Xiao Wu kicked at Ye Lingling, but Osler appeared again at that moment. His fist met Xiao Wu's foot and forced her back. Right after that, Dugu Yan also rushed back to defend.

A smile curled at Xiao Wu's lips. With another Teleport, she arrived in midair. Attacking Ye Lingling had only been meant to draw all of the Imperial Fighting Team over. Their true target was Yu Feng, the Imperial Fighting Team's aerial unit.

"First Soul Skill—Waist Bow." Yu Feng, bound by Tang San's Spider Web Bind, had no ability to resist. Xiao Wu kicked him straight off the arena.

The Imperial Fighting Team's faces turned green. Xiao Wu had pretended to attack Ye Lingling and tricked them into falling back, only to send Yu Feng flying off the stage instead.

Dugu Yan was furious as well. Soul rings emerged around her as she said softly, "Crimson Phosphorus Poison, Azure Phosphorus Poison."

Dugu Yan used both Soul Skills as support. Crimson Phosphorus Poison was a stimulant toxin that could increase speed and strength by twenty percent. Azure Phosphorus Poison was a paralyzing toxin that could dull pain and increase defense by thirty percent.

But poisons were harmful to the human body by nature. Under normal circumstances, Dugu Yan did not want to use them on her own teammates. No matter how well the dosage was controlled, prolonged use would still damage the body.

Still, Dugu Yan's slight boost was not enough. The Hell White Tiger was still active, and Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing's Martial Soul Fusion Skill was displaying overwhelming power. With Ning Rongrong's Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda supporting them, no one below the Soul King level could possibly withstand the Hell White Tiger.

Yu Tianheng tried to intercept it, only to be slapped flying by the Hell White Tiger. Another slap sent Shi Mo flying as well, and the Black Tortoise Barrier trapping the Shi Mo and Shi Mo brothers along with Zhao Zilong shattered instantly.

"Shi Mo..." Shi Mo cried out in alarm.

With the barrier gone, Zhao Zilong rushed forward and struck with his palm. "Gentle Fist..."

"Mystic Turtle Shield."

With a smack, the Gentle Fist collided with the Mystic Turtle Shield, followed by an explosion of Soul Power. Shi Mo's Mystic Turtle Shield was instantly shattered by the Gentle Fist, forcing Shi Mo to strengthen his Soul Power to defend himself.

"Spider Web Bind." A web shot from Zhao Zilong's hand. Shi Mo had planned to rely on his turtle shell to withstand Zhao Zilong's Gentle Fist, but the web wrapped around him directly.

It was too difficult to injure a defense-type Soul Master, and using the Gentle Fist also put quite a burden on the body.

"Off you go." Zhao Zilong used Spider Web Bind to restrain him, then tugged on the Blue Silver Grass and hurled him toward the edge of the arena.

"Shi Mo." Dugu Yan could only watch anxiously. They were already struggling just to join forces against the Hell White Tiger. This Martial Soul Fusion Skill was simply too powerful.

The rout had begun. With the Hell White Tiger's overwhelming strength and Yu Feng and Shi Mo eliminated, the battle became increasingly unfavorable for the Imperial Fighting Team.

"Damn it! Third Soul Skill—Wrath of Thunder! First Soul Skill—Thunder Dragon Claw..." Yu Tianheng clashed head-on with the Hell White Tiger again. Dragon claw met tiger claw, and white light burst in every direction. Even though Wrath of Thunder greatly enhanced Yu Tianheng's attributes, he was still no match for this Martial Soul Fusion Skill. Even with the boosts from Crimson Phosphorus Poison and Azure Phosphorus Poison, he was slapped flying once more.

Faced with the Hell White Tiger's power, the Imperial Fighting Team despaired. Even Yu Tianheng, their strongest member, could not block a single strike from the Hell White Tiger after using his strongest single-target attack.

However, the Hell White Tiger dissipated at that moment. With Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing's current Soul Power, they could not sustain this Martial Soul Fusion Skill for long.

"The Martial Soul Fusion Skill has been released?" Seeing this, the Imperial Fighting Team breathed a sigh of relief. If the Martial Soul Fusion Skill had continued, Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing alone could have swept through all of them.

