Fierce Battle!

As one of the only two members in the team possessing a Martial Soul True Body, Han Ruoruo followed closely behind:

"Gold-Shaking True Body!"

As Han Ruoruo's seventh soul ring lit up, her body was instantly enveloped in a layer of interwoven gold and silver flowing light. Then, her form began to dissolve in a bizarre fashion, eventually transforming into a sky full of golden ropes—the very essence of the Gold-Shaking Rope.

The others activated their respective Martial Souls, and a pure white lotus flower appeared in Hua Yao's hand.

"A pool of clear waves births the lotus, untainted by the dust of the world, the clear lotus appears!"

With a delicate shout from Hua Yao, her fifth soul ring instantly ignited:

"Fifth Soul Skill—Green Leaf Floating Boat!"

Large patches of lotus flowers manifested beneath the group's feet, not only allowing the Spirit Masters to hover slightly in mid-air but also serving as a one-time defensive barrier.

Come to think of it, Hua Yao's combat style was similar to the two brothers with the Mars Martial Soul from the Blazing Fire Academy ten thousand years ago; she could not only buff her allies but also control the enemy's movements to a certain extent.

She was an auxiliary control-type Spirit Master.

Mu Guiyun hovered on the periphery, flapping his metallic six wings; in a battle of this scale, he was currently unable to intervene.

Looking up at the full moon hanging high in the sky, a sudden inspiration struck Mu Guiyun.

As a common spirit beast in the Star Dou Great Forest, the Moon-Eroding Wolf had a fatal weakness: its strength was overly reliant on moonlight.

As long as the moon was obscured, the Moon-Eroding Wolf's strength would be reduced by at least thirty percent.

Thinking of this, Mu Guiyun immediately poured all his strength into activating the Art of Ether.

Art of Ether—Cloud Gathering!

The once-calm sky suddenly became turbulent as layers of dark clouds quietly emerged, firmly covering the moon and plunging the world into darkness.

As the moonlight vanished, the Moon-Eroding Wolf Emperor, which had been unilaterally suppressing the group below, clearly faltered, its speed slowing significantly.

It worked!

Mu Guiyun gave a crooked smile, and a Golden Dragon Scale quietly appeared in his palm.

All he had to do now was find an opportunity to ambush this beast...

"Damn it, the gap in strength is still too great!"

Zhang Lexuan coughed up a mouthful of blood; using her Martial Soul True Body twice in one day was more than even she could handle.

Turning to look at the ragged breathing of Ma Xiaotao, Zhang Lexuan said in a deep voice, "Xiaotao, find an opportunity later and take Guiyun away from here first!"

Ma Xiaotao pursed her lips, remaining silent.

"Sister Xiaotao, accelerate and charge straight at this beast—trust me!"

Just then, a familiar voice rang in Ma Xiaotao's ear. Looking over, she saw Mu Guiyun nodding firmly at her from a distance.

Years of trust meant Ma Xiaotao didn't ask any further questions; she directly lit up her second and third soul rings.

"Beast! I'm going to kill you!"

With a furious roar, Ma Xiaotao was completely enveloped in intense phoenix flames, then slammed toward the Moon-Eroding Wolf Emperor below!

Bathed-in-Fire Phoenix + Phoenix Soaring to the Heavens!

The sudden turn of events shocked everyone; how was this any different from a suicide attack?

"Xiaotao, have you lost your mind!?"

Hua Yao cursed under her breath, forced to push her Martial Soul to the limit in an attempt to bind the Moon-Eroding Wolf Emperor in place.

"Human, you seek death!"

Seeing the fireball drawing closer, the Moon-Eroding Wolf Emperor's ferocity surged. It exerted a sudden burst of strength, snapping the Gold-Shaking Rope and lotus vines wrapped around its body in one go.

It then extended its sharp claws, accompanied by a piercing whistle of wind, and swiped directly at Ma Xiaotao!

