Ultimate Fire
The moment she saw the flames, Meng Hongchen felt inexplicably panicked, and the fire-attribute Soul Power in her eyes became restless and somewhat out of her control.
Based on her previous observations of Chen Yuan's matches and the absurd dominance he displayed against fire-attribute Soul Master, Meng Hongchen formed a bold guess in her mind.
However, she herself couldn't believe this guess.
But Chen Yuan before her was acting recklessly and arrogantly, seemingly unaffected by her poison in the slightest. Apart from Ultimate Attribute, Meng Hongchen couldn't think of any other possibility.
But how many years has it been since a single person with Ultimate Attribute appeared across the entire continent? Could her luck really be that bad? Did she just happen to stumble upon it? And did it just happen to be the Ultimate Fire?
Fifth Soul Skill: Ice Fire Poison Dragon Drill!
The broken sword was repaired by Meng Hongchen with ice. His body rose into the air and began to spin rapidly, quickly forming an ice-blue vortex with specks of red light in the center.
Meng Hongchen's prized Crimson-Eyed Ice Toad Poison has so far had no effect on Chen Yuan, so this attack is her last resort.
The two close-range Soul Tool have been destroyed. If this move fails to harm Chen Yuan, Meng Hongchen will be out of options.
As Meng Hongchen unleashed his strongest fifth Soul Skill, a light shone from his body. This light was completely different from the Wall of Tenacity; it was the Level 7 Soul Tool, the Ring of Displacement!
The Ring of Teleportation can only be used once a day, but its maximum Teleportation distance can reach one hundred meters. Whether for offense or escape, it is a rare and powerful Soul Tool.
Meng Hongchen Teleportation behind Chen Yuan, and the raging vortex was about to strike Chen Yuan, but a suddenly rising ice wall briefly delayed Meng Hongchen's attack.
Chen Yuan's right fist transformed into a lion's head of flames. He suddenly exerted force from his waist and blasted it towards the ice wall behind him. The Ultimate Fire instantly melted the ice wall constructed by Ling Luochеn, and the remaining force struck Meng Hongchen.
Her entire set of Soul Tool Armor couldn't withstand Chen Yuan's attack. The spinning vortex suddenly stopped, and the ice and fire attributes within her body seemed to have encountered their natural enemy, showing no intention of resisting and fleeing in defeat.
A Soul King was blasted out of the arena by Chen Yuan's punch. When hit by Chen Yuan's attack, Meng Hongchen's trigger-activated Defensive Soul Tool was activated, but it had no effect whatsoever.
Fortunately, there was a referee in this match. Huang Jinxu flashed in front of Meng Hongchen and slapped Chen Yuan's Flame Fist away.
Then, he used his Soul Power to support Meng Hongchen, preventing the little girl, who had already lost her ability to fight, from suffering secondary injuries from falling from a great height.
At the same time, the rest of the Sun Moon team were also dealt with by Shrek. Those people were just Soul King who had reached their current level by taking drugs. It was just that their Soul Tool were a bit troublesome. But Shrek Academy had two high-level Soul Emperor, so it just took a little more effort.
As Huang Jinxu used his Soul Power to support Meng Hongchen's descent, he scanned the domineering flame Soul Power remaining on Meng Hongchen's body with his spiritual Spiritual Power. Huang Jinxu could now confirm that Chen Yuan's flames had definitely reached their Ultimate Attribute, at least under the amplified state of activating all his Soul Skill.
Previously, Chen Yuan had killed the fire-attribute Soul Master from the Star Luo Royal Academy with a single glare; the flames could even harm him, a Titled Douluo.
Previously, Huang Jinxu only had doubts, but now, seeing Chen Yuan's outrageous performance, Huang Jinxu can conclude that even without the Ultimate Fire under normal circumstances, Chen Yuan has reached it under the amplified state.
Huang Jinxu had seen the intelligence report that the Star Luo Empire had previously obtained, and he also knew about what happened at the auction afterwards.
Are this generation of Shrek really that rich?
One Ultimate Ice of Twin Martial Souls, and now Ultimate Fire has emerged—is Shrek truly destined for greatness?
Despite Huang Jinxu's many questions, the match was over, and as soon as he landed, he noticed that Chen Yuan's aura was steadily decreasing.
