Douluo Continent, I, Huo Yuhao, defy fate with my spiritual eyes.

Ma Xiaotao sprouted wings on her back, gliding through the air and leaving a fiery red trail before diagonally inserting herself into the center of the Sun and Moon formation.

The phoenix phantom behind him shone brightly, and a layer of golden flames flowed down. The phoenix phantom was bathed in the flames, its wings flapping as if about to take flight, and sparks exploded across the sky.

Xiao Hongchen naturally wouldn't let Ma Xiaotao run rampant. He covered his body with a layer of golden membrane, and a small bulge appeared on his back, with a golden third leg growing from his buttocks.

"A three-legged toad! Croak!"

Upon seeing this, Ma Xiaotao was greatly shocked.

"What a disgusting toad!"

Humiliated, Xiao Hongchen's face turned ugly, and his soul rings, yellow, purple, and black, lit up.

"Die! First Soul Skill: Metal Control! Third Soul Skill: Metal Formation!"

He manipulated the metallic elements in the air, making them viscous and transforming them into cannon barrels, which, under his deliberate manipulation, had already developed many patterns.

"My God, is this the Sun Moon Empire's trump card?"

The host, a fanatic about soul tools, was shocked. His mouth was agape, so wide you could see his throat. He swallowed hard several times before continuing his excited explanation.

"Xiao Hongchen's martial soul actually manipulated metal to form a cannon barrel. This cannon barrel was a natural fourth-tier soul tool from the moment it appeared. This is simply an ingenious martial soul skill!"

As if in response to the host's words, the translucent lines on the cannon barrel in Xiao Hongchen's hand lit up with golden light, and the long cannon barrel trembled violently, as if the energy gathered inside far exceeded what the cannon barrel could withstand.

"Fourth Soul Skill, Sacrifice of Gold!!"

boom!

An extremely unstable golden ball of light burst forth, flying towards Ma Xiaotao in a strange arc. The cannon barrel exploded, clearly indicating that it was now unusable.

"My God, Xiao Hongchen sacrificed a fourth-tier soul tool just to force Ma Xiaotao back and rush to Meng Hongchen's aid!"

On the other side, although Meng Hongchen was a bit of a fangirl, her combat experience was by no means inferior.

Ice-blue light clung to his body, and thirteen orbs of light appeared, instantly transforming into a set of close-fitting ice-blue armor, with a longsword of the same color held in his hands.

Zhu Qingbing possessed the Ice Toad, and the best-matched spirit rings lit up.

First Soul Skill: Ice Toad Poison!

An icy green mist was exhaled from its mouth, forming a protective zone in front of it.

Ma Xiaotao's eyes flickered slightly, and the phoenix behind her spewed flames, melting the ice mist and revealing a pool of blue-green water bubbling with green bubbles, emitting a malevolent green aura.

With a backhand punch, the Phoenix Roar struck the golden ball of light, creating a violent explosion that sent shockwaves rippled through the air.

Amidst the sea of ​​fire, Ma Xiaotao's figure burst straight out.

Meng Hongchen's expression changed slightly, and a mirror-like ice crystal appeared behind her. Under the refraction of light, her body appeared strangely on the other side, and Ma Xiaotao missed her target.

"Wow, Shrek Academy lives up to its reputation! Despite an attack that consumed a level four soul tool, Ma Xiaotao wasn't affected at all!"

While Ma Xiaotao and the Hongchen siblings were locked in combat, Ma Rulong also adjusted his angle, his head swelled up several sizes, and his spirit rings lit up, but it was unclear what the effect was.

Several soul-guided cannons on his shoulders completed their charging, and a series of cannonballs shot out with great force.

Huo Yuhao and Ling Luochen were not idle either. Together, the Eternal Frozen Domain enveloped the arena, and the water mist turned into snowflakes in the air.

The beautiful scene was shattered by the flying gunfire.

Ice Jade Gods Shatter!

The Ring of Ice!

Without any particular order, Huo Yuhao unleashed a spiraling blue shockwave, while Ling Luochen waved his ice staff to release an ice ring that restrained the projectiles.

