Soul Communication!
Calming his emotions at once, Shen Pojun was quick to send a reply back. “Headmaster Ge, do you have a plan?!”
“There is but one concern I have—how confident do you feel about fighting one Saint? How long do you expect to take? And will you be capable of fighting afterward?”
Confused, Shen Pojun did his best to answer, “Gu Jimie surely must be newly ascended. I have confidence in my victory, if I can concentrate fully on our battle, I’m quite confident in killing him! It…shouldn’t take longer than a minute to finish him off and continue fighting!”
Shen Pojun had confidence in himself!!
Though a newly-ascended Saint himself, Shen Pojun was at least further in his training than Gu Jimie. His understanding of chaotic energy was far greater than any other Early-stage Soul Saint, and with his upgraded equipment, Shen Pojun was sure no problem would arise if he tried to kill Gu Jimie.
“A minute…” Ge Yiyun echoed, “Very well!! Entrust the other to me, I’ll risk my life so he won’t interfere with your battle!”
“What?!”
Despite his earlier suspicions, Shen Pojun was alarmed that Ge Yiyun would have such a plan. Ge Yiyun was planning to fight with an actual Saint! Surely he had to have some kind of method to boost his own power so he could fight with a Soul Saint despite being a Soul Emperor. But if he had a technique that could boost him that much, the recoil would surely be just as great.
Shen Pojun hadn’t been planning to die here before. He just wanted to bide for time so everyone else could escape. It was a dangerous situation for him, but he was Shen Pojun, he was not a man that’d die easily here.
But if Ge Yiyun did have a way to stall one of the Saints, then that was a different story. It wasn’t as if he was confident in being able to kill two Saints by himself, but that if Gu Jimie died, then Guan Xiongyan would surely decide not to fight him. It’d be a good way to force back the enemies, at the very least.
Ge Yiyun wasn’t who Shen Pojun was most confident in, however. It was Bai Yunfei that he was truly more confident in!
Bai Yunfei had enough power today to qualify as one who could fight with Saints. He and Ge Yiyun had a greater chance to successfully stall Guan Xiongyan if they worked together.
And after Shen Pojun killed Gu Jimie, then Bai Yunfei would still be able to assist him in defeating Guan Xiongyan.
His mind raced countless kilometers per second as he thought furiously about the plan. His eyes shot carefully toward Bai Yunfei.
They were all currently linked to one another thanks to the Charm Bracelet. So while Ge Yiyun was speaking to his soul, Shen Pojun could immediately relay the information through the link so the others could listen in.
Catching Shen Pojun’s glance, Bai Yunfei replied his glance with a bright gleam in his eyes and a fierce nod of his head!
“Very well!! Then let us make battle!!”
Swelling with courage, Shen Pojun gave one last reply to Ge Yiyun before flaring his soulforce brilliantly at once!
“Boom!!”
Half a beat after Shen Pojun roused his soulforce, Ge Yiyun completed a series of complicated hand seals and was engulfed by a bright light. Then, his aura began to spike in intensity!
Together, Shen Pojun and Ge Yiyun than launched each other like shooting stars towards the Saints!
……
“What?!”
Both Gu Jimie and Guan Xiongyan were startled, they didn’t expect their enemies to take the initiative!
“Hmph!! To hell with you then!!”
Shangguan Xiongyan roared with cold fury. He couldn’t show his hesitance here, his side had the advantage. In the end, it’d be he and Gu Jimie that’d emerge as the victors. If they were the ones being attacked, then they might as well respond in kind. Roaring once again, Shangguan Xiongyan charged at Ge Yiyun to kill him.
A Peak Late-stage Soul Emperor was indeed the strongest being underneath a Saint, but what else could he be but an inconvenience to an actual Saint?!
Like Shangguan Xiongyan, Gu Jimie was startled to see the others taking the initiative. He could tell Shen Pojun’s aura was locked onto him, meaning there was no way he’d be able to avoid a battle.

But that didn’t mean Gu Jimie was too cowardly to do so. He had his pride as a Saint, how could he refuse a battle?! Even though he knew his chances of victory were slim, he’d fight!! He still had Shangguan Xiongyan by his side, he just needed to quickly get rid of Ge Yiyun and they’d be able to kill Shen Pojun!
