On the stage, the highly anticipated third individual match is about to begin.
Xiao Wu and Di Qiu'er faced each other from a distance, exchanging a brief glance in mid-air.
As the announcer's resounding voice faded, the soul power of the two surged instantly, and they simultaneously began to release their respective martial souls.
"roar!"
A majestic roar exploded across the arena!
The moment Di Qiu'er's Three-Eyed Golden Lion Martial Soul phantom appeared behind her, an indescribable power of extreme flame and extreme light swept across the entire area like a tsunami!
This pure, extreme dual-attribute pressure instantly made all the Soul Masters with the same attribute Martial Soul among the tens of thousands of spectators present feel an extremely strong sense of oppression!
The feeling was like a commoner encountering a supreme emperor, their soul trembling uncontrollably.
Even Qian Renxue, who was sitting in the VIP section, couldn't help but change her expression at this moment.
It should be noted that her six-winged angel martial soul also possesses extreme attributes.
Therefore, under the collision of these forces of the same origin, Qian Renxue was able to clearly perceive the strength and domineering nature of the other party's attributes.
In the main stands.
Even though Emperor Xueye was still quite a distance away from Di Qiu'er in the center of the arena, he could still clearly feel the heart-palpitating pressure.
He frowned, staring intently at the golden phantom, and asked in a deep voice, "What kind of martial spirit is this?"
"Such powerful light energy, and it even perfectly blends with such pure fire energy!"
The Heaven Dou royal family's inherited martial soul is the Swan Martial Soul, which inherently possesses the attribute of light.
At this moment, facing Di Qiu'er's Three-Eyed Golden Lion, Emperor Xueye could clearly feel that his Swan Martial Soul was being ruthlessly suppressed.
Ning Fengzhi, sitting to the side, also shook his head with a solemn expression and sighed, "Your Majesty, this kind of peculiar martial spirit is something I have never seen before in my life. It is truly unfathomable."
In the preparation area of the Tiandou team.
Dugu Bo, the Poison Douluo who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them.
Feeling the terrifying pressure from the release of the auspicious beast's martial spirit on the arena, he couldn't help but gasp and exclaim in genuine amazement, "What a domineering bloodline!"
Meanwhile, on the arena...
Facing Di Qiu'er, who was exuding an aura of power, Xiao Wu was amazed by the incredible strength that the other party displayed, but she also had absolute confidence in herself. She was by no means weak.
The battle was about to begin, and Xiao Wu immediately launched an attack. Her eyes shone with pink light as she unleashed her second soul skill, Charm, without hesitation!
A strange wave of mental energy instantly struck Di Qiu'er in front of her.
However, at the moment the charm skill hit, the scene that Xiao Wu had anticipated—the opponent being stunned and controlled—did not appear.
A barely perceptible daze appeared in Di Qiu'er's clear eyes for a fleeting moment.
Immediately afterwards, without even using her soul skills, she instantly broke free from Xiao Wu's charm control simply by relying on her own incomparably strong spiritual power!
Upon seeing this, Xiao Wu immediately felt a sense of foreboding: "As expected of a mythical beast that controls the power of the stars and destiny, its spiritual power is indeed ridiculously strong!"
You should know that her current mental strength is much higher than her level 59 soul power!
Even a Soul Saint of level 70 or above, if caught off guard by her full-force charm, would be completely controlled for several seconds.
But now, this seemingly sure-fire attack has been so easily neutralized by Di Qiu'er, which is enough to show the immense and stable nature of Di Qiu'er's mental strength.
Xiao Wu's original tactic was to use her charm to control her opponent unexpectedly.
Then, take the opportunity to teleport to close the distance, and then use the powerful Wind God Kick to deliver a fatal blow to the opponent.
It now appears that this tactical plan has completely failed.
"Since mind control isn't working, we'll just have to go for it directly!"
Xiao Wu gritted her teeth and decided to use teleportation to appear in front of Di Qiu'er and engage in close-quarters combat, a skill she excelled at.
However, seeing the soul power emanating from Xiao Wu, Di Qiu'er's lips inexplicably curled into a sly smile.
Suddenly, the third deep purple soul ring beneath Di Qiu'er rose up and lit up silently.
