Chapter 481: Chapter 481: Dismantling in One Move, Truly Terrifying!

Even though his face was still somewhat pale, he appeared very confident.

Yu Xiaogang had his hands behind his back, displaying a mysterious expression. "Although your seven spirits aren't as similar as those of Canghui Academy, I've managed to find a new way after these days of research."

"While Canghui Academy's seven-in-one fusion technique allows them to unleash a powerful soul skill, something we can't quite achieve, we can, however, compress the soul power of seven people and gradually transfer it to one person. This would allow that person's strength to temporarily exceed that of a Soul Sage!"

After hearing Yu Xiaogang's explanation, everyone present understood the concept. It might indeed work, but how exactly would the transfer process take place?

"Master, how should we carry out the soul power transfer at that time?" Yu Tianxin asked calmly.

Yu Xiaogang glanced at Tang San before replying, "According to my calculations, you will form a single-line dragon formation. The order from back to front should be Oscar, Ma Hongjun, Lei Dong, Yu Tianheng, Yu Tianxin, Dai Mubai, and finally Tang San!"

At this, Lei Dong in the team voiced his discontent, frowning as he said, "Master, I don't agree. Why wouldn't we transfer all the soul power to the captain or Dai Mubai?"

Lei Dong's reasoning made sense; the former was the team captain, while the latter currently had the highest soul power level in the group.

Choosing Tang San seemed biased, as if Yu Xiaogang was giving this spotlight moment to his disciple.

Yu Xiaogang looked at everyone calmly and explained, "I have my reasons for this arrangement. First, Tang San's second martial soul is the Clear Sky Hammer, the number one weapon martial soul, which is no less powerful than the White Tiger martial soul or the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul."

"Second, I considered the physical durability of each person. Placing Tianxin first would risk him exploding immediately due to his physique."

"Third, as more soul power is infused into the Clear Sky Hammer, its size and weight will increase. As I mentioned, the person at the front of the seven-in-one fusion technique can momentarily reach a strength close to a Contra. At that point, the weapon martial soul master may even activate their true martial soul avatar!"

This third point was something Tang Hao mentioned when he later learned about their research.

Their seven-in-one fusion technique continuously transferred soul power, creating a limitation: the formation couldn't be broken, and the power transfer couldn't be interrupted. Movement had to be minimized.

Here, the advantage of weapon-type martial souls became evident, especially with the Clear Sky Hammer. With increased soul power, it grew larger, expanding the attack range, and, combined with the secret techniques of the Clear Sky School, it became unimaginably powerful.

Beast martial souls, however, faced more restrictions in this regard.

Everyone present, except Tang San, was astounded. This seven-in-one fusion technique allowed them to temporarily activate their true martial soul avatars, making everyone aware of the benefits.

Yu Tianxin also voiced his support, "Uncle, we'll follow your guidance."

On the Battle Stage

As Zhu Zhuqing vanished, the Hell Civet Tiger showed no sign of panic. Instead, it unleashed all its soul power in every direction, countering any possible sneak attacks from Zhu Zhuqing.

Zhu Zhuyun felt a surge of envy seeing her sister with such an impressive soul skill.

"Fifth Soul Skill: Hell Tear Claws!"

In an instant, as she drew closer to the Hell Civet Tiger, Zhu Zhuqing's fifth soul ring glowed, and she dispelled her concealment to enter a rapid state. With two amplifying soul skills, her attack power increased by 600% (an additive active boost).

Zhu Zhuqing's speed was so fast that Davis and Zhu Zhuyun had no time to react.

The Hell Civet Tiger's back was struck with a deep blow, leaving five claw marks visible to the bone!

Puh! With just one move, Davis and Zhu Zhuyun's Hell Civet Tiger was instantly dismantled.

If it were merely a soul skill attack, they wouldn't be in such dire straits. However, Zhu Zhuqing's attack not only penetrated their defense but also doubled in force!

