Douluo Continent: This Soul Master is Too Bizarre and Unpredictable

After defeating Huo Yu, Huo Chui, and Huo Jun in succession, the Shrek team only had Tang San and Dai Mubai, who had not yet played, and Xiao Wu, who was already on the field.

On the other hand, the Blazing Fire team still has four members who haven't played yet, and the rest are all tougher opponents.

Their disadvantage was very obvious. Whether it was Tang San and Dai Mubai who had not yet entered the arena, or Xiao Wu who was already on the field, their expressions were all extremely solemn.

Subsequently, at the referee's signal, the Blazing Fire team sent out their fourth player.

"Fire Leopard, possess me!"

With a low shout, Huo Lie's body flashed with crimson light, and his beast spirit, the Fire Leopard, took over. His muscles swelled, his hands transformed into leopard claws, and four spirit rings, yellow and purple, bloomed.

"The match begins!"

At the referee's signal, the battle resumed.

"Third Soul Skill, Seven Star Flame Burst."

At the very start, Huo Lie, intending to finish the battle quickly, activated his third soul skill in an attempt to gain the upper hand.

Huo Lie was fast, but Xiao Wu was even faster.

"The second soul skill, charm!"

At the same moment Huo Lie activated his third soul skill of the millennium, Xiao Wu's second soul ring lit up, a pink light flashed in her eyes, and invisible spiritual power surged out, instantly descending into Huo Lie's sea of ​​consciousness.

Both being four-ring Soul Masters, one uses a thousand-year-old Soul Skill while the other uses a hundred-year-old Soul Skill, so naturally Xiao Wu's Soul Skill release speed is faster.

After all, for attack-type soul skills, the older the age, the more difficult it is to cast instantly, and the longer the release time becomes.

For example, the Ninth Strong Attack Soul Skill is practically nonexistent among Title Douluos who can instantly unleash it; all of them have a pre-cast animation that is either long or short.

The mental force invaded Huo Lie's sea of ​​consciousness, and in an instant, Huo Lie's body froze, his face turned pale, and he stood there dumbfounded.

The soul skill was forcibly interrupted during its activation, and Huo Lie suffered a slight backlash.

However, for Huo Lie at the moment, suffering some backlash is nothing. What is more fatal is that he was restricted by Xiao Wu's mental control soul skill in a one-on-one battle.

In terms of soul power level, Xiao Wu and Huo Lie are the same, both being level 42 Soul Masters.

However, there is no doubt that in terms of mental strength, even without a specific method of cultivating mental strength, Xiao Wu, who is a 100,000-year-old Soft Bone Rabbit in human form, is still stronger than Huo Lie, whose martial soul is a Fire Leopard.

In a contest of mental strength, where the strong oppress the weak, Huo Lie is naturally no match.

"Whoosh—"

Taking advantage of the situation, she landed a successful blow, and with a light step, Xiao Wu darted away.

The competition field, with a diameter of 100 meters, is not very large. The two were not standing at the edge of the field, and were only 40 or 50 meters apart. However, the speed of a four-ring Soul Master is not slow. Before Huo Lie could break free from the control of the Charm Soul Skill, Xiao Wu, who had darted out at lightning speed, arrived in front of Huo Lie.

"First Soul Skill, Waist Bow!"

With a sharp shout, Xiao Wu, who had activated an amplified soul skill, kicked out with her right leg, striking Huo Lie's waist. She then unleashed the Rogue Rabbit's signature move: the Eight-Stage Throw, showcasing to the many spectators what soft yet adorable violent aesthetics truly meant.

When Huo Lie broke free from the control of the bewitching soul skill, he felt himself in mid-air, with a whistling sound echoing in his ears, and at the same time, it felt as if something was wrapped around his neck.

The next moment, the spectators heard a loud "boom" and saw Huo Lie, like a broken sack, being slammed onto the competition field by Xiao Wu's legs around his neck, kicking up a cloud of dust.

The sudden fall caused Huo Lie, who had just broken free from the control of the charm soul skill, to feel dizzy and see stars. His bones felt like they were about to fall apart, and he temporarily lost the ability to resist.

Relentlessly pursuing and attacking an opponent who has lost the ability to resist is Xiao Wu's specialty.

"Boom boom boom—"

After slamming Huo Lie seven times in a row, on the eighth time, Xiao Wu stopped hooking Huo Lie and slamming him onto the field. Instead, she used the power of her legs to twist and fling Huo Lie away from the white circle.

According to the competition rules, once a contestant touches the ground outside the white circle, they are eliminated.

With a loud "boom," Huo Lie crashed heavily outside the white circle. After a full ten seconds, he shook his head and shakily got up.

"Please send out your fifth player, Blazing Fire Team!"

Seeing that Xiao Wu had decisively eliminated Huo Lie, the referee announced loudly.

Having defeated another opponent, Xiao Wu temporarily set aside her fear of the Blazing Fire Team and proudly raised her head.

There was a reason why Shrek didn't surrender when facing the powerful Blazing Fire team.

Flander, Liu Erlong, and the others could see that apart from the two substitutes at the third ring level and Mu Yang, Huo Wu, and Huo Wushuang, the remaining five members of the Blazing Fire Team, although their soul power levels had advanced to the fourth ring, were only at the initial stage.

As newcomers to the fourth-ring Soul Master class, with similar Soul Power levels, none of the five Fire Hammer members (non-spiritual type) could withstand Xiao Wu's Enchanting Soul Skill.

Once she gets the upper hand, Xiao Wu immediately closes in and throws her opponent off the field with an eight-stage throw, easily securing victory.

It can be said that as long as this tactic is used well, Xiao Wu can eliminate at least two or three opponents at the fourth ring level. In this way, even if the Shrek team loses, it will not be a bad defeat, and they may even achieve a good kill ratio.

Clearly, this tactic was successful. By using only her first and second soul skills, plus a self-created soul skill, Xiao Wu eliminated Huo Lie, whose level was no lower than hers, with relatively little soul power consumption.

"Tsk~, how pitiful!"

Watching Huo Lie struggle to get up, Mu Yang couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

However, even though Huo Lie fell quite badly and had bruises all over his face, he wasn't seriously injured.

After all, the physique of a Soul Master is incomparable to that of an ordinary person, and the higher the Soul Power level, the stronger the physique. Not to mention that as a Beast Soul Master, when the Martial Soul is attached to the body, the ability to withstand attacks is stronger than most Weapon Soul Masters of the same level.

Similarly, the lack of a decisive, one-hit kill technique is one of Xiao Wu's biggest weaknesses.

She's fine for fighting in spirit battles, but when it comes to a battle where life and death are at stake, Xiao Wu, as a 100,000-year-old transformed spirit beast, is clearly weaker than the best of her class.

Of course, in terms of survival ability, Hu and Xiao Wu, who possess the two "divine skills" of teleportation and invincible golden body, are also beings that many genius soul masters can only dream of.

Immediately afterwards, Fire Cloud, the fifth member of the Blazing Fire team, took to the field.

Soon, Xiao Wu applied the same tactic to Huo Yun.

As an agility-based flying soul master, Huo Yun, lacking defensive soul skills, was no different from Huo Lie, and neither could withstand Xiao Wu's three-pronged attack.

After all, in a battle of spirits where the situation changes in the blink of an eye and the arena is limited, a mere few seconds of distraction or dazedness can be the key to victory or defeat. (End of Chapter)
