Chapter 49 We are Shrek!
Chapter 50 We are Shrek!
Li Luo knelt on one knee, cold sweat instantly seeping from his forehead. The excruciating pain tearing through his mind made his whole body tremble uncontrollably.
But Huo Yuhao's attack did not stop there; another invisible and intangible soul whip was lashed out from the air.
This time, however, his target was not his opponent.
Du Qingyuan, who was locked in combat with Shao Feng and Ren Xingchi, suddenly felt a jolt throughout his body.
A surge of intense excitement erupted from the depths of my mind, instantly flowing through my limbs and bones, making me feel as if I were instantly "boiling over".
The circulation of soul power suddenly accelerated, the five senses became exceptionally sharp, and speed and strength also increased significantly!
This is the auxiliary effect of Huo Yuhao's first soul skill. Although he could defeat four opponents at once, Huo Yuhao did not choose to stand out and attack alone, but instead assisted Du Qingyuan.
Almost simultaneously, the second black spirit ring beneath Huo Yuhao's feet glowed with an eerie light.
Two invisible spiritual tendrils, like snakes emerging from their holes, silently coiled around Shao Feng and Ren Xingchi's bodies.
The two suddenly froze, alarm bells rang in their minds, and their movements became inexplicably slow and heavy, as if they were sinking into an invisible quagmire.
Du Qingyuan's icy blue pupils suddenly gleamed with a sharp light; this was an opportunity not to be missed!
His third spirit ring lit up, and two snow-white tails behind him suddenly extended, transforming into two long whips that tore through the air and lashed out!
Shao Feng gritted his teeth and urged his soul power, wanting to use his third soul skill, Shield Shadow Clone, to block Du Qingyuan's attack.
But he was horrified to discover that although his soul power was surging through his meridians, his third soul skill was stuck as if by some invisible thing and could not be released no matter what!
On the other side, Stephen Chow's face was also deathly pale, and his second soul skill, "Wrath of the Vajra," had inexplicably failed!
"impossible!"
The two stared at each other in horror, their eyes reflecting the two fox-tail whips that were sweeping towards them with overwhelming force.
The culprit behind Shao Feng and Ren Xingchi's soul skills failing was naturally Huo Yuhao.
His second soul skill, "Evil Touch - Soul Bind," not only greatly slows down the opponent's movements, but also has another very powerful control effect.
That is, as long as you are hit by this soul skill, one of the target's soul skills will be randomly sealed.
The duration of the seal depends on the difference in mental strength between the two parties.
With Huo Yuhao's current spiritual power at the Spirit Sea Realm, he should be able to seal their soul skills for a maximum of six seconds.
From Li Luo's defeat by Huo Yuhao to Du Qingyuan's two attacks under amplification, all of this happened in the blink of an eye.
As a result, the last member of the four-person team, who had remained outside the battle circle and had not yet made a move, was also caught off guard and had no time to react.
Shao Feng and Ren Xingchi watched helplessly as the two long whips hurtled through the air. Their soul skills, which they wanted to use, were sealed, and it was too late to change their moves in time.
However, just as the fox-tail whip was about to tear through their defenses, a semi-transparent glass wall appeared out of thin air without warning!
"Bang!!"
The long whip lashed fiercely against the surface of the glass wall, but the glass wall shimmered with light and didn't even show a single crack.
Du Qingyuan's pupils contracted, his gaze sweeping across the surroundings like lightning, and he shouted sharply, "Who is it?!"
Huo Yuhao's gaze shifted to the depths of the alley.
A hundred meters away, a figure slowly appeared in his line of sight.
The figure appeared little by little, as if it were being drawn out by a paintbrush.
Clearly, the other party had been in a state of concealment all along, and it would have been difficult to detect his presence if Huo Yuhao's mental detection had not covered him.
He was a man who looked to be around thirty years old, dressed in a plain-colored long robe, with a calm demeanor.
He held a translucent glass lamp in one hand, within which a strange purple-gold flame flickered, with flashes of lightning appearing between the flowing flames.
This is his martial spirit – Thunderfire Glazed Lamp.
Seven spirit rings swirled slowly beneath the man's feet, three purple and four black.
Despite not deliberately radiating his power as a Seventh-Ring Soul Saint, his aura still spread out quietly like an invisible tide.
