Chapter 20 A Slap in the Face Problem_1

Evil Moon looked at Xu Sheng with a hint of surprise; he had thought the latter would decisively refuse.

After all, a support-class Soul Master facing an assault-type Soul Master basically had no chance of winning.

Moreover, Flame was a Soul Master with two Centennial Soul Rings!

In terms of pure offensive power, he had even surpassed himself!

Seeing that the situation was no longer under her control, Hulena sighed helplessly, with a pleading tone, "Xu Sheng, please be gentle, Flame is also our teammate..."

Xu Sheng looked at the worried Hulena and smiled warmly, "Don't worry, we are all one team. I will give him some face."

The current Hulena really did care about others. If it weren't for her Martial Soul, she probably wouldn't be much inferior to Qian Renxue in temperament.

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you," Hulena said, her innocent gaze falling deeply on Flame as she nodded slightly and retired next to Evil Moon.

Little did she know, Evil Moon had clearly seen this scene, and a few traces of confusion appeared in his eyes. He glanced at his sister, Hulena, then propped his chin and pondered, "What's going on? Lena couldn't possibly be unaware of the outcome of a duel between an assault-type Soul Master and a support-class Soul Master, so why ask Xu Sheng to go easy? ..."

His sister wouldn't be joking in this kind of situation, which meant even she thought Flame was no match for Xu Sheng...

This guy called Xu Sheng really exuded an air of mystery...

However, since Hulena hadn't lowered her voice, every word had reached Flame's ears...

These words stabbed into his heart like a knife...

Could it be that in Hulena's eyes, his combat strength was not even comparable to that of a support-class Soul Master?

He glared furiously at Xu Sheng, his gaze as if he wanted to tear Xu Sheng to shreds the next moment!

He barked, "Stop the nonsense, kid! I won't go easy just because you are a support class!"

Xu Sheng's calm face showed no ripples as he harmlessly stretched out one hand and said indifferently, "Then let's begin..."

Seeing that Xu Sheng hadn't even released his Martial Soul, showing an obvious contempt for himself, Flame shouted coldly, "Hmph! You don't even release your Martial Soul, arrogance! Today, I will teach you a lesson! Flame Lord!"

As his words fell, a fearsome soul beast emerged behind him, filled with scorching flames—a Behemoth with two reddish horns on its head, arrogantly calling out...

Two yellow Soul Rings emerged from beneath his feet...

This aura made Xu Sheng turn solemn, "So this is the Flame Lord? It looks quite similar to the Groudon from before I went through time!"

Compared to Xu Sheng's careful observation, Flame had no interest in these thoughts; he only wanted to defeat Xu Sheng in one strike!

The first yellow Soul Ring at his feet lit up, "First Soul Skill! Behemoth Roar!"

Behemoth Roar: Capable of exerting some pressure on the opponent, effectively restricting their mobility!

As he spoke, the flame Behemoth behind Flame forcefully pounded its chest, sending sparks flying as something like a Shock Wave shot towards Xu Sheng at great speed...

After being touched by this Shock Wave, Xu Sheng looked down at his own legs, barely feeling a power of the earth quietly Binding his legs...

But unfortunately for Flame, with Ninetieth Level Soul Power, this soul skill was laughable to Xu Sheng!

The Binding effect of this soul skill on him was minimal!

...

Observing this, Evil Moon shook his head silently, somewhat disappointed by Xu Sheng's arrogant performance...

"It seems the battle is decided, even if I were hit with this move, my mobility would decrease by at least threefold! If Flame used his Second Soul Skill, Xu Sheng would have nowhere to retreat!"

Hulena smiled and turned to Evil Moon with a secretive smile, "Brother, maybe not. Xu Sheng is not as simple as you think..."

Evil Moon's eyes lit up with curiosity; his sister might know something...

Curious, he couldn't help but ask, "Oh? Lena? Do you know something? Tell me!"

Hulena, with a proud eyebrow twitch and a cute sticking out of her tongue, teased, "I just won't tell you~"

Evil Moon "..."

Why does my sister sometimes seem so mature and sometimes cute like a child...

Poor me, being her brother is really worrying.

...

Flame naturally saw the subtle movement in Xu Sheng's gaze downward and knew the latter had discovered the effect of this move!

He provocatively boasted with a smug face, "Xu Sheng, are you feeling like you can't even move an inch now?"

I thought this guy had something special, but who knew he was stupid enough to take my first soul skill head-on!

Then I need not hold back!

Xu Sheng, looking at Flame's smug, beatable face, was somewhat speechless, scratching his head lightly, not knowing how to respond to that question...

This "terrifying" binding effect could be as believable to Xu Sheng as being tied up by a rubber band around his ankles.

But then again, Hulena had just said not to crush the kid's confidence, so should I reluctantly agree with him?

Alright, for the sake of team camaraderie, I'll begrudgingly play along.

Xu Sheng replied softly, "Indeed, my legs do feel a lot heavier!"

Flame clenched his fists in anticipation, glancing at Hulena who was in the background.

However, all he got back from her was a pitiful look...

Who knew, with his unique way of thinking, Flame brushed off the sadness, his eyes brightening as he said, "Kid, see that? Lena's feeling sorry for you! Hahahahaha!"

His enthusiasm soaring, his expression gradually turned bizarre...

...

Hulena: "Brother, do you know what Flame is doing?"

Evil Moon shook his head in denial, "I have no idea, maybe he forgot to take his meds today!"

Hulena clasped her hands together, closed her eyes, and prayed in her heart, "I hope he doesn't give up on his treatment..."

...

Flame: "The moment you were bound by my soul skill, you were already defeated! Now, pay the price for your arrogance, Second Soul Skill! Mountain Fire Burst!"

High temperatures erupted from Flame's body, strands of immense flames igniting on his skin, and all the muscles on his body were covered in dense patterns, making him look extraordinarily tough!

The next second, his figure exploded with movement, charging at high speed towards Xu Sheng...

Suddenly, Evil Moon cried out in alarm, "Oh no! I forgot that Xu Sheng is a support-class Soul Master! This attack could break even his bones!"

Hearing this, Hulena, who was originally calm, couldn't help but become worried...

In a moment of urgency, she shouted loudly, "Xu Sheng, dodge quickly!"

But it was already too late; in an instant, Flame had appeared in front of Xu Sheng, and the next moment, he was about to hit Xu Sheng!

Caught off guard, Xu Sheng's pupils shrank, and he instinctively stretched out his palm, forcefully drawing back...

With a "boom," the room erupted with a sound that shattered heavens and earth...

Through the hazy dust, Flame's cheek sported a fiery slap mark, uncontrollably spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood, his vision narrowing more and more as he flew backward...

Flame's body slammed straight into the wall, leaving behind an indented crater!

In the following seconds, the enveloping dust and smoke slowly dissipated...

Xu Sheng looked at his slightly numb right hand with a complex expression, "I didn't accidentally kill him, did I?"

And speaking of which, that slap just now felt kind of refreshing?

No wonder Tang Hao likes to beat people up without using a Martial Soul, it feels great...
