"You should be eliminated." A ferocious glint appeared in Yan Fei's eyes.
But at that moment, Tie Li turned to look at him, blue-white lightning filling his eyes.
Xiya's First Soul Skill could confuse the eyes. When her First Soul Skill landed on him, the power of lightning within his body surged forth uncontrollably and gathered in his eyes.
"You..."
Yan Fei froze for a moment, sensing that something was wrong. Yet he did not stop his attack. No matter how strong you are, you're still a Two-Ring Soul Grandmaster like me. Could you really eliminate me directly?
Yan Fei did not believe Tie Li could do that.
First Soul Skill, Thunder Hammer!
The Forging Hammer transformed into a Thunder Hammer, and a layer of Thunder Armor crawled up the hammer's handle and covered Tie Li's right arm.
Lightning surged as Tie Li stared at Yan Fei, who was about to strike, concentrating all his strength into his right arm.
Boom!
Seizing the right moment, the Thunder Hammer smashed fiercely toward Yan Fei's wings. The blade-like wings collided with the Thunder Hammer, producing the distinctive clang of metal striking metal.
Yan Fei felt an immense force tearing apart his wings, while violent lightning ravaged them without restraint.
Bang!
With his wings broken, Yan Fei was sent flying like a deflated balloon. He rolled across the ground before finally stopping at the edge of the Soul Fighting Platform. He had almost been eliminated.
He struggled to rise from the ground, but his body had suffered severe damage, leaving him unable to even stand steadily.
Bang!
A thunderous sound erupted from the Soul Fighting Platform. Tie Li launched himself forward with power gathered in his knees and attacked the Giant Fang Team's Control Soul Master.
"I'll do it!"
The Giant Fang Team's Defense Soul Master immediately stepped in front of Xiya, raising the shield in his hand before him as he unleashed his First Soul Skill and Second Soul Skill at the same time.
The shield grew to over three meters tall. A flash of white light passed over its surface, and an energy barrier emerged behind it, enveloping Xiya and the Defense Soul Master.
Rumble!
The Thunder Hammer struck the shield with a booming crash. The Defense Soul Master's breath caught, and panic appeared in his eyes. He could feel the force behind Tie Li's hammer.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
The hammer struck the shield again and again, each collision so powerful that it made their scalps tingle.
Blood appeared at the corner of the Defense Soul Master's mouth. Unable to endure any longer, he spat out a mouthful of clotted blood. Clearly, taking Tie Li's attacks head-on had inflicted serious injuries on him.
Xiya felt somewhat afraid, but she knew even better that she could not simply sit and wait for defeat.
The second soul ring on her body lit up.
Second Soul Skill, Ghost Mirror Image!
Tie Li's reflection appeared on the surface of the Ghost Mirror. The next second, a phantom that resembled Tie Li by eighty percent stepped out of the mirror.
At that very instant, Xiya's face turned deathly pale. More than ninety percent of her Soul Power had been drained away.
The stronger the mirrored Soul Master, the greater the Soul Power consumption. Xiya had never before used up more than ninety percent of her Soul Power.
Even when she had encountered a Three-Ring Soul Elder before, it had consumed no more than seventy percent of her Soul Power.
He... Xiya stared at Tie Li in utter disbelief.
The moment Tie Li's mirror image appeared, everyone immediately felt that something was wrong.
But upon further thought, the mirror image possessed only fifty percent of the original's combat strength. It was not impossible to defeat.
Moreover, the mirror image had to face the original first!
Yang Xiaoyun had just been eliminated by Snake Fang while protecting Dolangbu. A vicious wound had been left on his abdomen by Snake Fang Dagger's First Soul Skill, Dark Assault.
Xiya's First Soul Skill had prevented Bai Jiao and Daisi from eliminating the Giant Fang Team's two Agility Attack Soul Masters. Now, working together with Snake Fang, they were causing considerable trouble for Dolangbu and the others.
Snake Fang glanced toward his own team. There was only one opponent there, and Xiya had even used her Second Soul Skill. They would definitely be able to hold on.
As long as he dealt with the opposing Control Soul Master, everything would become much easier.
Boom!
Another thunderous blast rang out, and Snake Fang immediately felt something was wrong. He could not help turning to look behind him.
The Soul Master mirror image summoned by Xiya had actually been smashed into fragments with a single hammer blow. The Defense Soul Master responsible for protecting her had been unable to withstand Tie Li's attacks and collapsed weakly to the ground, losing his fighting ability.
A Second Soul Skill under the effect of the First Soul Skill was a purely single-target attack, and its power was undoubtedly terrifying. Unless it encountered a Soul Master like Huyan Hao with a top-tier defensive Martial Soul, almost no Soul Master of the same level could withstand it.
Even his own mirror image had been reduced to ashes beneath Thunder Strike.
At that moment, only the Control Soul Master, whose Soul Power was nearly exhausted, and an Auxiliary Soul Master remained before Tie Li.
Just as Snake Fang was preparing for one final desperate struggle, he suddenly discovered that the enhancement effect on his body had vanished.
His four teammates had already been thrown off the Soul Fighting Platform by Tie Li.
Yet he had only eliminated one of the opposing Agility Attack Soul Masters.
Tie Li had deliberately smashed his hammer into the ground to create noise and disrupt them.
With their teammates thrown off the Soul Fighting Platform, the three of them had long since lost their will to fight. Every time Tie Li deliberately struck the ground, it was psychological torture for them.
The outcome of this soul fight had already been decided. After spending a little more time, Tie Li eliminated Snake Fang and the other two as well.
In the VIP room, Supervisor Fu saw his team win and smiled faintly.
"A very good Soul Master. Although he wears a mask, it's obvious that he's very young."
"Yes, he is only eleven this year."
The private room fell silent for three seconds before the distinguished man spoke.
"Very good. He is qualified for us to nurture."
In contrast, another VIP room was filled with curses.
"Trash! Every single one of you is trash!"
After the referee announced the result of the soul fight, Tie Li and the others returned to the lounge.
"I'll take you to the medical room for some basic treatment first," Dolangbu said.
He had only expended a great deal of Soul Power and was not injured, but Bai Jiao and the others were in far worse condition. Zong Hao in particular had taken Snake Fang's attacks head-on in order to protect Dolangbu.
After they left, only Tie Li and Cai Xin remained in the lounge.
Cai Xin wanted to take the opportunity to say a few more words to Tie Li, but she saw him pack up his things and leave the lounge.
After leaving the Great Soul Arena, he returned directly to his dormitory.
It was not that Tie Li was antisocial. He simply felt that he had little in common with them.
Simply put, they were not the same kind of people.
Supervisor Fu's requirement for battles was to participate in a team soul fight once every three days, with him arranging the opponents. The rest of their time was theirs to use freely.
There were dedicated training facilities in the arena. Aside from meditating to cultivate, they could also train their bodies during their usual free time.
A Soul Master had to possess excellent physical fitness.
Having just finished a team soul fight, Tie Li had three days of free time, all of which he spent cultivating and training. Only on the afternoon of the fourth day would he set aside time to discuss tactics.
Tie Li spent the next half year like this.
Over the half year, the team participated in nearly fifty team soul fights and maintained a win rate of roughly eighty percent.
Rock Team had become a level-twenty Copper Soul Fighting Team and had gained quite a reputation in the Great Soul Arena. But what drew the most attention was Tie Li's stunning performance whenever he took the field, using overwhelming strength to break through the opponent's defenses head-on.
Quite a few factions tried to recruit Tie Li in private, but he rejected every one of them.
