Chapter 76: Yu Xiaogang's Excitement!
The moment Zhu Zhuyun and Dai Weisi released their Ghostly White Tiger fusion, a surging aura immediately filled the arena.
Beneath a burst of radiance, a massive black-striped White Tiger, as large as a hill, appeared on the competition stage.
The White Tiger had extraordinarily unique purple eyes filled with icy intent and the pride exclusive to a king.
"Sister, they actually succeeded?!" Zhu Zhuqing exclaimed when she saw Zhu Zhuyun and Dai Weisi successfully execute their Martial Soul Fusion Technique.
The release of the Martial Soul Fusion Technique not only had strict restrictions on the types of Martial Souls but also demanded a high degree of coordination between Soul Masters.
However, once it was unleashed, even if the opponent was a Soul Master of a higher realm, a Soul Master with the Martial Soul Fusion Technique would possess strength that was no less than their opponent's in a short period.
Moreover, they were currently facing Zhu Zhuyun and Dai Weisi from the Martial Soul Hall team.
"Hu Liena, now that we've unleashed our Martial Soul Fusion Technique, you're already doomed," Zhu Zhuyun and Dai Weisi's voices intertwined within the Ghostly White Tiger.
As their voices fell, the Ghostly White Tiger on the stage instantly transformed into a white streak of light, as swift as lightning.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Amidst a continuous series of collisions, except for Hu Liena, Yan, and Xie Yue, the other members of the Martial Soul Hall team were blasted off the stage with just a single strike from the ferocious attacks of the Ghostly White Tiger.
With a body length of eight meters and a height of four meters, the Ghostly White Tiger roared deafeningly into the sky after dealing with a few individuals, causing the onlooking Martial Soul Hall Academy students to jump in fear.
"What a terrifying Martial Soul Fusion Technique!"
"Is this the Martial Soul Fusion Technique of the Star Luo Empire's royal family?!"
Watching Xie Yue and the others on the stage dodging the Ghostly White Tiger's attacks, many Martial Soul Hall Academy students felt worried for them.
"Do you think Senior Xie Yue and the others will lose today?"
"Damn it!"
...
Some students were very displeased at the thought of their Martial Soul Hall students losing to someone from the Star Luo Empire.
On the competition stage, upon seeing Hu Liena narrowly avoiding her claw once again, the Ghostly White Tiger taunted, "What's wrong? Wasn't your attack fierce just now?"
"Why are you only dodging now?"
Hu Liena's delicate and charming face showed little nervousness; it was only her sweat-soaked hair clinging to her cheeks that emphasized a hint of charm.
"With your current level of soul power, how long can you maintain the Martial Soul Fusion state?"
"At most, in another thirty seconds, your fusion state will be undone," Hu Liena narrowed her fox-like eyes and teased.
While the Martial Soul Fusion Technique was powerful, it had its weaknesses. For instance, it consumed a substantial amount of a Soul Master's soul power and, in some cases, a significant amount of mental strength.
"Heh."
"Your guess is indeed correct."
"But do you think we didn't prepare for this?"
After Zhu Zhuyun's mocking voice, an invisible surge of soul power gradually emanated from the Ghostly White Tiger.
Sensing the steadily rising soul power, Hu Liena was momentarily stunned and then exclaimed, "You're actually using external items!"
To recover so much soul power in a short time, unless they had a food system Soul Master, the other party must have taken some kind of elixir.
"It's not an official match, after all. If you have them, you can use them too," Dai Weisi retorted, his voice tinged with sarcasm. "We have plenty of things like that."
Although he said so, Dai Weisi was actually quite pained. The elixir he and Zhu Zhuyun had taken was extremely rare, even within their Star Luo Royal Family. This type of elixir could boost their soul power to its maximum within a short time and enhance their combat abilities.
However, this type of medicine also had side effects: it would cause weakness within three minutes. Therefore, Dai Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun had to defeat Hu Liena and her team within that time frame.
In the spectator stands, upon noticing the abnormal recovery of soul power within the Ghostly White Tiger, many Martial Soul Hall students began to curse.
"Shameless! Using external items!"
"Violation!"
