Chapter 98 A Match with Successive Reversals
When Xiao Hongchen was locked in the isolated soul tool, he also experienced a series of soul tool protection and soul tool shield activations, but in the end he could not withstand Ling Luochen's exhaustion and was ultimately frozen into an ice sculpture by Ling Luochen in a very miserable way. This reserve captain became the most miserable one as soon as he entered the field.
Even if Xiao Hongchen's strength as a fourth-level cultivator was strong, he couldn't possibly remain undefeated against the combined forces of Su Yu, Wang Dong, and Ling Luochen. It can only be said that if the referee hadn't rescued him quickly and Ling Luochen hadn't taken the initiative, Xiao Hongchen would have been reduced to a pile of ice shards long ago.
Ma Rulong shouted, and a black helmet appeared on his head. In the middle of his forehead was a red gem. A dark red light shot out from the ruby and rushed directly towards Bei Bei, who was still fighting with Xiao Xiafeng.
"Be careful, Beibei!"
Xu Sanshi acted decisively, immediately using the Xuanming Replacement to switch Beibei with him. A dark red light slammed into Xu Sanshi's Xuanming Tortoise Shell Shield, the immense force sending Xu Sanshi sliding backward on the ground, about to fly off the stage.
Seeing that things were going badly, Beibei was about to step forward to catch Xu Sanshi when the bracelet on Ma Rulong's wrist suddenly shattered. The bright white light also knocked Beibei back, and the two figures flew backward in an instant.
Beibei was alright, only managing to repel the bracelet, while Xu Sanshi was constantly attacked by the dark red figure, and in an instant, Xu Sanshi had already retreated to the edge of the arena.
Su Yu also prepared to use Tang Sect hidden weapons to intercept Ma Rulong's attack, but the soul tool's methods were completely unable to break through Ma Rulong's soul tool protective shield.
Su Yu slowly raised his hand, and an iron box resembling a crossbow appeared on his right wrist. With a series of assembly sounds, a modified Zhuge Repeating Crossbow appeared in Su Yu's hand.
A dozen crossbow bolts were fired directly in the direction of Ma Rulong, but Su Yu miscalculated. The three of them were still inside the soul tool, and no attack could penetrate the soul tool shield.
Although more than a dozen Zhuge Repeating Crossbow bolts pierced through the soul guide device, their power had been greatly reduced and they were unable to penetrate Ma Rulong's soul guide shield. In the end, they fell helplessly to the ground.
Despite Bei Bei's help, Xu Sanshi was still knocked off the stage by Ma Rulong, and the situation on the stage returned to four against three.
Having learned from Lin Xi and Mika's experience, the Sun and Moon team chose to suppress from a distance, giving Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng no chance to get close. If they did get close, they would be attacked by all four of them.
The situation quickly became deadlocked, and Ling Luochen felt a little nervous looking at it.
"Su Yu, you're the captain now. What do you think we should do?"
Four against three isn't so bad. If Bei Bei, whose cultivation is slightly weaker, is also eliminated, and they still can't get out, then it's basically a declaration of their failure.
Sure enough, the outcome of a battle can be decided in an instant.
"Don't worry, senior, let me give it a try."
A golden carving knife appeared in Su Yu's right hand without warning. Holding the knife, Su Yu stood in front of the level seven soul tool and began carving as if he were engraving a soul tool array.
This bizarre action became a complete joke in the eyes of the Sun and Moon Team members. Meng Hongchen asked in bewilderment, "Is he planning to use the carving knife to chisel through our soul guide?"
The more stalemate the situation becomes, the more advantageous it is for the Sun and Moon Team. When Ma Rulong started using the golden level-seven soul tool, Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng realized the danger. If Su Yu and the other two could not break through the barrier of the soul tool, this battle would really depend on the difference in soul power between the two sides. However, judging from the current situation, it is highly likely that they will lose!
Even Huo Yuhao, sitting in the audience, clenched his fists nervously and asked excitedly, "Teacher Wang, are we really going to lose?"
In Wang Yan's strategy, although he was prepared to give up in the first match, after seeing the strength of the Sun and Moon team, he no longer believed that he could win the subsequent individual elimination matches and the 2-2-3 strategy.
The suspense is too great; there's simply no way to make a judgment!
"Yuhao, since you've all nominated Su Yu as captain, you should trust him!"
