Backyard Battlefield
The force attacking this place was not the Heavenly Fighting Knights, whose forces were limited. Instead, it consisted of the guards of the Sunset Great Battle Arena and the Imperial Guards of the Sunset Medicine Market.

As one of the initiators of the joint operation, Fighting Soul City naturally had to assume corresponding battlefield responsibilities and contribute its forces.

The forwards were Xue Dingshi and Yang Guisan.

As the younger sister of Schrödinger of the Xue family, Schrödinger was in charge of the Xue family's affairs in the north. Schrödinger's cultivation level was very high, reaching the level 88 high-level Soul Douluo realm.

At this moment, Xue Dingshi was fully activating the "Blazing Light Technique," and his entire being seemed to transform into a miniature blazing sun.

A dazzling, scorching, and domineering radiance, capable of incinerating all evil, suddenly erupted from her body, shooting straight into the sky and instantly tearing apart the gloomy sky in the backyard.

The dazzling light did not dissipate; instead, under Xue Dingshi's precise control, it rapidly reversed and converged into the tip of her raised sword fingers.

Under the impetus of the "Bright Light Sword Technique", the immense soul power instantly solidified, and an enormous, blazing white light sword made entirely of condensed light elements took shape in her palm.

Without any fancy moves, Schrödinger wielded the Sword of Light and swept it fiercely towards the Black Armored Legion's basic combat unit—the Black Armored Warriors (mostly Soul Masters and Soul Sect Masters)—who were blocking his way and were clad in black and red scales!
Where the lightsaber passed, a domineering and destructive energy burst forth, scorching and distorting the air in its path.

The black-armored warriors who formed a dense defensive array had their heavy scale armor melt like wax in the face of this purifying flame. Amidst screams, a large area of ​​black-armored warriors melted and carbonized, leaving them either dead or crippled, instantly clearing a fan-shaped vacuum zone.

Following closely behind Schrödinger was Yang Guisan, level 83, who shouted in a low voice, "Fifth Soul Skill - Shatter!"

The spirit rings shone, and in an instant, hundreds of energy spear shadows condensed from pure spirit power appeared out of thin air, raining down on the enemy lines in front of them.

What's even more chilling is that when these energy guns detonate upon impact, they release a violent shockwave—the "echo" effect activates, creating a small-scale secondary soul energy tremor that inflicts continuous damage on surrounding enemies.

This widespread damage, combined with Schrödinger's lightsaber breaking through the formation, created wave after wave of devastating attacks.

Behind these two formidable weapons are the Great Battle Arena Guards led by Chen Qingrui (who has not yet officially completed the handover of his duties) and Chen Gushan, the Minister of Security, as well as Xia Lechuan (Lotus), the General Manager of the Sunset Great Battle Arena, and Fei Shen (Owl), the Garrison Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

Under the pressure of Xue and Yang's breakthrough, the mixed force quickly followed up, attempting to breach the rear defenses in one fell swoop.

Their enemies consist mainly of the Black Armored Gang, some skilled members of the Bao family, and ordinary guards they recruited.

Faced with Xue Dingshi's all-purifying light sword and Yang Guisan's rain-like Soul-Shattering Spear shadows, these defensive forces appeared extremely weak.

The Bao family's defensive line, built upon fortifications and the terrain of the manor, along with the Black Armored Men's fearless yet somewhat cumbersome resistance, were steadily pushed back by this powerful group attack soul skill.

Although the casualties were not enough to immediately cause a complete collapse, and the formation was not completely torn apart, thanks to their numbers, terrain, and the barely held on with the help of some family defensive soul skills, they were only managing to hold on by constantly retreating and their tenacity (or rather, their fear of orders) under such a ferocious offensive, and signs of defeat were already emerging.

However, the Dark Legion sent strong reinforcements.

A chilling gust of wind swept by, accompanied by a low growl and heavy footsteps. A squad of over fifty Black Nether Guards swiftly and aggressively entered the rear battlefield. This elite squad of Soul Kings all had bloodshot eyes and a fierce aura.

Also appearing were several powerful leaders at the Soul Emperor and Soul Saint levels.

What's even more chilling are the four figures that follow closely behind—the immense dark soul power fluctuations reveal their identities: Soul Douluo!
The four were none other than: "Viper Dagger," whose figure was strange and glided like a shadow; "Dark Wind Spear," wielding a spear swirling with ominous black wind and exuding a fierce aura; "Dark Fire Lizard," whose body was covered with a carapace that resembled molten obsidian and whose aura was a mixture of heat and darkness; and finally, "Iron Blood Devouring Axe," the most burly and muscular man, carrying a massive axe with a blood groove wider than a door panel and exuding a violent aura.

Four Soul Douluos joined the battle, and the situation in the backyard was instantly reversed!

The Dark Fire Lizard Soul Douluo let out a deep roar, and its dark red lava carapace erupted with astonishing heat as it lunged at Schrödinger.

At the same time, the figure of the Viper Dagger Soul Douluo moved like a ghost through the gaps in the flashing light and shadow, and his deadly attacks were insidiously aimed at Schrödinger's weak points in defense or spellcasting.

The two, one using orthodox methods and the other unorthodox ones, worked together to tightly entangle the radiant Xue Dingshi.

Although Schrödinger's lightsaber was incredibly powerful, the Dark Fire Lizard's "Erosion Lava Armor" was extremely resistant to light power, and its high-temperature splashes even threatened Schrödinger. Furthermore, the venomous dagger's elusive and persistent attacks prevented her from focusing on supporting other areas.

On the other side, just as Yang Guisan was about to use the Soul-Breaking Spear Formation to suppress the enemy again, the Dark Wind Spear, a spear wrapped in black evil wind, thrust straight at him like a poisonous dragon emerging from its cave, its tip emitting a piercing shriek that seemed to tear through the air!

Yang Guisan had no choice but to interrupt his group attack and turn his Soul-Breaking Spear to meet the attack head-on.

"Clang—!" A deafeningly loud sound rang out, and a terrifying shockwave exploded where the two men's spears clashed. Spear tips met spear points, sparks flew, and soul power surged, instantly clearing an area.

A pure offensive weapon spirit duel unfolded between the two, and Yang Guisan could no longer pay attention to the overall situation of the battlefield.

The most dangerous situation is occurring in the direction of the enemy's vanguard!

After receiving reinforcements, the Black Nether forces immediately stabilized their retreat.

Meanwhile, Qiu Ba, the most ferocious level 85 Iron-Blooded Axe Soul Douluo, seized the opportunity when the enemy's elite forces were all tied up. A fierce crimson light flashed in his eyes, and he let out a deafening roar. He swung his blood-grooved giant axe with both hands, and a violent, bloodthirsty battle intent rose around him. He directly led the elite Black Nether Guard squadron that had come to support him and launched a fierce counterattack against the core force led by Chen Qingrui, Xia Lechuan, and others.

If this person were left unchecked and were to enter the battle, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The situation was critical. As the nominal highest commander and the highest-ranking level 76 Soul Saint in the area, Chen Qingrui could only grit his teeth, steel himself, and gather all his soul power as Qiu Ba charged towards him like a ferocious humanoid beast, shouting, "Hold on! Form a defensive formation!"

He faced the massive blood axe, which carried the power of destruction, all by himself. The huge difference in strength left Chen Qingrui with no confidence, but duty called, and there was no way to retreat.

……

The character list in the previous section was incorrect; I forgot to update it. Chen Qingrui was already a Soul Saint four years ago, so it should be changed to level 76. Chen Yinzu is level 77.
