Chapter 836 The Spirit of Metal Laughs at the Mortal World
Upon arriving at the competition venue, Jiang Nannan hugged Ye Nanxiao before following the team onto the field.
Tang Ya grabbed a handful of popcorn from a bag and handed it to Ye Nanxiao. "What happened that made you so late?"
Ye Nanxiao took the popcorn and said, "I met some old friends and saw them off."
Tang Ya didn't understand the meaning behind Ye Nanxiao's words, nor did she respond to him. Instead, she pointed to the field and said, "We drew the Sun and Moon team in the first round of the draw. Xu Sanshi's luck is really bad!"
"Before you came, they were saying that if they had a tough time in this game, then they would have to rely on you for the rest of the competition."
"When did you submit my application form? Isn't it supposed to be confirmed in person? How come I didn't know?" Ye Nanxiao stuffed popcorn into his mouth one kernel at a time, without a hint of complaint in his voice, as if he had known all along that this would happen.
He will definitely register. His age is the same as Jiang Nannan's, which is within the appropriate age range for the competition.
"A relative can fill out the form on your behalf. Nan Nan and Sister Xiao Tao are your wives." Tang Ya smiled slyly.
Ye Nanxiao was initially unwilling to participate. Firstly, Tangmen had enough people, and his position overlapped with Huo Yuhao's, so a team didn't need two commanders. Secondly, with Ye Nanxiao's current strength, participating in the competition would be a solo show.
He has even fought against Super Douluo and even fought against gods. Although he didn't win, his combat experience is solid. Now that he's back to fight this group of students, how much effort should he put in?
"Where's Sister Xiaotao?" Ye Nanxiao asked, looking towards the waiting area of Shrek Academy.
"Sister Tao is busy. Dean Yan said he's going to train Sister Tao to be the next Dean of the Martial Soul Department, so he's letting Sister Tao familiarize herself with the work in advance." Tang Ya finally couldn't help but laugh as she said this.
"Great! That old Yan! He actually made my wife work overtime!" Ye Nanxiao finished the popcorn in his hand and reached out to grab another handful.
"Oh dear! There's not enough to eat!" Tang Ya protected her popcorn. This was the amount she could eat in a day; if she ate any more, she would gain weight.
Ye Nanxiao thought for a moment and said, "How about milk tea?"
"drink!"
On the field, the Tangmen team and the Sun Moon team slowly walked onto the stage and lined up opposite each other.
The audience's enthusiasm was ignited, creating a sound that shook the entire stadium.
Tickets for a single seat inside the venue have been resold at the highest price, and even time slots are being priced differently.
The competition's big screen displayed introductions of the two teams' members, especially the Tang Sect team, which won the final victory for Shrek Academy in the previous All-Continent Soul Master Tournament, making the competition incredibly exciting.
"If a live streaming industry existed right now, wouldn't we be rolling in money?" Ye Nanxiao sat in the waiting area, considering whether or not to start a live streaming industry.
There was no protective shield in the waiting area, and the enthusiastic voices of the audience could reach his ears.
"Live stream? What's that?" Hearing that she could make money, Tang Ya's little ears perked up instantly.
"We'll carry around the ball to record the game, and then sell it," Ye Nanxiao explained simply.
After listening, Tang Ya's eyes lit up. "This has potential!"
She plans to start this project as soon as she gets back.
On the field, as the broadcast announcing the players' information came on, the players from both teams were sizing up the opposing players.
Tang Clan Team: Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, Huo Yuhao, He Caitou, Jiang Nannan, Wang Dong'er, Xiao Xiao
Sun and Moon Team: Xiao Hongchen, Xiao Ming, Lan Xiu, Meng Hongchen, Xiao Ping, Jie Luo, Zuo Zhan
Ye Nanxiao looked at the list of players on the field, a hint of disbelief in his eyes.
This butterfly effect didn't change the Tang Clan's roster, but it did change the Sun and Moon Team's roster.
"Nanxiao, Nanxiao!"
Tang Ya's voice pulled Ye Nanxiao back from his reverie.
"What's wrong?" Ye Nanxiao asked.
Tang Ya pointed to the team information on the large screen opposite and said, "Sun Moon Team's lineup, how can they be so confident?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Nanxiao followed Tang Ya's gaze and saw on the large screen that the Sun and Moon team's composition consisted of two strong attackers, two supports, one controller, and two agile attackers.
This lineup, while possessing the most important elements of control, offense, and support, lacks defense against support, thus exposing a risk.
While offensive types can act as defenders and protect the support, they are not the best at defense.
Based on previous research on the Sun and Moon team, the Hongchen siblings are not outstanding in defense, and can even be said to be lacking, as they do not have any soul skills suitable for defense.
"Nanxiao, what did you teach these two siblings before?" Tang Ya asked. It wasn't that she was worried that Ye Nanxiao would train the Hongchen siblings too hard; she was just curious. She had absolute confidence in her companions.
"Xiao Hongchen's martial soul is naturally compatible with metal, and since he can transform into liquid metal, I simply taught him my theory of weapon reconstruction. With enough soul power, he can transform into a self-propelled turret anytime, anywhere. As for Meng Hongchen, I only taught him some fighting techniques," Ye Nanxiao said.
"Recombining weapons! Is this theory really feasible?!" Tang Ya asked excitedly.
Being able to freely transform into other types of weapons will greatly enhance the overall strength of the Tang Clan.
