Seeing that the Blue Silver Team was made up almost entirely of girls—and very pretty ones at that—the audience couldn't help but feel a bit dazzled. Still, despite the eye candy, most spectators were pessimistic about what awaited them next.
After all, their opponents were the Berserker Team, a squad riding a seven-match winning streak.
The thought that these beautiful girls might end up disfigured made quite a few people feel uneasy.
The team battle Soul Arena was enormous. Even with fourteen combatants on the field, it didn't feel crowded in the slightest.
As the host announced the start of the match, Xiao Yan's Blue Silver Team swiftly arranged their formation.
Zhu Zhuqing and Meng Yiran stood at the very front. Ning Rongrong positioned herself behind them, while Xiao Yan, Xiao Xue, Xiao Yi, and Yanzhi took up the rear.
Very obviously, Xiao Yan and the other three were pure spectators—professional freeloaders.
Unlike the Blue Silver Team's 2–1–4 formation, the Berserker Team adopted a 3–3–1 setup.
Their captain, Kuang Xi, stood at the forefront, flanked by two grim-faced middle-aged men.
Behind the burly Kuang Xi was a seductive woman, with two scrawny youths standing beside her.
At the very rear stood a plain-looking older man—clearly a support-type Soul Master.
After the host confirmed that both sides were ready, Xiao Yan and Kuang Xi answered in unison.
"Five-second countdown begins. Five… four… three… two… one. Team Battle Soul Duel, fourth match—begin!"
Unlike one-on-one or two-on-two duels, team battles included a countdown to give both sides time to release their martial souls.
With more than ten people releasing their martial souls simultaneously, soul rings flaring into view, the spectacle was undeniably eye-catching—exactly the kind of scene that packed the Grand Soul Arena with paying customers.
The moment the battle began, three soul rings—yellow, yellow, purple—rose beneath Xiao Yan's feet. His purple ring flashed as he activated his ability, and the Blue Silver Emperor rapidly condensed into a towering Blue Silver Eternal Tree three to four meters tall.
With a light tap of his toes, Xiao Yan leapt onto the tree.
And proceeded to slack off.
Standing high above, Xiao Yan watched Kuang Xi and the others like a spectator.
Any excitement he'd felt during the host's introduction vanished the moment he saw the Berserker Team's soul ring configurations—like a bucket of cold water dumped over his head.
His heart went ice-cold.
Seven people, and only one had an optimal soul ring setup. There was even a Soul Elder rocking the infamous white–yellow–yellow configuration.
This was the mighty Berserker Team?
Xiao Yan sighed internally. Soto City might be far better than Notting City, but it was still… lacking. Tomorrow, he'd take Ning Rongrong and the others straight to Heaven Dou City.
The imperial capital of the Heaven Dou Empire would surely have stronger Soul Masters.
What he needed were powerful opponents to temper Ning Rongrong and the other two—not this lot.
Although the audience and the Berserker Team were surprised by how quickly and strangely Xiao Yan activated his soul skill, no one paid it much attention at the very start of the fight.
The Berserker Team's support Soul Master methodically activated his abilities.
"Ruyi Disc—Defense Light, bloom!"
"Ruyi Disc—Attack Aura, bloom!"
A flash of light appeared in the middle-aged man's hand as a silver disc materialized. His first and second soul rings—white and yellow—lit up almost simultaneously, bestowing powerful buffs on his teammates.
At the same time, Ning Rongrong activated her own support skills.
"Seven Treasures has its name: first, Soul; second, Strength!"
Her two soul rings rotated as they enveloped the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda. Six streams of multicolored light burst forth, landing on herself and her two teammates.
Though they appeared to have seven people, one had already given up entirely—and soon, three more would follow.
Seeing Ning Rongrong's Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda, regret flooded Kuang Xi's heart.
If he'd known, he would've charged first and taken out that support Soul Master.
The Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda's support ability was the strongest on the continent.
Now that things had reached this point, regret was useless.
Kuang Xi's first white soul ring lit up. His already massive body grew even sturdier after the rhinoceros martial soul possessed him. The single horn on his head glowed with brownish-yellow light as he charged forward with unstoppable momentum—straight at Zhu Zhuqing.
The two goat-martial-soul Soul Masters beside him moved in tandem, also attacking Zhu Zhuqing.
After releasing their martial souls, horns sprouted from their heads, and white fur spread across their skin.
Meanwhile, the two agile monkey-type Soul Masters behind Kuang Xi darted forward at incredible speed, targeting Meng Yiran.
