Chapter 119.

"Damn, which one should I tackle?" Ma Hongjun found himself unable to ponder much in the heat of the moment. A phoenix line of fire struck one of them directly.

However, Ma Hongjun's luck this time was evidently not as favorable as Dai Mubai's. The attack only connected with the clone, while the real Osler landed firmly on the ground.

Simultaneously, Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing, having consumed two mushroom sausages prepared in advance by Oscar, rushed to the scene with remarkable speed. Xiao Wu activated her teleportation ability, appearing directly in front of Yufeng to safeguard Ning Rongrong and Oscar.

However, instead of an immediate attack, the Wing Blades hovered in the air this time.

"Surging Wind!" Yufeng declared solemnly.

The thousand-year soul ring radiated brightly, and the wings on her back swayed abruptly, unleashing a hurricane of wind. This hurricane disrupted the Wing Blades trajectory, preventing them from being launched straightforwardly.

Consequently, the irregular movement of the wing blades made them even more challenging to evade.

"Soul ability combo?"

Wang Feng squinted, "Does the Emperor fighting team also know how to use soul skills combo? Did they learn it from observing us? It seems so! If Yu Tianheng didn't leave after the battle that day, he might have been observing Shrek's Seven Devils in action against the Mad Battle Team..."

In the original storyline, Wang Feng didn't recall Yufeng using this kind of soul skill combo. There was only one plausible explanation, they learned it recently.

Wang Feng couldn't help but feel bemused. Had it not been his own team, Emperor team, led by Yu Tianheng, would not have executed their strategies with such caution.

Surprisingly, they had also been observing Xiao San and their team's matches and decided to emulate them. The similarity in techniques indicated that their training had been ongoing for a considerable duration.

Wang Feng, despite being perceptive, didn't anticipate that Yu Tianheng would study the battles of Xiao San and their team. This seemed to have transformed the Emperor team strength significantly.

In retrospect, Wang Feng also realized that his punch might have made Yu Tianheng's team take the challenge more seriously, especially given that Rongrong, a member of the Shrek Seven Devils, was part of the combination with him. Wang Feng had provided Tang San with some tricks, but the extent of Emperor team's seriousness surpassed his expectations and might not be fully revealed yet.

Earlier, Yufeng released Osler in the air, clearly executing an alternative combo—an onslaught of Wing Blades that formed a storm. This was a formidable threat, particularly to units in the air.

Xiao Wu found it challenging to completely evade this Wing Blades storm. Yufeng's soul ability utilized her three soul skills in tandem. This marked the first instance where Xiao Wu fell victim to someone else's soul ability combo.

Despite her quick reaction, Yufeng, for some inexplicable reason, remained unaffected by Xiao Wu's charm. Even with the use of teleportation, Xiao Wu's body was still grazed by the chaotic Wing Blades storm, and a few droplets of blood fell to the ground.

"This Yufeng is a woman! She is not a man!"

Wang Feng expressed his bewilderment, "Xiao Wu's charm is significantly less effective on women! Combined with the substantial gap in spirit power, it's utterly useless... Yufeng is really..."

Xiao Wu herself was perplexed. Logically, even with a difference in soul power, it shouldn't render her charm ineffective.

Fortunately, at that moment, fatty's entire body ignited in flames, and a phoenix fire was unleashed with full force, colliding directly with the Wing Blade storm. One green and one red ray of light converged at the center.

Yufeng's expression shifted slightly, despite the opponent having only a hundred-year-old soul ability, its impact rivaled her own thousand-year soul ability. The only explanation was the martial soul's restraint.

With an explosion, Ma Hongjun sat on the ground, pale. Yufeng snorted, a trickle of blood also escaping from the corner of his now her mouth. Despite the injury, his now her soul power remained intact.

"This fatty is no pushover!" Yufeng cast a glance at Ma Hongjun. Simultaneously, Ma Hongjun also locked eyes with Yufeng. The exchange ignited a series of sparks in the air.

"Osler, move! There's a shift on the captain's side!" Yufeng suddenly declared with gravity.

Osler, currently engaged with Zhu Zhuqing, turned to look back, visibly puzzled. 'What's happening?'

In view, Tang San unleashed his external soul bone, the Eight Spider Lances, without any hesitation. The intensified efforts of the fighting team had placed substantial pressure on them and especially on him.

'Losing to brother Feng is one thing but to anyone other than him, it'll be a shame on me.'

"This battle has taken an unexpected turn!" Flender commented solemnly from the spectator stage. "The Emperor Team is being excessively cautious."

Grandmaster's expression mirrored the gravity of the situation.

"It seems that Tianheng must have observed Xiao San and his team's battles! I wasn't aware that they possessed soul skills combo akin to Xiao Feng's line of thinking... They must have been inspired after witnessing Shrek Seven use it."

"I didn't expect..." They were unaware that Yu Tianheng had observed the clash between the Shrek Seven Devils and the Mad Battle Team.

Wang Feng remained oblivious, and Grandmaster, too, was unlikely to be in the know. Yet, at this juncture, they both entertained the notion.

