Chapter 306.1. An Armor Made of Beautiful Ice Crystals


    It was an honor to be a Soul Sage before the age of twenty! In fact, only Xiao Hongchen knew the price he had paid for this. In the next five years, his cultivation wouldnt see any further improvements. He made this sacrifice so that he could be a Soul Sage before the tournament! It was very difficult to tell how he might improve in five years time. However, he didnt have any regrets. He wanted to beat all his opponents and reach the highest peak of the Continental Elite Youth Soul Master Tournament!


    Countless cannon barrels fired off. Meng Hongchen also appeared behind him. She was wearing an icy-blue suit of armor and holding a long blue sword in each of her hands. With the fastest speed she could muster, she burst towards Wang Qiuer.


    Her earlier surrender was tactical. She was going to defeat Wang Qiuer this time to save her reputation!


    There was another person behind Xiao Hongchen, Ye Nongfeng. At this point, Ye Nongfeng lifted a special soul tool to his shoulder. The back of the soul tool was cylindrical, while the front of it was full of coils. Rings of ring light were undting without any rhythm on these coils and gathering towards the triangr tip of the soul tool.


    Ye Nongfengs nickname was the Destroyer. His abilities werent that great, and his one-to-onebat abilities were extremely weak. However, he specialized in creating and using all types of unidirectional offensive soul tools. He was willing to sacrifice everything to pursue this extremity. Such a person possessed great strength when used in a team fight, just like the Tang Sects Eye of Fear. He also possessed the ability to turn the tables in a fight. He and Qiu Yi were abination: he was in charge of attacking, while Qiu Yi was in charge of defense. They were initially secret weapons that were brought in as substitutes. However, a few of the Sun Moon teams main team members had been killed by the Tang Sect, so they now had no choice but to fight. They were now revealing their true abilities for the first time!

    Up on the main stage, the pale-looking Xu Tianran finally smiled. He looked at Jing Hongchen and heaved a sigh of relief. He said, Hallmaster Hongchen, you are really good at hiding things! These young people are the future pirs and talents of the empire.


    Jing Hongchen sighed and replied, My grandson was very stubborn when it came to this tournament. To be honest, he consumed some special medicine to enable himself to cross the Rank 70 barrier and be an advanced-level soul engineer. However, hell be affected by that medicine for the next few years. Before hes twenty-five, Im afraid hell be unable to make any further improvements.


    Xu Tianran said seriously, His spirit ismendable. Hes willing to sacrifice for the glory of the country. No matter what happens to the Sun Moon team in the end, hell be a pir of our empire in the future.


    Jing Hongchen was relieved after hearing Xu Tianrans words. He was also very excited right now. As long as his grandson and granddaughter could defeat Shrek''s team in this fight, they would make history for the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy.


    ---


    The four who burst forward with Wang Qiuer didnt panic because their opponents demonstrated great strength. The four of them gathered together, andyers of light started to spread rapidly, forming a huge protective that covered all four of them. This was the Lan sisters soul skill, the Hai!


    The four of them maintained their formation and quickly moved towards Wang Qiuer. With Ning Tians enhancement, the Lan sisters Hai became very resilient even though they only had four rings. The Hai managed to block all the streaks of lights that were fired towards them. However, it was very difficult for them to advance.


    Xiao Hongchen didnt panic at all. Lan Xiu and Meng Hongchen were enough to restrain Wang Qiuer. Not to mention that Wang Qiuer was depleted from the earlier fights, could she resist the suppression of two ss 6 soul engineers even if she was in her peak state? Lan Xiu was also a ss 6 soul engineer! Otherwise, how could he possibly control the Nine Glories, which were ss 6 soul tools?


    After Wang Qiuer was forced back, she didnt continue to fight her way out anymore. She started to shift positions quickly, and avoided the pursuit of the silver lights in the air.


    However, the Nine Glories seemed to be alive under Lan Xius control. The nine streaks of silver light intersected in the air. At times, they formed a cage. At other times, they formed a. Wang Qiuer was greatly restrained, and couldnt get close to the Sun Moon team.


    Wang Qiuer still remained very persistent even though she was greatly suppressed. Her gaze was as cold as ever. Her spear kept on shing, and she asionally lifted her head to observe the Nine Glories.


    She seemed to be waiting for something.


