Martial Soul Mysterious Tortoise, Counterattack Armor Critical Strike

Just then, someone from the Wild Wolf Gang outside shouted urgently.

The Soul Masters with ranged attacks immediately began attacking downhill.

"Are they here again? Looks like they don't want to wait any longer." The First Boss's expression darkened.

"First Boss, this is bad!"

But a figure rushed inside, shouting in panic.

"What happened?..."

"Get lost!"

As soon as the words fell, a cold snort came from outside. Flames surged from the ground, and curved blades spun continuously, mercilessly reaping the lives of the Wild Wolf Gang members outside.

Screams rang out one after another.

Then everyone saw an Emerald Light flickering not far ahead.

The three bosses immediately rushed out.

They all unleashed their Martial Souls.

"What's going on? The terrain favors us, so how were we breached so easily?" The Third Boss looked at the man who had just rushed in.

The man immediately said, "All our attacks were blocked by that Tortoise Shell on his body."

"Then attack together!" the Second Boss roared.

"We did attack together! It was useless! His defense is too strong!" the man retorted.

We're all about to die, and you're still acting tough?

The Second Boss's face immediately turned as ugly as liver.

"Enough, stop arguing. You're already surrounded. Put down your weapons and surrender obediently. We can leave you with intact corpses."

At that moment, Huang Wei, who stood at the front, spoke calmly.

The bloody sight before him made his face turn slightly pale, but he quickly adapted.

In his hand, a small emerald-green sphere was gradually condensing.

After using his Second Soul Ring, he had gathered the damage from these people's attacks that had struck the Tortoise Shell—the damage that should have been reflected back as a critical strike.

Even so, once it was fired, the people in front of him would either die or be crippled.

Soon, the team members below rushed up as well, surrounding the remaining Wild Wolf Gang members from all sides.

Worship Hall

"Boss, what do we do now?"

Cold sweat streamed down the Second Boss's face as he asked.

The First Boss said grimly, "Fight our way out!"

Then he roared, "Black Bear Possession!" Four Soul Rings lit up around his body.

His body instantly grew massive and muscular, brimming with power.

"Thunderstorm Monkey Possession!" the Second Boss roared.

Lightning flickered across his body.

As for the Third Boss, his Martial Soul was an enormous, broad black saber.

The surviving members of the Wild Wolf Gang had long since summoned their Martial Souls.

"Follow me and kill!!"

The First Boss roared and charged straight ahead.

His Fourth Soul Ring lit up as he unleashed a Soul Skill.

"Your opponent is me!" Gu Changfeng shouted, about to rush forward.

But Huang Wei stopped him.

"Don't move. Trust me. A mere Soul Ancestor can't break my defense."

Huang Wei smiled slightly.

Gu Changfeng froze, while Hu Liena and the others nodded.

"Alright!" He stopped moving as well.

The next second, Huang Wei's Tortoise Shell blocked everyone's attacks.

"How can this be? What kind of Tortoise Shell is this? It's actually this hard!"

The three bosses' expressions changed drastically in disbelief. The Third Boss's greatsaber was cracking apart.

"My turn. Have a taste of your own attacks."

Huang Wei smiled faintly and directly launched the emerald-green sphere condensed in his hand.

For some reason, the three bosses sensed danger. Their pupils constricted as they shouted, "Retreat!"

"Can you escape?"

"Too late."

The corners of Huang Wei's lips curled upward.

Boom! The next second, emerald-green energy exploded ahead.

The First Boss's body exploded on the spot into a shower of blood and flesh.

Everyone present stared wide-eyed at the scene, terrified beyond measure.

The Wild Wolf Gang members broke out in cold sweat and retreated frantically.

"Big Brother!!"

The Second Boss and Third Boss howled miserably.

What was that thing just now? It blew the First Boss to pieces in one strike...

"I'll kill you!!"

The two were completely enraged. They unleashed their strongest attacks and struck Huang Wei's Tortoise Shell.

