Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Spinning Top, Explosive Warrior

A blinding white light enveloped his body, which rapidly expanded, his arms transforming into ferocious tiger claws, and white fur appeared on his skin, exuding the fierce aura of the king of beasts.

"Second Soul Skill: White Tiger Blazing Light Wave!"

With its tiger's mouth wide open, a beam of energy formed from blazing white light roared out and shot straight at Wang Teng!

At this moment, Wang Teng was multitasking, controlling two large spinning tops to kill the other two people. Faced with this sudden attack, he had no way to dodge.

"First Soul Skill: Netherworld Thrust!"

At the critical moment, Zhu Zhuqing, who should have been unconscious, suddenly woke up and her figure transformed into a dark and swift shadow, flashing in front of Wang Teng.

"boom!"

The energy pillar slammed heavily into her.

Zhu Zhuqing flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing into Wang Teng's watermelon cart, instantly shattering all the watermelons into pieces, their juice spilling everywhere.

"You bastard, how dare you smash my melon!"

"Second Soul Skill: Crimson Flame Divine Bird Spinning Top!"

Wang Teng retaliated in anger, and the deep yellow and almost purple spirit ring under his feet shone brightly.

A fiery red spinning top appeared out of thin air and landed on the ground.

"Wow—"

A clear cry echoed through the forest, and the sacred beast Flame Bird of the Crimson Flame Divine Bird Spinning Top took flight, circling and dancing above the top.

Wang Teng unleashed his full soul power, and the Crimson Flame Divine Bird Spinning Top and the Gale Divine Steed Spinning Top, which had just killed the woman of the night, simultaneously changed direction and headed towards the armored captain to encircle him!

Ultimate Technique: Phantom Wind Chaser!

Ultimate Technique: Celestial Fox Flame!

The sacred beast Gale Steed raises its head and neighs, while the sacred beast Flame Bird flaps its wings and sings a clear song.

A blue whirlwind surged wildly around the Fierce Wind Steed Spinning Top.

Crimson fire tornadoes roared and formed around the Crimson Firebird Spinner.

"Combined Attack Technique: Wind and Fire Double Strike!"

This is a combined offensive strategy that Wang Teng independently developed during his six months of arduous training in Guagua Village.

The two spinning tops have complementary attributes, and after their soul skills are fused, their power is far more than just a simple addition.

The next moment, the wind tornado and the fire tornado met on the field.

Instead of canceling each other out, the two intertwined and merged together, transforming into a giant firestorm over ten meters high, which swept towards the armored captain with overwhelming force!

"Third Soul Skill: White Tiger Vajra Transformation!"

The armored captain roared, his body swelling again, his muscles bulging, and his shirt was completely torn apart.

His skin revealed clear black tiger stripes; his paws grew enormous, and his claws gleamed with a chilling silver light.

The armored captain was enveloped in dazzling golden light, his pupils gleaming with a menacing glint, like a true king of the jungle.

However, even though the armored captain had already used his enhanced soul skill, he still felt uneasy in the face of the engulfing firestorm.

"First Soul Skill: White Tiger Protective Shield!"

A white light shield instantly opened, firmly protecting him within it.

Almost simultaneously, the firestorm engulfed him.

At first, the storm was unable to break through the protective barrier.

The armored captain gritted his teeth and endured the flames, his tiger-like eyes glaring angrily as he continuously poured his soul power into the protective shield.

However, a minute later.

"Crack!"

A crisp cracking sound rang out, followed by the armored captain's shrill scream.

The wailing lasted for a full three minutes before gradually weakening and finally disappearing completely.

The flames died down, leaving only a charred corpse on the ground.

Wang Teng looked at the mangled corpse at his feet, breathing slightly heavily.

This was his first... second time killing someone... but it was the first time he had killed an opponent with a higher soul power than himself.

"So... I'm already this strong?"

Wang Teng looked down at his hands, feeling somewhat dazed and incredulous.

"Haha...hahaha—"

After a moment of silence, the boy's suppressed laughter gradually rose, eventually turning into a long, unrestrained howl that echoed through the quiet forest, startling a flock of birds in the distance.

