The council members all sighed and said, "Ah... even the Vice Tower Master has used several soul skills but still cannot do anything about Elder Xu! I'm afraid she will lose this duel."
"What are you thinking? The Vice Tower Master must be holding back because she is in the training room and can't go all out! Otherwise, how could Elder Xu possibly withstand it?"
"Although I'm reluctant to admit it, that Elder Xu from the Sea God's Pavilion just casually smashed the Vice Tower Master's reinforced Second Soul Skill with a single blow! That's not something an ordinary Soul Sage could do!"
"The boost from seven hundred-thousand-year soul rings is terrifying indeed!"
At that moment, Qiangu Qingfeng's gaze turned to Leng Yaozhu and he spoke, "Pagoda Master, please deactivate the training room's Defensive Soul Guidance Device."
Because next, he was going to use his full strength, which might affect the council members watching the battle...
Upon hearing this, Leng Yaozhu also knew that the real duel was just beginning...
After nodding slightly, she stretched out her hand and pressed a button...
In an instant, a huge white protective dome appeared out of nowhere, enveloping both Xu Sheng and Qiangu Qingfeng within it...
This was a ninth-grade soul guidance device, capable of withstanding the strongest strike of an ordinary Titled Douluo without suffering a single scratch!
Seeing this scene, Qiangu Qingfeng took a deep breath and said solemnly, "Elder Xu, please be careful. Next, I will use my full strength!"
Xu Sheng gave a slight smile and said softly, "Vice Tower Master, please..."
His opponent was formidable, but compared to Yun Ming and the Demon Emperor from the Holy Spirit Cult, there was still a gap!
Qiangu Qingfeng didn't say anything more, as the light from his fourth soul ring lit up...
Fourth Soul Skill, Purgatory Roar!
He clenched the Purgatory Halberd in his hand and fiercely smashed it into the ground below, causing a surge of Soul Power to gush forth...
The next second, this Soul Power quietly coalesced into eighteen purple-black orbs of light, tightly circling around him, spinning continuously...
"Go!"
With a thought from him, the eighteen orbs of light, as if sentient, bombarded Xu Sheng from all kinds of tricky angles...
The latter immediately spread out his spiritual power, sensing the trajectory of each light orb, continuously dodging...
Qiangu Qingfeng, who had been waiting for an opportunity, suddenly said, "Found an opening!"
At that moment, he burst forth with his fastest speed, charging at Xu Sheng like a bullet, aiming a strike at his head...
But the anticipated scene did not occur; the Purgatory Halberd went straight through, without feeling any sensation of striking a solid body...
Qiangu Qingfeng's eyes widened, "This is... an afterimage!!"
At that moment, he could feel a chill rising on his back...
Xu Sheng's Ice Rose Sword, exuding coldness, was already placed against his neck, "Vice Tower Master, thank you for your leniency."
Qiangu Qingfeng was stunned for a moment, then gave a wry smile and said, "I... have lost!"
He could not contend with Elder Xu's strength! Even if he had used his Martial Soul True Body, victory was still not possible!
From the beginning, the other party was just toying with the duel...
Not finishing him off immediately was already giving him enough face...
...
Inside the Icy Gorge of the Intermediate Spirit Ascension Platform!
Gu Yue's gaze was locked on by the Glacial Mammoth that was charging straight towards her from behind...
If she were hit, it would result in death or grave injury!
Xie Xie warned, "Gu Yue, be careful, the Glacial Mammoth is targeting you!"
As the Glacial Mammoth charged at her, Gu Yue immediately used space elements to disappear from sight...
When the figure reappeared, it already stood on the back of its opponent…
After rapidly conjuring several fireballs in the air with high speed, they bombarded down swiftly…
When these fireballs hit the Glacial Mammoth, they exploded violently, creating a cloud of smoke...
Wu Siduo narrowed her beautiful eyes and asked, "Did it work?"
Tang Wulin shook his head gravely, "No… The defensive power of the Glacial Mammoth is extremely high; just with fireballs, we can't hurt it at all."
True enough, when the smoke cleared, the unscathed, massive body of the Glacial Mammoth was revealed…
Even the areas bombarded by fireballs had merely blackened, with most of the damage absorbed by the sturdy scales…
The Glacial Mammoth seemed to sense Gu Yue's presence on its back and, after letting out an angry roar…
It immediately raised its sharp scales all over its body, exploding them out like a hedgehog, successfully flinging Gu Yue off…
Gu Yue, having landed safely, said with lingering fear, "That was close… I didn't expect the scales of the Glacial Mammoth to be so flexible!"
If she hadn't left in time, her legs might have been pierced through!
Tang Wulin frowned, "Gu Yue's attack had absolutely no effect. It seems impossible to break through the Glacial Mammoth's defense with brute force; we must find a way to destroy those scales!"
Ye Xinglan nodded in agreement, "Yes, the robust defense of the Glacial Mammoth all comes from those scales! Once they are destroyed, it will become very fragile."
Xie Xie said anxiously, "But the scales themselves are so sturdy, how can we destroy them?"
Not far away, Xu Lizhi spoke up softly, "Er… everyone, just now when Gu Yue was on the back of the Glacial Mammoth, it extended the sharp side of its scales. If we attack at that moment, we might be able to destroy them!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up…
Tang Wulin tapped his own head, jubilant, "Right, why didn't I think of that? It looks like you're not as simple as you appear, Lizhi."
Xu Lizhi, feeling helpful, chuckled sheepishly, "Heh… heh-heh."
Then, Tang Wulin turned his gaze toward Wu Siduo and the others, his mouth curving into a smile, "You all should know what to do now, right?"
Having trained together for so long, they had developed a certain tacit understanding and surely knew what he was thinking!
However, the reality was...
Xu Xiaoyan looked completely clueless, "What to do?"
Xie Xie asked, puzzled, "Wulin, you could be a little clearer, how are we supposed to know what to do?"
Ye Xinglan also cast a doubtful look, "Hmm?"
Even Wu Siduo stared coldly at Tang Wulin, her emotionless cheeks saying plainly that she had no idea what the latter was muttering about…
With no other choice, Tang Wulin covered his forehead, turning his hopeful gaze toward Gu Yue…
Feeling the weight of that gaze, Gu Yue couldn't help but shiver all over…
Then, covering her mouth to cough, she said, "Wulin, I can understand what you're thinking, but we still need a detailed plan. Otherwise, it's hard for everyone to coordinate!"
"Especially Wu Siduo; she just joined us. If things aren't clear, it's difficult for her to act!"
