Chapter 35: An Inevitable Battle
The two people beside Dai Huabin also underwent varying degrees of change; once a beast martial soul is unleashed, it will cause the Soul Master's body to undergo varying degrees of change, and in fact, calling it "beastification" would not be an exaggeration.
The black-haired girl on the right, Zhu Lu, saw the color in her pupils deepen, her ears stood up to sharp points, her lithe body became even more slender and powerful, and every finger flicked out like a sharp blade. Her entire person was just like a hunting feline, filled with the agility and wildness inherent to felines.
A special supply of the Dai Family, disciples of the Zhu Family; their relationship is just like that of Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing back in the day.
As for Cui Yajie's change, it was even more peculiar; her martial soul is a Nine-Tailed Fox, and after unleashing it, her entire temperament changed drastically—to use the words most favored by old lechers, she became even more charming. Her long pink hair became even longer and developed large, wavy curls, flying downward like a pink waterfall.
A pair of pupils, crystal clear, her whole body exuding a soul-captivating aura; that feeling was actually somewhat similar to Ma Xiaotao. This kind of temperament, which also possesses a "seductive bone," is a fatal temptation that is completely irresistible to ordinary people.
Looking at the other party's charming face, it must be said that for Su Yu, who is of the same age, it was still quite attractive, but Su Yu did not have too many feelings, merely holding an attitude of appreciating beautiful things.
Looking at the moist, pink fox tail behind Cui Yajie, Su Yu couldn't help but rub his hands; it was indeed fluffy, and she certainly had the potential of a fox spirit.
Cui Yajie's pink pupils immediately found the weakest one, Huo Gua, and gave Huo Gua a sweet smile. Behind her, her First Spirit Ring quietly lit up; that faint light would certainly be overlooked if one did not discover it carefully.
However, her little movements were completely unable to hide from the eyes of Su Yu and the other two. Is she treating Huo Gua's shared cheat as a decoration? Although riding a "cheat-train" is indeed a bit inhumane, there are no inspectors anyway; since everyone is cheating, is it too much for me to ride a cheat-train?
But Huo Yu Hao remained unmoved; a flash of pale golden light in his pupils caused everything to be extinguished into nothingness.
Cui Yajie's body shook; she had suffered a loss on this first strike. She had thought that the weakest, Huo Yu Hao, would be the easiest to take down, but her own First Spirit Skill had actually failed completely.
As fellow spirit-attribute Soul Masters, Huo Gua's First Spirit Ring is a million-year one. With Cui Yajie's hundred-year spirit ring, how could it possibly have any effect on Huo Yu Hao? Furthermore, Huo Gua comes with a "grandpa" and a million-year Tian Meng Ice Silkworm guarding the house; when it comes to spirit-attribute clashes, when has he, Huo Gua, ever conceded?
Yet, in the short time of this exchange, Wang Dong had already collided fiercely with Dai Huabin. The Wing Blade slashed directly onto Dai Huabin's tiger claws, but both sides were shaken back a step, and Dai Huabin's movements remained unaffected.
A black shadow flashed by; Zhu Lu, transformed into a Nether Spirit Cat, arched her body like a hunter and lunged directly at Huo Yu Hao. Although Su Yu admitted that in terms of speed, none of the three of them could compare to the Agility Attack System Zhu Lu, they might not necessarily be unable to wait for the rabbit.
Clang...
The incredibly swift Zhu Lu crashed directly into Su Yu's Mirror; the Mirror subsequently shattered, turning into fragments that filled the sky, directly circling around Huo Yu Hao and protecting him tightly within.
Dai Huabin and the others' strategy was also very simple: defeat the weakest of the opposing side first, and then they could rely on the Nether White Tiger to crush them with absolute strength.
A mass of intense white light instantly gathered toward Dai Huabin's head. Following Dai Huabin's angry roar, a mass of white light flew directly toward Wang Dong, intercepting him.
The opposing Cui Yajie was not just attacking Huo Yu Hao blindly; if one strike did not succeed, she would inevitably choose someone else, such as Wang Dong or Su Yu.
"Wang Dong, don't meet it head-on, dodge the White Tiger Intense Light Wave!"
Following Su Yu's reminder, Wang Dong hurriedly spread his wings and flew horizontally at high speed, dodging this strike from Dai Huabin.
Su Yu was not at all worried that Cui Yajie would launch a sneak attack. With Huo Yu Hao, who also possesses the spirit attribute, holding the line, the opposing Cui Yajie was completely suppressed and held in check. As long as the Nether White Tiger did not appear, Su Yu would definitely have a way to suppress Dai Huabin.
"Second Spirit Skill, Phantom Shadow."
Su Yu's Second Spirit Ring lit up, and the Mirror martial soul slowly appeared behind him. Following a burst of black mist, two identical Su Yus appeared on the field.
The fragments floating around Su Yu were condensed by Su Yu into two short swords. The most bizarre thing was that the movements of the two Su Yus were exactly the same; it was impossible to tell who was the real body.
However, at this moment, the Cui Yajie opposite suddenly let out a muffled groan; she stumbled, and her forward-charging pace faltered, nearly falling directly to the ground.
Clearly, just as she intended to unleash a spirit skill to sneak attack Wang Dong and Su Yu, she was intercepted by Huo Yu Hao.
But after being intercepted, Cui Yajie followed closely behind Dai Huabin. Looking at this scene, Su Yu could roughly guess Cui Yajie's next move. Since that was the case, he would just have to eliminate Zhu Lu while Wang Dong sent Cui Yajie off the arena.
Although Huo Yu Hao's cultivation is not as high as hers, when it comes to the degree of spirit perception, even the Three-Ring Support System Soul Elder Ning Tian could not compare to Huo.
On the other side, the two Su Yus brandished their short swords and headed straight for Zhu Lu. Striking out with over a dozen slashes, combined with the Mirror Reflection of his First Spirit Skill and Huo Yu Hao's Spirit Detection, Su Yu found flaws in Zhu Lu no matter how she attacked. However, Zhu Lu's speed was too fast, and Su Yu simply could not inflict effective damage on her.
After dodging Dai Huabin's White Tiger Intense Light Wave, Wang Dong once again unleashed his Wing Blade, slashing toward Dai Huabin's tiger claws. Although both were Assault System, the two had different focuses.
Although the first exchange allowed Wang Dong to avoid the White Tiger Intense Light Wave, Wang Dong was not a reckless person. Clearly, he must have been confident in restraining Dai Huabin with this strike; otherwise, he would not have chosen close-quarters combat where he did not have the advantage.
But just as Wang Dong and Dai Huabin were about to make contact, Wang Dong suddenly dodged. A faint orange light suddenly appeared on one side of the Wing Blade. Looking at that faint orange light, Dai Huabin also realized that something was wrong.
He stomped heavily on the ground, turned his body, and his First Spirit Skill, White Tiger Body Barrier, suddenly activated. Immediately following, his second spirit skill lit up, and the White Tiger Intense Light Wave was unleashed once more, smashing toward Wang Dong, who had avoided him.
Having the experience of dodging it the first time, it was naturally not difficult to dodge this second White Tiger Intense Light Wave. Wang Dong did not choose to unleash Butterfly Goddess Light to meet it head-on; his body rose rapidly, his wings spread wide, and he opened up distance from Dai Huabin.
