Seeing this, the other two immediately took a big step back.
They released their Martial Souls at the same time. Liu Ning's Martial Soul was the Black Elephant, his Soul Power Level was 32, and his Soul Ring Configuration was also two yellow and one purple.
Zhao He's Martial Soul was a defensive tool Martial Soul, the Silver Shield. His Soul Power Level was 31, and his Soul Ring Configuration was also two yellow and one purple.
All three had the optimal Soul Ring Configuration.
Yu Tianheng didn't think much of it. After all, everyone who could enter Heaven Dou Royal Academy to cultivate was a child of an illustrious noble family. With the resources available to the nobility, they could naturally provide their descendants with the best Soul Ring Configuration.
He slowly raised his hand, and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul appeared behind him. Three Soul Rings rose from beneath his feet: two yellow and one purple. His Soul Power Level was 31.
"Get him together! Let's teach this brat what it means to respect his seniors!" Liu Ning shouted.
Zhao He nodded and used the Silver Shield Martial Soul's First Soul Skill, Shield Bash!
A heavy, ancient-looking shield instantly appeared on his left arm. Runes flickered across it, and it radiated a powerful presence. Ancient patterns seemed to flow over its surface, exuding mysterious power.
Zhao He suddenly exerted himself, his leg muscles taut as steel cables as he channeled the strength of his entire body into the shield. Like an enraged bull, he charged at Yu Tianheng, sending clods of earth flying wherever he stepped.
Liu Ning also used his First Soul Skill, Rampaging Elephant Charge!
In an instant, his body underwent an astonishing transformation. His skin took on a thick gray hue, and his muscles bulged high, like a rampaging elephant about to charge. The ground cracked beneath his feet, fissures spreading rapidly like a spiderweb.
With a roar like that of an ancient behemoth, Liu Ning shot toward Yu Tianheng like an arrow loosed from a bow. Air was violently shoved aside in his wake, producing a piercing howl.
The two attacked together, arriving in front of and behind Yu Tianheng at almost the same instant.
Yu Tianheng's face showed disdain at the sight. Mere First Soul Skills weren't worthy of making him lift a hand; a martial artist's protective Gang Qi could easily block them. But this was Heaven Dou Royal Academy, after all, and the Martial Dao had yet to spread. To conceal his true combat strength,
Yu Tianheng had no choice but to use his Martial Soul to fight them.
"Second Soul Skill, Thunderous Might!"
Countless bolts of lightning appeared around Yu Tianheng, then turned into lightning arrows that shot out in every direction.
This Soul Skill was an area attack, well suited to facing a group assault.
Wherever the lightning arrows passed, the air was instantly ionized, filling with a pungent burnt smell. Seeing this, Zhao He hurriedly held his shield across his body and drew on all his Soul Power to reinforce his defense. But the violent lightning still slammed into the shield. The immense impact left both his arms numb and sent him flying. He rolled several times across the ground before barely managing to steady himself, and the runes on the shield's surface had grown dull.
As the lightning arrows closed in, Liu Ning tried to force his way through with the momentum of Rampaging Elephant Charge. But the arrows seemed to have a life of their own, winding tightly around him.
The arrows' power frantically ravaged his body. Liu Ning let out a howl of pain as lightning scorched his gray skin black. His steps faltered, and the force of the thunder finally brought him to a halt, forcing him down on one knee.
At the same time, Yu Tianheng attacked again, using his First Soul Skill, Thunder Dragon Claw.
Lightning wreathed Yu Tianheng's hands as he struck twice in quick succession at Liu Ning and Zhao He.
Two dragon claws formed from lightning shot out from him and struck at the two men.
"Bang! Bang!" Two blows landed.
Liu Ning and Zhao He were sent flying again. This time, unlike before, they fell straight to the ground, unable to fight back.
By now, Chen Feng had climbed to his feet, but the sight left him completely dumbfounded!
What was going on?
Two three-ring Soul Masters had attacked together, yet they had been defeated so easily.
They had been almost completely powerless to fight back.
Were their Martial Souls too trash, or was the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul too strong?
Or was it not just the Martial Soul that was powerful, but Yu Tianheng himself?
As he wondered, Yu Tianheng looked at him, his gaze piercing.
"Gulp!" Chen Feng couldn't help swallowing, then shouted,
"Yu Tianheng, what are you going to do? This is Heaven Dou Royal Academy, not your Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan! You have to follow the rules here. If you attack students without reason, you'll be punished, you-"
Before he could finish, Yu Tianheng struck again. Relying solely on his physical strength, he stepped forward, instantly cracking the hard stone slab beneath his foot, and closed in at tremendous speed.
His right hand moved like lightning as he used the intermediate-grade martial skill Dragon Claw Hand. His palm seemed to be covered in a layer of faintly visible dragon scales that glimmered with a cold sheen. His five fingers were like sharp dragon claws, tearing through the air with a piercing whistle.
Chen Feng's pupils contracted sharply. Before he could react effectively, Yu Tianheng's dragon claw had gripped his shoulder with unerring precision. Then Yu Tianheng's arm tensed, and his immense strength lifted Chen Feng bodily into the air. Chen Feng's feet left the ground, and he struggled in vain, desperately trying with both hands to pry open Yu Tianheng's iron-hard hand.
Yu Tianheng's face was cold, his eyes without a trace of mercy. He exerted force with his arm again, his fingers tightening slightly as he seized Chen Feng by the throat, completely subduing him.
Chen Feng's face instantly flushed bright red. His breathing came fast and hard as he weakly beat at Yu Tianheng's arm and kicked wildly in the air, but it was all in vain.
"A jumping clown like you dares bark at me? Who gave you the nerve? Lei Long?"
"Hmph!" Yu Tianheng snorted coldly. "Go back and tell Lei Long that whatever happens with Lan Lingmeng is her business and has nothing to do with me. But if he can't stand the sight of me and wants to make trouble for me, I'll take him on.
"Also, this time was just a lesson for you.
"If you dare disturb my cultivation again, the consequences are on your own heads!"
"Now take your people and scram." Yu Tianheng tossed Chen Feng onto the ground like a piece of trash.
After hitting the ground, Chen Feng gasped for breath.
By now, a large crowd of students had gathered to watch the spectacle. They pointed at Chen Feng and his companions, occasionally making teasing remarks.
"Whoa, isn't that Chen Feng, a Heaven Dou Grade student? He got beaten so badly by a new student that he didn't even have time to use a Soul Skill. Isn't he a little too trash?"
"Yeah! Three of them couldn't even handle one person. Why the hell are they still cultivating? They might as well go home and inherit their family businesses!"
"It's not that they're too trash. Yu Tianheng is just too strong. Speaking of which, Yu Tianheng truly lives up to his status as the next clan head of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. His strength really is terrifying!"
Hearing these words, Chen Feng's face burned red with humiliation.
He pointed at Yu Tianheng and threatened him. "Yu Tianheng, don't get cocky! We can't beat you, but Young Master Lei can take care of you. If you've got the guts, just you wait!"
