Chapter 16 - Chapter 16: The 30/70 Split - Three Seconds to Shatter the Shrek Seven Devils

  . The strange phenomenon lasted for three seconds.

  After three seconds, the flames dissipated, leaving only the surrounding sweltering air to prove that everything that had just happened was not an illusion.

  Focus.

  The Spirit Plaza became the sole focus of the entire arena.

  Even Bibi Dong, Chen Xin, Dugu Bo, Ning Fengzhi, and Qian Renxue on the high platform couldn't help but focus their gazes, their eyes fixed on the flames that were about to disappear.

  As the flames disappeared, something astonishing happened.

  At this moment, all of the Shrek Seven Devils except Tang San were unconscious on the ground. Xiao Wu lay in front of Tang San, while Dai Mubai, Ning Rongrong, and the others were at Tang San's feet, their external spirit bones, the Eight Spider Lances, enveloping them. It seemed that he was using the Eight Spider Lances to protect them from the heavenly fire.

  However, at this moment, the Eight Spider Lances, which had undergone multiple evolutions, were eighty percent incinerated, and the broken parts were still dripping with flames, like melted steel.

  "What a magnificent Heaven-Burning Flame!"

  Tang San's face was ashen, the pain of his Eight Spider Lances being burned made his whole body tremble. At this moment, his eyes were filled with fear and hatred. He could no longer feel his Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul. "You! You destroyed my Martial Soul!"

  The flames completely dissipated.

  Chen Changfeng's complete figure appeared in everyone's sight.

  His clothes and hair fluttered, moving even without wind.

  The overwhelming aura of flames returned to his body, and his long hair, which had turned crimson due to the release of his divine skill, returned to its original black color. Smoke and mist, not a single grain of which could get close to him, all vanished before his Staff of Destruction.

  Chen Changfeng still stood in the same place, not moving an inch.

  "Destroyed?"

  Chen Changfeng looked coldly at Tang San and said calmly, "If it weren't for the rules of the competition, you would be dead by now."

  "It's not that my Heavenly Flame only lasts for three seconds, but that you can only withstand it for three seconds."

  Indeed.

  In Chen Changfeng's calculations, Shrek Academy could withstand the Heaven-Burning Flame for three seconds, and this was entirely due to the three-second invincible golden body of the Soft Bone Charming Rabbit Xiao Wu.

  It negates all physical and mental attacks.

  It was surprising that Tang San could withstand it for three seconds using his mutated Eight Spider Lances.

  But that was all.

  The words fell.

  The next second, under the gaze of countless shocked eyes, the Staff of Destruction slammed into the ground. An irresistible, powerful force instantly spread horizontally.

  At the same time, the heavily injured Tang San and the others were forcibly blasted away, crashing into the defensive light barrier at the edge of the Spirit Plaza like cannonballs.

  Their injuries were compounded!

  Silence!

  The entire Spirit Plaza fell silent instantly, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

  What does it mean for a stadium of hundreds to suddenly fall silent? It can only be described as oppressive or terrifying.

  The sight of Dai Mubai, Tang San, and the other six being blasted away by that powerful force made the hearts of the teachers and students from the other academies in the arena clench. The healing-type spirit masters of the Heaven Dou Empire jumped down from the Spirit Plaza in unison, beams of white light descending upon the Shrek Six Monsters.

  Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang, his face contorted with embarrassment, jumped onto the stage and, with a resentful whisper, shouted, "Shrek Academy, concede!"

  They lost.

  The Shrek Academy team had lost.

  And lost so utterly without any resistance.

  Almost everyone understood what Chen Changfeng meant by "30/70 chance" before the duel began. It wasn't that he had a 30% chance of winning.

  Rather, it

  meant that within three seconds, all seven members of the Shrek Academy team would be completely torn apart—that was the true meaning of a 30/70 split.

  Shock couldn't even begin to describe the feelings of the countless spectators, especially Huo Wu and Shui Bing'er from the Five Elements Academy. Their pretty faces were as pale as paper, almost like Tang San's.

