"In the next match, the Qing Feng team will face off against the San Wu team!"
Suddenly, the room fell quiet and Oscar couldn't help but chuckle, "It's another showdown between friends! Xiao Wu, Tang San, this time you're up against Wang Feng and Zhu Zhuqing."
Xiao Wu's face stiffened and she protested, "Why this? We can't possibly win this, not against brother Feng!"
Tang San shared her sentiments and felt somewhat speechless. Facing Feng'ge alone, they were clearly at a disadvantage. Even Zhu Zhuqing seemed unsure of what to say as she looked at the two.
"No, Brother Feng! You're an auxiliary system soul master, you can't join this match!"
Xiao Wu pouted and approached Wang Feng with both her hand rested on her hips and a determined look and declared, "You can only use support ability during the match!"
Everyone was taken aback and Tang San, feeling a bit embarrassed, covered his face with his hands.
Wang Feng smiled and responded, "Alright, if I don't initiate any attacks and only use auxiliary ability, specifically my first soul skill, does that work for you?"
Their agreement left everyone stunned. Was this for real?
"Yeah!"
Xiao Wu instantly stoopped pouting and laughed heartily.
"With brother Feng refraining from fighting and only using one soul skill, Zhu Zhuqing alone won't be able to defeat us. We have a high chance of winning."
Zhu Zhuqing, not wanting to suffer another loss, added, "Do you really accept this condition? I've already lost one match."
Wang Feng simply smiled, saying nothing.
'Xiao Wu, oh Xiao Wu! Your brother's first soul skill is quite extraordinary. I'll make sure you get to see it up close. I don't believe you'll ever ask me to be just an auxiliary system soul master while fighting against me…mwahahahaha....'
"Interesting, I'm looking forward to this upcoming battle." Ma Hongjun remarked, finding the situation rather intriguing.
Ning Rongrong let out a huff. Despite her initial dissatisfaction with Zhu Zhuqing and Wang Feng teaming up, she, too, was curious about the forthcoming match.
"Using only the first soul ability and not attacking... That means Zhu Zhuqing will have to face both of them alone." Dai Mubai pointed out, concerned.
"How can they possibly win like this? This arena isn't favorable for agile attack system soul masters. In the previous 1v1 matches, Zhu Zhuqing was at a disadvantage due to this condition and she lost."
Tang San had controlled the entire space and reluctantly Zhu Zhuqing had to admit defeat in the end.
"Hehe, I don't care! Feng'ge has already agreed!" Xiao Wu said cheerfully, her energy infectious.
"Brother, let's go, it's our turn to play!"
Zhu Zhuqing and Wang Feng also made their way from the passage to the soul-fighting arena below.
"I want to win." Zhu Zhuqing whispered.
"Absolutely, we will win." Wang Feng affirmed.
"How do we win?" Zhu Zhuqing inquired, her gaze fixed on Wang Feng. This young man possessed an array of incredible and enigmatic abilities.
But if he had agreed to Xiao Wu's terms, only using his first soul ability and refraining from making any direct attacks, it meant...
Later on, she would need to deal with both opponents herself. Tang San alone, in such a constricted arena, would be a formidable challenge, let alone the presence of Xiao Wu, who was no less skilled than Tang San.
"It's quite simple. My first soul ability, I'll use it on you. You fight them both and crush them," Wang Feng explained.
Zhu Zhuqing fell into a contemplative silence. It seemed impossible. No matter how potent Wang Feng's auxiliary system soul abilities were, it would be a stretch for her to defeat two opponents like Tang San And Xiao Wu alone. Even if Ning Rongrong's two soul abilities were combined and doubled for her, it would still be a daunting task to select defeat them single-handedly.
Crush them? Had he misspoken?
The two of them continued their silent march to the Soul Arena, under the watchful gaze of countless spectators.
"Brother Feng, we'll not be accused of bullying, right? Also use your first soul ability only, okay?" Xiao Wu suggested, her excitement evident.
For some reason, as Tang San observed Xiao Wu's enthusiasm, he had a vague sense of foreboding.
Wang Feng didn't hesitate. A dark purple soul ring suddenly lit up on his body and upon seeing it, many spectators exclaimed in shock.
"This young man has a thousand-year soul ring?"
"Could he be a Soul Elder? Even though he wears a mask, he doesn't appear to be very old!"
"Thousands year old soul ring, only the top students at our academy possess them..."
Wang Feng displayed only one soul ring, making it difficult for everyone to determine which of his soul rings was the thousand-year one.
"The color of brother Feng's thousand-year soul ring seems a bit deeper than I remember!" Tang San observed with great seriousness. Others might not discern the difference but as a master's disciple, his ability to identify soul rings was exceptionally accurate.
