A Wave Sweeping Through (Part 1)

Amid the chaos, Fei Xiang used the advantage of a Flying Soul Master to swiftly fly toward the High-Level Elite Wolf Bandit. His speed and agility made him like a fish in water in the air, completely offsetting the wolf bandit's advantage in nimble, flexible footwork.

He pressed the High-Level Elite Wolf Bandit tightly, giving it no chance to escape, and ultimately succeeded in holding it back.

However, the danger to the youths had not been lifted.

Then an accident happened. A body suddenly flew backward from the battlefield to the side, hurtling straight into the crowd.

It was a village woman, Tie Fu'er's mother, a Soul Ancestor from the Violent Gold Bear Zhao Family, who had just held off a large number of wolf bandits on her own.

Her body tumbled through the air, a mouthful of fresh blood spraying out, and the sound of her landing on the ground was heartbreaking.

"Mother!"

"Aunt Zhao!"

At the same time, a group of wolf bandits attacked from the side. Among them were three elite wolf bandits: one Soul Ancestor-level High-Level Elite Wolf Bandit and two Soul Elder-level elite wolf bandits.

This threw the young soul masters, who had already been locked in a bitter fight, into even greater danger.

The young soul masters began unleashing their Soul Skills one after another, trying to hold off the enemy's attacks.

"First Soul Skill—Giant Hammer Strike, Giant Spirit Hammer Technique!"

Tie Fu'er hurried over, swinging the Wild Great Hammer. Every blow carried a powerful shock force, knocking away the wolf bandits that drew near.

"Second Soul Skill—Ostrich Shockwave!"

Mao Jiajia used the speed and strength of his ostrich martial soul, his powerful legs driving a ring-shaped current of Soul Power as he launched a charging attack that could deal heavy damage while also adding a knockback effect.

The wolf bandits that came charging in afterward were knocked back and sent flying by Mao Jiajia, covering Tie Fu'er as he pulled his mother back into the formation.

At this moment, Zhao Mingchen reactivated his Second Soul Skill, Immovable Golden Body, and without hesitation stood at the front, using astonishing strength and Defensive Power to withstand the attacks of that High-Level Elite Wolf Bandit.

"Little Bear, watch out! Second Soul Skill—Lotus Armor!"

Xia Yiping was a careful and strategic Soul Grandmaster. She noticed what Zhao Mingchen needed in battle, so she skillfully used Lotus Armor to provide him with timely support.

First, she summoned her martial soul—a lotus. The lotus was dreamlike and illusory, its petals fluttering gently as it gave off a faint fragrance.

Then she lightly turned the lotus in her hand, and it suddenly burst with intense light, like a small moon.

Next, Xia Yiping gently pointed the lotus at Zhao Mingchen.

The Lotus Armor was like a finely fitted suit of close-fitting armor, covering Zhao Mingchen from head to toe.

It was made from lotus petals, each one as exquisitely detailed as a work of art.

The armor gave off a faint glow, as if carrying a trace of cool air, making one feel incomparably comfortable.

Zhao Mingchen nodded gratefully. He felt a powerful force surge from the armor and pour into his body.

His Defensive Power and vitality both rose significantly, making him even more valiant in battle.

In this way, Zhao Mingchen's defense was strengthened on top of his defense, making him like an unshakable mountain peak. No matter how the High-Level Elite Wolf Bandit attacked, he could block every blow and strike back.

Although this High-Level Elite Wolf Bandit was at the Soul Ancestor level like the previous one, it was clearly inferior.

"Chunyuan, add eyes!"

"First Soul Skill—Eye of Light and Shadow!"

Yang Chunyuan was a Soul Grandmaster with the unique Firefly Lamp martial soul.

This Soul Skill was called "Eye of Light and Shadow," and it could temporarily increase a soul master's vision and perception.

Yang Chunyuan gently waved the martial soul in her hand, and a soft light spilled toward Qin Huacheng.

Qin Huacheng immediately felt his perception improve. He could sense everything around him more clearly, including the elite wolf bandits' movements and attack intentions.

With the aid of Yang Chunyuan's Soul Skill, Qin Huacheng seemed to possess "clairvoyance." No matter how far the distance or how fast the speed, he could accurately catch the enemy's traces.

"First Soul Skill—Spear Like a Dragon!"

The tip of Qin Huacheng's martial soul, the Red Tassel Meteor Spear, trembled, like a heaven-shaking flying dragon, shooting straight toward a Soul Elder-level elite wolf bandit with unstoppable momentum.

Fast! Fast! Incredibly fast!

With a clang, the elite wolf bandit raised its heavy sword to block, then staggered back several steps in succession.

