Chapter 128: The Strength of Feng Wutong (Part 3)
Everyone stood dumbfounded, gazing at the fiery red figure soaring in the sky.
The divine bird flew majestically through the air, noble and graceful, overlooking all life. Combined with Feng Wutong's stunning beauty, everyone couldn't help but be entranced.
Feng Wutong frowned and asked, "Are we going to fight or not?!"
"Fight?! ...Fight!" Dai Yuan quickly snapped back to his senses. As her opponent, he immediately felt the overwhelming power of Feng Wutong's martial soul. His Qinghong Sword martial soul was completely suppressed. His breathing became shallow, and his soul power fluctuated irregularly.
After all, he was a level 38 Soul Sovereign. To be suppressed by someone without a third soul ring showed just how high the quality of Feng Wutong's martial soul was.
"What... what kind of martial soul is that, Wutong?" he exclaimed.
"Vermilion Bird," Feng Wutong replied succinctly.
"Let the soul battle begin!" Feng Qianli, feeling the pressure from Feng Wutong's martial soul, glanced at her seriously before raising his hands and announcing the start of the battle.
Dai Yuan, holding the Qinghong Sword, bent his arm to gather power. His gaze sharpened as he looked at Feng Wutong, reminding her with a grin, "Be careful, Wutong!"
Three soul rings appeared on him—yellow, yellow, and purple, the best configuration for his soul rings.
The first yellow soul ring lit up.
First Soul Skill—Sword Qi!
The air around Dai Yuan rippled as his soul power swirled. Sharp soul energy began to solidify in the air, forming sword qi that shimmered with a cold light.
High above, Feng Wutong coldly observed the oncoming sword qi, her face unchanging.
In the eyes of the Vermilion Bird, these sword qis were nothing but a form of child's play.
First Soul Skill—Vermilion Bird Divine Fire!
A white flame circled the yellow soul ring, and the surrounding air seemed to ignite, rapidly increasing the temperature.
The soul masters present could barely stand it, hastily calling upon their soul power to resist the intense heat.
Feng Wutong's phoenix eyes grew colder as she parted her lips. A surge of white fire erupted from her mouth and charged directly at Dai Yuan's sword qi!
Feng Wutong's first soul skill had originally been a blazing fire line, but after her martial soul evolved into the Vermilion Bird, the skill's power increased dramatically. The yellow soul ring could barely withstand the Vermilion Bird Divine Fire's strength.
The sword qi that had been Condensation, Condensation, Condensation cated seemed unstoppable, but upon meeting the Vermilion Bird Divine Fire, it melted like ice.
"What?!" Dai Yuan's eyes widened in disbelief.
His Qinghong Sword's sword qi was among the strongest attacks in the same rank of soul masters, but why was it so easily neutralized by a level 30 soul master?
"What exactly is this Vermilion Bird martial soul?!" he thought in shock.
After burning away all the sword qi, the white divine fire continued to surge forward, unimpeded.
His heart tightened. Without hesitation, he activated his first soul ring, and the sword qi around him gathered again. Under his command, all of it rushed toward the divine fire.
But the seemingly sharp sword qi was like moths to a flame. Upon touching the divine fire, it instantly turned to gas and vanished, failing to stop the fire at all.
The members of the Oakland team watching the battle were all filled with astonishment. They never expected that Dai Yuan, one of the strongest in the academy, would be suppressed by a soul master with far less soul power than him.
And this was only Feng Wutong's first soul skill.
"The power of Wutong's martial soul after evolution is truly terrifying," Dai Yao thought, a faint smile tugging at the corner of his mouth.
The stronger Feng Wutong's power, the stronger the Oakland team would be.
Zhu Zhuqing's brows flickered with a strange light. Now, Feng Wutong's martial soul quality was about the same as her own Nether Lord, which was impressive.
At that moment, Dai Yao suddenly noticed some unfamiliar faces entering the soul fighting arena.
