Chapter 126 Breakthrough in Battle
"Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex?" Mu Chen squinted at his opponent.
Student 0002 from Yuhua Academy, looking at the illusory image of the Golden Crocodile King behind Mu Chen, secretly exclaimed, "It's actually the Golden Crocodile King Martial Soul—"
"Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, Yu Hua Advanced Professional Soul Master Academy, he is Yu Tianlong!"
"Yu Tianlong! It really is Yu Tianlong!"
"Jade Dragon! Jade Dragon!"
Many veteran viewers deduced his identity from the martial soul of Yu Hua Academy No. 0002 and the academy he belonged to: Yu Tianlong, the prodigy of Yu Hua Advanced Professional Soul Master Academy!
"Yu Tianlong—" Mu Chen naturally heard the shouts of the surrounding audience and muttered to himself.
"So what if I'm a Soul Sect member? I'm never afraid!" Mu Chen's aura surged, and pale golden soul power rippled outwards from him.
"First Soul Skill: Golden Crocodile Tail Swing!"
With the Golden Crocodile King Martial Soul infused into him, Mu Chen flicked his crocodile tail towards Yu Tianlong, unleashing a roaring, pale golden attack.
The first yellow spirit ring beneath Yu Tianlong's feet flashed, and he shouted sharply:
"First Soul Skill: Thunder Dragon Claw!"
Lightning crackled around Yu Tianlong, his eyes seemingly containing a thousand thunderbolts. The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Martial Soul had enhanced his physical strength, elevating him to a new level.
Yu Tianlong condensed lightning into dragon claws with both hands and charged towards Mu Chen's attack, his white hair being blown about by the power of Mu Chen's skill.
"Ah! Ha!"
Yu Tianlong's hands, transformed into dragon claws, gripped Mu Chen's "Golden Crocodile Tail Swing," and with a burst of strength, tore it apart, creating a massive energy surge on the spot.
Mu Chen wasn't idle. He knew that it wouldn't be difficult for Yu Tianlong to defend against his "Golden Crocodile Tail Swing," so he prepared in advance for his next attack.
The Golden Crocodile King Martial Soul also granted Mu Chen a terrifying boost in strength and defense. His arms and legs became noticeably thicker.
Mu Chen exerted force with both legs, and just as Yu Tianlong tore apart the soul skill, he flashed directly in front of Yu Tianlong and threw a punch that had been charging up for a long time.
Yu Tianlong had anticipated this and hurriedly put his arms to defend, but he was still knocked back several meters by Mu Chen's punch before he regained his balance.
"Golden Crocodile Domain!" Mu Chen's eyes turned golden. This time, he deliberately focused the Golden Crocodile Domain entirely on himself, instead of forming the protective shield type he used before.
One advantage of doing this is that you are not afraid of being pulled, and the domain reinforcement effect can always act on yourself.
Mu Chen had some understanding of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Martial Soul. The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex was known for its attack speed, and Mu Chen knew this well. If he used that kind of shield, the amplification effect would disappear instantly once he was pulled out of the domain's range, which might put him in a predicament.
"Yes, he has a very thorough understanding of both his own martial soul and his opponent's martial soul."
Lei Meng, observing Mu Chen's behavior on the field, clearly understood the reason behind Mu Chen's actions and nodded in agreement.
Yu Tianlong moved around the perimeter like a blue lightning bolt, while Mu Chen held his ground in the center of the arena.
Yu Tianlong threw a casual punch, but Mu Chen was not affected at all. On the contrary, Yu Tianlong was knocked back.
"Damn, it's really hard!" Yu Tianlong shook his numb hand and muttered to himself.
"Third Soul Skill: Thunderous Might!"
The purple third soul ring under Yu Tianlong's feet flashed, and with a dragon's roar, the lightning around Yu Tianlong intensified. Multiple bolts of lightning struck Yu Tianlong, but instead of harming him, they continued to strengthen him.
"He's absorbing the power of lightning!" Tang Xuan said solemnly as he looked at the scene.
"Mu Chen—" Fang Ya looked at Mu Chen with some concern.
"Are you preparing to unleash your strongest attack?" Mu Chen, being closest to him, could naturally sense the surging power and pressure of Yu Tianlong, and mentally warned himself.
"Second Soul Skill: Protective Golden Light!!"
Mu Chen's second yellow spirit ring flashed beneath his feet, and his body was covered in hard scales, forming three golden rays of light around him. The light condensed to form three layers of protective shields, clearly indicating that he had made defensive preparations!
Yu Tianlong chuckled, "You think you can stop it like this? How naive!"
Yu Tianlong's hand seals changed, and the purple fourth soul ring under his feet flashed.
Fourth Soul Skill: Thunder Dragon Head!
