Chapter 20: Undead Eye, Angelic Realm First Appears

~7 min read 1,250 words

At a glance, the Ning Tian Team has only one member with combat capability, namely Wu Feng with the Red Dragon martial soul.

But only Ning Tian and Wu Feng know that Huo Yuhao's overall strength is great.

A seven‑story Glazed Tile Pagoda suffused with rosy light appears in his hand; it is the continent's top support martial soul, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

Three soul rings—yellow, yellow, and purple—spiral upward.

"The Seven Treasures are named; the first is: Strength!"

"The Seven Treasures are named; the second is: Speed!"

Ning Tian's Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda emits two clusters of colored light, which merge into Wu Feng and Huo Yuhao's bodies.

Both their strength and speed increase by 40% at once! That's the terrifying aspect of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

Then, large red scales cover Wu Feng's body.

He drags a red tail flame and rushes toward Wang Dong.

Their plan is simple: eliminate Wang Dong first, then collectively assault Su Yun Tian.

Wang Dong lifts the corners of his mouth, his winged blade instantly activates, and he engages Wu Feng in melee.

But he becomes increasingly unnerved as the battle goes on; Wu Feng seems to anticipate his every move, leaving him feeling very frustrated.

Seeing this, Su Yun Tian can't help but wonder: could Huo Yuhao's first soul skill still be Mental Probe?

With that in mind, he narrows his eyes, glances at Huo Yuhao, and three pairs of wings unfold behind him, flying toward Huo Yuhao.

At the same time, an Angelic Holy Sword slashes forward.

【7】 But Huo Yuhao flickers like a phantom; with his ghostly evasion plus Ning Tian's support boost, he manages to dodge outright.

But Huo Yuhao flickered like a ghost, Ghost Shadow Trailing plus Ning Tian's support boost actually allowed him to dodge it outright.

Su Yun Tian's eyes widen; clearly he didn't expect to be dodged.

And Huo Yuhao doesn't idle; his second soul ring lights up, a gray glint flashing in his eyes.

From afar, Wang Dong, who is fighting Wu Feng, suddenly feels a needle‑like pain in his head.

In the blink of an eye, Wu Feng is already in front, his dragon claw ignited with flame, slashing at Wang Dong's abdomen.

"Dragon's Fury!"

Seeing this, Su Yun Tian also gives up chasing Huo Yuhao, rushes to Wang Dong's front, releases an Angelic Assault, and a golden shield blocks Wu Feng's Dragon's Fury.

Then he thrusts his right arm, repelling Wu Feng.

"Be careful; I'm going to deal with Huo Yuhao," Su Yun Tian orders, then flies off again.

"Third soul skill!" Su Yun Tian calls out lightly, deploying his third soul skill for the first time.

Golden light flashes; Su Yun Tian is bathed entirely in holy light, looking like a true angel.

"Divine Light!"

The radiant golden holy light shines; the moment the three of Ning Tian are illuminated, they feel their soul power freeze for an instant.

Their own attributes drop rapidly.

Divine Light seals the soul power of any enemy it touches for one second, reducing all attributes by 20%.

If an ally, it briefly restores soul power.

At this point, Huo Yuhao's speed has slowed, but Su Yun Tian's target is no longer him; it's Ning Tian nearby.

In his view, Ning Tian's role is clearly the greatest.

Once Ning Tian falls, Wu Feng nearby will certainly be defeated in a short time.

Seeing Huo Yuhao still trying to charge, Su Yun Tian releases two major soul skills simultaneously.

"Angel's Gaze, Angel's Eye!"

Golden light erupts; Huo Yuhao first feels immobilized, then a beam knocks him back to the edge.

When he looks up again, the blade of Su Yun Tian's Angelic Holy Sword has already landed on Ning Tian's neck.

"Classmate Ning Tian, step down," Su Yun Tian smiles faintly.

Ning Tian says nothing, merely cancels the soul skill he was casting, and walks off the stage with a look of resentment.

After dealing with Ning Tian, just as Su Yun Tian expected, Wu Feng grows weaker with each fight and cannot hold out much longer.

"Next is Huo Yuhao," Su Yun Tian turns, flies over without hesitation, continuously brandishing his Angelic Holy Sword.

Each swing cuts a broad, crescent‑shaped sword aura.

Huo Yuhao can only scramble to dodge.

"No! I can't lose!" At this moment, Huo Yuhao's mind holds only that thought.

"Teacher, help me, I can't lose!" he shouts in his mind, his eyes reddening.

"Sigh…" Ilex sighs, the gray orb trembling violently.

Then Su Yun Tian sees Huo Yuhao pause, his gaze becoming a bit vacant.

A proctor nearby sees an attack about to strike him, about to act, but discovers Huo Yuhao lifts his head.

His eyes turn extremely cold, death's aura emanating from his entire body.

The sword auras approaching him dissolve like mud poured into the sea, gradually fading.

"What a terrifying death aura; this kid is odd..." Yan Shaozhe says, his eyes heavy, voice low.

"Could it be an evil martial soul?" Du Weilun says gravely beside him.

"Not necessarily; this isn't an evil aura. It's like Longhuang Douluo Long Xiaoyao—just death energy at its peak, not meaning it's an evil martial soul."

Longhuang Douluo Long Xiaoyao's martial soul is the Dark Holy Dragon, infinitely close to the ultimate darkness; though it's a dark martial soul, it contains no trace of evil.

"Let's observe; if this kid truly has an evil martial soul, we cannot let him live," Yan Shaozhe says seriously.

After all, he has seen Huo Yuhao's talent; if left unchecked, it would be a disaster for the continent.

On the field.

Huo Yuhao lifts his head, speaking in a voice only he can hear, whispering, "The familiar feeling returns…"

When he finished speaking, a gray soul ring appeared before him.

"Gray soul ring, Yi Laikesi's proxy?" Looking at the ring, Su Yun Tian recalled the whole backstory.

Yi Laikesi has already revived early, so it is estimated that the current Huo Yuhao is no longer the Huo Yuhao he once was.

Not far away, Huo Yuhao said nothing, but with his right hand he formed a void grip toward the sky, and a radiant golden staff, two meters away, materialized in the palm's center.

Its surface was covered with dense intricate patterns, and at the very top of the staff were three gems of different colors, each shining.

Then Huo Yuhao lowered his head, muttering some obscure incantations:

"Wai Bi Ba Bu, Ma Ka Ba Ka, A Lu Ba, Ku Lu Sa!"

After speaking, he raised the staff above his head.

In an instant, the radiant golden staff darkened abruptly, turning gray like the soul ring.

The emitted gray light clung to Huo Yuhao's body, resembling a suit of armor saturated with death energy.

Gray lines also appeared on his face, connecting together.

An invisible pressure burst from his body, and gray light waves suddenly spread.

That was domain power.

Su Yun Tian slightly frowned, surprised that Huo Yuhao still possessed an unused domain.

He had hidden it really well.

Or perhaps, that was Yi Laikesi's domain.

But you have a domain, I have one too!

"Hum—" Golden light waves radiated outward from his body, and the Angel Domain unfolded.

Colliding with Huo Yuhao's gray unnamed domain.

For a moment, everyone was astonished to see that the sky above the assessment arena, originally a deep blue, turned into gold and gray.

The clash between the domains began!