However, in the face of their accusations, some followers of the Star Luo Royal Family coldly retorted.
"This isn't an official match, you can use them too."
"Yeah, you can use them too! Can't the students of the Martial Soul Hall Academy afford elixirs?"
...
The argument in the stands caught the attention of Juedouluo Yueguan, who frowned slightly.
He naturally noticed the unusual recovery of soul power within the Ghostly White Tiger. In a regular match, external items were absolutely not allowed.
However, the next moment, he suddenly felt a much stronger surge of soul power emanating from Hu Liena and her teammates.
A faint golden halo seemed to drape over Hu Liena and Yan and Xie Yue.
That extraordinarily unique sense of sanctity and nobility caused the Martial Soul Hall and Star Luo Empire students who had been arguing to fall silent.
In less than a few breaths, Hu Liena and her team's soul power had already reached their peak state. Their wounds were even beginning to heal, and even their scars had disappeared.
It was as if their previous battle had never happened!
This scene left even Juedouluo Yueguan and the Soul Master from the Dai Family speechless.
Soul power recovery was one thing, but why had their injuries also healed?
There were no Healing system Soul Masters on the stage now, so how did they achieve this?
"Hehe, I didn't expect the Martial Soul Hall to be willing to use such precious items for a few talented individuals," the Dai Family's Soul Master could only assume that the Martial Soul Hall, like their Star Luo Royal Family, had taken out valuable elixirs as a last resort to avoid losing to their opponents.
Juedouluo Yue guan, while not knowing exactly what Hu Liena and the others had taken, understood that it was definitely not something simple. It must have been extremely precious.
Therefore, in response to the Dai Family's Soul Master's words, he simply responded with a faint "hehe," causing the latter to grip the armrest of his chair tightly and crush it.
On the stage, Hu Liena and her team were naturally shocked by the effect of Su Yun's leaves, but they quickly regained their composure and turned their attention to the Ghostly White Tiger.
"Now, do you still think you can win?"
Facing Hu Liena and her team, who had recovered to their peak state within a short time, Zhu Zhuyun and Dai Weisi were clearly shocked. However, they couldn't afford to be discouraged at this point and said, "Do you think you can defeat us just because you've recovered your state?"
"Let us show you the terror of my Ghostly White Tiger!"
He wished he could rush up right now and engage in close combat with the Abyssal White Tiger!
However, for the sake of victory, he restrained himself and obediently cooperated with Xie Yue and Hu Liena, engaging in a tug-of-war battle.
As expected by Hu Liena, after three minutes, the Abyssal White Tiger completely lost its combat ability. The moment Davis and Zhu Zhuqing separated their martial souls, they were directly blasted out of the competition stage by Yan and Xie Yue's attacks, crashing into the crowd of the Star Luo Empire.
After landing, both of them spewed a mouthful of blood.
It could be said that they were severely injured, causing chaos among the people of the Star Luo Empire.
The students from the Shrek Academy, on the other hand, were excited to see Hu Liena and the others suddenly turn the tide and win the match!
"I knew we could win!"
"Hmph! The people from the Star Luo Empire thought they were well-prepared, but they didn't know that we had our own tricks!"
"Speaking of which, Senior Xie Yue and the others recovered their soul power so quickly! What good stuff did they use?"
"Hey! Such good stuff can't be enjoyed by the likes of us. It's definitely something only talents like Sister Nana can use!"
...
In the spectator's stand, upon seeing their prince and princess vomit blood, the Soul Masters from the Dai family couldn't hold back their anger. One of them angrily said, "Lord Chrysanthemum Douluo, your students from the Spirit Hall have gone too far. It was just a friendly match, yet they used such heavy-handed tactics!"
Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan sneered and said, "If you're not satisfied, you can complain to the Pope."
"Don't think I don't know that the Star Luo Empire's internal competitions allow the use of external items. Just now, you used external items. If you had won, you would have found an excuse for yourselves."
"If you want to make a name for yourself on the continent by stepping on my Spirit Hall's people, don't think I'm unaware of your tricks."
With that, he waved his sleeve and left.
