"Damn it, he actually dares to look down on us! He's just a control-type Spirit King. Let's teach him a lesson."
"One, two, three!"
"One, two, three!"
"One, two, three!"
The seven members of Elephant Armor Academy advanced and retreated in perfect unison, shouting their slogans as they moved. This was their signature tactic—overwhelming their opponents with synchronized attacks, pushing them out of the ring with their first spirit skill.
"A control-type Spirit King?"
Ye Feng smirked and said casually, "Who said I'm just a control-type Spirit King?"
He stretched out his right hand, and golden light bloomed from his palm. In an instant, a golden long sword took shape in his grasp.
The blade had the sun, moon, and stars engraved on one side, while mountains, rivers, and plants adorned the other. The hilt bore the ancient teachings of agriculture and animal husbandry on one side, and the strategies of unifying the world on the other.
The moment the Xuanyuan Sword spirit manifested, a domineering aura spread out, carrying the presence of a king. The sheer pressure made weapon spirit masters instinctively feel the urge to kneel in submission.
"Twin martial spirits!"
Platinum Bishop Salas exclaimed in shock.
"Three ten-thousand-year spirit rings..."
Hu Yanzhen's eyes widened as he stared at the Xuanyuan Sword in disbelief.
"That golden sword-shaped martial spirit actually has a kingly aura."
Emperor Xue Ye narrowed his eyes slightly. As an emperor, he was used to exuding dominance, yet now, before him, was something radiating an even stronger royal presence. It made him uncomfortable. He turned his head to look at Chen Xin and said with a knowing expression, "I see. I was curious why Sword Douluo took him as his direct disciple. Turns out, he also possesses a sword-shaped martial spirit."
At that moment, not only Emperor Xue Ye but everyone who had questioned why Chen Xin had accepted Ye Feng as his disciple finally understood.
Ye Feng wasn't just a genius with the Nine Hearts Mysterious Tang martial spirit—he had twin martial spirits, and his second was a sword spirit.
Seeing the stunned and fearful expressions of Hu Yanli and the others, Ye Feng grinned and asked, "Still want to fight?"
"Of course!" Hu Yanli replied firmly. They still had their trump cards.
"You sure?" Ye Feng smirked.
Suddenly, Dragon Phoenix Ancient Wings burst from Ye Feng's back, shining with a dazzling purple-gold light.
"External spirit bone!"
Emperor Xue Ye stroked his beard in amazement. "That kid actually has an external spirit bone?"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Ning Fengzhi nodded, smiling. "He's been outstanding since childhood."
Ye Feng not only had twin martial spirits but also an external spirit bone.
The moment the Dragon Phoenix Ancient Wings appeared, the surrounding king-like aura intensified. Not only did weapon spirit masters feel the pressure, but beast spirit masters now felt it as well.
The Diamond Mammoth was an ancient beast, but Dragon Phoenix bloodline was supreme among spirit beasts. Under the crushing aura of Ye Feng's Dragon Phoenix Ancient Wings, Hu Yanli and his team felt their strength being forcefully suppressed.
"Shit!"
Hu Yanli clenched his fists and muttered, "Why the hell does he have an external spirit bone that lets him fly?! If he stays in the air, he can completely bypass our strongest defenses and strike at our heads. He also just shattered our rhythm... This Ye Feng!!"
"Brother, should we use that move?"
"No, no, no! That's reserved for Kamikaze Academy."
"But if we don't, we'll never land a hit on him!"
The members of Elephant Armor Academy stared up at Ye Feng in frustration.
"Let me baptize you first!"
Ye Feng raised his sword. His second spirit ring on the Xuanyuan Sword lit up, releasing a deep black glow.
Xuanyuan Sword: Second Spirit Skill – Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Origin!
Golden light filled the air as countless golden sword blades materialized above the arena.
"Go!"
With a flick of Ye Feng's wrist, tens of thousands of golden swords rained down upon the seven members of Elephant Armor Academy.
The Elephant Armor team quickly raised their shields, defending against the storm of golden blades. Though the attack was intense, it didn't seem to overwhelm them completely.
"Is this really a ten-thousand-year spirit skill? Why does it seem so weak?" someone questioned.
"Of course it's a ten-thousand-year skill. If my guess is right, he's holding back. He's controlling its power deliberately." A spirit master analyzed.
"But why?"
"Deterrence."
"Deterrence?"
"That's right."
Yu Xiaogang narrowed his eyes as he studied Ye Feng's tactics. "Everything—the actions of the six Shrek team members before this, and now Ye Feng's display—is for one purpose: to intimidate. He wants to establish dominance so that future opponents will be too afraid to fight them seriously.
"In short, he's forcing the other teams to consider surrendering before the fight even begins."
"So, the seven members of Elephant Armor Academy are going to be bedridden for a while?"
The person who responded was a fiery-haired girl—Huo Wu.
"Yes. You're as sharp as ever, Huo Wu, just like Tang San." Yu Xiaogang praised.
Xuanyuan Sword: First Spirit Skill – Terrifying All!
Ye Feng descended from the sky, releasing a golden sword aura that blasted the seven Elephant Armor members backward by three steps.
Xuanyuan Sword: Third Spirit Skill – Killing Intent!
Ye Feng swung his sword mid-air, slashing directly at Hu Yanli.
Hu Yanli's expression changed drastically. A golden flash shone between his brows as a golden helmet appeared on his head—his head spirit bone, his ultimate trump card for this tournament.
But then, something shocking happened.
The 50,000-year spirit skill that should have carried devastating power... had zero attack force when it struck Hu Yanli's head.
"What the hell?!"
Hu Yanli touched his own body in disbelief. "Why do I feel... completely powerless?"
Nine Hearts Mysterious Tang: Fourth Spirit Skill – Heaven Collapse and Earth Splitting!
Ye Feng pressed both palms to the ground. Five massive lava eruptions shot up from the arena floor, sending Hu Yanli and his team flying. When they landed, they realized the lava was sticky, reducing their mobility.
Nine Hearts Mysterious Tang: Third Spirit Skill – Essence of Water!
A blue glow radiated from Ye Feng's body, forming a cold water surface on the battlefield. The freezing water solidified instantly, trapping the Elephant Armor team's feet in thick ice.
Buzz!
The Elephant Armor members shuddered and shattered the frozen restraints.
Nine Hearts Mysterious Tang: Second Spirit Skill – Frozen!
But Ye Feng immediately cast another freezing skill, turning the entire team into ice sculptures.
Buzz!
Once again, the seven Elephant Armor members forced their way out.
"Brother, what the hell is he doing?"
A team member frowned. "If he froze us first, then used his third skill after, he could've completely destroyed us in one move. But he reversed the order... What's he playing at?"
Hu Yanli's expression darkened. He clenched his fists, recalling the killing intent slash that had been completely powerless. Then, looking at Ye Feng's strange battle patterns, he gritted his teeth and growled:
"He's just showing off his spirit skills!"
