Sparring Match

Gongyang Mo and Xi Xi are also quite capable among the new students; Gongyang Mo's Soul Power Level is nearing the thirty-level Soul Elder rank, while Xi Xi's level is the lowest, still a few levels away from becoming a Soul Elder.

"Are there any impressive individuals among this year's new students?" Bei Bei inquired.

"There is a new student named Dai Yueheng whose Martial Soul is a White Tiger, and his soul power is nearing thirty. His two teammates, Chen Zifeng and Ling Luochen, also possess decent strength."

Although Ma Xiaotao said this, her expression remained indifferent. Her own soul power level was already very high, and she possessed one more third soul ring than anyone else; the first place in this year's new student tournament could practically be considered already in her pocket.

"It's fortunate that Dai Yueheng and that girl from the Zhu Clan didn't achieve Martial Soul resonance; otherwise, with a Martial Soul Fusion Skill, even Big Sister Xiaotao would find it difficult to contend," Gongyang Mo leaned in and said with a smile.

Ma Xiaotao's delicate brows arched as a cluster of dark red flames ignited in her palm, and she said with some disgust, "Keep five meters away from me, or don't blame me if I burn all your hair off!"

Gongyang Mo's face, which was already handsome and slightly feminine, suddenly turned pale, and he quickly moved away from Ma Xiaotao as if fleeing.

"You must come to watch the tournament in a few days! I'll show you the great power of your big sister then!" Ma Xiaotao's fair palm slapped Bei Bei's shoulder hard, looking quite threatening.

"Of course," Bei Bei did not refuse.

"Hehe, there's another reason I called you this time, and that is to be my sparring partner," Ma Xiaotao pulled Bei Bei over and laughed.

"Ah! Me?" Bei Bei pointed at himself, feeling that he was about to have bad luck. "Don't you have teammates? Let them train with you! You can build some rapport while you're at it!"

"Xi Xi is an agility-type, her soul power is low, and her attack power isn't outstanding, so she can't put much pressure on me. And this sissy Gongyang Mo is purely a support-type," Ma Xiaotao said with a smile. "Big Sister doesn't have many friends, so naturally, I thought of you for such a good opportunity!"

Gongyang Mo and Xi Xi did not say much; it was clear that the group had reached a consensus beforehand, though it was uncertain if Ma Xiaotao had used force to persuade them.

The four of them arrived at a small grove.

Ma Xiaotao walked to the other side, set her stance, and looked somewhat impatient.

On the other side, the three formed a circle, and Bei Bei said, "Let everyone introduce their abilities first! I am currently a twenty-third-level assault-type Soul Grand Master with the Radiant Sacred Dragon Martial Soul."

Following that, Gongyang Mo said, "Little brother is truly a genius! I am currently a twenty-ninth-level support-type Soul Grand Master with the Rainbow Dragon Martial Soul!"

Xi Xi's voice was a bit soft, and she said somewhat taciturnly, "Twenty-sixth level, agility-type, Martial Soul Lightning Leopard."

"Since we are cooperating for the first time and aren't very familiar with each other, I will take the lead, Xi Xi will provide support from the side, and Gongyang Mo, you just focus on fully supporting us," Bei Bei took the initiative of the team and made the tactical arrangements.

Although Gongyang Mo had the highest soul power level, as a support-type, he could only cooperate, and Xi Xi's personality was not competitive, so the command fell into Bei Bei's hands.

"Are you done yet?" Ma Xiaotao urged impatiently, seeing them whispering over there.

"We can begin," Bei Bei walked to the front, while Xi Xi and Gongyang Mo stood behind.

Ma Xiaotao activated her Evil Fire Phoenix Martial Soul Possession, her entire body burning with dark red flames, and two yellow and one purple soul rings rose beneath her feet.

The scorching flames instantly raised the surrounding temperature, and under the Phoenix Fire, even the air began to distort slightly.

A high-pitched dragon roar erupted from Bei Bei's mouth, and a dazzling golden light exploded on his forehead, transforming into golden lightning that swirled around his body. A white-gold dragon scale appeared between his brows, with faint traces of lightning flickering within it.

Two purple soul rings rose slowly from beneath his feet, circling his body.

Ma Xiaotao had already seen Bei Bei's soul rings and did not feel much surprise.

However, Gongyang Mo and Xi Xi were dumbfounded upon witnessing such an unconventional soul ring configuration.

"First Soul Skill, Phoenix Fire Line!"

"Second Soul Skill, Bathing Fire Phoenix!"

The two soul rings beneath Ma Xiaotao's feet flashed in sequence, and surging Phoenix Fire erupted from her body. The golden-red flames burning all over her soared into the sky, boosting all her attributes.

A thick column of golden-red flame sprayed wildly from her mouth, heading straight for Bei Bei and the others.

"What are you still staring at? Hurry up and support me!" Bei Bei shouted at Gongyang Mo behind him.

Hearing the shout, Gongyang Mo snapped out of his daze and immediately activated his Martial Soul Possession.

A pair of wide wings spread from his back, composed of a magnificent rainbow, shimmering with seven crystal-clear colors.

Two yellow soul rings appeared around him as he unleashed his first soul skill, Crimson Power, and his second soul skill, Orange Soul.

One red and one orange ring landed on top of Bei Bei's head, and he felt his own strength and soul power receive a significant boost.

"First Soul Skill, Radiant Dragon Claw!"

Golden lightning condensed into a massive dragon claw on Bei Bei's arm, which he swiped toward the incoming pillar of fire.

The violent golden lightning collided with the dark red flames, instantly creating a massive explosion.

Taking this opportunity, Xi Xi activated her Lightning Leopard Martial Soul Possession, transforming into purple lightning as she attacked Ma Xiaotao from the side.

How could Ma Xiaotao give her such an opportunity? The purple soul ring beneath her feet flashed, and a pair of flaming wings spread from her back, with a gorgeous phoenix tail trailing behind her.

This was her third soul skill, Phoenix Wings Soaring.

This skill allowed Ma Xiaotao to possess flight capabilities, increased the power of her Phoenix Fire by one hundred percent, and expanded her attack range by fifty percent.

Flying into the air, Ma Xiaotao dodged Xi Xi's attack.

With a sudden beat of her wings, she dove toward Xi Xi, the raging dark red flames instantly swallowing the surrounding space.

Xi Xi's speed was astonishingly fast; one could almost only catch a glimpse of a purple afterimage as she nimbly bypassed the encirclement of flames.

Not far away, Bei Bei coordinated, once again swiping out a golden lightning dragon claw!

The dragon claw tore through the sky, the golden lightning raging violently, accompanied by a heart-stopping whistling sound.

Ma Xiaotao's flaming wings folded toward the front, blocking Bei Bei's strike.

However, Bei Bei's golden lightning contained the purifying power of light, capable of dissolving the enemy's soul power. Ma Xiaotao only felt that the wings closing in front of her partially vanished the moment the attack landed.

Ma Xiaotao was startled, her dark red flame wings spreading wide once more as the soul rings on her body flashed in succession, charging toward Bei Bei and Gongyang Mo.

If not for the support of Gongyang Mo, Bei Bei, with only two rings, would never have been able to unleash such power.

Seeing Ma Xiaotao flying toward them, Gongyang Mo was instantly thrown into a panic; he certainly did not want to be beaten to a pulp by Ma Xiaotao.

Bei Bei, meanwhile, shouted to Xi Xi not far away, "Xi Xi, let's attack together!"
