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

On Shrek Academy's side, Xu Sanshi held the heavy black Xuanming Turtle Shell Shield in his right hand and, following the original tactic, directly launched his fourth soul skill, Xuanming Displacement, at Xu Jiujiu on the opposite side.

The purple fourth spirit ring shone brightly.

A burst of black light shone brightly from the Xuanming Tortoise Shell Shield, reflecting off the side and enveloping Xu Jiujiu's delicate body. This perfectly demonstrated Xu Sanshi's control over his fourth soul skill.

Although Xu Jiujiu didn't know what the effect of Xu Sanshi's fourth soul skill was, she certainly wouldn't let herself be hit by it at this moment.

The brilliant golden light surging from the star crown on her head became even more intense, and her third soul ring lit up, causing a brilliant golden pillar of light to shoot into the sky.

The third soul skill of the Star Crown Martial Soul is the Star Radiance Technique.

The interior of this brilliant golden pillar of light appears as a golden mist, with specks of starlight swirling and rising within it, creating a truly bizarre sight.

Even more bizarrely, when the black light released from Xu Sanshi's Xuanming Tortoise Shell Shield touched this brilliant golden beam of light, it seemed to be disintegrated and completely dissolved.

Just as Xu Jiujiu was unaware of the effect of Xu Sanshi's fourth soul skill, the members of Shrek Academy were equally unclear about the specific function of Xu Jiujiu's third soul skill.

But one thing is certain: the tactics Wang Yan had previously devised are now meaningless.

Actually, this was exactly what Ma Xiaotao wanted.

Despite Wang Yan's repeated admonitions to conserve her strength, she wouldn't listen.

Intense phoenix flames instantly rose around her, and the six perfectly matched soul rings—two yellow, two purple, and two black—demonstrated her Soul Emperor level cultivation.

The blazing phoenix flames and the violent pressure of soul power swept over in an instant, crashing towards the Star Luo Royal Academy like a crimson meteor.

Not only Ma Xiaotao, but Dai Yueheng also released his White Tiger Martial Soul. His muscles swelled up, exuding a fierce aura, and he followed closely behind Ma Xiaotao.

Also erupting was Chen Zifeng, the offensive-type Soul King. While he was indeed inferior to Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng, who were both Soul Emperors, in terms of Soul Power cultivation, the sense of threat he posed, wielding the blood-red Soul Chasing Sword, was in no way inferior to theirs.

Three offensive-type Soul Masters, two Soul Emperors and one Soul King—such a terrifying lineup is unique to Shrek Academy in this Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament.

After a long pause, the golden pillar of light formed by the third soul skill quickly turned into golden mist and spread out, accurately landing on the other six students.

The three trainees standing at the front took the initiative to meet Ma Xiaotao, Dai Yueheng, and Chen Zifeng, who were rushing towards them.

Ma Xiaotao was incredibly fast; in such a short time, she rushed to the opposite camp.

The golden-red flames phoenix spread its wings and spewed a mouthful of phoenix flames towards the opponent's Soul King.

The Soul King who faced Ma Xiaotao was named Huang Heyun. Among the seven students of the Star Luo Royal Soul Master Academy, his soul power cultivation was the strongest, even surpassing that of Xu Jiujiu.

His martial soul was also exceptionally powerful, a top-tier beast martial soul called the Dark Demon Tiger. Its attributes were opposite to Dai Yueheng's White Tiger martial soul, but their quality was nearly identical.

Thick black energy swirled around his body, his solid muscles bulged, and his figure swelled. His entire body was covered in black hair without a single blemish.

However, at this moment, his body wasn't simply black. There was also a golden mist emanating from his third soul skill, Starry Night Technique. This dense golden mist didn't collide with his dark-attribute soul power; instead, it merged with it. Dark gold starlight shimmered within his black soul power.

His first spirit ring flashed with yellow light, and his right hand, which had transformed into a black tiger claw, clenched into a fist. He then unleashed a punch into the air, creating a dark golden arc-shaped light shield with a diameter of over one meter.

First Soul Skill: Dark Wave.

When the golden-red phoenix flames touched the dark wave, sparks flew everywhere. Despite the obvious difference in their cultivation levels, Ma Xiaotao's first soul skill, Phoenix Fire Line, was easily blocked by Huang Heyun's first soul skill, Dark Wave.

Ma Xiaotao's mind stirred slightly as she keenly noticed the dark golden starlight within Huang Heyun's soul power.

Dai Yueheng and Chen Zifeng were in similar situations, facing the Netherworld Lion Soul King Dugu Shangshan and the Lightning Falcon Soul Master Chen Xiaojie, respectively.

When Dugu Shangshan is in the state of possessing a martial spirit, he gives people a sense of illusion. Although Dai Yueheng's White Tiger martial spirit is powerful, it mainly specializes in physical attacks, which is to some extent countered by Dugu Shangshan's Netherworld Lion martial spirit.

