Legend of the Dragon King: I really didn't mean to provoke them!

The four elements of wind, fire, earth, and water instantly intertwined beneath the opponent's feet, forming an elemental cage.

Xie Xie flipped his wrist, and the disintegrated light dragon chains reformed.

Once these three layers of confinement are fully formed, even if Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi try their best, they will have no chance of breaking free, let alone using their Martial Soul Fusion Technique.

But at this critical moment, Xie Xie's body suddenly froze.

He was horrified to discover that his body had frozen uncontrollably at that moment.

In those mere few seconds, the black wings on Zhang Yangzi's back began to tremble violently, and his first spirit ring suddenly erupted with dazzling light—

"Soaring Eagle!"

At the same time, Wang Jinxi suddenly felt the suffocating feeling in his heart vanish into thin air. Without further hesitation, the Bone Dragon King erupted, its entire body instantly covered in jet-black, hard bone armor.

The two activated their soul skills simultaneously, managing to break through the dual control set up by Tang Wulin and Gu Yue.

Seeing that something was wrong, Tang Wulin's eyes narrowed.

A strand of blue silver grass silently wrapped around Xie Xie's waist and suddenly pulled him back to his side.

Xie Xie's body only regained its mobility after he retreated to Tang Wulin and Gu Yue's side. The strange feeling of being restrained just now was like an illusion that vanished in an instant.

Taking advantage of the situation, Zhang Yangzi lifted Wang Jinxi up and retreated rapidly, enveloped in a dark shadow, creating a safe distance between himself and the three.

This time, it's two against three.

"good very good!"

Despite their repeated setbacks, Zhang Yangzi's eyes gleamed with excitement and a fierce fighting spirit.

Wang Jinxi, standing next to Zhang Yangzi, looked at Xie Xie and Tang Wulin with a complicated expression.

Xie Xie was slightly out of breath next to Tang Wulin.

"Are you alright?" Tang Wulin asked in a low voice.

"It's nothing." Xie Xie shook his head. "It's just that my soul power was consumed a lot, but everything else is fine."

Xie Xie just released three soul skills in a row. Even with the help of Guangzai and Yingzai, his soul power was still greatly depleted.

Xie Xie could be lively and energetic again after only a minute or two of recovery; anyone else would have been completely drained.

Zhang Yangzi, oblivious to Wang Jinxi's unease, continued, "Very good, you're much more capable than I imagined. But that's all for now!"

"Now, let me show you our true teamwork and strength!"

As he spoke, Zhang Yangzi's wings unfolded again, and the black light curtain suddenly intensified, enveloping them.

Xie Xie was speechless.

Dude, do you think this competition is child's play? Hiding your strength? If you run into some shameless guys, you'll lose everything.

Just as Xie Xie was about to make a move, Gu Yue reached out and stopped him.

“You used up a lot of energy just now, let me take over.” As she spoke, Gu Yue’s lips curled into a smile, and she took two steps to the front of the three of them.

A faint silver glint flashed deep within Gu Yue's eyes. She raised her right hand, and a dazzling golden light suddenly burst forth from her palm, as if she were holding a small sun.

A powerful aura of light erupted from her.

Bathed in the light, Xie Xie instantly felt warm all over, and his soul power gradually recovered.

Zhang Yangzi's dark sky was weakened by the impact of light elements, and the two figures inside became faintly visible.

Immediately afterwards, a fiery red light also ignited on the ancient moon.

Intense golden-red flames erupted from around her body.

"Elemental combination?" Ye Yingluo was shocked again.

As soon as the dark sky approached the golden-red flames, it vanished as if ice and snow were melting away, making it impossible to get any closer.

Zhang Yangzi raised his hand to shield his eyes from the glare and shouted at Wang Jinxi, "Jinxi, defeat that girl who can use elements first!"

As soon as the words were spoken, a huge bone dragon claw shot out from the dark sky and crashed down towards Gu Yue.

