Chapter 149: Chapter 149: Causing an Uproar in the Spirit Hall
"Seven-in-One Fusion Technique?"
Emperor Xue Ye exclaimed in shock, "This tournament has truly opened my eyes. There are people capable of unleashing such formidable power."
As a soul master, everyone present could feel the terrifying energy emanating from the glowing mass in the sky.
"Hahaha."
The captain of Canghui Academy laughed triumphantly, "You should feel honored. You're the first to taste the Seven Asura Illusion and the first to die from it."
As soon as the captain spoke, pink mist enveloped the arena, obscuring the view. Even a Titled Douluo couldn't see through it.
"Should we stop the match?" Liu Erlong asked.
"Erlong, calm down. If that person couldn't handle Mu Chen, these seven won't either. At the very least, Mu Chen can protect himself," Flender said calmly, showing no concern for Mu Chen's safety, but rather a hint of pity.
Flender referred to Shi Nian. If Mu Chen could defeat Shi Nian, he could certainly handle these seven.
"Exactly. If a hunter lacks the strength, the prey will retaliate. Those seven kids are done for daring to provoke Mu Chen," Zhao Wuji agreed.
Zhao Wuji, who had known Mu Chen for some time, understood his nature. Those who dared to provoke Mu Chen never met a good end.
However, Canghui Academy's captain, blinded by his own fusion technique, didn't see the danger before him and continued to taunt, "The master of the Tang Sect? What a joke! Today will be your death day. You'll be the shortest-reigning master in history. In the endless cycle of pain, may you rest, Tang Sect master!"
"You plan to kill me?" Mu Chen asked mockingly.
"Why are you unaffected?" Canghui's captain was stunned.
"Such a minor trick and you think it can affect me? I must tell you, I'm immune to illusions," Mu Chen smirked.
Mu Chen's head spirit bone granted him two skills: the Eye of Slaughter and Dispel Illusion. Dispel Illusion rendered all illusions ineffective against him, as well as charm-type skills.
"Immune to illusions?" Canghui's captain frowned.
"Frankly, compared to Shi Nian's Nightmare, you fall far short," Mu Chen said nonchalantly.
"You... you've met Teacher Shi Nian?" Canghui's captain was surprised.
"What do you think happens when a hunter with insufficient strength hunts a tiger?" Mu Chen asked.
"You... you intend to kill us?" Canghui's captain was alarmed, realizing that if Mu Chen could escape Shi Nian, he could counter their Seven Asura Illusion. Desperate, he threatened, "This is the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament. Aren't you afraid of the consequences if you kill us?"
"I should thank you," Mu Chen said.
"Thank us?" Canghui's captain was puzzled.
"Yes, thanks to your obscuring mist, your deaths will be seen as an accident," Mu Chen said smugly.
"Not good. Quick, everyone, retract the Seven-In-One Fusion Technique," Canghui's captain urgently called out.
But it was too late.
The pink pattern on Mu Chen's forehead glowed briefly.
**Eye of Slaughter**
Before they could react, Canghui Academy's seven members stood in a daze, blood trickling from their orifices.
As the pink mist dispersed, everyone widened their eyes, staring at the stage.
Mu Chen stood there, and so did the seven members of Canghui Academy.
*Thud*
*Thud*
*Thud*
Canghui Academy's seven members fell to the ground, motionless.
"The Canghui Academy students have fallen?"
"What did the Shrek Academy contestant do to defeat the Seven-In-One Fusion Technique?"
"No one knows, but one thing is certain: this last contestant from Shrek Academy is their most mysterious monster."
The audience watched in disbelief at the scene before them.
"Tang Sect!"
"Shrek!"
"Tang Sect!"
"Shrek!"
The audience cheered in unison for Tang Sect and Shrek.
"Well done. Truly deserving of the title of Count bestowed by me!" Emperor Xue Ye beamed with pride.
"What just happened?"
Host Dou Dou, landing beside Canghui Academy's members, checked their breath and exclaimed, "Dead!"
"What?"
The audience fell silent. This was a tournament, not a battlefield. They assumed Canghui Academy's seven members were merely unconscious. No one expected them to be dead.
In other words, Mu Chen of Shrek Academy had killed Canghui Academy's seven members.
"This is trouble!"
Ning Fengzhi, master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, frowned, already thinking of ways to exonerate his potential future son-in-law.
This was the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament, where the focus was on sparring, forbidding fatalities. Mu Chen not only killed but did so sevenfold.
Mu Chen had stirred significant trouble!
"Boss Mu, for safety, maybe you should injure yourself," Tang San suggested as Mu Chen left the stage.
"No need," Mu Chen refused.
In the original storyline, Tang San and the Shrek Six Monsters faced Canghui Academy. Tang San used his Purple Demon Eyes to counterattack Canghui's seven members and later injured his teammates to provide Shrek an exit, avoiding punishment from the tournament committee.
"Boss Mu, wasn't killing all seven a bit much?" Dai Mubai asked.
"Dai Mubai, others can say that, but you don't have the right," Mu Chen glared at him. As the third prince of the Star Luo Empire, Dai Mubai lacked the ruthlessness required in Mu Chen's eyes to achieve great things.
Dai Mubai was startled, feeling as if Mu Chen had seen through him. He realized his identity might have been exposed to Mu Chen.
"Remember, showing mercy to the enemy is cruel to yourself. Anyone of the Tang Sect, once identifying an enemy, must retaliate decisively," Mu Chen instructed firmly.
The Shrek Ten Monsters nodded in acknowledgment, even Flender and the others agreeing.
"Are you prepared for the tournament committee's inquiry?" Flender asked as the dean.
"Uncle Ning is Rongrong's father; he won't trouble me. The only one who might is Salas. If he insists, I wouldn't mind causing an uproar in the Spirit Hall to seek justice for myself," Mu Chen replied.
