Huo Lei Versus Shrek Academy: One Against Seven (Part 2)
"We concede defeat in this match," Yu Xiaogang's voice rang out.
The crowd in the stands of the Blazing Fire Academy cheered.
Huo Wushuang looked at Huo Wu beside him with a slight smile, "Little sister, do you think Huo Lei can achieve a one-versus-seven victory? Although it seems like he easily defeated five Shrek Academy students, it took a lot of effort, especially considering there are still two others left, including Tang San."
Huo Wu hesitated for a moment before replying, "It should be fine. I have confidence in Huo Lei. He hasn't used his third or fifth Soul Skill. Don't forget he's Soul King; his Soul Power reserves are much greater than those of Soul Ancestor."
Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong quickly arrived at the competition venue, Ning Rongrong helped Zhu Zhuqing leave the venue.
Xiao Wu looked at Huo Lei with an adorable expression and said softly, "I'll fight you this time."
"I'll be waiting anytime," Huo Lei replied, while inwardly thinking, "This rabbit is really good at pretending. No way you're going to fall for my tricks."
The match resumed after the referee's announcement.
Huo Lei immediately channeled his Soul Power into his eyes, causing a shimmering light to dance within them. He did this to prevent Xiao Wu from using her Charm Soul Skill. He then released his Martial Soul, activating his fourth Soul Skill for defense. He believed that if he executed the attack correctly, he could win the duel against Xiao Wu with minimal Soul Power.
Xiao Wu activated her Martial Soul immediately, and three Soul Ring rose from her feet. But she didn't attack; instead, she looked at Huo Lei and said, "Why are you, a Soul King, being so cautious? Are you afraid of a Three-Ring Soul Elder like me?"
Huo Lei turned his body away from Xiao Wu and said teasingly, "I've already defeated a cat from the fourth ring, what's there to be afraid of in a rabbit from the third ring?"
The Shrek Academy students were all watching the two on the field with rapt attention. Yu Xiaogang exclaimed in surprise, "This student from the Blazing Fire Academy is so cautious, actually avoiding Xiao Wu. It seems her scheme is unlikely to succeed."
Tang San said, "Xiao Wu already used her Charm skill when dealing with the Balak Academy, so Huo Lei was obviously prepared. The fact that he can remain so clear-headed in continuous combat shows he's no ordinary person."
Huo Wu asked in a questioning tone, "Then why don't you dare look at me?"
Huo Lei said sarcastically, "Shameless in broad daylight. Why should I look at you? You're not even as good-looking as that cat from before!"
Xiao Wu exclaimed angrily, "You!"
In an instant, she softened again, "If you have the guts, then look at me. Otherwise, even if you are Soul King, I, Three-Ring Soul Elder, will look down on you."
"Enough with the nonsense, take this!" Huo Lei had lost his patience. He still didn't look at Xiao Wu, but his right hand swung out, sending a string of fireballs flying towards Xiao Wu.
"Damn it!" Xiao Wu was furious when she saw that Huo Lei not only failed to fall for her plan but also attacked her.
Xiao Wu spread out her body and dodged the fireball flying towards her.
Huo Lei spared no effort in expending a large amount of Soul Power to activate his First Soul Skill, his right hand waving wildly incessantly. Numerous fireballs were released from his right hand, causing Xiao Wu to frantically dodge them.
Huo Lei seized the opportunity and immediately activated his second Soul Skill, Flame Ring Bind.
A ring of Flame instantly formed in the air, and under the control of Huo Lei, Xiao Wu.
Seeing the fire ring hurtling towards her, Xiao Wu instantly activated her third Soul Skill, and a purple Soul Ring pulsed out from her body.
"Teleportation!"
Xiao Wu not only dodged the fireballs and fire rings, but also closed the distance to the Huo Lei.
At this moment, Huo Lei deliberately feigned weakness in his Soul Power, and his attacks began to weaken. At the same time, he lowered his guard, allowing Xiao Wu to get close.
Seeing that the opportunity had arrived, Xiao Wu quickly Teleportation to Huo Lei's side, and her First Soul Ring lit up.
