After the competition concluded for the day, Wang Li, who revealed his Soul King level but hadn't yet taken action, became the focal point of intense scrutiny from all sides. 

And so, on the third day of the competition— 

The cardinal announced loudly, 

"The next match: Heaven Dou Imperial Battle Team versus Star Luo Imperial Battle Team! Both teams, step forward!" 

As soon as the announcement was made, the crowd erupted into a frenzy. Two of the tournament's seeded teams, the Heaven Dou Imperial Battle Team and the Star Luo Imperial Battle Team, were set to clash on just the third day of the event. This match was bound to be a spectacular showdown. 

Wang Li said indifferently, 

"Looks like I'll need to make a move this time. Their Spirit Fusion Skill will be mine to handle. As for the rest of the Star Luo Imperial Battle Team, I'll leave them to you." 

Yu Tianheng, with a determined expression, nodded. He carried his own pride and refused to become a useless bystander who won through luck alone. He replied in a resolute tone, 

"Don't worry, we'll handle it. No one will interfere in your fight!" 

As both teams stepped onto the stage, the crowd fell silent, their eyes glued to the participants. 

Dei Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun's faces were grim. It was clear that they were being used to test Wang Li, this mysterious Soul King's abilities. 

However, things had already come to this. Complaining was useless. They weren't without a chance of winning; their Spirit Fusion Skill, the Netherworld White Tiger, was a trump card capable of rivaling a Soul King's might. 

The cardinal's voice rang out again, 

"Both teams, bow and summon your spirits!" 

After the formalities were completed, both teams unleashed their spirits. Dei Weisi, with spirit power at level 47, and Zhu Zhuyun, at level 46, combined their strengths. Their white and black spirit energies intertwined, forming a swirling vortex. 

From within the vortex emerged a Netherworld White Tiger, a massive beast spanning seven to eight meters in length. Facing Wang Li, the enigmatic Soul King, they wasted no time unleashing their ultimate move. 

Wang Li stepped forward voluntarily, starting with his first spirit skill. The surrounding Blue Silver Grass surged upward with the wind, spreading in all directions like an unrelenting tide, clawing toward the opposing team. 

Meanwhile, the others each picked their targets, and the 100-meter-wide arena provided ample space for everyone to fight freely. 

"Roar!" 

The Netherworld White Tiger let out a ferocious roar, using its sharp claws and fangs to relentlessly tear apart the incoming Blue Silver vines, which resembled giant serpents. 

But if these vines could be so easily shredded, wouldn't that mean all of Wang Li's efforts over the years had been in vain? 

In the blink of an eye, the Netherworld White Tiger became ensnared within the dense web of vines. Wang Li smirked and activated his fourth spirit skill. 

"Woo!" 

Every vine erupted with an energy-draining ability, causing the Netherworld White Tiger's spirit power to drain rapidly. Dei Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun's expressions shifted dramatically as the White Tiger let out a mournful cry. 

However, the two were seasoned fighters with extensive battle experience. They immediately severed their Spirit Fusion Skill and escaped from the vine's entrapment. 

To outsiders, their decision seemed incomprehensible. Why would such a powerful Netherworld White Tiger suddenly cancel its Spirit Fusion Skill? 

But from the Papal Palace, Bibi Dong discerned the truth and thought to herself, 

"The toughness of those vines, coupled with their ability to drain spirit power, is indeed troublesome. So this is the genius Qian Renxue has her eye on. Very well, let me see what other abilities you possess!" 

This match had been orchestrated under Bibi Dong's orders. Fairness? Justice? Those notions didn't exist here. If anything, the only fairness was that strength alone dictated the outcome within the arena.

*In the Arena!*

Dei Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun managed to escape the reach of the vines, but the Netherworld White Tiger not only failed to contribute, it also left them with half their spirit power drained. Furious and alarmed, the two launched long-range attacks at Wang Li as soon as they landed. 

Dei Weisi's fourth spirit ring lit up: 

"Fourth Spirit Skill: White Tiger Meteor Shower!" 

Zhu Zhuyun's fourth spirit ring also flared: 

"Fourth Spirit Skill: Netherworld Crescent Slash!" 

