Shrek Battle Team vs. Imperial Fighting Team

That evening, at the main Soul Fighting Arena.

Two Silver Spirit Master teams, each with members at level 30: Shrek Battle Team vs. Imperial Fighting Team.

The Main Soul Fighting Arena had far more spectators than the subsidiary arenas. Although the members of Shrek Battle Team were all wearing masks, Yu Tianheng recognized Zhao Zilong at a glance. His face full of fighting spirit, he said, "Tonight's team battle won't be like the one-on-one duels this afternoon. Your Shrek Battle Team's win streak ends tonight, at the hands of our Imperial Fighting Team."

"Then let's see you try!" Dai Mubai spoke first. "Before we met you, plenty of teams said the same thing, but we still kept winning all the way to this point. Tonight won't be any different."

Host Doudou announced, "Tonight's team battle is Shrek Battle Team versus Imperial Fighting Team. Both are level-30 Silver Spirit Master teams. Please activate your Martial Souls. The Soul Fighting match will begin in thirty seconds."

The Imperial Fighting Team all had two yellow Soul Rings and one purple Soul Ring. On Shrek's side, five people had two yellow Soul Rings and one purple Soul Ring; only Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing had two yellow Soul Rings.

Seeing the other team's Soul Rings, Yu Tianheng was a little stunned. He knew that Shrek Battle Team had six Soul Elders, but only five had come out to compete.

"The Soul Fighting match begins!"

"Haah..." Yu Tianheng roared. Both his hands transformed into dragon claws. After fighting Zhao Zilong, he didn't dare underestimate Shrek Battle Team and didn't rush into an attack.

Ning Rongrong first bestowed buffs on everyone, using her first two Soul Skills to increase their speed and strength. But Shrek's side was cautious, too, and still didn't make the first move.

The host had called the start, yet both teams remained frozen in place. The spectators were getting impatient.

Their defense is too tight. Dai Mubai looked at Ye Lingling, who was being protected at the back of the Imperial Fighting Team, and furrowed his brow. His Spirit Pressure couldn't threaten the support member in the rear at all. Instead, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon's Spirit Pressure made Dai Mubai feel a trace of fear toward a Martial Soul for the first time.

But the stalemate was broken soon enough. Neither Dai Mubai nor Yu Tianheng was especially patient. After more than ten seconds, both of them attacked at the same time, taking the initiative and breaking the deadlock.

Boom! Dai Mubai and Yu Tianheng's fists collided. Lightning clashed with Holy Light, and Dai Mubai was knocked back seven steps, while Yu Tianheng was pushed back only three. Dai Mubai was shocked. He had already received a boost to his speed and strength from Ning Rongrong's Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda, yet he was still slightly weaker than Yu Tianheng. It infuriated him.

"You've got some skill!" Yu Tianheng gave a cold snort, the lightning around his hands growing even stronger. Though he was praising Dai Mubai, their exchange had restored the confidence Yu Tianheng had lost after being beaten that afternoon.

"Attack!" At Yu Tianheng's order, the two Agility Attack System Soul Masters, Osler and Yu Feng, sprang into action. One flew into the air, while Osler headed toward Meng Yiran.

"First Soul Skill: Wing Blade!" Yu Feng, in the air, went straight for Zhao Zilong.

Several strands of Blue Silver Grass appeared in front of him, but Yu Feng's wind blades cut them down.

"Your opponent is me." Flying overhead, Yu Feng looked down at Zhao Zilong.

He remembered the instructions from his teacher, Qin Ming.

In the lounge, Qin Ming had instructed them: "Yu Feng, hold off the Soul Master called Blue Silver Emperor. Remember, don't let him get close..."

"I watched his fight with Tianheng earlier. It wasn't that Tianheng was weaker than Blue Silver Emperor; his Martial Soul was countered by that special Palm Technique. That Palm Technique can only be used at close range. As long as you don't give him a chance to get close, his Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul won't be anything to fear. You have the advantage in the air, and you're an Agility Attack System Soul Master. Just hold him off, and we can defeat the members of Shrek Battle Team one by one."

