Because Luo Yan and Xiao Wu were newcomers, their betting odds were very high.
This led many degenerate gamblers to hope they could turn a bicycle into a motorcycle.
Seeing this scene, those who had bet on Luo Yan to win felt like slapping themselves.
But what they didn't know was that this particular bet was very likely the most correct one they had ever made in the Great Soul Fighting Arena in their entire lives.
On the arena stage.
Seeing that Luo Yan and Xiao Wu had not released their martial souls, Wild Dog and Shadow Wolf, like the audience, assumed the other side had been scared silly.
Therefore, they did not strike immediately.
Shadow Wolf looked at Xiao Wu with a lecherous gaze and said, "Beauty, if you accompany us for a night, how about we just surrender?"
Ever since Xiao Wu stepped onto the stage, his eyes had not left her figure.
"Brother Luo Yan?"
Hearing Shadow Wolf's words, Xiao Wu looked at Luo Yan.
The murderous intent in her eyes made her meaning self-evident.
"Hmm, go ahead! But try not to dirty your hands!" Luo Yan did not stop Xiao Wu.
Seeing Luo Yan nod, Xiao Wu didn't waste any words; her body vanished on the spot.
The next moment, she appeared behind Shadow Wolf.
Snap!
Her demon power manifested into a whip, lashing fiercely against Shadow Wolf's body.
In an instant, Shadow Wolf was knocked flat onto the ground.
That wasn't even the most terrifying part.
A shocking wound appeared across Shadow Wolf's entire back, the flesh and blood caving inward.
A segment of his white spine was already exposed, missing the heart by only a hair's breadth.
At this moment, the intense pain from his back surged rapidly to his brain, causing Shadow Wolf to gasp for air while lying on the ground, not even daring to turn over.
Bang!
Wild Dog, who was standing beside Shadow Wolf, was also swatted away by a giant palm manifested from spiritual power, slamming heavily into the ground.
On the surface, Wild Dog's injuries appeared lighter than Shadow Wolf's, but he had no idea how many of his bones had been shattered; his condition was no different from Shadow Wolf's.
Just then, Luo Yan flicked his finger slightly, and two tiny drops of Flood Dragon Poison shot out, landing on Shadow Wolf's wound.
This was the venom produced after his evolution, which had been stored within his Demon Core.
Because they were so small and moved at such high speed, even Xiao Wu did not notice.
Furthermore, there was a seal of his spiritual power on them that would only unlock in three to five days; by the time the Flood Dragon Poison entered Shadow Wolf's body then, he would not live for more than an hour.
"Xiao Wu, you can come back now!"
After finishing, Luo Yan called a halt to Xiao Wu, who still wanted to continue attacking.
Xiao Wu glanced at the Wild Wolf Team lying on the ground like dead dogs and returned to Luo Yan's side.
Luo Yan naturally saw what was on Xiao Wu's mind, so he ruffled her hair and transmitted his voice: "Don't worry, Xiao Wu, this man will definitely die!"
Hearing this, the trace of reluctance in Xiao Wu's heart finally dissipated.
At this moment, the stunned host finally snapped back to reality.
He looked at Xiao Wu as if he were looking at a monster.
It wasn't just him; the audience in the stands was dumbfounded. Not only were those who had bet on the Wild Wolf Team shocked, but even those who had bet on Luo Yan and Xiao Wu with a sliver of hope found it hard to believe.
They truly had not expected that such powerful strength was hidden beneath Xiao Wu's cute exterior.
"Host, hurry up and announce the result; we're waiting for the next match!" Luo Yan said with a smile, reminding him as he saw the man still silent.
Hearing this, the host came to his senses.
Coupled with the strength Xiao Wu had just displayed, he felt that the smile on Luo Yan's face was somewhat eerie.
The host didn't know if this seemingly harmless youth also possessed the same strength as that girl, or perhaps even more.
"Let... let us congratulate the Dragon Rabbit Team! They have won this soul fight!"
"Next, the Dragon Rabbit Team will face the Wind Sword Team. Please wait ten minutes; the soul fight will officially begin in ten minutes!"
During the first sentence, the host still stuttered, clearly not having fully recovered from his shock.
Hearing the host announce the opponent for the next match, the discussions in the audience stands suddenly grew louder.
Everyone gradually regained their composure because of this piece of news.
"We're so lucky today to actually get to see the Wind Sword Team."
You should know that the Wind Sword Team can be considered the gatekeepers of the purple-gold rank at our Great Soul Fighting Arena in Suotuo City; to obtain a purple-gold soul fighting badge, one must defeat them.
"That's right, the Wind Sword Team consists of a Soul King and a level forty-nine Soul Ancestor. I heard a while back that Zhe Feng had broken through to become a Soul King; I wonder if they've already absorbed their soul ring!"
"One side defeated two Soul Elders in seconds without using their martial soul, and the other side has two Soul Kings—this is going to be good!"
"Although that young girl's attack earlier was beyond my understanding, I'm betting on the Wind Sword Team this time!"
"..."
Upon hearing the arrangement for the next soul fight, not a single person in the spectator stands left; in fact, more people kept pouring in.
On the arena stage, Luo Yan and Xiao Wu did not leave, but instead sat cross-legged on the ground, waiting quietly for their next opponents.
Ten minutes is neither fast nor slow.
As the waiting time ended, the host received a message from backstage and began to raise the soundproof soul formation around the arena.
"Let us welcome the Wind Sword Team!"
"..."
Following the host's introduction of the Wind Sword Team, two figures, a man and a woman appearing to be in their youth, walked slowly onto the arena stage.
They both wore masks on their faces, obscuring most of their features.
However, they shared one identical characteristic behind them: a head of white hair.
Compared to the Wild Wolf Team from before, the ones who came up this time were finally normal people, and they didn't look at Xiao Wu with lecherous eyes the moment they arrived.
"As for the introduction of the Dragon Rabbit Team, I won't repeat it!"
"Let us look forward to the upcoming clash of titans between the Dragon Rabbit Team and the Wind Sword Team—who will ultimately claim victory?"
"Stay tuned!"
The host's words stirred the emotions of the audience present.
The spectators at the scene began to cheer continuously in response to the host's voice.
"The match officially begins!"
This time, when the host announced the start of the match, Luo Yan and Xiao Wu remained standing where they were.
Having experienced the incident with Qian Mian, neither the host nor the spectators in the stands were in a hurry to underestimate the two of them.
The Wind Sword Team opposite Luo Yan immediately released their martial souls.
"Level fifty-four assault-type battle Soul King, martial soul Wind Sword, please advise!"
"Level fifty-one support-type battle Soul King, martial soul Zhe Feng Grass, please advise!"
A white longsword appeared in the hand of the young man standing in front, with several symbols carved into the blade.
A gentle breeze suddenly emerged around the woman, and a white blade of grass hovered above her left hand, swaying in the wind even within the enclosed arena.
Five soul rings appeared on their bodies as well—two yellow, two purple, and one black, identical for both, which could be considered the optimal soul ring configuration.
"Not bad strength!"
Luo Yan smiled lightly.
However, although Luo Yan said this, he didn't take the others to heart in the slightest.
"Although the two of you are very strong, please release your martial souls; we don't want to win unfairly!"
Seeing that Luo Yan and Xiao Wu still had no intention of releasing their martial souls, Wind Sword couldn't help but frown.
