Chapter 49: Won't it be a chaotic massacre?
Kong Ling's idea was actually very simple: since her breakthrough to the second ring couldn't shock them, she would shock them with her strength.
Xu Tianyi and Xu Wei are both geniuses and very strong.
Previously, Kong Ling might not have been a match for them if she hadn't revealed her trump cards, since her first soul skill didn't offer much room for maneuver.
But now the situation is indeed different. With her second soul skill, she is completely different from before.
When two soul skills are combined, there are many more possible strategies.
After obtaining her second spirit ring, Kong Xuan spent a lot of time practicing with her, and now she has basically mastered her second spirit skill.
Xu Tianyi and Xu Wei exchanged a glance, surprised that Kong Ling would make such a request.
Kong Xuan then said, "Ling'er's second soul skill is very strong. Even if the two of you join forces, you might not be her match!"
Kong Xuan's words did indeed make the two of them take it seriously.
However, this also aroused their strong curiosity about Kong Ling's second soul skill.
"Alright! Let's have a battle of spirits!"
Xu Wei clapped his hands and looked at Xu Tianyi, who nodded in agreement.
"I'll be the referee, you can all make your moves as you please."
As Kong Xuan spoke, he retreated into the distance.
Previously, Kong Xuan had been the referee for all four of them during their practice sessions at the Soul Arena.
With his keen eyesight, he could naturally and accurately judge who would be in danger.
Moreover, the first soul skill of the Sky-Piercing Spear can be used to strike across space, blocking attacks in critical moments to prevent injury.
This result was proven through numerous battles and trials, and the three of them had complete faith in and confidence in Kong Xuan as the referee.
Soon, both sides had already taken their positions.
Xu Tianyi and Xu Wei did not study tactics in advance, but they communicated with their eyes before the battle began.
Compared to Xu Tianyi's expressionless face, Xu Wei's facial expressions were noticeably more varied.
However, looking at his winking and gesturing, Xu Tianyi actually figured out what he meant, though he wasn't sure if his interpretation was correct.
"start!"
With Kong Xuan's command to begin, both sides instantly activated their martial spirits.
A small, orange-red sun rose above Kong Ling's head. Even from dozens of meters away, Xu Wei and Xu Tianyi could feel that the temperature was much higher than when they were in the first ring.
Looking at Kong Ling's spirit rings, two spirit rings, one yellow and one purple, rose from beneath his feet. The second spirit ring was indeed a thousand-year-old purple.
Xu Tianyi stared at the purple soul ring, his gaze becoming even more resolute.
The Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon Martial Soul possessed him, and purple-gold dragon scales covered his right arm.
Xu Wei was surrounded by lightning, holding a short blade in his right hand, and calmly observing Kong Ling's situation.
As the battle began, both men were extremely serious, as the thousand-year-old soul skill truly made them feel threatened.
The two exchanged another glance, then simultaneously sped off towards Kong Ling's location.
Kong Ling stood still, without making any movement.
She watched the two men rushing towards her and thought to herself, "You underestimated me!"
Kong Ling's second soul ring lit up immediately, and the purple light of the thousand-year soul skill was reflected in the eyes of Xu Wei and Xu Tianyi.
Both of them had a bad feeling at the same time. Just as they were about to activate their soul skills, they suddenly felt a wave of heat coming from all directions.
A golden-red beam of light rose before their eyes, and in an instant they found themselves trapped in a cage.
The entire cage seemed to be made of light and fire, like flowing magma, radiating heat that was unbearable for ordinary people.
This is Kong Ling's second soul skill, Blazing Sun Cage!
Instant cast + area-of-effect attack + high damage – it truly deserves to be one of the most suitable soul skills for a Sun Martial Soul, inherited from the royal family.
Trapped in the scorching sun cage, Xu Tianyi and Xu Wei felt as if their skin had been baked dry, and the moisture in their bodies was evaporating rapidly.
Xu Wei's expression changed drastically. This type of attack was the most effective counter to his first soul skill. Lacking offensive power, he couldn't even escape violently and could only "wait for his death".
Xu Tianyi stretched out his right dragon claw and carefully touched the blazing sun cage. Even though it was covered with dragon scales, he could still feel the scorching heat inside.
But this test also made Xu Tianyi realize that dragon scales could serve a protective function, which gave him hope of escaping.
However, just as Xu Tianyi raised his hand, about to use his sharp dragon claws to cut through the blazing sun cage, Kong Ling's second attack came!
Although the Soul Skill "Radiant Cage" is powerful, it can only be maintained for eight seconds.
Kong Ling naturally wouldn't waste this hard-won opportunity to attack. His first spirit ring shone brightly, and a beam of solar divine light shot out from the small sun above his head, its target being Xu Tianyi.
Kong Xuan, acting as the referee, intervened at this moment. His understanding of Kong Soul Skills was no less than that of Kong Ling.
Knowing that Xu Tianyi absolutely could not withstand the next attack, he directly drew his spear. Under the effect of his first soul skill, the Sky-Piercing Spear pierced through space and dispersed the Sun God's Light.
"Alright, this battle of spirits is over!"
After Kong Ling removed the blazing sun cage, Xu Tianyi and Xu Wei, whose clothes were already soaked with sweat, instantly felt a cool sensation and began to frantically gulp in the air.
Xu Tianyi was a little better off after removing his martial soul, since beast soul masters have a boost to their bodies.
Xu Wei was lying on the ground in the Soul Arena, looking like he was half-dead.
Kong Ling, the one who started all of this, skipped over to the two of them and asked with a smile, "How's my soul skill?"
"Very strong!"
Xu Tianyi, who is usually a man of few words, gave a fair assessment, with a hint of apprehension in his eyes.
He felt that even if his attack had landed, it probably wouldn't have been able to tear apart the cage that was trapping him.
Xu Wei, still lying on the ground, showed no intention of getting up. He simply shifted his position and glanced at Kong Ling, crying out in pain, "Sister Ling, you're too cruel!"
"I was almost roasted to a crisp just now!"
Kong Ling snorted: "Now you know how powerful I am!"
Kong Xuan also walked over and looked at Xu Wei lying on the ground, saying, "I told you before that we can't rely too much on your lightning flash. Now you know what it feels like to be restrained."
"I understand, I understand perfectly!"
Xu Wei said in a voice that was about to cry, "Sister Ling is completely my nemesis now. Once I'm trapped in this cage, I can't use any of my tricks."
Kong Ling proudly said, "Although my second soul skill, Fiery Sun Cage, can only exist for eight seconds, breaking it is not an easy task. And those eight seconds are enough to do a lot of things!"
Xu Wei and Xu Tianyi were only trapped for about four seconds at most. If another four seconds passed, even if Kong Ling did nothing, the heat of the Fiery Sun Prison alone would be enough to make the two lose some of their fighting ability.
Upon hearing the eight-second time limit, Xu Wei shuddered and exclaimed, "As expected of a thousand-year-old soul skill! Sister Ling, please don't use this soul skill on me again!"
"Of course! We're teammates, and from now on, this soul skill will only trap our opponents!"
Kong Ling's small hand clenched in the air, looking confident of victory.
Upon hearing this, Xu Wei instantly regained his strength and sat up from the ground.
"With Sister Ling having such a crowd control soul skill, won't our group be able to rampage and kill everything in sight?!"
Kong Ling said confidently, "That's for sure!"
