Chapter 197: Two Ten Thousand Year Soul Rings, Shocking the Audience!
An Invincible Golden Body Experience Card?!
As soon as the system reward appeared, Su Yun became excited.
What he lacked the most right now was naturally means of protecting himself.
Although Tang Hao was already dead, there was no guarantee that others wouldn't target him in secret.
After all, for the Upper Three Sects and the two major empires, the Spirit Hall had always been a thorn they wanted to remove.
And himself, who was training outside, happened to fit the criteria of those he could strike against.
"This kind of BUG-level skill, it's a pity there's only one card, unlike Xiao Wu's third soul skill, which happens to be an Invincible Golden Body," Su Yun could only click his tongue at this.
However, the Invincible Golden Body can only be used three times a day. In a sense, if Su Yun could get more than three Invincible Golden Body Experience Cards, then he would almost be invincible throughout.
After organizing his thoughts for a while, Su Yun finally walked out of the lounge, following the directions of the staff, heading towards the trial area of the Great Soul Arena.
At the same time, the members of the Godwind Academy's team and Huo Wu also walked out of the lounge.
This time, only Huo Wu was replaced for the battle.
...
The curtain falls.
Great Soul Arena.
The seats from all directions were filled with spectators who had come from the surrounding cities, almost to the point of being packed to the brim.
Some people even went so far as to spend money to buy suspended tickets, directly having the organizers hang them from the roof of the Great Soul Arena!
It could be seen how much they anticipated this match.
Apart from the enthusiasm of the audience, the gambling dens in the Spirit Hall City today were naturally more than ten times livelier than usual!
Holy Son of Spirit Hall VS Godwind Academy's team!
For such a sensational match, if it weren't for making some Soul Coins, wouldn't it be a waste of resources?
Betting on Su Yun's victory, the odds were seven to one.
Betting on Godwind Academy's victory, the odds were three to one.
Obviously, most people still favored Godwind Academy.
Apart from the numerical advantage of Godwind Academy, the main reason most people bet on them winning was Captain Feng Xiaotian's Thirty-Six Consecutive Slashes of the Gale Demon Wolf.
It is said that Feng Xiaotian's self-created soul skill could defeat Soul Masters when he was a Soul Ancestor.
Now, they heard from unofficial sources that Feng Xiaotian seemed to have stepped into the Soul Sage at level forty, but it's uncertain whether he managed to obtain a Soul Ring in time.
If Feng Xiaotian has obtained the fourth Soul Ring already, perhaps he could lead the team members to defeat Su Yun, the Holy Son of Spirit Hall!
...
As the exciting opening by the Great Soul Arena's host concluded, the members of both sides gradually walked out from the entrance.
"Look! That's the Holy Son of Spirit Hall, Su Yun!"
"He's so handsome! Is he really only twelve years old?"
"Tch, what's the use of being handsome? Can it put food on the table?"
"Hmph, you lowly man, at twelve he's already a king-ranked powerhouse, what's your realm?!"
"Eh? Why did a girl come out from Godwind Academy's side? I remember Godwind Academy's members were all boys, right?"
"Now that you mention it, it does seem like that, did they change players at the last minute?"
"Wow! I think I know her, she's not from Godwind Academy, she's Huo Wu from Blazing Academy!"
Someone suddenly recognized Huo Wu's identity, immediately causing an uproar and shocking countless people around.
"What?! She's from Blazing Academy? How did she end up here?"
"That's not the point, the point is why she's allowed to participate? Even if she's also a member of the Five Elements Academy, this is Godwind Academy's match, what's the point of having a Blazing Academy student compete?"
"Oh no! I heard the Holy Son of Spirit Hall's martial soul is an extraordinary plant martial soul, could it be that Huo Wu was specifically invited by Godwind Academy to counter the Holy Son of Spirit Hall's?"
"No way? Godwind Academy wouldn't stoop so low, would they?"
"I don't think so. The Holy Son of Spirit Hall challenging Godwind Academy seems like a premeditated move."
"Think about it, why didn't he go challenge Blazing Academy from the beginning? It's obvious he's afraid of his plant martial soul being countered by Blazing Academy."
"Now that there's an extra member from Blazing Academy in Godwind Academy, it's a perfect opportunity to give him a hard time."
"Haha, you're saying this before the match, but now it's clear you're just hoping for the Holy Son of Spirit Hall to lose. I bet you've wagered quite a bit of money on Godwind Academy's victory, haven't you?"
"Don't think I didn't notice, didn't you also bet on that kid from Spirit Hall to win?!"
