Chapter 219: Martial Soul Fusion Technique!
A flash of icy blue light swept over the arena, and a bone deep chill surged through Yu Tianlin's body.
In the next instant, he was sealed in ice.
Not only him, even Lei Tian and the other 3, who had just been repelled by the Ice Resistance Ring and were rushing over to support Yu Tianlin, were also frozen in place, unable to get close.
This was Shui Bing'er's 1st Spirit Skill, Ice Seal.
The name was plain, but the effect was anything but. It could be released instantly, and it could lock down multiple targets at once. Among control type Spirit Skills, it was absolutely top tier.
Even so, it was still only a 100 year Spirit Skill, and its control strength was limited. With Yu Tianlin's physical strength, he shattered the ice almost the moment it formed.
But the second he broke free and prepared to strike again, Shui Bing'er smiled faintly, raised her hand, and sealed him again.
This…
Yu Tianlin went speechless.
Ice Seal could not trap him for long, and he could break out instantly, yet it interrupted his movements every single time. That alone was enough to be troublesome.
His dragon claw attack had been interrupted twice, while the enemy's offense never stopped.
Five people, including 1 Spirit Ancestor, unleashed their Spirit Skills on him at the same time. Caught off guard, Yu Tianlin could only rely on the dragon scales of his transformed body to block the barrage. Even then, he still took a minor injury.
It was the first time he had been hurt in this entire competition.
Bing'er, you actually let your teammates hit me…
Yu Tianlin looked at Shui Bing'er in the distance. There was a faint apology in her eyes. For a moment, he didn't know what to say.
Then his gaze flicked toward his own side.
And Lei Tian, why are you still not here? What are you doing?
He clenched his teeth.
Fine. I can't count on my teammates right now. I'll rely on myself.
Once he made that decision, Yu Tianlin roared and lit up his 4th Spirit Ring.
"Retreat, now!" Shui Bing'er's clear voice rang out at the same time, ordering her teammates to pull back immediately.
Even that didn't feel safe enough to her. She raised her hand again, and her 2nd Spirit Ring lit up.
The deep black Spirit Ring on Yu Tianlin's body flared. In an instant, the lightning surging around him was dyed the same black, and its destructive power rose sharply before erupting outward.
The 5 Skywater Academy members closest to him were the first to be struck by the lightning wave.
But in the next moment, 5 ice rings formed around them. Crystal blue armor spread over their bodies like plates, layer by layer.
Shui Bing'er's 2nd Spirit Skill, Ice Ring Armor.
It greatly increased the target's defense.
Under the protection of Ice Ring Armor, the 5 Skywater Academy members endured the impact of Yu Tianlin's lightning burst and resisted the worst of the onslaught, allowing them to retreat quickly.
Yu Tianlin's 4th Spirit Skill was ultimately a body enhancement skill. The lightning burst that erupted at the moment it activated was not its true killing power. That was why Skywater Academy could withdraw safely.
But that didn't matter.
Once Thunderous Fury was active, Yu Tianlin's aura climbed violently. Lightning swirled around him like a storm. Even if Shui Bing'er used Ice Seal again, it would shatter instantly and could no longer interrupt him.
"He really used it." Shui Bing'er watched calmly, not surprised at all.
From the moment the battle began, her goal had been to force Yu Tianlin to use this move.
A powerful, body enhancing, 10,000 year Spirit Skill like Thunderous Fury consumed a terrifying amount of Spirit Power every second it remained active.
Tianlin, how long can you keep it up?
Lightning attribute Spirit Masters already burned through Spirit Power faster than normal. Using high intensity Spirit Skills only made it worse. Yu Tianlin was only level 49. No matter how strong he was, his Spirit Power reserves were still limited.
Shui Bing'er saw his weakness clearly.
Behind that world destroying power was a consumption rate that could not be sustained forever.
If she couldn't defeat him by brute force, then she would drag the fight out until he ran dry, and victory would still belong to Skywater Academy.
"Yue'er, come." Shui Bing'er made her decision instantly and called to her younger sister.
"Okay, Sister." Shui Yue'er understood immediately. She rushed behind Shui Bing'er and placed her hand against her back.
Then a strange scene unfolded.
A light blue glow rose from Shui Yue'er's body and poured into Shui Bing'er like a stream. She was transferring Spirit Power to her.
This kind of transfer was rare, but not impossible. The Shrek Seven Devils were able to circulate completely different Spirit Power between each other. As sisters, Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er had extremely similar attributes, so they could do it even more naturally.
Shui Bing'er had already used many Spirit Skills, including a thousand year Spirit Skill, and her consumption was heavy. If she wanted to use that move next, she needed Spirit Power replenishment.
The 5 Skywater Academy members pulled back.
Shui Yue'er replenished Shui Bing'er's Spirit Power.
The remaining 4 members immediately shifted into a defensive stance.
Only then did Lei Tian and his group of 4 finally catch up from Thunder Academy's side.
"Captain, we…" Lei Tian's face was burning with shame. He clearly felt guilty that he couldn't help while Yu Tianlin was being surrounded. He opened his mouth to explain, but Yu Tianlin cut him off.
"No need." Yu Tianlin waved his hand. "Win first. I'm already activating Thunderous Fury, we can't waste time."
"Let's go!"
Yu Tianlin and his teammates were about to charge again, but at that moment, Shui Bing'er finally moved.
After receiving Spirit Power from her younger sister, she retreated swiftly and sprinted toward Xue Wu.
Her long light blue hair intertwined with Xue Wu's black hair.
Then, in the next instant, their bodies vanished together.
A blue and white beam of light shot straight up into the dark clouds above the arena.
"It's finally here," Yu Tianlin murmured, his eyes brightening. "The Martial Soul Fusion Technique."
Ever since Xue Wu began dancing to pray for rain, Yu Tianlin had known this was coming. Now that he was seeing it with his own eyes, he wasn't surprised at all.
He raised a hand and motioned to Lei Tian and the others.
"All of you step back and conserve your strength. Leave the Martial Soul Fusion Technique to me."
Lei Tian and the others retreated without hesitation. On the other side, Skywater Academy's remaining members also pulled back.
They all understood.
From this moment on, the outcome no longer depended on the rest of the teams.
It depended only on Yu Tianlin, Shui Bing'er, and Xue Wu.
If Yu Tianlin could withstand the Martial Soul Fusion Technique, Thunder Academy would win.
If he couldn't, the power of the fusion technique would sweep across the entire arena and blast everyone from Thunder Academy off the stage.
The result was about to be decided.
