Huo Lei Takes on Shrek Academy One Against Seven (Part 2)
On the Shrek Academy's side, Tang San and Oscar rushed into the arena immediately and helped Dai Mubai off. During this process, Tang San gave Huo Lei a cold look before leaving.
Huo Lei noticed Tang San's gaze, but smiled slightly, unconcerned.
The students from the Blazing Fire Academy were clapping and cheering in the stands, overjoyed.
Yu Xiaogang looked at Jing Ling and instructed her, "Jing Ling, if you feel you can't hold on any longer, just admit defeat. Don't try to tough it out."
Jing Ling nodded and headed towards the competition venue.
The match began after the referee's announcement.
Jing Ling didn't speak, but directly released her Martial Soul, and the three Soul Rings on her body—two yellow and one purple—lit up instantly.
"Jing Ling is an agile attacker. As long as I don't let him get close, I don't need to activate my defensive Soul Skill." Huo Lei made up his mind and instantly moved his right hand.
A string of fireballs flew towards Jing Ling.
Jing Ling moved with incredible speed, dodging the fireballs with agility and nimble movements. When she couldn't dodge them, she used her claws to defend herself. In the process, she gradually moved closer to the Huo Lei.
Huo Lei waved his right hand incessantly, unleashing a barrage of fireballs that relentlessly attacked Jing Ling, hindering his program.
While Jing Ling was busy dodging the fireballs, Huo Lei's Second Soul Ring lit up, and a fire ring condensed in the air, heading towards Jing Ling.
Although Jing Ling was fast, the interference from the numerous fireballs distracted her, and by the time she noticed the rings of fire, it was too late to dodge.
After the fire ring enveloped Jing Ling, it contracted rapidly under the control of Huo Lei, trapping him completely.
The fire ring was formed from condensed Flame and was extremely hot. Moreover, it was activated by a Soul King. Jing Ling tried to struggle, but he did not have Dai Mubai's strength, so he could only choose to resist with his Soul Power.
At this moment, Huo Lei had already rushed up to him. Just as the Flame fist was a foot away from his cheek, Jing Ling shouted.
"I surrender."
As soon as he finished shouting those three words, Huo Lei's fist stopped an inch from his forehead.
Jing Ling's throat involuntarily twitched.
With Jing Ling's surrender, Huo Lei naturally withdrew his Martial Soul and fist, and the Flame naturally subsided.
Huo Lei smiled and looked towards the stands where Shrek Academy was located, and said loudly, "A wise man submits to circumstances; admitting defeat will save you from being beaten. Who is Shrek Academy next?"
The sound of Huo Lei was deafening, echoing throughout the entire arena. He used the opportunity of defeating the Shrek Academy students to warn the other academies.
At this moment, everyone at the Shrek Academy, whether teachers or students, was furious, their faces flushed red, but they were all helpless.
Yu Xiaogang's face was ashen. He looked at the Shrek Academy students and instructed them, "Listen up, everyone! Don't act rashly. If you can't hold on, admit defeat. Don't fall for Huo Lei's scheme."
The third Shrek Academy to appear was Huang Yuan. His battle and ending were the same as Jing Ling's; he didn't last long before choosing to concede defeat. The only advantage was that he wasn't injured, which provided valuable strength for the Shrek Academy's upcoming battles against other academies.
The fourth Shrek Academy to appear was Tai Long. His Martial Soul was the Mighty Gorilla, Three-Ring Soul Elder, whose outstanding strength was his power! During his battle with Huo Lei, the two clashed fists, and Tai Long was knocked back several meters by Huo Lei. Not only was his right fist fractured, but he was also burned by Huo Lei's Flame.
Huo Lei looked at the Shrek Academy and mocked, "Is Shrek Academy even any good? How come you sent some Three-Ring Soul Elder? Aren't your Four-Ring Soul Ancestor still asleep?"
Huo Lei's words echoed across the competition venue, eliciting laughter from the students of the various college teams in the spectator stands.
Huo Wushuang looked at Huo Wu beside her and said, "Our Huo Lei is not only strong, but his strongest skill is also quite formidable! Those people from the Shrek Academy must be furious. Hahaha!"
