Chapter 688 The target is Ah Yin.
The first to act were the Shrek Seven Devils.
"Brothers, change formation!"
As soon as the referee finished speaking, the Shrek Seven Devils, who were known as little monsters, immediately changed their formation and adopted the classic 2-3-2 formation.
As always, Dai Mubai and Yu Tianheng, the two offensive Soul Masters, were at the forefront, with Tang San in the center to command, Xiao Wu and Ma Hongjun on the flanks, and Oscar and Ning Rongrong at the rear, responsible for supplying and providing amplification support.
"Activate your Martial Soul and release your Soul Rings."
As the Shrek Seven Devils changed formation, Tang San, standing in the center of the group, also opened his mouth and shouted, instructing his teammates to activate their martial souls.
In previous competitions, such minor tasks as pre-match command and communication with the opposing team were usually handled by the team captain.
But now, the power of the Shrek Seven Devils has completely shifted to Tang San. Dai Mubai, the captain, has become a figurehead, and even the power to call on everyone to change formations and release their martial souls has been stripped away.
Dai Mubai didn't say much about it.
After all, Tang San was stronger than him, and his command ability was widely recognized. In addition, Tang San was Grandmaster's disciple, and Grandmaster was responsible for coordinating the Shrek Seven Devils' competition.
Given the situation, Dai Mubai had no choice but to compromise, though he was somewhat displeased.
As soon as the shout was uttered, Tang San, who was in the center of the formation, was the first to release his martial soul.
He coldly stared at his opponent while slowly raising his right hand in front of his chest.
Instantly, a surge of purplish-black light appeared, and a strange plant that had changed color and lost its original form condensed in the palm of his hand.
It was his first martial soul, Blue Silver Grass.
The moment Tang San's martial soul was activated, his spirit rings were also released.
Four spirit rings, one yellow, one purple, and one black, rose up from beneath his feet, then rose and fell slowly around his body.
Tang San's spirit rings are still as awe-inspiring and eye-catching as ever.
Especially that black soul ring that emitted a faint black light and didn't look particularly conspicuous.
Anyone with even a little knowledge of Soul Masters knows what black signifies—it represents a ten-thousand-year Soul Ring.
As everyone knows, a ten-thousand-year soul ring is a soul ring that only a level 50 Soul King or higher can absorb.
However, Tang San seemed to defy this common sense—a ten-thousand-year spirit ring appeared on his fourth spirit ring.
The appearance of the black, ten-thousand-year-old fourth spirit ring immediately drew gasps of surprise from the crowd.
Although it was common knowledge that Tang San possessed a ten-thousand-year soul ring despite his Soul Master level strength, the audience was still shocked and surprised to see him on the arena again.
"Possessed by the White Tiger!"
"The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex has possessed me!"
"Possessed by the Soft-Boned Rabbit!"
"Possessed by an evil phoenix!"
At the same time, Tang San's teammates also released their martial souls. Dai Mubai, Yu Tianheng, Xiao Wu, and Ma Hongjun, the four beast martial soul masters, immediately possessed their martial souls after releasing them.
Amidst the whistling sound, Dai Mubai, standing at the forefront, erupted with a strong pale white light, his bones cracking and his muscles bulging.
Dai Mubai's height suddenly increased by a notch, his upper body slowly leaned forward, his chest puffed out, and his arms stretched out to both sides at the same time, his hands growing twice as big, turning into a pair of tiger paws.
The tiger's paws were covered in white fur, and a pair of eight-inch-long, dagger-like claws sprang out, gleaming with a sinister, cold light.
At the same time, Dai Mubai's pair of evil eyes with double pupils turned into a deep, dark blue, his full head of golden hair instantly turned into black and white, and a "king" character pattern appeared on his forehead.
A powerful, humanoid white tiger suddenly appeared, its fierce aura emanating from it.
Yu Tianheng, standing next to him, was equally impressive.
With a dragon's roar, Yu Tianheng quickly completed the spirit possession.
A dazzling blue light suddenly shone from between his eyebrows, then instantly spread, descending from his brow into his entire body.
Strands of blue-purple electricity burst forth like small snakes, circling around the body and finally converging at the center of the forehead, forming a blue lightning bolt symbol.
Thanks to the special talent of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Martial Soul, Yu Tianheng was born with the ability to transform into a dragon. With his level 44 Soul Master cultivation, both of his arms can transform into dragon-shaped claws at the same time.
After the lightning bolt mark formed between his eyebrows, Yu Tianheng's arms immediately began to change.