Bound by her absolute trust in Mu Guiyun, Ma Xiaotao did not dodge the attack that could have ended her life. Instead, ripples of spirit power surged from her legs.

Left and Right Leg Spirit Bone Skill—Flame Jet!

"Die, you beast!"

In the distance, Mu Guiyun's gaze was locked firmly on Ma Xiaotao, his heartstrings taut, not daring to slacken for even a second.

If he made one mistake, Ma Xiaotao would be reduced to nothing.

Now!

The moment the claws were about to touch Ma Xiaotao, Mu Guiyun's eyes narrowed, and the spirit power within him surged like a tidal wave.

Suddenly, a faint, imperceptible spatial ripple spread out where Ma Xiaotao stood. In an instant, the crimson-clad figure vanished without a trace, replaced by a naive-looking, callow youth.

Seventh Sense—Space Displacement!

This sudden development left everyone stunned, the Moon-Eroding Wolf Emperor included.

The two had swapped positions!

However, the Moon-Eroding Wolf Emperor's movements did not pause in the slightest; if anything, they became even more vicious.

"Human, since you want to die, then this Emperor shall grant your wish!"

Facing the claws inches from his face, Mu Guiyun showed not a hint of panic, even mocking, "A husky like you? You aren't even qualified!"

Before the words had even faded, the necklace around Mu Guiyun's neck erupted with a blinding golden light!

A crystalline barrier swept over Mu Guiyun's entire body in the blink of an eye, forming an unbreakable golden shield that encased him firmly within.

The Moon-Eroding Wolf Emperor's full-force strike merely caused a ripple to spread across the shield.

Trigger-type Level 7 Soul Tool—Invincible Soul Guidance Barrier!

This sight allowed everyone, whose hearts had been in their throats, to finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Damn little brat, just wait until we get back to the academy, I'll show you!"

Ma Xiaotao cursed under her breath; in that split second just now, she had felt like dying.

Three seconds later, the Soul Tool shield shattered on cue, yet a golden light suddenly flared on Mu Guiyun's right hand.

Mu Guiyun let out a cold sneer, then slammed his fist toward the Moon-Eroding Wolf Emperor's massive dog head.

"Eat this!"

Hum—!!!!!

As Mu Guiyun's attack landed, a powerful, resonant dragon roar instantly swept across the entire Star Dou Great Forest, and the dense, near-ultimate light energy completely dispelled the night!

A massive golden dragon phantom stood tall behind Mu Guiyun, and the terrifying pressure it exerted made the Moon-Eroding Wolf Emperor instinctively think of the Master of Soul Beasts!

Bad! I'm going to die!

The Moon-Eroding Wolf Emperor realized things were dire and tried to flee, but it was already too late.

BOOM!!!!

A massive collision echoed out as the Moon-Eroding Wolf Emperor's huge body was sent flying like a cannonball for dozens of meters, snapping trees in half along the way before crashing heavily into the ground, its life or death unknown.

"Phew, that was close, no harm done!"

Mu Guiyun collapsed onto the ground, letting out a heavy sigh of relief.

MVP of the match—Dragon God Douluo Mu En!

Although all of this had happened in just a few breaths, if they had been even slightly careless, Mu Guiyun and Ma Xiaotao might have been sent to meet the Last Angel God.

"Senior Sister, this Moon-Eroding Wolf Emperor also has the moon attribute; it's practically a match for your Moon Martial Soul... Ouch!"

Before Mu Guiyun could finish, a heavy blow landed on his head. As he turned back, he saw two ripe fruits heading straight for his face!

Charging with the balls?

For a moment, Mu Guiyun felt his face sink into a patch of softness, his nose catching a faint, lingering fragrance.

"You little brat, if there is a next time, I will lock you in a secret room, do you hear me?!"

Ma Xiaotao held Mu Guiyun in her arms, her tone filled with worry and resentment.

"Mmph-mmph-mmph~"

With his mouth firmly blocked, Mu Guiyun could only wave his hands helplessly.

Pop!

After using all his might, he finally managed to pull his head free.
