Chapter 184

At this moment, Tang San felt rather helpless, because fighting the Netherworld White Tiger alone was even more exhausting than a one-on-one duel with Feng Xiao Tian, after all, the martial soul fusion skill is a combination of two people's soul power, bringing him greater pressure.

His condition right now wasn't great, but fortunately his Blue Silver Grass martial soul hadn't been used yet; although his body felt strained, due to the change of martial soul, his soul power was still fairly abundant at the moment.

Only seeing Tang San flying in the air, he instantly burst forth with four soul rings on his body, and his inner soul power poured out wildly, as if money were no object.

"First soul skill: Entangling!"

"Second martial soul skill: Parasitic!"

"Third soul skill: Spiderweb Binding!"

"Fourth soul skill: Blue Silver Prison!"

The four soul skills were released in succession, endless Blue Silver Grass surged wildly, instantly enveloping the three people below.

The first soul skill, Entangling, though against Soul Ancestor-level soul masters the Blue Silver Grass's first soul skill basically had no effect, yet just as they had just broken free from the Blue Silver Grass entanglement, a Spiderweb Binding already re-controlled one person.

Moreover, the two Blue Silver Prisons that rose up each trapped a person.

Although they were two thousand-year soul skills, the three Soul Ancestors from the Xingluo Royal Academy could break free in at most three seconds.

However, at this moment Tang San's second soul skill, Parasitic, also showed its effect, further slowing their speed of breaking free from the Blue Silver Grass's restraint.

And thus, Tang San, with Dai Mubai and Meng Yiran, charged straight down.

Tang San's right-hand Blue Silver Grass had disappeared, replaced by the Haotian Hammers in his left and right hands; Dai Mubai and Meng Yiran each used their fourth soul skill to lock onto an opponent.

If before they could dodge or defend, Dai Mubai and Meng Yiran's attacks would not be fearsome, but now their movements were restricted, and the three from the Xingluo Royal Academy all turned pale.

Is having twin martial souls this overpowered? Do you completely not care about the consumption of the Blue Silver Grass martial soul?

Going all-in in one wave just to buy time for an attack?

Tang San used the first soul skill of his Haotian Hammer, directly eliminating a Soul Ancestor; Dai Mubai and Meng Yiran each used their fourth soul skill to heavily wound a Soul Ancestor, and Tang San immediately followed up with his Haotian Hammer.

Finally, Tang San, with the support of Dai Mubai and Meng Yiran, secured victory; his consumption was too great, but fortunately, after each match in the finals there is a day of rest.

Moreover, in this battle against the Xingluo Royal Academy he had already used all his trump cards, except for not using his soul bone skill; his combat techniques and fighting style were also fully exposed.

It can be said that the upcoming matches will be even more difficult, and the only chance to turn the tide lies in looking at his last retained trump card—the torso bone of the Stone Armor Bear.

The referee announced Shrek Academy's victory; Dai Mubai's eyes lit up, because his team had defeated Davis's team, meaning he had won back a round, and moreover, he had openly suppressed Davis once.

Because for this match the Xingluo Empire also had many high-ranking officials coming to observe, the purpose being to prepare for future alliances.

Although Davis's power far outweighs Dai Mubai's, after all it's not an all-controlling hand; Dai Mubai's currently displayed strength and team are already sufficient to be a match for Davis.

After all, a team is also part of strength; no emperor is a lone individual, and behind him there are countless forces and a relationship network intertwined.

This match undoubtedly provided plenty of highlights; the only regret is that the Xingluo Royal Academy's such a powerful team actually lost.

Moreover, this is only the second round of the finals; one can imagine how astonishing this year's competition results are.

At this moment, in the resting area of the Spirit Hall Academy team, three young men in embroidered robes coldly watched Shrek Academy retreat amid cheers, their gazes mainly focused on Tang San and Oscar.

Tang San's strength is beyond doubt; it is enough to contend with a high-level Soul King, and unless there is martial soul restraint, a soul master of the same rank could not be his opponent, after all his soul ring configuration is simply shocking to hear.

And the reason Oscar is the focus is because, without him, even if Shrek Academy could win this round, it would absolutely not be so easy.

Only now did everyone realize how terrifying Oscar, this auxiliary-system soul master, is; his soul skills actually include healing, recovery, amplification, and even flight—such rare abilities.

