Seeing this, Shi Lei hurriedly activated Bedrock Bulwark again.

Soul Power surged around him, forming a solid bulwark-type dharma body with the Bedrock Shield as its physical core, steadily protecting both him and Tie Xin.

How could Neil Severn give up so easily? His gaze sharpened, and he unleashed his Second Soul Skill, Earth Thorn Assault.

Five sharp stone spikes burst up from the ground, carrying a fierce armor-piercing effect as they flew toward Shi Lei.

The stone spikes slammed hard into the Bedrock Bulwark, letting out shrill, grating sounds.

Though they failed to break through the bulwark, the Bedrock Bulwark dharma body was struck until its light flickered unsteadily.

How could Neil Severn let this chance slip by? He activated Earth Thorn Assault once more.

The five stone spikes did not fly out. Just then, Wang Baoqiang charged forward in a single stride and steadied the stone spikes on both arms.

Immediately after, he activated his secret technique, Earth and Stone Remolding. His hands seemed to possess miraculous power as he rapidly fused the five stone spikes together, turning them into a round great stone spike five or six meters long and nearly two meters in diameter.

He dropped to one knee and hoisted the great stone spike onto his shoulder.

Meiji Bo, who had rushed over from the side, breathed out Frost Dragon Breath, freezing the great stone spike and wrapping its surface in a layer of ice.

Just then, Xiao Yi's Life Force Awakening landed precisely on Neil Severn.

Neil Severn felt a vast surge of life force pour into his body. His whole body brimmed with power, and he had just broken through to the Soul King realm.

He threw his head back and roared. Behind him, the Iron Armor Dragon Lizard dharma body appeared in an instant.

That dharma body was awe-inspiring. The bone-spike hammer at the end of its tail suddenly spun several times, giving off bursts of whistling.

Finally, the tail hammer smashed fiercely into the rear end of the stone spike.

The great stone spike javelin shot out like a cannon shell, carrying a savage momentum as it screamed forward.

Wherever it passed, even the air was torn apart, producing a piercing sound.

The force and ferocity of that attack made Tie Xin and Shi Lei, trapped by the quicksand, pale in alarm.

Seeing this, Tie Xin did not dare hesitate in the slightest. He gripped the Mystic Iron Heavy Sword tightly and unleashed Armor-Piercing Strike.

A sharp sword aura shot from the tip of the blade and slashed viciously toward the great stone spike.

However, before the great stone spike, that sword aura was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot. It was knocked away at once, shattering only a few ice chips before vanishing without a trace.

Then, unobstructed, it crashed into the Bedrock Bulwark.

Shi Lei poured Soul Power madly into the Bedrock Shield with everything he had and shouted himself hoarse, "Hold it off for me!"

Blue veins bulged on his forehead, and sweat fell like rain. He had clearly used up every bit of strength in his body.

Unfortunately, things did not go as he wished.

With an earth-shaking boom, the bulwark dharma body finally could no longer bear the strain and shattered with a crash.

The Bedrock Shield was also smashed until a large section caved in, broken stones falling like raindrops.

Shi Lei felt a tremendous impact slam into him, and his body was blasted away like a kite with its string cut. Blood sprayed wildly from his mouth, and in the end, he hit the ground and passed out.

In the end, the shield shattered and the man flew, blood splashing within five steps!

Smoke and dust rolled, and the battle drums choked!

Tie Xin was also sent flying. He propped himself up with his sword and half-knelt, the web between his thumb and forefinger split open, while cracks appeared across the Mystic Iron Heavy Sword.

Fortunately, he had not lost consciousness.

Even so, he spat out a mouthful of blood, his face as pale as paper. Clearly, his injuries were far from light.

On the right battlefield, Du Gu Fu suddenly let out a long howl filled with fury. Clearly, true anger had been stirred in his heart.

The Swift Wind Battle Spear Lin Xiao had thrown at Xiao Yi moments ago had come through a gap in their defenses on the right.

Though Lin Xiao was Ma Wencai's opponent, that aggressive axe aura just now had been sent out by Lei Gang.

How could that not enrage him?

At this moment, Du Gu Fu used a poison technique.

