Ma Hongjun was trapped in the Wind Blade Cage, and the members of Shrek Academy were visibly worried.
"Teacher, is the fatty going to be okay?"
"This is a competition; Feng Xiaotian shouldn't dare to go too far."
Yu Xiaogang hesitated.
If Ma Hongjun could endure a bit longer, it would mean he could drain more energy from Feng Xiaotian.
Suddenly, with a loud "boom," the Wind Blade Cage was shattered, and scorching lava erupted into the sky.
That was Ma Hongjun unleashing his fourth spirit ability, Phoenix Crying to the Heavens.
Trapped in the Wind Blade Cage, Ma Hongjun was like an ant on a hot pan, frantic and disoriented. Although he had activated Phoenix Crying to the Heavens, he couldn't lock onto Feng Xiaotian.
Since entering the match, Ma Hongjun had already used all four of his spirit abilities, leading to a significant drain on his spirit power.
Meanwhile, Feng Xiaotian didn't blindly engage him in a fight; he merely restricted Ma Hongjun with his agility and the Wind Blade Cage.
Worse off than Xiao Wu, Ma Hongjun bore dozens of cuts from the Wind Blades, with no uninjured spots left on his face, arms, legs, or back.
After landing, Ma Hongjun was furious and wanted to counterattack.
But Feng Xiaotian wouldn't give him any chance.
The Wind God Leg was unleashed.
One kick, two kicks, three kicks… Just like Huang Yuan, Tailong, and Xiao Wu before him, Ma Hongjun was kicked out of the ring and fell to the ground with a thud.
The members of Shrek Academy rushed over.
"Fatty, how are you?"
Dazed from the beating, Ma Hongjun ignored his pain and glared angrily at Feng Xiaotian in the arena.
"Dai Mubai, San Ge, you two must avenge us!"
Among the five who had fought for Shrek Academy, Ma Hongjun had drained the most energy against Feng Xiaotian and suffered the greatest consequences.
From his appearance, even if Jiang Zhu treated him, it would take several days for him to recover.
Tang San gritted his teeth.
"Don't worry, Fatty. We won't let your suffering be in vain."
Dai Mubai glanced at Ma Hongjun, then at Zhu Zhuqing, before turning to Feng Xiaotian, who stood in the center of the arena, and declared angrily:
"I won't give him a moment to breathe!"
Without waiting for Yu Xiaogang's signal, Dai Mubai strode directly toward the arena.
Zhu Zhuqing and the others wanted to say something, but Dai Mubai was already far away.
The watching students were all the more excited.
"Look! Shrek's team captain, Dai Mubai, is entering the arena."
"Can he stop Feng Xiaotian?"
"If he can't, then it will be Tang San's turn next, who also has a ten-thousand-year spirit ring."
"The rivalry between these two academies is becoming more and more thrilling."
With Dai Mubai's entry, the atmosphere of the competition grew increasingly tense.
In the VIP section, Ning Fengzhi wore a slightly complex expression.
He hadn't expected Feng Xiaotian to so easily overwhelm the five members sent by Shrek Academy.
Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ma Hongjun were the mainstays of Shrek Academy's team. Although they weren't as strong as Dai Mubai and Tang San, they were still among the best in the competition.
Even such capable warriors hadn't caused Feng Xiaotian any trouble.
Could Dai Mubai do it?
Huo Wushuang, Shui Bing'er, and the others were all focused on Feng Xiaotian in the center of the arena.
"Brother Tian is incredible; he effortlessly defeated five opponents. Seven are just around the corner!"
"Dai Mubai is strong too, and Tang San is still waiting. I wonder if Brother Tian can handle them."
"I believe in Brother Tian; his strength is beyond what we see. He's about to unleash his ultimate move—just watch!"
In the arena, Dai Mubai's eyes sparkled with intensity as he shouted:
"Feng Xiaotian, you're being too ruthless!"
Feng Xiaotian coldly replied:
"Compared to the ruthless tactics of your Shrek Academy, what do those few wounds on the fatty even matter?"
Dai Mubai was rendered speechless by this retort.
Feng Xiaotian's words echoed through the soul guide, making their meaning clear to everyone present.
During the preliminaries, Shrek Academy had severely injured several key members of the Royal Academy's second team, rendering them unable to compete in the subsequent matches.
The seven members of Canghui Academy also had their fair share of involvement in this situation.
Moreover, everyone had witnessed that in yesterday's match, out of revenge, Dai Mubai had seriously injured the vice-captain of the Thunder Academy, Lei Dong, preventing him from participating in the finals.
Among all the participating academies, none had displayed such cruelty as the Shrek team.
While everyone admired the strong, this was still a contest between academies; injuring others for personal gain was despicable and looked down upon by all.
On the sidelines, the members of Thunder Academy were filled with excitement.
Yesterday, their vice-captain Lei Dong had been harmed by Dai Mubai, and now Yu Tianxin had also lost to him, leaving them seething with frustration.
"Finally! Someone is stepping up to teach Dai Mubai a lesson!"
"Even though we lost twice to Shenkong Academy and Feng Xiaotian managed to defeat seven opponents, I don't dislike him at all. He has the strength, and even Shrek Academy can't escape being dominated by him!"
"Exactly! He's just too strong!"
Yu Tianxin smirked.
"Hmph! Your Shrek Academy finally has its day."
After being publicly rebuked by Feng Xiaotian, the members of Shrek Academy felt even more animosity toward him.
In the VIP section, Platinum Priest Salas was quite pleased.
He thought to himself: Feng Xiaotian is indeed talented, and unlike them, he might be useful to our Spirit Hall. This competition is getting more interesting by the moment.
In the arena, Dai Mubai deliberately provoked:
"Feng Xiaotian, if you have the ability, don't dodge around. Let's settle this with one decisive blow! How about that?"
Feng Xiaotian grinned.
"Then let it be as you wish! I'm not wasting any more time on you!"
Seeing that both sides were ready, the referee promptly announced the start of the match.
Both released their respective martial souls and spirit rings simultaneously.
Dai Mubai, a level 44 Assault System Spirit Master, with the White Tiger as his martial soul.
Once he activated his martial soul, a pale light erupted from his body, transforming him.
Building on this, he unleashed his third spirit ability, White Tiger Diamond Transformation, further enhancing his physique.
This ability doubled his attack, defense, and strength.
With the aid of his third spirit ability, Dai Mubai launched his fourth spirit ability, White Tiger Meteor Shower.
Each meteor carried an attack power equivalent to one-tenth of his own spirit power.
Centered on Dai Mubai's body, countless golden energy spheres, each the size of a fist, gathered together to form a single large sphere, which shot toward Feng Xiaotian.
Almost simultaneously, Feng Xiaotian completed his charge.
With the support of his second spirit ability, Twin Wolves, he activated his fourth spirit ability, All Blades Return to One.
Countless wind blades merged into a massive wind sword that surged toward the golden sphere.
