Ultimate Sea God Dragon Battle: Fusion of Xuanwu

"Zero's Martial Soul!?"

"What a big change?!"

Down below the stage, Dugu Yan and Yu Tianheng were both shocked when they saw the state of Ouyang Ling's martial soul.

Giant claws, water cannons, scorpion tails…

Which one isn't a deadly weapon?!

"His martial soul is incredibly powerful!"

As the owner of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Martial Soul, Yu Tianheng felt the pressure emanating from Ouyang Ling's current Martial Soul even more clearly. In addition, the increase in the number of Martial Souls he had fought in the past year allowed him to roughly analyze the current situation of Ouyang Ling's Martial Soul.

Aside from not being able to fly, it has almost no drawbacks. Besides... does being able to fly really matter?

Yu Tianheng's gaze fell on the pair of water cannons.

He was certain that any flying Soul Master of the same level would be unable to take flight in front of Ouyang Ling. Those water cannons were no mere decorations; they would likely be blasted down the moment they took off!

"Tianheng, do you think graphite and millstone can win?" Dugu Yan's voice rang in his ears, causing Yu Tianheng to frown slightly, but he decisively shook his head.

"You really can't."

After all, how long can a Martial Soul Fusion skill last?

As they were exchanging words, the battle on the stage had already begun. However, in the previous confrontation of auras, the Shi brothers keenly sensed that their water attribute was being completely suppressed and difficult to mobilize.

You must understand, they are Xuanwu now!

But before they could think any further,

"boom--"

The next second, Ouyang Ling's figure disappeared from the spot, leaving only a deep pit and a chilling aura.

"Tsuchi, Yu!"

Without a second thought, the Shi brothers reacted immediately. If water wouldn't work, they'd use soil!

Xuanwu stomped its front foot, and in an instant, the ground rose up, forming a yellowish-brown stone wall.

But before the stone wall could be fully formed, a giant claw covered in frost shattered it!

"Crack—, Boom—"

Amidst flying dirt and rocks, the giant claw remained undeterred. Through the billowing dust, Ouyang Ling's face was revealed.

"Whoosh—"

Realizing the danger, the black snake coiled on the tortoise shell instantly came to life, tearing through the air like a black shadow and biting at Ouyang Ling!

With a gentle flick of its long, slender scorpion tail, the chilling hook at the tip struck back, firmly entangling the black snake's vital spot. It looked as if it was about to strike hard, but the black snake's scales were like indestructible obsidian. With a "clang," the strike only sent up a few sparks and left a white mark, but it was impossible to destroy the snake.

The black snake, seemingly possessing its own consciousness, immediately turned around and began to fight with the scorpion's tail.

It even stirred up black water, transforming into a giant black water python. The moment its snout opened, it seemed to swallow the sky and the sea, as if it wanted to devour Ouyang Ling whole.

Ouyang Ling merely glanced at it out of the corner of his eye. With a cold glint in his eyes, he swiftly swung his left claw like a blue water blade, instantly splitting the Xuan Shui Giant Python in two with a sharp white wave that exploded into a mass of black water.

At the same time, the giant claw on its right arm extends upwards...

"Click—"

Just then, Xuanwu's massive jaws snapped down, its sharp teeth no less formidable than any fine iron weapon.

The terrifying force transmitted from the upper and lower jaws made the right claw crack loudly.

However, Ouyang Ling took this opportunity to send the chill of the extreme ice through the giant claw into Xuanwu's mouth.

Before Xuanwu could even open its mouth, the flowing water and chilling cold completely sealed and froze Xuanwu's massive mouth shut.

At this moment, the solid ice felt like a boulder stuffed into his mouth, and the struggle between his right arm and Xuanwu made it difficult for him to move for a time. But as Xuanwu's soul power surged...

"Click...click..."

The solid ice gradually developed some cracks under the giant mouth of Xuanwu.

At the same time, "Boom boom—"

Two jets of extremely cold water shot out and slammed directly into the neck of the Xuanwu, which was connected to the tortoise shell.

moment,

Centered on the water column, layers of solid ice covered Xuanwu's entire body.

The Shi brothers sensed something was wrong, and their soul power surged.

"roar--"

A deep roar echoed throughout the stadium!

Like a divine beast awakening, with this roar, starting from Xuanwu, almost half of the Soul Arena was covered by soul power.

My legs are trembling.

Layers of shockwaves surged instantly.

Suddenly,

break!

The ice broke apart, and the ground turned into mud.

The immense force knocked Ouyang Ling back, but it was enough for him to regain his balance after taking only three steps back.

"good."

Looking at the unmoving Xuanwu before him, Ouyang Ling raised his two massive claws. "Then let's continue."

The next second, the giant claw struck again.