Conflicted as the Saints were, they still had no doubt in their mind that they’d be the penultimate victor. Together, they flew forward to start their battle!
But they didn’t fly toward their respective opponents. Instead, they flew in an upward curve that forced Shen Pojun and Ge Yiyun to follow suit.
They all had the same plan—to fly high enough so that their battle wouldn’t reach any of the Soul Emperors.
“Kill!!!!”
Several of the Soul Emperors from the Fate School leapt into action the moment when Ge Yiyun left. Eyes blazing with fury, they rush toward the Soul Refining School to begin the battle.
At the same time, Chu Yintian and the other crafters flew at the Soul Refining School from the opposite side!
The nine Soul Emperors from the Soul Refining School and Tianhun School looked uneasy at the situation. With both their Saints being busy and them being outnumbered in Soul Emperors, they were concerned about the possible casualties…
In a single moment, the world exploded into a cacophony of elemental energy and explosions.
……
A single person broke out from the ranks of the Soul Emperors from the Crafting School. Shooting higher up into the sky, this person flew with great speed toward where Shangguan Xiongyan was fighting Ge Yiyun.
This person was Bai Yunfei.
He wasn’t required to take part in the battle of Soul Emperors. What he was better suited to do was help Ge Yiyun stall against Shangguan Xiongyan.
Because of the relative distance and time difference, Bai Yunfei was able to reach Ge Yiyun not long after he took flight.
“Boom!!!”
A sea of fire traversed across the skies at once, flooding everything within it with the Law of Fire. The intensity of the flames nearly made Bai Yunfei fly off-course.
He was surprised by the force of the blow. Shangguan Xiongyan’s power was far greater than that of Gu Lianhun! This was the power of a proper Soul Saint, and not one that was made into an avatar.
The other thing that surprised Bai Yunfei was Ge Yiyun’s strength. He could tell that Ge Yiyun was radiating the same amount of power as Shangguan Xiongyan!
In fact…the energy that flickered off Ge Yiyun’s body like flames…his aura wasn’t weaker than Shangguan Xiongyan—it was far stronger! He had the aura of an Early-stage Soul Saint!
Before, Bai Yunfei had always assumed that Ge Yiyun was a Soul King when they first met. But that was just due to his ignorance when he was younger. Only now did Bai Yunfei realize how strong Ge Yiyun truly was…
He didn’t know what method Ge Yiyun used to become stronger, but it was undoubtedly stronger than what Shen Pojun used to fight against Gu Lianhun. Perhaps it was even stronger than Bai Yunfei’s Dual Flame Arte’s Berserk Mode.
But the most peculiar thing was how Ge Yiyun didn’t have any elemental energy. A form of energy far more transparent than usual surrounded his body. Though Bai Yunfei was unsure of what kind of energy it was, he was confident it was far more powerful than the sea of flames that had emerged from Shangguan Xiongyan.
“Hmph!!”
A sneer echoed out from the sea of flames; Shangguan Xiongyan was seemingly getting over his surprise of Ge Yiyun being able to properly fight him. Following his sneer, the flames began to circle together to transform into a solid being of fire. The construct raised its giant right arm and swung it forward in an attempt to strike Ge Yiyun.
In his transparent bubble of energy, Ge Yiyun remained calm. Neither pain nor panic could be seen in his expression as he raised his right hand high. Floating at the palm of his head was a transparent pearl, that once his soulforce made contact with it, transformed into a brilliant beam of light once he slammed his palm into it. Striking the giant arm with record speed, the pearl let out a loud bang as it stopped the arm dead in its tracks as if it hit a wall!
But then that was when the other arm began to swing forward!
Unable to bring back his pearl in time, Ge Yiyun swung his left hand out instead to send a wave of energy out. Flying forward, it managed to catch the second arm and cut it into two!
With both arms destroyed, the giant flaming construct collapsed back into flames and revealed a shocked Shangguan Xiongyan in the middle of it.
Ge Yiyun…was actually able to fight a Soul Saint to a stand still!!
