Chapter 255 Xu Tianran's Winning Over
Just as Huo Yuhao was racking his brains trying to figure it out, the two on the stage began their first clash.
Ye Nanxiao, wielding an ice blade, clashed head-on with Mika's thunderous greatsword.
Mika's eyes were filled with crimson, his muscles bulged, and he wielded the Thunder Greatsword. Each strike carried immense power, as if the sword could cleave Mount Hua in two.
Ye Nanxiao waved his arm, and a dense chill emanated from his ice blade. He stepped on ghostly shadows, his figure graceful and elegant, and each strike easily neutralized Mika's sword moves.
A cold mist spread out and quickly covered the entire arena.
The thick, cold fog gradually slowed Mika's movements.
Mika swung his sword at Ye Nanxiao again, but the latter easily deflected the attack with his ice blade. He then planted the Thunder Greatsword in the ground, took a deep breath, and reached for the necklace hanging around his neck with his left hand.
A burst of white light suddenly surged from the necklace, instantly enveloping Mika.
Ye Nanxiao slung the ice blade over his shoulder and looked at Mika with great interest.
He knew that Mika had not yet used his trump card. The circular core magic circle on the hilt of the Thunder Greatsword had not yet lit up, which meant that Mika had not yet used his full strength to fight him.
Mika's condition clearly indicates that he has reached the Soul Emperor realm through the use of a large amount of drugs and the enhancement techniques of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy. Ye Nanxiao had heard some information about this enhancement technique from Xiao Hongchen. This technique requires a lot of resources, so why push Mika onto the stage now? If Mika loses, wouldn't all the resources have been wasted?
Ye Nanxiao turned to look at the VIP seats. Were they sent by Xu Tianran?
Ever since he almost became Jing Hongchen's son-in-law, Xu Tianran has become very enthusiastic towards him.
Inside the specially made audience seats, Xu Tianran wore a wicked smile, his eyes filled with undisguised desire. The more information he gathered, the more interested he became in Ye Nanxiao.
Whether in terms of wisdom or martial prowess, Ye Nanxiao is a dragon among men of his generation. Most importantly, he not only possesses a top-tier martial soul, but also cultivates both the martial soul system and the soul guidance system at Shrek Academy, possessing unique innate advantages in both areas. If he grows up, he will surely become a national guardian Douluo-level figure.
If such a great talent can serve him, then Xu Tianran will surely become an emperor who unifies the continent and expands the territory!
Some ministers in the court were still dissatisfied with their previous behavior, believing that they were not qualified to be emperors on the throne and that even if they did, they would not be able to compare with the emperors of the past.
Not to mention that I am currently still a person with a defect!
Xu Tianran waved to a guard and said softly, "Tonight, prepare a grand feast."
The guard responded and quickly retreated.
Kong Deming looked at Ye Nanxiao on the arena, his eyes showing no emotion whatsoever.
When the light emanating from Mika faded, a heavy half-body armor covered Mika's upper body.
There was a notch in the center of the chest of the armor, which was exactly the same size and shape as the core magic circle at the hilt of the Thunder Greatsword.
Mika removed the core magic array from the sword hilt and installed it on his chest.
Writhing lightning snakes appeared on Mika's body, all the core magic arrays on the Thunder Greatsword lit up, and blinding lightning surrounded the Thunder Greatsword, transforming Mika into a huge ball of lightning.
"Ye Nanxiao, use your sword!" Mika shouted, wielding his Thunder Greatsword as he charged toward Ye Nanxiao.
The lightning emanating from Mika's body scorched and wrecked the arena floor, leaving behind deep footprints.
Off the field, Fan Yu had already stood up, his expression serious, and said, "This attack has unleashed the full power of that thunderous greatsword, equivalent to a full-force attack from an ordinary Soul Saint!"
Huo Yuhao's eyes flashed with golden light as his spiritual power spread out, and his spirit rings merged with the surrounding environment under the effect of simulated spirit skills.
From the perspective obtained through mental detection, Ye Nanxiao had no room to dodge Mika's attack and could only confront it head-on.
After the previous battle with Mika, Ye Nanxiao's expression turned serious. Although Mika's cultivation level was achieved through the accumulation of secret techniques and medicines, it was still at the Soul Emperor level. Combined with the effect of the seventh-level peak soul tool, the Thunder Giant Sword, Ye Nanxiao still found it somewhat troublesome.
Ye Nanxiao planted the ice blade in the ground, and a chilling aura gathered around him. A deep blue imperial sword gradually appeared in his right hand.
Gripping the Emperor Sword tightly, Ye Nanxiao slowly walked forward.
A strong gust of wind blew against Ye Nanxiao's clothes, and his neatly tied ponytail was blown open by the wind.
Mika held the Thunder Greatsword high, and when he saw the deep blue longsword in Ye Nanxiao's hand, a hint of pleasure flashed in his crimson eyes.
The Thunder Greatsword slashed down with immense force, thick lightning coiling around it, transforming into a lightning serpent.
A sharp glint flashed in Ye Nanxiao's eyes as he brandished the Emperor Sword, cleaving through the sky!
The two figures passed each other in an instant.
The audience erupted in uproar.
The crimson in Mika's eyes vanished, and he looked down at the frozen thunder sword before him.
The extreme cold of the Emperor Sword even froze the lightning snakes dancing on the Thunder Greatsword.