"It's over. First Soul Skill, Waist Bow!"
Xiao Wu's scorpion braid Entanglement directly around Huo Lei's neck, or more precisely, Entanglement his Huo Lei Lava Armor, because he had been using his Soul Power to support his fourth Soul Skill.
The successful activation of Xiao Wu's Waist Bow greatly excited the Shrek Academy students standing in the stands. They all knew how powerful Xiao Wu's Waist Bow; once activated, it almost never failed.
"This guy named Huo Lei isn't all that great! He's still..." Ma Hongjun was stunned before he could finish his sentence.
The students from various academies who were watching had all witnessed Xiao Wu unleash her First Soul Skill, severely beating the captain of the Balak Academy. They all thought that Huo Lei was finished now.
When the students of the Blazing Fire Academy saw Xiao Wu activate her First Soul Skill, Waist Bow, they all became worried for Huo Lei, as they knew how powerful this Soul Skill was.
Just when the entire audience thought Huo Lei was about to lose, an astonishing scene unfolded.
Huo Lei reached back with his left hand and grabbed Xiao Wu's scorpion braid. With a sudden jerk, Xiao Wu appeared directly in front of Huo Lei from behind, her back to him. He then tightly embraced Xiao Wu with his right hand and raised his left hand high.
A black Soul Ring suddenly appeared around Huo Lei's body, Lightning frantically gathered in his left palm, forming a huge lightning ball in the blink of an eye. He threw it directly into the air, and the sky changed color instantly. The lightning ball exploded, and five bolts of Lightning struck down, one of which directly hit Xiao Wu.
Huo Lei laughed smugly, "Hahaha! You think you can dodge? Let's see how you dodge this time. I'll let you taste the feeling of Five-Thunder Strike again!"
Xiao Wu's face turned ashen as she struggled frantically, but she couldn't break free from Huo Lei's right arm.
Boom--
Xiao Wu was struck directly by the Lightning released by Huo Lei and immediately lost consciousness.
It was too fast; it only took a few seconds. By the time the Shrek Academy students realized what was happening and tried to stop it, it was too late.
"No--, Xiao Wu!" Tang San roared wildly, his eyes bloodshot, and rushed towards the arena at top speed.
"Xiao Wu!" The students of the Shrek Academy cried out in anguish.
Liu Erlong moved with lightning speed, rushing directly towards Xiao Wu on the competition field.
At this moment, Huo Lei hurriedly approached the referee. He was also a little afraid. Although there were many experts present, he had to find some protection just in case, and the referee was obviously the best choice. If Liu Erlong from the Shrek Academy went crazy and suddenly attacked him, he could use the referee as a shield. After all, Huo Lei was not at his peak at this time, and even at his best, he had no chance of winning against this crazy woman Liu Erlong.
"Xiao Wu!" Tang San called out, squatting down and looking at Xiao Wu, who had been struck unconscious by lightning, his face filled with pain.
Liu Erlong's eyes blazed with fury, his finger pointing at the Huo Lei, and he roared, "Boy, do you want to die?"
Huo Lei stood next to the referee and retorted loudly, "You don't need to scare us. I already went easy on your Shrek Academy students, otherwise they wouldn't just be injured. What? Your Shrek Academy students can injure other academies, but our Blazing Fire Academy can't injure you? Is Shrek Academy a sore loser? If you can't play, then don't participate in the competition."
Liu Erlong was furious and raised his fist to lash out. Just then, the referee reprimanded, "Teachers of the Shrek Academy, this is a competition arena, not your academy. Please restrain yourselves. His Excellency the Platinum Bishop already warned you. Have you forgotten what he said?"
Tang San picked up the unconscious Xiao Wu and walked to Liu Erlong. "Teacher Erlong, please take Xiao Wu downstairs and treat her. I'll handle things here."
Liu Erlong took Xiao Wu from Tang San and said to everyone, "Let's go back."
Tang San stared at Huo Lei with bloodshot eyes, his voice icy and chilling, "You will pay a terrible price for your actions."
Huo Lei looked at Tang San as if he were an idiot and sneered, "A terrible price? I'm so scared! You think you can handle that?"
