Chapter 51: Butterfly God's Execution and Fierce White Tiger (Part 2)

  The Bloodthirsty Magic Bear let out a furious roar as it felt pain, its massive body standing up on its hind legs. Its dull red eyes suddenly turned blood-red. As the fierce light burst forth, its already sturdy body expanded once more. Innate Skill: Bloodthirst.

  It's called Bloodthirsty Magic Bear because of the existence of this innate skill, and with the addition of the bloodline skill to its earth attribute, it becomes even more powerful.

  As soon as the bloodthirsty beast sprang into action, its fur was stained with a layer of red, emitting a strong bloody smell, and it pounced on Wang Dong again. At the same time, a pair of front paws burst out with intense yellow light.

  Wang Dong's double wings spread out, and with a forceful flap forward, he propelled his body backward. It seemed like he was trying to pull away from the Bloodthirsty Magic Bear.

  But the Bloodthirsty Magic Bear's speed increased dramatically after activating its bloodthirsty skill, and Wang Dong's retreat seemed to be a beat too slow. The bear's front paws didn't land on Wang Dong, but heavily struck the ground in front of him. Suddenly, a circle of intense yellow light burst forth.

  Bloodthirsty Magic Bear Earth Attribute Skill: Seismic Wave.

  There is a distinct difference between thousand-year soul beasts and hundred-year soul beasts, with the latter only possibly having long-range attack abilities, while the former must have either long-range or area-of-effect soul techniques.

  Earthquake Wave is the specialty of Bloodthirsty Magic Bear. Under intense shaking, not only can it make the opponent lose balance, but also produce a certain dizzy effect. As long as the Earthquake Wave takes effect, what follows is the time for Bloodthirsty Magic Bear to go wild.

  So when it cast Earthquake, two referees quickly approached and as soon as they found Wang Dong was hit by the earthquake, they would intervene at the first time.

  The battle between Soul Masters and Soul Beasts often lies in the difference of a single soul skill. A hit from a soul skill can change the course of battle, which is too common to see.

  Just as the Bloodthirsty Demon Bear's paws were about to strike the ground and release a shockwave, Wang Dong's Bright Goddess Butterfly's two hindwings suddenly lifted upwards while its forewings slightly pressed down. At the same time, his second soul ring lit up.

  His wings flapped forward, creating a backward airflow. In the brief moment that followed, he made another adjustment to his wings. Instantly, his retreating body was lifted up by the airflow, and in an instant, he rose more than three meters above the ground, his body parallel to the ground. Just as he flashed past the seismic wave. Moreover, the bloodthirsty bear that had dived down to strike the ground was now right below Wang Dong, its thick back fully exposed before his wings.

  The golden light spots on the iridescent blue wings of the Goddess of Light suddenly flashed brightly, and then, amidst that burst of golden light, a series of terrifying explosions resounded.

  Wang Dong's second soul skill. Also a thousand-year-old soul ring technique, Butterfly God's Light.

  The intense golden light of the Butterfly God's Light poured down almost without reserve on the Bloodthirsty Magic Bear's back. The series of violent rumbles was so loud that it felt painful to listen to! The Bloodthirsty Magic Bear had just finished launching its shockwave, and its own body was slightly delayed as well, unable to even dodge. When it was hit by the first blast of golden light, all it could do was curl up its body and use its thick back to withstand the Butterfly God's Light's explosion.

  The intense impact lasted for three seconds before it ended. Wang Dong's body drifted out, and at the same time, his dazzling blue double wings suddenly turned into a strong golden color, with both hands retreating from the front wing to the chest. The palms faced each other on either side of the chest. The third soul ring on his body shone brightly.

  A scarlet-gold light ball appeared between Wang Dong's palms, and under the violent flash of light. The scarlet-gold light ball was expanding at an astonishing speed, and in the blink of an eye, it had already grown to a diameter of over one foot. Around the scarlet-gold light ball, there were also strong golden electric lights swirling around, illuminating Wang Dong's entire person, turning him completely gold.

  The golden wings behind Wang Dong continued to flicker with curved golden light, merging into the crimson-golden light sphere, causing its volume to constantly increase and intensify.

  The Bloodthirsty Demon Bear had already fallen to the ground under the Butterfly God's consecutive attacks. Although it was defending with all its might, the Thousand Year Soul Technique was not so easily resisted. The skin on its back split open and its entire back was dyed red with blood, even its Bloodthirsty skill was interrupted.

  But as a thousand-year-old earth-type soul beast, the Bloodthirsty Demon Bear's ability to withstand attacks was also extremely strong. The Butterfly God's Light had not completely deprived it of its combat power. However, the intense pain had greatly affected its mobility. Moreover, Wang Dong still had two more Butterfly Gods' Lights that struck its hind legs, which further impacted the Bloodthirsty Demon Bear's speed.

