Peerless Douluo: Blood of the Black King Nidhogg!

Chapter 117 Fiery Fist! Ma Rulong's Killing Intent (4K)

"Stop looking, sis. Mo Yuan won't come out until the competition is over."

While continuing to attack the Shrek team, Xiao Hongchen spoke to Meng Hongchen, who was looking around at the steel cube.

He was in a great mood at this moment. Although he did not have a head-on battle with Mo Yuan, as long as he could trap Mo Yuan and win the team battle, it would be a victory for him.

Even if you have to fight one-on-one for the sake of your pride, there will be plenty of opportunities in the individual matches and 2-2-3 matches later on.

However, the very next second after Xiao Hongchen finished speaking, a loud, hair-raising impact suddenly rang in his ears. He looked up in astonishment at the steel cube beside him.

The block, weighing at least ten tons, was vibrating incessantly! The deafening roars were just like those of a level seven soul-guided cannon being fired!
After a brief moment of confusion, Xiao Hongchen immediately realized what was happening! He understood that it wasn't a problem with the soul tool, but rather that Mo Yuan was currently inside smashing the wall!
"How is this possible! Isn't his original eye-shaped martial soul?! How could he possibly possess such terrifying power?!"
Yes! I was right! He must be using some kind of soul tool to move the cube! That's it, that must be it!

Xiao Hongchen still refused to believe that his guess about Mo Yuan was wrong. He firmly believed that Mo Yuan's physical strength was definitely not strong! At the very least, it couldn't be stronger than his own, the owner of the Three-Legged Golden Toad Martial Soul!
The increasingly rapid vibrations still made Xiao Hongchen feel uneasy. After thinking for a while, he decided to move away from the steel block with his sister Meng Hongchen.

But just as he took a step, a small crack suddenly appeared on the surface of the steel block next to him!

Upon realizing this, Xiao Hongchen's right eyelid twitched violently, and he leaped backward, but it was too late! A strong arm emerged from the gap.

Then it struck him squarely in the chest!

"Holy crap! Is this even human?!"

Hearing the mournful cry from the level seven triggered invincibility shield on his chest, Xiao Hongchen couldn't help but curse as he was sent flying backward.

He was truly dumbfounded. If he could explain it before by saying that Mo Yuan was using a soul tool, then the fist that shattered the level seven trigger-type invincible shield in an instant was like a resounding slap in the face.

This made him realize completely that Mo Yuan's physical strength was not as weak and feeble as he had imagined! Rather, it was unimaginably powerful!
Xiao Hongchen wasn't the only one stunned. When that fist emerged from the steel cube and shattered the level-seven triggered invincible shield with undiminished momentum, Xingluo Square, which housed over 150,000 spectators, fell into a brief silence.

There are quite a few people who share the same thoughts as Xiao Hongchen. After all, in theory, the owners of the fragile martial souls such as the eyes and brain are usually physically weak and mainly focused on mental attributes.

Even if there were exceptions, they would at most be similar to ordinary soul masters; there has never been a case like Mo Yuan.

Judging from his physical strength, if it weren't for the fact that Mo Yuan possessed the Eye Martial Soul and the strength of a Soul King, everyone would probably assume that his Martial Soul was a top-tier Beast Martial Soul, and that his cultivation level was at least at the peak of the Soul Emperor realm.

The Shrek Academy members laughed gleefully, but they were also somewhat surprised. They knew that Mo Yuan's physical body was extremely terrifying, but they never expected that he could shatter a level seven invincible shield with a single punch.

If that punch had landed squarely on me, wouldn't I have been covered in bruises?

Xu Jiujiu, who had been watching the battle from the high platform, was stunned. She finally understood the difference between ordinary geniuses and the chosen ones. A deep sense of loss swept over her, as well as over all the self-proclaimed genius soul masters present.

As Xiao Hongchen was still being sent flying backward, the steel cube was completely shattered, leaving a hole as tall as a person.

Then, Mo Yuan, shirtless, slowly walked out, his robust body, like an ancient Greek sculpture, fully exposed to the air, his dazzling golden eyes radiating an imposing aura.

"It hurts quite a bit."

Mo Yuan clenched his right hand, and cracks appeared in the dragon bone inside. After all, that iron block was equivalent to an ordinary level eight soul guide shield, and even if he used the dragon bone, it was not something his current physique could quickly shatter.

Fortunately, it was a sealed space, so Mo Yuan was separated from tens of thousands of people by a wall. He then experienced a blood surge three times, which greatly increased his strength. He was able to break the seal in a short time by using the Word of Immortality.

The shirt was torn to shreds at that moment by the dragon bone that pierced the skin.

With his current physical condition, it's no exaggeration to say that even if Genjiro came, he would be beaten into a pulp.

When Mo Yuan was completely unsealed and entered the arena, what followed was not cheers or amazement, but screams of surprise and excitement.

Upon seeing Mo Yuan's near-perfect physique, numerous female fans in the audience blushed, their faces flushed with excitement and shyness. From some of the more secluded corners, even barely audible moans could be heard...