His eyes sharpened, and the Third Soul Ring, Golden Centipede Thousand Split Thrust, suddenly lit up.

In an instant, countless incomparably sharp golden centipede spikes shot out. These centipede spikes contained neurotoxin and carried a chilling sharpness as they poured down toward Lei Gang and Lin Xiao like a torrential storm.

Calling them oversized Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needles would not be an exaggeration.

Once struck by them, the consequences would be unimaginable.

There was something about Du Gu Fu and Zhu Wuneng: not only were their martial souls of high quality, but their soul rings had also been taken from high-grade top-tier soul beasts, and the soul skills they carried were all extremely outstanding.

Lei Gang and Lin Xiao were instantly thrown into panic.

The Lightning Axe and Swift Wind Spear in their hands were not suited for defense to begin with. Faced with the golden centipede spikes blotting out the sky as they came at them, they were at a loss for a moment.

However, the two of them had, after all, worked together with perfect coordination. At this critical moment, they quickly unleashed their Combination Skill—Wind Thunder Double Absolute.

Electric light flickered over the Lightning Axe, while wind howled within the swift wind spear. The two forces blended together, forming a powerful surge of energy that barely managed to shatter the Golden Centipede Thousand Split Thrust filling the sky.

However, how could Du Gu Fu stop there?

In secret, he quietly activated his Second Soul Skill, Netherworld Poison Shadow.

A dark cyan poisonous mist rapidly spread from around his body. Like a ghost, the toxic fog silently permeated the air.

Lei Gang and Lin Xiao instantly felt their bodies grow heavy. Their movements also became sluggish, leaving them trapped in a difficult state of area-wide stiffness and slowing.

Immediately after, Du Gu Fu's gaze sharpened, and he decisively activated his First Soul Skill, Azure Scale Poison Fire.

This fire could release high-temperature Fire Poison. After being strengthened by the Flame Heart Apricot Delight, its toxicity far surpassed other poisons, making it a terrifying existence.

The Azure Scale Poison Fire shot out like a nimble fire serpent, instantly igniting the lingering miasma of Netherworld Poison Shadow that had been spreading through the air, as well as the golden foot spikes driven deep into the ground.

In an instant, a hundred golden foot spikes swiftly melted under the high-temperature Fire Poison, turning into crimson poison nails, while Dark Gold gas mixed into the poisonous mist.

At the same time, the lingering miasma of Netherworld Poison Shadow was completely set ablaze. In the blink of an eye, the surrounding space was dyed a ghastly green, as though it had been dragged into a terrifying abyss.

When these Soul Skills combined and intertwined with one another, the horrifying scene was enough to make one's hair stand on end. Du Gu Fu named it "Netherworld Purgatory."

This counted as a growth-type Combination Skill. His Fourth Soul Skill could also be added to it, and in the future, his Fifth and Sixth Soul Skills might be able to merge into it as well.

However, at this moment, he had no intention of adding anything more.

Because right then, Ma Wencai, who had been utterly ashamed by the earlier flaw in his defense, his face flushed bright red, made his move.

He had also received Xiao Yi's Life Force Awakening, and his strength instantly soared to Level 47.

Ma Wencai stepped with a firm, measured gait and stretched his neck to let out a long cry. "Third Soul Skill—Blazing Sun Wheel!"

This was the Soul Skill of the 1,500-year Ninth Grade Soul Beast, Blazing Winged Spirit Luan.

In truth, although his Martial Soul Rank was low, the Soul Rings he had obtained were all fairly good, especially his Third Soul Ring.

In an instant, his Sunlight Brocade Chicken Martial Soul manifested in midair, its entire body radiating dazzling light.

Along with the eruption of his vast Soul Power, the Sunlight Brocade Chicken spun in the air at astonishing speed. Thousands of strands of blazing radiance rapidly converged, transforming into a golden sun wheel over ten feet across.

The golden sun wheel, infused with Sun Yang True Fire, blazed with intense light, evaporating the surrounding moisture into a white rainbow.

Immediately after, the golden sun wheel roared out, carrying a majestic, overwhelming force as it smashed viciously toward Lei Gang and Lin Xiao.

By the time all the dust had settled, the battlefield was a complete mess.

