Chapter 75 - Against Spirit Hall 1

Having all the other matches finished, now there were only 10 teams in the tournament. Before closing the competition from today, it will be decided the next day matches.

"I want the next opponents to be strong" said Mayi.

"Calm down, Mayi. There are only 10 teams left. More or less we have 50% of a possibility to go against a strong one" I reassured Mayi.

"The best will be fighting against another weak team, hiding and keeping our strength" said Yan.

"There are 4 teams left with at least all team at spirit ancestor. I only want that we won't fight against Spirit Hall. There's very little information about them and I would have preferred to see one of his matches" Tianheng commented.

It seemed that Tianheng jinxed it, our rivals were decided to be the favorite winners of the tournament, Spirit Hall team.

This third round was very messed, two seeded teams against each other and the other seeded versus the first ranked team, Shrek vs Star Luo. This will permit to weak teams to pass the round, it will be a joke if some of these teams arrived at the finals.

It was a little funny to see the contrast between Mayi and Tianheng's faces, Mayi smiling brightly while Tianheng had a look of despair.

"Tianheng, they are the same, they won't have information about us. A difference of 1 spirit king is not a lot in a team fight. Trust a little in your training!" I encouraged.

"I wanted to hide you as a support system, disconcerting the rivals. But it seems that we should go full strength" Sighed Tianheng.

"We are unlucky, but the same goes for the other team. We will finish the tournament in this round" I told.

Lingling smiled and lifted her hand. We all joined hand and we lifted high shouting "For victory!"

We had a good rest and we prepared for tomorrow. The next day we went to the stadium.

"This match is one of the most expected ones, two seeded teams, the strongest representative of Heaven Dou against the representative of Spirit Hall. Not only that, it will be a fight between the only spirit kings in the tournament. Both teams the favorites to win this. Without more preambles let's cheer for both teams and expect a great match!" the announcer shouted "First enter Heaven Dou Imperial team!"

We entered the ring, our formation was Mayi and Shi Mó at the front as defender, after them was Tianheng as a heavy hitter who would take advantage of the people blocked by Mayi and Shi Mó, behind him, Yan, supporting with her poison, and Osler, who will attack with speed, then me, debuffing the contrary team and protecting mine. and behind all of us was Lingling responsible for healing.

"On the other hand, Spirit Hall enters!" shouted the announcer, this time with more passion, it was simple to see great favoritism for Spirit Hall, normal taking place in their capital. Spirit Hall team entered, they have a formation of 2-1-4.

For the information I could gather, the important ones are the three at the front, all of them spirit kings with less than 25 years, they are named the golden generation. The two at the front were Xie Yue and Yan, both the power attack system.

Xie Yue was a tall man, with black spiked like needles hair, he had a serene look at his face. He was the captain of the team, I knew that his spirit was a sword type, but I didn't know exactly what or his attainment in the sword arts.

Yan was also a tall man, with long straight red hair and eyes, he exuded an intangible temperament. His spirit was some fire-related one.

Hu Liena was a girl with long black hair, at first she didn't seem especially beautiful, but she exuded some special charm that would inadvertently attract you. She was the control master of their team, her spirit being a fox.

For the four people at the rear all seemed average, with different hair colors and styles, they didn't make any powerful impression. All four were supporting the other three. This year Spirit Hall team was focused on the 4 at the front, the other only for support.

"So you are the best of this tournament" Hu Liena said with a charming voice smiling "It will be fun to play with you"

"Ignore her" Tianheng said.

I noticed Mayi trembling, I was worried until I saw her face, she was grinning looking forward to the battle. I positioned myself waiting for the start.

"Show your spirits!" shouted the announcers. This time we all activated our spirits. I could see their spirit closer. Yan's spirit was a beast spirit, improving his strength and gaining flames. Hu Lienas grew a pair of fox ears, and a charming aura surrounded her. For Xie Yue, he invoked two curved red blood swords that resembled a half-moon, being a duel wielding sword.

