Chapter 157 - A Formidable Opponen (2/2)

In reality, Tang Wulin wasn't in a good condition either. He was already running low on soul power after using his Golden Dragon Claw and golden vine.

The Bluesilver Gra.s.s propelled him further away from her. Meanwhile, the golden Bluesilver Gra.s.s vanished as Goldlight returned to him.

He was currently maximizing his time airborne to open up the greatest distance he could between him and the girl.

“Thirty seconds have pa.s.sed. First trial over.”

The long awaited voice appeared once more. He rolled when he landed to mitigate the force, then stood up and looked behind him.

“The second trial begins. Defeat your opponent or survive for another thirty seconds.” Tang Wulin was speechless at the ball-breaking objective the electronic voice announced.

Just before, he had been forced to use two-thirds of his soul power just to survive the short battle against her. Yet now, he had to survive another thirty seconds?

Seemingly unaffected by the electronic voice, the girl charged toward him once more. This time, however, she only wielded the flute.

What do I do?

Run? I'm nowhere near as fast as her. My footwork can't compare with hers. I can't run.

A battle of attrition?

If she really is only a one-ringed Soul Master, then there shouldn't be a big difference between our soul power capacities. She's a bit stronger with her twin souls, but using both their soul skills consumes a lot of soul power too. a.s.suming my guess is true, then I need to engage her as much as possible now. Even if I can't beat her, I should be able to survive another thirty seconds.

Arriving at this conclusion, Tang Wulin turned around and ran. A second less spent in combat meant a second more of survival.

Though he was low on soul power, his physical strength was in no way affected. With every stomp of his feet, he shot forward like a cannonball. With this method, he was oddly quick.

Yet, the girl was still a bit faster than him. Fortunately, it wasn't that easy to catch up to him. With one fleeing and the other pursuing, ten seconds had soon pa.s.sed. Just as the girl was about to catch up to him, Tang Wulin suddenly leaped with all his strength while summoning his two Thousand Refined Heavy Silver Hammers.

“Wu~”

Here it comes again…

Tang Wuling turned sluggish, and a sense of dizziness overcame him, so he hadn't been able to fully turn his body as he wanted to. He had only managed to turn halfway when the girl arrived before him.

This time, she didn't immediately attack him. She instead reached out and grabbed his right shoulder and pulled him toward her while kicking his calves with her right leg.

Tang Wulin was immediately thrown off balance, dropping onto the ground.

He waved his arms in an attempt to fight back, but the girl was jumping about like a fairy, dodging every single one of his attacks. Even while evading his attacks, she had somehow been able to land two more punches into his stomach.

Bind!

“Wu!”

Slowed!

Once again, his Bind soul skill was slowed down. In fact, the slow effect was so great that the girl grabbed a strand of Bluesilver Gra.s.s and threw him up.

All Tang Wulin could do now was go into a fetal position in an attempt to protect his head and vital organs.

Bang bang bang bang bang!

He was like a human punching bag, getting pounded from all directions.

After some time, the electronic voice appeared once more. “Thirty seconds has pa.s.sed. Second trial over.”

Tang Wulin felt as if his whole body had lightened and the aching of his bones had been washed away.
