……

Chen Xiaojun's figure was revealed.

He held the ancient yet shimmering Chun Jun sword, staring expressionlessly at the person opposite him. The sword tip drooped, seemingly still carrying a trace of the cold aftertaste of cleaving a giant object.

In the instant the smoke enveloped the area, the second ice phoenix that rushed in had its power level plummet after being bombarded by the Big Dipper Diagram, and was even on the verge of falling out of the Soul Saint realm.

Under the cover of smoke, Chen Xiaojun, whose soul power had reached level 63, unleashed the "Charge" special skill of Chun Jun Sword with all his might, doubling his attack power. He then used the Deadly Sword Drawing Technique to finish off the Ice Phoenix, which was already at its last gasp.

……

Chen Xiaojun turned to the side and whispered, "Xiao Yi, go and check on Ma Liang and the others."

Xiao Yi nodded in response and immediately darted away to check on Ma Liang's injuries.

Ma Liang's condition was very bad. His injuries were severe, and what was even more troublesome was that a cold, icy aura had invaded his body. For a Soul Master whose foundation was fire, this icy invasion was undoubtedly adding insult to injury.

Xiao Yi immediately activated the "Green Water Healer's" secret technique—Rejuvenating Cocoon.

A green vine of life instantly emerged in her palm, spreading rapidly like a living serpent, gently and tightly enveloping Ma Liang, who was lying on the ground, forming a vine cocoon that emitted a soft green light.

Weak Ma Liang lay in the cocoon, a helpless bitter smile on his face. This was the second time he had received the "Rejuvenating Cocoon" treatment. What could he do when the Ma family was good at offense but not defense?

Then, she activated her life force field to heal everyone.

On the other side, Shui Binglan of the Tianshui team witnessed the dramatic change in the arena, and her expression changed drastically.

"Qingwu, increase your soul power output!" she shouted urgently.

Together with Xue Qingwu beside him, they once again urged the little remaining soul power in their bodies, forcibly injecting it to maintain the martial soul fusion skill.

With their combined efforts, the Ice Phoenix, which had been somewhat weakened by the bombardment, managed to stabilize its disintegrating form. The dim ice radiance around its body began to glow slightly again, and it let out a clear phoenix cry mixed with pain, raising its head once more.

However, the intense battle had already greatly depleted its essence, and the pressure it could emit at this moment could only barely maintain the level of the peak of the initial stage of Soul Saint (about level 73).

Its narrow, icy eyes were fixed on Chen Xiaojun, its massive wings stirred up a violent torrent of ice and snow, and its huge body, like a falling iceberg, charged straight toward Chen Xiaojun, its icy beak gleaming with a deadly cold light.

Faced with this fierce attack, Chen Xiaojun's eyes narrowed.

The ancient and majestic Chun Jun sword in his hand lit up with mysterious runes one after another, activating "Peerless Nobility", instantly doubling the five attributes.

At the same time, light gathered in his left hand, and another divine sword—Seven Star Dragon Abyss—was held in his grasp, its blade flowing like autumn water.

"Fifth Soul Skill - Ultimate Skill - Azure Lotus Sword Song!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the scene on the arena changed abruptly.

A hazy, dreamlike realm, like an inverted lake, suddenly unfolded, enveloping the space between him and the ice phoenix.

The faint chanting of Buddhist hymns arose from nowhere, echoing in the space, carrying a solemn aura that cleansed the soul.

In the sky, countless blurry, hazy humanoid figures slowly emerged, like projections of a divine kingdom, making this battlefield appear both sacred and illusory.

Those humanoid figures of light and shadow, like stardust, fluttered and drifted down, merging into the illusory and hazy realm below, which resembled a vast lake.

A noble, clear, yet austere sentiment spread out.

Immediately afterwards, at the heart of the illusion, a gigantic blue lotus burst forth, obscuring the sky and the sun.

The lotus petals unfurled, their dazzling blue light piercing the sky and almost piercing through this illusory realm.

Deep in the sky, the phantom images of the seven stars symbolizing the Big Dipper were projected out, and seven incredibly thick silver starlight beams fell precisely, crisscrossing and instantly weaving into a huge starlight net, forcibly locking the charging ice phoenix within it, causing its movements to suddenly slow down.

Almost at the same time that the beam of light from the Big Dipper fell, a deep and long dragon roar resounded from the depths of the inverted "lake".

A giant silver dragon that had been lying coiled and sleeping suddenly opened its enormous eyes, which shone like stars.

The enormous dragon body stirred the "lake" water, broke through the misty waves, and soared fiercely into the sky.

The silver dragon soared, its body shrouded in silver starlight, verdant life radiance, and pale blue water vapor. Its unparalleled aura swept across all directions, heading straight for the trapped ice phoenix.

This is the ultimate skill of a divine sword from a 50,000-year-old soul ring, and now, under Chen Xiaojun's full power, it is displaying 70% of its power.

The next moment, the silver dragon and the frost phoenix collided violently within the cage woven from the light of the Big Dipper.

The enormous dragon body and the icy phoenix body instantly became entangled in battle.

The clear, melodious roar of the dragon and the shrill, mournful cry of the phoenix reverberated simultaneously within the cage.

The silver dragon's body, forged from the combined elements of stars, wood, water, life, purification, and dragon, exudes a unique rhythm that cleanses impurities and purifies all things.

Each strike of the dragon's claws, each coiling and swirling of its body, created invisible ripples of purification.

Wherever this strange power reached, the structure of the Ice Phoenix's body, formed from highly condensed icy soul power, began to silently disintegrate. The Ice Phoenix mustered its remaining strength to spew out a chilling tide powerful enough to freeze soul bones, piling up a thick layer of ice on the silver dragon's scales.