Yu Tianlong's soul power flowed throughout his body, as if he were practicing Tai Chi.
"It looks gentle, but it's actually quite powerful. This kid's got some skills." Lei Meng carefully observed Yu Tianlong's every move and quickly made his analysis.
Yu Tianlong unleashed a punch, and a phantom image of a blue lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, resembling a real dragon descending to earth, hurtled towards Mu Chen.
The first protective barrier was breached immediately.
Mu Chen gritted his teeth, changed his hand seals, and circulated his soul power throughout his body. The Golden Crocodile King Martial Soul on his back felt increasingly materialized.
But how could Yu Tianlong's fourth soul skill, "Thunder Dragon Head," be blocked so easily?
Despite Mu Chen's full defensive effort, the second layer of the protective shield was still shattered by the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, and the surrounding lightning poured down on the shield, causing the cracks to widen.
"You've already done quite well, but—you're a Soul Master, while I'm a Soul Sect Master!"
Yu Tianlong smiled slightly, as if victory was assured, revealing the posture of a victor.
"Third Brother, you can do it," Qian Yuhan thought to himself.
"Go for it, third brother!" Tang Xuan shouted.
Although Tang Chen didn't say anything, he was still encouraging Mu Chen by raising his fist.
Fang Ya, like Tang Xuan, shouted, "Go for it, Mu Chen!!"
The glass partition in the private room couldn't block the loud shouts of encouragement and cheers from the friends.
Mu Chen naturally heard it, especially Fang Ya's voice.
"I—I absolutely cannot lose!!" The little voice inside Mu Chen's head roared.
Mu Chen gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, "The word 'surrender' doesn't exist in my dictionary. You haven't won yet! Come on!!"
Mu Chen's aura surged once more, and his left arm emitted an earthy yellow light.
"The Earth King's Right Arm Soul Bone Skill: Savage Tremor!"
Mu Chen clenched his right fist and slammed it directly into the ground. The fist was as heavy as a thousand pounds, cracking the earth and spreading seismic waves, causing the ground beneath Yu Tianlong's feet to shake continuously, already showing signs of cracking.
Due to the violent shaking, Yu Tianlong constantly adjusted his center of gravity.
Yu Tianlong quickly made a decision: abandon the attempt to stabilize his body and mobilize all his soul power to win with a single blow!
The power of "Thunder Dragon Head" increased slightly, and the second shield shattered instantly. The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex charged straight at the first shield, which also cracked and quickly shattered.
Mu Chen was surprised that Yu Tianlong would give up trying to stabilize himself and unleash this attack with all his might.
He originally planned to use the "Wilderness Tremor" to force Yu Tianlong to mobilize some of his soul power to stabilize his body, but things didn't go as planned.
Mu Chen didn't have time to mobilize his soul power before being directly struck head-on by the "Thunder Dragon Head," causing the skill to explode and filling the air with smoke.
"Aaaaaah!!" Mu Chen was in excruciating pain all over his body from the lightning power contained in the "Thunder Dragon Head," as if ants were gnawing at his skin!
Fortunately, the "Thunder Dragon Head" broke through the "Golden Protective Light" and its power was greatly reduced. Mu Chen barely managed to withstand the attack thanks to the enhanced defensive capabilities of the "Golden Crocodile Domain" and the greatly improved physical qualities brought about by the Martial Soul's possession. However, his meridians were still injured, and blood gushed out in the air.
What's even more unbearable is the constant onslaught of lightning.
"Surrender, you've lost!" Yu Tianlong said slowly, clutching his chest and panting heavily.
"Aaaaaah!! I, I haven't lost yet!! Ughhhhh!!"
Mu Chen slowly opened his eyes, his blood seemingly boiling, surging through his meridians. A faint golden light emanated from his body—
To Mu Chen's surprise, the lightning power seemed to be absorbed by the pale golden light he emitted. The pain in his body lessened considerably, and he felt as if a power was gathering within him, ready to erupt at any moment.
"Mu Chen!!" Fang Ya shouted.
……
As the smoke slowly dissipated, Mu Chen stopped shouting.
"What?!!"
Just as Yu Tianlong breathed a sigh of relief, thinking he had won, a voice rang out, causing him to exclaim in surprise.
As the smoke dissipated, Mu Chen slowly emerged, surrounded by golden lightning.
"Impossible! How could you possibly be at this time—" Yu Tianlong's eyes widened in disbelief!
"Well done, Third Brother!" Qian Yuhan exclaimed excitedly.
Lei Meng said, "You have a high level of comprehension. Even in times of crisis, you remained calm and composed, absorbing and transforming the power of lightning, breaking through and rebuilding—"
Fang Ya excitedly covered her cherry-like mouth, tears welling in her eyes: "Mu Chen... he broke through—"
