Chapter 106 Turning the Tide.
Without the obscuring icy mist, the audience and Emperor Xingluo of the Star Luo Empire on the city walls could clearly see what was happening on the arena.
Just like his sister, the Star Luo Emperor blurted out "Impossible!"
Star Guardian, seemingly just Princess Jiujiu's fourth spirit ring, was actually a spirit skill that couldn't be easily used. The power of a Star Crown spirit far surpassed that of ordinary spirits, even some top-tier spirits couldn't compare. However, behind this power lay arduous training for Star Crown spirit masters.
Star Crown spirit masters could only train at night, needing to absorb the power of the starry sky to enhance their cultivation. Furthermore, any spirit skill they used required absorbing and storing star power before it could be used. Among these, Star Guardian required the longest absorption of star power.
It took a full eighteen days to absorb all eighteen golden stars. The power of Star Guardian increased with the user's cultivation, making it an extremely rare and powerful skill unaffected by the quality of the spirit ring itself. However, its drawbacks are also quite obvious. After one use, it takes at least eighteen days before it can be used again.
It is precisely for this reason that the Star Guardian's defensive power is exceptionally strong. It's not only an area-of-effect defense, but also, given Princess Jiujiu's current cultivation level, any point of defense with the Star Guardian can rival the full-force defense of a Soul Emperor-level defensive Soul Master. This is why Princess Jiujiu and Emperor Xu Jiawei of the Star Luo Clan are so calm.
However, at this moment, even such a powerful defense has been broken. Given the strength of the Shrek Academy members, they should not have been able to do this.
Currently, Xu Jiujiu's martial soul is damaged, and she is clearly powerless to fight again. Without the blessing of the Star Radiance Technique, the three, led by Huang Heyun, paused simultaneously.
How could Dai Yueheng, Chen Zifeng, Ling Luochen, and the outer court's twin stars, Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi, let such an opportunity pass by?
A burst of blazing white light suddenly erupted from Dai Yueheng's body, and a huge white tiger image appeared above his head, then instantly merged into his body. Dai Yueheng suddenly let out a furious roar, and his first, third, fifth, and sixth spirit rings all shone brightly.
The White Tiger Protective Barrier, White Tiger Vajra Transformation, and White Tiger Demon God Transformation—three amplification skills—instantly boosted his Spirit Emperor cultivation to its peak.
If an ordinary offensive Spirit Emperor were to encounter a defensive Spirit King, perhaps the Spirit King could hold his own. Unfortunately, Holy Wings was facing a White Tiger Spirit Emperor, a master of close combat with overwhelming physical prowess.
Amidst the ear-piercing friction, although the wings, now hardened into solid metal, blocked Dai Yueheng's path, his sharp golden tiger claws forcefully dug into his opponent's wings.
A roar erupted again, a sharp white light burst forth, and the White Tiger Annihilation Strike was unleashed.
However, this time his attack missed its target; a powerful suction force suddenly came from the sky, and then Holy Wings vanished before Dai Yueheng's eyes.
Referee Tian Sha Douluo intervened, rescuing Sheng Yi, which was tantamount to announcing his elimination.
Seeing his companion eliminated in the blink of an eye, Huang Heyun didn't dare to be careless. He pounded his chest with both fists, and then his eyes instantly turned blood red. He opened his mouth and roared like a tiger, and a black tornado instantly rushed towards Dai Yueheng.
This was Huang Heyun's fifth soul skill, and also his strongest attack, Dark Hurricane.
This dark hurricane was almost tangible. Wherever the hurricane passed, it left a deep trench on the arena. At the same time, this hurricane also had a powerful suction force, pulling its target.
Second soul skill, Xuanming Shield Formation!
Fourth soul skill, Xuanming Displacement!
Xu Sanshi's Xuanming Tortoise Shell Shield on his arm shone brightly with black light, instantly switching positions with Dai Yueheng. The Xuanming Shield disintegrated into several shields, blocking the black hurricane.
"Roar—" A wild roar erupted from Beibei's mouth. Immediately afterward, the lightning surrounding his body turned completely golden, a dazzling golden light shimmering, and a radiant golden radiance coalesced above his head.
Then, the dragon scales on Beibei's right arm rapidly spread, covering his entire body in the blink of an eye. His aura underwent a dramatic transformation. It was an aura of supreme pride and domineering power, possessing an indescribable strength and kingly presence.
Beibei's aura had reached its peak. He took a step forward with his left foot and shouted, "Overlord, Thunder Domain!"
A wave of golden light, composed of bolts of lightning, burst forth, spreading gold wherever it passed, covering an area with a diameter of twenty meters.
The instant the lightning struck, Tian Sha Douluo hastily drew out Huang Heyun.
Chen Zifeng attacked Dugu Shangshan, whose spirit was the Netherworld Mad Lion.
Dugu Shangshan had no other choice; dodging was out of the question.
His fifth spirit ring shone, and the Netherworld Mad Lion spirit unleashed its strongest attack. However, it was clearly no match for Chen Zifeng, who was also unleashing his fifth spirit skill.
"Boom—" Amidst the deafening roar, the entire forty-meter-wide arena was engulfed in terrifying killing intent. The audience witnessed a figure soaring into the sky, rescued by Tian Sha Douluo. As for Lightning Falcon spirit master Chen Xiaojie, before Ling Luochen could arrive to support him, Wu Xuan's Soul-Breaking Spear locked onto him with a mental strike. No matter how fast he was, it was useless against Wu Xuan, who slashed him off the stage.
The situation on the stage changed rapidly.
From the moment the fourth spirit skill was broken to now, only a moment had passed.
But all four members of their team had already been eliminated.
The Star Luo Royal Academy's overall strength was indeed impressive, but the individual strength of Shrek Academy's team was simply too outstanding.
Whether it was Dai Yueheng, the Soul Emperor with exceptional combat power, Chen Zifeng, the Soul King with terrifying attack power, or Wu Xuan, Bei Bei, and Xu Sanshi, who couldn't be judged by ordinary standards, in a one-on-one elimination match, these powerful attack-type Soul Kings from the Star Luo Royal Academy were completely crushed.
Six of the seven members of the Star Luo Royal Academy team were already gone. Dai Yueheng stood before the staggering Princess Jiu Jiu, but didn't attack her; he simply gazed calmly at the princess.
Princess Jiu Jiu had retreated to the edge of the arena. During the time she went from being attacked and losing her senses to regaining them, the match was essentially over.
Princess Jiu Jiu was somewhat dazed. She wanted to say, "I haven't even used my strongest skill yet!" But she knew it was pointless. Even with her powerful Star Crown Martial Soul, she couldn't possibly face the entire Shrek team simultaneously.
"Star Luo Royal Academy concedes defeat in team battle."
With that, Xu Jiujiu turned and jumped off the arena.
Compared to Xu Jiujiu, Xu Jiawei, standing atop the imperial city wall, appeared much calmer. But his deep eyes seemed to hold an undisguised excitement.
Wu Xuan's displayed strength made him increasingly convinced of the wisdom of his decision.
The match ended, and Ma Xiaotao was released from her absolute defensive soul tool by the referee, Heavenly Fiend Douluo. Ma Xiaotao was extremely aggrieved, glaring fiercely at the jovial Xu Sanshi.
The other party immediately stopped smiling, startled.
