Battle Against the Heaven Dou Royal Academy Team
"By the way, my Frost Dragon has developed two Dragon Transformation Soul Skills through cultivation lately. The Dragon Transformation Soul Skill manifested by my right claw is Frost Dragon Claw, a single-target attack that inflicts slowing and freezing. The Soul Skill manifested by my left claw is Frost Raging Dragon Strike, a ranged single-target attack that likewise provides acceleration and inflicts freezing. In the upcoming team battle, I'll mainly rely on close combat and my Dragon Transformation Soul Skills so I can get familiar with these two new abilities in actual combat as soon as possible."
At that moment, a familiar figure flashed past the half-closed door. Ye Lingling happened to be sitting on the sofa by the door, and her heart leaped with secret delight when she caught sight of the departing figure.
"Tianshuang, it's Yan'er."
With that, she rose and went outside, calling out to Dugu Yan ahead of her.
Dugu Yan turned around and ran over, her face alight with excitement. She took Ye Lingling's hands and said coquettishly, "Lingling, I missed you so much! It's been so long since we last saw each other, and you never came to see me."
"I had to cultivate, didn't I? Besides, Heaven Dou Royal Academy is out in the suburbs, and I'm not a noble. Even if I went there, it wouldn't be easy to find you."
"That's true. Sigh, ever since the poison was removed, Grandpa's been making me cultivate every day. I've nearly died of boredom. I was going to visit you at Skywater Academy after this Soul Fight, but I never expected to run into you here. This is wonderful."
The two held hands and caught up for a while, glancing now and then at Yu Tianshuang inside the room.
"Tianshuang, Yan'er's team is taking part in the team battle too. I think they'll be our opponents."
Ye Lingling spoke to Yu Tianshuang after returning to the lounge.
Hearing her, Shui Bing'er walked over with a grave expression. "I know the Heaven Dou Royal Academy Team. Their captain, Yu Tianheng, has the Blue Dot Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul. He's hailed as the strongest of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's younger generation and is the next clan leader. He's extremely powerful."
"If we face them in the team battle, I hope everyone stays sharp and doesn't let their guard down for a moment."
After Shui Bing'er finished, the members of Skywater Academy all looked graver than ever.
Once a staff member told them to enter, they filed into the Soul Fighting Arena. Dugu Yan was standing right there on the opposite side, waving toward Yu Tianshuang.
"Dear spectators, I'm your host, Doudou, and I'll be hosting the next team battle for you."
"First, let's look at the contestants' information. Wow, the Skywater Academy Team actually has six Soul Ancestors! Captain Shui Bing'er's Soul Power is as high as level 44. That's truly astonishing!"
"On the Heaven Dou Royal Academy Team, aside from Captain Yu Tianheng, whose Soul Power has reached level 41, the highest is Vice-Captain Dugu Yan at level 39. Judging by Soul Power Level alone, Skywater Academy seems to have the advantage, but what kind of clash will unfold in the actual battle? Let's all look forward to it."
"Starting now, you have one minute to summon your Martial Souls. You may only fight when I announce the start. Now, release your Martial Souls!"
At host Doudou's call for both sides to release their Martial Souls, the two teams entered battle readiness.
The members of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy Team all sucked in a breath when they saw the Martial Soul Yu Tianshuang released at the front, along with his outrageous purple-black-black Soul Ring Configuration.
"That brat! I had no idea his Soul Ring Configuration was so outrageous. Looks like Tian Heng has met his match."
Yu Tianheng looked at Yu Tianshuang at the very front, particularly at his Martial Soul. For some reason, it always seemed strangely familiar.
But he had never seen him in the clan while growing up, and although his Martial Soul looked remarkably like Yu Tianheng's own Blue Dot Tyrant Dragon, its attribute was wrong.
Then, in the next moment, Yu Tianheng remembered his aunt, that woman whose temper was as fiery as flame.
