The moment Bei Bei appeared, a wave of enthusiastic cheers and shouts erupted in Soul Arena Hall Seven.
It was easy to see that a large portion of the audience in Soul Arena Hall Seven had come specifically to support Bei Bei.
"Both sides, prepare!"
The referee's gaze swept over the two of them in turn as he raised one hand high.
When Bei Bei and Zhao Yongnian each reached one end of the Soul Arena Platform, his arm dropped sharply. "Begin!"
Roar—
A low, deep tiger's roar suddenly rang out across the Soul Arena Platform.
A burst of dark-red fire bloomed. Zhao Yongnian's body abruptly grew a foot taller, while brownish-yellow fur spread wildly over his hard, rock-like bulging muscles. Crimson patterns covered him like clusters of flames.
His arms crossed before his chest, and bright silver tiger claws suddenly sprang from his broad, fan-like palms.
At the same time, he strode forward and charged at Bei Bei.
Seeing this, Bei Bei showed no fear whatsoever and met him head-on. As he rushed forward, his Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul possessed him.
Blue-violet light lit up between Bei Bei's brows, gradually forming a lightning-shaped mark.
His body itself did not change much. Only his right hand extended by half a foot, transforming into a dragon claw flashing with lightning.
Two yellow Spirit Rings did not circle his body like ordinary Spirit Rings. Instead, they encircled his arm, pulsing rhythmically.
Bang—
The two exchanged a punch, and an invisible shockwave burst outward.
Zhao Yongnian suffered a slight disadvantage in strength and was blasted back several steps. He immediately changed his fist into a claw, lunging forward with bright silver tiger claws like daggers. He unleashed Tiger Rips Out the Heart, aiming straight for Bei Bei's chest.
Bei Bei flashed aside to evade, then swung his dragon arm. He precisely seized an opening and struck the back of Zhao Yongnian's hand.
Zhao Yongnian's hand immediately turned black and blue, and the pain made him suck in a sharp breath.
Bei Bei pressed the attack, and his first Spirit Ring lit up.
Violent blue-violet lightning gathered at the front of his right hand, forming a larger, more destructive dragon claw.
It was his first Soul Skill, Thunder Dragon Claw.
Bei Bei leaped into the air, his arm slashing down with blazing lightning.
Zhao Yongnian twisted his tiger-like waist and rolled aside, narrowly evading the attack.
Though Bei Bei's strike missed, he had no intention of stopping. His dragon claw glowed, and the next moment, a lightning-condensed dragon claw shot toward Zhao Yongnian like a cannonball.
Zhao Yongnian sprang up with a kip-up, flames erupting in his eyes.
His second Spirit Ring lit up. Flames surged, and in the next instant, Zhao Yongnian vanished from everyone's sight. In his place stood a fierce tiger covered in fire.
The flaming tiger moved on all fours. After a running start, it leaped into the air and barely dodged the Thunder Dragon Claw's blast. Then, like a tiger descending from the mountain, it pounced down from above at Bei Bei.
Roar—
A deep tiger's roar rang out, and rippling waves unexpectedly appeared before the flaming tiger's mouth.
No one noticed that his first Spirit Ring, concealed within the flames, had lit up at that moment.
That roar had been his first Soul Skill, Tiger's Roar.
The low sound waves swept over Bei Bei like a heavy hammer striking the top of his head, leaving him dazed.
In the stands, Lin Yan watched the scene and said in surprise, "Sister Lexuan, look. This Zhao Yongnian really has some skill!"
"Mm."
Zhang Lexuan nodded slightly. "His first Soul Skill should be a sonic Soul Skill with mental control effects, while his second Soul Skill transforms him into a flaming tiger for a short time to launch attacks."
"He uses the transformation from his second Soul Skill to conceal the activation of his first Soul Skill. It is impossible to notice, and it is very easy for opponents to fall for it. Without preparation, someone of the same level would truly find it difficult to withstand such an offensive."
"What about Cousin?"
"Little Brother Lin Yan, don't underestimate your cousin. You cultivate diligently, but he has also put in a great deal of effort to improve himself!"
As Zhang Lexuan finished speaking, the confusion in Bei Bei's eyes suddenly cleared, becoming full of vigor.
Clearly, he had already broken free from the effects of his opponent's first Soul Skill.
"How is that possible?"
The moment Zhao Yongnian noticed the change in Bei Bei, his expression drastically changed.
Normally, this Soul Skill of his could stun Soul Masters of the same level for three seconds. Yet Bei Bei had regained consciousness in less than two seconds. This showed that Bei Bei's will was extremely firm. It would be very difficult for external forces to affect his mind for long.
At the same time, Bei Bei's second Spirit Ring lit up.
Terrifying lightning enveloped Bei Bei's entire body, and the aura he gave off became vastly stronger in just a few moments.
It was his second Soul Skill, Thunderous Force, obtained from an eight-hundred-year Thunder Earth Dragon.
With a sweep of his arm, lightning violently spread outward from his body. In an instant, it struck Zhao Yongnian.
Ah—
Zhao Yongnian cried out in pain.
His second Soul Skill was merely an offensive Soul Skill. This was not a Martial Soul Avatar, so it provided no boost to his own defense.
Powerful currents surged through his body. Zhao Yongnian's Soul Power scattered, and from head to toe, he fell into a state of intense paralysis. His second Soul Skill was interrupted as a result.
The flames dispersed in midair, revealing Zhao Yongnian's true body.
At that moment, he convulsed incessantly under the powerful current, his eyes rolling white from the shock.
Seeing that Zhao Yongnian had been shocked senseless and lost the ability to resist, Bei Bei immediately stopped his second Soul Skill as well. He had no intention of causing a death.
Bang!
Zhao Yongnian's body crashed heavily to the ground. He was drenched in sweat and gasped for breath.
"Still want to continue?"
A polite smile hung on Bei Bei's handsome face. He did not show the slightest arrogance just because he held the advantage.
Zhao Yongnian struggled to raise his head and glanced at Bei Bei. With a bitter smile, he shook his head. "The name Thunderclap Dragon truly lives up to its reputation. Your lightning is too powerful. My flames cannot stand against your lightning. I concede."
After Zhao Yongnian conceded, the referee immediately announced the result.
"Flame Tiger King has conceded! Congratulations to contestant Thunderclap Dragon Bei Bei for achieving fifteen consecutive victories at our Great Soul Arena!"
The moment the referee's voice rang out, Soul Arena Hall Seven erupted into enthusiastic cheers.
Some bold girls even cupped their hands around their mouths and began shouting confessions at Bei Bei.
Lin Yan glanced at Zhang Lexuan.
As a transmigrator, he knew a secret that even Bei Bei himself, the person involved, did not yet know.
Zhang Lexuan was Bei Bei's sister in name, but in truth, she was his child bride.
At present, only Zhang Lexuan herself and Bei Bei's grandmaster, Mu En, knew this secret.
Therefore, when he heard a group of young girls around them begin confessing to Bei Bei, he instinctively wanted to see Zhang Lexuan's reaction.
Looking over, Zhang Lexuan showed no anger at all because of those excited confessions. She merely smiled as she watched Bei Bei on the Soul Arena Platform, a faint trace of gratification in her eyes.
It actually gave off the feeling of seeing "the little brother in my family finally grow up"!
"Zhang Lexuan looks so refined and gentle. Could she secretly have some special 'raising' fetish?"
Having realized this, Lin Yan thought in astonishment.