Her attack power reached twelve times the original strength, and her Hell Tear Claws carried a certain armor-breaking effect, making it truly terrifying!

The scene fell silent; the crowd's cheers abruptly stopped, overwhelmed with shock.

Despite her various enhancements, Zhu Zhuqing had single-handedly defeated the Hell Civet Tiger, something no one expected, especially the Xingluo Royal Academy.

They never imagined Zhu Zhuqing could defeat their two captains with a single move!

As the Hell Civet Tiger dissipated, Davis supported Zhu Zhuyun with one hand, clutching his chest with the other. The power of that attack had been overwhelming, exhausting all their soul power.

Davis felt a deep sense of defeat as he looked at Zhu Zhuqing, his gaze complicated.

Zhu Zhuyun, beside him, felt similarly. Her younger sister, whom she once protected, had far surpassed her, leaving a sense of loss in her heart.

Zhu Zhuqing looked at Su Ming and Dugu Yan behind her, then stepped toward Davis and Zhu Zhuyun.

"Sister, you've lost," Zhu Zhuqing said with a complex expression.

"Sister, there's something I've always wondered. Were the assassinations I faced as a child your doing?"

At this point, Dugu Yan silently used a truth-telling card on Zhu Zhuyun, compelling her to speak honestly for a short time.

Su Yuntao, observing the strange atmosphere, refrained from announcing the match results, sensing the tension.

Faced with Zhu Zhuqing's question, Zhu Zhuyun replied with a smile, "Yes, I sent the assassins after you. Your talent posed a threat to both me and Vis."

However, under the influence of the card, she added, "Sister, I also did it to sharpen your vigilance. By letting others know I was after you, they wouldn't dare act against you, preferring to watch from the sidelines. If I truly wanted to kill or cripple you, you wouldn't be alive now, as my subordinates aren't weak."

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhu Zhuyun's face fell; she hadn't intended to reveal everything.

 


Chapter 482: Chapter 482: Zhu Zhuyun Reveals Her True Feelings

Upon hearing Zhu Zhuyun admit it herself, Zhu Zhuqing finally felt a sense of relief and smiled; so it was just as Su Ming had guessed!

Indeed, back then, when I had only awakened my martial soul two years prior, I wasn't very powerful. And it's impossible that everyone under my sister's command would be useless. She's been perfectly fine all this time.

So there's only one explanation: my sister intentionally played the villain and used these assassination attempts as a way to push me to grow stronger, sending a message to others that she'd handle me herself and that they shouldn't make a move.

Davis, standing to the side, looked completely stunned after hearing Zhu Zhuyun's confession. "Huh, so it's not what I thought? Zhu Yun, is everything you said true? I actually thought you really wanted to kill your sister."

Knowing that Zhu Zhuyun had attempted to assassinate Zhu Zhuqing in the past had filled him with murderous intent when he first saw how powerful Zhu Zhuqing had become. He had even thought Zhu Zhuyun's approach was correct, even though it hadn't worked. But now, this is just awkward.

Zhu Zhuyun, unable to control herself, blurted out her inner thoughts, "Weiss, I was afraid that you might secretly harm my sister. That's why I acted first—I was worried that her talent would make you act against her."

Davis: Davis looked wounded and said with a hurt expression, "Zhu Yun, I didn't think you saw me that way. If I truly wanted to do something like that, wouldn't it be easier for me to take out my foolish brother?"

"Don't forget, that foolish brother of mine arrived in the Heaven Dou Empire three years before Zhu Zhuqing. I never took any action against him, so why would I do anything to your sister?"

Zhu Zhuyun: At this moment, Zhu Zhuyun wanted nothing more than to dig a hole in the ground out of embarrassment. So, it was all a misunderstanding? How awkward!

"Um, Weiss, it's just that you seem so driven by the throne that I thought maybe…" Zhu Zhuyun stammered awkwardly.

Davis turned to Zhu Zhuqing and asked, "Are you sure you won't return to the Xingluo Empire with us after the competition?"

