"Execution Wolf?" The name was indeed peculiar. Wei Chen thought to himself that his strength seemed to far surpass that of Frenzied Blade. Could he possibly be the Peak Expert from the Surge Realm?
"My skills are lacking; I hope you won't laugh at me, big brother," Wei Chen said with a grin.
Execution Wolf snorted coldly. "Lacking skills? If you're so weak, what are you doing here at Dingsheng Trading Company? You should just leave."
"That's right, Dingsheng Trading Company doesn't need weaklings."
A chilling voice echoed, and soon after, a figure whose age was indiscernible floated into the Martial Arts Hall. The most striking feature was his long red hair that seemed to sway without wind, making him unforgettable.
In fact, these individuals were all quite strange; none of them could be considered normal. Wei Chen quickly memorized them all. In comparison, Zhou Wu seemed like a very ordinary person.
"You'll find out soon enough whether I'm weak or not. There's no need to chatter beforehand."
Wei Chen refused to back down and let out a cold snort.
This sound startled both Zhou Wu and Frenzied Blade. The strength of Execution Wolf and Red Man was undoubtedly formidable; even Frenzied Blade wouldn't dare act recklessly in front of them. Where did Wei Chen get his confidence?
The expressions of Execution Wolf and Red Man changed as a powerful aura erupted from them, seemingly forming two swirling vortices in front of them, filled with ferocity as they charged towards Wei Chen!
Four pairs of murderous eyes fixed intently on Wei Chen!
Frenzied Blade and Zhou Wu stepped forward simultaneously to shield Wei Chen, but in their line of sight appeared a slender figure!
It was none other than Wei Chen himself!
How could Wei Chen allow Frenzied Blade and Zhou Wu to block that overwhelming vortex for him?
As Frenzied Blade and Zhou Wu moved, he arrived last, taking the lead, brandishing a sword in his hand!
It resembled a sword, yet was more akin to a mountain!
Sword Mountain Spirit!
Two swirling masses of momentum surged towards Wei Chen, but the Sword Soul in Wei Chen's hand began to spin rapidly, slicing through the two masses of energy with ease!
"I may not match you in martial combat, but in a Literary Duel, even if you two join forces, you are no match for me!" Wei Chen declared coldly!
Execution Wolf and Red Man were momentarily taken aback, their expressions dark and menacing.
Execution Wolf narrowed his eyes at Red Man and said coldly, "Let me handle the matter of educating this junior, alright?"
Red Man hesitated for a moment before nodding and stepping aside, coldly watching Wei Chen.
Execution Wolf fixed his gaze on Wei Chen, a hint of seriousness crossing his face. "Your Martial Soul is indeed impressive, but don’t think that alone will allow you to show off in front of me! Young man, today I will teach you how to respect your elders!"
With that, Execution Wolf unleashed a surge of Soul Power, and a shadow of a golden giant wolf appeared before him.
As soon as the shadow emerged, Zhou Wu and Frenzied Blade both looked on in shock. Who would have thought that Execution Wolf would summon his strongest Martial Soul right from the start?
"The Golden Wolf King is the Martial Soul of the wolf king I defeated after slaying tens of thousands of giant wolves in the Beast Forest. I want you to understand that your sword is utterly insignificant beneath my Golden Wolf!"
Execution Wolf sneered as his eyes turned golden, his entire being radiating with a golden hue.
Wei Chen coldly said, "You'll find out by trying."
The furious Golden Wolf charged forward, its massive form bearing down on Wei Chen, its two sharp claws aimed directly at his face.
"Slash!"
Wei Chen roared, and the Sword Mountain Spirit in his hand instantly grew several times larger, its weight like a mountain and its sharpness like a sword, piercing straight at the Golden Wolf's lower abdomen!
Everyone seemed to hear a wail; that Golden Wolf was actually slain by Wei Chen with a single strike!
Yet the Sword Mountain did not stop there, thrusting toward the Execution Wolf's face!
The Execution Wolf staggered back, but the sword halted in mid-air, not pursuing further.
In the next moment, the Sword Mountain returned to Wei Chen's hand, transforming into Soul Power and entering his body.
This contest was different from a true summoning of Martial Souls in battle. Both Wei Chen's Sword Mountain and the Execution Wolf's golden giant wolf were merely composed of thin Soul Power. What was being compared was not Soul Power itself, but the momentum of their Martial Souls.
Without a doubt, Wei Chen's Sword Mountain crushed the Execution Wolf's strongest Beast Soul.
Zhou Wu and Frenzied Blade stared at Wei Chen in astonishment; this guy was truly powerful!
Frenzied Blade swallowed nervously, recalling the encounter. "That Sword Soul doesn't seem like a pure sword; it resembles a mountain. No wonder even the Execution Wolf was shattered. How could someone at his Soul Power Realm condense such a formidable Martial Soul? Thankfully, I didn't provoke him; otherwise, I'd be humiliated today."
"If given time, if Wei Young Master’s Soul Power Realm catches up, he will definitely be invincible among Soul Warriors of the same level." Zhou Wu marveled at Wei Chen and recalled how he had slain Wang Lin. "He has already taken down Spirit Wisdom Realm experts; he is not just invincible among his peers. It seems that surpassing levels to kill others will not be difficult for him. This fellow has an unlimited future ahead!"
Execution Wolf remained silent for a while before taking a few steps forward. He clasped his fists toward Wei Chen and said, "I admit defeat. Your Martial Soul is impressive. I look forward to seeing you become a true strong warrior."
"Alright." Wei Chen smiled lightly and returned the gesture. He was the kind of person who reciprocated politeness; since Execution Wolf had acknowledged his defeat with gentlemanly honesty, there was no need for mockery.
