Douluo: The Peerless Sun and Moon Mechanical God

Lin Qing VS Meng Hongchen.

This was a fierce battle at the semi-final level. In the eyes of the more than 10,000 teachers and students of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, Lin Qing and the Hongchen siblings were firmly ranked among the top three in combat power under the Mingde Hall.

Referee number 24 took a deep breath, suddenly feeling a great sense of responsibility.

On one side is the dean's granddaughter and a pillar of the Sun and Moon Sect, and on the other side is a dragon crossing the river from the Three Kingdoms of Douluo, and the future pillar of the Red Dust Sect handpicked by the dean.

The battle between them needs to be carefully controlled; otherwise, given the narrow-mindedness of the Hall Master, if any accident occurs, the referee will surely be in deep trouble.

To keep his high-paying job with a permanent position, the referee was on high alert, ready to rush to the rescue of the loser at any time, silently praying that the two little devils, who see each other every day, would hold back a bit.

"The match begins!"

The referee's voice trembled as he sounded the battle horn, and the audience erupted in a deafening cheer, encouraging the two top students.

Meng Hongchen gazed at the tall, upright young man on the other side of the battle stage, his burning fighting spirit blazing fiercely.

As unparalleled dual cultivation geniuses of the Sun Moon Empire, Miss Meng's inner pride has never been less than Xiao Hongchen's.

Hey bro, you go to the back and get your number called. I'm going to have a big fight with Lin Qing first!

"Buzz—"

A chilling wave of soul power spread out, turning Meng Hongchen's exposed skin snow-white, her icy skin and jade-like bones crystal clear. At the same time, her icy blue eyes turned into a vivid and dazzling blood red.

Martial spirit possession, Zhu Qingbing Toad.

The stark contrast between her snow-white skin and blood-red eyes made the originally delicate and lively girl appear somewhat sinister and terrifying.

As soon as Zhu Qingbingchan appeared, some trainees in the audience shivered and suddenly recalled the less-than-pleasant scene.

The siblings Hongchen and Meng Hongchen enrolled in the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy on the same day, but Meng Hongchen's popularity was drastically different from her brother's, and the root cause was their martial souls.

The three-legged toad, nicknamed the Metal Master, has an extremely gorgeous golden color that attracts attention. The toad, which symbolizes bringing wealth and treasures, fits the popular concept of a spiritual mentor.

The Zhu Qing Ice Toad, known as the king of the cracks, lives on the edge of the far north. It uses the ice attribute in its body and the fire attribute hidden in its eyes to alternate between hot and cold, thus giving birth to the mysterious and deadly poison of the Zhu Qing Ice Toad.

In just a few years, the Hongchen siblings have advanced from first grade to fifth grade. There are quite a few students in the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy who have fought against them, and Meng Hongchen has also made a name for himself with his super combat power.

However, beneath Xiao Meng's fame lurked a deep fear among her classmates, for the battle would inevitably end with her being rendered unconscious by Zhu Qing's Ice Toad poison. Although Meng Hongchen would be able to cure the poison afterward, enduring the onslaught of the deadly poison would undoubtedly be an immense ordeal, one they would never forget.

As time went on, Zhu Qingbing's toad poison became increasingly potent. Once bitten, twice shy, many Sun Moon Academy students who had suffered from her poison dared not approach her and gradually kept their distance.

After studying at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy for three months, Meng Hongchen would inevitably have to use the Zhu Qing Ice Toad Martial Soul during practical training.

It's a well-known fact that poison-attribute soul masters are disliked. Lin Qing could clearly see the apprehension in his classmates' eyes. Personally, he actually quite liked Xiao Meng, who possessed a martial soul.

With white hair and red eyes, Lin Qing's genes flow with a unique doting affection for this.

Our ancestors have used the phrase "white hair and youthful face" to describe immortals since ancient times. If we apply it to today, it would be like a white-haired loli!

With long white hair and red eyes, the girl gazes at you with a gentle yet passionate look, making your heart skip a beat!