Along with the bone dragon claws, six bone dragons with their mouths wide open also appeared. The six bone dragons bypassed Gu Yue in front and went straight for Tang Wulin and Xie Xie behind them to bite them.

Just as the enormous bone dragon claw slammed down on Gu Yue, and six bone dragons with their ferocious jaws opened, rushing straight towards Tang Wulin and Xie Xie to devour them—

"Roar--!"

Unlike the babyish howl, a loud and deep dragon roar rang out from the Shadow Child's mouth.

Before Xie Xie could switch, the power of the Shadow Dragon surged forth on its own.

The Light Dragon Blade instantly retracted, transforming into a jet-black Shadow Dragon Dagger held in his hand.

His hair turned pure black at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his pupils were completely filled with intense blood color, transforming into terrifying blood-red eyes.

There was no activation of soul skills, and no burst of soul power.

The shadowy figure slowly coalesced on Xie Xie's shoulder, its crimson dragon eyes merely sweeping over it lightly.

A terrifying pressure originating from the supreme bloodline of the dragon race silently swept across the entire area.

The next second, the enormous bone dragon claw that had descended from the sky suddenly froze in mid-air, its momentum abruptly halted.

The six bone dragons that rushed towards them trembled violently, their ferocious postures instantly freezing. Their mouths were wide open but they could not utter a single roar. Their bodies were stiff as stone, completely frozen in place.

Wang Jinxi trembled violently, his face turning deathly pale. A deep-seated fear gripped his mind and body, and his soul power and martial soul power almost completely froze at that moment.

The entire room fell into a deathly silence.

Everyone was stunned by this sudden scene, unable to understand why the fierce bone dragon attack would freeze and become ineffective in an instant.

Tang Wulin immediately pulled Gu Yue behind him, his right hand turned golden, and he met the bone dragon claw head-on.

Our poor Wang Jinxi, after being suppressed by Yingzai and then by Jinlongwang, was once again turned into a human cannonball and was sent flying by Tang Wulin's punch.

Chapter 40 Gu Yue: Even if I'm dead, you can revive me from my anger!

Just as Wang Jinxi was sent flying, a dark shadow silently bypassed Tang Wulin, carrying a dense aura of darkness as it rushed straight towards Gu Yue.

It was Zhang Yangzi's second soul skill—Shadow Clone.

This clone embodies a full fifty percent of Zhang Yangzi's strength. The power of darkness is like a bone-deep infection; once it hits, it will frantically erode the soul power, causing it to continuously dissolve and disintegrate.

In the nick of time, Xie Xie almost instinctively pulled Gu Yue into his arms, his back completely facing the approaching shadow clone.

"puff--!"

The shadow clone disintegrated the moment it touched Xie Xie.

Intense, dark power surged into his body, writhing like a venomous snake and relentlessly eroding his meridians and soul power.

Xie Xie's body jolted, his eyes closed, and his brows furrowed.

"Xie Xie!" Gu Yue's expression changed drastically. She staggered back a step while holding Xie Xie before regaining her balance.

Seeing Xie Xie get hit, Zhang Yangzi laughed triumphantly from the dark sky: "Hahaha! You hit him! You're finished now!"

"Your soul power will be slowly eroded away by me, and even you yourself will be eroded!"

"Xie Xie?!"

In terms of speed and combat skills, Tang Wulin was far inferior to Xie Xie. The black shadow came so suddenly that Tang Wulin didn't even have time to react.

Seeing Xie Xie's condition, Tang Wulin's eyes flashed with obvious anger, and a golden light swept across them.

The next moment, he unleashed his full soul power, and strands of blue silver grass suddenly swayed and danced in the dark light curtain.

The blue silver whip lashed out directly at Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi.

Zhang Yangzi relaxed slightly because of his successful sneak attack, and was directly struck by a Blue Silver Grass, leaving a bloody mark.

Gu Yue looked at Xie Xie, who was leaning helplessly against her, and a flash of bloodlust appeared in her originally purple eyes.

