Myriad Phenomena True Body

The Ice Phoenix raised its head, its wings covering half of the arena.

The snow curtain created by Xue Wu converged on it, and every snowflake turned into sharp ice crystals. Frost quickly formed on the surface of the arena's protective shield, and the Referee on the sidelines had to mobilize his Soul Power to resist the cold.

Shui Bing'er's voice came from inside the Ice Phoenix.

"It's not too late to admit defeat."

Yuan Yu stretched his arms, which he had just freed from the ice. "I just got the seventh ring, I need to find a place to test it out."

The Ice Phoenix flapped its wings forward.

Blizzard swept in.

Tang San's fourth Spirit Ring lit up, and Blue Silver Cage rose up around the Shrek Seven Devils. Ice crystals struck the grass leaves, and large areas of frost spread rapidly. The Blue Silver Grass was not afraid of fire, but it would still stiffen in the face of extreme cold. The first layer of the cage was quickly frozen and lost its resilience.

"Oscar!"

The Pink Sausage have already been handed out to everyone.

Dai Mubai ate the sausage, and the White Tiger Vajra Transformation and White Tiger Bodyguard Barrier activated simultaneously. He stood at the forefront, his palms bracing against the ice. Xiao Wu stood guard in front of Ning Rongrong, while Oscar huddled behind the rock wall, handing out the Recovery Big Sausage one by one to everyone.

Ma Hongjun unleashed the full power of the Phoenix Flame.

The red wall of fire was quickly lowered by the Blizzard as it rose; fire met ice, and thick white fog enveloped everyone inside.

Tang San's clothes were stretched open by the Eight Spider Lances.

Eight Spider Lances pierced the arena, supporting the body that was sliding backward. Blue Silver Grass grew outward along the Spider Spear, one layer breaking and the next layer immediately filling in.

"Yuan Yu, to the upper left!"

The Purple Demon Eyes pierced through the snow mist.

Tang San saw the Soul Power nodes Falling Snow and Ice. Shui Bing'er was responsible for condensing the Ice Phoenix, Xue Wu maintained the Blizzard on the outside. The two Soul Power converged at the root of the Ice Phoenix's left wing.

The Seventh Spirit Ring beneath Yuan Yu's feet lit up.

Golden light rose from the snow mist.

"Myriad Phenomena True Body".

Yuan Yu gripped the hilt with his backhand and drew the Sun Wheel Blade from the center of the wheel on his back.

A two-meter-diameter Myriad Phenomena Wheel Prototype hovered behind Yuan Yu, with seven bright slots illuminating simultaneously. Light patterns covered his body, and the frost outside his White-Clad rapidly melted in the power of light.

The Water Pattern first.

The ice crystals that rushed towards them were drawn to the sides of the arena and crashed into the protective shield. Flame Pattern then lit up, and crimson-gold fire lines spread along the blade, burning a path to the Ice Phoenix.

The Blizzard immediately filled the gap.

The Wind Pattern spun halfway around, parting the oncoming snow curtain. Lightning bolts surged into the sky along with the wind, shattering large swathes of ice crystals that had not yet fallen.

Rock Pattern rose from beneath the feet of the Shrek team.

The thick stone wall blocked the cold winds from both sides, instantly easing the pressure on Tang San to maintain the Blue Silver Cage. The Mist spread along the stone wall, and Yuan Yu in the Ice Phoenix's eyes immediately turned into several overlapping images.

"All seven elements can be used at the same time?" Shui Yue'er stood on the sidelines, her voice rising several decibels.

Shui Bing'er did not answer.

She and Xue Wu had already channeled all their Soul Power into their fusion skill. Unable to lock onto Yuan Yu, the Ice Phoenix directly swooped down towards Shrek's position.

The massive body, carrying the Blizzard, pressed down, freezing the stone slabs of the arena layer by layer.

The Wheel on Yuan Yu's back spun the fastest.

Golden light descended from the top of the Sun Pattern, flowing along the Wheel Axis into the Sun Wheel Blade. The scorching breath in his chest reappeared, and his blood and Soul Power accelerated simultaneously.

He charged towards the Ice Phoenix.

"Yuan Yu!" Xiao Wu called out from behind.

"Don't come out."

Yuan Yu stepped onto the Blue Silver Grass that Tang San had raised, using its momentum to leap into the air. The Ice Phoenix opened its long beak and unleashed a chilling breath directly at him.

Water Pattern spread out from the blade, diverting the breath to both sides.

