Devouring the Stars: Soul Master

Chapter 82 Under the Spotlight, Atkin is Instantly Killed

Challenge Jia Yi! Remove him from his position as Fourth Speaker!

Throughout the entire conference hall, all the powerful members of parliament turned their gazes toward Atkin, who had stood up.

At this moment, Atkin's face was ashen, and his eyes were filled with savagery.

This is the last-ditch counterattack by the HR alliance, which has been driven to the brink.

Originally, according to their plan, whether the challenge succeeded or failed, it wouldn't have a significant impact on them.

But now, it has become a do-or-die battle.

Moreover, only Atkinson can take on this challenge!

Although the strongest member of the HR Alliance, East, has been demoted to the fifth speaker, he is still the speaker. If he challenges Jia Yi, it would be considered a victory. At most, Jia Yi would only be demoted from the fourth speaker to the fifth speaker.

He still retains the authority of the Speaker and will conduct a trial on the 76 captured war gods.

"Challenge Speaker Jia Yi? Does anyone, even a Tom, Dick, or Harry, have the right to challenge the Speaker?"

Qin Ming, who had remained silent until now, spoke up sarcastically.

“A member of parliament is qualified to challenge the speaker. Moreover, Atkin is a former fifth speaker, not someone a newly elected member like you can compare to.”

Yan Hai, whose face was equally gloomy, glanced at Qin Ming and said coldly.

"Ha, what if Atkin fails? He has nothing to lose."

Or, if you fail the Atkinson challenge, then you try to challenge him again?

Or perhaps your HR Alliance Speaker, Isadora, will take on the challenge?

Wouldn't Speaker Jia Yi have to accept all of this?

Qin Ming chuckled and mocked casually.

"What, Speaker Jia Yi, are you afraid to accept the challenge? Are you putting forward a newly elected member as a shield?"

Atkin said coldly.

“Speaker Jia Yi is very busy. If anyone can challenge him so easily, wouldn’t that be too childish? If you want to challenge Speaker Jia Yi, you can do so by defeating me first.”

Qin Ming remained calm and composed. With those 76 War Gods in his grasp, the Chinese side held absolute initiative.

They had no choice but to accept it.

Sure enough, Atkinson laughed in anger.

Does a mere newly elected councilor think he can defeat him just because he's a psychic?

That's right, Earth's number one psychic, East, is a second-tier planetary-level psychic, and with his 14 times psychic power amplitude, he can defeat a third-tier planetary-level martial artist.

Qin Ming, who had just advanced to the first level of the planetary realm, thought he could contend with me after defeating a second-level planetary king-level monster.

"Speaker Jia Yi, do you also think so?"

Easter finally spoke.

"If Atkin can defeat Qin Ming, then I will naturally oblige."

Jia Yi spoke up, and the deposit was made immediately.

"Alright! I'll deal with you first, then I'll challenge Jia Yi. It'll be a good warm-up."

Having received a definite answer, Atkin sneered at Qin Ming, completely disregarding him.

The same applies to everyone else.

Even a first-tier planetary-level mentalist cannot defeat a third-tier planetary-level being; this is almost a consensus on Earth.

Perhaps Jia Yi wasn't confident and wanted Qin Ming to test Atkin's abilities first?
This is the opinion of the vast majority of people.

"Since it's a challenge, then you're on your own. If I accidentally kill Atkin, it shouldn't matter, right?"

Qin Ming said lightly.

"Kill me? Ridiculous! A battle between martial artists is a fight to the death. If you have the ability, of course you can!"

Atkins scoffed.

Because of the Black God Set, apart from Hong and Thor, who can kill other councilors, the struggles between other councilors can at most result in a winner and loser, and each councilor has some advantage.

There is only one way to kill a powerful being wearing the Black God Set!
That is to kill it alive with sheer force!

The Black God Set can reduce power by 90%, with the remaining 10% still evenly distributed throughout the body.

"Alright! Since it's a life-or-death struggle, then there's no problem."

A smile crept across Qin Ming's lips; he'd finally fallen for the trap.

Then, Qin Ming looked at Hong and Lei Shen, who had been sitting in the first seat without saying a word.

Since we've decided to follow Jia Yi's method and the rules, we must make the most of those rules.

"First Speaker, Second Speaker, I ask you to be my witnesses. My challenge to Representative Atkin is a life-or-death battle. No one may interfere until the outcome is decided."

Qin Ming smiled.

"it is good!"

Hong gave Qin Ming a deep look and said decisively.

He could sense that this was Qin Ming's purpose.

But he was also very curious about how Qin Ming was able to defeat, and even kill, Atkin.
Even he would need to use the power of his domain to do that.

"No problem! A battle between martial artists should be a fight to the death."

Thor agreed.

Having achieved his goal, Qin Ming fell silent.

Trial?

Ultimately, it comes down to strength.