Chapter 117 The Melon Vendor at the Crossroads

Two weeks later, at the crossroads.

Under the blazing sun, the air was filled with sweltering heat, and the road surface was baked white by the sun.

Under the shade of a tree, a boy squatted beside a wheelbarrow piled high with round, bright green watermelons.

This young man was Wang Teng.

A full week has passed since Zhu Zhuqing left.

Two weeks ago, Wang Teng unexpectedly saved the seriously injured girl, and the two came to this intersection to take refuge.

Wang Teng sets up a melon stall here every day, while Zhu Zhuqing rests quietly in the woods by the roadside.

Seven days later, her injuries had improved slightly, and she left without a word.

Wang Teng didn't say much about Zhu Zhuqing's sudden departure.

The two were just strangers who met by chance. Although he was fairly good-looking, he was just an ordinary soul master after all. There was no way he would actually repay a life-saving debt with his body.

Before leaving, Zhu Zhuqing simply left behind a bag of gold soul coins as a token of her gratitude.

When Wang Teng picked up the bag of money where Zhu Zhuqing was resting, it would be a lie to say that he felt no sense of loss whatsoever.

However, Wang Teng was ultimately a time traveler who understood reality, knowing what he should and shouldn't think about.

In the end, he only muttered to himself, "What a scoundrel," and continued to push his cart out every day, selling his watermelons obediently.

However, to Wang Teng's surprise, the watermelon business was surprisingly good.

Even though he priced it at one silver soul coin each, merchants and travelers still flocked to the area.

In just a few days, most of the melons stored in the soul storage device have already been sold.

"Hey buddy, pick one for me."

The customers' greetings pulled Wang Teng back from his wandering thoughts.

"Okay, here you go."

He deftly picked up a melon and handed it over.

Seeing that the watermelons on the truck were almost empty again, Wang Teng quickly took out a dozen more from his soul tool to replenish them.

"At this rate, I wonder if Tang San will be able to get here before all the watermelons are sold out..."

Wang Teng couldn't help but frown; this was the first time he had ever worried about business being so good.

Just as Wang Teng was considering whether to set off fewer melons and delay the event a little longer, a familiar, clear voice suddenly came from the side.

"Wang Teng? What are you doing here?"

Wang Teng looked up and saw Xiao Wu standing not far away with a smile on her face.

At this time, Xiao Wu was already twelve years old. Her pink dress made her skin look even whiter, and her long legs were particularly eye-catching under the skirt.

Her cool and refreshing outfit, paired with her lively expression, makes her look like a vibrant and energetic young girl.

Following behind Xiao Wu was the person Wang Teng had been waiting for—Tang San.

"Xiao Wu, Tang San!"

Wang Teng smiled, waved to them, and then asked with feigned surprise, "What are you all doing here?"

“We just graduated from Notting College and are planning to go to Soto City to attend a new college.”

Tang San explained, his tone still calm and composed.

He glanced at Wang Teng and the truck full of watermelons, and asked in confusion, "What about you? I heard you went to be a mercenary, what are you doing selling watermelons here now?"

"Oh, forget it."

Wang Teng waved his hand, revealing a helpless expression, and explained, "When my older brother and I were out doing mercenary work, we accidentally offended someone, so we had to quit."

"As for selling watermelons... I'm just doing it to earn some living expenses."

"Hey you two, stop talking so much!"

By this time, Xiao Wu had already hopped to the melon cart, her eyes fixed on the large green melons, and shouted, "Wang Teng, cut one quickly, I'm dying of thirst!"

Seeing how eager she looked, Wang Teng couldn't help but laugh and said, "Alright, alright, I'm coming right now."

He casually picked up the biggest and roundest one and applied a little pressure with his palm.

"boom!"

The watermelon split into four pieces with a snap, revealing red flesh, black seeds, and abundant juice.

Wang Teng handed each of them a petal, and Tang San didn't stand on ceremony, taking one and taking a bite.

"Boss, give us three melons!"

At that moment, several more people dressed as traveling merchants arrived next to Wang Teng's melon cart.

"Alright, one Silver Soul Coin each."

Wang Teng turned around and replied.

"So expensive?"

The merchant's eyes widened.