This time, Wang Yan wavered. He didn't know if he could really win this match. Even Elder Xuan in the audience put down his chicken leg and stared intently at the arena.
Is it really going to be a loss?
Wang Yan's heart trembled slightly, and without realizing it, he clenched his fists, his body shaking slightly.
Elder Yi once said that the Blade of Judgment can grant and take away the power of life, so let me test how long this level seven soul tool can withstand the Blade of Judgment.
As the Blade of Judgment continued to fall, the soul tool that separated the three people also began to disintegrate.
"Captain, our soul tool is disintegrating for some unknown reason!" a member of the Sun and Moon team exclaimed in surprise.
"This is impossible! Even a seventh-ring Soul Saint couldn't break through our soul tool. Could that third-ring Soul Master be a Soul Douluo?!"
Even Ma Rulong was taken aback. Although he didn't know why, he quickly regained his composure. Despite his shock, the group didn't reveal any weaknesses and continued to wear down Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng.
"This, how is this possible?" Ling Luochen covered his lips with his fair, jade-like fingers, his eyes filled with astonishment.
This young guy, who is recognized by everyone as the captain, really did it!
The soul tool shattered, and Ling Luochen and his two companions joined the battle!
"Holy crap, Ma Rulong, you bastard! Referee, help me!"
Bei Bei frantically cried for help as she fled for her life, and was eventually rescued by Tian Sha Douluo.
It turned out that just as the soul tool disintegrated and the three were freed, Bei Bei's momentary distraction allowed Ma Rulong to seize the opportunity and use the golden level-seven soul tool. Knowing that she couldn't dodge, Bei Bei immediately asked the referee for help.
Five against four seems advantageous, but in reality, a disadvantageous situation has already begun to emerge.
As time dragged on, Ma Xiaotao's inner fire began to rise continuously, showing signs of becoming uncontrollable. Dai Yueheng's soul power was also greatly depleted, and his face turned pale.
The opposing Sun and Moon team wasn't in much better shape. The four of them were already struggling to hold their ground, and now, after such a long period of attrition, they were starting to run out of soul power.
However, the soul tools possessed by the four opponents and the strength they could unleash were far beyond what the five, who were currently in poor condition, could compare to.
Just when both sides were locked in a stalemate, Ma Rulong finally breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they continued to stall, they could win the game.
He noticed that the two Soul Emperors attacking from the opposite side were starting to show signs of distress, especially the female Soul Emperor in red, whose aura was becoming disordered, as if she was trying her best to suppress something.
"Senior Dai Yueheng, use your sixth soul skill to attack Ma Rulong on the other side! Senior Xiao Tao, provide cover for Senior Dai's attack!"
The blinding blades converged in the air, creating a terrifying light, and the White Tiger Soul Emperor's sixth soul skill, White Tiger Annihilation Kill, appeared instantly.
The Heavenly Fiend Douluo, who was monitoring the match, flashed onto the arena. Even with Dai Yueheng's attack, he couldn't be sure if his opponent could withstand the blow.
After all, this is the final, and his interference in the match could very well affect the entire course of the game. But something almost went wrong just now; if someone were to die this time, it would be really difficult to explain.
After all, every member of both the Sun and Moon Team and the Shrek Team can be described as a prodigy!
This also concerns the reputation of the Star Luo Empire. As a referee, being unable to prevent casualties will inevitably have a negative impact on the Star Luo Empire as the host.
However, in the brief moment of his hesitation, Dai Yueheng's attack had already landed.
Dai Yueheng was also frustrated. He had thought it would be a thrilling battle, but apart from Mika at the beginning, it turned into a war of attrition.
As a powerful offensive Soul Emperor, he managed to achieve this situation. Not only Dai Yueheng, but even Ma Xiaotao was frustrated.
Two important matches in a row. In the last team battle, it was Su Yu's sudden burst that broke the deadlock and turned the tide, interrupting the long-term amplification and breaking the opponent's defense. In this match, it was Su Yu who solved the control of the soul tool, reflected the opponent's flash cannon, and blocked the opponent's fatal blow that interfered with the vision.
What's more, this is the final round, with his father and the Emperor watching from the city walls. As a Soul Emperor, he was being watched by a Soul Venerable who played a more important role than him time and time again. The frustration was indescribable.
Because he was holding his breath, he unleashed his full power in this White Tiger Annihilation Strike. With the referee present, he didn't even consider whether he would kill his opponent.
