Invincible Soul Emperor

Xue Zhao quickly stood up, her eyes scanning the surroundings once again.

It was then she realized that the barrier of the Beast Fighting Arena hadn’t truly been broken by her; it merely caused an illusion at the moment of her attack, making her mistakenly believe she had successfully escaped.

Xue Wei saw Xue Zhao being rebounded by the barrier and couldn’t help but burst into laughter, his voice full of sarcasm and smugness.

"Hahaha, Xue Zhao, did you think you could escape so easily? It seems you’re just like this! You can’t even break through a barrier, yet dream of escaping from here!"

His laughter echoed inside the Beast Fighting Arena, sounding particularly jarring.

He mocked with a caustic tone: "Your so-called breakthrough appears to be nothing more than a paper tiger, unable to even handle a few Monster Beasts, what a joke!"

However, Xue Zhao wasn’t angered by Xue Wei’s taunts.

The most important thing now was to remain calm and find a way to break free.

She didn’t respond to Xue Wei’s mockery but focused on observing her surroundings.

Attempting to identify the weakness of the barrier.

At that moment, she was very calm, completely ignoring Xue Wei’s verbal attacks.

Xue Zhao quickly recalled the structure and principle of the barrier

Thinking to herself: "This barrier seems not just a simple screen, but contains a complex mechanism of Spiritual Power operations. To find its weakness, one must fundamentally disrupt its Spiritual Power flow."

Xue Wei noticed that his mockery hadn’t achieved the expected result, further angering him.

But he didn’t want to lose composure in front of the crowd, he pressed down his anger and continued to focus on his opponent—the increasingly fierce Fire Lion.

Under the pressure from the Monster Beasts, Xue Zhao quietly adjusted her strategy.

With raw force alone, the barrier couldn’t be broken, a more nimble and precise approach was necessary.

She closed her eyes, gathered the Spiritual Power within her body, concentrated it at her fingertips, and gently touched the barrier, carefully sensing the Energy Fluctuation within.

The Ice Bear, Snow Leopard, and Ice Phoenix continued to approach her, their pressure growing stronger, but Xue Zhao remained composed, as if nothing around her could shake her.

Her forehead sweated with tiny beads, but her fingers remained as steady as a rock, persistently tapping on the barrier, seeking that slight flaw.

Spectators saw this and began to discuss.

"Xue Zhao unexpectedly disregards Xue Wei’s ridicule, she truly holds her ground!"

"Her strength and intelligence are extraordinary, maybe she really finds a way to escape!"

"Those are three powerful Monster Beasts, can she withstand them?"

Xiao Xiao clenched her fists nervously, eyes full of worry and anticipation.

Ye Qingchen softly comforted her: "Don’t worry, Xue Zhao will definitely find a way."

While saying this, Ye Qingchen’s eyes didn’t look towards Xue Zhao but were fixed on Xue Wei.

At that moment, Xue Zhao’s eyes suddenly opened, a glimmer of light flashing within them.

She had already sensed a trace of anomaly within the barrier, a faint spot in the flow of Spiritual Power.

She quickly moved to avoid the Ice Bear’s attack, hands swiftly forming hand seals, Spiritual Power flowing within her hands, converging into a sharp beam of light.

"It’s right here!"

Xue Zhao murmured, then suddenly struck, precisely directing the beam of light at the weak point in the barrier.

The barrier instantly surged with waves, light flickering as the barrier’s Energy flow showed obvious turbulence.

Xue Wei saw this, his face changed drastically, his mind secretly exclaimed: "She actually found the weakness of the barrier so quickly!"

On the stage, the Elders saw Xue Zhao quickly finding the weakness of the barrier, and smiles of admiration appeared on their faces.

Exchanging low words with each other.

"Xue Zhao indeed deserves to be the genius of the Xue Family, such intelligence and strength are truly rare!" An Elder nodded, praising.

"Yes, not only can she quickly find the barrier’s weakness, but she also maintains calm under the pressure of three strong Monster Beasts, truly remarkable!" Another Elder echoed.

"This girl Xue Zhao is becoming more outstanding, her performance in this competition is stunning." Another Elder said, his eyes full of appreciation.

"Looks like the future of the Xue Family will be brighter with her around."

The Elders, voice after voice, all gave Xue Zhao high praise.

However, the Family Head’s gaze remained fixed on Xue Wei in the Beast Fighting Arena, his expression murky.

The Family Head’s brows furrowed, his face expressionless.

But his hands clenched into fists, knuckles turning white, evidently filled with displeasure towards Xue Wei.

Xue Wei was besieged by the three Monster Beasts, each of his attacks appearing somewhat strained.

The Family Head saw this, and the fire of anger within him grew stronger.

He knew Xue Wei’s abilities, but his current performance was intolerable.

"Xue Wei, what on earth are you doing?"

The Family Head angrily roared in his mind, his expression growing sterner.

His disappointment in Xue Wei was unmistakable, brow furrowed, eyes glinting with a sharp light.

The Family Head’s gaze was like a blade, as if wanting to pierce through Xue Wei’s heart.

If he also lost this round, then Xue Wei would truly be distant from that position!

All the expectation he had for Xue Wei would have been in vain!

The Family Head’s silent scrutiny drew other Elders’ attention to Xue Wei’s performance, and their voices of praise gradually faded, turning their gaze towards Xue Wei in the Beast Fighting Arena, showing some worry and confusion on their faces.

"What’s wrong with Xue Wei? Why has he suddenly become so feeble?" An Elder quietly asked.

"Looking at him, he seems somewhat flustered, could he be affected by something?" Another Elder frowned and said.

"The Family Head looks very displeased, if Xue Wei isn’t careful this time, it could be over for him." An Elder speculated quietly.

The Family Head’s expression grew increasingly ugly, extremely dissatisfied with Xue Wei’s performance, but he could only watch coldly now, waiting for Xue Wei to struggle on his own.

Xue Wei in the Beast Fighting Arena also felt the Family Head’s gaze, his eyes involuntarily glanced slightly.

This old fellow surely gets anxious!

Just letting Xue Zhao lead a little bit.

Is it necessary to stare at him like he wants to eat someone?

However, since Xue Zhao found the flaw so quickly, he didn’t need to continue acting.

Thinking of this, a hint of sinister light flashed in Xue Wei’s eyes.

He quickly took out a black jade talisman from his sleeve, the talisman engraved with eerie runes, exuding a chilling aura.

With peripheral vision, Xue Wei carefully scanned around, confirming no one noticed his small movements, then took a deep breath, tightly gripping the jade talisman.

"Xue Zhao, today you can’t win!" Xue Wei said to himself, a smile flashing in his eyes.

He quickly injected his Spiritual Power into the jade talisman, the talisman immediately releasing a dense black mist.

This black mist rapidly spread in the air, stealthily shrouding Xue Wei, as if blending into the surrounding environment.
