Zhao Wuji's wealth of combat experience immediately made him raise his hand to block at his side while activating his First Soul Skill, Immovable Wisdom King Body.
A burst of golden light erupted from his body, followed by a dull impact!
Bang!
Su Ge's whip kick slammed into Zhao Wuji's raised arm. Zhao Wuji's expression changed as he felt immense force surge toward him. He couldn't anchor himself to the ground, and his entire body was sent flying backward!
Zhao Wuji was sent crashing into the distance. After colliding with the ground several times, he finally seized an opportunity to stop his continued flight!
"Kid, you've got quite a bit of strength!"
Zhao Wuji panted with lingering fear as he slowly rose from his half-crouched position.
Although he had only resisted that kick hastily, he was still a powerful Soul Saint and hadn't suffered any serious injury. However, if he had been even a little slower and failed to activate his soul skill in time, that kick would have left him in a sorry state!
With that one strike, he confirmed that Su Ge could last through the entire time it took an incense stick to burn.
Su Ge was knocked away by the rebounding force from Zhao Wuji's soul skill, but he deftly shifted his body in midair and came to a stop.
Hearing Zhao Wuji's words, he nodded as though he had confirmed something.
Then he turned toward Tang San and the others and reminded them, "By the way, if you join in, remember to be careful."
After saying that, he looked back at Zhao Wuji. "Teacher Zhao, shall we continue?"
"Good kid, bring it on!"
Zhao Wuji snorted coldly and became serious as well. His entire aura changed, and his hands transformed into bear paws. Then, as his Third Soul Ring lit up, an invisible force of gravity instantly pressed down on Su Ge!
Gravity Enhancement!
Zhao Wuji's Third Soul Skill enhanced the gravity in a designated area, restricting his opponent's movement.
"This time, it's my turn!"
Zhao Wuji suddenly leaped into the air, his palms carrying unparalleled force as they smashed down toward Su Ge, who was being crushed by the gravity!
During the process, he simultaneously activated his Fourth Soul Skill, Position Tracking, locking onto Su Ge.
His Fourth Soul Ring flew out directly and encircled Su Ge!
Three soul skills activated in an instant!
Moreover, anyone caught in this chain of attacks would have a hard time handling it!
"Kid, take this!"
Seeing Zhao Wuji leap high into the air and come crashing down toward him, Su Ge showed no intention of dodging.
He had entered this battle to test his own strength, so he neither dodged nor evaded. He simply stood where he was and waited for Zhao Wuji to attack.
The muscles in his arm bulged. Facing Zhao Wuji as he descended, he chose to meet head-on this Battle Soul Saint with the powerful Martial Soul, Vajra Bear!
Boom!
As the two clashed, a huge cloud of dust billowed outward from them, and for a moment, nobody could see what was happening inside!
"What happened? Is Su Ge all right?"
Xiao Wu constantly waved away the dust around her while peering toward the center of the battlefield, wanting to see how Su Ge was doing.
The battle had clearly become something they could no longer participate in.
At the same time, she felt somewhat disgruntled. Why was there any need to discuss tactics? Wasn't this just the same old method?
Su Ge had taken over the battlefield all by himself, leaving them no chance to act.
Meanwhile, purple light swirled in Tang San's eyes. Through the howling dust, he gradually saw two figures facing off against each other.
Gradually, a look of shock rose in his eyes, as though he had witnessed something unbelievable!
He quickly summoned his Martial Soul and controlled the Blue Silver Grass to sweep away the surrounding dust. The others also saw the scene within!
Su Ge stood where he was. A huge pit had already appeared beneath the two of them. Standing inside it, he had extended both hands and firmly caught Zhao Wuji's descending palms.
For a moment, the two men's hands were locked in a stalemate in midair.
No matter how much force Zhao Wuji put into those bear paws, he couldn't push Su Ge's hands down even a fraction!
"As expected of a Soul Saint with the Vajra Bear Martial Soul. Your strength really is terrifying!"
Su Ge looked at Zhao Wuji's face as it gradually flushed red and spoke with a hint of admiration.
However, his words held no credibility at all, because the outcome between them was already clear.
Zhao Wuji had used four Soul Rings. If he used his Fifth Soul Ring as well, the winner of this battle could already be decided!
As for using his Martial Soul Avatar? Zhao Wuji didn't think he could bring himself to do that. It was impossible for him to use such a trump-card soul skill against a Soul Ancestor!
"But now, it's my turn!"
Su Ge grinned. Gradually exerting force with his hands, he forcibly pushed Zhao Wuji's arms upward!
Zhao Wuji's arms trembled slightly, but he couldn't stop the process no matter what he did.
Su Ge's right foot began to rise from below, gradually becoming covered in a phantom layer of leg armor that extended up to his calf.
He suddenly exerted force, flinging Zhao Wuji's hands upward. Using his left leg as an axis, he delivered another whip kick and viciously swept it into Zhao Wuji's waist and abdomen!
Zhao Wuji hurriedly activated his First Soul Skill, Immovable Wisdom King Body, once more, hoping to block the whip kick.
But at that moment, the second Soul Ring on Su Ge's body finally lit up!
"Second Soul Skill, Sky-Ripping Claw!"
His whip kick carried the effect of his Second Soul Skill and slammed viciously into the layer of golden light. More than fifty percent of the damage bypassed defenses as true damage, all of it landing on Zhao Wuji!
"Ah!"
Unable to hold back, Zhao Wuji immediately let out a scream. It was as though a powerful Soul Beast had delivered a savage blow to him, sending him flying backward once again!
This time, however, he moved even faster than before!
Su Ge didn't stop there. His entire body moved in an instant, and his golden hair left a golden afterimage as he accelerated.
His illuminated eyes were like a shooting star racing through the air. He quickly caught up with Zhao Wuji, who had been sent flying backward!
"Teacher Zhao, you'd better be careful!"
Zhao Wuji's face twisted into a grimace. Although he had no external injuries, the areas that had been struck were in unbearable pain.
When he saw how fast Su Ge was, his expression finally changed.
He suddenly felt that this incense-stick-long trial was going to be rather difficult.
As an examination, he was destined not to use his full strength. He couldn't even easily use his Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring. Once he did, this would no longer be a simple examination.
Bang!
He had no time to think. Su Ge's fist shot out again, not only stopping Zhao Wuji's flight with a single punch, but also bombarding him with attacks as dense as falling raindrops!
Under the restrictions and overwhelming difference in raw attributes, Zhao Wuji recognized for the first time what it meant to be torn apart!
As for the others watching from the sidelines, they had long since been so shocked by the scene before them that they were speechless...
