The power of the explosion caused a huge crater to appear in the stadium. Gravel flew everywhere and spiderweb-like cracks appeared on the ground.
Dust filled the air and severely affected one's vision.
Although the huge impact didn't destroy the defensive soul skills of the five members of the Hongyun Team, it caused the other four to enter a temporary state of dizziness.
In this state of dizziness, their defensive soul skills couldn't be used at full power.
When Linfeng released his doppelganger and rushed towards the Hongyun Team along with the waves, Yunkai and Yu Qiao were already prepared. They grasped the opportunity and finished off Rong Wei and Chen Tianxiang in an instant, eliminating them in less than two seconds.
In such a short period of time, Liu Lin and Zhang Tianxu, who were still in a state of dizziness, had yet to recover. Just as Yunkai and Yu Qiao wanted to follow up with another attack, bolts of lightning continuously struck the two of them.
"Bitch."
Yu Qiao cursed and escaped from the range of the attack. He concealed his figure and disappeared once again.
As for Yunkai, he didn't use any soul skills. Instead, he used spiritual energy to cover his body and quickly dodged.
Yang Ningbing's attack was timely and gave her teammates time to wake up. Very quickly, the two of them recovered from the dizziness and began to be cautious.
"The situation is starting to favor Linfeng's team." Outside the arena, Deng Lun said.
This battle didn't seem to have a winner, and the competition returned to the starting point.
But in fact, two for two, the Hongyun Team was obviously at a disadvantage.
The Hongyun Team seemed to be using the two lightning element as the tactical core, but the ones controlling the field were the eliminated Rong Wei and Chen Tianxiang.
The two of them stood at the back of the formation. One was a healer, while the other was an assassin. The direction of their occupations didn't allow them to have large-scale destructive power.
The two of them refined water-type demon spirits. Although the silver soul skill 'Ocean Wave Impact' that they absorbed didn't have any destructive power, and even if they were attacked, the turbulent water flow would at most wash the opponent away. It wouldn't cause any serious damage to the opponent.
But relying on these two soul skills, the Hongyun Team was able to attack, retreat, and defend. In a situation where the two lightning element members could attack from a distance, they had an absolute advantage.
Now that they had lost two people, it meant that Hongyun's strategy had failed.
Linfeng's team had clearly studied the abilities of each member of the Hongyun Team. Therefore, when faced with the choice of two out of four, Yu Qiao and Yunkai, they did not hesitate and directly eliminated the two seemingly weak healer and assassin.
"Dong Yunan and Yue Mingming are actually not qualified to form a team with Lin Feng and the other two. The difference in strength is a little too big!" a mentor said.
It wasn't that Dong Yunan wasn't strong. He had refined an eighth-grade Siren Woman and was also a super genius among healers. However, compared to Linfeng and Yunkai, there was indeed a gap.
However, she was still alright. As a healer, she could also use water-type soul skills to support Linfeng's attacks. She could be considered passable.
Yue Mingming, on the other hand, was a completely unnecessary tool.
Even if they needed someone to carry a weapon because of Yunkai, why not get a more powerful tool?
In their eyes, Yue Mingming, who was killed in an instant, was just a joke.
At this moment, Bu Zheng's expression was a little unconcealable surprise. "In just two years, he actually learned the ninth-grade movement technique, Thunderous Roar. He can even use it easily under attack interference!"
Thunderous Roar was a movement technique advanced from Lightning Steps.
This was a movement technique that all lightning-type martial artists wanted to learn.
Bu Zheng also knew how to do it, but he had spent five years to master it. Lin Feng, on the other hand, had only used two years.
At that time, he was known as a martial arts freak.
He was a freak.
Then what was Linfeng?
"That clone just now was a little interesting. It wasn't as simple as an illusion!" Deng Lun's eyes revealed a trace of interest.
After the clone was destroyed, hundreds of bubbles actually appeared.
Were these bubbles originally in the clone's body or were they illusions?
This was definitely not something that a soul skill could do.
It should be the effect of two soul skills combined.
However, what was this soul skill?
Furthermore, the power of this explosion was a little too strong.
Although it didn't directly destroy Yang Ningbing and the rest's defenses, the final kill was completed by Yunkai and Yu Qiao.
However, one had to know that Linfeng's target was five people. The power of the explosion was already spread out. If it was a close distance, facing one person, no one would be able to block it.
"Do you guys know of Linfeng's other soul skills?"
Deng Lun asked the teacher beside him.
He was very curious about Linfeng's soul skills.
His fourth soul skill was a purple-gold soul skill, and it was a rare cloning soul skill. The first three soul skills should also be gold-colored soul skills.
"I don't know."
The teacher shook his head. Linfeng disappeared for a year and a half, and the only soul skill that was announced was the cloning soul skill.
"It seems that we have underestimated him. His innate ability to blow bubbles isn't simple. Not only does it have the dual attributes of lightning and water, but it also has the characteristics of an explosion. It seems that the demon spirit he refined is indeed not simple!"