Huang Wei did not use his Second Soul Skill.

The next second, with a loud bang, their bodies exploded outright.

They had been hit by a Counterattack Critical.

The bodies of Soul Elders simply could not withstand it.

Seeing this, Gu Changfeng, Yan, and Xie Yue could not help but tremble.

The others were the same.

Huang Wei was somewhat twisted mentally. Rather than feeling disgusted or afraid at the sight, he felt a little excited.

As for the others, although it was not their first time seeing blood, their expressions were still rather unpleasant after witnessing this.

"The Wild Wolf Gang's three leaders have been executed! Charge and wipe out the remaining remnants!"

Gu Changfeng shouted.

The next second, everyone charged forward and slaughtered all the remaining members of the Wild Wolf Gang.

They left the cleanup to the others.

"Let's go back." Hu Liena's expression did not look very good.

"I didn't expect this trip to be nothing but a formality. We just stood by and watched. I only made one move, and it was against small fry."

Yan complained a little.

"You want to fight? Then go to Death Valley. There's plenty of killing waiting for you there." Xie Yue said with a teasing expression.

As soon as Yan heard that, his expression turned unpleasant. That place truly was not fit for humans, but it was extremely effective for improving one's strength and cultivation.

At that moment, a figure flew down from the sky. It was Dean Foster.

"Dean, why are you here?" Huang Wei asked.

"I've been here all along. By order of Your Eminence the Pope, I was secretly protecting you. You did very well, especially you, Young Master Wei."

"The mission was completed exceptionally well. For your first time seeing blood, you remained so calm. As expected of the Personal Disciple chosen by Your Eminence the Pope!"

Foster clapped his hands and praised Huang Wei without reservation.

Huang Wei said, "Mm, I'm very strong."

He gladly accepted the praise.

"You really aren't modest," Yan said.

"The three of you, Your Eminence the Pope said that once you completed the mission, I was to take you to the Papal Palace."

Foster said.

"Alright." Hu Liena nodded.

Foster used his Fifth Soul Skill, and Huang Wei and the others once again experienced the joy of flying.

They flew rapidly toward Spirit City.

Below, Gu Changfeng and the others quickly finished cleaning up. Watching the scene before them, they were deeply envious, but Gu Changfeng knew that such treatment required corresponding strength.

They did not have it, so they remained behind to clean up.

Spirit City, Papal Palace.

Everyone soon returned.

They entered the Papal Palace.

Everyone bowed in salute.

Bibi Dong held a jeweled scepter as she sat upon the Supreme Throne.

She listened to Foster's report.

She was very satisfied with Huang Wei's performance.

Yue Guan and Gui Mei, standing nearby, were also shocked.

"Xiao Wei, you performed very well. Your teacher promised before that once you reached Level 20, you could graduate. I didn't expect it to happen so quickly."

Bibi Dong spoke, because Huang Wei would next be going somewhere—Death Valley, a place every Spirit Hall prodigy had to visit.

She had already told Huang Wei about it before.

Huang Wei said, "Teacher, I don't want to graduate yet. I want to participate in the Continental Elite Soul Master Tournament in a few years."

Seeing him volunteer, everyone was very satisfied.

Bibi Dong nodded. "From now on, you may arrange your time at the academy as you wish, including your cultivation. But before that, you must enter Death Valley and walk out alive."

"When you break through to Soul Elder before turning ten, your teacher will name you the Holy Son of Spirit Hall."

Yan, Xie Yue, and Foster were all startled by Bibi Dong's decision.

Hu Liena, however, was not too surprised. Given Huang Wei's talent and strength, it was only a matter of time.

"Your Eminence the Pope, Spirit Hall has never had the position of Holy Son..."

Foster immediately said.

"If it does not exist, then create it." Bibi Dong's voice was icy and brooked no doubt.

Foster shuddered and immediately nodded. "Yes!"

"Alright, you may all leave. Go collect your rewards. Xiao Wei, stay behind."
