Chapter 22: Chapter: 22
"That wind attribute soul power fluctuation is probably on par with an ordinary Soul Elder's fourth soul skill," said Fire Wushuang of the Blazing Fire Team, thinking of a certain wind attribute Soul Master.
The captain of the Divine Wind Team—Feng Xiaotian.
If Chen Xuan had heard what was said, it wouldn't have surprised him. After all, this was no ordinary Rasengan.
He had added wind attribute chakra to the original Rasengan, thereby transforming the nature of the chakra. This is why others could sense the strong wind attribute soul power.
On the stage, the Elephant Armored Team members halted their fight, their attention drawn to the dazzling blue light. They were utterly puzzled—wasn't that guy supposed to be an ordinary auxiliary Soul Elder according to the information? How could he possess such a powerful offensive soul skill?
Tang San, Dai Mubai, Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and Huang Yuan stopped their actions and turned to look at Chen Xuan.
Huyan Qi's expression changed slightly, with cold sweat forming on his forehead. The Elephant Armored Clan was famous for its strong defenses, but now, when he saw that blue orb, he couldn't help but feel uneasy.
Pointing at Chen Xuan, Huyan Qi said with some fear, "You... who exactly are you? You're definitely not from the auxiliary system!"
"When did I ever say I was from the auxiliary system?" Chen Xuan smiled faintly, holding the large Rasengan high, preparing to attack.
Huyan Qi didn't dare be careless. No longer underestimating this seemingly young pretty boy, he conjured a diamond shield, readying his defense.
The others did not continue fighting, wanting to see how powerful Chen Xuan's soul skill truly was.
Huyan Gai, who was battling Xiao Wu, also watched leisurely. Little did he know, a crisis was looming over him.
"Come on, kid. Even if you're not as simple as you appear, my Mammoth Tusks' defense isn't something to be taken lightly," Huyan Li said in a deep voice, holding the diamond shield in front of him.
There was no room for doubt— the Elephant Armored Clan was renowned for its defense, and among soul masters of the same level, few could break through it. Even if Chen Xuan had considerable combat power, it would be easy to handle if he faced an undefended Huyan Qi. But in this situation, most were not optimistic.
"Who told you that you were my target?" Chen Xuan thought, focusing on the seal on Xiao Wu's skirt hem.
Huyan Gai, standing in the distance, was confused. What did that mean? Why did he suddenly feel a chill down his spine?
But aside from the little girl with the scorpion braid in front of him, there seemed to be no other threats, right?
Huyan Gai looked utterly bewildered, but the next moment, his confusion turned to terror.
His eyes widened in fear. What did he see? That pretty boy with a blue light orb suddenly appeared right before him out of thin air.
"Dammit!" Huyan Gai cursed, feeling the urge to curse even more. It turned out that Chen Xuan's attack was aimed at him.
There was no time to use a defensive soul skill. He could do nothing but watch as the blue orb enlarged in front of his eyes.
"Wind Release: Giant Rasengan!"
With a muffled bang, the area was filled with blue light, and a fierce gale erupted. The basin-sized orb slammed directly into Huyan Gai's body.
"Ah!"
On the stage, a scream like that of a pig being slaughtered echoed across the entire arena.
Huyan Gai's face twisted in pain, his chest skin and flesh distorted and deformed, blood oozing out. His entire body flew backward like a cannonball, spinning 360 degrees before crashing into the edge of the wall, raising a cloud of dust.
The dust hung in the air for a long time before it dissipated, revealing his figure embedded in the wall.
Huyan Gai's eyes rolled back, and he had already lost consciousness. Another member of the Elephant Armored Team was eliminated.
Seeing this, the team captain, Huyan Li, grew increasingly grim. At this rate, the Elephant Armored Team was bound to lose.
He could no longer care about morality. Silently activating the ability of his head soul bone, his entire body filled with power as he charged toward Tang San, the smallest of them all.
"Hmm?"
Tang San reacted quickly, sensing danger instantly. When he turned his head, Huyan Li was already less than a meter away.
Caught off guard, Tang San could only use his Mysterious Jade Hand to block, gripping Huyan Li's tusk tightly.
"Brother, I'll help you!" Xiao Wu said anxiously, worried for her third brother, and instantly teleported over.
Huyan Li snorted coldly, and his gleaming white tusks glowed. With a hiss, a wave of air surged outward.
He quickly thrust out a kick, aiming directly at Tang San's groin.
Tang San's face changed drastically. He hadn't expected the opponent's move to be so vicious. In the end, with no other choice, he had to release his grip on the ivory tusks and use his hands to block.
