name was called, they would head down the contestant channel to enter the arena.

If someone didn't wish to rest, they could enter the lounge area to watch other matches via a viewing corridor.

> Note: In the earlier drafts, the spear was said to be forged in a blacksmith shop. It has since been revised to indicate it was purchased directly.
