Douluo: Bestowing Ning Rongrong in Marriage, Reward: Heaven Shading Method

After several exchanges in the Soul Fighting Arena, the Hammer Brothers, feeling somewhat helpless, stopped where they were. Looking at Ye Xingchen, who stood as immovable as a mountain, the two said bitterly:

"We surrender. You won't move at all, so there's simply no way for us to fight you!"

"But we won't accept this! Your fighting style is nothing but that of a turtle hiding in its shell!"

Hearing this, Ye Xingchen, who stood with his hands behind his back, smiled faintly as he looked at the two men who had no way to deal with him.

He immediately took a step forward and said calmly:

"My unwillingness to make a move does not mean I cannot defeat you. It means you cannot withstand it!"

"This punch of mine carries eighteen years of inner strength. Can you take it?"

After saying that, Ye Xingchen took another step forward.

At once, the Soul Power and Spiritual Power within him erupted.

The formidable power of a level 29 Soul Grandmaster swept out in all directions!

Stunned in place, the Hammer Brothers felt a trace of fear at the sight.

Yet, seeing Ye Xingchen take the initiative to attack, they still charged forward despite themselves.

"This is what we've been waiting for! Let's settle who is stronger this time!"

"Take my hammer! I'll show you what I'm capable of!"

As Ye Xingchen strode forward, he looked at the hammer rushing toward him and threw a punch without hesitation.

A muffled groan rang out, followed by a streak of white light slowly dispersing in every direction.

The Hammer Brothers stared in disbelief at the hammer cracking apart inch by inch before them, frozen on the spot.

Especially the eldest brother. Looking at his shattered hammer, he could not help but wonder whether he would have survived if that punch had landed on him.

Looking at the white-clad figure before him, he felt fear for the first time.

"We surrender. You're too strong!"

Ye Xingchen calmly nodded at the surrendering Hammer Brothers, then lightly drifted back.

The spectators below the stage were stunned, and cries of shock erupted everywhere.

"I'm speechless. What kind of terrifying strength was that? He actually smashed the Hammer Brothers' weapons to pieces!"

"That was so badass! 'This punch of mine carries twenty years of skill—can you take it?'"

"This battle was so thrilling! As expected of a powerhouse. It's unbearably enviable!"

At the center of the stage, Ye Xingchen, having secured a brief victory, remained calm as he slowly walked toward the three girls waiting for him.

"Looks really can be deceiving. This young gentleman is so powerful that he's completely refreshed my worldview!"

Seeing that the battle had ended, the passionate Host slowly flew down from the high platform. Raising his microphone, he shouted to the surrounding crowd.

The audience below sighed one after another. Those who had placed the wrong bets were full of complaints, while those who had bet everything correctly made a fortune and beamed with delight.

"Husband, you're really amazing!"

"At this rate, once you obtain your third Soul Ring, you'll probably become the strongest Soul Elder!"

Ning Rongrong looked joyfully at Ye Xingchen, then stepped forward to hook her arm around his and asked with a smile.

"Probably. But obtaining the third Soul Ring will require some luck."

Ye Xingchen smiled and patted Ning Rongrong's head.

"What an enviable ability. You're only level 29, yet the strength you possess as a Soul Grandmaster is already comparable to a top-tier Soul Elder!" Xiao Wu sighed. "Once you become a Soul Elder, your strength will probably be comparable to a Soul Elder. Fighting opponents above your level will be as easy as pie for you!"

Hearing Xiao Wu say this, the pride on Ning Rongrong's face deepened. She nodded and laughed.

"Of course! My Husband is invincible under heaven. He's destined to take me across the entire Douluo Continent someday!"

Zhu Zhuqing, standing nearby, smiled softly. Looking at the two holding hands, a trace of envy flashed in her eyes. When would she be able to touch that irresistible arm too...?

"You're not bad either. Fighting across realms should be quite easy for you too, right?"

Ye Xingchen smiled indifferently, then turned to look at Xiao Wu and teased:

"Your Martial Soul is so special. Your strength will probably continue to grow by leaps and bounds in the future!"

Xiao Wu's face flushed upon hearing this. She knew that this fellow before her was aware of her identity.

She could do nothing about it, but she became even more curious about his identity. After all, since leaving the Star Dou Great Forest, he was the second interesting human she had encountered.

At the same time, on a high platform not far away, Tang San looked at the number plate lighting up in his hand, and his expression changed slightly.

When he turned around, he saw that in the latest match order, his name was listed among the participants. His opponent was none other than Tang Sect, the persona created by Ye Xingchen.

Seeing Xiao Wu on the large screen, Tang San's heart ached slightly. Was Xiao Wu going to stand against him now too?

"The new match order has been released! Please welcome contestant Tang San and the newly victorious Stunning Tang Sect!"

"Let them bring us another exciting battle! You'd better keep your eyes open when placing your bets this time!"

The dazzling Host smiled, stepped aside from the stage, and came before the crowd to joke with them.

When the spectators staring at the large screen saw that Stunning Tang Sect was fighting again, they immediately erupted into uproar and rushed toward the service counter to place their bets.

"Put 1,000 gold coins on Stunning Tang Sect! I'm betting on him to win. I have to win back my losses this time!"

"I'll put down 2,000 gold coins! Tang San looks like an idiot. He'll definitely lose. That guy is so strong, so he'll definitely win!"

"That's right. That skinny fellow in blue doesn't look like much of a fighter. Let's bet on Stunning Tang Sect..."

Standing in the center of the stage, Ye Xingchen smiled faintly as he looked at the battle order on the large screen. Turning back to glance at Tang San walking toward the stage, a strange glimmer appeared in his eyes.

