Chapter 52: Facing the Three Ning Tian Sisters—Wang Dong Swings the Hoe Again!

Observing the changes in the Lan sisters, Huang Chutian, their team captain, felt a deep sense of envy in his heart.

Unable to help himself, he asked, "May I ask how I can join the Holy Fire Cult as well?"

The Lan sisters exchanged a glance.

"We are still in our probation period, so it's not our place to say," Lan Luoluo replied tactfully. "However, since you used to be in Class One as well, perhaps you could go directly to find Yuhao?"

Huang Chutian's expression darkened, and he remained silent.

Not long ago, he had taken the lead in betraying Huo Yuhao, and those mocking words were still fresh in his memory. Besides, now that Instructor Yan had given her warning, would he dare to openly defy it?

The more he thought about it, the more furious he became. The woman he regarded as his private possession was about to be snatched away, yet there was nothing he could do.

How infuriating!!!

...

Huo Yuhao was still unaware that he had been added to someone's blacklist once again.

The three young girls who were their opponents in the second match were rather formidable!

"I know who you are—Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong, and Xiao Xiao!" the red-haired short-haired girl declared loudly. "Wufeng from Freshman Class Nine, twenty-fifth-rank Power Attack System Battle Soul Grandmaster! If you dare to send just one person again this time, you'll definitely lose without a doubt!"

The girl with light green hair said softly, "Nanmen Yun'er, twenty-fourth-rank Agility Attack System Battle Soul Grandmaster."

The final blonde girl stated calmly, "Ning Tian, thirty-first-rank Auxiliary System Instrument Soul Elder."

Wang Dong came to a sudden realization.

So she was a three-ring Soul Elder from the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Clan, capable of boosting others' attributes by forty percent. No wonder Wufeng was being so arrogant.

"Things are rather tricky this time. Do you still insist on fighting three-on-one?" Huo Yuhao asked. "I will provide mental detection sharing; I'll leave the rest to you."

Summoning his Spirit Eyes martial soul and activating his first soul skill, he retreated to the edge of the arena.

[Xiao Xiao: Wang Dong, since she has the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda for support, should we take one each?]

This sudden mental transmission startled Wang Dong.

Since when had Xiao Xiao learned...

[Xiao Xiao: It's just a little trick. I'll have the class monitor teach you later. Focus on the match first. Which one are you going to pick?]

Before Wang Dong could make a choice, Ning Tian on the opposite side had already summoned her Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda, and her first and third soul rings lit up simultaneously.

"The Seven Treasures turn and are glazed; the Seven Treasures have a command: first, might; third, soul!"

Four rays of light merged into the bodies of Wufeng and Nanmen Yun'er respectively. Both of them activated their martial soul avatars and pounced on Wang Dong from both flanks.

They went all-out right from the start!

"Hah! Am I being treated like a soft persimmon?" Wang Dong said, half in anger and half in amusement. "Xiao Xiao, don't interfere; I can handle this!"

Xiao Xiao felt somewhat conflicted and used mental transmission to consult Huo Yuhao.

[Huo Yuhao: Trust him.]

[Xiao Xiao: Fine, then I'll just provide support.]

Xiao Xiao summoned her martial soul, the Nine Phoenix Flute, and her first soul ring lit up.

First Soul Skill: Slow!

Layers of invisible sound waves spread outward, slightly hindering the movements of Wufeng and Nanmen Yun'er.

"The Seven Treasures turn and are glazed; the Seven Treasures have a command: second, dispel!"

Ning Tian's second soul ring emitted two rays of light that entered the bodies of Wufeng and her companion, instantly accelerating their previously slowed-down speed once again.

"Oh?" Wang Dong said in surprise. "The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul—aren't the first seven soul skills fixed attributes?"

No one answered him, as the opponents had already closed in.

Wang Dong summoned the Radiant Goddess Butterfly and soared straight into the sky, dodging the pincer attack of the two girls. Spreading his wings, golden light patterns sprayed out small balls of light that pelted toward Ning Tian in the rear.

Second Soul Skill: Butterfly God's Light!

Nanmen Yun'er, belonging to the Agility Attack System, quickly fell back to defense. Activating her first soul skill, Jade Blade, she slashed apart the first wave of light balls and pulled Ning Tian along to dodge.

Wufeng, meanwhile, leaped high into the air as her two soul rings lit up.

First Soul Skill: Dragon's Fire!

Second Soul Skill: Dragon's Fury!