Lei Gang and Lin Xiao were in no better condition than Niu Ben and Bai Jin. Their bodies were covered in burn marks, and black poisonous blood still seeped from their wounds. Clearly, they had already been poisoned.

Agony was written all over their faces, and their bodies trembled continuously from the pain.

At this moment, Su Yao looked at Tie Xin, the only one left on the field and already half-crippled, and understood that the situation was hopeless.

She sighed helplessly, slowly raised her hand, and announced their surrender.

When the referee's resonant voice finished announcing the result.

Su Yao was already burning with anxiety. She rushed over as though there were wind beneath her feet, crouching down to treat Niu Ben and Bai Jin's wounds.

The severity of the injuries they had suffered this time was beyond imagination. Five of them were seriously wounded and unconscious.

Looking at their battered, barely breathing figures, like candles guttering in the wind, Su Yao felt a sharp stab of pain in her chest. Her eyes reddened, tears swirling in them, nearly spilling out.

Just then, their teacher and the physicians also came hurrying over anxiously from the corridor in the distance.

Suddenly, Su Yao sensed a gentle aura approaching from beside her. She instinctively looked up and saw that it was Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi raised her hands slightly, white light radiating from her palms. That light was soft and holy—it was her Third Soul Skill, Heavenly Rain Dew.

A vast curtain of light spread from her hands, enveloping all six members of Ryan Team, including Tie Xin.

This Soul Skill could restore 50% of one's life force. It did not directly restore 50% of their injuries.

However, to reach this upper limit, Xiao Yi had to provide a large amount of life force herself.

After she finished using this Soul Skill, their lives had already been stabilized.

Immediately after, Xiao Yi's gaze swept toward Zhu Wuneng, Du Gu Fu, and Ma Wencai behind her.

The three instantly understood, and with seamless cooperation, they attacked at the same time, withdrawing the fire and poison inflicted on Niu Ben, Bai Jin, Lei Gang, and Lin Xiao.

Xiao Yi did not stop. Immediately afterward, she used Life Force Field.

In an instant, a warm and majestic surge of life force flowed continuously into the six of them like a murmuring stream.

During this process, their wounds slowly began to scab over. The skin that had originally been charred by fire fell away like withered leaves, revealing tender new flesh beneath.

Their breathing also gradually became smooth. Their once hurried and weak breaths slowly grew steady and strong.

All these signs showed that their condition had clearly improved a great deal.

Watching this scene, Su Yao thanked them repeatedly. "Thank you. Truly, thank you so much!"

Tie Xin struggled to rise at this point. Together with the teacher who had arrived afterward, he gave a slight bow in thanks.

After all, on this cruel and intense soul master competition stage, how many people would, after a match, unhesitatingly consume a large amount of their own Life Soul Power to lend a hand to the opposing team's gravely injured members?

At the sight, many spectators rose to their feet and applauded, the thunderous clapping going on for a long time.

There were also quite a few cheers.

"Exiled Immortal!"

"Exiled Immortal!"

"Exiled Immortal!"

Ryan Team's Soul King–level physician hurried forward and carefully examined Niu Ben and the others.

After a thorough check, he let out a long breath and exhaled a murky sigh. "Thank goodness. Little Ben and the others were treated in time. Their injuries aren't serious anymore—minor wounds, you could say."

"However, they still have some internal injuries that need rest and recuperation. If we increase the dosage of medicine and recovery spirit herbs, they'll be able to return to the field after a few days of rest."

"This Exiled Immortal not only has outstanding soul skill effects and exceptional control, but after such a huge battle, he actually still had so much Soul Power left to rescue them. Unbelievable!"

Ryan Team's team leader was filled with relief. He raised a hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead and muttered to himself, "As long as they're all right. As long as they're all right."

He had originally been full of anticipation, hoping they could achieve better results in this competition than last time. What a pity.

Fortunately, the team had ten members. With Tie Xin plus the other two, there were still three Soul Ancestors left, so they could still fight on in the arena.

Their results probably wouldn't drop a tier, right?

"Ah, if I'd known this would happen, I wouldn't have sent most of our main force into this match. Now that things have turned out like this, it really is worrying."