"Rongrong, buff them. Lingling, be ready to heal and dispel at any time. Tianshuang, Xue Wu, you two attack head-on. Yue'er, Zhu Zhuqing, harass them from the left and right flanks. I'll provide support throughout."
"Understood."
"Nine Treasures Turn Into Glazed Glass. Nine Treasures Have Names: First: Strength, Second: Speed, Third: Soul, Fourth: Defense."
Ning Rongrong was the first to buff everyone. She gave the strength and defense boosts to Yu Tianshuang and Xue Wu, who were attacking head-on. The speed boost went to the team's two Agility Attack System Soul Masters, increasing their speed, while the Soul Power boost went to their captain, Shui Bing'er.
With their buffs in place, Yu Tianshuang and Xue Wu exchanged a glance and charged ahead of everyone else toward the opposing formation.
Halfway there, a dazzling blue sphere of light gathered in Yu Tianshuang's dragon-transformed left hand. He then hurled it with all his strength at the two identical-looking Defense System Soul Masters at the front of the opposing team.
"Ice dragon dives into the depths, dragon roams the four seas, Frost Fury Dragon Strike!"
Seeing this, the two Defense System Soul Masters from Heaven Dou Royal Academy immediately linked elbows, intending to withstand Yu Tianshuang's Dragon Transformation Soul Skill head-on.
So arrogant? You two may be Defense System Soul Masters, but you think you can block my Dragon Transformation Soul Skill without even using a Soul Skill? Naive. I'm not just an ordinary Soul Elder.
Seeing that Heaven Dou Royal Academy's Shi Mo and Shi Pan hadn't even released their Soul Skills, Yu Tianshuang and Xue Wu, charging at the front, exchanged a smile.
But the members of Heaven Dou Royal Academy seemed thoroughly confident in the brothers' defense. They didn't even change formation, preparing to wait until Yu Tianshuang and Xue Wu charged in before surrounding them.
But the Heaven Dou Royal Academy Team had never imagined that when Yu Tianshuang's Dragon Transformation Soul Skill struck Shi Mo and Shi Pan, it would send them flying in an instant, crashing into Yu Tianheng behind them.
Frost began to spread, and before the two could react, they were frozen into ice sculptures. Seeing this, Yu Tianheng hurried away from them.
"How is that possible? It was a Dragon Transformation Soul Skill, and so powerful that it shattered the Shi brothers' defenses in an instant. It seems we underestimated this ice dragon Soul Master."
Pressing the advantage, Xue Wu released her Fourth Soul Skill directly at the still-frozen Shi Mo and Shi Pan.
"Fourth Soul Skill: Snow Satin Hundred Rend Strike!"
Silver-white snow satin fluttered out from behind Xue Wu, transforming into countless tentacles that rained a furious barrage on the two ice sculptures.
Seeing this, Yu Tianheng had no choice but to attack Xue Wu. Otherwise, once she finished unleashing her Soul Skill and the ice sculptures thawed, even if the two were Defense System Soul Masters, they would likely have little fighting strength left.
"First Soul Skill: Thunder Dragon Claw!"
Electric light flashed and hissed around his hand as Yu Tianheng struck at Xue Wu with thunder in his grasp.
"Dragon Transformation Soul Skill: Frost Dragon Claw!"
But how could Yu Tianshuang let him have his way? With an almost identical move, differing only in attribute, Yu Tianshuang went at Yu Tianheng with ice in his grasp.
Boom! Frost and thunder collided head-on. The two locked in a contest of strength, neither willing to yield an inch.
He's only a Soul Elder. His Soul Ring Configuration may be terrifying, but he's actually starting to gain the upper hand over me. How is that possible?
But in the next moment, Yu Tianheng, unwilling to believe what was happening, was sent flying by a swipe of Yu Tianshuang's claw.
Yu Feng hurriedly caught Yu Tianheng in midair, preventing Yu Tianshuang from pursuing him while he had no control over his movement.
