Witnessing the terrifying destructive power of Tai Nuo, everyone was shocked. They wondered what was happening to Qi Ling, who was shrouded in smoke. Xiao Wu cried out and rushed forward, but Tai Nuo's power was too strong, and the terrifying airflow prevented her from breaking through.
" Xiao Wu, don't worry," Tang San said, pulling Xiao Wu aside. "Big Brother's Soul Power hasn't weakened."
Hearing Tang San say that, Xiao Wu calmed down and carefully sensed Qi Ling's Soul Power aura, discovering that it was indeed completely unaffected.
So when the smoke cleared, revealing the true situation inside, everyone was shocked. The destruction caused by Tai Nuo's terrifying Fourth Soul Skill only damaged a semi-circular terrain, while the ground around Qi Ling's feet remained completely unharmed.
"How... how is this possible!" Tai Nuo gasped for breath, his Soul Power nearly exhausted from continuously using his Soul Skill. "How could you be unharmed!"
"Who said I'm unharmed? You gorilla, didn't you see you've messed up my hairstyle?" Qi Ling laughed.
Qi Ling's elegant demeanor drew enthusiastic cheers from all the onlookers. They could clearly see that Qi Ling was a student in their advanced class, and to remain so composed in the face of a Soul King's full-force attack was truly admirable!
Seeing Qi Ling's captivating charm, Tai Long realized just how vast the gap was between him and Qi Ling. How ridiculous that he had even dared to try and compete with her for Xiao Wu was truly overestimating himself.
He knew all too well how astonishing his father's Shock of Strength was; in a crater with a radius of thirty meters, unless one was stronger than him, there was absolutely no chance of survival.
Now, Qi Ling has not only blocked Tai Nuo's attack, but completely suppressed it, preventing Tai Nuo from fully utilizing his attack.
Doesn't this mean that Qi Ling's strength is already above her father's, and even surpasses her father in terms of power?
What Tai Long was thinking was also what Tai Nuo was thinking at this moment, except that Taino saw things more clearly than Tai Long. Qi Ling's Soul Power was still inferior to his own at this moment, and he was able to suppress himself because he used some special method.
In Tai Nuo's view, this method must be related to the ground, which is why the two Soul Skill he used that used the ground as a medium were so easily blocked by him.
If that's the case, then all I need to do is avoid using those two Soul Skill, right?
"Kid, stop trying to pull any tricks. Let's continue. This time, I'm going to make sure you..."
"Sigh, after all this talk and you've been fighting for so long, shouldn't I get my chance to retaliate?" Qi Ling laughed. "Besides, you've been showing off in front of everyone for so long, so beating you now shouldn't be considered shameful for you, right?"
Upon hearing this, Tai Nuo was furious. "So, you're only doing this because you're giving me face?" he thought. He shouted, "Show me what you've got!"
"Then I shall respectfully accept your offer." Qi Ling smiled slightly, and then her figure instantly transformed into a bolt of lightning. The Three Thousand Lightning Movement of the Great Perfection realm had already been activated, and she instantly approached Tai Nuo.
For such power-type Soul Master, even if they don't have Soul Skill focused on defense, their steel-like muscles are already their best defensive means, making them difficult to break through.
But that was just a regular attack. What Qi Ling was about to use was the " Coiling Gold Acupoint Sealing Hand " technique he had just mastered.
Extending her right index finger, Qi Ling swiftly launched attacks on three acupoints on Tai Nuo's body. Tai Nuo felt a sharp pain and immediately swung his hand to attack Qi Ling.
However, for someone of his enormous size, attacking Qi Ling was simply impossible. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Qi Ling came behind him again and struck four acupoints.
After doing all this, Qi Ling smiled and retreated to her original position, while Tai Nuo said contemptuously, "Is this your attack? It's really weak and doesn't do anything to me... Hmm?"
Tai Nuo then uttered a sound of confusion, because he was surprised to find that his right hand had lost all feeling; not only could he not transmit his Soul Power, but he could not even clench his fist.
"What did you do? How did my right hand get like this!" Tai Nuo said in horror. After all, the first reaction of humans to the unknown is fear.
"It's nothing, just a temporary seal on your meridians and nerves. Don't worry, you'll recover quickly," Qi Ling said with a smile. "This should be considered the most dignified way to lose, right? Uncle, you should just go back to where you came from!"
Logically speaking, losing one's right hand is equivalent to losing 60% of a power-type Soul Master's combat power, leaving them with no better option than to admit defeat.
But Tai Nuo was Soul King, and now he was actually going to admit defeat to a Soul Elder? How could he accept that? Besides, he had boasted so confidently before, making such a grand promise. How could he possibly put his pitiful pride like this?
"Damn it, you brat, you think I'll give up like this? No way!" Tai Nuo said, swinging his left fist as he charged at Qi Ling.
Qi Ling sighed helplessly, and after dodging Tai Nuo's attack, she used several pressure point techniques to successfully cripple Tai Nuo's left hand as well.
With his hands unable to exert any force, Tai Nuo was essentially useless. Qi Ling breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Uncle, can you go back now? I really didn't want to bully you anymore."
"You wretched brat, even if you cripple my hands, I still have my legs..." At this point, Tai Nuo paused, realizing that he had chosen to attack Qi Ling directly precisely because he couldn't defeat him on the ground.
"Damn it, but I won't accept it! I won't accept it! Kid, what kind of hero uses despicable means? If you're so capable, then defeat me with strength!" Tai Nuo said, still unwilling to give up.
This time, even Tai Long couldn't stand it anymore. He stopped Tai Nuo and said, "Dad, just admit defeat. You have no chance of winning!"
"Give up? Impossible! Even without his hands and feet, can't I still run him over? Ah--!" Tai Nuo said, charging headfirst at Qi Ling. His fearless spirit earned the admiration of everyone.
Qi Ling helplessly dodged Tai Nuo's attack, but she admired his persistent spirit. So she said, "Alright, alright, uncle, then I'll grant your request and defeat you with my strength."
"Honestly, why do people always make such strange requests, insisting that I punch them?"
Tai Nuo didn't care what Qi Ling said. He had completely gone mad and only knew to keep attacking Qi Ling with his head. If this continued, his mind would probably break down.
"There's no other way. Xiao San, prepare to treat this senior." Qi Ling clenched her right fist helplessly. " Second Soul Skill: Tyrant Dragon Fist!"
