Chapter 1252: Chapter 1252: Qian Lei Fights Again

At this moment, witnessing Qian Lei demonstrating his divine power and defeating Ling Yumo—a strong contender of the Shrek Seven Monsters, who possesses Twin Martial Souls and has perfectly fused her Martial Soul Fusion Skill with her Martial Soul True Body—her smile is unmistakable. She knows that her disciple’s Martial Soul has truly matured.

The Sea God Pavilion Master slightly nods her head, equally astonished. The arrangement for today’s challenge was deliberately orchestrated by her. It’s not easy to become one of the Shrek Seven Monsters. The first thing to earn is the approval of the entire academy. Every student dreams of being one of the Shrek Seven Monsters, and for this goal, all inner court disciples have given their utmost effort.

The academy can grant this title to Lan Xuanyu and his team due to their merits, but whether they can keep the title depends on themselves.

About this, the Sea God Pavilion Master is quite confident, after all, Lan Xuanyu is the son of Tang Wulin and Gu Yuena. Moreover, as the Sea God Pavilion Master, one of the top figures in the Federation today, she has the privilege to watch that highly confidential video. Therefore, she already knows the improved strength of Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu, which is why she set such a knockout competition.

She believes that with the current combination of Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu, as long as other members can block two or three opponents, and they take care of finishing the rest, there is a high chance they could retain the title of Shrek Seven Monsters.

However, to her surprise, the first to compete, Qian Lei, who wasn’t particularly outstanding even back in the outer court, erupted with such immense strength. He decisively defeated Ling Yumo, who was highly regarded among the inner court disciples. This is pure strength, especially since he has just entered the realm of Titled Douluo and is not even a Super Douluo yet.

Ling Yumo is a top figure in the inner court, not just any Super Douluo, but also with Twin Martial Souls. She is almost guaranteed to achieve godhood in the future.

But she lost, although it was due to a lack of understanding of her opponent. Yet, similarly, Qian Lei did not know much about Ling Yumo either!

Gaining the upper hand, the Shrek Seven Monsters secured the victory of the first match, while the inner court still has six more contenders to send out.

“Next match. Inner court disciple to come forth,” spoke the Sea God Pavilion Master in a firm tone.

Almost without pause, as soon as her words fell, a person from the inner court stepped forward.

It was a lean student, about 1.8 meters tall, with a slender build and short hair that gave off a very spirited look. His eyes were bright and spirited. After flashing into the arena, he nodded at Qian Lei and said, “Tian Zefeng, at your service.”

“Please go ahead, senior,” Qian Lei, with no intention to delay, gestured for Tian Zefeng to proceed.

In the next instant, Tian Zefeng moved, the air around him seemed to compress suddenly, and then he launched forward at a speed akin to teleporting.

With a “clang,” bright golden light shone from Qian Lei, his third Soul Skill had already been activated when he spoke. Golden hair burst forth from his body, growing in size, blocking Tian Zefeng’s instantaneous assault.

However, with that very strike, Qian Lei was blown away.

In the air, a few strands of golden hair drifted, evidently sliced.

Tian Zefeng paused slightly on the spot, and only then everyone saw that in his hand appeared a dagger, a crystal-clear dagger that looked just like a crystal. On his body, lined up were eight black and one red Soul Rings—a formidable presence with a hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring.

Tian Zefeng! Information about this senior flashed instantly in Lan Xuanyu’s mind.

Tian Zefeng, who had been in the Inner Court for longer than Ling Yumo, was also a Super Douluo. Known as the number one agile-attack class Battle Soul Master among the inner court disciples, he possessed the Martial Soul Air-Condensing Dagger. The Condensation Dagger endowed him with the ability to manipulate air, allowing him to unleash unimaginable speed and destructive power.

The stab he had just made seemed simple, but it was the culmination of ripping the air into hundreds of cracks that finally consolidated into a single explosion.

Qian Lei’s waist was now marked with a bloodstain, and a patch of his golden fur had been sliced off. Even the defensive power of the Golden Behemoth could not withstand that strike from the Condensation Dagger.

The agile-attack class is known for its speed and momentary explosion ability, showing just how fierce Tian Zefeng’s attack was.

However, the defense of the Golden Behemoth was indeed strong. Generally, the direct-attack class could restrain the agile-attack class to some extent. The main reason they chose Tian Zefeng to go on second was primarily to prevent Qian Lei from summoning the Behemoth Legion. With Tian Zefeng’s speed, Qian Lei had no chance to continue summoning in front of him. Moreover, the inner court disciples speculated that Qian Lei’s Soul Power was likely running low. Soul Masters with a soul core recover very quickly, so to prevent him from regaining power, they needed to defeat him as swiftly as possible. Thus, Tian Zefeng was chosen to face Qian Lei, utilizing extreme speed to break through his defense, giving him no chance to breathe.

“Dang, dang, dang!” Tian Zefeng was incredibly fast, almost akin to teleporting.

In the air, bursts of air exploding sounds continued as Qian Lei was repeatedly struck by the dagger. He could only wave his arms, trying to protect his vitals. Meanwhile, he boosted his bloodline power to the maximum to enhance his physical defense.

Pieces of golden hair flew about, and Qian Lei was like a large ship continuously struck by impacts.

Multiple wounds appeared on his body, and he was struck off balance, unable to capture his opponent’s trajectory.

Yet, even so, everyone present felt a tremendous shock witnessing this scene. Was his defense too strong?

Tian Zefeng’s destructive power was formidable, owning a hundred-thousand-year soul ring with Soul Power reaching level 97, and he was not far from level 98.

It’s relatively more challenging for an agile-attack class Battle Soul Master to break through to God Rank compared to the direct-attack and control classes. But his breakthrough to God Rank was almost a certainty in the future. He was still under thirty this year. He was also a strong contender among the Shrek Seven Monsters. In the aspect of the agile-attack class, no one could surpass him.

The Martial Soul Air-Condensing Dagger was already a unique existence. Although it had appeared in history, no one had been able to cultivate it to the extreme like Tian Zefeng.

He explored on his own, using the Condensation Dagger as a basis, he cultivated a set of combat techniques using space cracks. Cutting through space at high speed with the Condensation Dagger, he harnessed space cracks and combined them with the Condensation Dagger, transforming it into his dagger’s destructive power.

Under these circumstances, the attack power that the Condensation Dagger could unleash reached a horrifying level. He constantly practiced combining the Condensation Dagger with space cracks until it reached a high level of proficiency. At this moment, he hadn’t even released his Battle Armor, fully immersing himself in a frenzy of attacks.

Tian Zefeng, too, was astonished at this moment; he had never encountered an opponent with such terrifying defense. He had faced many opponents, and even the Four-Word Battle Armor couldn’t stop his Condensation Dagger. Only Five-Word Battle Armor and above, worn by God level strong, could really withstand it. That is to say, the defensive power Qian Lei possessed at least matched the level of Four-Word Battle Armor.

The golden fur was exceptionally tough, and so was the skin beneath it. While multiple bloodstains appeared on Qian Lei’s body, the sharp destructive power of the Condensation Dagger could not penetrate deep into his body. The wounds were fierce but only superficial, not truly harming him.

Moreover, Tian Zefeng also felt that as Qian Lei resisted using his body alone without releasing Soul Power; otherwise, the combination of bloodline power and Soul Power would increase the speed of his attacks, reducing the impact of Tian Zefeng’s own attacks on him.
