Chapter 1516: Instant Victory
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
As Ai Fei was being dumbfounded by the situation, Tang Wulin’s palm had already come into contact with the North Tip Saber.
The power produced from the instant collision was hard to describe with words. Firstly, the audience members saw broken pieces. Those broken pieces were the black color emitted from the North Tip. When Tang Wulin’s right hand grabbed the North Tip Saber’s blade, it felt as if the air had turned into a spiderweb. Black streams dispersed and scattered before the saber and hand were linked together.
A hint of purple lingered in Tang Wulin’s eyes. He shouted coldly, and a ball of blue-purple lightning exploded with a loud boom from the center of his right palm like a thunderbolt out of a clear sky.
Mu Tian’s reaction was also relatively quick. He did not let the fact that Tang Wulin was capable of grabbing his North Tip Saber faze him, and he instantly retracted his martial soul. It vanished from Tang Wulin’s hand and evaded the explosive lightning. Meanwhile, he began to rapidly spin his body. Countless sabers shot out as he was spun around, heading toward Tang Wulin.
Just then, the lightning struck with a loud explosion. The saber tips were blown away by the intense blast. There was no way Mu Tian could approach Tang Wulin. Tang Wulin had still not landed on the ground as he rapidly dashed to the side. Something tremendously fearsome was happening.
In the blink of an eye, three Tang Wulins suddenly appeared in midair and got into a triangle formation. Even more terrifying was that at the three points of the triangle, every copy of Tang Wulin jutted his right hand forth and conjured countless lightning bolts. They shot out from their palms and formed a large net in the sky. There was no way to tell which direction the lightning was aiming at, but Mu Tian was positioned right at the core area of the triangle!
“That is Gu Yuena’s Lightning Triangular Shift!” Ai Fei cried out aloud once again. He was aware of the mecha-shifting move created by Tang Wulin during the test period, of course. Moreover, it was a movement that was already recognized by the Mecha Master’s Association and had officially became one of the mecha movements. The Mecha Master’s Association had also analyzed how difficult launching this maneuver would be for a mecha master in detail. The most harrowing part of this technique was that the mecha master would need to withstand a powerful impact for a split second while simultaneously operating the mechs with the utmost precision.
Tang Wulin launched the movement at this exact moment by relying on his body, not using a mecha or any mecha-operating skills. It was difficult to tell which was more difficult, but the speed Tang Wulin had required in order to complete such a movement and attack swiftly was shocking.
Mu Tian’s body landed on the ground abruptly. A stream of saber tips swept across the sky and dashed into the clouds instantaneously. It felt as if his entire person had already disappeared and completed fused into the saber.
It was the North Tip Saber and the Saber Tip Tremors The World!
The gruesome metallic stench of blood burst forth. As the lightning bolts struck, the saber tip suddenly spread outward and pushed them away. The glow of the saber tip and lightning reflected one another in the sky.
All three of the Tang Wulin’s silhouettes had only lasted for a moment before he merged back into one. He then braced himself and collided with the saber tip.
Ai Fei wondered to himself. ‘Why is Yu Longyue always fighting as if he is seeking his own doom? But the result is always so unusually effective.’
Even though both of them had just engaged in the fight by exchanging two moves, but one could tell that Yu Longyue clearly had the upper hand. It was already obvious when Mu Tian’s saber strike was neutralized by Yu Longyue.
“Boom!”
The saber turned around horizontally and blocked Tang Wulin’s body while Tang Wulin exploded at the moment of impact like a cannonball.
“Rumble!” The blue-purple thunder ball exploded loudly in the sky. The saber’s silhouette was blasted away at the sound and landed far into the distance. It was Mu Tian.
His entire body appeared to be charred black. Moreover, streams of electric radiance shimmered on his skin. It was apparent that he was affected by the thunderclap and lightning.
Tang Wulin did not pursue or attack anymore. He landed on the ground and spoke toward Mu Tian indifferently, “Battle armor.”
Mu Tian was sparing no effort in mobilizing his soul power. His soul power was famous for its sharpness and explosive force, but the lightning that seeped into his body was so powerful that his muscles and even his soul core were convulsing continuously.
It was very apparent that he would have already lost if Tang Wulin had continued his attacks.
Before this battle, Mu Tian’s valuation of Tang Wulin was already very high. However, only after actually fighting him did he come to realise that he had still underestimated this opponent.
Tang Wulin had surpassed him in every area, whether it was his strength, speed, martial soul or whatever else. Tang Wulin’s seemingly crude combat method was a representation of his absolute confidence.
