Faced with Xu Tianzhen's challenge, Xu Zhengyang instead revealed a strange smile.
"That's interesting. It's been a long time since I've fought anyone at the academy. Since you want to fight, I'll give you a match. But if you lose, you'll have to focus on training with the team and not say a word. Otherwise, you'll be removed from the team."
Xu Tianzhen refused to admit defeat. "Let's fight! Who's afraid of who? If I lose, I'll acknowledge you as my captain. But if you lose, I'll be the captain of the Sun Moon Team, and from now on you can't waste your breath on me."
Xu Zhengyang nodded. "Okay, but I hope you won't cry if you lose later."
Ma Rulong, Ma Rufeng, and the others also looked at Xu Zhengyang with strange eyes. They obviously knew Xu Tianzhen's identity, and if Xu Zhengyang really went too far, he might have a hard time explaining himself.
Soon, an open space appeared on the playground, where Xu Zhengyang and Xu Tianzhen stood facing each other. Xu Zhengyang appeared unusually calm throughout, while Xu Tianzhen was furious.
Ma Rufeng, acting as the referee, immediately announced the start of the match.
Xu Tianzhen clasped his hands together in front of his chest, making a gesture of interlocking his index fingers and supporting the sky. A dazzling light suddenly shot out from his body, especially from the palms of his hands, where a fiery red light instantly bloomed, as if his hands were holding up a Sun.
Simultaneously displaying Soul Ring Configuration, this is Xu Tianzhen's Sun Martial Soul. The moment the Martial Soul appeared, the temperature in the air surged, even faintly connecting with the Sun in the sky.
Everyone couldn't help but swallow hard. Xu Tianzhen's Martial Soul was the Sun, one of the world's top Martial Soul, and also Martial Soul inherited by the Muyue royal family.
Moreover, Xu Zhengyang clearly felt that Xu Tianzhen's Sun Martial Soul was much stronger than his father's. Not only was the temperature much higher, but the intensity of the flames was also much greater. Obviously, Xu Tianzhen was the purest and most outstanding Sun Martial Soul.
In particular, the terrifying Sun fire is not only extremely powerful, but also possesses a certain purifying ability; it is the purest power of the Sun fire.
Xu Zhengyang didn't make any move. Instead, he forcefully thrust the Tiger-Head Zhan Gold Spear he was carrying on his back into the ground.
Xu Tianzhen's expression changed. " Xu Zhengyang, what do you mean by this? Aren't you going to summon your Martial Soul and Soul Ring?"
Xu Zhengyang shook his head. "Dealing with you doesn't require using Soul Skill, nor does it require using Martial Soul or Soul Ring."
Xu Tianzhen was furious. "How dare you underestimate me? I'll make you pay the price!"
Xu Tianzhen's First Soul Ring lit up, and an orange-red light appeared beneath her feet. The orange-red light shooting from above her head sank to the ground, and in an instant, Xu Tianzhen's body vanished. When she reappeared, she was already at the spot where the light had landed, right to Xu Zhengyang's right.
This is Xu Tianzhen's First Soul Skill, Sun Reflection. It can create strong light interference and form a phantom image of the Sun to confuse opponents, while also allowing him to move quickly.
Immediately afterwards, Xu Tianzhen grabbed at Xu Zhengyang with both hands, her right hand holding a golden Sun filled with endless flames. If an ordinary person were hit by it, they would probably be burned to ashes.
Unfortunately, Xu Tianzhen was facing Xu Zhengyang. Neither the intense light interference of the Sun phantom nor the ability to teleport instantly could hide from Xu Zhengyang's powerful mental strength.
Xu Zhengyang suddenly grabbed with his right hand, directly grabbing the fiery red Sun in Xu Tianzhen's hand. The moment his right hand collided with the Sun, the scorching heat seemed to be contained in his hand, causing no harm to his skin or body.
Immediately afterwards, Xu Zhengyang's right hand collided with Xu Tianzhen's right hand. Xu Zhengyang did not retreat at all, but Xu Tianzhen felt a terrifying force coming from his right hand, and he was directly knocked several meters away.
At this moment, Xu Tianzhen's eyes were filled with disbelief. "How is this possible? How could you, a mere Soul Ancestor, withstand my Sun Flame attack? How did you know about the changes in my Sun Illusion technique?"
Xu Zhengyang's eyes flashed with disdain. "The so-called power of Martial Soul and Soul Skill can be completely ignored in the face of true powerhouses. Your so-called True Sun Fire has a very strong attack power, but have you ever thought that I have been in contact with fire for so many years and have been forging with all my might that I have long since developed a certain immunity to fire?"
"As for the changes in the Sun's phantom image you mentioned, anyone with some practical combat experience can basically guess the attack effect of your Soul Skill. What's so difficult about dealing with it?"
Xu Tianzhen swallowed hard, but her eyes were still filled with resentment and anger.
Xu Tianzhen's two Soul Ring flashed, and countless flames transformed into fire needles, instantly enveloping the surrounding area for dozens of meters. The fire needles rushed towards Xu Zhengyang, each one not only extremely sharp but also possessing a powerful burning effect.
This is Xu Tianzhen's Second Soul Skill: Blazing Sun Star Points. It is a group attack skill with great destructive power. If it is targeted at a single person, the attack will be even stronger.
Faced with the attack of countless fire needles, Xu Zhengyang suddenly roared, and a terrifying killing intent instantly erupted from his body, like the Spear Intent. The air within several meters around him seemed to freeze instantly, as if it had been pierced by the Spear Intent.
In an instant, the countless fire needles that had been surrounding Xu Zhengyang's body were shattered into pieces by the Spear Intent.
