Chapter 10: Shadow Martial Spirit (3)
🕑 Added 2025-04-19 13:41:18 +0000 UTCNot only the three members of the Education Committee and Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, but also Yu Tianheng and the other seven people set their eyes on Lu Buliang, watching him walk up to the fighting spirit stage step by step, and everyone was in a very quiet state.
Yu Tianheng and the other four had already seen Lü Buliang, so they didn’t think there was anything strange about it. However, it was the first time for Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling to see him, so they were confused for a while before they realized that this new student should be Lü Buliang.
Watching Lü Buliang approaching quietly, Dugu Yan chuckled disdainfully, “You are Lü Buliang? Teacher Qin Ming praises you so highly, but you don’t seem to have anything special about you.”
When he came to Dugu Yan, Lu Buliang just glanced at her without replying. He swept his eyes over Yu Tianheng and the others before saying to Dugu Yan, “No matter what your attitude is towards my joining, we are teammates when we stand together. If you have any dissatisfaction, we can talk about it later. At present, our enemy is Teacher Shi Gao, and we should be united in facing the enemy.”
“Stop talking nonsense.” Shi Gao shouted from the other side of the fighting arena, “Hurry up if you want to fight. I still have to go to other classes.”
As the captain, Yu Tianheng must of course persuade his companions to put aside the barriers in their hearts. “Yanyan, Lu Buliang is right. Standing together and facing difficulties together is what makes us comrades-in-arms. At this moment, let’s deal with the enemy in front of us first.”
“Okay then. Lu Buliang, I want to see what role you can play in Lingling’s place.” After replying, Dugu Yan helped Ye Lingling walk down from the fighting arena and let her rest next to Qin Ming.
After Dugu Yan stepped onto the stage again, her face no longer showed dissatisfaction with Lü Buliang. As the vice-captain, she could of course distinguish between the primary and the secondary. She showed dissatisfaction with Lü Buliang just to stand on the side of her good sister Ye Lingling unconditionally. Now that they are fighting together, they should put aside their past grudges. Otherwise, how can they leave their backs to their teammates?
On the fighting spirit stage, Lü Buliang replaced Ye Lingling and stood behind everyone. At the front of the formation were the Shi brothers of the defense system and Yu Tianheng of the strong attack system. On the left and right sides were Yu Feng and Oslo of the agile attack system. In the middle was Dugu Yan of the control system. The seven people quickly formed a formation to cooperate.
Soul rings unfolded one after another, and each other’s soul power was released and blended in the body, finally dyeing half of the fighting arena light blue.
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, the Black Tortoise, the Wind Chimebird, the Green Phosphorus Snake, and the Ghost Leopard, the seven people’s martial spirits and spirit rings flashed continuously, and the blended spirit power aura suddenly exploded and rushed in all directions.
Seeing that the seven people had completed the spirit possession, Shi Gao smiled and said, “Very good, continue to maintain this fighting spirit. This is the pride of Heaven Dou Royal Academy.”
However, what puzzled Shi Gao, the three education committee members, and Xue Qinghe was why there were only three soul rings on Lu Buliang’s body, but no martial soul appeared?
Shadow. Xue Qinghe was so careful that he guessed that Lu Buliang had already been possessed by his martial soul when he saw the shadow under his feet. No, it should be said that as long as there was light, his shadow martial soul would always be in the state of martial soul possession. This was really a special martial soul.
Under the fierce sunlight, on the floor of the fighting arena, there was not only the shadow of Lü Buliang, but also the shadows of Yu Tianheng and six others. Lü Buliang’s first soul ring flashed, and Yu Tianheng and six others were shocked at the same time, as if they were locked by some force.
This feeling was exactly the locking effect of Lu Buliang’s first soul skill. Lu Buliang not only locked onto his comrades, but also the shadow of Shi Gao on the opposite side.
Shi Gao had the same feeling. As someone with rich combat experience, he naturally knew that it was the enemy’s soul skills that were at work.
But, so what? Every soul master is extremely confident in his expertise, and Shi Gao is no exception. Even if his shadow is really locked by Lu Buliang, he will still stand there motionless, waiting to see how these seven little brats will shake his defense.
The next moment the shadow was locked, a voice appeared in Yu Tianheng’s mind, “Group attack.”
Group attack means that everyone attacks Shi Gao.
The person who made this sound was Lu Buliang.
Yu Tianheng glanced at Lu Buliang who was behind Dugu Yan and found that he didn’t say a word at all. The voice didn’t come from his ears, but sounded directly in his mind.
What is going on?
Dugu Yan, Oslo and others also looked at Lu Buliang. Apparently, they also heard the sound of “group attack” in their heads.
