Chapter 100 The Power of the Soul

The Black Night fighter ejected, striding towards the Underworld Fire fighter. Romero's mouth held a savage grin, and with a wild roar, the Underworld Blade was drawn.

Clang!

The two mobile suits charged at full speed towards each other, the Underworld Blade and Blood Moon colliding violently. Red light exploded, the mecha engines roared, and the two sides wrestled, the mecha emitting creaking sounds.

Boom!

The two mobile suits bounced apart. The next second, they simultaneously dashed forward at close range. Clang!

With an explosive sound, the Underworld Fire fighter and the Black Night fighter exchanged positions. At the same time, the two mobile suits mirrored and turned. The Underworld Fire genesis directly executed an arc flash, taking the lead in opening the offensive curtain. The Underworld Blade, like a blade from hell, spun and slashed at the Black Night fighter, one slash, one slash, one slash, clang clang clang clang!

Every explosion reverberated in the hearts of the Martians. Romero had once again become a lone wolf. As long as he defeated Li Hao, the lone wolf would still have a chance to dominate this match.

The frantic slashes were steadily defended by the Black Night saber. Li Hao had initially used the Armored Dragon to withstand the Underworld Fire, but now, having switched to the more mobile Black Night fighter, he was as stable as a space fortress, without the slightest flaw. The rotating Underworld Fire fighter spun faster and faster, suddenly feinting with an empty blade, flipping over and kicking out a leg. The Black Night fighter leaned back, but the Underworld Fire fighter didn't try to control the mecha, instead using a feint, followed by a double spiral kick!

The Underworld Fire fighter fully extended, and the Black Night fighter had no room to dodge. Boom...

The Black Night fighter was finally hit, but before the Underworld Fire fighter could launch an attack, the Black Night fighter, bracing against the Underworld Fire, delivered a flying kick, hitting the Underworld Fire squarely. The Underworld Fire fighter flew out, tumbling in mid-air before landing directly on the ground.

The Black Night fighter and the Underworld Fire fighter faced each other again.

At this point, the number of viewers in the live broadcast room had reached 1.5 billion, which was rare for a top 16 qualifying match.

Romero licked his lips, his crimson eyes radiating light, flames burning, the Golden Zone's burning will.

Clearly, Romero's burning will was stronger than anyone before him. The fire of fusion quickly spread, the Underworld Blade burning, and the Underworld Fire fighter's engine roared, building momentum.

The Black Night fighter, with its long blade poised, faced Romero's Underworld Fire fighter, which had already charged over. Just then, the Black Night fighter suddenly unleashed a flash attack.

Boom!

Romero's Underworld Fire fighter flew out. Romero gritted his teeth, his blood-red eyes frantic. Sure enough, the Black Night fighter had already pursued, and the titanium shield slammed up to block.

Boom!

The Underworld Fire fighter suffered another heavy blow, but managed to defend. However, before he could rejoice for even a second, the Black Night fighter detonated its second-stage drive engine, using the force to soar into the air, delivering a heavy whip-like leg press.

Boom!

The Underworld Fire fighter crashed to the ground, rolling on the spot to narrowly avoid the Black Night fighter's stomp.

Boom... the ground exploded. The Underworld Fire fighter propped itself up with its left hand, spinning on the ground, the entire mecha tumbling, the Underworld Blade striking out, clang clang clang clang clang...

Blood Moon parried, suddenly using the scabbard to directly stop the Underworld Fire fighter's frantic attack. Blood Moon swayed, pulling away from the Underworld Blade, and the Black Night fighter, like a god of war, crashed in, a shoulder slam!

With an explosive sound, the Underworld Fire fighter was lifted up, but Romero actually tried to forcibly control it and take the blow. The next second, the Black Night fighter executed a spinning side kick.

Boom!

This time, the Underworld Fire fighter was completely kicked away. Romero, who didn't have time to defend in the cockpit, started bleeding from the corner of his mouth. He swallowed a few times, forcing down the blood that had welled up in his throat, controlling the mecha in mid-air, directly stabilizing its center of gravity, and landing with a thud.

