In his state of exhilaration, Dai Mubai was like a tiger charging down a mountain. Although his Soul Power was only at Level 40, he could now unleash combat power equivalent to Level 50!
Coupled with the three Divine Beast Soul—the White Tiger, the Dragon, and the Phoenix—merging into a trinity, the resulting new Divine Beast Soul was incredibly powerful! It could truly be called the king of Beast Souls!
Moreover, the Dragon-Phoenix Soul was inherently immune to Water and Fire-attribute attacks. Showing no apparent weaknesses, it instantly sent the two female students from Tian Shui Academy flying off the arena!
If Shui Bing'er hadn't stepped in front of Ye Lingling just in time, Ye Lingling would likely have been eliminated by now!
Currently, among the Four Elements Academies, only Yu Tianxin from Thunder Academy can barely hold her own against Dai Mubai—and even then, she's only able to fend him off to some extent by relying on her Lightning attribute advantage. Without the boost from her Lightning attribute, Yu Tianxin likely wouldn't even last a single move!
Although Feng Xiaotian and Huo Wu are both Soul King-level experts, their soul power far surpasses Dai Mubai's.
However, Feng Xiaotian's Swiftwind Demon Wolf Soul is completely suppressed by Dai Mubai's Three Divine Beasts Soul, rendering it utterly ineffective in battle!
Meanwhile, Huo Wu's fire-attribute attacks have no effect on Dai Mubai, so even if they were to attack him, it would be a waste of their soul power!
Not to mention that they also had to deal with Ma Hongjun, Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuqing at the moment—the Four Elements Academy was already in complete chaos!
Moreover, Oscar and Rosen hadn't even entered the fray yet! If they did, the Four Elements Academy would likely be wiped out in an instant!
"Sister Bing'er! Don't worry about me! I'll take care of myself! You go fight them!"
Ye Lingling knew her soul power was nearly depleted; staying wouldn't do any good. It would be better to let Shui Bing'er help her teammates fight—that way, they might still have a sliver of a chance to win!
Shui Bing'er could also tell that Ye Lingling was in poor condition. After all, Ye Lingling had already expended more than half of her soul power earlier to restore Feng Xiaotian and Huo Wu to peak condition!
With the two younger students from Tian Shui Academy and Yu Tianxin already injured, Ye Lingling had expended a great deal of soul power. If anyone else were to fall in battle, she would likely be unable to heal them!
So, after weighing the pros and cons, Shui Bing'er stopped protecting Ye Lingling and swiftly joined the fierce battle!
Taking advantage of the moment when Shui Bing'er was attacking Ma Hongjun, Xiao Wu instantly knocked Ye Lingling flying. With that, the Four Elements Academy lost another member, leaving only four combat-ready fighters!
Moreover, among these four, Yu Tianxin couldn't hold out much longer, as his opponent, Dai Mubai, was simply too powerful—both in defense and offense, he was several levels above Yu Tianxin!
As for Feng Xiaotian, he simply couldn't keep up with Xiao Wu's speed, and Huo Wu's fire-attribute attacks not only had no effect on Zhu Zhuqing but were actually swallowed up by her dark-attribute soul power!
As a result, the elite fighters assembled by the Four Elements Academy were finding themselves increasingly on the defensive and growing more and more exhausted as the battle dragged on!
Although Shui Bing'er held a slight advantage over Ma Hongjun, this was partly because Ma Hongjun didn't want to hurt such a beauty, and partly because fire-elemental power is naturally countered by ice-elemental power.
However, that guy Tang San was incredibly sleazy—he specialized in sneaking up from behind to launch ambushes. The Blue Silver Grass would silently bind his enemies, and since he specifically targeted several girls, it was hard not to suspect he had some kind of perverted inclination!
"Tang San! Can you please not tie it so tight? Look, I can't stop this nosebleed at all! Are you trying to make me bleed to death? Which side are you really on?"
Ma Hongjun didn't want to complain at first—after all, who wouldn't want to watch such a beautiful scene!
