Chapter 432: A New Way of Fighting Spirits
"What do you mean?!" Wang Dong has never been one to swallow her anger. There are not many people who can make her feel aggrieved, but there are a few dragons.
Hearing her protest, the referee on the field was also stunned for a moment, but he still had to maintain his country's face, so he could only bite the bullet and say: "Are you questioning the fairness of the empire?"
“Yeah? What’s wrong?” Wang Dong continued, “You couldn’t help it the next day? Your eating habits are so ugly!”
"You! If you dare to question the fairness of this competition again, I will disqualify you!" The referee continued to be stubborn. Although he was very scared, he could not disobey the decision made by his superiors.
"Forget it, let the younger generation just fight for the sake of showing off, just like the martial arts performances in the past, one round will decide the winner, and no lives will be lost. Elder Long, what do you think?" Nan Shuishui, the leader of the Dilong Sect, took the initiative to suggest to Long Xiaoyao that instead of wasting each other, it would be better to do a favor to Long Pavilion. But if they just admit defeat, wouldn't their Dilong Sect come here in vain? Is it really a public-funded tour?
"Let's do as Master Nanmen said. After we return to Longcheng, let your daughter go to the pavilion to pick out a spiritual object or soul bone." Long Xiaoyao nodded slightly.
Nan Shuishui's face changed from worry to joy, and she was once again happy with her correct decision. If she could get something more valuable than the championship prize by just fighting a random match, then this trip would not be in vain.
The Sun-Moon Empire only gave soul guides to the top three. Although the champion could get a level nine soul guide, if the Sun-Moon Empire officials played rogue and only gave a level nine soul guide turret without shells, or gave a disposable defensive soul guide, wouldn't that be a big loss for the contestants? As for the rewards for the second and third place, the soul masters from the Dragon City forces simply didn't care. It's easy to know that the soul guides used as prizes have self-destruct devices inside, and the Sun-Moon Empire doesn't provide warranty services. For them, it's better to directly reward soul guides than soul guides, which is more interesting.
"Qiuqiu, you go ahead." Nan Shuishui thought for a moment and sent out a girl who looked about 60% similar to her.
Long Xiaoyao pointed casually and said, "Xiao Huo, you go." Whether it was pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger or pretending to be cool, Huo Yuhao was the best candidate.
Seeing Huo Yuhao walking onto the competition stage, the referee who had just appeared to be timid asked casually, "Why isn't that kid playing?"
"She has a bad temper, and the captain is worried that she will beat you too." Huo Yuhao also made up a lie.
"Then I will directly sentence you to lose." The referee's face darkened. Anyone who can serve as a referee in a competition of this level must have good skills. Naturally, he did not take the young man in front of him seriously.
“That’s why you let me come.” Huo Yuhao smiled calmly.
The referee frowned but said nothing more. At least on the surface, he could not find any fault with Huo Yuhao.
On the other side, Nan Qiuqiu, the young master of Dilongmen, has also appeared.
“Don’t send me down so quickly, my mother is watching me from the audience!” Nan Qiuqiu’s face was solemn. It was no wonder that she was so nervous. Most of the talented young men in Longcheng had been devastated by Huo Yuhao’s mental attacks.
“Then I won’t use my mental power anymore, because one of my souls has undergone some... changes.” Huo Yuhao still had a smile on his face, looking very polite.
"The Fear Dragon or the mutated silkworm?" Nan Qiuqiu looked at Huo Yuhao teasingly. After all, everyone was familiar with each other, and this game was just a formality.
"It's Tianmeng, it's cocooned."
"Huh? Cocoon? Then when it breaks out of the cocoon, will it turn into a beautiful butterfly?" Nan Qiuqiu's eyes were full of stars, fluttering.
“It could also be a fluttering moth…” Huo Yuhao’s expression was hard to describe. To be honest, he was happy to show his soul in front of others, except Tian Meng.
At first, he called Tianmeng the Ice Silkworm "brother". Later, after Fu Rui reminded him, he realized that this thing was deceiving him by pretending to be a female silkworm. Later... Tianmeng never admitted that she was a girl. She even transformed into Huo Yuhao's appearance during the martial arts ceremony held in Dragon City and shouted to everyone that she had a cow's egg...
You have no shame, but I still have some! ! ! From then on, Huo Yuhao never let it out again.
"No passive play, get off if you don't want to play!" The referee saw that the two had been chatting since they came on, which has caused dissatisfaction among the audience. After all, the audience paid to watch the game, not to chat with acquaintances.
"Oh." x2
When Nan Qiuqiu retreated to the edge of the competition stage, Huo Yuhao suddenly moved. Under everyone's gaze, six blood-red halos instantly rose from under his feet, and there were even four faint golden lines flashing on each halo. A terrifying aura that seemed to come from the ancient wilderness suddenly emerged. Everyone saw a layer of light red blood light suddenly spread out from his body, and the cold wind swept up the vortex of soul power. The entire competition stage was instantly covered with frost patterns, and countless ice crystals were suspended in the air against gravity, reflecting thousands of prisms in the agitation of soul power.
As the ice fog rolled, a transparent scorpion-shaped shadow emerged. When the ice fog dissipated, an ice-green emperor scorpion nearly two meters long appeared on the field. Its front four layers of superimposed carapace extended a silver-white mouthpart, its head was inlaid with yellow hexagonal pupils, its front half and six long legs were densely covered with diamond-textured hexagonal protrusions, and its pair of one-meter-long front claws were also covered with such crystal patterns, but the claw tips and mouthparts were mirror-like silver-white. The five emerald green joints of the tail gradually narrowed, and a curved hook covered with crystal grains hung at the end, with a cold tip like a silver mirror.
Ice crystals carrying tiny diamond dust soared into the sky, and the soul barrier emitted a humming sound as it could not bear the heavy load. When the scorpion claws tore through the snowstorm curtain, the referee, who was quickly retreating from the center of the competition venue, froze under his feet, and then turned into an ice sculpture, maintaining a backward posture without moving.
"You are the one who even hit the referee, right?!" Nan Qiuqiu released her martial soul the moment she retreated to the edge of the competition stage. The five optimally matched soul rings also demonstrated her soul king-level cultivation.
A diamond-shaped pink crystal appeared on her forehead along with the release of her martial spirit. Then, her body became more and more slender, and crystal clear pink dragon scales grew along her fingertips. As the scales extended, her entire right hand seemed to have turned into a piece of pink crystal.
A light pink flame lit up and instantly burned the sleeve on her right arm, revealing the entire arm that was completely covered in scales.
At the same time, a dragon-like soul beast with a unique and gorgeous appearance guarded Nan Qiuqiu behind him. Its entire body was covered with bright red scales like rouge, shining like a ruby in the sun.
