Chapter 1258: Predicament (Please Subscribe)_1

Gu Yue's beautiful eyes narrowed as she immediately unleashed her Soul Power, controlling the surrounding fire elements to form a gigantic fireball that slowly descended upon the opposition...

Seeing the incoming fireball, the male student named "Xu Hui," standing at the center, couldn't help but narrow his eyes and said coldly, "So impulsive at the very start, Luo Tianhe, Luo Tianzhen, go block that fireball."

Luo Tianhe and Luo Tianzhen, who heard these words, both nodded...

If one observed carefully, they would find that both of their Martial Souls were the same, each a shield about two meters wide, wantonly emitting a dark halo!

The next moment, the two stepped forward in front of Xu Hui, chanting in unison, "First Soul Skill, Kangjin Shield!"

Their first soul rings lit up beneath their feet...

In an instant, the shields in their hands, with its engraved patterns, started to be dyed with a piercing golden glow, significantly enhancing both their defensive capabilities and size!

In this way, they fiercely guarded Xu Hui behind them, completely without any flaws...

Tang Wulin immediately exclaimed upon seeing this scene, "What? Those two guys have identical Martial Souls! And they both focus on defense!"

Gu Yue frowned and said, "This is troublesome! We were planning to take advantage of the situation to attack that Xu Hui, but it seems it will be much more difficult than we anticipated!"

Xu Xiaoyan, a bit panicky, said, "What should we do now? If that guy unleashes his third soul skill, there won't be any chance of victory."

Gu Yue first tried to reassure her, "Xu Xiaoyan, don't panic,"

then she turned her gaze to Tang Wulin, speaking solemnly, "Tang Wulin, can you shatter those guys' defense?"

Tang Wulin paused and said seriously, "I can, but it will take a lot of time, especially since we don't know their other soul skills yet!"

If the second and third soul skills of those two students were also defense-enhancing, then even if he used his golden dragon body, he might not be able to break through!

Taking a deep breath, Gu Yue analyzed, "I see... then, Tang Wulin, all you need to do is cover me! Xu Xiaoyan, later you..."

Xu Hui, seeing Gu Yue and her companions still discussing, kindly suggested, "I advise you to surrender. If you were all three-ring Soul Venerables, there might be a chance of victory!"

"But relying solely on two one-ring Soul Masters and one two-ring Grand Soul Master, you don't even stand a chance to break our defense!"

He hadn't expected that the final match would pit them against such a weak team!

Hearing this advice, devoid of any intention to insult, Tang Wulin's expression remained unchanged as he clenched his fists, "We haven't fought yet; what makes you say we don't stand a chance?"

The next moment, he switched to his Golden Dragon King Martial Spirit, his right arm flickering with dazzling light...

He then took a step forward and rushed ahead, his fist, mixed with terrifying power, striking directly toward the shields raised by Luo Tianhe and Luo Tianzhen...

Upon the impact with the shields, a loud "buzzing" vibration erupted...

Luo Tianhe said in surprise, "Just a one-ring, yet possessing such terrifying power! But unfortunately, against our defense, you don't stand a chance to break through!"

Luo Tianzhen also said coldly, "That's right, you'll never know how much intensive training we've done to become champions of the Skysea Alliance tournament!"

Tang Wulin decisively ignored these words and threw another punch...

However, the result was still the same, without even leaving a mark on the shields!

Witnessing this, he gritted his teeth inwardly, "Damn! This defense is stronger than I imagined! Impossible to break through in a short time!"

Having seen all this, Gu Yue said coldly, "If we can't break through from the front, then..."

Without finishing her sentence, she began to control the earth elements under Xu Hui's feet, gathering them not far away...

Immediately, the area under his feet turned into a layer of swamp!

And similarly, having noticed this move, the latter glanced casually at the swamp coiling around his legs and said, unfazed, "Earth elements, huh? What of it if you bind me?"

No sooner had he spoken than the first soul ring at his feet suddenly lit up…

First Soul Skill, Excitation Tune!

Having finished speaking, he gripped the staff in his hands and struck the side of the huge drum beside him...

"Boom, boom, boom～～～"

The deafening sound instantly filled the entire combat platform...

It made Xu Xiaoyan and Gu Yue's minds tremble, and their complexions turned uglier...

Upon hearing this drum beat, Luo Tianhe and Luo Tianzhen's eyes filled with a crimson fervor, and they became excited...

They immediately erupted with powerful Soul Power, charging forward together...

And forcefully repelled Tang Wulin who had come attacking, pushing him back dozens of meters...

The latter shook his slightly numb palms, and his expression became even more solemn, "A soul skill that can influence the opponent and enhance one's own morale, huh? Quite troublesome indeed!"

This might be the most troublesome duel Class Zero had encountered!

There was completely no breakthrough to be found!

Seeing this scene, the students below all shook their heads and sighed, "Eh! It seems there's no suspense left in this duel; the team from East Sea Academy can't even break through the opponent's defense!"

"That's right; their opponents are all three-ring Soul Venerables, especially those two focused on defense. They're like the last straw that broke the camel's back for East Sea Academy!"

"Eh! I thought a miracle might happen, but now they can't even break through the defense. When that guy releases his third soul skill for a group attack, East Sea Academy is bound to lose!"

"To be able to get to the second place in the Skysea Alliance tournament with such a lineup is already something to be proud of!"

In the spectator stands, the members of the Skysea Alliance and the teachers from Shrek Academy all shook their heads...

"Eh, this duel is indeed unfair to the team from East Sea Academy!"

"That's true, forcibly absorbing soul rings with nearly ten thousand years of cultivation... they're literally playing with their lives! And they're also ruining their own futures!"

"A team that wins by resorting to such despicable means has no meaning at all! I think their qualification to compete should be revoked!"

"Yes, I agree, but the likelihood of that proposal being accepted is pretty slim! Eh, it's just bad luck for East Sea Academy."

...

On the other side, Xu Sheng, having successfully negotiated the terms, smilingly said, "Since you both agree, then it's a pleasure to collaborate!"

The two teachers from Shrek Academy opposite him twitched their mouths and said, "Yes, Teacher Xu, it's a… pleasure to collaborate!"

A pleasure to collaborate my ass, if it wasn't for the fact that they were no match for him, they would have taken action already!!

As for why they agreed to Xu Sheng's terms...

It was merely their verbal agreement, whether the academy agreed or not was another matter altogether!
