Chapter 1206 Suppression (Subscribe Please)_1
The significantly augmented Wu Changkong, with his cold eyes devoid of any emotion, looked towards Xu Sheng and coldly said, "Now, may I experience your Martial Soul?"
Although his strength was still affected by the pressure of Xu Sheng's aura, his Battle Armor allowed him to perform as best as he could!
Xu Sheng pursed his thin lips and indifferently replied, "Of course."
Even though Wu Changkong possessed Battle Armor, such a thing was trivial in the face of a vast disparity in strength!
What's more, he could tell that the Battle Armor the other was using still had potential for upgrading, obviously being only a semi-finished product!
With that in mind, he didn't say anything more, as the first soul ring at his feet suddenly lit up...
"First Soul Skill, Nether Flame!"
The entire space filled with Netherworld Ghostvine, and the thick grayish-white flames began to gather relentlessly on its stout roots. In just a few seconds, it had already condensed into a massive fireball tens of meters in size!
Just looking at it, you could feel intense palpitations!
But eerily, everyone present did not feel the temperature rise. In fact, there was even a faint chill!
Wu Changkong's eyes narrowed, and he gripped the Frost Sword in his hand a little tighter, thinking secretly, "Something's off about this fireball. Could it be a spiritual attack?"
Soul skills targeting the spirit were exceptionally rare, and if he were hit by the terrifying fireball in front of him, he could lose half his life!
Seeing his cautious expression, Xu Sheng immediately understood his thoughts and nonchalantly said, "That's right, my first soul skill is indeed a spiritual attack, Teacher Wu, you'd better be careful."
Upon hearing this, Wu Changkong couldn't help but snort, "As expected!"
Then, as Xu Sheng's mind moved, the entire grayish-white fireball enveloping half the sky began to fall slowly towards Wu Changkong...
Seeing the fireball drawing ever closer, Wu Changkong uttered, "Second Soul Skill! Frost Mist!"
He gripped the Frost Sword firmly and slashed violently towards the ground below him, leaving behind a sword mark that continued to emanate power...
Immediately afterwards, the sword mark began to vibrate violently, emitting a "buzzing" sound...
Dense mist erupted from the sword mark, enveloping everything including himself...
For a moment, it made everyone lose sight of the stage!
Xu Sheng, looking at the now invisible Wu Changkong, said with admiration, "Good idea, but it's a pity."
After a pause, he continued, "The soul skill I released is a spiritual attack, and... it has a splashing effect!"
After saying this, he didn't control the grayish-white fireball to search for Wu Changkong's figure but instead caused it to crash towards the whole ground...
As long as Wu Changkong remained on this platform without leaving, there was simply no way to dodge once the fireball exploded!
One of the teachers watching the scene shook his head and sighed, "Teacher Wu's thought process has been completely seen through by Teacher Xu! I fear that once the grayish-white fireball explodes, all living beings within the range will suffer the aftermath!"
He had bet on Wu Changkong to win! It seems like a lost cause now!
Another teacher also agreed, adding, "Yes! Teacher Wu, who's concealed his form, must have noticed this too. Once the fireball explodes, he'll be in danger!"
In this duel, if Wu Changkong wanted even the slightest chance of victory, he had to get close!
Kong Hanwen crossed his arms and quietly sneered, "Hmph! Isn't Wu Changkong the strongest teacher of East Sea Academy? Now he's been reduced to this state; let's see if he dares to be arrogant in the future!"
His mood was extremely buoyant, relishing the sight of his adversary being brutalized. There was nothing more exhilarating than this!
…
Wei Xiaofeng smacked his lips, "Teacher Xu's first soul skill is so terrifying, it looks like he's really going all out! I actually feel a bit sorry for Teacher Wu!"
Zhang Yangzi expressed his concern, "That's not necessarily the case, if Teacher Wu gets close, he still might lose!"
Clearly, in his eyes, Xu Sheng's Martial Soul was of the control class, so in close combat against an assault-type Soul Master, he would definitely be at a disadvantage!
Moreover, Wu Changkong had deployed his Battle Armor! The amplified strength couldn't simply be limited to the sum of its parts!
Wang Jinxi chuckled and interrupted, "Yangzi, you are completely mistaken. From the very beginning of the battle, it could be seen that Teacher Xu wasn't lacking in close-combat ability either; otherwise, how could he have repeatedly maintained a safe distance, not letting Teacher Wu get even a hair's breadth close?"
Wei Xiaofeng joked, "Exactly! Teacher Xu's close-combat capability isn't weak! Who knows, he might even possess Twin Martial Souls!"
After hearing the two of them speak, Zhang Yangzi replied gloomily, "Don't you guys worry at all? Teacher Wu also holds the title of the strongest teacher at East Sea Academy!"
So, was he the only one worrying for nothing?
After a pause, he turned his gaze to the silent Gu Yue beside him and asked, "Gu Yue, what do you think? Does Teacher Wu have any chance of winning?"
Gu Yue glanced at him with her beautiful eyes and shook her head, "The chance is zero. Under the pressure of absolute power, even wearing Battle Armor is of little significance."
If there were even a sliver of a chance of winning, Wu Changkong on the stage wouldn't have chosen to dodge in this manner!
However, it seemed that their discussion was too loud and happened to be overheard by Xie Xie not far away…
He glared at Gu Yue and the others with an unhappy look and sneered, "Humph! You all talk so confidently! Aren't you afraid of being proven wrong?"
Immediately after, he looked annoyedly at Tang Wulin beside him, "Tang Wulin, what are you spacing out for? These guys are talking about Teacher Wu like that!"
The corners of Tang Wulin's mouth twitched twice as he replied, "I... I also think that Teacher Wu has no chance of winning."
Xie Xie covered his chest, utterly speechless at Tang Wulin's response...
"You... never mind..."
He was well aware that Wu Changkong had no chance of winning, but the man in question was their teacher; he shouldn't just be discussed and humiliated by others!
…
Hidden within the Frost Mist, Wu Changkong watched as the grey-white fireball continued to fall toward the ground...
His expression turned ugly as he muttered, "Planning to make the Fireball touch the ground and explode, doing area damage, huh?"
From his use of Frost Mist to Xu Sheng's countermeasures, it had all happened in just a few seconds!
Perhaps Xu Sheng's combat experience was even richer than his own!
So, thinking he could win with such tricks was completely impossible!
With that thought, he casually slashed his Frost Sword forward, and all the ice-blue mist dissipated, revealing his figure...
Then, his gaze fixated on the grey-white Fireball mere meters from the ground...
His eyes flashing viciously, he shouted, "Fifth Soul Skill, Frost Speech Ice Wheel!"
