The Glory of the Sun and Moon in the Peerless Tang Sect

While everyone's thoughts raced, Wang Dong swung his Haotian Hammer with his right hand, colliding with the spear tip that the Spear Soul Venerable was thrusting at him.

"Om-"

Although Wang Dong's second martial soul, the Clear Sky Hammer, didn't have any spirit ring skills attached, its weight increased steadily as his spirit power grew. While the hammer itself appeared relatively unchanged, its weight had reached a terrifying 500 jin (approximately 250 kg).

As a top-tier offensive weapon spirit, the Clear Sky Hammer is naturally incomparable to that spear.

The terrifying weight, along with the immense recoil, caused the spear-wielding Soul Master's tiger's mouth to go numb, and his body stumbled backward.

Wang Dong had just found a place to vent his frustration when, in the next moment, the space around his body suddenly distorted, and enormous pressure compressed inward.

In the distance, Luo Chen's handsome face was adorned with a faint smile, and his third spirit ring flickered beside him.

Third Soul Skill: Spatial Lock.

Like Cao Jinxuan's Time Lock, this kind of rule-based soul skill is not so easy to break free from. Moreover, it is a skill with a thousand-year soul ring.

The Lion Soul Master and the Spear Soul Master launched another attack. No matter how frustrated Wang Dong felt, he was ultimately destined to be eliminated.

Wang Dong, rescued by Elder Xuan, was pounding his chest, his eyes practically spitting fire. Even when he lost to Yu Tianhuang, he hadn't felt this bad. At least Yu Tianhuang had crushed him with sheer strength.

However, when he noticed the surprised and suspicious looks in everyone's eyes, a faint sense of superiority rose in his heart, which made him feel a little better.

Old Xuan glanced at Wang Dong with a smile, then looked away, stuffing the chicken leg in his hand into his mouth while looking towards the center of the field.

He knew that Wang Dong came from the Haotian Sect. Although Wang Dong also had twin martial souls, which was a bit unexpected, he was not too surprised.

The layout of the arena has changed once again, with three teams of three standing in different corners.

Under everyone's gaze, Luo Chen slowly stepped forward, her eyes meeting Xu Zihuang's, her expression a mixture of melancholy and longing.

"Junior Brother Yu, I know I am no match for you. But I want to experience firsthand the difference between us. Regardless of the outcome, I will voluntarily withdraw from this core disciple selection competition."

His two companions couldn't help but look at Luo Chen in surprise, but neither of them said anything.

In any case, they are no match for Yu Tianhuang's team and Bei Bei's team. Luo Chen's voluntary withdrawal actually benefits them. They only need to compete for the last spot.

"Senior Luo, as you wish." Xu Zihuang smiled slightly.

He could see the openness in Luo Chen's eyes; this was the heart of a true strongman.

Xu Zihuang's gaze sharpened, and the purple-gold light that flickered deep in his eyes vanished in an instant.

No one in the arena felt anything, but Luo Chen's face turned deathly pale.

"I see. Junior Brother Yu, I'm completely convinced." After calming himself down, Luo Chen smiled nonchalantly and turned to leave the area.

All his soul skills are activated by locking onto his mental power, but just now his mental power was suppressed by Yu Tianhuang.

At that moment, he understood that he had lost completely.

"We are about to touch the level of tangible yet intangible spiritual power." Only Elder Xuan murmured to himself.

"This little guy's talent is truly astonishing."

Aside from Luo Chen, who experienced it firsthand, only Elder Xuan, a top-tier expert with a soul power cultivation level of ninety-eight, could discern the intricacies involved.

However, the selection process, which was thought to be a foregone conclusion, took an unexpected turn.

Xu Zihuang slowly walked to the center of the field, looked at Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi standing on the north side of the field, and smiled gently.

"Senior Brother Bei, Senior Brother Xu, have you ever lost?"

His voice was calm, but everyone present was unconsciously infected by the confidence in it.

Chapter 151 The Clash Between Ultimate Lightning and Radiant Lightning

The crowd, who had been drawn to Wang Dong's revelation of his second martial soul, the Clear Sky Hammer, all turned their attention to the ethereal young man standing in the center of the arena.

