Behind Qian Yu, the Netherworld Angel focused her gaze on Xuan Zi and began to chant a series of complex phrases in a low voice…
Xuan Zi's entire body started to flash with black luminescence, as if he had been targeted by some terrifying entity...
Looking at Qian Yu and the chanting Netherworld Angel behind him, and then at his own body emanating black light, Xuan Zi thought to himself, "Is this a targeting soul skill? And this move actually makes my heart flutter..."
The inner court students below, sensing something amiss with Elder Xuan, exclaimed in shock again…
"What is that? Such intense black light is bursting from Elder Xuan's body!"
"It's a targeting soul skill! Such soul skills are extremely hard to acquire, and once targeted, it's almost impossible to dodge!"
"Qian Yu has managed to hold out against Elder Xuan for so long, and it looks like he even has the upper hand!"
"Impossible, it must be that Elder Xuan hasn't used his true strength. With Qian Yu's Soul Douluo soul power rank, how could he possibly be a match for Elder Xuan, a level 98 Hyper Douluo!"
The most worried was Ma Xiaotao below, her beautiful eyes fixed intently on the two men…
Fearing that Qian Yu would be seriously injured or even killed by Elder Xuan!
In midair, Xuan Zi couldn't see through this soul skill for a moment and immediately thought to himself, "No matter what, I must interrupt this soul skill first!"
His third soul skill suddenly lit up under his feet!
Third Soul Skill, Divine Bull's Roar!
The Taotie God Ox used sound waves to interfere, disrupting the opponent's mind and thoughts, while bringing a powerful spiritual attack!
Elder Xuan suddenly rose sharply into the air, then threw the chicken leg in his hand towards the Taotie God Ox behind him. The latter ferociously swallowed the chicken leg, which was completely enough to get stuck in its teeth...
Subsequently, its eyes gradually gleamed with a fierce red light, continuing to gather soul power…
The next moment, it opened its huge mouth wide and let out an intense howl, "Burp~~~~"
The terrifying sound wave caused ripples to spread out to the surrounding few hundred meters…
"Ah Ah Ah! My head is about to explode!"
"What… what soul skill is this of Elder Xuan's? Isn't it just a belch? Why do I feel like my brain capacity isn't enough!"
Ma Xiaotao only felt her head spinning with dizziness. Coming to her senses, she quickly called out to the other students, "Everyone, hurry and seal your ears with soul power!"
Even though most of Elder Xuan's attack with this soul skill was focused on Qian Yu, it was still not something they could easily withstand!
The other inner court students, hearing her words, hurriedly did as Ma Xiaotao had said, concentrating soul power in their ears to seal off their hearing…
But they still felt strong dizziness and ringing in their ears…
Suddenly, Zhang Lexuan jumped down from above, appearing in front of these inner court students…
Determinedly releasing her Martial Soul, a terrifying shadow of the moon appeared behind her as she slowly rose up, surrounded by eight soul rings…
The fifth soul ring lit up...
Fifth Soul Skill, Moon Condense!
A colossal moon shadow enveloped all the students, followed by an explosion of terrifying white light, isolating the rampant sound waves on the outside!
The inner court students behind her recovered from their dizziness to normal…
When their gaze fell upon the figure standing in front of them, they excitedly said, "Big Sister!"
"Big Sister!"
Ma Xiaotao, looking at Zhang Lexuan, respectfully said, "Sister Yue Xuan!"
In the entire Shrek Academy inner court, Zhang Lexuan was the only person Ma Xiaotao wholeheartedly admired, having broken through to the Soul Douluo at just over twenty years of age!
Her talent was even more terrifying than that of Ma Xiaotao!
Zhang Lexuan's eyes were heavy with concern as she looked at the two figures in the sky radiating terrifying auras, and turned to Ma Xiaotao to ask, "Xiao Tao, what happened? Is that person fighting Elder Xuan above an Evil Soul Master from the Holy Spirit Cult?"
Ma Xiaotao shook her head and explained, "No, his name is Qian Yu, he's an outer courtyard student of Shrek Academy."
Hearing this, Zhang Lexuan's pupils couldn't help but contract, and her gaze swept over the eight golden soul rings at Qian Yu's feet...
Frowning, she said, "Xiao Tao, are you joking with me? How could an outer courtyard disciple possibly reach the level of an eight-ringed Soul Douluo, not to mention those are clearly Evil Martial Souls!"
No sooner had she spoken than a shock went through her heart...
Qian Yu?
Wasn't he the student President Yan talked about before, the one who rescued Tang Ya from the Holy Spirit Cult?
Ma Xiaotao's eyes were utterly serious as she said, "Yue Xuan, I'm not joking. Qian Yu remained in the outer courtyard due to various reasons, but when it comes to strength, even you might not be his match!"
After hearing this, Zhang Lexuan's gaze was fixed unswervingly on Qian Yu in the sky...
She thought to herself, "Yes... not a match. How could someone capable of fighting Elder Xuan to a standstill be someone I could contend with!"
...
Qian Yu watched the terrifying sound waves rushing toward him and couldn't help but frown...
He then felt his Netherworld Angel behind him being impacted, and her chanting was instantly interrupted...
As for the accompanying spiritual attack, to Qian Yu it was completely inconsequential!
Qian Yu narrowed his eyes at Xuan Zi and then the seventh soul ring at his feet lit up...
Seventh Soul Skill, Angelic True Body!
Seeing that Qian Yu was even going to use his Martial Soul True Body, Xuan Zi called out in a hurry, "That's enough, Qian Yu, you have already passed the Sea God's Pavilion exam!"
If they were to fight using their Martial Soul True Bodies, the whole of Shrek Academy would probably not be enough for the two of them to battle in!
Hearing this, Qian Yu paused for a moment, his puzzled gaze turning toward Xuan Zi as he waited for an explanation...
"What do you mean?"
Xuan Zi once again took out a fragrant chicken leg, took a bite, and explained unhurriedly, "The Sea God Pavilion Master, Elder Mu, had already decided to reserve a place for you among the members of Sea God's Pavilion once you returned from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Device Academy."
"Today's battle served not only as a review but most importantly, to let the Shrek Academy Inner Court students see your strength clearly; otherwise, it would have caused a lot of trouble."
Lucky for Elder Mu to have him assess Qian Yu's strength. He had no idea that Qian Yu's power had already grown so formidable—possessing strength comparable to a level 96 or even level 97 Hyper Douluo while only being an eight-ringed Soul Douluo!
Given a few more years, surpassing him wouldn't be an issue at all for Qian Yu!
Qian Yu cast a glance at Shrek Academy below and said calmly, "I understand now!"
After which, he withdrew his Angel of Death Martial Soul and slowly descended from the sky...
Seeing this, Elder Xuan also retracted his Martial Soul and appeared instantly below...
Seeing Qian Yu approaching them, these Shrek Academy Inner Court students all took a step back, their faces filled with fear as they stared at him...
Zhang Lexuan watched Qian Yu warily and asked Xuan Zi, "Elder Xuan, what's going on?"
Xuan Zi smiled and said, "Yue Xuan, the battle just now was to test whether Qian Yu had the qualifications to become a member of Sea God's Pavilion."
Ma Xiaotao and Zhang Lexuan showed shocked expressions, "What? A member of Sea God's Pavilion???"
The gazes of the other Shrek Academy Inner Court students towards Qian Yu completely changed...
He's not even twenty years old, right?
Keep in mind, even their senior Inner Court sister, Zhang Lexuan, who is now twenty-five or twenty-six, hadn't become a member of Sea God's Pavilion yet!!
How could such news not shock them!
