Chapter 66 - An Unwinnable Opponent

"Next, it's your turn!" Having easily dealt with Huyan Shan, Cheng Xiao turned his gaze to Huyan Li, who was filled with shock.

Just now, facing Huyan Shan's charge, Cheng Xiao had directly used his killing intent skill and targeted a vital point. After reducing Huyan Shan's body attributes by fifty percent, his vaunted defense and strength were simply not worth mentioning.

Before the fight had even truly begun, one of their teammates had already been eliminated. At this moment, Huyan Li's breathing grew heavier and heavier. The muscles on his body were also swelling, and the three soul rings beneath his feet were constantly emitting light while also rhythmically pulsing.

"Lingling, be careful." Seeing that Huyan Li seemed to be preparing a big move, Cheng Xiao flashed in front of Ye Lingling, speaking in a low voice.

"Yes." Ye Lingling released her Nine Hearts Begonia martial soul, she was ready to heal Cheng Xiao immediately.

However, at this moment, the light from Huyan Li's third soul ring burst forth, and then, an invisible pressure emanated from his body.

"Third Soul Skill, Pressure Kill!"

Along with Huyan Li's angry shout, Cheng Xiao's body was instantly locked. He found that his legs seemed to have lost their ability to move, while Huyan Li, who had released his third Soul Skill, unhesitatingly leaped into the air, heading straight for Cheng Xiao.

"Kid, you're finished!" Huyan Li's eyes gleamed, and he seemed to see the dawn of victory.

His third Soul Skill, Pressure Kill, was a lock-on type of Soul Skill. Once locked, the opponent's feet would temporarily lose their ability to move, leaving them only to brace for impact.

This was the greatest characteristic of his thousand-year Soul Skill. With their massive bodies descending from the sky, compounded by their own soul power, the pressure they could generate was unimaginable. As long as the opponent couldn't move to meet the attack head-on, not even a strong-attack type Soul Master, let alone a pure power-type Soul Master, could necessarily withstand it!

"Cheng Xiao, be careful!" Seeing this, Ye Lingling's heart clenched, and she hurriedly warned.

Facing Huyan Li's attack, a curve appeared at the corner of Cheng Xiao's mouth. Immediately, several streaks of black smoke surged from beneath his feet. In an instant, Shadow Soldiers and the Three-Eyed Demon Ape appeared in front of Cheng Xiao without warning, blocking Huyan Li's attack.

"How is this possible!" Huyan Li was stunned as he was lifted into the air by the Shadow Soldiers and the Three-Eyed Demon Ape. He looked at the pitch-black, armor-clad ape-like Soul Beast before him and was dumbfounded.

From beginning to end, Cheng Xiao hadn't used any Soul Skills. Yet now, Huyan Li had thought he was on the verge of victory, only to find that he was the fool?

Looking at the dazed Huyan Li, Cheng Xiao smiled and said, "It seems your strength and weight are somewhat inferior to the ape-type Soul Beast shadow."

"I forgot to mention, the effect of my Soul Skill is to summon different types of Soul Beast shadows. The Soul Beast shadow standing before you now is a ape-type Soul Beast called the Three-Eyed Demon Ape. With its strength, defeating you is not difficult. Do you still want to continue?"

Cheng Xiao's voice echoed throughout the Heaven Dou Great Spirit Arena. He spoke loudly to mislead people, making them believe that the Shadow Soldiers were a Soul Skill, not his innate Spirit. Otherwise, if they knew he could make deceased creatures fight for him, it would inevitably bring trouble.

The audience stared in disbelief. Shadows that could summon soul beasts? What kind of Spirit was this, possessing such a peculiar ability?

Could a Soul Master really control such a strange power?

Huyan Li was already in despair. The strength of ape-type soul beasts was among the best. Even the Soul Masters of the Elephant Armored Sect needed to hunt soul rings from power-type soul beasts, and these ape-type soul beasts were on their hunting list.