Everyone present, having become a core disciple of Shrek Academy, possessed their own sense of pride.

But honestly, do they have the confidence to say that?

Who dares to claim invincibility? Who dares to say they are undefeated?

But when Yu Tianhuang said those words, they couldn't raise a single question in their hearts. This was especially true for Dai Huabin, Wang Dong, Xiao Xiao, Zhou Sichen, and Cao Jinxuan, who were second-year core disciples who had faced Yu Tianhuang during the freshman assessment.

Dai Huabin clenched his fists, and as he slowly released his grip, the resentment in his eyes gradually faded away, as he seemed to be thinking about something.

Deeply moved, he realized that his elimination was ultimately due to his own lack of strength. If he possessed the strength of Yu Tianhuang, he wouldn't be standing outside the arena right now.

Instead of complaining and blaming others, you should work hard to improve your own abilities.

"Next time, I will definitely close the gap between us," Dai Huabin secretly resolved in his heart.

Even he himself didn't realize that since his repeated setbacks with Yu Tianhuang, his temperament had become much calmer and more peaceful. And this change would surely benefit him for the rest of his life.

Wang Dong was also deeply moved. The arrogance in his eyes was replaced by a thoughtful gleam, but the sense of superiority he had developed since childhood due to his amazing talent and profound background was not so easily erased.

Both he and Dai Huabin were scions of large families who were used to looking down on their peers, but the difference was that after being crushed by Yu Tianhuang, Dai Huabin's sense of superiority had vanished, and he learned to reflect on himself.

Wang Dong, however, remained immersed in the superiority of having twin martial souls.

Under normal circumstances, the advantage of having twin martial souls over ordinary soul masters is enormous. Moreover, in his view, Yu Tianhuang's soul ring configuration is not anything too shocking.

With his physical strength, he could also absorb a ten-thousand-year soul ring at level forty.

Wang Dong's pride is ingrained in his bones, and it would be difficult to change unless he encountered a huge setback that made him doubt himself.

Perhaps his personality isn't that bad, but he doesn't know how to restrain himself, so he's destined to have very few truly close friends.

As for Xiao Xiao, Zhou Sichen, and the other eliminated second-year core disciples, their feelings were similar; they all had a blind confidence in Yu Tianhuang. After all, the impression Yu Tianhuang had left on them by directly killing a ten-thousand-year-old human-faced demon spider during the freshman assessment not long ago was too deep.

Zhou Sichen couldn't help but exclaim in a trembling voice, "The class monitor is so handsome! I feel like I'm on fire, I'm covered in goosebumps. No wonder Ning Tian, ​​with his background, is willing to pursue the class monitor. If I were a woman, I would definitely like the class monitor too."

Even Tuoba Yu, who usually enjoys arguing with Zhou Sichen, was unusually silent.

Cao Jinxuan, who was good at having fun, jokingly teased Zhou Sichen.

"Even if you're a man, you're not without a chance."

"Get lost. My sexual orientation is perfectly normal," Zhou Sichen retorted irritably.

"I only like gentle and pretty girls."

Having calmed down a bit, Tuoba Yu also revealed a smug expression on his face.

"I know you like the type of student Jiang from sixth grade."

Zhou Sichen quickly covered Tuoba Yu's mouth, glancing somewhat guiltily at the area north of the Soul Arena where Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, and Jiang Nannan were located.

Just then, I saw Xu Sanshi's 'kind' gaze.

Although Zhou Sichen and the other two spoke in hushed tones, Xu Sanshi became unusually sensitive whenever Jiang Nannan was involved.

The other senior core disciples did not think that Yu Tianhuang was overestimating himself.

Yu Tianhuang's reputation as the top controller in the outer academy had long resounded throughout the entire Shrek Academy. He was a genius whose talent surpassed even that of Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi, the twin stars of the outer academy. Not to mention that Yu Tianhuang had already advanced to the Soul Master level and possessed such an astonishing Soul Ring configuration.

