Cao Yu looked at her slightly flushed face with a smile, and then nodded in agreement.
"No problem, little sister, I'll definitely go easy on you."
Xu Tianzhen replied softly, "Okay, thank you very much, big brother."
Seeing that the two wanted to continue talking, the referee, already getting impatient, shouted, "Alright, you two, stop your lovey-dovey talk and get ready for the match!"
"Where..."
After being told off by the referee, Xu Tianzhen became even more embarrassed. She quickly pulled herself back to reality and pretended to look at Cao Yu as if nothing had happened.
With the referee's whistle...
"The match begins!"
Cao Yu simply stood still, letting Xu Tianzhen rush towards him at high speed.
Xu Tianzhen clasped her hands together in front of her chest, flipped them upwards, and made a gesture of interlocking her fingers and holding up the sky. Her not-so-full breasts appeared even larger at this moment.
A blinding light burst forth from her body, and a burst of orange-red light instantly bloomed in the palms of her hands that held the sky above.
Her Soul Ring are two yellow, two purple, and two black. As a direct descendant of the royal family of the Sun Moon Empire, Xu Tianzhen naturally obtained the Sun Moon Inheritance, which is the Sun Martial Soul.
Suddenly, thousands of beams of intense light shot out from the orange-red orbs in Xu Tianzhen's palms, causing everyone present to feel a blur before their eyes, their vision filled with a white haze.
This is her third Soul Skill, Sun Divine Light.
"This girl's pretty serious, huh? Let's see if you can keep up with my pace."
Cao Yu chuckled lightly, then dodged her attack with lightning speed. In a flash, a beam of light several meters wide swept past him.
One could vaguely see Xu Tianzhen's fifth Soul Ring pulsating, like a deadly laser beam.
But seeing Cao Yu constantly darting around in front of her, Xu Tianzhen became a little anxious.
She clasped her hands together, lifted them towards the sky, and a small sun-shaped object was created from them.
This is also her sixth Soul Skill, Sun Gaze.
It's obvious that Xu Tianzhen is about to unleash a powerful move!
The intense golden-red color suddenly contracted inward at an astonishing speed.
As you can see, the surface of the competition platform has been scorched completely, turning a dark red color.
Dark red molten iron began to appear on the ground, slowly flowing down the inner edge of the protective shield. The intense heat even caused the shield to emit heat waves that indicated high temperatures.
The hard steel was melted into molten iron. Although the temperature was very high, it was still slightly inferior to Ma Xiaotao's Phoenix Evil Fire, and even Wu Ming Ming's Golden Crow Fire was a bit stronger than hers.
But how could this temperature compare to the extreme chill of Cao Yu's Ice Martial Soul?
Those present could only see Cao Yu's fifth Soul Ring light up, followed by four whirlwinds with diameters of over five meters appearing on the ground.
These whirlwinds carrying ice and snow were rising rapidly, growing to over twenty meters in just a few seconds.
At this moment, Cao Yu was still continuously injecting Soul Power, and the four already formed extreme cold storms continued to advance towards Xu Tianzhen.
Where the storm passed, the intense heat from the Sun Gaze vanished instantly, the heat dissipated, and the flowing red iron on the ground solidified.
"His ice attribute is so powerful! And how many Martial Soul does this guy have?"
He's absolutely amazing!
Not only is he a Martial Soul Master, but he is also an Level 8 Soul Engineer, and he possesses more than one Martial Soul.
It feels like the prize for the champion of this competition was specially prepared for him.
Xu Tianzhen's Soul Skill was constantly being defeated, and finally the high temperature emanating from the ball of light above her head shrank into a small circle.
The four storms had already surrounded her in the center, waiting for Cao Yu's command to instantly engulf her and freeze her into a perfect ice sculpture.
At this moment, Cao Yu slowly flew to Xu Tianzhen's side and asked, "Are you still going to fight?"
Xu Tianzhen was stunned for a moment, then shook her head and muttered, "I won't fight anymore, I won't fight anymore, little brother, I admit defeat."
Cao Yu glanced at her, then withdrew his Martial Soul, and the four storms on the ground gradually began to disappear.
Xu Tianzhen turned to the referee and said, "We forfeit this Soul Fighting Tournament."
The referee nodded to her before loudly announcing, " Shrek Academy wins!"
" Mingdu Soul Engineering Academy eliminated!"
The cheers in the arena were sparse, as many present did not want to see the Sun Moon Empire's academy end in defeat.
Of course, those who applauded were all loyal fans of the Shrek Academy, and they were naturally happy to see their idol academy win.
After a while, the disappointment on Xu Tianzhen's face vanished, and she looked directly at Cao Yu, her face flushing slightly.
"Hey handsome, can I pursue you?"
Um?
Cao Yu was about to leave the competition stage; after all, with this match over, the Shrek Representative Team could finally take a break.
But to his utter surprise, the girl seemed to have developed feelings for him.
Cao Yu asked, puzzled, "Why?"
"Because you're so handsome, so outstanding, and you're also very gentlemanly."
He did indeed promise to go easy on her, which allowed Xu Tianzhen's naive and innocent side to begin to grow.
She asked again, "Is that alright?"
"It's definitely my appearance that's causing this trouble again," Cao Yu shook his head firmly. "No, goodbye, little sister!"
"I advise you not to like me, you might even hate me later." Cao Yu sighed and walked towards the edge of the arena.
Although Xu Tianzhen is very beautiful and is also a princess of the Sun Moon Empire.
But it was precisely because of this identity that Cao Yu could not do as she wished.
After all, if war breaks out in the future, the royal family of the Sun Moon Empire will be his enemy.
To be fair, the Sun Moon Empire is actually an enemy of every country.
Watching Cao Yu's departing figure, Xu Tianzhen didn't say anything, but turned and left with some sadness.
She kept thinking to herself, "Am I not pretty enough? Why did he reject me without even thinking about it?"
Xu Tianzhen is, after all, a princess of a nation! Is it really that hard for her to pursue someone?
But she wouldn't give up. There's a saying that goes, "A good man is afraid of a persistent woman." She refused to believe she couldn't win him over!
As Xu Tianzhen thought this to herself, she soon clenched her fists with a determined look in her eyes.
She encouraged herself, "I'll definitely win her over, Xu Tianzhen, you have to keep going!"
As for what she was thinking, Cao Yu, who had already left, no longer cared.
Shrek Academy was the first team to advance to the semifinals.
Xuan Zi and the others were naturally very happy to see Cao Yu return. If nothing unexpected happened, the championship would definitely be theirs.
At this moment, Teacher Wang Yan couldn't help but tease, " Little Yu, I think that princess of the Sun Moon Empire seems to have a good impression of you."
"Hey! Look at what you're saying, Teacher Wang Yan, there's no such thing!"