If these fans are like this, then Meng Hongchen, who is a hardcore fangirl and looks-obsessed person, is even more so. From the moment Mo Yuan walked out of the steel cube until now, her gaze has been glued to Mo Yuan, without wavering in the slightest.

"Damn it! What are you all standing there for?! Hurry up and help Xiao! I'll take over here!" After a brief moment of surprise, Ma Rulong immediately shouted to his three teammates who were still standing there in a daze.

He then braced himself against Ma Xiaotao's terrifying offensive, and once again distracted himself by setting up several soul-guided cannons to fire at Xu Sanshi, Bei Bei, and Jiang Nannan, who were taking the opportunity to attack from this side, attempting to hold back the six Shrek students by himself.

"Quickly raise your protective shields! Unleash your full firepower to suppress Mo Yuan, don't let him get close!"

After landing smoothly, Xiao Hongchen calmly analyzed the situation in his mind and made the best choice in the shortest amount of time.

The more critical the moment, the calmer Xiao Hongchen became, because at this moment he had no other thoughts in his mind but only how to defeat his opponent and win the game.

Furthermore, Xiao Hongchen took out an oval-shaped metal piece with a faint golden light from his soul tool and stuck it to his chest.

The metal sheet was very thin, with regular light blue lines on its surface. Although it did not have any aura of soul power, it gave people an unshakeable feeling.

A level nine triggered soul tool, blessed by the mortal world.

It was created by Jing Hongchen, the dean of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy and the grandfather of the Hongchen siblings. He also infused it with soul power, so that even if Xiao Hongchen's soul power was insufficient, he could still activate it.

However, since it has been used by a different person, the defensive power of the Red Dust Blessing in Xiao Hongchen's hands is definitely not up to the level of a level nine protective shield, but it is still not comparable to the steel cube from before.

Upon hearing Xiao Hongchen's command, the other three teammates immediately turned their cannons around and fired at Mo Yuan, while also setting up protective shields in front of them to prevent being blown up at close range.

Seeing her younger sister Meng Hongchen still standing there in a daze, Xiao Hongchen, who had been calming down, suddenly felt like her brain was about to explode, and hurriedly reminded her loudly.

"Sis! Get out of the way! Use your soul-guided protective shield!"

Only then did Meng Hongchen wake up as if from a dream. Fortunately, she could still distinguish between what was important and what was not. Without saying a word, she activated the level seven soul guide shield on her body and then flew backward.

In this way, the originally chaotic competition venue was immediately divided in two, with Ma Rulong and Mo Yuan each fighting against multiple opponents in the enemy's territory.

In this situation, whichever team, Ma Rulong or Mo Yuan, can gain the upper hand first will win.

Countless orbs of light rushed in from all directions, creating an astonishing sense of oppression that sent chills down one's spine. Mo Yuan clenched his right hand tightly, and as his muscles writhed, the shattered dragon bones inside instantly healed.

He coldly surveyed the prepared Xiao Hongchen and the countless orbs of light raining down upon him from the sky, then vanished instantly with a light step. The next second, Mo Yuan suddenly appeared behind Meng Hongchen, who was retreating rapidly. His fourth spirit ring was activated, unleashing a burst of extreme cold that froze Meng Hongchen and the activated level seven protective shield around her within the ice.

The orbs of light finally crashed into the spot where Mo Yuan had just stood. The earth trembled, and amidst the billowing dust, Mo Yuan vanished from his original spot once more.

Seeing this, Xiao Hongchen felt his scalp tingle. This was not the speed of a human being! And that terrifying power... This was not human at all, but a ferocious beast in human skin!
The other three members of the Sun and Moon Team were even more afraid than Xiao Hongchen. They didn't have the powerful background of the Hongchen siblings, nor did they have an inexhaustible supply of defensive soul tools!

If Mo Yuan were to find an opportunity to strike, they dared not even imagine what would happen to them!
Having lost sight of Mo Yuan, Xiao Hongchen and his group could not find him, so they had to strengthen their defenses while launching a saturation attack into the smoke and dust.

I only hope that this is a way to make Mo Yuan retreat.

To the hundreds of thousands of spectators outside the arena, they were like weak sheep, while Mo Yuan was a fierce tiger hiding in the shadows, ready to devour anyone he could. He alone intimidated half of the Sun Moon team, making them afraid to move.

Amidst the smoke and dust, Mo Yuan used the Kamaitachi and his own senses to dodge the falling artillery fire, while chanting a string of dragon script once more.

"My wrath is the wrath of kings; let it rise from the heights of Babylon and burn like the sun!"

Word of Power: Monarch's Flame! Unleash!

The scorching flames exploded in Mo Yuan's hand, but he suppressed them with his extremely strong control. In the end, the flames that could have destroyed several buildings were condensed into a small fireball in his hand.