"Watch out!"

With a touch of martial virtue, Meng Hongchen raised four spirit rings beneath her feet. As expected of the apple of the eye of the Hongchen family, the spirit ring configuration of this precious jewel was the standard extreme configuration of yellow and purple.

With her toes touching the ground, she charged forward, and Zhu Qingbing's first soul ring shone brightly. Meng Hongchen pushed out a cloud of white mist with both palms, the mist faintly tinged with blue.

First Soul Skill: Ice Toad Poison.

Meng Hongchen unleashed his full power, unleashing a torrent of ice mist that raged across the No. 24 arena, rapidly expanding and enveloping most of the battle stage.

"null--"

A flash of silver light appeared, and mechanical elements condensed into slender blades shaped like willow leaves, forming an impenetrable net of sharp blades that shattered the icy mist. The silver light was dazzling, and the poisonous fog could not cross the line even slightly.

"It's not working as expected... The extreme elements are too much of a counter to me."

Seeing this, Meng Hongchen, who had taken the initiative to attack, muttered to himself.

Martial Souls possess innate abilities distinct from Soul Skills, such as the metal control of the Three-Legged Toad and the tenacity of the Lone Bamboo. Elemental Martial Souls, on the other hand, can transform the surrounding energy into their own kind.

Due to the vast difference in the quality of their martial souls, the ice mist of the Zhu Qing Ice Toad was crushed by the mechanical element, and along with the terrifying Zhu Qing Ice Toad poison, it was rewritten as part of the ultimate gold.

In fact, Lin Qing chose to yield out of consideration for the girl's self-esteem. Otherwise, with the release of his innate domain and the steel mechanical domain forming an iron wall, Xiao Meng would probably have been forced to concede defeat with a pout.

At this moment, Meng Hongchen had no intention of admitting defeat. He flipped his hands and grasped two level-four peak soul guide swords.

The siblings, Hongchen and Meng Hongchen, complemented each other in both ranged and melee combat. The brother was responsible for overwhelming the enemy with firepower, while the sister excelled at close-quarters combat. With her icy blue slender sword, she created two dazzling sword flowers. Meng Hongchen silently recited the words "Take Lin Qing back to the ancestral home to meet the parents" and tried her best to hypnotize herself to surpass her limits!

The twin swords flashed across the sky, their icy blue light condensing and not dissipating, crossing into a poignant cross that sliced ​​through the air, hurtling towards Lin Qing with lightning speed, leaving a trail of bluish-white mist in its wake. Zhu Qing's Ice Toad Poison, using the sword light as cover, stealthily attempted to break through the mechanical elemental defense.

"boom--"

A pink light shield expanded outwards, inverted to protect Lin Qing. The sweet and charming color immediately struck the hearts of the girls at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, as well as the boys' stubbornly undeniable girlish hearts!

Level 4 Soul Tool, Sweetheart Protective Shield!

Pinduoduo's best-selling products, the Kaichao series!

The evacuation of a million people was comparable to that of inhuman evil spirit masters. Lin Qing still remembered the order from the number one rich woman, Xu Jiujiu, and made the order on time. Now it just happens to replace the top-of-the-line weapons such as the Mechanical King Shield and Dragon Devourer to fight against Meng Hongchen!

Don't underestimate the power of a bean bun. As long as it's a soul tool made of ultimate gold, its effect can't be bad. The sword light released by the level four soul tool sword only stirred up a few pink ripples on the Sweetheart Protective Shield, and it was far from breaking.

With his first Soul Skill, Zero Generation Burst, Lin Qing unleashed a series of white and green chains. The magnetic chains, with their flower-like cores, danced and swirled wildly, surrounding Miss Meng from the sky and the ground before piercing her away together.

Faced with an inescapable net, Meng Hongchen abruptly stopped. A ring of icy blue light spread into the distance, and the ground froze into a solid sheet of ice, smooth as a mirror, reflecting the azure sky.

