Chapter 26 Debut, Soul-Shattering Spear.
"This is outrageous!" Dai Huabin roared in anger, brandishing his tiger claws as he lunged at Wu Xuan again.
Wu Xuan, brimming with fighting spirit, his eyes flashing with cold light, shot out like an arrow. With a slight twist of his wrists, a gale condensed in his palms!
"Wind-Splitting Fist!"
The rapidly spinning gale accompanied Wu Xuan's two punches, and Dai Huabin groaned, staggering backward dozens of meters.
A sharp pain, as if being torn apart, shot through his arms, causing Dai Huabin's face to contort.
Before Dai Huabin could regain his footing, Wu Xuan pursued again.
"Sky-Piercing Peak!"
Wu Xuan leaped into the air, the powerful wind pressure completely eliminating any sway in his leap, multiplying the force of his fall.
Dai Huabin instinctively looked up, only to find Wu Xuan's knee already in front of him. Dai Huabin's formidable combat skills once again compelled his body to dodge.
"Bang—" A tooth-grinding sound rang out as Wu Xuan's knee slammed heavily into Dai Huabin's shoulder.
Under the impact of the immense force, Dai Huabin's body flew backward, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.
Wu Xuan raised his left leg and kicked at the flying Dai Huabin from a distance. This move was the skill brought by the Wind God Winged Dragon's external soul bone, Shadow Whirlwind!
"It's over!" Wu Xuan cracked his neck and said coldly.
As soon as he finished speaking, a blue whirlwind shot out, carrying the still-unfallen Dai Huabin towards the edge of the arena.
"Huabin!" Zhu Lu, who was pinned down by Nanmen Yun'er, noticed Dai Huabin about to be blown off the stage out of the corner of her eye and couldn't help but cry out in alarm.
A flash of cold light streaked past her eyes, and Zhu Lu's hair stood on end as she quickly regained her senses. Her cat-like claws clashed with Nanmen Yun'er's jade blade. Sparks flew as Zhu Lu's body was forced backward.
Zhu Lu and Nanmen Yun'er are both agility-type Soul Masters with similar cultivation levels and roughly the same Martial Soul quality. With Wu Xuan's 100% speed boost, Zhu Lu naturally struggles to compete.
Meanwhile, the battle between Qian Guming and Cui Yajie is also one-sided, with Cui Yajie barely making a dent.
"Third Soul Skill, White Tiger Vajra Transformation!"
Dai Huabin roared, his tiger claws tearing apart Wu Xuan's Shadow Whirlwind.
Stepping forward, Dai Huabin's tiger paws grew even larger, the blades that sprang from them turning bright silver. Most remarkably, his entire body was enveloped in a strong golden light, as if he were gilded. His blood-red eyes gleamed with a bloodthirsty light.
"Ouch, Wu Xuan! I'm going to cripple you!" Dai Huabin roared, charging at Wu Xuan again.
"Thick skin!" Wu Xuan cursed inwardly, a jade-green breeze rising from his hands.
"Third Soul Skill, Jade Wind!"
*Snap!* Wu Xuan clasped his hands together, and a jade-colored breeze surged from his body, instantly enveloping Dai Huabin's charging body and transforming him into a sharply defined jade crystal.
Having instantly controlled Dai Huabin, Wu Xuan exhaled a breath of turbid air. His gaze then slowly shifted to the other two battlefields. At this moment, Zhu Lu and Cui Yajie on the opposing side were only able to parry, completely unable to cause any trouble.
Should he reveal his other martial soul now? Perhaps only by letting the higher-ups of Shrek Academy know his potential could he have a smoother path in the academy.
Thinking this, Wu Xuan didn't hesitate. With a thought, the jade crystal controlling Dai Huabin suddenly emitted a series of subtle cracking sounds.
"Crack~ Crack! Bang!"
The crystal shattered, and Dai Huabin's figure charged out again.
"Die! White Tiger Blazing Light Wave!"
Dai Huabin roared, unleashing a ball of white light towards Wu Xuan.
"Hmph!" Wu Xuan snorted coldly, his left hand forming a claw, silver light instantly radiating from his palm. With a flick of his left arm, a dazzling spear appeared in his hand.
The light faded, revealing a spear blade entirely silver, occupying nearly half of the spear shaft, while the shaft was dark silver, adorned with purple rhomboid crystals at the joint, making the entire spear look incredibly magnificent.
Wu Xuan thrust his spear forward, instantly shattering the white light wave spewed out by Dai Huabin. The dizziness that surged through his mind startled Dai Huabin, causing him to stagger backward.
"Another twin martial soul!" Yan Shaozhe on the viewing platform excitedly stood up.
"Is this a spirit-attribute weapon martial soul?" Qian Duoduo muttered to himself, looking at the spear in Wu Xuan's hand.
Dai Huabin's expression was uncertain, his eyes bloodshot. He turned and sprinted towards the battle circle where Zhu Lu and Nanmen Yun'er were fighting.
"Zhu Lu!" Dai Huabin shouted.