Five people attacked in unison—clearly the result of long-term coordination.
Facing the three charging at her, Zhu Zhuqing showed no fear. Her first soul ring flashed as she dodged Kuang Xi and lunged at one of the goat Soul Masters.
After activating Nether Spike, her speed doubled. Combined with Ghost Shadow Perplexing Steps, her movement surpassed the limits of a Soul Elder.
She moved like a phantom, closing in before the goat Soul Master could even react.
Her sharp claws lashed out. Enhanced by the Piercing Divine Claws, she ripped open ten gruesome, blood-red gashes across his body in just two strikes.
The goat Soul Master had defensive skills—one for charging, one for protection—but Zhu Zhuqing was simply too fast.
He never had the chance to activate them.
After heavily injuring him, Zhu Zhuqing's second soul ring lit up.
She spun mid-motion and charged toward the other goat Soul Master.
Hearing his companion's scream, the man was already on guard. His second yellow soul ring flashed as his right leg muscles bulged. He stomped heavily, sending strange shockwaves rippling outward.
Seeing his preparation, Zhu Zhuqing stopped abruptly. Soul power surged through five meridians as her claws gleamed coldly.
With a sharp vibration of her fingers—
Piercing Divine Claws!
Five streams of blue energy shot forward, rapidly enlarging in the goat Soul Master's eyes.
A split second later, searing pain pierced his chest.
Puchi!
Five pillars of blood erupted.
In the blink of an eye, the Berserker Team lost two combatants.
As captain, Kuang Xi now faced a choice: turn back to deal with Zhu Zhuqing—or press forward and eliminate Ning Rongrong, now dangerously exposed.
He chose the latter.
Digging his feet in, Kuang Xi accelerated. His second soul ring flashed.
As he charged, he swung both fists forward. Two masses of black light formed, collided midair, and merged into a massive black shockwave that blasted toward Ning Rongrong.
He knew he was a power-type Soul Master—fighting a speed-type one was disadvantageous.
Taking out the enemy's support was the smarter play.
And he trusted his teammates to handle the assassin behind him.
Facing the menacing black shockwave, Ning Rongrong's seven-colored light flared as she summoned the Glazed Sword and slashed forward.
"Sword Four—Extinction!"
This wasn't passive defense. She wasn't content with merely blocking.
Sword One Break emphasized speed.Sword Four Extinction emphasized destruction.
One sword strike—annihilation of all.
Even a battle-hardened veteran like Kuang Xi was dumbfounded to see a Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda Soul Master wielding a sword—and unleashing such terrifying power.
What kind of nonsense was this?!
The clash didn't wait for his confusion to clear.
Blue sword qi collided violently with the black shockwave, detonating in a thunderous explosion.
The sword qi punched through and shot straight toward Kuang Xi.
"Watch out!" the seductive woman shouted in alarm.
Kuang Xi snapped back to his senses. Speed wasn't his strong suit, so he immediately activated his third soul ring.
"Third Soul Skill—Berserker Rhino Armor!"
Under the purple glow of the thousand-year soul ring, the already armor-like keratin layer on his skin turned pitch-black, streaked with flowing blood-red energy.
This skill came from a thousand-year Berserker Rhino they'd hunted together, granting him terrifying defensive power.
Seeing this, the seductive woman quickly waved her hands, spider silk shooting out as she accelerated her first soul skill.
From atop the Blue Silver Eternal Tree, Xiao Yan nodded appreciatively.
Though unimpressive in soul ring configuration, their combat experience was solid.
Trusting teammates under pressure, decisive reactions, swift execution—Kuang Xi understood battle deeply.
Unfortunately…
The Ethereal Sword Art isn't something you can just block.
Previously, the sword art had been measured against the skills of Titled Douluo-level opponents.
And a Titled Douluo was a qualitative leap beyond ordinary Soul Masters.
Kuang Xi's third soul skill might barely stop Sword One—but Sword Four?
No chance.
Against armor, martial techniques held overwhelming superiority.
The sword qi slammed into the blood-glowing armor—
Puchi!
No stalemate. It pierced straight through.
Agonizing pain erupted. Hot blood sprayed.
Kuang Xi couldn't believe it—his undefeated third soul skill had been shattered so effortlessly.
After unleashing Sword Four, Ning Rongrong fell into a state of soul power exhaustion.
The cost was immense, and with support effects still active, she had no offensive capability left.
"First Soul Skill—Spider Web Descends!"
At that moment, the seductive woman completed her casting. With a tug of spider silk, a massive web dropped toward Zhu Zhuqing.
