Hua Ruge was startled, then asked: "You mean that big sized guy? a stage seven earth element Soul Master? "
She had seen that big guy during the collective training. It was said that he was very strong and abnormal. She didn't expect to meet him in her first battle.
"It's him. I think you should admit defeat." Su Nianxia shook his head: "If I meet him, I definitely won't be able to beat him."
Hua Ruge looked a little troubled. "Tell me exactly how powerful he is."
"He is one of the best students in Bi Tong Academy. He and Song Ming are both legendary figures. Let's talk about him. Although his talent is only at the sixth rank, his affinity for earth elements is extremely high."
Someone with the same talent will not be as fast as him, someone with the same cultivation is not as strong as him, and someone with the same attack is not as accurate as his soul technique. " Su Nianxia explained in a simple manner.
Hua Ruge listened attentively.
"The most difficult thing to deal with is that his defensive power is comparable to a meat shield, even a sixth step soul skill probably can't break through his defenses." Su Nianxia comforted her as he patted her shoulder.
Hua Ruge finally understood what it meant to be above others.
If she didn't reveal her strength, it would be extremely difficult for her to win.
"Not only him, there are also many formidable opponents from commoner academies. Their physiques are often better than ours, but their resources can't keep up." Su Nianxia sighed.
Hua Ruge silently thought about his next move.
Su Nianxia saw that she was deep in thought and did not disturb her.
On the other side, there was a wooden board with the names of the two contestants already hung on the board next to the third stage, indicating that the two of them would immediately start the match here.
This was the largest arena in the capital, with ten stages side by side. They were all used for competitions today.
There were tens of thousands of spectators below, and the cheers were deafening and inspiring. As the competition had just begun, the arbitration was a temporary official sent here. It was said that the Emperor would be present during the finals to personally conduct the arbitration.
The first two stages of the competition were the stages. Hua Ruge was ranked third, so he had a lot of time to think about strategy.
The first two matches were between Battle Master s. Because the difference in strength was not too great, they fought for a long time.
There was a casino next to the competition arena. Sitting there and watching the match, he had bet more than half of his money on it. That was why he had been so engrossed in it and had been so crazy to watch it.
Hua Ruge thought for a while, then called Mao Jun who was beside him: "Brother Mao, please help me."
"You're too embarrassed to admit defeat, right? I'll go help you." Mao Jun said as he walked towards the Arbitration Station.
"Come back." Hua Ruge called him back unhappily, then asked: "What's my payout rate for the gambling house over there?"
"Shi Yan is 1: 1.2. You are 1: 10." Mao Jun was always paying attention, so he did not mind.
Hua Ruge looked at him and asked: "Did you bet on Shi Yan winning?"
Otherwise, why would he be so eager to make himself admit defeat?
Mao Jun scratched his head in embarrassment: "Brother Hua, since you can't win anyways, brother can just earn some pocket money."
He was quite direct.
Hua Ruge thought to himself, why did I have to make such a bad friend, to actually cheat me like this.
"Make a bet for me too." Hua Ruge took out an Purple Crystal Card.
Mao Jun nodded in understanding: "I knew you weren't an old-fashioned person, and it wouldn't be a one-on-one match anyway. I will bet all on Shi Yan, and then we will earn a lot."
"Who asked you to bet all on him, on me. One hundred thousand gold coins." Hua Ruge hardened his face as he said this: "I despise this young master, this young master will let him go bankrupt."
"Bro, you weren't provoked, right?" Mao Jun asked worriedly.
"Hurry up and go, we won't be able to suppress them if we go on stage." Hua Ruge urged.
Mao Jun still wanted to advise him otherwise, but unfortunately, Hua Ruge had made up his mind and could only go.
Not far away, Shi Yan was already in the waiting area, not even twenty years old. He had a height of 1.9 meters, and was not fat, but his body was very sturdy, probably around 300 kilograms.
He wore brown pants with no Soul Master Robe on the upper half of his body.
Other people thought that he did it to show off his muscular body, but Hua Ruge felt that his Soul Master Robe wasn't that big of a possibility.
On the other hand, although Hua Ruge had grown by no more than 1.75 meters, his body was well-proportioned and he wore a fire attribute Soul Master gown. His skin was fair and dazzling.
The two of them walked up the stage from both sides, the spectators all felt that Hua Ruge was really courageous to go up on stage.
"I am Hua Ruge. Please advise me." On the stage, she greeted him politely first.
"My name is Shi Yan. I don't know how to say courteous words, come and fight." Shi Yan said with a voice as loud as a bell, and was about to attack.
Hua Ruge was stupefied, wasn't he being too direct?
She had originally wanted to use the opening scene to get information on Shi Yan, but now that her pretense had failed, she could tell that he was a straightforward person.
"Brother Shi's reputation is like thunder in my ears. The Earth Soulcast is extremely powerful." Hua Ruge was not disturbed by his actions.
Seeing her praising him, Shi Yan subconsciously wanted to continue listening to her. This could be said to be a subconscious reaction.
"But I also know a bit about the Earth Soulcast. You and I are considered as martial artists today, and I only use the Earth Soulcast to compete with you, what do you say?" Hua Ruge said.