The next second, the strange golden pattern on her forehead suddenly cracked open, and a vertical pupil emitting a mysterious light suddenly opened!
This is her third soul skill—Eye of Destiny!
The effect is: the third eye briefly opens and instantly locks onto an enemy, causing their luck to plummet for a short period of time, making them plagued by bad luck, their attacks prone to missing inexplicably, and their skills to be prone to serious mistakes!
Sure enough, the moment the Eye of Destiny locked on, Xiao Wu's figure flashed, originally intending to teleport precisely to Di Qiu'er's left side.
But at the very moment of spatial teleportation, this supposedly foolproof teleportation inexplicably suffered a huge spatial deviation error!
With a "whoosh!", Xiao Wu's figure fell from mid-air. She found that she was not next to Di Qiu'er, but almost teleported directly to the edge of the arena!
When she appeared, one foot was already halfway out of bounds on the ring. If she deviated even an inch further, she would be eliminated for going out of bounds.
Fortunately, Xiao Wu's reaction speed in actual combat is very fast. At the critical moment when her body was about to lose balance and fall, she suddenly exerted force in her waist and jumped backward a big step, which brought her back to the safe area of the arena.
Xiao Wu, covered in sweat, patted her heaving chest with relief and gasped for breath, "Whoa! That really scared me to death!"
Then, Xiao Wu raised her head, her eyes filled with curiosity and apprehension, and looked at Di Qiu'er opposite her, asking, "Is this the special effect of your third soul skill? It can even interfere with spatial coordinates, what a strange ability!"
At this moment, in the audience outside, seeing this thrilling scene, Oscar scratched his head with a puzzled look, turned to the master and asked:
"Master, I don't quite understand Di Qiu'er's third soul skill from Blazing Fire Academy. Xiao Wu is a Soul King, how could she make such a big low-level mistake when using teleportation?"
Yu Xiaogang was actually completely baffled, and didn't understand the mystery at all.
However, in order to maintain his image, he could only cough in a mock manner and brace himself to analyze: "Ahem, from my observation, this should be a very rare mental interference skill."
"She must have used her immense mental power to instantly disrupt the opponent's locking accuracy when using spatial soul skills, which is why the teleportation deviated."
On the arena.
When Xiao Wu asked, Di Qiu'er just smiled mischievously and didn't answer directly: "Do you want to know? I'll tell you after this competition is completely over."
Before she could finish speaking, Di Qiu'er gave Xiao Wu no chance to catch her breath, and the first purple soul ring on her body instantly shone!
First Soul Skill: Golden Lion Claw!
Five golden claws, each over a foot long, instantly materialized from Di Qiu'er's fingertips.
These claws are also covered in sizzling, high-temperature flames, making them not only incredibly sharp but also terrifyingly capable of easily tearing through an opponent's soul power defense.
Di Qiu'er lightly touched the ground with her toes, her figure moving like a golden lightning bolt, incredibly fast, closing in on Xiao Wu in the blink of an eye, and fiercely slashing out with a claw!
Faced with the scorching wind rushing towards her, and having just learned from that frightening mistake, Xiao Wu dared not use teleportation to dodge again.
After all, no one knows how long the effect of Di Qiu'er's strange third soul skill, which reduced luck, will last.
If she makes another mistake during the teleportation and teleports herself out of the ring, she'll have nowhere to cry. This loss will be so frustrating.
As the sharp claws came at her, Xiao Wu's eyes narrowed, and her fifth black ten-thousand-year soul ring finally rose up with a roar.
As Xiao Wu activated her fifth soul skill, countless silver spatial blades, barely visible to the naked eye, instantly wrapped around her long, slender legs.
According to Lin Yuan, Xiao Wu's fifth soul skill did not follow her mother's cultivation path to condense the Soft Bone Soul Locking Skill as in the original story.
Instead, it transformed directly into a spatial attribute soul skill with terrifying destructive power, called Spatial Strangulation!
This powerful soul skill needs to be perfectly combined with her agile leg techniques to achieve its maximum cutting effect in actual combat.
It can not only greatly enhance the lethality in close combat, but also, when necessary, convert the power of the legs into a space-based blade launched from a distance to injure the enemy.