Its arms swelled up and transformed into dragon arms, becoming extremely thick and more than half a foot longer, covered with bluish-purple scales.
Its hands transformed into dragon claws, covered with the same blue-purple scales, and each joint on its hands became extremely large, taking on the shape of a dragon.
In an instant, Yu Tianheng transformed into a humanoid blue dragon, unleashing a fierce aura that was no weaker than Dai Mubai's, and perhaps even stronger.
Two yellow and two purple spirit rings appeared on Yu Tianheng and Dai Mubai, bursting out with dazzling light that almost blinded the audience.
Standing on either side of Tang San, Xiao Wu and Ma Hongjun, after their martial souls were attached, transformed into a humanoid rabbit and a chubby mohawk chicken, each releasing their own spirit rings.
Both of them had standard spirit ring configurations.
Xiao Wu is a level 41 Soul Master, and her Soul Ring configuration is yellow-yellow-purple-purple.
Ma Hongjun is a level 39 Soul Master with only three Soul Rings: two yellow and one purple.
Ning Rongrong and Oscar, who were at the very back of the group, were both support-type weapon spirit masters, each holding their own spirit in their hands.
Their spirit ring configuration was the same as Ma Hongjun's, with three spirit rings: two yellow and one purple. These rings were currently swirling around their bodies, rising and falling rhythmically.
To be fair, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda truly lives up to its reputation as the number one support-type martial soul. The dazzling seven-colored light it emits almost outshines everyone else on the scene.
Oscar's sausage spirit was far inferior.
Although it is a rare food-type martial soul with innate full soul power in the Douluo Continent, its appearance is indeed a bit lacking. Compared to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, it appears even more lackluster and is unlikely to win the favor of the audience.
However, Oscar clearly didn't care about any of that. After releasing his sausage spirit, he started muttering incantations and rubbing sausages with a lewd expression.
The one-minute release of the Martial Soul phase allows food-type Soul Masters to prepare supplies in advance.
During this period, all preparatory measures are permitted as long as no attack is launched against the opponent.
When the Shrek Seven Devils simultaneously released their martial souls, revealing all their soul rings to the audience, even more enthusiastic applause and cheers erupted from the stands.
What the audience loves to see most is the dazzling scene of all the Soul Masters releasing their Martial Souls and Soul Rings together before the competition officially begins.
It's the same no matter when the game is going on.
In addition, the professional hosts provided by the competition team delivered a passionate and energetic commentary, which brought the atmosphere of the event to its peak.
Once emotions are influenced and stirred, the audience's enthusiasm naturally soars to unprecedented heights.
While the Shrek Seven Devils were hastily releasing their martial souls to prepare for the upcoming match, the opposing Spirit Hall's second team seemed to be behaving somewhat strangely.
Upon hearing the referee announce that they could activate their Martial Souls, the expressions on the faces of the entire Spirit Hall Second Team remained unchanged, as calm, composed, and unhurried as before.
They didn't even bother to change their formation; the seven of them were still lined up in a row.
After all seven members of the Shrek Seven Devils team activated their martial souls and were ready, the Spirit Hall's second team finally made a move.
However, only three people released their martial souls according to the referee's instructions, and they all seemed unhurried and in no hurry.
"Yue'er, Zhuqing, Xiangxiang."
With her arms crossed and exuding confidence, Raven casually mentioned the names of her three sisters:
"Same as always, you three, play with them first."
"Alright, boss, watch this."
"Understood, eldest sister."
"Yes, eldest sister."
When Raven called their names, the fourth, fifth, and sixth sisters in the team all nodded in response.
Yes, the three people who activated their martial spirits according to the instructions on the Spirit Hall's second team were none other than Jin Yue'er, Zhu Zhuqing, and Bai Chenxiang, who had been invincible in the past and had brought the team a 27-game winning streak.
In response to Raven, the three uniquely beautiful girls stepped forward together, quickly activating their martial spirits and completing the martial spirit possession.
The three people's body shapes changed rapidly.
Possessed by the Golden Crocodile King, Jin Yue'er, dressed in a golden women's outfit, instantly transformed into a pair of golden vertical pupils.
At the same time, her exposed skin on her cheeks, neck, and arms was covered with a layer of fine scales, and a long, illusory golden crocodile tail grew out of thin air behind her.
In the blink of an eye, Jin Yue'er had transformed into a graceful humanoid crocodile woman. Not only had she grown taller, but her figure had also improved considerably.
However, compared to Zhu Zhuqing next to her, she is still quite inferior.