Deng Lun was clearly very interested in Linfeng's bubbles. He analyzed, "When the bubbles burst, not only does it have the damage and paralysis of lightning, it also has the impact of an explosion. If he can absorb a poison-type soul skill, the moment it explodes, it will release poison. Just thinking about it makes me feel excited."
"Not just any demon spirit can absorb a poison-type soul skill." Bu Zheng said.
Deng Lun smiled. "He's a monster. He can absorb a purple-gold soul skill with only his fourth soul skill. A poison-type soul skill shouldn't be too much of a problem."
After saying that, he looked at the silent Yang Qing and asked, "Yang Qing, how is it? How do Yunkai and Linfeng compare to the geniuses of Shang Jing?"
Yang Qing retracted her gaze. She was a woman of few words. "Very strong."
Deng Lun smiled. To be praised by the proud Yang Qing, it was enough to prove the strength of Linfeng and Yunkai.
"Don't say that. When we were fighting just now, I felt that you guys were quite similar."
Deng Lun smiled. His words caused Yang Qing's expression to change slightly, but she quickly recovered. However, it was still noticed by Bu Zheng, and a trace of doubt flashed through his eyes.
.....
In the air, Yang Ningbing flapped her wings and dodged the attacks of the flying swords.
She wanted to meet up with her teammates, but there were flying swords all around her, so she didn't dare to act rashly.
Although her fourth soul skill, the gold-colored 'Lightning Shield', could block the attacks of the flying swords, if she used it in the air, it would cover her entire body and consume a lot of soul power.
Therefore, she could only keep dodging.
Yunkai's Imperial Sword Technique also consumed a lot of soul power. Yunkai's attributes and soul skills were also faintly restrained by Yang Ningbing's lightning technique. Seeing this, Linfeng said, "Akai, go deal with the others. Leave her to me."
Yang Ningbing saw the flying swords disperse and heaved a sigh of relief. Yunkai's Imperial Sword Technique made her flying advantage disappear, giving her a lot of pressure.
Gently flapping her wings and looking down at Linfeng, Yang Ningbing's eyes were a little complicated.
Two years ago, Linfeng had just entered university, and she was already in her third year. She was also the Deputy Head of the Combat Department. The difference in strength and status between the two was huge.
She had once thought that with Linfeng's talent and cultivation, he would become her opponent one day. However, she didn't expect this day to come so quickly.
Furthermore, he was competing with her for the most important opportunity of his life.
If he failed, it would affect his life.
At this moment, many thoughts flashed through Yang Ningbing's mind. The surface of her body suddenly glowed with purple light. The electric arcs were like small snakes that were slithering around her body. The young girl flapped her wings in mid-air and waved her white bone staff.
"Rumble!"
The purplish-red lightning descended from the sky like a lightning dragon. Wherever the lightning dragon passed, the space seemed to be distorted by its violent strength. When it neared Linfeng, it was accompanied by a deafening explosion. The lightning dragon split into two and turned into a dragon claw that grabbed at Linfeng.
Silver Soul Skill: Thunderous Dragon Claw.
Yang Ningbing knew that Linfeng had a soul skill that could absorb lightning. Therefore, she didn't use a normal attack to test the waters. Instead, she used her second soul skill.
Feeling the violent strength in the sky, Linfeng's feet flickered with silver light. A low thunderous sound rang out, and Linfeng's body seemed to become illusory as he appeared ten meters away.
In the face of such a powerful offensive soul skill, Linfeng could only dodge, even if he cultivated a god-tier soul skill like the Dragonfish Transformation.
Lightning struck continuously as Linfeng fled. Even with his speed, he was still struck by lightning. Linfeng didn't absorb any defensive soul skills and could only rely on spiritual power. However, in the face of the explosive lightning, his spiritual power couldn't resist at all. His body trembled slightly as the piercing pain was unbearable.
If not for Linfeng's strong resistance to lightning, he would have fallen to the ground already.
"Rank nine martial skill, Thundercry."
Yang Ningbing's eyes were filled with shock. She had tried this martial skill before, but she had no choice but to give up. A rank nine martial skill was far from what she could learn now. However, she didn't expect Linfeng to be able to learn it.
"Fifth soul skill, Heavenly Lightning Sword."
Yang Ningbing's eyes were cold. She opened her hands and the white bone staff floated in the air. The egg-sized lightning crystal emitted a resplendent light. Following the release of her soul skill, a three-meter-long lightning sword descended from the sky and pierced towards Linfeng at an extremely fast speed.
Linfeng dodged, and the lightning sword crashed to the ground, sending rubble flying. At the same time, the other four lightning swords fell one after another. Violent lightning scattered in all directions, forming a lightning barrier through the sword hilts. Linfeng was trapped and couldn't escape, nor was he able to break free.
Linfeng stood in his original position within the formation. The lightning transformed into chains that constantly whipped his body. The spiritual power cloak only lasted for a few seconds before it dissipated. Linfeng's skin was soon split open by the lightning.