"Bamboo Leaf Sword Rain..."

"Wing Blade..."

The others' battles continued as well. As the captains of their respective teams and the ones with the highest Soul Power, Dai Mubai and Yu Tianheng were both powerful attack-type Soul Masters. Their clash was a contest of strength, and the longer they fought, the more alarmed Dai Mubai became. The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul had clearly increased his strength and speed by thirty percent, yet he was still slightly weaker than Yu Tianheng.

Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing were both relying on their speed to get around and attack the back line. But Shi Mo and Shi Mo, two defense-type Soul Masters, were guarding Ye Lingling so tightly that not even a gap remained. Even Dugu Yan, a Control Type Soul Master, was protecting Ye Lingling. With a Healing Type Soul Master who had a Nine Heart Begonia, as long as she had enough Soul Power, even the most severe injuries could be healed in a short time.

After several exchanges, Dai Mubai was being pushed back by Yu Tianheng. Though the boost from the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul increased his speed and strength, allowing him to match Yu Tianheng for a short time, Yu Tianheng changed his tactics. He attacked relentlessly each time, even deliberately trading wounds.

When both of them were injured, the advantage of having a Healing Type Soul Master with a Nine Heart Begonia immediately came into play. Dai Mubai gradually began to fall behind.

"Come back." Tang San used Blue Silver Grass to pull everyone back, while Yu Tianheng stayed calm and didn't pursue them.

Both teams maintained their formations, and the members of Shrek all ate sausages. Zhao Zilong said, "That Yu Feng on the other side is quite the nuisance! Every time I try to get to the back line, he sneaks up on me from behind."

"Xiao San, just as you predicted, since Zilong defeated Yu Tianheng this morning, everyone on the Imperial Fighting Team is keeping a close eye on him." Dai Mubai looked at Tang San with a serious expression. "But that works out. Let's follow the plan. Zhuqing and I will use Hell White Tiger to break through and scatter their formation. Zilong, you and Xiao Wu draw their fire. We have to take out the Nine Heart Begonia Soul Master first. If we don't get her off the stage, this could go on forever."

"Okay."

Then Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing activated their Martial Soul Fusion Skill. The move was so powerful that one strike badly injured Yu Tianheng and sent the Shi Mo brothers flying.

Seeing the other team's formation thrown into disarray, Zhao Zilong and Xiao Wu sprang into action. Zhao Zilong charged toward Ye Lingling, but Shi Mo and Shi Mo, the two brothers who had just been knocked away, blocked his path again.

"Protect Lingling!" At that order, not only did the Shi Mo brothers move to defend her; the rest of the Imperial Fighting Team also began falling back to protect Ye Lingling.

"Damn it!" Dugu Yan immediately unleashed Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison. But against the snake venom, Tang San promptly used Realgar Wine, combining it with fire. The venom was instantly neutralized.

"Don't even think about getting past us." Shi Mo and Shi Mo saw that Dugu Yan's poison had been neutralized. Now they couldn't afford to hold back. They knew Zhao Zilong was powerful, and their teacher Qin Ming had also told them to avoid close combat with him as much as possible.

They threw the Black Tortoise Shell in their hands. It immediately broke apart into scales.

"Black Tortoise Barrier!" A barrier formed from Soul Power and the tortoise shell instantly trapped Zhao Zilong and Xiao Wu inside. Though the move had indeed trapped Zhao Zilong, it couldn't hold Xiao Wu. Just as the two brothers thought victory was in their grasp and began shrinking the Black Tortoise Barrier, Xiao Wu escaped with Teleport, emerging beside Ye Lingling.

"Damn it!" Seeing this, the Shi Mo brothers panicked.

Yu Feng had just started to rush over when Tang San seized the opening in his defense and caught him with Spider Web Bind.
