Chapter 170: The Yin Ming White Tiger Decides the Outcome
"You're too naive. From the very beginning, you fell into our trap."
Dai Yao's figure emerged. After enduring the thunderstorm, his clothes were torn and tattered, with many parts scorched black, resembling a beggar.
But strangely, despite the severe damage to his clothing, his bronzed skin, visible through the rips in his clothes, was completely unscathed.
His body, forged through relentless training and tempered through countless trials, remained as strong as ever. It seemed as though the Thunder Academy's overwhelming assault had no effect on him.
With golden short hair fluttering in the wind, Dai Yao walked toward Thunder Academy, his steps slow but unwavering. No one dared to strike him.
Even after such a terrifying barrage, none of Thunder Academy's attacks had harmed him in the slightest, which instilled a sense of fear in all of them.
The sound of his footsteps echoed through the Soul Fighting Arena, like the tolling of a bell marking Thunder Academy's inevitable defeat.
Several soul masters even began to sweat nervously.
"Did you really think that we at Oakland would continue using the spearhead tactic? Do you think we've run out of options?" Dai Yao said with a smile, continuing his walk.
"After more than ten matches, I'm sure you've studied Oakland's tactics to the point where you've almost figured them out. But using the spearhead tactic was not out of stupidity."
"We knew you would develop an effective counter-strategy against the spearhead tactic."
"That's why, after we used it, you immediately jumped at the opportunity and attacked recklessly."
"Unfortunately, you didn't realize that your judgment was wrong. From the very beginning, you walked right into the trap we set for you."
"I purposely did nothing in the face of your attacks, guiding you deeper and deeper into the trap."
"Now, your soul power has been drained significantly."
"I can now tell you one thing: I am Thunder Immunity!"
Boom—
The entire Soul Fighting Arena exploded with noise!
Debates erupted, with supporters of Oakland claiming that they had used their advantage to drain Thunder Academy's soul power, greatly increasing their chances of victory.
Opponents, on the other hand, shouted angrily.
Thunder Academy's supporters were naturally unwilling to accept defeat, and many spectators didn't want to see the match end in such a disappointing manner. They were hoping for a thrilling, peak-level showdown!
After all, they could only watch the preliminary rounds; they wouldn't be able to see the finals!
Upon hearing Dai Yao's words, Yu Tianxin's face showed disbelief. He couldn't believe that Dai Yao actually had Thunder Immunity.
That meant all their previous attacks had been nothing more than an itch for him!
While they were desperately attacking, Dai Yao must have been laughing inside.
None of them had questioned it, and now they had all fallen into the trap!
Immediately, an overwhelming sense of frustration filled Yu Tianxin's heart. His fists clenched tightly, his body surging with thunder power, and he glared angrily at Dai Yao.
He felt like a fool being played with—yet after being tricked, he had been complacent about it.
Behind him, members of Thunder Academy showed signs of panic.
They had realized that their soul power had been completely drained from their attacks!
Noticing the situation with his team, Yu Tianxin's heart sank.
His soul power had been greatly reduced as well, and he only had about 50% remaining. He glanced back at Lei Dong, and the two exchanged a silent understanding with a single nod.
In an instant, he had assessed the status of his team.
The three Soul Sovereigns had exhausted all their soul power.
The remaining three Soul Kings, excluding him, still had 40% of their soul power left.
On the other hand, every member of Oakland was full of energy and soul power, showing no sign of exhaustion. They had waited until now with great patience, and their chances of victory were now incredibly high.
Yu Tianxin couldn't help but curse himself for being too careless, leading to such a large drain on their soul power.
"Still not willing to admit defeat?" Dai Yao said, locking eyes with Yu Tianxin and giving a light chuckle.
Yu Tianxin gritted his teeth, his frustration showing clearly on his face. Suddenly, he exploded with the remaining 50% of his soul power. Thunder crackled, and silver serpents hissed as the entire Soul Fighting Arena once again filled with thunder energy.
"To defeat Thunder Academy, you're still not qualified!" he roared in anger.
Behind him, the remaining three Soul Kings unleashed their thunder power, complementing Yu Tianxin's attack.
Dai Yao, observing the still-defiant Thunder Academy, slightly shook his head, thinking helplessly, "Looks like I'll have to reveal a few more trump cards!"
"Zhu Qing!" Dai Yao suddenly called out.
His unexpected shout caught many spectators off guard. Yu Tianxin furrowed his brow, unsure of Dai Yao's intentions.
Meanwhile, watching from the sidelines, Yu Tianheng's heart skipped a beat. His eyes widened, and he stared intently at Dai Yao and Zhu Zhuqing, a sense of urgency overtaking him.
At that moment, he had a strong premonition—Dai Yao was about to use the Martial Soul Fusion Skill!
He had been defeated by Dai Yao and Zhu Zhuqing's Yin Ming White Tiger before and was well aware of the power of their Martial Soul Fusion technique.
But he couldn't interfere—any disruption of the match was strictly prohibited, and such actions could lead to disqualification. Even though he was from the prestigious Tiandou Royal Academy, he wouldn't dare cheat in front of 80,000 spectators.
As everyone stared in disbelief, Zhu Zhuqing turned into a streak of ghostly light, charging toward Dai Yao, the fierce wind parting like waves split by an oar.
At the same time, white light flickered around Dai Yao.
A strange, powerful connection seemed to form between the two. Soul power far beyond that of a Soul King suddenly erupted, soaring toward the sky.
Seeing this strange phenomenon, Yu Tianxin's pupils constricted. Not good!
He immediately shouted to his team, "It's a Martial Soul Fusion Skill! Stop them!"
Before he could finish, he charged forward, heading straight for Dai Yao.
His heart raced as his body stiffened in alarm. Thunder Academy's members were in poor condition, and if Dai Yao succeeded in the fusion, the blow would be devastating.
The words Martial Soul Fusion struck like thunder in the hearts of Thunder Academy's remaining members, causing them to hesitate for a moment.
But as proud elites, they quickly regained composure, with electricity flashing around them. They followed Yu Tianxin's lead and rushed to attack Dai Yao.
Dai Yao looked at the four approaching Soul Kings with a slight smirk.
"Too late."
He said softly.
His foot moved lightly, and his body disappeared from its original spot, reappearing in front of Zhu Zhuqing.
In the next moment, the white light around Dai Yao suddenly flared up. At the same time, the ghostly light on Zhu Zhuqing also shone brightly, and the entire Soul Fighting Arena seemed to lose its color.
"Roar!"
A giant tiger, 25 meters long with wings sprouting from its back, translucent and glowing, appeared in the arena.
With a single roar, every soul master present felt a shiver run down their spine.
The terrifying aura emanating from the beast instilled fear deep into their souls.
Yu Tianxin looked at the giant tiger, inhaling sharply in fear, his body trembling.