Facing the terrifyingly powerful weapon spirit master Chen Zifeng, Chen Xiaojie resorted to speed to entangle him. The Lightning Falcon martial spirit was not only extremely fast, but its attack power was also astonishing.

With the added support of Xu Jiujiu's third soul skill, Starry Night Technique, the situation reached a temporary stalemate.

Chapter 187 Shrek Academy vs. Star Luo Royal Academy (Part 2)

Although Ma Xiaotao knew that Huang Heyun only managed to block her Phoenix Fire Line thanks to the help of Xu Jiujiu's third soul skill.

But she still felt a sense of disbelief.

Keep in mind that she possesses the cultivation level of a Soul Emperor, with a Soul Power level as high as 68. Although Phoenix Fire Line is only her first Soul Skill, with the enhancement of her Soul Power and the amplification of her third Soul Skill, Phoenix Wings Soaring, it can definitely make any Soul King-level Soul Master feel extremely troubled.

But Huang Heyun easily withstood the attack with her first soul skill, and even had the strength to launch a counterattack.

In the blink of an eye, the dark wave mixed with starlight arrived in front of Ma Xiaotao.

Ma Xiaotao snorted coldly, and her second spirit ring shone brightly.

Second Soul Skill: Phoenix Reborn from the Ashes.

Moreover, it was the Phoenix Reborn in Flames in the third soul skill, Phoenix Wings Soaring into the Sky state.

Intense and blazing phoenix flames ignited on her right hand, bathing her entire body in golden-red flames. At this moment, she seemed to have truly transformed into a fire phoenix.

The dark waves of Huang Heyun shattered with a soft sound the moment Ma Xiaotao's right hand touched them. Golden-red phoenix flames instantly swept towards Huang Heyun opposite her.

The scorching heatwave made the clouds over the Yellow River feel as if their lungs were being burned.

Even with the amplification from the Starry Sky Technique for a long time, he still felt immense pressure when facing Ma Xiaotao, a Soul Emperor-level powerhouse from Shrek Academy's inner court.

He dared not be the slightest bit presumptuous, and made a slight backward movement, causing the rhythmic purple millennium soul rings around his body to light up.

The Millennium Soul Ring skill, Demonic Tiger Shocks the Heavens.

With a deep tiger's roar, a ball of black soul power mixed with dark golden starlight separated from his body and transformed into a fierce black tiger in the air to meet Ma Xiaotao's phoenix flames.

While Xingluo Royal Academy has Xu Jiujiu, a support-type battle spirit master, Shrek Academy also has Gongyang Mo, a more pure support-type spirit master.

Gongyang Mo, who was standing behind Xu Zihuang, had already floated into the air at some point, his pair of magnificent seven-colored wings fluttering gently.

Two yellow, two purple, and two black soul rings—six perfectly matched soul rings—demonstrate his Soul Emperor-level cultivation.

"Another Soul Emperor?"

The audience couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

Meanwhile, the students and teachers from other academies in the players' rest area wore extremely solemn expressions, especially those from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

Even Xiao Hongchen, who was full of confidence, couldn't help but frown.

Gongyang Mo was clearly somewhat taken aback by the fact that his soul power had broken through to level 60 and he had successfully obtained his sixth soul ring during this Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament.

Gongyang Mo had appeared in previous matches, and the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy had also specifically learned about Gongyang Mo's martial soul and soul skills.

The Rainbow Dragon is a top-tier support-type martial soul comparable to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

Advancing from Soul King to Soul Emperor increases the amplification effect of each Soul Skill by ten percent. Even without considering the newly acquired sixth Soul Skill, this will allow the Shrek Academy team to achieve a significant leap in overall strength.

Gongyang Mo's long hair also turned seven colors, and a faint smile appeared on his handsome face.

The first, second, third, and fifth spirit rings around him lit up almost simultaneously.

A series of halos of different colors landed precisely on the group of people.

Besides the well-known first soul skill, Crimson Power, the second soul skill, Orange Soul Power, and the third soul skill, Yellow Speed, Gongyang Mo's fifth soul skill, which is at the ten-thousand-year level, is called Azure Attribute.

This is also a rare and powerful attribute-boosting skill.

Gongyang Mo's attribute-enhancing soul skill differs from Xu Zihuang's first soul skill. Xu Zihuang's first soul skill, Whale's Roar, only amplifies the few elemental attributes controlled by various martial souls.

Similar to fire, ice, wind, thunder, and earth. Because the Silver-Scaled White Whale possesses the bloodline of a silver dragon, it has the ability to control various attributes.

However, Xu Zihuang's soul skill can bring about a qualitative sublimation of a soul master's martial soul attribute.

