"First soul skill, Wing Blade!" Yu Feng could not possibly tolerate Tang San treating Huanyin like this. With a single flap, he cut the Blue Silver Grass in two and said angrily, "Is this Tang San crazy? It's just a match, yet he dares to go for the kill." Tianlin didn't say much; this was simply the Tang Sect's style. No matter which world, the Tang Sect is almost always the same—when facing an opponent, they never show mercy. If the Blue Silver Strangulation just now had hit, even if Tang San held back a bit due to the competition rules to avoid killing Huanyin, the poison would still have entered her body, causing severe damage and even affecting her future cultivation. "You bastard!" Yu Feng had already forgotten Tianlin's pre-match plan and immediately flew out of the shield formation, spreading his wings. "Third soul skill, Dark Wind! Fourth soul skill, Wind and Fire Blaze!" The third and fourth soul rings lit up at the same time, and Yu Feng did something unexpected—he unleashed the third and fourth soul skills simultaneously. One of his wings turned blue-red, unleashing a scorching and slicing gale, while the other turned black, releasing a black whirlwind that struck directly at the soul. "What's Yu Feng's background? Not even the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's Heart Separation Control can divide their soul power in half to cast different soul skills at once." The Grandmaster looked shocked; he had never seen such a thing before. Even with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, it seems like multiple buffs are applied at once, but they're done in sequence—first strength, then speed—not truly simultaneous. There's always a split-second gap. But Yu Feng did use both at once. This meant he could execute a combo skill all by himself. "Storm Rolls the Heavens!" As expected, Yu Feng pulled off a solo combo skill. The two winds merged, and their power multiplied. The entire half of the battlefield with Shrek was now surrounded by a terrifying gale with both physical and soul-attack properties—a force no weaker than a Soul King's fifth skill. "Everyone thinks that the Emperor Team only relies on Tianlin, Gu Ran, Tianheng, and Dugu Yan, but actually, the others are equally outstanding," Qin Ming said proudly. "This solo combo skill is Yu Feng's unique technique, only mastered after years of hard work. Though his presence in the team is less, his effort is second to none." Yu Feng once consumed the Wind-Fire Seven Leaf Flower, a top-grade immortal plant that perfectly blends wind and fire attributes. He gained inspiration from it, and only after consuming it could he accomplish such a feat. All seven of Shrek were now engulfed by Yu Feng's gale, suffering both physical pain from the wind blades and spiritual confusion. "Such a strong attack—we must restrain him! Second soul skill, Parasite!" At this moment, Tang San managed to raise his hand and activate his second soul skill. Blue Silver Grass suddenly sprouted from Yu Feng's wings, binding them. It turned out that when Yu Feng cut Tang San's Blue Silver Grass earlier, Tang San had left seeds on him. As expected, Tang San was still the meticulous Tang San. "Everyone, are you okay?" The gale finally subsided, and Tang San turned to check on his companions. "Third Brother, I'm fine." Xiao Wu, being a 100,000-year soul beast in human form, had a stronger mind than most Soul Masters and managed to hold on. Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun, both Soul Ancestors, were also mostly unharmed. But Zhu Zhuqing, Meng Yiran, and Tai Long, three Soul Elders, had already passed out completely. "Yu Feng crippled four and knocked out three with one move, totally ruining my bait plan. Fortunately, Tang San is still awake. Watch closely now, Shi Nian—I prepared this act just for you," Tianlin glanced coldly at Shi Nian in the audience. As Shrek's next opponent, and as team leader, Shi Nian naturally came to scout for information. "Sister Huanyin, are you ready?" Tianlin asked. "Just about." Huanyin smiled slightly and began playing a new melody. "Second soul skill, Worldly Illusion!" Huanyin's hidden second soul skill was her only control-type skill. Those affected by her tune would fall into an endless illusion, as if obtaining their greatest desire in the mortal world, unwilling to leave. Before Xiao Wu's eyes stood her mother, holding her hand and bringing her to Tang San's side. Together, under the blessing of Da Ming and Er Ming, they held a wedding witnessed by their mother and friends—her happiest moment. Dai Mubai, meanwhile, had defeated Dai Weisi and now sat on the imperial throne, surrounded by Zhu Zhuqing and three thousand beauties, thoroughly enjoying himself. Ma Hongjun, too, was surrounded by beauties, but his delight was in being pursued by many women instead of always being the pursuer, fully satisfying his vanity. Witnessing this, Shi Nian was slightly moved. "I didn't expect this little girl from the Emperor Team to have such a powerful illusion skill. But its impact is probably due to her long charge-up. Heh, still far from my level." "Everyone, now's the time—knock them all out!" Yu Tianheng charged first at the four on the opposing side, with Shi Mo and Shi Mo each knocking away Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun. Tianlin took Xiao Wu out of the battlefield, leaving only Tang San. Yu Tianheng, Yu Feng, and Osolo rushed at him together. But just then, Tang San—who seemed to be entranced—suddenly snapped out of it. Seizing the moment, he counterattacked: first using Controlling Crane Catching Dragon to throw Oslo at Yu Feng, causing them to crash into each other. Then, Blue Silver Grass bound both, and with a hidden weapon technique, he flung them toward Yu Tianheng. "What?" Yu Tianheng was caught off guard by the collision, and all three Emperor Team members were thrown out of the arena by Tang San, a mere Soul Elder. "He wasn't affected by my illusion?" Huanyin exclaimed in surprise. "Illusions don't work on me," Tang San opened his eyes, purple pupils glinting. "I didn't expect Brother Tang's Purple Demon Eye to have reached such a refined peak. Ordinary illusions are indeed useless against you. My mistake," Tianlin said ruefully, his face full of regret, as if the failed strategy was entirely his fault. Tang San smiled slightly. At this point, it was enough. Shrek was now down to just him—not a match for four from the Emperor Team—but he'd already held his three-to-one. Shrek's dignity was preserved. After all, aside from them, not even the powerful Godwind and Elephant Armored team had managed to defeat a single member of the Emperor Team. "We concede this match," Tang San said contentedly as he left the arena. He had no interest in fighting a battle he was destined to lose. Little did he know, someone in the stands was now fixated on him. "Purple Demon Eye? Never heard of that soul skill, but it seems to be the nemesis of illusions. Could this guy completely counter my Blue Sunshine Academy?" In reality, Shi Nian was overthinking. Without Autumn Water Dew, Tang San's Purple Demon Eye at less than the Mustard Seed stage could only see through simple illusions. Complex techniques like Blue Sunshine Academy's Seven-Asura Illusion, a seven-person fusion skill, were still beyond him. But for someone like Shi Nian, even the possibility was enough. To ensure victory, he always preferred to nip danger in the bud. Especially when it came to wild soul masters like Tang San—seemingly powerless and unaffiliated—they were his top priority targets.
