Floating beside him, soul rings shimmered. His Earth Dragon King martial soul let out a roar, radiating a pressure unique to the land itself.
The final member was a support-type Soul Master, with three soul rings circling around her, though her martial soul was not visible. No one could tell what kind of support she provided.
Below the stage, the watching students' faces were already alight with excitement.
Tang Wulin moved—yes, Tang Wulin. His evolved martial soul, the Blue Silver Emperor, rapidly spread out beneath his feet, carpeting a wide area. At the same time, his third soul ring lit up.
Then, everyone saw the golden markings on his vines glow even brighter as they silently disappeared into the ground.
Wu Siduo and Xu Yucheng had never seen Tang Wulin in action. When it comes to the unknown, humans are instinctively wary—and they were no exception. Both of them subconsciously slowed their steps.
'Opening with a third soul skill? Isn't he afraid of exhausting his soul power?'
At the same time, behind Tang Wulin, Xu Xiaoyan moved. Her hands formed a strange seal in front of her, thumbs hooked together, left-hand fingers pointed up, right-hand fingers pointed down. Instantly, a massive star staff appeared behind her.
Starlight Burst!
Yes, Xu Xiaoyan activated her ten-thousand-year soul skill.
The star staff shone brilliantly. Beams of silver light erupted from it, quickly gathering and transforming into clusters of meteors. The silver meteors shot outward in all directions, charging toward Wu Siduo and Xu Yucheng to intercept them.
'She used her ultimate move right off the bat?'
Wu Siduo and Xu Yucheng frowned slightly.
Wu Siduo's eyes flashed. Her body suddenly accelerated—reaching her peak speed in an instant. So what if it was a third soul skill? 'The more skilled you are, the bolder you can be.' She didn't care at all.
Nether Thrust! It instantly boosted her speed, attack, and physical defense. It was just her first soul skill, but in Wu Siduo's hands, it always delivered stunning results.
Xu Yucheng moved as well. His body left behind a string of afterimages as he too surged forward at explosive speed. His massive Dark Demon Scythe appeared in his hands, glowing with a sinister dark-purple light as he hoisted it onto his shoulder.
The silver meteors were scattered by their powerful soul forces. But a ten-thousand-year soul skill was no joke—both of them suffered internal injuries despite deflecting the attacks.
Meanwhile, Tang Wulin's Blue Silver Emperor vines would occasionally burst from the ground to harass them.
But their charge continued. They were determined to power through both ultimate moves to kill Xu Xiaoyan.
Just then, Xie Xie, who had been standing at the rear, finally moved. With a faint blur, he dashed horizontally, Light Dragon Dagger in hand, targeting the undying Xu Yucheng.
Gu Yue moved at the same time as Xie Xie. All three of her soul rings lit up at once—Elemental Tide, Elemental Control, Elemental Fusion. Her mastery over elements surged to its peak.
A brilliant holy light burst from her hands, landing directly on Xu Yucheng.
Xu Yucheng's body trembled mid-charge. The dark-purple glow surrounding him dimmed. Under the shine of that holy light, his speed dropped, and his soul pressure weakened noticeably.
If Le Zhengyu had been there, he would have been shocked to find that Gu Yue's holy light was strikingly similar to his own first soul skill. While it wasn't as strong as his, it mimicked about seventy to eighty percent of it.
Xu Yucheng's Dark Demon Scythe was undoubtedly of the darkness element—and light restrains darkness. Even if the light wasn't overwhelming, it was enough to suppress him.
That's when Xie Xie arrived.
Everyone's coordination was flawless, giving spectators outside the arena a feast for the eyes.
But on the other side, Wu Siduo had already reached Xu Xiaoyan. What could she do to defend?
Wu Siduo's claws snapped out, and Nether Thrust instantly transformed into Nether Hundred Claws, attacking from every direction, completely surrounding Xu Xiaoyan.
Roar!
Just in the nick of time, Gu You stepped in.
A phantom dragon head of purple light blitzed past Wu Siduo, swallowing her whole.
But Wu Siduo's figure flickered and vanished from the spot.
Purple-Gold Destruction Slash had missed.
Luo Guixing chuckled, "Wu Siduo, you owe me your life."
"Shut up!" Wu Siduo glared at him.
"Trying to do a good deed and get treated like crap, huh," Luo Guixing withdrew his smile.
He glanced toward his teammate in the distance. "Zheng Yiran, team up with me. You spread your poison cloud, and I'll teleport you out when it gets too risky."
"Alright!" Zheng Yiran knew her moment of vengeance had come.
Gu You had been briefly delayed. He casually tossed Yang Nianxia's massive body out of the arena.
Just as he turned to support his teammates—
Hroooaaar!
A dragon's roar exploded to his right. Gu You instinctively reacted, dragon might bursting from his body with waves of roaring echoes.
Yuetian froze in mid-air. His Dragon Claw trembled uncontrollably.
Seizing the moment, Gu You simply threw one punch—and sent Yuetian flying out of bounds.
Xie Xie was still dueling Xu Yucheng. With Gu Yue's holy light weakening Xu Yucheng, his combat effectiveness had dropped noticeably.
Xu Yucheng didn't take Xie Xie seriously. The Dark Demon Scythe in his hands flashed with dark-purple light, transforming into a web of blades that enveloped Xie Xie.
Xie Xie wasn't even his target—he just wanted to finish him off and move on to Gu Yue for payback.
But something unexpected happened.
Faced with the scythe, Xie Xie's body suddenly shifted like a phantom—it was Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track. At the same time, his Light Dragon Dagger glowed with radiant gold, sending out blades of light that slipped through the gaps in the scythe's attacks, striking toward Xu Yucheng.
Xu Yucheng's brows furrowed. He slammed the butt of his scythe into the ground and turned ghostlike himself. Unlike Xie Xie's soul skill, his agility came from pure body technique and insight.
He blinked and dodged continuously, adjusting the scythe's angle with every movement. He easily deflected the Light Dragon Blades while unleashing a crisscrossing net of dark-purple blades at Xie Xie.
Xie Xie stepped back swiftly.
He had already delayed long enough.
Now it was time for someone to finish it.
Dragon God's Wrath!
A terrifying sphere of destruction formed in Gu You's hands, infused with the power of extreme ice.
Purple light flooded everything—but that wasn't even the scariest part…
