Both sides released their Martial Spirit.
"Great Orangutan?"
Looking at the Martial Spirit opposite of him, Su Wen immediately recognized its origin.
Having the Great Orangutan Martial Spirit, then it should be a member of the One Strength Clan. Combined with the opponent's age and Soul Power level, Su Wen had reason to suspect that the other party was the original Tai Long in the work.
"Great Orangutan, a strong attack type Martial Spirit, the most important thing is that the One Strength Clan specializes in pure strength. All Spirit Rings amplify strength, and the Spirit Skills are also strength-based explosive Spirit Skills."
Under the accumulation of so many Spirit Rings, the eruptive power is overwhelming among Spirit Masters of the same level.
The chief of the One Strength Clan, Tai Tan, is just a Spirit Douluo, but in terms of strength, he surpasses many Titled Douluo completely.
Of course, Tai Long now only has three strength-based Spirit Rings so his power wasn't as exagerated.
However, the power gap at the Spirit Elder stage is far less than the difference between Spirit Douluo and Titled Douluo, so Tai Long, strengthened by three Spirit Rings, can even compete in power bursts with some weaker Spirit Ancestors.
"However, being purely strength-based also means a significant gap in agility and defense!"
Su Wen is also clear about the best tactics against Spirit Masters of the One Strength Clan.
However, he doesn't intend to do so.
Since they've encountered each other, he wants to personally experience what kind of power Tai Long possesses.
He can always change tactics after falling into a disadvantageous position.
"So, you're the 'Scholar Warrior'?" Tai Long stared at Su Wen, grinning, "Today, I'll show you what a true battle Spirit Master is!"
Obviously, Su Wen's reputation is not small.
Tai Long heard about him even before he broke through the thirtieth level. At that time, Su Wen had been challenging Spirit Elders across levels, and Tai Long didn't have a chance to fight against Su Wen.
"Begin!!"
At the referee's command, Su Wen burst forward.
Tai Long also stomped fiercely.
The two met in the center of the arena, Su Wen's right fist gathering explosive flames, swinging fiercely.
The first and second Spirit Rings on Tai Long's body shimmered.
Boom!
In a fierce explosion of flames, Su Wen and Tai Long were sent flying in different directions.
Su Wen used Wind control to reduce the impact force he received and landed steadily before moving forward again.
Tai Long looked shocked, and at the same time, the third Spirit Ring shone.
"Third Spirit Skill, Demon Ape Golden Body!"
Pages fluttered above Su Wen's head, then merged into his body.
The first and second Spirit Rings both shimmered.
The two clashed again.
Each collision ignited the blood of the audience watching this match.
This is true hand-to-hand combat.
Su Wen, a Spirit Grand Master, was repeatedly clashing with Tai Long in terms of strength.
The only slight difference is that Tai Long's power comes from the physical burst after being possessed by the Martial Spirit, while Su Wen relies on techniques like Flame Fist to generate explosive damage.
Although it's still a close combat, there are differences after all. The demands on the body's endurance by Flame Fist are still too high. With each collision, Su Wen's bursts gradually could't keep up with Tai Long's. However, he didn't change tactics.
"Face my own Spirit Skill!" Su Wen shamelessly declared. A large amount of wind compressed in his hand, forming a green sphere, with a vast amount of wind crazily rotating inside, undergoing completely irregular movements.
Pure wind compression. However, due to the intense compression, the continuously rotating wind spontaneously revealed edges like Wind Blades.
It's as if each stream of wind is an extremely solid Wind Blade. Bang! Another collision, the green sphere collides with Tai Long's fist.
This time, Tai Long's fist was cut by the wind, leaving numerous wounds.
Tai Long felt the pain on his fist, roaring angrily, golden light spreading all over his body, covering his fists, and punching wildly.
Su Wen continuously condensed and compressed a large amount of wind into a green sphere in his hand. After numerous bursts, Tai Long's two fists had turned red, while Su Wen's hands were also feeling a bit numb.
"You're strong," Tai Long said earnestly. "However, trying to defeat me by surpassing me in explosive power is impossible!"
This is the pride of the One Strength Clan. A pure strength-based family. Tai Long will definitely be severely reprimanded when he returns if he were to actually show inferiority in explosive power against a Spirit Grand Master..
"Hmm? This should be the One Strength Clan's ace in the hole," Su Wen observed Tai Long's changes, sensing the dangerous and fierce momentum, and thought to himself.
Merely adding pure strength-based Spirit Rings couldn't be the true core.
As a member of the One Strength Clan, renowned across the continent, the One Strength Clan also has its own secret techniques in reserve, and it is definitely something that's able to unleash even stronger power than their normal Spirit Skills by either being a combination of multiple Spirit Skills or self-created ones.
Bang!
Another collision, the wind within the green sphere in Su Wen's hand was directly shattered.
Under his control, the wind compressed within the sphere would pour entirely towards the opponent upon collision. However, now Tai Long's strength is too great, causing the sphere to explode directly, and the wind inside bursts toward Su Wen.
Clutching his right hand that was bleeding profusely, Su Wen's gaze towards Tai Long was filled with astonishment.
The increase in power was evident and quite violent.
'Since that's the case, it's time to change tactics.'
In the box, Liu Erlong watched the battle between the two, her brows furrowed.
"So, Su Wen has reached such an advanced stage in harnessing the wind element?"
She has witnessed Xiao Zhan's Fire Demon Style, his self-created Spirit Skills, and knows that Su Wen probably can't fully unleash that power due to physical limitations. However, even so, Su Wen's self-developed wind element Spirit Skill seems to surpass the power of Flame Fist.
"To think he's considering going head-to-head with members of the One Strength Clan. Tsk"
Upon witnessing Su Wen's right hand bleeding profusely, Liu Erlong sneered.
The strength of the One Strength Clan is not to be underestimated. However, Su Wen was not really foolish either. After truly experiencing it once, Su Wen promptly changed tactics, maneuvering agilely against Tai Long and securing victory.
Her gaze flickering, she then turned to Yu Tianheng and said, "Tianheng, tell Su Wen that if he wishes to train with me, he can come to my Blue Tyrant Academy to find me."
With that said, Liu Erlong left the Great Spirit Arena. Coming down from the stage, Su Wen found Ye Lingling and received treatment.
"You actually competed in strength with the members of the One Strength Clan" Qin Ming shook his head. He had also watched the battle and felt that Su Wen had been reckless.
"Qin Ming, I didn't come out empty-handed," Su Wen said.
"Oh?" Qin Ming looked at Su Wen, seeing that he had no intention of elaborating further, so he didn't inquire.
After treating his injuries, Su Wen sat cross-legged on the sofa in the lounge, closing his eyes and contemplating the sensations he had just experienced.
"Tai Long just now must have sublimated all of his Spirit Skills after merging them."
Just like Su Wen's first and Second Spirit Skills, which, when used in conjunction, can record his elemental control abilities and strengthen others.
Tai Long's numerous Spirit Skills serve as a foundation, assisting him in achieving that technique of power burst.
While contemplating, Su Wen's Soul Power was slowly recovering, then...
Bang!
He broke through.
Twenty-fifth level.
