Douluo: Wuhun Qimen Formation, control everything!

Chapter 126 Battle
"Let's go, I'm also quite interested in this Zhou Xuan." Xiao Hongchen and the other person headed towards the Soul Guidance Academy.

When Fan Yu took them on a tour of the Soul Guidance Academy, he told them that Zhou Xuan was in the academy's laboratory.

So they know the way.

The two arrived at the entrance of Zhou Xuan's laboratory, and Meng Hongchen knocked on the iron gate somewhat anxiously.

The door opened quickly, and an impatient voice reached their ears.

"Who is it? Knock knock knock! Are you trying to kill me?!" A disheveled boy walked out with an angry look on his face.

In fact, I don’t blame him.

People who frequently stay up late know that they get very irritable when they do.

Not to mention he was working late into the night, which made his temper even worse.

Meng Hongchen was immediately displeased with this attitude: "What kind of attitude is this? It's just knocking on the door, why are you acting like this?"

The boy, too lazy to argue with her, asked impatiently, "Do you have something to say? If you don't, don't bother others. I think you should also be students of the Soul Guidance Department, otherwise you wouldn't be here. Don't you know it's impolite to disturb people's research on Soul Guidance Devices?"

Meng Hongchen wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Xiao Hongchen beside her.

"We've come to find Zhou Xuan. Is he here?" Xiao Hongchen asked with a faint smile.

"Senior Brother Zhou? What do you want with him?" Upon hearing that he was looking for Zhou Xuan, his attitude visibly improved.

He still respected Zhou Xuan, and when he thought that the visitor might be Zhou Xuan's friend, he naturally extended his affection to Zhou Xuan and his attitude improved considerably.

"Just call him for me."

The latter nodded: "Okay, you wait."

He then turned around and called out to Zhou Xuan, "Senior Brother Zhou, someone is looking for you!"

Zhou Xuan had already heard the commotion at the door and, upon hearing that someone was looking for him, had already put down what he was doing.

"But this voice doesn't sound very familiar."

He rubbed his slightly sore neck, got up, and walked towards the door.

She patted the boy on the shoulder: "Go do your work, I'll take care of the rest."

The boy responded and quickly ran back to his workbench. He hadn't finished what he was doing, which was why he was so angry earlier.

Zhou Xuan then noticed the two people outside the door.

"Laughing at the mortal world? Dreaming of the mortal world?" He said the voice sounded somewhat unfamiliar. "What do you want with me?"

Zhou Xuan was quite surprised that the two of them came to find him.

After all, the three of them had only crossed paths briefly during the Soul Master Competition, and were practically unrelated.

"Zhou Xuan, let's have a fight!" Meng Hongchen stepped forward and said directly.

Zhou Xuan looked her up and down: "You? Didn't I just beat you up in the competition? You want to get beaten up again so soon?"

"You! I underestimated you. Let's fight again, and I definitely won't lose to you!"

"Ha~"

This laugh made Meng Hongchen even more agitated: "What do you mean by laughing? You don't think I can't beat you, do you?"

Zhou Xuan shook his head: "Think what you want, I don't want to fight."

Right now, all he wants to do is get the soul-guided computer sorted out. As for other things, they have to be put on hold for now. After all, Moon has only given him a year. The soul-guided phone is okay, but it's not enough!
Once the Soul Guidance Computer is successfully developed, I will definitely have a greater say in the Soul Guidance Academy, and then all the ideas in my mind will be able to be implemented.

After saying that, Zhou Xuan turned to leave.

However, Meng Hongchen wouldn't agree, grabbing his hand: "No! You have to fight me!"

Zhou Xuan glanced at Meng Hongchen, who was holding his hand, then looked at Xiao Hongchen: "Is this the upbringing of you Sun Moon Sect members?"

Although Xiao Hongchen knew that her younger sister's actions were somewhat inappropriate while they were away from home, she couldn't help it since they were family.

"Zhou Xuan, it's just a fight, it shouldn't be a difficult task for you, right? Consider it fulfilling my sister's wish?"

"I'm not his brother, I have no obligation to do so!" Zhou Xuan shook off Meng Hongchen and turned to leave.

But unexpectedly, Meng Hongchen captured him again.

"No! You have to fight me today!" Meng Hongchen gripped Zhou Xuan's sleeve tightly.

Zhou Xuan shook his hand, but found that he couldn't shake it off.

Even a clay figure has some temper, let alone Zhou Xuan.

"What exactly do you want to do!" Zhou Xuan glared at Meng Hongchen and asked, enunciating each word clearly.

"I want to fight you!"

"Then let me tell you! I don't want to!"

