Chapitre 20: Chapter: 20
Shrek's tactics were highly effective. After this round of attacks, the Elephant Armored Academy team suffered greatly, with all members sustaining injuries to varying degrees.
The Blue Silver Grass vines that had entangled the Elephant Armored team were shattered after Dai Mubai's White Tiger Meteor Shower. With that, Tang San's control was lifted, and they were freed from their bindings.
At this moment, the Shrek team also landed on the ground, their wings disappearing as the effect of the Flying Mushroom Sausages wore off.
"Good, very good, Shrek Academy," Hu Yanli said with a grim expression, his eyes gleaming with a menacing light.
"You've forced my hand!" he roared, his muscles bulging, as a dark light emitted from the top of his head, and his soul power surged wildly.
The Shrek team's eyes narrowed, sensing that something unexpected was about to happen.
Dai Mubai suddenly opened his mouth, and a beam of light shot out, heading straight for Hu Yanli.
Hu Yanli, now brimming with soul power, allowed the dark light on his head to dissipate, revealing an earthy yellow helmet.
With a loud *bang*, the helmet emitted a wave of soul power, blocking the White Tiger Light Wave that Dai Mubai had just shot.
"What is that? What's that thing on his head?" Many in the audience were puzzled, but none dared to underestimate it.
The Shrek team was equally baffled. How did Hu Yanli suddenly have an earthy yellow helmet on his head?
"It's not just a helmet; it's a head soul bone," Chen Xuan murmured.
"A soul bone!" His words stunned the Shrek team.
Soul bones are precious treasures, even rarer than ten-thousand-year soul rings. Especially a head soul bone, which even the most powerful soul masters might not possess.
No one had expected that a head soul bone would appear in this match.
On the VIP platform, Hu Yanzhen, the leader of the Elephant Armored Clan, watched with a wicked smile on his lips.
Emperor Xue Ye looked at the clan leader in astonishment, surprised that Hu Yanzhen had been so generous to his grandson, gifting him such a rare and precious item as a head soul bone.
Among the six types of soul bones, the head soul bone is the most valuable. Everyone knows its worth is astronomical, and they are rarely sold, making them practically priceless.
Even Platinum Bishop Salas couldn't help but glance at Hu Yanzhen a few more times.
In the arena:
After summoning the head soul bone, Hu Yanli's attributes had made a qualitative leap. His defense and attack power now reached the level of an average Soul King.
The sudden appearance of the soul bone was something even Tang San hadn't anticipated, meaning that his strategy had essentially failed.
"Tang San, what should we do now? Should we use that move?" Dai Mubai asked as he returned to Tang San's side, his expression somewhat grave.
Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu, and Huang Yuan also retreated, no longer attacking.
"His soul bone must consume a lot of soul power. You all focus on dealing with the rest of the Elephant Armored team. Oscar, you provide sausages for recovery. I'll handle Hu Yanli," Tang San said calmly, deciding that this was the best course of action.
Finally, he added, "Unless absolutely necessary, let's avoid using the Martial Soul Fusion technique for now."
The Shrek team nodded, dispersing to find their respective opponents.
Besides Hu Yanli, the Elephant Armored team had two other Soul Elders, while the rest were Soul Masters—no real threat.
"Hu Yanli, I'll take you on," Tang San said, his eyes flashing with purple light.
Hu Yanli's expression was grim as he stepped forward. A one-on-one fight suited him perfectly. This Blue Silver Grass soul master had caused the Elephant Armored team great losses.
He was determined to avenge his fallen brothers and cripple this Blue Silver Grass soul master.
Tang San's expression remained calm. He hadn't even revealed his full hand yet. With abilities like Mysterious Jade Hand, Purple Demon Eyes, and Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, even a Soul King wouldn't necessarily be able to outmatch him.
"Third Soul Skill, White Tiger Vajra Transformation!" Dai Mubai activated his White Tiger Vajra Transformation soul skill once again, clashing with Hu Yanba.
