Chapter 193: Quick Cleanup

Chapter 193: Quick Cleanup

Boom!

A circle of elemental storm radiated outwards from Nel, sweeping across the arena.

The powerful energy blast immediately knocked out several weaker students!

As the storm dissipated, only Wang Si and his two companions remained, along with a mere five other students, two of whom were barely hanging on.

"I said it before, those with fragile defenses shouldn't participate in these class leader battles unless they have large-scale clearing skills."

Wang Si stood up and dusted off his hands, eyeing the three remaining students who had passed the physical qualification.

As for the two who lacked combat ability, they were already out without Wang Si lifting a finger.

He gestured to Nel and Nali, indicating for them to team up and take out the least notable of the remaining three.

Standing before Wang Si were a towering, brawny youth, clearly a pure power-type Soul Master, and a girl who had a hint of adorably clueless look on her face. Her presence here, however, spoke volumes of her strength.

Wang Si beckoned to the two.

"Come now, with the other weaklings out of the way, it's just the three of you. Work together and take me on."

The tall youth scratched his head, unsure how to react to Wang Si's provocation.

"What's going on, little brother? Is this an illusion, or did the other students just get wiped out instantly?"

As he pondered, the bulky student slowly approached Wang Si.

Unfazed by the other's act, Wang Si summoned his martial soul, flexing his wrists as he strode forward.

"Come now, fellow classmate, let's not be hasty. We can resolve this peacefully," the tall youth said, trying to stall.

But Wang Si was having none of it. He lunged forward without hesitation and threw a punch.

The bulky youth, who had been feigning simplicity, intended to play the part of a tiger disguised as a pig, or at least wait for Wang Si and the girl to weaken each other before swooping in.

However, he hadn't expected to encounter such a rash brute who didn't bother with pleasantries.

The young man sighed inwardly. Not everyone fell for his act, it seemed.

And this particular opponent wasn't a pushover either, as evidenced by his immediate martial soul manifestation.

In fact, as they traded blows, the bulky youth had secretly activated his own martial soul from the start, confident in his strength.

But...

Boom!

A figure went flying—the bulky youth who had released his martial soul and soul ring a moment too late.

"Sheer toughness isn't enough. Your strength pales in comparison to mine," Wang Si commented.

The girl stood by, her eyes flicking between Wang Si and the two girls battling the powerful offensive-type Soul Master.

Unconcerned by her assessment, Wang Si turned his attention to the Soul Master with the Adamantine Bear martial soul.

The youth who had traded punches with Wang Si earlier could only shrink back, his right arm dangling uselessly. Fear was written all over his face.

"Sometimes, when you try to be a tiger in sheep's clothing," Wang Si began, "the question isn't whether you're a pig or not. Perhaps you can take on a tiger, but what if it's a dragon? Then you might not fare so well."

Wang Si's second soul skill activated.

A dragon's roar erupted from his mouth, filling the air with an overwhelming spiritual and bloodline pressure that caused the young man's expression to twist in fear.

The youth tried to counter, but a kick to his neck sent him spiraling into unconsciousness.

When he awoke, he found himself back in the martial arts arena, the battle seemingly over.

Nel and Nali had finished their fight, leaving only four people standing.

"I can't take it anymore, my stomach hurts so badly. I'll withdraw first, you guys take your time," she said, and with a decisive flash of white light, she truly did leave the arena.

Wang Si was left a little speechless by this, but if that person wanted to leave, so be it. If she didn't want to be a class leader, then so be it.

"You guys fight it out. I'll just watch from the sidelines and won't interfere," Nali said as she sat down to enjoy the show.

Hearing this, Wang Si remained silent, his gaze calm as he looked at the girl before him.

"Although I'd like to have a fair and just fight with you, there are definitely quite a few students watching us from outside... "

In the outer martial arts arena, the crowd of students watching the live broadcast felt a bit embarrassed and rubbed their noses.

"... So, you make the first move. I'll let you attack me three times, and if after three moves..."

The girl's body suddenly became ethereal, as if she had no intention of being courteous to Wang Si at all.

As for the fact that her opponent was giving her three moves, that was something he had offered, and what could she do about it? She could only oblige.

One circle, two circles, three circles, four circles—a total of four soul rings rose from the girl's feet and quietly encircled her.

Four soul rings, all of them purple, indicating a thousand years of cultivation.

The first soul ring shone.

In a flash of movement, the girl's speed suddenly surged, and like a bolt of lightning, she appeared before Wang Si in the blink of an eye.

The first soul ring faded, and the second one immediately shone, causing the girl to soar like a spirit cat, her claws leaving countless afterimages.

Wang Si raised his arms to protect his eyes from the attack, allowing the blows that couldn't penetrate his scales to land on him as he waited for this move to end.

After the move was over, the girl saw that Wang Si didn't seem to have any intention of counterattacking, so she shouted again, and her body became even more ethereal.

At the same time, an indescribable sharpness emanated from her body, which now seemed almost transparent.

The girl brought her hands together, lifted them above her head, and brought them down!

A huge black light blade appeared out of thin air and descended, ruthlessly slicing onto Wang Si's arms.

The black light blade scraped against the golden scales, creating sparks.

Finally, the light blade shattered, but not before leaving a thin line of blood on Wang Si's arm.

Wang Si rubbed his arm and couldn't help but sigh.

"Is that all you've got? I'd be disappointed if that was your strongest attack."

Wang Si shook his arm and couldn't help but chuckle.

Seeing the thin line of blood on Wang Si's arm, the girl swallowed nervously.

She was just about to switch to her second martial soul, but then she remembered how the person before her had just taken a punch head-on without flinching, and so she quickly abandoned the idea of using her second martial soul to fight him.

That person had tried to play the tiger and ended up being countered without hesitation, and she certainly didn't want to follow in their footsteps.

The girl prepared to use her trump card—a self-martial soul fusion skill.

As her martial soul, the Ghostly Dark Cat, took form, a white tiger shadow slowly appeared behind her.

Then, the Ghostly Dark Cat soul separated from her body, and behind her, the black and white colors began to intertwine and merge.

Finally, a majestic Flying Tiger with black and white stripes emerged behind her.

The tiger shadow charged towards the girl, and in the next moment, her body disappeared, replaced by a winged tiger.
