The Child of Fortune Was Terrifying Beyond Belief

Jiang Chen's third Soul Ring lit up, and a current of Ultimate Ice spread outward with him at its center.

Boom!

In midair, Wang Dong, clad in the Light Dragon God Butterfly, was instantly sealed in ice. She could not move a muscle.

She stared at Jiang Chen in disbelief, her heart jolting.

A Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone Skill!

What do I do? I can't move at all.

On the other side, Huo Yuhao and Xiao Xiao were sealed in ice too. Only their thoughts and minds remained unfrozen; they could do nothing else.

The Elders and students watching the match drew sharp breaths.

What a terrifying Soul Bone Skill.

Jiang Chen looked down at them, his face expressionless. "Do you see the gap between us now? Your dream of becoming champions was nothing but a fantasy. I'll give you time to chase me, until you fall into utter despair."

"This match is over!"

He slowly raised his hand. His First Soul Ring lit up, and he unleashed Phoenix Feathers.

In an instant, countless ice-blue feathers rained from the sky, striking all three of Huo Yuhao's team without distinction.

Bang, bang, bang!

The ice encasing the three of them shattered, and they all collapsed, unable to rise.

At that moment,

Huo Yuhao lay on the ground, looking up at Jiang Chen as despair crept into his heart.

Is there no chance left?

Just then, Xiao Xiao miraculously got to her feet and shouted, "Yuhao, we can't give up!"

As soon as she spoke, the three vessels of her Three-Life Soul-Suppressing Cauldron merged into one. She hurled it straight at Jiang Chen.

"You overestimate yourself!"

Jiang Chen stepped forward, gathered Soul Power throughout his body, and threw a fierce punch.

Boom!

The Three-Life Soul-Suppressing Cauldron shattered on impact, bursting into countless specks of starlight. Xiao Xiao spat blood, then fell unconscious with severe injuries. She had lost all ability to fight.

The gulf in Soul Power and Martial Souls was too vast. Xiao Xiao's move was an egg striking a stone, but she had done it anyway.

For the glory in her heart, for Yuhao, she had given everything she had, even though the result was the temporary shattering of her Martial Soul.

Huo Yuhao's eyes reddened. "Xiao Xiao!!"

Suddenly, Wang Dong rose to her feet. Brilliant light erupted around her, and she shot toward Jiang Chen like a massive fireball. "Yuhao, we can't give up before the end!"

"Father, grant me strength!"

Hm?

Seeing Wang Dong fly toward him while calling out to her father, Jiang Chen went on high alert. He immediately activated his third Soul Skill, Phoenix Possession, gaining one second of immunity to mental and physical attacks.

As expected, the trident mark on Wang Dong's forehead lit up. Her Soul Power surged to the level of a Soul Emperor in an instant.

Boom!

Blazing light exploded across the arena. Wang Dong flew back like a cannonball and fell at the edge of the match area, completely unable to fight.

Jiang Chen, meanwhile, staggered back more than ten meters. The light from the Light Goddess Butterfly had burned his arm.

If Phoenix Protection had not blocked most of its power, Wang Dong's desperate strike really would have defeated him.

The power of a God King really is terrifying beyond belief.

Being careful was the right call.

Fighting a child of fortune and a God King's Daughter for glory could get me overturned at any moment.

Jiang Chen turned a wary gaze on Huo Yuhao and said coldly, "Still won't surrender? Both your partners have lost. Are you going to keep struggling?"

At that moment, Huo Yuhao sank into utter despair.

Wang Dong lost.

Xiao Xiao lost too.

I'm the only one left in the arena.

Am I really... going to lose?

Huo Yuhao clenched his fists. A crushing sense of helplessness rose in his heart.

But then his mother's voice echoed in his ears, as though scenes from his life were flashing past, driving away every trace of cowardice.

No!

I can't surrender!

I have to avenge my mother and destroy the White Tiger Duke's Mansion. How can I fall here?

"Brother Sky Dream, I want to win!!"

Huo Yuhao shouted within the Sea of Consciousness.

Without needing to be told twice, Tian Meng took control of Huo Yuhao's body. His eyes turned gold, his Soul Power surged, and he thrust out a hand. "You dare bully someone I chose? Die!"

Ice-blue beams burst from his eyes and shot toward Jiang Chen. The temperature around them plummeted.

Jiang Chen's expression shifted, but he was ready. He raised his left hand, gathered ice and flame within it, and hurled them forward.

The two terrifying forces collided and devoured each other.

With a thunderous boom, they exploded. Phoenix fire splashed everywhere and kept burning, clinging like maggots to bone.

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's expression changed sharply. His head buzzed.

This... this is Ultimate Fire.

How can Ultimate Fire and Ultimate Ice exist in the same person? This kid is too strange.

Yuhao, I tried my best. That was the most I could unleash.

With that, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm returned control of the body to Huo Yuhao. He had done everything he could, but he had never expected his opponent to be hiding a deadly move like Ultimate Fire.

Huo Yuhao fell into despair once more and slowly raised his head.

Just then, the mysterious old man living in the Sea of Consciousness spoke. He was the legendary Holy Necromancer, Undead Calamity Electrolux.

Electrolux clasped his hands behind his back and said calmly, "Little fellow, you seem to have run into some trouble. Let this old man lend you a hand."

With that, Electrolux took control of Huo Yuhao's body, instantly entering the state of a Light Necromancer.

Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow at Huo Yuhao, now possessed by Electrolux. The corner of his mouth twitched.

Is this ever going to end?

How many spirits are going to possess him?

This must be Electrolux now.

Is a child of fortune really this hard to kill?

Jiang Chen raised his hand at once. The Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion Trunk Bone lit up again, gathering an endless current of cold in his palm. "No matter how many tricks you have hidden, I refuse to believe you can come back from the dead today."

"Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion Soul Bone Skill: Phoenix Cry Soaring Sky!"

An endless current of cold converged, forming three Ice Phoenixes that radiated terrifying pressure. They dived straight at Huo Yuhao on the ground.

Not far away, Du Weilun saw this and was about to intervene.

If Huo Yuhao took that attack head-on, he would certainly die.

But Du Weilun suddenly sensed a terrifying power of light within Huo Yuhao and decided not to rescue him.

Electrolux, possessing Huo Yuhao, was chanting a spell. Even with three Ice Phoenixes flying toward him at once, he showed no fear.

Electrolux said calmly, "Hear the divine decree: Shield of Light."

As the incantation ended, a vast Light Magic Circle rose beneath Huo Yuhao's feet, and an enormous shield of light appeared before him.

Boom, boom, boom!

A series of blasts rang out. The Shield of Light shattered, and the three Ice Phoenixes Jiang Chen had unleashed vanished. Huo Yuhao looked even more battered, his clothes in tatters, but he still had not lost.

Hm?

Jiang Chen frowned. He had not expected the attack to be blocked.

Is a child of fortune really this monstrous?

That was a Soul Bone Skill from a four-hundred-thousand-year Ice Jade Scorpion, yet a mere one-ring Soul Scholar blocked it.

Even with Electrolux possessing him, this is too much.

Nearby, Ning Tian and Wu Feng were numb with shock too.

Huo Yuhao was only a one-ring Soul Scholar, yet he had so many tricks and had even blocked Jiang Chen's Soul Bone Skill. It was unbelievable.

Just then, Electrolux began chanting another spell. Power of light gathered around him as he said, "Slumbering Light Dragon, heed my call!"