As expected, the transformation hasn't been fully completed yet, but has it already reached the pinnacle? Ultimate Attribute are indeed not so easy to come by. For a fifteen-year-old Soul King to already possess Ultimate Attribute is simply terrifying.
However, judging from the current situation, a complete transformation will probably only happen in the next few years at most. We should discuss this with His Majesty as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, Huang Jinxu immediately walked to the center of the arena and announced the result of the match.
Shrek Academy wins the first match of the finals!
"The next match starts in half an hour."
After announcing the results, Huang Jinxu ignored the reactions of the audience and immediately flew to Xu Jiawei was watching the match from the city wall.
At this moment, standing next to Xu Jiawei was a tall, middle-aged man exuding a solemn and murderous aura.
"My dear minister, why are you in such a hurry? Is there something wrong?"
Xu Jiawei gestured to Huang Jinxu that there was no need for so much formality and asked Huang Jinxu why he was in such a hurry.
Huang Jinxu's martial soul is the Heavenly Fiend Lone Star, which destined him to be lonely and helpless in this life, and also made him extremely ruthless. However, now that he is a retainer of the Star Luo Empire, he naturally has to think more about the Star Luo Empire.
Huang Jinxu glanced at Duke of White Tiger Dai Hao of the White Tiger Clan, then released his Soul Power to seal off the surroundings, ensuring that his words would not be known to a third person besides himself and Xu Jiawei.
"Your Majesty, Chen Yuan from Shrek has a problem with his martial soul. Based on my personal experience and observation, after activating all his Soul Skill, he has probably reached the legendary Ultimate Fire!"
"Completing the Martial Soul Evolution and completely transforming into its Ultimate Attribute is only a matter of time. Whether to kill or spare it, Your Majesty, please make a decision as soon as possible."
"This is a very important matter, are you sure?"
"Pretty close."
Upon hearing this, Xu Jiawei's expression turned somewhat unnaturally shocked, but he quickly regained his composure and remained calm as before.
His tightly clasped hands betrayed the turmoil in his heart at that moment.
Xu Jiawei's self-sight quickly locked onto Chen Yuan of the Shrek Academy. He originally thought he had thought highly of Chen Yuan, but now he realized that he had underestimated the boy.
Xu Jiawei had no doubt about Huang Jinxu's words. If a Titled Douluo had personally experienced an attack from a Soul King and still couldn't detect anything unusual, that would be a real problem.
A Soul King with Over-Limit Soul Ring at the age of fifteen, Soul Skill are all confirmed to be amplification type Soul Skill, and who also has several Self-Created Soul Skill at this age, has a high probability of becoming Limit Douluo in the future.
There's also a twelve-year-old Soul Elder Master whose Martial Soul Fusion Skill will be used against him, and now we have to add another one: he might become the next Ultimate Fire.
The Ultimate Fire is different from other Ultimate Attribute; it is the attribute of the Sea God Pavilion Master who saved the Three Original Three Kingdoms of Douluo.
It is also historically confirmed that this is the attribute that most effectively counters Soul Engineer.
The Soul Tool used by Soul Engineer are ultimately made of metal, and the Ultimate Fire of a master can melt all that metal.
Apart from the Ultimate Fire, the Ultimate Wind and Ultimate Wood attributes that have appeared have never shown an overwhelming advantage when facing the Soul Tool of the Sun Moon Empire.
Xu Jiawei weighed the pros and cons in his mind. The boy was already fifteen years old and still a student at Shrek. The probability of getting the Star Luo Empire to work for him was not high.
Moreover, he was accompanied by the Young Sect Master of the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect, which clearly indicated that the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect had begun to place their bets on this young man.
Xu Jiawei's arrival at this time is at most icing on the cake, but it can still leave a good impression on the young man.
Huo Yuhao has been confirmed to possess Ultimate Attribute, Shrek wouldn't let go of a genius with Ultimate Attribute. In comparison, the probability of recruiting Chen Yuan seems quite high?
Looking at Xiao Xiao and Ning Tian beside Chen Yuan, Xu Jiawei suddenly had an idea.
"He is from the Shrek Academy, and also a citizen of the Three Great Empires of the Douluo Continent. Our current enemy is the Sun Moon Empire. How can we do something like stifling a genius?"
