Both teams took the stage. Tang San knew the captain of the Celestial Water Team was a level forty-three Control Type named Shui Bing'Er.
Next to Shui Bing'Er was a beauty who resembled her. The two were half-sisters, and she was named Shui Yue'Er, a level forty-one Agile Attack Type from the War Soul Sect.
Shui Yue'Er glanced at Ye Yu, her pretty face showing a hint of blush. This girl did not hide it at all; her beautiful big eyes just kept looking at Ye Yu.
Dai Mubai said, "Boss Yu, it seems this beauty likes you."
Ye Yu naturally noticed and sighed softly, "Being too outstanding can indeed be a headache."
Both sides released their Martial Souls, with a dim blue light enveloping Shui Bing'Er, dazzling and brilliant, making it hard to discern her Martial Soul.
Three Strong Attack Type members of the team showed blue scales, not dragon scales, but fish scales. Their lower bodies gradually transformed into beautiful fish tails, turning them into three mermaids.
The skin of the two Agile Attack Type members turned completely blue, resembling smurfs.
The match began; Tang San and his team's strategy was to attack. Blue Silver Grass wrapped around the waists of Xiao Wu, Dai Mubai, Talon, and Jing Ling, allowing the four to launch their attack.
Meanwhile, Ye Yu and Jiang Zhu were playing chess at the back of the team.
Tang San simultaneously unleashed Blue Silver Grass to entangle and control the opponents, allowing Xiao Wu and the four to better output. However, as his gaze met Shui Bing'Er's, Tang San immediately felt uneasy.
As Shui Bing'Er's First Soul Ring glowed, Tang San suddenly felt his body turn cold, instantly frozen, while Xiao Wu and the other four were also frozen.
Tang San was shocked, "Such strong control."
Although Tang San's constitution provided immunity to water and fire, it could only negate damage; natural control could not be negated.
At the same time, while playing chess, Ye Yu felt a refreshing chill, and opposite him, Jiang Zhu was frozen as well, her chess moves halted.
Ye Yu's eyes glanced at Shui Bing'Er, who, without knowing why, felt a jolt of fear in her heart, uneasy.
Rumble!
The ice sealing Xiao Wu and the others was shattered by the four as they broke free and rushed forward, but having been controlled, they had missed the prime opportunity.
At that moment, three Strong Attack Type members were ensnared by Blue Silver Grass, but Shui Bing'Er had already activated her Second Soul Skill, and blue armor appeared on the three, causing the Blue Silver Grass to start breaking apart.
Seeing Dai Mubai, the strongest attacker, charging at her, Shui Bing'Er used her Second Soul Skill on herself, blue battle armor appearing on her, while the blue light behind her fused with the armor, strengthening her defense even more.
With a muffled sound, Shui Bing'Er was merely pushed back a few steps, uninjured.
Tang San broke free from the ice and was just about to make a move when he was frozen again. Tang San was shocked by how fast the control was.
Meanwhile, a Strong Attack Type named Xue Wu began dancing gracefully in place, her four Soul Rings shining, and a canopy of dark clouds appeared above, covering the entire stage.
Soon, raindrops began pouring down strangely enough, while the members of the Celestial Water Team were unaffected as the drops slid off them, yet Tang San's team got soaked.
Crack!
The ice on Tang San once again shattered, and he immediately used his Fourth Soul Skill, instantly trapping Shui Bing'Er and her seven members in a Blue Silver Cage.
Although the Third Soul Skill consumed a lot of Soul Power, it was the only option.
Tang San didn't expect Shui Bing'Er's control power to be so strong; they were consistently frozen and completely suppressed, utterly passive. Breaking free from the ice required strength, time, and Soul Power.
Shui Bing'Er ignored the Blue Silver Cage and raised her hand to freeze Tang San once again.
Tang San was troubled by Shui Bing'Er's First Soul Skill which had extremely strong control, instant in execution. There was simply no way to evade; as long as she locked onto him with her spirit, he'd be frozen.
Tang San frowned, noting that the Blue Silver Cage did not hinder Shui Bing'Er from casting her Soul Skills, nor did it stop Xue Wu from dancing in place.
