Tang San's Trump Card!
Therefore, Ma Hongjun made a bold decision.
He decided to clash head-on with the Clear Sky Hammer.
To see whether the changes the Black Dragon Martial Soul had brought to his body were stronger,
or whether the Clear Sky Hammer was stronger.
With that thought in mind,
Ma Hongjun did not alter his direction of attack at all.
Instead, he continued charging straight at Tang San.
Seeing Ma Hongjun rush directly at him without any intention of dodging,
a sneer appeared on Tang San's lips.
He knew perfectly well how heavy his Clear Sky Hammer was.
For Ma Hongjun to come at him so directly and clash head-on
was exactly what he wanted.
Ma Hongjun was about to learn a profound lesson.
The next moment, the two collided head-on.
Wary of the Clear Sky Hammer,
Ma Hongjun had concentrated nearly half of his Soul Power into his hands.
Although he wanted to see whether the Clear Sky Hammer was truly as powerful as legend claimed,
he would not test it at the cost of injuring himself.
The instant Ma Hongjun struck the Clear Sky Hammer, he felt a tremendous force surge from it.
His expression immediately changed.
The power contained within this so-called Clear Sky Hammer was indeed formidable.
Yet what struck him as strange was that it seemed to be no more than that.
The opposite was true for Tang San.
He only felt an immense force coming from Ma Hongjun's hand.
Or rather, through his Clear Sky Hammer, he felt Ma Hongjun's tremendous strength.
His face changed drastically.
He had never expected Ma Hongjun's physique to be so tough.
He had actually withstood the Clear Sky Hammer barehanded.
It was simply unbelievable.
Yet it had undeniably happened right before his eyes.
The tremendous force from Ma Hongjun's hand directly sent his Clear Sky Hammer flying.
It even carried his entire body backward.
Actually, it could not be called retreating backward.
It would be more accurate to say that he was sent flying.
He flew roughly five or six meters.
Then crashed to the ground.
On Ma Hongjun's side, he too took three or four steps back before steadying himself.
At this stage, the Black Dragon Martial Soul had strengthened his body.
But apparently, the enhancement was not thorough enough yet.
Even so,
Ma Hongjun was quite satisfied. He believed that as time passed, his physique would grow increasingly stronger.
But even so,
it was enough to shock Tang San.
He had already used his second martial soul.
Yet it seemed to have had no effect at all.
The recoil from that strike had been powerful.
Thus, Tang San was somewhat unsteady as he got to his feet.
The scene of battle left Xiao Wu somewhat dazed, because she realized she was no match for either of them.
That was not even the most important part.
What mattered most was the little hammer in Tang San's hand.
Tang San had not used any weapon just now.
That meant the little hammer in his hand was actually his martial soul.
The phrase Twin Martial Souls instantly surfaced in Xiao Wu's mind.
Realizing this, Xiao Wu was immediately stunned.
She had not expected Tang San to possess Twin Martial Souls.
Twin Martial Souls!
That meant Tang San's talent was unquestionably extraordinary.
But what shocked Xiao Wu even more
was that even such a powerful Tang San apparently was no match for Ma Hongjun.
So just how strong was Ma Hongjun?
Ma Hongjun sneered and said, "You have already lost. Remember not to bother me again in the future, or next time it will not be this simple."
Tang San's expression turned incomparably ugly.
Had he truly lost again? Had he still lost even after using his second martial soul?
Seeing the ugly look on Tang San's face,
Ma Hongjun said, "I never expected you to have a second martial soul."
Tang San raised his head and looked at Ma Hongjun again. It could be said that everything had already been exposed.
Yet he had still lost under these circumstances.
It made him feel utterly miserable.
Because his father had once warned him
never to reveal his second martial soul.
But now, it seemed that he had exposed it.
Thinking of this made him feel uneasy and ashamed.
But what pained him most was that he had still lost even after using his second martial soul.
The strength of the person before him exceeded his imagination.
Seeing that Tang San said nothing,
Ma Hongjun lost interest as well.
He then reminded Tang San once again.
"Remember what you said. Do not come bother me again." After saying that, he turned to Xiao Wu. "Xiao Wu, let's go."
Xiao Wu had no objections.
But just then,
Tang San's voice rang out again. "I have not lost yet."
Before Ma Hongjun could respond,
Xiao Wu immediately said, "Tang San, do you have no shame? You are already like that, and you still do not admit defeat?"
Ma Hongjun said nothing.
He wanted to see what tricks Tang San intended to pull.
"I have not lost." Tang San was stubborn at this moment.
Ma Hongjun's gaze sharpened.
The next moment,
his figure abruptly vanished from where he stood, charging at Tang San with incredible speed.
Tang San's pupils contracted, and he swiftly flicked his right arm.
Two tiny steel needles shot toward Ma Hongjun at lightning speed.
This was Tang San's trump card: hidden weapons.
But since Ma Hongjun dared to charge forward,
it meant he had already prepared himself.
The Black Dragon Martial Soul had not only given him a powerful physique.
It had also given him extraordinarily sharp senses.
He rushed forward at high speed, and halfway there, Ma Hongjun instantly dodged Tang San's steel needles.
Tang San was not surprised. He continued using hidden-weapon techniques to fling out numerous steel needles.
This time, the sheer number of hidden weapons completely sealed off both Ma Hongjun's path forward and his path of retreat.
Facing this scene,
Ma Hongjun felt no fear whatsoever.
He merely stood where he was.
Then a dragon's roar sounded.
An even more powerful pressure radiated from his body.
With Tang San's current Soul Power Level, the hidden weapons he used could not possibly break through Ma Hongjun's defense.
Just as he had expected, the steel needles Tang San flung out were sent flying before they could even reach him.
Tang San's pupils contracted at the sight.
The pressure radiating from Ma Hongjun had already surpassed what it had been before.
His heart sank.
He seemed to have been utterly defeated.
On Ma Hongjun's side, after his second Martial Soul Possession, his speed and strength rose once more.
After deflecting the steel needles,
Ma Hongjun charged straight at Tang San.
Fear showed in Tang San's eyes.
The recoil from before had already injured him badly.
Coupled with the exhaustion of his own strength,
Tang San now had virtually no ability to fight back.
Just like that,
Tang San was sent flying again.
This time, Ma Hongjun did not hold back.
Because Tang San had used hidden weapons just now.
If he had not been able to deflect them,
the consequences would have been severe.
Tang San in this state was no longer worth showing mercy to.
As for what consequences there might be for beating him?
Ma Hongjun could not concern himself with that now.
Just like that,
a quarter of an hour later, Ma Hongjun finally stopped. As for Tang San before him,
he had become a pig-headed mess.