"Want to fight?!"
"Bring it on!"
"Stop! Stop! Don't fight!"
...
The trial in the audience seats hadn't even begun yet, but there were already several skirmishes erupting among the spectators.
However, people from Spirit Hall and the City Lord's Mansion quickly subdued them and gave them warnings.
Then, with the explanation from the host, everyone learned that the Holy Son of Spirit Hall had actually agreed to the opponent's substitution.
"Wow! The Holy Son of Spirit Hall is truly worthy of his title, with absolute confidence in his own strength. It's not in vain that I wagered half my property on him."
"A powerhouse at the level of Soul King, terrifying!"
"Although a Soul Sage is just one level above a Soul King, it's a difference of a ten-thousand-year Soul Ring!"
"Looks like we're in for a show today."
...
Seeing the match about to begin, the audience in attendance began to shout.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the entire Godwind City Great Soul Arena was pushed to its climax.
Huo Wu walked at the forefront of the Godwind Academy team, looking at Su Yun standing opposite. The latter always had a faint smile on his face, showing no signs of nervousness.
"He's not afraid of me? Or is he just pretending?" Huo Wu wondered.
The Fire-Overcoming Grass, this was an unchangeable theorem.
So she wanted to know what kind of cards this Holy Son from Spirit Hall still held in his hands.
After all, even if he was a Soul King, once his martial soul encountered her flames, it would only end in ashes unless he dodged.
While Huo Wu observed Su Yun, Tang San was hiding among the sea of spectators with a straw hat, silently watching the upcoming match.
He had thought that today's match would be difficult to predict, but when he heard that not only had Godwind Academy added a member from Blazing Academy, but even Su Yun had no objections to letting the opponent take the field, a cold smile immediately surfaced in his heart.
Even if Teacher Yu Xiaogang hadn't said it, being born in the Tang Sect, he also understood the principle of mutual generation and restraint among all things.
Su Yun's martial soul, even if it was the top-tier Blue Silver Emperor, would only be unlucky when faced with flames.
"Su Yun, oh Su Yun, you're really arrogant. Do you think that having a top-tier martial soul and the strength of a Soul King means you can take on multiple opponents alone?" Tang San chuckled inwardly.
Teacher had once told him that team matches were not about individual combat.
Seven people together could increase their overall strength by geometric proportions.
"Now that Godwind Academy has added someone to counter you, tonight will surely be the day you lose all face!" He looked down at the figure standing alone in the arena, a trace of coldness flickering in his eyes.
For tonight, he had prepared another unusual match for Su Yun...
...
Inside the Great Soul Arena.
The host flying in the air saw that the time had come and looked down below, asking loudly, "Are both sides ready?"
With Su Yun and Feng Xiaotian's affirmative responses, the host finally spoke up again with a loud voice, "Let the match begin!"
Boom!
As soon as the host's voice fell, the seven members of Godwind Academy immediately revealed their martial souls!
Uniformly yellow and purple soul rings!
The optimal configuration of soul rings!
However, some people suddenly noticed a glaring presence among the soul rings of the Godwind Academy members.
"Look! Feng Xiaotian already has a fourth soul ring!"
Someone shouted loudly, countless gazes converging to see the four yellow and purple soul rings arranged in sequence under Feng Xiaotian's feet, showcasing his true identity as a Soul Sage!
"No wonder Godwind Academy dares to accept the challenge invitation from the Holy Son of Spirit Hall. It turns out they already have confidence."
"As long as Feng Xiaotian can unleash the final blow of the Thirty-Six Consecutive Slashes of the Gale Demon Wolf, even the Holy Son of Spirit Hall can only admit defeat."
In the audience seats, some people were already thinking that Godwind Academy's chances of winning were subtly surpassing Su Yun's.
Suddenly, another scream rang out!
"Look! The Holy Son of Spirit Hall actually has two ten-thousand-year soul rings!"
Swish!
Swish!
Swish!
Five soul rings emerged from beneath Su Yun's feet, with two large black rings enveloping the other three, captivating the eyes of everyone present!
"Tw...two ten-thousand-year soul rings!"
"How is this possible?!"
"How can someone have their fourth soul ring be a ten-thousand-year soul ring?!"
"Hmph! The Holy Son of Spirit Hall is the strongest genius of Martial Soul Hall. What's wrong with having a ten-thousand-year soul ring as the fourth one?"
Many of the bettors who had wagered on Su Yun's victory now wore proud expressions upon seeing his two ten-thousand-year soul rings, as if those two rings were theirs.