However, Gongyang Mo's soul skill can only amplify the power of a soul master's soul skill; the difference between the two is essentially a qualitative change versus a quantitative change.

Of course, the amplification effect of Gongyang Mo's fifth soul skill, Azure, far surpasses that of Xu Zihuang's first soul skill, Whale's Roar. Moreover, it can amplify not only various elemental attributes, but also the user's strongest attribute. The scope is very broad.

For example, Chen Zifeng's Soul-Chasing Sword Martial Soul's most prominent ability is sharpness, and Gongyang Mo's enhancement to it naturally focuses on this aspect.

The boost Ma Xiaotao received was definitely to her Phoenix Flame.

Within the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, there is actually a soul skill that enhances attributes, and it is also the most important soul skill in the school. It usually appears as the sixth soul skill.

It was Gongyang Mo's family that negotiated with the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, which allowed him to obtain such a powerful attribute-enhancing soul skill.

The four amplification-type soul skills landed on Ma Xiaotao, instantly causing her aura to surge. In particular, the golden-red phoenix flames burning all over Ma Xiaotao's body, when the cyan halo fell on her head, the cyan and red combined, as if the fire was fueled by the wind, and half of the sky was dyed red.

Ma Xiaotao's aura has now definitely reached the level of a Soul Saint.

As close 'sisters' to Ma Xiaotao, Gongyang Mo knew Ma Xiaotao's volatile temper very well. Moreover, they were facing the Star Luo Royal Academy, whose overall strength was formidable, so from the very beginning he held nothing back, giving everyone his full boost.

Like Chen Zifeng, Dai Yueheng, and Ma Xiaotao, they all received four types of boosts.

The three inner court disciples specializing in offensive attacks are the main attackers in this match.

In order to conserve his soul power, Gongyang Mo only added the first three types of amplification to Xu Sanshi and Bei Bei, who were lagging behind Ma Xiaotao and the other two.

Although he is now at the Soul Emperor level, it is not enough for him to recklessly unleash his ten-thousand-year soul skills.

The only enhancement given to Xu Zihuang, a control-type Soul Master, was the Orange Soul Power.

Xu Zihuang stared blankly at Xu Jiujiu on the other side of the arena. Due to Wang Yan's tactical arrangement, he did not use his first soul skill, Whale's Roar, to buff everyone in this match.

However, he was also prepared to coordinate with Ma Xiaotao, Dai Yueheng, and Chen Zifeng to unleash their power at any time.

The reason he didn't use his soul skill immediately was twofold. First, he knew from his memories of his past life what trump cards Princess Jiujiu possessed. Second, only now, with Gongyang Mo's assistance and Ma Xiaotao and her companions unleashing their full power, was the optimal time to activate his soul skill.

Ma Xiaotao's fiery wings suddenly unfurled, and the blazing phoenix flames abruptly transformed from golden-red to scorching white. The sudden surge in temperature forced Dai Yueheng, Chen Zifeng, and Dugu Shangshan and Chen Xiaojie, who were fighting the two, to keep their distance.

Standing directly in front of Ma Xiaotao, Huang Heyun felt it even more acutely; even his own soul power couldn't block out such terrifying heat.

What shocked him most was that the dark golden starlight transformed from Xu Jiujiu's third soul skill, Starry Night Technique, was completely evaporated by the intense heat.

As flames rose, the black tiger shadow turned to ashes in an instant.

Ma Xiaotao flashed her body and unleashed another burst of blazing white phoenix fire at Huang Heyun.

She fully mobilized the evil fire power within the origin of the Evil Phoenix Martial Soul.

With Yu Tianhuang around, she no longer needed to worry about the backlash from the evil fire.

In addition, Gongyang Mona's 60% attribute boost to her first soul skill, Phoenix Fire Line, immediately put Huang Heyun in a crisis.

At that very moment, the blazing white phoenix fire line that Ma Xiaotao had been spewing towards the Yellow River Cloud suddenly veered to the side and then rose into the air.

The one who made the move was a young girl standing behind Huang Heyun. The girl had a simple appearance, with long hair that was already dark purple, but her eyes, like Ma Xiaotao's, shone with a fiery light.

Her name is Yi Chen, and her martial soul is a powerful fire element martial soul. She is also one of the two control-type soul masters on the Star Luo Royal Academy side.

The other control-type Soul Master is also a young girl named Wang Shiying. Her Martial Soul is wind, and she forms a wind and fire dual-control team with Yi Chen.

Wang Shiying, on the other hand, cooperated with Dugu Shangshan and Chen Xiaojie to resist the attacks of Dai Yueheng and Chen Zifeng.

Even with the five of them working together, they still couldn't withstand the full force of Ma Xiaotao and her two companions, and quickly fell into a disadvantageous position, retreating step by step.
