Chapter 187: Beating Ma Hongjun to a Pulp
"Ho... how could this be?"
Today, the full-of-ideals Yu Xiaogang thought that his Shrek could achieve the best results when facing the Gulei Royal Academy and the Flying General, but he never expected that the very first moment he arrived at the arena, he would be slapped in the face.
That girl with short silver hair, holding a Cross Halberd and wearing dark blue tight-fitting armor, stood proudly on the field, disrupting all of the Grandmaster's deployments.
"Why did that mute go up first?" the Grandmaster said in disbelief.
"Xiao Gang, don't worry. Even if Lv Lingqi starts, Ma Hongjun won't necessarily perform poorly; his Fire Phoenix is still very strong," Liu Erlong comforted him from the side.
Before the Grandmaster could speak, Qin Ming shook his head, "It's not like that. Ma Hongjun can face anyone, but he cannot face this Lv Lingqi. Facing Lv Lingqi, not only is he bound to lose, but he will lose very miserably."
"Why?" Liu Erlong was somewhat puzzled. Although she was a Spirit Saint powerhouse and a former dean, she did not have deep research into theory, and academy teaching was previously delegated to other teachers.
"Because Ma Hongjun is an Explosive Flow Spirit Master among the Qiangong Xi. Unlike Dai Laoda, who is also a Qiangong Xi, Ma Hongjun's attacks rely on explosive power. His instantaneous output is far higher than Dai Laoda's, but the price he pays is the violent consumption of soul power. He cannot fight a war of attrition like Dai Laoda. Therefore, during team battles, Xiao Gang always has him coordinate with Xiao San, using Xiao San's control ability to assist his explosive power in defeating the enemy," Flender said.
"I understand. No matter how strong the attack power is, it's meaningless if it can't hit the opponent!" Liu Erlong was just not good at theory, but she was not stupid. With a few pointers from them, she immediately understood.
Lv Lingqi had extremely high combat literacy. She discovered Ma Hongjun's weakness at the first moment and was not in a hurry to attack.
He was in urgent need of venting now, but finding a woman at this time was impossible, so he could only let the Phoenix Evil Fire surge. Just like Ma Xiaotao in later generations, he would hurt people at every turn.
If it were an ordinary person bathing in this Phoenix Evil Fire, they would likely be dead or severely injured.
"Damn it! Second Soul Skill, Bathing Fire Phoenix! Third Soul Skill, Phoenix Wings Soar!" Ma Hongjun was completely unaware of Lv Lingqi's tactics. Having missed his attacks repeatedly, he became increasingly angry, and his eyes turned blood-red.
In fact, it was not difficult for Lv Lingqi to defeat Ma Hongjun. She didn't need to use this tactic, but after all, her goal was to sweep through Shrek, not just defeat one Ma Hongjun, so she had to minimize the consumption of physical strength and soul power.
After buffing himself with two major status skills, he sprayed flames crazily, seemingly preparing to incinerate the entire arena.
Ma Hongjun absolutely could not hit her.
She relied on her own movement technique to dodge attacks, consuming a large amount of Ma Hongjun's soul power.
On the field, the first time Ma Hongjun saw Lv Lingqi, he was captivated by her beautiful face, and his evil fire seemed to be boiling over.
"First Soul Skill, Phoenix Fire Line!"
"Such fast speed, far above mine!" Zhu Zhuqing frowned. With this kind of speed, let alone her, even her sister Zhu Zhuyun probably couldn't compare.
The surging Phoenix Evil Fire swept toward Lv Lingqi. As Lv Lingqi's figure swayed, she moved like Teleportation, easily dodging Ma Hongjun's attack.
Her movement technique was very peculiar; the speed was extremely fast, yet the range of motion was very small, and the physical exertion was also minimal.
"Not good, Ma Hongjun's evil fire has flared up," Flender said worriedly.
This was what he feared most. Once the evil fire flared up on the field, Ma Hongjun would lose his sanity. If he encountered someone stronger than him, it would be fine, but if he encountered someone he couldn't beat, he might be burned to ashes if his luck was bad.
"What a terrifying attack. This guy, he can't control the power of the Phoenix well, yet he still attacks with all his might. Isn't he afraid of hurting the innocent?" Shui Bing'er said with dissatisfaction.
She also had a situation similar to Ma Hongjun's. Once the Ice Phoenix's power was fully unleashed, she couldn't control it herself. Therefore, in every Spirit Fighting match, she would only exert seventy percent of her martial soul's power.
If not for this, she might not have lost to Nan Feiling before.
"Brother Feihuang, your teammate is in danger. Aren't you going up to save her?" Xue Ke shook Nan Feihuang's arm. Although she could see that Lv Lingqi was likely her love rival, she was kind-hearted by nature and didn't want such a beautiful girl to be burned to ashes.
Moreover, she felt that as the head wife of the household, she should be magnanimous. She had to show her status as the primary wife in front of this girl surnamed Lv, as well as that girl surnamed Qian who had previously caused Nan Feihuang's heart to be invaded by keywords.
"Does she think she can hurt Lingqi with just this bit of fire?" Nan Feihuang laughed, "Ke'er, watch carefully. This match will be decided immediately."
Ma Hongjun released soul skills continuously, consuming a great deal of soul power. Nan Feihuang could feel that the power of his flames was weakening.
In the sea of fire, Lv Lingqi's figure was revealed. She was seen strolling through the flames, with the Feilian Halberd spinning automatically beside her like a windmill. The violent reverse wind prevented all flames within a one-meter diameter around her from advancing even an inch.
Sensing that Ma Hongjun was running out of firepower, Lingqi reached out and grasped the center of the Feilian Halberd, spinning and shooting it out like a blood-dripping weapon.
It tore open a path to Ma Hongjun through the sea of fire.
Then Lingqi ran at high speed. The moment the Feilian Halberd was about to decapitate Ma Hongjun, she caught up to the flying halberd and grabbed it, then turned and delivered a roundhouse kick to Ma Hongjun's thick face, kicking him to the ground.
This kick woke Ma Hongjun up from the evil fire. He hurriedly spread his flaming wings, wanting to fly into the sky.
But Lv Lingqi reached out, grabbed his ankle firmly, and then smashed him hard onto the ground again.
"Boom, boom, boom..."
Lv Lingqi's strength was astonishing. Like blacksmithing, she smashed Ma Hongjun seven or eight times, and Ma Hongjun was completely unable to move.
"Damn it, what kind of monster strength is this? It's even stronger than Dai Laoda." Ma Hongjun was both angry and afraid, and he shouted repeatedly, "Stop, stop quickly, I admit defeat."
Hearing Ma Hongjun's shouts, Lv Lingqi stopped smashing him. "Hmph!" After a cold snort, she threw him out of the arena like trash.
"This... what a dashing woman. I feel like she's even more... than Huo Wu," at Kamikaze Academy Academy, Feng Xiaotian was somewhat stunned. His favorite type was girls like Huo Wu and Lv Lingqi.
His aesthetic in this regard was actually the same as Nan Feihuang's.
"No, I must be devoted to Huo Wu, I can't just change my affections," shaking his head, Feng Xiaotian forcibly stopped himself from continuing to let his imagination run wild.
In fact, he was just a microcosm. After several matches, Lv Lingqi had no defeats, and she had unknowingly accumulated great popularity.
In fact, many powerhouses on the continent started their fame through this Soul Master Tournament. For example, Nan Feihuang's mother Lan Xue, Shui Bing'er's mother, and others were all like this.
Today's match was also the opening ceremony for Lv Lingqi to become famous throughout the world.
