Chapter 185 Overwhelming Strength
Facing the terrifying lineup of two Soul Kings and five Soul Masters from the Royal Fighting Team, it would be impossible for the seven members of Elephant Armor Academy not to be nervous.
But this is only the first round of the competition, and in previous Soul Master Tournaments, no one has ever conceded defeat in the first round of the preliminary rounds. As disciples of the Elephant Armor Sect, one of the three upper sects, they naturally wouldn't break this precedent.
The seven stood in a row, lined up in a row, their first spirit rings flashing simultaneously, and they stepped out steadily, one step at a time.
Under the influence of the spirit rings, the seven people who had transformed into elephant-headed humans gained a layer of crystal-clear color, like diamonds. With a terrifying aura that occupied half the diameter of the entire circular arena, they approached the Royal Fighting Team. With each step they took, their aura would surge several times.
If it were any other participating team, even if they ultimately won, they would undoubtedly be in a passive position from the start on this narrow competition platform.
However, Royal Fighting Team is not included in this category.
Dugu Yan stepped forward, her eyes narrowing slightly. "No matter how strong the defense is, it can't stop my dragon poison..." As she spoke, the first three soul rings on her body lit up simultaneously, ready to release the dragon poison.
But Ye Qinghe stopped her, "Yanzi, wait a moment, I want to test the extreme power of the Evil God Tiger."
"Okay." Dugu Yan obeyed Ye Qinghe's words completely, stopped her soul skill, and stepped aside. Zhu Zhuqing, Yu Feng, Oslo, and the Shi brothers also stepped back, clearly having full confidence in Ye Qinghe's strength.
The onlookers seemed a little confused by this scene, but no one said anything and all focused their attention on Ye Qinghe.
After his martial soul evolved, Ye Qinghe's martial soul possession also underwent corresponding changes. The black light that originally covered his body turned into dark red, and a tail composed of bone knots appeared behind him, with a sharp barb at the very top.
It was none other than the Evil God's Hook.
In addition to providing him with powerful offensive means, when released simultaneously with the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's external soul bone, it can amplify all attributes from 80% to 90%.
However, it was clear that the Elephant Armor Academy was not worth him using this external soul bone.
At the same time, Ye Qinghe's soul skills also changed. His original first soul skill, Beast King Assault, became Evil God Assault, which was imbued with evil energy.
While the attack power and speed of the soul skill attack are still increased by 50% at the moment of activation, the attack range and area of effect are increased dramatically.
"First Soul Skill: Evil God Assault"
As his first spirit ring lit up, Ye Qinghe trailed a dark red flame behind him, and he sped towards the seven members of Elephant Armor Academy like a shooting star.
Although he did not use the teleportation skill granted by the Nine Nether Profound Heaven Divine Art, his speed when charging forward was definitely superior to that of a Soul King of the same level who was skilled in agility-based attacks.
This gave the seven members of the Elephant Armor Academy a sense of unreality, as if the surrounding space was slightly distorted. A chilling dark red light, along with the eerie dark red light emanating from his body, bloomed simultaneously, creating a powerful and malevolent pressure that swept over them.
"Go all out and stop him!"
Faced with the threat posed by Ye Qinghe, the seven members of the Elephant Armor Sect dared not hold back in the slightest. Hu Yanli shouted loudly, and the soul rings on all of them lit up at the same time, instantly raising their defense and strength to the peak.
At the same time, Hu Yanli's elephant skull also activated, forming a helmet-shaped shield similar to that of a mammoth, which charged towards Ye Qinghe.
Normally, Ye Qinghe would never have retaliated against such a clumsy attack head-on; he would have simply attacked from behind. However, eager to test the power of the Evil God Tiger, he neither dodged nor evaded. The dark red aura around his body instantly converged towards his right hand, the condensed evil light resembling a gigantic tiger head with its fangs bared. It charged towards Hu Yanli's helmet and shield.
With a deafening roar, Ye Qinghe and the seven members of Elephant Armor Academy separated instantly after a brief collision in the arena.
Ye Qinghe's forward momentum came to a halt, and he swayed in the center of the arena. The ground beneath his feet suddenly exploded, forming a spiderweb-like shallow crater.
Hu Yanli's helmet-shaped shield shattered, and he and the other six members of the Elephant Armor Academy were sent flying with screams. The three Soul Masters, including Hu Yanli, flew more than ten feet in the air before barely stabilizing themselves not far from the edge of the arena, their blood and qi surging.
But the others weren't so lucky. Only the remaining four disciples with the Soul Venerable cultivation level were sent flying like cannonballs in this collision, crashing off the arena.
It remained conscious, suffering only some superficial injuries that appeared serious but did not break bones, demonstrating the Diamond Mammoth's formidable defense.
Otherwise, if it were any other defensive Soul Master, even just the aftershocks of Ye Qinghe's Evil God Assault would have been enough to severely injure and render them unconscious.
Hu Yanli looked at Ye Qinghe with complicated emotions. Before the competition started, his grandfather, Hu Yanzhen, the sect leader of Elephant Armor Sect, one of the three upper sects, and a Celestial Douluo, had instructed him that if he encountered someone named Ye Qinghe, he must not harm him.
As a result, they didn't even have the right to threaten the other party, let alone cause any harm.
The instant he clashed with Ye Qinghe, a chilling aura surged from the latter's soul power into his own. His own soul power, however, began to dissipate within this malevolent, chilling force. Suppressed and unable to unleash its full power, it was clear that this Evil God Tiger Martial Soul far exceeded his expectations.
Ye Qinghe, however, had a different experience. Although he had repelled the seven members of the Elephant Armor Academy, and four of them with lower soul power were directly eliminated, he also felt the formidable defense of the seven opponents. Under the effect of that head soul bone, the defensive power of the Diamond Mammoth was fully unleashed.
"Now I have a general idea of the power of the Evil God Tiger, there is no need to continue this match."
These thoughts flashed through his mind for only a moment. Just as Hu Yanli and the other two regained their footing, Ye Qinghe suddenly disappeared in front of them. When he reappeared, he was already in front of Hu Yanli. He threw a punch, and the diamond-like glaze on Hu Yanli's body shattered instantly.
By the time the other two Soul Masters reacted, Hu Yanli's massive body had already been sent flying like a boiled shrimp.
Then Ye Qinghe kicked them one by one, and the defenses of the two Diamond Mammoth Soul Masters were as fragile as paper in front of him. He and Hu Yanli fell off the fighting platform one after the other.
At this point, all seven members of the Xiangjia Academy team have been eliminated.
Looking at the remaining six members of the Royal Fighting Team on the stage, apart from Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing, who had a close relationship with Ye Qinghe and were already familiar with his strength, the others' gazes towards Ye Qinghe had already changed.
In fact, it wasn't just them; everyone else present felt the same way.
Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, Oscar, and Yu Tianheng almost bit their tongues.
Tang San was on the verge of madness.
