Chapter 135: Holy Light Sacred Dragon

Soon, the personnel from both sides took their positions on the competition platform, facing each other from a distance.

Both sides had no nonsense; they all looked at the referee, silently urging him to announce the start quickly.

With one win and one loss in the first two matches, this match was extremely important for both sides' competitors; they had no thought for pleasantries, only wanting to quickly knock their opponents off the stage to secure victory for their team.

The referee twitched the corner of his mouth, no longer wasting time, and sensibly shouted, 'The match begins.'

The moment the words fell, the burly man standing at the front of the last three from the Fighting Spirit Royal Advanced Soul Master Academy suddenly stepped forward, his physique rapidly becoming burly, two-foot-long claws popping out from both hands, his height reaching about three meters.

His name is Qian Yuan, vice-captain of the starting team of the Fighting Spirit Royal Advanced Soul Master Academy; his martial soul is the Fear Claw Bear, a weakened version of the Darkgold Fear Claw Bear. Though it cannot compare to the mighty Darkgold Fear Claw Bear, it is still a very powerful power-type martial soul, and at the same rank its strength exceeds that of Dai Yaoheng's White Tiger martial soul.

At the same time, a large shield appeared in the hand of the youth beside him; this shield taller than a person gleamed with metallic light, looking extremely hard and possessing extraordinary defensive power.

Fifty-two‑rank Defense System Battle Soul King Chi Hengyu, whose martial soul is the Diamond Giant Shield, is also the sole defense-system soul master of this team.

Finally, the petite girl stepped back, hiding behind the two, as a layer of fluffy fur grew from her body.

Her name is Tang Niu Niu; her martial soul is the raccoon, a purely support-type martial soul.

Tang Niu Niu flicked her small hand, and a white halo spread out, enveloping her two teammates.

The two's aura surged instantly; Qian Yuan strode forward to meet Tang Wulin, who had already rushed to their front.

Tang Wulin's fighting style is clearly pure overwhelming force, and Qian Yuan fears nothing more than this type of opponent.

The first soul ring lit up, covering Qian Yuan's body in a layer of iron‑gray light; he raised his claws and unhesitatingly struck at Tang Wulin.

Facing his attack, Tang Wulin neither dodged nor evaded; golden light flowed in his eyes as he met the claws with a fist.

Clang!

A metallic collision sound rang out; Tang Wulin's body swayed, while Qian Yuan stepped back.

He was instantly startled.

His power was actually suppressed by Tang Wulin? Before he could recover, Tang Wulin's right hand instantly turned into a golden dragon claw, which lunged at his chest.

At the critical moment, Chi Hengyu rushed forward, using his Diamond Giant Shield to block the strike for Qian Yuan.

Boom—

A tremendous booming sound rang out; Chi Hengyu retreated several steps before stopping, his face full of disbelief.

That blow felt nothing like being hit by a fist; he felt as if a siege hammer had struck him, and his shield nearly flew away under the tremendous impact.

Fortunately, this also bought Qian Yuan some time; he repeatedly swung his claws, successfully forcing Tang Wulin back.

At this point they noticed that, unbeknownst when, a golden soul ring on Tang Wulin's body had become two.

The expressions of the last three from the Fighting Spirit Royal Advanced Soul Master Academy instantly turned serious.

They had been watching the situation at the Shrek player's bench, naturally knowing Tang Wulin had only arrived as the second match was nearing its end. Originally they wondered what Tang Wulin was up to, but seeing the extra golden ring made the truth obvious.

This kid had actually used these two days to break through to the second ring; it seems his sudden surge in strength came from absorbing the second soul ring.

In a sense they weren't wrong, but from another perspective they were wildly mistaken.

Bei Bei also stepped forward at this point, asking in a low voice, 'Wulin, which one do you want to take charge of?'

Tang Wulin stared fixedly at Qian Yuan and said, 'Leave that bear to me.'

'Good, I happen to be excellent at dealing with shield‑bearing turtles.'

Bei Bei laughed heartily.

Immediately after, an abrupt change occurred: the dragon scales originally wrapped only around Bei Bei's right arm suddenly spread rapidly over his entire body, the lightning on him turning gold, his refined and easygoing demeanor becoming lofty, exuding an indescribable dominance and tyranny.

This was the trump card he had told Tang Wulin about a few days earlier, the Holy Light Sacred Dragon bloodline hidden deep in his blood.

Originally he found it difficult to mobilize this power; even if he succeeded, the consumption would greatly increase, making sustained use impossible.

However, when fighting side by side with Tang Wulin, a throbbing from deep in his blood told him that fighting alongside Tang Wulin could prolong the awakening time of the Holy Light Sacred Dragon bloodline.

As expected, he now felt an endless surge of power from within; Bei Bei had never felt so exhilarated, and he estimated that at least after finishing this match, the awakened state of the Holy Light Sacred Dragon would not fade.

Having confirmed this, Bei Bei unhesitatingly charged at Chi Hengyu, golden lightning lashing out at him.

Seeing this, Qian Yuan tried to intercept, but a figure surrounded by golden airflow stepped in front of him.

'Your opponent is me.'

'Get out of my way!'

Qian Yuan let out a roar, his first, third, and fifth soul rings flaring simultaneously; his iron‑gray hue first turned bronze, then instantly silver, his already tall body swelling further, his height exceeding 3.5 meters, barely retaining a human shape as he truly became a walking giant bear.

In fact, Qian Yuan's combat style closely resembles Dai Yaoheng's: both use soul skills to strengthen themselves, then overwhelm opponents with terrifying physical prowess; however, unlike Dai Yaoheng's all‑round enhancement, Qian Yuan's leans more toward strength, especially his ten‑thousand‑year fifth soul skill, which can elevate his power to a terrifying level.

Facing Qian Yuan's attack, Tang Wulin did not dare to be careless; his golden blood‑essence soul ring lit up, the Golden Dragon Body enfolded him, and his golden dragon claw met the giant bear's claw.

Boom!

This time Tang Wulin was overpowered in strength; facing Qian Yuan's three soul skills unleashed together, he was still slightly inferior.

However, Qian Yuan also fared poorly; he stared in shock at his arm where it had clashed with Tang Wulin's, seeing marks as if sliced by a blade.

In the instant of their clash, the golden airflow coiling around Tang Wulin's hand seemed to come alive, swiftly wrapping and slicing his arm; had he not reacted quickly, he would not be able to use that arm for a short time.

Even Tang Wulin hadn't expected his newly learned application to work so well; a hint of excitement appeared in his eyes.
