Chapter 241: Victory, the Unparalleled Skill Reappears

"What is going on with these fireballs? Why do they make even me feel threatened? Is this the power of a soul skill a Soul King can unleash?" Chrysanthemum Douluo said in shock.

With such powerful fireballs guarding the Scenery Gate, I fear one would need at least the strength of a Spirit Douluo to pass through.

This was clearly supposed to be the flaw of this formation; how did it suddenly become such a powerful attack point?

Nan Feihuang stood alone in the sea of fire at the Scenery Gate, smiling slightly; today, he would be the one guarding this spot, and no one would get through.

And if they could not pass the Scenery Gate, the Eight Gates Formation could not be broken.

In fact, this was what Nan Feihuang had told Xun Yu back then—the flaw in the Eight Gates Formation that he could compensate for.

The Scenery Gate, full name Scenery Scorching Gate, or Scenery Fierce Blazing Gate.

It is a gate that one must avoid fire at; once the Eight Gates Formation is activated, if someone unleashes a fire-attribute attack here, the power of the flames will absorb the power of all the Spirit Masters within the formation to increase itself.

And this increase does not distinguish between friend or foe, and it cannot be controlled.

In other words, once it starts burning here, not only the enemy, but even one's own people cannot enter at will, otherwise they will inevitably be burned until not even their bones remain.

Ning Fengzhi sighed, "Oh, this young girl actually has the talent for Ring Fusion as well; truly impressive."

A light as black as ink radiated from the Feilian Halberd.

But Nan Feihuang was different; he was fire-immune.

As long as they could not get past Nan Feihuang's defensive line, they could not break this Eight Gates Formation!

In normal times, it is unclear whether such a tactic could injure the enemy, but it would certainly burn all of one's own people to death.

Moreover, this Spirit Avatar was far more refined than Tang San's; after all, the soul power gathered here was far greater than it had been at Shrek.

The Feilian Halberd continued to expand, and at the same time, there was the phantom of Lv Lingqi—another Spirit Avatar.

Therefore, no one had ever thought of creating a defensive line at the Scenery Gate using fire attacks.

"Nana, leave the formation quickly, watch out for Lv Lingqi!" Bibi Dong could no longer hold back and used the method of focusing sound into a line to warn her.

Nan Feihuang, standing in the sea of fire holding the Fangtian Halberd, was not only completely unaffected but could still expertly control the flames he created without affecting the other gates.

These flames would also spread to the other gates until everything was burned to ashes.

She had not expected that Gu Lei Royal Academy would change their formation; in this most critical final match, the main attacker was not the captain, Nan Feihuang, but Lv Lingqi.

Hu Liena was terrified; she only turned back after receiving Bibi Dong's warning, but it was already too late. In front of her was the sea of fire created by Nan Feihuang, which even a Title Douluo would fear.

Now, let alone the Demon Charm, if they encountered a Title Douluo who was countered by it, such as the plant-type Chrysanthemum Douluo, and he rushed over rashly, Nan Feihuang could also make him suffer a great deal.

Lv Lingqi's four Spirit Rings rose up and fused into one in the air.

However, while everyone's eyes were on Nan Feihuang, only a few noticed that another young girl's soul power had already condensed to the limit.

At this moment, Lv Lingqi stood at the Injury Gate; the sheer magnitude of the soul power gathered through the formation had already surpassed that of Tang San under the Seven-in-One Fusion Skill from before.

Behind her was the already-formed, super-powerful Spirit Avatar; she had nowhere left to retreat.

"Go, Lingqi!" Nan Feihuang roared.

"(My Lord's victory shall be taken by me.)" Lv Lingqi leaped high, the Feilian Halberd in her hand spinning at high speed.

"It's that move!" Ning Rongrong exclaimed subconsciously. Although it looked slightly different, the soul power fluctuations were very similar. If she wasn't mistaken, it was the same type of move used when Lv Lingqi defeated seven Shrek members alone.

"(Dissipate here, and fly as far away as you can, girl.)" Lv Lingqi's eyes glowed red as she threw the Feilian Halberd down.

This was her second Unparalleled Skill, Sky Unparalleled—Falling Glow Spin!

The Demon Charm's Red Mist Domain was torn apart by the Feilian Halberd.

"Damn it, Full Moon!"

With no other choice, Hu Liena and Xie Yue had to choose the most head-on fighting style to defend against the enemy.

Full Moon was a self-created soul skill developed by Xie Yue. When unleashed, it looked like a white full moon, but it was actually caused by Xie Yue spinning his two Moon Blades at an astonishing speed. Xie Yue could perform it alone, or it could be performed in the Spirit Fusion Skill Demon Charm state. The Full Moon performed in the Demon Charm state was the siblings' strongest move, having once defeated an opponent at the level of a sixty-eighth-level Soul Emperor, and was thus publicly recognized as the strongest skill of the Spirit Hall's younger generation. Because of its powerful might, Full Moon was also known as the "flawless self-created soul skill."

This move was actually very similar to Lv Lingqi's Falling Glow Spin; both were attacks that maximized the slashing power, piercing power, and speed of the weapon through high-speed rotation.

They saw the two spinning blades in mid-air finally collide head-on.

Ding, ding, ding.

The sound of the collision brought sparks flying everywhere, whipping up an incredibly intense whirlwind that caused the bricks and tiles of the entire arena to scatter, the ground to crack, and cracks from the blade strikes to appear everywhere.

"My heavens, is this really just a Soul Master Academy Tournament? The power of the soul skills from both sides in this collision is something even this old man would have to face with full concentration," Jia Chong remarked. It was not his first time seeing a Soul Master Tournament final.

But a final as intense as this was truly the first time he had encountered one.

In fact, at this moment, if Nan Feihuang just stepped in and ambushed the Demon Charm from behind, Lingqi could easily win.

But he knew that Lv Lingqi was proud and arrogant; she would not be satisfied with winning like that.

She believed that her Falling Glow Spin would not lose to a mere Full Moon.

Confidence could turn into power; after all, as a spinning attack technique, her Feilian Halberd had four blades, while the Full Moon only had two.

After multiple collisions, the Moon Blades, having taken more slashes, had already begun to show notches.

"(Victory is in my hands!)" Lv Lingqi silently recited her catchphrase in her heart, using overwhelming power to burst forth the soul power she had condensed in one go.

"Bang!"

After a loud explosion, the collision finally stopped. "Ah!" Two screams came from the sky; the Demon Charm in the air split back into Hu Liena and Xie Yue, falling toward the ground.

The Feilian Halberd was still spinning and charging; if this continued, it would cause a tragedy like Tang San's, and Hu Liena and Xie Yue would inevitably be turned into a pile of minced meat under the Feilian Halberd.

At the critical moment, Lv Lingqi reached out and beckoned, and the spinning Feilian Halberd split apart at the same time.

When Hu Liena and Xie Yue landed, the split blades of the Feilian Halberd fell simultaneously, embedding themselves into the ground less than three centimeters from their heads.

Lingqi was not Tang San; she was not controlled by the Spirit Avatar at all. This move just now made everyone secretly marvel; this young girl's combat proficiency was truly too high.

Even though she was wielding power far beyond her own limits, she was still able to handle it with such ease.

Seeing that her disciples were unharmed, Bibi Dong also felt relieved and sighed, "Referee, announce it; the outcome of this match is decided."

"... Yes, Your Holiness the Pope!" The referee from the Spirit Hall hesitated for only a moment before announcing, "The match is over; the academy that has won the championship is... Gu Lei Royal Academy!!!"