Moreover, her sharp spatial blades can be perfectly combined with the wind blades emitted by the Wind God Leg technique she has learned, forming a double strangulation.
However, she didn't reveal or use this trump card when dealing with Huo Wu before because she felt it was unnecessary.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Wu moved like the wind, directly facing Di Qiu'er and using the exquisite moves from the Wind God Leg technique: Wind in the Grass and Gale!
The countless leg shadows, like a raging storm, forcefully blocked Di Qiu'er's ferocious golden lion claws.
Because Xiao Wu's legs are tightly wrapped with spatial blade threads, every time her jade legs kick out, countless tiny but deadly spatial cutting cracks are instantly generated in the area when they collide with the opponent!
This spatial cutting power made Di Qiu'er, who was a mythical beast, feel very uncomfortable, and several shallow bloodstains quickly appeared on her arm.
After several rounds of clashes, Di Qiu'er decided to stop pursuing the matter. Her eyes shone brightly with golden light as she suddenly created distance and seized an excellent opportunity.
Di Qiu'er's fifth black ten-thousand-year soul ring suddenly lit up, and she directly launched her fifth soul skill, Burning Heaven Golden Flame, at Xiao Wu!
"boom!"
Di Qiu'er opened her arms and instantly unleashed a massive golden tsunami that covered half of the arena!
The burning power of this blazing golden flame is outrageously strong. It can not only melt most ordinary defensive soul skills in an instant, but it also has the characteristic of continuously burning the soul power in the enemy's body, like a bone-deep affliction!
Faced with this overwhelming sea of golden fire, the audience in the outer stands gasped in shock.
Everyone could deeply marvel at the power and domineering nature of this fifth soul skill.
Flander said with a solemn expression, "The temperature of this flame is terrifying. Even a high-level Soul Saint standing here, unless he is a pure defensive Soul Master, would definitely be seriously injured by this attack!"
This includes Tang San, Ma Hongjun, Oscar, Dai Mubai, and Yu Xiaogang, among others.
Among them, Ma Hongjun, who possessed the Evil Fire Phoenix Martial Soul, felt it most clearly and deeply. After Di Qiu'er released that ultimate flame Martial Soul, Ma Hongjun could clearly feel that the evil fire in his body was completely suppressed.
He was horrified to discover that he couldn't muster even the slightest fighting spirit when facing the girl on the stage.
Even if they are at the same level of cultivation, it is the same; this is a very intuitive feeling that comes from the depths of their martial soul bloodline.
Looking at the sea of fire that was engulfing everything, some people even closed their eyes in unbearable pain, believing that Xiao Wu would definitely not be able to withstand this attack.
But then, something happened that left everyone dumbfounded!
Suddenly, a dazzling golden light emanated from Xiao Wu, who was in the center of the sea of fire, covering her entire body!
Xiao Wu casually extended her right hand and blocked Di Qiu'er's soul skill without getting hurt!
This is precisely her proud absolute defense, her invincible golden body!
Covered in golden light, Xiao Wu looked through the sea of fire at Di Qiu'er, who seemed slightly surprised, and couldn't help but giggle.
"You didn't expect that, did you? This girl has such a defensive skill!" Xiao Wu boasted proudly.
However, Di Qiu'er on the other side did not show any sense of defeat. Instead, she smiled and asked in a low voice, "Is that so? Your skill is indeed very powerful, but how long can this defensive skill last?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu immediately realized that something was amiss!
She knew very well that her invincible golden body could only be maintained for a short five seconds!
But now, the golden flames released by Di Qiu'er are almost up in five seconds, and this damned flame shows no sign of completely dissipating!
Moreover, the golden flames had a strong adhesive property, clinging tightly to the golden protective shield around her body like glue.
Xiao Wu was shocked: "Could it be that I have to use the Invincible Golden Body a second time in order to block this move?!"
However, in the brief moment that Xiao Wu hesitated, Di Qiu'er would not give her any time to think or react.
The next moment, Di Qiu'er clasped her hands together, and a long spear of light, compressed from pure light power, quickly condensed in her hands!
Holding a long spear, Di Qiu'er swept it directly towards Xiao Wu in the sea of fire with an indomitable spirit!
