Chapter 588 The Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring Shocks the Entire Audience
Raven couldn't help but glare at her upon hearing this:
"Yue'er, don't underestimate your opponent. Although they are weak, they have their own trump cards. Have you forgotten what Brother Ye said?"
Ye Qifeng had already revealed Canghui Academy's trump card to them in advance, and this trump card was related to the gem martial souls of the seven students of Canghui Academy.
Thanks to the extensibility and uniqueness of their gemstone martial souls, the seven students from Canghui Academy were able to coordinate perfectly and unleash the Seven-in-One Fusion Technique—Seven Asura Illusions.
After being scolded by Raven, Jin Yue'er stuck out her tongue sheepishly and quickly restrained her arrogance. But what she said was indeed the truth. After all, her strength was undeniable, and she had the right to be arrogant.
"In this battle, we strive for a swift victory and must not allow them to reveal their trump cards."
Raven withdrew her gaze, looked around at her sisters, and said in a slightly serious tone:
"However, I guess they won't reveal their trump cards so easily in this match, otherwise their later matches will be tough."
After speaking, she seemed to remember something, looked at Jin Yue'er, Zhu Zhuqing, and Bai Chenxiang, and then gave them a word of advice:
"Oh, right, when you guys make your move, remember to be careful. Just knock them out, don't cause any serious injuries or anything like that. After all, our Second Team isn't some trash team like the Shrek Seven Devils, we can't afford to lose face like that."
Upon hearing this, Jin Yue'er, Zhu Zhuqing, and Bai Chenxiang all nodded in unison.
"clear."
…………
With more than half of the one minute allotted for everyone to activate their martial souls already gone, the audience's attention was largely drawn to the dazzling gem martial souls and spirit rings of the seven students from Canghui Academy.
The Spirit Hall's second team finally decided on the representatives for this battle: three advanced Spirit Masters, Jin Yue'er, Zhu Zhuqing, and Bai Chenxiang.
As for Raven, Fengxian, Yelan, and Xiaomingyue, they stood by and watched from the sidelines.
As the competition was about to begin, Jin Yue'er, Zhu Zhuqing, and Bai Chenxiang calmly stepped out of the group and stood at the front, looking calmly at the Canghui Academy team opposite them.
Upon seeing the sudden change in the formation of the Spirit Hall's second team, the seven students from Canghui Academy exchanged glances and became serious. What they then witnessed was the most shocking scene of their lives.
As the three uniquely beautiful girls on the other side marched out together, they released their martial spirits and completed the martial spirit possession process. Their speed was so fast that no one could even see what their martial spirits looked like.
However, once a martial spirit is attached to a body, the changes it brings to the physical form are real.
The blonde girl, dressed in a gold women's fitted dress and wearing a faint smile, suddenly had her eyes turn into a pair of golden vertical pupils.
At the same time, the blonde girl's exposed skin on her cheeks, neck, and arms was covered with a layer of fine scales, and a long, illusory golden crocodile tail grew out of thin air behind her, transforming her into a humanoid crocodile woman.
It is obvious that the blonde girl's martial soul is a relatively rare crocodile martial soul.
To the left of the blonde girl, a tall, voluptuous, and extremely voluptuous black-haired girl, dressed in a black tight leather outfit and wearing black high heels, possessed a martial spirit. Her eyes changed color simultaneously, with her left eye becoming dark green and her right eye becoming clear blue. Sharp cat claws flicked out from her ten fingers.
At the same time, a pair of strange wings grew from the back of the black-haired girl, but instead of feathers, the wings were covered with extremely soft down.
The seven contestants from Canghui Academy couldn't figure out the origin of the black-haired girl's martial spirit; they only knew it was definitely related to felines.
After all, the pair of cat ears that suddenly grew on her head and the cat tail behind her rear end couldn't be faked.
As for the girl to the right of the blonde girl, who was wearing a light purple leather jacket and shorts that reached her hips, with high-heeled leather boots and her hair tied in two small ponytails, her figure did not change as much as the previous two.
But behind her, just like the black-haired girl, grew a pair of illusory wings. The wings were golden, covered with feathers, with perfect lines, and a wingspan of up to three meters, as if they were born to soar through the heavens.
Clearly, the light purple-haired girl's martial soul is a bird-type martial soul. The specific attack method is unknown, but it is definitely one of the agility-type martial souls.
