Irene Appears!

Irene Appears!

Tang Hao had already made up his mind.

The power he had just used was absolutely not something Ma Hongjun could withstand.

As a true powerhouse,

his control over his strength had already reached its peak.

He could be certain that his previous attack could have killed Ma Hongjun.

Yet it had been deflected.

That meant Ma Hongjun possessed some unknown secret.

At that thought,

the killing intent in Tang Hao's heart intensified.

He was merely a six-year-old child,

yet he had already reached such a level.

If he were allowed to grow,

what heights would he reach in the future?

It was simply impossible to estimate.

Most importantly,

they had already become enemies.

Nipping an enemy in the bud

was basic common sense in the Soul Master world.

Thus, he attacked again.

This time, his figure vanished from where he stood.

He shot straight toward Ma Hongjun.

He would not make the same mistake twice.

So this time, it would be a killing blow.

But just as he was about to touch Ma Hongjun's body,

he discovered a powerful repulsive force emanating from him.

Tang Hao understood at once.

That was why

the hammer formed from his soul power had been knocked away earlier.

After sensing the strength of that repulsive force,

Tang Hao sneered inwardly.

Though this force was strong,

it could not stop him.

He directly increased his output of soul power.

In the next instant, he broke through the repulsive force.

Then, he continued forward.

But at that moment,

a figure appeared and blocked his path.

A wooden staff swept through the air,

directly stopping his fatal strike.

Tang Hao's pupils contracted.

He could sense from the wooden staff that the newcomer was extremely powerful.

The two exchanged a blow.

Then they both retreated.

After stepping back,

Tang Hao finally saw the newcomer clearly.

It was actually a woman.

She wore a long dress patterned with violets

and held a staff in her hand.

That staff had just blocked his attack.

When he saw the woman's face,

even Tang Hao was startled.

He had believed Ah Yin to be one of the rarest beauties in the world.

Yet this woman's appearance was not inferior to Ah Yin's in the slightest.

She might even surpass her slightly.

But that was not the most important thing.

The most important thing was that the woman's aura was as vast and unfathomable as an abyss.

During their previous exchange,

although he had not used his full strength,

the other party had certainly not used hers either.

It could be said that he could not gauge her true strength at all.

And how had she appeared?

That was something worth noting.

Before coming here, he had carefully examined the surrounding area.

There should not have been any powerhouses nearby.

Yet just now,

she had managed to save Ma Hongjun at the critical moment.

That alone proved she was far from ordinary.

"Who are you?" Tang Hao asked directly.

Although he was wary of her,

he was a Title Douluo powerhouse,

the famed Clear Sky Douluo.

Naturally, he would not fear her.

"Who I am is none of your concern. You cannot touch this child." A cool voice rang out.

Tang Hao frowned at her words.

Her purpose was clearly to protect Ma Hongjun.

But he had already made his move.

How could he possibly stop now?

He was the Clear Sky Douluo.

How could he give up before achieving his goal?

"And what if I insist?" Tang Hao said coldly.

The cool voice turned icy. "Then you may try."

Neither side was willing to yield.

It could be said that both were exceedingly domineering.

One intended to kill, while the other intended to protect. A battle was inevitable.

"Then I'll try." Tang Hao said directly.

After saying that,

his figure vanished again.

He charged straight at Irene.

Irene saw this.

A sneer appeared at the corner of her lips.

Did he really think she was made of clay?

Then her figure also vanished from where she stood.

In the blink of an eye,

the two exchanged more than ten moves.

Neither gained any advantage.

The sonic booms echoing through the air were enough to make one's scalp tingle.

Of course,

there was no one here.

The only person present, Ma Hongjun, had already fainted from being unable to hold on any longer.

The two exchanged another blow.

Both retreated again.

Irene stood in front of Ma Hongjun.

Tang Hao also widened the distance between them.

At this moment, Tang Hao's heart was extremely grave.

Because during their exchange of fists and kicks,

they had appeared evenly matched.

But Tang Hao knew

that he had actually fallen into a disadvantage.

The other party's combat experience was simply terrifyingly profound.

If she had not given him a sense of weakness,

he probably would not have been her match at all.

How could he describe that feeling? A fist fears youthful strength.

Although he did not know why he felt this way,

Tang Hao was already considering retreat.

Someone capable of such combat instincts

was absolutely no ordinary powerhouse.

However, since he had already made his move,

he had to at least uncover her true strength.

He had lost in terms of combat techniques, but battles between Soul Masters

were not decided by techniques alone.

The factors determining victory also included soul power level,

the use of soul skills,

the grade of one's martial soul, and more.

Combat skill

was merely one relatively important factor among them.

The next moment,

Tang Hao directly unleashed his aura.

Soul rings slowly descended one by one from above his head.

Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, red.

A total of nine soul rings circled his body.

The aura of a Title Douluo was displayed without the slightest concealment.

Across from him,

Irene also sensed the other party's strength.

She frowned inwardly as well.

She had only just recovered a tiny bit,

and now she had run into this kind of nonsense again.

She glanced at the unconscious Ma Hongjun.

Her teeth immediately itched with irritation.

Next time, I'm definitely going to beat this little fatty up and make his butt bloom. Irene thought.

"Who exactly are you? What is your relationship with him?" Tang Hao asked.

With his martial soul already possessed, he appeared utterly imposing.

His words were filled with confidence as well.

Because Tang Hao was certain

that in this world,

although there were people capable of defeating him,

there were absolutely not many.

When Irene heard Tang Hao's voice, she turned to look at him.

This is the guy who's about to make the soul power I finally recovered disappear again.

It was just that one glance.

This left Tang Hao feeling as though he had fallen into an ice cellar.

What kind of gaze was that? Lofty and condescending? Indifferent to everything?

It carried cold arrogance amid its nobility, and disdain amid its chill.

In any case, Tang Hao felt his heart pound with unease.

But as one of the foremost powerhouses of Douluo Continent,

he quickly regained his senses.

Although the other party's gaze was terrifying,

there was little energy fluctuation coming from her.

Even now,

Tang Hao still could not see through Irene.

Just then,

Irene spoke.

"Get lost before I become truly angry. This little fatty isn't someone you can touch," Irene said bluntly.

Tang Hao was so furious that he laughed instead.

"There are very few people in this world who can make me get lost. Clearly, you aren't qualified," Tang Hao said.

The next moment,

the Clear Sky Hammer appeared in Tang Hao's hand.

Since the other party was unwilling to talk,

then strength would do the talking.