Ye Nanxiao shook his head slightly. "My metal experiments still need time, but Xiao Hongchen is able to use this theory because of his martial soul and soul skills."
"But there's also a certain risk: what if he can't revert to his original form before his soul power is exhausted?"
Tang Ya's pupils suddenly contracted. Try to imagine it: when those metals turn into blood and flow through the body, it explodes and dies. Is this what they mean?
"Nanxiao, this is so dangerous, Xiao Hongchen." Tang Ya frowned.
"He made his own choice. I've already explained the risks, but because of the characteristics of the three-legged toad, he won't be in any life-threatening danger. However, it's hard to say about his meridians," Ye Nanxiao said calmly.
Cultivation is about cultivating one's soul power, physical strength, and also inner strength.
Without a courageous heart, knowing the risks and choosing an alternative shortcut, or stopping altogether, one can never become a true strong person.
The team member information on the big screen quickly disappeared, and real-time images were displayed.
Game start!
Beibei and Lanxiu walked to the center of the arena and bowed to each other.
Under immense pressure, they no longer had the energy to engage in pre-match trash talk.
On their home turf, the Sun and Moon team neither wanted to nor could afford to lose.
The Tang Clan team, on the other hand, didn't want to lose either.
The key to the next stage lies here.
"Watch closely, you idiots! No detail can be missed in this match!"
Ma Xiaotao, hands on her hips, addressed the group of Shrek Academy members who were sitting upright.
Other teams also specifically assigned personnel to monitor this match.
"Tang Sect! Get dressed!" Bei Bei shouted, her arms rapidly transforming into dragon forms.
The latest novel is first published here!
The metallic roar resounded simultaneously from He Caitou and Huo Yuhao.
The dazzling golden light transformed into sharp blades that were slashed by the wings of the Goddess of Light Butterfly, while a desolate flute melody resounded throughout the arena.
Lan Xiu also clasped his hands together, and nine shimmering beads flew out, transforming into a large net.
Jero and Xiao Ming exchanged a glance, and armor appeared on their bodies at the same time. A red guqin appeared in Xiao Ming's hand, and with a flick of his wrist, the clear sound of the guqin rang out, confronting the Nine Phoenixes' Arrival Flute.
A large drum appeared in Jero's hand. He roared, his muscles bulged, and he used his fist as a drumstick to smash the drum.
The sounds of the zither and drums blended together, drowning out the flute music of "Nine Phoenixes Arriving."
Ye Nanxiao finally understood what the personnel changes in the Sun Moon Team meant: the Sun Moon Team had recruited Soul Masters!
Both Jero and Xiao Ming possess a strong Soul Master fighting style.
On the field, the Tang Clan members also thought of this.
He Caitou reacted quickly. Having secretly received training from the Aodu Chamber of Commerce, he instantly came up with a plan. The metal block on his back quickly deformed, extending gun barrels, and he held up a mid-range soul-guided cannon in each hand.
The next second, He Caitou took a deep drag on his cigar, his veins bulging, and his soul tools fired simultaneously.
Lightning crackled around Bei Bei, stimulating her to accelerate. Xu Sanshi descended from the sky, protecting Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong'er, and the others behind him.
"Attack with all your might!"
Ten soul-guided rays converged with several soul-guided cannons and launched a single attack.
Lan Xiu decisively withdrew his Nine Luminaries and stepped back.
Xiao Hongchen flashed forward, holding two metal blocks in his hands, while his storage belt continued to spew out more metal blocks.
"Metal, gather within me!"
"Weapon Reconfiguration! Thirty-Two Ballistics!"
The metal floating beside Xiao Hongchen quickly approached his body and was absorbed into him like water.
Golden liquid metal rapidly secreted from Xiao Hongchen's body, deformed, and formed, while Xiao Hongchen himself transformed into a small golden giant.
A total of thirty-two cannon barrels were arranged on Xiao Hongchen's back, arms, and outer thighs.
A small meteor shower erupted, intercepting all of He Caitou's firepower in the air.
Huo Yuhao's eyes flashed with blue light, and the Tang Sect members who were being monitored by the shared mental probe could clearly see the glowing core array within Xiao Hongchen's body.
"My goodness, is this even human?" Xu Sanshi exclaimed in surprise. It was the first time he had ever seen someone stuff the core magic array into their own body.
"It seems this is Nanxiao's special training. If it were before, Xiao Hongchen would not have thought of developing this ability." Beibei quickly analyzed, and suddenly noticed that an ice mirror was unfolding under Meng Hongchen's feet.
"Yuhao!" The lightning on Beibei roared, and a large amount of lightning was unleashed.
Huo Yuhao instantly switched his martial soul, his eyes filled with ice blue, and a fierce chill erupted from his body, overwhelming Meng Hongchen's chill with overwhelming force.
After a brief moment of surprise, Xu Sanshi's fourth soul skill quietly flickered under the cover of the shield.
After Xiao Hongchen finished his attack, three floating cannons appeared behind him, and three weapon boxes appeared out of thin air and crashed heavily to the ground.
"Six-wheeled cannon!"
The metal tentacles instantly connected to the Three Talents Floating Cannon, and a metal helmet was generated.
"Huo Yuhao!!!!"
Xiao Hongchen generated thrusters on his back and, with the help of Lan Xiu's Nine Luminaries, bypassed Bei Bei and charged straight into Shrek's defenses.
