Huo Yuhao wanted to launch another attack, but behind the arrow, there unexpectedly appeared more snowflakes.
Glacier for the arrow, snow dance in pursuit.
The subsequent snowflakes were the most powerful part of this soul skill!
In an instant, the snowflakes obscured everyone's vision.
All the teachers present became nervous. The referee beside the arena was about to approach, but the extreme coldness prevented him, a Soul Emperor, from getting close!
This was just a battle between a Soul Ancestor and a Soul Master, how was this possible?
Fortunately, Shrek Academy attached great importance to the assessment. Among the teachers present, not only were there Soul Emperors, but also several Soul Saints serving as referees, just to prevent any accidents from happening.
Almost at the same time, two Soul Saints rushed into the sky filled with snowflakes.
Then, they witnessed a shocking scene.
In the center of the storm, an ice crystal phoenix danced gracefully, empowering the arrow below it.
And on the other side, Huo Yuhao, with a pair of pale eyes, released a terrifying suppressing force.
The Tianmeng Iceworm was truly an unprecedented million-year soul beast.
Although it had been trapped in the Star Dou Forest, it depended on who its enemies were.
Faced with a beast of tens of thousands of years, the Tianmeng Iceworm was naturally not an opponent.
However, when it had attempted to escape earlier, it had already tried to become a Soul Master's ninth soul ring. As a result, the massive power had directly burst the person's body.
Its strength was above that of a Titled Douluo!
But now, by using Huo Yuhao's body to launch an attack, the Tianmeng Iceworm couldn't let loose its full strength.
The power of a million-year soul beast was formidable, but Huo Yuhao's body had its limits.
After three seconds of stalemate, the Tianmeng Iceworm clearly felt that Huo Yuhao's body was approaching its limit, and reluctantly sighed.
"It seems I can't help you anymore." The Tianmeng Iceworm sighed and released its control over Huo Yuhao's body.
"Tianmeng, you've already done your best, thank you." Huo Yuhao expressed his gratitude.
He understood very well that if it weren't for the Tianmeng Iceworm's intervention, he would have already lost.
Now, it was just that his own strength wasn't enough.
His consciousness returned, and the aurora resisting the arrow dissipated in the air.
A huge sense of exhaustion surged up, and Huo Yuhao couldn't hold on any longer, fainting away with deep unwillingness on his brow.
"Huo Yuhao!" Wang Dong's face was filled with worry.
In the next moment, the arrow disappeared.
Shui Wuya dispelled his soul skill, his ice-blue wings disappearing, and the snowflakes floating in the sky fell to the ground.
Two Soul Saint-level teachers appeared beside Huo Yuhao.
"How do you feel? Did you suffer any internal injuries?" Without saying a word, the teacher grabbed Shui Wuya's hand, and the cold chill instantly rushed into his body, causing him to furrow his brows.
But after all, he was a Soul Saint, and the lingering cold couldn't have any effect on him.
After a thorough examination, it was determined that Shui Wuya had only depleted his soul power and hadn't suffered any injuries.
"His recent attack reached the limit of his body, and he fainted from exhaustion," another Soul Saint finished examining Huo Yuhao.
Yan Shaozhe also appeared on the scene.
"Is he also a Twin Martial Soul?" He, obviously, was asking about Huo Yuhao.
"It's possible, but it could also be a variation in his Martial Soul, after all, it's his original Martial Soul."
The biggest difference between the original Martial Soul and other Martial Souls was that it would continuously undergo benign mutations, becoming stronger and stronger.
A figure suddenly appeared, an old man holding a chicken leg, his eyes full of shrewd wisdom.
"It seems that some adjustments need to be made to the original arrangements for him. With such potential, he's already qualified to become a core disciple."
Yan Shaozhe looked at the old man beside him in astonishment. "Elder Xuan, why are you here?"
"The academy has produced two geniuses all of a sudden, I couldn't sit still. As for that Huo Yuhao, I'll take him to see Elder Mu first. You're familiar with Shui Wuya, so communicate with him. What this kid did with the Martial Soul of Dai Huabin and Huo Yuhao, was quite impressive."
With that, Elder Xuan disappeared with the still unconscious Huo Yuhao from the arena.
Yan Shaozhe stood dumbfounded in place. Elder Xuan hadn't even explained clearly before taking the person away. How was he supposed to handle this?
"Dean, what's the result of the final?"
With Huo Yuhao taken away by Elder Xuan, they didn't know how to judge the result of this match.
"Although Shui Wuya has also depleted his soul power, but Huo Yuhao has fainted. Both members of their teams have been eliminated, so the winner is naturally Shui Wuya."
After speaking, Yan Shaozhe came to Shui Wuya's side, smiling and patting his shoulder, then handing him a bottle of medicine.
"This medicine can quickly restore your soul power. You really gave me a big surprise," Yan Shaozhe said without inquiring about his soul skills.
The third soul skill was just a purple soul ring, but its power far exceeded that of ordinary Soul Ancestors, even Soul Emperors.
Yan Shaozhe didn't ask how Shui Wuya did it. Every genius had their own secrets, which was normal.
Moreover, he was likely from an extremely prominent family, probably with some family secrets.
However, how did Huo Yuhao, with only a first soul ring of ten years, and being just a one-ringed Soul Master, manage to contend with Shui Wuya?
Although he ultimately lost, it was still quite remarkable.
With the end of the match, the entire freshman assessment was dominated by the shocking performances of Shui Wuya and Huo Yuhao.
"In the future, these two may become the only rising twin stars of Shrek," Yan Shaozhe sighed.
"Well, I won't waste your time anymore. Go back and rest well."

Shrek Inner Courtyard, Sea God's Island.
Elder Xuan brought Huo Yuhao to Mu Lao. The latter appeared to be a very old man, in his twilight years.
"This kid is really amazing. He was able to unleash such a powerful attack, quite scary," Elder Xuan praised.
Mu Lao didn't say anything. He first replenished some soul power for Huo Yuhao, alleviating his physical exhaustion.
After a moment, Huo Yuhao opened his eyes and saw two old men staring at him, which startled him.
"Don't be afraid, they probably want to ask you about what happened in the match," the voice of the Tianmeng Iceworm appeared in Huo Yuhao's mind, easing his tension.
"Kid, you're quite scary. You almost won against a Soul Elder as a Soul Master," Elder Xuan said with a smile.
"Tell us, did your eyes undergo any changes, or do you have a second Martial Soul?"
Huo Yuhao's heart trembled, but fortunately, he had already prepared his explanation. He admitted directly, "I also have a Twin Martial Soul, and my second Martial Soul is also ice-attributed."
"Although our Martial Soul fusion skill was interrupted by Shui Wuya, the fused soul power was retained in my body."
"So, would this also be considered a Martial Soul fusion skill?" Huo Yuhao asked nervously, looking at the two old men.
