Chapter 3: The Qilin Traverses the Sky, Dai Mubai is Instantly Killed!
The sharp tiger claws, whistling through the air, reached for Su Bai's chest.
Faced with Dai Mubai's attack, Su Bai stood still and did not move.
"Second Soul Skill, Auspicious Qilin Protection!"
The next moment, a phantom of a Qilin appeared behind Su Bai. The phantom of the Qilin instantly possessed Su Bai, forming a solid golden light shield.
Su Bai's defense, attack, and strength attributes increased by 120% in an instant. The golden light shield around him also provided additional resistance to attacks of darkness and evil attributes.
Dai Mubai's tiger claw was blocked by a golden light shield that suddenly appeared half a meter away from Su Bai's chest.
"clang!"
A crisp, metallic clang rang out.
Dai Mubai's sharp claws drew a string of sparks across the light shield, but failed to make any progress.
Dai Mubai felt as if his claws had struck a piece of ancient black iron, making his arm go numb.
A tremendous force of recoil came, and he staggered back several steps before regaining his balance.
How can it be so hard?
Dai Mubai was terrified. He knew very well the power of that claw. Even a defensive Soul Master of the same level would not be able to block it so easily.
Su Bai looked at him and shook her head.
"Too slow."
After speaking, the yellow spirit ring under Su Bai's feet flashed, and then he gently lifted his right foot and stomped down heavily.
"First Soul Skill, Qilin Treads the Sky!"
"boom!"
A golden shockwave, visible to the naked eye, spread rapidly forward in a fan shape from Su Bai's right foot.
The stone slabs on the ground cracked inch by inch, and the shockwave plowed out a deep trench.
Dai Mubai's pupils contracted sharply; he sensed a deadly threat from that golden shockwave.
Without a second thought, Dai Mubai immediately activated his strongest defense.
"Third Soul Skill, White Tiger Vajra Transformation!"
His muscles swelled again, and the golden hair on his body instantly turned into black and white stripes, while his body was covered with a strong golden light.
Dai Mubai's defense, attack, and strength all reached their peak in that instant.
Almost at the same moment he completed the transformation, a golden shockwave rushed towards him.
"Bang!"
Dai Mubai felt as if he had been hit head-on by a raging beast.
With the White Tiger Vajra Transformation buff, Dai Mubai's physical toughness far surpasses that of other Soul Masters of the same level.
He took the shockwave head-on, and the golden light protecting his body was washed away, causing it to flicker. He was forced to retreat five meters before he could barely stop.
His feet had dug two deep furrows in the ground.
Dai Mubai felt a churning sensation in his chest, and a metallic taste rose in his throat, which he forced down.
He braced himself on his knees, breathing heavily, his arm muscles trembling uncontrollably.
How is that possible?
He was level 37, while the other party was only level 35.
His third soul skill was barely able to withstand the opponent's first soul skill.
This can no longer be explained by the difference in spirit rings; it's an absolute crushing defeat at the level of martial spirit!
His Qilin martial spirit should be of far superior quality to his White Tiger.
The applicants and their parents around them were all dumbfounded.
Just moments ago, Dai Mubai was all-powerful, but in the blink of an eye, he was at a disadvantage, and it seemed that he had been defeated quite thoroughly.
Su Bai did not pursue, but simply took a step and walked slowly toward Dai Mubai.
One step, two steps.
Every step felt like it was treading on Dai Mubai's heart, making him feel unprecedented pressure.
"hateful!"
Dai Mubai roared, forcibly suppressing the injuries within his body, and his soul power erupted once more.
He can't lose!
We absolutely cannot afford to lose so badly in front of Zhu Zhuqing!
Dai Mubai had already realized that the female Soul Master in the team who was attracted to him was definitely his fiancée, Zhu Zhuqing.
Only Zhu Zhuqing would come to Soto City to find him, and he absolutely cannot lose face!
"First Soul Skill: White Tiger Protective Barrier!"
A thick white light shield reappeared, overlapping with the golden light of the White Tiger Vajra Transformation on his body, forming a double shield of gold and white.
This is the strongest defense Dai Mubai can currently achieve.
Su Bai stopped less than three meters away from Dai Mubai.
He looked at Dai Mubai's layers of defense, his face expressionless.
"Still too weak."
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Bai raised his right foot again.
The same action happened again, and the yellow century-old soul ring lit up once more.
"First Soul Skill, Qilin Treads the Sky!"
"boom!"
An even more violent golden shockwave swept out once again.
The ground completely cracked, and the rubble was swept up by the shockwave and turned into dust.
Dai Mubai opened his eyes wide and poured all his soul power into the shield in front of him.
"Stop them!"
"Snap!"
The golden shockwave struck the double shields, and a crisp cracking sound rang out.
The white tiger protective barrier surrounding Dai Mubai's body only lasted for less than a second before turning into countless points of light.
The remaining shockwaves, undiminished in power, relentlessly bombarded the White Tiger Vajra Transformation.
"puff!"
Dai Mubai could no longer hold back and spat out a mouthful of blood.
He flew backward like a kite with a broken string, his feet leaving the ground, and finally crashed heavily into the solid wall of Shrek Academy.
The walls were all sunken into a large, human-shaped pit.
Dai Mubai slid down the wall to the ground, and the White Tiger Possession state on his body instantly dissipated, returning him to human form.
His face was pale, his breath was weak, and he had already fainted.
The entire room fell silent.
Everyone was completely stunned by this scene.
Dai Mubai, a level 37 Soul Master and a genius student at Shrek Academy, was defeated twice by a 12-year-old boy using the same Soul Skill.
The second time, it was an instant kill.
This is no longer a battle; it's a one-sided humiliation.
Tang San, standing at the front of the group, clenched his fists tightly.
He repeatedly replayed the battle in his mind.
Su Bai only used two soul skills, one for defense and one for attack.
That defensive soul skill easily blocked Dai Mubai's claw attack.
And that attack soul skill is so domineering that it's unreasonable.
Tang San asked himself, if it were him, could he have blocked that golden shockwave?
Perhaps, using the Purple Demon Eye in combination with Ghostly Shadow Steps could help dodge it.
But if he were to confront them head-on, he had no confidence whatsoever.
Moreover, Su Bai's configuration of yellow, purple, and purple spirit rings completely overturned the theories he learned from his teacher, Yu Xiaogang.
Isn't the limit for the second spirit ring over seven hundred years?
Why is he a thousand years old?
Is the teacher's theory wrong?
The moment this thought crossed Tang San's mind, he became restless.
Xiao Wu's mouth was slightly open, completely forgetting that she was still in line.
She felt it most clearly; when Su Bai used the Qilin Martial Soul, the pressure emanating from his bloodline almost made her want to kneel down.
Is this the power of a mythical beast?
That's incredible.
Dai Mubai's White Tiger Martial Soul is no different from a house cat in front of the Qilin.
