Douluo Continent: The Peerless Tang Sect - Sharingan Intercepts Tianmeng

Chapter 37 Laughing at the Mortal World: I finally won! Others: What's so great about a Soul Sect defeating a Soul Venerable?

Yan Shaozhe was taken aback by what the Titan Ape Erming said. His first reaction was that Erming was not satisfied with what they had given him, but judging from Erming's expression, he did not seem to be being sarcastic.

"Ahem, in short, my Haotian Sect doesn't need your two soul bones. You can just apologize for this matter. There's no need to give anything back. On one hand, our Haotian Sect doesn't need it, and on the other hand, I was also at fault after that incident. That's it, you don't need to give anything back."

Erming left the Sea God Pavilion after speaking. Yan Shaozhe and Elder Xuan silently followed Erming without saying anything. Afterwards, Erming comforted Wang Dong'er and left the academy after completing the task assigned by Tang San. Seeing Erming leave the academy without Elder Mu saying anything, Elder Xuan and the others were finally relieved.

Thanks to Erming's maneuvering, Huo Yuhao was successfully injured in this crisis without gaining anything, which is typical of Haotian Sect's routine operations.

…………

While Huo Yuhao's luck was being suppressed by the Haotian Sect and he couldn't unleash it, Xiao Qiang was brought before a group of five-ring Soul Kings, Xiao Hongchen, and Meng Hongchen at the Mingde Hall of the Sun Moon Empire.

"His name is Xiao Qiang. He is the disciple of the Hall Master. The Hall Master arranged for him to participate in the upcoming Continental Advanced Soul Master Tournament as a substitute player, just like Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen."

Teacher Jingyun gave a brief introduction to Xiao Qiang's situation, after which Xiao Qiang greeted everyone.

Xiao Qiang's greetings were decent, neither particularly good nor bad. Normally, he wouldn't leave a very good or bad impression. However, as Jing Hongchen's disciple, Xiao Qiang was a direct descendant of Jing Hongchen, just like Xiao Hongchen.

Compared to the arrogant Xiao Hongchen, Xiao Qiang's initiative in greeting everyone seemed extremely rare and pleasing to the eye.

"Hello, Xiao Qiang. My name is Ma Rulong, and I am the captain of this team. My current cultivation level is 58."

"Hello, Brother Ma."

Xiao Qiang shook hands with everyone in turn. After all the main team members had gotten to know each other, Xiao Qiang came to Xiao Hongchen. Instead of speaking first, Xiao Hongchen spoke first.

"Old Ma, my grandfather suddenly has someone else join him, and it won't be easy for him to get to know them completely in a short time. How about we have a fight so we can get to know each other's abilities?"

The man Xiao Hongchen calls Old Ma is Ma Rulong's father and also the instructor of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy in the original work.

Upon hearing Xiao Hongchen's words, his first reaction was to think to himself that they seemed to have plenty of time; there was still almost a year before the competition started, and they could slowly work together and adapt.

But since Xiao Hongchen, the grandson of the hall master, had said so, and Xiao Qiang didn't object, Old Ma nodded.

"Alright, then you and Xiao Qiang can have a little sparring session, but be careful not to overdo it."

"Don't worry, I'll definitely be careful," Xiao Hongchen said through gritted teeth, her injuries from Xiao Qiang's beating now completely healed.

Xiao Qiang looked at Xiao Hongchen, who was full of fighting spirit, and sighed helplessly. Then he asked about Tianmeng in the Sea of ​​Spirit.

"Brother Tianmeng, without actually hurting me, how do you think we can make Xiao Hongchen's victory seem more realistic?"

"Huh? Why are you asking that?"

"There are two reasons. First, I feel it's a bit unreasonable that I beat someone up three times after taking more than ten million from them."

"Secondly, I feel that Xiao Hongchen seems a bit obsessed. If I beat him a third time, I'm afraid he'll challenge me to a fight every day until he beats me."

For some reason, in Xiao Qiang's eyes, Xiao Hongchen seemed to overlap somewhat with the sword fanatic Ji Juechen from the original work.

"Let him win, okay, I'll leave this to you."

