Reminded by Qi Ling, everyone snapped out of their shock. Now was no longer the time to be stunned, but rather to focus on the competition.
So, the group simultaneously began to summon their Martial Soul, revealing their respective Soul Ring. Apart from Tang San and Ma Hongjun, the other three were all Six-Ring Soul Emperor. Their powerful strength caused the students watching to gasp in astonishment.
Especially Ning Rongrong's Martial Soul, the Dragon-Patterned Glazed Tile Pagoda. Some sharp-eyed students noticed that her Glazed Tile Pagoda actually has nine layers, and when it is activated, there seems to be a series of dragon roars coming from it, which makes people feel clear-headed and refreshed.
Seeing how well everyone had grown, Qi Ling felt very gratified. So she summoned her own Divine Dragon Emperor Martial Soul and revealed her six Soul Ring. However, there was a transparent missing element in the position of the Fifth Soul Ring.
Even so, Qi Ling was still amazing enough. Everyone looked at Qi Ling's Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring and couldn't help but sigh. As expected of a man known as a legend, he easily accomplished what others could not.
Tuoliya and the Hana sisters were overwhelmed with excitement. The look of longing on Tuoliya's face surprised the other knights; when had their commander ever shown such an expression?
Only Ye Lingling remained somewhat calm, but a hint of joy could be seen on her face.
Their Qilin Team captain is indeed invincible!
Once both sides were ready, Zhao Wuji shouted from the sidelines, "The match will last for three incense sticks. Let's begin!"
Immediately, both sides sprang into action. The Golden Sacred Dragon summoned by Flender and the others charged straight at Qi Ling, while the five members of Shrek chose to engage the other Golden Sacred Dragon.
This is the plan that the Grandmaster devised in that short period of time. Since Qi Ling has lost one Soul Ring and 30% of his Soul Power, the correct approach is to take advantage of his weakness and have the Golden Sacred Dragon defeat him first.
Once Qi Ling is defeated, the crisis facing the Golden Sacred Dragon will naturally be resolved. Therefore, the Shrek Five only need to hold off the Golden Sacred Dragon.
The plan is generally correct, but it has only one small flaw.
" Third Soul Skill: Golden Sacred Dragon Armor!" Golden armor covered Qi Ling's body, and at the same time, a " Overbearing Dragon Spear " formed from Soul Power appeared in his hand.
"What makes you think that losing 30% of my Soul Power and my Fifth Soul Ring will make me the weaker party?"
With that, Qi Ling threw the Overbearing Dragon Spear in her hand with all her might, shooting it directly at the Golden Sacred Dragon. It exploded on the dragon's head, hindering its charge and obstructing its vision.
As the race with the strongest physique, the Golden Sacred Dragon is the best among them. If it were not necessary, it would never dodge Qi Ling's attack or give up its charge. This can only mean that Qi Ling's Overbearing Dragon Spear is an attack that even the Golden Sacred Dragon has to be distracted to defend against.
After all, the Overbearing Dragon Spear is one of Qi Ling's strongest single-target attacks. If the Golden Sacred Dragon can ignore it, then there's really no point in fighting.
Taking advantage of the brief pause when the Golden Sacred Dragon stopped, Qi Ling rushed forward, gathering his Soul Power in his right fist, and punched the Golden Sacred Dragon in the chest.
Second Soul Skill: Tyrant Dragon Fist!
A dull thud was heard, and the massive body of the Golden Sacred Dragon was actually forced back a meter by Qi Ling's punch.
However, the Golden Sacred Dragon was known for its formidable defense, and despite the heavy blow, it was unaffected. Instead, it opened its mouth and lunged at Qi Ling.
"Wow, that's tough! No wonder it's the Martial Soul Fusion Skill of the Golden Iron Triangle!" Qi Ling exclaimed as she pushed off with her feet to dodge the Golden Sacred Dragon's attack.
Little did they know, the shock in the hearts of Flender and his companions was even more intense. This kid had actually blocked the Golden Sacred Dragon and even forced it back from the front? Was he even human?
" Xiaogang, don't hold back! I feel like if we don't act now, things will really go wrong!" Flender said.
"Understood!" Yu Xiaogang replied, then controlled Luo Sanpao to launch a Soul Power attack towards Qi Ling.
Qi Ling could easily block such an attack, but unfortunately, Luo Sanpao's attack was not a single shot, but a series of continuous impacts, like cannonballs shooting towards Qi Ling.
"Hey, isn't this going too far? How did we suddenly switch from fighting with cold weapons to fighting with firearms!" Qi Ling said while dodging Luo Sanpao's attacks.
A single attack may not seem like much, but when the number of attacks increases, it becomes a powerful and potentially lethal attack.
Moreover, because each of Luo Sanpao's attacks would cause a pause if hit, the power of the Golden Sacred Dragon would obstruct Qi Ling's Soul Power, so being hit by even one shot would mean the end of everything.
"Damn it, when it comes to Soul Power, I'm not afraid of you!" Qi Ling said, conjuring a huge energy blast in her hand. " Fourth Soul Skill: Gaia Energy Cannon!"
Faced with Qi Ling's attack, Luo Sanpao's Soul Power surge transformed into a wave of light, resisting the massive energy projectile hurtling towards him.
In the end, the Gaia energy blast failed to hit its target and was detonated in mid-air by Luo Sanpao. However, taking advantage of the impact of the explosion, Qi Ling activated the power of her Soul Bone, instantly accelerating to Luo Sanpao's side and then hugging its neck.
"Hey, really? Qi Ling isn't planning to throw Luo Sanpao over his shoulder, is he?" Flender said in surprise, watching Qi Ling's actions, because it seemed that Qi Ling really did intend to give Luo Sanpao an over-the-shoulder throw.
The impossible happened to Qi Ling. Luo Sanpao, who was over ten meters tall, was lifted above Qi Ling's head and then slammed to the ground.
"Boom!" A huge roar came, and everyone felt the ground shaking. Luo Sanpao shook his head and stood up from the ground. Although he did not seem to be injured, his body began to sway.
More importantly, the visual impact of Qi Ling's fall was absolutely astonishing, on a completely different level. The fact that Qi Ling was able to do this demonstrates just how amazing his strength is.
" Xiaogang, if this continues, we're afraid we'll lose!" Flender said. "Let's use that move!"
Liu Erlong exclaimed in surprise, "No way, Flender, you actually need to use the Holy Dragon True Form to deal with a student? That's going too far!"
However, the Grandmaster then agreed, saying, " Qi Ling is no ordinary student, and I believe that even the Holy Dragon True Form might not be able to defeat him! Now, we have no other choice but to use this method."