Flame Pattern and Sun Pattern protected the blade, while Wind Pattern propelled Yuan Yu forward. Ice grew upwards along his sleeves, only to be gradually melted away by the light power within the Wheel.

The distance between the two sides was reduced to ten meters.

Tang San, focusing on the base of the left flank, reminded again, "Three feet below the intersection point!"

Yuan Yu turned his body in mid-air.

The Sun Wheel Blade traced a complete arc along the shoulder and back, its golden blade light connecting end to end.

"Sun Breathing, First Form, Sunflower Dance!"

A golden arc cuts into the left wing of the Ice Phoenix.

Instead of brutally slicing the entire Ice Phoenix to pieces, the blade's light precisely grazed the point where Shui Bing'er and Xue Wu's Soul Power intersected. After the location Tang San pointed out was severed, the Ice Phoenix charged forward several meters, and its body began to disintegrate from its left wing.

Large ice crystals fell from the sky.

The Rosy Cloud Pattern behind Yuan Yu revealed Shui Bing'er and Xue Wu's positions from the snow mist. Feng Liu caught their falling bodies, and the Water Pattern swept away the sharp ice blocks around them, gently placing them on the arena.

The Falling Snow and Ice completely melted away.

Shui Bing'er knelt on one knee, Xue Wu leaning on her shoulder; both of them had exhausted their Soul Power. The other five members of Heavenly Water wanted to step forward, but Tang San's Blue Silver Cage had already closed beneath their feet.

Dai Mubai, Xiao Wu, and Tang San stood outside the cage.

Ma Hongjun's Phoenix Fire Line also blocked the last escape route.

Shui Bing'er glanced at the team members behind her and raised her hand voluntarily.

Skywater Academy concedes defeat.

The Referee announced loudly:

Shrek Academy wins!

The final match of the Preliminary Tournament has concluded.

Cheers spread from the central arena to the entire arena. Shrek did not give up on any strong opponents, nor did they rely on surrendering to conserve strength. They fought their way from the Royal Second Team, Elephant Armor, Blazing Fire, and Canghui all the way to Divine Wind, Thunderclap, and Heavenly Water, ultimately ranking first in the Heaven Dou Division with a perfect record.

Yuan Yu retracted Myriad Phenomena True Body.

The nascent form of the Wheel retracted into the Sun Wheel Blade, and the seven Spirit Ring disappeared along with it. As soon as he landed on the ground, Shui Yue'er ran over from the Heavenly Water team.

"Can you play that round again?"

"Not today."

What about the Promotion Tournament?

"Let's see if you can force it out."

Shui Yue'er wanted to ask more, but Shui Bing'er pulled her from behind. "Go back and recover your Soul Power first."

She nodded to Yuan Yu and Tang San respectively.

See you in the Promotion Tournament.

As the Shrek team left the arena, Xue Qinghe had already come down from the VIP seats. He stood at the exit of the passage and glanced at the Sun Wheel Blade at Yuan Yu's waist.

"Congratulations, you've reached the age of twelve and become Soul Sage."

Yuan Yu took a half step closer and lowered his voice. "You felt it this morning?"

Qian Renxue smiled, using Xue Qinghe's identity as her confidante. "We'll talk about it when we get back."

The two passed each other without anyone noticing anything amiss.

On the other side of the VIP section, Salas had already finished writing a secret report.

"Yuan Yu, twelve years old, Seventy-third Level."

"The origin of the Seventh Spirit Ring is unknown; it is suspected to be God-given."

"The Tool Martial Soul has undergone a second evolution, exhibiting a wheel-shaped external structure, and the Martial Soul Avatar can simultaneously mobilize seven elements."

The secret report was sent to Spirit City through the Spirit Hall's special channels on the same day.

Two days later, at the Papal Hall.

After reading the last line, Bibi Dong paused for a moment on the words "Seventy-third Level".

Yue Guan stood at the bottom of the steps. "Your His Holiness the Pope, shall we send someone to Heaven Dou City?"

"Need not."

Bibi Dong closed the secret report.

"Azure Luan and Ling Yuan are both by his side. Tell Salas to put away those inappropriate thoughts. During the competition, he only needs to observe."

Yue Guan bowed his head in response.

Bibi Dong looked up at the outside of the hall, her expression softening slightly.

The child who ran around the Worship Hall with the Sun Wheel Blade when he awakened at the age of six is now Seven-Ring Soul Sage.

Once Yuan Yu returns to Spirit City, the entire Worship Hall will likely be thrown into chaos by his antics.
