Chapter 370 Emperor Hantian.
After Cain lost two clones in succession, Zhongli Wu, who was sitting on the viewing platform, could no longer sit still. This was a talent he had his eye on; how could he let him die here like this?
Just as Zhongli Wu stood up, intending to interfere with the match, an incredibly powerful aura locked onto him. Zhongli Wu was startled and looked up at the aura that had locked onto him. It was a disheveled old man eating a chicken leg.
Seeing Zhongli Wu looking over, Elder Xuan raised the wine pot and gave him a stern warning.
"Damn it, Shrek's Taotie has come too." Zhongli Wu angrily sat back down in his original seat. Now, with the addition of Shrek's Taotie, there are already three powerful individuals discovered in Mingdu. He dares not make a move rashly and leave himself vulnerable.
On the Soul Battle Stage, the dark gold bat that had been frozen into an ice sculpture flapped its wings and emerged, only to be met with Xiao Xiao's most powerful soul skill.
"Sixth Soul Skill, Emperor Frost Heaven!"
One moment the competition field was covered in snow, the next it was completely transformed into a world of ice and snow. The goose-feather-like snowflakes were raging wildly under the blowing wind, so much so that the two people who were clearly visible before lost sight of each other.
"Domain? Stop right there!" Zheng Zhan suddenly charged towards the two, his face instantly turning ashen. He really wanted to curse. The captain of the Mingyu Sect was almost defeated, and you're releasing a domain? What do you mean by that?
Xiao Xiao knew a thing or two about the Dark Gold Three-Headed Bat King martial soul, so since he had decided to kill, he couldn't let a third party interfere. The Domain Soul Skill directly caused Zheng Zhan to lose control of the match.
At this moment, Xiao Xiao's eyes were azure, and her whole body was not only as smooth and lustrous as jade, but also as white as snow, like an elf in the ice and snow.
With a clear, crisp shout, dazzling ice-blue light instantly spread across the sky, countless ice-blue shadows scattered and flew in all directions, and ice spikes several meters long suddenly burst forth from the snow without warning. In an instant, they transformed into a blooming ice flower.
Myriad Transformations of Ice Spikes! The Ice and Snow Maiden's third soul skill.
Faced with such a crisis, the remaining dark gold bats actually shattered and split apart, transforming into countless tiny bats that scattered and flew away, managing to escape from the dense attack of the Myriad Flower Ice Spikes.
However, they didn't completely escape; a small number of bats were hit and fell to the ground. Although they escaped death, the repeated blows were certainly not pleasant.
The remaining small bats slowly gathered together, and with a flash of light, Cain's figure reappeared. Unlike at the beginning, Cain's aura was extremely weak at this moment, and the three-headed bat behind him had become one head.
"Don't worry, your younger brother will come to join you soon." Xiao Xiao's cold, pretty face remained expressionless. Suddenly, all the raging wind and snow stopped in an indescribable way. In that instant, it seemed as if time and space had all stood still. Every snowflake froze in mid-air, and all the cold winds also stopped instantly.
In Cain's horrified gaze, extreme cold erupted from the depths of her bloodline. Then, starting from her chest, countless icy blue patterns instantly spread throughout her body. This froze not only Cain's body, but also the bloodline soul power and spiritual power of her entire spiritual sea.
As the ice and snow melted, the arena covered by the Emperor's Frost slowly returned to its original state. What appeared before everyone was a perfectly still ice sculpture.
"I won, referee." Xiao Xiao slowly breathed a sigh of relief. The domain soul skill brought by this sixth soul skill was really not an ordinary soul power consumption. In just a few minutes, it had consumed 40% of her total soul power.
Zheng Zhan quickly approached the ice sculpture and, after a brief attempt, knew he was helpless. The ice sculpture was extremely hard, and its temperature was terrifyingly low. He dared not even try to break it open; doing so would only hasten the death of the person inside.
"Quickly unseal him," Zheng Zhan ordered as he approached Xiao Xiao.
Upon seeing this, Xiao Xiao slightly raised her hand, and the solid ice covering Cain's entire body shattered directly. The next moment, Cain, who was kneeling on the ground, was breathing heavily.
The absolute low temperature that Di Hantian unleashed had completely eroded Cain's heart meridian and spiritual sea of consciousness, leaving him with no more than a few days to live. The fact that he was still breathing was merely a last gasp before death.
"Shrek wins the third match!" Seeing that Xiao Xiao was following his instructions, Zheng Zhan nodded slightly and announced.
"Referee, I concede the rest of the match and will make a substitution," Xiao Xiao said. Although she could still continue playing, she smiled helplessly at Dai Huabin, who was practically bursting with anticipation in the audience.
She's won three games in a row; it's time to give the rest of the team a chance to play.
"Shrek concedes defeat in the fourth match and makes a substitution. The next player from each team will enter the arena." Zheng Zhan announced immediately after acknowledging Xiao Xiao's concesion.
Without the slightest hesitation, Dai Huabin flashed onto the competition stage and greeted Xiao Xiao, who was approaching. He couldn't help but cup his hands in a respectful gesture. He always respected the strong, and in his eyes, Xiao Xiao was an invincible powerhouse. He was unconvinced by Qian Guming because the latter couldn't defeat his and Zhu Lu's Martial Soul Fusion Technique. If he were to lose even to Qian Guming in using a Martial Soul Fusion Technique, he would definitely keep a low profile from now on.
The subsequent matches were naturally quite boring. The two strongest members of Mingyu Sect were both beaten into incapacitated, and the remaining members naturally had little will to fight. After Dai Huabin defeated the two in succession, Mingyu Sect directly chose to admit defeat and surrender.
Mingyu Sect naturally forfeited their subsequent team match. Furthermore, compared to Shrek Academy's early finish, Tang Sect's match became a protracted struggle, as their opponent today was the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.
Although they were missing their key member, Bei Bei, Tang Tian, whom Wang Dong'er had brought in as a henchman, possessed extraordinary strength. He immediately killed two members of the Sun and Moon Team.
Two wars, two deaths.
When Zheng Zhan announced the death of the Sun Moon Team's second member, the entire audience erupted in uproar. This was the Sun Moon Empire, not the former Star Luo Empire. In the competition, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy team, symbolizing the Sun Moon Empire, had suffered two consecutive defeats at the hands of their opponents. How could the people not be furious?
Xiao Hongchen was so enraged that he almost lost his temper. In the ensuing tug-of-war, Xiao Hongchen took the lead and directly clashed with Tang Tian. Since Xiao Hongchen had not used any drugs to break through to the Soul Saint realm, he was naturally not much stronger than Tang Tian. In the end, both of them were severely injured and unable to fight any longer.
In the end, Tang Sect defeated Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy in six battles, forcing them to abandon the team battle and achieving a perfect record, just like Shrek Academy.
Wu Xuan spotted an unfamiliar figure in the Tang Clan team's rest area.
He was a very robust middle-aged man with short, fine hair like steel needles. He had a dignified appearance; his resolute face was as if sculpted by a knife. His eyes were brownish-yellow, with a faint golden glint. His gray robe could not completely conceal his bulging, strong muscles.
When the burly man saw Wu Xuan staring at him, he turned and grinned at Wu Xuan.
In that instant, Wu Xuan felt an aura as majestic and powerful as a mountain. The identity of this person was self-evident; it was none other than Er Ming, the Titan Giant Ape of Haotian Fortress.