However, they remained cautious and hesitant to draw any conclusions about the outcome of Yu Tianhuang's attempt to challenge both Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi at once.

But there is no denying that Yu Tianhuang's words ignited the emotions of everyone present.

The generational shift among the top geniuses of the outer academy, with the outer academy's number one control-type soul master challenging the outer academy's number one offensive-type soul master and the outer academy's number one defensive-type soul master.

Each one of them was full of talking points.

Even Elder Xuan was no exception; he stopped chewing and clicked his tongue in amazement.

"Young people these days are really energetic. But it's good that way; it's time to put some pressure on those two little bastards, Beibei and Xu Sanshi."

Competition and pressure are necessary for progress.

Although he didn't say it, he was very happy about the abundance of talented people at Shrek Academy.

The two third-year core disciples, Lion Soul Master and Spear Soul Master, who remained on the field, were filled with astonishment and doubt.

Of course, as surprised and doubtful as they were, they were still willing to be optimistic about the outcome.

By actively challenging Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi, Yu Tianhuang can secure two of the seven spots regardless of the outcome. Why not?

At this moment, Xu Sanshi, who had been glaring angrily at Zhou Sichen, Cao Jinxuan, and Tuoba Yu, also looked away and, together with Beibei beside him, looked at Xu Zihuang standing in the center of the field.

Beibei's refined smile faded slightly, her eyes narrowed, and she appeared much more dangerous than before, with an even more aggressive aura.

On the dragon's arms covered in blue-purple scales, violent lightning gathered and pulsed, making the surrounding air seem slightly distorted.

"If we don't count the friendly sparring with San Shi, which left them with some room to maneuver, then there isn't."

After Bei Bei finished speaking, Xu Sanshi also responded to Xu Zihuang's question.

"Among my peers, I only occasionally win or lose when I practice with Beibei."

With his right hand holding the massive Xuanming Tortoise Shell Shield horizontally in front of him, Xu Sanshi became less impetuous and more as steady as a mountain.

How could the two of them not understand the meaning behind Yu Tianhuang's words?

However, they also had to admit that since awakening their martial souls and beginning their cultivation, Yu Tianhuang was the first peer to put so much pressure on them.

Even Yu Tianhuang was almost three years younger than them.

"In that case, let's go all out and have a good fight. Senior Brother Bei, Senior Brother Xu, I've actually wanted to spar with you for a long time, and I hope you won't hold back." Xu Zihuang's smile remained unchanged, but his aura was rising steadily.

The sudden surge of his violent soul power caused his long, black hair to move without wind, and his tall, slender figure appeared so majestic and captivating to Ning Tian.

Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and her bright blue eyes reflected Xu Zihuang's image, shimmering with light.

A confident and strong young man is destined to be the center of attention wherever he goes.

For Ning Tian, ​​winning or losing was no longer important. Because no matter the outcome, it wouldn't affect her decision.

In the future, she will surely follow Yu Tianhuang with the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda, helping him stand at the pinnacle of the continent.

Hearing this, even Jiang Nannan, who was standing behind Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi, couldn't help but glance at Xu Zihuang again.

Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi stepped forward, their sharp gazes fixed on Xu Zihuang. Intense soul power surged forth, one side blue, the other black, clearly distinct.

They cannot and do not want to back down in the current situation.

Soul Masters who aspire to reach the pinnacle must forge ahead against the current; how can they fear failure? Otherwise, a setback will leave a shadow on their character, which will have a huge impact on their future cultivation.

Moreover, aside from Xu Sanshi, Bei Bei had long desired this clash as well. A spirit soul can influence a spirit master's personality to a certain extent. A spirit master with the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex spirit has aggressive blood flowing through their veins. His previous apathetic demeanor was partly due to his nature, but another reason was that, among his peers, besides Xu Sanshi, he hadn't encountered an opponent who could match or surpass him.

But now, such a person has appeared. He even felt a surge of excitement.

Beibei met Xu Zihuang's gaze with deep eyes, and without warning, asked in a deep voice, "Tianhuang, what is it that you are pursuing?"
