His body fell straight towards Lan Xuanyu while the battle axe in his right hand struck down.
This change was completely out of Lan Xuanyu’s expectations. Since when did this guy have this ability? Could it be from his Battle Armor?
One must know that Battle Armor’s greatest use was its defense, amplification. Battle Armors that came with soul skills were as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns. Or could it be that he had a soul bone? Was it a soul bone Soul Skill?
Everything happened so quickly that Bing Tianliang and Yuanen Huihui didn’t even have time to save him.
But at this moment, Lan Xuanyu displayed how thorough his transformation in battle was since Nana’s arrival.
With his left hand on the ground, his body that was flying backwards stopped. At the same time, he spun around and kicked Sima Xian’s battle axe with his right leg. At the same time, the golden scales on his body lit up. It was the second soul skill of his golden-patterned Blue Silver Grass, the Golden Dragon Tyrant Body.
Not only that, a red light flashed on his left hand that was supporting him on the ground and an explosive force burst forth from his palm. It immediately helped his body to rebound and brushed past the axe.
“Bang.” Lan Xuanyu’s kick landed on Sima Xian and he felt as though he was striking a metal plate. But this was within his expectations. He flipped his body horizontally and kicked his feet against Sima Xian’s muscular body twice. At the same time, he used the momentum to change his direction and escape.
However, Sima Xian, who was already close to him, wouldn’t give him a chance to escape. The fifth soul ring on his body shone brightly as he spun and unleashed his Dark Golden Hell.
If this hit Lan Xuanyu, it would be the end of the battle for him in an instant. The referee teacher was already preparing in the air. This was a real battle, and once he realized that Lan Xuanyu was unable to defend, he would immediately save him.
But right at this moment, a change occurred. Faced with the incoming large-scale crowd control soul skill, Dark Golden Hell, Lan Xuanyu appeared extremely calm. He rubbed his hands together and a ball of light appeared between his palms.
The three soul rings on his left arm lit up at the same time, and between his palms, a three-colored light flickered.
His legs were on Sima Xian’s body and he had already used his speed to rebound. At this moment, the three-colored light in his hand suddenly pushed towards Sima Xian and collided against his Dark Golden Hell.
“Boom!” There was a loud explosion and an extremely powerful shockwave burst forth. Even with the enhancement of his One-Word Battle Armor, Sima Xian’s attack actually paused for a moment and his body shook from the impact.
The audience watched as the blue, red, and green lights exploded. Then, a vortex appeared in front of Lan Xuanyu and sent him flying.
“Boom!” A second explosion followed as Dark Golden Hell smashed into the ground and the following moment, a dark gold light suddenly rose. The range was at least a third larger than when he used it without his Battle Armor.
Bing Tianliang appeared behind Lan Xuanyu and caught him before he retreated to the side.
Right at this moment, an ear-piercing howl resounded as a thick bolt of lightning struck towards Sima Xian.
While Lan Xuanyu and Sima Xian were entangled, Yuanen Huihui was already accumulating power. At this moment, he unleashed his fifth soul skill, the Thunder Spirit War Drums.
Amidst the intense explosion, Sima Xian was sent flying. Not only that, a second lightning bolt arrived just after and struck his body.
His Dark Golden Hell was ineffective and he was struck twice by Thunder Spirit War Drums. Sima Xian was sent flying over 20 meters and his entire body was charred black.
However, when his sturdy body landed on the ground, the dark gold light on his body erupted. He rolled and actually got up from the ground as though nothing had happened.
This scene stunned Lan Xuanyu. ‘This guy’s defense is actually so strong?’
Sima Xian’s gaze was ice-cold. Lan Xuanyu was stronger than before and was actually able to escape from his crowd control soul skill while fighting him head-on. That attack just now was definitely not inferior to another soul master’ four-ring soul skill. ‘Is this brat really only three-ring?’
Many people thought that the strongest defense-type soul masters among the third years were the two Black Tortoise Shield soul master brothers. But in fact, the reason why Sima Xian was able to convince them and even replace Tang Yuge’s position was because he defeated them in their strongest aspect.
The Dark Golden Skeleton King Martial Soul had given him a strong body with bronze skin and iron bones. Other than that, there was also his true trump card.
A layer of glaring dark gold color suddenly appeared behind Sima Xian and a strong figure that was as tall as him slowly separated.
Updated from novelhall[.]com
It was a tall skeleton with only bones in its entire body. The dark gold bones emitted a deep and malevolent glow, and at all the joints, there were bone spikes. In its right hand, it held a gigantic dark gold battle ax.
Split into two? He separated his Martial Soul from his body?
This scene caused Lan Xuanyu’s team to be in a daze. Although Lan Xuanyu had already guessed that Sima Xian definitely had a trump card and it should not be weak, he did not expect his trump card to be so strong.
The dark golden skeleton took a big step forward and let out a clang when it landed on the ground. It was as if all the bones in its body were made out of metal as it ran straight towards Yuanen Huihui. Sima Xian turned to Lan Xuanyu once again and strode forward.
Sima Xian came from an ancient family. Their bloodline was once the inheritance of an evil soul master in the early years, but they changed their ways and got on the right track.
When they were evil soul masters, their bloodline relied on refining human bodies to refine them into skeleton soldiers to strengthen themselves. After being nearly exterminated by Shrek Academy, the surviving descendants had never harmed any other human.s Their bloodline was also taken in by Shrek Academy and reeducated.
Sima Xian was a rare genius in the family. The dark golden skeleton that just separated from his body could be said to be his Spirit Soul, but it was completely different from ordinary Spirit Souls.
Usually, a soul master’s Spirit Soul would come from a soul beast or a man-made one. His was different; his Dark Golden Skeleton was an inheritance of his ancestor.
The original body of this dark gold skeleton was exterminated because of its evil deeds. But even after it was killed, this dark gold skeleton had remained.
Shrek Academy conducted many tests and after confirming that this dark gold skeleton didn’t have any evil soul master’s attributes, they returned it to his family that was taken in. When Sima Xian’s Martial Soul awakened at the age of six, it actually resonated with this dark golden skeleton. From that, his Martial Soul mutated and became the first Dark Golden Skeleton King Martial Soul in the family.
And from then on, this skeleton had become his Spirit Soul and helped him get many powerful soul skills. This wasn’t just a Spirit Soul, in a sense, it was an entire set of soul bones.
A complete set of soul bones usually included six parts: skull, torso, and the four limbs’ bones. This Dark Golden Skeleton obviously had all of them.
One of the main reasons why Sima Xian was able to replace Tang Yuge as the class leader was that the Dark Golden Skeleton in his body had awakened. It was awakened after losing to Lan Xuanyu’s team.
The effect of this awakening was that Sima Xian obtained his first soul bone skill, which came from the right arm bone of the Dark Golden Skeleton. It was the ability that allowed him to exchange with the axe light and appear next to Lan Xuanyu. In addition, this dark golden skeleton could separate from his body and become a second combat power.
When the Dark Gold Skeleton was separated from his main body, Sima Xian’s defense would be weakened, but with his One-Word Battle Armor, his overall defense would not be greatly weakened. This Dark Golden Skeleton possessed fighting instincts, and Sima Xian could even split his attention to control it. Furthermore, it possessed all of his soul skills. This was equivalent to having an additional him.
