Chapter 157 She Had a Bold Idea

The stalemate effect on Xiao Wu disappeared. The third soul ring on Xiao Wu's body, which had been pulsating, flickered with a faint glow. With a flash of pink light, Xiao Wu vanished from the woman's sight and suddenly appeared behind Tang Sui. She wrapped her arms around Tang Sui's waist and they instantly teleported backward, leaving their original position.

"What? It's a teleportation soul skill!"

The prey disappeared from her vision. The woman's snake-like eyes narrowed, and she quickly re-locked onto the rabbit that had escaped right before her eyes.

"Whoosh—!"

The spike tore through the air, whistling as it missed.

"First Soul Skill, Spirit Infusion."

A flash of black and red light, and two distinct jade-white masks emerged from the void. Three deep purple soul rings rose from beneath Tang Sui's feet, encircling her and pulsating.

"Heavens, heavens!"

On the bustling spectator stands, the cheers died down as the audience saw the three deep purple soul rings, replaced by stunned silence.

"Three, three thousand-year soul rings!"

"My god! The little girl's first soul ring is a thousand years old! How is she not dead from a soul overload?!"

"Hiss, she's not very tall, and her voice… is it disguised? It sounds a bit young. Could she be from a prominent family?"

The spectator stands erupted into chatter once more.

Master, sitting with others, had a sharp glint in his eyes but remained silent.

"Three thousand-year soul rings?"

Upon seeing the three pulsating soul rings on Tang Sui, a flicker of surprise crossed the man's handsome face. He straightened up, his contempt lessening slightly.

"While it's quite intriguing… they're merely support-type soul masters. We have two combat soul masters!"

Before his last word could fully land, a powerful aura of soul power erupted from the man. A black, pungent stench mingled with the already spreading deep green mist. As the man moved, it expanded like an inflating balloon, ready to explode if it came into contact with anything sharp.

"Second Soul Skill, Marsh Gas!"

"Third Soul Skill, Green Snake Dance."

Several small, venomous green snakes condensed from soul power appeared on the battle stage. They slithered in an "S" pattern and, the moment they landed, vanished into the poisonous mist, merging with it and making their locations impossible to pinpoint. This effectively sealed off all of Xiao Wu's teleportation routes.

Because those little green snakes could appear from the toxic fog at any moment and bite the two of them!

"Such despicable tactics! Like some twisted characters from ancient lore!" Xiao Wu, protecting Tang Sui, felt a drop of cold sweat trickle down her forehead as she constantly searched for thinner spots in the toxic fog.

"Oh no, with the combined effects of their soul skills, the poisonous fog has almost covered the entire arena in the blink of an eye!"

"The woman's snake venom is the most troublesome. Sister Xiao Wu, let me down. I'll handle her; you can focus on the other person." Tang Sui gently patted Xiao Wu's hand on her waist, her blue eyes calm, showing no sign of panic.

Xiao Wu hesitated for a second before releasing her grip.

"Whoosh—"

A faint emerald light flickered in the empty eyes of the fox mask, while the ape mask's large round eyes widened, flashing with red light matching their color.

The two masks flew straight forward. On their path towards the man, they began to spin at high speed, the terrifying airflow coiling into a storm. The tips were sharp, like a diamond drill operating at maximum power, leaving nothing in its wake.

Even the floor tiles, made of special metal, emitted sharp screeches under the friction of the diamond drill storm.

The imposing aura made the man's pupils contract.

"Not good!"

"Third Soul Skill, Newt Scale Armor!"

Unable to retract the force of his charge, the man's third soul ring lit up. The thick scales of a forest newt covered his entire body, increasing his defense to 150% of its normal level.

"Boom—!"

The moment the two powerful energies collided, a massive explosion occurred.

The colliding energy formed a churning vortex in the air. The powerful suction pulled the man's legs, deeply planted on the ground, towards the center of the energy.

The man tried to escape, but he couldn't break free from the terrifying suction. His tall figure was engulfed in the wave of the massive energy explosion, his fate unknown!

"A Heng!"

The woman's startled cry rang out. Tang Sui quickly called back the equally stunned Xiao Wu. "Sister Xiao Wu, our chance!"

Xiao Wu snapped back to reality and activated her teleportation, bypassing the terrifying explosion's center. She suddenly appeared behind the woman, taking advantage of the woman's full attention being on the front. Her long scorpion braid, covered in a faint pink glow, wrapped around the woman's waist as before, tossing her into the air, initiating her interrupted series of soft techniques.

"Ugh!"

The strong-attack soul master's heavy blows landed on the body's vital acupoints. Even though the woman's body possessed the unique flexibility of a snake, each spot attacked by Xiao Wu became numb and throbbing. She was trapped in a stalemate.

This is bad, the opponent's attack points are extremely precise. They cause paralysis similar to poisoning, but it's not poison, so my snake venom antibodies can't resist it! Sudán Novel Network.

The dull thuds of impacts continued to resound. The man, completely buried in the sudden dust cloud, was also not having an easy time.

'He's still standing.'

A faint voice from the fox mask echoed in Tang Sui's mind.

Even without Tang San's unique ocular abilities, what the fox mask and ape mask were seeing at this moment became her two additional pairs of eyes.

'He hasn't fallen, he hasn't surrendered. Then let's keep hitting.'

Tang Sui faintly conveyed her will.

The ape mask and fox mask, having disentangled from their high-speed rotation, immediately flew again. Amidst the gasps of the audience, they "whooshed" into the dust cloud, and blows as heavy as Xiao Wu's rang out once more from the swirling dust.
