Chapter 255.
"I guess we can't beat Jiu Yikai, right?" Oscar squeezed his chin.
"In a team battle, although we haven't fought against Jiu Yikai yet, he's still defeated almost every other team in team battles alone! What a freak!"
"He really is abnormal. Even if they had also taken immortal herbs and cultivated normally, reaching that age, they won't be inferior or maybe even surpass Jiu Yikai in strength."
"Not necessarily, Xiao Ao, have you forgotten that Jiu Yikai has never released a martial soul and used a soul ring ability?" Tang San shook his head.
"In the promotion match, he still only used his soul bones, except when he played against me, he showed some of his hidden strength a little, and he never exposed any information. He's hidden too deeply... I feel that Jiu Yikai will really be able to create a miracle this year."
"But our Shrek Academy can't fall behind, we still have a big chance." Tang San's words gave everyone a lot of confidence.
"I have twin martial souls and Eight Spider Lances, Rongrong's Nine Treasure Star Cloud Pagoda, Oscar's Sausage, Zhuqing's Moon Elf, Fatty's Fire Phoenix, Mubai's White Tiger, and we have brother Feng in reserve too. Even if brother Wang doesn't make a move, he can still martial soul fusion technique with Zhuqing and Fatty's. It may not be impossible to –defeat either Jiu Yikai or Soul Hall's Golden Generation!"
Tang San continued speaking, and everyone nodded again.
"By the way, what if they also have martial soul fusion technique, or even soul bones?" Oscar asked.
"Although the reward is a soul bone, they are the Golden Generation of Soul Hall, how can there be no one among them have soul bone? The human body can have a total of six soul bones!"
This question hit the mark. Wang Feng secretly thought that soul bones are extremely important for the advancement of soul masters. Even though Soul Hall only took out four soul bones, how could the Golden Generation, they cultivated with the resources of Soul Hall lack soul bones?
Considering the academy Wang Feng had currently encountered—Skywater, Armored Elephant Sect, and Shadow Academy, all of them had soul bones. The seed team of Soul Hall, Wang Feng felt, was unlikely to be without soul bones.
Martial soul fusion technique were a bit more difficult to ascertain. Soul bones were extremely rare, but with the status of the Soul Hall, they would definitely be allocated to the Golden Generation, even if it was only one piece per person!
For this question, Tang San also provided an accurate answer. "Actually, we can try a seven-player synergy."
Wang Feng thought for a while and then said, "Everyone was stunned. –Seven people combined powers?"
"Of course, unlike a martial soul fusion technique," Wang Feng clarified. "It's the attack made by the seven people who use the power of the martial soul to unite. Remember... the special charge-up combined skill of Blazing Academy?"–
Everyone nodded.
"That is actually an alternative seven-person synergy, which brings together the power of seven people at one point," Wang Feng explained with a smile. "Remember how strong Huo Wushuang was? Xiao San, do you think you are sure of winning?"
Tang San pondered for a moment and then shook his head.
"Although I am immune to fire, Huo Wushuang's soul power at that time had reached level –50, and his body attributes had been greatly improved. Unless I use the Eight Spider Lance and Clear Sky Hammer, I can't be sure of victory."
The Eight Spider Lances and Clear Sky Hammer were already Tang San's top matches. One could imagine how powerful Huo Wushuang was.
"Yes," Wang Feng said in a deep voice. "You can try to gather the power of the seven people in one point! As for this point, who it is, it needs your cooperation!"
With Wang Feng's words finished, all of them were stunned.
Yes! Since Blazing Academy was able to use soul skills to create that special method, why couldn't they?
Gathering the power of all people at one point, with the power of seven people, let alone level 55, even level 60 opponents may be defeated easily!
"This synergy requires practice. It's not like the martial soul fusion technique, it's more flexible," Wang Feng continued.
"Master walks fast, so I'll brief you for now. Although there are still more than 20 days before going to the Soul City, you're not strangers. The seven of you have been through many battles and have developed a tacit cooperation. Developing this kind of seven-person synergy shouldn't be difficult. Come on!"
Wang Feng, of course, would not participate. He would compete on as Jiu Yikai, and he had no chance.
Wang Feng's words seemed to open a door to the seven! If the seven-person synergy technique could really be created, maybe it was truly possible to defeat him!
Along the way, the seven people discussed the synergy of the seven while practicing. Sometimes –Wang Feng took advantage of the large group's rest breaks to visit the carriage of the Purple Star Academy.
