Chapter 278.
In the arena, Wang Feng saw the Emperor team. Yu Tianheng was still tall and handsome, and Dugu Yan's hair had turned back to green due to detoxification, enhancing her appearance significantly. The rest of the players hadn't changed much, but they all appeared more mature and calm, and their soul rank levels had improved a lot. They were all at level 41 and above. Over more than two years, their improvement was not exaggerated, but it was quite good.
Yu Tianheng's rank was the highest, close to the forty-eighth level, demonstrating the talent of the first young generation of his Blue Tyrant Lightning Dragon clan.
"More cautious," Wang Feng thought to himself. Yu Tianheng's gaze was calm and restrained. When he stepped onto the ring, he looked at Shrek Academy.
Even when facing the Soul Hall Academy team, Yu Tianheng didn't show any discouragement in his eyes! The same went for the team behind him. When Tang San encountered the Emperor Team again, he sighed repeatedly. He hadn't expected that Captain Yu Tianheng and his team members would not only become stronger but also more resilient. They must have gone through a lot of hardship in the past two years to achieve this mindset. Facing the Soul Hall –Academy team, they were calm and filled with determination.
Soon, the Soul Hall Palace academy team finally stepped onto the stage! Among the seven people, few people caught everyone's attention!
They were the Golden Generation of the Soul Hall Palace!
Almost immediately, Wang Feng's pupils shrank slightly. A familiar aura came slowly from one of the women.
"What's happening?" Wang Feng asked in a deep voice.
"It's Yaya's consciousness... I'm feeling a bit dizzy," Shui Bing'er replied, shaking her head. She walked to the side seat and pressed her head. "But it's all right. It's just a momentary shock of consciousness."
As she spoke, Shui Bing'er couldn't help looking at the Golden Generation of Soul Hall Palace on the stage. Just now, she had looked at one of the girls, and then the soul bone in her head trembled, and Yaya's consciousness surged uncontrollably. It seemed that at this moment, the girl also glanced at Shui Bing'er, looking a little curious.
This was a very beautiful girl. While her individual features might not surpass Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong, her overall appearance was exceptionally striking, equally matching them. The more one looked at her, the more beautiful she seemed, especially her pair of fox like eyes. A blink of her eye could easily captivate people's hearts.
Wang Feng looked at the girl with a gloomy expression. She has the breath of the Starlight Fox on her. Fortunately, Wang –Feng did not sense the presence of the little blue bird, or he might have really lost it and attacked them. This might be the only thing he could be thankful for at the moment. But this also meant that the girl must have absorbed the soul ring of the Starlight Fox!
'But the consciousness of the Starlight Fox has not disappeared...' Wang Feng's eyes, under the white mask, flashed with a few evil glints. He could sense the soul of the Starlight Fox, which meant that the consciousness of the Starlight Fox still existed in this girl soul ring, similar to Shui Bing'er's situation. There was also a soul bone, but the soul had not dissipated. He wasn't sure how it had been done.
Wang Feng closed his eyes slightly. With the power of the Soul Hall Palace, it was really too easy to hunt down those three little ones. After all, they weren't the kind of soul beasts that had survived for 100,000 years. Although they had grown a lot stronger under the careful cultivation of his Golden Lotus potent energy, the soul beasts that had survived tens of thousands of years of cultivation were already –very impressive.
If it was similar to Shui Bing'er's situation, then...
'Why would the Starlight Fox be willing to become her soul ring?' Wang Feng wondered.
There were countless questions in Wang Feng's mind. He guessed that the people from Soul Hall Palace were chasing after the blue bird and her group of three. He could understand Yaya's willingness to become Shui Bing'er's soul ring as she had no direct connection to Soul Hall Palace and was merely a passerby with a kind heart. Yaya was very intelligent and Wang Feng could sense her good nature.
But this girl was clearly from Soul Hall Palace. This doubt made Wang Feng want to rush to the ring and ask her directly. However, he held back, knowing he would get answers sooner or later. If his memory was correct, this girl should be Hu Liena, the saint of Soul Hall Palace, whose martial soul was also a fox. And it wasn't just any ordinary fox.