When news broke that Atkinson would first defeat the newly elected senator and then challenge the fourth speaker, the entire Ares Palace was abuzz with excitement.

Everyone was talking about it.

Some impatient ones even flew their fighter jets directly towards the East China Sea.

Because this battle took place over the East China Sea!

Battles between members of parliament and the speaker are extremely rare.

Moreover, it is said that even the First Speaker and the Second Speaker will personally go to watch the battle!

...Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Over the East China Sea, one after another 'flying saucer-shaped fighter jet' or 'intelligent fighter jet' flew at high speed from all over the world.

Fighter jets are extremely fast, easily exceeding ten times the speed of sound.

Even if it flies from the other side of the earth, it won't take too long.

Even for ordinary warriors at the God of War level, purchasing an intelligent fighter jet would be difficult, but buying a flying saucer-shaped fighter jet is still possible.

Moreover, most of the War Gods have joined major forces, making it easy for them to mobilize a single fighter jet.

As for the powerful members of parliament, needless to say.

Fighter jets hovered in the sky.

Including a super-large disc-shaped fighter jet of the Chinese military, which was also hovering.

Many powerful members of parliament even flew out of their fighter jets and stood in mid-air.

When a blood-red triangular fighter jet appeared, the hatch opened, and a figure dressed in black appeared.

Everyone's eyes were drawn to it.

Qin Ming, inside the fighter jet, was in the same situation.

Hong, as the absolute number one person on Earth, brings a sense of oppression that far exceeds that of the virtual world.

When Qin Ming looked into his eyes, he felt a chill run down his spine.

It was as if he were the only god in the world.

Even Thor, who was following behind him, couldn't attract anyone else's attention.

There is a natural air of superiority about him.

This is not simply a state of mind, but because Hong has always been the undisputed number one in terms of both strength and status!

He alone is worth a powerful nation, or even more powerful!

Individual power has transcended secular limitations.

Therefore, he was elevated to a god-like status by all countries.

Living environment changes one's temperament and physical condition.

Being in such a detached position for a long time will naturally cultivate this kind of mentality.

"Is this the third level of the mind, the boundless and all-encompassing power of the heart?"

Qin Ming looked at Hong and thought to himself.

In terms of mental state, he is not as good as Hong now.

However, the continuous transformation of his mindset and the tempering of wielding the Myriad Souls Banner made his mindset equally powerful.

Although it felt cold, that's all.

Invincible?

He really wanted to have a showdown with Hong.

He can take his place!
"Greetings, First Speaker! Second Speaker."

All the fighter jets, as well as the powerful councilors hovering in the sky, bowed in unison.

"Ah."

Hong and Thor both nodded slightly, looking at the Chinese and HR alliance fighters that had already arrived.

The fighter jet's hatch opened, and Qin Ming and Atkin flew out together, hovering in the sky.

However, compared to Atkin's cold and tyrannical gaze.

Qin Ming remained completely calm, as if he were looking at a dead man.

"let's start!"

Seeing that the two were ready, Hong slowly spoke.

"A mere newly elected councilor dares to challenge me? I'll thoroughly humiliate you and show you what the difference in strength really means!"

Atkin's face contorted with rage, and the Black God Suit instantly covered his entire body as he transformed into a streak of light and charged toward Qin Ming.

The battle between martial artists and spiritualists must be fought at close range!

Amidst everyone's puzzled gazes, Qin Ming, riding the Sky Shuttle, also flew towards Atkin.

How fast is a planetary-level speed?

Almost instantly, the two were less than a kilometer apart. Atkin gripped his weapon tightly, keeping a close eye on the short blades surrounding Qin Ming.

But Qin Ming's lips curled into a cold smile.

Ten Thousand Soul Banners!
call!
Under the command of the Azure Dragon of the East Sea, an overwhelming horde of souls surged into Atkin's body and into his sea of ​​consciousness, like a well-trained army of monsters!

A soul-piercing scream!

Tens of thousands of powerful monsters, under the command of the Azure Dragon of the East Sea, erupted all at once.

boom!
Atkin felt an irresistible force surge through his mind like a tsunami, instantly engulfing his soul.

They offered no resistance whatsoever.

Soul shattered!

A phantom soul flew out under the absorption of the Myriad Soul Banner.

In an instant, it was refined.

His body, hurtling towards Qin Ming at several times the speed of sound, continued to fly towards Qin Ming due to the impact of inertia.

It was as if she had offered herself up, only to be grabbed by the neck by Qin Ming.

No breath at all.

There was no fierce fighting.

Everything came to an abrupt end.

Everyone watching from a distance stared blankly at the scene, completely unable to comprehend what had happened.

But as powerful senators at the planetary level, they clearly sensed that Atkin's life magnetic field had vanished!

Even Hong's pupils contracted instantly, revealing his horror.

"what happened?"
