Master, You're So Fast

~

Hong Yue was just about to keep talking when she suddenly froze. Then she said, "Ah, it looks like I really did mistake you for someone else."

Zhang Tianyu breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiao Wu nudged Zhang Tianyu with her elbow. "Hey, aren't you disappointed?"

"Why would I be disappointed?"

"They're such gorgeous twin sisters, even prettier than the twins who used to hang around Dai Mubai—and they're twins with completely different styles, too. Aren't you disappointed you can't be their master?"

Zhang Tianyu shot her a look. "Don't you know me? Do you think I care about something like that?"

Xiao Wu pouted. "Well, I don't know!"

Zhang Tianyu was about to speak when Hong Yue suddenly gave him a coquettish smile and said sweetly,

"But it looks like you resemble my master. How about we make a bet? If you can beat us today, we'll acknowledge you as our master. How does that sound?"

The moment she said this, the crowd erupted!

Damn it, are they never going to quit? Someone tell them to stop messing around, Zhang Tianyu thought.

"Hey! How can you be so shameless?" Xiao Wu couldn't take it anymore and pointed at Hong Yue as she scolded her.

Hong Yue ignored her and gazed intently at Zhang Tianyu instead.

Zhang Tianyu rolled his eyes.

The system replied, "They think this is a good opportunity to make your relationship public."

What the hell! Zhang Tianyu was exasperated. If they acknowledge me as their master, how am I supposed to flirt with girls in the future?

Lan Yue was more sensible. "All right, we were only joking. Now, please give it your all."

Below the stage.

"Boss Dai! Let's team up! We'll fight them, and if we win, we can be their masters!" Ma Hongjun said excitedly.

To be honest, Dai Mubai was tempted, too.

He'd never had the pleasure of enjoying twins of such high caliber before. It was impossible not to be interested.

But then he considered Zhu Zhuqing, standing beside him.

He immediately refused with righteous conviction. "Forget it. Not a chance. Besides, even if I could handle one of them, you couldn't handle the other."

Flender mercilessly mocked his student. "Look closely. They're both level 37 experts. With your measly strength, you think you can be their master?"

"Then let's team up, Teacher!" Ma Hongjun said at once.

Flender grabbed him by the ear. "Are you out of your mind? If we team up, do you think you'll fight a Soul Elder? You'll be up against a Soul Saint!"

Flender gave his ear a fierce tug, and Ma Hongjun finally came to his senses. He hung his head in despair.

"Now you know how weak you are?" Flender said earnestly. "It's good to know you're weak. If you aren't strong enough, you don't even deserve to chase after women! Remember that!"

Ma Hongjun nodded solemnly.

The Soul Fighting match between the two sides began on the platform.

Both sisters had Tool Martial Souls.

Hong Yue's Martial Soul, the Crimson Empress, was a long blade wreathed in flames.

Lan Yue's Martial Soul, the Azure Rose, consisted of two gun-shaped weapons that looked as if they were carved from ice and radiated cold.

One was ice, the other fire; one fought at range, the other up close. On top of that, they had a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

Tsk, tsk. Those two would probably be invincible among opponents of the same level if they teamed up.

Zhang Tianyu and Xiao Wu completed Martial Soul Possession at the same time.

He didn't plan to take the two of them out in one blow right from the start. He wanted to see just how strong they were.

"First Soul Skill: Flame Armor!"

"First Soul Skill: Ice Touch!"

The sisters used their first Soul Skills at the same time.

A layer of fiery red armor instantly appeared on Hong Yue, completely covering her full, alluring figure.

At first glance, she looked just like a warrior in armor.

Lan Yue's appearance didn't change much, but her hands and feet began to glow with an icy blue light.

"Flame Armor increases attack, defense, and speed, boosts Soul Skill damage, and burns enemies within a one-meter radius. Ice Touch increases attack speed, movement speed, and Soul Skill damage. Anyone hit by her bullets will be slowed by 30%," the system explained.

Zhang Tianyu nodded to himself. "Hong Yue's the tank. I'll have to go to Gengxin City and get her some good armor. Lan Yue's more like a ranged assassin. I'll have to find a way to get her some Soul Tools that boost her speed."

As they spoke, Hong Yue charged right at them. Xiao Wu fearlessly rushed to meet her, anger blazing in her eyes.

Lan Yue raised both guns and pulled the triggers repeatedly at Zhang Tianyu.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The bullets that came from the muzzles weren't ordinary steel rounds. They were icy blue Soul Power projectiles.

And they could track their targets. Zhang Tianyu rode his Flying Sword to dodge, but the bullets went straight up into the sky after him, following right behind him.

"Impressive!" Zhang Tianyu exclaimed. "My fireballs, Flying Sword, and sword energy can all track targets, but those are all Soul Skills. Lan Yue doesn't even need to use a Soul Skill—the bullets fired by her Martial Soul can track targets on their own!"

The system replied, "After all, their opponents are Soul Masters, who are fast. Straight-flying bullets would have trouble hitting them."

"Fair enough." Zhang Tianyu nodded. "But we'd better end this quickly. The more they reveal about their abilities, the harder things will be for them later."

On the ground, Xiao Wu was already fighting Hong Yue.

Xiao Wu was no match for Hong Yue to begin with, and now Hong Yue had the protection of her armor—especially since it even had the effect of Sunfire Cape.

Xiao Wu was suffering terribly. Forget whether she could win; she barely dared to attack at all. Even getting close made her feel as if she were burning!

Damn woman! Xiao Wu cursed inwardly. First you try to seduce my Tian Yu, and now you're this hard to beat!

Hong Yue smiled. "Come on, don't just run away. Come and fight me."

Xiao Wu gritted her teeth in fury!

Even without Zhang Tianyu telling her to, Hong Yue would never hurt Xiao Wu, so she just kept teasing her.

But the more she teased her, the angrier Xiao Wu got.

Just then, Lan Yue let out a startled cry behind them.

Hong Yue froze. She turned around and saw a figure wreathed in black light rushing toward her.

Hong Yue was startled. By the time she tried to react, it was too late.

In the blink of an eye, a Black Sword was at her throat.

"I'm out." Hong Yue dispelled her armor, shrugged, and left the platform.

As she passed Zhang Tianyu,

Hong Yue whispered, "Ah~ Master, you're so fast!"

"Damn it." Zhang Tianyu rolled his eyes.

Don't call me fast!

Only Lan Yue remained. Though Ice Touch had made her very fast, her speed was child's play before Yellow Springs. Like Hong Yue, she was subdued in a single exchange.

"Master, you're so fast~" Lan Yue murmured with a soft moan.

"Damn it, do you believe I'll have my way with you two when I get the chance?" Zhang Tianyu was fuming. "Then you'll find out whether I'm fast or not!"

"They said okay," the system said.

Damn it. Then they can wait for me.

"The Phoenix Dances in the Nine Heavens Team wins! Incredible!" the host exclaimed. "I can't believe contestant Ximen Chuixue was so fast!"

Zhang Tianyu:

"He actually dared to say you're fast? Let the host find out whether you're fast or not, too!" the system said.

"Shut the hell up," Zhang Tianyu said.
