Combination Skill vs. Combination Skill

After steadying Yu Tianheng, Yu Feng sensed danger coming from his left.

"Second Soul Skill, Chasing Wind and Nie Shadow!"

He hurriedly cast a buff on himself and darted away. A dark gleam flashed past, leaving two intersecting claw marks on the ground where he had stood.

At the very rear, Dugu Yan saw this and hurriedly controlled her Martial Soul, which had also evolved into a Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor, to launch a poison attack at Zhu Zhuqing, who had charged into their formation.

"First Soul Skill, Jade Phosphor Purple Poison!"

A green poison mist radiating a dangerous presence sprayed from the mouth of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor behind Dugu Yan, heading straight for Zhu Zhuqing.

But after absorbing an Immortal Herb, Zhu Zhuqing's speed had long since surpassed that of a Soul Ancestor at the same level, let alone an attack from a Soul Elder, even one at level 39.

She simply darted backward, and Dugu Yan's attack missed.

"Damn it, this woman with the big panda is actually so fast! I attacked the moment she landed, and she still managed to dodge."

Seeing her attack miss, Dugu Yan couldn't help marveling at Zhu Zhuqing's speed.

Meanwhile, on the right, Shui Yue'er found an opening in her fight with her opponent and quickly closed to within ten meters of Dugu Yan. A spectral dolphin then shot out, speeding toward Dugu Yan.

Dugu Yan, who only had time to defend herself, quickly raised a Soul Power shield before the speeding spectral dolphin struck her. But in the next instant, she felt neither injury nor a clash of Soul Power, leaving her utterly bewildered.

The Agility Attack System Soul Master with the black panther Martial Soul saw this and was just as baffled. He could only continue fighting Shui Yue'er.

Having regulated his breathing where he stood, Yu Tianheng saw that Shi Mo and Shi Pan had been freed from the ice but were both seriously injured. He waved them to the rear to find the team's healing Soul Master.

Then thunder began to rumble in his hand as he faced Yu Tianshuang and Xue Wu alone.

"You're strong. You're the first person to repel me head-on as a Soul Elder. But you still don't understand the might of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon."

With that, Yu Tianheng vanished from where he stood with a whoosh, like a bolt of lightning. In the next instant, he was fighting Yu Tianshuang at close range amid rolling thunder and lightning.

At the back of the formation, Dugu Yan watched Yu Tianheng being suppressed by Yu Tianshuang in close combat, and her heart couldn't help filling with worry.

"Tian Heng has rarely met his match among those at the same realm. Now that Yu Tianshuang, who's a realm below him, is suppressing him, he must be frantic. I have to find a way to help him."

"Third Soul Skill, Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor Poison!"

The serpent Martial Soul behind Dugu Yan began spewing vast amounts of purple poison mist, which spread across the rear of their formation.

"Yu Feng!"

Hearing her, Yu Feng immediately used a Soul Skill to force Zhu Zhuqing back, then went to stand behind Dugu Yan.

"Third Soul Skill, Wind Rises and Clouds Surge!"

A spiraling windstorm appeared before Yu Feng, blowing every wisp of Dugu Yan's Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor Poison toward Yu Tianshuang's formation.

Seeing this, Yu Tianheng hurriedly broke off his head-on fight with Yu Tianshuang and retreated.

Shui Yue'er, who was fighting Osler and his black panther Martial Soul on the flank, and Zhu Zhuqing also darted back to either side of Yu Tianshuang.

"First Soul Skill, Prismatic Barrier Ice Array!"

Five ice walls appeared in an instant, blocking the deadly poison borne by the gale.

But in the next instant, the people behind the walls discovered to their horror that the purple poison mist was slowly corroding the white ice.

"Looks like this is one of their major trump cards too. Xue Wu, get Winter Snow Sacrificial Dance ready."

Seeing that Yu Tianshuang's ice walls couldn't stop Dugu Yan and Yu Feng's combination skill, Shui Bing'er had no choice but to reveal a trump card.

"Understood!"

At the command, Xue Wu immediately pulled back, went behind Shui Bing'er, and began to dance gracefully.

"Second Soul Skill, Ice Ring Armor!"

After covering Yu Tianshuang, Zhu Zhuqing, and Shui Yue'er at the front in a layer of frost armor, Shui Bing'er said, "Tianshuang, once the ice walls break, help me hold off this combination skill for a while, until Xue Wu is ready."

"Got it, senior sister."

Crack. The people behind the ice walls stood ready as they watched the ice rapidly corrode. Once the last wall had been eaten through, the storm, no longer obstructed, swept toward Yu Tianshuang and the others with its deadly purple poison mist.

The three wearing Ice Ring Armor raised a Soul Power shield at the very front, while Shui Bing'er kept casting Ice Seal in front of them to provide some defense.

The poison-laden gale pushed the three behind the shield steadily backward, while the deadly, alluring purple Serpent Emperor Poison seeped through the Soul Power shield and gradually invaded their bodies. The arms they had crossed in front of themselves were visibly beginning to turn purple.

"Lingling, heal them and dispel the poison. Xue Wu! Aren't you ready yet?"

"Spring returns to be found, withering ends and flourishing begins. First Soul Skill, Spring Splendor, Withering and Flourishing!"

Three purple begonia flowers flew out before Ye Lingling and floated above Yu Tianshuang and the other two, steadily healing their injuries and dispelling the poison in their bodies.

"Ready, Bing'er."

As a six-pointed snowflake array rose beneath Xue Wu's feet, Shui Bing'er watched the three locked in a stalemate with the poison storm. The anxiety finally vanished from her face, replaced by a captivating smile.

"I've long heard how formidable the Heaven Dou Royal Academy Team is. I didn't expect a single combination skill to put us in such a sorry state, but you've already lost. Watch me turn you all into blocks of ice."

"Third Soul Skill, Extreme Freezing Ray!"

Empowered by Winter Snow Sacrificial Dance, Shui Bing'er waved her slender hand, and the Ice Phoenix above her head spat a pillar of light as thick as a bucket at the purple poison storm locked in a stalemate with Yu Tianshuang.

The instant they met, the poison mist froze, then shattered into countless tiny fragments of ice that scattered through the air.

The pillar of light from the Ice Phoenix's mouth continued without losing momentum, sweeping toward the Heaven Dou Royal Academy Team's formation.

"Shi Mo, Shi Pan!"

The two brothers, who had been treated by the healing Soul Master at the rear for some time, had finally recovered from some of their injuries. Hearing Yu Tianheng's words, they hurried forward to put up a defense.

"First Soul Skill, Black Tortoise Shell Wall!"

Two enormous green tortoise shells appeared, shielding the Heaven Dou Royal Academy Team. In the next instant, they met the pillar of light sweeping down from the Ice Phoenix in the sky.

In the distance, a mocking smile appeared on Shui Bing'er's cold, commanding face. "How naive. Did you think two Defense System Soul Masters could stop my Extreme Freezing Ray? Turn into blocks of ice!"

The instant they made contact, the two Defense System Soul Masters, Shi Mo and Shi Pan, were overwhelmed and frozen.

"What? How is that possible?!"

Seeing the two frozen after holding out for less than a second, everyone on the Heaven Dou Royal Academy Team cried out in shock.

"Osler, Yu Feng, help me stop this Soul Skill. Yan'er, get ready to release your serpent poison at their formation."

At his command, the two had no choice but to stand in a row with Yu Tianheng, their faces grave, and forcefully raise a Soul Power shield in front of Dugu Yan, buying her time to release her poison.