Xu Tianzhen was also shocked. He didn't expect that his two consecutive Soul Skill would be so easily destroyed by Xu Zhengyang, and Xu Zhengyang did not use Martial Soul or Soul Skill, nor did he use Soul Tool.
Xu Tianzhen let out a loud shout, and his third Fourth Soul Ring lit up simultaneously. A golden light burst forth from his body, and the blazing, pure light filled the surrounding dozens of meters with endless flames. In particular, all the flames condensed together to form a huge fireball, and the entire ground seemed to begin to melt violently in an instant.
This is Xu Tianzhen's Third Soul Skill: Sun Divine Light, Fourth Soul Skill: Sun's Wrath. Judging from its power, this flame is extremely pure and powerful, no less than the legendary Ultimate Fire.
At that moment, Xu Zhengyang's entire body suddenly moved, like a tiger released from its cage. All his momentum gathered in that instant. Although there was no weapon in his right hand, his index and middle fingers were joined together, making it look like a long spear.
Immediately afterwards, Xu Zhengyang exuded a terrifying aura, his entire body resembling a giant spear, with his fingers looking like spearheads. A powerful Spear Intent suddenly burst forth, and with a swift thrust of his right hand, he completely ignored the terrifying flames and the giant fireball, piercing it straight through.
Before anyone else could react, the surrounding air was shattered by Xu Zhengyang. The Spear Intent that Xu Zhengyang had gathered throughout his body pierced through the Sun Divine Light and the fireball formed from countless Sun flames.
When the surroundings returned to calm, Xu Zhengyang had already arrived opposite Xu Tianzhen. The two were very close, and the fingers of his right hand were already pointing at the right side of Xu Tianzhen's neck. A strand of her hair had been forcibly torn off by the powerful Spear Intent.
At this moment, Xu Tianzhen's eyes were filled with fear. In that instant, Xu Tianzhen felt the breath of death. She felt that if Xu Zhengyang's shot had hit her, she would have died without a doubt, and her neck would have been pierced through.
Xu Tianzhen even felt the air around him freeze in that instant, as if it had stirred up the deepest fear in his heart. What he was facing was not a person, but a spear that had been through countless battles, a fearless tiger. His proud identity and his self-proclaimed outstanding talent were utterly insignificant in the face of real death.
Xu Zhengyang withdrew the fingers of his right hand, appearing completely calm, as if he hadn't done anything at all.
"Sorry, it seems you lost. If you lose, you have to accept the punishment. From now on, as a regular team member, you'll learn and train within our team."
Xu Tianzhen seemed not to hear Xu Zhengyang's words. She seemed to lose all her strength and sat down on the ground, ignoring the dust. A tear of fear even appeared in the corner of her eye.
"You, you, you're bullying me!"
Xu Zhengyang shook his head. "I never intended to bully you. Have you ever seen a tiger bully a rabbit? A tiger will only tear a rabbit to pieces and swallow it whole, never caring what the rabbit is thinking."
Everyone swallowed hard. Although Xu Tianzhen was a bit unruly, she was still a beauty by all accounts. They never expected Xu Zhengyang to be so heartless, directly destroying her beauty. Moreover, this battle would leave Xu Tianzhen with a shadow of fear.
Xiao Hongchen quickly came to Xu Tianzhen Xu Tianzhen's side, trying to help her up.
Unexpectedly, Xu Tianzhen instead launched into a tirade. "You bastard, stay away from me! Are you trying to harass me by getting so close? You pervert!"
Xiao Hongchen was immediately embarrassed, unsure whether to reach out or withdraw his hand. He had meant well by helping Xu Tianzhen up, but instead received a severe scolding.
The others, however, were completely oblivious to Xiao Hongchen's current situation, and some even couldn't help but want to laugh.
Clearly, after the battle just now, everyone is very clear that Xu Tianzhen's Martial Soul is the Sun, and he possesses the purest Sun fire. His background is definitely not simple. Moreover, the fact that Xu Tianzhen was able to bypass the assessment and directly enter the Sun Moon Team shows that his background is extremely profound. He is probably a direct descendant of the Sun Moon Imperial Family.
Does that mean Xu Tianzhen is a princess of the Sun Moon Imperial Family? If so, then her unruly and spoiled personality makes sense.
Xu Tianzhen ignored Xiao Hongchen beside her and stood up on her own, but her eyes were still full of anger towards Xu Zhengyang.
" Xu Zhengyang, although I lost to you this time, I will challenge you again sooner or later, and I will become the captain of the Sun Moon Team sooner or later."
Xu Zhengyang shook his head.
"Even now, don't you realize the difference in strength between us? The Sun Moon Team is the strongest elite group in the entire Sun Moon Empire, and I became the captain because I am the strongest, because I can make everyone stronger, so everyone respects me."
"And you, judging from the battle just now, have almost no combat experience and practical combat ability. You're practically at the bottom of the team. What right do you have to say such things?"
Xu Tianzhen was trembling with rage. "You bastard, believe me or not, I'll have my royal brother kill you, believe me or not, I'll have my royal brother remove you from your captaincy!"
Xu Zhengyang smiled and said, "You've got something wrong. You are a princess, indeed noble and high above others, but in the Soul Fighting Arena, strength always reigns supreme."
"Just like Shrek Academy, which you admire and respect the most, their students are not lacking in princesses and princes, nor in inheritors of sects. But these people also have to go through the same training, go through the same elimination rounds, and even face the same danger of death. Yet no one complains, and no one has any special privileges."
"If our Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy wants to defeat Shrek Academy, we must be even more ruthless in our battles and undergo even more brutal training. Otherwise, when we face Shrek Academy again, we will only be a bunch of cowards, and we will fail just like before."
