Battle in Progress
Hearing the cheers from the audience, the host smiled with satisfaction. His job was to motivate the audience and make the atmosphere of the competition even more exciting.
He chuckled and continued, "In this match against the Blazing Fire Academy, our Heavenly Star Squad only fielded their captain Lu Yuan. Does this mean that after the two-against-seven match against the Elephant Armor Academy, our Lu Yuan is going to have another one-against-seven match?"
"Lu Yuan, are you sure you're going to take on seven opponents alone in this match?"
The host asked Lu Yuan.
"Confirmed!" Lu Yuan nodded calmly and said.
"Alright, Lu Yuan has already stated that he will be playing against all seven members of the Blazing Fire Academy Team in this match. So, will Lu Yuan successfully defeat all seven of them, or will Blazing Fire Academy prove to be more skilled and win? Let's wait and see."
"I hereby announce that the first match of the 21st round of the qualifiers, between Heavenly Star Academy Team and Blazing Fire Academy Team, is now beginning!"
Having received a response from Lu Yuan, the host immediately announced the start of the competition.
The audience erupted in cheers and shouts once again.
"Wow, your popularity is really explosive!" Huo Wushuang said with a light laugh as he looked at Lu Yuan across from him.
The cheers from the audience were deafening, but upon closer listening, they were mostly in support of the Heavenly Star Squad and Lu Yuan, with very few voices supporting the Blazing Fire Academy Team.
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan smiled faintly and did not reply.
His gaze swept across the room, taking in the strength of everyone from the Blazing Fire Academy.
With three Soul Ancestor and four Soul Elders, the same lineup as the Elephant Armor Academy Team, the Blazing Fire Academy Team still managed to defeat the Elephant Armor Academy Team, demonstrating that their strength was significantly greater than that group of simpletons.
Among the three Soul Ancestor of the Blazing Fire Academy, Huo Wushuang is level 43, another Soul Ancestor seems to have just broken through to level 41, and the highest level is Huo Wu, level 44.
However, Huo Wu was staring at him expressionlessly, and Lu Yuan found her gaze rather strange.
"By the way, what's wrong with your sister? I don't owe her any money, do I? Why is she staring at me like that?" Lu Yuan asked Huo Wushuang softly.
"It has nothing to do with you. It's my sister who's still sulking ever since she lost to Shui Bing'er last time," Huo Wushuang said, shaking his head slightly.
"Losing one game doesn't have to be like this, Brother Wushuang. Your sister has such a strong competitive spirit," Lu Yuan said.
Upon hearing this, Huo Wushuang smiled wryly. That was just his sister's personality, and there was nothing he, as her older brother, could do about it.
"Are you finished talking? If you're done, we can begin." Huo Wu's calm voice rang out as she listened to Lu Yuan and Huo Wushuang's back-and-forth conversation.
"Then let's begin." Hearing Huo Wu's words, Lu Yuan smiled slightly and said.
"Alright!" Huo Wushuang responded, stepped forward, slightly clasped his hands in a fist salute, and said softly, "Huo Wushuang, Martial Soul: Unicorn Flame."
"Hey!" Before Huo Wushuang could finish speaking, Lu Yuan interrupted him directly, "No need to report your level, let's start."
"Alright then, let's begin!" After hearing Lu Yuan's words, Huo Wushuang nodded, then stomped his foot, his body glowing red as he directly Martial Soul Possession.
At the same time, Huo Wu and the other six also completed the Martial Soul Possession.
In the state of Martial Soul Possession, a ball of flame suddenly appeared on Huo Wushuang's body, burning fiercely. As the flame gradually dissipated, Huo Wushuang's entire body was covered with a layer of dark red scales, and a short horn about three inches long extended from his head.
"The Unicorn Fire Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul?" Looking at Huo Wushuang's changes, Lu Yuan's voice was indifferent. The Unicorn Fire Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul had good attack power and explosive fire power, making it a top-tier Martial Soul. However, this Martial Soul did not have the ability to Dragonification, making it somewhat inferior to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon.
Moreover, the consequences of encountering Dragon Clan Martial Soul with him would be quite wonderful, especially since Huo Wushuang's attribute is fire, which makes it even more wonderful.
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan couldn't help but smile to himself.
Turning his gaze to Huo Wu, he saw an orange-red figure on Huo Wu's body. This figure was very illusory, and it was Huo Wu's Martial Soul, Huo Fire Shadow. After the Fire Shadow Martial Soul Possession, Huo Wu's body was filled with a fiery aura, and the four Soul Rings of yellow and purple under her body were slightly shining.
At this moment, as she looked at Lu Yuan's figure, her eyes were filled with burning fighting spirit.
"Heh, come on!" Lu Yuan smiled slightly as he looked at the lineup of the Blazing Fire Academy.
"Then let's go!" Huo Wushuang roared, and a loud dragon's roar resounded. Thick Lie Yan rose from Huo Wushuang's body, and a pair of claws covered with scales reached directly towards Lu Yuan.
Meanwhile, the other members of the Blazing Fire Academy also launched their attacks one by one.
The two team members, whose Martial Soul were Fire Crane, spread their dazzling wings and headed straight for Lu Yuan.
Meanwhile, the two Soul Master whose Martial Soul was Fire Star also activated their support abilities.
That's right, their role is to provide support.
Fire Star entered the bodies of the other five Soul Masters from the Blazing Fire Academy, instantly boosting their auras and significantly enhancing their speed and attack power.
At this moment, Huo Wu, who had remained motionless, and another Martial Soul with the Soul Ancestor of Fire Leopard also launched their attack.
The Fire Leopard Soul Master unleashed seven dark blue fireballs, launching them towards Lu Yuan.
Huo Wu's body was also emitting a dense red light, and the power of flames rose up, sending fireballs flying directly towards Lu Yuan.
It can be said that the Blazing Fire Academy launched an all-out attack right from the start of the match, without holding back at all.
Because they all knew how powerful the man on the other side was, and under such circumstances, to dare to hold back would be tantamount to courting death.
"Heh!" Lu Yuan chuckled softly, his expression remaining calm and unwavering as he watched the attacks coming at him from all directions.
With a gentle extension of his right hand, Lu Yuan's fair palm struck Huo Wushuang directly. To Huo Wushuang's astonishment, Lu Yuan's hand clashed with his sharp claws.
There were no violent energy fluctuations as expected, no earth-shattering noises, and none of the situations that many people had imagined, such as Lu Yuan's right hand being injured.
With just one palm strike, Lu Yuan easily deflected Huo Wushuang's dragon claw and then lightly landed on Huo Wushuang's chest.
With a palm strike from Lu Yuan, the raging flames on Huo Wushuang's body were completely extinguished. With a slight movement of his hand, Huo Wushuang's figure was sent flying backward at an extremely fast speed, landing next to Huo Wu.
I'll post two chapters this afternoon, that'll be five chapters for today. I'll post six more tomorrow.