Suddenly, Lu Buliang’s voice appeared in Yu Tianheng’s mind again, and this time the voice conveyed the effects of Lu Buliang’s three soul skills.
So that’s it. After Yu Tianheng understood the information that appeared in his mind, he finally understood that Lu Buliang’s first soul skill, Locking, could not only lock shadows within a certain range, but also convey information through shadows.
Although this information is transmitted in one direction and can only be transmitted to them by Lu Buliang and they cannot transmit it to Lu Buliang, Lu Buliang can still spy on their thoughts through their shadows.
In this way, the seven people formed an information sharing network under the connection of shadows.
The thoughts In Lu Buliang’s mind were simultaneously conveyed to Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan, as well as Oslo, Yufeng, Shimo and Shimo.
Now they already know that what is acting on them is not only Lu Buliang’s first soul skill, Locking Shadow, but also his second soul skill, Shadow Attack.
“Turn into a shadow? Is it possible for the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon to turn into a shadow?” Yu Tianheng looked at his hands in disbelief. The information sent by Lu Buliang told him that with the assistance of the second soul skill Shadow Attack, he could move like a shadow.
Yu Tianheng tried to use his mind to make his feet dive into the shadow beneath his feet.
To his surprise, the floor was as soft as water and his feet actually sank into the floor. No, to be precise, his feet sank into the shadow.
Dugu Yan and others also succeeded in their attempt. Right in front of Lu Buliang, Yu Tianheng and the other six all escaped into the ground and turned into six black shadows.
Seeing a living person disappear without a trace, Shi Gao and the three education committee members in the audience were shocked.
The moment they successfully escaped into the shadows, Yu Tianheng and the other six had completely trusted the information sent by Lu Buliang. They knew that within half an hour, they would not only be able to move like shadows and move freely between shadows within a hundred meters, but they would also be able to use their own martial spirits and spirit skills.
Additionally, while in Shadow State, their Attack and Speed attributes are increased by fifty percent.
“Shadow Attack, this is Lu Buliang’s soul skill. No wonder he has attack and speed that are not inferior to the agility attack system, and he suddenly appeared from my shadow last night.” Oslo sighed in his heart, what will happen if the attack and speed are increased by 50%, and then he uses Leopard Shadow Clone and Leopard Shadow Flash in the shadow state?
All six people turned into shadows and disappeared into the ground. At the same time, they also realized the meaning of “group attack”.
It turned out that Lu Buliang wanted them all to go out and fight. No one needed to protect anyone else, and they could fight, attack, and sneak attack as shadows.
Any fighting style is fine as long as you can defeat your opponent.
And Lu Buliang does not need anyone’s protection because he can also transform into a shadow and escape into the ground.
While maintaining the lock of the first soul skill, Lu Buliang will also use the third soul skill, shadow control, to control the battle situation and control or assist the shadows of enemies or friendly forces.
Auxiliary and control, both positions are simultaneously possessed, this is the uniqueness of the Shadow Martial Soul.
Attack!
It’s a simple word, but its meaning is very clear.
After receiving Lu Buliang’s order in his mind, the six people including Yu Tianheng who were lurking on the surface swarmed out in the form of six black shadows and rushed towards Shi Gao at lightning speed.
Shi Gao concentrated his mind, his eyes fixed on the six shadows attacking from the ground. The six shadows separated in the process, each attacking in a different direction, and their speed was so fast that it was difficult to notice the movements of the six shadows at the same time with the naked eye.
As his mental power became more and more concentrated, Shi Gao discovered that he could not rely on his mental power to sense the fluctuations of the soul power of the six shadows.
“That new soul skill can actually block mental detection?” Shi Gao’s strong body didn’t dare to stand there any longer, and immediately took a fighting stance.
At this moment, a black shadow appeared from behind Shi Gao. It was the ghost leopard Oslo. With the blessing of his second soul skill Leopard Shadow Flash, and the 50% speed increase of Shadow Attack, his speed was already the fastest among those present.
The sharp claws suddenly chopped down towards Shi Gao’s back. Shi Gao was no ordinary man. He turned around and used his strong arm to block Oslo’s claw attack, and used his other arm to smash Oslo’s face.
Looking at the fist so close to him, Oslo smiled calmly. With his current speed, he could easily avoid the attack of the fist, but he didn’t need to do so.
Because the shadow state can not only block mental detection, but also be immune to physical attacks. Let’s ask, if you use fists, feet, or knives to attack the shadow, will the shadow be injured?
As expected, Shi Gao’s fist hit Oslo’s face and passed through Oslo’s body as if it hit a disembodied soul.
This scene finally made Shi Gao panic, because the time of attack is when the defense is the weakest. He is not only facing Oslo, but also the other six people. This is a team battle.
“Teacher Shi, do you want to look behind you?” Oslo kindly reminded.