Tang Wulin was feeling very satisfied with himself. After he began to understand the Dragon Emperor Forbidden Law, he found that he had a much more his control over many of his body’s abilities.
It was especially clear during the fusion of his spirit souls.
Tang Wulin had once investigated this matter with the Amorous Douluo. Why was it that elite soul masters would almost never unleash their spirit souls in combat? It was because no matter how powerful a spirit soul’s fighting capabilities were, the amplification effect was not as effective as when it directly supplemented the soul master.
Tang Wulin borrowed some of the Overlord Dragon’s strength during the collision earlier while the Thunderclap Nether Vine’s lightning had been coiling around his body. Nothing would be better suited for concealing his real martial soul than the Thunderclap Nether Vine.
The opponent was genuinely very powerful, but he was still not on par with Tang Wulin. Let alone an eight-ringed Soul Douluo, even a Title Douluo that had yet to become a Hyper Douluo would find it very difficult to give Tang Wulin any trouble.
Tang Wulin was capable of fighting against an entire empire by himself, and he was the man that shocked the Star Luo Empire In the Battle of Five Gods!
Mu Tian’s abilities were genuinely formidable, but it was still not on the same level as Tang Wulin after all. Had it not been for his respect for a soldier, Tang Wulin would not be using this battle method anymore!
Mu Tian panted for breath loudly then he took a deep glance at Tang Wulin. “Mecha, please guide me.”
As he spoke, a flash of black radiance came out of his hand. The stream of light grew larger as it projected outward. A pitch black mecha about seven meters in height appeared behind Mu Tian. Instantly, a black light guided his body into the mecha. The cabin door closed as he completed the docking process.
Mecha?
Tang Wulin had just remembered that Joust For A Spouse Festival did not prohibit the usage of mechas. ‘This is rather interesting. So, mecha it is then!’
The mecha seemed to have come alive after Mu Ye entered its cabin. It abruptly dove toward Tang Wulin, wielding a giant saber. It turned into incandescence color in a split second just like the North Tip Saber had done earlier. However, its power was elevated more than twice over due to the fusion of the soul master and the mecha.
Tang Wulin stamped his left foot against the ground and leaped up. His entire body was covered in scales instantaneously. It was the Golden Dragon Body. Of course, it was a lightning version as well.
“He’s still fighting with such ruthless, tyrannical style!” Ai Fei could not help feeling like covering his eyes as he watched Tang Wulin rising into the sky. Tang Wulin was obviously relying purley on his abilities to dominate. There did seem to be a genuine disparity between Mu Ye and Yu Longyue’s abilities.
Nevertheless, Yu Longyue was still sickly a few days prior, and he had even vomited blood once. Who was the person capable of injuring him so severely? Did that mean that Yu Longyue at his peak would be terrifying?
The answer was certainly yes! Yu Longyue at his best was truly this fearsome!
He did not dodge, evade nor use any skills, but instead, he chose to confront strength with strength.
This time, Tang Wulin finally made a bolder maneveur. His entire person seemed to posing as if he was drawing a bowstring. His arms were raised as he lashed at the giant saber that came slicing toward him.
“Boom!”
The arena had clearly dimmed for a moment. Then, a piercing stream of blue-purple flashed across the sky as if a lightning storm had appeared above the competition stage.
Then, the audience members watched in bewilderment as the gigantic black mecha braced itself against the electric power. It was thrown horizontally and ferociously collided with the protective shield. It then bounced back and landed on the ground.
The entire arena was deadly silent!
Tang Wulin’s right arm was completely blue and purple. The color seemed to be translucent. As he floated in midair, he looked like a Thunder God descending.
The competition had ended!
Ai Fei gulped and said with a little difficulty, “The match has ended. Contestant Yu Longyue has achieved victory in the second round of the round-robin once again. If I have to describe this match, even though I am reluctant and my saying so doesn’t signify any lack of respect for Contestant Mu Tian, I must say that what I saw was total suppression by force!
Yes, those were precisely the words to describe it! From the beginning to the end, Mu Tian did not stand a chance at all. It was total dominance in the three categories of speed, strength and attributes which charged head-on and brought about this outcome. Even after Mu Tian had unleashed his mecha, he had not managed to change the final result.
A match that could only be described as total suppression by force was truly shocking for everyone!
Tang Wulin landed on the ground slowly. He raised his right hand high into the air and stretched out his index finger in a manner that made him appear to have supremacy over all.
In the distance, Gu Yuena felt her chest tremble upon witnessing the scene on the main platform. On the other hand, Qiangu Zhangting, who was watching the scene from the edge of the competition arena, could not remain composed anymore.