The shells were contained and exploded in the air, filling the air with thick smoke, which then froze into gray snowflakes.

"Shrek successfully defended against Ma Rulong's first wave of attacks, but you must understand that the most terrifying aspect of the Soul Master Fortress tactic is its sustainability!"

Before the host could finish speaking, Ma Rulong's lips curled up slightly.

"The defeat was already decided the moment you failed to stop me from building my fortress! Mortal World!"

With a loud shout, Xiao Hongchen didn't even turn his head. He flicked his hand, and a golden light covered the cannons on Ma Rulong's body.

Although the two disagreed on the distribution of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, it did not mean that they were truly estranged.

They all harbored pride and longed to defeat Shrek in this competition to prove themselves.

"With Xiao Hongchen's blessing, the cannonballs on my body can reach the peak of level six, continuously raining down. How can you possibly withstand that?"

Amidst Ma Rulong's triumphant laughter, the soul-guided cannon on his shoulder continuously charged up, lit up, and fired, repeating the cycle, with wave after wave of barrages suppressing Huo Yuhao and his companions.

"Wow, how will Shrek respond?"

The host looked over and paused, momentarily stunned.

"What?! Huo Yuhao is stepping forward alone again?! Are they trying to repeat the battle at Zheng Tian Academy? But this is an explosion of countless peak level six cultivators!"

The host found it unbelievable and shook his head with a smile.

"I'm putting it this way: if Huo Yuhao can single-handedly withstand all the artillery fire, I'll eat a can of rotten fish while standing on my head!"

The Ice Extreme Divine Body subtly reflected light, making Huo Yuhao's skin appear crystal clear, like a fragile piece of porcelain.

The audience was almost reluctant to watch what was about to happen, fearing that Huo Yuhao's body would be shattered at any moment.

"Second Soul Skill, Ice Armor Protection!"

A layer of translucent ice armor solidified, exuding a chilling aura.

Huo Yuhao raised his hand and pointed, and the Wrath of the Ice Emperor transformed from his fingertip into a bright green light, which then split into clusters of green light to meet the Soul Guidance Cannon.

Boom boom boom!

With the help of a god-like perspective, the continuous explosions ensured that every soul-guided cannon was precisely intercepted. Huo Yuhao even had the leisure to control his soul power, ensuring that it could only detonate the soul-guided cannons.

Without wasting a single bit of soul power, Electrolux expressed his praise in the Second Sea of ​​Spirit.

"As expected of my disciple, his control is truly impressive!"

When his offensive failed, Ma Rulong's face turned grim.

The fortress tactic is renowned for its continuous offensives, attrition warfare, and suppression tactics, but its drawbacks are also extremely obvious.

Fortress tactics become too cumbersome when offensives fail to have an effect on the enemy.

Moreover, Ma Rulong was facing a God's-eye view that best countered fortress tactics. What appeared to him as a dense and comprehensive attack was full of flaws in Huo Yuhao's eyes.

Huo Yuhao was getting closer and closer, and Ma Rulong could see the playful expression on his face, a condescending look that seemed to be toying with his enemy.

Seeing the gazes from the audience, the host quickly forced a smile to defend himself.

"No! That doesn't count! I meant holding off the entire explosion alone!"

"Whoa~"

The audience erupted in loud boos.

The host had also developed a thick skin, and continued hosting the competition without changing his expression.

"Let's see what kind of counterattack Huo Yuhao will make! Oh, it's a powerful soul skill that froze an entire team on its very first appearance. Just how many soul skills does Huo Yuhao actually have?!"

Cold Abyss Suppresses Souls - All Spirits Return to Silence!

As Ma Rulong sensed the air around him solidifying, having investigated Shrek Academy before the match, he naturally knew that this was Huo Yuhao's powerful control soul skill.

He tried to struggle, but the drawbacks of the heavy fortress tactic became apparent. Before Ma Rulong could retreat more than a few steps, the "All Spirits Return to Silence" tactic had already taken effect.
