"Hey, long time no see!" As the two groups stood face to face, Qi Ling smiled and said to Ye Mingzhu and Ye Mingyue, "Last time we fought, you should have already broken through to the Soul Elder realm, right? I wonder how much stronger you've become this time?"
Ye Mingzhu and Ye Mingyue snorted coldly. Although they did not respond to Qi Ling's words, the fighting spirit in their eyes told Qi Ling what they meant.
As the team captain, Ye Lan was displeased to see that Qi Ling ignored him and instead greeted Ye Mingzhu and Ye Mingyue first. He then said, " Qi Ling, we will definitely defeat you in this match!"
Qi Ling looked at Ye Lan, who had suddenly spoken, and asked with a polite smile, "Excuse me, who are you?"
Qi Ling's words infuriated Ye Lan. No matter what, Ye Lan was a Soul King, and Qi Ling didn't even remember his name? This was truly an insult!
Actually, Qi Ling wasn't deliberately trying to anger Ye Lan. It was just that Xiao Ye's presence in the Night Raid Team was so strong that people would unintentionally overlook the existence of others, even though he was a Soul King.
Just like how in the Shrek Team, everyone will always remember Tang San first, while in the Qilin Team, everyone will always remember Qi Ling, it's hard for people to remember the brilliance of stars when they are next to the sun.
"You better remember this: my name is Ye Lan, I'm the acting captain of the Night Raid Team, and also the person Captain Night King trusts the most!" Ye Lan said angrily, deliberately emphasizing the words "most trusted".
"Okay, my name is Qi Ling, and I'm the captain and team leader of the Qilin Team! Please take care of me," Qi Ling said with a smile.
After the referee announced the start of the match, both sides immediately summoned their Martial Soul and began their battle for the arena.
In their previous battles against Ye Mingzhu and Ye Mingyue, they used smoke bombs to conceal their movements and obstruct the enemy's vision.
Although neither side is allowed to use items in this match, how could that possibly stop the Night Raid team? Their team has two Support System Soul Master who also serve as Control System Soul Master. Their control skill is the so-called vision steal!
So at the start of the match, both Support System Soul Master simultaneously unleashed their abilities, summoning a large amount of dense fog that spread throughout the arena.
"Hmph! Don't think that you're the only ones who can control the field!" Dugu Yan Lingling sneered, stepped forward, and summoned her own Jade Phosphor Violet Mist to counter the smoke summoned by her opponent.
In an instant, the arena was divided into two distinct parts: one part was occupied by Dugu Yan's Jade Phosphor Violet Mist, and the other part was occupied by the thick fog.
The Night Raid Team was invisible in the thick fog, but unfortunately for them, Qi Ling's Fiery Eyes and Golden Pupils could ignore such obstacles, and he could see the figures of the five main attackers clearly.
Suddenly, two figures burst out of the enemy's smoke and rushed directly into Dugu Yan's Jade Phosphor Violet Mist, heading towards Dugu Yan and the others, completely ignoring the surrounding Jade Phosphor Violet Mist.
"Don't even think about it!" Tuoliya shouted, brandishing her knight's sword as she charged toward the two figures.
"Don't move! Tuoliya!" Qi Ling shouted, stopping Tuoliya from moving.
Although Tuoliya was puzzled as to why Qi Ling wouldn't let him go to save Dugu Yan, obeying Qi Ling's orders was their top priority on the arena, so Tuoliya stopped immediately without any hesitation.
Then, Tuoliya learned why Qi Ling had given such an order. The two figures rushed towards Dugu Yan but did not cause any damage; they simply vanished into thin air.
Qi Ling had experienced this kind of clone technique before, but unfortunately, with her Fiery Eyes and Golden Pupils now evolved to the extreme, no illusion could fool Qi Ling.
"Tch!" Ye Lan muttered under his breath, emerging from the thick fog, then said, "Plan canceled! Ye Feng, Ye Wu, it's up to you!"
Upon receiving the order, the two immediately began to unleash their Martial Soul, and countless darts and Hidden Weapon shot out from the smoke, heading towards the members of the Qilin Team.
These darts are not their props, but rather manifestations of their Martial Soul, so they do not violate the rules.
" Invisible Air!"
Tuoliya summoned his barrier, blocking the entire Qilin Team, rendering the ranged items useless.
First, they use smoke to obscure the enemy's vision, then they use clones combined with ranged attacks to confuse them, and finally, they seize the opportunity to deliver Fatal Strike. This is the most common tactic used by the Night Raid Team.
However, against the Qilin Team, their tried-and-true tactics completely failed, and it seemed that every step they took was countered by the Qilin Team, achieving no results whatsoever.
Just as Ye Lan was biting her nails, worrying about what to do next, Qi Ling suddenly laughed and said, "It seems the current situation is quite troubling for you. Because the smoke isn't spreading, you don't know how to attack?"
"There's no other way. Since that's the case, let's go into the smoke! Luna, it's your turn!"
Upon receiving the order, Luna immediately prepared. After Hua Yimeng and Hua Yidie cast a status effect on her, she leaped into the enemy's smoke.
Although Ye Lan didn't know what Qi Ling was up to, since they had delivered themselves to his doorstep, he had no reason to let them go! So he immediately concealed his presence and quietly attacked Luna.
But to everyone's surprise, Luna, who should have been blind, dodged Ye Lan's attack with incredible accuracy and launched a counterattack at the same time.
Luna, having undergone layers of enhancement, was so powerful that even the Soul King Ye Lan could not withstand her attacks. Coupled with his own lack of preparation, he suffered a great loss in a short time.
Seeing all this, Qi Ling smiled helplessly. Luna's Martial Soul was a cat, and the most powerful cat-type Martial Soul at that, possessing the strongest night vision ability. How could such a dense fog have any effect on her?
More importantly, Luna's Third Soul Skill, Wildness Awakening, not only greatly increases her attack power, but also awakens her wild instincts. In addition to possessing superb combat skills, she can also foresee danger and avoid it in advance.
Therefore, in front of Luna, trying to ambush her becomes a joke, Ye Lan is forced to engage in a direct battle with Luna.
Once it comes to a direct confrontation, even if Ye Lan is a Soul King, defeating Luna is a pipe dream. Luna in her current state is beyond even Qi Ling's ability to withstand; she's a complete powerhouse, her physical condition comparable to Soul Saint. How could anyone possibly stop her?
