On the Soul Arena, Oscar and Dugu Yan stood facing each other, with a dragon shaped ice pillar separating them. In the middle of the ice sculpture, Ma Hongjun was starting to feel anxious because he might get caught in the crossfire.
At this moment, Ma Hongjun was doing everything he could to break free from the confinement of the ice sculpture, but the ice was created by a 25,000yearold soul bone skill. Its power was far beyond what he could handle at his current strength.
Moreover, Ma Hongjun's soul power had already dropped to less than 20%, so breaking free would take some time.
"Dugu Yan, Martial Soul: Green scaled Dragon Emperor, 54th level Control System Soul King."
As the words were spoken, five soul rings suddenly appeared around Dugu Yan. Two yellow, one purple, and two black. With the appearance of her soul rings, green scales began to cover her body, layer after layer, even covering her straight jade like legs.
Her arms turned into green dragon claws, and small, exquisite dragon horns grew from her forehead. A two meter long, slender green dragon tail swayed gently behind her, the tail's tip sharp and gleaming with a cold glint.
There was also a hint of ice blue in her originally green hair, and her eyes had ice blue markings near the corners. It seemed as though ice crystals flickered on her body.
This was the result of Dugu Yan absorbing her fourth soul ring, which added an ice attribute to her martial soul. Though the ice attribute wasn't the most powerful, it significantly enhanced her strength.
After transforming, her originally mature and aloof demeanor now had a touch of cuteness, creating a combination of being both regal and adorable.
However, no one here would let down their guard because of her appearance. Everyone knew the true strength of Dugu Yan, and even Oscar might not be able to win easily.
Oscar, too, was cautious. This time, Dugu Yan had absorbed a 100,000 year old soul bone, which greatly improved her physical strength and vitality. Moreover, with two 10,000yearold soul rings, her soul power reached level 54, putting her on par with Oscar in terms of strength.
Oscar, currently at level 48, might be slightly stronger in terms of physical fitness and mental strength, but Dugu Yan had one more 10,000 year old soul ring and a 100,000 year old soul bone.
To be honest, even Oscar wasn't sure if he could guarantee victory against Dugu Yan. After all, after evolving her martial soul, her offensive capabilities were on par with those of a top tier assault type soul master.
However, Oscar still had one advantage: he had an immunity to toxins. This meant he didn't have to worry about poisoning and could focus entirely on attacking.
Therefore, Dugu Yan's proud poison was ineffective against Oscar. At most, it could limit his movements, but to defeat him, she would have to rely on pure strength.
Facing the combined poison and ice attributes of the Green scaled Dragon Emperor, Oscar chose to fight with his Fire Martial Soul.
He took out two sausages from his Soul Guidance device. One was his first soul skill, the Super Healing Sausage, and the other was a miniature Fire Phoenix shaped sausage, a copy of Ma Hongjun's bloodline.
Oscar consumed both sausages. As his soul power rapidly replenished, a fierce flame erupted from his body, and four soul rings two yellow and two purple appeared around him.
With his martial soul manifested, Oscar underwent a massive transformation. His silver hair turned into fiery red, resembling the crown of a phoenix, and a flaming armor formed on his body. Flames coalesced into fiery wings on his back, spanning six meters, with four golden tail chains swinging. The aura around him was even more terrifying than Ma Hongjun's.
If Ma Hongjun now had the presence of the King of Birds, Oscar was even stronger.
Ever since acquiring his fourth soul skill, Oscar had not only replicated the martial souls of the Shrek Academy members but had also become thoroughly familiar with them.
He had even copied many other martial souls and had a deep understanding of how they worked.
"Oscar, Martial Soul: Evil Fire Phoenix, 48thlevel Assault type Soul Sovereign."
This time, Oscar didn't need to suppress his level. Facing Dugu Yan, whose soul power was at level 54, he would give his all.
As soon as Oscar released his martial soul, Dugu Yan made her move.
Her long legs moved swiftly, and her two yellow soul rings lit up.
"First Soul Skill: Green scaled Dragon Claws."
"Second Soul Skill: Green scaled Dragon Armor!"
One skill increased her attack, the other enhanced her defense. Dugu Yan's momentum surged.
But before she could close the distance, Oscar's fiery wings flapped, and he soared into the air, avoiding a direct confrontation with Dugu Yan.
As a high explosive elemental mage, Oscar naturally intended to use his advantages to deal with Dugu Yan.
Seeing Oscar take to the skies, Dugu Yan's beautiful eyes flashed: "You think I can't deal with you if you fly high?"
Dugu Yan's legs moved quickly, stepping on the 90degree ice pillar and charging toward the sky. Ma Hongjun, trapped in the ice sculpture, could hear the sound of Dugu Yan's heels on the ice pillar, and he felt an inexplicable sense of nervousness.
As expected, the next moment, Oscar's fiery body surged with flames, and he raised his hand to form a terrifying fireball. His purple third soul ring lit up.
Oscar threw the fireball into the air, and with the release of his third soul skill, the fireball transformed into a gigantic Fire Phoenix that dove down at Dugu Yan.
"Third Soul Skill: Phoenix Piercing Cloud Strike!"
Faced with Oscar's ruthless attack, Dugu Yan didn't choose to dodge. Her fourth soul ring, a black one, lit up.
A dark soul power radiated from her body, and ice blue soul power surged, forming several enormous Chi Dragons that rushed at the Fire Phoenix.
"Fourth Soul Skill: Chi Dragon Dance!"
Dugu Yan's fourth soul ring had already reached the 10,000year level, and it was from the Chi Dragon, one of the most special dragon species. This not only gave her a powerful group attack skill but also imbued her martial soul with ice and poison attributes.
With her 54th level soul power, the ice blue Chi Dragons she released seemed to carry the might of a true dragon.
The Fire Phoenix and the Chi Dragons collided, creating a massive shock wave. Dugu Yan's legs continued to move rapidly, and she quickly approached Oscar, still ascending the ice pillar.
Her fourth soul skill wasn't mainly for attack; its true purpose was to control the battlefield, combining powerful ice and poison attributes.
So, Oscar's Phoenix Piercing Cloud Strike was blocked by Dugu Yan's fourth soul skill, failing to reach the ice pillar.
As Dugu Yan approached quickly, Oscar shaped his hands into claws and struck the ice pillar with two massive fire claw marks aimed at Dugu Yan.
