This Is Our Two's Blood-Boiling Combo!

A figure descended from the sky with eyes wide in fury. Tang Wulin had been meditating in a tree when he suddenly sensed movement nearby; opening his eyes, he saw Lin Chen, Gu Yuena, and Xie Xie fleeing toward him.

However, the situation seemed somewhat off.

Lin Chen caught a glimpse of Tang Wulin landing and immediately spoke up: "Wulin, go help Xie Xie first. Na'er and I will handle this Crystal Bear."

Tang Wulin nodded in response: "Understood!" He kicked off the ground and sprinted in Xie Xie's direction.

Under Xie Xie's stunned gaze, he saw Tang Wulin's right hand covered in a layer of golden dragon scales, his five fingers curled into claws, while his left hand held a Thousand-Refined Heavy Silver Hammer raised high.

Almost the instant the Golden Dragon Claw appeared, the Unicorn Dragon's body stiffened, its massive frame coming to a jarring, forced halt.

Tang Wulin's left hand brought the heavy silver hammer crashing down onto the Unicorn Dragon's forehead. A dull thud of impact exploded outward, followed immediately by the Golden Dragon Claw slamming into its head, the tips of the claws piercing deep into the beast's skull.

The Unicorn Dragon's massive body instantly lost its support; without even a single cry, it collapsed onto the ground with a loud thud.

The golden halo radiating from its body was sucked into the belly of the Golden Little Snake on Tang Wulin's shoulder, as if it were slurping up noodles.

Tang Wulin looked at Xie Xie's dazed expression and couldn't help but twitch his lips. I'll explain when we get out; first, I need to help Brother Lin Chen and the others.

Xie Xie snapped out of his shock with a jolt. Looking at the slowly dissipating Unicorn Dragon, he swallowed hard and quickly replied: "Right, let's hurry over and help!"

The two no longer delayed, sprinting one after the other toward the other side of the battlefield.

At this moment, Lin Chen and Gu Yuena were locked in a fierce struggle with the thousand-year Crystal Bear. The lightning Lin Chen released only managed to paralyze it slightly, and the ice shards Gu Yuena unleashed left nothing but a few white marks on its surface.

This made Lin Chen anxious: "Damn it, is this Crystal Bear buffed? It didn't seem this ridiculous in the original story, did it?"

"Brother Lin Chen, Gu Yuena, we're here to support you!" Tang Wulin shouted from afar. His right arm's Golden Dragon Claw lit up once more, his soul power surging and ready to strike.

Xie Xie followed closely behind.

Hearing their arrival, Lin Chen immediately set the strategy: "Xie Xie, Na'er, you two are responsible for distracting and pinning it down! Wulin, you and I will lead the frontal assault; let's find this bastard's weak spot."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuena locked her cold, clear eyes onto the Crystal Bear ahead, several fireballs circling her. Xie Xie used his own speed to harass the beast constantly.

The berserk Crystal Bear was harassed repeatedly, its roars growing increasingly ferocious. It swung its heavy paws wildly, attempting to scatter the air around them and suffocate them to death.

Cyan lightning crackled around Lin Chen's body, his speed surging as the lightning wrapped around his limbs. He nimbly dodged the sweeping bear paws while keeping a sharp eye on the Crystal Bear's less-defended areas.

One person used lightning to force paralysis, while the other used the Golden Dragon Claw to constantly search for vital points.

Lin Chen's gaze suddenly sharpened, locking onto the uneven crystalline gap where the Crystal Bear's neck met its skull. The timing was perfect, and he shouted: "Wulin! Now!"

The moment the words left his lips, cyan light erupted from Lin Chen's left arm. Scales sprouted to cover his limb, and a sharp, fierce Azure Dragon Claw took form. Violent cyan lightning crackled around the claw blades, striking with an irresistible, crushing force.

Tang Wulin, standing beside him, was just as quick. His dragon claw tore through the air, following right behind Lin Chen to slam into the Crystal Bear's head.

Lin Chen declared: "This is our blood-pumping combo move!"

The cyan dragon claw, wreathed in lightning, and the golden dragon claw, imbued with a shattering effect, struck the Crystal Bear's head simultaneously.

With a thunderous explosion, the hard crystalline shell shattered into pieces. Struck hard, the Crystal Bear let out a shrill, furious roar. Its massive body trembled violently, and its head hung down uncontrollably.

Lin Chen immediately signaled: "Na'er, Xie Xie, Tang Wulin, fall back! Let me deliver the finishing blow to this bastard." (Step back, I'm about to show off!)

Gu Yuena and the others didn't hesitate for a second, stepping backward. Now, only the battered and bruised Crystal Bear remained, struggling frantically, its scarlet eyes locked onto Lin Chen.

It exhausted its remaining strength to lift its heavy paw, attempting a final, desperate counterattack to severely injure its enemy.

Lin Chen's cyan lightning surged and expanded violently. In the next instant, he focused his mind and gave a soft shout: "Little Vine, come out and get to work."

Lin Chen's eyes narrowed, his soul power pouring out without reservation: Third Soul Skill, Myriad Thunder Cangming!

The overwhelming lightning, like a pack of starving wolves, poured frantically into the Crystal Bear's shattered skull. The beast let out a heart-wrenching wail, its massive body convulsing and trembling wildly.

It crashed heavily into the scorched earth, finally losing the strength to struggle.

Long Hengxu, watching from the sidelines, kept his eyes fixed on the Thunder Hell Vine slowly dissipating beside Lin Chen, speaking in disbelief: "This... isn't this the Thunder Hell Vine? How could such an Indomitable Soul Spirit become Lin Chen's soul spirit?"

After everyone finished absorbing the spirit power, they exited the Spirit Ascension Platform simultaneously. Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi, who had been eliminated earlier, were also watching from the outside.

Wu Changkong looked at Lin Chen and said calmly: "Lin Chen, come with me for a moment."

After sealing off the surrounding space with his soul power, Wu Changkong stared intently at Lin Chen and asked directly: "Lin Chen, tell me, are you originally from Shrek Academy?"

As his words fell, the air descended into a deathly silence. Wu Changkong was usually cold and reticent, but his eyes were now filled with scrutiny.

Lin Chen replied: "Teacher Wu, I hope you can keep this a secret for me."

Wu Changkong nodded without speaking.

Lin Chen continued: "I am indeed from Shrek Academy, but I am not a student there." He paused. "My parents are the current Pavilion Master of the Sea God Pavilion and the Holy Spirit Douluo."

Wu Changkong's pupils constricted upon hearing this, and his gaze dimmed: "Very well, I promise you. But I have something I want to ask you."

Lin Chen shook his head: "You want to ask about your master, right?"

"Uncle Zhuo Shi has always been talking about you; he never once blamed you..."

After a long, dead silence, he finally spoke, his usually cold and steady voice now thick with hoarseness: "Master... is he... how has he been all these years?"

Lin Chen looked at the unconcealable loneliness and concern in his eyes and spoke softly: "Uncle Zhuo Shi has always been well. He never blamed you for your decision to leave Shrek in anger back then. On the contrary, he often mentions you to the elders in the Pavilion, always worrying about your safety and hoping that one day you'll be willing to go back."

Having come to Eastsea Academy alone to teach, he had deliberately avoided everything related to Shrek, afraid to inquire about news of his sect, all while carrying a heavy burden of guilt and unease deep in his heart.

Now, suddenly learning that his master had never blamed him, the knot he had carried for years loosened, and a wave of bitterness flooded his chest.

Wu Changkong lowered his eyes to the ground, complex emotions churning within them. His hoarse voice was barely a whisper: "So... it was me who had been overthinking it all along."