"I lost," Mika announced decisively.
"You didn't actually have to hold back," Mika said to Ye Nanxiao.
Ye Nanxiao shook his head slightly and said, "I didn't hold back. Everything that needed to be cut was cut."
Upon hearing this, Mika turned around, and with that movement, the half-body armor on Mika's body shattered into pieces.
"Even so, you couldn't withstand your sword strike? No wonder even Ma Rulong is wary of you, Ye Nanxiao," Mika sighed.
A thin layer of frost began to climb up Mika's body, turning him into an ice sculpture.
Seeing this, Jing Hongchen waved his hand and sent Mika off the stage.
Ye Nanxiao dispelled the Emperor Sword, picked up the Ice Blade from the ground, shouldered it, and said to Jing Hongchen with a smile, "Rare metal +1!"
Jing Hongchen's lips twitched, and he raised his right hand to announce, "Shrek Academy wins. Ten-minute break."
As soon as he finished speaking, the soul-guiding barrier opened, and Ye Nanxiao heard the praise from the audience.
In the VIP section, flames danced in Luanfeng's eyes, and a faint phoenix cry echoed within her body.
After a while, the flames in Luanfeng's eyes disappeared, and her gaze fixed on Ye Nanxiao, who was bargaining with Jing Hongchen. She said, "This sword, little guy, you held back. As expected of the ultimate ice."
Luanfeng's martial soul is a Fire Phoenix Sword, which has unique expertise in fire attribute and swordsmanship.
Ye Nanxiao was the ultimate ice, and among those present, she could most clearly feel the extremely cold and sharp sword intent emanating from Ye Nanxiao. When facing Mika's full-force attack, Ye Nanxiao was like a sword that was only one-fifth of its sheath drawn. With the leaked sword intent, he froze the thunderous greatsword in Mika's hand without harming Mika's life.
At this moment, Huo Feng understood the purpose of Xu Tianran's special invitation to her to watch the arena match.
Since Xu Tianran secretly took control of Mingdu, the Fire Phoenix Soul Mentor Group has also been brought under his control.
Having followed Xu Tianran for a while, Luanfeng understood Xu Tianran's habit: if ordinary recruitment failed when facing a genius, he would send someone to study the genius's fighting style and finally defeat him completely in the place where the genius was proud, thereby achieving the goal of subjugation.
As for Luanfeng herself, she was the one targeting Ye Nanxiao.
Luanfeng put aside her contempt and began to focus on watching Ye Nanxiao's match.
Ju Zi suddenly stood up, gave Xu Tianran a slight bow, and said, "Your Highness, Ju Zi needs to wash her hands."
Xu Tianran nodded slightly, his gaze indeed focused on Ye Nanxiao. He always felt that there was something about Ye Nanxiao that attracted him.
After bowing to Kong Deming and Ye Yulin again, Ju Zi quickly left the VIP audience seats.
As she walked through the deserted corridor, Orange quietly held a silencing bead in her hand.
After walking for a while, Ju Zi looked at the empty passage in front of her and said, "I suppose you understand the purpose of this competition."
A ripple suddenly appeared in the space in front of Orange, and then Little Leaf No. 2 appeared in Orange's line of sight with a blank expression.
Xiao Ye No. 2 nodded, and two silencing beads floated on Xiao Ye No. 2's shoulder.
"To make a long story short, your next opponents are a member of the royal family and a prisoner who came out of the palace dungeon. They want to see your full strength. The Crown Prince intends to recruit you to his side. Also watching are the Empire's two great Soul Masters. Be careful in the upcoming matches." After saying this, Orange took a few steps forward and reached out to nudge Little Leaf No. 2's face.
Touching Xiaoye No. 2's cool exterior, Ju Zi reached out and pinched it, muttering, "As expected, the clone is a block of ice, just like this face. But it looks much better when it's expressionless than when it's grinning."
Xiao Ye No. 2's gaze fell on Ju Zi. Her light gold royal palace dress accentuated her noble bearing, and a small earring with an orange pattern dangled from her earlobe, adding a touch of playful youthfulness to her elegant demeanor.
Xiao Ye No. 2 reached out and grabbed the hand that was moving around on her face, then reached out and stroked Ju Zi's ear, leaning closer to take a closer look at the earring.
Orange turned her head slightly away, a blush rising on her face, and her ears were instantly covered with a layer of red, making her look very cute with her fair skin and rosy cheeks.
"Understood." After saying that, Xiao Ye No. 2 released the orange, turned around, and disappeared into thin air.
"It seems that the personality of the fox's clone reflects that of the fox's original body. So what does this clone reflect? The aspects that the fox hides?" Orange touched her earring. Usually, Orange would go to the laboratory to catch up on sleep without dressing up after getting up because she was too lazy to do so. Today, as the Crown Princess, she dressed up a little to watch the game.
After staring at the direction where Xiao Ye No. 2 disappeared for a few moments, Ju Zi checked her surroundings and, after confirming that no one was around, turned and left.
Little Ye No. 2 transformed into snowflakes and drifted back into Ye Nanxiao's body. Ye Nanxiao, carrying the ice blade, glanced at the VIP audience seats and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
"I found a prisoner to confront me. It seems I was right. There are still quite a few talented people in the dungeons of the Sun and Moon Palace who haven't been dealt with by Xu Tianran."
