Battle!

Battle!

Ma Hongjun looked down on his opponent in spirit, but took him seriously in tactics.

It had to be said that Tang San was also a very good opponent.

After both sides unleashed their Martial Souls,

neither of them wasted words.

Ma Hongjun did not use a soul skill either.

Instead, he charged straight at Tang San.

His soul skills consumed quite a lot of power, and if he used one right away,

Tang San would probably dodge it directly.

He might as well save some strength.

Seeing Ma Hongjun charge at him, Tang San's expression turned solemn.

Purple light flashed in his eyes.

He had clearly activated his Purple Demon Eyes.

In his vision,

Ma Hongjun was moving very quickly, rushing straight toward him.

Yet he did not panic.

When Ma Hongjun reached his side,

his right hand swiftly turned jade-colored.

The Crane Controlling Dragon Capturing technique activated instantly.

Ma Hongjun also felt a force acting upon his right fist.

He immediately understood what it was.

It was Tang San's controlling technique, Crane Controlling Dragon Capturing.

Crane Controlling Dragon Capturing? Let's see whether you can really capture a dragon like me, Ma Hongjun thought.

Noticing Ma Hongjun's right fist sweep past him from the side,

a smile appeared at the corner of Tang San's lips.

But Ma Hongjun instantly twisted around at an unbelievable angle.

He threw a left punch directly at Tang San.

Tang San had not expected Ma Hongjun to avoid his Crane Controlling Dragon Capturing in such a manner.

Caught off guard, he nearly got hit by Ma Hongjun.

Fortunately, his reaction was extremely fast as well.

He quickly pulled back.

He barely dodged Ma Hongjun's left fist.

But how could Ma Hongjun's punches possibly be so easy to evade?

The next moment,

Ma Hongjun continued spinning as he pursued Tang San.

In that instant of battle,

Ma Hongjun seized the opportunity and directly suppressed Tang San.

However, Tang San, who possessed Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track and numerous Tang Sect martial techniques, was truly difficult to deal with.

He could flee at the fastest speed; in short, he was incredibly slippery.

But Ma Hongjun had the Advanced Combat Experience Book.

Wasn't there a saying: anything produced by the system was bound to be high-quality?

That was exactly the situation here.

The Advanced Combat Experience Book had directly bestowed Ma Hongjun with superb combat skills.

That was not something the current Tang San could compare to.

Although he possessed many martial arts from the Tang Sect, he had only been an outer sect disciple before crossing over.

He had exceptional talent and could craft all of their hidden weapons.

He had even learned the Tang Sect's supreme internal cultivation technique.

But no matter what, he had merely been working behind closed doors.

No matter how talented someone was, they still needed guidance at the beginning.

At present,

no one was guiding Tang San at all; he could only rely on himself.

Therefore, Tang San actually had very little combat experience.

Naturally, he could not compare with Ma Hongjun, who possessed Advanced Combat Experience.

Tang San's expression darkened as well, because he was already at an absolute disadvantage.

This was not something he had expected.

The Ma Hongjun before him seemed to be predicting his every move in battle.

He basically struck first every time.

It left Tang San truly passive.

It could be said that he had no ability to resist at all right now.

"First soul skill—Entangle!" Tang San shouted.

He finally used his first soul skill.

The Blue Silver Grass instantly grew larger.

It shot toward Ma Hongjun at tremendous speed.

In an instant,

it wrapped around Ma Hongjun's body.

Seeing that he had trapped Ma Hongjun, a smile immediately appeared on Tang San's face.

Ma Hongjun merely smiled disdainfully.

"Do you really think your Blue Silver Grass can trap me? You're far too naive, Tang San." Ma Hongjun said directly.

Tang San's expression changed.

Ma Hongjun's Phoenix Evil Fire activated instantly.

Scorching flames surged up.

They instantly burned all the Blue Silver Grass around him to ashes.

The next moment,

the yellow soul ring around Ma Hongjun's body shone brightly.

"First soul skill—Phoenix Fire Line!" Ma Hongjun shouted.

Powerful fire energy instantly formed a straight line of flames that shot directly toward Tang San.

Tang San's expression changed.

He could sense the power of the flames.

After being hit yesterday,

his body had suffered severe damage instantly.

Even today, he had not fully recovered.

If he was hit again,

he would definitely be seriously injured.

If that happened, he would probably need a long time to recuperate.

But Ma Hongjun's attack was extremely fast, making it difficult for him to dodge.

Because, just as before,

Ma Hongjun had already predicted his escape route. It could be said that he had completely blocked off his path of retreat.

Under such circumstances, he naturally found it difficult to evade.

However, his combat experience was still decent in the end.

He ultimately paid a certain price to avoid Ma Hongjun's attack.

Ma Hongjun was not actually surprised that he could evade this attack.

If Tang San could be defeated so easily, he would not deserve to be the protagonist of this world.

But since he had encountered Ma Hongjun,

being the protagonist would not help him either.

In fact, the instant his soul skill ended,

Ma Hongjun charged straight at Tang San.

Tang San's expression changed again.

At this moment,

he had only just finished dodging the skill.

He no longer had time to react again.

Was he going to have to use his second Martial Soul so soon? Tang San felt somewhat helpless.

In their previous battle,

to be honest, he felt that his loss to Ma Hongjun

had largely been due to carelessness.

So this time,

he believed that if he took it seriously,

he might not necessarily defeat Ma Hongjun, but he could at least fight him to a draw.

But the actual result was

that he had fallen directly into a passive position from the very beginning.

He had been suppressed and beaten by Ma Hongjun the entire time.

Even after using a soul skill, it had not achieved the slightest effect.

He had even exposed an opening during the gap after using his soul skill.

It left him in an extremely passive position.

And at this moment,

there was not much time left for him to think.

He immediately summoned his second Martial Soul.

A small black hammer instantly appeared in his left hand.

It then grew with the wind.

It became the size of a normal hammer.

Then he forcefully hurled it with his left hand.

It flew straight toward Ma Hongjun.

Ma Hongjun, who was advancing, saw this scene as well.

A faint smile immediately appeared on his lips.

This scene had already been within his expectations.

He had predicted it earlier.

The reason Tang San had challenged him again

was probably because he wanted to use his second Martial Soul.

Therefore, during his battle with Tang San,

he had been paying attention to Tang San's movements almost constantly.

His purpose was to guard against Tang San's second Martial Soul.

The Clear Sky Hammer was famously powerful.

Ma Hongjun did not want to suffer a setback through carelessness.

But at this moment, he also wanted to know just how strong the physique bestowed upon him by his Black Dragon Martial Soul truly was.

Ever since awakening his Martial Soul,

throughout all this time,

he had always been able to feel the Black Dragon Martial Soul and the Source of Magic continuously strengthening his body.

He did not actually know how far it had strengthened him by now.

But it certainly would not be weak.