Zhou Xuan is the kind of person who responds better to gentle persuasion than force; the more you ask him to do something, the less he wants to do it.

If Meng Hongchen and the others had asked him politely, he might have agreed after two or three questions, but this attitude...

He could only say it was impossible!
Xiao Hongchen smiled faintly: "Brother Zhou, I see you're researching soul tools, right? How about this, a ton of rare metal unique to the Sun Moon Empire, for a fight with my sister?"

He still doesn't know that the decision to buy the soul beast embryo wasn't actually made by Shrek Academy, but rather by Zhou Xuan alone.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have made this request.

While some rare metals unique to the Sun Moon Empire are indeed valuable, as the saying goes, with enough money, there are very few things in this world that you can't buy.

Although these rare metals are precious, they are definitely not included in this category. Given Zhou Xuan's wealth, he could buy a mere ton without even blinking an eye if he wanted to.

"One ton? As expected of the Crown Prince of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy, he's incredibly generous."

Xiao Hongchen nodded, not denying it: "So, Brother Zhou, you've agreed?"

"You're overthinking it. It's just a ton of rare metals. Do you think I can't afford it? Or are you saying your sister is only worth a ton of rare metals?"

Meng Hongchen shouted angrily, "Who are you talking about?!"

"I'm talking to you! You think the whole world should revolve around you? You think you can do whatever you want? You think this is the Sun Moon Empire? Sorry! Let me tell you, this is Shrek Academy. Even if you're a dragon, you'd have to kneel down before me!"

Then, Zhou Xuan's soul power surged, and he suddenly flicked his hand, transforming it into tangible spiritual power that struck the two of them.

The two men's expressions changed slightly, and they raised their hands to defend themselves.

Taking advantage of the break, Zhou Xuan went straight back to the laboratory.

"boom!"

The door was closed, and by the time the two siblings tried to open it, it was too late.

The laboratory door was extremely sturdy. Not only would they not dare to make a move at Shrek Academy, but even if they were allowed to, a mere Soul King would absolutely not be able to force the door open.

Inside the lab, Zhou Xuan snorted coldly, "You really think I'm easy to bully? Keep working! And remember, don't open the door to just anyone in the future!"

After saying that, he returned to his seat and continued working. Outside the door, Meng Hongchen, angered by Zhou Xuan's reprimand, wore a furious expression.

Although Xiao Hongchen was also a little angry, after all, she was his own sister, from Zhou Xuan's perspective, what he said was not wrong.

He glanced at his sister, whose face was full of anger, and shook his head helplessly.

"If he doesn't want to fight, then let's go."

Meng Hongchen shook her head violently: "No! I must make him fight me! There must be a way. I refuse to believe there's nothing he doesn't care about!"

Xiao Hongchen felt somewhat helpless, thinking that his younger sister had been blinded by love.

"What do you want to do? This is Shrek Academy after all, and Zhou Xuan's status here is not low. There's really no need for us to do this."

Meng Hongchen stamped her foot: "Brother! When did you become so timid and submissive!"

He gave a bitter laugh at the world's troubles.

Do I have one? Maybe.

Since losing the game, he has talked with Ma Rulong and understood the responsibilities of a captain, so he is not as flamboyant as before, which can be said to be a sign of maturity.

That's how men are; perhaps at some point, they will suddenly transform.

Looking at her sister's expression, Xiao Hongchen had a vague idea that she must have come up with something again.

"Speak, what do you want to do now?" Xiao Hongchen doted on Meng Hongchen to the point of spoiling her. "Let's talk this out first. If this doesn't work out, you'll have to listen to me and focus on your training at Shrek Academy!"

"Hmph! It's a deal then. I don't believe Zhou Xuan can hold back this time!" Meng Hongchen crossed her arms and smiled smugly.

"Here's my plan," she said, outlining the outline of her plan.

"Jiang Nannan? What are you going to see her for?" Xiao Hongchen didn't know the relationship between Zhou Xuan and Jiang Nannan.

"Brother, you don't know this, do you? I could tell from the competition that the relationship between these two is definitely not ordinary."
I came to Shrek Academy these past couple of days to ask around, and sure enough, they are a couple, and their relationship is very good.

Xiao Hongchen raised her hand, interrupting her: "Wait a minute, how did you figure that out? I didn't see it. Besides, weren't you with me the whole time? When did you find out?"

Meng Hongchen smiled smugly: "Hmph, that's why you haven't found a girlfriend yet, but none of that matters!"

The important thing is, since Zhou Xuan doesn't want to fight me, I'll force him to. I refuse to believe that, given his personality, he'd just watch his girlfriend get bullied.