But his constitution just couldn't take it; he was constantly getting nosebleeds. If he didn't stop Tang San's sneaky ambushes, he'd probably end up completely drained of both qi and blood!
"Fatso, I'm just trying to help you!" Tang San played the innocent card—after all, his Blue Silver Grass had no other offensive capabilities besides restraining enemies!
"Thanks a lot! Right now, I just want to have a quiet one-on-one duel with Miss Shui Bing'er. You'd better go help someone else!"
After much persuasion, Ma Hongjun finally managed to shoo Tang San—that third wheel—away!
Although Tang San was annoyed, everyone from the Four Elements Academy seemed to have ignored his existence—no one took him seriously as an opponent at all!
In the end, Tang San could only sit bored next to Oscar, munching on a sausage.
"Little Oscar, am I really that annoying?" Tang San began to wonder if there was truly something wrong with him. Why didn't anyone at the academy like him?
Oscar glanced at Tang San, then said with a straight face, "Little San, you're not actually that annoying. It's just that you're too extreme! You always want to steal the spotlight in everything! You're way too showy! If you could fix those flaws, I bet people wouldn't find you so annoying!"
Tang San's face darkened the moment he heard this, but he immediately told himself to stay in control! He couldn't let his feelings show on his face! He had to be low-key and act cool, just like Rosen! That way, he probably wouldn't be so annoying, right?
"Xiao San, I'm just being straightforward. You're not mad at me, are you?" Oscar asked with a smile when he saw the strange look on Tang San's face.
"Not at all! We're good brothers! How could I possibly be mad at you!"
Tang San was gritting his teeth as he smiled—it was about as ugly a smile as you could imagine!
Just then, Dai Mubai was the first to wrap up his fight; Yu Tianxin had been knocked unconscious by a single slap from Dai Mubai!
However, Dai Mubai was still in a state of euphoria and immediately pounced on Feng Xiaotian, who was standing nearby!
Feng Xiaotian's Swift Wind Demon Wolf Soul was so overwhelmed by Dai Mubai's Three Divine Beasts Soul that he couldn't even catch his breath; his pride and joy—his speed—had slowed to a snail's pace, and he was being completely pinned to the ground and dragged around by Dai Mubai!
The spectators on the sidelines were completely stunned; they simply couldn't imagine a Soul Master pinning a Soul King to the ground and running him ragged!
Davis, sitting in the stands, broke out in a cold sweat. If Dai Mubai had fought him in this state back then, he would have been killed on the spot!
Zhu Zhuyun, standing nearby, felt the same way. She never could have imagined that her younger sister, Zhu Zhuqing, had been hiding such formidable strength!
Ultimately, it was Oscar's sausage-based support abilities that made the difference. If Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing hadn't chosen to duel Davis and Zhu Zhuyun one-on-one back then, but had opted for a team fight instead, those two might very well have been killed!
As the battle drew to a close, Zhu Zhuqing absorbed a massive amount of fire-attribute soul power from Huo Wu. Her Underworld Spirit Cat soul spirit had transformed into a colossal beast, its body ablaze with black flames. The powerful dark cutting force left Huo Wu severely injured and unconscious!
Ma Hongjun had originally intended to keep fighting Shui Bing'er a little longer, but he was taken out in a single move by Xiao Wu, who had charged in!
At that point, the Four Elements Academy team—composed of elite fighters from the four major academies—had been completely wiped out, while Shrek Academy emerged unscathed. An exhilarated Dai Mubai kept roaring defiantly at the sky, terrifying the referees on the field!
Before the match, no one had given Shrek Academy a chance—after all, the Four Elements Academy's assembled elite were simply too powerful!
Yet the final outcome was a complete surprise. Rosen, who was supposed to be the main force, barely lifted a finger, while his two teammates merely watched the spectacle from the sidelines. With just four people, they utterly routed the Four Elements Academy—the team touted as the strongest in the tournament!