Dai Mubai and the other four attacked the seven that were trapped, but as they were shielded by armor, even if the Blue Silver Cage shattered, their attacks did not cause severe injuries.
Shui Bing'Er and Xue Wu stood together, and their Martial Souls merged into a blue-and-white beam that shot up into the clouds above.
Tang San's face changed dramatically: "Martial Soul Fusion Skill."
Tang San quickly pulled Dai Mubai and the others back, using Blue Silver Grass to entangle and wrap them up, and then another Blue Silver Cage to seal the five of them.
The rain in the sky suddenly turned into falling ice shards, sharp as blades.
As the ice shards fell, the ground was continuously cut, and the Blue Silver Grass was being sliced apart and then instantly frozen. If a god's body were sliced, the flesh would be instantly frozen, causing severe injury.
Ye Yu said, "Jiang Zhu, come under me."
"Okay."
Jiang Zhu swiftly crouched under Ye Yu, and Ye Yu bent slightly to protect Jiang Zhu beneath him.
The ice shards fell on Ye Yu's back, leaving no trace, not even able to leave an ice layer on him, which startled Shui Bing'Er and her seven teammates.
"Is it ineffective on him?"
"What a resilient body."
"Let's defeat Tang San and the others first."
Shui Bing'Er's Fourth Soul Ring glowed, causing the falling ice shards to gather. With a resonant cry, an icy blue Ice Phoenix appeared, diving towards Tang San and the five wrapped in Blue Silver Grass.
Tang San was shocked, realizing why Shui Bing'Er's control power was so strong; it turned out to be a top-tier Martial Soul, the Ice Phoenix.
The seven-meter-tall Ice Phoenix descended from the sky, its brilliant blue light illuminating the entire Fighting Soul Arena.
Tang San knew that if they stayed under the Blue Silver Grass, they would definitely be injured and had to counterattack.
As Tang San willed the Blue Silver Grass to withdraw, Shui Bing'Er's face changed slightly.
"Do you want to die? Surrender! If you get attacked by the Ice Phoenix, you'll be in great danger! Hurry and give up. I can still control the Ice Phoenix now, but soon even I won't be able to."
Tang San sighed inwardly, "Such a kind-hearted girl."
But he would not surrender.
Tang San prepared to use his Soul Bone Eight-Spider Spear, while Shui Bing'Er's face grew grave, "Oh no, I can no longer control the Ice Phoenix, they..."
In the next moment, Shui Bing'Er was stunned as a shadow flashed above, a foot striking the Ice Phoenix.
"Arooo!!"
With a pained screech, the Ice Phoenix flew sideways, crashing into the stone wall of the Fighting Soul Arena, creating a pit a meter deep and twenty meters in diameter. The pit and part of the stone wall were frozen.
Shui Bing'Er was shocked, and the shadow that landed turned out to be Ye Yu.
Ye Yu said, "You've disturbed my chess games multiple times; it's time for me to act."
Ye Yu walked towards the seven members of the Celestial Water Team step by step, their Soul Power heavily depleted, and their Martial Soul Fusion Skill had been kicked away by Ye Yu.
What remained of Shui Bing'Er's Soul Power couldn't contain Ye Yu, as he couldn't be frozen at all.
Ye Yu sighed lightly, "It's really refreshing."
Shui Bing'Er and Xue Wu had exhausted their Soul Power, and the Strong Attack and Agile Attack Types encircled Ye Yu, but their attacks had no effect on him, his body didn't move an inch.
Bam bam bam...
Ye Yu sent each one flying with a punch, shattering the blue battle armor on their bodies, causing them to fall beneath the stage.
Seeing the team of five teammates all knocked off the stage in the blink of an eye, Shui Bing'Er was horrified, "This... this strong?"
Xue Wu and the other team members could not believe it, how could he be this powerful?
At this time, in the audience, everyone had a horrified expression, extremely astonished, except for one, who after being shocked, was extremely anxious.
"How... how is he this strong? My chances with Huo Wu are over..."