In contrast, the Purple Star Academy's carriage seemed very cold, with only Dean Fei Lun inside.
"How many days are left?" Wang Feng asked in a low voice.
"It's almost halfway, ten days, right?" President Fei Lun sighed.
"Ten days?" Wang Feng frowned, and something faintly sounded. He opened the curtains outside, shook his head, and said, "The wind here is very noisy today!"
The paths they walked were all well-defined roads. Although there were various forests nearby, the routes were clear.
"Don't worry, with the Five Hundred Royal Knights following us, are you still worried that someone will attack us?" Dean Fei Lun said with a smile.
Speaking, Dean Fei Lun walked out of the carriage and looked at the royal knights wearing armor and grim faces.
The strength of these knights was very high, basically all of them are above the 30th level, and many were even above forty-level Soul Ancestor.
Most importantly, they were an army, with a neat military appearance and excellent discipline. From their aura, Wang Feng could feel their combat effectiveness was exceptionally strong.
Wang Feng remembered something and couldn't help but frown. "Would they come this time too?"
Wang Feng scanned the surrounding terrain and found that their road was between two small hills, surrounded by dense woods.
At this moment, the woods suddenly trembled. Countless birds flew out from the forest, and a hurricane seemed to blow down from the mountain.
"Enemy attack, alert!" Almost at the moment when Wang Feng sensed it, the captain of the Royal Knights in front of him shouted loudly.
Obviously, these elite soldiers were also extremely alert!
"There really is someone!" Dean Fei Lun was dumbfounded, then added, "Be careful!"
Wang Feng sneered inwardly.
Not Someone. The people of the Soul hall were not just someone! Besides, even Titled Douluo would appear if going by the original. Wang Feng vaguely remembered Ning Fengzhi also appearing with Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo.
Even if he didn't recall, Wang Feng could guess that Xue Qinghe was Ning Fengzhi's disciple, and his daughter was in the team. How could he be reassured?
However, even so, Wang Feng remained extremely vigilant. His appearance might lead to the Soul Hall including his name on their list of targets.
Following his outstanding performance in the qualifiers and promotion matches as Jiu Yikai, Soul Hall would mark him for execution, provided they weren't foolish.
Ning Fengzhi had no ties with Jiu Yikai, they would rescue Tang San and his companions, but not him.
"Maybe I should disappear for a while?" Wang Feng pondered.
"But..." Wang Feng's frown deepened as he glanced between the two mountains.
Suddenly, a rumbling sound emanated from the mountainside, and massive boulders, ablaze with flames, tumbled down the slope like a meteor shower.
"This terrain is quite treacherous!"
"Form up! All colleges, disembark and prepare for impact!" The leader of the Royal Knights bellowed.
With swift commands, he directed five hundred sergeants into two rows, positioning them to intercept the rolling fire boulders.
It must be noted that these five hundred soldiers were truly formidable. Their martial prowess shone as they cooperatively erected two lines of defense, effortlessly deflecting the flaming balls of fire.
All fifteen college students swiftly disembarked from their carriages, maintaining the formations of their respective colleges, and hurriedly advanced, veering off the road.
The fire boulders were momentarily halted by the Royal Knights. However, a sense of foreboding loomed in the hearts of many.
As they were about to break through the terrain between the two hills, a horde of black-clad figures charged down from the mountains towards the carriages of the fifteen colleges.
These black-clad figures resembled bandits, but upon closer inspection, they proved to be well-trained, agile, and comprised of high-level soul masters.
However, the Heaven Dou Empire Academy was not to be underestimated. Despite the five hundred royal knights positioned behind the flame boulders, there were also fifteen academy teachers present, all of whom were formidable soul masters ranging from the 60th to 70th level, as well as the most elite fighters of the Heaven Dou Empire. Even with the advantage of terrain, attacking them might not be effective.
But appearances could be deceiving.
These black-clad individuals were clearly no ordinary bandits. There were at least 1,500 of them, and according to Wang Feng's estimate, hundreds were soul masters, although perhaps not outnumbering those of the academy. However, they were bolstered by at least a thousand assistants. Each soul master was accompanied by four or five others, targeting specific individuals for elimination while besieging one academy.
The elite students were caught somewhat off guard. While the students of the fifteen colleges were all elite, few had experienced real combat. Unlike those from Shrek, who had been seasoned by prolonged exposure to battle and killing, such individuals were rare among the colleges.
Consequently, more than a dozen colleges found themselves completely at a disadvantage.
