Chapter 86: Unleashing Their Full Power - Bai Wangdong and Bai Xiaoxiao's Display of Strength.
The light and shadow above the sky trembled violently, and within the training grounds of the White World's Order, two powerful soul force fluctuations had collided.
[Xiao Xiao and Wang Dong stood facing each other.]
Huo Yuhao stood at the edge of the arena, his right hand suddenly slamming down, his clear shout echoing throughout the arena: "The match begins!"
In an instant, two dazzling beams of light erupted simultaneously in the arena.
[Behind Wang Dong, the wings of the Goddess of Light butterfly unfurled, and swirling blue-purple and gold light created vortexes of energy.]
Before Xiao Xiao, the heavy and ancient Three Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldron emitted a deep hum, firmly rooted to the ground.
Wang Dong made no attempt to probe; he continued with his preferred quick-attack tactic.
The light spirit on his shoulder emitted a clear, melodious chirp, and brilliant golden light transformed into flowing clouds that covered Wang Dong's wings.
"Amplification of Light!" Wang Dong shouted, his figure flashing, leaving a trail of blurry afterimages, and he was almost instantly above Xiao Xiao's head.
His wings were like blades, their sharp edges whistling through the air as he aimed straight for Xiao Xiao's face.
[Xiao Xiao remained frighteningly calm in the face of such a close-range attack.]
She also summoned her own spirit, a small bear that was entirely black but had extremely lively eyes.
["The Cauldron Shakes!" With a roar from the little bear, the Three Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldron instantly split into three.]
Three enormous cauldrons flew out in a triangular formation, carrying an overwhelming and powerful aura, and slammed into Wang Dong, who was in mid-air.
[Wang Dong displayed astonishing flying skills in the air, forcefully twisting his waist and accelerating to dodge three times in succession through the gaps in the giant cauldron.]
In the instant he dodged the attack, he appeared behind Xiao Xiao, his right hand gathering dense light elemental energy, and slammed it hard into Xiao Xiao's back.
As Wang Dong was about to succeed, the soul masters of the underworld couldn't help but hold their breath.
However, Xiao Xiao in the scene revealed a sly smile at this moment.
With a slight twitch of her fingers, the three giant cauldrons that had been flying into the distance instantly teleported back to defend themselves without warning.
At the same time, three more illusory cauldrons appeared out of thin air in front of Xiao Xiao. The six giant cauldrons formed a pincer movement, trapping Wang Dong firmly in the core area.
"We succeeded!" Xiao Xiao said softly.
The giant cauldrons collided and slammed solidly into Wang Dong's chest.
A loud "bang!" echoed, followed by a surge of air.
However, Wang Dong did not vomit blood and fly away as everyone had expected.
At the critical moment, the light sprite on his shoulder activated its second core ability—"Light Protection."
A thick golden light shield forcefully blocked the bombardment from the giant cauldron.
The Soul Masters of the Underworld were completely shocked upon seeing this.
"Amazing! Both of these kids are ridiculously strong!" a veteran Soul Master exclaimed.
"Bai Xiaoxiao may seem innocent and naive, but she's actually full of tricks up her sleeve. The way she deliberately created openings, lured her opponent into a trap, and then closed the net shows her frighteningly high combat intelligence."
"Bai Wangdong is no less accurate," another person countered.
"As long as he doesn't encounter Huo Yuhao's unreasonable mental attacks, Wang Dong's performance on the physical level is simply perfect."
"Whether it's the speed that can tear the air apart or the defensive ability that can instantly block powerful attacks, it's already the ceiling among peers."
The Soul Masters of the Dark World were all amazed, realizing that the two students from the White World were not only of high level, but their solid combat skills also far exceeded their expectations.
[Amidst the sky, the battle reached its climax.]
Using the force of the shockwave from his protective aura, Wang Dong widened the distance again, his gaze becoming extremely serious.
Wang Dong charged forward again, the light sprite on his shoulder beginning to chant obscure incantations.
Suddenly, a blinding white light erupted from Wang Dong's body. The intense light, like a specially designed flashbang, instantly turned the previously clearly visible training ground into a blinding whiteout.
