Golden Crocodile Douluo Arrives to Watch the Match!

Qin Xuan lunged forward, closing the distance to Xie Yue in a few swift strides.

He followed up immediately, his left fist wreathed in black soul power, and slammed it into Xie Yue's chest.

BOOM—

Xie Yue was instantly sent flying back ten meters, landing on one knee while clutching his chest.

From the moment Qin Xuan lunged to the moment his fist connected, only a few seconds had passed; Xie Yue hadn't even had the chance to react and deploy his second soul skill, "Guard," to deflect the blow.

"Brother!"

"Xie Yue!"

Hu Liena and Yan cried out in alarm, rushing forward to shield him.

Xie Yue's face was deathly pale, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth; he was clearly severely injured.

Qin Xuan's punch had looked simple and unadorned, but the raw force and dark energy contained within were absurdly high.

It was fortunate that Xie Yue's physical constitution was remarkably resilient; had any other ordinary Spirit King taken that blow head-on, they would likely have suffered broken ribs.

One must realize that even without using soul skills, Qin Xuan's terrifying physical toughness and comprehensive martial arts made him a force few Spirit Kings of the same rank could contend with.

Watching the heavily wounded Xie Yue, Qin Xuan did not rush to press his advantage. He stood his ground, sweeping his gaze toward Bibi Dong and the others on the high platform before turning to the Golden Generation, whose faces were filled with a desperate hunger for victory. A thoughtful look crossed his features.

"I'm fine!" Xie Yue gritted his teeth, rising through the sharp pain in his abdomen as he panted heavily.

Seeing this, Qin Xuan sighed inwardly:

A fine fellow, this Xie Yue. A real man!

Today, let me see just how much resolve you Golden Generation truly possess!

At that moment, Hu Liena and her two companions exchanged a knowing look. Yan, moving like a cannonball, was the first to charge at Qin Xuan.

"Fourth soul skill, Magma Surge!"

"Second soul skill, Granite Rock!"

No sooner had the words left his lips than roiling, churning magma erupted beneath Qin Xuan's feet.

The magma acted like a quagmire, temporarily restricting his movement.

As for the burning effect of the magma, it was essentially nullified for Qin Xuan in his current state.

"Got you!"

Seeing Qin Xuan rooted to the spot, Yan swung his rock-encased left arm toward Qin Xuan's face.

Qin Xuan's lips curled slightly. Calm as ever, he countered with a punch of his own!

BANG!

Fists collided.

A moment later, cracks began to spiderweb across the rock covering Yan's left arm, and he was sent flying back thirty meters like a kite with a snapped string!

Clad in his dark armor, Qin Xuan stood like an ancient general, radiating an aura of absolute dominance!

On the high platform, Song Qingling and the others watched on, unable to fathom how the Golden Generation could possibly win.

"Is it because of your second soul skill, Nine Nether Evil God Transformation, that you resisted my Fox Charm?"

"Your defensive power seems to have increased significantly as well!"

Hu Liena looked at Qin Xuan in astonishment, completely ignoring Yan, who had been sent flying.

"My 'Nine Nether Evil God Transformation' clears all negative status effects for thirty minutes, enhances my defense, strengthens my soul skills, and triples all my attributes."

"In this transformed state, your charm skills are naturally ineffective against me."

"Even without the protection of the 'Nine Nether Evil God Transformation,' your mental power alone is nowhere near enough to make me fall for your charms."

Had it been anyone else, Qin Xuan wouldn't have bothered to respond, but since Hu Liena had taken the initiative to ask, it wouldn't have been appropriate to ignore her.

"No wonder a single punch nearly knocked me unconscious."

"So your second soul skill can triple all your attributes!"

Xie Yue sighed, his eyes filled with despair.

"Such a terrifying, comprehensive boost, and it lasts for thirty minutes," Hu Liena murmured, her expression darkening.

Ordinary augmentation-type soul skills usually lasted only a few minutes—fifteen at most—but Qin Xuan's monstrous skill lasted a full half-hour. It was simply heaven-defying!

Xie Yue's abdomen and Yan's left arm were both suffering from varying degrees of injury, yet Qin Xuan stood with his arms crossed, making no further move.

Hu Liena was no fool; she could clearly see that Qin Xuan was holding back!

On the high platform, Bibi Dong's willow-leaf brows furrowed, a flash of disbelief crossing her beautiful eyes.

Though the Pope could be erratic at times, her mind was exceptionally sharp.

"Sigh..." Bibi Dong breathed out softly, thinking to herself:

"What a Qin Xuan, what a Nine Nether Evil God Tiger!"

"Although I knew Nana and the others would surely lose, I never imagined the gap between the three of them and Xuan'er would be this vast."

If Xuan'er didn't hold back, I reckon the Golden Generation wouldn't even last five minutes!

And this is while it's three against one, with Xuan'er even restricting his fifth soul skill.

If not for that, wouldn't Nana and the others have been insta-killed by Xuan'er right at the start?

This Xuan'er is quite sensible, knowing how to leave a shred of face for Nana and the others.

In the Soul Fighting Arena, Yan clutched his numb, swollen left wrist, still shaken. "Such powerful strength! Even with the Flame Overlord's defensive power, I couldn't block it in the slightest!"

"Nana, what should we do now? After all, the Golden Generation's greatest trump card is the martial soul fusion skill 'Demon Charm' between you and me!"

"But Qin Xuan can immunize against all negative effects while in the Nine Nether Evil God Transformation state; the red mist suppression and mental influence brought by Demon Charm are completely useless against him!"

Xie Yue frowned, whispering to Hu Liena to discuss countermeasures.

Watching Qin Xuan, who had yet to launch another attack, his favor for him increased significantly in his heart.

Hearing this, Hu Liena pondered for a moment before speaking with a grave expression:

"We have no choice but to unleash 'Demon Charm' now, and looking at Xiao Xuan's attitude, he shouldn't interrupt our martial soul fusion skill."

"Demon Charm possesses a level comparable to an ordinary Soul Saint and might still have the strength to fight Qin Xuan."

"If we don't use Demon Charm, we will definitely be picked off one by one and suffer certain defeat!"

As soon as she finished speaking.

Qin Xuan suddenly activated his first soul skill, Dark Fire Wind Blade!

Five massive fire blades, each over nine meters in diameter, flew consecutively toward Yan!

The fire blades were originally only three meters, but having been tripled in strength by the Nine Nether Evil God Transformation state, their pressure became even more terrifying!

He had been standing in place for over a minute; if he didn't launch some symbolic attacks, the fact that he was throwing the match would be too obvious...

"Second soul skill, Granite Rock!"

Yan dared not be careless in the slightest, hurriedly wrapping his entire body in rock before crossing his arms in front of his face.

BOOM--

The five fire blades attacked Yan in a straight line.

When the first blade struck, the immense inertia caused Yan's feet to slide backward by three meters.

Though his face turned pale, he managed to withstand the fire blade head-on!

Immediately following, the next four fire blades overlapped with the first, causing the blade to surge to a height of fifteen meters!

Yan could no longer hold on!

He was blasted over two hundred meters away by the fire blades, crashing heavily to the ground before passing out.
