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

Otherwise, given Vina's level of mental strength, under the full impact of the Sword of Emotional Annihilation—Emotional Heaven-Shattering—Murong Shi would at best become an idiot, and at worst die directly.

This is just a competition. There is no life-or-death feud between the two sides. Why create unnecessary bloodshed? Vina only made Murong Shi lose his fighting ability.

Everyone in the spectator stands stared in disbelief at this scene. From the start to the end of the battle, less than a minute had passed! Vina, without even using a single spirit ring, had instantly killed the four-ring spirit master Murong Shi solely through her terrifying mental power, the enhancement of her Purple Demon Eye and the Sword of Emotional Annihilation!

Vina slowly sheathed the Amorous Sword and the Heartless Sword, the purple divine light in her eyes gradually fading.

The referee declared Vina the winner, leaving Dragon Soul Academy with only two participants.

Long Aotian also removed Vina from the Soul Arena. In fact, Vina had basically not suffered any damage and could have continued to fight against the remaining contestants from Dragon Soul Academy on the Soul Arena.

However, the remaining participants from Dragon Soul Academy are the captain and vice-captain of the Dragon Soul Academy team, the brothers Qian Gu Jue and Qian Gu Jin. The Evil-Slaying Dragon Soul in their Panlong Staff martial soul will unleash an indomitable spirit, which can amplify the wielder and often allow the master of the Panlong Staff to exert strength beyond his own.

Vina's mental attacks might not be able to suppress them, and besides that, Vina didn't have any other means of attack. In case Vina got injured, Long Aotian called Vina down.

The Imperial Academy still has three spots available for battle. Long Aotian, Jin Ni, and Wei Huang have not yet played, which should be enough to deal with the opposing team's Qian Gu Brothers.

Vihuang volunteered to fight. From the start of the competition to the quarterfinals, they have already played more than ten matches, but none of the members of the main team have played yet. They are itching to play.

Before going on stage, Vivian also brought a jade lotus heart from Vina.

Dragon Soul Team Vice Captain Qian Gu Jin was the first to take the stage.

Dragon Soul Academy is currently at a disadvantage, hence Qian Gu Jin's solemn expression. He and his brother Qian Gu Jue must defeat all three remaining members of Di'ao Academy in order to win the one-on-one battle.

On the Soul Battle Stage, the air seemed to distort slightly as if scorched by the intense heat. Wei Huang and Qian Gu Jin faced off across the void, one side exuding the chilling battle intent of clashing swords and galloping horses, the other radiating the ancient and boundless domineering power of a dragon.

With the referee's whistle, Qian Gu Jin was the first to launch an attack.

The first spirit ring on the Coiled Dragon Staff suddenly lit up, and a low shout rang out: "First Spirit Skill, Coiled Dragon Strike!"

In an instant, the dragon-patterned staff in his hand flew out, its blade swelling in the wind and transforming into a golden streak of light, accompanied by a piercing shriek that tore through the air, hurtling straight toward Wei Huang's chest. This strike was as fast as lightning, sealing off any space for Wei Huang to dodge to the left or right.

Vi Huang remained unmoved, releasing his martial spirit, a layer of golden, illusory figures slowly covering his entire body. It was the phantom of an ancient warrior clad in tattered armor, radiating an aura of unwavering resolve. Facing the whistling Dragon Staff hurtling towards him, Vi Huang's third spirit ring shone brightly—"Third Spirit Skill, Vajra Divine Power!"

In an instant, the golden light around his body surged, the illusory battle spirit perfectly overlapping with his physical form, his arm muscles bulged, and a bronze metallic luster appeared on his skin. He made a fist with one hand, and immense soul power and pure battle intent condensed in his right hand.

"Clang—!" The sound of metal clashing resounded throughout the arena. The terrifying impact of Panlong's Strike was steadily received by Wei Huang. Although the ground beneath his feet cracked instantly, he did not take a single step back. Instead, he used the force of the recoil to activate his first soul ring—"First Soul Skill, Battle Soul Possession!" Golden battle intent solidified instantly, and Wei Huang seemed to become even more majestic. He used his hand as a hammer and smashed it towards Qian Gujin's face.

"Such powerful strength!" Qian Gu Jin was shocked, but he reacted quickly. His second soul ring lit up, and the Panlong Staff instantly returned to his hand. The dragon soul on the staff awakened, and a heavy pressure swept out—"Second Soul Skill, Panlong Breath!"

Suddenly, the dragon head phantoms at both ends of the Panlong Staff opened their mouths and spewed out a blazing dragon breath, instantly forming a barrier between the two, forcing Wei Huang to temporarily suspend his attack.

Immediately afterwards, Qian Gu Jin's figure suddenly rose up, and his third soul skill "Panlong Ascending to Heaven" was activated. His whole body was wrapped in the power of the dragon soul and soared into the sky. From his high position, countless dragon soul phantoms rose in the sky above the martial arts arena, forming an all-round suppression on Wei Huang.

Vi Huang roared to the sky, and the golden battle spirit phantom behind him seemed to come alive, letting out a silent howl. His second spirit ring suddenly shone brightly—"Second Spirit Skill, Battle Spirit Charge!"

Vi Huang was like a cannonball launched from a gun, transforming into a dazzling stream of light as he launched a desperate charge against the countless phantoms of dragon souls filling the sky.

"Boom!" Energy collided wildly in mid-air, the dragon soul was torn apart by the battle intent, and golden light and shadows flew everywhere.

Qian Gu Jin witnessed this and a ruthless glint flashed in his eyes. He gripped the Panlong Staff tightly with both hands, and his fourth soul ring suddenly lit up—"Fourth Soul Skill, Panlong Storm!" The Panlong Staff spun rapidly in his hands, and countless staff shadows with a dark golden luster crisscrossed and swung out, densely filling the space, transforming into a destructive tornado storm that blocked all of Wei Huang's evasion routes.

Wei Huang snorted coldly, and his fourth soul ring shone brightly—"Fourth Soul Skill, Undying Battle Soul!" He simultaneously waved his arms, creating an impenetrable golden light screen. His entire body transformed into a golden stream of light, actually tearing a gap in the destructive tornado storm and directly approaching Qian Gu Jin's true form.

"Trying to suppress me with skill? Not enough!" Vi Huang shouted, and his fifth spirit ring suddenly shone brightly—"Fifth Spirit Skill, Iron-Blooded Battle Intent!"

In an instant, the golden battle spirit phantom on Wei Huang's body expanded several times in size, and a tangible, blood-red battle intent soared into the sky. Wei Huang's eyes turned crimson, and he seemed to transform from a warrior into a killing god on the battlefield. With the support of this iron-blooded battle intent, the speed of his soul power circulation increased dramatically, and every punch he threw carried terrifying power capable of splitting mountains and shattering rocks.

Qian Gu Jin felt unprecedented pressure. He roared and his fifth soul ring lit up—"Fifth Soul Skill, Coiling Dragon Roar!" A mental attack superimposed with the might of a dragon, accompanied by a deafening dragon roar, crashed down on Wei Huang like a tangible tsunami, attempting to directly shatter Wei Huang's fighting will.

Faced with this dual impact on both mind and body, Wei Huang's fighting spirit surged, and he poured out all his soul power without reservation. He raised his right fist high, and a simple yet powerful punch, imbued with the ultimate martial will, carrying the domineering power of "Diamond Divine Power" and the frenzy of "Iron-Blooded Fighting Spirit," slammed fiercely towards Qian Gu Jin.
