Just as expected!

Under Ling Feng's agile movements, Song Si couldn't even touch his opponent, and could only passively take the beating, his face already bruised.

"Oh shit!"

Enraged, Song Si withdrew his Martial Soul and, taking advantage of Ling Feng's leap to his side once more, grabbed Ling Feng's fist with both hands. Ignoring whether Ling Feng was stronger than him, Song Si pressed down on him and slammed his head into Ling Feng's head.

Thump!

A dull thud sounded, and due to the force of the impact, Song Si felt dizzy and fell backward.

Ling Feng was also swayed by Song Si's sudden attack and eventually fell down.

Although Ling Feng's Soul Power was higher than Song Si's, he had also used his Soul Power while dodging Song Si's Frying Pan, so his consumption was actually higher than Song Si's.

Therefore, the two appeared to be evenly matched.

"What a madman!"

Liu Long cursed Song Si, and also looked down on the unconscious Ling Feng, who had actually lost to a Commoner Soul Master with lower Soul Power than him.

"It's a draw!" Xiao Wu was taken aback. "However, Song Si is also quite good. It's just that his Martial Soul isn't as effective as his own body."

This is mainly because Song Si's Martial Soul is Frying Pan, which is not an offensive Martial Soul. The bottom of the pan has a large surface area, so it's okay to swing it sideways, but if it's vertical, the air resistance will be greater.

Ling Feng's movements were agile, making him difficult to hit.

In this situation, it was naturally not as effective as his own arms. However, there was a problem: the physical fitness of Tool Martial Soul Master was ultimately weaker than that of Beast Martial Soul. As a result, even though Song Si seized the opportunity, he was the first to faint.

Actually, it wasn't a draw; Song Si lost.

Therefore, Zhou Qing, as the referee, also said, "Because Song Si fainted first, the first round is considered a win for your Noble Student."

"Damn it! Zhou Qing, which side are you on?" Xiao Wu shouted.

"As a referee, one must be impartial," Zhou Qing said. "Moreover, when Song Si wakes up, telling him that Ling Feng also fainted after he did will have a better effect."

Tang San understood Zhou Qing's considerations. If Song Si knew afterward that he had fought Ling Feng to a draw, he might still misjudge his own strength.

Therefore, it's better to lose this match.

Xiao Chenyu was quite surprised. He had thought Zhou Qing would favor Song Si, but he didn't expect him to be so fair. This confirmed his suspicion that Zhou Qing came from a powerful force.

The second match.

Wang Sheng VS Liu Long!

"I didn't expect you to still have the courage to fight me." Liu Long looked at Wang Sheng and chuckled. "Haven't you learned your lesson from the bruises I beat you up last time?"

It turns out that the injury on Wang Sheng's face yesterday was caused by Liu Long.

"You've bullied us work-study students. While the three bosses aren't around, I'll stand up for them." Wang Sheng said in a deep voice, circulating his Soul Power. A "Wang" character appeared on his forehead, and his claws became sharper.

Unlike Tool Martial Soul, Beast Martial Soul appear in the form of possession. Generally, the higher the level of Soul Master, the more parts of their body Beast Transformation. Until the Soul Saint and completes the Martial Soul Avatar, the Soul Master can completely transform into a state similar to Soul Beast.

Wang Sheng was only a level nine Soul Scholar, not even Soul Master. After his Martial Soul Possession, his body surface displayed an image related to a tiger, with only the iconic "King" character, a few tiger whiskers on his face, and his nails becoming sharper.

The parts that Beast Transformation are extremely limited.

Liu Long dared not be careless and also released his Martial Soul, which was an iron rod, which he held in his hand, his eyes fixed on Wang Sheng.

"Battle begins!"

At Zhou Qing's command, Wang Sheng Bowing Body and knelt, like a crouching tiger cub, his round pupils in his black eyes seeming to radiate Sisi glint of light.

If you look closely, you'll notice that Wang Sheng's gaze is entirely focused on Liu Long's lower body.

He had clearly taken Tang San's words to heart.

Liu Long, wielding an iron rod, swept it across Wang Sheng's waist.

Although Wang Sheng Beast Martial Soul, his physical abilities had improved significantly after the Martial Soul Possession. However, he still dared not directly confront the opponent's iron rod. He crouched down to dodge the attack, and then seized the opportunity to pounce on Liu Long.

Upon seeing this, a hint of disdain appeared in Liu Long's eyes.

In the past, Wang Sheng only had these two moves: dodge and pounce. He had almost developed these into instinctive reactions. He would grab the swinging iron bar with one hand, preparing to block Wang Sheng's claws from behind, and then kick it away with his foot.

This time, however, Wang Sheng Sheng's target was not Liu Long's chest or neck, but his legs.

By the time Liu Long realized this, it was too late.

Wang Sheng Bowing Body, grabbed Liu Long's ankle, and then pulled and lifted him, causing Liu Long to fall backward and hit the ground with the back of his head.

Thump!

A dull sound rang out.

Liu Long blurred for a moment, and Wang Sheng seized the opportunity to sit on Liu Long's waist, clenched his fists, and punched Liu Long hard in the eye sockets, making him put on a pair of "sunglasses" instantly, and then let out a low roar like a young tiger, "Roar~ I won!"

He was very happy!

In the past, when Liu Long caused trouble for him, every time Liu Long's iron rod could hit him, while his own attacks could be blocked by Liu Long's iron rod and could not hit him at all.

He knew that this was because Liu Long, born into a noble family, would practice his family's traditional staff techniques after his Martial Soul Awakening.

Even if a commoner like him awakens Beast Martial Soul like a tiger, without the corresponding combat skills, even if his physical attributes are barely comparable to Liu Long, who has been well-fed and cared for since childhood, he still cannot effectively attack him after the Martial Soul Possession.

But now, under Tang San's guidance, he has developed his own unique fighting style.

Why did I always target the neck in the past?

Although that is a weakness, the enemy must also know that you can do the opposite: first attack the opponent's legs and feet to make them lose their balance, and then seize the moment when the opening is exposed to attack their vital parts.

This combat method, though a bit underhanded, is not a shameful tactic. For Commoner Soul Master from small villages, in the early stages of their Soul Power Level, before reaching the Soul Elder level, such techniques might be able to save their lives in critical moments.

"Wang Sheng wins."

Zhou Qing announced the results of the competition, then led Tang San forward to examine the back of Liu Long's head.

After all, they are still children. If their heads hit the ground and they suffer irreparable injuries as a result, it would be a real problem.

"It's alright." Zhou Qing breathed a sigh of relief, pressed the grassy ground, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. "Luckily, the ground is soft and covered with grass. If this kid had bumped his head on the school playground, he would probably have been in bed for two days."

Liu Long stood up, grinning, rubbing his still-aching back of the head, and then covered his eyes.

Compared to the injury on the back of his head, the two dark circles under his eyes caused by Wang Sheng's punch were clearly much more painful.

"Wang Sheng, you're really something!"

Liu Long was somewhat unconvinced, but he had lost, and he didn't deny it. He just shouted, "I'll definitely win next time!"

"I'll be waiting." Wang Sheng grinned, revealing two sharp canine teeth, a change that came with the Martial Soul Possession.

"Snort!"

Liu Long turned around and walked away.

But for some reason, Zhou Qing always felt that Wang Sheng and Liu Long had developed a sense of mutual respect.

Perhaps this is why schools allow students to "spar" with each other. However, in most cases, without a sound system for such exchanges and proper educational guidance, this practice can easily degenerate into bullying of the weak by the strong.

I'll update 10,000 chapters after the book goes live. I'll definitely finish the remaining three chapters before 10 PM.