Xiao Xiao's vision was obstructed, and she instinctively closed her eyes.
Wang Dong seized this opportunity, using his sense of airflow to quickly approach Xiao Xiao.
Just when Wang Dong thought victory was assured, Xiao Xiao's aura underwent a dramatic change.
The Three Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldron before her vanished instantly, replaced by a long, emerald-green, crystal-clear flute—the Nine Phoenixes' Auspicious Arrival Flute.
At the same time, Xiao Xiao's second soul spirit emerged.
It was a small phoenix, entirely emerald green, radiating an auspicious aura.
The phoenix circled and danced around Xiao Xiao, bringing with it melodious flute music.
[Wang Dong was halfway through his charge when he suddenly felt the surrounding air become incredibly thick.]
He was horrified to discover that the flow of his soul power had become extremely slow, his once light wings had become incredibly heavy, and his various amplification abilities had been forcibly weakened by at least 60%.
[The flashbang's effect wore off, and Xiao Xiao slowly opened her eyes, a victorious smile on her lips.]
She gave Wang Dong no chance to catch his breath, instantly switching her martial spirit back to the Three Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldron.
["fall!"]
The heavy cauldron slammed into Wang Dong, who had lost his speed advantage.
This time, Wang Dong lost his balance and was sent flying off the edge of the arena.
"Wang Dong is eliminated, Xiao Xiao wins!" Huo Yuhao's voice rang out again.
In the reality of the underworld, a deathly silence fell once again, followed by even more frenzied discussions.
"They turned the tables! They actually got counter-killed!"
"Xiao Xiao's speed in switching martial souls just now was too fast! What's even more outrageous is that her second martial soul also has a spirit? That little phoenix's slowing and weakening effects are simply the bane of offensive types!"
Meanwhile, in a corner of Shrek Academy in the dark world, Hei Huo Yuhao's eyes narrowed into slits with a smile. He turned his head, looked at Hei Wang Dong, whose face had darkened, and leisurely spoke:
"Wang Dong, don't forget our bet."
"You owe me a month's worth of socks, plus the extra month I just added, plus the half-month I lost this time... that's a total of two and a half months' worth of smelly socks. You'd better wash them clean."
"You..." Black Wang Dong's face turned pale with anger, and his originally pink and blue eyes were now burning with fury. He never expected that White Wang Dong, who clearly had such a great advantage, would ultimately lose because of the foundation of twin martial souls.
"Two and a half months... Huo Yuhao, you just wait!" Wang Dong broke down completely, but could only grit his teeth and glare at the white figure in the sky.
[In the scene depicted on the screen, Wang Dong sat on the sidelines, looking dejectedly at Xiao Xiao, who was retracting her martial spirit.]
He seemed somewhat disoriented, protesting loudly, "Xiao Xiao! How did you manage to pull this off? And why did you also get a Soul Spirit as your second Martial Soul? This isn't fair!"
Xiao Xiao put away the little phoenix and asked smugly, "Who says you can't give your second martial soul a spirit? Teacher Zhou Yi said that as long as your mental strength can hold up, you can give as many as you want. Wang Dong, admit defeat!"
"Damn it! I'll definitely win next time!" Wang Dong was furious, but he could only accept reality.
Huo Yuhao walked forward with a gentle smile, bent down, and extended his right hand to Wang Dong, who was sitting on the ground: "Alright, we're teammates. Wang Dong, get up."
Wang Dong looked at Huo Yuhao, then awkwardly reached out and placed his hand on Huo Yuhao's palm.
However, at the very moment their hands touched, the image suddenly froze.
A faint, visible stream of gold and blue light flowed wildly along the palms of their joined hands.
A strange, unprecedented feeling, as if it were shaking their very souls, reverberated wildly between their bodies.
Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong were both stunned.
Their previously calm soul power, at this moment, began to circulate spontaneously through their meridians at an unprecedented speed, as if they had seen a dear relative. It even faintly outlined a blurry butterfly and a phantom of a spiritual eye in the void.
