Tang San gathered all the Blue Silver Grass.
The dense blue vines on the arena vanished in an instant, leaving only fine cracks on the surface of the arena.
Disappointed boos came from the audience, but the old Soul Master in the front row sat up straight.
They had watched many Shrek Academy matches and knew that this " Thousand-Hand Asura " never stopped fighting without reason.
Now that he has removed all the Blue Silver Grass, it means that what he is going to use next will definitely be more troublesome than the vines covering the field. The old Soul Master couldn't help but look forward to it.
Tang San's left hand swiftly pressed against the Twenty-Four Moonlit Bridges at his waist, his fingertips gripping several Bone-Piercing Nail.
At the same time, his First Soul Ring lit up on his right hand, and the Blue Silver Grass broke through the ground again—but instead of spreading out, it concentrated at one point, emerging directly below Zhong Yue's feet and wrapping around his ankle.
This move was very cunning. The feigned attack on Zhong Yue was actually intended to force the Nameless Team to create a gap in their formation that would protect their Defense System.
But Feng Xiaotian wasn't fooled. He took a step forward, his toes twirling, his center of gravity slightly shifting. He didn't activate the Gale Flash Step, but his position was perfectly within Tang San's line of sight.
He wasn't just blocking randomly; he was interfering. Tang San's Blue Silver Grass needed visual guidance; even a moment's visual blind spot would reduce the precision of its Entanglement.
Tang San didn't hesitate. With his left hand, he threw out six Bone-Piercing Nail, sealing off Feng Xiaotian's six directions of movement. At the same time, his right hand unleashed Blue Silver Grass from beneath the arena, binding Feng Xiaotian's shadow—
As long as Feng Xiaotian moves, the Blue Silver Grass will intercept him in advance, following the direction of his shadow. This is a combination technique that Tang San devised himself.
Blue Silver Grass is no longer a tool for proactive attacks, but rather a cage that restricts movement. The real attacking force comes from Hidden Weapon.
Feng Xiaotian finally smiled.
Here it is—this is what he wanted to see.
Gale Flash Step activated. Feng Xiaotian charged forward towards the Bone-Piercing Nail, and just as he was about to be hit by the first one, he tapped his toes, took a half-step to the side, and turned his body to the side.
The second one grazed past the hem of my clothes. The third one ducked to avoid it. The fourth one I deflected with my wrist guard. The fifth and sixth ones arrived at the same time.
At the last moment, the Gale Flash Step abruptly changed its rhythm, switching from short, continuous dodges to a large, arcing movement, positioning itself behind Tang San's side.
Tang San turned around abruptly, his right hand rising from beneath his feet with Blue Silver Grass, attempting to entangle Feng Xiaotian's ankle—but Feng Xiaotian was no longer in that position.
It's Wind Shadow Chain.
Three afterimages appeared around Tang San simultaneously. It wasn't Soul Skill, but an advanced application of the Gale Flash Step —multiple short-distance displacements that left overlapping afterimages in the visual field, making it impossible for the opponent to determine which one the real body was in.
Tang San's pupils contracted sharply. His Purple Demon Eye could see through afterimages—but the three afterimages moved in completely identical trajectories, making it impossible to distinguish their order. This wasn't due to speed, but rather to skillful rhythm.
Tang San had no choice but to give up using his Purple Demon Eye to distinguish the source. But he hadn't given up yet. He closed his eyes, and Blue Silver Grass formed a defensive net around his body.
Since he couldn't distinguish the true form, he decided to protect himself first. However, within the defensive net, Tang San's lips unconsciously tightened slightly. This was the first time he had seen someone his age pursue a different path with Self-Created Soul Skill, and he felt a mix of emotions.
At this moment, Feng Xiaotian's true form suddenly appeared three steps in front of Tang San. It didn't appear from the three afterimages—it appeared from the fourth step.
He abandoned creating afterimages and chose to charge directly. He began using the Break the Surface at One Point, compressing all his Soul Power into the tip of his right index finger and precisely pointing it three inches below Tang San's left shoulder. That was the weakest point in Tang San's defense that he had identified after observing the entire scene through Jiang Lin's projection.
Tang San didn't have time to completely dodge. At the last moment, his Mysterious Jade Hand blocked in front of his chest, his fingertips colliding with his palm. A penetrating force pierced through his defense and entered his body, traveling along his meridians to his shoulder. His left hand went numb, and the Bone-Piercing Nail between his fingers scattered all over the ground.
Tang San froze on the spot, staring blankly at the Bone-Piercing Nail.
The scene fell silent for a moment.
" Shrek Team concedes defeat."
Yu Xiaogang's voice came from the sidelines, not loud, but loud enough for the referee to hear. Flender turned his head sharply to look at him, his face full of disbelief— the Yu Xiaogang he knew was never the kind of person who would admit defeat willingly.
Yu Xiaogang didn't explain, but simply raised his chin slightly, gesturing for him to look at the arena.
Flender turned his head following his gaze. On the arena, Dai Mubai's White Tiger Vajra Transformation could no longer be maintained, and Zhong Yue's Black Tortoise: Wind Armor forced him to kneel on one knee. Ma Hongjun was trapped by Su Mei'er's Wind Fire Bewildering Array and could not even unfold his Phoenix Fire Wings.
Zhu Zhuqing knelt on the edge of the arena. Lu Hanxiao's icy slowing effect completely slowed down her Hell Stab. Xiao Wu was trapped in a corner by Feng Lingtian and Jiang Lin. Ning Rongrong's Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda dimmed, and Oscar's Sausage supply couldn't get in at all.
Flender paused for a moment, offering no rebuttal.
"There's no point in continuing." Yu Xiaogang's voice remained calm, but a complex look flashed in his eyes. "The children have reached their limit."
The referee raised his hand to signal the end of the fight.
Nameless Team wins.
Tang San stood there, looking down at the Bone-Piercing Nail scattered at his feet, then at his left hand, which was still trembling slightly. Not because of the injury—but because of what he had felt during that attack.
That wasn't Soul Power; it was pure skill. Gale Flash Step, Wind Shadow Chain, and Break the Surface at One Point – three Self-Created Soul Skill were linked together, from probing to confusing to finishing, without ever revealing a single Soul Ring.
He had been using his Self-Created Soul Skill in conjunction with his Soul Ring skills, treating the Self-Created Soul Skill as a supplementary tool. Feng Xiaotian, on the other hand, replaced his Soul Ring skills with his Self-Created Soul Skill Self-Created Soul Skill, making them the core of his tactics. The difference between these two approaches silenced him more than the fact that he had lost the match.
Back at the inn, Feng Xiaotian removed his mask. Feng Lingtian poured him a glass of water and asked, "How were you?"
Feng Xiaotian took the water glass and paused for a moment. "There are a few details about his Self-Created Soul Skill combined with Hidden Weapon that I haven't seen before; I need to study them carefully."
Feng Lingtian nodded. He knew what his elder brother's "deliberation" meant—the next battle might bring another new variation to the Gale Flash Step.
