Chapter 361 Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Snowflakes Falling (Part 2)

She's a control-type? Hearing this, Dai Mubai couldn't help but glance at Tang San beside him, thinking to himself, "Little San, it seems you've met your match this time."

Tang San remained calm, and it wasn't easy to glean anything from his expression.

"Shui Yue'er, a level 36 agility-attack type battle spirit master." Standing next to Shui Bing'er, the short-haired girl who looked somewhat like her and had previously shown great interest in Dai Mubai took the initiative to introduce herself. She and Shui Bing'er were half-sisters, though their hair colors were different.

"Huh?" Dai Mubai was stunned, and Shui Bing'er was also somewhat taken aback. It was enough for both captains to state their situation as a sign of respect. This was a competition, not a friendly spar. Shui Yue'er's words suddenly seemed abrupt.

After Shui Yue'er finished speaking, she realized something was wrong, and a blush immediately appeared on her pretty face. However, this girl was obviously very generous and did not hide her interest in Dai Mubai at all. She stared straight at him with her big eyes.

In the past, Dai Mubai would never have refused a beautiful woman, especially one who was a Soul Master, who was offered to him so readily. But things were different now; there was also a Netherworld Cat watching from below the stage. The relationship between the two had finally improved somewhat, and if it were to erupt again, Dai Mubai really didn't know how he would live his life afterward.

Therefore, faced with the other party's initiative to show goodwill, Dai Mubai could only keep his eyes down, his nose down, his mouth down, and his mind down, maintaining the appearance of a virtuous gentleman.

To avoid making the other person too embarrassed, Tang San gently nudged Xiao Wu beside him. Xiao Wu immediately understood, "Xiao Wu, a level 38 agility-type battle spirit master."

The referee, not wanting to delay any longer, announced, "Both sides, prepare. You may release your martial spirits now."

Dai Mubai and Shui Bing'er raised their heads almost simultaneously. Dai Mubai's evil eyes flashed with a sharp light, and his aura changed instantly. He released a sudden pressure like a tiger descending the mountain. Relying on his advantage in soul power, he immediately made the seven girls in front of him feel awe.

The Shrek team immediately entered battle formation, with the three main attackers in front, Tang San in the middle, Xiao Wu and Jing Ling on his left and right, and Jiang Zhu providing support at the rear.

Their opponents, Tianshui Academy, had a formation very similar to theirs: three girls at the front, Shui Bing'er in the middle, Shui Yue'er and another agility-based girl on either side of her, and a girl with long black hair and a pale face standing at the very back.

The two sides released their martial spirits almost simultaneously, instantly revealing their overall strength.

To Dai Mubai and Tang San's surprise, the strength of Tianshui Academy was even greater than they had anticipated. Because of the daily competitions, they hadn't had time to observe their opponents, and Grandmaster had deliberately withheld any information from them. Therefore, they only knew that Tianshui Academy was composed entirely of female students, and that their strength was all water-attribute; they knew nothing else.

At this moment, when both sides released their spirit rings simultaneously, the strength of Tianshui Academy was immediately revealed.

Besides Shui Bing'er, who was level 43, there were two other Soul Masters above level 40. One was one of the three offensive Soul Masters standing at the front, and the other was the black-haired girl standing at the back of their group.

Although the colors of their spirit rings are different, the seven members of Tianshui Academy all have the same spirit color: light blue.

Shui Bing'er was enveloped in a hazy blue light, a dazzling blue aura floating behind her with a touch of mesmerizing blur. Even Tang San couldn't discern what her martial soul was. He could only sense an incredibly powerful aura.

The three front-line offensive Soul Masters also had strange Martial Souls. They all had some fine scales on certain parts of their bodies. These were not dragon scales or anything like that, but rather fish scales.

Of the two agility-type battle spirit masters, Shui Yue'er's martial spirit gave her skin a bright glaze, while the other agility-type battle spirit master's skin turned completely blue.

The Shrek Academy team members exchanged bewildered glances. This was the first time they'd encountered such an opponent; they couldn't even discern what their opponent's martial soul was. Although they hadn't even made a move yet, they were already clearly at a disadvantage.

"The match begins," the referee announced immediately after seeing that both sides had released their martial spirits.

"Attack!" With a simple command from Tang San, Dai Mubai, Tailong, and Huang Yuan charged forward simultaneously. Unable to discern their opponent's martial soul, they would probe through direct combat. Only in battle could they gain a clearer understanding.