    At this point, Meng Hongchen arrived. Her pair of swords carried streaks of sword light that were unleashed towards Wang Qiuer. In the air, the nine streaks of silver light descended at the same time. Three streaks were aimed towards her right arm, while the other six wove a cage that moved towards her body. They seemed to be trying to pin her to the ground.


    As Meng Hongchen arrived, the Vermilion Clear Icetoads poison also started to engulf the entire Shrek team.


    However, ayer of blurry, golden light started to shine from everyone from Shrek''s team. The golden glow didnt appear to offer any form of defense, but it managed to block out the poison.


    Shrek''s team was prepared, knowing that Meng Hongchen could poison them. Shrek Academy had its own Soul Tool Department too!


    Every member of Shrek''s team was wearing a type of essory known as a istion-type soul tool. It could iste all types of aura from ones body. Such soul tools were very effective against lethal poisons and polluted gases. They were specially used to resist the abilities of certain special martial souls.


    They could even iste some special elements. Simply put, it could greatly iste the fire elements of an opponents attack even though the impact of the attack couldnt be avoided.


    Of course, there was a price to pay for using such a soul tool. The depletion from using such a soul tool was equivalent to a ss 5 protective soul barrier. Even if one wasnt attacked, the depletion would still persist. However, the effect was very useful for Shrek''s team right now. They were isting the poison from the Vermilion Clear Icetoad!


    Wang Qiuer stood straight, without moving, as she faced a crisis. Against Meng Hongchens sword lights, there was only a cold look in her eyes.


    You are still so arrogant at this point? Meng Hongchen was furious now. Although she had conceded defeat earlier for tactical reasons, she wasnt convinced by Wang Qiuer at all. They were both Soul Emperors, and she even possessed the abilities of a ss 6 soul engineer. She didnt think she was inferior to Wang Qiuer at all!


    At this point, the nine streaks of silver light that were crashing down towards Wang Qiuer stopped in the air.


    Yes, they stopped. Following this, a weird streak of light appeared above Lan Xius head. It was onlyrge as a palm as it drifted above Lan Xiu, but Lan Xiu seemed very lost, and the Nine Glories that he controlled started to dim.


    They werent the only ones with a control-type soul master! Cao Jinxuans first and fourth soul rings lit up at the same time.


    Just as the silver lights stalled in the air, Wang Qiuer exploited the ws that had been exposed. She ducked out of the encirclement of the silver lights. Following that, she stabbed her spear ferociously towards her opponents chest.


    Meng Hongchens ss 6 ice swords couldntpare to the Golden Dragon Spear in terms of length! Her sword lights had been unleashed towards Wang Qiuers vital areas under the assumption that she wouldnt be attacked by the Golden Dragon Spear.


    Shit, their control-type soul master is up!


    Meng Hongchen didnt dare to dy any further. The chest portion of her armor cracked open, and a barrel the size of a human head popped out. A beam of intense light shot out towards Wang Qiuer.


    This was an extremely powerful ss 6 energy-gathering soul cannon.


    What about Wang Qiuer? She didnt even have any intention to dodge, and followed her spear. She was one with her spear. A sonorous dragon roar reverberated across the entire venue as her third soul ring lit up.


    A golden dragon head burst forward from her right hand. It seemed like it wanted to swallow the Golden Dragon Spear.


    Boom!


    The energy-gathering soul cannon charge was instantly destroyed as it was struck by the spear. The indestructible spear continued to shoot forward, its tip was about to reach the cannons mouth.


    Meng Hongchen was horrified, and an icy domain shone beneath her feet. This was her third soul skill, Ice Reflection. Within the domain of the Ice Reflection, she could shift her body as if she were using Instant Teleportation. Her first thought right now was to avoid the spear!


    As a light shed, Meng Hongchen shifted three feet to the side. The spear struck nothing, but Wang Qiuernded following this. She forcefully stomped her right leg on the ground.


    Boom!


    When her right foot hit the ground, it felt as if a mature elephant hadnded after jumping off a building. Immense soundwaves and quakes affected the shes in the other areas.


    The ground cracked open, and the domain formed by the Ice Reflection was immediately crushed. The spear generated a gust of wind as it swept across. It seemed to form a golden wheel as it shot forward.


    This was Wang Qiuers fighting style, extremely strong and forceful!


    Meng,e back! Xiao Hongchen shouted. He had originally thought that Lan Xiu and Meng Hongchen would be sufficient to deal with Wang Qiuer. At least, he believed they could suppress her, and after he dealt with the rest of them, this team round would more or less be decided.
