"Ah!"
A bloodcurdling scream rang out!
But Wang Sheng had no intention of letting him go. His Blazing Blade Martial Soul surged with a large amount of blood flames once more.
The First Soul Ring lit up.
"Blood Flame Impact!"
"Stop!"
The leader clearly could not just stand by and watch the Black-Faced Man die at Wang Sheng's hands.
As he shouted, he activated his Lone Wolf Martial Soul. Three Soul Rings appeared around him—two hundred-year rings and one thousand-year ring, the standard configuration for a three-ring Soul Elder.
His third, thousand-year Soul Ring flashed, and his soul skill activated instantly!
"Blood Wolf Claw!"
A massive wolf claw appeared over the leader's hand, and he suddenly drove off with both legs.
Bang!
He charged straight at Wang Sheng, moving even faster than Wang Sheng himself.
The ground was stomped into a huge pit, showing just how terrifying his explosive power was.
"Heh."
Wang Sheng sneered.
The man was faster than him, but the distance between them was too great.
When he came within five meters of Wang Sheng, Wang Sheng sidestepped and had already circled behind the Black-Faced Man, who was still screaming amid the flames.
He swung the Blazing Blade in his hand without hesitation, striking the Black-Faced Man engulfed in fire.
"Rumble..."
The Black-Faced Man was blasted away and sent flying straight toward the pursuing leader.
"Not good!"
At that moment, he was launching his strongest attack!
If he was hit, he would be fine, but the Black-Faced Man would likely have no chance of surviving.
After all, the Black-Faced Man had already taken two hits from Wang Sheng. Even if he was not dead, he could not be in good shape.
Bang...
With no other choice, the leader stomped both feet hard into the ground, forcibly stopping his attack.
The immense impact also took a heavy toll on his body! He could neither attack nor dodge effectively right away, so he could only stretch out his arms and prepare to catch the Black-Faced Man flying toward him.
"Good opportunity!"
How could Wang Sheng possibly let such a huge opening slip by?
He pushed the Shaolin Movement Technique to its limit, rapidly catching up from behind and striking the Black-Faced Man's back with all his might.
Bang...
However, it was not the Black-Faced Man who was hit, but the leader behind him, separated by the Black-Faced Man.
A cold smile appeared on Wang Sheng's face. This move was Strike Across the Mountain! Only those with a profound understanding of internal energy could possibly use it.
But for Wang Sheng, who had been a martial arts grandmaster in his previous life, it was nothing special.
"Hmph!"
Even in his previous life, this move had been extremely difficult to detect, much less for a three-ring Soul Master in this world. The leader was struck squarely.
Still, beast martial soul masters truly had stronger bodies than ordinary soul masters. The leader forcibly endured the Strike Across the Mountain, letting out only a muffled groan.
However, it also caused his strength to falter.
The next moment, the Black-Faced Man slammed fiercely into the leader.
After forcibly stopping his attack and taking one of Wang Sheng's blows head-on, how could he have any strength left to catch him?
Bang!
He was knocked straight to the ground, and the two rolled into a tangled heap.
"Blood Flame Impact!"
Wang Sheng unleashed another full-powered strike! Using the Blazing Blade in his hand as the point of impact, he rushed toward the two at high speed.
"Not good!"
The leader's expression changed drastically when he saw Wang Sheng attacking!
At this point, he understood that they had underestimated Wang Sheng too much, which was why they had suffered such heavy losses in succession!
Wang Sheng drew closer and closer, while he was still pinned to the ground by the Black-Faced Man, completely unable to dodge! Under the threat of death, his heart hardened!
"I'm sorry, brother!"
Whoosh!
Wang Sheng's Blazing Blade stabbed viciously toward him.
But the leader directly shoved the Black-Faced Man forward, using him as a shield in front of himself.
The Black-Faced Man had already been severely injured. Under this blow, he was pierced through and died beyond any doubt.
Splurt...
The leader, who had hidden beneath him and used him as a shield, thinking he had avoided the attack, suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
An intense pain came from his chest. Following the Blazing Blade that had pierced through the Black-Faced Man, he looked down!
He discovered that the tip of the blade had also stabbed into his chest, the source of the excruciating pain.
"Still couldn't avoid it?"
The leader's face was filled with despair, because the flames on the blade had nearly roasted his entire chest.
"No. Even if I die, I have to drag someone down with me!"
With his last breath, the leader launched a counterattack.
Three Soul Rings appeared once again, and the third Soul Ring lit up again.
"Blood Wolf Claw!"
The Blood Wolf Claw likewise pierced through the Black-Faced Man between them and clawed directly at Wang Sheng.
"Not good!"
Wang Sheng had become alert the moment the Soul Rings appeared, but he discovered that the other party had tightly gripped the Blazing Blade in his hand.
So, he instantly dismissed the Blazing Blade Martial Soul!
But the attack was already upon him. At such close range, dodging was simply impossible.
"Vajra Palm!"
With no other choice, Wang Sheng could only meet it head-on.
Bang...!
Wang Sheng was sent flying, but he flipped through the air and landed steadily on the ground.
However, one of his arms hung limply at his side, and a streak of blood ran from the corner of his mouth.
Although he had also suffered considerable injuries from that strike.
"Cough, cough... As expected, each additional ring brought a massive gap in Soul Power. If I hadn't had my previous life's combat experience and martial arts, I would probably already be a corpse!"
"But who exactly were these two?"
"Why did they want to kill me?"
"Could it have been Ji Changying, that ruthless old hag?"
"No, they were only two three-ring Soul Elders. If Ji Changying made a move, she would never use such a paltry force!"
"And they were planning to capture Meier! Ji Changying had no need to do that. With her temperament, wouldn't she just kill us both? Why make things so troublesome?"
"Could Meier have been their real target, with killing me merely a bonus?"
"That seemed to be the only reasonable explanation, but who wanted to capture Meier?"
In the shadows, someone wearing an academy uniform stared blankly at the outcome of his plan.
After recovering his senses, shock appeared on his face. "Damn it, I never expected that guy to be a two-ring Soul Grandmaster. Even more unbelievable, he used the strength of a two-ring Soul Grandmaster to kill two three-ring Soul Elders. Is he even a fucking Soul Grandmaster?"
"No, no. As long as he lives, not only will I fail to get her, but even my position in the academy may be threatened!"
"So, he must die!"
