"Why is that Three-Legged Golden Crow so powerful?!"
The many inner academy disciples of Shrek Academy looked bewildered, yet they carried a trace of indescribable shock.
Many looked toward Wu Ming. She was also a Golden Crow, so why was the gap between them... so large?
"How would I know!" Wu Ming's face flushed, and she said with some embarrassment and annoyance, "Perhaps that is just a Three-Legged Golden Crow?"
Shrek Academy's exploration of the Golden Crow was still too limited.
After all, no one knew that it was actually the true form of the sun. Even Mu En only regarded it as a strange bird that controlled relatively powerful flames, never associating it with the sun in the slightest.
But not now, until Lu Cheng completely revealed the true form of the Three-Legged Golden Crow.
"There is no way. Even if I knew the secret of the Golden Crow Martial Soul, I would not be able to unearth it." Wu Ming gazed up at the figure hidden within that great sun in the sky, as well as the Three-Legged Golden Crow, her eyes filled with melancholy and emotion.
"My talent is far from enough... Perhaps only he can reveal the true power of the Golden Crow."
As she spoke, she could even feel her own Martial Soul within her stirring, as if it also wanted to ascend to the sky, circle around that great sun, and bow down in submission to it.
Hearing this, the surrounding inner academy disciples wore complex expressions.
If they could, who would be willing to be his enemy?
"Playing tricks. Since that is the case, let this old woman test your true colors!" Elder Song's eyes twitched. Behind her, an Azure Divine Eagle transformed into a blue shadow at a speed invisible to ordinary people, launching a surprise attack at Lu Cheng's back.
But in the next instant, Lu Cheng's expression remained indifferent. At some unknown moment, a fire bow had appeared in his palm. His other hand pulled back three arrows with two fingers before slowly releasing them.
The three arrows transformed into three Golden Crows, carrying the essence of the sun's fire as they surged forth.
Just as Elder Song was about to launch her surprise attack, her palm shaped like an eagle's claw, carrying power that seemed capable of tearing through space, slashed toward Lu Cheng's back.
An arrow, however, shot out from behind her at some unknown moment.
The scorching hot flames made Song Yunzhi feel a great terror between life and death. Her soul let out a mournful cry, and she felt a sense of impending annihilation.
If she didn't dodge, she would die...
Song Yunzhi gritted her teeth and had no choice but to dodge.
That figure remained standing, without even turning his head, his eyes slowly closing. The crimson arrow brushed past Song Yunzhi's side and returned to Lu Cheng's side, transforming into a Three-Legged Golden Crow.
As for the other two arrows, one shot toward Xian Liner. Upon making contact with her, it exploded with a boom, creating a commotion that made the heavens and earth tremble. The other flew back.
Simultaneously, a crimson energy shield condensed around Lu Cheng. Both arrows circled outside the energy shield, transforming into two three-legged golden crows, circling and protecting Lu Cheng's true body without any blind spots.
At this moment, no one dared to approach again.
Pfft...
With just one strike, Xian Liner turned pale and spat out blood. Qian Duoduo also retreated in time, guarding by Xian Liner's side, his small eyes observing Lu Cheng with great vigilance.
"Is this him?" Wei Linger's eyes were complex as she looked up at that powerful figure standing tall between heaven and earth. Just his back alone was enough to make countless people tremble.
A young girl admires the strong, and in her youth, she naturally would have liked him too. But now... only sighs remained.
After all, it was said that Zhang Lexuan, that guy's childhood sweetheart, was abandoned after being used, which was miserable. Although she had had interactions with him, she did not dare to hope that after the Holy Spirit Cult won, he would spare her.
"What a perverted guy..." Lang Ya's eyes were filled with emotion. While fighting against an evil soul master at the Spirit Douluo level, he was also using his divided soul, his brain martial soul's powerful mental force surging as he supported the other companions around him.
Back in the day, he could still fight against him. But now... the person opposite him had already ascended to the highest-level battlefield, suppressing a group of top experts until they couldn't catch their breath.
That phrase from back then, "Everyone here is trash," seemed impossible not to accept now.
Sunset Forest.
In a valley with beautiful scenery, on a patch of grass, Ma Xiaotao lay curled up, tears still hanging from the corners of her eyes. Her body suddenly twitched, and a pair of lively phoenix eyes slowly opened, looking around with some confusion.
"Where is he?"
A sense of unease rose in Ma Xiaotao's heart. A pair of fire wings suddenly grew from her back, and in an instant, she soared into the sky.
Her body felt light, and the Evil Fire within her, which used to be so dense it was almost abnormal, was now unusually calm and peaceful, with no signs of erupting...
"This is..." Ma Xiaotao paused, feeling the changes within her.
Her martial soul had completed its evolution! It was no longer the once-impure Evil Fire Phoenix but a Divine Fire Phoenix that carried the essence of the sun's fire and was even a grade higher than Extreme Fire!
Even her soul power had broken through several levels in a row.
But at this moment, Ma Xiaotao had no intention of being happy. Instead, she flew frantically out of the valley toward Shrek Academy, her eyes somewhat numb, or even fearful.
A line of clear tears slowly flowed out. She bit her lip tightly, her pair of Phoenix eyes staring fixedly ahead.
"Faster, faster... Bastard, you are always like this. Did I need you to do this? Stop trying to move yourself, you bastard..."
While cursing in her mouth, the tears at the corners of her eyes fell like beads from a broken string, one drop after another. They were swept up by the surrounding breeze, drifting to unknown places.
"You must not die..."
... An entire night. Above Shrek Academy, the golden ancient tree barrier became increasingly dim. Mu En, who was upon it, was also covered in wounds, long having lost the majesty of the previous night. His originally jet-black long hair was now completely dyed snow-white, and even the tips were stained with traces of blood.
His figure was hunched over excessively, and he coughed up blood from time to time. Behind him, the shadow of the Bright Holy Dragon was also so dim it was almost ready to shatter at a touch.
In contrast, Ye Xishui opposite him was also fighting with a pale face, clutching her chest, forcibly suppressing her injuries. The Death God Tower behind her had been crushed into dust, and it was unknown where it had fallen. She was also at the end of her rope.
They were just waiting for the other to reveal a trace of a flaw and then decide the outcome.
On Long Xiaoyao's side, Du Busi had lost an arm, and the majestic green giant had already become a bloody figure. Xuan Zi had also lost half his life, and one of his Taotie horns had been forcefully snapped off.
Although Long Xiaoyao was not having an easy time either, compared to the others, his complexion was quite good.
Lu Cheng, the only focus of the entire scene, was also suffering from heavy injuries.
What made countless people feel puzzled was that he had clearly crushed Elder Song, Xian Liner, and Qian Duoduo, and with just one Martial Soul that was like a great sun, he had suppressed Shrek until they couldn't catch their breath, yet he was like a deflating ball, growing weaker and weaker. More and more powerless.
Even though the three of them, including Elder Song, had suffered not-insignificant injuries, it shouldn't have been this miserable...
And just as dawn was about to break, Du Busi and Xuan Zi exchanged a look. Their bodies suddenly expanded, and like madmen, they flew toward Long Xiaoyao, the meaning self-evident. Self-detonation!
