Chapter 240 Crushing Defeat and Hope (Part 7)
Looking at the fiery red witch opposite him, Rachel summoned his own martial spirit.
A dagger appeared, and Rachel's weapon spirit merged with the soul tool in his hand. Looking at Wu Feng opposite him, Rachel knew that Luo Yu was giving him a chance.
Since that's the case, there's no need to hide our strength anymore.
As Rachel stopped concealing it, six spirit rings rose one after another: two yellow, two purple, and two black!
Six-Ring Soul Emperor!
Rachel is actually a six-ring Soul Emperor!
Why was Rachel always a five-ring Soul King before, and even when fighting those people, he always displayed the strength of a five-ring Soul King?
"How come this guy is only a sixth-ring Soul King? Wasn't he always a fifth-ring Soul King?" Dai Huabin looked at Rachel with a pale face.
"This time, the Sun and Moon team is terrifyingly strong..." Wang Qiu'er looked at Rachel, her brows furrowing slightly, clearly indicating that things had exceeded her expectations.
Rachel was showing weakness, and Jing Peng's strength far exceeded everyone's expectations. If Jing Peng hadn't chosen to wear down Dai Huabin instead of fighting to the death, Dai Huabin would never have won so easily. Fang Wei's relentless attack, regardless of the cost, further demonstrated his outstanding offensive power.
Sheng Hongyun's pride, Jing Peng's composure, Fang Wei's sharpness, Rachel's ruthlessness...
Just how strong is their captain?
"Rachel's strength has reached the Soul Emperor level? When did this happen?" Xiao Hongchen looked at Rachel in surprise, seemingly unable to believe the fact before his eyes.
Lu Jiuyu looked at Rachel and said, "I don't know, but the captain must know."
"Keep it a secret. Let Rachel tell you when he gets back." Luo Yu made a shushing gesture, indicating that everyone should look at the competition area.
Rachel was exceptionally confident on the field. He looked at Wu Feng and said, "If you admit defeat now, you'll still have a chance in the team competition later. But if you choose to fight me now, I can guarantee that you won't be able to play until the end of the tournament."
"Arrogant! Do you really think you had that kind of strength?" Wu Feng coldly looked at Rachel and retorted.
Wu Feng had also heard that, apart from a few key members, most of the other participants in the Sun Moon Empire's competition had forcibly increased their cultivation levels through drugs. Therefore, she believed that Rachel's strength must have been forcibly broken through to the Soul Emperor level through drugs.
Such soul power is superficial and merely a facade.
"Whether it really works or not, you'll find out once you try it."
A black light emanated from Rachel's body, and in the next instant, his figure shot out, appearing before Wu Feng like a ghost. A flash of black light, and a sharp dagger stabbed towards Wu Feng's back.
Sensing something amiss, Wu Feng didn't hesitate and immediately activated his Martial Soul Possession, unleashing a crimson dragon Martial Soul. His fiery dragon claws met the dagger head-on.
A ferocious attack immediately enveloped Rachel, and as it passed through Rachel's dagger, she was surprised to find that her dragon claw had passed right through Rachel's body!
Oh no, this is fake!
Stab it!
A sharp blade flashed past Wu Feng's back like lightning. Although Wu Feng was aware of it, the blow still grazed her clothes. The sharp soul-guided dagger left a shallow wound on her back.
In their first encounter, Wu Feng immediately found himself at a disadvantage, a situation that was extremely unfavorable to him.
At the same time, Wu Fengfeng did not hesitate, and behind her, her first and second spirit rings lit up one after another.
First Soul Skill: Dragon's Fire!
Second Soul Skill: Dragon's Fury!
With the activation of two soul skills in succession, Wu Feng's attack and defense were greatly enhanced. Around him, a ball of flame could be faintly seen burning fiercely on Wu Feng's body.
Rachel's figure disappeared, and before he vanished, Wu Feng saw the second spirit ring light up behind him.
Rachel was very fast, his figure was unpredictable. Wu Feng was certain that Rachel's second soul skill was definitely a speed-type soul skill. As an agility-type soul master, Rachel would never choose to use attack to confront himself head-on. For an agility-type soul master to confront a power-type soul master head-on would be to use one's own weakness to attack the other's strength.
A ghostly figure darted around Wu Feng, accompanied by Rachel's relentless attacks.
Each attack would occur in a blind spot beyond Wu Feng's sight. If it weren't for Wu Feng's quick reflexes, he would probably be covered in wounds by now.
The battle continues; on this seemingly peaceful stage, danger lurks at every turn.
Only Wu Feng herself knew just how terrifying this murderous intent was. She dared not make a move, for if she did, she would immediately be met with Rachel's relentless and fierce attacks.
A dark shadow flashed by, and Rachel reappeared beside Wu Feng. However, this time, before Rachel could attack, Wu Feng twisted his body and narrowly dodged Rachel's dagger.
After dodging Rachel's attack, a deep dragon roar rang out from Wufeng's mouth. After avoiding the attack, she opened her mouth and spewed out a stream of flames that swept towards Rachel's location.
