After the Netherworld Mad Lion possessed him, Dugu Shangshan's body gave off an illusory feeling.
Immediately afterward, a ring of cyan light rose from beneath Huo Yuhao's feet, instantly transforming into a small tornado that swept him inside. Although it wasn't strong enough to blow him off balance, Huo Yuhao's movements were forcibly restrained.
The Wind-Control Soul King from the Star Luo team had made his move!
However, just as everyone thought Dugu Shangshan would seize this opportunity to take Huo Yuhao down in one go, his attack suddenly changed direction!
With a single strike, it directly hit the Wind-Control Soul King!
The Star Luo team eliminated another member!
In an instant, the entire arena was shocked!
"Holy crap! What's going on? Why does the Star Luo team keep killing their own people?"
"Yeah! The match just started and they've already lost two members. Could it be that those two Soul Kings defected?"
"Too terrifying… Is this really the strength of the genius hailed as Shrek's strongest, Huo Yuhao?"
…
Compared to the audience's shock, the two remaining teams watching the match also looked extremely grave at this moment. The pressure brought by Huo Yuhao was simply overwhelming.
Especially those utterly inconceivable soul skills!
Below the stage, Wang Yan was already shouting excitedly.
"That's it, Huo Yuhao! Win Princess Jiujiu directly!"
…
And all of this was precisely due to Huo Yuhao's soul skill.
"Mental Suggestion!"
Even before Dugu Shangshan transformed, he had already fallen victim to it.
Under Huo Yuhao's suggestion, his own teammates were enemies, while Huo Yuhao was his ally!
After eliminating one teammate, Dugu Shangshan once again launched an attack on another teammate, shouting loudly as he did so.
"Damn it! Shrek will win!!!"
Facing Dugu Shangshan's assault, the Star Luo Empire side did not choose to eliminate him, because he was their last assault-type Soul Master.
Blocking Dugu Shangshan was the only agility-type Battle Soul Master on their team—Chen Xiaojie, who possessed the Lightning Falcon martial soul.
This Lightning Falcon was not only incredibly fast, but also extremely powerful offensively.
For a time, the two sides were locked in a fierce stalemate.
However, as time passed, both of them accumulated more than a dozen wounds. Though none were serious, they were continuously weakening their combat strength.
If this continued, the Star Luo team would lose two more members.
In the face of such a situation, Princess Jiujiu made her move.
Yet her gaze did not linger on the battle before her. Instead, it locked onto Huo Yuhao—the one who had activated the soul skill!
Princess Jiujiu narrowed her eyes slightly. Her right hand slowly pointed toward the sky, a speck of golden light shimmering at her fingertip.
An eerie scene appeared.
A layer of golden light descended from the sky, instantly folding back on itself and completely enveloping Huo Yuhao within it, then rapidly descending.
At the top of the golden light罩 was a bead with flowing brilliance, featuring a full one hundred and eight cross-sections.
This bead was as large as a fist, shining with dazzling light as it spun at high speed.
This sudden change stunned the entire Shrek team below the stage.
Under the arena, Wang Yan abruptly stood up, his eyes filled with disbelief.
"That… that's actually an Absolute Defense soul tool?"
"How is that possible?!"
"Absolute Defense is a Level Seven soul tool! They're actually using a Level Seven soul tool—and this Absolute Defense is a one-time-use item!"
"They didn't use it on themselves. Why did they trap Huo Yuhao instead?"
Hearing Wang Yan's words, everyone else widened their eyes in shock and hurriedly asked, "Teacher Wang, what exactly is an Absolute Defense soul tool?"
"It's similar to an Invincible Barrier, but it's a special soul tool that can be used in reverse."
"This type of soul tool can not only protect the user, but can also seal an enemy!"
"Once activated, for a quarter of an hour, the person sealed within the Absolute Defense barrier must face the defense of an eighth-rank Soul Douluo-level defense-type Battle Soul Master."
"At present, only the Sun Moon Empire can manufacture this kind of soul tool. Its core formation is extremely secret—we don't even have the possibility of producing it."
"It's said that this Absolute Defense barrier has already been bid up to over a million gold soul coins at auction. With it in hand, when facing a crisis, it's equivalent to having an extra life."
"It's far, far stronger than the Invincible Barrier that can only defend for three seconds. Fifteen minutes is enough to do a lot of things."
"Not only that—if it's used to seal an enemy, the enemy cannot escape, nor can they break it from the inside. But enemies on the outside can freely launch attacks and deal you a fatal blow!"
Sure enough, as Wang Yan finished speaking, Huo Yuhao's Mental Suggestion was broken due to the soul tool.
Because this soul tool blocked Huo Yuhao's soul skill—and because Huo Yuhao had not used his penetrating soul skill—the originally influenced Dugu Shangshan returned to normal.
Wang Yan sucked in a cold breath. Recalling everything from the auction at the Starlight Auction House, his face turned deathly pale.
Such a rare and expensive soul tool had clearly changed the course of the battle!
What should they do next?
Huo Yuhao had been targeted!
"Could it be that our Shrek really has no fate with Princess Jiujiu?"
"Oi!!!"
Just as Wang Yan was muttering softly, his lower back was struck hard by Wang Dong.
"Teacher Wang!!!"
"At a time like this, how can you still be thinking about Princess Jiujiu?! Huo Yuhao is about to lose!"
Huo Yuhao—the strongest—being suddenly trapped was nothing short of a catastrophic disaster for the Shrek team.
After all, only Huo Yuhao was on the stage this time!
Princess Jiujiu's tactics were clearly planned in advance. The moment Huo Yuhao was trapped, her fourth soul ring lit up.
Centered on her body, an intense mass of starlight erupted. This time, the starlight was dazzling like the sun itself.
Eighteen stars appeared on the surface of the barrier, shining brilliantly.
Princess Jiujiu glanced calmly at Huo Yuhao inside the barrier, the corners of her lips lifting slightly.
It was Attribute Isolation!
That meant Huo Yuhao could no longer use soul power to activate soul skills!
In other words—
He had been silenced!!!
"Huo Yuhao, you're destined to lose!"
On the city walls of the imperial capital, the Star Luo Empire's emperor revealed a faint smile.
"For Shrek, losing this match may not necessarily be a bad thing. Our Star Crown lineage's Star Guardian hasn't appeared on the continent for who knows how long."
"I'm afraid the soul master world has long forgotten this powerful soul skill known as Attribute Isolation. Today is destined to be a victory for our Star Luo Empire!"
…
At this moment, the long-silent Xiao Hongchen suddenly jumped up!
"Huo Yuhao! You're f*cking done for! Hahahaha! You finally messed up, didn't you?!"
"Now you're sealed inside the barrier, unable to escape! Even your martial soul and soul power are isolated!"
"Facing the Star Luo team's attacks, you have no way to resist!"
"Huo Yuhao, your destiny has abandoned you! Today's semifinal is the moment of your defeat!!!"
