Seeing the scene unfold, the spectators were stunned.

The two fighters' fourth soul skills were somewhat similar; both transformed dispersed offensive power into a cohesive force, maximizing their impact.

This match was straightforward, brutal, and clear-cut.

As their powerful energies collided, a thunderous boom erupted, and a blinding platinum light illuminated the entire arena, making it difficult for everyone to keep their eyes open.

When the overwhelming shockwave gradually subsided, the onlookers realized that only Feng Xiaotian remained standing in the center of the arena.

At this moment, Dai Mubai had fallen outside the ring, appearing severely injured.

Although both competitors had relied on their fourth soul skills for the showdown, the suppression from the ten-thousand-year soul ring and soul power allowed Feng Xiaotian to easily defeat Dai Mubai.

The members of Shrek Academy hurried over upon seeing this.

"Boss Dai, are you okay?"

Dai Mubai forced a faint smile at the corner of his mouth.

"I'm fine; it's just a minor setback. I've achieved my goal. Xiao San, it's your turn now."

Everyone understood Dai Mubai's intention.

For this strike, he had left no escape route for himself and had nearly exhausted his soul power.

Feng Xiaotian had also consumed a significant amount of soul power to defeat Dai Mubai.

Though he lost the match, Dai Mubai had achieved his objective.

Now, Tang San would not be facing Feng Xiaotian at full power.

This was undoubtedly good news for Tang San and Shrek Academy.

Tang San patted Dai Mubai on the shoulder and helped him to his feet.

"Boss Dai, you've worked hard. Don't worry; I'll take care of the rest."

Tang San's gaze sharpened as he looked at Feng Xiaotian standing in the center of the arena, a surge of anger igniting within him.

He vowed silently: For the sake of those teammates who had been defeated and injured by Feng Xiaotian, he would give it his all, even if it meant revealing all his strength.

Yu Xiaogang said, "Xiao San, take advantage of his moment of recovery and get in there. Do your best, but don't act impulsively."

Tang San understood Yu Xiaogang's concern; he was worried about Tang San revealing the Haotian Hammer.

"Got it, teacher. I understand."

Xiao Wu tugged at Tang San's hand.

"Brother, please be careful."

"Don't worry; I'll be fine."

With the hopes of everyone riding on him, Tang San slowly made his way to the arena.

He could not afford to lose this battle.

If he did, it would mean that the entire Shrek Academy team had been defeated by Feng Xiaotian alone, which would be a devastating blow.

As Tang San approached the competition area, the excitement among the spectators grew.

"It's finally Tang San's turn!"

"Feng Xiaotian is impressive; he took down six opponents in such a short time, and he did it against the undefeated Shrek Academy! Now that Feng Xiaotian isn't at full power, I wonder if Tang San can stand up to him."

"The fourth ring is a ten-thousand-year soul ring, so it must be formidable. In previous matches, Tang San hasn't shown his true strength. This time, fighting for Shrek's honor, he must give it his all."

"Absolutely! Otherwise, he might end up being taken down in a one-on-seven!"

In the VIP section, Emperor Xueye and Ning Fengzhi were both anxious, not speaking a word as they quietly watched the arena.

Salaris smiled, eager to witness the upcoming spectacle; a mutual defeat was what he hoped to see most.

On the other side, Huo Wushuang was even more excited.

"It's happening! It's happening! Tang San is finally here!"

"Tang San is very strong; I suspect Tian Ge will unleash some moves we've never seen before."

"Of course! Tian Ge has been keeping a low profile; you haven't witnessed his self-created soul skill, the Stromwind Demon Wolf Slash."

"Exactly! Plus, Tian Ge has never showcased his fifth soul skill either."

"Alright, the match is about to start. Let's witness Tian Ge defeat Tang San and achieve a one-on-seven!"

On the arena, Tang San stood directly across from Feng Xiaotian.

The match hadn't officially begun, but the two fighters' gazes remained locked on each other.

Tang San was even calmer than the previous opponents, not like them, who had started with boastful remarks.

He silently observed Feng Xiaotian, like a mute, saying not a word.

Both understood that this match would not be easy.

Tang San knew that although Feng Xiaotian had expended considerable soul power in his battle with Dai Mubai, he was still a soul king with two ten-thousand-year soul rings, and his strength should not be underestimated.

Feng Xiaotian, of course, was also aware that despite Tang San only being at level 42, he possessed twin martial souls. Moreover, Tang San's Chaotic Wind Hammer technique countered Feng Xiaotian's Stromwind Demon Wolf Slash perfectly. On top of that, he had the external spirit bone, the Eight Spider Lances, and various Tang Sect skills.

Overall, Tang San's strength far surpassed that of Dai Mubai and the others.

If Feng Xiaotian had been at full soul power, he wouldn't have taken Tang San seriously.

However, he hadn't fully recovered from his earlier energy expenditure.

Thus, he could not afford to be careless in this match.

At the referee's signal, the match officially began.

The two released their respective martial souls and soul rings.

A burst of blue light emanated from Tang San's right palm; it appeared to be nothing special, just Blue Silver Grass, but no one dared to underestimate it after witnessing its power in previous battles.

Tang San initiated the attack first.

With his first soul skill, Bind, he activated it.

A strand of Blue Silver Grass silently spread out from beneath Feng Xiaotian's feet.

Tang San had underestimated Feng Xiaotian's abilities.

Even with his eyes closed, Feng Xiaotian could sense the subtle movements around him through the wind elements.

When faced with the approaching Blue Silver Grass, he chose not to leap into the air but instead utilized the Wave Step to sidestep it, conserving his energy.

Though Tang San had seen Feng Xiaotian use the Wave Step before, experiencing it up close was still shocking.

Without pausing to think, Tang San decided not to give Feng Xiaotian any time to recover and charged straight at him.

This time, he didn't release his martial soul; he intended to engage Feng Xiaotian in hand-to-hand combat.

Tang San believed that with his Tang Sect skills, Ghost Shadow Perplexing Steps and Xuan Jade Hand, he could cause significant trouble for Feng Xiaotian.

If he managed to grasp Feng Xiaotian's acupoint, the match would undoubtedly tilt in his favor.

However, Feng Xiaotian was prepared for Tang San's Xuan Jade Hand.

The Xuan Jade Hand was harder than steel; engaging in a direct confrontation would only waste time and soul power.

Using the Wave Step, Feng Xiaotian didn't focus his attacks on Tang San's arms during their close-quarters exchange. Instead, he targeted other areas: the head, legs, and back.

This took Tang San by surprise; he had intended for the Xuan Jade Hand to be a bait, but Feng Xiaotian didn't fall for it.

Feng Xiaotian's claw strikes were sharp and swift, forcing Tang San to stay on the defensive.

What started as Tang San's proactive assault quickly shifted to him being the one under attack.

"Feng Xiaotian is indeed tougher to handle than I imagined. My Ghost Shadow Perplexing Steps and Xuan Jade Hand have no advantage against him; I can't afford to engage him this closely any longer."
