As his voice fell, Ye Wuqing's eyes suddenly turned golden, as if two golden leaves were covering his pupils.
From his hands, dozens of golden leaves shot out, instantly forming a golden net in midair as it violently rushed toward Huo Yuhao.
They were still golden leaves — but their power this time was completely different.
Each leaf was like a razor-sharp blade, sweeping toward his body like a raging storm.
Facing such a dense barrage of leaves, Huo Yuhao showed no fear at all. His bloodline roared within him, and countless layers of ice armor instantly covered his entire body.
The moment the ice armor formed, the countless falling leaves had already wrapped around him completely, making his figure impossible to see.
"Huo Yuhao!!!"
Everything happened in a flash. Watching the scene, Wang Dong's face was filled with panic.
Soon, the storm of blade-like leaves ended. As the leaves scattered, the Huo Yuhao covered in ice armor shattered into fragments of ice that fell onto the ground.
As though… he had vanished.
Wang Dong anxiously scanned the surroundings, yet Huo Yuhao was nowhere to be found. Looking at the broken ice on the ground — could Huo Yuhao truly have fallen?
The onlookers were thinking the same thing.
"Where's Huo Yuhao? Why did he disappear?"
"Don't tell me he was really killed?"
"Impossible… Shrek's brightest prodigy, gone just like that!"
...
Just as everyone was speculating, the sky suddenly burst into a dazzling, rainbow-colored light!
"What!"
"What is that!?"
"What's happening!?"
It was Huo Yuhao!
He was gorgeous!
The Huo Yuhao who had disappeared reappeared before everyone's eyes.
He descended from the sky, wrapped in icy cold, and under the refraction of light — a rainbow appeared!
In that moment, Huo Yuhao's radiance stunned everyone present.
Even Ye Wuqing seemed shaken. In the instant of his distraction, Huo Yuhao's hands had already reached him.
The oppressive force of Ultimate Ice surged forward from Huo Yuhao's palms. Ye Wuqing immediately launched a new wave of golden leaves to block!
But before Huo Yuhao's terrifying hands, the golden leaves instantly collapsed.
A heavy palm strike landed squarely on Ye Wuqing's chest, sending him staggering backward several steps.
But it didn't end there — Huo Yuhao activated his soul bone, one of his hands instantly transforming into a dragon claw.
The Dragon God Claw slashed across Ye Wuqing's chest, leaving behind a half-foot-long wound. Blood sprayed out, instantly soaking his chest. His pectoral muscles were split open by the sharp claws, flesh curling outward — a gruesome sight.
Everyone gasped in shock.
"That… that's a soul bone!"
"This guy actually has a soul bone!"
"That aura — that's definitely a high-grade soul bone!!"
...
The crowd's astonishment, combined with the burning pain in his chest, made Ye Wuqing feel as though his pride had been crushed.
At that moment — Ye Wuqing finally erupted in fury!
He no longer held back. This fake Soul Emperor was far tougher than he had expected — ridiculously so.
His fifth black soul ring lit up, and Ye Wuqing's aura shifted entirely. His golden left hand slowly raised, palm facing the sky, as if ready to rip open the heavens.
On that pitch-black soul ring, countless specks of golden light flickered. Tiny golden particles drifted outward, surrounding his body and forming a golden barrier.
Then — the light rapidly swelled into countless smaller golden leaves, numbering not dozens, but hundreds… even thousands.
Centered around his body, they spun rapidly, filling the entire stage with blinding golden light.
This was the difference between a ten-thousand-year soul skill and a thousand-year one. As the second ten-thousand-year soul skill to appear in the tournament, Ye Wuqing once again displayed the terrifying might of such a soul skill.
Ye Wuqing said coldly:"This is my fifth soul skill — Golden Leaf Dance. If you don't want to be shredded into minced meat inside it, surrender."
His icy expression gradually shifted into excitement.
Zheng Tian Academy was about to defeat Shrek Academy. As one of the participants still standing, and as the one who would witness this historic moment — how could he not be thrilled?
Facing Ye Wuqing's declaration, Huo Yuhao didn't respond at all.
He simply raised his right hand… and showed an international gesture.
"The sun isn't even down yet, and you're already dreaming?"
Huo Yuhao's words stabbed directly into Ye Wuqing's mind like a dagger. In front of this guy, he simply could not endure.
"Damn you!!!"
The terrifying Golden Leaf Dance surged, sweeping toward Huo Yuhao like a metallic tidal wave!
"ROAR—!"
A dragon's roar shook the stage! His arm turned golden, radiant and dazzling. A blazing golden light condensed in front of his palm.
Even the aura alone made the crowd tremble — it was high, proud, tyrannical, overwhelmingly dominant… carrying the air of a true king.
"Dragon's Fury!"
A shockwave of golden energy burst outward like a tidal explosion. Under the blinding flash, the countless golden leaves instantly turned to dust, annihilated in an instant.
But it still wasn't over!
The surging golden light continued forward, sweeping directly toward Ye Wuqing.
"No!!!!"
Ye Wuqing's scream rang out — he was completely desperate.
He couldn't block it!
This move would absolutely eliminate him!
He hadn't defeated Shrek yet. He hadn't become a legend yet. How could he fall here!?
Would his "Path of Ruthlessness" end today!?
Ye Wuqing's expression twisted wildly — yet he had no way out.
But just as he thought he was doomed, the Soul King behind him stepped forward and blocked the attack for him!
Boom!!
Dragon's Fury struck Ye Wuqing's teammate head-on.
With just that one hit, the Soul King instantly lost consciousness. Huo Yuhao's attack was simply too powerful!
Only a Soul Sage could withstand it!
Remember — Huo Yuhao's full-powered Dragon's Fury had instantly killed the Soul Emperor assassin sent by Dai Huabin, and even destroyed Xiao Hongchen's Grade-7 soul tool.
As the golden light faded, Ye Wuqing's teammate fell off the stage — and Ye Wuqing remained unharmed.
Staring at the scene before him, Ye Wuqing's initial terror gradually subsided.
Covering one eye, he lifted his head and began laughing wildly.
"Hahaha!"
"Hahahahahaha!"
"Huo Yuhao! That move of yours — you can only use it once, right? Now tell me, what can you possibly fight me with!?"
"I, Ye Wuqing, am the final victor today!"