Zhu Zhuqing shook her head. "I have no interest in that throne. Right now, I just want to stay by Su Ming's side."

Though Zhu Zhuqing said this, she knew that once they joined the Spirit Hall, the Hall's goal would be to unify the continent. What would happen to the Xingluo Empire then?

But she didn't want to think too much about that now. She'd take things one step at a time. The worst outcome would be the fall of the Xingluo Empire, but if Su Ming were there, maybe the Empire could become a vassal state?

However, that wouldn't be an easy feat; it would depend on the Xingluo Emperor's decision at the time.

Hearing Zhu Zhuqing's answer, Davis sighed in relief; after all, Dai Mubai was nothing to worry about.

"Zhu Yun, it seems we've had some misunderstandings. Although I am determined to secure the throne, I intend to do so through legitimate means, not by using underhanded tricks."

As he spoke, Davis glanced at the Thunder Academy's resting area.

Seeing that the misunderstanding had been cleared, Su Ming said to Su Yuntao beside him, "Referee, it's time to announce the result of the match."

Davis raised his right hand, "The Xingluo Royal Team concedes."

Su Yuntao returned to the stage with enthusiasm, announcing, "In the match between the Heaven Dou Royal Team and the Xingluo Royal Team, congratulations to the Heaven Dou Royal Team for their victory!"

"The Heaven Dou Royal Team is truly impressive!" some spectators exclaimed in amazement.

"Yes, the vice-captain and other team members did very well, but what about the captain? Wasn't he introduced as a control-type soul master at the start?"

"Yeah, I saw that he cast an auxiliary soul skill at the beginning, then nothing else. There didn't seem to be anything particularly remarkable about him." Many spectators expressed curiosity and a bit of skepticism about Su Ming's strength.

"Are you all stupid? Su Ming is already at level sixty-five. Of course, he'd give his team members a chance to show off. He must be hiding his true strength. Don't forget, the Spirit Hall's team captain is also a level sixty-seven Soul Emperor!" The audience quickly engaged in heated discussion.

Naturally, Su Ming overheard these comments, but he didn't care. As the team captain, it was normal for others to question him if he hadn't shown his strength.

"Zhuqing, now you understand your sister's intentions in doing what she did, right?" Su Ming patted Zhu Zhuqing on the shoulder.

Zhu Zhuqing gave a small smile in response.

Then, Su Ming looked at Davis with some confusion, saying, "Davis, I don't oppose your royal family's method of selecting heirs, but isn't the punishment for failure—either death or loss of cultivation—a bit too harsh?"

"And the crucial point is, as royal descendants, you all possess the White Tiger martial soul, and your innate soul power shouldn't differ significantly. In that case, the older candidates have a clear advantage. Both you and Zhu Zhuyun are much older than Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing. Under normal circumstances, your chances of victory are as high as ninety percent!"

"No wonder Zhuqing felt a sense of helplessness before. The age gap is a real disadvantage; even if her talent surpasses yours, what good would it do?"

Davis remained silent. This rule was indeed unfair to the younger royal members, but it worked in his favor, so he had never thought much about it.

The rule had persisted because it served a purpose.

"I understand what you're saying, but I can't change it. This rule was established by our ancestors. The harshness and risk of death have ensured that the overall strength of the Xingluo Empire surpasses that of the Heaven Dou Empire."

"That's the only benefit I know of."

In any case, this rule was no secret between the two empires, and Davis spoke openly in Spirit City.

Su Ming knew Davis couldn't change anything; he'd only been asking out of curiosity.

"Let's go back," Su Ming said to his teammates.

Dugu Yan asked, "Su Ming, aren't you staying to watch the remaining matches? Aren't you curious about which four academies will advance?"

"I can already guess. Tianshui Academy drew a bye, and the Spirit Hall and Thunder Academy will definitely advance. As for the last spot, it doesn't matter which academy takes it—they'll be the weakest, no matter who advances." Su Ming replied calmly.