She didn't say anything, but placed her left hand on Xie Xie's hair in a comforting gesture.

Immediately afterwards, Gu Yue raised her right hand, and red, blue, and cyan light swirled around it. Fireballs and ice spikes shot out in all directions towards the three of them.

At the same time, the blue light emanating from her body began to grow stronger and stronger, and her eyes became brighter and brighter.

After the first round of fireballs was unleashed, Gu Yue's hands had turned completely ice blue. The ice spikes shattered in the air and then merged into the blue light.

"Ice and snow storm—"

With a clear shout, a massive ice tornado suddenly materialized.

The gale howled like a wild beast as it swept across the arena, ice blades danced in the storm, and every inch of air was frozen solid.

The blizzard, carrying a thousand icy blades, slammed down on Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi.

Zhang Yangzi is indeed quite capable, but he has a penchant for taunting during battles, which has now given Tang Wulin and Gu Yue a good beating.

No, there are three people.

Even Wu Changkong, who was watching from the sidelines, frowned.

When she saw Gu Yue unleash the Ice Storm, she felt there was nothing wrong with it, and even thought that he had gone too far.

Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi's expressions changed simultaneously.

Wang Jinxi took the initiative to stand in front, and Zhang Yangzi also quickly used his soul power to protect himself.

At this moment, they have no way to hide.

Because the wind element in the blizzard has its own pulling force, it directly causes their speed to drop by half, making it impossible for them to escape the range covered by the blizzard.

Long Hengxu was stunned on the competition stage.

This is yet another elemental combination technique, and its power is comparable to a thousand-year-old soul technique!

Ye Yingluo's eyes were already glazed over.

"Heh... Elemental combination technique... heh..."

After being hit by the Shadow Clone Technique, Xie Xie clearly felt his soul power being continuously melted and dissolved by that strange dark power.

Even his limbs and bones felt a chilling, numbing, and sluggish sensation.

But this discomfort only lasted for a moment.

The rampant, dark, corrosive power that had just invaded the body was instantly bitten, devoured, and crushed by a violent shadow dragon force!

The power of darkness had no chance to struggle against the Shadow Child and was completely devoured in the blink of an eye.

Shadowy smacked twice, his dragon eyes revealing obvious disgust.

Almost simultaneously, the Light Child gently unleashed its light-attribute energy.

Warm and gentle golden light flowed slowly from Xie Xie's body, gently enveloping his meridians, soothing the stinging pain from the darkness, and making his previously sluggish soul power smooth and warm again.

In less than half a breath, the erosion that was enough to dissolve soul power was completely resolved by the two dragon cubs working together.

Just as he felt he had almost recovered, a chill suddenly ran down his back, making Xie Xie sneeze. When he opened his eyes, he was so frightened by what he saw that he swore out loud.

"Holy crap, what's going on?!"

Looking at the enormous ice storm before him, Xie Xie's mind went blank.

In order to prevent Gu Yue from going berserk and forcing Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi to use their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, he specially took the attack of the Shadow Clone for Tang Wulin.

But why did this living father of hers suddenly go berserk again?!

Xie Xie's mind was in complete chaos. The raging, howling snowstorm almost completely filled his vision, and all he could hear were the deafening roars of the wind and ice blades tearing through the air.

But the next second, Gu Yue in his arms suddenly went limp.

Her once cool and aloof face instantly turned ashen, even her lips lost their color, and the elemental light around her suddenly dimmed.

Even with her exceptional talent, Gu Yue's soul power was instantly drained by the large-scale elemental combination skill, Ice Storm, leaving her swaying precariously and on the verge of collapsing to the ground.

"Gu Yue!"

Xie Xie's pupils contracted, and his previously blank mind instantly cleared.

He almost instinctively tightened his arms, firmly pulling her into his embrace.

With one hand firmly supporting Gu Yue's lower back and the other gently holding the back of her head, he carefully protected her against his chest.
