Beneath their feet, the black ball's swinging arm slowly retracted, returning to its body and ceasing its rotation.
After the black sphere wriggled for a moment, Xie Huanyue's head emerged from it. Even though he had transformed into a sphere, he still knew that he had eliminated one of the opposing players.
They're peeking out now to pinpoint the location of the remaining people.
However, the scene instantly stunned him. What had happened? Everyone in the area had vanished.
As two shadows loomed over him, Xie Huanyue looked up, the dazzling light constantly assaulting his eyes.
After his eyes adjusted to the bright light, he could clearly see the two figures; they were Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao.
Wang Dong'er's two Soul Ring were slowly merging together, and the rich aura of light was constantly gathering on the blue-gold butterfly wings. The magnificent wings were gradually being dyed gold, and an arc-shaped slash was slowly condensing above her head.
The ever-increasing power made Xie Huanyue's heart tremble. He identified the direction and transformed into a sphere again, his huge body bouncing on the ground like rubber.
Xie Huanyue's entire body landed on the ground, and under the influence of gravity, it was directly flattened into a pancake shape before quickly bouncing back into the sky.
The giant sphere hurtled directly towards Wang Dong'er, but Xie Huanyue overlooked one thing: besides Wang Dong'er, there was also Xiao Xiao on the field...
Two massive black cauldrons appeared in mid-air, and the instant Xie Huanyue charged forward, the cauldrons positioned themselves one above the other, effectively trapping her in mid-air.
The massive body was being squeezed by the cauldron, the flesh piled up in layers, wrinkled and spherical. The two cauldrons trembled under the rebound, showing signs of breaking free from their restraints.
Xiao Xiao's brows furrowed, and he opened his tiger's mouth, pointing his two slender fingers at the top and bottom of the two cauldrons respectively, and then moved them towards the middle.
The two Soul Suppressing Cauldron reacted immediately, generating a strong attraction between the two cauldrons. The previously trembling cauldrons were once again firmly sandwiched between them, and continued to move inward.
A faint black aura emanated from the two cauldrons, which powerfully attracted each other.
Xie Huanyue inwardly cried out in alarm. His body, now in the shape of a sphere, immediately began to spin, and his first Second Soul Ring flashed simultaneously, determined to break free of his restraints.
Xiao Xiao's large cauldron flew towards the ground. With one step, Xiao Xiao landed in the arena. The second Yellow Soul Ring lit up under her feet, and the large cauldron behind her immediately flew into the air and quickly merged into the two large cauldrons.
The diameter of the two cauldrons suddenly increased by half a circle. Before Xie Huanyue could react, with a "bang," the two cauldrons closed together, trapping him inside.
Then, the two cauldrons merged again, and the diameter of the cauldrons increased once more. Strange runes faintly appeared on the surface of these giant cauldrons, and an indescribable majesty erupted with the loud bang.
Nation's Important Instrument, its Cauldron's Vibration!
Xie Huanyue's enormous body crashed into the Nation's Important Instrument, the giant cauldron, and he was completely stuck inside, his spherical body returning to its original shape.
"Damn it, what kind of Soul Skill is this!" Xie Huanyue, who was sandwiched between the cauldrons, was anxious. He never expected that he, a Three-Ring Soul Elder, would be controlled by a two-ring Soul Grandmaster and unable to move.
He frantically channeled his Soul Power, trying to unleash his most powerful thousand-year-old Soul Skill. However, as soon as his Soul Power surged, the black aura on the giant cauldron continuously eroded his body. Xie Huanyue felt his Soul Power rapidly evaporating, and he couldn't release his Soul Skill at all.
The giant cauldron stood as imposing as a mountain, and he couldn't budge it at all.
Wang Dong'er's aura of light receded, and a golden pillar of light suddenly rose up. The wings of the Light Goddess Butterfly behind her turned completely into a brilliant gold, and the golden arc above her head transformed into a terrifying, enormous crescent-shaped blade of light.
In that instant, the air seemed to be torn apart, and the entire arena was filled with indescribably powerful fluctuations of Soul Power.
The enormous blade of light hurtled towards the giant cauldron.
Xiao Xiao's eyes narrowed, she crossed her hands in front of her, her slender fingers waving slightly in the air, and the giant cauldron slammed down towards the ground.
Xie Huanyue was thrown around inside the cauldron, feeling completely disoriented. The violent tremors made his stomach churn, his body went limp, and he lost all will to resist.
The Xiao Xiao was turned upside down, causing the Xie Huanyue inside to fall directly to the ground, heading straight towards the crescent-shaped light blade in the sky.
" Xiao Xiao, I told you! This person can only be mine!" A ruthless glint flashed in Wang Dong'er's eyes, and the crescent-shaped light blade in mid-air immediately changed direction, bypassing the giant cauldron and attacking Xie Huanyue.
With a flick of Xiao Xiao's hands, the cauldron immediately turned, its surface glowing with intense black light, and suddenly accelerated, its target pointing directly at Xie Huanyue.
" Wang Dong, you need to understand that Yuhao belongs to me, and I should repay him a hundredfold, a thousandfold, for all the harm he suffered!"
Xie Huanyue turned around, just about to breathe a sigh of relief and open his eyes, when a crescent-shaped light blade and a black giant cauldron suddenly slammed towards him.
The intense fluctuations of Soul Power from the light blade terrified him, and he could clearly sense that he was absolutely unable to withstand this attack.
The massive black cauldron, as heavy as a mountain, crushed his flying soul once more, making Xie Huanyue feel as if he couldn't breathe.
Driven by his survival instinct, Xie Huanyue immediately shouted, "Teacher! I surrender... I surrender!" Seeing the attack getting closer and closer, Xie Huanyue's body stiffened, and he was so frightened that he burst into tears.
Having anticipated this, he rushed into the arena without hesitation, grabbed Xie Huanyue, and escaped the range of the two attacks.
"Boom! Boom boom boom!"
A deafening roar came from behind as the two attacks collided, instantly shattering countless rocks and soil that shot towards the surrounding stands.
A student on the stands gasped in surprise. As the earthen stone family attacked with terrifying force, the student stood frozen in place, unable to react. Invisible walls of light appeared on the stands, blocking the attack.
Yan Shaozhe had been paying close attention to the freshman assessment. Sensing the intense fluctuations in Soul Power, he immediately went to the scene and witnessed Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao's performance. He then stepped in to protect the freshmen in the stands.
Looking at Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao on the stage, Yan Shaozhe nodded in satisfaction, "They are truly promising talents."
" Freshman Class One, Huo Yuhao's team wins!" The proctor hurriedly announced the victory.
Xiao Xiao snorted coldly, glared at Wang Dong'er, and seeing Xie Huanyue being rescued, she had no choice but to leave the competition venue and head straight for the infirmary.
" Xiao Xiao! Remember this, from now on, only I can protect Huo Yuhao." Wang Dong'er caught up, grabbed Xiao Xiao's shoulder, and warned her with her eyes.
Xiao Xiao flung Wang Dong'er's hand away, her cold, sharp eyes showing no fear, her aura even surpassing Wang Dong'er's. " Wang Dong, you need to remember that Yuhao is my boyfriend. Only I am the one who will be with him for life. Please understand your place!"
Wang Dong'er clenched her fists tightly, gritting her teeth as she said, "What did you say!"
"Don't you understand? Yuhao, he's mine. You're a grown man, don't interfere in my relationship with Yuhao." Xiao Xiao said coldly.
"A man? Humph! Who told you I'm a man..."
With a wave of her hand, Wang Dong'er's disguise vanished instantly, revealing her long, pinkish-purple hair flowing freely...
