This Newcomer Was So Arrogant

On the arena

Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo embraced each other. Their Soul Power merged, their Martial Souls resonated, and the sisters' hair fused together.

The sheer volume of their hair was like a flood, enough to cover half the arena and envelop Wufeng as well.

"Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Heavenly Net!"

The next moment, the blue strands of hair began spinning at high speed, forming a tornado that engulfed all three of them.

Wufeng's limbs were bound by the hair, leaving her unable to move. She struggled desperately as flames continuously burst from her body.

Unfortunately, amid the vast net of hair, her flames were like a tiny spark in the night. They could not burn through it at all and were utterly insignificant.

In the spectators' seats

"It really is a Martial Soul Fusion Skill! They only have two rings, don't they?!"

Compared to Wang Xiao defeating Huang Chutian, everyone was even more stunned by the sisters' strength.

This was true domination.

As Soul Grandmasters, they could already use a Martial Soul Fusion Skill. Their future achievements would be limitless.

These two little girls have some potential, Zhang Lexuan thought.

They were worth reporting to the dean and department heads.

In the stands

Zhou Yi looked at Mu Jin beside her and mocked, "Mu Jin, Class Nine is in trouble. Your most promising group might be eliminated in the very first round."

Class Nine's seeded team had encountered a formidable opponent with a Martial Soul Fusion Skill in their first match. How could that not make her happy?

Anyone could tell that victory in this match had already tilted toward Huang Chutian's team.

"Zhou Yi, don't celebrate too soon. Don't forget that Huang Chutian from Class Seven has already been eliminated. It's three against two now." Mu Jin believed the advantage was on their side.

Zhou Yi sneered, believing it was merely Mu Jin's pride at work.

It looked like three against two, but Wufeng was the only one with any combat ability. No matter how strong Ning Tian's Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda buffs were, with the main fighter down, she would have no one left to support.

As for Wang Xiao? He was just a boy who relied on tricks.

In Zhou Yi's eyes, Wang Xiao was neglecting his proper duties. Instead of cultivating his Soul Power, he had gone off to study Self-Created Soul Skills, which was completely meaningless!

Soul Masters should cultivate properly instead of wasting their time on useless nonsense. That is simply foolish!

Zhou Yi sneered inwardly. This was enough to prove Mu Jin's incompetence as a teacher.

If he had been in her class and received her high-quality instruction, even a thorn like Wang Xiao would have achieved far more than he had now.

Below, Huo Yuhao asked uneasily.

"Wang Dong, Xiao Xiao, do you think Brother Wang won't get eliminated in the first match, right?"

Wang Dong'er clenched the corner of her clothes tightly, her fingertips turning white as she stared fixedly at the slender figure on the arena.

"Brother Wang ran two hundred laps in one go. I believe in him. He'll definitely find a way to win!" little Xiao Xiao suddenly spoke up.

She had already seen during the start of school that Wang Xiao was no ordinary person. She believed Brother Wang would not fail so easily.

Huo Yuhao held little hope. Wang Xiao had encountered a team of three Soul Masters in his very first match, and those two sisters even possessed a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

All he could say was... Brother Wang had rather terrible luck this round.

Unlike Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao watched the match below with complete focus, both anxiously worrying for Wang Xiao.

Meanwhile, on the arena

Wang Xiao and Ning Tian had been forced back to the edge of the arena because once they came within twenty meters of the blue tornado, they would be attacked by the hair net.

Heavenly Net not only trapped Wufeng, but also served as a protective barrier, shielding the Lan sisters within it.

Wang Xiao wanted to use illusion techniques to take one of them down, but the sisters would not come out at all. It was unrealistic.

And Heavenly Net was still advancing. Sooner or later, it would swallow them whole. There was simply no way to deal with it.

Wang Xiao sighed softly. "As expected, in the face of absolute strength, techniques are useless. In the end, I still have to respond with strength."

He realized that the hair net had merely become tougher rather than harder. That meant it had to fear something sharp.

"Looks like I can only use that move."

Wang Xiao looked at Ning Tian and said, "Go down. Leave the rest to me."

"Alright." Ning Tian chose to trust him.

