Instantaneous Movement!

She Zonglong was alarmed, and Xu Lin and the others in the audience widened their eyes as well.

The moment Gu Yue Na vanished, Chen An looked behind She Zonglong.

He guessed that Gu Yue Na would appear behind She Zonglong, and that a thrust from her spear would yield good results.

Sure enough, Gu Yue Na appeared behind She Zonglong and thrust out her spear.

Seven-colored light flickered across the surface of the Silver Dragon Spear, granting it exceptional piercing power.

She Zonglong felt a stabbing pain from behind him, and a powerful sense of danger surged through him.

Before he could turn around, the spear had already pierced through the diamond-like hide covering his body.

The spear only penetrated about the length of a pinky finger, with the hide alone accounting for more than half of that depth.

It was not that Gu Yue Na had held back. That was simply as deep as she could pierce.

She Zonglong cried out in pain, swinging his head as his trunk lashed backward.

Gu Yue Na had no way of using her spatial movement ability again so soon.

She could only face it head-on, relying on her nimble movements to evade the incoming trunk.

After dodging it, she swiftly closed in and thrust out her spear, leaving another wound.

As she attacked with her spear, she also used the elements to restrain She Zonglong.

She multitasked with perfect coordination, as though two people were working together in seamless cooperation.

She Zonglong was extremely passive, but his thick hide and tough flesh made him rather durable.

The two fought fiercely, and after much effort, She Zonglong finally managed to land a hit on Gu Yue Na.

His trunk struck Gu Yue Na, sending her flying.

Gu Yue Na rolled several times through the air before landing, her steps unsteady.

Her left shoulder had been struck. The clothes there were torn, exposing bloodied scales beneath.

After releasing her Martial Soul, dragon scales also covered the surface of her body.

Several of her silver dragon scales had been shattered by the blow, and the skin beneath them was bleeding.

This was the first time She Zonglong had injured Gu Yue Na since the battle began.

The force of an attack from a Soul Elder was still rather heavy for thirteen-level Gu Yue Na.

Gu Yue Na glanced sideways at the injury on her shoulder, and her gaze turned colder.

Anyone would feel anger after being injured.

Soon, her brows furrowed as her head began to feel dizzy. Na Er's personality surfaced at that moment.

I should end this quickly, Gu Yue Na thought, wanting to suppress Na Er's personality as soon as possible.

"Mammoth Cluster!" She Zonglong likewise wanted to end the battle quickly.

If this continued, who knew how many more holes would be stabbed into his body?

The third Soul Ring on his body lit up, and a Diamond Mammoth appeared on each side of him.

She Zonglong charged at Gu Yue Na like a mammoth, leading the two mammoths in a ferocious rush.

Gu Yue Na pushed off the ground and lightly sprang backward, pouring all the Soul Power in her body into the Silver Dragon Spear.

At the same time, she spat out a mouthful of blood onto the Silver Dragon Spear, activating its power.

"Roar!" A clear, domineering dragon's roar rang out from the Silver Dragon Spear.

A powerful pressure swept forth, carrying an overwhelming force that made people feel suffocated.

It was the kingly majesty unique to dragons.

The Silver Dragon Spear shone brightly, like an arrow drawn to its limit, waiting only for the bowstring to be released.

Gu Yue Na assumed a throwing stance and hurled the Silver Dragon Spear with all her might.

The spear flew straight ahead, its surface shining with blinding brilliance as it transformed into a silver dragon.

"Roar!" The phantom dragon spread its wings and roared, incomparably domineering. Its momentum was far beyond that of the mammoths.

The mammoths and silver dragon were about to collide. At that moment, everyone watching held their breath.

Boom! The beasts collided with tremendous force, and the silver dragon and mammoths fell into a brief stalemate.

Cracks began appearing across the mammoths' bodies, soon spreading over their entire forms.

Finally, the mammoths exploded. She Zonglong let out a miserable cry as his body was blasted backward.

The silver dragon also vanished, and the Silver Dragon Spear flew back toward Gu Yue Na.

Gu Yue Na caught the returning Silver Dragon Spear and stood with it in hand. Though she was merely a little girl, she radiated overwhelming dominance.

After flying more than ten meters, She Zonglong crashed to the ground. He groaned in pain, unable to rise.

Blood spilled from his mouth, and his aura was weak. He had already suffered grave injuries.

The entire venue fell silent. There had not been many people to begin with, and now that no one spoke, it seemed especially quiet.

Chen An quickly ran toward the arena. Gu Yue Na was not in good condition right now.

Her body swayed unsteadily, clearly from excessive exhaustion. Without someone supporting her, she might even collapse.

Headmaster Xu Lin and the others had all been hoping for this outcome.

Gu Yue Na defeating She Zonglong was certainly far more interesting than the reverse.

Yet when the result truly came to pass, they found it somewhat unbelievable.

A little girl barely over eight years old, with Soul Power at only level thirteen.

Had now defeated a top-tier level thirty-three Defense Type Battle Soul Grandmaster?

If they had not seen it with their own eyes, probably very few people would have believed it.

"Good, good, good!" Xu Lin said "good" three times in a row, his voice loud and resounding.

The smile on his face was dazzling, and the way he looked at Gu Yue Na was as though he were gazing at an unparalleled treasure.

"I announce that Gu Yue Na has won this match!" Xu Lin personally announced the result.

The academy's senior staff beside him all nodded in satisfaction.

They already regarded Gu Yue Na as the academy's treasure. She absolutely had to be nurtured properly.

When She Zonglong, still suffering through his injuries, heard the result, he spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.

It was too humiliating. A dignified Soul Grandmaster had actually lost to a level thirteen Soul Master.

If word got out, he would surely be nailed to the pillar of shame.

Gu Yue Na did not feel much joy over her victory. She had merely defeated a Soul Grandmaster, after all.

"Are you all right?" Chen An supported Gu Yue Na as they walked out of the arena.

"I need to go back and rest properly. My head is starting to hurt again," Gu Yue Na said softly.

She did not directly mention Na Er's personality, worried that someone might overhear.

The two of them were still rather careful with their words when outside and would not say everything openly.

"Can you walk on your own? My match is about to begin, so I might not be able to take you back," Chen An said.

"Barely. Just focus on your match. You'd better not lose," Gu Yue Na said.

"I'll do my best. I still want to spar with you again in the finals."

Chen An nodded. After seeing Gu Yue Na's true strength, he wanted to spar with her even more.

"I'll wait for you." Gu Yue Na smiled softly at Chen An, then signaled that he no longer needed to support her.

"I'll take you back to rest." An elderly woman suddenly appeared and offered to escort her.

Gu Yue Na instinctively felt somewhat resistant toward strangers and was unwilling.

Chen An did not know the elderly woman, but he could guess that she was most likely a teacher from the academy.

Judging by her unfathomable aura, her status was probably not low either.

"Then we'll trouble you, Senior," Chen An agreed on Gu Yue Na's behalf.

In her current condition, having someone support her was certainly better than returning alone.

Gu Yue Na did not object either, allowing the elderly woman to lead her away.

Chen An looked toward the arena. People were clearing the grounds, and they worked quickly.

Ten minutes later, the second semifinal match began.