Being able to possess a martial soul, the three girls who suddenly stood out all naturally possessed beast martial souls.
However, the students of the Canghui Academy team could not recognize their origins or their specific names.
Even Ning Fengzhi, the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School who had made great achievements in the study of martial soul theory, and Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang, who had stolen a lot of martial soul theory knowledge from the Spirit Hall's archives, could not immediately tell what their martial souls were.
After all, Jin Yue'er, Zhu Zhuqing, and Bai Chenxiang had all consumed celestial herbs, and their martial souls had all evolved. Their martial soul forms had undergone fundamental changes to varying degrees, resulting in a certain gap compared to their original forms.
Ning Fengzhi and Yu Xiaogang didn't realize it immediately, not because they were unskilled or lacked knowledge, but simply because they hadn't expected it.
If given some time, and combined with the information they possess, they could probably deduce something from it.
After a moment's thought, and with Sword Douluo's secret telepathic reminder, Ning Fengzhi quickly guessed Jin Yue'er's identity and recognized the origin of her martial soul.
After all, Sword Douluo had fought against Golden Crocodile Douluo before and had a certain understanding of Golden Crocodile Douluo's martial soul, even a deep impression of it. Therefore, he could tell at a glance that Jin Yue'er's martial soul and Golden Crocodile Douluo's martial soul were of the same origin.
Reminded by Sword Douluo, Ning Fengzhi, drawing upon his knowledge of martial spirit theory, suddenly came up with a bold guess—
Jin Yue'er is likely a descendant of Golden Crocodile Douluo, inheriting his martial soul, the Golden Crocodile King, a top-tier martial soul surpassing even the most powerful ones.
Besides roughly discerning Jin Yue'er's identity and the origin of her martial soul, Ning Fengzhi also knew Zhu Zhuqing's identity and martial soul, even the specific form and attributes of her martial soul.
But the pair of wings on her back left Ning Fengzhi somewhat puzzled.
In his memory, the Netherworld Cat, the inherited martial soul of the Zhu family of the Netherworld Grand Duke's Mansion in the Star Luo Empire, may have subtle differences in its physical form and color, but it does not seem to have wings.
Clearly, her martial soul has undergone some kind of mutation, which explains why her martial soul has developed wings, a change that is not usually surprising.
This is probably related to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, a peerless treasure in Sunset Forest that has fallen into the hands of the Spirit Hall. The immortal herbs that grow there may possess such power.
Ning Fengzhi pondered silently, his mood slightly heavy.
As for Bai Chenxiang's martial soul, he had no clue whatsoever and had no idea where it came from. At least in his memory, he had never seen such a peculiar existence. Although there were similar martial souls, they were vastly different.
Ning Fengzhi was quite displeased. This situation, which was beyond his control and beyond his understanding, made his mood sink little by little.
…………
Ning Fengzhi was a little confused about the martial souls of Jin Yue'er, Zhu Zhuqing, and Bai Chenxiang.
Meanwhile, in the spectator stands where the Shrek team was, Yu Xiaogang was even more confused, and what he saw was clearly much more superficial than what Ning Fengzhi had seen.
"Master, can you tell what the martial spirits of those three are?"
At this moment, Qin Ming, who was sitting next to Yu Xiaogang, suddenly asked a question.
As soon as Qin Ming spoke, the Shrek Seven Devils immediately turned their eyes to Yu Xiaogang, their gazes filled with a thirst for knowledge.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, Yu Xiaogang felt extremely embarrassed. To be honest, apart from knowing that Zhu Zhuqing's martial soul was the Netherworld Cat, he didn't really understand what the other two girls' martial souls were.
Despite the awkwardness, Yu Xiaogang pretended to ponder for a while before coughing and speaking confidently to everyone:
"According to the information provided by Mu Bai, the black-haired girl is named Zhu Zhuqing, a direct descendant of the Zhu family of the Netherworld Grand Duke's Mansion in the Star Luo Empire, and her martial soul is naturally the Netherworld Spirit Cat."
"But, Master," Ning Rongrong suddenly interrupted him at this moment:
"As far as I know, the Netherworld Cat martial soul doesn't have wings, right? If her martial soul is the Netherworld Cat, then why does she have a pair of wings on her back?"
