Chapter 258 - Chapter 187: Shi Xing: There's Really Not a Drop Left!

After receiving Su Yu's reminder, Shi Xing showed a hint of arrogance and looked towards the direction of Feiyan Sect.

The meaning in his eyes was clear: Just this?

Though knowing this was a psychological game, Feiyan Sect admitted that Feihong's defeat combined with that look really made them angry.

"Fei Xue, you go!"

A cold and beautiful woman stepped onto the stage.

"The match begins!"

Fei Xue's Martial Soul is the Ice Sparrow. Upon releasing her Martial Soul, she achieved the optimal Soul Ring configuration of two yellow, two purple, and one black.

The moment the match started, Fei Xue activated her Soul Attachment and ascended into the air, using her Soul Skills in the sky.

The first and third Soul Rings flashed.

A multitude of ice spikes formed, and cold air swirled around them.

The ice spikes quickly fell towards Shi Xing's direction.

Another Soul Skill that augmented the attack of the Soul Skill.

The attack speed of the ice spikes was very fast, arriving in the blink of an eye.

A large area was covered by the ice spikes, and their inherently hard and sharp nature combined with their speed, making the damage definitely significant.

Upon crashing down on the competition stage, they left tiny pits, and frost covered the spots nearby.

Shi Xing felt a stinging pain; the Battle Armor shield was breached, and two ice spikes hit him.

With the wide coverage of ice spikes, Shi Xing couldn't completely dodge them.

"Is this part of the Strong Attack System?"

The Soul Skill enhancing the Soul Skill increased the power of the small ice spikes, and the speed brought damage that was transferred onto the spikes without the Soul Master needing to bear it themselves.

It must be said that many Hidden Sects develop their combat models very well.

Agile Attack Systems can indeed transform in this way.

After enduring a round of ice spike attacks, Shi Xing's foot jet flared, moving him over the frost-covered ground to approach Fei Xue and attempt firing five Level 5 High-Explosive Bombs.

Fei Xue's figure was very agile, weaving between the bombs, her fourth Soul Ring flashing, an ice crystal forming on her body, shimmering with light, shielding her from damage.

...

Su Yu watched from the preparation area, nodding in acknowledgment of Feiyan Sect's various tactics.

In the development of Soul Skills, apart from not reaching the point of personal integration, other aspects were completely on point.

Also in tactics and combat techniques, they were all a perfect display of their power.

Additionally, the Proud Sword Sect's mastery of Sword Skills had to be acknowledged.

The fact that two Soul Kings could surpass their level to possess Soul Emperor Level strength indicated their mastery of Sword Skills.

"I really don't understand why a sect would withdraw from the Soul Fighting Competition under such circumstances."

The Soul Fighting Competition was meant for young Soul Masters to grow through competition, and having disciples from these sects participate could bring even better results...

On the stage, after two rounds of probing, Shi Xing realized the difference between Fei Xue's tactics and Feihong's.

They both were annoying.

Feihong relied on high mobility for harassment, but Fei Xue remained mostly stationary, responding to changes with constancy by launching ice spikes and leveraging her third Soul Skill to enhance their speed, allowing her to swiftly strike across the entire arena.

The two-hundred-meter distance meant the ice spikes could reach him in under three seconds.

With such wide coverage, Shi Xing had to utilize his thrusters to barely dodge all the ice spikes within three seconds.

This was what made Fei Xue particularly bothersome.

Critically, Fei Xue mostly flew in the center of the stage, maintaining a maximum distance of about a hundred meters from Shi Xing.

When the ice spikes hit the ground, they wouldn't vanish quickly, leaving a layer of frost that interfered with Shi Xing's movements when he landed. Fortunately, Shi Xing persistently used his thrusters to minimize this interference.

But this was very draining on Soul Power.

Shi Xing sighed inwardly.

Indeed, achieving a seven-win streak wasn't easy.

Even with the amplification from Battle Armor, facing a Soul King still made him cautious. He had a newfound respect for Su Yu, who had accomplished a seven-win streak in the previous Soul Fighting Competition with Soul Sect cultivation.

Su Yu's strength was devoid of weaknesses, a comprehensive might that allowed him to counter any enemy's tactics head-on.

In contrast, Shi Xing and the others had distinct personal styles, making them uncomfortable if tactics specifically targeted their weaknesses.

Under these conditions, completing a seven-win streak was even more challenging.

However, it was precisely because of these evident flaws that even with the enhancement of Battle Armor, they could achieve a seven-win streak. This subtly advertised the effectiveness of Battle Armor.

Engaging in extensive area attacks drained Shi Xing while Fei Xue, remaining airborne, also depleted her energy. Shi Xing wasn't stingy with his ammunition to wear her out, and after a bout of combat, Fei Xue's state rapidly declined.

Ultimately, through attrition tactics, Shi Xing successfully overcame Fei Xue.

Shi Xing felt that, counting the Soul Power from the Battle Armor's extended parts, he had only half of his total Soul Power left.

He pretended to look pale, as if heavily drained, while taking out a bottle to start recovering.

The third fighter from Feiyan Sect took the stage, and by the start of the battle, Shi Xing's Soul Power had recovered to about two-thirds.

But after just one fight, he had already consumed a third of it.

With only one-third of his Soul Power remaining, now Shi Xing didn't even need to pretend; he looked genuinely pale.

Feiyan Sect's strategy was indeed one of attrition.

Pressing for time, Shi Xing quickly refined the Soul Power from the bottle for recovery, managing to replenish his Soul Power to halfway before the fourth fighter from Feiyan Sect took the stage, feeling somewhat reassured.

"This Feiyan Sect is tough to deal with."

Originally, it was believed that selecting Shi Xing to battle against Feiyan Sect's Agile Attack System would make things easier. However, Feiyan Sect had also devised tactics specifically targeting him in return.