A tongue of flame the size of a thumb danced gently in his hand. Although the flame looked no bigger than an ordinary candle flame, it contained a terrifying power beyond human imagination!
Each leap and fall is like the calm before a volcanic eruption, the stillness before a storm...

Holding the small fireball, Mo Yuan turned his head to look at the other three members of the Sun and Moon Team, and then looked at Ma Rulong, who was fighting against the Shrek Six outside the smoke and dust. His eyes were lowered as if he was thinking about something.

When Mo Yuan raised his eyes again, he had already disappeared from his original position and appeared behind the three members of the Sun and Moon Team who were firing into the smoke and dust with tense expressions.

The three seemed to sense something and turned their heads at the same time. They saw that Mo Yuan was standing sideways in a bow stance, holding a fireball in his right hand, ready to throw a punch at them.

The moment they saw the fireball, all three of them felt their hair stand on end and broke out in a cold sweat, because they sensed the aura of death emanating from that seemingly ordinary fireball.

"Get out of the way!"

With a loud shout, the three immediately activated their soul-guided protective shields to save their lives and prepared to scatter and flee without hesitation.

Before the match began, Ma Rulong told the other team members, except for Hongchen and his sister, that if Mo Yuan got close to them during the match, they could turn around and run away without being considered deserting.

But even if they are fast, can they be faster than Mo Yuan?
Just as the soul-guided protective shields on the three of them were halfway raised, Mo Yuan swung his right hand, which was holding the fireball, fiercely forward.

From there, the line of sight led all the way to Ma Rulong high in the sky!

"Sking!!! (Fire Fist)"

With a single punch, the Junyan flame in his hand, compressed countless times, exploded!

The raging flames, carried by the terrifying fist wind, transformed into a giant pillar of fire, several meters in diameter, shooting straight into the sky!

The pillar of fire instantly struck the three people in front of him, as well as Ma Rulong! And with undiminished momentum, it slammed heavily into the protective shield above the arena!

Under such tremendous impact, the protective shield rippled with distinct waves, and even deformed like rubber.

It looked as if the pillar of fire would burst through the protective shield and smash into the audience of hundreds of thousands of people at any moment!

Fortunately, Huang Jinxu, the Heavenly Fiend Douluo who was acting as the referee, stepped in. He first flew into the arena and rescued the three Sun Moon team members who had been severely burned, and then stabilized the shaky protective shield.

The heatwave scorched the earth in the arena, and flames fell from the sky, adding scorch marks to the already broken ground.

Soon, the smoke and dust were swept away by the strong wind, revealing the current state of the competition venue to everyone.

On the Sun and Moon team's side, Ma Rulong was completely encased in charred soul tools, using this method to block Jun Yan's impact.

However, he still inevitably got burned on part of his body. His hair was curled up from the heat, his face was covered in dust, and he looked quite disheveled.

Apart from him, on the Sun and Moon team's side, only Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen, who had just broken free from the ice seal, remained on the entire field.

Shrek Academy wasn't faring much better. Ma Xiaotao's soul power was nearly exhausted, and bloody wounds appeared all over her body. Jiang Nannan and Ling Luochen stood on the field, supporting each other, panting and extremely tired.

The only one who was somewhat better off was Ning Tian, ​​who was responsible for supporting from the rear. As for Xu Sanshi and Bei Bei, their strength was inferior to that of the three members of the Sun and Moon Team.

Therefore, they had no choice but to act together, replacing the Sun and Moon team member who had been substituted in at the beginning, and the three of them fell off the field together.

Ma Rulong slowly stood up, supporting himself with his hands on the ground. His eyes were dark and unfathomable as he stared intently at Mo Yuan, who was walking towards him. Finally, he shook his head and sighed.

The outcome is already decided. With three against six, plus a Mo Yuan at his peak, the Sun Moon team has no reason to struggle in this team battle.

It would be better to take advantage of the fact that the Hongchen siblings are in good condition now and hurry up to prepare for the next individual competition. Otherwise, if they continue to fight, not to mention whether they can win, even if they do win, the cost will be huge.

Ma Rulong exchanged a glance with the Hongchen siblings who had gathered around him. After exchanging a look, he raised his hand and addressed Tian Sha Douluo.

"We throw in the towel."

After saying that, Ma Rulong and the Hongchen siblings left the competition venue and returned to the rest area without waiting for Huang Jinxu to announce the result.

In this team fight, three players who took the direct hit of Mo Yuan's Junyan were severely burned and unable to continue the match. Fortunately, two of the three were reserve team members, so it will not affect the team's subsequent individual matches and 2-2-3 matches.

After Ma Rulong and his two companions returned to the rest area, they immediately gathered all the team members. Once everyone was seated, Captain Ma Rulong looked at the solemn-faced team members and then slowly began to speak.

"As you all have seen, Mo Yuan's physical strength far exceeds his soul power level, comparable to a top-tier beast martial soul emperor. I'm not saying this to explore why he would go against the common sense of his physical eye martial soul."

"After all, I never put too much effort into dealing with the dead..."
