She slowly stretched out her arms, like an elegant dancer performing a swan dance. Behind Huowu, a human-shaped, fiery orange shadow emerged, like a reflection of flames cast on a wall, emitting a faint glow. This made the already indistinct fiery shadow seem even more ethereal.
This was her spirit, the Fiery Shadow.
As its name suggested, the Fiery Shadow was a fire-attribute shadow, but it was a special spirit capable of unleashing the maximum power of fire elements.
Tang Sui met another pair of eyes, as calm as ice. She curved her lips slightly. Before the host announced the start of the match, a captivating smile flowed from her exquisite eyebrows, "Actually, it’s not unfair for your Blazing Fire Academy to lose to me."
That captivating aura was not seductive, but a brilliant, innocent joy that could enchant anyone.
Huowu didn’t know why Tang Sui said that, but it didn't stop her from regarding Tang Sui with hostility.
"The final soul duel match, begins now!"
As soon as the words fell, Huowu struck first, her long, slender legs propelling her forward at full speed towards Tang Sui.
Her speed was not comparable to agile attack-type soul masters, but after reaching level forty, a soul master's body, amplified by soul rings and their own soul power, had broken through countless limits.
This full-speed charge was on par with Tang San's Ghost Shadow Perplexing Steps. In the blink of an eye, the distance between them rapidly closed. In just two blinks of an eye, they were close to Tang Sui.
"First soul skill, Flame Wheel!"
Before Huowu could reach Tang Sui, she swung her arms. The first yellow soul ring around her body lit up, and the air crackled with the sound of burning. Clusters of fiery orange flames ignited the air, and as Huowu swung her arms, they were drawn together in front of her.
The scorching flames agitated the air currents, swirling into a giant, human-sized flame wheel, like a hula hoop. The Fiery Shadow behind Huowu held one side of the flame ring and hurled it towards Tang Sui.
The attack range of this strike continuously expanded with the time and distance of the flame wheel's throw. More and more flames gathered and dispersed around the flame wheel, resembling a blooming flame flower, unfurling its petals. In reality, it was domineeringly occupying the open space on the arena, forcing Tang Sui out of the center circle!
The power of the Flame Wheel was immense, and Tang Sui didn't just stand there. While rapidly retreating, she also controlled the Fox Mask and Ape Mask to attack Huowu.
"Third soul skill, Repulsion Flame Ring!"
Huowu, who was prepared, chanted her soul skill. A third deep purple soul ring flickered, and a dazzling fiery orange halo was instantly released. This seemingly non-offensive soul skill, in an instant, forcefully repelled the two masks that were approaching her.
The expanding halo circle instantly covered a diameter of sixty meters, once again fiercely pushing Tang Sui, who had retreated to more than ten meters away from Huowu, towards the edge of the combat platform.
"Sui Sui!"
Xiao Wu exclaimed, watching Tang Sui stop five meters from the edge of the combat platform.
It was worth noting that the radius of the entire combat platform was fifty meters, making the diameter one hundred meters.
"Da,"
The Fox Mask, which had appeared behind Tang Sui’s feet, silently stabilized her retreating figure.
On the VIP seats, Ning Fengzhi let out a surprised "Yih." He hadn't expected Tang Sui's Mask Spirit to be used in this way.
And…
According to his observation, the masks appeared to be controlled by Tang Sui's own thoughts. If one couldn't perceive the masks, their appearance was completely without warning!
Truly terrifying. If the appearance of the masks was arbitrary, then what about their distance? And what kind of limitations were there?
Having stabilized her footing, Tang Sui looked up. The Flame Wheel, controlled by the Fiery Shadow and menacingly approaching with expanding range, was once again closing in, determined to force her off the combat platform!
"It seems there's no other way..." Tang Sui sighed. Under the gazes of everyone, from anticipation to confusion, and then to astonishment, she stood straight, facing the approaching Flame Wheel without any intention to dodge or evade.
Huowu's expression turned cold, her eyes, veiled with a faint red glow, were as indifferent as ice.
To take it head-on?
Since you're so confident in seeking death, then let's see if you have the life to withstand the Flame Wheel, which has accumulated terrifying flame power!
With this thought, Huowu increased the control and soul power output for the Flame Wheel.
What was a paddle pushing through water the previous second, became a deadly grinder in the next. Its high-speed rotation made even Feng Xiaotian, skilled in wind blade slashes, change his expression.
If that young lady from Shrek couldn't withstand the power of this strike, she would likely… be dead on the spot!
"What is she doing?!"
"Could she be planning to forcefully take this Flame Wheel attack?"
"She's too arrogant!"
Discussions erupted. On the Shrek side, even though they knew Tang Sui still had a trump card, their hearts couldn't help but lurch as the overwhelming flames completely engulfed her small figure.
"Sui Sui!"
Ning Rongrong's pupils contracted. She clutched the railings around the combat platform with both hands, half her body leaning over. It was Zhu Zhuqing who quickly pulled Ning Rongrong back.
But her gaze never left the stage. Her lips were tightly pursed, her eyes stern, "Believe in Sui Sui, she can do it."
"Boom—!"
As the rapidly rotating Flame Wheel swept across, it seemed to hit something, emitting a "sizzling" sound that was incredibly grating.
Choking smoke obscured all vision, and the entire combat platform was instantly covered in rolling smoke, making the outcome impossible to see!
