This time, the one who intervened was none other than Jin Mian.
Before he could speak.
He heard Xie Yue's warning: "Yan, be careful!"
As soon as Yan turned his head, he saw Ye Lingling rapidly closing in on him.
Launching a torrential, storm-like assault against him.
Yan initially thought, a mere Support-type Soul Master engaging in close-quarters combat with him, a powerful Attack-type Battle Soul Master.
Was simply seeking death.
He could subdue her in minutes.
But after just a few exchanges, he sensed something was wrong.
Despite Ye Lingling's outwardly frail and delicate appearance,
Her strength was no weaker than that of an ordinary Battle Soul Master.
Especially her exquisite footwork and fist techniques; even he, a Spirit King, could only defend passively for the moment.
"Damn it! I refuse to believe that I, a dignified Attack-type Spirit King, can be defeated by a mere Support-type."
Yan erupted with power once more, attempting to counterattack.
Unexpectedly.
In that very instant, Ye Lingling seized an opening.
With a technique that used minimal force to deflect a powerful attack, she flung Yan away.
She even stepped forward to deliver an additional kick.
Heavily striking his abdomen.
Yan's face was full of disbelief as he pointed at Ye Lingling and asked, "Aren't you a Support-type Soul Master? Why are you so good at fighting?"
"What's wrong with being a Support-type Soul Master?"
"Who said Support-type Soul Masters can't fight?"
Ye Lingling spoke in the most placid, cool tone.
These words directly short-circuited Yan's brain.
Holy crap.
This isn't what the teachers taught in class!
Those theory teachers in class clearly said.
The role of a Support-type Soul Master in a team.
Has only one purpose.
That is support.
They possess absolutely no offensive capabilities whatsoever.
During battle, they must rely entirely on their teammates' protection.
So why is it different with Ye Lingling?
She can fight and heal, not at all weaker than any Battle Soul Master.
And you're telling me this is f***ing a Support-type Soul Master?
That's bullshit!
Not just him.
Yue Guan, who had been closely watching Ye Lingling from the spectator stands,
Was also shocked by the scene just now.
Excited, he repeatedly patted Gui Mei and said, "Old Ghost, did you see that? Did you see that?"
"Ye Lingling, who clearly has no offensive Martial Soul Abilities, actually possesses such skill."
"Quick, hit me, let me see if I'm dreaming."
Gui Mei showed no courtesy whatsoever.
He gave Yue Guan a punch.
*Thud!*
"Well? Are you dreaming?" Gui Mei didn't forget to ask after punching.
Yue Guan rubbed his back, grimacing in pain, and said, "You devil, why did you hit so hard?"
Gui Mei innocently spread his hands: "Didn't you ask me to hit you? You said you wanted to see if you were dreaming. If I don't hit hard, how would you know if you're dreaming or not?"
"I, you..." Yue Guan was left speechless.
Because he felt that what this devil said made perfect sense.
Completely irrefutable.
Helpless, he could only swallow his anger.
He changed the subject back to Ye Lingling: "This Ye Lingling is really becoming more and more suitable to be my disciple."
"Not to mention, both our Martial Souls are Immortal Herb-type plant Martial Souls!"
"The key is, I really like this little girl's personality."
"Tell me, if I go beg the young master to let Ye Lingling become my disciple, would he agree?"
Gui Mei directly shook his head: "I advise you not to even think about it. The young master definitely won't let her go."
"Then tell me, if I offer something in return, could I succeed?" Yue Guan still wouldn't give up.
Gui Mei looked at Yue Guan with a strange gaze and asked, "What could you possibly offer?"
Yue Guan thought for a moment and said, "What do you think about my... charms?"
"..."
These words directly rendered Gui Mei speechless.
Note: Gui Mei wasn't contemplating; he simply didn't know what to say.
After a long while, he replied: "If you're not afraid of the High Priest's sword, the Second Consecrator's fists, and the strength of the other five Consecrators, then go ahead and say it. But remember, this has nothing to do with me."
"Uh... forget it then."
Yue Guan gave up without a second thought.
Indeed, he had been somewhat reckless.
Taking a disciple was important, but his own life was even more important.
Back on the arena.
Seeing that he hadn't managed to subdue a woman after such a long time,
Yan immediately felt his pride was hurt.
Without further consideration, he directly prepared to use his fifth Spirit Ability.
Who would have thought.
The moment his Soul Ring lit up, he was sent flying by a punch from Jin Mian.
He fell to the ground, unable to get up again.
Then Jin Mian arrived beside Ye Lingling and looked towards Hu Liena and Xie Yue: "Next, two versus two, fairer that way."
