Chapter 93: The Tug-of-War Between Xu Jiujiu and Ling Luochen

The first choice was clearly more suitable; the difficulty of the second was too great. Although Yi Lao could indeed help achieve it, he himself did not possess the Martial Soul Fusion skill of Huo Gua.

The battle was on the verge of breaking out. Su Yu had not yet made any decisions that would shock the world; he was acting entirely as an ordinary Soul Engineer, though he did not have a cigar in his mouth like He Caitou, nor was he covered from head to toe in cannon barrels.

However, Su Yu knew the convenience of firepower coverage, so apart from the peak fourth-level Energy Gathering Soul Guidance Cannon on his shoulder, the rest were all standard fourth-level Energy Gathering Soul Guidance Cannons. Although the soul power consumed by the two cannons on his shoulders was too astonishing, Su Yu did not want to use them too much.

The shamelessness of Xu Sanshi was something everyone had witnessed. When he raised the Xuanming Tortoise Shell Shield, the people on the opposite side began to be on guard.

They saw the black light on the Xuanming Tortoise Shell Shield in his hand flare up, pointing directly at the direction of Princess Jiujiu, and then he roared toward the sky, "Xuanming Displacement."

It was also at this moment that the light of the Star Crown on Princess Jiujiu's head shone brightly. The third Soul Ring on her body lit up, and a powerful golden pillar of light shot into the sky.

The interior of this golden pillar of light was entirely presented as a golden mist, with specks of starlight circling and rising within it, looking extremely strange. From the outside, it was impossible to judge the effect of this soul skill.

Good fellow, this feint directly baited out a skill; what a talent. It was fortunate that it hadn't reached the level where I only used a basic attack, but he used a whole combo and even burned his Flash and Ghost.

On the side of Shrek Academy, they had already launched a charge at the first opportunity, with Ma Xiaotao in the lead, followed closely by Dai Yaoheng and Bei Bei.

However, their charge did not last long. Bei Bei was matched against the lightning-type Soul King Chen Xiaojie, Dai Yaoheng was intercepted by Dugu Shangshan, and Ma Xiaotao was blocked by Huang Heyun.

Behind them, there were still two female Soul Kings of the Maple Red Dual Control waiting in the wings. If it were just like this, the three of them would be enough to end this match, but the reality was not as simple as they thought.

At the same time, the ice staff of Ling Luochen had already been summoned into her hand. The ice staff held high above her head emitted a dense ice mist, shrouding Xu Sanshi, herself, Huo Yuhao, and Su Yu within it. Moreover, this ice mist was spreading to both sides at an astonishing speed, forming a huge arc that faintly clamped toward the opponents. The figures of the four of them were completely hidden within the ice mist.

Su Yu was already completely hidden within it, and at the same time, Su Yu quietly appeared behind Huo Yuhao. Huo Yuhao also activated the Simulation Soul Skill, making Su Yu's figure disappear from his side.

A bright starlight was bestowed upon the members of Di'ao Academy. Regarding the Star Crown Sect, everyone might be unfamiliar, but if the Spirit Hall were mentioned, everyone would definitely have an impression.

The Star Crown Sect was also one of the forces of the Spirit Hall. The fact that a power could still possess such great strength after the collapse of the Spirit Hall side-handedly showed just how powerful the Spirit Hall was back then. Excluding the battle of the gods against gods back then, the number of Title Douluo of the Spirit Hall was also terrifying.

If it weren't for the fact that Tang San was too powerful after becoming a god, and those who hadn't become gods simply couldn't compete with him, otherwise, the many Title Douluo of the Spirit Hall back then would have just let Tang San walk to the end, and even left him alone, letting him become a god...

Su Yu was still dutifully doing what a Soul Engineer should do. His purpose for splitting up was very clear: aiming at Xu Jiujiu to strike, but his Soul Guidance Ray simply could not break through Xu Jiujiu's Star Protection. Even if he broke through her defense, it would be blocked by the Defense System Soul King beside her.

Su Yu's performance in this match had no highlights at all. Even Xu Jiujiu looked at Su Yu with contempt, the arrogance in those eyes not being concealed in the slightest.

However, little did she know that the real Su Yu had long since disappeared from their field of vision. Yet, it was precisely because Su Yu had no outstanding performance at all that the members of Di'ao Academy did not focus on Su Yu at all, but instead paid extra attention to Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yaoheng.

Under the amplification of Xu Jiujiu's Star Radiance Art, most of the attacks launched by Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yaoheng were blocked and simply could not cause effective damage. As long as these two main attackers were dealt with in a short time, this battle would basically not stir up any more waves.

"Senior Sister Ma, attack with full force, don't worry about anything. Yu Hao, amplify Senior Sister Ling Luochen with all your might. Senior Sister Ling Luochen, also attack with full force; you must ensure our absolute suppression."

Su Yu's voice came to their ears. With Su Yu's decision, they now had no worries. Although Su Yu really couldn't intervene in this match, the only thing Su Yu could do now was tactical analysis.

At least in their perception, that was the case.

