Douluo Dragon King: Martial Soul Spring and Autumn Cicada, Lord of Time

Chapter 76 Gu Yue: Off hanging out with Senior Sister again? (Please subscribe)

"Huh, it's you!?"

They arrived at the arena.

Both Zhao Tao and their approaching opponent let out a soft sound in unison.

After all, Zhao Tao's opponent this time is none other than someone else.

It was Mu Xi, the daughter of his forging teacher Mu Chen and Zhao Tao's senior apprentice sister!

"Good morning, senior sister!"

"I regret to inform you... it seems your individual competition journey will end at the regional qualifying stage!"

Looking at Mu Xi in the distance, Zhao Tao smiled slightly and took the initiative to speak.

"Oh, little junior brother, are you really that confident?"

"Don't forget, I already broke through to the Soul Master level long ago!"

Hearing Zhao Tao's words, Mu Xi pursed her lips in surprise and asked in return.

"Of course! I, Zhao Tao, am going to be the champion of the junior group!"

Looking at Mu Xi in the distance, Zhao Tao smiled confidently.

"Alright, alright, then let your senior sister see the little champion's strength!"

Upon hearing this, Mu Xi nodded, eager to try.

"The match begins!"

Just as the two were exchanging words, the referee gave the order, and the match began!

And then the referee finished speaking.

Suddenly, a dazzling fireball burst forth above Mu Xi's head, just like the sun!

As the Martial Soul appeared, three Soul Rings—two yellow and one purple—slowly rose from beneath Mu Xi's feet.

This is Mu Xi's martial soul, Radiant Sun, an extremely powerful martial soul.

Mu Xi's ability to achieve more in forging than her peers is also inseparable from this martial soul.

Of course, besides assisting in forging, the Radiant Sun Martial Soul is also an excellent offensive Martial Soul.

This allowed Mu Xi to achieve a winning streak in the first five matches.

If she hadn't encountered Zhao Tao, she might have had a good chance of advancing to the main competition.

Just as Mu Xi released her martial spirit.

Zhao Tao had already released his Spring and Autumn Cicada Martial Soul, with two rings of spirit rings flashing in succession!

With a flash of silver light, Zhao Tao, wielding the Time Burial Sword, aimed straight at Mu Xi in the distance.

At the same time, the Spring and Autumn Cicada Martial Soul in his hand flapped its wings, and two waves of light enveloped himself and Mu Xi in the distance.

"What...what kind of soul skill is this?!"

"Could this be the reason why Junior Brother is so powerful?"

When Mu Xi was hit by the Fleeting Beauty Soul Skill, she immediately felt as if her timeline had been stretched out.

Every movement became incredibly slow.

Although she was incredibly surprised, Mu Xi had good combat experience and didn't just stand there dumbfounded. The second soul ring on her body flashed the next moment.

The Radiant Sun Martial Soul above her head suddenly bloomed, and an extremely hot circular ring of fire spread outwards from Mu Xi's body.

This is Mu Xi's second soul skill—the Fire Resistance Ring, a soul skill that leans towards defense.

Once activated, it can release a powerful fire ring almost instantly, repelling surrounding enemies and dealing a powerful blow.

For a fragile mage like Mu Xi, who relies on powerful fire elemental attacks for ranged attacks but has low defense and is quite vulnerable, this is definitely a good soul skill.

After all, this is definitely a powerful choice when dealing with close-range agility-based assassin-type Soul Masters, as it can catch the opponent off guard.

However, in Zhao Tao's view, such attacks were quite commonplace.

Silently channeling his soul power, Zhao Tao continuously spun the Time Burial Sword in his hand, creating a sword shield in mid-air, easily blocking the attack of the Resistance Fire Ring.

At that very moment, Zhao Tao had already reached Mu Xi's side!

"The sun shines brightly in three directions!"

Facing Zhao Tao's close approach, Mu Xi attempted a final struggle.

Her soul power surged wildly within her body, and the third purple soul ring on her body suddenly flashed.

The next moment, the blazing sun above Mu Xi's head suddenly split into three and began to bombard Zhao Tao's direction!

Unfortunately, at that very moment, Zhao Tao's Time Burial Sword was already resting on Mu Xi's shoulder.

"I lost!"

"Junior brother, your strength is indeed formidable; I am ashamed to admit my inferiority!"

Faced with the Time Burial Sword so close at hand, Mu Xi naturally understood that she had lost!

Looking at Zhao Tao in front of her, Mu Xi couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration!

It turned out that his junior brother not only surpassed him in forging.

Even in actual combat, despite being a Soul Master, he was still almost instantly killed by his junior brother.

Is his junior brother a human or a monster?

At this moment, a strong sense of powerlessness also arose in Mu Xi's heart!

"Senior sister, you don't need to belittle yourself. I'm not an ordinary person. Compared to me, you would definitely feel hopeless."

Upon hearing Mu Xi's words, Zhao Tao transformed into a warm-hearted man and began to comfort her.

"Ahem, if you have something to say, you can say it below the stage. The other contestants still have matches to continue!"

Just then, the referee coughed lightly, offering a reminder.

Upon hearing the referee's words, Zhao Tao and Mu Xi obediently stepped off the stage.

"Junior brother, don't worry, I won't underestimate myself. Compared to a monster like you, I wouldn't want to make a fool of myself!"

Stepping off the stage, Mu Xi looked at Zhao Tao in front of her and teased him.

"Haha, that's a wise choice!"

"And, senior sister, good luck in tomorrow's forging finals!"

Upon hearing Mu Xi's words, Zhao Tao scratched his head and then offered his blessings.

"Yes, I'll do my best, and so will you, junior brother!"

"I'll be attending all of your future competitions. I want to witness firsthand how my junior brother wins the championship step by step!"

With a smile and a nod, Mu Xi waved goodbye to Zhao Tao.

After bidding farewell to Mu Xi, Zhao Tao returned to Gu Yue's side.

"Wait...did you go and hang out with your senior sister Mu Xi again?"

"Why do I feel like you smell like her again?"

Just then, Gu Yue's nose twitched, and then she stood up, put her hands on her hips, and questioned him in a serious tone, her eyes becoming somewhat sharp.

"Wow, Gu Yue, your nose is so sensitive!"

"I did encounter Senior Sister Mu Xi just now, but I didn't hang out with her. I just happened to meet her as my opponent during the competition."

Seeing Gu Yue's puffed-up, somewhat jealous expression, Zhao Tao quickly took her hand and explained.

"Oh, I see. That makes more sense!"

Hearing Zhao Tao's words, Gu Yue nodded, her eyes softening again.

What a possessive little silver dragon...:

Looking at Gu Yue's somewhat intense reaction, Zhao Tao couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

I wonder what kind of sparks will fly between Na'er and Gu Yue when she arrives?

However, Na'er and Gu Yue are one, so Gu Yue probably won't be jealous when he sees Na'er being affectionate with him, right?

No way, no way, no one would be jealous of their own person, right?

As he thought about it, Zhao Tao gently stroked Gu Yue's delicate little hand, waiting for the next match to begin.
