"They'd better both be annihilated, then the championship will be mine!"
Davis, his face still a bit swollen, dreamed happily to himself. He couldn't defeat either Shrek Academy or Spirit Hall's team.
For this match, Shrek Academy sent Ethan (Xu Yunhan), Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, Jiang Zhu, Ma Hongjun, and Tai Long—seven people. One Soul Emperor, three Soul Kings, and three Soul Grandmasters.
Spirit Hall's team, led by Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and Yan, were the main force. Three Soul Kings and four Soul Sects.
"His martial spirit, why does it look like the Evil Eye White Tiger?" Zhu Zhuyun looked at the Three-Eyed White Flying Tiger released by Xu Yunhan and found it incredibly similar to the Evil Eye White Tiger. "He and Zhuqing wouldn't be able to perform martial spirit fusion too, would they? If so, Spirit Hall won't win!"
Davis also had a bad premonition.
Since Xu Yunhan and Zhu Zhuqing hadn't showcased their martial spirit fusion skill, others hadn't thought in that direction. But some people did make the connection, especially those from the Star Luo Empire, who were very familiar with and concerned about the Evil Eye White Tiger and Netherworld Civet's martial spirit fusion skill.
Bibi Dong frowned. She also thought of it and had a premonition that Hu Liena and the others would lose. But Hu Liena and the others hadn't realized this yet.
Of course, Xu Yunhan alone could also defeat Spirit Hall's team. But he wanted to give his teammates a chance to perform, and he also wanted to demonstrate his martial spirit fusion skill with Zhu Zhuqing.
After Shrek Academy's team and Spirit Hall's team each released their martial spirits and displayed their soul rings, the battle began. As for Xu Yunhan's and the others' special soul ring matching, it naturally surprised some who were seeing it for the first time.
The Clash of Martial Spirit Fusion Skills
"Brother, let's deal with Xu Yunhan together." Hu Liena had a bad premonition. "Let's use our martial spirit fusion skill as quickly as possible. I have a bad feeling."
Xie Yue nodded. "They have two support Soul Masters and two Soul Grandmasters. We can send one person to deal with them. Yan will take three people to deal with Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing, holding them off until Nana and I deal with Xu Yunhan and then help you."
Yan smiled. "Don't worry, no problem." This was their strategy.
But they hadn't expected Xu Yunhan and Zhu Zhuqing to disregard conventional tactics and immediately use their martial spirit fusion skill.
Xu Yunhan and Zhu Zhuqing suddenly embraced each other. Their martial spirits appeared, and their soul rings appeared. Both their martial spirits and soul rings quickly merged.
"They can perform martial spirit fusion too!" Hu Liena and the others were very surprised; they hadn't expected it. How were they supposed to fight now? But they didn't concede. Hu Liena and Xie Yue also immediately performed their martial spirit fusion.
Hu Liena's martial spirit was the Demonic Fox, and Xie Yue's martial spirit was the Moon Blade. Their martial spirit fusion skill was called Demon Charm! This martial spirit fusion skill was primarily control-type, with Hu Liena taking the lead in its overall concept. Within the control range of Demon Charm, everyone's senses would be reduced by fifty percent, soul power suppressed by fifty percent, and all actions delayed by fifty percent. Of course, against opponents much stronger than them, it wouldn't achieve such a suppressive effect.
Xu Yunhan and Zhu Zhuqing's martial spirit fusion completed very quickly.
Three-Eyed Netherworld White Tiger.
A colossal Netherworld White Tiger appeared, possessing three eyes and a pair of wings.
"Roar!"
A tremendous roar, accompanied by powerful soul power pressure, made those below Soul Saint realm feel suffocated and tremble with fear.
"This martial spirit fusion skill's power is even greater than a typical Soul Saint's!"
"Isn't that just a Netherworld White Tiger with an extra eye and a pair of wings?"
"Xu Yunhan isn't from the Dai family?"
Many Soul Saints, Soul Douluo, and Titled Douluo were startled by Xu Yunhan and Zhu Zhuqing's martial spirit fusion skill.
"Nana and the others probably can't win," Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan sighed. "This Zhu Zhuqing is from the Zhu family. Could that Xu Yunhan be an illegitimate child of the Dai family?"
