Feng Xiaotian's New Self-Created Soul Skill

People unconsciously swallowed hard as they watched the cyan and blue streams of light continuously clash in the Arena.

Were these really battles between two students?

Could many long-famed veteran Soul Masters really do any better?

Creeak—

In the Shrek section, Tang San's pupils flashed purple as he watched Shui Wuchen and Feng Xiaotian clash on the Arena, and he could not help but clench his fists.

Tang San shouted in his heart: Soul Emperors, how could the two of them be Soul Emperors! Didn't they say Teacher Qin Ming was the second-youngest Soul Emperor in history?

Even though he possessed twin Martial Souls and had already begun cultivating the Clear Sky Hammer, at this moment, he still felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

Because the gap between them was simply too vast!

A Soul Ancestor and a Soul Emperor were separated by two great realms. Even if he used hidden weapons, he might not necessarily win, let alone the fact that weapons were strictly forbidden on the Arena.

Under such circumstances, how could he lead Shrek to win the Elite Tournament championship and fulfill his promise to his partners?

At that moment, Xiao Wu saw that Tang San's expression was off and held his hand.

Tang San looked at Xiao Wu, and Xiao Wu smiled and said, "Third Brother, don't put too much pressure on yourself. When the boat reaches the bridge-head, it will go straight through; there will always be a way."

"Xiao Wu..."

Hearing this, Tang San's heart relaxed, his pupils shifting slightly.

"And..."

Suddenly, Xiao Wu changed the subject, looked up at the Arena, and said, "In the current situation, no one can blame you for anything even if we lose."

The gap between a Soul Emperor and a Soul Ancestor was like a natural chasm, and crossing it was simply far too difficult. Xiao Wu had lived for so many years and had never seen anyone cross two great realms on their own to defeat a Soul Emperor.

Bang!

After another clash, the feathers on Feng Xiaotian's back scattered and his body retreated dozens of steps, stopping only at the edge of the Arena where he barely managed to steady himself.

He wiped the overflowing blood from the corner of his mouth and laughed heartily, "Exhilarating, exhilarating! Ever since our parting last time, this is the first time I've been beaten this miserably by a peer."

Long ago, Feng Xiaotian's strength had surpassed his peers, reaching the level of academy teachers. After all, apart from him, the youngest Soul King in Godwind Academy was already over thirty.

"You're not bad either. Among the peers I've met, you're only the second one to push me to this extent."

Shui Wuchen waved the ice-blue longblade in his hand, and the gaze he cast toward Feng Xiaotian was filled with admiration.

"The second?"

As soon as those words were spoken, Feng Xiaotian was slightly stunned before his brow arched. "It seems there is still an expert out there. What is her name?"

At that moment, Feng Xiaotian was also extremely curious as to who could earn such a high evaluation from Shui Wuchen.

Yet, contrary to Feng Xiaotian's expectations, facing his inquiry, Shui Wuchen merely shook his head. "I don't know. I don't know her name, but if she is still alive, her level is likely much higher than both of ours."

"What?"

Hearing this, Feng Xiaotian's pupils shrank abruptly. Among the younger generation, was there actually someone whose level was even higher than theirs? And not just by a little bit.

Hoo~~

After a good while, Feng Xiaotian finally took a deep breath, sighed to Shui Wuchen, and said, "Indeed, there is always someone better, and a heaven beyond the heavens. It seems the goal I need to surpass has gained yet another person."

Facing Shui Wuchen's words, Feng Xiaotian suffered no blow to his morale; instead, his fighting spirit became even more vigorous.

In Feng Xiaotian's view, there was nothing in this world more fortunate than having opponents capable of contending with one another. If there was, it was having two such opponents.

Had it not been for that battle with Shui Wuchen six years ago, which allowed Feng Xiaotian to witness the vastness of the world, whether he could have broken through to become a Soul King today would have been an unknown.

And an opponent like Shui Wuchen—there was actually another one?

Feng Xiaotian simply felt what virtue or ability he possessed to be blessed by the heavens, allowing him to have two such opponents in the same era.

"Perhaps, more than one?"

At that moment, hearing Feng Xiaotian's words, Shui Wuchen's expression remained unchanged as he continued, "The world is very large, and the Elite Tournament is merely a very small stage. Who knows if there are geniuses stronger than us hidden in the shadows? If you hold the mindset that there are only three of us in this world, you will suffer losses sooner or later."

As soon as those words were spoken, Feng Xiaotian's heart immediately shook.

That's right, he was still too arrogant.

To actually be arrogant enough to think that there were only two geniuses in this world capable of contending with him!

Thinking carefully about it, to say nothing of other places, on this very competition ground alone, there were two people comparable to him.

Shui Wuchen's younger sister Shui Bing'er might not be as strong as her older brother, but she was also a genius who reached level forty-six at the age of sixteen. With Shui Wuchen's guidance, by the time she reached his age, she might not be inferior to him.

And that Tang San possessed twin Martial Souls, innate full soul power, and was even equipped with an external soul bone; his future was likewise boundless.

For a moment, Feng Xiaotian felt a lingering fear. Had it not been for Shui Wuchen's reminder, he truly might have suffered losses because of this in the future.

Hoo~~

Feng Xiaotian let out another deep breath and bowed to Shui Wuchen. "Thank you for the reminder; I will be mindful of this in the future."

Seeing this, Shui Wuchen nodded slightly. The youth is worth teaching.

Meanwhile, in the spectator stands, everyone who heard these words wore blank expressions, casting strange gazes toward the two people on the Arena.

Some even turned into the metro-elder meme.

No, buddy, what are you guys talking about?

What do you mean the Elite Tournament is just a small stage, and what do you mean there are still many geniuses stronger than you hidden across the continent?

What kind of humblebrag is this anyway!

The Elite Tournament was already the largest-scale competition for the younger generation on the continent. It could be said that Douro Continent had never seen a larger competition in history, encompassing virtually all the geniuses of the younger generation.

Furthermore, the students who shone in the tournament almost all grew into the pillars of the future Soul Master world. Over ninety percent of the currently famed experts in the Soul Master world had participated in the Elite Tournament back in the day, with only a very few exceptions.

If even this counted as a small stage, then there were simply no large stages left on the continent.

And that there were many geniuses stronger than them hidden across the continent—did they truly know what they were saying?

Normally, for a Soul Master to break through to the Soul Ancestor realm before the age of twenty was already enough to be considered a peerless genius.

Spirit Hall's Xie Yue, Hu Liena, and Yan all broke through to the Soul King realm around the age of twenty and were called the Golden Generation by Spirit Hall; the cultivation speed of Soul Masters in the current era could thus be imagined.

Yet what about Shui Wuchen and Feng Xiaotian? Not only were both of them Soul Emperors, but they were both absurdly young; where on the continent were there so many young Soul Emperors?

However, Shui Wuchen and Feng Xiaotian were oblivious to the crowd's internal complaints. Feng Xiaotian's expression turned solemn as the wings on his back merged with his hands, taking on a tangible form.

"Shui Wuchen, ever since I lost to you that day, I discovered that my Gale Wolf Six Consecutive Slashes had taken the wrong path. Now I have created a new Gale Wolf Six Consecutive Slashes; please appraise it!"

With those words, Feng Xiaotian's body turned into a cyan streak, arriving before Shui Wuchen and spinning rapidly. In an instant, six cyan light traces appeared before Shui Wuchen.