  Not from fear,

  but from the moment the Heaven-Burning Flame descended. Huo Wu's Fire Shadow had been suppressed like never before, even affecting her mind. Shui Bing'er had almost all the moisture drained from her body in that instant, her Ice Phoenix Martial Soul on the verge of collapse.

  What kind of flame was that? Its mere residual power could cause such a huge impact and trauma to their minds.

  Martial Soul Academy's substitute players?

  Nobody believed it!   

  On the judges' panel, Chen Xin, Dugu Bo, and Ning Fengzhi all wore grim expressions.

  Ning Fengzhi, in particular

  , was clearly unhappy. Ning Fengzhi had long held a high position, all for the sake of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's growth. Although he loved his daughter, when exceptionally talented young people appeared, he would consider sacrificing her marriage to win them over. But while he was eager to recruit talent, for those geniuses he couldn't use and who posed a threat to the sect, Ning Fengzhi's first thought was assassination.

  Chen Changfeng's performance had already stirred his killing intent. A twenty-year-old Title Douluo appearing in the Spirit Hall was a fatal threat to the seven major sects.

  This final had completely lost its original meaning. The Spirit Hall had successfully proven to the entire continent that the so-called geniuses and dark horses of sects and academies were nothing compared to the true geniuses of the Spirit Hall.

  The Spirit Hall, with just one person, had slapped the faces of all the forces on the Douluo Continent. This was clearly a forceful assertion of authority!

  Bibi Dong's gaze was unusually intense at this moment.

  No one knew what she was thinking.

  Her calmness was chilling.

  Although the match was over, Bibi Dong seemed still immersed in the intense flames.

  However, as the Pope, she was the first to recover, taking a deep look at the back of the Grandmaster on the field, then turning to nod to the stunned red-robed referee outside, indicating that he could announce the results of the competition. The

  red-robed referee stood up and announced with an extremely unsettling expression, "The final champion of this year's All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition is the Martial Soul Academy team."

  "Boom!!!"

  Just then, another muffled explosion rang out.

  All eyes returned to the Martial Soul Plaza.

  Only then did everyone notice that Chen Changfeng had just blasted Tang San and the other six monsters away, but had left only the unconscious Xiao Wu behind.

  The explosion came from beside Xiao Wu.

  It was Chen Changfeng again.

  He had actually taken the initiative to forcefully push away Liu Erlong, who wanted to take Xiao Wu away.

  "What are you doing?!" Liu Erlong exclaimed in shock and anger.

  The sudden turn of events startled everyone.

  The Shrek Six Monsters, who had just awakened from their coma, stood in a row, behind them were Grandmaster, Flander, and Poison Douluo Dugu Bo. They were

  all on high alert, wary of Chen Changfeng.

  "You can leave now, but she's not leaving today!" Chen Changfeng's icy voice echoed throughout the entire Spirit Plaza.

  What am I doing?

  You'll find out soon enough.

  With that,

  Chen Changfeng walked straight to Xiao Wu and, amidst countless shocked gazes, unceremoniously lifted her up with one hand.

  In an instant, everyone was horrified.

  "Let go of Xiao Wu!"

  Tang San shouted, almost instinctively rushing out towards Xiao Wu.

  "You're courting death!"

  Chen Changfeng didn't even raise his head, his scepter trembling once more.

  A powerful destructive force suddenly shot out.

  This was true killing intent.

  "Watch out!"

  "Little San!"

  Amidst the cries of alarm, Chen Changfeng's attack didn't stop. At this crucial moment, a massive, azure-blue sword descended from the sky, blocking Tang San's path and forcefully repelling the destructive force.

  Simultaneously, Ning Fengzhi and Sword Dao Chenxin appeared before Tang San.    Ning

  Fengzhi: "The Martial Soul Academy has won, so what are you doing?"   (End of Chapter)
