Chapter 76 is so many?
The two teams stood facing each other in the center of the Battle Arena.
Yu Tianheng's gaze swept over the five people opposite him, especially lingering on Yan Zu, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuqing's faces for a moment. He nodded slightly as a greeting, his posture carrying the pride of the Royal Fighting Team.
Yan Zu calmly returned the gaze, his eyes lingering for a moment on Dugu Yan's slightly pale yet fiercely beautiful face before moving away.
The host began introducing the players from both sides, and each name announced was met with cheers.
After the introductions were completed, both sides retreated to opposite ends of the Soul Fighting Arena.
Yu Tianheng shouted in a low voice, "Royal Fighting Team, activate your Martial Souls!"
In an instant, the dazzling light of the spirit rings illuminated half of the arena. The yellow and purple spirit rings shone brightly, eliciting gasps from the audience. The combined aura of top-tier martial spirits created a powerful sense of oppression.
On the Dawn Team's side, their spirit rings also lit up.
Beneath Yan Zu's feet, three spirit rings—two yellow and one purple—rose, accompanied by the soft chirping of the Qilin Xiaoyu, spreading an auspicious aura. Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong both possessed two yellow and one purple spirit rings, their spirit power fluctuations solidifying. Zhu Zhuqing had two yellow rings. Oscar had two yellow and one purple rings.
Judging from the configuration of spirit rings, the Dawn team is clearly inferior, not only having two fewer players, but also having fewer thousand-year spirit rings.
Inside the VIP box, Manager Ao stroked his beard and smiled as he looked down at the audience: "The show is about to begin."
The referee walked to the center of the field, looked at the players on both sides who were ready for battle, and raised his right hand high.
"Both sides, prepare—"
Yu Tianheng leaned forward slightly, his Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Martial Soul manifesting, dragon scales appearing on his arms, crackling with electricity.
Yan Zu's gaze was calm, and he slightly raised his right hand to signal to his teammates.
Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing, like cheetahs poised to pounce, locked their gazes on the quiet figure at the back of the opposing team—Ye Lingling.
Dugu Yan's snake-like eyes were icy cold, and a turquoise poisonous mist was already swirling around her fingertips.
The entire audience held their breath.
"The match begins!"
The moment the referee swung his arm, the atmosphere in the main arena at the center of the Soto Arena suddenly became extremely tense.
"Seven treasures transform into crystal! First: Power! Second: Speed!"
Ning Rongrong's clear chanting almost overlapped with the referee's command. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda shone brightly, and two dazzling streams of light landed precisely on Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing. With the dual boost of power and speed, the soul power fluctuations around Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing instantly surged.
"First Soul Skill, Corridor of Life!"
Yan Zu activated his attack almost simultaneously. A pale green aura of life rippled outwards from Xiao Yu, quickly covering an area of twenty meters in radius and enveloping the entire Dawn Team.
A warm and powerful life force surged into his limbs and bones, not only continuously replenishing his soul power but also increasing his defense by 35%.
"Now!" Oscar shouted, his soul power surging in his hands. "I have a Thousand Illusion Semen!" Two sausages instantly formed, which he hurled at the two figures rushing towards him.
Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing caught the sausages with precision without turning their heads and swallowed them without hesitation.
With a soft "crack," as if some barrier had been broken, the two figures blurred and swayed—
In an instant, three identical "Xiao Wu" appeared beside her, wearing pink dresses and scorpion braids, with lively eyes, and even their soul power fluctuations were extremely similar, only weaker than the original, with only about 30% of the original's strength. These were the illusionary clones created by Oscar's "Thousand Illusion Clone Intestine," enough to deceive and confuse the eye.
But this is not over yet!
A pink light flashed in Xiao Wu's eyes, and her third purple spirit ring suddenly lit up. "Third Spirit Skill, Jade Rabbit Clone!"
With two soft "poof" sounds, two more "Xiao Wu" clones, with even more solid auras and more coordinated movements, separated from her main body! The strength of these two clones had reached about 70% of that of the main body!