"Could it be that brother Feng's soul ring age increased somehow? But that's impossible!" Tang San wondered. He had never heard of such a phenomenon.
"First Soul Skill, [Deification]!" Wang Feng whispered slightly.
At that moment, a golden lotus bloomed in Wang Feng's palm as a petal shattered into golden light, instantly infusing into Zhu Zhuqing's body.
In the next moment, countless pairs of eyes were fixed on Zhu Zhuqing as a remarkable transformation occurred. She, who had initially worn a sleek and form-fitting outfit that showcased her stunning figure to its fullest, however, now her entire body was emitting a faint golden glow, adding a touch of allure.
Her eyes, which were originally of two different colors, were now filled with a radiant golden light, exuding an aura of holiness. Despite her catlike nature, after the spirit enhancement, her demeanor appeared both cold and enchanting, two contrasting qualities blending seamlessly.
It was simply breathtaking.
What stunned the onlookers even more was the faint aura of lightning and thunder that enveloped her. Her dark, flowing hair also seemed to be bathed in golden light.
"Wow, is this Wang Feng's first soul ability? Aside from its obvious beautifying effects, I bet it'll make him quite popular with the ladies." Ma Hongjun remarked with a touch of envy.
Indeed, Wang Feng's [Deification] ability not only altered the person appearance but also their overall temperament.
"What a magnificent sight..." Ning Rongrong watched in a mix of admiration and jealousy.
Her jealousy stemmed from the envy she felt for Zhu Zhuqing, who had become even more stunning after the transformation.
Dai Mubai, standing beside her, was equally captivated. No one had expected Wang Feng's first soul ability to have such an additional effect.
However, Tang San remained focused, undistracted by the visual spectacle before him. As soon as Wang Feng gave the signal, he shouted, "Xiao Wu, attack!"
"Alright! But next time, I want Brother Feng to defile me. I want to feel his soul ability in me!" Xiao Wu said in a cheerful manner. With the martial soul possession, she lunged toward Zhu Zhuqing.
Tang San took a deep breath and with a sweep of his hand toward the ground, caused countless vines to shoot into the sky, forming an inverted bowl shape. In an instant, Zhu Zhuqing was enveloped within it.
"Zhuqing, I'm here!" Xiao Wu leaped high, using the blue silver grass vines as her platform, and with incredible agility, she descended upon Zhu Zhuqing, ready to engage her in combat.
However, at that precise moment, something incredible happened.
Zhu Zhuqing's eyes flickered as a wave of golden aura emanated from her, dispersing outwards from her center. She didn't know what she looked like at that moment, nor did she care. The only thing occupying her mind was the newfound strength coursing through her body.
She shot a profound and grateful look at Wang Feng, her golden eyes reflecting a deep sense of awe.
Her hands transformed into sharp claws and in an instant, Zhu Zhuqing vanished from her original position.
Xiao Wu was left momentarily stunned, feeling an abrupt chill behind her back.
Tang San's voice rang out from a distance, "Be careful, Xiao Wu! She's behind you and her speed has increased tremendously. Don't underestimate her!"
Without turning her head, Xiao Wu instinctively tilted her head back as a flash of golden light, tinged with hints of thunder, darted past her nose.
Xiao Wu seized the opportunity, using both hands to grasp Zhu Zhuqing's leg. She attempted to employ her soft skills to climb onto Zhu Zhuqing's body and execute her waist bow technique.
However, as she gripped Zhu Zhuqing's leg, a powerful electric shock surged through Xiao Wu, causing her to instinctively release her grip. Her hands went numb as she was left stunned.
"Wha—"
In that instant, Zhu Zhuqing's nether claws clamped onto Xiao Wu's neck. Her voice came faintly, "Xiao Wu, you lose."
A tingling sensation, akin to a lightning strike, raced from Zhu Zhuqing's hands through Xiao Wu's neck and into her body within seconds. During those brief seconds, several vines tried to immobilized Zhu Zhuqing's limbs.
However, Xiao Wu, who had fallen from Zhu Zhuqing's grasp, lay limp on the ground, devoid of strength, resembling a rabbit who has suffered electric shock. Her fingers twitched occasionally.
"Brother... Zhu Zhuqing's electric shock has a much more potent paralyzing effect than even your poison! When I touched her, my hands lost their strength..." Xiao Wu spoke weakly.
Tang San was left speechless. Wang Feng's first soul ability was clearly no ordinary skill. Its paralysis effect, combined with full-body defense, was a formidable adversary for any melee combatant. It seemed that touching Zhu Zhuqing came with a price—paralysis.
