Chapter 29: A Crushing Strike Against the Flying Ji Wuchang.
Wang Kaixuan roared, his second spirit ring instantly gleaming, a layer of even thicker fur covering his original skin.
Second spirit skill, White Tiger Transformation!
This spirit ring was obtained from a nearly thousand-year-old white tiger. Although white tigers under ten thousand years old weren't particularly powerful, its compatibility with his spirit was incredibly high.
At this moment, Wang Kaixuan's attributes increased by almost twenty percent in all aspects, including strength and speed. He decided to quickly follow up and completely block Ji Wuchang's retreat.
However, as the saying goes, they underestimated Ji Wuchang!
He wasn't some agility-based spirit master! He had many roles, and coincidentally, attack speed-based spirit master was one of them!
He still remembered the attack speed swordsman in a game from his previous life, nicknamed "Mad Dog" by players. That wasn't just ordinary madness!
Instantly, Ji Wuchang's longsword clashed with Deng Wen's rat paw!
"Clang!" Sparks flew.
Success!
Deng Wen's eyes lit up with joy, for his captain had already appeared behind Ji Wuchang as he parried his attack! A tiger claw suddenly descended!
Deng Wen had personally witnessed this tiger claw shatter a sizable rock!
If such an attack landed on an agility-type Soul Master, it would cripple him in half!
However, before his joy could even settle, Ji Wuchang moved again! The longsword that clashed with his claw flicked, lifting Deng Wen's hand. Instantly, his defenses were wide open!
"Damn it!" Deng Wen finally realized he had underestimated this short fellow. He frantically waved his left hand, trying to slow Ji Wuchang down. But it was too late!
A true swordsman never lets you see his sword in battle! Once you see it, it's the end for you!
Ji Wuchang, sword in hand, flicked Deng Wen's hands up, then twirled the sword in his hand, performing a sword flourish, before the sword landed directly on Deng Wen's neck.
Wang Kaixuan, standing behind him, naturally wouldn't let Ji Wuchang, with his back door wide open and completely unprepared, slip by! His first soul skill flashed instantly, and the tiger claw descending upon Ji Wuchang instantly thickened.
Dai Wenyun appeared in the arena in an instant, carrying Deng Wen in his hand.
Seeing Wang Kaixuan's tiger claw descend, Dai Wenyun's eyes narrowed. He was just about to block the attack for Ji Wuchang and take him out of the arena when he noticed that Ji Wuchang had made another move! His aura exploded instantly, and two soul rings, one yellow and one purple, rose up instantly, the yellow soul ring flashing brightly!
"A thousand-year soul ring!" Dai Wenyun's eyes widened in surprise, and Liu Tao and the two Lan sisters, not far away, exclaimed in astonishment.
Wang Kaixuan remained motionless. His gaze lingered on Ji Wuchang's eyes, and his tiger claw, about to strike, abruptly stopped in mid-air.
Ji Wuchang's first soul skill, Sword Bone Spirit Transformation!
Anyone with less spiritual power than Ji Wuchang would find it nearly impossible to break free on their own. Having lived two lives, Ji Wuchang's spirit was inherently stronger than ordinary people, making it easy for him to control Wang Kaixuan!
He gripped the longsword, placing it directly against Wang Kaixuan's neck, and gestured to Dai Wenyun, indicating that he should take Wang Kaixuan out as well.
Dai Wenyun's lips twitched. Even he hadn't expected Ji Wuchang to deal with Wang Kaixuan in such a simple and brutal way. Wang Kaixuan's eyes widened in disbelief.
How could there be such a monstrous soul skill? And this was only his first soul skill! Wasn't this kid's martial soul that sword? How could this be?
Dai Wenyun was utterly perplexed.
However, even without knowing why, Wang Kaixuan was now completely under Ji Wuchang's control. He had no choice but to take Wang Kaixuan out of the arena as well.
The moment he stepped off the field, the tiger's claw, which hadn't landed before, slammed down on Dai Wenyun:
"I told you to dodge!"
Wang Kaixuan felt the blow and excitedly shouted, only to find himself as if he'd hit a metal plate; the tiger's claw stung painfully.
Looking up, he saw Dai Wenyun staring at him with a displeased expression.
"Eh??? Teacher Dai, it's you?"
Wang Kaixuan asked, bewildered.
"Of course it's me. You had a sword to your throat; if I didn't save you, your head would be rolling on the ground." Dai Wenyun scoffed.
"How could that be! I almost seriously injured that guy!" Wang Kaixuan protested, looking at Ji Wuchang still in the arena.
"Whether you seriously injured him or not, I don't know, but I know that slapped me!" Dai Wenyun gritted his teeth.
Seeing Dai Wenyun's apparent displeasure, Wang Kaixuan shrank back, not daring to speak again. He stared at Ji Wuchang in the arena, utterly perplexed.
Noticing his gaze, Ji Wuchang also looked over. Seemingly to tease him, Ji Wuchang made a funny face.