"Our opponent is actually Tang San. How should we deal with him this time? He is our classmate, after all!"

Zhu Zhuqing looked thoughtfully at Xiao Wu and tentatively asked:

"How about you go, Xiao Wu? None of us would feel right attacking him. What do you think? Besides, we're no match for him."

Feeling somewhat conflicted, Xiao Wu nodded. As she watched Brother Tang San in blue, she was about to step forward when Ye Xingchen reached out and stopped her.

"Let me do it. Why should a battle between men require a woman to step in?"

A battle between men?

Xiao Wu's pretty face reddened slightly at those words. She looked at the white-clad figure already walking onto the stage, and her heart began pounding wildly again.

On the stage, Tang San watched the white-clad figure walk up once more.

He felt a trace of pressure. Taking a step forward, he said calmly:

"Didn't we already decide the winner between us? Why are you coming up again? Was humiliating me once not enough? Do you want to humiliate me a second time?"

Ye Xingchen smiled faintly at Tang San's words. Looking at the man before him, who had already lost his fighting spirit, he said calmly:

"If that's the case, then let me humiliate you again!"

"Because I think a weakling who has lost his fighting spirit is unworthy of being my opponent. He might as well be trampled to death beneath my foot!"

Opponent?

Tang San's face was bitter as a trace of melancholy appeared on it.

Looking at the invincible figure before him, he waved his hand, and his Soul Rings emerged.

"Come on. I've been constantly reflecting on myself these past few days. I don't believe I'll lose to you a second time!"

After saying that, Tang San swiftly closed in. Soul Power immediately spread from his hands!

Blue Silver Grass vines rose around the center of the stage, sweeping toward Ye Xingchen like snakes.

In an instant, they formed a Blue Silver Grass cage, with strands of Soul Power capable of numbing one's consciousness radiating within it.

"Tang San is using his ultimate move right from the start. It looks like he's going all out. After all, he's facing an opponent like Brother Ye!"

Seeing this from the high platform, Dai Mubai could not help shaking his head.

"I'm looking forward more and more to seeing how their duel will turn out. After all, he's the only one capable of fighting Brother Ye!"

Oscar smiled dismissively. Looking at Tang San charging forward, he teased:

"This guy is getting impatient. Haven't you noticed? His Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul is more suited for restraint, but attacking at such close range doesn't match his Martial Soul abilities!"

Ma Hongjun, standing nearby, nodded slightly. Glancing at Tang San, he said with a smile:

"Want to make a bet? Tang San is going to lose horribly..."

"Even a battle Soul Master like me wouldn't last three seconds against Brother Ye. Let alone someone like him!"

As soon as he finished speaking, something shocking happened on the stage, causing all three of them to fall silent.

At the center of the battle stage, Tang San, clad in blue, soared high into the air like a god descending from heaven.

In his right hand, a Clear Sky Hammer wrapped in Blue Silver Grass vines quietly appeared.

He glanced at Ye Xingchen trapped inside the Blue Silver Grass cage and smashed downward without hesitation. An explosion instantly resounded in every direction.

As the smoke slowly dispersed, Ye Xingchen stood as steady as Mount Tai within the Blue Silver Grass vine cage, completely unmoved.

Above his head, the Heavenly Emperor Cauldron Martial Soul shone brilliantly, releasing streams of golden light that protected his body.

"It seems you have indeed made considerable progress these past few days. You actually used retreat as an advance..."

"Unfortunately, even so, you still cannot hurt me, nor are you my opponent!"

Ye Xingchen stood with his hands behind his back and shook his head slightly as he looked at Tang San, who had used retreat as an advance. After saying that, he stepped forward.

The Cloud Pattern Long Sword quietly appeared in his hand!

Immediately afterward, Sword Qi Dragons swept out in all directions. The Blue Silver Grass vine cage binding him instantly shattered inch by inch and turned to ash!

Tang San, standing in midair, could not help but change expression at the sight. He had intended to abandon restraint and use retreat as an advance to fight this man again.

Yet just like before, he could not harm him in the slightest.

"Our fight isn't over yet. Stop talking so big!"

Tang San shook his head bitterly and dove down. The Blue Silver Grass vines in his hands immediately wound toward Ye Xingchen.

Seeing this, Xiao Wu and the others in the distance all shook their heads.

Especially after the white-clad figure took a step forward, it seemed they had already seen the outcome of the battle!

"Tang San seems a little anxious. He knows my Husband's defense is invincible, so why did he still choose close combat?"

Hearing Ning Rongrong say this, Xiao Wu could not help but smile bitterly. Looking at Tang San, whose fighting style was entirely different from before, she calmly analyzed:

"Perhaps their previous fight was what made him change like this..."

They had fought before?

Zhu Zhuqing was slightly stunned. Looking at the two favored sons of heaven on the stage, she asked curiously:

"When did they fight?"

"From the looks of it, Tang San must have lost, right? Brother Ye looks completely at ease!"

Xiao Wu shook her head, finding it difficult to explain. Looking at Tang San, who was at a disadvantage on the stage, she did not know what to say for the moment.

Regarding the relationship between the two sides, she had actually maintained a subtle balance with both of them. Unfortunately, after coming to Shrek Academy, that subtle balance had completely vanished.

"His mentality is seriously flawed. Perhaps after this battle, he might be reborn!"

Muttering to herself, Xiao Wu shook her head. Looking at Tang San on the stage, she immediately stepped forward. The next second, she charged toward the two of them.

Tang San, who was fighting Ye Xingchen, felt somewhat strange when he saw Xiao Wu join the battle.

The Blue Silver Grass vines he had extended instantly retracted. He took ten steps back and stopped attacking.