The Sword Mountain Spirit was undoubtedly superior in quality to Execution Wolf's abilities. Those who cultivated Beast Souls often found themselves suppressed by Nature or Weapon-type Martial Souls, a fact that could not be changed. While Beast Souls had their own strengths, particularly in ambushes, they held no advantage in fair Literary Duels.
With Execution Wolf having acknowledged his defeat, only Red Man remained.
No one knew Red Man's real name; even Frenzied Blade and Execution Wolf were unaware. They had joined Dingsheng Trading Company early on, and since Red Man never introduced himself, the name stuck over time.
At this moment, Red Man squinted as he assessed Wei Chen, thinking to himself, "That sword's power is indeed remarkable. Even my Ocean Soul might struggle against it. However, if I retreat without a fight now, wouldn't that be laughable?"
Red Man stepped forward and said coldly, "I didn't expect to misjudge you. You certainly have what it takes to survive in Dingsheng Trading Company; you've proven your potential. But my Ocean Soul is not weak either, so be prepared."
Red Man showed a hint of respect toward Wei Chen; strength could earn everything. To gain others' respect, there was no other choice but to rely on power.
Wei Chen nodded as he noticed a deep blue aura forming in Red Man's hands. It resembled a blue water sphere floating between his palms, emanating an immense presence that made Wei Chen's heart race.
"Ocean Soul... capable of Paralyzing effects... it can truly condense the essence of the ocean. My Sword Mountain will find it difficult to cut through this. Fortunately, the area of this sea seems limited; calling it an Ocean Soul might be less accurate than referring to it as a Lake Soul."
Wei Chen's thoughts raced as he furrowed his brow slightly. To prove himself, he could not afford to lose this battle! Thunder Soul, Brahma Flower Soul, Sword Mountain Spirit, Fire Phoenix Soul, Fire Soul—five Martial Souls swirled in his mind. He realized with alarm that even his strongest Fire Phoenix Martial Soul and Fire Soul were completely suppressed by Red Man's Lake Soul. Water extinguished fire; anything fire-related struggled against that Lake Soul. Even fire might not ignite successfully under the pressure of a Great Lake.
"My Spirit Realm Martial Soul must condense into a Water-type Martial Soul; otherwise, encountering suppression would be too detrimental."
"After today, I will head to the Extreme North. The Ice Sea there is what I need. The Soul Stone is sufficient to support my cultivation to the peak of Spirit Realm; condensing my Spiritual Wisdom Realm Martial Soul is imminent."
Zhou Wu, Frenzied Blade, and Execution Wolf watched intently, eager to see what Wei Chen would use to break Red Man's Ocean Soul. Execution Wolf had already lost and naturally hoped to see Wei Chen defeat Red Man; otherwise, the embarrassment would fall solely on him, which would be even more humiliating. If he was going to be embarrassed, he might as well have someone to share the burden.
"Come on, make your move. There's no need to waste time," Red Man urged.
Wei Chen remained unresponsive, deep in thought. "If I can merge Thunder Soul and Sword Mountain Spirit together, I can definitely break his Lake Soul. But I've never attempted Martial Soul fusion before. In the Soul World, there's no known method for merging Martial Souls. Just because no one has succeeded before doesn't mean I can't!"
"This battle can only end in victory; there’s no room for failure. Under this kind of pressure, perhaps it will work! I am the Demon Lotus Successor; I've accomplished many things that others couldn't. This step is nothing!"
"I'll go for it!"
A manic grin spread across Wei Chen's face as Sword Mountain Spirit surged forth, gently hovering above his right palm. Meanwhile, Thunder Soul slowly emerged in his left hand.
The simultaneous appearance of two Martial Souls left Zhou Wu, Frenzied Blade, and Execution Wolf in shock.
"What is happening?"
"This is insane! He can summon two Martial Souls at once?"
"Am I seeing things? Someone tell me this is real! The rules of the Soul World only allow for the summoning of one Martial Soul; it’s absolutely impossible to summon two! I’ve tried before, and there was no possibility at all!"
The three exclaimed in astonishment while Red Man's expression grew serious. He stepped back a few paces as the energy within the water sphere before him intensified. Despite facing this unbelievable situation, he remained calm and prepared himself quietly.
Moments later, the aura of Thunder Soul in Wei Chen's left palm grew even denser.
"Summoning two Martial Souls isn't that difficult; I just need to ensure that the Soul Powers of those two attributes don’t collide violently."
"But now, merging the Sword Mountain Spirit and Thunder Soul is incredibly difficult!"
"Regardless, we must give it a try!"
Wei Chen's gaze was resolute as he looked at the Sword Mountain Spirit and Thunder Soul. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, his hands gradually moved closer until they slowly made contact.
The Sword Soul and Thunder Soul were entirely different types of Martial Souls. As soon as they touched, a violent clash erupted, as if water and fire were incompatible. The overwhelming pressure caused Wei Chen's hands to bounce apart; they simply could not merge.
"Has he failed?"
The same thought echoed in everyone's minds. There was no sense of schadenfreude; instead, it was filled with regret. After all, witnessing such a miracle would be immensely beneficial for their future cultivation. Perhaps Wei Chen's actions could pave a new path for them.
But had he truly failed?
Even the Red Man let out a faint sigh. He had lost the desire to compete with Wei Chen; it was entirely unnecessary. Witnessing a miracle was far more important than winning.
Wei Chen's arms tensed up, veins bulging as he braced against the immense pressure. His left palm and right palm came together once more. The Sword Soul and Thunder Soul refused to yield, launching fierce attacks against each other.
Once again, his hands were flung apart, leaving trails of blood on Wei Chen's arms.
At that moment, the black-robed elder who had made an agreement with Mu Hua entered the scene, sneering, "Foolish child, no one can break the rules of the Soul World!"
