Chapter 207: Dai Mubai vs. Roman
When Dai Mubai appeared, as usual, he gave the little cat on the stands a deep, hurt expression.
The little cat seemed to have developed immunity and was seriously playing with her nails, ignoring him completely.
As the saying goes, when you're in front of someone who dislikes you, even if you hang yourself, they'll just think you're playing on a swing.
However, Dai Mubai wasn't upset. Big Wet had already taught him the lesson—patience was the best way to handle women. He and Liu Erlong had gone through a long twenty-year journey of romance.
Snapping back to his senses, he decided to use this match as an opportunity to prove the changes he had made after losing her. If it didn't work, he would keep winning until the little cat changed her mind.
"Roman, martial soul Mandala Snake, 41st-level Control Soul Ancestor, please guide me."
"Dai Mubai, martial soul White Tiger, 43rd-level Strength Attack Soul Ancestor, please guide me."
After introducing himself, Dai Mubai glanced at Roman, the snake-woman's graceful figure, and couldn't help but swallow.
But remembering that Zhu Zhuqing was watching from the stands, he quickly snapped back to focus. He knew he could no longer afford to do anything that might cause the little cat to think less of him.
"Third Soul Skill: White Tiger Vajra Transformation, First Soul Skill: White Tiger Shield."
Wanting to make this fight a decisive victory, Dai Mubai was the first to attack. He had no intention of testing his opponent; he immediately used his third soul skill, boosting his strength and soul power by 100%.
Roman wasn't planning to sit idly by either. As Dai Mubai charged, both her first and third soul rings flickered simultaneously.
"Third Soul Skill: Summon Venom, First Soul Skill: Snake Tail Bind!"
After doubling the toxicity, the Mandala Snake behind her extended its tail into the ground. Then, countless snake tails shot up from the earth, wrapping around Dai Mubai.
Fortunately, Dai Mubai knew that Roman was a poison master and had activated his White Tiger Shield in advance. Although he was momentarily restricted, he wasn't harmed by the poison.
Looking at Roman not far away, Dai Mubai's second soul ring flashed, and he shot several light orbs toward her.
"Second Soul Skill: White Tiger Lightwave."
As the lightwave approached, the Mandala Snake coiled into a ball, shielding Roman.
With a loud "boom," Roman staggered but didn't suffer significant damage.
However, Dai Mubai took advantage of this time to break free from the snake tail's grip, leaping into the air as his fourth soul ring glowed.
"Fourth Soul Skill: White Tiger Meteor Shower!"
Countless light meteors rained down on Roman, causing her to frown. At the same time, her fourth soul ring also lit up.
"Fourth Soul Skill: Toxic Twister!"
A green tornado rushed toward the falling light meteors, and the arena was filled with the sounds of intense explosions and the howling of the wind.
For a moment, neither of their soul skills could overcome the other. However, Dai Mubai seized the opportunity to close the distance. As the Mandala Snake continued to release the tornado, he quietly landed on the ground, gathering strength in his legs and charging toward Roman.
"White Tiger Lightwave!"
The lightwave, now much closer, startled Roman. She quickly canceled her fourth soul skill and used her snake tail to block the incoming lightwaves.
"Boom," "Boom."
Dai Mubai's close-quarters attack successfully broke through the snake tail's defense, and the remaining meteor shower light rained down on Roman.
A scream rang out as Roman was clearly injured, but as expected from a top student of Tiandou Royal Academy, she forced herself to release her second soul skill despite the pain.
"Emerald Wave!"
A burst of poisonous mist surrounded the two of them, and then it suddenly exploded. Dai Mubai's fist landed on Roman's chest, sending her flying off the stage.
"Roman!"
Ye Lingling and Yu Tianheng quickly rushed over to check Roman's injuries. Ye Lingling even pulled out her Nine-Star Begonia to begin healing her.
Fortunately, the injuries were light and wouldn't affect the upcoming team battle.
Dai Mubai, who had witnessed everything from the stage, didn't feel good either. Roman's final attack had forced him to inhale a large amount of poison, and now his face had turned a sickly shade of purple.
"Damn woman."
"Hey, referee, hurry up and get the last person from their team on the stage. I suspect they are intentionally stalling for time."
The referee paused for a moment before urgently urging Yu Tianheng to enter the stage.
"Please, Tiandou Royal Academy, send out your next contestant, or we will declare you forfeited."
Dai Mubai hoped to defeat Yu Tianheng before the poison took full effect, or at least wear him down a bit. This was the strategy that Big Wet had devised.
Yu Tianheng walked onto the stage with a grim expression. It was clear he had a deep connection with Roman.
"Yu Tianheng, martial soul Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, 43rd-level Strength Attack Soul Master."
Dai Mubai didn't bother with introductions. Time wasn't on his side, and while his White Tiger Vajra Transformation was still active, he charged toward Yu Tianheng.
"White Tiger Shield, White Tiger Lightwave!"
"Third Soul Skill: Thunder God's Wrath!"
Yu Tianheng quickly activated his own soul skill as Dai Mubai charged. Like Yu Tianxin, his third soul skill boosted his lightning power and soul power by 100%.
"First Soul Skill: Blue Lightning Dragon Claw."
With his martial soul activated, Yu Tianheng's dragon-like arms glowed blue and easily broke through Dai Mubai's White Tiger Lightwave.
He then collided with Dai Mubai's fist, the two locked in a pure contest of strength.
The struggle continued for several seconds until, filled with hate, Yu Tianheng unleashed his second soul skill up close.
"Thunderbolt."
A blue energy ball gathered in front of Yu Tianheng's chest and shot toward Dai Mubai, shattering the White Tiger Shield and knocking Dai Mubai back for several seconds before he stabilized himself.
Dai Mubai's face had turned completely purple from the poison, and he no longer had any thoughts of winning.
"I can't drag this out anymore. I need to consume whatever I can."
With that thought, Dai Mubai leaped into the air again, and his fourth purple soul ring glowed brightly.
"Fourth Soul Skill: White Tiger Meteor Shower."
"Fourth Soul Skill: Blue Lightning Divine Dragon Charge!"
Countless white meteors surged toward Yu Tianheng's oncoming blue dragon.
The blue dragon couldn't block all the meteors but successfully hit Dai Mubai, sending him flying off the stage. Yu Tianheng raised his crossed arms to block the remaining meteors.
"Yu Tianheng wins, please send Shrek Academy's next contestant to battle."
Tang San walked toward the stage slowly after helping Dai Mubai with a detoxifying pill and stabilizing his poison.
"It's up to you now, Tang San!"
"Don't worry!"
Tang San nodded at Dai Mubai, signaling that he would win this match.
Yu Tianheng eyed Tang San with some seriousness. Despite Tang San's soul ring configuration being subpar, his methods were truly devious, and his soul power, reaching 46th level, was no joke. He would need to proceed carefully.
As the referee announced the match's start, Yu Tianheng launched the first attack, once again using Thunder Dragon Claw toward Tang San.
Tang San's eyes turned a deep purple, and without hesitation, he activated Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, dodging to the side.
