The boundless night extended endlessly, and the starry sky spread out in its vastness without a hint of boundary. Light particles descended from the dark expanse, sprinkling upon the ground stained with blood and corpses. Martial souls clashed, creating a resonant symphony reminiscent of clashing swords. Soul power reverberated like a storm while enraged roars shook the heavens and earth.

This was a brutal battle.

The Emperor and Shrek Team members, seasoned from numerous competitions and duels in the Soul Dueling Arena, had undergone significant trials. However, they had always refrained from taking lives as a fundamental principle.

But tonight, she marked an unmasked massacre.

The Blood Wolf Assassin Group, cruel and cunning, earned their living through bloodshed, employing vicious and sinister battle techniques. With superior numbers and soul power ranks far exceeding the students of the two teams, the Blood Wolf Assassins gradually pushed Tang San, Yu Tianheng, Dai Mubai, and the others into a precarious situation. The defensive formation of the two teams neared collapse, and injuries were sustained at every passing moment.

Fortunately, no fatalities had occurred yet.

"Jie Jie, die."

An evil wolf claw extended from the night sky, carrying overwhelming force as it struck Ma Hongjun's abdomen, tearing three bloody wounds on his round stomach and sending him flying.

"Fatty!"

The onlookers' eyes reddened, and alarmed cries echoed.

"Bluesilver Grass."

Tang San's quick reflexes sent out Bluesilver Grass, pulling Ma Hongjun back from the brink just as he was about to be engulfed by the Blood Wolf Assassins.

"Immortal Begonia."

Ye Lingling chanted a soul incantation, and the Immortal Begonia cast healing light on Ma Hongjun, swiftly mending his injuries.

"Little sister, let this uncle dote on you."

As Ma Hongjun was sent flying, another assailant targeted Zhu Zhuqing, a lascivious gaze tracing her curves as an evil claw reached for her.

"Netherworld Hundred Claws."

Zhu Zhuqing, at rank 28, defended herself with her second soul skill, but her opponent, a genuine Soul Ancestor, effortlessly dispelled it. Trembling, Zhu Zhuqing faced the approaching bloody palm.

"Get lost! White Tiger's Fierce Lightwave."

Dai Mubai roared, charging forward to dispatch the Soul Ancestor threatening Zhu Zhuqing. Three more Soul Ancestors closed in on Dai Mubai despite sending the assailant flying. He coughed up blood and collapsed into Zhu Zhuqing's arms.

"Yan, be careful."

Dugu Yan was sent flying, enraging Yu Tianheng. He unleashed his Thunderous Dragon Claw, tearing apart the one who had injured Dugu Yan.

Gradually, each member of the team fell into a disadvantageous position. The Blood Wolf Assassin Group's ruthless onslaught injured Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, Dugu Yan, and others.

"Of the seven treasures, the first is strength, the second is speed."

Ning Rongrong, burning with anxiety, provided buffs to the team again. The situation remained bleak despite Ye Lingling and Oscar's efforts to treat the injured. The Blood Wolf Assassins relentlessly attacked, putting everyone in imminent danger.

"Ah… Eight Spider Spear."

With blood-red eyes, Tang San unleashed the Eight Spider Soul Bone, coupled with concealed weapons, dispatching three Soul Ancestors in quick succession. However, he also sustained a severe wound on his abdomen.

The battle intensified. The Blood Wolf Assassin Group suffered losses, but Tang San, Yu Tianheng, and the others were forced into desperation. The defensive formation collapsed, and injuries multiplied.

"Haha, they can't do it."

"Brothers, let's finish them off together."

"Hehe, let's kill this group of little white rabbits."

A group of black-robed assassins sneered and rushed toward Tang San and the others, aiming to eradicate them.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Tang San, deathly pale, spat out blood and was sent flying. Dai Mubai's chest caved in, and he fell heavily to the ground. Yu Tianheng was sent flying, blood splattering on the ground.

Under the relentless siege of Soul Ancestors, the prominent members of the two teams were defeated. Exhausted and on the brink of despair, they faced destruction.

"Third brother."

Xiao Wu's eyes welled with tears, witnessing Tang San covered in blood. Distraught cries filled the air.

"Mubai."

Zhu Zhuqing grieved, repeatedly calling Dai Mubai, who remained unresponsive in a severe coma.

"Tianheng."

Dugu Yan, eyes red, reached out to catch the falling Yu Tianheng, but he was too late. Helplessly, he watched as Yu Tianheng collapsed into a pool of blood.

At this critical moment, most of the students lay on the ground, severely injured and nearing death. The Shrek and Emperor Team were on the verge of being devoured by the Blood Wolf Assassin Group.

"Haha, little sister, are you lost? Don't be afraid. Let Uncle protect you."

A bald man fixed his gaze on the frightened Ning Rongrong, advancing with an evil smile.

"Bad guy! Go away! Don't come over."

Ning Rongrong, terrified, cried out as the bald man approached. Clutching herself in fear, tears welled up in her eyes.

"Haha, little sister, have some fun with uncle."

The bald man lunged towards Ning Rongrong, but the sound of an unsheathed blade interrupted the scene.

"Whoosh."

A long blade cut through the night, turning into a snow-white blade that cleaved the bald man in half.

"Eh…"

Ning Rongrong, eyes red, saw a cold youth approaching. The snow-white blade in his hand dripped with blood.

"Fang Xuan, wuuu!"

Terrified, Ning Rongrong threw herself into Fang Xuan's arms.

Fang Xuan sidestepped, avoiding Ning Rongrong, who fell comically.

"You! You! You…"

Ning Rongrong pointed at Fang Xuan, unable to utter the word "bastard."

"What about you? I'm busy chopping people. I'm not in the mood to play with you."

Fang Xuan's cold face ignored Ning Rongrong as he charged towards two black-robed assassins. In his eyes, these Soul Ancestors were more enticing than Ning Rongrong.

"Bastard Fang Xuan…"

Ning Rongrong stomped her feet in anger and ran towards Fang Xuan.

"Hey! Wait for me."
