The teacher knew well that what Shui Wuya casually called "trying something different" would be a daunting task for other soul masters.

Performing a Soul Skill four times in a short span of time was something few Soul Ancestors could achieve.

Furthermore, adjusting the power and control effects of the Ice Seal Soul Skill demonstrated Shui Wuya's strength.

Winning this match meant that Shui Wuya's team would only have one opponent left — Huo Yuhao's team.

The battles in the assessment area were nearing their conclusion.

When Huo Yuhao defeated his opponent, both teams had some temporary rest time.

After the break, Shui Wuya once again encountered Huo Yuhao.

This was his fourth meeting with Huo Yuhao.

The first was during enrollment, the second was in Class One, and the third was when they bought grilled fish.

Shui Wuya keenly felt that many eyes were watching this final match, not only the referees but also many teachers.

"Captain, how should we proceed?" Dai Huabin asked softly, his eyes fixed on Huo Yuhao's group.

Facing their opponents in the finals required serious consideration.

Xiao Xiao had a twin martial soul, while Wang Dong was a Senior-ranked soul master, and their martial soul could fly into the air.

Although their captain only had one soul ring, a ten-year soul ring at that, Dai Huabin wouldn't underestimate their opponents, given how far they had come.

"You and Zhu Lu just watch," Shui Wuya stretched lazily. Even against Huo Yuhao, he was a bit more serious.

Their opponents had revealed their trump card, the fusion skill with Wang Dong, the Golden Path.

But there was more!

The million-year soul ring, and the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, were Huo Yuhao's biggest trump cards.

Shui Wuya wanted to test the limits of his Ultimate Ice with Extreme Ice Amplification. With it, his solo combat power already surpassed that of an ordinary Soul Ancestor.

"Captain, what if..." Dai Huabin was a bit worried.

"If there's a problem, you can use the martial soul fusion skill you've been practicing at full strength as a backup, right?" Shui Wuya chuckled lightly.

He didn't think Dai Huabin would need to serve as a backup. If he couldn't handle Huo Yuhao's group alone, what could Dai Huabin do?

Still, this reasoning made Dai Huabin nod in agreement. If things went south, they could always team up. Would they not be able to win with a 3v3?

Ten meters away, Huo Yuhao also felt the pressure.

He knew the difficulty of this match very well. Although he had an idea to counter Shui Wuya's Ice Seal Soul Skill, he hadn't tried it yet.

However, there was a reason he absolutely had to win this match.

Dai Huabin — he must defeat him!

"Both teams, please take your positions. Let the match begin!"

"Ice Seal!"

"Spiritual Interference!"

Shui Wuya and Huo Yuhao almost simultaneously used their Soul Skills.

However, the Spiritual Skill took effect faster than Shui Wuya's Soul Skill.

Thus, a strange scene unfolded in the arena. Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu had already retreated to the edge of the field, while Shui Wuya remained in the center.

Huo Yuhao's team summoned their martial souls, but suddenly three ice pillars appeared around each of them!

The teachers watching the match were surprised by this turn of events.

"Even in the finals, his Soul Skill was off?" Yan Shaozhe, who was present at the scene, was also surprised.

Then, his gaze fell on Huo Yuhao. The Spirit Eye, a spiritual-type martial soul, could it be Huo Yuhao's doing?

Based on his understanding of Shui Wuya, such an error would never occur with him.

"Humph, if even his Soul Skill goes awry, what kind of person can he become?" Zhou Yi sneered, looking at Shui Wuya, feeling very dissatisfied.

In the arena, Shui Wuya found it very interesting. He had clearly locked onto Huo Yuhao's group, but the result was skewed.

It was probably Huo Yuhao's Spiritual Interference at work.

But, it wasn't unavoidable!

Shui Wuya's internal cultivation method rapidly circulated, instantly entering the state of Ice Heart Clarity, immunizing him against spiritual attacks, his eyes as bright and wise as ice and snow.

"Huang Xiaoxiao, quick!" Huo Yuhao saw his Soul Skill take effect and hastily retreated.

Xiao Xiao had already summoned her Three Lives Soul Suppression Cauldron and was about to attack Shui Wuya when she suddenly found an ice wall appearing in front of her.

Immediately after, a crystal ice spear emerged from the ice wall!

Clang!

The ice spear, as hard as metal, struck the Three Lives Soul Suppression Cauldron, emitting a deafening sound.

"Self-created Soul Skill!" Yan Shaozhe was dumbfounded. He could understand controlling the size of the ice wall, but being able to reverse engineer and form an ice spear based on the formation process of the ice wall using the same principle was astonishing!

Although it was only in appearance, it still had the defensive effect of the ice wall, without the added offensive power of an attack Soul Skill. Nevertheless, it was already quite impressive!

Just how many trump cards did Shui Wuya have up his sleeve?

But for Shui Wuya, this was just basic operation. With the inheritance of the millennia-old Extreme Ice Heart Law, how could he not have inherited Soul Skills?

His Ice Phoenix Martial Soul focused mainly on elements, not physical abilities.

Controlling elements made it much easier to create self-made Soul Skills because these skills were just variations of the Soul Skills used with soul rings.

"Xiaoxiao!" Huo Yuhao shouted in alarm.

Fortunately, through mental sharing, Xiao Xiao finally reacted.

"Can we get close?" Huo Yuhao turned to Wang Dong.

Wang Dong's attacks were all blocked by the ice wall, unable to harm Shui Wuya at all.

With a forty-level soul power, they couldn't outlast them.

"Impossible to get close," Wang Dong said with a grimace. Finally, they understood how other teams felt facing Shui Wuya.

They couldn't get close, as they'd be frozen on the spot. However, long-range attacks would be completely blocked by the ice wall.

And Shui Wuya wouldn't just stand still. Behind him were Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu, who hadn't made a move yet, but Huo Yuhao's team couldn't afford to ignore them.

"Let's use the Martial Soul Fusion Skill."

Now, the only way Wang Dong could think of to eliminate Shui Wuya was to use the Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

Huo Yuhao felt it was a bit early, but now that they couldn't even handle Shui Wuya, they might not have a chance to use the Martial Soul Fusion Skill later!

Suddenly, a burst of light erupted from Wang Dong's body. A phantom of a radiant goddess appeared, while behind Huo Yuhao, a giant purple spirit eye emerged.

Huo Yuhao protected Wang Dong, and in the sky, the radiant goddess embraced the spirit eye. In the next moment, the goddess ignited into pure light, pouring into the spirit eye.

For a moment, only the spirit eye remained floating in the sky.

Was this the Desolate Brilliance within Radiance, the Golden Path?

Shui Wuya looked calmly at the giant spirit eye before him, but inwardly, he was mocking Huo Yuhao.

The Radiant Butterfly Martial Soul was called the goddess butterfly, so how could it possibly be a martial soul owned by a male?
