Chapter 478 Laughing at the Mortal World: Nanxiao is my half-master!

"Ahem, well, I think my feelings are still very important." Xiao Hongchen weakly raised his hand.

Although her brother's position was not as secure as she had imagined, she still wanted to fight for it.

"Hehe, just kidding." Meng Hongchen waved her hand and said with a smile.

"Xiao Hongchen, you came to me just to spar, right? Then let's start now. The sooner we finish, the sooner we can leave," Huo Yuhao said coldly.

Although Meng Hongchen said things like it was a joke, Huo Yuhao always felt that she wasn't joking.

Huo Yuhao's words resonated with Xiao Hongchen, who quickly ran to activate the battle arena.

Meng Hongchen smiled, turned around and walked to Jing Hongchen's side, took a cup of black tea prepared by Jing Hongchen, and sat quietly in the chair.

In the arena, Xiao Hongchen stretched his wrists and said to Huo Yuhao, "This time, I'll show you the results of all that training at Shrek Academy! I've reached a higher level!"

Huo Yuhao also stretched his body and beckoned to Xiao Hongchen, "Come on, let me see."

The combat simulation room in Mingde Hall was the same size as the venue for the official competition, with a semi-circular soul-guided protective shield rising up to cover the area.

Huo Yuhao and Xiao Hongchen both revealed their spirit rings immediately, but neither of them moved.

"What are you waiting for?" Huo Yuhao asked.

"You make the first move. This is my home turf." Xiao Hongchen crossed his arms, looking cool.

Without hesitation, Huo Yuhao's eyes flashed with golden light, his figure blurred for a moment, and he rushed towards Xiao Hongchen.

An invisible spiritual fluctuation surged forth, heading straight for Xiao Hongchen.

Steam rose from Xiao Hongchen's body, and his wrists gleamed with a metallic sheen.

Rows of metal blocks flew out from Xiao Hongchen's storage soul tool at his waist.

Having already taken precautions, the metal blocks instantly combined to form a shield, emitting a faint blue light.

The mental shockwave struck the metal shield, sending it flying.

Huo Yuhao noticed that the two metal bracelets on Xiao Hongchen's wrists were rapidly deforming.

Knowing that Xiao Hongchen could control metal, Huo Yuhao reached for his waist with his left hand and flung out a short wooden spear.

Xiao Hongchen swiftly controlled the metal ring on his wrist, melting it into liquid metal. He then plunged his left hand into the liquid metal and shouted, "Condense!"

The liquid metal instantly clung to it, quickly solidified and deformed, and a soul-guided cannon appeared in Xiao Hongchen's left hand.

Huo Yuhao covered his hands with a layer of fine ice crystals, as if he were wearing two frost gauntlets.

Xiao Hongchen raised his left hand, quickly aimed at Huo Yuhao, and fired a soul-guided ray.

Facing the incoming soul-guided ray, Huo Yuhao neither dodged nor avoided it, but instead sprinted forward and accelerated.

Everything seemed to be slowed down in Huo Yuhao's eyes; the speed of the soul-guided ray was like a balloon slowly drifting by.

Huo Yuhao narrowed his eyes slightly, and a surge of spiritual energy erupted from him, followed by a right punch.

The thick ice crystals on his right fist reflected the light of the soul-guided ray.

The soul-guided ray that Xiao Hongchen had just unleashed was deflected by Huo Yuhao's punch.

"The Golden Fusion!"

Xiao Hongchen had no time to be surprised, because Huo Yuhao's second mental attack had already arrived.

The shield that was knocked away quickly dispersed and turned back into pieces of metal, flying back to Xiao Hongchen's side.

However, Xiao Hongchen's movements still carried a trace of force, and the mental impact caused him to groan and take a step back.

Huo Yuhao seized the opportunity and burst forth, a dense mist of cold air rapidly spreading from his body.

Xiao Hongchen forcefully swung the Soul Guidance Cannon in his left hand, causing the muzzle to deform and expand before slamming it into the ground.

An energy spread outwards.

Huo Yuhao was slightly surprised and quickly jumped up to avoid the energy impact that was close to the ground.

"Laughing in the Mortal World didn't suffer in vain at Shrek Academy!"

With a flick of his left hand, Huo Yuhao conjured a floating ice sheet out of thin air.

Through tireless hard work, Huo Yuhao's ability to control soul power has also improved day by day.

Using the floating ice as a springboard, a golden light flashed in Huo Yuhao's eyes, and he disappeared perfectly into the icy mist.

After a brief moment of distraction, Xiao Hongchen finally came to his senses.

A splitting headache prompted Xiao Hongchen to use the greatest achievement he had gained from his arduous training at Shrek Academy.

"Huo Yuhao! Let me show you the results of my cultivation over this period of time!" Xiao Hongchen couldn't help but curl up his lips.

Huo Yuhao, who was hiding in the icy mist, stopped moving. He also wanted to know what made Xiao Hongchen so confident that he would challenge him as soon as he returned.

Do you really think you can't improve?

Now that we have a clear understanding, we will have more information when formulating the Continental Soul Master Competition.

Xiao Hongchen will definitely be a key player in the next Sun and Moon team.

Huo Yuhao himself still has many trump cards he hasn't used yet.

The four spirit rings behind Xiao Hongchen lit up simultaneously.

The gold elements in the air seemed to boil, surging and frantically gathering towards Xiao Hongchen.

Among the three spectators, Jing Hongchen asked with some concern in a low voice, "Has Xiao'er already revealed the results of her hard work during this period?"