With the obstruction gone, Huyan Li's head slammed into Tang San's chest. A cracking sound echoed, accompanied by the sound of bones breaking.
"Ugh!"
Tang San groaned, spitting out a mouthful of blood as his entire body was sent flying, landing near the edge of the stage, barely avoiding elimination.
"Third Brother!"
Xiao Wu instantly appeared beside him, but it was too late—Tang San was injured.
"Xiao San!"
The Shrek team shouted in panic, their faces full of worry.
Seeing his close brother injured, Dai Mubai was enraged. He couldn't hold back anymore and didn't want to hide his strength any longer.
"Zhuqing!" he shouted, planning to use that move to end the match and avenge Xiao San.
Zhu Zhuqing did not resist and agreed.
"Martial Soul Fusion Technique, Nether White Tiger!" On the stage, a giant beast appeared, resembling both a cat and a tiger, a fusion of the White Tiger and Nether Spirit Cat Martial Souls.
"This is bad!"
Huyan Li's face changed drastically. Even with his skull bone, he couldn't withstand the attack of a Martial Soul Fusion Technique.
The situation had escalated to this point, and he didn't want to lose the match. Gradually, his gaze fixed on Xiao Wu and Oscar in the background, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes.
He charged straight towards them. Not only could he defeat Xiao Wu, but he could also strike the Shrek team in the back, taking out Oscar and the injured Tang San. At that point, even the Martial Soul Fusion Technique wouldn't be a threat.
"Second Soul Skill, Mammoth Strength!"
"Third Soul Skill, Death Crush!"
"Fourth Soul Skill, Thousand-Jin Charge!"
In an instant, Huyan Li activated three soul skills on himself and then triggered the ability of his skull bone, causing his body to swell even larger.
A massive mammoth appeared outside his body, its enormous form and terrifying tusks glinting with a cold light.
"This is bad, Xiao Wu, get out of the way!" Dai Mubai suddenly realized the danger and shouted urgently.
The two had just started moving when the rest of the Elephant Armored Team blocked their path, preventing them from advancing.
At this moment, Xiao Wu's thoughts were entirely on Tang San, and she hadn't noticed the situation around her.
By the time she came to her senses, it was too late to dodge—the enormous mammoth's shadow was looming over her.
"Die! Victory belongs to the Elephant Armored Team!" Huyan Li roared, unleashing his strongest killing move to annihilate the Shrek team.
Xiao Wu's face turned pale. She tried to use her instant step to avoid the attack, but when she activated her soul ring, she realized she was out of soul power. She had used too much of it earlier while trying to save Tang San.
That kind of attack had already reached the level of a typical Soul King's fifth soul skill, something she, as a Soul Elder, couldn't possibly withstand.
Xiao Wu's face grew even paler, and she closed her eyes in despair, unable to face what was coming.
But after waiting for a long time, she didn't feel any pain. Confused, she opened her eyes and saw a flash of lightning in front of her. A tall figure stood before her, taking the brunt of the attack that was as powerful as a Soul King's strike.
"Chen... Chen Xuan!" she exclaimed in disbelief.
Blood dripped from the corner of Chen Xuan's mouth, and the skin on his palms was torn open, with blood continuously seeping out.
At this moment, he had drained every bit of his chakra, weaving a large net of lightning that collided with Huyan Li's full-force strike.
"Get out of the way!" Chen Xuan growled, his mouth full of blood. Cracks appeared on his arms—he was at his limit.
"You think you can stop me? You're courting death!" Huyan Li's face was cold as he increased the release of his soul power.
The electric net disappeared. Chen Xuan had exhausted the last of his chakra, and his body was completely empty. He couldn't hold on any longer.
Knowing he couldn't dodge the attack, in his final moment, he delivered a back kick that sent Xiao Wu flying to a safer distance.
Boom!
The next moment, a massive soul power explosion erupted on the stage. The sharp tusks of the mammoth pierced Chen Xuan's body, ripping two large gashes in his abdomen, causing blood to flow freely.
Huyan Li's face remained emotionless as he grabbed Chen Xuan by the head, lifting him like a ragdoll, and flung him off the stage.
With a thud, Chen Xuan crashed into the wall and lost consciousness completely.
"Chen Xuan!" Xiao Wu screamed.
Seeing this, Jiangzhu in the audience covered her mouth, a tear slipping down her cheek.
"Xuanzi!" Tai Long jumped over the railing and rushed toward Chen Xuan.
