The team captain from the sideline spoke in an icy tone, "Hmph, I hope you can survive after encountering us."
After he spoke, his teammates shifted their gazes away and turned to look at the competition stage...
Only, those gazes were like those of predators eyeing their prey...
Xiao Xiao, seeing this, clenched her fists and said, "Damn it, if we meet them, we must defeat them completely!"
Wu Feng's voice was unusually solemn as he said, "These people don't look simple; I always feel there's something repulsive about them."
Ling Luoshang sighed, "Don't let the other side provoke you so easily and affect your emotions! Otherwise, it'll be trouble when it's time to fight."
As the people conversed among themselves, the situation on the stage had also undergone a significant change...
The Holy Spirit Battle Team on the stage had been continuously attacking their opponents with soul tools, but this time the team they were facing was also fully prepared and directly activated their defensive soul devices...
All the soul tool attacks were instantly blocked...
At that moment, the captain of the Holy Spirit Battle Team cracked a cold smile, decisively dropping the soul tool in his hand, and the other team members also threw the soul tools they were holding onto the ground...
The members of the Cang Lan Battle Team were astonished, "What? They actually discarded their soul tools? Are they preparing to admit defeat?"
"Don't let your guard down! This is very likely a tactic of theirs!"
"That's right, they might be trying to make us underestimate them and then defeat us in one fell swoop!"
The captain of the Holy Spirit Battle Team licked his lips, "It's useless! You won't be able to leave the competition arena alive."
Having said this, he turned and nodded at the members of his team...
In an instant, they all burst forth with a terrifying Soul Power, and Evil Martial Souls with an ominous aura quietly appeared behind them...
They had in fact two Soul Sages and five Soul Emperors!
The members of the Cang Lan Battle Team were dumbfounded, "Wha... What? Two Soul Sages, five Soul Emperors!!"
"They're not a soul tool team at all, we've all been deceived!"
Another team member said with a trembling voice, "Look at their Martial Souls! All of them are Evil Martial Souls! They're really evil Soul Masters from the Holy Spirit Cult!"
The captain of the Cang Lan Battle Team shouted, "Be careful everyone!! Not a single team that has fought this team has avoided casualties!"
The captain of the Holy Spirit Battle Team took out a sickle, and the fifth soul ring at his feet lit up...
"Fifth Soul Skill! Scythe of the Wraith! Despair now!"
Immediately, he began to swing the sickle wildly, and countless Resentful Spirits that he had slaughtered surged forth from the sickle, launching a surprise attack on the opponents...
The captain of the Cang Lan Battle Team's fourth soul ring suddenly lit up beneath his feet...
"Fourth Soul Skill, Holy Soul Shield!"
A massive Light Shield engulfed all the members of the Cang Lan Battle Team...
The captain of the Holy Spirit Battle Team raised an eyebrow and scoffed, "You think this weak defense can stop us? Go on, attack!"
The team member next to him had his third soul ring light up...
"Third Soul Skill, Wail of the Ghost Spirit!"
The Ghost Spirit behind him let out a roar, and countless black vortices erupted from its mouth, slamming into the Light Shield...
The massive Light Shield had no resistance and was immediately weakened by the assault...
At the same time, the other members of the Holy Spirit Battle Team also released their own terrifying soul skills...
One after another, the soul rings of the evil Soul Masters lit up beneath them…
Fifth Soul Skill, Curse of the Undead!
Sixth Soul Skill, Earth-shattering Demon Spirit!
Without the Light Shield's protection, the members of the Cang Lan Battle Team were gradually eradicated under this terrifying attack!
When the dense Black Mist dissipated, only seven corpses, corroded by the Revenants, remained on the field…
They were the seven members of the Cang Lan Battle Team!
Not a single person survived this battle…
The spectators below all roared in outrage…
"Evil Soul Masters! Why are evil Soul Masters allowed to participate in this Continental Soul Master Elite Competition?!"
"What exactly is the organizer playing at?? How could they possibly allow evil Soul Masters to enter??"
"Could it be that even the Sun-Moon Empire is in collusion with the Holy Spirit Cult? Otherwise, with such obvious characteristics of evil Soul Masters, how could they have successfully registered for the competition?"
Looking from the Tang Sect's side, Huo Yuhao exclaimed in shock, "How dare they release their Evil Martial Souls and kill the seven opponents in front of so many Soul Masters!"
And looking at the faces of each of these evil Soul Masters, not a single one showed the slightest hint of panic!
Clearly, they were very confident that they would not be punished!
Bei Bei clenched his fists and said in an icy tone, "What exactly is the Sun-Moon Empire doing? They actually allow evil Soul Masters from the Holy Spirit Cult to participate in the competition, and moreover… they could have given the order to stop this just now!"
Tang Ya patted his shoulder, "Bei Bei, calm down a bit. Maybe it's just a coincidence. Even the Sun-Moon Empire wouldn't be so brazen as to let evil Soul Masters compete."
Wang Dong'er asked in confusion, "If they were evil Soul Masters, shouldn't they have been immediately detected by the soul tool upon entering the hotel?"
Ma Xiaotao, with her arms crossed and pondering, said gravely, "No… these evil Soul Masters might also be wearing some kind of soul tool that can shield detection."
Meanwhile, the elder on the stage looked down at Juzi with cloudy eyes…
He saw Juzi nod slightly!
Then the elder shouted coldly, "Men, arrest these seven evil Soul Masters! They will await judgment!"
In an instant, dozens of soldiers from the Sun-Moon Empire rushed out onto the stage, surrounded the seven evil Soul Masters, and captured them…
After the mighty troops of the Sun-Moon Empire escorted the seven evil Soul Masters away…
The elder on the stage looked down with a full apology, "This time it was our Sun-Moon Empire's lack of preparedness that allowed these detestable evil Soul Masters to take advantage."
"But we guarantee that, after the end of this competition, we will publicly execute them one by one! At the same time, I represent the Sun-Moon Empire in offering the most sincere apology to the Elite Soul Masters persecuted by these evil Soul Masters."
"Of course, the Sun-Moon Empire will also provide compensation to the sects and academies that have been greatly damaged. We hope this incident will not cause you to lose trust in our empire!"
Hearing the Sun-Moon Empire take such action, there was a round of enthusiastic applause from the crowd…
"Good! I almost thought that the Sun-Moon Empire was in collusion with the Holy Spirit Cult. It seems it was just negligence that allowed them to infiltrate the competition."
"That's right! I also believe the Sun-Moon Empire wouldn't be foolish enough to deal with an organization as dangerous as the Holy Spirit Cult, much less collaborate!"
"Indeed, I haven't misjudged the Sun-Moon Empire. Those damned evil Soul Masters will one day be completely eradicated by us!"
Seeing this, the corners of the elder's mouth subtly curved into a smile…
He then continued, "Now, the next match will be between Shrek Academy and the Xuehua Team! The type of battle: Team Battle!"
