Noah Academy

Kaiqi led the team to one of the Great Soul Arena's sub-arenas. Standing opposite them was the Noah Academy Team.

After discussing it that morning, they decided that the members taking the field would be Youhe, Tie Li, the Lin Wen and Lin Wu brothers, and Bai Jiao.

This time, the draw resulted in a seven-versus-seven team soul fight.

"This is a team soul fight. For us, it counts as an opportunity," Kaiqi said.

In a seven-person team soul fight, the advantages of individual Soul Masters would be weakened, and teamwork would become more important.

At the referee's prompt, both teams stepped onto the Soul Fighting Platform.

When the spectators learned it was a seven-versus-seven team soul fight, their enthusiasm erupted fiercely.

Both sides observed each other. The seven members of Rock Team had information on their opponents, and upon seeing the seven who took the field, they already had a general understanding.

Three Soul Elders and four Soul Grandmasters.

The one they needed to watch most carefully was their captain, who was also one of the Soul Elders.

Zhang Bing, Level 34 Control Battle Soul Elder, Martial Soul: Ice Spider.

Li Qing'er, Level 31 Agility Attack Battle Soul Elder, Martial Soul: Nether Wolf.

Zhang Qing, Level 32 Power Attack Battle Soul Elder, Martial Soul: Mighty Ape.

The information on the three Soul Elders flashed through everyone's minds at the same time.

The other four Soul Grandmasters consisted of two Defense Soul Masters, one Auxiliary Soul Master, and one Power Attack Soul Master.

"Noah Team, Captain Zhang Bing, Level 34 Control Battle Soul Elder. Please advise." A trace of arrogance showed in Zhang Bing's eyes as he looked at Youhe, the only Soul Elder in the opposing team.

"Rock Team, Captain Dolangbu, Level 30 Control Battle Soul Grandmaster." Dolangbu showed no other emotion at being ignored.

Zhang Bing paused, not expecting the other team's captain not to be this Three-Ring Soul Elder.

Dolangbu's Soul Power Level was not bad; he simply lacked a third Soul Ring.

"Both sides prepare. The soul fight begins!"

Martial Soul Possession, weapon Martial Soul summons—the dazzling colors of Soul Rings instantly covered the entire Soul Fighting Platform.

Among the opposing team's three Soul Elders, Zhang Bing alone had the optimal configuration of two yellow and one purple. The other two had somewhat ordinary Soul Ring configurations.

Li Qing'er, who possessed the Nether Wolf Martial Soul, had three yellow Soul Rings. Zhang Qing had one white, one yellow, and one purple; in terms of Soul Ring configuration, Zhang Qing was superior to Li Qing'er.

The Control Soul Masters on both sides were the first to strike. Zhang Bing's Martial Soul was the Ice Spider, and he attempted to control the field with spider silk and ice mist.

His First Soul Ring and Second Soul Ring lit up, and a vast cloud of snowy mist immediately appeared across the Soul Fighting Platform. Fortunately, it only reached everyone's knees.

Hiss!

Tie Li and Bai Jiao, the Power Attack Soul Masters, stood at the front of the team. At that moment, they felt a pulling force beneath their feet.

Two strands of spider silk had somehow wrapped around their ankles, attempting to drag them away from the team.

Li Qing'er and Zhang Qing, who were responsible for coordinating with Zhang Bing, immediately unleashed their Soul Skills. Two yellow lights fell upon them from behind as their Auxiliary Soul Master applied enhancement skills.

The spider silk was quite tough. Tie Li failed to break free immediately, but the pulling force was insufficient. With only a little strength, they could no longer drag him.

Bai Jiao was a step slower and had already been pulled five or six meters away from the team.

Cai Xin's enhancement Soul Skills landed on them. Tie Li braced himself and tore free by force.

Li Qing'er attacked Bai Jiao first. He had been separated from his team and was the best target.

Li Qing'er's First Soul Ring and Third Soul Ring lit up as she pounced toward Bai Jiao like a starving wolf.

Bai Jiao immediately unleashed his First Soul Skill and Second Soul Skill, attempting to withstand Li Qing'er's assault.

Dolangbu's Vines were a step too slow, but fortunately Bai Jiao held off Li Qing'er's first wave of attacks. The Vines wrapped around his waist and pulled him back.

This prevented Li Qing'er and Zhang Qing from joining forces to eliminate him.

Youhe had already appeared from the other side. She intended to rely on her individual strength and try to eliminate the most troublesome Control Soul Master.

Zhang Bing's snowy mist appeared to obstruct vision and conceal the spider silk, but it was also gradually reducing the speed and perception of Tie Li's side.

It was like a slow-acting poison, poisoning them without them even realizing it.

Youhe's Martial Soul was rather special, and her perception was sharp, allowing her to notice something wrong immediately.

"Do you want to eliminate me that badly?" Zhang Bing grinned.

Two Defense Soul Masters stood in front of him, both with two yellow Soul Rings.

Both of their Martial Souls were shields. Though their Martial Souls differed, their Soul Skills had similar effects.

One activated his First Soul Ring while the other activated his Second Soul Ring. At the same time, Youhe's speed dropped, and her movements became sluggish.

"Careful, she's about to use her Third Soul Skill."

Youhe's Thousand-Year Soul Ring lit up. The purple glow made their expressions change drastically. The power of a Millennium Soul Skill far surpassed that of a Hundred-Year Soul Skill.

Whoosh!

Youhe instantly broke free from the sluggish state. A dark violet glow flowed over her body, removing negative effects and comprehensively enhancing her speed, attack power, and explosive force.

The two Defense Soul Masters released their Soul Skills again, but the sluggish effect could no longer affect Youhe.

They immediately used another Soul Skill, blocking Zhang Bing and attempting to withstand Youhe's attack.

Yet to their surprise, Youhe had somehow bypassed their shield defense and appeared on the other side.

With that, Zhang Bing was completely exposed before Youhe.

"Did you think I wouldn't have anticipated this?" There was no panic in Zhang Bing's eyes as his Thousand-Year Soul Ring lit up.

The snowy mist on the ground transformed into a spiderweb without warning. Youhe was already within the web, her feet stuck fast.

The web suddenly contracted, trapping Youhe inside.

The remaining members of Noah Team could not help but smile. Their captain had trapped the only Three-Ring Soul Elder; the remaining Soul Grandmasters were nothing to fear.

Bang!

The sound of shattering bones and crackling lightning accompanied the elimination of a Two-Ring Soul Grandmaster.

One of Noah Team's Power Attack Soul Grandmasters had tried to take the opportunity to ambush Tie Li, only to be countered by him. Combined with the knockback effect of his Second Soul Skill, Tie Li struck the man's chest armor and directly eliminated him.

"You..."

Zhang Qing flew into a rage at the sight. Under Martial Soul Possession, his body had grown to three meters tall. His massive, powerful physique was terrifying, but it also made him prone to anger.

He leaped fiercely into the air, his fists smashing down on Tie Li like two massive hammers.

Tie Li's expression did not change much. Just as Zhang Qing's fists were about to strike him, two coarse Vines wrapped around Zhang Qing's body.

The Vines coiled around him, crawling up both arms and restraining the arms that were about to strike.

They stopped less than a foot in front of Tie Li.

Tie Li's First Soul Ring and Second Soul Ring had already lit up at some unknown point.

With his First Soul Skill active, his Second Soul Skill became a pure single-target attack with extremely formidable damage.

Second Soul Skill, Thunder Strike!

Violent lightning surged along Tie Li's right arm. This terrifying aura wiped Zhang Qing's rage away completely.