"Perhaps when he grows up in the future, he will be able to lead us to resist the invasion of the Sun Moon Empire, just like that ancestor four thousand years ago."
"The Sun Moon Empire has become increasingly unstable in recent years, and war will likely break out soon."
Xu Jiawei felt it was unsafe to leave it unattended and that he needed to take some action.
"Let Jiu Jiu get to know him. It's easier to get along with someone his own age. At least we can make him feel more favorably toward our Star Luo Empire. As it stands, he's not entirely one of Shrek's people yet, so there's a possibility of winning him over. I don't want to kill a junior student until it's absolutely necessary."
Xu Jiawei simply refused to believe it. His Star Luo Empire's princess was incredibly beautiful; how could she not establish a friendly relationship with a fifteen-year-old boy?
Moreover, according to intelligence, Chen Yuan does not have a strong sense of belonging to the Heavenly Soul Empire. As long as he does not completely Shrek Academy, there is a possibility of winning him over.
Even if he joins Shrek's Inner Court, he will graduate one day. Unless he is accepted as a disciple by an elder of the Sea God Pavilion or marries into a direct descendant of Shrek Academy, Chen Yuan cannot be considered one of Shrek's own people.
For Shrek Academy, the upcoming individual elimination rounds and team battles mean they only need to eliminate three members of Sun Moon to secure victory.
Looking towards the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy's camp from afar, Chen Yuan noticed that they were using an unfamiliar Soul Tool to quickly heal their injuries. Ma Rulong, who had been eliminated earlier, had already recovered considerably.
His skin no longer shows obvious burns.
Judging from the looks of it, Ma Rulong will probably still have to play in the individual elimination rounds later, after all, he is the only Soul Emperor of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.
"Chen Yuan! I really owe you a lot just now! If it weren't for you, I would have been in danger."
"If you knew it was dangerous, you shouldn't have switched places with Jiang Nannan. She has Invincible Golden Body and Teleportation; she couldn't possibly get hurt."
"Wasn't I in a hurry?"
Xu Sanshi was somewhat embarrassed; he had indeed acted somewhat recklessly, charging straight at the enemy.
If it weren't for Chen Yuan's Flame Fist, he would have been sent off the stage by the Soul Cannon.
"Hey, Bei Bei and I have both revealed our hidden power. How long are you planning to keep hiding it?"
"I'm not hiding anymore. You'll all see what I'm up to in a moment. I'm going to steal the show."
"Hehe, forget it, just don't make a fool of yourself."
We might have to deal with an Level 8 Melee Soul Tool later, which will definitely require our full strength. Moreover, Shrek knows that Chen Yuan has abilities similar to Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi, so there's nothing wrong with showing them.
Anyway, Chen Yuan still has other tricks up his sleeve.
"Brother Chen Yuan, what were you and Senior Xu talking about just now? It was so secretive."
We chatted about how I should Seven-in-a-row later.
Ruffled Xiao Xiao's little head as she leaned in, Chen Yuan casually remarked that for him, Seven-in-a-row was practically guaranteed unless his opponent conceded early.
"Then it seems Brother Chen Yuan's plan is going to fail. We just need to beat three people in this match. But Brother Chen Yuan was really impressive in his previous match against the Star Luo Royal Academy."
Half an hour passed quickly. Huang Jinxu went back on stage, glanced at Chen Yuan subtly, and then went to the center of the arena.
After the leaders of Shrek and Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy handed him the list of participants for the individual elimination rounds, Huang Jinxu cleared his throat.
Everyone present—the audience, the participating teams—all turned their attention to him.
"The second round of the finals, the individual elimination round, is now beginning!"
"Please welcome both players to the arena!"
Compared to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, where four members were injured, Shrek was clearly in a much easier situation.
Wang Yan had already decided that Chen Yuan would start. After hearing Huang Jinxu's voice, Chen Yuan stood up and slowly walked onto the stage.
"Go Chen Yuan!"
"Rest assured."
After Chen Yuan stepped onto the arena, he looked towards the Sun Moon team, somewhat curious about who their starting lineup would be.
Ma Rulong walked heavily onto the stage. Now, all three of their strongest members were injured, and facing Shrek, which was almost at its peak, it seemed that defeat was inevitable.