Xiao Wu and Jing Ling simultaneously circled around from both sides, while Tang San followed closely behind the three who had launched the attack, tying five strands of Blue Silver Grass around their waists at the same time. Even if the opponent possessed great explosive power, he could help his teammates retreat in the first instance.

As Dai Mubai and his two companions charged forward, the three offensive-type Soul Masters from Tianshui Academy also moved. However, neither side immediately unleashed their Soul Skills, instead pressing forward against their opponent's pressure.

Two fixed gazes drew Tang San's attention, and the instant their eyes met, he immediately sensed something was amiss. Instead of defending himself, he activated his first skill, Entanglement.

The three binding spells were released simultaneously, targeting the three front-line offensive Soul Masters of the opponent. Since he last sensed the aura of wild Blue Silver Grass, his own application of Blue Silver Grass had become much stronger than before.

This first skill, Entanglement, can be instantly cast in any corner within the range of one's soul power control.

Just as Tang San activated his first soul skill, Shui Bing'er's first soul ring also lit up.

A flash of icy blue light, and Tang San felt a chill run through his body. His forward momentum came to an abrupt halt, and he was frozen solid. Dai Mubai, Huang Yuan, and Tai Long were also frozen at the same time.

Although this was only her first soul skill, the fact that she unleashed it four times in an instant was enough to demonstrate Shui Bing'er's formidable control over her own soul skills.

Both sides' offensive-type Soul Masters were simultaneously controlled by the other side. However, the difference was that Shrek Academy's side also had their control-type Soul Masters controlled.

Shui Bing'er's second spirit ring lit up immediately after the first one, releasing a total of five ice rings that enveloped the three power-attack type and two agility-attack type spirit masters of Tianshui Academy.

A miraculous scene unfolded: the five Soul Masters shrouded in ice rings suddenly gained a layer of crystalline blue armor. As the three offensive Soul Masters exerted their power simultaneously, the Blue Silver Grass on their bodies began to crack.

Boom—, a cloud of ice powder scattered everywhere. It's in moments like these that you can see who's stronger. Before his three powerful offensive Soul Masters could break free from the Blue Silver Grass's entanglement, the ice binding Dai Mubai had already turned into ice powder. With a loud shout, he unleashed both the White Tiger Protective Barrier and the White Tiger Blazing Light Wave skills simultaneously.

The White Tiger Protective Barrier was applied to himself, while the White Tiger Blazing Light Wave bypassed the three offensive-type Soul Masters and headed straight for Shui Bing'er.

"Snow Dance, begin." Shui Bing'er remained calm in the face of Dai Mubai's attack. After giving the order, she calmly cast a second soul skill on herself, instantly creating a layer of ice armor on her body.

When Dai Mubai's White Tiger Blazing Light Wave reached her, the blue light that had previously appeared behind her was suddenly released and merged with the ice armor on Shui Bing'er's body.

With a bang, Shui Bing'er only took a step back, but was not hurt at all.

The Blue Silver Grass broke free, and Huang Yuan and Tai Long also broke free of the ice one after another. Tang San broke free of his restraints even faster than them. However, the moment he broke free of the ice, Shui Bing'er's first soul skill descended once more. He was frozen again before he even had a chance to recover.

Tailong was a strength-type Soul Master. Facing his opponent, a tall female Soul Master, he swung his hand and grabbed at her. Since his opponent was a girl, he couldn't bring himself to use excessive force. Unleashing his full power, he believed that no Soul Master of the same level could match his strength. Of course, even Tang San could only overcome his power through skill.

The female Soul Master he faced also raised her hand without dodging. Her body shone with blue light, and her first Soul Ring shone brightly. The scales that had only appeared on one side of her cheek instantly spread to every part of her body. At the same time, her second Soul Ring also lit up, and a huge ball of blue light rose from her chest and crashed into Tailong's chest.

Faced with his opponent's attack, Tailong changed his grabbing motion to slapping, striking the opponent's shoulder. Because his soul skill was entirely internalized, its activation speed was faster than any other soul master, so as soon as the opponent's attack was completed, his hand also slapped the opponent's shoulder.

He managed to land the blow, but it felt strange to Talon, as if he had struck a slippery block of ice; most of his force was neutralized. The blue light erupted in front of his chest, the powerful impact sending Talon's tall, muscular body flying.

The girl was also not doing well. She had underestimated Talon's power. Although she greatly weakened Talon's attack with her first soul skill, some of his power still affected her.

With a muffled groan, he stumbled back several steps, half of his body already paralyzed.

As the two sides began to clash, the black-haired girl at the very back of the Tianshui Academy team also started to move. Strangely, she wasn't attacking; instead, she simply began to dance in place.