After the Martial Soul Fusion Skill ended, Zhu Zhuqing's Soul Power was nearly depleted, while Dai Mubai was only slightly better off. The two immediately took out Recovery Sausages and ate them.

"This... Could those sausages be the Soul Skill of that Food Type Soul Master? Referee, they're breaking the rules." When Yu Tianheng saw the sausages in their hands, he nearly exploded with anger. So this was how they were playing?

The host looked rather awkward. The rules did not state that food could not be brought in.

A confident smile appeared on Tang San's lips. "Before the match began, we specifically asked the spirit fighting arena whether alcohol, food, and similar items could be used during a Soul Fight to restore stamina. The organizers answered that they could, because some special Martial Souls require food as support in order for their Soul Skills to have greater power."

Yu Tianheng's eye twitched at that answer. This was clearly exploiting a loophole in the rules! But they had no choice now but to keep fighting.

"Hmph. Now that your teammates' Martial Soul Fusion Skill is gone, I'd like to see who among you can stop me. Lingling, heal me. Yanzi, Shi Mo, protect Lingling." As he spoke, the lightning around Yu Tianheng grew more violent. He roared, "Third Soul Skill—Wrath of Thunder."

"First Soul Skill—Thunder Dragon Claw."

Xiao Wu immediately rushed forward and unleashed a three-hit combo. "Teleport, Charm, Waist Bow..."

Sure enough, Yu Tianheng was briefly dazed the instant Charm struck him. Xiao Wu seized the opportunity and kicked him in the chest. Yu Tianheng grunted in pain, then immediately grabbed Xiao Wu's ankle. Tang San's face changed drastically. "Xiao Wu, run..."

But it was already too late. After grabbing Xiao Wu, Yu Tianheng's dragon claw filled with violent lightning. He roared, "Thunder Strike."

Boom, boom, boom... The solid punch landed directly on Xiao Wu's already flat chest. Her body flew away like a kite with its string cut.

"Xiao Wu..." Tang San's heart shattered at the sight. He controlled the Blue Silver Grass to catch Xiao Wu. When he caught her, blue arcs of electricity still flickered across her body, and a clear fist mark was visible on her chest. Blood coughed from Xiao Wu's mouth, and she was having difficulty even breathing. Seeing Xiao Wu gravely injured, the killing intent in Tang San's eyes surged.

"Gentle Fist." Zhao Zilong seized the chance and struck with his palm.

"Thunder Dragon Claw..." Yu Tianheng answered with a punch as well. Fist and palm collided, and Yu Tianheng's dragon claw form was shattered. However, Yu Tianheng had learned from experience this time, and powerful lightning closed in on Zhao Zilong from all directions.

Zhao Zilong immediately dodged backward. Meng Yiran spotted an opening and charged forward, saying softly, "Third Soul Skill—Blood Poison Blade."

"Don't think you can launch a sneak attack. Third Soul Skill—Ghost Shadow Impact..." Osler appeared behind Yu Tianheng at that moment and blocked Meng Yiran's sneak attack for him.

"This lightning really is powerful." Zhao Zilong looked at the lingering sparks on his left hand. Even with the Gentle Fist, it seemed he could not gain much of an advantage in a direct clash against Thunder Dragon Claw.

Meanwhile, Yu Tianheng's injuries were gradually recovering. He said proudly, "Yanzi's Crimson Poison increases my strength and speed, while the Azure Poison increases my defense and reduces pain. Combined with Lingling's continuous healing, I don't fear getting injured. Wrath of Thunder can also grant me a fifty percent boost. Unless my Soul Power is exhausted, I will not fall. Now, none of you can stop me."

"You should never, ever have hurt Xiao Wu." Tang San laid Xiao Wu down on the arena, his eyes bloodshot and crimson.

Yu Tianheng gave a disdainful laugh. "This is a Soul Fighting Arena. If you want revenge, then defeat me."

"I will never forgive anyone who hurts Xiao Wu." Tang San was consumed by fury. He began taking all kinds of hidden weapons from his Soul Tool. His hands transformed into Mysterious Jade Hands as he rapidly hurled the hidden weapons.
