Upon hearing their panicked discussions, Xu Sheng displayed a harmless smile and said, "Run? Didn't you say earlier that this place would become my grave? Leaving now would be quite a slap in the face, wouldn't it?"
With these words, the soul masters cursed inwardly, "If we don't leave, this will become our grave!"
Originally, they thought this guy was so young, at most a Soul Ancestor or Soul King, who knew he was an even more terrifying Soul Emperor!
That could be overlooked, but what's with his Soul Ring Configuration?
No Spirit Soul, but simply absorbing a hundred-thousand-year soul ring, doesn't that mean he has the power to easily kill a hundred-thousand-year soul beast?
Thinking of this, the cold sweat on their foreheads dripped even more profusely. They said cautiously, "Uh... Sir, this is all a misunderstanding, we were just joking earlier."
"That's right, although there was some minor friction, there's no way we could have murderous intentions against you, it was just a joke!"
"Sir, if we displeased you, we're willing to compensate..."
Xu Sheng's lips curled, "Is that really so?"
Seeing that he hadn't outright declined, the soul masters' faces lit up with joy...
As long as negotiation is possible, there's a chance of survival!
There wasn't a single ounce of courage to resist in their hearts; joking aside, the sheer oppressive force immobilized them!
The middle-aged man at the front said fawningly, "It's really like that, sir, would you consider letting us..."
Before he could finish, Xu Sheng interrupted, "Letting you go so easily seems a bit too lenient, doesn't it?"
Upon hearing this, the soul masters suddenly realized and said eagerly, "We understand! We understand!"
The next moment, they immediately handed over several valuable items and a significant amount of federation coins to Xu Sheng!
Unknowingly, Xu Sheng glanced at them indifferently and said leisurely, "Just these? Compared to your lives, they seem insignificant!"
After his words fell, the pressure intensified again, making the entire space suffocate!
Realizing the dissatisfaction in his words, everyone's expressions turned grim...
However, under the absolute power of the other party, they had to grit their teeth and hand over everything they had left...
Xu Sheng pursed his thin lips and smiled, "Hmm, that's more like it, now hand over your Battle Armor, and you may leave!"
Upon hearing this, the soul masters in front widened their eyes, a hint of anger filling them...
"What?! Sir...this...isn't right! We've already given you our most valuable things!"
"Sir, you're being a bit unreasonable, still wanting us to hand over our Battle Armor, isn't that too much..."
They had already handed over their most precious items to this guy, yet the latter still wanted to take their Battle Armor!
Xu Sheng's expression suddenly turned cold, as he swung his Ice Rose Sword casually, a cold arc of killing intent cleaved through space, causing tremors and a crack to appear...
He said coldly, "You have no choice now; after all, if I kill you, I can still get these things!"
Faced with this blatant threat, the soul masters exchanged glances, hesitating, "What do we do? Really give him the Battle Armor?"
...
One of the male students opposite scoffed, "Insignificant skill!"
In the next second, his Second Soul Skill lit up underfoot...
Second Soul Skill, Helmet of Raging Flames!!
In an instant, his body was engulfed in fierce flames, and visibly, where the flames spread, a hard silver-glowing armor appeared out of thin air!
His entire body's ATK and defensive power were increased by twenty percent!
Immediately, with a thought, he sent a fist the size of a sandbag directly towards the incoming Blue Silver Grass, easily tearing it apart...
Just as he was smug, another student behind him exclaimed, "Careful! The Blue Silver Grass is just bait!!"
The first student's pupils shrank abruptly, feeling a deep sense of crisis rising in his heart, he rolled backward without hesitation...
"Bang!!!" An explosive sound echoed!
In the spot where he was just seconds ago, an ice ball emitting a bone-chilling cold crashed to the ground...
Without a doubt, had he escaped any later, that student might have been seriously injured!
Xie Xie's lips curled as he gripped his Light Dragon Dagger, "Tsk, it missed? I thought it would hit!"
Tang Wulin gave him a sideways glance, "Xie Xie, stop wasting time, let's go together, Gu Yue will handle rear support!"
With that, the two of them set their sights on the three students ahead and charged at high speed, clearly intending to press an attack!
Gu Yue, naturally understanding their intent, used Soul Power to alter the direction of the surrounding wind elements, stirring up a gusty wind in her vicinity...
It not only obscured some sightlines but also prevented her from being attacked if the opponents advanced!
Watching the stirring winds in the arena, one of the students opposite held up a hand to block and said, "Dammit! The class president's Martial Soul is too peculiar! We need to eliminate her first!"
The armored student next to him steeled his heart, gritting his teeth, "I'll take care of Tang Wulin and Xie Xie! You two go after the class president!"
Upon hearing this, the other two exchanged glances and nodded, "Okay!"
In the next moment, they ignored Tang Wulin and Xie Xie and charged straight at Gu Yue...
This scene darkened Xie Xie's face significantly, "They dare to ignore us, Wulin, they're clearly looking down on us!"
Tang Wulin replied coldly, "Since they underestimate us, they'll have to pay the price, let's go block them!"
However, as they turned to pursue, a student in armor blocked their path...
He said chillingly, "You'll never pass, your opponent is me!! Third Soul Skill, Berserk!!"
As long as he could hold off Tang Wulin and Xie Xie, and his companions took care of their class president, a three-on-two victory would be theirs!!
After his words fell, his body began to grow visibly, transforming into a massive figure in an instant!
Especially his black hair, now dyed deep red, his eyes fixated on Tang Wulin and Xie Xie, a hint of madness in them...
Tang Wulin furrowed his brows, thinking to himself, "Berserk, huh? That's a rare soul skill indeed!"
Though Berserk reduces a soul master's intellect, the boost in strength is terrifying!
Beside him, Xie Xie said gravely, "Wulin, what should we do?"
There was no denying that the student before them, once Berserk, was rather intimidating...
Tang Wulin glanced back at Gu Yue, who remained calm throughout, and said seriously, "Gu Yue's true strength surpasses ours, she should be able to handle it, let's take care of this guy quickly!"