Ghost Douluo Gui Mei said, "Whether he is or isn't doesn't matter. They can't join Spirit Hall, so they're likely enemies."
Bibi Dong heard their conversation but said nothing. However, she also suspected whether Xu Yunhan had any connection to the Star Luo Empire's Dai family, and if it was a conspiracy by the Dai family.
After Xu Yunhan and Zhu Zhuqing completed their martial spirit fusion, they didn't rush to attack, waiting for Hu Liena and Xie Yue to complete their martial spirit fusion. Hu Liena and Xie Yue's completed Demon Charm martial spirit fusion skill had power comparable to a powerful Soul Emperor, but it wasn't on the same level as Xu Yunhan and Zhu Zhuqing's martial spirit fusion skill. Still, they had to fight. Demon Charm couldn't suppress the Three-Eyed Netherworld White Tiger at all! It could only take hits.
Before long, the Demon Charm state collapsed. Hu Liena and Xie Yue appeared, both spitting large mouthfuls of blood, their faces deathly pale.
"Damn it!" Yan wanted to rage for their beauty's sake.
"Yan, stop fighting! We concede!" Hu Liena stopped Yan. Continuing to fight would only bring further humiliation; there was no need to force it. It wasn't that they didn't want to win; it was that Xu Yunhan was too monstrous.
A Swift Conclusion and New Powers
Thus, the top three were Shrek Academy, Heaven Water Academy, and Star Luo Imperial Academy.
Originally, there was supposed to be a three-day rest period before the final championship match.
"Our Heaven Water Academy concedes!"
"Star Luo Imperial Academy also concedes."
Davis of Star Luo Imperial Academy feared being beaten by Xu Yunhan again, and potentially even being killed by accident, so he didn't want to risk fighting Xu Yunhan. Since the strength disparity was immense, conceding wasn't shameful. At the same time, Star Luo Imperial Academy also conceded against Heaven Water Academy. Shui Bing'er of Heaven Water Academy was a Soul King, and she and Shui Yue'er also had a martial spirit fusion skill. Davis and the others had no chance of winning.
And so, the final championship match didn't need to be fought. The championship prize was directly awarded. This made Spirit Hall quite awkward. Bibi Dong's expression was not good as she begrudgingly handed the three soul bones to Shrek Academy's team. The Soul Master Grand Competition concluded somewhat hastily.
Xu Yunhan and the others were in high spirits after obtaining the three soul bones.
A fifty-thousand-year Spirit Wisdom Head Soul Bone!
A thirty-thousand-year Bursting Flame Right Arm Soul Bone!
A thirty-thousand-year Rapid Advance Wind-Chasing Left Leg Soul Bone!
The head soul bone was given to Xu Yunhan. After he absorbed it, his mental power greatly increased, and he also gained a mental-type soul bone skill.
The fiery right arm soul bone was given to Liu Erlong. After she absorbed and fused with it, her fire-attribute power increased, and her soul bone skill became Dragon Flame Burst Strike.
The thirty-thousand-year Wind-Chasing Left Leg was given to Zhu Zhuqing, granting her increased speed and the soul bone skill: Galloping Air-Shattering Slash. Galloping Air-Shattering Slash: Upon activation, speed significantly increases. Simultaneously, the left leg condenses soul power and is amplified by the soul bone, transforming into a sharp blade. While moving at high speed towards multiple enemies, the user delivers multiple consecutive slashes with the left leg, making it a close-range area-of-effect attack skill.
Absorbing the soul bones didn't significantly increase their soul power; the soul bone's power was stored within the bone itself and replenished the Soul Master's soul power after consumption.
The three soul bones were the goal of Xu Yunhan and the others in the Soul Master Grand Competition, and they had now obtained them.
Before leaving Spirit City, Flender took Jiang Zhu and Oscar, who had just reached Level 40, on a trip to a soul beast forest to help them acquire their fourth soul rings.
Then, Xu Yunhan and the others returned to the Heaven Dou Empire with the main contingent.
Upon their return, Emperor Xue Ye bestowed generous rewards upon them as champions, and also upon Heaven Water Academy as the second-place winners.
What do you think will be the next major challenge for Ethan and his group, now that the Soul Master Grand Competition is over and they've gained significant power and resources?