"Dai Mubai was the first to get injured, significantly reducing his combat power. While Ma Hongjun's soul ability, shattered the soul skill combo created by Yufeng, Ma Hongjun himself is low on soul power. Enduring a hundred-year soul ability, will still be possible but he may find it challenging to endure thousands years soul skill." Grandmaster murmured.

"Xiao Wu had also sustained injuries, though not severe. Currently intact, only Rongrong and Oscar remain unscathed with low combat effectiveness. The sole individual retaining combat effectiveness is Xiao San and Zhuqing."

"But on the other side... only Tian Heng had been inflicted with some poison, which is also non-fatal, and the rest still had retained their combat effectiveness. Xiao San's Eight Spider Lances might not be decisive enough move to defeat them!"

Flender was also silent for a considerable duration.

Despite Xiao Feng empowering Tang San and his team with good strategy, it wasn't limited to fortifying just their own teammates. It could also influence opponents, making them stronger than they originally were!

The unpredictable nature of it all!

Indeed, as Grandmaster anticipated, once Tang San activated the Eight Spider Lances—eight sharp spider-leg like spears, imbued with potent poison came out from his back as he directly targeted the Shi family brothers who was in the midst of once again employing the Tortoise Shell Burst, their third soul skill.

The spider legs clashed with the tortoise shell, producing a resonating sound, but it failed to inflict any significant harm. However, as the lances scratched through their bodies, the poisonous intrusion prompted an instantaneous change in their complexion.

Yufeng and Osler, rushing to the scene, also stood in bewilderment.

Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan were equally taken aback.

The appearance of the eight spider like legs behind Tang San was undeniably shocking!

However, Dugu Yan, as the commander, swiftly regained composure and uttered with seriousness, "Don't engage directly. He might be a twin martial soul, soul master."

"It strangely resembles the spider legs of a Human-Faced Demon Spider. Regardless, its power is formidable. Be cautious, as the consumption of soul power must be immense on him!"

"Disperse! Drag the battle out, avoid direct confrontation, and it will weaken with time. We'll defeat it without an outright attack!"

After Dugu Yan spewed two mouthfuls of Jade Phosphorous Violet Poison towards Tang San, the absence of Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun left Tang San unable to utilize his soul power to neutralize the poison. Dugu Yan's caution was on point, and they were fully aware of it—they needed to avoid the attack as much as possible. Tang San controlled the Eight Spider Lances, it was powerful but taxing to use and consumed significant soul power. The concern was the limited capacity to employ it, especially against foes with ample soul power like Yu Tianheng.

Dugu Yan's subsequent words hit home—they were exercising extreme caution. Just avoiding Tang San's attacks was enough to tilt the battle in their favor. Tang San was also worried that with direct threat of the Eight Spider Lances, the opponent would evade and not engage in combat.

Dugu Yan rushed toward those recovering behind the scenes. Although the jade Phosphorous Violet Poison had no effect on Tang San, it would deal fatal damage to those still recuperating, including Dai Mubai.

In response, Tang San, with an evil gleam in his eyes, unleashed his Blue Silver Grass. Rows of it rose to form an impenetrable city wall like structure. What followed was unexpected—he directed the blue silver grass to bend backward, like a compressed spring, and then it rebounded toward the front.

Accompanied by a terrifying wind, the blue silver grass acted like a fan, blowing the Jade Phosphorous Violet Poison back towards Yu Tianheng's side.

The move caught Yu Tianheng and others off guard. Blue Silver Grass could be manipulated in such a way? The wind not only cleared the jade Phosphorous Violet Poison but also blew it back towards the opponents. Grandmaster, witnessing this, applauded Xiao San's ingenuity.

While Tang San absorbed the jade Phosphorous Violet Poison using the Eight Spider Lances, the opponent had directly endured two successive doses. Tang San's move not only resolved the poison issue but also turned it into a counterattack. Yu Tianheng and the others had to dodge quickly.

Dugu Yan hastily unleashed another burst of Jade Phosphorous Violet Poison, colliding with the returning poison. The collision produced a thicker purple mist that dispersed into the air. Tang San seized the opportunity, charging into the enemy ranks and engaging in a four-on-one battle. Yufeng, with control over the wind, remained unaffected by the purple poison. Tang San managed to incapacitate Osler and Yu Tianheng due to the poison on the Eight Spider Lances. Even Yu Tianheng, relying on his formidable soul power, found himself momentarily halted.

Neither Yufeng nor Dugu Yan were attacked as the four of them engaged in a tense battle. Yu Tianheng blocked Dugu Yan, Yufeng remained airborne, and Osleer's speed made him elusive. The opponent's strategy of evading without engaging was effective, leaving Tang San with limited options.

Despite his efforts, Tang San managed to strike Osler and Yu Tianheng's dragon claws. However, the continuous exertion took its toll, and Tang San soon found himself on the ground, drained of energy. Dai Mubai, equally fatigued, joined him for support.

With Dugu Yan, Yufeng, and a partially recovered Yu Tianheng still standing, Dai Mubai expressed his concern, "We are most likely going to lose."

Coughing several times, he looked at Tang San with a furrowed brow. The battle had taken a toll on both of them.
