A new round of qualifying matches will begin soon.
The aftershocks of yesterday's battle between Xuan Ming and Feng Xiaotian have not yet subsided, and today the Imperial Fighting Team faces Thunder Academy, making the atmosphere even more tense.
Everyone knows that Thunder Academy is backed by the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and that there is an irreconcilable blood feud between the clan and Xuan Ming.
On the eve of the competition, Yu Xiaogang and Yu Tianheng found the Thunder Academy rest area.
" Tianxin, forfeit this match." Yu Xiaogang cut to the chase, his tone heavy.
"Give up?" Yu Tianxin was taken aback, then a stubborn glint appeared in her eyes. "Why?"
" Tian Heng has received information that this match will be extremely dangerous," Yu Xiaogang said.
"Listen to me, don't fight him. You are no match for him."
Yu Tianxin clenched her fists tightly, her knuckles turning white, her eyes burning with resentment and humiliation. "Uncle! I am the captain of the Thunder Academy! A disciple of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan! To back down in the face of battle? I cannot do it!"
"No matter how strong Xuan Ming is, I must fight him!"
Yu Tianheng sighed helplessly, " Tianxin, this is not the time to act rashly. Xuan Ming's strength far exceeds our imagination. Feng Xiaotian of the Godwind Academy is a cautionary tale. I don't want to see Thunder Academy suffer such a heavy blow."
"Precisely because I've seen it, I can't back down!" Yu Tianxin roared, his chest heaving violently.
"The dignity of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and the honor of the Thunder Academy cannot be lost in my hands!"
Even if I get injured or suffer a crushing defeat, I will let everyone know that there are no cowards among the disciples of our sect!
Chapter 261 Bloody Competition
As time flew by, the highly anticipated match soon officially began.
The Thunder Academy team members stepped onto the Soul Fighting Stage one by one, dressed in blue outfits, radiating intense lightning power, exuding a fierce aura.
Meanwhile, on the Imperial Fighting Team's side, Ye Lingling followed behind Xuan Ming, and the two slowly walked onto the stage.
Although the audience was already used to the Imperial Fighting Team being outnumbered, the scene still erupted when they saw that only these two people were on stage.
Many viewers couldn't help but voice their doubts, and some even shouted that the match was fixed, causing chaos in the scene.
"What kind of game is this?" Gu Rong was a little confused.
He could understand Xuan Ming going it alone; after all, this guy was strong enough to single-handedly defeat all the teams in the qualifiers without any difficulty.
He could understand why Xuan Ming didn't go and the rest of the people went instead. After all, those girls were strong enough that even without any coordination, they could still overwhelm the enemy with their absolute strength, even if they fought alone or just randomly.
But now, Xuan Ming is bringing Ye Lingling onto the stage?
" Uncle Bone, today's match is likely to be a bit bloody." Ning Fengzhi frowned slightly, a solemn expression on his face.
Gu Rong was slightly taken aback. "Could it be that he's going to..."
"With this lineup, I can't think of any other possibility." Ning Fengzhi sighed softly, a hint of helplessness in his voice.
With the strength of the Thunder Academy, they were simply not enough to pose a threat to Xuan Ming, let alone injure him to the point that he needed Ye Lingling's help to heal him.
But Ye Lingling still went on stage, and she was the only one there. The reason for this is obvious.
" Sect Master Ning, do you know something?" Xue Ye couldn't help but ask.
In his view, although Xuan Ming was powerful, the Soul Master in the Great Soul Arena in the past were just some amateurs, completely different from the genius Soul Master cultivated by a powerful organization like Thunder Academy.
Even if Xuan Ming is invincible in the Great Soul Arena, he may not be able to easily defeat these academy teams.
Going on stage alone, and only accompanied by a pure healing-type Soul Master, seems a bit too presumptuous.
"Your Majesty, if I'm not mistaken, this healing-type Soul Master from the Imperial Fighting Team is prepared for the Thunder Academy," Ning Fengzhi said.
Xue Ye was taken aback. "For the Thunder Academy? What does this mean?"
"I'm afraid they might get accidentally killed," Salas said with a hint of schadenfreude.
" Your His Holiness the Pope, it seems today's match is going to be very interesting."
"Maybe." Bibi Dong seemed a little absent-minded.
She was still pondering what Xuan Ming had said earlier—whether or not to hold the finals in Spirit City.