Before leaving, she flicked the seven-layered glazed pagoda, sending a streak of purple light into Wang Xiao's body.

"Seven Treasures Have Names, Third: Soul!"

After doing all this, Ning Tian had exhausted her Soul Power and stepped down.

Wang Xiao felt a small portion of additional Soul Power appear within him. His strength and speed increased by another forty percent.

With his strength greatly enhanced, he no longer hesitated and charged toward Heavenly Net.

His hands rapidly formed seals as lightning flickered in his palms.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Hair nets shot from the center of the tornado like blue tentacles, madly stabbing at Wang Xiao as he ran across the ground.

The Three Tomoe in Wang Xiao's eyes spun. His perception took effect, allowing him to predict every landing point and accelerate out of the way.

When the distance was right, he abruptly stopped and raised his hand. Brilliant lightning flared at his fingertips as countless arcs compressed together.

"Lightning Release, Chidori Sharp Spear!"

Wang Xiao thrust out one finger, and the lightning compressed from Chidori shot forth with a sharp hiss.

Bang!

The lightning struck the blue tornado. Energy erupted, and with a bang, a massive gap was blasted open in the hair net.

Through the opening, Wang Xiao saw the unconscious Wufeng and the two sisters embracing each other within.

"Not good!"

The sisters' expressions changed drastically. They hurriedly controlled the hair-net tentacles to attack Wang Xiao while desperately trying to repair the gap.

Unfortunately, their location had already been exposed.

Now that Wang Xiao had received the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda's enhancement, his speed surged.

"Lightning Release, Body Flicker Technique!"

His figure blurred, vanishing from where he stood in an instant.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

More than a dozen hair-net tentacles crashed down, smashing through the floor and kicking up clouds of dust.

Before the tentacles could retract, Wang Xiao had already appeared outside the hair-net barrier, so fast that the Lan sisters could not react at all.

"Lightning Release, Chidori Sword!"

He spread his hand, and violent lightning gathered wildly. The electric light extended, taking the form of a sword.

"Slash!"

Wang Xiao gripped it with his bare hand and brought the sword down. A gap was cut through the hair-net barrier without the slightest resistance, like slicing through tofu.

The Lan sisters did not give up. They controlled the hair net to attack Wang Xiao at the opening, fighting back desperately.

"Once control-type Soul Masters are approached, they become incredibly passive."

Wang Xiao knew that the match was already over.

He rapidly swung the sword condensed from lightning, continuously slashing apart the incoming hair net. He was so fast that it dazzled the eye, as though he were chopping vegetables.

In the spectators' seats, everyone was moved and stunned by the sight.

They were not amazed by Wang Xiao's Self-Created Soul Skill of condensing lightning into a blade, but by the fact that he was holding it with his bare hand without suffering the slightest injury.

That was lightning!

"What an arrogant newcomer! Who is he? Why have we never heard of him before?!"

"How can he control such violent lightning?"

"What exactly is this newcomer's relationship with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon?"

The new students desperately wanted to know Wang Xiao's identity.

"Wow, Brother Wang is amazing! How does he know so many Self-Created Soul Skills?!" Xiao Xiao danced excitedly, her face full of admiration.

Ordinary people might not create even one Soul Skill in a year, yet she had seen several on Wang Xiao. She was completely won over.

Wang Dong'er crossed her arms and snorted. "What's so impressive? That bastard just has a little cleverness, that's all."

At that moment, no one looked worse than Zhou Yi.

She had never thought highly of Wang Xiao. She believed he neglected proper cultivation and relied on cheap tricks.

The facts had seemed to support that view. The boy had been on the verge of defeat, only to suddenly turn the tables and even break a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

Earlier, Zhou Yi had mocked Mu Jin for treating a pheasant like a treasure, saying her team would be eliminated in the first round and embarrass itself.

But now, Wang Xiao had won. It was like a slap across her face.

Was he deliberately humiliating her?!

On the arena

Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo knew they had no chance of winning, so they informed the referee that they conceded.

Zhang Lexuan smiled before announcing, "Class Seven's Huang Chutian team concedes. The winners are Class Nine's Wang Xiao team!"
