Hell White Tiger? I'm Going to Show Off!

(Cui Yajie beautiful image)

What was even more marvelous was that Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao also shared this perception.

The two girls felt a jolt in their hearts simultaneously; they could clearly "see" the position, speed, and even the paths through which Soul Power surged within the meridians of every person on the opposing side.

This sense of clarity and total control over the battlefield was simply terrifying.

This was the first soul skill Lin Ye had spoken of before the match!

Lin Ye did not waste any time: "Xiao Xiao, left side, Cauldron Shock!"

Xiao Xiao was startled. How did Lin Ye know about her special way of stacking dual soul skills?

But she did not hesitate in the slightest.

Three large cauldrons erupted with dark light, instantly crashing toward the center to collide with one another.

The two soul rings Xiao Xiao had attached to the Three-Life Soul-Suppressing Cauldron also lit up at the same time.

Just as the cauldrons collided, a black shadow suddenly flashed on the left!

Zhu Lu's figure flickered as her speed erupted abruptly.

Her target was none other than Xiao Xiao—she intended to use her speed to instantly take out the opponent's control-type soul master!

However, what she slammed into was a massive cauldron that had been prepared for a long time.

"Heavy Artifact of the Nation, Cauldron Shock!"

The three cauldrons merged into one, emitting a violent roar.

A giant cauldron, twice the size of any of the previous ones, appeared in mid-air.

Strange runes faintly emerged upon the giant cauldron, and an indescribable majesty burst forth along with that deafening sound.

No matter how fast Zhu Lu was, she could not outpace the instructions Lin Ye had issued in advance.

Her body slammed heavily against the giant cauldron, and she felt as if she had been glued to it.

Rings of black light continuously assaulted her body; she felt the Soul Power within her evaporating at an alarming rate, and her limbs and bones were suppressed firmly by the shockwaves.

Her strength was not great to begin with, and once stuck to the giant cauldron, she found herself unable to break free.

Xiao Xiao gritted her teeth, fine beads of sweat already seeping from her forehead, but her gaze was firmer than ever before.

It seemed that as long as Lin Ye was there, they could not possibly lose.

Meanwhile, Lin Ye had already met Dai Huabin head-on!

Dai Huabin now had only one choice—to quickly take down Lin Ye and then go to save Zhu Lu.

He had absolute confidence in his own strength.

The strongest of the opposing team was only that Wang Dong; Cui Yajie would hold her off, and with his own formidable power, he could resolve this obstacle in an instant.

Dai Huabin charged forward with an extremely violent impact, his tiger claws tearing through the air, aimed straight at Lin Ye's face.

A flash of lotus light appeared beneath Lin Ye's feet, and his figure drifted to the side as if lifted by the wind, easily dodging the strike that was meant to be a sure hit.

"Second soul skill, Lotus Wind Shadow Step."

Dai Huabin's pupils constricted. A series of follow-up attacks ensued, but Lin Ye dodged every single one by a hair's breadth.

His figure drifted unpredictably within the lotus wind, his afterimages like lotus petals falling and blooming, layered and overlapping, making him extremely difficult to lock onto.

Not only that, the speed boost from Lotus Wind Shadow Step also benefited Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao!

Wang Dong'er felt the wind beneath her feet, her speed surging.

The Cui Yajie on the other side was no match for her at all; before she could even release a soul skill, she was struck solidly by a whip kick from Wang Dong'er, sent flying, and rolled several times on the ground before coming to a stop.

"Lin Ye, this soul skill of yours is simply too strong!" Wang Dong'er's eyes shone with excitement. "It can anticipate the enemy's moves and boost speed; how is anyone else supposed to fight?"

On the other side, Dai Huabin grew increasingly irritable as the fight dragged on.

Even though his cultivation was far higher than his opponent's, he couldn't even touch the hem of Lin Ye's clothes.

Seeing that Zhu Lu was still stuck to the cauldron and unable to move, he made a prompt decision: instead of advancing, he retreated, sprinting toward Zhu Lu's direction.

