Douluo Continent: Now that everyone's been reborn, who's still going to be a simp?

They walked steadily and powerfully onto the ring, their heavy footsteps seeming to pound the heart of everyone present, demonstrating their strength and might.

Chapter 42 That's Not the Clear Sky Hammer

The two people on the stage looked like they were cut from the same mold, and they appeared to be around thirty years old.

The two brothers stood on the ring, their imposing presence like two mountain peaks, giving people a sense of invincibility.

As they stepped onto the stage, the atmosphere instantly ignited, and the audience erupted in cheers.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Yan and Huo Wu walked side by side, their steps steady as they stepped onto the arena.

When the two of them appeared, the audience erupted in commotion.

"Look, isn't that the little beauty in the ring the other day?"

"Yes, I remember her. She's the Soul Master who controls flames!"

"Didn't she team up with another male Soul Master last time to participate in a Soul Master-level competition? Why did she change teammates this time? Is she planning to challenge a higher level? Tonight is going to be a good show!"

The duo of Huo Wu and Huo Wushuang appeared once on this arena. They participated in a Soul Master level duel and successfully won the match.

But tonight, Huo Wu and Yan will face two even more powerful Battle Soul Masters.

When the Iron Hammer Brothers saw that their opponents were two seemingly inexperienced young Soul Masters, they couldn't help but show a look of contempt.

One of the burly men turned to the host and expressed his doubts:

"These two brats, are their soul power really over level 40? Are you sure you want them to fight us?"

The host answered with a serious expression:

"Don't judge a book by its cover. Despite their young age, they are both exceptionally talented Soul Masters. One has already reached level 36, and the other has reached level 44. According to the rules of our Soul Arena, they are fully qualified to participate in the Soul Master level duel."

Even after hearing the host's explanation, the man still snorted dismissively, glancing at Huo Wu and Yan out of the corner of his eye, and said sarcastically:

"One is level 36, and the other is level 44. Their strength is too weak!"

"That's right! We two are both level 46 Battle Soul Masters, you two are no match for us at all. We don't want to be seen as bullying kids, you two should just admit defeat now."

echoed another.

Yan ignored their mockery, staring at them expressionlessly with disdain in her eyes.

This silent retort only further enraged the Hammer Brothers.

"Hey kid, who are you glaring at?! Just wait till I get my hands on you guys!"

Huo Wu had always been pampered since childhood, and she had never been treated with such contempt before. Her fiery temper was instantly ignited.

"Enough with the nonsense! Just wait until I show you what I'm capable of, and I'll roast you both like pigs!"

Upon hearing this, the two brothers laughed instead.

"Oh? So you're a fire-attribute soul master. Not much skill, but quite the temper. I'll see just how capable you really are, little girl!"

The contest between the two sides has not even officially begun, yet it is already filled with tension.

The host quickly announced:

"This two-on-two match will be between the Blazing Flame Duo and the Hammer Brothers. The Blazing Flame Duo is a brand new duo, and tonight is their first time appearing on stage as a duo, while the Hammer Brothers have already achieved a three-game winning streak."

Who will emerge victorious tonight? Let's wait and see. Both sides, please unleash your Martial Souls and Soul Rings. The match will officially begin in one minute!

As the host finished speaking, the Iron Hammer brothers grinned maliciously, staring intently at Yan and Huowu across from them, their eyes flashing with ferocity.

They couldn't wait to teach those two arrogant young soul masters a lesson.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, they both shouted at the same time, their bodies suddenly trembled, and then two powerful waves of soul power surged out from their bodies.

In an instant, a huge black iron hammer appeared in each of their hands.

The hammerhead gleamed with a calm, cold light, as if it could destroy any obstacle.

Immediately afterwards, spirit rings began to surround them.

The two brothers have identical spirit ring configurations, both having the optimal setup of two yellow and two purple rings.

Four spirit rings slowly rose from their bodies.

The yellow hundred-year soul ring and the purple thousand-year soul ring flashed alternately, dazzling and eye-catching.

The appearance of the martial spirit and spirit rings immediately caused a stir and speculation among the audience.

"Is that black iron hammer the Haotian Hammer?"

