Su Ming, Wang Sheng VS Yu Tianheng, Dugu Yan

Another girl, with short dark purple hair, exuded an imposing aura, her emerald eyes holding a strange glint.

Upon seeing the girl in the blue tight-fitting outfit with purple hair and green eyes, Su Ming immediately knew who she was.

However, just to be sure, Su Ming asked Wang Sheng, who was beside him. After receiving confirmation from Wang Sheng, Su Ming walked directly towards the two of them, with Wang Sheng following closely behind.

Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan, who were about to register for the 2v2 Gambling Match, stopped and waited as they saw someone walking directly towards them.

"Judging by your attire, you must be Yu Tianheng, the captain of the Imperial Dou Team from Heaven Dou Royal Academy, right?"

Following that, Su Ming looked at the purple-haired girl.

"And this must be Miss Dugu Yan, the vice-captain of the Imperial Dou Team."

Dugu Yan said.

"Yes, but who are you?"

After she spoke, Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan quietly looked at Su Ming, as if waiting for him to introduce himself.

"My name is Su Ming, from Shrek Academy. If nothing unexpected happens, I will be the student representing Shrek Academy in the next All Continent Soul Master Elite Tournament. I will likely be the captain or vice-captain."

Upon hearing the name Su Ming, Yu Tianheng's pupils involuntarily widened, and he said in shock.

"You are Su Ming? One of the four new genius youths at my aunt's academy, the strongest among them, Su Ming."

Dugu Yan beside him was also shocked.

"You are Su Ming?"

As the captain and vice-captain of the Heaven Dou Royal Team, the academy naturally delivered new information to them, especially since neither of them were ordinary individuals.

Behind Yu Tianheng was the Blue Electric Tyrant Sect, and he was even the young sect master. Although Dugu Yan did not have such a powerful backing, she had a grandfather who was a Titled Douluo.

Therefore, within a day of Blue Tyrant Academy changing its name, both of them were aware of the new students and teachers. Su Ming, being the strongest among the Shrek Academy students, naturally knew this as well.

Su Ming smiled and replied.

"Yes, I didn't expect to meet you at the Great Soul Arena. Since we've met, I have no other purpose than to spar. What do you say?"

Yu Tianheng thought for a moment, glanced at Dugu Yan beside him, then at Wang Sheng behind Su Ming, and agreed.

"Sure, do you want to do 1v1 or 2v2?"

Su Ming glanced at Wang Sheng beside him and said with a smile.

"Let's do 2v2."

Immediately after, the four of them went to register for the 2v2 Gambling Match. As they learned that it was their turn in half an hour, Su Ming took Wang Sheng to the lounge to introduce their respective Soul Skills.

"Wang Sheng, my first Soul Skill, as you know, allows for flight and can provide a 10% boost to all your attributes. This boost can be used independently."

"My second Soul Skill is to cover my entire body with lightning, increasing attack power by 100%. It also comes with a Lightning Flash." (The actual age of this Soul Ring is a thousand-year purple Soul Ring, but it's concealed by a Golden Finger.)

"My third Soul Skill is an area-of-effect attack, Ice Storm."

After introducing himself, Su Ming then asked Wang Sheng.

"I know your first Soul Skill is Flame Tiger Claw, but what about your second and third?"

"Brother Ming, my second Soul Skill is Fire Pattern Bodyguard, mainly to increase defense and speed."

"My third Soul Skill is Blazing Roar, which emits a fiery sonic wave attack, causing widespread deterrence and accompanied by high-temperature explosions."

After understanding Wang Sheng's Soul Skills, Su Ming began to formulate a plan for the upcoming match.

"Wang Sheng, when we get on stage, I'll give you a full-body enhancement. You just need to stall Dugu Yan. If she uses poison to attack you, burn it with your flames."

"You've been here for three or four years, you should know Dugu Yan's Soul Skills. If she really uses her third Soul Skill to poison you, get off the stage immediately. If you get poisoned, just admit defeat. Your life is more important."

"Understood, Brother Ming, I'll be careful."

After a short wait, a staff member knocked on the door to notify them that the 2v2 Gambling Match was about to begin and asked both parties to enter.