The next second, a bizarre scene suddenly appeared. The magnetic chain of the flower heart pierced through Meng Hongchen from multiple angles without any substantial resistance, easily penetrating him. The figure then turned into light spots and vanished completely. The real Meng Hongchen had changed his position.

Zhu Qingbing Toad's third soul skill: Ice Refraction.

A mirror-like ice plate is formed, and its position can be arbitrarily changed by the refraction of light and shadow.

With a flash, Meng Hongchen released her third soul skill, Ice Refraction, to change her position and dodge the attack of the Flower Heart Magnetic Chain once again. Her two slender swords danced, creating a sky full of sword shadows, constantly searching for the flaws in the pink protective shield.

A thin layer of sweat covered Meng Hongchen's fair forehead, and her breathing became heavier. Logically speaking, poison-attribute soul masters are not afraid of prolonged battles and are even willing to maneuver their opponents to prolong the fight.

After all, the longer the battle lasts, the deeper the poisoning becomes, and the higher the win rate of poison-attribute soul masters.

However, this situation did not apply to Lin Qing. The mechanical elements were like top-notch security guards at the gate of the community, holding up a pink protective shield that stopped anyone from entering, and coldly refusing the Ice Toad Poison that tried to break through the gate on an electric bike.

The poisonous creature kept scratching its head and could only stand helplessly in front of the door.

The limitations of Zhu Qingbingchan are evident. With half of its abilities being highly poisonous, this type of martial soul becomes helpless once it encounters an impenetrable fortress.

This is one of the reasons why poisonous properties are rarely considered refined or elegant.

A Soul Master's physique improves along with their cultivation level, and their resistance to various strange toxins increases steadily. After reaching the level of a Nine-Ring Title Douluo, a Poison-Attribute Soul Master is generally considered to be relatively weak compared to others of the same level.

Ten thousand years ago, a powerful figure with the title of "Poison" was known as the "bottom-ranked" among those with the title of "Poison".

Fortunately, the Douluo Continent has entered an era where soul tools are prevalent. Meng Hongchen realized the flaws of Zhu Qingbing Toad and wanted to create a soul tool armor to fully enhance himself and ensure his combat power at the minimum level when Zhu Qingbing Toad's poison was ineffective.

You flee, I chase; Xiao Meng has nowhere to escape. Lin Qing noticed that Meng Hongchen's ice refraction rate and resistance were becoming increasingly strained. Sensing that the battle was nearing its end, he decided to deliver the final blow.

A crescent-shaped golden dart appeared on each side. Lin Qing brought his hands together, and the two darts merged into one, transforming into a Happy Boomerang.

He spun half a circle, making a swinging motion similar to throwing a discus, and the dart whistled as it sliced ​​through the icy blue sword energy, drawing a golden arc as it struck Meng Hongchen!

"Ice Refraction!"

Having escaped death by using the same trick again, Meng Hongchen had just breathed a sigh of relief on the ice when, unbeknownst to her, the Happy Boomerang suddenly turned around mid-air and came at her a second time!

"Click—"

The crisp sound of the soul-guiding shield shattering rang out. Meng Hongchen had no choice but to activate the soul-guiding shield, clinging to a sliver of hope for turning the tide.

"I've never seen these soul tools before! Just how many secrets are you hiding?!"

Meng Hongchen gritted her teeth and loudly accused him!

That Lin Qing is really wicked; she's used every dirty trick in the book on her!

With her soul power nearly depleted, Meng Hongchen knew that continuing to drag things out would inevitably lead to defeat. The pride of this genius girl would not allow her to suffer such a crushing defeat, and her blood-red pupils were filled with an overwhelming determination to deliver a fatal blow!

The final, fourth spirit ring shone brightly!

His blood-red pupils shone brightly, and a dark red light shone on his well-developed chest, soaking in all the remaining ice mist and toxins on Battle Platform Twenty-Four and reabsorbing them into Meng Hongchen's body.

