Battle Dai Huabin Again

Battle Dai Huabin Again

As the end of class approached, more and more students exhausted their Soul Power and fell into a state of complete fatigue.

For those students, Wang Yan merely had them rest to the side. His attention remained on the few students still persevering.

At last, only two groups remained in the arena.

They were Tang Wulin's group and Dai Huabin's group.

Their common trait was strength far beyond that of their peers. Even without using Soul Skills, they could easily win, so their Soul Power was depleted much more slowly.

Even so, their Soul Power was now nearly exhausted. They had continued fighting mainly to prove a point.

Seeing that only they remained, Dai Huabin's lips curled into a mocking smile.

"Only us left now. You still don't dare challenge me, coward? Don't tell me you're afraid that losing to me will cost you your position as class monitor?"

In his eyes, he was above them, while Tang Wulin and Huo Yutong were beneath him.

Those beneath him were not worthy of being challenged by someone above them. If there was to be a fight, the other side should be the one to request it.

Tang Wulin ignored him and looked at Huo Yutong instead.

"Yutong, want to beat him up?"

The main reason he had been unwilling to fight Dai Huabin was that he was concerned about Huo Yutong.

Though he was reluctant to admit it, if both sides went all out, Tang Wulin's frontal combat ability was currently slightly inferior to Dai Huabin's.

Even with Huo Yutong's Spiritual Detection assisting him, Dai Huabin had a Soul Grandmaster-level Support Type Soul Master helping him as well. Tang Wulin's chances of winning were not great.

It would not matter if Tang Wulin lost on his own. But if he lost together with Huo Yutong, it would be different. It would be humiliating.

Huo Yutong stared fixedly at Dai Huabin, her gaze frighteningly cold.

"It's fine, Wulin. Go. I definitely won't hold you back."

"Alright."

Having understood Huo Yutong's feelings, Tang Wulin made up his mind as well.

He looked at Dai Huabin again and crooked a finger at him.

"Come on."

Dai Huabin frowned in displeasure.

"What a smug look. Let's see whether you still have that leisure in a moment."

Then, his body swelled, white fur sprouted across him, and sharp claws grew from his hands.

"I'm going in, Qian Ling."

The student he called Qian Ling silently nodded and held up a strange flower in her hands.

A hazy fragrance spread outward, swiftly drifting toward Tang Wulin and the others.

The effect of her Martial Soul was to spread a fragrance that strengthened allies and weakened enemies. It was an exceptionally powerful Control System Martial Soul.

In fact, her Soul Power was second only to Dai Huabin and Zhou Sichen's. She was the top Control System Soul Grandmaster in the class.

This was another important reason Dai Huabin had been able to keep fighting until now. Their team alone had two of the top three Soul Masters in the class. Other groups had no room to resist against them.

Dai Huabin was already formidable in battle. With her assistance, there was no way he could lose to Tang Wulin.

Thinking this, he overlooked one crucial factor.

This battle was not two against one, but two against two.

A muffled groan rang out. Dai Huabin froze for a moment and instinctively looked behind him.

The one who had made the sound was undoubtedly his reliable partner, Qian Ling. She was lying on the ground now, clearly unconscious.

This was...

Dai Huabin whipped his head back around and happened to see the golden light flickering in Huo Yutong's eyes.

This was the second time she had used Soul Impact during the entire class. Combined with Purple Demon Eyes and unleashed at full force, it had instantly defeated a Soul Grandmaster.

The situation was reversed in an instant, becoming a two-on-one battle between Tang Wulin and Huo Yutong against Dai Huabin.

A howling gust rushed toward him. Dai Huabin hurriedly raised his arm to block, barely managing to stop Tang Wulin's attack.

But the price was enormous. Facing Dai Huabin, Tang Wulin did not let down his guard in the slightest. He had used Golden Dragon Claw from the start.

As a result, Dai Huabin was not only knocked flying to the ground, but his entire left arm had also gone numb. It was clearly unusable for the time being.

Dai Huabin's expression changed at once.

