A sword glow over a foot long unite but not disprse, causing a rapid series of puff-puff sounds to burst through the air.
Ice Refraction—this was Meng Hongchen's third soul skill. It allowed her to freely change positions through light and shadow refraction on the mirrored ice discs she released.
Although it was not yet a powerful soul skill like instant teleportation, when used in actual combat in coordination with her full set of soul-guidance armor, it was extremely practical.
Meng Hongchen's soul skill was indeed peculiar, but Huo Yuhao showed not the slightest panic. He turned around, dragon claws transforming into existence, sharp talons instantly sketching out大片金光, clashing head-on with the sword glow thrust by the opponent's slender sword.
"Bang—!"
The shockwave of light erupted across the competition platform. Meng Hongchen's slender sword truly lived up to its status as a sixth-level soul tool—after a single exchange, it was not shattered by Huo Yuhao's dragon claws.
However, upon closer inspection, numerous fine cracks had already appeared on it.
Clearly, if there were another strike, it would definitely be shattered by Huo Yuhao's dragon claws!
Failing to land the blow, Meng Hongchen quickly retreated. Huo Yuhao's strength was indeed formidable—she could no longer withstand him in a direct clash.
Her figure flickered again. Using Ice Refraction, Meng Hongchen changed positions once more.
She needed to wait!
Wait for an opportunity!
Wait for the toxins inside Huo Yuhao's body to take effect. She firmly believed that as time passed, the poison within Huo Yuhao would inevitably erupt!
The final victor would definitely be her!
The audience below the dueling platform was dazzled by the fight. Ear-piercing explosions rang out continuously.
Huo Yuhao's strength was terrifying, and his speed was not slow either, but after all, he was only using the second martial soul with a single soul ring.
Against Meng Hongchen—boosted by a full set of sixth-level soul tools and the Ice Refraction soul skill—the battle remained locked in a stalemate.
Every time Huo Yuhao's attack arrived, Meng Hongchen would directly evade it through Ice Refraction.
She dragged out the fight, refusing to engage him head-on.
After all, if she were to clash directly with Huo Yuhao—even if he only used his second martial soul—she would still not be his opponent.
Meng Hongchen stubbornly avoided frontal exchanges, slippery to the extreme.
Watching Meng Hongchen continue to evade, Huo Yuhao finally activated a soul skill, preparing to end the fight outright.
Originally, he wanted to use Dragon's Fury, but fearing that a single strike might send Meng Hongchen straight to her death, he ultimately switched to one of the Ice Empress's soul skills instead.
"Ice Emperor's Rage!"
A terrifying aura instantly enveloped everything on the competition platform. Everything around them seemed about to be swept away by extreme cold!
Is this the final strike?
A cold smile appeared at the corner of Meng Hongchen's mouth as a streak of golden light instantly lit up.
Clearly, Meng Hongchen believed this to be Huo Yuhao's final killing move!
She naturally couldn't withstand such terrifying power. With a flash of golden light, the attack coming straight at her directly missed!
Meng Hongchen reappeared at the edge of the platform, gasping heavily.
"What a terrifying blow…"
Her face was deathly pale, lingering fear still gripping her heart.
The range of Huo Yuhao's attack had been far too vast. If she had tried to take it head-on, Meng Hongchen felt that even if she didn't die, she would have been severely injured!
What she didn't know was that this was already Huo Yuhao's weakest large-scale attack.
And it was one he had carefully chosen.
The golden light that had just flashed over Meng Hongchen's body belonged to a seventh-level soul tool.
Its name was the Ring of Instant Teleportation.
It could only be used once per day and allowed teleportation within a hundred-meter range.
Among seventh-level soul tools, it was hailed as a miracle.
With it, in many situations, it was equivalent to possessing a second life.
As Huo Yuhao's attack missed, a victorious smile appeared on Meng Hongchen's face.
The opportunity she had been waiting for had finally arrived!
And at this very moment, her fifth soul ring finally shone with dazzling brilliance.
Her delicate body soared into the air, spinning violently, her entire form transforming into a vortex that charged straight toward Huo Yuhao!
Tiansha Douluo had already swiftly arrived not far from their battlefield, prepared to end the match at any moment.
At the center of the ice-blue vortex, red light faintly appeared. That faint red glow actually gave off a scorching sensation.
It was as if blazing flames were burning within a vortex of ice.
This was the strongest attack Meng Hongchen could currently unleash—Icefire Poison Dragon Drill.
It was the perfect fusion of a ten-thousand-year soul skill and a sixth-level soul tool. Its power was already sufficient to rival the soul skills of a Soul Emperor-level expert.
Unleashing such a terrifying attack at this moment made it clear—she had no intention of giving Huo Yuhao even the slightest chance.
However, what Meng Hongchen failed to notice was that there was not the slightest hint of fear on Huo Yuhao's face.
"Clang!"
A deafening explosion rang out.
Huo Yuhao's arm suddenly flared with light, dazzling golden radiance bursting forth incessantly.
"Dragon's Fury!"
Huo Yuhao's attack instantly triggered the defensive soul tools on Meng Hongchen's body. Under their protection, she felt the soul power within her body pour out wildly.
That terrifying attack seemed intent on utterly destroying Meng Hongchen—earth-shaking in its might!
"We concede!"
The previously unconscious team leader of the Sun Moon team had awakened. His urgent shout rang out as a streak of starlight descended from the heavens, protecting Meng Hongchen's body.
Tiansha Douluo had made his move!
Even Tiansha Douluo felt pressure from Huo Yuhao's strike. Fortunately, with strength comparable to a Super Douluo, he managed to block it in the end.
Looking at Huo Yuhao, shock filled Tiansha Douluo's heart as well.
"What a terrifying attack…"
…
On the other side.
In just this brief span of time, the sixth-level soul-guidance armor on Meng Hongchen's body had already been completely scrapped.
If the team leader's shout had come even a second later—at most one more second—once the armor shattered, Meng Hongchen would likely have been killed by Huo Yuhao!
What is strength?
This is absolute strength!
Huo Yuhao once again showed everyone what it meant to be Shrek Academy's number-one prodigy!
Even after the light of Dragon's Fury completely dissipated, Meng Hongchen was still shaken to the core.
She could clearly feel just how close she had come to death in that short moment.
The Bulwark Wall soul tool on her body had been completely destroyed, and the core array of her armor was already damaged.
This precious sixth-level soul tool had been ruined. The only things left intact were the pair of slender swords.
Those slender swords filled with cracks…
"Pfft!"
Meng Hongchen spat out a mouthful of blood, her body swaying unsteadily.
She used her slender sword to support herself, barely preventing herself from collapsing.
As Meng Hongchen withdrew from the stage, everyone began anticipating who would be sent up next.
But at that moment, Tiansha Douluo Huang Jinxi on the platform loudly announced:
"After confirmation by this referee, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy abandons the remaining individual matches. This round is conceded!"
"Shrek Academy wins the individual competition!"