Just as the terrifying soul skill was about to collide with him, Meng Hongchen's invincible shield didn't even have time to light up. When Dai Yueheng's attack landed on Meng Hongchen, he could clearly feel several powerful attacks landing around him.
Ma Xiaotao wasn't idle either. She had initially chosen to dodge, but how could this warlike person give up such a great opportunity? A loud phoenix cry rang out, and the blazing evil fire phoenix spread its wings, directly choosing to confront the three people's attacks head-on.
Therefore, Meng Hongchen, as a Soul Master, was still unable to hold out against Dai Yueheng at the crucial moment. When the White Tiger Annihilation Strike descended upon Meng Hongchen, a trigger-type Soul Guidance Shield appeared, just like that of Xiao Hongchen.
As the white tiger's claws flashed, Meng Hongchen's body seemed to radiate a strong light, and a ball of light appeared around her, perfectly protecting her.
The White Tiger Annihilation Strike landed completely on the liquid in an instant.
Dai Yueheng's attack was terrifying. The wildly rampant sharp aura reached its peak in an instant. Meng Hongchen's body, along with the ball of light, trembled violently and was sent flying, crashing heavily off the stage.
The Sun and Moon team has eliminated another player!
Looking at Meng Hongchen falling from the stage, Xiao Hongchen said with a helpless smile, "Even you have been defeated. It seems we really can't be careless this time."
"Brother, are you alright?"
Looking at Xiao Hongchen, who was still wrapped in a blanket and shivering, Meng Hongchen asked with concern.
"I'm fine. Let's see how Captain Ma Rulong performs in the match. Shrek Academy's two Soul Emperors are already exhausted, and the remaining three can't cause any real trouble. This time, we will definitely win!"
Xiao Hongchen spoke with great determination, and even his gaze toward the arena was unwavering, as if they had already achieved victory.
"Boom—" A burst of intense dark red flames suddenly erupted in the air, and a dark red mushroom cloud rose up from the collision.
Ma Xiaotao's Phoenix Roar Strike slammed heavily into the members of the Sun and Moon Team. Even Ma Rulong, who was armed to the teeth, was shaken, and then all three of them coughed up blood.
It must be said that Ma Xiaotao's attack was indeed powerful; even when it was spread across three people, it still possessed such formidable strength.
After this attack, Ma Xiaotao's body emitted a scorching aura. With each step she took, there were scorched marks on the ground. If Ma Xiaotao hadn't deliberately controlled her soul power, she probably would have already gone into a berserk state.
Watching Ma Xiaotao leave the arena, Huo Yuhao quickly stepped forward and placed his palms on Ma Xiaotao's back. As his palms, amplified by the combined power of the Ice Emperor's Claw and the Mysterious Jade Hand, touched Ma Xiaotao's back, two streams of water mist suddenly erupted with a piercing "hissing" sound.
Two palm prints instantly vaporized from the spot where Ma Xiaotao's clothes touched Huo Yuhao's palms, and even the chair she was sitting on instantly vaporized!
Clearly, this time the evil fire flared up more severely than the last time, and the more effort was put into it, the more severe the backlash from the evil fire became.
This is not the place to suppress the evil fire right now; it can only be suppressed temporarily so that Ma Xiaotao can return to the Star Emperor Hotel in a conscious state.
After Huo Yuhao's brief suppression, Ma Xiaotao also managed to calm her restless anger, and then took Huo Yuhao back to the Star Emperor Hotel.
At the same time, a large amount of soul power suddenly gathered on the arena, and countless rays of light continuously shone on the two people in the Shrek camp who were leaning against each other.
Countless fragments swirled around the Goddess of Light Butterfly, and in an instant, the blue-gold Goddess of Light Butterfly transformed into countless starlight points, merging into the ever-swirling fragments.
The originally ordinary mirror fragments, after being incorporated into the Goddess of Light Butterfly, transformed into miniature versions of the Goddess of Light Butterfly, each of the fluttering fragments becoming a crystalline white stripe behind its wings.
Under the sunlight, white, blue, and gold create a beautiful picture, reflecting all sorts of colors among the butterflies of light fluttering in the sky!
Finally, a pure white light gate appeared, and a hazy woman slowly walked out. From a distance, only a blurry figure could be seen. Every step she took was like a beautiful dance, and the breeze gently blew her long skirt, like an absolutely beautiful painting!
