Even if she lost, it would not mean anything. It must be that the enemy was sly!
Rather than see the objective truth, the majority would usually prefer to be on their acquaintances' side.
Tang Wulin was not scheduled for the first match in today's competition. Otherwise, it would be obvious.
Xie Xie would be fighting in the third match, Yuanen Yehui in the seventh, and Tang Wulin in the eighth respectively.
Xie Xie's match today was arduous. He had used a full twelve minutes before he found a chance and broke through the defense of his opponent. At least, he still had luck on his side before the next round began. Allowing that he met a five-ring Soul King expert in this round, and the opponent's battle armor was incomplete, not to mention he was not even a one-word Battle Armor Master, he was definitely lucky.
Yuanen Yehui would fight in the seventh match. The strength of her opponent could be regarded as the weakest among the top thirty-two. She did not expend too much energy to defeat her opponent. Alongside Xie Xie, both of them entered the ranks of the top sixteen.
At their age, it was an exceptional circumstance for them to be able to proceed to the top sixteen in the Continental Young High-Ranking Soul Masters Elite Competition.
Shortly after, the one who would be battling was Tang Wulin.
Dai Yun'er had been impatiently waiting for a long time. When the match between Yuanen Yehui and her opponent ended, she immediately jumped up from her seat. She pointed her right index finger in Tang Wulin's direction.
Tang Wulin had stood up also, but he was not looking in her direction. He was walking straight toward the stage.
"Yun'er, keep your cool, " exhorted Dai Yueyan.
"I want to beat him up until he can't even recognize himself!" Dai Yun'er ran furiously after Tang Wulin and followed him up the stage.
"Tang Wulin, you're dead!"
Tang Wulin was standing still on the stage when Dai Yun'er's voice echoed in his head. His spirit was slightly shaken. What a forceful spiritual power that was. She could project her voice using her spiritual power.
Ostensibly, he appeared to ignore Dai Yun'er when, in fact, he did not make light of her one bit.
She was one of the Eight Heavenly Kings not just because she was a princess. He had complete knowledge of Dai Yun'er's spiritual power.
Dai Yun'er looked at Tang Wulin with penetrating sparkling eyes. Her diminutive hands rubbed themselves together. Her gaze was sharp. She was ready to pounce on him right away.
"In this match, it'll be Spirit King Princess Dai Yun'er against the team captain of Shrek Academy, Tang Wulin. Princess Dai Yun'er's martial soul is Hell Civet. It's the inherited martial soul of the empire, an agility system Soul Master. Her speed is extraordinarily quick, and her attacks are powerful. On the other hand, contestant Tang Wulin is an assault system Battle Soul Master. I believe his previous matches had given everyone a deep impression of his battling prowess. It'll be difficult for us to determine who'd be the victor of this match. We'll have to wait and see what the princess has up her sleeves."
Fang'er honestly did not have high hopes for Dai Yun'er. The strength Tang Wulin had displayed in his previous matches was overly domineering. In addition, assault systems had a powerful restraining effect on agility systems.
Both of them were equally matched in cultivation base, but Tang Wulin had a potent bloodline power. If Dai Yun'er wanted to defeat him, it would be tremendously difficult.
Nonetheless, she was a princess. When Fang'er commentated, she was indubitably biased. It was obligatory.
Due to the soul barrier, Tang Wulin had not heard Fang'er's commentary. He had no idea that Dai Yun'er's martial soul was an agility system.
"Let the match begin!"
The referee's voice had just faded when Dai Yun'er rushed out quick as lightning. Her speed was incredibly fast. Beneath her feet, soul rings appeared — three purples and one black.
In terms of the soul rings' colors, they were identical to Tang Wulin's.
What fantastic speed!
She had afterimages behind her. Dai Yun'er had traversed halfway through the stage in one breath.
He found this martial soul to be surprisingly familiar. Tang Wulin was a little shocked. 'Isn't this the Hell Civet martial soul which Wu Siduo had? What a coincidence. Dai Yun'er has it also?'
Since he was not familiar with Star Luo Empire, Tang Wulin did not know that the martial souls Hell Civet and White Tiger were the royal hereditary martial souls of Star Luo Empire.
When he faced Dai Yun'er's charge, Tang Wulin did not move at all. He waited calmly at his initial spot for her to approach him.
