Zhao Wuji's thunderous roar jolted everyone back to reality.
Seeing the seventh soul ring on Zhao Wuji's body flash, Dai Mubai was shocked: Teacher Zhao actually used his Martial Soul True Body! He wouldn't have believed it if the profound black light wasn't right in front of him.
A Soul Saint using their Martial Soul True Body and one not using it were in entirely different states; the difference in their power was like the distance between heaven and earth.
Once Zhao Wuji used his Martial Soul True Body, he could use all soul skills except for the Martial Soul True Body itself without limit for thirty minutes, with a 150% increase in power.
Furthermore, the Giant Bear Martial Soul's Martial Soul True Body also came with a terrifying 200% increase in defense.
Under the black light's illumination, Zhao Wuji's already imposing body bulged rapidly, like a balloon being inflated.
In the blink of an eye, his height exceeded five meters. His muscles swelled in an exaggerated form, and his brown-yellow fur grew wildly. He transformed into a true giant bear.
When his body became bear-shaped, the brown-yellow fur instantly changed color, shimmering with golden light.
"So this is the Martial Soul True Body?" Xiao Yan watched intently, carefully assessing the difference between Zhao Wuji's current strength and his previous level.
Based on his knowledge of soul masters, once a soul master reached Soul Saint, they gained the Martial Soul True Body, a soul skill that created a massive power gap compared to the previous ranks.
Having witnessed it firsthand, Xiao Yan now had a general idea of the Soul Saint's power.
"Let's test him."
Xiao Yan raised his hand and aimed at Zhao Wuji's left arm. With a flick of his pinky finger, he unleashed a Shao Chong Sword.
The Shao Chong Sword was weaker than the other five swords, but its advantage was its agility and speed.
Zhao Wuji only heard a "whoosh" in the air, followed by a sharp sting on his now-bulky left arm, as if something had fiercely pricked him.
Looking down, Zhao Wuji saw a peanut-sized wound on his left arm.
In a single move, Xiao Yan understood. His Six Meridians Divine Sword, formless and intangible, was difficult to defend against, but its power was also formidable. It even had a significant effect on a Soul Saint who had activated their Martial Soul True Body.
At six years old, he was clearly far weaker in strength than Zhao Wuji, who was like a miniature Giant Bear Martial Soul. However, as long as he put his mind to it, killing Zhao Wuji would be a trivial matter.
"Damn it! It's like an eighty-year-old woman giving birth!"
Zhao Wuji stomped his foot in anger, having drawn blood despite using his Martial Soul True Body. His second and third soul rings flashed in succession.
The black-robed youth in front of him was only twelve years old, but he was full of oddities, always using strange and inexplicable techniques. He didn't even know how he'd been injured earlier.
The third purple soul ring merged into the ground, multiplying the gravity of the area several times.
"Boy, accept my palm with good grace," Zhao Wuji thought with a secret smile. His giant right hand, shimmering with golden light, slammed towards Xiao Yan.
Zhao Wuji felt no difference from the increased gravity here, having removed his weighted clothing.
After shedding tens of thousands of pounds of weight, whether it was five times or ten times gravity, it meant nothing to him.
Just right to test the upper limit of Waterfall Fury Tide's power.
The inner force in his meridians flowed rapidly. Xiao Yan swung his left hand, sending out a blue palm energy to meet Zhao Wuji's palm. His right hand followed with a palm strike, directly slamming into Zhao Wuji's body.
Seeing Xiao Yan use the same move again, Zhao Wuji's hand shone with golden light, his movements quickening.
Having activated his Martial Soul True Body, he was brimming with confidence.
The two distinct colors collided rapidly, producing a series of booming sounds.
Only after directly connecting with the blue light emitted by Xiao Yan did Zhao Wuji truly understand the boundless power it contained.
"No wonder he could break through my fifth soul skill, this thing is truly unbelievably strong. However, I am completely different from before."
With a sigh of admiration in his heart, Zhao Wuji pushed the power in his hands to the limit.
Under the amplification of the Martial Soul True Body state, the dazzling golden light broke through the blue light inch by inch, directly slapping Xiao Yan's head.
At the same time, his first soul ring flashed rapidly, and the yellow soul ring lit up, making Zhao Wuji's golden light even more dazzling.
Xiao Yan frowned as he raised his hand to meet Zhao Wuji's palm. This power…wasn't as powerful as he had imagined.
Seeing Xiao Yan being hit by the huge palm, Ning Rongrong exclaimed in worry, "Xiao Yan…"
After testing Zhao Wuji's strength, Xiao Yan reluctantly retreated three steps. There was no need to continue this battle.
"He's actually fine? This Xiao Yan has such great strength!" Zhu Zhuqing admired in her heart, seeing Xiao Yan unharmed.
Dai Mubai looked at the unharmed Xiao Yan in disbelief, "It seems the academy has really recruited a monster this time, and he's still fine after that?"
"Don't worry, this much power is nothing to Brother Xiao Yan," Xiao Xue said casually, sitting on a thick tree trunk and swinging her long, slender legs.
"What?!"
Dai Mubai and the others looked at Xiao Xue in disbelief. Could Xiao Yan's power be even stronger?
Is he even human?
Xiao Yan looked up at the enormous Zhao Wuji. The Waterfall Fury Tide had already slammed into Zhao Wuji's defensive soul skill.
With a flash of blue light, cracks immediately appeared on the Immovable King Body soul skill protecting Zhao Wuji. Under the immense impact, his giant body staggered backward a large step, his thick legs crashing into a large tree before he could regain his balance.
Crack! The protective golden light shattered completely.
Watching Xiao Yan remain calm and composed, Zhao Wuji thought to himself, What a little monster!
Seeing that Zhao Wuji didn't want to fight anymore, he quickly dispelled his Martial Soul True Body and coughed, "Xiao Yan, you should now understand the power of a Soul Saint. Even this teacher hasn't used his full strength. If I had, you'd probably be a pancake by now.
Although your strength is not bad, you shouldn't be arrogant. You have a lot more to learn."
With that, Zhao Wuji put his hands behind his back and left.
Xiao Xue glanced at Zhao Wuji's retreating figure and couldn't help but spit, "Shameless."
After Zhao Wuji left, Xiao Yan sat cross-legged on the ground, his eyes closed, occasionally swinging his arms as if sparring with the air, which looked quite mysterious.
"Xiao Yan, are you alright?" Ning Rongrong walked forward and asked with concern.
Xiao Xue and Xiao Yi jumped to Xiao Yan's side.
Xiao Xue stopped Ning Rongrong, explaining, "Brother Xiao Yan is comprehending the gains of this battle. Don't disturb him."
Ning Rongrong stopped and asked, "When will he be finished?"
Xiao Xue thought for a moment and said, "Brother Xiao Yan has gained a lot from this battle. It might take a few hours."
"That long!"
"This is short. Don't worry, Brother Xiao Yan isn't hurt."
Ning Rongrong had originally wanted to ask about how Xiao Yan trained his strength, but now, she sighed regretfully, "I'll have to ask tomorrow."
Zhu Zhuqing had the same thought. She was also very curious about how Xiao Yan cultivated his formidable strength.
