Crushing Elephant Armor
The Soul Power Level of all members of the Elephant Armor Academy are not significantly different, with the lowest being Soul Elder of level 36. On average, their soul power levels even surpass those of the Heaven Dou Team.
When Heaven Dou Lu Yang announced his Soul Power Level, the entire arena erupted in a commotion.
"Lu Yang, captain of the Heaven Dou Academy, level 43 Power Attack System Battle Soul Ancestor, please enlighten me."
Even though he had eaten the Immortal Herb and looked much more mature, Lu Yang Lu Yang was still much younger than Feng Xiaotian and Huyan Li, who were almost twenty years old.
However, his Soul Power Level of forty-three was indeed higher than everyone else's. This made geniuses such as Feng Xiaotian, Huo Wu, and Shui Bing'er all start to pay attention to Lu Yang.
"Hmph, what's the use of high Soul Power! I don't believe you can break through our defenses! Brothers, activate your Martial Soul!" At Huyan Li's call, the people from the Elephant Armor Academy activated their Martial Soul.
It has to be said that the entire team of seven possessed the same Diamond Mammoth Martial Soul and had identical Soul Skill, making them appear significantly more imposing than those from other academies.
In the Heaven Dou team, Osler and Yu Feng couldn't help but take a few steps back in the face of such pressure, revealing their inner fear.
"Should I teach them a lesson?" Dugu Yan stood behind Lu Yang, concealing her figure, and asked in a low voice.
Lu Yang shook his head. Dugu Yan's poison was indeed potent, but Huyan Li had just jumped right into his face. He had to take matters into his own hands and teach the other a lesson.
Thinking of this, Lu Yang took a step forward. Four Soul Ring, three purple and one black, appeared beneath his feet, drawing another gasp from the stands.
"What's going on with this Soul Ring Configuration? Am I seeing things?"
"I didn't see any yellow Soul Ring either, that's impossible!"
"What's impossible? You don't even believe in the reality right in front of you?"
"Could it be that the Heaven Dou Empire has mastered a method to absorb Soul Ring beyond their limits? The first spirit ring in a thousand years, the fourth spirit ring in ten thousand years—this is astonishing!"
The discussions outside the arena reached the ring, causing a moment of panic among Huyan Li and the other members of the Elephant Armor Academy. However, they remained confident in the powerful defensive capabilities of their Diamond Mammoth Martial Soul and mustered their courage to press towards Lu Yang and his group.
Just then, Lu Yang leaped into the air, his golden Martial Soul Armor covering his entire body, which greatly enhanced his aura once again.
Immediately afterward, Lu Yang crossed his arms above his head. "Fourth Soul Skill, Sunshine Pervades All!"
The scorching sunlight, formed by the fusion of Ultimate Light and Ultimate Fire, poured down, and Huyan Li and the others instantly raised their Soul Power shields horizontally, trying to block the cascading sunlight.
But how could an attack of Ultimate Attribute be so easily blocked? The burning sensation gradually covered Huyan Li and the others' entire bodies, starting with their legs exposed to the sunlight, then their arms and shoulders, and finally covering their entire bodies.
The excruciating pain from the burning caused Huyan Li and the others to howl in agony. Their seemingly indestructible matrix was breached in an instant.
Seeing Hu Yanli and the others lying on the ground Huyan Li in pain, Lu Yang landed back on the arena. He turned to the referee beside him and asked, "Can we announce the results now?"
The referee swallowed hard, glanced at the pitiful state of the seven members of the Elephant Armor Academy, and then raised his hand to announce to the Heaven Dou Team: "Soul Fighting Heaven Dou Academy wins this battle!"
As soon as the result was announced, murmurs erupted in the stands again. This time, the murmurs were clearly much louder than the previous two.
Lu Yang turned to look at Ye Lingling behind him. "Senior sister, treat them, then we'll go rest."
Ye Lingling nodded, and the Sacred Heart Begonia appeared in her hands. As she chanted the soul incantation, the petals of the Sacred Heart Begonia fell on Huyan Li and the others.
Under the healing power of the Sacred Heart Begonia, the burns on Huyan Li and the others healed rapidly. However, the pain they endured and the energy they expended could not be recovered by any treatment.
As the healing light faded, Huyan Li and the others got up from the ground. But this time, their gazes towards Lu Yang no longer held the previous contempt.
Lu Yang ignored them and led the rest of the Heaven Dou Team off the stage. This battle was won easily, but it also made the Heaven Dou Team the target of everyone's criticism.
"If the next sparring session is another team battle, I won't participate. You guys can handle it. The Elemental Academy teams are all very strong, and they'll be great opponents for you to practice against," Lu Yang said to the others as he returned to the stands.
"Alright, leave it to us." Dugu Yan patted her chest and said.
"Don't worry, with us brothers here, no one can hurt Lingling," Shi Mo assured her, arms crossed.
"That's right!" Shi Mo chimed in from the side.
Yu Feng and Osler didn't respond, but Yu Tianheng, who hadn't appeared yet, stood aside glaring at Lu Yang with gritted teeth.
He really wanted to ask Lu Yang if he was looking down on the Elemental Academy or on them, but as a defeated opponent, anything he said now would only earn him disdain.
"Fine, since he's not going, then we'll go. As long as we make a splash, we can prove ourselves too," Yu Tianheng convinced himself.
The purpose of the exchange competition is not to determine a winner. Although the participating teams from each college may be more concerned with who wins more, the college leaders organize this event to understand the strength of other colleges and to test the level of their own college's team.
After all, these children are going to participate in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament, and they understand the principle of knowing yourself and your enemy to win every battle.
Therefore, Zhi Lin had no objection to Lu Yang not participating in the team battle. He also wanted to see what kind of record the Heaven Dou Team One could achieve without Lu Yang, their strongest little guy.
The exchange competition continued, and after a full round of matches, everyone gained a deeper understanding of the other colleges, naturally leading to more discussions among them.
Especially for academies like Godwind Academy and Blazing Fire Academy, the two academies have basically come together. Of course, the reasons behind this are well known to the students of both academies.
In the second round, Heaven Dou Academy faced Skywater Academy, Dugu Yan drew a seven-on-seven team battle as well.
This time, Lu Yang did not participate in the battle, and the two sides fought back and forth. Yu Tianheng and the others also suffered greatly under Shui Bing'er's Ice Seal, with their offensive momentum being frequently interrupted, and the battle situation once fell into an unfavorable state.
If it weren't for Ye Lingling's healing and Dugu Yan's poison mist crowd control, the Heaven Dou Team would have definitely lost this match.
When Dugu Yan left the arena, she wanted to show off to Lu Yang, but Lu Yang immediately poured cold water on her enthusiasm. "Shui Bing'er and Xue Wu have Martial Soul Fusion Skill. If they use it, you will lose."