The Dai family's Soul Master, left alone, had a face that alternated between pale and red. In the end, he could only leave with Davis and the others, who were injured.
...
At night.
At the dining table.
Hu Liena pestered Su Yun and happily said, "Little Junior Brother, tell Sister about that leaf of yours. How can it have such strong recovery power?"
Yan and Xie Yue were also curious about why Su Yun's leaves not only restored their soul power but also brought them into an extremely excited state, healing their injuries and improving their physical condition, as if they had merged with nature.
Zhu Zhuqing, on the side, learned that the key factor in Hu Liena and the others' victory today was Su Yun. She also looked at Su Yun with hopeful eyes.
Surrounded by everyone, Su Yun just smiled faintly and shared the story of the Blue Silver Emperor Leaf he had obtained through the mutation of his first soul skill, which he had acquired when he obtained his second soul ring with Bibi Dong.
"Oh my god! No wonder, Little Brother Su Yun, you chose the path of an auxiliary soul master! With just this piece of Blue Silver Emperor Leaf, you can probably compare with auxiliary soul masters like Nine-Hearted Sea Thorn and Seven Treasure Glazed Tile!" Hu Liena covered her mouth and exclaimed.
Xie Yue nodded slightly. "This self-created soul skill is indeed powerful. It's no wonder Pope wants to take you as her disciple. Your martial soul is indeed a tier above mine and Yan's."
"Hey hey hey! Xie Yue, why do you have to include me when you praise Su Yun? And you even belittled my martial soul!"
"My martial soul is very strong, okay!"
Yan was quite dissatisfied. "Can't you give me some face in front of Little Sister Zhuqing?
(︶︿︶)"
Hu Liena rolled her eyes and said, "Little Sister Zhuqing only has eyes for our Little Junior Brother. Yan, you should go cool off somewhere."
Yan's eyes lost focus, as if struck by lightning. "Nana, I didn't expect you to abandon me too."
"No!~~~~"
Seeing Yan acting all dramatic, Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but smile.
The little girl's smile instantly made the atmosphere at the dining table warm.
"We won this time thanks to Little Brother Su Yun. Next time, we'll have to rely on our own strength!" Hu Liena said seriously.
"Yeah."
Xie Yue nodded. "In the next match, Hu Liena and I must successfully practice our martial soul fusion skill."
"But no matter what, today's victory was thanks to Su Yun."
Xie Yue changed the subject and said, "Su Yun, Little Junior Brother, let's toast to you together."
"Yes, that's right, a toast to you."
Yan and Hu Liena also raised their glasses of fruit juice.
Zhu Zhuqing followed Hu Liena's lead and raised her glass of fruit juice to toast Su Yun.
Faced with the "toast" from everyone, Su Yun naturally didn't refuse and picked up the nearby glass of fruit juice to make a toast.
...
The news of the defeat of the Star Luo Empire and others by the students of the Spirit Hall spread throughout the continent the day after the competition ended.
Previously, when the Star Luo Empire defeated the Tian Dou Empire, they had used similar tactics, causing the people of the Tian Dou Empire to grit their teeth in frustration.
But today, when they heard that the Star Luo Empire had lost to the Spirit Hall after using martial soul fusion techniques, they couldn't help but be delighted.
After all, the enemy's enemy is a friend.
Meanwhile, in Soto City, within Shrek Academy.
Yu Xiaogang sat in his wheelchair, looking at the news in the newspaper. When he learned that the students of the Star Luo Royal Academy had been defeated by the students of the Spirit Hall after using martial soul fusion techniques, he was slightly surprised.
He knew how powerful the Abyssal White Tiger of the Star Luo Empire was, but he didn't expect that the new generation of Spirit Hall students had become so strong.
While Yu Xiaogang was lost in thought, Dai Mubai happened to pass by his window.
Yu Xiaogang caught a glimpse of Dai Mubai.
Suddenly, several key words appeared in his mind.
Dai! White Tiger Martial Soul!
The royal family of the Star Luo Empire is also surnamed Dai! Gasp!
Yu Xiaogang's pupils shrank, and he suddenly felt that he had realized Dai Mubai's identity!
