Douluo Continent: I, Long Aotian, will not be a supporting character.

In mid-air, golden light scattered everywhere. Wherever it went, the granite floor of the Soul Battle Platform was scattered like scraps of paper under the impact of the golden light and the immense force. The loud noises were like thunderclaps in a clear sky, deafening.

In an instant, the impact of their weapons destroyed most of the fighting arena.

Immediately afterwards, Jin Ni and Long Aotian's bodies collided again. Jin Ni held the Golden Dragon Spear, thrusting and parrying with ease and grace, her movements agile and elegant.

Meanwhile, Long Aotian, wielding the Devouring Heaven Blade, slashed and blocked with both left and right, his offense and defense well-organized, as steady as Mount Tai, and he fought Jin Ni with great enthusiasm.

However, after more than a dozen rounds of fighting, both sides were using their own power and weapons, without using the power of any of their spirit rings.

They fought for more than ten rounds, and were evenly matched in terms of strength and weaponry.

Jin Ni took a few steps back and said, "This is boring. It's been a draw the whole time. Let's compare our soul skills next."

As she spoke, a flash of golden light appeared, and the Golden Dragon Spear vanished, its whereabouts unknown, as Jin Ni had somehow managed to retrieve it.

Seeing this, Long Aotian also put away the Devouring Heaven Blade.

"Take this!"

Jin Ni spread her arms wide, let out a dragon's roar, and her third soul ring lit up.

"Third Soul Skill, Golden Dragon Head."

On her right fist appeared a dragon head, a golden dragon head, solid as a physical entity, looking as if it were truly carved from gold, carrying a sharp aura that could shatter everything.

Advance, throw a punch.

The Golden Dragon Girl's attack was that simple and direct.

Long Aotian's first and second spirit rings lit up simultaneously, "Golden Madness, Golden Condensation".

With the amplification effect of the boiling golden blood energy, Long Aotian solidified his right hand into a Heaven-Shaking Hammer and smashed it down towards the golden dragon's head.

The golden hammer clashed head-on with the golden dragon's head.

The two sides clashed repeatedly, throwing hammers at each other.

Long Aotian and Jin Ni gazed at each other across the golden light.

Long Aotian suddenly noticed that Jin Ni's pupils had changed from normal pupils to two thin lines.

"Vertical pupils!" Dragons have vertical pupils.

For a Soul Master, the closer the transformation of their Martial Soul is to the Martial Soul itself when they unleash it, the stronger their control over the Martial Soul's abilities.

At this moment, the change in Jin Ni's pupils undoubtedly demonstrated her control over the Golden Dragon Martial Soul.

Jin Ni's first and second spirit rings flashed simultaneously.

"Golden Dragon Body! Golden Dragon Power!" Two amplification-type soul skills were unleashed.

The aura of the golden dragon head intensified once more.

Long Aotian's third spirit ring flashed, "Dark Gold Protection," a ten-thousand-year-old third spirit ring, and it came from a super spirit beast like the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, so the spirit skill effect was naturally extraordinary.

Long Aotian's overall defense was greatly enhanced, allowing him to block Jin Ni's attack.

Immediately afterwards, Jin Ni's first, second, and third spirit rings began to flash simultaneously, but she did not activate any skills. Instead, the first and second spirit rings surged towards the third spirit ring, as if trying to merge with it.

Two purple spirit rings slowly merged into the third spirit ring, and Jin Ni's aura became increasingly intense. Jin Ni's long, wavy golden hair and plain dress fluttered even without wind.

Finally, the first two spirit rings were completely integrated into the third black spirit ring, which looked even deeper in color.

"Fusion ring?"

Long Aotian's eyes narrowed involuntarily.

Ring Fusion is not a combat skill, but a talent, which only a few extremely special Soul Masters can possess.

Fusion Ring is the simultaneous release of the soul power that can be released when using several soul skills in an instant. It can also be described as releasing a large amount of soul power in an instant to use a single soul skill.

The biggest advantage of ring fusion is its explosive power. When ring fusion is active, one's soul power can be maximized, and the power of the soul skills used at this time will undoubtedly be multiplied.

The golden dragon head condensed again in Jin Ni's hand. This time, the golden dragon head that Jin Ni released no longer had a sharp feel, but rather a condensed and explosive one.

After releasing the golden dragon head, Jin Ni's face turned deathly pale, and she even swayed precariously, clearly indicating that her soul power had been greatly depleted.

The golden dragon head swiftly tore through the air towards Long Aotian.

As Long Aotian sensed the explosive power contained within the golden dragon head, three spirit rings on his body simultaneously shone.

With the support of the first soul skill, Golden Frenzy, and the third soul skill, Dark Gold Protection, the second soul skill, Golden Condensation, simultaneously condenses the Heaven-Slaying Scythe and the Heaven-Shaking Hammer in both hands.

Long Aotian crossed his arms, combining the Heaven-Shaking Hammer and the Heaven-Slaying Scythe, and shouted, "The Ultimate Technique of Hammer and Scythe Combination Strike - Revolutionizing Heaven's Fate!"

The Heaven-Shaking Hammer and the Heaven-Slaying Scythe crossed together, and a force that pressed down on the air and made a hissing sound rushed toward the golden dragon head after the rings were fused together.

The crossed Heaven-Shaking Hammer and Heaven-Slaying Scythe collided with the Golden Dragon Head, triggering an explosive power within the Golden Dragon Head. A series of booming sounds followed, and at the center of the impact, an elemental storm suddenly erupted.

The impact created a crater more than five meters in diameter and two meters deep on the ground, demonstrating just how much force was concentrated in that previous collision.

The powerful shockwave from the explosion spread outwards from the Soul Arena. Jin Ni, whose soul power was already exhausted, was powerless to resist the shockwave and was directly thrown back.

Long Aotian was closer to the explosion's epicenter than Jin Ni. His clothes were torn to shreds, but fortunately, he was thick-skinned and had excellent defense, so he wasn't seriously injured. However, his soul power was almost completely drained, leaving him looking rather disheveled.

Upon seeing Jin Ni being blasted away by the shockwave, Long Aotian, without hesitation, channeled the last of his soul power to resist the explosive force and desperately charged forward.

Finally, just as Jin Ni was about to fall and crash to the ground, Long Aotian caught her. With his last bit of soul power exhausted, Long Aotian could no longer hold on and fell from the sky with Jin Ni. Before falling, Long Aotian flipped over to shield Jin Ni in front of him, while he himself fell backward onto the ground, and the two of them fell to the ground together.

Exhausted of his soul power, Long Aotian slammed hard into the ground. A sharp pain shot through him, causing him to grimace in pain.

Jin Ni's beautiful eyes swept over Long Aotian as she said, "Human, I told you, you really are a good person."

At the same time, a blush flashed across Jin Ni's face, but it quickly disappeared.

Upon hearing Jin Ni's words, Long Aotian momentarily forgot his pain and grinned.

The two teachers, Lord Grim and Orange Breeze, rushed onto the Soul Battle Stage immediately.