From a purely economic standpoint, causing a ruckus in Spirit City could solve many problems, but that place is ultimately too dangerous.
Even though Xuan Ming was confident about this matter, she didn't want to take that kind of risk.
Doing this elsewhere, while potentially more cumbersome, would be safer, and she would have ample time to resolve any issues that might arise.
But if it were in Spirit City, it would involve an element of gambling...
The central Soul Fighting Arena.
Seeing that Xuan Ming had only brought a weak and frail healing-type Soul Master, the members of the Thunder Academy team were furious.
That's incredibly disrespectful to them!
Seeing the tense atmosphere, the host Doudou didn't say much and directly announced the start of the match. Both sides retreated to their preparation areas and began to release their Martial Soul and form formations.
"Just stay where you are." Xuan Ming led Ye Lingling to an area closer to the edge of the Soul Fighting Arena.
"Mm." Ye Lingling nodded gently.
"Both sides prepare, the match begins!"
As soon as the host Doudou gave the clear command, the atmosphere in the entire central Soul Fighting instantly tensed to its limit!
The seven members of the Thunder Academy team launched their attack suddenly, like seven blue lightning arrows released from a bow, accompanied by crackling and violent lightning!
Lei Tian took the lead, his third and Fourth Soul Ring flashing almost simultaneously. The Thunder Eagle spread its wings and moved so fast that it left afterimages. Its target was the frail Ye Lingling on the edge of the area—it had to deal with the Nine Heart Begonia first!
Almost at the same instant, Lei Dong's fourth Soul Skill, " God-Locking Ring," was unleashed. The eerie halo formed from pure Thunderclap vanished into thin air and, in the next moment, Entanglement tightly around Xuan Ming like a venomous snake!
The lightning ring suddenly tightened, and blinding lightning exploded and surged wildly, emitting a teeth-grinding "sizzling" sound, instantly engulfing Xuan Ming!
"We've succeeded!" Just as a hint of joy rose in the hearts of the Thunder Academy members, the attacks of the other team members came crashing down from all directions. Various Soul Skill shone brightly, weaving together a deadly giant net of lightning, determined to completely tear Xuan Ming in the center apart!
However, just as Lei Tian gathered all his lightning power and grinned maliciously as he blasted it towards the seemingly unsuspecting Ye Lingling—
"Buzz!"
An invisible barrier quietly appeared, effortlessly neutralizing his ferocious attack.
"You chose the wrong opponent." A cold voice quietly sounded behind him.
Lei Tian's pupils constricted sharply, utterly horrified!
Before he could even turn around, an unimaginable force slammed into his back!
"Puff--!"
He was struck head-on by a battering ram, spitting out blood as his body flew uncontrollably forward, crashing heavily onto the hard surface of the Soul Fighting, leaving a glaring bloodstain, and instantly losing his fighting ability.
In the center of the arena, the " God-Locking Ring " that trapped Xuan Ming and was wreaking havoc with lightning—
Xuan Ming simply raised his arm casually!
"Snap!"
The powerful Soul Skill that was enough to trap the Soul King shattered like fragile glass, turning into countless scattered electric fragments.
Lei Dong Dong's confident expression froze instantly, turning into incredulous horror!
Directly in front, Yu Tianxin arrived with the Thunder God's Wrath God, his giant fist, transformed into Dragon Transformation, slamming towards Xuan Ming's face with the force to shatter mountains and split rocks!
From both sides, Lei Mie and Lei Jiuzhong's attacks were also closing in simultaneously, sealing off all escape routes.
At that very moment, the two Black Dragon behind Xuan Ming, which had been silent all along, suddenly moved!
They were no longer mere decorations; like two black lightning bolts ready to devour their prey, their speed exceeding the visual limits of most Soul Master, they pounced on Lei Mie and Lei Jiuzhong on the left and right sides with chilling low roars!
"Roar!"
The ferocious dragon's mouth opened wide, its fangs, gleaming with an eerie light, snapping shut with unparalleled precision!
"Snap! Snap!"
The sickening sound of bones cracking could be clearly heard throughout the venue. Accompanied by the two people's shrill screams, their arms were bitten off, and blood gushed out like a fountain!
Even more terrifying, an extremely domineering black lightning surged wildly into their bodies through the wounds, bringing Destruction paralysis and tearing pain, instantly rendering the two unable to resist. They could only be held tightly by the Black Dragon like rag dolls, twitching in vain.