Including the original body, there were a total of six "Xiao Wu" on the Soul Battle Stage at this moment! The original body was the strongest, followed by the two Jade Rabbit clones (70%), and the three Thousand Illusion clones were the weakest (30%). However, the six figures stood intertwined, with many pink shadows, making it difficult to distinguish between the real and the fake, instantly creating a dazzling sense of oppression!
On Zhu Zhuqing's side, strange phenomena were also occurring. After swallowing the Thousand Illusion Intestine, three chilling phantom images of "Zhu Zhuqing" appeared beside her. These four indistinguishable "Zhu Zhuqing" simultaneously assumed attack stances, their four pairs of icy cat-like eyes locking onto their target, creating immense psychological pressure!
"Wh...what?!"
"How is this possible?!"
"So many clones? Are you kidding me?!"
A tsunami of gasps and uproar erupted from the stands. Even the well-informed Manager Ao and Teacher Qin Ming in the VIP box couldn't help but stand up, their faces filled with astonishment.
Cloning-type soul skills do exist, but such an exaggerated number and realism are simply unheard of! This completely exceeds the capabilities of ordinary Soul Masters, and even Soul Sects!
Even though Yu Tianheng and the others were well-trained, the opening "surprise" still left them stunned.
They anticipated that the other side would have tactics, but they never expected it to start with such a "cheating" human wave tactic!
"Don't panic! The clones aren't strong, concentrate your attacks on the main body!" Yu Tianheng, being the captain, suppressed his shock and immediately shouted, "Graphite and Millstone, protect Lingling! Wind-Riding Osro, lock onto their main body's aura! Goose, cover them with poisonous mist, forcing them to reveal themselves!"
However, the Dawn Team's offensive had already begun during that slight delay!
"Azure Jade Protection!" Yan Zu's second soul ring lit up immediately, and a pale blue, crystal-clear light shield instantly covered Xiao Wu and Zhu Qing's clones along with their main bodies! Although the increased number of targets caused the strength of the individual shields to be somewhat dispersed, it still provided considerable defensive protection.
"superior!"
With Yan Zu's command, ten figures, indistinguishable from real ones, surged towards the Royal Fighting Team's formation like a startled swarm of bees or a bursting torrent!
The scene was completely chaotic!
Yu Tianheng locked onto Xiao Wu, who appeared to have the strongest aura (actually one of the Jade Rabbit's clones), and slammed down with his thunderous dragon claw. The clone nimbly dodged, and although it was grazed by the electric arcs on the edge of the dragon claw, causing the light shield to fluctuate violently, it did not shatter immediately. Instead, it fearlessly entangled itself with the clone.
As she soared into the sky on the wind, wind blades rained down, but she also faced a cross-attack from two "Zhu Zhuqings" at the same time, forcing her to divide her attention to deal with them.
Oslo tried to sneak around to the rear, but was surrounded by three "Little Dancers" laughing and joking. Although their attack power was not strong, their sudden kicks and harassment annoyed him.
The Graphite and Stone Mill brothers roared and slammed their tortoise-shell shields heavily into the ground, attempting to clear the area with shockwaves. However, two "Zhu Zhuqing" figures swept past the edge of the shockwaves as if they were weightless, their sharp claws scratching at the edge of the shields, producing a piercing scraping sound.
Just as Dugu Yan unleashed her Azure Phosphorus Serpent Venomous Mist, it was mostly dispelled by the auspicious aura aroused by Xiao Yu's dissatisfied snort. The remaining wisp of venomous mist enveloped the two "Xiao Wu" phantoms. The phantoms moved slightly slower, but still stubbornly lunged at her.
Meanwhile, Xiao Wu's main body, the other strongest Jade Rabbit clone, and Zhu Zhuqing's main body, under the cover of the clone army and the protection of the Azure Jade, were like three poisoned daggers, tearing through the defensive gaps created by the chaos in the Royal Fighting Team at an astonishing speed, and stabbing straight at Ye Lingling at the back of the formation!
"Their real target is Lingling!" Qin Ming shouted anxiously from the stands, but his voice was drowned out by the clamor of the audience and the explosions of soul skills.
