Fourth Spirit Ability Stuns the Audience

In their line of sight, the spirit rings that had been flickering with light suddenly turned a ghostly gray!

There was not a single ripple of energy fluctuation.

It was as if all their energy had been forcibly drained by an incredibly domineering power!

What the hell was this?

Did such a spirit skill even exist in this world?

As their spirit rings turned deathly gray, Lei Bao's Lightning Gale Strike and Li Gang's Mad Wolf Sky-Rending Claw, both already halfway executed, instantly lost their effects when they were less than three meters away from Su Ming!

"What?! My spirit skill vanished! This is impossible!!" Lei Bao let out a wild roar.

"I can't move! My spirit skill has been locked down too! What the hell is this thing?!" Li Gang was equally terrified!

It was not over yet.

With the disappearance of his spirit skill, his once unstoppable charge instantly lost its core defense, leaving him completely exposed before Su Ming.

In a life-or-death battle between Spirit Kings, what did three seconds without spirit skills mean?

It meant certain death.

Su Ming did not hesitate at all.

The third spirit ring beneath his feet flared with blinding light.

"Third Spirit Skill, Evil Phoenix God-Slaying Slash!"

Whoosh!

A two-meter-long pitch-black beam of light shot from his hand.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!

There was no suspense, nor were there any sparks from a collision.

Without the protection of spirit skills, the final resistance Lei Bao and Li Gang offered with their mere physical strength was as fragile as paper.

The light slash instantly shredded their protective Soul Power.

Boom!

Following that, the Soul Power exploded.

"Ahhh!!"

Two shrill, miserable screams rang out.

Immediately after!

Thud! Thud!

Accompanied by two heavy muffled sounds, the two level-51 Spirit Kings slammed heavily against the edge of the arena before sliding to the ground like dead dogs.

Their eyes rolled back, and they fell completely unconscious.

From the start of the match to Lei Bao and Li Gang's charge, and then to the bloom of Su Ming's fourth spirit skill, the nullification of their skills, and Su Ming's instant kill!

The entire process had not even lasted three seconds.

Even Hu Liena, standing behind Su Ming, had not yet had the chance to make a move before the battle was already over.

One strike, a double kill against higher-level opponents!

"This... this..."

The referee in the center of the arena was so shocked he turned into a statue!

In the stands, the spectators and gamblers who had come to watch the spectacle felt as if they had been struck in the head by an invisible hammer.

Everyone's mouths hung open, yet they could not make a single sound!

Dead silence, a silence as deep as the grave.

A forty-level Soul Ancestor brat had instantly killed two veteran level-51 Spirit Kings with a single strike?

This simply defied the logic of combat in the spirit master world!

Standing behind Su Ming, Hu Liena looked at the rhythmic black ten-thousand-year spirit ring beneath his feet, her mind buzzing.

Forcibly sealing an opponent's first four spirit rings and causing their skills to fail and vanish...

Hu Liena felt her throat go dry.

The junior brother who was several years younger than her now possessed methods so bizarre and terrifying that even she felt a chill run through her entire body.

She asked herself, if she were to face Su Ming, would she be his match?

Over the next few days, the Eighth Sub-Arena of the Martial Soul City Great Soul Arena completely turned into a nightmare for veteran Spirit Kings in their fifties.

Su Ming and Hu Liena's "Su-Na Duo" appeared at the registration window for the duo matches punctually every day.

Because they had cleanly and decisively killed the Thunder-Fierce Duo in their first match, the Su-Na Duo's combat power was rated extremely high. Consequently, in the following days, every opponent they were matched against was, without exception, a veteran duo with Soul Power above level 55 and an incredibly ferocious fighting style.

There were brothers who excelled in joint defense and even possessed Martial Soul Fusion Skills.

There were troublesome teams that fought with insidious methods, relying on a combination of lethal poison control and fierce assaults to wear countless opponents to death.

However, in the face of Su Ming's fourth soul skill, which could be described as cheating, the soul skills and coordination these Soul Kings had painstakingly cultivated for years all became meaningless jokes.

In the final match, they encountered a pair of level 59 twin assault-type Soul Kings.

The opponents attempted to force a suppression from the start by relying on their advantage in Soul Power.

However, as the pitch-black ten-thousand-year fourth soul ring beneath Su Ming's feet lit up, a sharp, piercing phoenix cry instantly tore through the void.

The Evil Phoenix's resentful eyes snapped open, and black energy ripples swept across the entire arena.

In that instant, the five soul rings beneath the two Soul Kings' feet turned deathly gray, and the soul skills they were gathering vanished in a flash, like a flame being snuffed out.

What followed was the end of the battle.

"The tenth match, the Su-Na Duo wins! Achieving a ten-game winning streak in the duo tournament while fighting above their level!"

The referee's trembling voice announced the result of the match!

Walking out of the Great Soul Arena, Hu Liena looked at the twelve-year-old boy in black beside her. Her lips moved slightly, and deep within her heart, a sense of frustration and shock were thoroughly intertwined.

She finally had to admit that she, a senior sister who had just advanced to five rings, had been completely left in the dust in terms of combat power by this monster of a junior brother.

With both ten-game winning streak requirements completed, the two of them received an unquestionable special-grade evaluation for their academy assessment.

The next day.

Martial Soul Hall Academy.

The steady, crisp sound of high heels echoed as Liu Ru walked into the classroom.

She scanned the four people below and, without any superfluous words, said, "Today, I am announcing one thing to everyone: the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament is about to officially begin."

Upon hearing the words "Elite Tournament," the eyes of Xie Yue, Yan, and Hu Liena all narrowed slightly, with the exception of Su Ming.

This was the most prestigious and highest-standard soul master event in the entire Douluo Continent.

Top geniuses from over a hundred advanced academies across the two great empires would gather in one place.

As the perennial seeded team, the Martial Soul Hall team represented the supreme majesty of the entire Martial Soul Hall in suppressing the two great empires.

Liu Ru pressed her hands onto the desk, her gaze as sharp as a blade: "Three days from now, the Academy Martial Arts Arena will host the internal practical quota determination match."

"Everyone will engage in unrestricted practical combat. Whoever wins enters the team. Do you understand?"

"Understood!" everyone replied sharply in unison.

"Very well. Three days from now, This Seat will be waiting for you at the Martial Arts Arena." Liu Ru waved her hand and then left the classroom.

The students dispersed, and the group followed suit.

Yan stared at Su Ming's retreating figure, a cold arc curling at the corner of his mouth.

"You want to give him a taste of his own medicine during the internal matches?" Xie Yue said calmly beside him; he seemed to have seen through Yan's thoughts.

Yan sneered, "Why not? This is a fair and square opportunity."

Xie Yue said, "Don't say I didn't warn you. You've been in seclusion for the past few days trying to break through to level 44, but this guy Su Ming has been stealing the spotlight at the Great Soul Arena. Even level 59 Soul Kings were no match for them."

"What?" Yan's face was instantly filled with shock, "Even level 59s were no match for him?"