On the front, Yu Tianxin's dragon fist, which had gathered all its power and was bursting with lightning, was casually grasped by a seemingly fair and slender hand.
All the violent Thunderclap power struck that hand, yet it failed to even stir a ripple, as if a mud ox had entered the sea.
Xuan Ming slightly twisted his wrist.
"Boom!!!"
Yu Tianxin felt an irresistible and terrifying force surge through her, causing her to spin around and be slammed hard onto the Soul Fighting floor!
The deafening roar shook the entire venue, and the hard surface cracked inch by inch around Yu Tianxin, forming a shocking spiderweb-like crater!
His right arm was twisted at a bizarre angle that completely defied physiological structure, clearly indicating that it was completely broken!
"Referee! This is murder!"
The Thunder Academy teachers protested almost immediately, but the referee on the sidelines simply looked at him indifferently and asked, "Do you want to forfeit?"
The teacher's face immediately turned even uglier.
Yu Tianxin had already said before going on stage that no matter what happened on the field, he was not allowed to surrender unless he gave up himself!
"Second Uncle, we can't keep fighting like this! If we keep fighting, Yu Tianxin will be crippled by Xuan Ming!" Yu Tianheng said anxiously.
He had known Xuan Ming for a long time, and he knew all too well how ruthless Xuan Ming could be!
If he had gone on stage alone, it would have been fine, but the fact that he brought Ye Lingling with him means that this battle will be a massacre!
Literal torture!
"Can you stop him?" Yu Xiaogang's face was extremely grim.
Yu Tianxin was his cousin, and he certainly wanted to stop the fight. However, before going on stage, Yu Tianxin had said that unless he died or gave up on his own, no one was allowed to surrender for him!
Yu Luomian is Yu Tianxin's biological grandfather!
But now, this second-in-command of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan has been turned into a cripple by Xuan Ming!
A useless person who needs help with even basic daily life!
Now that Yu Tianxin finally has a chance to face Xuan Ming head-on and take revenge, how could he possibly give it up so easily?
" Xuan Ming!" Yu Tianxin gritted his teeth, enduring the excruciating pain as he stood up. He slammed his left fist into Xuan Ming's chest, and at the same time, his Second Soul Ring lit up, unleashing a dense burst of thick lightning bolts that swept towards Xuan Ming.
Xuan Ming neither dodged nor evaded, letting the punch slam into his chest. The violent lightning exploded, but it failed to cause Xuan Ming the slightest harm.
"Why do you think I would use Colorless Wall for defense?" Xuan Ming asked calmly, looking at the somewhat incredulous Yu Tianxin.
"Because even if I just stand here, your attacks can't hurt me in the slightest."
His current body is no different from that of a pure-blooded true dragon of ten thousand years. With the attacks of these Soul Elder and Soul Ancestor, they can't even break through his defenses.
The Colorless Wall was merely a token of respect he left for these people, and also a way to avoid damaging their clothes.
At least he used a move similar to Self-Created Soul Skill, instead of just relying on his body and crippling them with two slaps.
Chapter 262 will also give you a chance.
Just then, Lu Chen, wielding the Thunder Fork, finally found an opportunity. His Third Soul Ring shone brightly, and the Thunder Fork, brimming with astonishing energy, fiercely stabbed at Xuan Ming's back from the side and rear!
Xuan Ming didn't even turn around, casually tossing aside the hand gripping Yu Tianxin's broken right arm.
Yu Tianxin was swung up like a heavy sandbag, accompanied by a whistling sound, and hit Lu Chen was rushing towards her with perfect accuracy!
"Bang!"
The two screamed as they collided, tumbling and falling a great distance. Yu Tianxin spat out another mouthful of blood, and the thunder fork in Lu Chen's hand flew out of his grasp, clattering to the ground.
Seeing the horrific state of his captain and teammates, Lei Dong's eyes were bloodshot, and he roared in despair and rage, "Fight him to the death!!"
The remaining Thunderclap Academy students, still able to move, were like moths drawn to a flame, recklessly unleashing all their Soul Power and Soul Skill, and the raging Thunderstorm once again engulfed Xuan Ming's figure!
Electricity crackled and thunder roared!
Yet, at the center of that Destruction flash of lightning, the figure remained standing. All the attacks that struck him, aside from exploding into even more dazzling sparks, left no trace.
