After speaking, Gu Yue slowly walked towards Wang Jinxi, and faintly, their auras began to merge!
Seeing this scene, Xie Xie's cheeks were tinged with confusion as he muttered to himself, "What does this mean, which move are they preparing to use?"
But suddenly, his eyes narrowed sharply, and he hurriedly called out to Tang Wulin, "Tang Wulin! Stop them quickly! You must not let Gu Yue reach Wang Jinxi's side!"
Although he didn't know what they were planning to do, a foreboding premonition inexplicably emerged from the depths of his heart!!
Hearing these words, Tang Wulin did not hesitate at all. He immediately burst forward at full speed with Xie Xie towards Gu Yue and Wang Jinxi, intending to intercept them…
However, it was obviously too late; Gu Yue had already taken a step ahead and reached Wang Jinxi's side…
Wang Jinxi looked at Gu Yue's face, thinking to himself in awe, "I feel the resonance, is this what Teacher Xu described?"
After speaking, he extended his palm towards her…
Gu Yue didn't play coy; she immediately reached out her own slender, boneless palm and gently clasped his…
In that moment, violent ripples began to spread around them; their auras had completely merged into one!
In unison, they shouted, "Martial Soul Fusion Skill! Bone Dragon Descent!!"
As their words settled, seven different elements enveloped them…
In an instant, they transformed into a colossal Bone Dragon King several dozen meters in size, with a complete form!
The dark aura that pervaded its entire body had vanished, replaced by a sacred and terrifying oppressive force!
The Bone Dragon King opened its massive jaws and emitted a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering roar, "ROAR!!!!"
Xie Xie and Tang Wulin, who were charging towards the two, were directly repelled by the oppressive force, their legs trembling uncontrollably…
Xie Xie, looking at the behemoth before him, swallowed hard, and incredulously said, "Fake... It's impossible, to perform such... such a terrifying Martial Soul Fusion Skill!!"
But Tang Wulin simply covered his chest with his hand, his complexion pale as he said, "Why... why does my heart feel this pain…"
The students below were all widening their eyes, unable to believe the scene unfolding before them…
"My goodness, this class actually had a trick up its sleeve, this level of Martial Soul Fusion Skill, is it really just executed by two 2nd Ring Soul Masters?"
"With this, Class 5 doesn't stand a chance anymore, right?? It's clear that even just the pressure is enough to give them a hard time!"
"Being hit by that Martial Soul Fusion Skill is no joke, you could really die!"
Especially Zhang Yangzi, who was good friends with Wang Jinxi; he stood up abruptly, exclaiming, "What?? Gu Yue can actually perform Martial Soul Fusion with Jin Xi??"
Gu Yue's Martial Soul is the Elementalist, and Wang Jinxi's is the Bone Dragon King; there's no connection at all!!
He had thought it was just a joke from Teacher Xu, only to find out it was for real!!
In that moment, his heart was filled with intense disappointment…
The other homeroom teachers also smacked their lips and said, "Hiss... I didn't expect someone from Class 1 could actually perform a Martial Soul Fusion Skill, the outcome has been decided!"
"No wonder Teacher Xu could stay so calm, he had this move up his sleeve!"
"Tsk tsk tsk! Teacher Xu truly is a cut above the rest!"
Xu Sheng just smiled slightly, not saying anything…
Although Wang Jinxi and Gu Yue could indeed use a Martial Soul Fusion Skill, well...
Wu Changkong's icy gaze swept over Xu Sheng, as he clenched his fist, saying, "This guy…"
As much as he didn't want to admit it, with Xie Xie and Tang Wulin in their current state, there was only one outcome if they were to resist the Martial Soul Fusion Skill!
Death!
…
Then, the crimson eyes of the Bone Dragon King on the stage suddenly brightened, locking onto Tang Wulin and Xie Xie. He opened his oppressive palms, and hurled a blast towards them…
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh~~," that terrifying attack even stirred up a mighty sound of tearing through the air…
Tang Wulin and Xie Xie, who were targeted, felt they had no way to dodge and could only watch helplessly as the giant palm drew nearer and nearer...
But just at that moment, a figure appeared out of nowhere, standing in front of the two of them...
Indeed, it was Wu Longkong, holding the Frost Sword, his face icy cold!
Seeing him, Tang Wulin and Xie Xie both sighed in relief...
At least, their lives were saved!!
The third soul ring under Wu Longkong's feet lit up...
The third soul skill, Frost Slash!!
Threads of fine snow began to spread from the Frost Sword, and soon after, the entire sword burst forth with a deep blue glow, as if awakening...
After gripping the Frost Sword tightly again, Wu Longkong unflinchingly slashed at the attack coming from above!!
The diminutive Frost Sword collided with the giant palm, creating a harsh, vibrating sound...
"Boom~~" Dazzling golden light enveloped the surroundings...
After the light faded, the colossal body of the Bone Dragon King also turned into pale blue particles and gradually dissipated...
Wang Jinxi, who had executed the skill, collapsed to the ground, and Gu Yue, though standing, was dizzy...
Her body began to fall slowly backward...
But instead of the expected sharp pain, she found herself leaning against a warm and solid chest...
The one who held her, Xu Sheng, smiled and said, "You did quite well to get this far!"
In Xu Sheng's arms, Gu Yue's cheeks flushed slightly as she weakly uttered, "Mhm!"
Wu Longkong glanced at Xu Sheng and then withdrew his Martial Soul, saying coldly, "We, Class Five, have lost this match!"
To win is to win, to lose is to lose – he would not make excuses on this score.
Upon hearing this, Tang Wulin and Xie Xie said in a daze, "Teacher Wu..."
They knew how much Wu Longkong had put into trying to help Class Five ascend to the first rank!
Seeing their reaction, Wu Longkong uncharacteristically consoled, "No matter, we'll just have to win it back next time."
Long Hengxu, the official overseeing the match, coughed and then announced, "As Teacher Wu has stepped in to save them, Class One wins this match! The rankings remain the same!"
Upon this declaration, a round of enthusiastic cheers erupted across the entire plaza...
"Teacher Xu!! Teacher Xu! Teacher Xu!"
"Wow, Teacher Wu looked so cool just now! True to his reputation as the aloof heartthrob!"
"Tsk, Class Five lost to Class One; this proves that Teacher Wu's teaching abilities are definitely not as good as Class One's!"
"Who would've thought that after such a twist and turn, the winner would still be Class One! Eh!"
"Anyway, Teacher Xu is the strongest teacher at East Sea Academy!"
...
In the infirmary!
After a support class teacher responsible for treatment examined Wang Jinxi, the expression on his face grew serious...
Zhang Yangzi, who was hovering anxiously by the bedside, urgently asked, "Teacher, how is he?"
The former shook his head, "The situation isn't promising. This student forcefully executed a Martial Soul Fusion Skill, and his Martial Soul is on the brink of destruction. He might save his life, but in the future... he will no longer be able to become a Soul Master."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yangzi's eyes suddenly became hollow, and he slumped to the floor...
"How could... how could this happen..."
