The abrupt ending allowed Blazing Academy to directly advance to tomorrow's final competition.
Moreover, with the simultaneous withdrawal of the two academies, the first half of the competition ended prematurely.
As the host, the Spirit Hall was undoubtedly in an awkward situation, especially since the decision was proposed by their own team.
However, compared to the current awkwardness, the Spirit Hall Academy would feel truly ashamed if they failed to advance to the final competition.
Back at their residence, Quan Yi and Huo Wu also breathed a sigh of relief.
Although only a short time had passed, the psychological pressure they endured was significant.
Especially when Bibi Dong secretly applied her mental power to them, they were genuinely surprised.
Their surprise wasn't because Bibi Dong caused them any harm, but because they were worried that if they didn't react appropriately, some clues might be revealed.
Fortunately, the two understood each other perfectly, able to make the same decision without words.
Targeting Bibi Dong's desire to embarrass them in front of the public and the pressure of defeat, they had to withstand the pressure without causing a commotion.
More importantly, they couldn't let Bibi Dong see their true strength.
In that critical moment, they simultaneously transmitted mental power to each other, creating the illusion of mental fusion to secretly resist Bibi Dong, while also explaining their extraordinary level of mental power.
After calming down a bit, the scene from just now resurfaced in Quan Yi's mind.
Besides the head spirit bone that Quan Yi had his eye on, the other two spirit bones were also not to be underestimated.
"Explosive Incineration Flame Right Arm Bone, Honey, your right arm happens to be missing a spirit bone. This spirit bone should be a suitable choice."
Huo Wu seemed hesitant about Quan Yi's suggestion.
Quan Yi saw through Huo Wu's thoughts at a glance and asked, "Are you considering Wushuang?"
Huo Wu nodded and said, "The explosive attribute of the flame is dispensable for me, but it matches my brother's spirit perfectly. Perhaps he needs this spirit bone more than I do."
Quan Yi sighed softly, admiring Huo Wu's attitude of valuing family more than spirit bones.
But he still advised, "What you said is indeed correct, Brother Wushuang may be a better match for this spirit bone.
However, rationally speaking, it is you who can elevate the value of this spirit bone to a higher level, not Brother Wushuang."
Quan Yi's meaning was clear: Huo Wu could raise the age of the spirit bone to the demigod level.
However, Huo Wushuang could not.
Even if Quan Yi unlocked the restrictions for him, the enhancement of the spirit bone required massive energy support.
Huo Wu could jump into the Yang Spring with her super recovery ability to improve the quality of the spirit bone, but Huo Wushuang didn't have such conditions.
Moreover, it was not certain whether Huo Wushuang would really choose to unlock the restrictions of the spirit bone.
Because unlocking the restrictions and achieving complete fusion also meant that this spirit bone could not be removed and would dissipate with the death of the host.
This might not be a problem for Quan Yi and Huo Wu, who pursued immortality, but for others, letting the spirit bone lose its inheritability would not necessarily be the choice.
Just like Quan Yi's grandparents.
On the way here, Quan Yi had asked for their opinions, but Quan Yi was resolutely rejected at that time.
After thinking about it, they believed that this method was wasting precious spirit bones.
In Quan Yi's heart, family members were obviously more important than these spirit bones.
But their will to refuse was equally firm, which made Quan Yi unable to force them.
Huo Wu was sitting next to him at the time, and she understood what Quan Yi meant, so she nodded and said, "I understand."
She was giving way to the spirit bone because of the suitability of the attribute, but after Quan Yi explained it this way, she understood that she was more suitable for this spirit bone.
Since that was the case, she didn't intend to continue being polite.
"Brother, I'm sorry!"
Huo Wu muttered in her heart, and quickly dissipated the hesitation in her heart.
Seeing Huo Wu's speed of change was so fast, Quan Yi also lamented for Huo Wushuang.
The scorching sun shone at noon, and the fresh air in the morning became scorching hot.
The Spirit Hall Academy team and the Blazing Wind Academy stood facing each other on the square from the morning.
The Blazing Fire Academy team where Quan Yi was located stood on the side of the square, quietly paying attention to both sides.
Since there was no rest area set up on the square, and there were not even chairs, they could only stand and watch if they wanted to watch the battle.
In front of the Papal Hall, the Pope, the Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and three Titled Douluo were sitting upright.
Under their gaze, the red-clothed archbishop, as the referee, announced the start of the competition.
At the moment when the competition started, blue wind broke out in the center of the square, sweeping the entire audience.
A blue flash rushed out from the front of the Blazing Wind team and flew straight towards the Spirit Hall Academy.
As a Soul Emperor, Feng Xiaotian burst out with all his strength from the beginning.
In order to block Hu Liena's charm methods, he directly launched the fourth soul skill Tornado Wind Blade, covering his whole body with a reduced miniature tornado.
The whistling of the strong wind and the blue wind screen isolated hearing and vision.
Of course, doing so would lose the perception and judgment of the enemy.
But Feng Xiaotian was extremely confident in his speed. He had already calculated the distance between the two sides and the time for Hu Liena and Xie Yue's spirit fusion.
As long as he reached the calculated position, he would immediately burst out the tornado surrounding his body.
As a large-scale group attack skill, even if there were slight errors, it could be completely covered.
Faced with Feng Xiaotian's surprise attack and the swift speed he showed, the Spirit Hall Academy did not show a panicked expression.
On the contrary, Hu Liena and Xie Yue seemed to not have reacted, and carried out the spirit fusion step by step.
Xie Yue, holding the Moon Blade, and Hu Liena, with fox tails, collided together, turning into a ball of red light.
However, according to the usual fusion speed, Feng Xiaotian's attack would arrive one step before the red light was completely integrated.
At that time, the raging wind blades would not only interrupt the fusion of the two, but also possibly disperse the Spirit Hall Academy in one fell swoop.
Faced with the full blow of the Soul Emperor, it was extremely difficult for this group of only Soul Kings and Soul Ancestors to cope.
But at this critical moment, the auxiliary soul master at the very end shot out two golden lights from his brilliant golden scepter, which quickly merged into the red light ball.
In an instant, the red light spread from the middle, instantly covering most of the field inside the light curtain.
The two figures in the initial light ball had quietly merged into one figure.
