Douluo Continent: This Soul Master is Too Bizarre and Unpredictable

Chapter 166 Fire Dance: I'm Going to Take on Seven! (Part 1)

A flash of light appeared, and golden-red rings of flame instantly engulfed the entire arena.

When the ring of flames swept past Mu Yang and his group of six behind them, it did not generate any repulsive force, as if it were just an illusory scene effect.

But Feng Xiaotian and the others from the Kamikaze team were different. The moment the ring of flames approached them, a powerful repulsive force immediately acted on them, and every single one of them was thrown away by this powerful repulsive force.

The arena was not very large to begin with, and although the Kamikaze team members were not at the edge of the arena, they were not in the center either. Under the influence of repulsive force, all seven of them were sent flying backwards out of the arena.

According to the rules of the Soul Master Competition, once a contestant is knocked out of the arena and touches the ground, they are eliminated.

Just as he was about to be ejected from the arena and crash to the ground, at the critical moment, Feng Xiaotian's third soul ring lit up, and he activated his third soul skill: Gale Wings. A pair of huge cyan wings unfolded from his back, and then the wings flapped repeatedly, offsetting the inertia, adjusting his body, and flying back into the air above the arena.

However, Feng Xiaotian managed to escape elimination by using his flying soul skill, but not all the other members of the Divine Wind Team had his ability.

Apart from one flying-type Soul Master with the Azure Feather Eagle Martial Soul, five members of the Divine Wind Team crashed onto the ground outside the arena, eliminated by Huo Wu's opening Fire Resistance Ring.

Unlike the Fire Dance of the same period in the original work, the Phoenix Fire Shadow Martial Soul, which is of higher quality than the Naruto Martial Soul, has more than 5,000 years of Soul Skill age and a Soul Power that is more than one level higher, making the Fire Resistance Ring Soul Skill unparalleled in the arena.

If there is no time to dodge, and if there is no means of flight, being hit is almost equivalent to being eliminated.

There's nothing we can do; the arena for the Soul Master Tournament is just too small.

Even if Huo Wu stands at the edge of the arena and releases the Fire Resistance Ring, her opponent on the other edge of the arena is still within the range of the Soul Skill's effect.

Seeing that his five teammates were eliminated by the goddess right at the start of the game, and after making a deal with Mu Yang to win seven against one, Feng Xiaotian, who thought he had victory in his grasp, was completely dismayed.

It was at this moment that Feng Xiaotian understood why Huo Wu's soul skills were primarily offensive, yet she was a control-type soul master.

There's nothing else to it, it's just because of the third soul skill, the Fire Resistance Ring.

In a life-or-death battle, or a battle of spirits without a restricted area, the effect of resisting the fire ring is far less terrifying; at most, it can only be considered a powerful control move with decent effect.

In arena matches with a limited and very small playing area, the effect of this soul skill will be magnified many times over.

At this moment, Huo Wu beckoned to Feng Xiaotian, who was flying in mid-air.

The opponent is Kamikaze Academy, which is either number one or number two among the Elemental Academy?

Miss Fire Dance refuses to believe this nonsense!

Moreover, back when the various elemental academies came to Blazing Fire for a meeting because of the secret of whale glue, Feng Xiaotian had launched a sweeping attack on Blazing Fire Academy, and Huo Wu, who is not very petty, has always remembered it! In addition, the plan requires it, so she prepared to take on the Divine Wind Team by herself.

Of course, this wasn't Huo Wu trying to embarrass Shenfeng Academy, but rather to demonstrate the strength of the younger generation at Chihuo Academy.

This will make the higher-ups of Shenfeng Academy realize that Chihuo Academy is not only powerful now, but also has two Title Douluo in charge. In the future, as the younger generation grows up, Chihuo Academy will become even stronger, laying the groundwork for the plan to merge and reorganize the three elemental academies of Chihuo, Tianshui and Shenfeng to establish a new elemental academy.

Similarly, Mu Yang had set a trap for Feng Xiaotianxia precisely to achieve this goal more smoothly.

Because Feng Xiaotian is not only the captain of this year's Shenfeng team, but also a disciple of Feng Zhen, the dean of Shenfeng Academy, and a great genius whom the higher-ups of Shenfeng Academy are grooming for the next dean.

With Feng Xiaotian's support, the resistance of the Shenfeng Academy's higher-ups will surely be reduced significantly.

This is like the Crown Prince himself having defected to the enemy; how much will the assembled officials still have the will to defend against the enemy?

At this moment, Feng Xiaotian's expression was more solemn than ever before.

With seven against one, and holding such a huge advantage, Huo Wu only needed to make one move to almost completely wipe out his advantage, which severely damaged Feng Xiaotian's confidence in defeating Huo Wu.

Although it was still a two-on-one situation and his advantage had not completely disappeared, Feng Xiaotian knew that with only one teammate who had just entered the fourth ring level to assist him, his chances of winning were not high, or even nonexistent.

After all, he was well aware of Huo Wu's strength, and the two had fought before, with him not only failing to win but also suffering a complete defeat.

With her powerful martial soul, exaggerated soul ring configuration, and mysterious self-created soul skills, Huo Wu's soul power level was even several levels higher than his own. Apart from not being able to fly, Huo Wu could be said to have completely overwhelmed him. In this case, how could he possibly have any chance of winning?

"First Soul Skill: Wind Blade Formation"

However, despite his thoughts, Feng Xiaotian had no intention of giving up. His first spirit ring shone brightly, and with a wave of his wolf claws, ten semi-circular cyan wind blades shot out towards Huo Wu on the arena below.

No matter how strong Huo Wu is, he must muster the courage to challenge her, recognize the gap between himself and Huo Wu, and work harder to cultivate in the future. This is Feng Xiaotian's Soul-licking Path!

Conversely, if you admit defeat directly, you'll definitely be looked down upon by the goddess, right?

"Phoenix Fire Mirror!"

Seeing the wind blade approaching, Huo Wu's body shone with golden-red light, and a six-foot-long crimson-gold round mirror materialized, which she then used to meet the incoming wind blade.

The fire-attribute variant of the "Extreme Flame Secret Technique," which shares the same origin as the "Ice Flame Secret Technique," is the "Phoenix Fire Secret Technique." Miss Huo Wu also knows it, though she just doesn't wield it as smoothly as Mu Yang.

"Bang bang bang—"

Under Huo Wu's mental control, all ten cyan wind blades were blocked by the Extreme Flame Mirror. Feng Xiaotian's first soul skill only managed to shatter one of the six Phoenix Flame Mirrors.

The next second, with the surge of soul power, Huo Wu once again condensed a crimson-gold round mirror, completing the Phoenix Fire Mirror to its optimal six-sided state.

At the same time, Feng Xiaotian's teammates didn't just stand by and watch. Their fourth spirit rings shone brightly, and a pair of azure eagle wings flapped behind them. Dense azure eagle feathers formed from wind-type spirit power fell like raindrops towards Huo Wu.

Seeing this, Huo Wu's expression hardened. She recalled the Phoenix Fire Mirror that had blocked the wind blades, and then the six-foot-long crimson-gold round mirrors rapidly enlarged, merging into three large mirrors, each three feet long, in a triangular cone shape, protecting herself and thus blocking the dense soul power eagle feathers falling from the sky.