When he arrived at Star Luo Empire a few days ago, he vividly remembered the scene where Dai Yun'er had spoken to him on the plaza in front of the palace. He had a deep understanding of Dai Yun'er's spiritual power. Tang Wulin knew that since Dai Yun'er was one of the Eight Heavenly Kings, there is more to it than meets the eye. With only a Hell Civet martial soul, it was impossible for her to attain such a level.
When she realized that she was less than thirty meters from Tang Wulin, the first soul ring on her body suddenly flashed. She instantly appeared before Tang Wulin as a beam of flowing light. It was incidentally the same first soul skill as Wu Siduo, Hell Rush!
It was precisely then that Tang Wulin noticed it was not cat claws that scratched at him. Instead, it was Dai Yun'er's eyes.
Dai Yun'er's big eyes glowed with an azure light ring. They were as clear as two blue crystals. Tang Wulin felt his consciousness flickered for a moment as if everything around him had suddenly slowed down.
A pang of pain hit his chest, and a bone-chilling cold came instantly.
This was bad! Tang Wulin instinctively knew that things were not good. Under the external stimulus, the Golden Dragon King bloodline reacted at once. Golden Dragon Body was activated as a response. Golden dragon scales appeared and shielded his chest. Hastily, Tang Wulin bit the tip of his tongue. He utilized his Purple Demon Eyes to regain clarity of his mind from the confusion.
"Bang!" Tang Wulin's body flew backward. He was sent soaring eight meters by Dai Yun'er's attack. He staggered a while before he managed to regain his composure.
Naturally, the audience could not feel what Tang Wulin experienced. What they saw was the princess charging forward, then Hell Rush brazenly collided with Tang Wulin, and he was sent flying upon impact.
For some time, the thunderous applause continued and shouts of exultation filled the coliseum. People from around ten miles away could hear the clangor within Star Luo Coliseum.
Tang Wulin shook his head vigorously. He raised the power of his Purple Demon Eyes to recover his spirits. He was terrified within. Predictably, Dai Yun'er's spiritual power was phenomenal.
Although Dai Yun'er's attacks were strong, Tang Wulin had prepared beforehand. The formidable defensive capabilities of Golden Dragon Body were complemented by his soul and blood essence powers. Currently, he felt jolts of stabbing pain, but he did not sustain any serious injuries. There were five white scratch marks on the golden dragon scales, but they were slowly fading away.
After Dai Yun'er sent Tang Wulin flying with her attack, her body was on the move again. Just when Tang Wulin regained his footing, she appeared before him. For a while, countless claw shadows darted toward Tang Wulin.
The purple light flickered in Tang Wulin's eyes. He protected his spiritual sea with the Purple Demon Eyes. He unleashed a simple and unadorned punch.
The air was compressed instantly. Dai Yun'er at once felt the wavefront of the compressed air in front of her. The tremendous pressure made it difficult for her to breathe.
Dai Yun'er's reflexes were quick. Her body swiftly retreated, and she made a half-squatting action.
Tang Wulin's punch landed on an empty spot, but he had successfully negated the attack of Dai Yun'er's Hell Hundred Claws. He raised his right foot and was ready to take a step forward. Simultaneously, he prepared to unleash Golden Dragon Shakes the Earth. However, Dai Yun'er suddenly moved, and she had timed her reaction perfectly.
It was the gap between the fading of Tang Wulin's previous punch and the stomp of his foot.
There was coincidentally an opening between the two actions. Her aura instantly became illusory. An eerie light cut horizontally into the opening and slashed Tang Wulin's waist.
This move caught Tang Wulin by surprise. She was really good at seizing opportunities. An opportunity with a gap that was no wider than a hair's breadth. Now, that was incredible.
Presenting his opponent with such an opportunity and at close proximity, Tang Wulin had no time to dodge the attack.
The golden scales instantly took on the appearance of a mirror. The eerie light landed on the scales and they immediately flickered. At the same time, Tang Wulin's imposing body was going to stomp his right foot on the ground.
Golden Dragon Super Armor!
They had fought for a short period, but Tang Wulin was already forced to use his Golden Dragon Super Armor.
Concurrently, when the beam of eerie light flashed across the stage, Dai Yun'er retreated. She was thrown back by the vibration of Tang Wulin's stomp. In fact, when the power of Golden Dragon Shakes the Earth propagated out, she had retreated far away. She had put ample distance between herself and Tang Wulin.
In the short span of time during which the two exchanged blows and collided, both contestants had used three skills each. However, anyone who had acute eyesight could tell that Tang Wulin was obviously at a disadvantage.
