In the blink of an eye, a dazzling, blazing white halo rapidly expanded from Huowu's body.
However, what was peculiar was that when the halo swept past her teammates, its scorching flames didn't affect them.
The halo's expansion speed was extremely fast. Quan Yi quickly retracted his right hand, which he had raised to release a soul skill.
Quan Yi crossed his arms, bracing them in front of his chest.
However, a warm yet irresistible force directly pushed Quan Yi backward.
Instantly, Quan Yi was struck by the halo and sent flying off the stage, even propelled hundreds of meters away.
"Whoa!"
Everyone watched as the arrogant Quan Yi was instantly sent flying hundreds of meters, their eyes wide with disbelief.
In a matter of seconds, their mood swung wildly from the depths of despair to the heights of elation.
"Did we, did we win?"
Huo Wushuang looked incredulously at Wu Jie beside him, seeking confirmation of the victory.
Wu Jie was also in a state of stunned silence.
His stiff body hadn't recovered yet, so he could only nod stiffly in his dazed state.
Huo Wushuang and the others turned to face each other.
The excitement in their hearts was beyond words.
"We won!"
The crowd cheered and danced with joy.
Huowu, the greatest contributor to this victory, also laughed heartily, celebrating wildly with them.
Awesome!
Exhilarating!
The dense, impenetrable dark cloud that had been hanging over their heads was blown away.
The crowd, bathed in sunlight once more, felt as if they had been reborn.
"Hahahaha!"
The laughter of the crowd resounded throughout the clouds.
In the distance, Quan Yi, who had been sent flying hundreds of meters away, stared blankly at his body.
There was no injury, nor any pain.
His strength and soul power defense had been completely ineffective, and he had been sent flying hundreds of meters.
"What kind of soul skill is this?"
Quan Yi had never imagined that he would lose the battle in this way.
He had originally intended to use his fifth soul skill, Divine Judgment, to intimidate the crowd and make them fall into a state of stupor.
However, Quan Yi's mistake was being too careless and not using his soul skill at the first opportunity.
This moment of carelessness allowed Huowu to seize the opportunity and turn defeat into victory.
Quan Yi heard the laughter coming from ahead and smiled helplessly.
"You guys are laughing too loudly."
Quan Yi couldn't understand how important this victory was to the people he had been crushing for so long.
This could even become an important turning point for them to rebuild their confidence.
Quan Yi strode forward, and in a dozen seconds, he ran back to the crowd.
"Congratulations, this battle was a complete victory for you."
He generously applauded the crowd and humbly accepted defeat.
Huowu ran up to Quan Yi and said with a smile, "How about it? This is a special ultimate skill prepared just for you."
Among the team, the happiest was actually Huowu.
Because defeating Quan Yi was her long-cherished wish.
This plan, this ultimate skill, was something Huowu had been plotting for a long time.
To this end, their team had deliberately put on a posture of head-on confrontation, and Xinghuo's support was also deliberately divided into two parts, pouring into Huowu and Huo Wushuang.
All of this was to achieve a surprising effect.
Quan Yi affectionately stroked Huowu's hair and replied, "Amazing, I didn't expect it at all."
Huowu's Repelling Fire Ring was a completely unsolvable skill.
Even if Quan Yi used his Fire Spirit Body, he would still be sent flying directly by the Repelling Fire Ring.
"However, the range and height of your soul skill are too exaggerated, right? Is this the secondary awakening of the martial soul you mentioned before?"
The effect of the soul skill was certainly surprising to Quan Yi, but similar 'invincible' soul skills were not uncommon in the soul master world.
Compared to the effect of the soul skill, what surprised Quan Yi even more was the way the soul skill was cast.
The exaggerated height and range could not be possessed by a mere thousand-year soul skill. There must be other factors at play.
Soul Fusion, Xinghuo martial soul's support, Quan Yi knew their effects, but these alone could not amplify a thousand-year soul skill to this extent.
What was left was only the secondary awakening of the martial soul that he had never seen before.
Although that touch of silver-white was hidden in the blazing white of the martial soul, Quan Yi still noticed it the moment it was activated.
Huowu's aura doubled in that instant.
Moreover, it was an all-round improvement.
The Repelling Fire Ring must have such an amazing effect because of the secondary awakening.
This was simply like having an additional self-amplification soul skill out of thin air.
"That's right, with its amplification, I can unleash even more powerful power.
According to calculations, its amplification of combat power can reach 100%.
Not only that, but in this state, my control over flames will also increase linearly, allowing me to perfectly control the surging power. This is the most terrifying thing."
Now that the battle was over, Huowu revealed the information about her soul skill and secondary martial soul awakening to Quan Yi.
Hearing Huowu's description, Quan Yi shouted in his heart that Huowu was a monster.
However, at the same time, he was also happy for Huowu's progress.
He knew that Huowu had always had the obsession to defeat him in her heart.
However, even though he knew, he had never held back when fighting Huowu.
Because that meant that Quan Yi didn't believe in his heart that Huowu would catch up with him.
However, in the end, Huowu did not disappoint his expectations and grew into a powerful soul master who could compete with him.
"You two really know how to give me surprises." Wu Jie walked over and said with a gratified smile.
His gaze finally rested on Huowu, his eyes full of pride.
Facing the moment of despair, it was Huowu who reversed everything, and the excitement in his heart was no less than theirs.
"Dean!"
The elated crowd rearranged themselves in front of Wu Jie.
Wu Jie first looked at all the members of the seven-member team and said, "Congratulations, after a whole year of defeats, you have finally won a valuable victory today.
Although most of you have failed to play a significant role in this battle, your indomitable will is worthy of praise.
When facing an invincible opponent, you never retreated, never dodged, or gave up the fight.
By doing this, you have already defeated 99% of soul masters."
As he spoke, a look of pride flashed in everyone's eyes.
Their momentum also climbed step by step at this moment.
Wu Jie nodded in satisfaction. He knew that today would be the day the team was reborn from the ashes.
The team that had tasted defeat finally tasted the joy of defeating the strong today.
From now on, the desire for victory will be deeply buried in their hearts, constantly driving them to crave greater victories.
On the eve of the actual combat training, this unexpected battle brought new vitality to the entire team.
Looking at the high-spirited team members, Wu Jie nodded secretly.
Looking at this group of hungry beasts in front of him, he knew it was time to feed them more victories.