Zhu Zhuqing's third soul ring flashed as she activated Shadow Chase Steps, darting past the attack and charging straight toward the enemy support.
Taking out the goat Soul Masters was only to relieve pressure. Her true goal was the support.
In team battles, eliminating the enemy support early was nearly a guaranteed win.
Meanwhile, the two monkey Soul Masters had closed within three meters of Meng Yiran.
"Third Soul Skill—Spider Web Spray!"
Meng Yiran laughed brightly. Her third soul ring lit up as she swung her snake staff.
The serpent head opened wide, firing a rapidly expanding purple web.
Without pause, she swung again—launching a second web.
Facing the suffocating barrage, the monkey Soul Masters knew escape by speed alone was impossible.
Their only hope was to break through.
Both third soul rings flashed. Their arms swelled, muscles bulging, claws extending.
They slashed furiously.
Useless.
Against a soul skill derived from a Man-Faced Demon Spider exceeding standard absorption limits, their efforts were laughable.
The webs wrapped around them instantly.
Corrosive venom surged in, spreading rapidly.
Given their weak white–yellow–yellow setups, they collapsed within seconds.
Seeing teammates fall and Zhu Zhuqing moving like a ghost, the seductive woman shouted urgently:
"Use the third soul skill!"
But Zhu Zhuqing was already behind the support Soul Master.
"You won't get the chance."
At that moment, the seductive woman's third soul ring lit up.
Eight strands of hair on both sides of her head elongated under pink light, transforming into eight two-meter-long whips that lashed toward Zhu Zhuqing, blocking her path.
Zhu Zhuqing sensed sharp attacks—and poison.
Reluctantly abandoning the opening, she shifted direction and continued her assault.
The support Soul Master knew he wouldn't last. He immediately activated his third soul skill.
The Ruyi Disc emitted strange silver ripples, splitting into six streams that surged into the remaining teammates.
Just then, Zhu Zhuqing struck.
A sharp chop to the neck.
The man rolled his eyes and collapsed unconscious.
The silver light still entered the others.
Zhu Zhuqing frowned.
He knew he'd go down, yet still used it. Something's wrong.
Under the effect of this skill, all six Berserker Team members—including the fallen—trembled violently.
Their attributes surged by fifteen percent. Buff durations froze at one minute. Pain vanished.
Their eyes turned blood-red. Bodies swelled grotesquely.
Wounded warriors roared back to life like maddened beasts.
Xiao Yan clicked his tongue. "Now that skill is interesting."
Unlike Ning Rongrong's buffs, which vanished upon unconsciousness, this one persisted.
But the price was obvious.
"They're berserk. No reason left."
Compared to Tang Hao's self-destructive Ring Explosion, this was inferior.
Facing the frenzied Kuang Xi and two goat Soul Masters, Meng Yiran's snake staff moved like a living serpent.
Impossible angles. Unpredictable strikes.
Even sober, they'd struggle to defend—now they had no chance.
Her strikes shifted—not to wound, but to incapacitate.
The seductive woman retained some clarity.
Silk shot from her hands. Eight whips screamed through the air at Zhu Zhuqing.
With frenzy boosts and reason, she was far stronger than her teammates.
Zhu Zhuqing blurred, leaving afterimages, dodging flawlessly.
She counterattacked.
Five blue energy blades shot forth.
Prepared, the woman's second soul ring flashed.
She unleashed silk everywhere, forming a shield.
Spider Silk Shield.
Defense and poison in one.
Yet—
Puchi!
Five holes punched straight through.
Zhu Zhuqing appeared behind her, claws at her throat.
"Your silk is tough," she said coldly, "but my Piercing Divine Claws specialize in penetration."
"Your teammates are done. Surrender."
With cold steel at her neck and no allies left standing, the woman sighed.
"We surrender."
After the surrender, Meng Yiran dispelled the webs and toxins restraining the monkey Soul Masters.
They felt bitter.
They'd already given up—then the frenzy skill forced them into even worse injuries.
"Blue Silver Team wins!" the host announced, stunned.
The match had ended shockingly fast.
And only three girls had fought.
His gaze drifted to Xiao Yan atop the blue-gold tree, emotions complicated.
After withdrawing his skill, Xiao Yan left the arena with Ning Rongrong and the others.
As for healing the Berserker Team?
If he hadn't known their reputation, maybe.
But the host had said it clearly—teams that fought them were either crippled or dead.
If you dish out brutality, be ready to take it.
The Berserker Team could enjoy a long recovery.
