Chapter 292 The Storm Is Brewing, On the Eve of War
"Xiao's strength is getting stronger and stronger. It seems that he has mastered the soul skills of those soul bones. I thought he would be addicted to the battle armor and unable to extricate himself." Lin Nuo said with a smile as he looked at Meng Hongchen coming down from the arena.
Meng Hongchen smiled and nestled into his arms: "You have no idea how hard Xiao works. In your words—he's incredibly stubborn, yes, he's practically the king of stubbornness!"
"Although he didn't say it, I'm his sister, how could I not know what he's thinking? This guy is incredibly competitive; he knows it's hard to catch up with you, but he still tries his best to keep up."
Lin Nuo believed this. Regardless of whether Lin Nuo was around, Xiao Hongchen was someone who refused to fall behind. In his eyes, he was the most talented one, and only he could do what others could not.
His belief was simply outrageous.
Despite being dealt such a blow by Huo Yuhao in the original story, he still managed to become the first person to break through to the tenth level of Soul Master. In terms of talent, in the era of Douluo Dalu II: The Peerless Tang Sect, he and Long Aotian were far ahead of everyone else.
Now, with Lin Nuo's enhancement and Lin Nuo as his target to chase, given his talent, he might not even need Lin Nuo's help to become a god on his own.
If we kill Tang San and break his control over Douluo Continent, it will be difficult for someone like Xiao Hongchen not to become a god.
"I'll give you a lofty goal, and let you spend your whole life chasing it. Even if you can't achieve it in the end, when you look back, you'll find that you've also reached a height that others can only dream of." Lin Nuo's voice was tinged with a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a feeling of deep emotion or regret).
"You're so vain!" Meng Hongchen rolled her eyes coquettishly.
"However—you're right."
"Come on, the final blow!"
On the now completely shattered arena, Xiao Hongchen and Long Aotian stood on either side of the broken ring, each preparing their strongest attack.
As for the rest of their respective teams, they had already left the arena, just like Meng Hongchen, who was now comfortably watching the show while nestled in Lin Nuo's arms.
With the fight reaching this point, only Meng Hongchen and Qingdi from the remaining twelve members of both teams are qualified to participate. The others are struggling to even withstand the aftershocks of Xiao Hongchen and Long Aotian's battle. If they are accidentally injured, they will likely be torn to pieces.
Vina and the others had no choice but to leave, while Meng Hongchen and the others didn't care about the outcome of this team battle and were confident in Xiao Hongchen's strength, so they simply left the stage with Vina and the others.
On the contrary, it was the audience.
Although we didn't get to see the intense team battle between the two powerful teams, just seeing two such powerful Soul Saints fight to the top made the ticket price worthwhile!
-
Xiao Hongchen and Long Aotian, leaping high into the air, each carrying an unparalleled aura, collided violently in mid-air.
The soul-guided shield protecting the arena had reached its limit at this moment. The outer shell of the soul-guided device turned slightly red, and the extremely high temperature made the air distort.
Seeing this, Lin Nuo stretched out his right hand and pointed in the air, creating a spatial barrier inside the soul guide shield to block the aftershocks of the battle between the two on the stage. Although he was not a referee, he was still considered a host here, so it wouldn't be too much trouble to lend a hand.
Before long, the aftershocks of the battle subsided, and the dust that filled the arena slowly dissipated.
One stop.
Lie down.
The person standing is undoubtedly Xiao Hongchen. Long Aotian is indeed very strong, but this version emphasizes cheating. Compared to Xiao Hongchen, his cheating can only be considered a minor cheat, and a minor cheat is not considered cheating. Rounding down, it is almost the same as not cheating at all.
So how can green players compare to tech players?
He must be the one lying down.
However, Xiao Hongchen's condition wasn't good either. Long Aotian was indeed lying down, but his injuries were also quite severe. The main reason was that he wasn't using his battle armor. If he hadn't wanted to fight this battle as fairly as possible, he wouldn't have ended up in such a sorry state fighting Long Aotian.
Do you understand the allure of numbers?
After this team battle, the original team didn't even bother to continue fighting. After taking Long Aotian away for treatment, they directly announced their defeat.
The strongest member of the main team is Long Aotian. Now that he is missing his backbone, Xiao Hongchen only looks a little disheveled and still has the strength to fight. Another equally powerful member, Qingdi, is eager to try. Meng Hongchen, who has never shown his strength, is shrouded in a thick fog.
By any measure, their team doesn't seem like they can win the match.
Normally, according to the consistent style of their Body Sect, even if they were destined to lose this competition, they would still continue to fight.
However, the situation within the Sun Moon Empire has become somewhat unpredictable recently. As a princess of an empire and the future wife of the Body Sect's leader, Vina is far more informed than the average person. It is clear to everyone that it is not a wise move for important figures from other countries like them to remain in Mingdu.
You can fight anytime, but when it comes to your life, it's better to run away as soon as possible.
While the All-Continent Youth Soul Master Tournament is still ongoing, we should hurry and leave the Sun Moon Empire. In any case, the Body Sect has already made a name for itself in this tournament, and reaching the top four is already a great achievement. Losing to the Sun Moon team is not something to be ashamed of.
If we don't leave now, once the competition ends and the Sun and Moon Empire has time to spare, it won't be a question of whether we can leave at all.
Based on this assessment, on the day the competition ended, Du Busi didn't even have lunch before running away with Long Aotian and the others, carrying buckets.
Xu Tianran didn't bother with the fleeing Body Sect.
In the original story, he might have spared no effort to detain these members of the Douluo Three Kingdoms Academy and sects who came to participate in the competition, but now, there is no need for that.
The original story is that their Sun Moon Empire lacked high-end combat power and even had to collude with the Holy Spirit Cult.
But now?
As far as Xu Tianran knew, the Sun Moon Empire already had three Limit Douluo-level combatants.
Kong Deming!
Ye Yulin!
And there's also the Mirror of the Mortal World!
All three of them had broken through to the Super Douluo realm, and were armed with at least three level-ten soul tools made of spirit-forged alloy, plus level-nine fixed-position soul-guided cannons that resembled self-destructing trucks. Their combat power among the Limit Douluo was among the strongest.
With such a powerful figure as his backing, Xu Tianran didn't even bother to think of any schemes.
It's unnecessary.
And Poison Immortal and Vina's feeling was correct; the Sun Moon Empire was ready to launch a full-scale war.