However, the powerful purifying properties of the Silver Dragon Core were continuously eroding its foundation—the pure soul power that constituted the Ice Phoenix's massive body, which was rapidly stripped away, disintegrated, and turned into nothingness.

The enormous ice phoenix visibly shrank and weakened during the fierce battle.

Chen Xiaojun's calm words pierced through the roar of the battle and reached Shui Binglan's ears clearly.

"Do you want to continue?"

Shui Binglan's face was as pale as paper. The rapid dissipation of the core power of the Martial Soul Fusion Skill brought a violent backlash, causing an uncontrollable metallic taste to rise in her throat.

Her gaze swept unfocusedly across the battlefield: Yu Moxi and Shen Liujing were being forced to retreat under the pressure of their opponents; Xue Qingwu lay limp on the ground, exhausted; Yu Sheng Yuzuru and Gu Qingying were seriously injured and unable to get up again.

She looked up at the sky, where the ice phoenix, on which she had placed her hopes and which embodied the team's beliefs, was now tightly bound by the purifying silver dragon and the star cage. Its huge body was almost transparent, and the ice crystal-like soul power structure at its core was silently turning into dust and dissipating into nothingness.

Like a mirage, it is quietly dissipating into the air.

Shui Binglan's lips twitched, forming an extremely bitter and weak smile. Deep within that smile lay profound weariness, and her voice was as soft as a dream: "In the end, it didn't work..."

Then, facing the referee's table, she slowly and heavily lowered her head and clearly uttered two words: "I concede."

……

"A bosom friend afar brings a smile to the face of the world!"

"A bosom friend afar brings a smile to the face of the world!"

The crowd in the stands reserved for Chang'an Academy was in an uproar.

Fans beat drums with all their might, colorful flags waved, and loud cheers rose and fell, sweeping across the entire spectator area.

At the start, their momentum was overshadowed by the cheering contingent that performed the opening dance for the Tianshui team's figure skating performance.

Having won this battle, they naturally wanted to reclaim what belonged to the Chang'an team, using Chen Xiaojun's exclusive slogan, with an even more resounding cheer.

The atmosphere inside VIP box number 126 was also subtle.

Ji Bingyan looked down through the one-way glass at Yuzuru Hanyu being helped off the field, his steps unsteady: "Tianshui really went all out today, Hanyu's face was frighteningly pale."

"Is it because Tianshui Academy was defeated by our Icebound Academy in the provincial competition, and the duke's daughter lost to Ruoxi, so they want to beat Chang'an Academy here to prove themselves?"

Bai Zerun, who was leaning back in the soft sofa, pursed his lips upon hearing this: "Who knows?"

"It might be for the sake of the reputation of the entire Tianshui division, after all, their academy directly used the name 'Tianshui'."

Bai is a common surname. There is the Bai family of the Heavenly Star Furnace of the Heavenly Dou Academy, the Bai family of the Swift-tailed Swift of the Haotian Sect, the Bai family of the White Jade Toad of the Moon Palace, and now the Bai family of the Polar Bear of the Ice Palace.

He paused, his gaze sweeping over the figures being carried away. "As for Yuzuru, although he's usually a bit pretentious, with delicate skin, red lips and white teeth, and a bit of a sissy, he really went all out today."

"He has used the Blood Essence Secret Technique to fight desperately for the second time, and he has fought even more hard than in our provincial competition. He's a real man."

"Hmph, he's courting death." Ji Bingyan turned her gaze to Chen Xiaojun, who was standing in the arena with his sword. "If Xiao Hongchen hadn't cut down that phoenix with one sword, he would have been crippled."

"Hongchen, you truly live up to your title of Third Scholar, slaying two Soul Saint-level Ice Phoenixes in succession."

Bo Huaiyu had been watching the battle closely, his eyes focused: "Those two sword strikes of his were indeed extraordinary."

"The first sword strike was sharp and fierce, severing all grudges with a resolute determination; the second sword strike, with its soul skill intent, was only a hair's breadth away from perfection."

Zhan Ruoxi, whose expression remained icy and whose eyes held a chilling intent, uttered only four words: "The Sword Dao of the Chen Family."

Ji Bingyan's eyes flickered, and she looked at Bo Huaiyu with a hint of mischief: "Huaiyu, the foundation of your Bo family's existence is also the inheritance of swordsmanship."

"With the reputation of the 'Sword Dao Chen Family' at hand, we can't let anyone surpass us."

Bo Huaiyu smiled calmly upon hearing this, the curve of his lips revealing a thoughtful expression: "What is truly unfathomable is his martial spirit and soul skills."

"Since the start of the competition, he has used five different types of swords."

He paused, as if recalling something, "And do you remember when he held that Seven Star Sword, the 'Azure Lotus Divine Light' he released was a debuff-type soul skill?"

He stretched out his fingers and counted, "He has fast-attack type soul skills, and I've also seen defensive type ones. There are those that amplify our own side and those that debuff the opponent. This last sword strike, with its accompanying purification and elimination power... He seems to have encompassed all types of soul skill forms, without any weaknesses."

Bai Zerun, who was standing next to him, scratched his head and said in confusion, "What's so strange about that? Many soul masters have different types of soul skills."

Ji Bingyan glared at him irritably: "How can this be the same thing? The Sword God Pearl is ranked number one on the Weapon Ranking, a so-called 'hexagonal warrior,' with an impeccable combination of soul skills. This is how he should be."

Bo Huaiyu turned his gaze back to the dazzling young couple in the arena, a burning light flashing in his eyes: "Alright, there's no point in discussing this."

He tapped lightly on the glass window with his finger. "One is the champion of the Weapon Ranking, and the other is number one on the Senluo Scroll."

"The two gems of Chang'an live up to their reputation; we eagerly await their battle."