"Damn, this is outrageous!" Wang Kaixuan was about to stand up when Dai Wenyun slapped him back down: "You're out of the game!"
Helpless, he could only sit there sulking.
Without looking at Wang Kaixuan again, Ji Wuchang shook his head helplessly. When had he become so childish?
At this moment, only Ji Wuchang's group of three and the control-type Soul Master named Liu Tao remained in the arena.
He had thought Liu Tao would willingly step down, but instead of doing so, he activated his two Soul Rings!
The two yellow Soul Rings flashed simultaneously, instantly turning the area where Ji Wuchang and his companions were located into a swamp.
Looking at the foul-smelling swamp, Ji Wuchang's face showed a hint of disgust. His body was slowly sinking due to his weight. The two Lan sisters were in the same situation. Moreover, being trapped in a swamp was something difficult for these sisters to accept.
Didn't they see them looking at Ji Wuchang with pleading eyes?
Ji Wuchang looked at them with amusement. His Martial Soul was a sword, not an airplane; how was he supposed to save them?
After all, they were only twelve years old, and being girls, they struggled frantically. But struggling in a swamp was definitely not a good option.
Their martial souls were hair, but in their eyes, hair was extremely important! How could they let their hair get tainted by the stench of the swamp?
"Um, Teacher Dai, could you please take them out of here?" Ji Wuchang called out to Dai Wenyun outside the arena. Dai Wenyun didn't say much, and with a flash, she appeared beside the two sisters. Her body seemed weightless, standing on them without any effect.
Grabbing one in each hand, she carried them out of the arena. As soon as they appeared, the two didn't even wait for the assessment to end before running to wash off the filth.
Watching Ji Wuchang still slowly sinking in the arena, Wang Kaixuan outside the arena revealed a relieved smile. At this rate, victory was only a matter of time! He had already planned how to mock Ji Wuchang later!
"You're too arrogant! No matter how powerful you are, you're just a Great Soul Master. Letting me create my own arena is really stupid!" Liu Tao began to mock Ji Wuchang after seeing that the battle situation in the arena was almost certain.
He had witnessed Ji Wuchang's reaction firsthand! He did nothing, letting them do as they pleased, as if they were dealing with ordinary people, without the slightest tension!
This was blatant disrespect!
How many children their age could easily control their emotions? Even if they could, it wasn't Liu Tao!
He was furious! He was enraged! He felt Ji Wuchang looked down on them, so now that Ji Wuchang was trapped, Liu Tao felt an immense sense of satisfaction.
Although Ji Wuchang's speed, surpassing Deng Wen's, and his inexplicable ability to eliminate Wang Kaixuan, had shocked him, this was his territory!
Rolling his eyes at Liu Tao, who was venting his dissatisfaction, Ji Wuchang yawned, seemingly unaffected.
Seeing Ji Wuchang still looking so nonchalant, Liu Tao was about to explode with anger:
"Why are you still making that face? You're under my control now! Under my control!"
"Villains die from talking too much," Ji Wuchang replied with only one sentence.
"You!" Liu Tao's eyes widened in shock. He never expected Ji Wuchang to dare mock him like this!
"Second Soul Skill!" Liu Tao stopped talking. He intended to show Ji Wuchang the consequences of underestimating him! His second soul ring flashed instantly!
Liu Tao braced himself with his hands on the ground, and two vine-like plants that looked like snakes shot into the ground, extending wildly. They finally appeared directly below Ji Wuchang.
"Swamp Thorns!" Two sharp-looking plants shot out of the swamp, stabbing fiercely at Ji Wuchang. At this moment, Ji Wuchang was idly playing with his sword. When the so-called Swamp Thorns appeared, his arm trembled!
He slashed at the two plants with a speed that was imperceptible to the naked eye. Like slicing a melon, without any resistance, he sliced the plants in half.
"My Swamp Thorns are not that simple! Let's see how long you can last!" Liu Tao waved his hands from a distance, and the severed pieces miraculously returned to their original state, stabbing at Ji Wuchang again.
With lightning speed, he slashed it off again, no longer wanting to waste any more time. It wasn't that he lacked soul power; he had barely used any except for his first soul skill!
Mainly, he was simply fed up.
Ugh, fighting a bunch of kids was truly pointless. Ji Wuchang pursed his lips, gathering soul power in his feet, and with a sudden stomp, he created a large crater in the swamp beneath his feet!
Using this force, Ji Wuchang's body abruptly rose into the air. Liu Tao, not far away, stared at Ji Wuchang in astonishment.
"You're right, your control range will indeed cause me some trouble. But I can fly!" Ji Wuchang sat cross-legged on his sword, looking at Liu Tao with a mocking expression.
At this moment, he was levitating three meters above the ground using his black sword.
This dramatic turn of events surprised everyone watching the match, who couldn't help but feel sorry for Liu Tao, who remained standing on the ground.
A control-type Soul Master whose Martial Soul's coverage area is limited to the ground or underground is no match for a flying, agility-type Soul Master (Ji Wuchang: No, I'm not). What else could it be but a humiliating defeat?