Therefore, Huyan Li was very aware of the terrifying power of ape-type soul beasts. Moreover, he couldn't resist at all. He was being held high in the air by the Three-Eyed Demon Ape. If he kept fighting, he would face the combined attacks of Cheng Xiao and the shadow soul beast.

Cheng Xiao alone was already difficult to deal with, plus a Three-Eyed Demon Ape, and he couldn't fight anymore. He could only blame Huyan Shan for being eliminated so early; otherwise, his Pressure Kill would've targeted the defenseless Ye Lingling.

"We lost. I concede." Knowing that continuing would do him no good, Huyan Li reluctantly chose to concede. He wasn't a simple-minded brute, but he had lost his composure after seeing Huyan Shan easily defeated.

Seeing Huyan Li concede so readily, Cheng Xiao didn't press the advantage. He snapped his fingers, and the Shadow Soldier Three-Eyed Demon Ape turned into black smoke and dissipated on the arena, merging into Cheng Xiao's shadow.

With the disappearance of the Shadow Soldier Three-Eyed Demon Ape, Huyan Li, who was held in mid-air, lost his balance and crashed onto the arena. There was a loud "bang," and a human-shaped crater appeared on the arena.

The duel ended. Cheng Xiao and Ye Lingling exchanged a glance, and then, under the announcer's loud declaration, they left the arena.

As they walked out of the Heaven Dou Great Soul Arena, they could still hear the roaring cheers from the audience. It seemed like many people tonight had lost everything, and some might even lose their underwear.

The Royal Fight Team had already finished their soul battles. After watching Cheng Xiao and Ye Lingling's battle, they came out to wait. None of them expected Huyan Li's third Soul Skill to end in such a dramatic way, especially when Huyan Li was held high by the Three-Eyed Demon Ape, which made everyone burst into laughter.

Afterward, the Royal Fight Team summarized the results of today's soul battles. Except for Dugu Yan's loss to Cheng Xiao, everyone else had won their battles, making it a joyous occasion.

"Alright, everyone, rest tonight. Get a good night's sleep; we have classes tomorrow," Qin Ming said, satisfied with everyone's performance. Not only had they won their soul battles, but it had also strengthened the Royal Fight Team's cohesion.

Under Qin Ming's lead, everyone walked out of the Heaven Dou Great Soul Arena. As soon as they stepped outside, Cheng Xiao sensed a strange gaze, almost constantly fixed on him.

Being watched like this, Cheng Xiao slowed down, intending to see who was observing him.

However, just as he turned his head to look towards the other side of the arena, the strange gaze instantly disappeared, along with the feeling of being secretly watched.

"What's wrong?" Ye Lingling, who was with him, noticed Cheng Xiao's unusual behavior. After a dual soul battle, she had a better impression of Cheng Xiao. Otherwise, she usually wouldn't say a word.

"It's nothing," Cheng Xiao shook his head, not explaining to Ye Lingling. He just silently reminded himself to be more cautious.

After the Royal Fight Team had gone far away, in a shadowy corner of the Heaven Dou Great Soul Arena, a small, jade-green snake was constantly flicking its tongue. Its owner, dressed in a green robe, was staring at the departing group with a gloomy expression.

After returning to Heaven Dou Royal Academy, everyone went back to take a shower first, then prepared to go to the cafeteria for a meal. After all, they had experienced two soul battles in a row, and everyone's stomachs were rumbling.

After everyone had eaten their fill, Qin Ming turned his gaze to Cheng Xiao and said with a smile, "Little guy, you really gave us a surprise. With your powerful strength, you'll probably be able to get your Silver Soul Badge in no time."

"Just luck," Cheng Xiao said with a smile.

"You…" Qin Ming shook his head slightly, laughing, "Being low-key is a good thing, but being too low-key won't do. But it doesn't matter. Study hard. In three months, we'll set off from Heaven Dou City and go all the way to Soto City for soul battles. Always staying in Heaven Dou City for soul battles isn't good for you."

"I'll listen to Teacher Qin's arrangements," Cheng Xiao nodded with a smile.