Her right fist transformed into a flaming dragon claw, striking toward Wang Dong amidst the roar of a dragon!

"Rip—"

Wufeng's clothes burst open first, revealing a graceful figure comparable to a sixteen-year-old girl, stretching the elastic fabric into exaggerated lines.

If this were any ordinary male, he would have been stun-locked to some extent.

Unfortunately, it was Wang Dong.

Wang Dong didn't even use a soul skill; his body spun halfway in the air, and his right leg lashed out like lightning, colliding violently with the dragon claw.

"Bang!"

Wang Dong swayed in the air. As he spun to dissipate the momentum, he channeled that force through his body and unleashed a whip kick with his left leg.

Wufeng swung her claw to counter again. Wang Dong once again spun to absorb the force, borrowed it, and delivered another whip kick!

After three rounds of back-and-forth clashes, Wufeng ran out of stamina and tumbled down from the air.

Wang Dong actively pressed the attack, using the same routine, and the power of his whip kicks grew increasingly stronger.

"Is that a combat technique similar to the Chaotic Wind Hammer Technique?" Ning Tian called out. "Don't get tangled up with him—retreat!"

Wufeng wanted to scream—was this something she could just retreat from whenever she wanted?

As Wang Dong spun back and forth, a current of air locked onto her. If she tried to disengage now, she would undoubtedly take a vicious kick square-on!

Nanmen Yun'er saw her predicament and lunged forward.

Second Soul Skill: Jade Slash!

She locked onto Wang Dong, preventing him from dissipating his momentum.

First Soul Skill: Jade Blade!

Her hands transformed into emerald-green blades, slashing directly at Wang Dong's wings!

Wufeng cooperated by throwing a fierce claw attack, leaving Wang Dong with no time to deal with them separately.

Xiao Xiao appropriately blew her Nine Phoenix Flute, attempting to buy Wang Dong a moment to breathe.

However, Ning Tian had anticipated this; her second soul skill, Dispel Control, landed in advance.

The slowdown effect was neutralized before it could even take effect.

Xiao Xiao stamped her foot in frustration. Damn it!

They had completely guessed their moves!

In contrast, Huo Yuhao stood there calmly, showing no intention of making a move whatsoever.

Wang Dong, currently caught in the pincer attack, moved.

He spread his wings to block the vision of Wufeng and Nanmen Yun'er, abandoned his kicks, and wrapped his fists in dense soul energy to meet the flaming dragon claw.

It seemed as though he was willing to sacrifice defense to take down Wufeng first.

However, the moment before their collision, Wang Dong's hands opened like snakes, latching onto Wufeng's fist. He folded his wings, curled his body into a side roll, and used a twisting motion to fling Wufeng backward—

Straight into the path of Nanmen Yun'er's slash!

Wufeng's flaming dragon claw and the emerald hand-blade were about to collide violently. Caught off guard by their full-force attacks, the two girls could not retract their moves in time and could only desperately try to deflect their strikes.

They narrowly avoided killing each other.

Yet before they could even let out a sigh of relief, their hearts leaped into their throats again!

The buffs on their bodies had vanished!

Could it be...

Panicking, they looked back toward where Ning Tian stood. Wang Dong's wings were crossed like a guillotine against Ning Tian's snow-white neck.

Under these circumstances, Ning Tian certainly could not continue providing support. She waved her hands at Wufeng and Nanmen Yun'er, who were rushing to her rescue.

"This match is our defeat."

Instructor Wang Yan announced the result at the appropriate moment.

Wufeng and Nanmen Yun'er remained silent, only staring fiercely at Wang Dong.

It was so infuriating!

This guy was slippery as an eel.

You couldn't hit him, you couldn't catch him, and the moment you let your guard down, he stole your base!

"That move just now was also the Tai Chi realm of the Holy Fire Cult, you know," Wang Dong said with a beaming smile. "Want to learn? Join the Holy Fire Cult and I'll teach you!"

This stirred a wave of emotion in Ning Tian's heart.

As an auxiliary system soul master and a female to boot, goodness knows how badly she wanted to "toughen up"!

Throughout this duel, aside from the first soul skill at the very beginning, Wang Dong hadn't used a single soul ring for the rest of the match.

That alone was proof of the formidable power of this Tai Chi fist.

Perhaps she should give it a try?

"Hey!"

Wufeng rushed over, roaring—

"Ning Tian has already conceded, why are you still holding onto her?"

"Let her go right now!"
