198, Fixed Soul Cannonball? Technology on par with the gods? Hehe [First More]_1

Having stepped through the door, Jing Hongchen lowered the light Shield in his hand, and surveyed the environment around him.

Observing the style of the surrounding buildings, the furnishings, and the attire of everyone, he became even more certain that this was indeed ten thousand years in the past, and specifically, the Douluo Continent of ten thousand years ago!

It was at this moment that a scene not far off caught his attention.

The Six-winged Angel Statue, perched at the highest point of the Martial Soul Hall, was splendid and captivating.

The existence of Martial Soul Hall, even after ten thousand years, even on a different continent, was still deeply entrenched in everyone's consciousness.

Seeing Martial Soul Hall meant there was no need for further explanation.

This door actually led to the world of ten thousand years ago!

However, these people clearly knew I was a person from ten thousand years later and knew that soul technology would be highly developed, yet they still remained so self-assured and arrogant.

Were the people from ten thousand years ago all like this?

Or should I say, were all the people on the Douluo Continent from ten thousand years ago such arrogant creatures?

Poor and harsh conditions breed troublesome people, I guess that's what this means.

Jing Hongchen snorted coldly, lifting up his latest invention that he took the most pride in.

Could that nameless brat across from me compare to the cutting-edge development level of the entire Sun-Moon Empire? What a joke!

Although Lin Yi had barely spoken, Jing Hongchen felt as though, through the words of Chrysanthemum Douluo and others, a silent competition had begun between them.

"Haven't seen this technology before, have you? Confused, huh? You antiquities from the Douluo Continent, you will regret your recent arrogant statements!"

Jing Hongchen's gaze swept over the crowd of Soul City, lingering on Lin Yi for several seconds.

Heh, this brat doesn't even dare to speak.

Lin Yi indeed remained silent behind them.

"Why do I feel that there is even more arrogance in your words?"

Bi Bidong stared coldly at Jing Hongchen.

The latter laughed out loud, and mockingly said to Bi Bidong,

"Esteemed Bi Bidong from the annals of history, there's a difference between my confidence and your arrogance. My confidence comes from strength, while your arrogance stems from ignorance."

"You revere that kid so much; around here, such behavior is no different from being bewitched like an evil Soul Master."

"You!"

Bi Bidong was fuming with rage and was about to stride forward to give Jing Hongchen a good thrashing, but was held back by Thousand Waves.

"Don't be impulsive. Violence won't solve the problem. We need to bring out something truly significant to bolster Senior Lin Yi's position."

Thousand Waves quietly said this to Bi Bidong and then slowly walked towards Jing Hongchen.

People from ten thousand years later are indeed arrogant. What if technology is advanced? Have you ever encountered a God?

Without a good face-slapping, you will never realize the power that Lin Yi possesses, one that transcends any concept you know of.

"Young man, you are very confident in your Shield, aren't you?"

Thousand Waves said with a faint smile.

"Of course, this is a rare level-ten soul tool I've replicated. Do you know how powerful the genuine level-ten soul tool, the Silver Moonlight Shield, is? It's capable of withstanding attacks from an Ultimate Douluo!"

"Pfft!"

Chrysanthemum Douluo burst into laughter upon hearing this.

Qian Renxue and Bi Bidong also couldn't help but giggle.

This Jing Hongchen really doesn't know who Thousand Waves is!

Damn it, who is the ignorant one? Do you not realize that the person standing in front of you is an Ultimate Douluo?

But, after being "modified" by Senior Lin Yi, Thousand Waves was no longer a mere Ultimate Douluo.

Thousand Waves lifted the corner of his mouth, "It does sound impressive, youngster. I also have a Shield gifted to me by Senior Lin Yi. How about we compare our Shields' defenses?"

Jing Hongchen's expression was brimming with confidence, and his eyes even carried a hint of mockery.

"Of course, let's refine the rules a bit. We'll each launch an attack against the other's Shield, so the effect will be more directly observable," Jing Hongchen suggested with a smile.

A metal shield from ten thousand years ago? Comparing it to a soul-guided high-tech shield from ten thousand years later?

Give me a break!

"Absolutely possible."

"Alright then, please show your shield, Senior. Let me first experience... just how powerful your ancient shield is!"

After their exchange, the surrounding crowd moved aside, clearing a spacious area for them.

The Hongchen Siblings, Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen, listened from behind the door, their blood boiling with excitement, completely forgetting the earlier cautions given by Jing Hongchen. They stealthily slipped out the door and blended into the crowd to watch the scene unfolding before them.

Seeing this, the vigilance of the others diminished significantly.

The world of ten thousand years ago seemed technologically backward, so what danger could there be?

Curious, they pressed forward to get a closer look, and several other students, including Ju Zi (Orange), slipped outside as well.

Jing Hongchen noticed this scene with a slightly displeased expression, but he did not interfere.

Well then, let these kids see for themselves how our Sun-Moon Empire's current level of technology absolutely crushes that of Soul Land from ten thousand years ago!

Thousand Waves retrieved a shield from his Storage Device at this moment.

Captain America's Shield.

Verified personally by a punch from Senior Lin Yi, no proof could be more convincing than this.

Opposite him, Jing Hongchen was startled.

He looked at the red and blue shield, imagining the crude shield these ancient people would bring forth, yet he never expected it to be this crude!

Is that all?

Jing Hongchen's smile at the corner of his mouth grew more brazen.

He directly took out a fixed soul cannonball!

Let's see how you show off now. After the cannonball is released, not only your shield but also you standing behind it will definitely not escape unscathed!

The rules didn't say anything about not getting hurt, right? Jing Hongchen laughed maniacally. Coming ten thousand years into the past to overpower someone was just too easy!

On seeing this, the people from Sun-Moon Royal Soul Master Academy could hardly bear to watch what was coming. The dean really went too far, bullying an ancient person like that?

But they couldn't deny that coming ten thousand years into the past to beat up the weak was indeed thrilling!

"Take this, Senior!"

Jing Hongchen said with a laugh, releasing his Soul Power, with his Nine Soul Rings rising around him in sequence.

The fixed soul cannonball, infused with Soul Power, glowed white at the central magic array, and with a "buzzing" sound, the dark hole in front of it turned red-hot, and "boom!", the soul cannonball was fired.

Thousand Waves took a deep breath and immediately positioned Captain America's Shield in front of himself.

"Boom—"

Flames burst forth on Captain America's Shield, and a vast plume of smoke scattered in all directions.

But after a short while, the arrogant smile on Jing Hongchen's face gradually stiffened.

He blinked in astonishment.

After that cannon shot, the person on the other side shouldn't be standing still in the same spot, unscathed!

Yet, as the smoke cleared, Thousand Waves was still standing firmly in place!

Apart from some slightly chipped paint on the shield, there was no damage to the shield, and moreover, he himself was completely unharmed!

This attack... how could it seem to have had no effect whatsoever??

The Hongchen Siblings, who were about to cheer in the crowd, froze in that posture...

All the students of Sun-Moon Royal Soul Master Academy were enveloped in an atmosphere of silence.

Thousand Waves slowly lowered his shield, a triumphant smirk on his lips.

Items gifted by Senior Lin Yi, how dare you doubt them?

"Junior, isn't it my turn to try out your shield now?"

"Let me tell you, I am an Ultimate Douluo, but I won't bully you by using an attack at the level of an Ultimate Douluo against your shield. Instead, I will again use something that Senior Lin Yi gifted to me, to strike at your shield!"
