"Martial Soul Fusion Technique?" Flender raised an eyebrow.
"Strange, why isn't Mu Chen moving?" Zhao Wuji wondered.
With Mu Chen's speed, Zhao Wuji believed he could have stopped Shui Yue'er and Shui Bing'er from executing their martial soul fusion.
"I think he might be trying to intimidate them," Flender speculated.
With Tang Sect newly established, showcasing absolute strength would boost its reputation, beneficial for Tang Sect's future development.
Of course, Flender had no idea that Mu Chen was simply focused on completing a task.
As everyone watched with curiosity, an ice crystal phoenix emerged in the arena. The ice phoenix was surrounded by a chilling aura, snowflakes drifting down as the temperature plummeted to a terrifying level.
Even soul masters shivered in the frigid atmosphere, let alone ordinary people. Moreover, within the icy domain, soul masters felt their soul power seemingly frozen, their combat effectiveness diminished.
Such extreme power was indeed extraordinary!
"Activate the barrier!" Host Dou Dou declared.
A glowing hemispherical barrier extended from the stage, enveloping it and isolating the intense cold.
*Buzz*
The ice phoenix soared into the sky, rising over dozens of meters.
"Hmph, with control of the airspace and the advantage of altitude, we can remain invincible. All we need to do is keep attacking him, and victory will be ours," Shui Bing'er's confident laughter echoed from within the ice phoenix.
"Airspace control? You think... I can't fly?" Mu Chen chuckled, gently unfurling his dazzling Chaos Eight Wings.
"External spirit bone!"
"External spirit bone!"
"External spirit bone!"
Everyone gasped in astonishment. The young man before them possessed the coveted external spirit bone, a dream for any soul master.
"Surprised? Do you want one too?" Mu Chen laughed.
"Can you give me one?" Shui Yue'er asked.
"That's up for consideration. But first, you should surrender. You're really no match for me," Mu Chen replied casually.
"Arrogant!" Shui Bing'er's defiant voice came from the ice phoenix.
**First Soul Skill: Ice Seal**
The space around Mu Chen surged with cold currents. Thick layers of profound ice encased him.
"You've lost!" Shui Bing'er declared.
*Boom*
Mu Chen moved slightly, and the ice imprisoning him shattered explosively. With a flap of his wings, he soared into the sky, moving so swiftly that Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er had no time to react. By the time they realized, Mu Chen was already riding on the ice phoenix's back.
"You dare ride me?" Shui Bing'er fumed.
After a martial soul fusion, a soul master's sense of touch aligns with their martial soul. With Mu Chen riding the ice phoenix, it was as if he were riding on Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er. As women, how could they tolerate this?
"Still not surrendering?" Mu Chen asked.
*Buzz*
An extreme cold erupted from within the ice phoenix, covering the entire stage in white frost. This chill could freeze a person's blood. Mu Chen had no choice but to channel his soul power to resist the intense cold within him.
With his soul power level at 89, Mu Chen held a significant advantage over the sisters Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er.
The eruption of this intense cold answered Mu Chen's question. Shui Bing'er was resolute in not surrendering!
"Such a stubborn beauty, and one with talent surpassing even Dai Mubai and Meng Yiran. Since you won't surrender, I'll have to use my finger!" Mu Chen smirked mischievously.
"Use your finger?"
"Use your finger?"
Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er were taken aback, the ice phoenix's eyes widening.
**True Thousand-Year Kill**
"Ah!"
"Ah!"
Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er exclaimed in unison.
Soul Power +130,000
Perhaps because it affected two people simultaneously, Mu Chen gained a substantial 130,000 soul power points from the advanced hidden task.
"Surrender?" Mu Chen asked.
"No!" Shui Bing'er replied stubbornly.
**True Thousand-Year Kill**
"Surrender?"
"No!"
**True Thousand-Year Kill**
"Surrender?"
"No! No! No!"
**True Thousand-Year Kill**
**True Thousand-Year Kill**
**True Thousand-Year Kill**
...
*Tap, tap, tap, tap, tap*
Mu Chen's finger continuously pointed forward, eliciting cries of spicy discomfort from within the ice phoenix. By the end, Mu Chen lost count of how many times he used the Thousand-Year Kill. Suddenly, the system's voice rang out.
"Ding!"
"Congratulations, you've leveled up. Current level: 89 (0/5,350,324)."
"What the heck! I leveled up!"
Mu Chen was astonished.
Initially, leveling up to 89 required over 3.5 million experience points. With each use of the True Thousand-Year Kill averaging 90,000 experience points, how many times did he use it on Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er in their martial soul fusion state?
Mu Chen's math was decent, but this problem was beyond him now.
"Surrender?" Mu Chen asked.
"I..." Shui Bing'er was confused.
Shui Bing'er wanted to say no, but the ice phoenix emitted a glow as Shui Yue'er reached her limit, forcing them to disengage from their martial soul fusion.
"Sister, I... I can't go on," Shui Yue'er apologized, blushing.
"Yue'er!" Shui Bing'er recalled everything, and after calming down, couldn't understand her earlier determination. She wasn't a match for Mu Chen, yet she refused to surrender. Was there some magic compelling her to persist? Could she be enamored with that spicy sensation?
The thought startled Shui Bing'er.
She looked at Mu Chen, her face red with a mix of shame and anger, though now tinged with something else. Clenching her hands, she lowered her head, "We surrender!"
"Ladies and gentlemen, I announce that in the fourth match of the thirteenth round, Shrek Academy is victorious. Shrek Academy has won thirteen consecutive matches without a defeat, becoming the champion of the Heaven Dou City preliminaries."
Even as Dou Dou's announcement ended, Shui Bing'er stood there. She never imagined Mu Chen would defeat her with just a finger. As a proud daughter of heaven, she felt discontented, but what could she do? Challenge him again to use that peculiar soul skill?
"Ding!"
"Congratulations, you've completed the E-level advanced experience hidden task by gently defeating Tianshui Academy. Rewards: 30 skill points, 666,000 soul power points."