From Xie Yue's sword, I could sense I powerful intent, that will improve its sharpness and power, but it didn't go further than that. It was no near domain realm. It seemed that he favored his spirit cultivation over his sword, the normal path. I could keep up only thanks to the Normal Oreo, and the help of Paul who only could focus on the sword, not being accessible to cultivate energy.

"Start!" The announcer shouted.

Xie Yue and Yan charged forward, against Mayi and Mò respectively. Mayi and Mò looked at each other and nodded. They charged to stop their opponents, but they charged diagonally, creating a cross and changing their opponent.

"<2nd skill: Flame Hand>" Yan's yellow ring shined and the flames of his right arm grew, forming a two meters long hand made out of flames. Mayi punched it, causing it to explode in flames that engulfed Mayi while Yan retreated. After 2 seconds the flames vanished and it could be seen a completely fine Mayi, without any burn mark in her.

"<1st skill: Shining Moon>" Xie Yue attacked Shi Mó, his blades leaving a light afterglow.

"<2nd skill: Shield Form>" Mó invoked a big shield in front of him that stopped Xie Yue's attack but was being pushed by him "<1st skill: Electrick Shock>" his shield produced electricity that stroked toward Xie Yue who retracted evading it.

Xie Yue and Yan retracted at the same place "You're not bad, but how could you cope with this" Yue and Yan joined their hand, both of their spirits fused "<Spirit Fusion: Evil Lord Sword>" the fusion of both spirits formed a huge over 10 m sword, it was a dark red sword surrounded by powerful flames, it power was like a top spirit emperor.

They swung the sword, trying to sweep our front. I knew that Mó didn't have any change to stop it "Mó, change!" I shouted.

Mó's purple ring shined "<4th skill: Swapping>", just like that Mó and I changed our positions. I hold Mayi's hand using some of her spirit power, a fusion technique, don't mistake it for a spirit fusion, a simple fusion it was a lot less powerful. If a fusion was an adding, a spirit fusion was a multiplication.

My sword shined red and gray, activating my first and fourth skills, improving my power and defense, while lowering their. I white light exuded from my sword <Sword Domain: Protection>, boosting, even more, my defense. A black ring shined "<5th skill: Infinity Swords>" I pierced the air, it seems like if a was passing through the water creating a ripple. From the ripple shot a white sword, this one without any type of edge.

My white sword collided with their red sword. The clash produces sparks, flames surged in every direction, but were stopped by a white aura surrounding the white sword. After a second my sword overpowered the other one which dissipated. The white sword continued forward and was evaded by Yan and Xie Yue. It continued forward hitting one of the 4 support who couldn't react in time, he was pushed outside the ring crashing to a wall. He seemed fine thanks to the close to 0 piercing an attack power of it, only injured by the crash against the wall, but was nevertheless eliminated for abandoning the combat grounds.

I could see the shocked faces of Spirit Hall team, surprised that I not only could stop their spirit fusion but it didn't even stop my attack. Their shocked faces gradually changed for fury ones.

"How you dare!" Shouted Xie Yue.

"Calm down, brother" Hu Liena tried to appease Xie Yue. Hu Liena turned to me who was smiling at them "You will see what it means to be impotent against absolute power" she joined Yan and Yue.

The three of them hugged and started shining, Hu Liena in pink, Yue in white and Yan in red. I opened my eyes shocked "3 spirit fusion?!" I couldn't help to shout surprised.

Their auras started fusing until there was only one violet aura. It was a perfect fusion between their spirits, not like that half-ass attack of before that was only one attack with a partial fusion. In the place were they stood previously, now there was only one person. He had a kitsune mask hiding his face, a long platinum hair with white and red robes, he exuded strength, if I must calculate, I could sense a power of a spirit sage using their avatar form.

Knowing that it is a spirit fusion, they couldn't use any spirit ring technique, causing them to be weaker than an actual spirit sage, but their strength will be on part of one in avatar form, with their most strength.