Under the enhancement of Yang Chunyuan's "Eye of Light and Shadow," he smoothly executed the thrusting spear technique he excelled at.

"The spear thrusts in a single line." The transitions between thrusts were so fast they dazzled the eye, impossible to guard against!

In an instant, the elite wolf bandit was forced by his attacks to block left and parry right, leaving deep footprints one after another in the brick paving beneath its feet.

"Second Soul Skill—Dark Shadow Seam Technique!"

This was a powerful and mysterious Soul Skill. It caused Mo Xuanbing's body to instantly transform into dozens of black shadows, as if they were ghosts surging out from the abyss of the underworld, filled with the aura of death.

Each shadow was as tough as a solid entity. They danced through the air like a horde of demons running wild, giving off an eerie and terrifying feeling.

These shadows seemed to have gained life. They shuttled through the air, forming streaks of black shadow like sharp daggers, stabbing straight toward the last Soul Elder-level elite wolf bandit.

That wolf bandit had clearly not expected Mo Xuanbing's attack to be so strange and fierce.

Thrown into a wretched state by the sudden attack, it tried to dodge the attacks of these shadow blades with nimble footwork and rapid movement.

However, Mo Xuanbing's shadow blades seemed to possess some kind of magical power. No matter how the wolf bandit moved, it could not escape their pursuit.

Luo Zhenjun, meanwhile, used the agility of his First Soul Skill, Black Back Stealth, to dart swiftly through the battlefield, searching for a chance to launch a lethal surprise attack on the enemy.

Although the young soul masters faced powerful enemies and were at a disadvantage, they did not give up.

They displayed stubborn perseverance and a spirit of unity, fighting fiercely against the enemy.

In the intense battle, the young soul masters kept unleashing their soul skills, attacking the enemy again and again.

Their coordination gradually became more practiced, slowly forming an invisible rapport and trust.

However, the four Elite Wolf Bandits put them under tremendous pressure.

Their attack power and defensive power were both extremely strong. Though Fei Xiang, Qin Huacheng, and Zhao Mingchen, with support from their assistants, had fought Battle Above One's Level at the start and gained the upper hand for a while, as time passed, the bandits came back to their senses and steadied their footing. The four young soul masters, including Mo Xuanbing, found it increasingly difficult to hold on.

The four strongest among them were tying down the four Elite Wolf Bandits, but at the same time, the Elite Wolf Bandits were also tying them down.

As a result, it became harder and harder for Tie Fu'er, Mao Jiajia, and Luo Zhenjun to deal with the siege from the dozens of ordinary Gray Wolf Bandits, even with the soul skill support of the three girls.

After all, these young soul masters had never fought a group battle growing up. Though their cooperation was fairly decent, their combat experience was still somewhat immature.

As for those auntie soul masters, they were already under great pressure themselves and could not free their hands to help.

Fortunately, Chen Xiaojun's group of nine quickly arrived, following the sounds of battle.

"Sword Saint Brother, Older Sister Wuxin, Dual Wheel Sky Dance! Tear open those Gray Wolf Bandits!"

"Second Soul Skill—Water Bloom Heavenly Wheel!"

Chen Jianzun moved at the sound. As his Soul Power surged, his Seven Kill Sword released streaks of intense light.

Those rays gathered at the sword tip into tiny water droplets, giving off a faint glow, then rapidly expanded, forming enormous Water Blades one after another.

The Water Blades rolled and spun through the air, expanding continuously until they finally formed a massive vortex of Water Blades.

That vortex seemed to possess tremendous power as it swept toward the Gray Wolf Bandits.

As the vortex drew near, the Gray Wolf Bandits began to scatter and flee, but it was already too late.

The Water Blade vortex instantly engulfed all the Gray Wolf Bandits, then burst apart with a violent explosion.

Huge sprays of water splashed outward, enveloping everything nearby.

When the water fell to the ground, it gave off a series of violent impacts, as if celebrating the arrival of victory.

At the same time, Zhu Wuxin also took action.

"Third Soul Skill—Whirlwind Sweep!"

With a clear shout, she swung her Nine-Toothed Rake through the air, and fierce whirlwinds quickly formed. They rolled and spun continuously, finally becoming a powerful current of air.

With Zhu Wuxin at the center, the air current spread in all directions, knocking back all nearby Gray Wolf Bandits.

Her attack was not only powerful but swift, leaving the Gray Wolf Bandits no way to withstand it.

Chen Jianzun and Zhu Wuxin's attacks seemed like two mighty forces converging in the air, forming an unparalleled energy.

Under Chen Jianzun and Zhu Wuxin's combined assault, the Gray Wolf Bandits were beaten into utter disarray, retreating again and again.