This time, however, Ouyang Ling's scorpion tail locked onto Xuanwu's neck, violently pulling it off and slamming it to the ground.

"Thump—"

As the tortoise's head slammed down, kicking up a cloud of dust, its left giant claw swiftly swung out, slicing the still-forming Xuan Shui Giant Python in two.

In the blink of an eye, Ouyang Ling had already stepped on the top of Xuanwu's head.

While Xuanwu was still trying to break free from the scorpion's tail and fight back, Ouyang Ling no longer gave them any chance.

It leaps high into the air, a chill spreading through its right claw.

The next second, a chill surged through Ouyang Ling's body!

"Diamond Ice Dust Fist!"

When giant claws replace fists

Its power will naturally be even greater!

Upon seeing this, the Shi brothers quickly detached the Xuanwu's shell from its body, which then transformed into a massive shield to block the giant claws. Simultaneously, their earth element surged, unleashing a devastating shockwave!

"shock!"

Accompanied by the roar of Xuanwu and the howl of an ice dragon, the ice claws collided with Xuanwu's tortoise shell.

In an instant, the entire venue was enveloped in a chilling cold.

"boom--"

Upon impact, half of the Battle Arena was covered in frost, reflecting a layer of blue light.

Immediately afterwards, with a deafening roar, half of the Battle Arena collapsed.

Under the giant claw of the "Diamond Ice Dust Fist," the enormous Xuanwu had also disappeared, leaving only the Shi brothers, whose soul power was completely exhausted.

Meanwhile, in the audience,

A chill ran through them, causing Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan to stiffen their expressions.

They never expected that the Shi brothers' Martial Soul Fusion Technique would only last so long against Ouyang Ling.

In the ruins of the half-battle arena, the Shi brothers were lying there without any regard for their image.

Ouyang Ling leaped down, grabbed the two of them, and patted them on the shoulder. "Your Martial Soul Fusion Technique is quite good; it's indeed very strong."

"Is this not bad?"

Graphite looked up, his tone somewhat strange.

"Every time we fight, you say something like that. Honestly, we all think you're a bit arrogant."

Ouyang Ling was taken aback upon hearing this.

arrogant?

I?!

"yes."

The stone mill's low, resonant opening echoed.

"We only held out for a minute. And you call that 'not bad'? Well…"

The unfinished explanations undoubtedly highlighted the vast disparity between the two sides, leaving the two brothers momentarily stunned.

Ouyang Ling: "..."

Hearing the two of them describe him like that, he couldn't help but think of what he always said after each Soul Battle. Remembering that it was true, he couldn't help but touch the bridge of his nose somewhat awkwardly.

So he quickly changed the subject.

"Okay, I'll change from now on. But for now, let me talk about your problems."

After quickly brushing aside the former, Ouyang Ling put on a serious face and said, "Actually, I find it very strange. You are all defensive-type Soul Masters, and you have always focused on defensive strategies. But why did you launch several ineffective attacks on me after using the Soul Fusion Technique, causing your Soul Power to be completely depleted?"

In fact, the Shi brothers' defeat was not because they were pierced by Ouyang Ling, but because their own soul power was consumed too much, causing their martial soul fusion skill to automatically dissipate.

After all, the combined strength of two Soul Masters using their Soul Fusion Technique was comparable to that of a Soul King. Furthermore, the Shi brothers possessed the Xuanwu Soul; if they hadn't launched ineffective attacks and allowed their Soul Power to deplete excessively, they wouldn't have been defeated by Ouyang Ling in a minute.

They can hold out for at least a minute and a half!

This…

Upon hearing this, the Shi brothers looked at each other in bewilderment.

What can they say?

Because they're not good at attacking, only at defending?

After all, neither Yu Tianheng nor Dugu Yan could break through Xuanwu's defense, so their approach was to wait until their opponent had almost exhausted their soul power before launching a so-called one-hit kill, which was simple and easy.

I've never encountered an opponent like Ouyang Ling before. He's both strong and resilient, it's like fighting against an opponent with the same level of strength as a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

Therefore, they changed their previous strategy.

"I see."

After learning the reason from the Shi brothers, Ouyang Ling suddenly understood. He then said, "You don't need to change. Just stick to your previous style. The method of fighting while resisting doesn't suit you; it will only increase the consumption of your soul power. In my opinion, you should simply develop a desperate counterattack move suitable for your Martial Soul Fusion Technique, making sure the attack is powerful enough to kill in one hit."

The Shi brothers readily accepted this suggestion.

With the end of the battle,

College life has officially begun this semester.

In the days that followed, as Yu Feng and his two companions advanced to Soul Master level, they joined Ouyang Ling and the others in the first class of the Heaven Dou level. They also had the "honor" of meeting the two teams that would be participating in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament a year later:

Tian Dou Team One and Tian Dou Team Two.
