With the announcement that the soul battle had begun, Su Xian's first match officially started.

Su Xian did not immediately use Martial Soul Possession. Instead, he quietly watched the changes on the other side.

Given the two of them, they would not attack him while he was in his normal state. Otherwise, they would feel that winning would be unfair.

Lin Rou's Martial Soul was the Snow Rabbit. After using Martial Soul Possession, a layer of white fur appeared over her body, while her ears became pointed and grew snow-white fluff.

As for Lin Xue, she grew taller while becoming chubby and round. She too was covered in white fur, and her palms were as thick as buckets. Her delicate features were squeezed together, making her look adorably fierce.

Seeing Lin Xue's appearance, Su Xian could not help thinking of Fat Buu from Dragon Ball. She really did look like him right now.

Seeing Su Xian remain motionless, Lin Rou's brows furrowed. "You're not using Martial Soul Possession? Are you planning to surrender right away?"

Surrender?

The corners of Su Xian's lips curled up slightly. A pair of pure white, supple wings unfurled from his sides, and white light shot into the sky as Su Xian rose into the air above the Soul Battle Stage.

"Lin Xue!"

Hearing her sister Lin Rou's call, Lin Xue immediately understood. The yellow Soul Ring beneath her feet lit up, and her already thick palms were once again encased in solid white giant hands.

Rumble!

Her hands crossed in front of her, perfectly covering the vital parts of her body. Heavy footsteps rang out with clangs as Lin Xue charged straight at Qian Renxue, intending to test her strength.

Su Xian could fly, and neither of them could reach him at all. Their target could only be Qian Renxue.

Because of Su Xian's warning, Lin Xue had also become cautious. She directly used the Second Soul Skill Twin Arms Guard to prevent any accidents.

"This guy said he'd fight two against one, yet he flew up into the sky himself."

Watching Lin Xue charge over, Qian Renxue was full of helplessness. She could not reveal her strength, so after thinking it over, she took out the Godly Zhuge Crossbow.

"Lin Xue, retreat!!"

The moment Lin Rou saw Qian Renxue take out the crossbow, her eyelids twitched. A dangerous feeling coiled around her heart, and she hurriedly shouted.

Looking at the Godly Zhuge Crossbow, Lin Xue's heart went cold. Her instincts told her that this thing could threaten her.

It could even kill her!!

Whoosh!

She stomped hard, like a car suddenly braking at a station. Lin Xue stopped her advance and rapidly retreated.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

All of a sudden, piercing sounds rang out in the sky. Streaks of white light shot down from above like meteors.

A closer look would reveal that within those white streaks were white feathers. Yet at this moment, they were sharper than any blade or sword.

Originally, Su Xian had intended to use the First Soul Skill Thousand Feathers to block Lin Xue's attack for Qian Renxue. However, now that Lin Xue had retreated, the two of them became his targets instead.

Although Qian Renxue had the mask's protection and would be fine even if they attacked her for years, that would be too much of a bully move.

Besides, he was somewhat worried. What if an accident happened and she got hurt?

Clang! Clang!

Without needing any words, Lin Xue spread her thick arms and stood in front of Lin Rou. The feathers collided with her palms in a shower of sparks, like exploding embers, dazzling the eye.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, Lin Rou vanished from behind Lin Xue and struck toward Qian Renxue like lightning. The second Soul Ring beneath her feet had already lit up.

"Not good!"

Unfortunately, before she could reach Qian Renxue, Lin Rou sensed danger approaching. She kicked off the ground with lightning speed and shot diagonally away in a manner that defied all reason.

Boom!

Su Xian's punch struck empty air. Surprise appeared in his eyes as the purple glow of the Soul Ring beneath his feet gradually faded.

"Your Soul Skill is quite good. You actually managed to dodge my Third Soul Skill." Su Xian could not help praising her.

His Third Soul Ring came from a two-thousand-year-old peregrine falcon and gave him an enormous boost in speed.

And when he used his Third Soul Skill Skywalk to dive downward, his speed was unmatched, reaching roughly four times his normal flying speed.

It could be said that the chance of dodging it was almost nonexistent. Lin Rou's ability to evade it with her Second Soul Skill truly surprised him.

"Phew..."

At the side, Lin Rou also let out a long breath. Cold sweat beaded on her forehead, and her expression became increasingly solemn. "Your speed truly is fast. If it were anyone else, they definitely wouldn't have been able to dodge it."

"Unfortunately..."

After a slight pause, a smug smile appeared on Lin Rou's face. "My Second Soul Skill Warning gives me a 50% chance of successfully evading an attack. You didn't expect that, did you?"

"No wonder..."

Upon hearing that, Su Xian immediately understood. Peregrine falcons could easily catch wild rabbits, so by all rights, there should have been no issue with his speed.

It was just that her Soul Skill was a little broken. A 50% chance to evade was inferior to Xiao Wu's teleportation, but it was still extremely practical!

Boom!

A fierce white light suddenly flared up. Su Xian's eyes narrowed as he immediately turned to look.

Behind Lin Rou, a perfectly round sphere of white energy rapidly condensed before Lin Xue's mouth. With a thunderous burst, it shot forth with the force of ten thousand bolts of lightning, hurtling toward Su Xian.

The snowy-white energy sphere looked utterly ordinary on the surface, yet it contained terrifying power within. Beneath its calm exterior lurked the danger of an explosion.

"Your timing was good..."

Su Xian's eyes narrowed slightly, and he could not help praising her inwardly. The three of them were standing in a line—if he dodged, the energy sphere would strike Qian Renxue.

With such strength and battle awareness, it was no wonder they had managed three consecutive victories in the expert-filled Heaven Dou City. They were indeed no simple opponents.

"Still, it's time for this to end."

Su Xian narrowed his eyes. Golden light flickered around his arm, and a massive golden claw appeared over his palm, fitting perfectly around his fingers.

Riiip!

Golden radiance shot in every direction as Su Xian lightly swiped downward with his right hand. A sound like paper tearing rang out, and a golden giant claw over a meter long burst forth through the air.

Wherever the golden claw passed, ripples spread through space itself, as though it might be torn apart at any moment. Its sharp, chilling gleam was too terrifying for anyone to look at directly.

"This is... a Soul Bone!"

On the viewing platform, Qin Ming's pupils abruptly contracted. His face filled with horror as he stared blankly at the golden claw on Su Xian's hand.

Of course, Qin Ming was not the only one who saw it. Many people in the VIP seats also recognized it as a Soul Bone, and they were equally dumbfounded.

Riiip!

The claw pierced through it as easily as slicing thin paper, and the snowy-white energy sphere exploded at once.

In an instant, shattered ice scattered in every direction. Frigid air filled the arena as icy spikes rose segment by segment, taking shape in the blink of an eye.

"Lin Xue, dodge!"

Seeing that Lin Xue was actually standing there in a daze, Lin Rou's expression changed drastically. She immediately shouted.

Since she was not standing in the same line, she could naturally see that this was the terrifying attack unleashed by a Soul Bone—something they could not possibly withstand.

"Ah... ah..."

Lin Xue abruptly came back to her senses. Watching the claw bear down on her, her eyes filled with terror, and her heart trembled with fear. She could even feel her martial soul shaking.

That was right—her martial soul was afraid!!