During their last battle, before he could clash head-on with Tang Wulin's Golden Dragon Claw, Wang Yan had urgently stopped the fight. He had no idea this thing could be so monstrous.

Its Attack Power was no weaker than his own all-out strike.

Before he could recover from his shock, Tang Wulin's next attack had arrived.

Tang Wulin was not at full strength. With his current Soul Power, Golden Dragon Claw could only last ten seconds.

He had to defeat Dai Huabin within those ten seconds. Otherwise, once they passed, he would become a lamb awaiting slaughter.

Dai Huabin rolled across the ground in a bedraggled state, narrowly evading Tang Wulin's pursuit.

Just as he was about to get up, several strands of Bluesilver Grass glimmering with golden light burst from the ground and tightly bound him.

After Tang Wulin bound Dai Huabin with Bluesilver Grass, he did not waste a single moment. He clenched his right fist and struck at him with all his strength.

At the critical moment, Dai Huabin bit his lower lip. His first and Third Soul Rings lit up at the same time, and he broke free of Tang Wulin's restraints in one burst.

"Urgh!"

Tang Wulin's face paled, and his already limited Soul Power dropped another level.

Yet Dai Huabin was even more anxious. Tang Wulin was not the only one running out of Soul Power; Dai Huabin had little left as well. Using his first and Third Soul Skills simultaneously placed an enormous burden on him.

I have to end this quickly!

At that moment, Tang Wulin and Dai Huabin's thoughts were unexpectedly identical.

Dai Huabin raised his claws and struck ruthlessly at Tang Wulin.

Though he was still too fast for Tang Wulin to react to, fortunately, Huo Yutong was assisting him this time. With her help, he narrowly dodged Dai Huabin's attack.

Even as he evaded, he did not remain idle. Golden Dragon Claw traced a graceful arc and struck Dai Huabin squarely in the chest.

"Cough—hah—"

Dai Huabin felt as if all the air in his lungs had been knocked out. As Tang Wulin raised his dragon claw again, he hardened his heart and opened his mouth wide.

As his Second Soul Ring lit up, astonishing lightning began gathering in his mouth.

Just then, invisible Spiritual Power brushed past him. Dai Huabin felt a moment of dizziness, and his White Tiger Violent Light Wave actually fired off target!

Though it missed Tang Wulin by only a little, that little distance was like an uncrossable chasm.

Having exhausted his Soul Power in that final resistance, Dai Huabin could no longer withstand Tang Wulin. Golden Dragon Claw struck him again, sending him flying to the ground, where he could not even crawl back up.

"Whew."

Seeing this, Tang Wulin finally breathed a sigh of relief and withdrew Golden Dragon Claw.

Then, a "thud" sounded behind him.

When he turned around, Huo Yutong had collapsed onto the ground. Her face was pale, her eyes tightly shut. She had clearly lost consciousness.

After this entire class, she had already had little Soul Power and Spiritual Power left. Then, in this final battle, she had used Soul Impact and Spiritual Interference at full force. She had reached her limit.

Tang Wulin's expression changed drastically. He hurriedly picked up Huo Yutong and said to Wang Yan:

"Teacher, I'm taking Huo Yutong to the infirmary!"

He did not know what had happened to Huo Yutong, but judging from her expression, she was clearly in great pain.

Wang Yan looked at the frantic Tang Wulin, then at Huo Yutong in his arms. The corners of his mouth lifted slightly.

"Alright, go ahead. If it's serious, she doesn't need to come to class this afternoon."

"Thank you, Teacher!"

After thanking him, Tang Wulin rushed out of the Training Ground with the unconscious Huo Yutong in his arms.

Wang Yan shook his head with an amused smile.

"Ah, youth is wonderful."

By his estimation, Huo Yutong had most likely only fainted from overexerting her Spiritual Power. It was not a serious problem.

But since Tang Wulin wanted to take her to the infirmary, he had no reason to object.

It would not only help her recovery, but also bring the two children closer together. Why not?

No one noticed that Dai Huabin, still lying on the ground, was gritting his teeth and staring at Tang Wulin's retreating back with a gaze full of venom as he watched him leave.
