The divine legacy is shattered, the soul is on the verge of breaking, angels return to the rebel camp.

On the battlefield, dust filled the air, and the wails of the allied forces intertwined with the sound of retreating footsteps. Su Chen stepped over the shattered rubble, walking step by step toward Xiao Ling, who was slumped on the ground. The black-gold God-Defying Scepter gleamed with a biting cold light, and the God-Defying Power around him pressed down like a physical force, leaving Xiao Ling without even the strength to lift his head.

"Su Chen... I am not reconciled!" Xiao Ling's voice was hoarse and broken, black blood constantly pouring from the corners of his mouth. At the wound on his chest, the God-Defying Power clung like maggots, constantly eroding the embryonic form of his Sea God Inheritance. He could clearly feel that the sacred power from the God Realm was draining away rapidly, and the golden Sea God mark on his forehead was gradually dimming.

"Not reconciled?" Su Chen sneered, raising the God-Defying Scepter as the black-gold light condensed into a slender blade of light. "When you snatched the ancient spirit ring, did you never think this day would come? When you hunted down The women of the squad, did you never think you would be defeated so thoroughly?"

The moment the light blade fell, Xiao Ling exhausted his last bit of spirit power to activate the Sea God Blue Silver Grass. Golden vines wrapped around wildly, attempting a final struggle. But in the face of the God-Defying Power, these vines were like paper, instantly severed. The light blade pierced precisely into the Sea God mark on Xiao Ling's forehead, and a crisp "crack" sound, like shattering glazed tile, echoed across the field.

In the close-up shot, the golden Sea God mark on Xiao Ling's forehead instantly shattered, fragments scattering like stardust. His pupils contracted sharply, his eyes filled with unbelievable pain. The embryonic form of the Sea God Inheritance inside his body was like a detonated bomb; the golden spirit power surged wildly but was firmly suppressed by the God-Defying Power, eventually dissipating bit by bit.

"Ah—!" Xiao Ling let out a heart-wrenching scream, his body convulsing violently. His spirit power receded like a tide. His strength, which had originally reached the Spirit Douluo level, instantly plummeted back to the Soul Emperor realm, and he would never be able to advance further—the Sea God Inheritance had been completely crippled; unless repaired by the supreme divine force of the God Realm, he would remain stagnant for the rest of his life.

In the medium shot, Xiao Ling collapsed on the ground, his eyes hollow as if all hope had been lost. The Sea God mark on his forehead had disappeared, replaced by a faint black nishen markings, like a mark of shame that could never be erased. Su Chen looked down at him, his black-gold eyes devoid of any pity: "This is the price for betraying bonds and clinging to divine authority."

Meanwhile, The women of the squad had already completely dismantled the remaining resistance of the allied forces. Qing Lin's Ancient Snake King tightly bound the Purple Robe Elder of the Spirit Hall; the venom spat out by hundreds of the dark snake swarm had already made the Elder's body stiff, his face purple, and the black scepter in his hand dropped to the ground, unable to mobilize any more spirit power. "Let me go! I am an Elder of the Spirit Hall. If you dare to touch me, the Spirit Hall will never let you off!" The Elder roared with feigned strength, but he did not even have the energy to struggle.

"Spirit Hall? It has long since become history." Xiao Yi Xian walked slowly to him, light green Poison Mist condensing into poison needles at her fingertips. "You coveted the power of The women of the squad and colluded with Xiao Ling to commit evil. Today, let you taste the flavor of the God-Defying Power's poison." The poison needle lightly pierced the Elder's forehead, and the Elder's roar stopped abruptly. His body went limp and fell, falling into a deep coma, his spirit power completely sealed by the poison.

On the other side, the Third Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire tried to escape during the chaos, but his path was blocked by Yun Yun's Wind Wings. Blue-gold Wind Blade circled around him, forming a solid wall of wind, preventing him from moving forward. "Third Prince, you coveted what belongs to others and aided the evildoer; how could we let you escape easily?" Yun Yun's voice was cold, and the Wind Blade lightly brushed past his brocade robe, leaving behind tears.

Medusa flicked her snake tail, instantly wrapping around the Third Prince's ankle and dragging him back. "Want to run?" Her red snake eyes were filled with disdain, and black-and-white petrification rays condensed at her fingertips. "Didn't you want to obtain me before? Today, I will turn you into a statue and let you remain in this Shrek Academy forever, witnessing how your so-called royal authority is utterly vulnerable in the face of the God-Defying Power."

"No! I am a prince! You cannot treat me like this!" The Third Prince was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he begged for mercy repeatedly, his previous arrogance long gone.

"What if you are a prince?" Ning Rongrong's Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda flashed with light, and a golden blade of light pressed against the Third Prince's throat. "In the face of absolute power, so-called status and position are nothing but a joke."