Huo Wu smiled and said, "Huo Lei is right. So far, only Dai Mubai, who is a four-ring Soul Master, has been sent out. The other three are all Three-Ring Soul Elder. So they are not wrong either."
In the stands where Godwind Academy was located, a student approached Feng Xiaotian and said, "Boss, your brother-in-law is really something! His strength and his words are both top-notch. I think you should spend more time with him in the future; maybe it'll help you and Huo Wu get together."
Feng Xiaotian wasn't angry at all. Instead, he chuckled and said, "You're right. I'll go find him when I have time and learn from him."
In the stands of the Skywater Academy's competition, Shui Yue'er exclaimed, "I'm only now realizing that Huo Lei is quite handsome, and he's also powerful and domineering, yet still has a sense of humor."
Xue Wu looked at Shui Yue'er, "Why have you fallen for Huo Lei again? What about Dai Mubai?"
Shui Yue'er blushed and said shyly, "Oh dear! Xue Wu, you're making fun of me! How annoying!"
As they were playfully fighting, they didn't notice that Shui Bing'er's gaze towards Huo Lei seemed to have gained a new sparkle.
In the stands of the Thunderclap Academy's match, Yu Tianxin said smugly, "Now Shrek Academy has finally met its match."
At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing had already stepped onto the competition field; she was the fifth contestant sent by the Shrek Academy.
When Huo Lei saw Zhu Zhuqing, his pupils contracted slightly, and he thought to himself, "That kid Dai Mubai is really lucky."
"The match begins," the referee announced.
"Meow!"
A cat's meow rang out.
A large, black cat phantom appeared behind Zhu Zhuqing.
Zhu Zhuqing formed her hands into claws, assumed a fighting stance, and four Soul Ring emerged from her body.
"Zhu Zhuqing is Agility Attack System Soul Ancestor, essentially an upgraded version of Jing Ling, so we can't be careless." Huo Lei's thoughts flashed through his mind.
Huo Lei smiled and said, "Come on, big cat, let me see what you're capable of."
"Fourth Soul Skill, Lava Armor!"
"Hmph! I refuse to believe I can't break through your defense." Zhu Zhuqing's first three Soul Ring lit up simultaneously, launching an attack on Huo Lei.
"Hell Stab!"
"Nether Hundred Claws!"
"Nether Slash!"
"Clang clang clang~"
Zhu Zhuqing's attack landed on Huo Lei's Lava Armor, producing a series of metallic clanging sounds.
After Zhu Zhuqing used her first three Soul Skills, her body instantly moved more than ten meters away.
Huo Lei looked at Zhu Zhuqing and mocked, "Hahaha! A flurry of attacks, but the damage is only 0.5. Big Cat, your attack power is still too weak. Soul King's fourth Soul Skill is not something a Soul Ancestor like you can break, especially since you only used the first three. I don't have that much time to waste on you. Use your fourth Soul Skill! If you still can't break it, just admit defeat and go cool off somewhere else."
Zhu Zhuqing's face was icy cold as she angrily retorted, "How dare you mock me?"
Huo Lei said, "Hmph! That's the truth. I advise you to know when to stop! Don't be ungrateful."
"Fourth Soul Skill, Nether Shadow Clone!"
Zhu Zhuqing split into three and instantly attacked Huo Lei.
Another clanging sound of metal striking metal.
Huo Lei remained standing in the same spot, his Lava Armor showing no signs of damage.
After Zhu Zhuqing finished attacking Huo Lei, she landed ten meters away, panting heavily, her body heaving violently, a hint of shock in her eyes. She had always been confident in her speed and attack, but she hadn't expected that after using all four of her Soul Skill, her opponent wouldn't be injured at all. A look of disappointment immediately appeared on her face.
Huo Lei smiled and said, "You're really big but brainless, a complete idiot. Big cat, do you know what it means to use stillness to control movement? Look at you, you're exhausted, and you haven't even hurt me. Admit defeat and get down."
"You! You~"
Zhu Zhuqing was already devastated, and Huo Lei's actions only provoked her further, causing her to spit out a mouthful of blood. Her body swayed involuntarily, and she barely managed to regain her balance.