  Feeling the terrifying aura behind him, the Bloodthirsty Magic Bear barely turned its body around and saw the frightening crimson-gold light ball on Wang Dong's chest. It couldn't help but let out a mournful howl. Its front paws lifted up, barely gathering a yellow glow to counter Wang Dong, the yellow glow transformed into a small shield, faintly blocking in front of it.

  "Alright, the assessment is over. Wang Dong, retract your Soul Skill." Du Weilun's voice came from the high platform.

  The soul technique wasn't that easy to retrieve, Wang Dong hurriedly raised his hands and the crimson-gold light sphere rose into the air. This grand arena was an open-air one. The golden light sphere shot up to a hundred meters high, and within it, layers of golden light shadows resembling crescent moons burst out in all directions, like petals unfolding, eventually dispersing into tiny stars that vanished into thin air. Finally, at a height of a hundred meters, it exploded, instantly casting a golden glow over the sky above the grand arena, a magnificent sight to behold.

  Two judges also took action at the same time, subdued the bloodthirsty magic bear, and ended this promotion assessment.

  Without waiting for the judges' comments, all the contestants could see that Wang Dong would pass the assessment with high scores.

  After releasing the third soul technique, Wang Dong's body swayed slightly, and his face also looked a bit pale. If it weren't for Dai Huabin's bet, he wouldn't have needed to use the third soul technique to pass the assessment, but now he was going all out in pursuit of high scores.

  His third soul skill was called Butterfly God Slash. That's right, although it looked like just a light ball, in fact, it contained 108 rays of light slash. Once it hit the opponent, the 108 rays of light slash inside would burst out and crazily cut the opponent.

  The Butterfly God's Light is an area attack, and although its power is also very strong, it lacks burst force. But the Butterfly God Slash is different. It sacrifices the locking ability of long-range skills and attack distance. However, it boosts its attacking power to the extreme. The Butterfly God's Light skill cannot lock onto opponents, and once the attack distance exceeds five meters, the Light Slasher will dissipate until it disappears completely. This is also why there was such a strange scene earlier.

  Wang Dong chose this skill as his third soul technique for a major reason, which was because of Huo Yuhao's Spiritual Detection Sharing. Only with the help of Spiritual Detection Sharing could the power of this skill be fully unleashed.

  Du Weilun and Yan Shaozhe deliberated for a few sentences before making an appraisal decision.

  Du Weilun said in a low voice, "Wang Dong, facing the highest level thousand-year soul beast assessment, the basic score is one hundred. Judging by the attack power of his final soul technique, there is a 70% chance that the Bloodthirsty Magic Bear will be killed directly and all basic points can be obtained. The performance in the battle is perfect, and the combat skill score can get a full score of fifty."

  In the assessment of upgrading, different soul beasts have different basic scores. The lowest level of hundred-year-old soul beast has a basic score of only ten points, and it can only pass the assessment by showing good fighting skills and defeating a hundred-year-old soul beast. Wang Dong's chosen thousand-year-old soul beast has a basic score of over one hundred points. Adding the fifty points for combat skills, the full score is over one hundred and fifty points. However, the second-grade upgrade assessment only requires thirty points to pass. That means, even if he couldn't defeat the Bloodthirsty Magic Bear, his score would still easily exceed thirty points.

  When he heard that he got a full score, Wang Dong couldn't help but be overjoyed. He didn't need Yu Hao to make a move, and he could win by himself. Since he had already scored a full score, what else could Dai Huabin use to compete?

  But before he could get excited, he was struck by Du Weilun's next words.

  However, the Bloodthirsty Demon Bear itself is an earth-type demon beast, and its defense is also among the top in the thousand-year-old demon beasts. It still has a 30% chance of withstanding your final blow. And after launching this attack, your soul power will be exhausted and you won't be able to resist it anymore. In this case, you may be injured or even killed by its dying counterattack. As a Soul Master, such a rash decision is not wise. After discussing with Dean Yan, we decided to deduct 50 points from you. Therefore, your final score for the promotion assessment is 100 points. You have passed the promotion assessment.

  "What?! Wang Dong's eyes widened in shock: "This is too much! I defeated the Millennium Soul Beast, didn't I?!"

  Yan Shao Zhe finally spoke up, his gentle voice saying: "As an excellent Soul Master, the first thing to consider is how to keep yourself safe in battle. Only then can you think about defeating your opponent. How many years have you been cultivating from a young age? If in the end it's just going to be a mutual destruction with a soul beast, what's the point of your cultivation? The reason I deducted 50 points from you is because as a core disciple of the academy, core disciples will receive better treatment, but at the same time they will also face the strictest requirements. Do you understand?"

  Wang Dong was deeply depressed in his heart, but he had no other choice and could only walk out of the venue with a dejected expression.