Meng Hongchen crossed her legs, elegantly swirling the teacup in her hand, and said, "Grandpa, don't worry. My brother is different now. He's more confident and stronger, and he's no longer blinded by the past."

"Oh! It seems Xiao'er has gained quite a lot! That's a good thing!" Jing Hongchen was very pleased.

"It's all thanks to Nanxiao. By the way, Grandpa, why haven't I seen Nanxiao?" Meng Hongchen seemed to remember something.

Jing Hongchen's smile froze instantly, and even Elder Xuan, who was watching from the corner, turned his gaze over.

"It seems that Jing Hongchen's grandsons know nothing at all," Elder Xuan thought to himself.

Jing Hongchen thought for a moment and said, "I don't know. I don't know where Nanxiao has gone to hide and do research again."

It's best not to know Xu Tianran's plans since her grandchildren have just returned.

"I see." Meng Hongchen nodded and continued watching the fight on the field.

At this moment, Xiao Hongchen had completed his preparations.

A floating cannon as wide as an adult appeared in front of Xiao Hongchen, surrounded by three auxiliary floating cannons that rotated around the main cannon.

Two enormous metal swords were connected to Xiao Hongchen's back by metal wires.

Strands of liquid metal emerged from behind Xiao Hongchen and connected to the floating cannons.

"The floating cannons are now assembled."

"Nanxiao is like a half-master to me. I was able to develop this move thanks to him."

A wisp of golden flame burned on Xiao Hongchen's body.

The Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion tattoo on Huo Yuhao's back seemed to come alive, its eyes filled with golden light.

The current Xiao Hongchen has given him an unexpected surprise.

Huo Yuhao landed lightly on the ground, straightened his back, took a deep breath, and concentrated all his energy.

Xiao Hongchen was determined to decide the victor in one move, so he couldn't afford to lose face.

His right fist gradually lit up, turning golden, as if it were cast from gold.

Huo Yuhao took a step forward, and his aura surged towards Xiao Hongchen like a tidal wave.

Sensing the aura emanating from a savage beast, Xiao Hongchen did not hesitate, igniting his soul power and launching an attack.

A beam of energy the size of a bucket was unleashed, accompanied by three slender soul-guiding rays.

Huo Yuhao's body beneath his robes radiated a green light, and a ring of white energy surged outwards.

Golden fist was raised, and his whole body was like a bullet fired from a gun.

Facing the energy beam, Huo Yuhao unleashed a powerful punch, gathering all his energy and spirit.

A golden fist shadow was unleashed by Huo Yuhao, colliding with the energy ray.

Jing Hongchen stood up instantly, rapidly channeling his soul power into the soul-guiding shield.

The golden fist shadow pierced straight through the energy beam with unstoppable force.

However, it had exhausted its energy and was cleaved in two by the two giant metal swords behind Xiao Hongchen.

Xiao Hongchen, panting heavily, looked at Huo Yuhao, who was still standing ramrod straight, and slowly raised his left hand.

"I give up. You're really strong!"

This time, Xiao Hongchen admitted it very readily.

During his time at Shrek Academy, he not only grew in terms of physical skills, but also in his inner self.

Huo Yuhao nodded, feeling a slight sense of approval for Xiao Hongchen.

He hadn't expended much energy, and his soul power was still plentiful. If he continued fighting, he would definitely win.

Jing Hongchen stopped channeling his soul power, his face full of satisfaction, and clapped his hands.

"You're all great!"

Huo Yuhao nodded and withdrew his martial spirit.

"Hey! Huo Yuhao! I lost this time! I'll definitely get my revenge next time!" Xiao Hongchen retracted the liquid metal, which returned to two metal rings on his wrists. He stepped forward and extended his fist towards Huo Yuhao.

"You're not bad either, but unfortunately, I'll still win next time," Huo Yuhao said with a smile, bumping fists with Xiao Hongchen.

"You have a wonderful older brother. Next time, when I fully comprehend the profound teachings Nanxiao imparted to me, I'll definitely impress you!" Xiao Hongchen's face regained its previous proud expression.

"Then you're still doomed to lose. That's my older brother. He taught me far more than you have!" Huo Yuhao grinned through his teeth, his smile malicious.

"Nanxiao is still my close friend!"

"That's my eldest brother too!"

"Tsk! So what! Maybe he'll call me brother someday!" Xiao Hongchen turned to look at the sidelines, searching for Meng Hongchen's figure.

Seeing Xiao Hongchen's actions, Huo Yuhao understood and immediately shouted, "You despicable bastard!"

The two, not wanting to be outdone, pressed their heads together, competing with each other.

"What a passionate youth! Hahaha! Don't you think so, Meng'er?" Jing Hongchen laughed, turning to look at his side.

Meng Hongchen had long since disappeared from his side.

"Meng'er?!"

Ye Nanxiao, who was slacking off in the headquarters of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce, sneezed violently several times.

"Awooo~wooo!!!"

"Strange, who's talking about me?" Ye Nanxiao rubbed his nose.

"Has the boss caught a cold?"

Qiu Wu, who was massaging Ye Nanxiao's shoulders, asked with concern.

"How is that possible? What kind of super virus could infect me?" Ye Nanxiao scoffed.

He himself is the ultimate ice, so he is not susceptible to getting cold.

Qiu Ye sat down next to Ye Nanxiao, holding a bunch of snacks in her hands. She picked a grape and fed it to Ye Nanxiao's lips, while Qiu Tong massaged Ye Nanxiao's legs.

"Ah~ isn't this much better than being stuck in the lab doing research?"

Ye Huli let out a sigh.

Feng Shiyi pushed open the office door. "My dear boss, the project you were working on has made progress."