After Tianmeng agreed, Xiao Hongchen and Xiao Qiang arrived at the competition venue. As Ma Lao's life began, Xiao Hongchen immediately put on his mental defense-type soul tool.

This soul tool should normally be at least level seven, not something that a soul master like Xiao Hongchen, who is not even level five, could make.

However, this is the Sun Moon Empire after all, and Xiao Hongchen's grandfather, Jing Hongchen, is the head of Mingde Hall. Looking at the entire continent, Jing Hongchen is at least one of the top three in terms of soul tools.

Modifying a level 7 soul tool to a level 5 soul tool is not easy, but not easy does not mean impossible, and Jing Hongchen is clearly capable of overcoming this difficulty.

Although this level 5 soul tool is a heavily downgraded version compared to a level 7 soul tool, it is still perfectly capable of defending against a mental soul master who is only around level 30. In fact, according to Jing Hongchen's speculation, this soul tool is even strong enough to defend against the mental attacks of a mental soul master at the level of a five-ring soul king.

Any stronger and it won't work, after all, this is just a nerfed level 5 soul tool.

After putting on the mental defense-type soul tool, Xiao Hongchen quickly used a similar battle tactic as before. Thirty-six soul-guided cannons were created by Xiao Hongchen using his first three soul skills. However, this time, compared to the previous time, the firing rate and power were significantly smaller.

However, the fact that it is less powerful does not mean that Xiao Qiang can ignore it. The three-tomoe Sharingan still needs to be carefully observed and dodged.

This time, Xiao Hongchen's soul power consumption was much less than the previous two times. Although Xiao Qiang's soul power consumption was still small, his physical strength consumption was quite large.

After fighting for a while, Xiao Qiang realized Xiao Hongchen's purpose. Xiao Hongchen was using his soul power to wear down Xiao Qiang's stamina, to see whether Xiao Qiang's stamina would give out first or his soul power would give out first.

"After being beaten twice, he became much more steady. It's true what they say, you can't teach someone by just talking, but you can learn something after trying twice."

Xiao Qiang silently complained to himself, thinking that defeating Xiao Hongchen was still possible, after all, the level of the mental defense soul tool Xiao Hongchen was wearing was there.

Tianmeng gave Xiao Qiang a boost, and the Sharingan combined with Tianmeng gave Xiao Qiang a second boost. With this level of enhancement, Xiao Qiang's mental strength was not even inferior to that of a six-ring Soul Emperor, a mental-type Soul Master. It would be relatively easy for him to deal with a level five Soul Tool.

However, to prevent Xiao Hongchen from constantly looking for a fight, it's better to lose this battle once.

Therefore, after Xiao Hongchen and Xiao Qiang had been fighting for more than ten minutes, Xiao Qiang first showed signs of exhaustion, and his clothes were torn by Xiao Hongchen's fire.

Xiao Qiang glanced at his clothes, which were damaged by the artillery fire, and then used his Level 4 Soul Guidance Propulsion Device to try to close the distance with Xiao Hongchen.

Seeing Xiao Qiang flying towards him, Xiao Hongchen's lips curled up. He reduced the power of his cannon fire once again in exchange for a faster attack speed. As the two got closer and closer, Xiao Qiang was finally hit in the chest by a soul-guided cannon shot from Xiao Hongchen after they were close enough to be blasted away by the cannon fire.

Old Ma quickly arrived at Xiao Qiang's side and injected his soul power into Xiao Qiang's body. He was surprised to find that Xiao Qiang's injuries seemed to be all on his clothes, but he understood the result when he thought about how Xiao Hongchen had deliberately reduced the power.

"The victor laughs at the world."

When he heard Master Ma say that he had won, Xiao Hongchen was stunned for a moment, and then he almost burst into tears of joy.

He had been beaten twice, and now he had finally won. This was no easy feat. Sure enough, he knew that Xiao Hongchen was the number one genius of the Sun Moon Empire.

As Xiao Hongchen stood tall and proud, they were filled with questions when they saw Ma Rulong, who had defeated Xiao Qiang.

"What's there to be proud of, a four-ring Soul Master defeating a three-ring Soul Venerable?"

"that is."

Laughing at the World: "..."