It can be said that, aside from Tang San, Shrek Academy now considers Oscar absolutely the first person they need to eliminate.

As long as Oscar is eliminated, Shrek's combat power aside from Tang San will be reduced by at least half.

Today, aside from Shrek Academy's match, the other institutes' matches have few highlights, because those few strong teams, if they don't meet each other, basically cannot lose.

After today's match ends, the next third-round match is a bye for the second-place teams of the two empire divisions, which also means Shrek Academy has gained three days of rest.

One day tomorrow, one day on the day of the third-round match, and then one day after.

Because a day of rest follows each round's end, this is also why Tang San dares to keep his soul bone unused while risking severe injury to fight the Netherworld White Tiger.

Besides the Soul Battle on the match field, at this moment the Royal Battle Team's resting room is also full of excitement.

Gu Xuan had just brought Zhu Zhuqing back to his room, intending to give her a thorough check for serious injuries, when Du Gu Yan, Ning Rongrong, and Ye Lingling entered.

Originally, after Ye Lingling followed Gu Xuan away, she was caught up by Du Gu Yan and Ning Rongrong, but they hadn't sought out Gu Xuan beforehand; they just wanted to see what Gu Xuan intended to do by bringing Zhu Zhuqing along.

Then they watched helplessly as Gu Xuan brought Zhu Zhuqing into a room……

What the heck?

The three fiancées haven't even slept with Gu Xuan yet, and this damn Zhu Zhuqing just went in?

Gu Xuan had just set down Zhu Zhuqing, and in his hand he was holding a pill, preparing to give it to Gu Xuan to eat, when the three girls burst in.

Du Gu Yan and Ning Rongrong stared at Zhu Zhuqing with tiger-like intensity, while Ye Lingling stood aside with a smile, saying nothing.

She had seen Zhu Zhuqing while following Gu Xuan, and not just once.

Zhu Zhuqing saw three beautiful women, not inferior to herself, rush in, and in an instant the mouth that was about to swallow the pill Gu Xuan handed over froze.

Ye Lingling had seen her, as had Ning Rongrong and Du Gu Yan; after all, Ning Rongrong is a member of the Seven Treasure Team, appearing frequently, and Du Gu Yan, as captain of the Seven Treasure Team, had drawn countless gazes during the awards ceremony of the promotion tournament.

Afterward, although they had seen her from afar in the spectator area, they never had a chance to interact.

And now it seems…… the relationship between these two girls and Elder Brother Gu is probably not simple either……

Zhu Zhuqing doesn't really object to Gu Xuan having a few close female friends, after all, being born into the Zhu family, his father had more than ten women.

What's more, Gu Xuan is such a heaven-chosen prodigy.

Before Gu Xuan could speak, Du Gu Yan smiled and said, 'Little Xuan, won't you introduce us to this little sister?'

Gu Xuan stuffed the pill into Zhu Zhuqing's mouth, his face showing helplessness as he replied, 'Yanzi, looking at your posture, it kind of feels like you're catching us in the act……'

Du Gu Yan and Ning Rongrong exchanged a glance, then Ning Rongrong said, 'Gu Xuan brother, you are currently engaged to us all; even if you have no feelings for this sister, you wouldn't bring her straight to your room, would you?'

Ning Rongrong, this little trickster, her words are tantamount to roasting Gu Xuan over a fire; if you say you have no thoughts about Zhu Zhuqing, then if anything happens later with her, it'll be unclear.

If you admit it, then this damn thing isn't just catching them in bed……

Gu Xuan gave Ning Rongrong a white look, then went up and gave her a knock on the head: 'You're small but crafty!'

Afterward, Gu Xuan looked at Zhu Zhuqing and seriously said, 'I do indeed have some affection for Zhuqing, but not to the point of such an unsightly manner of eating.'

"Moreover, what do you think I am? I haven't even made a move on you three pampered fiancées yet! How could I have that kind of thought about Zhuqing?"

Listening to Gu Xuan's words, Du Gu Yan, Ning Rongrong, and Ye Lingling couldn't help but roll their eyes at Gu Xuan. "Can you be any more shameless?"

However, what Zhu Zhuqing didn't expect was that even though Gu Xuan said that, they showed no sign of getting angry.

Is Brother Gu's charisma really that high?

Wait! What did Brother Gu just say? Do you have thoughts about me? When?

Am I not unrequited love? Is there still a chance?