Both sides took the stage and prepared themselves.

Seeing that both sides were ready and in a combat state, the host on stage officially announced the start of the 2v2 Soul Fighting Competition.

As soon as the host finished speaking, Su Ming summoned his Martial Soul, and the first Soul Ring under his feet lit up. Two clouds separated from the cloud on Su Ming's right hand and merged into the bodies of Wang Sheng and Su Ming respectively.

After the fusion, Su Ming felt the enhancement throughout his body, and the second yellow Soul Ring under his feet lit up.

"Second Soul Skill, Thunder Cloud Possession."

After possessing himself, Su Ming was filled with lightning and charged directly at Yu Tianheng on the opposite side.

On the other side, Yu Tianheng also possessed his Martial Soul and used his first Soul Skill, "Thunder Dragon Claw."

In the initial clash, Su Ming clearly had the upper hand. Both used Lightning Power, but Su Ming's lightning, after two rounds of enhancement, was more powerful than Yu Tianheng's attack.

On the other side, Wang Sheng, seeing that Su Ming had made his move, directly unleashed his second Soul Skill, "Fire Pattern Bodyguard," to increase his defense and attack, directly engaging Dugu Yan and making it difficult for her to assist Yu Tianheng.

Yu Tianheng, realizing his first Soul Skill was inferior to the opponent's, did not hesitate and immediately activated his second Soul Ring, "Thunderous Wrath."

Countless lightning bolts were instantly released around Yu Tianheng, spreading outwards like small snakes.

Seeing this, Su Ming activated his second Soul Ring, "Lightning Flash," to dodge. After Yu Tianheng's "Thunderous Wrath" effect dissipated.

Su Ming used another Lightning Flash, appearing in front of Yu Tianheng. The Lightning Power gathered in his left hand, unleashing an Eight Level Collapse.

One punch landed on Yu Tianheng's stomach. Yu Tianheng clutched his belly and staggered back several steps, but ultimately did not fall.

Dugu Yan, who was entangled with Wang Sheng, saw Yu Tianheng injured and immediately became anxious. A purple Soul Ring lit up, precisely Dugu Yan's third Soul Skill, Jade Phosphorus Purple Poison, which sprayed towards Wang Sheng.

Wang Sheng recognized it as Jade Phosphorus Purple Poison and knew he couldn't touch it at the moment. Of course, he couldn't surrender directly; he had to at least try to fight.

Wang Sheng didn't dally. He immediately activated a purple Soul Ring, unleashing "Blazing Roar." The fiery sound wave impacted with high temperatures, attempting to see if it could resist the Jade Phosphorus Purple Poison.

The moment the two met, although the high temperature scorched a portion, it still couldn't resist the erosion of the Jade Phosphorus Purple Poison. Seeing it was unstoppable, Wang Sheng didn't hesitate and jumped off the competition stage.

Dugu Yan saw the opponent jump off the stage, retracted her Soul Skill, and rushed directly to Yu Tianheng's side, preparing to deal with Su Ming together.

Seeing Dugu Yan approach, Su Ming naturally knew Wang Sheng had left the stage. He also knew Yu Tianheng had a third Soul Skill, Wrath of Thunder, which amplified his entire body.

Seeing the two together, Su Ming's third Soul Ring lit up, releasing "Mysterious Ice Storm." A giant cloud enveloped Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan, and hailstones carried by the wind rapidly pelted them.

After using his third Soul Skill, Su Ming used Lightning Flash. By then, his hands had condensed with ice attribute energy. He flashed in front of them and slapped at them with both hands, instantly freezing their lower bodies and rendering them immobile.

Then, using another Lightning Flash, he exited the range of his third Soul Skill. He used his Martial Soul's innate ability to summon a cloud above himself to rain, healing and restoring his Soul Power, then quietly watched them be blown by the wind and smashed by ice.

Yu Tianheng, frozen by the ice, knew that even using his third Soul Skill, "Wrath of Thunder," wouldn't allow him to defeat the opponent. He used his second skill to shatter the ice.

He then changed direction. The host on the stage said, "We surrender."