Ning Rongrong's two sudden questions caused Yu Xiaogang, who was talking non-stop, to choke for a moment. A hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes as he glanced at her indifferently, then coughed:
"There is no doubt that her martial soul is the Netherworld Cat, and Mu Bai can testify to that."
Dai Mubai nodded at the right moment and briefly described the characteristics of the Netherworld Cat Martial Soul to everyone.
Seeing this, Yu Xiaogang gave Dai Mubai a satisfied smile, and then continued the conversation:
"As for why a pair of wings appeared on her back after she was possessed by her martial spirit..."
"I think it must be due to some kind of extraordinary encounter that caused the martial soul to mutate."
A look of sudden realization appeared on everyone's faces.
Qin Ming asked again:
"What are the martial souls of the other two?"
"As for the martial souls of the other two..." Yu Xiaogang rubbed his chin.
"Judging from the changes in their forms after their martial souls were attached, one of them has a martial soul that looks like a crocodile or a lizard, while the other one's martial soul is clearly some kind of bird martial soul."
"But we'll have to wait and see what kind of martial soul they have to develop to find out."
To be honest, the three girls from the Spirit Hall's second team released their spirits and completed their spirit possession too quickly. With Yu Xiaogang's eyesight at the level of a level 29 Great Spirit Master, he didn't even have time to see the complete form of their spirits.
However, based solely on the changes in their physical form after possession, he could not fully discern what their martial spirit was, and thus could only give a vague answer.
"Teacher, are you also unsure what their martial spirits are?"
It was Tang San who asked the question, and he seemed somewhat surprised, which made Yu Xiaogang feel a little embarrassed.
How embarrassing it must be for him, the number one master of martial spirit theory and Tang San's teacher, to not know the answer to the question his disciple asked.
"Human strength has its limits. The martial spirits in Douluo Continent are incredibly diverse, and I don't recognize them all."
Yu Xiaogang had to explain, but after he finished, he put on his masterly airs and added, forcing himself to speak:
"However, I already have some clues. As long as they use their martial soul abilities and soul ring skills, I will be able to figure out what their martial souls are."
…………
"Master, look at their spirit rings."
Just then, Ma Hongjun, who had been giving the seven members of the Spirit Hall's second team a lewd look, suddenly raised his chubby hand, pointed towards the main central arena, and exclaimed in surprise.
As they were talking, Yu Xiaogang, Qin Ming, and the others noticed that the arena, which had been filled with applause and cheers just moments before, was now completely silent.
The entire Heaven Dou Arena seemed to be silenced by a mysterious force, leaving almost everyone stunned and speechless.
Following the direction indicated by Ma Hongjun, the Shrek Academy members witnessed a scene that shocked and stunned them. Yu Xiaogang even stood up abruptly from his seat.
When the Shrek Academy students' gazes fell on Jin Yue'er, Zhu Zhuqing, and Bai Chenxiang from the Spirit Hall's second team, the quiet audience finally broke the silence.
A chorus of astonishment erupted from the audience.
The martial spirit possession of Jin Yue'er, Zhu Zhuqing, and Bai Chenxiang brought a strong visual shock, but this was not the most surprising thing.
What surprised, and even horrified, the audience the most was the four spirit rings that appeared on them. Just like Tang San in the Shrek Seven Devils team, they all had two yellow, one purple, and one black spirit rings.
Black, ten-thousand-year fourth spirit ring, yet another ten-thousand-year fourth spirit ring, and there are three of them appearing at once, all in the same team.
wow——
Not only in the audience seats, but also on the VIP stage, there were gasps of surprise.
Who would have thought that in the preliminary rounds of the Elite Soul Master Tournament, they would see three ten-thousand-year soul rings appear on the competition stage at the same time.
The visual impact of this event far surpasses the shock Tang San delivered to everyone in the first preliminary match of yesterday's opening ceremony; in fact, the two are completely incomparable.
Ning Fengzhi was somewhat unable to control his emotions; the dough trembled violently, and his usual gentle and refined demeanor vanished, replaced by a serious and somber expression.
"I thought it was already surprising enough that Tang San in the Shrek Seven Devils team had a ten-thousand-year fourth spirit ring, but I didn't expect the Spirit Hall team to be even more exaggerated, actually producing three ten-thousand-year fourth spirit rings at once."
"This really surprised me."
"As expected of the Spirit Hall's work, isn't it? Heh, truly impressive."
