"No, no, no, this isn't arrogance."
Jiang Shengyu shook his head and said to Xiao Hongchen and the others at his side:
"You all step back. I'm about to start showing off."
Hearing this, Xiao Hongchen rolled his eyes. Meng Hongchen had already obediently moved to the edge of the stage, while Ai Cao still had no idea what was happening. Xiao Hongchen called to her:
"Senior sister, let's make some space. Let him show off."
"What's going on?" Ai Cao asked blankly, still not understanding what Jiang Shengyu intended to do. But seeing Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen so calm, she didn't ask further questions and simply followed Xiao Hongchen to the side.
Seeing this, Dai Yueheng and the others all looked rather strange.
From the looks of it, Jiang Shengyu intended to fight four against one? Where did he get such audacity?!
"Everyone, what you're about to witness is a miracle." Jiang Shengyu grinned at Dai Yueheng's group, slowly raising his right hand. Behind him, black and white twin flames erupted, forming wings of stark contrast.
The very light of space distorted beneath this dual-colored fire!
A terrifying wave of heat instantly swept across the entire arena! The audience gasped in shock—this was a heat unlike anything they had ever felt before! Even Ma Xiaotao's Evil Fire Phoenix martial soul, though powerful, had never reached such an extreme.
Dai Yueheng and the others instinctively released their martial souls to resist this dreadful heatwave.
Ling Luochen's face paled; she gritted her teeth and released her ice-element martial soul. Yet the icy aura she released was completely suppressed, unable to spread more than half a meter from her body.
Having sparred with Ma Xiaotao for years, Dai Yueheng quickly recognized this fire as something even more terrifying than hers—
The Ultimate Fire!
It could only be the Ultimate Fire!
"How is this possible? The Ultimate Ice and the Ultimate Fire—two mutually conflicting ultimate attributes—how could they exist in the same person? Is he also a twin martial soul? But what is his second martial soul?"
On the main platform, Xuan Zi and the others even stood up in shock, staring at Jiang Shengyu wrapped in the black-and-white flames with disbelief.
The flickering twin flames were like a storm of yin and yang, battering directly against their hearts.
Dai Yueheng gritted his teeth. Where he once dismissed Jiang Shengyu's arrogance about fighting one against four, now his expression was grave, no longer daring to underestimate him.
Just as he prepared to move together with Chen Zifeng and Xi Xi, Jiang Shengyu wasn't finished yet. He raised both hands, tilted his head slightly upward, exuding an air of supremacy.
Then—
a blood-red hundred-thousand-year soul ring rose from beneath his feet.
A savage and ancient aura burst forth like a flood. The entire arena seemed drenched in crimson! Facing this terrifying pressure head-on, Dai Yueheng and the others instantly turned pale, as though invisible hands were crushing their hearts, suffocating them.
The overwhelming oppression of the hundred-thousand-year soul ring, coupled with the burning heat of the Ultimate Fire, left them struggling even to move!
In the stands, younger students broke down entirely, crying out in terror. Even the outer court teachers found it unbearable. Overwhelmed themselves, how could they possibly protect their students?
Unlike the elders who usually restrained their aura when releasing a hundred-thousand-year soul ring, Jiang Shengyu showed no intention of suppressing it. He unleashed its full, unrestrained might.
Thus, in the eyes of the students, Jiang Shengyu was no longer human at all.
He was a savage beast crashing into the crowd!
"Impossible! He must be a beast in human form!" Poison Undying slammed the table, glaring at Jiang Shengyu in fury.
"Calm yourself, old venom."
Xuan Zi's brows furrowed as he tried to soothe him. "If he were a beast in human form, with so many Title Douluo present, do you think we wouldn't be able to tell? His aura is unmistakably human. This hundred-thousand-year soul ring must be the result of a fortuitous encounter."
Poison Undying barked back:
"What kind of 'fortuitous encounter' gives someone a hundred-thousand-year fifth soul ring?"
If it were his sixth ring, that would be shocking but barely acceptable—proof of monstrous talent. But a fifth ring at the hundred-thousand-year level? Such a thing hadn't happened in ten thousand years!
"His first ring was already at the thousand-year level, and his second was directly a ten-thousand-year ring! Some people's talent, whether you accept it or not, is simply beyond belief." Xuan Zi tried again to calm the furious Poison Undying.
The latter's chest rose and fell violently, his eyes locked unblinkingly on Jiang Shengyu.
Behind Jiang Shengyu, Xiao Hongchen and the others, though not directly facing the oppressive aura, were no longer calm either.
Xiao Hongchen muttered in disbelief:
"When did he condense a hundred-thousand-year soul ring?"
"Brother!" Meng Hongchen called softly, giving him a meaningful look. Xiao Hongchen caught it and immediately held his tongue.
Ai Cao stared at Jiang Shengyu ahead, her eyes filled with awe.
"Junior brother… so strong!"
Jiang Shengyu looked calmly at the pale-faced Dai Yueheng and the others before him.
"Fifth soul skill—Zhu Xian Sword Formation!"
As his words fell, four swords suffused with ferocious aura flew from the hundred-thousand-year soul ring, positioning themselves at the four cardinal points around Dai Yueheng's group. In an instant, a sword formation domain was constructed.
Within the domain, dust swirled as Dai Yueheng and the others quickly lost their bearings, unable to escape! Killing intent surged through the formation, cutting the four apart, forcing them to fight separately. Before long, some had already begun to suffer injuries!
Yan Shaozhe exclaimed in shock:
"A domain-type soul skill!"
Xuan Zi spoke gravely:
"It's natural for a hundred-thousand-year ring to grant a domain-type skill. But… I cannot discern its attribute. It is neither Ultimate Ice, nor Ultimate Fire…"
Inside the formation, Dai Yueheng's group stumbled like headless flies, completely disoriented. Behind them, Jiang Shengyu's black-and-white wings shed embers that coalesced into a dual-colored fire lotus.
The fire lotus drifted into Jiang Shengyu's hand, and with a flick, he sent it into the sword formation.
The moment the lotus entered, the formation roared in upheaval. A dreadful energy gathered within the lotus, even causing faint cracks to ripple through the surrounding space.
Seeing this, Xuan Zi's pupils contracted sharply.
"This is bad! That fire lotus is dangerous—Dai Yueheng and the others are in mortal peril! Shaozhe, stop the match!"
At his words, Yan Shaozhe did not hesitate. He stepped into the air, descending upon the arena with a commanding voice:
"The match is over! Withdraw at once!"
As his voice fell, he pressed down with his palm toward the Zhu Xian Sword Formation, shattering it apart.
Against the intervention of a Super Douluo, the sword formation created by a mere Soul King's cultivation could not hold.
The formation was broken.
