Worth It!

Zhang Lexuan took a white handkerchief from her Storage Soul Tool and wiped her hands. "What a pity, not fast enough. Next!"

Gulp, gulp.

The sound of swallowing echoed without end.

The members of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy who had yet to compete looked at Li Li and Song Wu's miserable states, and cold sweat immediately poured down their backs.

For a moment, they could not even move their feet. None of them dared step onto the arena to face Zhang Lexuan.

Zhang Lexuan's overwhelming strength shocked countless people. After all, this was the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, not some no-name academy.

For Zhang Lexuan to crush them so completely, her strength was truly terrifying.

Just as the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy was too frightened to step forward,

the referee began carrying out his duty.

The referee announced loudly, "Contestants from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, please take the stage promptly. If no one comes up within ten seconds, you will be judged to have forfeited!"

Upon hearing the referee's words, Elder Ma and Elder Zhang, the two teachers leading the team, turned alternately pale and livid.

Humiliation. This was truly humiliating. The elites of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy were too afraid of their opponent's strength to step forward. That was even more humiliating than losing!

Elder Ma and Elder Zhang were so enraged that their blood pressure soared, their faces flushing red. They immediately began calling out names. "Sun Tianyu, as the captain, you will go this time!"

"From now on, anyone who fears battle will be expelled from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy!!"

Hearing that they would be expelled, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy's contestants, despite their fear of Zhang Lexuan's strength, flushed red one after another, shouted at the top of their lungs, and strode onto the arena as if marching to their deaths to fight Zhang Lexuan.

Seeing that the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy's captain had stepped onto the stage, Zhang Lexuan went all out as well, using a Secret Art. (Both Secret Arts and Battle Skills appeared in the original work.)

Six Soul Rings lit up one by one around her slender figure. A faint Silver Light Mist rose from beneath her feet, making Zhang Lexuan's graceful body seem hazy and indistinct.

After using the Secret Art, Zhang Lexuan's strength rose to another level.

Already powerful to begin with, she became even more unstoppable after using the Secret Art.

Explosions, screams, the sound of blood being spat out, and dull thuds as bodies flew off the arena and crashed onto the floor echoed one after another.

Sun Tianyu: Σ_("∠) It hurt, it hurt so much!!

Sun Tianyu, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy's captain and a Soul Emperor, did not even last five seconds before being taken down.

That was only because Sun Tianyu had used an Invincible Shield.

Without that Life-Saving Artifact, which could block any Soul Master attack below the level of an Eight-Ring Soul Douluo for three seconds,

Sun Tianyu likely would not have been able to withstand even a single move from Zhang Lexuan with his own strength alone.

Just as Zhang Lexuan was slaughtering her opponents,

in the luxurious section at the front of the spectator stands,

Wang Chen's black eyes remained fixed on Zhang Lexuan's figure without blinking, afraid he might miss some powerful Battle Skill or Secret Art.

Whenever Zhang Lexuan used a Secret Art or Battle Skill, the mysterious damaged black book deep within Wang Chen's soul recorded it.

As Wang Chen recorded Zhang Lexuan's skills,

Zhang Lexuan entered an unstoppable mowing mode on the arena, cutting down opponents in every direction.

When the final member of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy was kicked off the arena by Zhang Lexuan,

Zhang Lexuan successfully achieved a one-against-seven sweep in the finals.

The Shrek contestants, who had coasted to victory all the way through, shouted from the resting area beneath the stage, "Senior Sister is awesome! Senior Sister is mighty and domineering!!"

"Senior Sister, I want to have your babies!"

"Hey, hey, hey, you're a girl..."

"None of your business, hmph~"

In stark contrast to Shrek Academy's joyous atmosphere, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy was steeped in gloom.

Elder Ma and Elder Zhang, the teachers leading the team, were deathly pale.

They had been swept one against seven by Shrek Academy. They had been utterly humiliated. The headmaster would definitely fly into a rage when they returned. They were finished.

The seven contestants were bruised and battered, covered in injuries, and wailed, "Wuwuwu, is that Zhang Lexuan a monster? She's way too strong!!"

"Damn it, why? We're both Soul Emperors, so how can she be this strong? I refuse to accept this!"

"..."

With the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy having been swept one against seven in the individual matches, there was no need to hold the team match.

Because the team match was worth only six points, while the individual matches were worth seven.

This Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Duel Tournament ended early.

With an invincible, crushing display, Zhang Lexuan forcefully swept seven opponents by herself and won the championship for Shrek Academy.

As the match ended, the referee shouted, "Congratulations to Shrek Academy for winning this Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Duel Tournament! Let us cheer for Shrek Academy!!"

"Shrek! Shrek!"

"Invincible! Invincible!"

"Zhang Lexuan!! Zhang Lexuan!!"

"Moon Goddess! Moon Goddess!!"

Throughout the spectator stands, hundreds of thousands of spectators wildly shouted Zhang Lexuan's name, calling her the Moon Goddess.

Seeing that the match had ended, Wang Chen immediately closed his eyes to ease their soreness.

As he closed his eyes, his consciousness sank deep into his soul.

Under Wang Chen's control, the damaged black book slowly flipped to the most recently recorded page.

Unnamed Skill One: Fuses will, Spiritual Power, and Soul Power. Can be used simultaneously with other skills.

Its power depends on the user's Soul Power, Spiritual Power, and strength of will. The stronger the Soul Power, Spiritual Power, and will, the greater this skill's power.

Prerequisite for using this skill: Spiritual Power must reach the Soul Sage realm. Otherwise, one cannot control the fusion of will, Spiritual Power, and Soul Power.

Unnamed Skill Two: Activates the power within Soul Rings, greatly increasing one's strength for a short period. The more Soul Rings one possesses and the higher their age, the greater this skill's enhancement for the user.

After the skill ends, the body enters a weakened state, and the skill cannot be used again for three days. Otherwise, there is a risk of the Soul Rings shattering.

Prerequisite for using this skill: Must possess at least one Soul Ring.

Looking at the two powerful skills recorded in the damaged black book, Wang Chen could not help revealing an excited expression, despite having lived two lives and possessing considerable self-control.

It had not been in vain for him to ignore all objections, spend so much time traveling from the Sun and Moon Empire to the Heaven Dou Empire, and watch the Soul Master Tournament.

This return was worth it!

At the Family Competition a month from now, even if his cultivation was somewhat weaker, he was confident he could win!

A mere Wang Teng—wouldn't he be at Wang Chen's mercy?