Before Zhu Lu could even look up, Nanmen Yun'er kicked her, sending her staggering back several steps.
"Cui Yajie!" Zhu Lu screamed.
Cui Yajie, pale-faced, had taken a blow from Qian Guming's staff, blood trickling from her mouth. Her first soul skill, Charm, had still been successfully activated, causing Nanmen Yun'er to falter for two seconds.
The referee grabbed Cui Yajie's arm, pulling her off the arena, and loudly announced, "Cui Yajie is eliminated!"
Qian Guming and Nanmen Yun'er, realizing the situation was dire, instantly rushed towards Zhu Lu.
"Xiao Ming, Yun'er, get out of the way. Leave the rest to me," Wu Xuan calmly commanded.
The two retreated swiftly, naturally not disobeying Wu Xuan's orders.
Holding the Soul-Breaking Spear, Wu Xuan spoke calmly in a voice only he could hear: "Soul-Breaking Spear, this will be your first battle before the world."
Qian Duoduo, standing in the stands, frowned slightly and whispered, "The Dai and Zhu families actually have a pair of spirit souls that complement each other in this generation? Why didn't that kid stop them? Didn't he know?"
While it's rare for two spirit masters to have complementary spirit souls and possess a spirit soul fusion skill, it's not entirely unbelievable at Shrek Academy, which gathers almost all the genius young spirit masters on the continent.
After all, a spirit soul fusion skill had already appeared once before in this year's freshman assessment.
Moreover, the relationship between the White Tiger Duke's lineage and the Netherworld Earl Zhu family is practically an open secret in the spirit master world.
Therefore, in the eyes of Shrek's higher-ups, Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu's spirit soul fusion skill is less impressive than Wu Xuan's twin spirit souls.
Yan Shaozhe smiled without speaking, his gaze fixed on Wu Xuan.
In the center of the arena, Dai Huabin roared like a tiger, and with the roar, his entire body swelled again, black and white spirit power patterns surging out wildly.
Zhu Lu bit her lip, her entire body enveloped in a faint black light, her form ethereal, appearing almost transparent. She lunged at Dai Huabin with outstretched arms.
The auras of the White Tiger and the Netherworld Cat merged completely at this moment. The feeling was wondrous; a surge of rich soul power erupted from their fused bodies like a geyser. The black and white light merged seamlessly within the spreading golden halo, a feeling of sublimation.
"First Soul Skill, Soul Pressure!"
A jet-black soul ring shone from Wu Xuan's body.
"A ten-thousand-year soul ring?" The teachers on the viewing platform all paled.
Wu Xuan's Soul-Breaking Spear trembled, and terrifying spiritual power surged forth from the purple crystal, the immense difference in spiritual power causing everyone's vision to blur.
"Pfft!" Under the pressure of this spiritual power, Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu's fusion failed, they coughed up blood, and both collapsed to the ground.
"You think you can use a Soul Fusion Technique in front of me? Dream on!!" Wu Xuan snorted coldly, his soul pressure receding. The Soul-Breaking Spear in his hand trembled and dissipated into starlight.
"The match is over. The elimination round is over. Wu Xuan's team has won." The referee stepped forward and announced loudly.
"We won! Brother Xuan! We won!!" Qian Guming rushed towards Wu Xuan and shouted.
"Class monitor! We are the champions!" Nanmen Yun'er arrived in front of Wu Xuan before Qian Guming and rushed into his arms.
Qian Guming was secretly annoyed but didn't care. He opened his arms and hugged the two of them.
On the other side, Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu, who had fainted, were taken away by the healing department teacher.
"Haha! Three very good young men." Yan Shaozhe laughed loudly in the stands.
"Hmm! Especially that young man named Wu Xuan, with a spirit attribute weapon soul, not bad, really not bad!" Qian Duoduo exclaimed, his eyes shining.
Yan Shaozhe looked at Qian Duoduo with a playful expression: "Old Qian, I have to remind you beforehand. This kid's teacher mentioned him to me before, and the main reason I came to watch the freshman assessment this time is for him."
Qian Duoduo looked suspicious and said: "Old Yan, you're not playing me, are you? A wind element martial soul, possibly a mutated Soul-Breaking Spear martial soul, could that alarm Elder Mu?"
"Wind element? That's not ordinary wind. That kid's wind, with the blessing of his first soul skill, has already reached the level of an ultimate martial soul. To be able to have twins with a half-ultimate martial soul wind, do you think that mutated Soul-Breaking Spear is an ordinary mutated martial soul?"
Yan Shaozhe sighed. A martial soul that has almost reached the ultimate level? In that case, it's definitely impossible for him to recruit Wu Xuan to the Soul Guidance Department. Thinking of this, Qian Duoduo's face turned as uncomfortable as if he had swallowed a fly.
Yan Shaozhe noticed the changes in Qian Duoduo's facial expression and almost laughed out loud. But on the surface, he put on a calm and gentle appearance and sat down again.
Being able to annoy this stingy guy really made him feel good.
