Faced with Xu Jiujiu's desperate final strike, Ye Fan had no choice but to summon the Snow Girl.
"Snow Girl, help me defend!"
Ye Fan summoned the Snow Girl's spirit, and she heard his call.
"Eek eek!"
"Emperor's Palm!"
Ice and snow drifted down from the heavens, while layers upon layers of ice crystals formed in the space around Ye Fan.
This made things miserable for the Titled Douluo serving as the referee.
He could only grit his teeth through his injuries and protect Ma Rulong and Huang Heyun.
As for Ye Fan and Xu Jiujiu, he truly could not handle them.
"I can't handle this, I can't handle this!"
At the same time, Emperor Xu Jiawei of the Star Luo Empire watched Xu Jiujiu unleash the strongest strike of her Star Crown Martial Soul, his face originally filled with pride.
But when he saw that Ye Fan was utterly unafraid...
"What soul skill is that? It can actually freeze space and block Jiujiu's full-power strike."
Yet he had little time to think.
Because the range of the battle on the field had already begun to spread.
Left with no choice, Xu Jiawei called out to the several consecrated elders beside him, "Old Man Man, esteemed consecrated elders, please act and protect the surrounding spectators!"
"Alright!"
Following several replies, a few terrifying figures appeared at the edge of the spectator stands the next instant, desperately resisting the dreadful force of Ye Fan and Xu Jiujiu's collision.
In the end, frost covered the ground and heavy snow drifted through the air. The Snow Girl's Emperor's Palm shattered every one of Xu Jiujiu's hopes.
Just before the palm wind descended, Ye Fan communicated with the Snow Girl. "Snow Girl, that's enough."
Though displeased, the Snow Girl still did as he asked. In the end, the Emperor's Palm turned into a frigid wind that brushed across Xu Jiujiu's cheek.
Xu Jiujiu only felt a slight chill on her face, yet she had not suffered the slightest injury.
At that moment, Ye Fan said to Xu Jiujiu, "Your Highness, I won by luck."
"Ye Fan, you won. But I feel that wasn't..."
"Your own power, was it?"
Although Xu Jiujiu had lost to Ye Fan, as a prodigy of the younger generation, she still wanted a clear answer.
Ye Fan thought to himself, Well done, Xu Jiujiu. She only took one look and already guessed the crux of the matter.
"Strictly speaking, it isn't my own power."
"But I can tell you that it is indeed under my control right now."
Below the arena, everyone from Shrek Academy watched Ye Fan and Xu Jiujiu's ultimate battle with grim expressions.
They asked themselves, "If we had faced either Ye Fan or Xu Jiujiu alone, would we have had any hope of winning?"
"Why is the gap between people so huge?"
"No, they have Ye Fan and Xu Jiujiu, but we have Huo Yuhao."
Everyone turned to look at Huo Yuhao in unspoken agreement.
Ma Xiaotao asked Huo Yuhao, "Little brother, can your spatial soul skill withstand the strongest attacks of Ye Fan and Xu Jiujiu?"
Hearing his sister Ma Xiaotao's question, Huo Yuhao thought for a moment before answering, "I won't know until I've fought them!"
"But I feel that as long as it's a soul skill, I can withstand it!"
"That's good, then!"
On the field, the referee announced, "The winning team of the Continental Soul Master Tournament's semifinal match is the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy!"
"Wooooo!"
"We won, we won!"
Lin Xi, Chen Fei, and Mijia could no longer contain themselves. They rushed onto the field, picked Ye Fan up, and cheered.
What they did not know was that the Snow Girl had forcefully drained Ye Fan's soul power during that battle, leaving his entire body depleted.
After being tossed into the air several times by them, he completely passed out.
"Ye Fan!"
"Ye Fan!"
The next day, Ye Fan awoke from his unconsciousness.
"Xiaofan, you're awake!"
A concerned voice rang beside Ye Fan's ear.
Ye Fan opened his eyes and saw Jing Hongchen's concerned face. "Teacher, how long was I asleep?"
Jing Hongchen was still shaken with lingering fear.
"A full day and night!"
"Xiaofan, how are you feeling?"
After that great battle, four people from both sides had been seriously injured.
Jing Hongchen did not even have the mood to watch Shrek Academy's semifinal match that day.
"Teacher, I'm fine! I just feel completely drained of soul power, and I'm really hungry!"
Ye Fan's stomach began rumbling on its own.
"As long as you're alright!"
"I'll have food brought over right away!"
Before long, under the stunned gazes of the waiters, Ye Fan finished enough food for dozens of people.
His body finally recovered considerably.
At the same time, his body began circulating again, absorbing soul power.
With the combined effects of food and absorption.
Ye Fan spent an entire day before fully recovering all his soul power.
At this moment.
The other winning team of the Continental Soul Master Tournament's semifinals was decided. Unsurprisingly, it was the Shrek Team, which had Huo Yuhao as a cheat.
At this time, in Shrek Academy's hotel area.
A group of people was making pre-match preparations for the upcoming final.
The team's leader, Wang Yan, was addressing them.
"Students, you have made it to the final, and your teacher is very happy."
"Next, I have some good news for you."
"According to reliable information, three main members of your opponent, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy, were seriously injured in the earlier matches and no longer have any possibility of participating in the final."
"Therefore, as long as you fight steadily in the next match, you will definitely win!"
Upon hearing this news, Huo Yuhao asked curiously, "Teacher, how is Ye Fan doing?"
At those words, Wang Yan and the many team members all looked at Huo Yuhao.
Wang Yan said, "It seems Ye Fan has already recovered!"
"That's good!"
Ye Fan's side, however, was in a rather bad situation.
After that great battle, Xiao Hongchen, Meng Hongchen, and Ma Rulong had all been seriously injured. Though their injuries were not fatal, without a miracle, they truly had no chance of fighting again anytime soon.
While Ma Zhanshan kept sighing at Jing Hongchen.
Someone knocked on the door from outside. "Your Excellency Toad, Xu Jiujiu requests an audience!"
"Hm? What is she here for?"
Though Jing Hongchen was puzzled, he still opened the door for her.
Besides Xu Jiujiu, two elderly women stood behind her.
"What guidance does Your Highness have for us?"
Jing Hongchen asked Xu Jiujiu in an indifferent tone.
Xu Jiujiu was not embarrassed. Smiling, she said, "Your Excellency, this is the empire's consecrated elder, Senior Medicine Immortal Douluo. Jiujiu knows that the previous battle caused your team members tremendous injuries, so I specially brought Senior Medicine Immortal Douluo here to see whether she could help you."
"Medicine Immortal Douluo!"
Ye Fan, Jing Hongchen, and the others all turned their gazes toward the plainly dressed elderly woman behind Xu Jiujiu.
"Then we'll have to trouble Medicine Immortal Douluo."
Hearing this, Jing Hongchen shed his initial coldness and smiled at Medicine Immortal Douluo instead.
"Your Excellency is too polite. Take me to see them!"
"Alright!"
Jing Hongchen led the way, and everyone arrived at another quiet room. At that moment, the healing soul master accompanying the team was still inside, helping the three stabilize their vital signs.
When Jing Hongchen and the others arrived, the healing soul master nodded to Jing Hongchen in acknowledgment.
This was also the first time Ye Fan had seen Xiao Hongchen, Meng Hongchen, and Ma Rulong since waking up.
Seeing their injuries now, his expression turned grave as well.
"We'll be in your care, Your Excellency Medicine Immortal!"