Du Qingyuan also noticed the person's presence at this moment, and his pupils suddenly contracted.
He never expected that these four Soul Venerables would be accompanied by a Soul Saint-level expert!
"teacher!"
Apart from Li Luo, who was still kneeling on the ground with his head in his hands and covered in cold sweat, Shao Feng, Ren Xingchi, and the last person spoke up at the same time, their respectful tones carrying a hint of relief.
The Soul Saint's figure flickered, and he had already withdrawn his Martial Soul.
Then, with a few nimble movements, he covered a hundred meters and landed silently in front of everyone.
He first glanced at Ren Xingchi and the others, his face expressionless, revealing neither joy nor anger, before finally fixing his gaze on Huo Yuhao.
The fact that he could defeat Li Luo so decisively shows that this younger boy is indeed someone to be taken seriously.
The initial shock of facing the Soul Saint had subsided for Du Qingyuan. After all, this place was under the jurisdiction of the Spirit Transmission Tower, and as the personal disciple of the Tower Master, he had his own reliance.
He stepped forward and stood beside Huo Yuhao, looking at the Soul Saint, and asked in a deep voice, "Who are you? Are these people your students?"
"My name is Chen Jin." The Soul Saint's gaze swept indifferently over Du Qingyuan: "They are indeed my students. I apologize for the trouble I have caused you both today."
The other party's nonchalant attitude fueled Du Qingyuan's inner rage.
He remained composed, but his voice turned colder: "You should be aware of the rule that private duels are strictly prohibited around the Spirit Pagoda."
Chen Jin remained calm and composed, simply stating, "I am a teacher at Shrek Academy. The four of them are here to complete the academy's final assessment task."
Shrek Academy?
Du Qingyuan and Huo Yuhao were both taken aback upon hearing this, and subconsciously exchanged a glance.
They weren't shocked by the identities of these people, as they already had some guesses in their minds.
What stunned them was how Shrek's identity had anything to do with what was happening today.
Does being born into Shrek Academy mean one can disregard the rules established by the Spirit Pagoda?
Chen Jin's words and attitude truly refreshed Huo Yuhao's understanding of Shrek Academy.
The people he encountered when he went to Shrek Academy before were never this arrogant!
Huo Yuhao couldn't help but speak up, "Even if it's for the sake of the assessment, you shouldn't disregard the rules and act recklessly. If it results in injury or death, who will be responsible?"
"With me here, nothing will go wrong."
Chen Jin remained expressionless, her tone almost cold and indifferent: "Besides, nothing has really happened yet. Why are you two juniors making such a fuss?"
A hint of impatience flashed in his eyes; he had initially valued Huo Yuhao's talent and strength to some extent.
But seeing that a mere Soul Master dared to question him to his face, the little bit of admiration in his heart turned into a hidden anger.
Meanwhile, the excruciating pain in Li Luo's mind finally began to subside.
He gasped for breath, slowly rising to his feet, his forehead streaked with cold sweat, clinging awkwardly to his skin.
He raised his eyes, his gaze sweeping over Huo Yuhao with a complex expression.
This boy, who was even younger than him, crushed his pride as a Shrek Academy student with a single blow.
"teacher----"
He called out in a hoarse voice, his voice still trembling with pain.
Chen Jin coldly swept her gaze over her four students, her tone devoid of any warmth: "This assessment is a complete failure for everyone; each of you will lose ten points."
As soon as he finished speaking, all four of them turned pale.
Shao Feng and Ren Xingchi clenched their fists instinctively; they had indeed failed.
If the teacher hadn't intervened at the last minute, those two strikes with the fox-tail whip would have been enough to seriously injure them and send them crashing to the ground.
"I'm gone."
Chen Jin said no more and turned to walk towards the alley entrance: "Your final exams aren't over yet, it's time to go to the next city."
He actually intended to leave with his people.
Regarding the conflict that just occurred within the territory of the Spirit Pagoda, and the unauthorized actions of Li Luo and others.
From beginning to end, he showed not a single hint of sincere apology.
That matter-of-fact attitude made it seem as if Shrek Academy was born with the privilege of being above the rules.
"senior!"
Du Qingyuan gritted his teeth and couldn't help but take a step forward, his voice filled with suppressed anger.
"Aren't you showing a blatant disrespect to my Spirit Pagoda by leaving like this?"