The fourth soul skill, Ice Feedback, uses the Flaming Eyes as its source to activate Zhu Qing's Ice Toad Poison, transforming it into pure energy to feed back to herself, maximizing her attack power. The price is that she can no longer use the Ice Toad Poison in this battle.

The ultimate gold was like an impregnable fortress. Zhu Qingbingchan experienced the sorrow of the extinct demon spider, exchanging useless poison for attack power, which was almost the only resistance she could make in Meng Hongchen's desperate situation.

The icy blue slender sword was now tinged with the crimson of flames. With the soul guide attached to the dual ice and fire, the two swords swung aside the magnetic chains and boomerangs, and Meng Hongchen charged forward, aiming straight for Lin Qing's head!

However, to Xiaomeng's surprise, Lin Qing smiled and put away the pink protective shield, then pulled out a pair of melee weapons and charged at her without dodging or avoiding!

Beware of instant slashes.

An overwhelming force erupted the moment the swords clashed. The white-haired, red-eyed girl was forced to retreat through the air, her brows furrowed with resentment. Her opponent stood motionless, a blue soul-guided cannon locking onto its target, and six crimson shells roared into the air!

Careless missile!

"A ruthless man destroys flowers; a true hero indeed!"

The audience members exuded awe and reverence!

See? This is a tough guy who braves wind and rain. Even if it's a super beautiful girl he's close to, he'll still mercilessly fire a cannonball at her!

"wrong!"

Finishing off an enemy is a combat instinct, and Lin Qing reacted immediately. His mechanical element surged out like a giant dragon, detonating the careless missile midway.

"Cough, cough!"

Thick smoke billowed from the battle arena, and the first figure to rush out of the smoke was the referee.

Two or three seconds later, Meng Hongchen walked out looking disheveled, with slightly scorched ends to her snow-white hair.

Her entire appearance changed drastically, transforming from the fair-skinned and beautiful Miss Meng into the supreme black revered by the Sun Moon Empire.

The match ended, and Xiao Meng suffered a crushing defeat!

"Senior Lin Qing is so good at being sarcastic..."

"Yeah, he deliberately blew them up, then intercepted the bomb halfway and saved them. He's even more of a show-off than Brother Xiao!"

"Senior Meng must be furious!"

Huh!?

No, I didn't do it, don't talk nonsense!

The sound of crickets chirping in the audience reached his ears, and the misunderstanding snowballed instantly. Suddenly, Lin Qing's mind flashed back to that night at Zhanghua Garden three months ago, when Ye Guyi asked him in a sarcastic tone that he could actually make a level six soul guide armor.

The realization came too late. Had I misunderstood? Was Miss Angel not mocking me, but genuinely praising me...?

With this thought in mind, Lin Qing silently apologized, then glanced at Meng Hongchen out of the corner of her eye to observe her expression. The girl looked like she was about to interrogate him, her pouting red lips looking like they could hold three oil bottles!

Thinking about how "Don't Lose Because of Inability to Express Yourself" handled this situation, Lin Qing lowered her eyes, pondered for a moment, and then, with utmost sincerity, said:

"I can help you with a bowl of lye."

?

A big black question mark appeared above Miss Meng's head: Why not three bowls!

"Could you please raise your right hand?" Meng Hongchen said gently.

"OK."

Lin Qing was puzzled, but she obeyed and did as instructed.

"Awoo!"

With a loud roar, its tiny, blood-red mouth snapped at me!

"Phew...that finally felt good."

Husky wiped his smudged face with Lin Qing's sleeve, exhaled a breath of stale air, and his icy blue eyes curved into crescents, looking extremely smug, like a fox that had stolen a chick, baring his little white teeth and snorting:

"Thanks to you, I'm now preparing for the loser's bracket. See you tomorrow!"

Watching the girl's carefree figure gradually disappear into the distance, Lin Qing raised his hand and looked at his bitten wrist.

Besides the saliva residue, there was also a ring of tiny, delicate teeth marks.

Well, what a set of neat and beautiful teeth.