After being possessed by the winged spirit cat, Zhu Zhuqing, dressed in a black tight-fitting leather outfit and black high heels, had her eyes change color simultaneously. Her left eye became dark green, and her right eye became clear blue. Sharp cat claws flicked out from her ten fingers.
In addition, Zhu Zhuqing has grown a pair of cat ears on her head, a flexible cat tail behind her buttocks, and a pair of peculiar wings covered with soft fur on her back.
She looks exactly like a catgirl, with a tall, voluptuous and extremely hot figure, which is truly captivating and alluring.
Fortunately, the high-level Soul Master aura emanating from her made people realize that this cold-faced beauty was definitely not a fierce existence that anyone could provoke.
Therefore, no one dared to act recklessly.
Next to Zhu Zhuqing was Bai Chenxiang, dressed in a light purple leather jacket and shorts that reached her hips, wearing high-heeled leather boots, and with her hair styled in two small ponytails.
After being possessed by the Peng Bird Martial Soul, this beautiful girl with light purple hair grew a pair of illusory wings on her back.
Its wings are golden, covered with feathers, with perfect lines and a wingspan of up to three meters. It seems to have been born to soar through the sky. As soon as it appeared, it was about to take Bai Chenxiang and fly straight up to the heavens.
Jin Yue'er, Zhu Zhuqing, and Bai Chenxiang all have the same soul ring configuration: two yellow, one purple, and one black.
The four spirit rings, yellow, purple, and black, hovering above them, were far more awe-inspiring than Tang San alone.
As both sides released their martial souls and soul rings, a strong aura of soul power filled the entire arena and collided fiercely in the air.
But without a doubt, the Spirit Hall's second team had the upper hand.
Although only Jin Yue'er, Zhu Zhuqing, and Bai Chenxiang from the Spirit Hall's second team have activated their spirits and spirit rings, all three of them are advanced Spirit Masters.
One is level 49, one is level 48, and one is level 47.
On the other hand, although the Shrek Seven Devils have four Soul Masters and three Soul Venerables, their Soul Power levels are all below level 44.
The superior force suppressed the inferior force, resulting in the soul power released by both sides being on completely different levels. The Spirit Hall's second team completely defeated the Shrek Seven Devils.
Even before the match began, the air was thick with tension as their soul energies clashed.
Feeling the suppression of soul power emanating from their opponents, the Shrek Seven Devils all wore extremely solemn expressions.
Before truly facing the Spirit Hall team, they all thought that the strength of this team was not as terrifying as rumored. With the overall strength of the Shrek Seven Devils, they might not be unable to fight them, and even have a chance to win.
But when they actually faced them, they realized that their opponent's achievement of winning the top spot in the preliminaries was no accident; their opponent definitely had the ability.
Tang San stared intently at Jin Yue'er, Zhu Zhuqing, and Bai Chenxiang, his expression somewhat dazed.
Facing these three girls with the same spirit ring configuration as him, he had a fleeting feeling that he was facing Huo Wu and Shui Bing'er from back then, as if any one of them could crush him.
Tang San's heart sank, and his brows furrowed deeply, but he quickly relaxed, gently shaking his head to dispel the unsettling thought.
He admitted that his opponent was indeed very strong, but he was not weak either.
Tang San was very confident in himself and did not believe that Jin Yue'er and the other two were stronger than him. They were not as freakish as Huo Wu and Shui Bing'er.
Without reaching the Soul King realm or above, it's almost impossible to defeat him one-on-one, let alone crush him.
Besides, he wasn't here to compete with the other party today; his target was the girl who looked just like his mother, Ah Yin.
After his gaze swept over Jin Yue'er and the other two for a moment, Tang San quickly turned his attention back to Ye Lan.
Seeing that the other party had not activated their martial soul and seemed not to intend to make a move, Tang San frowned again, a surge of anger rising in his heart, feeling that they had been underestimated.
Not only Tang San, but the other six members of the Monster Association also felt the same way, as the other side was treating them like a weak team like other teams.
Do you think you can defeat them by sending only three high-level Soul Masters?
Haha, how arrogant.
Upon realizing this, the Shrek Seven Devils immediately glared angrily at the Spirit Hall team.
"you."
The hot-tempered, mischievous rabbit Xiao Wu couldn't stand this provocation and immediately wanted to utter a witty retort, but Tang San stopped her with a gesture.
In order for the plan to proceed smoothly, Tang San suppressed the anger rising in his heart and forced himself to calm down.
It doesn't matter. Let them look down on us. We'll see who's the real deal later.
All we need to do is force out the true strength of that guy named Ye Lan; everything else can be ignored.
