The elder presiding over the duel once again spoke, "Please release your Martial Souls and Soul Rings..."
The captain of the Ferocious Dragon Team took a step forward, erupting in a mighty display of Soul Power, and behind him suddenly manifested a Ferocious Lion with an intimidating appearance, nearly ten meters in size!
Six Soul Rings slowly rose around his feet...
Two yellow, two purple, two black!
"Roar" The Ferocious Lion opened its gaping maw and let out a deafening roar towards Qian Yu...
Qian Yu calmly looked at the captain of the Ferocious Dragon Team and said indifferently, "Then let's begin!"
Upon hearing this, the latter narrowed his eyes, "Aren't you going to release your Martial Soul?"
Qian Yu glanced at him expressionlessly, "There's no need, it's just a matter of one punch anyway."
The captain of the Ferocious Dragon Team turned ugly at these words!
The captain of Shrek Academy actually dared to look down on him so much!
He didn't even want to use his Martial Soul!
Just as he was about to angrily retort, he saw that there was absolutely no mockery in Qian Yu's cold eyes!
A chill suddenly rose in the man's back, and he couldn't believe it, "Could it be... he really can defeat me with a single punch without using his Martial Soul?"
How is that possible!!
Qian Yu patted his sleeve calmly and said, "Are you ready? You won't have a chance once I make my move!"
The captain of the Ferocious Dragon Team roared, "Stop underestimating me! Fourth Soul Skill, Lion Transformation!!"
The fourth soul ring at his feet lit up...
In the next instant, the majestic lion behind him quietly merged into his body, and thick fur could be vaguely seen growing on his frame...
Soon after, every part of him transformed into the likeness of a lion, his body exuding an even more terrifying sense of oppression!
The members of the Ferocious Dragon Team behind him were all excited, "This captain of Shrek Academy is definitely unable to withstand the attack! With the Lion Transformation, the captain is no less powerful than a Soul Sage!"
"Exactly, he isn't even using his Martial Soul. Captain, you must teach him a lesson, even if it's Shrek Academy, they can't look down on people like this!"
"That's right, today we must crush their spirit!"
A hint of surprise flashed in Qian Yu's eyes, "Lion Transformation? Not bad for an amplification effect."
The man who had already transformed into a lion-man heard these words that completely disregarded him...
He shouted coldly, "Stop posturing! If you lose, don't blame me for bullying you! Sixth Soul Skill, Fierce Tiger Ripping Claw!"
His feet's sixth black Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring suddenly lit up...
In the next moment, his terrifyingly large, over a meter-long, claws glowed a frightening crimson red, and a powerful force capable of tearing everything apart surged forth...
Immediately, a terrifying sound of tearing wind arose, and he extended his sharp claws towards Qian Yu in a ripping motion...
Qian Yu glanced at the man attacking him, quietly clenched his fist, and channeled Divine Power into it...
He casually threw a punch towards the latter...
...
All around the Continental Young Elite Soul Masters Competition came the sound of sharp intakes of breath...
"Hiss... it... it can't be real, he actually sent the captain of the Ferocious Tiger Team, who had used his Fifth Soul Skill, flying hundreds of meters away with a single punch!"
"Am I seeing things, this captain from Shrek Academy seems like he didn't even use his Martial Soul!"
"Virtual reality? Such a realistic experience..."
Behind Qian Yu, Dai Yaoheng and others couldn't help but twitch at the corners of their mouths...
```
Ningtian took a deep breath, his voice tinged with a hint of fear, "Is Elder Qian Yu being a bit too harsh?"
Dai Yaoheng swallowed hard, "I think... Elder Qian Yu has already suppressed his strength as much as possible, right? Otherwise... it should have exploded into a Blood Fog!"
Wu Feng shivered as she spoke, "The extent of Elder Qian Yu's strength has always been a mystery... Isn't it said that he has only just reached the level of Titled Douluo? But when you think about how he killed a Titled Douluo last time as easily as slaughtering a chicken..."
Ling Luoshang glanced at her, "Wu Feng, bringing up such a topic might deviate from your persona, you know."
Wu Feng rubbed her hair and laughed awkwardly, "Heh, heh."
Qian Yu's eyes briefly swept over the captain of the Ferocious Dragon Team who had been flung out of the competition stage and was now lying on the cold floor, his body oozing hot, fresh blood...
He then turned his gaze to the other members of the Ferocious Dragon Team and asked indifferently, "Do you still wish to continue the fight?"
Upon hearing Qian Yu's question, the Ferocious Dragon Team members quickly started discussing among themselves anxiously...
One of the members hurriedly asked, "Are we still fighting?"
Another member glared at him, "Fight? The captain was already knocked out with a single punch; if we go up there, won't we just be knocked out with a punch too? Plus, we'd have to endure that terrifying pain!"
"Going up now is simply seeking death. Let's admit defeat!"
After coming to a unanimous decision, they turned to an old man nearby and said, "Our Ferocious Dragon Team admits defeat!"
The old man nodded slightly, he too had just recovered from the shock of Qian Yu's terrifying power...
Every time the captain of Shrek Academy made a move, it was like narrowly avoiding killing the opponent!
He must pay extra attention in the future; if there's negligence, it would be his responsibility!
...
Down below, members of Tang Sect watching Qian Yu make his move couldn't help but comment...
Bei Bei exclaimed, "That's definitely Qian Yu's style of doing things! Had it been an enemy, they would probably have been blown into a Blood Fog, right?"
Jiang Nannan nodded in agreement, "Mm, Qian Yu never holds back against an enemy!"
Huo Yuhao said solemnly, "Qian Yu's strength is terrifying even without using the power of his Martial Soul, it's simply incalculable!"
The Skydream Ice Silkworm said irritably, "Yuhao, stop thinking about Qian Yu. That guy is inhuman!"
Ice Emperor said gravely, "To solve a Soul Master whose strength is comparable to that of a Soul Sage with a random punch, just how strong is his strength, even I cannot predict!"
Skydream Ice Silkworm reminded again, "Such a terrifying individual must have been noticed by the gods of the Divine Realm by now, so becoming a God shouldn't be too difficult for him!"
"So, we'd better not provoke that guy if we can help it; if he wanted to make a move on Yuhao, it would be overwhelming," he continued.
Ice Emperor nodded, "As long as nothing unexpected happens, there should be no problems. Right now, the most important thing is to help Yuhao get one step closer to that realm!"
Huo Yuhao smiled lightly, "Yeah! Luckily, I resolved the misunderstanding with Qian Yu earlier, or else that could have been troublesome..."
With that, he clenched his fist tightly...
But... was he truly content with this?
Huo Yuhao pursed his lips, and then looked at Wang Dong'er beside him with his deep blue eyes...
Feeling Huo Yuhao's gaze, Wang Dong turned her head, her beautiful lavender eyes filled with deep confusion, "Yuhao, what's wrong?"
Huo Yuhao was taken aback and explained, "It's nothing. I was just thinking about how we would deal with the Holy Spirit Battle Team if we encountered them!"
"The next match will be Tang Sect against the Eternal Hope Team! Mode of competition: Team Battle!"
Wang Dong'er gently patted his shoulder and smiled, "Stop worrying so much! It's our turn to go on stage now!"
Huo Yuhao's face broke into a relieved smile, and he released his tightly clenched fist...
He nodded, "Mm."