Before the flames could engulf Rachel, her third and fourth spirit rings lit up behind her in succession.
A fiery red fist slammed towards Rachel's front.
Before Rachel, everything was a dark red, and even the space itself seemed to suddenly distort, followed by a storm of flames.
"boom--"
A crimson ball of light exploded where Rachel was, and terrifying fire-attribute soul power fluctuations spread wildly outwards, making the entire arena erupt like a volcano, filled with a scorching aura.
Although the Soul Emperor is strong, being hit head-on by Wu Feng's third and fourth soul skills at such close range would likely result in serious injury, if not death. Moreover, the difference in soul power between Rachel and her is only six or seven levels!
Seeing this, the crowds from the three great empires below the stage were filled with excitement. This scene made them feel that Shrek Academy still had hope of victory!
"Defeat the Sun Moon Empire, Shrek Academy will prevail!" someone shouted.
"Defeat the Sun and Moon Team, the Shrek Team will surely win!" Instantly, countless voices echoed across the arena.
"It seems these people harbor great hatred for the Sun Moon Empire. However, I also hope Shrek Academy can win." Long Aotian stood beside Vina, watching the situation on the field, with an ambiguous expression on his lips.
"The Sun Moon Empire will prevail! Shrek Academy will be defeated!"
For a moment, all sorts of voices mingled in the arena.
…………
Before the competition began, at Shrek Academy, Wu Feng was repeatedly defeated by Wang Qiu'er, but her strength was also improving with each battle.
Wang Qiu'er looked at Wu Feng and asked, "Do you think you can defeat the students from the Sun Moon Empire in the individual elimination rounds?"
"I can do it because I am a student of Shrek Academy and a disciple of the Shrek Inner Academy. I believe in my own strength and in the power of being an Inner Academy member," Wu Feng said firmly, looking at Wang Qiu'er.
…………
On the eve of the competition, she looked at the group of Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy members. She knew that if Dai Huabin lost the next day, she would be the one to play in the next match.
"What, are you worried about failing tomorrow?" Zhang Lexuan asked Wu Feng gently.
"The Sun and Moon team is very strong, I'm worried..."
Zhang Lexuan patted Wu Feng on the shoulder and encouraged him, "They were in the same situation five years ago. Now you're in a better position than them, so you have to believe in Shrek Academy and believe in yourselves. I also hope you can win the championship. Good luck!"
…………
In Wu Feng's heart, her strong-willed nature would not allow her to lower her head.
The moment the soul skill hit Rachel, her heart pounded like a drumbeat in her heart. I succeeded!
All my soul skills hit him!
Wu Feng clenched her fists, as if the injuries she had suffered before were insignificant at this moment. Looking at Rachel, who was engulfed in flames, a strong will in her chest told her that she wanted to roar to the sky and announce her success with a high-pitched dragon roar!
My blood is boiling, and my fighting spirit is burning!
Time seemed to stand still at that moment.
Just when everyone thought Shrek Academy could create a miracle, Rachel, bathed in flames, slowly walked out from a dozen meters behind Wu Feng.
As the flames subsided, Rachel appeared disheveled, his breathing somewhat disordered. Wu Feng let out a loud dragon roar, and flames blazed on his dragon claws.
Rachel did not answer; instead, the dagger that had vanished responded to the witch's wind.
The next moment, a blur swept past Wu Feng's shoulder, and a flash of light struck Wu Feng's left shoulder!
Stab it!
A sound of clothes tearing rang out, blood splattered, and the flames protecting the witch wind were torn apart as if by a piece of paper. The dissipating flames were like sparks that had lost their source, slowly extinguishing in the air and finally disappearing without a trace.
"How is this possible?!" Wu Feng was stunned. She staggered back a few steps and looked at Rachel in surprise.
Rachel didn't give her a chance. With a tap of her foot, her figure disappeared again, and a cold light appeared as the attack landed on Wu Feng once more.
Stab it!
Wu Feng's back defenses were also breached, and the force from the sharp blade caused her to fall forward, blood staining the corners of her mouth.
"How could this be... Rachel, you!" Wu Feng stared wide-eyed at the rather disheveled Rachel.
This scene stunned the crowd below who were chanting "Shrek will win!" In that instant, all the cheers came to an abrupt halt.
Their previous excitement turned to shock; they didn't even have time to close their mouths as they stood there dumbfounded.
It was as if time had frozen, a deathly silence descended!
Rachel wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and his gold-patterned clothes shone brightly in the sunlight.
The heat from the eruption of flames had not yet dissipated; the heat surged forth, lifting the slightly charred corner of his clothes as he looked down at Wu Feng, who had fallen to the ground.
His gaze was cold and devoid of any emotion.
Looking around at the astonished crowd on the field, he used his soul power.
"I'm sorry, Shrek, the team you supported, has lost."
Heavily in debt and the "forever" series.
Sorry, Shrek, the team you supported, has lost...
