"Behold!
This is the Medical Alliance Team's signature group attack tactic. Facing an endless barrage of control-type soul skills akin to a mountain collapsing and waves surging, even though the Tian Luo Team's members are generally one rank higher than the Medical Alliance Team, they are still utterly powerless!" The referee passionately narrated.
At this moment, the ace captain and vice-captain, Ye Wen and Huo Yu'er, had yet to make a move.
However, Bai Zhi's Heavenly Spider Web and Dugu Yan's Jade Purple Poison were already overwhelming the enemy with a deluge of attacks.
Though intelligence about the Medical Alliance Team was widely known, and the opposing team had prepared countermeasures—such as immediately applying antidote soul skills via their support-type soul masters—they still attempted to manipulate wind element users to fan strong winds and reverse the flow of poison while fire element users burned away the spider webs.
But Ye Wen could only shake his head at their efforts, thinking, "Your understanding of our team's abilities is far too superficial."
Setting aside Huo Yu'er for now, Ye Wen's first soul skill may lack offensive capabilities due to its spatial manipulation, but his second and third soul skills—wind and earth—were perfect follow-ups, excelling in both support and offense.
Though Ye Wen hadn't yet used the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew, his spiritual power had surged significantly after undergoing Ice-Fire Body Refinement and evolving his martial soul. His elemental affinity was stronger than ever. Though his mastery over wind and earth elements wasn't yet at their peak, he no longer needed to meticulously form hand seals to unleash their full potential.
Thinking they could counter the spider web control skills and deadly poisons with wind and fire?
Ye Wen smirked internally. "You're overthinking this!"
As Ye Wen's second soul ring lit up, even before he unleashed his attack, the spectators could feel the air shifting around them.
It felt like a typhoon was approaching!
Seeing this, the Tian Luo Team's captain's pupils contracted, and he inwardly cursed. "How absurdly powerful is this? Is this really something a level-38 Soul Elder can do!?"
But Ye Wen didn't bother wasting time. The moment his wind element was ready, he unleashed it without hesitation.
Second Soul Skill: Wind Element Mastery – Passing Typhoon!
A ferocious hurricane swept forward, and the poison mist the Tian Luo Team had just fanned back toward the Medical Alliance Team was violently blown back again.
Fortunately, the staff of the Tian Dou Spirit Arena knew about Dugu Yan's soul skills and immediately activated a protective barrier to prevent her toxins from spreading outside the arena.
As for Ye Wen and his team, there was no need to worry.
Not only did everyone carry specialized antidotes for Dugu Yan's toxins, but Ye Lingling wasn't idle either. The moment Ye Wen finished casting his soul skill, she unleashed the complete healing ability of her Nine-Heart Begonia, enveloping the team and instantly neutralizing any poison effects.
Due to the immense force of Ye Wen's Passing Typhoon, the opposing support-type soul master was immediately blown out of the arena, reducing their numbers.
Before the Tian Luo Team could react, Xiao Wu activated her third soul skill and teleported directly in front of them.
Xiao Wu's four soul skills were: Waist Bow, Charm, Teleportation, and her fourth soul skill, Invincible Golden Body.
Her fourth soul skill, enhanced by the ten-thousand-year soul ring and the Yearning Heartbroken Red, far surpassed its original effect in the canon. Instead of merely granting three seconds of invincibility below god-level and doubling strength, it now lasted five seconds and increased strength by two times. Additionally, the skill's limitation changed from once per day to twice per day, with each major breakthrough extending its duration by one second.
From this, it was clear how brainlessly indulgent Tang San's decision to discourage Xiao Wu from consuming the Yearning Heartbroken Red truly was.
Previously, Ye Wen had commented on Xiao Wu's first two soul skills. The Waist Bow was acceptable—it helped Xiao Wu maximize the power of her kicks. But the Charm skill was a glaring flaw, as it only worked against those with weak willpower or lower spiritual realms.
Under Ye Wen's guidance, Xiao Wu had largely abandoned her second soul skill, fully embracing the path of a violent, leg-focused loli.
In close combat, Xiao Wu didn't even bother using her soul skills anymore. She simply amplified her leg strength with soul power and relied on her incredible kicking techniques to send enemies flying off the stage.
The Tian Luo Team was shocked upon seeing this.
With Xiao Wu now in the center of their formation, if surrounded and attacked from within, they wouldn't last even a minute before being completely annihilated by the Medical Alliance Team. Such a defeat would be utterly humiliating!
Reacting quickly, the remaining members of the Tian Luo Team attempted to swarm Xiao Wu to buy time.
But Xiao Wu only smirked contemptuously. Placing her hands on the ground, she lifted her legs and began spinning in place, performing what looked like a street dance.
Having trained extensively together, Ye Wen and the others naturally understood what Xiao Wu was about to do.
"Really, the opponent isn't that strong. There's no need to use such a high-damage move," Ye Wen grumbled.
The earlier Passing Typhoon had been immensely powerful, but not without cost—Ye Wen's soul power had been halved. Now, with Xiao Wu preparing to unleash an indiscriminate attack, Ye Wen could only forcibly channel his remaining soul power to create an Earth Wall for defense.
Just as the Tian Luo Team was about to surround Xiao Wu, she completed the buildup for her self-created soul skill.
At this moment, the air around Xiao Wu's spinning legs distorted, and faint pink soul power fluctuations formed into a circular pattern.
Storm Leg: Circular Severance! (Rankyaku)
When Xiao Wu's leg slashed through the circle one final time, a devastating wave of soul power erupted outward, cutting indiscriminately in all directions.
Though the Tian Luo Team wasn't the strongest Soul Ancestor-level team, they were seasoned veterans. Yet at such close range, most of their members couldn't react in time and were sent flying, falling into critical condition.
However, the Tian Luo Team's captain, as the strongest member, exerted force with his legs at the last moment and leaped into the air, narrowly avoiding the attack. The vice-captain also managed to dodge.
Gazing at their critically injured teammates, the two captains were filled with rage. Though they knew the Medical Alliance Team was strong, this was beyond ridiculous!
"Damn it! Losing is one thing, but allowing other brothers to be gravely injured like this… Even if it's the end, I must severely injure that girl! Otherwise, how can I face being the captain (vice-captain)?!!"
Almost simultaneously, this thought crossed the minds of both the Tian Luo Team's captain and vice-captain.
But just as they prepared to use their strongest offensive soul skills to cripple Xiao Wu—they realized:
Xiao Wu was gone!
An ominous feeling arose in the Tian Luo Team's captain's heart.
At the same time, he noticed his vice-captain's expression, which looked as if he had just eaten something foul.