As the team's strongest assault-type soul master, his job was to face the opponent with the highest soul power. But since Tang San had spoken, he had to settle for the second-strongest opponent.
In the blink of an eye, the two exchanged dozens of blows—punches, palm strikes, whip kicks, and soul skills—each move dazzling, but all were blocked by Hu Yanba.
Meanwhile, Zhu Zhuqing faced off against Hu Yanshan in a battle between agility and defense.
Xiao Wu and Huang Yuan also found their own opponents, while Oscar, being a support-type soul master, naturally had no combat power.
The audience hadn't expected this turn of events. What had started as a team battle had evolved into a series of one-on-one duels.
However, even in these individual fights, Shrek only had five battle soul masters, while the Elephant Armored team had six. The extra person could potentially shift the outcome of the battle.
"What were they thinking? Shrek shouldn't have sent two support-type soul masters into the match. What was their team leader thinking?" Many in the audience grumbled, especially those who had bet on Shrek's victory.
Oscar clenched his fists, wishing he could help out. Even if he could just hold off one last opponent, it would be something. But he had no combat power; he was merely a food-type soul master.
"Let me handle it," Chen Xuan's voice suddenly rang out.
Oscar turned around, looking at Chen Xuan in disbelief. How could he even think of doing this? Although Hu Yanqi was a defense-type soul master, he wasn't lacking in combat power. How could a support-type soul master possibly stand a chance against him?
"Brother Chen, calm down. Tang San and Boss Dai still have cards up their sleeves!" Oscar shouted anxiously, stepping forward to grab Chen Xuan's hand, trying to stop him from doing something reckless.
However, just as he was about to touch Chen Xuan, something unexpected happened. Chen Xuan's figure seemed to become an illusion, slipping past Oscar. Although his speed wasn't fast, he left an afterimage in place.
Some sharp-eyed high-level soul masters caught sight of this, their gazes fixed on him. They realized that this person had some tricks up his sleeve and might not be as simple as he appeared.
But that was all. After all, how could a support-type soul master possibly defeat a defense-type soul master?
Hu Yanqi, the only free agent on the field, wasn't idle. He turned his gaze to a girl with a scorpion braid, thinking she would be the easiest to deal with.
Xiao Wu's soul power wasn't very high, only at level thirty-nine. She could easily handle one Soul Elder, but against two, she didn't stand a chance.
Moreover, the Elephant Armored team's defense was almost impenetrable. No matter how she attacked with her teleportation skill, it had no effect, and she couldn't break through their defense.
Hu Yanqi had already noticed that Hu Yanqi was quietly approaching Xiao Wu. He smiled wickedly and immediately activated his first soul skill, Copper Wall Iron Bastion, raising his giant shield and starting to force Xiao Wu back.
After several unsuccessful attacks, Xiao Wu decided to temporarily retreat. However, she didn't realize that danger was slowly closing in on her.
"Little sister, time to go down!"
Just as Xiao Wu landed, a lewd voice sounded behind her. Somehow, Hu Yanqi had managed to raise his diamond shield and was bringing it down on her.
Her expression tightened as the wind from the blow lifted her hair, indicating the power of the strike.
Xiao Wu realized that she had been careless, but it was too late to do anything about it now.
She instinctively tried to dodge, but the situation left her with no time to react. The massive shield was already coming down on her.
At this moment, Tang San, who was the closest to her, was still twenty to thirty meters away—too far to release his Blue Silver Grass in time to help her.
Chen Xuan's heart skipped a beat, and in the next instant, he vanished from where he stood.
At the critical moment, Xiao Wu saw a flash of golden light before her eyes as a figure appeared in front of her.
Chen Xuan's fists crackled with arcs of electricity as he extended his palms to directly block the incoming shield.
With a loud *bang*, the ground cracked, and a wave of energy rippled out.