Shi Yan asked doubtfully, "You want to compete with me in the Earth Element?"
"Yes, in order to be fair, I only use the Earth Soulcast." Hua Ruge confirmed.
The spectators below the stage thought that Hua Ruge had gone crazy. Even if she used the Fire Soulcast she was most proficient in, she would still not be a match for Shi Yan.
"That's what you said. Don't regret your loss." Shi Yan said.
He also knew that this would be very disadvantageous for Hua Ruge.
"Of course." Hua Ruge readily promised.
"Little big brother, what are you doing? I don't understand."
Su Nianxia muttered from below. She previously thought that she was pretty smart, but ever since she met Hua Ruge, she felt that her brain was obviously not enough.
Mao Jun also shook his head.
Yan Zixing responded, "The method is correct, but it's even more difficult to win."
Hearing that, the two of them hurriedly came over, but Yan Zixing did not say anything else.
Mao Jun had the urge to strangle him.
On the stage, the two were ready.
Without saying a word, Shi Yan first bared his fangs, and then countless earth spikes shot out from the ground.
Hua Ruge took a step forward and a bright yellow halo appeared, blocking Shi Yan's almost instantaneous release of the third stage Soul Master.
It had to be said that the essence and blood element were different. The Soul Summoning Technique was much faster than ordinary people.
Shi Yan did not expect that Hua Ruge's speed was only slightly slower than her own. It was a little inconceivable.
He quickly reacted, and slapped the ground under Hua Ruge's feet: "Earth Splitting Technique."
Unexpectedly, he only prepared the Earth Shattering Spell of the fifth step for a short period of time.
The moment he shouted, the ground in front of Hua Ruge started to crack violently, and an opening suddenly appeared, swallowing her whole.
"Nothing will happen to him, right?" Su Nianxia gasped in surprise.
After a moment of shock, Hua Ruge held onto the crack door with one hand, the strength in his arm made him jump out, to the side.
"The Soul Master actually has this kind of skill, not bad." Shi Yan said sincerely.
"No matter how powerful I am, I'm not as strong as you."
"I'm going to beat you." Shi Yan said, and then said: "Supergravity Field."
Immediately, Hua Ruge felt that there were many people pressing down on his shoulders, making it difficult for her to even take a step.
"Earth Splitting Technique."
Taking advantage of how difficult it was for Hua Ruge to move, Shi Yan used another move. Fortunately, the space was large enough, otherwise, they would have to change locations after tearing two holes in the ground.
This time, Hua Ruge could not move, and could not even dodge.
"Anti-gravitational skill." Hua Ruge immediately said, and then felt his body becoming lighter.
By this time the crevasse had spread to her feet.
Hua Ruge immediately rolled over and dodged the Earth Splitting Spell that was getting stronger and stronger. He lifted his hand to retaliate.
"Earth Spike!"
As soon as she finished speaking, countless earth spikes shot out from the ground.
Shi Yan stomped his foot on the ground, using the Earth Shield to dissolve it, and started to prepare the soul technique.
Naturally, Hua Ruge could not let him prepare the Rank 7 soul art, so she continued to use her little soul technique to disrupt him, preventing him from concentrating. As long as he did not have the rank 7 soul technique, she could deal with him.
The Earth Soulcast could deal a lot of damage to the group. After using a large area of Gravity Spell on the battlefield, the damage caused by the Earth Splitting Spell or Earth Spike was immeasurable.
But it was not suitable for individual combat, especially against someone like Hua Ruge who was familiar with the Earth Soulcast. He could even more so predict danger through the change in elements, which made it harder to get injured.
The reason why she did not use the other Soulcast was very simple, it was because she could not break Shi Yan's defense, and could only increase her own consumption.
As a result, the two of them entered a state where neither of them could injure the other, nor were they injured.
The people below were stunned, they never thought that Hua Ruge had such precise control over his soul skills, and the time he prepared his soul skills was actually not any slower than Shi Yan.
"I didn't expect Little big brother's Earth Soulcast to be so strong as well, but whether the earth attribute attacks are strong or not, the two of them can only fight to see who's spirit is weaker." Su Nianxia discussed.
"Shi Yan is famous for his patience. I wonder if Brother Hua can hold on." Mao Jun said.
Yan Zixing glared at him and asked: "Do you wish to win or lose?"
"Of course I hope to win." Mao Jun asked anxiously.
Yan Zixing snorted: "It's probably the win from the gambling den."
Mao Jun was speechless. He never thought that Hua Ruge's Earth Soulcast would also be so heaven-defying. Even until now, Shi Yan still had a higher chance of winning.
Hua Ruge spoke out, "Stop for a moment."
Shi Yan's attainment in the Earth Soulcast was extremely high, and it was the first time he was unable to deal with someone lower than him in a match. He couldn't help but be a little flustered and exasperated, and asked impatiently after listening to Hua Ruge's words: "What's wrong?"
"There's no point in continuing to fight like this. It's just that whoever consumes all of their strength has already admitted defeat. It's too boring." Hua Ruge said.
Because he had a super affinity body, every time he prepared a soul technique, the amount of Spirit Force required was less than her own. In addition to his strong endurance, Element Body might not even be his opponent if he continued to waste energy on it.
