With a command from Yu Tianheng, except for Ye Lingling and the Shi brothers protecting her, the other four members charged recklessly into the enemy ranks.
"Foolish tactics!"
Dai Wei Si snorted coldly. The Emperor Battle team didn't have any amplification support soul masters. To rush headlong into their side and be surrounded by seven people was no different from seeking death.
"Encircle them!"
Dai Wei Si also gave his order. Under the amplification of their auxiliary soul master, the six Star Luo team members immediately surrounded the four from the Emperor Battle Team.
"Third soul skill, Jade Scale Violet Poison!"
Dugu Yan wasn't afraid of being surrounded; group battles were her specialty.
When the terrifying poison mist spread, even if she held back and didn't use lethal poison, the opponents would still suffer as their organs felt corroded from the toxins.
"Fourth soul skill, Mirror Space!"
At that moment, the mirror-reflection soul master used his spatial soul skill, absorbing all of Dugu Yan's poison mist.
Star Luo had prepared for how to deal with Dugu Yan.
Outside the arena, Tianlin smiled slightly. Did they think they could restrain Sister Yan like this? They were overthinking it. Although her poison mist was absorbed, it wasn't gone—just trapped within that mirror space.
But after all, that was only a fourth soul skill, with limited space. How much could he absorb? Dugu Yan's poison was terrifying—absorb too much, and it might even corrode the space itself.
"Jade Scale Ice-Fire Poison!"
Dugu Yan had the same thought as Tianlin. She wanted to see how much poison the other side could take.
Dai Weisi wasn't sure how long the mirror could hold, so he had to finish the fight quickly. As captain, his opponent was naturally Yu Tianheng, the captain of the Emperor Battle Team.
"White Tiger Fierce Light Wave!"
Dai Wei Si's light wave was thicker and emitted a darker light than Dai Mubai's. The skill reflected his heart: far darker than Dai Mubai's.
"Thunder Dragon Claw!"
Yu Tianheng blocked the wave with both hands, smiling easily, "Is this strength supposed to tickle me?"
Provoked, Dai Wei Si remained calm and changed his move: "Fierce Light Cutting Line!"
This was a self-created soul skill, a modified version of the White Tiger Fierce Light Wave, compressing soul power into a thin, tough line. If the regular wave was like a stick, now it was a fine, durable line—less coverage, but significantly higher attack power.
"Self-created soul skill, not bad."
Yu Tianheng didn't dare take such an attack head-on either, but he wasn't flustered. Dodging the attack, he began gathering thunder and lightning in his right arm, "Try mine: Xiao Tian's personally taught, self-created skill—Infinite Electric Light!"
As Yu Tianheng punched, a huge, electricity-filled sphere sped toward Dai Weisi.
The Fierce Light Cutting Line couldn't block such concentrated soul power. It was like rock-paper-scissors—if Thunder Dragon Claw and Fierce Light Wave were both papers, Dai Weisi turned paper into scissors to gain the upper hand.
Now, Yu Tianheng turned paper into a fist, regaining the advantage.
This Infinite Electric Light was inspired by Tianlin's Five Spirit Immortal Techniques and taught to Yu Tianheng.
Bang!
Dai Weisi was struck by the thunderball and knocked to the edge of the arena, his body wrapped in lightning, limbs paralyzed.
"Beautiful strike!"
Yu Yuanzhen exclaimed joyfully—his grandson had surprised him again.
"Well done. As expected of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon heir. I underestimated you."
Dai Weisi clapped as he leaped back to the center—he had already recovered.
"Because of that auxiliary soul master?"
Tianlin noticed the Star Luo auxiliary soul master had been boosting Dai Weisi, who now had Soul King-level strength, much stronger than Yu Tianheng—no wonder his recovery was so quick.
"So what if you have support? If one punch isn't enough, I'll use two. Second soul skill, Thunderous Might!"
"Third soul skill, White Tiger Shocking Earthquake!"
Just as Yu Tianheng pressed his advantage, Dai Weisi suddenly pressed both hands to the ground, causing it to ripple like waves. Yu Tianheng lost balance and missed his attack.
"Your strength is decent, but without amplification, you aren't my opponent."
Dai Weisi walked over as if on flat ground.
"Yu Tianheng, you look like a clown stumbling before me—ridiculous."
"I'll end your performance. White Tiger Erupts from the Earth!"
Like before, Dai Weisi changed up the White Tiger Shocking Earthquake, causing countless giant rocks to erupt and trap Yu Tianheng.
"White Tiger Meteor—Crush!"
An alternate-world version of Planetary Devastation instantly trapped Yu Tianheng.
"So many self-created skills—Dai Weisi isn't just high-level, but his real combat is very strong."
On Shrek Academy's side, Flender sincerely praised.
Ning Rongrong nodded. Though she despised Dai Weisi's character, she had to admit he was diligent—much more so than Dai Mubai.
She'd never seen Dai Mubai spend time researching soul skills. If he disdained skills and focused on soul power cultivation, that was one thing—since power is the foundation—but instead, he wasted his time in debauchery. How could he ever catch up to Dai Weisi?
Thinking Yu Tianheng was finished, Dai Weisi looked back at the others. Except for Dugu Yan, who was dueling the mirror-reflection soul master, Oslo and Yu Feng were both being double-teamed.
Dugu Yan's poison was too fearsome, even though most was absorbed. The area around her was still too dangerous for anyone to approach, so Star Luo decided to save her for last.
"White Tiger Fierce Light Wave!"
But Dai Weisi didn't care about Dugu Yan's poison, as he had ranged attacks.
Just as he was about to attack, the White Tiger Meteor prison suddenly shook.
"Don't touch her! Fourth soul skill, Blue Lightning Divine Dragon Charge!"
A lightning dragon broke free—Yu Tianheng had completed his dragon transformation, and his attack greatly increased. After breaking out, he kept up his assault, using Blue Lightning Divine Dragon Charge again against Dai Weisi.
Using dragon transformation plus the fourth soul skill was powerful but consumed a lot of soul power. Dai Weisi didn't plan to go head-to-head, wanting to wear Yu Tianheng down first.
But soon, he noticed something was wrong—Yu Tianheng seemed to use the skill endlessly, quickly forcing him into a corner.
Not just him, but with time, the other battlefields also started to shift.
The mirror-reflection soul master was drenched in cold sweat—his space was nearly overloaded with poison mist, but Dugu Yan just kept spewing venom as if her soul power was endless.
Yu Feng and Oslo, while not chaining soul skills, fought desperately, trading injuries and fighting crazier as the battle wore on.
This was the riot tactic Yu Tianheng had just declared!
In reality, it was Star Luo being worn out. As time passed, their stamina and soul power drained just as fast as Emperor Battle Team's—but Emperor Battle Team had something they didn't.
The world's number one healing martial soul: Nine-Hearted Begonia. With Ye Lingling present, until her power was exhausted, Emperor Battle Team was an undying perpetual motion machine!
