Wang Qiu'er's Golden Dragon martial soul represented the pinnacle of strength, simulated from a trace of Golden Dragon King bloodline in her body.
Even if just simulated, the Golden Dragon King was half the Dragon God, the peak of dragonkind. Of course, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon was no match.
"Such a soul ring configuration!" Qian Renxue's pupils contracted sharply. Seeing Wang Qiu'er's rings, she recalled the terrifying Black March 7th seen at the contamination point.
Not just Qian Renxue—Yu Tianlong and others were also shocked.
They were stunned not just by the soul rings, but by the suppression of their own bloodlines and spirits before Wang Qiu'er.
"She's mine. You all, scram!" Wang Qiu'er pointed the Golden Dragon Spear at Ye Lingling, then looked coldly at Yu Tianlong and the others, her tone utterly domineering.
At her words, Ye Guyi, Meng Hongchen, Xiao Hongchen released their soul rings—each a Soul King. Plus three Soul Ancestors like Lan Susu, their aura fully suppressed Yu Tianlong's group.
"Huh?" Seeing Ye Guyi release her martial soul, Hu Liena's eyes widened, then turned oddly to Qian Renxue.
She didn't know much about Qian Renxue, but knew she was of the Angel Clan and not on good terms with their teacher, though she was a strong ace.
But angel martial souls only existed in the Angel Clan of Spirit Hall.
Now, another team had an angel martial soul, and not just any angel—the Holy Angel, second only to the Seraphim.
"You want us to leave? Let's see if you have the strength!" Yu Tianlong's eyes blazed with fighting spirit. Thunder roared as he activated "Thunder Hell."
Blue lightning turned instantly black, its power and destruction surging to a new level.
The ground shattered under the force. Original content can be found at N0v3l.Fiɾe.net
Yu Tianlong shot forward like black lightning toward Wang Qiu'er.
Wang Qiu'er didn't back down. Her Golden Dragon Spear smashed down with terrifying force, distorting the air with sharp howls.
"Boss!" Xing Yan looked troubled.
The situation was clearly against them, but Yu Tianlong was blinded by anger.
He was never one to swallow his pride; once provoked, he'd go all-in.
"Everyone, attack!" With no choice, Xing Yan led his team into battle.
His body was covered in red scales, crimson wings unfurled, and he soared into the air.
Raising his hands, a massive fireball formed, radiating intense heat.
"Hmph!" Ye Guyi just snorted.
Her Holy Sword shone with platinum light, a massive sword beam slicing toward Xing Yan.
With a deafening explosion, the battlefield erupted.
Thunder, holy light, flames, and dragon roars intertwined, composing a symphony of fierce combat.
"Captain, let's get out of here!" Yu Feng, having discreetly picked up the revival chips, urged Yu Tianheng to escape.
Whether Heaven Dragon Sect or St. Freya Academy Team 2, their strength filled him with despair.
He was a main team member of Heaven Dou, always proud—one of the elite young talents in the empire.
But now, he doubted his strength deeply.
"I'm afraid we can't leave," Yu Tianheng smiled bitterly, motioning to the blue hair surrounding them.
He saw the twin girls, not fighting, just watching them closely, and felt a wave of hopelessness.
But giving up so easily would disgrace Heaven Dou Imperial Academy.
After all, countless bigwigs were watching—even Emperor Xue Ye.
Retreat would ruin their image.
They could lose, be eliminated, but never surrender.
"Tianheng, they're just two Soul Ancestors—let's break through!" Dugu Yan was equally frustrated.
As Poison Douluo's granddaughter, she'd never been humiliated .
"Right!" Yu Tianheng nodded firmly.
Rather than wait to be dealt with, they'd fight now.
"Lonely Goose Restless!"
"Ghost Leopard Clone!"
They launched their spirit abilities at Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo.
The twins glanced at each other, a sly smile in their eyes.
They quickly clasped hands, soul power fusing together.
Hu Liena, watching from the shadows, was shocked.
This scene, this move—she thought of her own Martial Fusion with her brother Xie Yue.
"Martial Fusion—Heavenly Net!"
As expected, the twins used their Martial Fusion.
They weren't hiding their strength—they wanted to stand out, so others wouldn't see them as mere pretty faces.
With the boost from the fusion, their blue hair's strength and quantity soared, forming a living net.
Neither Yu Tianheng's lightning, nor Dugu Yan's poison, nor Yu Feng's wind could break it.
Soon, Yu Tianheng and the others were wrapped tightly into giant cocoons, only their heads exposed.
The only exception was Ye Lingling.
"Oh my, you're so pitiful. How about joining us? You've seen our strength—do you want to watch your friends be eliminated so easily?"
Lan Ruoruo, who also hadn't fought, walked up to Ye Lingling, lifting her chin flirtatiously.
Coming from the Commoner Alliance and influenced by Shangguan Weier, Lan Ruoruo had a bit of a bad girl vibe.
She pressed close, hands gliding gently over Ye Lingling, making her blush furiously.
Lan Ruoruo tried to break down Ye Lingling's mental defenses this way.
"Don't accept, Lingling!" Dugu Yan glared at Lan Ruoruo, furious at her friend being teased, even if the other was a beautiful girl.
"I can agree, but you must help us achieve a higher placement," Ye Lingling glanced at the dominant Wang Qiu'er and her team, quickly deciding.
Ye Lingling appeared cold and gentle, but was actually passionate and strong-willed inside.
She seemed indecisive, but always had her own ideas—just didn't show them.
In this survival contest, aside from the top rewards, even high rankings brought consolation prizes—after the event, teams could choose some items to bring out of the simulation.
Whether it was Invincible Golden Body or Teleport Rings, these were rare life-saving soul tools in the real world.
She knew they couldn't hope for the top prizes, but as long as Heaven Dou could place well, they could trade for those precious items.
Since they valued her power so much, she'd use it to bargain, at least ensuring her team survived until the end and got enough points for rewards.
She could tell St. Freya Team 2 was strong—teaming up was a clear win.
As for pride, after being beaten by Yu Tianlong, and then subdued by the twins' fusion, it was long gone.
If pride couldn't be saved, she'd at least get some benefit.
Elsewhere, seeing Heaven Dragon Sect suppressed, Hu Liena and others grew restless.
They wanted the high-level supplies and Ye Lingling too.
Qian Renxue knew that having a Nine-Hearted Begonia healer was a huge advantage.
It was like having an extra life—crucial for winning.
After all, in this battle royale, there would be countless fights and injuries.
But with a healer, the team could always stay at peak condition.