The Netherworld White Tiger was powerful, but to Wang Li, it was merely a target. 

Without the Netherworld White Tiger, even though Dei Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun were Spirit Elders with top-tier spirits, they were little more than minor obstacles for Wang Li, easily handled with a single skill. 

With a sweep of his hand, Wang Li activated his third spirit skill. The vines were coated in a metallic sheen and moved so swiftly they left afterimages. They shattered the White Tiger Meteor Shower, destroyed the Netherworld Crescent Slash, and surged forward like an unstoppable tide, sealing off every retreat. The vines finally struck Dei Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun directly. 

Thud! Thud! 

The Blue Silver Grass, now enhanced with a 50% boost in all attributes, sent the pair flying with a force that left them coughing up blood as they crashed to the ground, unable to continue the fight. 

The entire arena was stunned. 

Bibi Dong watched in astonishment and thought to herself, 

"In less than a minute, he neutralized the Netherworld White Tiger and then completely overwhelmed Dei Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun with raw power. His strength rivals that of a high-tier Soul King. And his age…" 

She added silently, 

"Poison Douluo, Dugu Bo—he's capable of nurturing such an extraordinary talent? But since Qian Renxue has taken an interest, I'll leave him to her." 

With Dei Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun's defeat, the Star Luo Imperial Battle Team lost all fighting spirit. The rest of their members were swiftly eliminated one by one. 

This match ended with a resounding victory for the Heaven Dou Imperial Battle Team. 

Wang Li's dominance in defeating the Netherworld White Tiger in just one minute—without even needing to use his ten-thousand-year spirit skill—was proof of his terrifying power. The audience erupted into thunderous cheers, celebrating his brilliance. 

With such a formidable Soul King on their side, it became clear to everyone that this year's Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Championship would come down to the Spirit Hall Battle Team and the Heaven Dou Imperial Battle Team.

*Day Four of the Competition*

The Heaven Dou Imperial Battle Team faced their next opponent, the final academy representing the Star Luo Empire. Despite their decent strength, they were effortlessly defeated. 

By this point, the competition had narrowed to the final three teams: the Spirit Hall Battle Team, the Heaven Dou Imperial Battle Team, and the Blazing Academy Battle Team. This was no surprise. 

The Star Luo Imperial Battle Team had already been eliminated by Heaven Dou, while the powerful Godwind Academy Battle Team, led by Feng Xiaotian, had never been able to overcome the sibling duo of Huo Wu and Huo Wushuang from Blazing Academy. 

---

*Day Five of the Competition*

For the final stage, the three remaining teams would engage in a round-robin format. Each team's members would take turns battling, and the team with the last spirit master standing on the arena would advance directly to the finals. The remaining two teams would fight for the final qualifying spot. 

When Huo Wu from Blazing Academy took the stage, she loudly declared, 

"Heaven Dou Imperial Battle Team, remember my name—Huo Wu from Blazing Academy! For this battle, we forfeit." 

She added, 

"We're not doing this to make it easier for you to face the Spirit Hall Battle Team. We're simply waiting for the two of you to wear each other down, so we can reap the benefits." 

Surprisingly, the Spirit Hall Battle Team also announced their forfeiture shortly afterward, possibly under some unknown directive. 

With that, the Heaven Dou Imperial Battle Team advanced directly to the finals. 

Next, the Spirit Hall Battle Team and the Blazing Academy Battle Team would face off for the final slot. 

As both teams took the stage, it became evident that the Spirit Hall Battle Team had made adjustments. Three of their original members had been replaced, and the newcomers exuded an intimidating aura of strength. 

After their Spirit possession, the audience was left in awe: three Soul Kings stood on stage, revealing themselves as the Golden Generation of the Spirit Hall—Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and Yan. 

Hu Liena and Xie Yue activated their Spirit Fusion Skill, *Enchanting Charm*. A blood-red mist engulfed the arena, reducing the Blazing Academy team's sensory perception by 50%, suppressing their spirit power by 50%, and slowing all their movements by 50%. 

Though the Blazing Academy team was strong, they were utterly crushed. Members of the team were thrown out of the blood-red mist, coughing up blood as they were violently expelled. 

As the mist cleared, the outcome was unmistakable.