"How is that possible! The Clear Sky Hammer is the number one weapon spirit in the world, it shouldn't appear in this kind of situation."

"That's right! To avoid being hunted down by the Spirit Hall, the direct disciples of the Clear Sky Sect have long since disappeared and never show their faces in public. That's just an ordinary iron hammer that looks somewhat like the Clear Sky Hammer."

"Even an ordinary iron hammer has a very powerful aura."

"Yes. They probably don't stand much of a chance against fire-attribute soul masters."

The Iron Hammer brothers' aura reached its peak at this moment. They were like two unshakable mountains, giving people a great sense of oppression.

Yan and Huo Wu also felt this powerful aura, but they did not back down.

Huo Wu's eyes gleamed with unwavering determination, while Yan remained expressionless.

The two of them also unleashed their respective martial souls and soul rings without showing any weakness.

A surge of intense soul power erupted from Huo Wu's body. Behind her, a faint, identical fire shadow gradually materialized, seemingly containing boundless fire power.

Immediately afterwards, three spirit rings appeared around her.

The three spirit rings, two yellow and one purple, rotated slowly, emitting a blazing and bright light.

At the same time, a huge fire-man emerged from behind Yan. The fire-man had six horns, and its form was not as illusory as that of Naruto. It looked more real, and its whole body was wrapped in scorching flames, making it look extremely domineering.

As his martial soul manifested, four soul rings also appeared around Yan's body, two yellow and two purple, flashing with dazzling light and radiating a powerful aura.

The two fire-attribute soul masters on the stage have somewhat similar martial souls, both being humanoid.

The Naruto series "Fire Dance" gives off a mysterious yet fiery feeling, as if it could unleash endless flames at any moment; while the Flame Lord series "Yan" appears extremely domineering, as if it would burn any opponent who dares to challenge its power.

The sneers on the Iron Hammer brothers' faces gradually disappeared as they looked at Fire Dance and Yan opposite them.

At this moment, the entire stadium was filled with a tense and exciting atmosphere.

The audience held their breath, waiting for the match to begin.

This will be a fierce duel, a contest of strength and fire.

The Hammer Brothers exchanged a glance, preparing to strike first.

Suddenly, they moved.

The two men stepped to the left and right simultaneously, raising their black iron hammers high.

With the sudden flash of the third spirit ring, two enormous black iron hammers were swung simultaneously, unleashing a surge of powerful energy.

Chapter 43 Martial Soul Fusion Skill

For a long time, Yan has maintained a fighting habit of letting his opponent make the first move.

This strategy allows him to observe and analyze his opponent's attack patterns, thereby finding exploitable weaknesses.

This time, when he faced twin brothers wielding black iron hammers, his strategy remained unchanged.

The moment the black iron hammer appeared, he knew that both of them were power-attack type Soul Masters with extremely strong power.

Yan was well aware that Huo Wu, who fought alongside him, was a control-type Soul Master. Although she had her unique strengths, she did not have the advantage in a pure power contest.

Therefore, when facing two such powerful opponents, they must quickly formulate a strategy to win by speed, because the longer it is delayed, the more disadvantageous it will be for them.

Moreover, this was the first time he and Huo Wu had teamed up, so they weren't very familiar with each other and their teamwork wasn't very smooth.

In contrast, the twin brothers on the other side not only share the same martial soul, but also have almost identical attack methods due to long-term joint training and combat. They have excellent tacit understanding and can achieve twice the result with half the effort when they cooperate.

The Iron Hammer Brothers unleashed their third soul skill without holding back from the very beginning, clearly hoping for a quick victory.

Faced with this situation, Yan had no time to hesitate. He shouted loudly to Huo Wu:

"Fire Dance, defend now!"

"understand!"

Huo Wu originally planned to unleash flames to attack, but after hearing Yan's instructions, she quickly changed her strategy.

Immediately afterwards, her third spirit ring lit up, releasing a fire resistance ring.

A dazzling ring of flame spread violently in all directions.

Almost at the same time, Yan's fourth spirit ring lit up, and his fourth spirit skill, Blazing Flame Slash, erupted.

The two powerful forces collided directly with the oncoming hammer force.

"boom!"

A deafening roar echoed across the arena.