Ah Yin's Blue Silver Grass gently wrapped around the Third Prince's body, Binding him firmly: "We will not kill you; we will only let you watch with your own eyes how Xiao Ling pays the price for his actions, and watch how the ambitions of the Heaven Dou Empire are shattered."

Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and the others had long since lost their combat ability and collapsed on the ground, watching as the core of the allied forces was subdued one by one, their eyes filled with despair. Flender and Zhao Wuji of Shrek Academy stood in the distance, their faces pale, but they did not dare to step forward—they knew that any resistance at this moment was futile, and they could only watch this miserable defeat.

Just then, a pillar of golden light descended from the sky. Qian Renxue spread her angel wings, like an angel descending to the mortal world, and slowly landed in the center of the battlefield. Her azure blue eyes swept over the battered enemies, finally falling on Su Chen and The women of the squad, her eyes filled with determination and longing.

"Qian Renxue? What do you want to do?" Zhu Zhuqing became alert instantly, and the Shadow Blade condensed at her fingertips—previously, Qian Renxue had always been the executor of the God Trial and stood on the opposite side of the God-Defying Squad.

Qian Renxue ignored her vigilance, walked slowly to Su Chen, gently folded her golden angel wings, knelt on one knee, and crossed her hands over her chest, assuming a gesture of submission: "Su Chen, I abandon the Angel God Trial and the shackles of the God Realm. I am willing to join the God-Defying Squad, fight alongside you, and fight for freedom."

The whole audience was in an uproar!

The women of the squad all showed expressions of surprise, and Xiao Ling looked up in disbelief, his eyes full of confusion and anger—he never expected that Qian Renxue, as the successor of the Angel God, would betray the God Realm and join the God-Defying Squad!

"Are you crazy?!" Xiao Ling roared, "You are the successor of the Angel God, the orthodoxy of the God Realm. Why join these Nishen deviants?"

Qian Renxue turned to look at him, her eyes filled with disdain: "Orthodoxy? The so-called orthodoxy of the God Realm is nothing but an excuse to bind freedom with shackles and oppress all living beings with authority. What I see in the God-Defying Squad is fighting to protect each other and fighting to break injustice. Such 'deviants' are far nobler than the hypocrites of the God Realm."

She looked back at Su Chen, her azure blue eyes filled with sincerity: "I know that I was once your enemy because of the God Trial, and perhaps it is difficult to gain trust. But I am willing to swear by the Angel God's power that from now on, I will only fight for the God-Defying Squad and only fight to protect the partners by my side. If I have a second heart, let my soul fly away and scatter, never to be reincarnated."

Su Chen looked at Qian Renxue, who was kneeling on one knee, and a hint of approval flashed in his black-gold eyes. He could feel that within Qian Renxue's Angel God power, the shackles of the God Realm were gone, replaced by pure free will and a longing for bonds.

"Welcome aboard." Su Chen reached out, and the God-Defying Power gently helped Qian Renxue up. "The God-Defying Squad never refuses those who cherish freedom and bonds."

A hint of joy flashed in Qian Renxue's eyes as she stood up. The golden angel power intertwined with Su Chen's God-Defying Power, forming a faint band of light, like proof of mutual acceptance. "Thank you." She turned to look at The women of the squad, revealing a sincere smile, "From now on, I am a member of the God-Defying Squad, willing to fight alongside all you Sisters, sharing life and death."

The women of the squad looked at each other, put away their vigilance, and revealed accepting smiles. Xiao Wu hopped forward: "Sister Qian Renxue, welcome! From now on, we have another powerful partner!" Ning Rongrong's Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda flashed, and a golden halo enveloped Qian Renxue: "In future battles, I will give you the strongest buffs!"

Ah Yin's Blue Silver Grass gently wrapped around Qian Renxue's wrist, transmitting warm Life Power: "Welcome home."

Qian Renxue felt the acceptance and warmth of The women of the squad, and a sense of belonging she had never felt before surged in her heart. She knew that she had made the most correct choice; this was the place that truly belonged to her.

Just then, a wave of spirit power suddenly came from the direction of Shrek Academy. A group of Shrek students, led by Yu Xiaogang, rushed toward the battlefield. Yu Xiaogang looked at the mess and the slumped Xiao Ling, his expression solemn: "Su Chen, show mercy! Xiao Ling has already been punished. Please let him go, and let Shrek Academy go."

Su Chen hooked his lips into a mocking smile: "Show mercy? When you hunted down The women of the squad, why didn't you think of showing mercy? Today, not only will I make Xiao Ling pay the price, but I will also make Shrek Academy pay the due price for their past arrogance and prejudice!"

He turned to look at Qian Renxue, his black-gold eyes carrying a hint of deep meaning: "Qian Renxue, let your first battle begin with protecting your partners and trampling on the dignity of Shrek."

A hint of fighting spirit flashed in Qian Renxue's eyes. The golden angel power erupted instantly, her angel wings spread again, and her azure blue eyes were filled with determination: "As you command!"