The corners of Lin Ye's mouth curled up slightly: "Want to perform a martial soul fusion? Then I shall make you completely convinced of your defeat."

"Xiao Xiao, retract the cauldron!"

Xiao Xiao retracted the Three-Life Soul-Suppressing Cauldron at his command, the black cauldron turning into a stream of light and merging into her body.

Her Soul Power consumption was significant, and the stray hair on her forehead was plastered to her cheeks by sweat, but her eyes remained bright and sparkling.

The very next moment after she retracted the cauldron—

A thunderous tiger roar erupted from Dai Huabin's mouth!

Accompanied by the roar, his entire body expanded once more, white fur mixed with black tiger stripes surging wildly from within him, and his physique grew significantly larger.

Zhu Lu bit her lip lightly, her entire body covered in a faint black light, her figure flickering like a phantom as she opened her arms and lunged toward Dai Huabin.

The two bodies vanished the moment they merged.

Left in the center of the Assessment Area was nothing but a massive white tiger.

It was over eight meters long and two meters tall, its entire body radiating a translucent luster, covered in white fur with black stripes and possessing dual purple pupils.

It stared coldly at Lin Ye and his two companions, the monstrous ferocity it exuded causing the students watching from the sidelines to hold their breath involuntarily.

Xiao Xiao's expression shifted slightly: "Lin Ye, this is bad, it's their Martial Soul Fusion Skill!"

Among the teachers and students watching, not a single person believed that Lin Ye and his team could still win.

The appearance of a Martial Soul Fusion Skill during the Freshman Assessment was, in itself, an almost unsolvable situation.

Even if a four-ring Soul Ancestor were to show up, they would have to weigh their own strength carefully before facing this Hell White Tiger.

The giant white tiger crouched slightly, and the next instant, it surged forward, leaving a transparent ripple in its wake as it lunged toward the trio at a terrifying speed!

"Lin Ye, what do we do?" Wang Dong'er instinctively stepped forward, shielding Lin Ye.

Lin Ye reached out and pulled her behind him, his tone calm: "Both of you, step back."

He took a deep breath, his gaze fixed on the giant beast charging toward him.

Time to show off.

Although Lin Ye did not have much Soul Power left in his body, he still had one trump card that required very little energy to use.

The Hell White Tiger leaped, carrying with it a monstrous momentum. As its massive tiger claws swiped down, the gale it stirred up whipped the dust from the ground into a layer that stung the cheeks of those nearby.

The terrifying pressure felt like a small mountain descending from the sky; for an average freshman, this aura alone would be enough to make their legs go weak and leave them unable to move.

On the sidelines, the referee teacher had already moved.

His body leaned slightly forward, his Soul Power circulating rapidly within him, ready to intervene at any moment to prevent this strike from threatening Lin Ye's life.

The power of a Martial Soul Fusion Skill was no laughing matter; in a confrontation of this level, if even the slightest error occurred, the consequences would be unimaginable.

But before the referee could act—

Lin Ye swung his left arm out violently!

In that instant, his entire arm turned a burning crimson, lotus petal patterns flowing across the surface of his skin. A scorching heatwave exploded outward with him at the center, causing even the air to warp and distort.

"Red Lotus Burning Heaven Strike!"

He threw his punch.

A massive, crimson lotus phantom instantly condensed and bloomed upon his fist, its nine layers of petals unfurling in sequence, each one burning with golden-red flames.

The force of the punch carried a wave of fire hot enough to melt gold and iron, exploding like a compressed sun and swallowing the lunging Hell White Tiger head-on!

BOOM—!

Fire soared into the sky.

The golden-red, scorching flames surged like a roaring fire dragon, completely engulfing the translucent giant beast.

The Hell White Tiger let out a deafening howl, its massive body trembling violently in mid-air as its black tiger stripes shattered inch by inch, like paper being consumed by fire.

The referee teacher's movement, halfway through his dash, came to an abrupt halt, his pupils shrinking to pinpricks.