Alongside her were two others, her brother Xie Yue, whose face was ordinary yet sharp and with a well-proportioned tall figure, and another –man, who should be Yan, one of the three Golden Generation. Yan's face was also handsome, and although not as tall as Xie Ye, his flame-red hair gave off a fiery aura indicating his flame-type martial soul.
The soul power of these three was exceptionally high. Xie Ye was the highest, close to the 56th-rank, the highest soul power level Wang Feng had seen in the competition. Hu Liena was at the 54th-rank and Yan at 55th-rank. Their aura was overwhelming and intimidating.
"Their soul power levels are too high," Wang Feng thought, frowning. Xie Ye was at least eight levels higher than Yu Tianheng. This significant gap couldn't be bridged by ordinary soul abilities and strategies. Even with the resources of Soul Hall Palace, reaching such high levels suggested they had encountered special opportunities.
Wang Feng also sensed a soul bone on Hu Liena, located in her head, which was also the place where he can sense Starlight Fox's consciousness. He couldn't sense any soul bones on the other two.
As the three took the stage, Xie Ye glanced at the position of Jiu Yikai, a faint light flashing in his eyes, clearly aware of performance of Jiu Yikai. Wang Feng didn't react, merely looked back at him indifferently.
The battle began, and Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan immediately joined forces without hesitation, while the two Black Turtle Soul Masters positioned themselves defensively in front.
"Martial Soul Fusion Technique? It seems Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan have grown a lot in the past two years," Wang Feng thought.
Though the martial soul fusion technique might seem mysterious, if two people are together for a long time, their martial soul's compatibility increases as well over time. Over years, even decades, they can form martial soul fusion technique despite initial incompatibility. Wang Feng's Chaos Green Lotus innate affinity with all creatures made it unique, allowing him to form martial soul fusion skills with anyone.
Yu Tianheng was cautious, knowing the vast difference between the two teams, relying on –the martial soul fusion technique and the skill provided by it to have a chance to defeat their opponents.
However, the Golden Generation remained unfazed. Hu Liena gently stepped forward, her martial soul, a snow-white fox with a star mark on its forehead, emerged. Wang Feng's eyes narrowed at the sight.
"It's the mark of Starlight Fox—her martial soul also mutated!" he whispered.
"Hu Liena's martial soul should have been a top level beast martial soul fox with strong charm abilities. Now, it resembles the Starlight Fox, indicating that the Starlight Fox willingly became her soul ring. But why?"
If the Starlight Fox had been forced or threatened, such –a significant martial soul mutation would be impossible, let alone the presence of a soul bone.
As Hu Liena's martial soul guarded her, five soul rings appeared around her—yellow, yellow, purple, purple and black. Her charm was amplified several fold, making her beauty enchanting yet not gaudy. A fluffy tail also grew behind her. Her first four soul rings lit up, flickering slightly, but the last black one remained unlit.
A faint red light flashed in her eyes, as the two Black Turtle Soul Masters facing her were instantly captivated, their defensive skills dissipating. The same happened to the other two soul masters, leaving only Ye Lingling slightly unaffected.
A dragon's roar sounded from behind the two guards, snapping them back to awareness. But Hu Liena's soft laugh followed, "Go to sleep~,"
Causing the four soul masters to fall asleep instantly.
Wang Feng shook his head from a distance. The difference in soul power was too vast, and with Hu Liena's mutated martial soul, they stood no chance.
However, Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan's martial soul fusion technique soon appeared, forming a Thunder Dragon over ten meters long with a green energy form.
The dragon, surrounded by lightning, was named "Blue Lightning Phosphorous Dragon." This –martial soul fusion skill matched the strength of a soul king of over fifty ranks, making it quite powerful, raising their level significantly.
Generally, this –skill would have a devastating effect against other teams. However, against Xie Ye or Yan, the odds were still slim. Nevertheless, the Emperor Fighting team's efforts were commendable.
"Humph!"
Xie Ye stepped forward, as crescent moon blades appeared in his hands, and his five soul rings lit up. Wang Feng noted, "It seems Xie Ye and Hu Liena have a martial soul fusion skill too. However, a soul king of over fifty levels using a fusion skill against others seems unnecessary."