"Are you so sure that Jiang Nannan is no match for you? If I remember correctly, she is also a Soul King, right? And her fourth soul ring is a ten-thousand-year soul ring."

"Brother, whose side are you on? Your sister is just as good, okay? Besides, you're here for me. Give me a few soul tools, and it'll be a piece of cake to hurt her, right?"

Xiao Hongchen's expression was somewhat complicated: "Have you really offended Zhou Xuan to the point of no return?"

"What's there to be afraid of? We are people of the Sun Moon Empire. They wouldn't dare to do anything to us," Meng Hongchen said with her head held high.

"You, you." But what my sister said wasn't wrong; they came from the sun and the moon!
In the early morning, it was just dawn.

The two siblings, Hongchen and his sister, were squatting by a path.

"Little sister, will Jiang Nannan really appear?" Xiao Hongchen patted the willow catkins off her head and yawned.

"I've heard that Jiang Nannan brings Zhou Xuan food every morning."
Moreover, Jiang Nannan is already an inner court disciple, and the journey from Seagod Island to the Soul Guidance Academy is drawing ever closer.
"We'll definitely catch her, don't worry!" Meng Hongchen nodded, looking confident.

Sure enough, after waiting for a long time, when the sun was fully up, Jiang Nannan walked briskly towards the Soul Guidance Academy, humming a little tune.

When Meng Hongchen saw the person approaching, her eyes lit up, and she patted Xiao Hongchen beside her: "Look! What did I tell you? The person is here! Let's go!"

As she spoke, she pulled Xiao Hongchen along and quickly walked to Jiang Nannan.

"Are you Jiang Nannan?"

Jiang Nannan stopped in her tracks: "You're from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy?"

All she knew was that the Soul Guidance Academy had indeed recently had an exchange program with the Sun Moon Academy, because Huo Yuhao had said goodbye to her when he left.

I never expected that it would be these two who would come.

"What's the matter with you?"

"I am Meng Hongchen, and this is my brother, Xiao Hongchen," Meng Hongchen said directly. "I would like to challenge you to a match. I wonder if you dare to accept?"

Jiang Nannan raised the lunchbox in her hand and politely declined, saying, "I'm sorry, I have something to do right now. Let's talk about it next time."

"Hmph! I didn't expect that all of you Shrek Academy students would prefer to avoid battle. Zhou Xuan is a coward, and I didn't expect that you, as his girlfriend, would be the same way?"

Jiang Nannan's expression turned slightly cold: "You'd better take back what you said!"

"Am I wrong? Shrek Academy is supposed to be the number one academy in the world, yet you don't even dare to accept a single challenge."

Jiang Nannan's expression had completely lost its previous gentleness: "Time! Place! I will definitely be there on time!"

She knew, of course, that this was a provocation, but since Zhou Xuan had been mentioned, she couldn't remain calm.

Meng Hongchen smirked – she'd been tricked!
"Alright! Tomorrow morning at nine o'clock, Shrek Academy's Soul Battle Zone, how about it?"

"it is good!"

After saying that, Jiang Nannan turned around and left.

Meng Hongchen crossed her arms: "What did I tell you? This will definitely work!"

"Sigh~" Xiao Hongchen sighed.

Although he didn't know what kind of personality Jiang Nannan had, he could roughly tell what kind of personality Zhou Xuan had.

Since this happened at Shrek Academy, it absolutely could not escape Zhou Xuan's eyes.

He could foresee Zhou Xuan's reaction at that time, and he would likely be met with his wrath. In addition, this was Shrek Academy, so it probably wouldn't end well.

However, he glanced at Meng Hongchen, smiled, and shook his head.

"Because she's my sister."

Meanwhile, Jiang Nannan had arrived at the entrance of Zhou Xuan's laboratory. After skillfully manipulating the door, it opened.

"Good morning, senior." Several students who hadn't rested yet greeted her one after another.

"Good morning." Jiang Nannan smiled and nodded in response.

Zhou Xuan was resting on the table when Jiang Nannan walked softly to his side and patted his back: "Zhou Xuan, it's time to eat."

"Nannan, you're here?" Zhou Xuan opened his eyes while lying on the table, looking at Jiang Nannan with a smile in his eyes. He reached out and grabbed her hand, placing it on his face.

Jiang Nannan's face flushed slightly, but she didn't stop her: "There are so many people here, let's eat something first."

"It's alright, we're all family, there's nothing to be embarrassed about." Zhou Xuan said, opening the lunchbox and taking a deep breath.

"It's so fragrant!"

The students around him looked on with envy.

Zhou Xuan's lips curled into a smile: "Want some? Go ask your own partners!"