"Two ten-thousand-year soul rings!" Tang San, seeing the two ten-thousand-year soul rings beneath Su Yun's feet, was stunned. He distinctly remembered his teacher telling him that a soul master's third soul ring could never exceed a thousand years!
How did Su Yun manage this?!
Suddenly, Tang San seemed to recall what his father had once told him. It seemed that people with stronger martial soul qualities had a greater tolerance for soul rings, which was why some soul masters, despite appearing to have similar soul power levels and soul rings, actually had differences in strength.
It was like absorbing a ten-thousand-year soul ring and a fifteen-thousand-year soul ring. While the difference might not seem significant from the outside, if you looked inside the soul master's body, the disparity in improvement would definitely exist!
"Damn it!"
Tang San's expression immediately darkened, his eyes filled with jealousy towards Su Yun.
If it weren't for Su Yun snatching away his Blue Silver Emperor martial soul, then it would undoubtedly be him who could possess ten-thousand-year soul rings at the Soul Sage stage!
Ever since he heard on the street that Su Yun had already reached the Soul King realm, Tang San had been burning with jealousy!
And now, seeing Su Yun surpassing his predecessors by directly possessing ten-thousand-year soul rings at the Soul Sage stage, Tang San could no longer contain his jealousy! All of this should have been his!
If it weren't for this guy, Su Yun, who became a lackey of Martial Soul Hall and snatched away his martial soul when he awakened his martial soul on the streets, how could he and his father have ended up in this situation today?!
How could his teacher have been captured by Martial Soul Hall?
It was all because of Su Yun, who had become a lackey of Martial Soul Hall!
Tang San stared fixedly at Su Yun in the arena, silently swearing that tonight, he would kill Su Yun!
Inside the arena.
The members of Godwind Academy, as well as Feng Wuji and Huo Wushuang observing behind them, were all momentarily stunned when they saw the two ten-thousand-year soul rings beneath Su Yun's feet.
Especially Feng Wuji, a powerhouse who had roamed the continent for decades, it was also the first time he had seen someone actually able to absorb ten-thousand-year soul rings at the third soul ring!
This shock was no less than when he witnessed Su Yun displaying the realm of a Soul King at the age of twelve!
"Te...ten-thousand-year soul rings?! Isn't this too unbelievable?"
"Captain, it seems like we're in for a tough battle today."
The members of Godwind Academy looked at the lush vegetation appearing around Su Yun's feet and their eyes became serious.
Although they were amazed by Su Yun's extraordinary strength, how could anyone who could join the Godwind Academy team and become a member under Feng Wuji's command be someone who retreated in the face of adversity?
They were already prepared to go all out!
On the side, after a brief shock, Huo Wu's contracted pupils slowly returned to normal. After exchanging a glance with Feng Wuji, everything became clear.
No matter how many ten-thousand-year soul rings Su Yun had, as long as his martial soul was still plants, their plan would still be effective.
"Attack!"
At Feng Wuji's command, the seven of them who had been together split apart simultaneously!
Seven against one. If they were to have a wheel battle, it would be like the seven Little Heroes rescuing Grandpa.
Since the opponent requested a one-versus-seven match, they naturally had to take advantage of their numbers, directly overwhelming the opponent with thunderous momentum and leaving no room for escape.
"Buzz!"
Amidst the cheers of the audience as the match began, two students from Godwind Academy each illuminated their hundred-year and thousand-year soul rings.
"First soul skill, Wind Rope!"
"Third soul skill, Wind Field!"
The two of them were control system soul masters from Godwind Academy, their martial souls both related to the natural element of wind.
Controlling the wind was as easy as breathing for them.
And because of the monotonous nature of their martial souls, the soul skills they obtained after absorbing soul rings were also very simple.
Whoosh!
In an instant, a strong wind rose from the west side of the arena, sweeping towards Su Yun's position like waves!
Feng Wuji had also long since integrated his martial soul, his entire body radiating with blue light, a blue, ferocious wolf head appearing on his left shoulder, accompanied by the shining of his first hundred-year soul ring. In a calm voice, he also issued a command from his mouth, "First soul skill, Wind Blade Array!"
Swish!
Swish!
Swish!
Suddenly, numerous semi-circular blue wind blades flew out from the claws covered in wolf hair in his hand. In the blink of an eye, they aimed at Su Yun's surroundings like a storm, seemingly sealing off all of his escape routes, leaving him no room to escape.
At the same time, a red figure, like a flame, surged within the wind field, rushing towards Su Yun!