At the same time, Ma Xiaotao snorted coldly, advancing instead of retreating, rushing toward the light shadow of the Dark Demon Tiger. Amidst a clear phoenix cry, the flame wings behind her suddenly spread out. In this instant, Ma Xiaotao seemed to have truly turned into a fire phoenix.

The scorching phoenix flames suddenly rose from fiery red to incandescent white. The instantly surging high temperature forced both Dai Yaoheng and Bei Bei on the sides to quickly pull away. Under the rising flames, that demon tiger light shadow actually turned into fly ash in an instant.

With Su Yu's guarantee, Ma Xiaotao was now attacking openly. In the past, the Evil Fire would trouble Ma Xiaotao, causing her to not dare to attack wantonly. This kind of full-burst battle was simply the opportunity Ma Xiaotao had been dreaming of.

Bei Bei was not so lucky. The opponent's speed was too fast. Now, Bei Bei was completely being tortured. Although the opponent's attacks could not cause substantial damage, it was frustrating.

If the opponent were an Assault System like Ye Wuqing, Bei Bei would definitely give him another Tyrant Emperor, Thunder Domain. But this time, forget it, because Bei Bei simply couldn't touch the opponent...

Huang Heyun was taken aback. The scorching flames were already in front of him. He was horrified to find that he actually had a feeling of being completely unable to resist. Wherever the incandescent phoenix flames passed, with him as the center, the air within a radius of several meters was completely distorted. It actually blocked the assistance of the Star Radiance Art, and the high temperature directly caused the Star Radiance Art mist to explode in the air, making it impossible to provide any more aid to his side.

Just when Huang Heyun was in a critical moment, suddenly, the pressure in front of him lightened. Ma Xiaotao's incandescent flames actually veered to the side and then flew into the air.

Ma Xiaotao was also taken aback. How could her Phoenix Fire Line deviate? With her cultivation as a Soul Emperor, it was absolutely impossible for such a mistake to occur. So where exactly did the problem arise?

But when she focused her gaze on another person, all questions were answered.

The one who made the move was a woman standing not far behind Huang Heyun. Her appearance was very ordinary; she looked like a plain young girl with long dark purple hair draped behind her, and some freckles on her face. The most striking thing was her pair of eyes that were actually rising with flames. Five Soul Rings were rhythmically moving on her body, and her right hand was pressing out from afar toward Ma Xiaotao's direction.

This wind-attribute Soul King clearly also had some means, otherwise, it would have been impossible to divert Ma Xiaotao's Phoenix Fire Line. But this time was not like in the original work; although part of it was diverted, a portion of the Phoenix Fire Line still fell. Even with Xu Jiujiu's support, Huang Heyun did not dare to take it head-on.

For a moment, Huang Heyun instantly opened up distance from the others. The formation of Di'ao Academy began to show some chaos, and the expression of Xu Jiujiu on the opposite side also began to change slightly.

"Yu Hao, give your Extreme Ice amplification to Senior Sister Ling Luochen. Senior Sister Ling, use your Fifth Soul Skill. You must make them consume a large amount of soul power now. As long as the soul power of Xu Jiujiu, who is amplifying them from behind, is exhausted, we don't need to worry about anything."

A voice emerged once again. A strange light flashed in Ling Luochen's eyes. With Huo Yuhao's amplification, Ling Luochen was also the Ice Queen on this battlefield. Su Yu's decision completely gave her room to perform, which made her happy.

Huo Yuhao stepped forward, closed his eyes, and pressed both hands on Ling Luochen's back at the same time.

Immediately, Ling Luochen's gaze turned cold, and an indescribable temperament instantly flowed from her body. A more powerful force slowly emerged within her body; this was the amplification from Extreme Ice.

The next instant, what she directly activated was her Fifth Soul Ring. The black Soul Ring bloomed with a luster full of oppressive force, spreading outward.

This was Ling Luochen's Fifth Soul Skill, Ice Radiance Ring!

With Huo Yuhao's amplification, Ling Luochen's strength was definitely not below Ma Xiaotao's, and after becoming the Extreme Ice Ling Luochen, the degree of her terror was even more daunting than Ma Xiaotao's.

For a time, whether it was Ma Xiaotao or Dai Yaoheng, they all subconsciously took a step back.

The bone-chilling ice mist spread across the competition arena. Although separated by the Defensive Soul Guidance Device, the members of Di'ao Academy could also feel that bone-chilling cold.

"Damn it, how is there another Soul Emperor? Wasn't that woman a Soul King? How can she have such powerful strength!"

Xu Jiujiu, who was still amplifying, frowned. Although with her amplification, coupled with the Soul Guidance Devices on their bodies, they were already barely able to block Ling Luochen's Ice Radiance Ring, her soul power was also being consumed rapidly.

Under this tug-of-war, as long as it was dragged out, Ling Luochen could drag Xu Jiujiu down. After all, the more powerful the soul skill, the more astonishing the soul power consumed.

At the same time, some broken fragments were mixed in with Su Yu's shattered Soul Guidance Cannons, splashing everywhere and falling all over the ground. No one knew that among these fragments, there were many fragments formed by Su Yu's Fragment Martial Soul...

Su Yu was still waiting, waiting for Xu Jiujiu to show a change in expression.