Without a doubt, they were all fire attribute soul masters.
His gaze swept across the group, lingering on Huo Wu and Huo Wushuang for a moment.
"Based on this girl's attire and that burning aura, could this be Huo Wu from the Blaze Academy? And the person next to her is Huo Wushuang?"
Having read the original story, Dai Yao had a good impression of Huo Wu. Her passionate personality made it difficult for anyone to dislike her.
He was surprised, but he didn't stop observing the surrounding soul masters.
"Good heavens, could all of these people be fire attribute soul masters? Did they come here because of the anomaly caused by Wutong's evolved martial soul?!"
Huo Wu excitedly watched the woman in the sky, her fists clenched tightly. She turned to Huo Wushuang and said, "Brother, I must bring her to Blaze Academy. Blaze Academy is the best place for fire attribute soul masters to grow!"
Huo Wushuang's eyes were filled with fanaticism, as if he had just seen his dream goddess. He swallowed and said, "Yes, with her joining, the strength of Blaze Academy will increase dramatically."
"The sword martial soul soul master is indeed strong, but that girl only used her first soul skill and has already suppressed the sword martial soul master," he added.
Meanwhile, Ma Hongjun and Oscar stared wide-eyed, mouths agape, fixated on the woman in the sky. Their eyes practically formed heart shapes.
Ma Hongjun wiped the drool from his lips and greedily said, "She's beautiful! I feel that her martial soul is extremely compatible with my Evil Fire Phoenix. Maybe we could even combine our martial souls!"
Oscar scoffed, "Martial soul fusion? Ha! What I see is that you're just interested in the girl's body! You pervert!"
Dai Yao slowly withdrew his gaze, feeling a sudden heaviness in his heart. Zhu Zhuqing seemed to sense his mood and gently looped her arm through his, smiling sweetly. Her eyes sparkled like stars.
Dai Yao relaxed immediately.
"Humph! With the support of the Spirit Hall and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, you people think you can take Wutong? In your dreams!" he thought.
On the soul fighting field, Dai Yuan could feel the divine fire approaching. Its scorching heat made it feel as though his entire body was on fire.
"I can't hesitate anymore!" he gritted his teeth and activated his third purple soul ring.
Third Soul Skill—Sword Control!
With a stomp of his foot, the sword qi took shape and became a massive long sword, dragging Dai Yuan's body as it pierced through the sky.
The next moment, the blazing Vermilion Bird Divine Fire consumed Dai Yuan's original position.
Stepping on the long sword, Dai Yuan, still shaken, glanced back at the spot where the battle had just taken place. Letting out a long breath, he turned around, only to see a Vermilion Bird divine fire rushing toward him.
He quickly waved his hands, shouting, "Wait! Wutong, I admit defeat!"
During the battle, his attacks had been useless against Feng Wutong. His proud sword qi was no match for the Vermilion Bird Divine Fire.
He knew that if he continued, he would only be humiliated further, so he decisively surrendered.
Feng Wutong closed her lips, stretched out her jade-like hand, and slowly clenched it. All the burning white fire gathered in the air, forming a white vortex. As Feng Wutong closed her hand, all the flames disappeared.
"Such a powerful control over fire!" Huo Wu marveled. As a control-type soul master, she was particularly sensitive to fire control.
Just now, when Feng Wutong gathered her flames, it felt as though all fire attribute energy in the surrounding world had disappeared. That woman was a born queen of the fire element!
Actually, Huo Wu could also control fire, but she could never handle it with such ease. To reach Feng Wutong's level, she would have to be at least a fire attribute Soul Douluo!
"Not only that, her fire is incredibly terrifying! Its power far exceeds any flame we've encountered," Huo Wushuang's pupils constricted, and his heart was shaken.
He was an assault-type soul master and cared most about the power of flames. Feng Wutong's fire could likely surpass even the fire that their academy's Soul Douluo-level dean could summon.