Bang!

The Underworld Fire fighter knelt on one knee, the Underworld Blade planted in the ground. For a moment, the entire galactic center was silent. Was this... the legendary Puppet?

Which son of a bitch said he was just an internet celebrity?

This is a god of war! When had Romero ever been beaten like this?

"Is this real? Has Romero gotten weaker?"

"Is Puppet really that strong?"

"No way, Wolf Warrior was overrated. What mid-season champion? That's bullshit. He lost once on livestream before, embarrassing himself. He hasn't improved at all after all this time!"

"Wolf Warrior is useless. His best result is the top four, which says a lot. The team is also frivolous!"

"Can't even beat a Tianjing Mecha Academy?"

"Is that the unheard-of Tianjing Mecha Academy? Seems just so-so."

After the silence, the scene, both live and in the broadcast room, suddenly became a hubbub. Romero... was on the decline.

In the VIP room, Lagrange's expression was grave. He knew who the opponent was, but the gap shouldn't be this big. Romero was a top Martian warrior. There must be a chance. He shouldn't have let this kid live back then.

Wu Fa carefully watched the Black Night saber. He also knew about Li Hao and had heard a little about him from Musashi. After looking at his profile, he couldn't quite figure him out. He didn't know the details of what happened back then very well. Could he still maintain this state after being delayed for so many years?

Su Yu was starting to doubt her eyes. During training, she just assumed her opponent wasn't serious, and he couldn't win in a real match? Wasn't Tianjing Mecha Academy ninth in the mid-season?

Su Yu rubbed her eyes again, glancing at A Youyou, who looked calm on the surface but whose eyes were curved with joy... In the sea of people on Earth, she was able to pick out such a treasure at first glance in the sea of people in Tianjing?

At this moment, in the Tianjing Mecha Academy's rest area, Ma Long and Huo Ying couldn't control themselves. They saw hope, the hope of Tianjing Mecha Academy entering the top 16. Bro Hao was too awesome! Huo Ying, the big dark egg, even had sweaty hands. The other teammates were rushing towards the Red Flag base. Currently, Tianjing Mecha Academy had a huge advantage. Of course, all of this still depended on the outcome of Li Hao and Romero's battle. Both of them were capable of a comeback.

Cheng Konghai... felt like he wouldn't be able to reach the Red Flag base before the end of the match. The poor kid was going in the wrong direction. This was also one of the reasons why heavy armor was unpopular.

Sheng Man and Lu Lingxiao were of course very happy, but now was not the time to celebrate. Sheng Man glanced at Tan Ziyuan. This girl's eyes were so gentle, so focused. She really didn't know how she could endure it. These days must be so torturous.

The person she liked was right in front of her, but she couldn't say anything.

Pretending not to see, but looking a thousand times out of the corner of her eye.

On the battlefield, Romero knew that Li Hao was getting impatient. Romero's pupils contracted, his burning will continuing to surge, his Zone value constantly soaring. He was no longer holding back, boom...

Golden Zone Third Stage – Flowing Heart Martial.

Red light permeated his body, and the entire Underworld Fire fighter was burning. The Underworld Blade's light extended even further, becoming more solidified. The director also accurately provided a comparison chart. It was obviously much stronger than when he fought Cheng Konghai. He had been conserving his strength.

At the critical moment of the Wolf Warrior team's life or death, Romero was going to unleash his trump card.

Tap tap tap tap tap tap.

The Underworld Fire fighter charged towards the Black Night saber, boom! Starting with a low-altitude jumping slash, suddenly, the K23 Underworld Blade's flames soared into the sky. The fire of fusion turned the Underworld Blade into a huge Grim Reaper's scythe, slashing down at the Black Night fighter.

Clang!

The Black Night fighter parried. The Blood Moon, also enhanced with K23 elements, didn't need to worry about being cut off, but the fire of fusion directly surrounded the Black Night fighter, the temperature rising sharply, the mecha's surface emitting sizzling sounds.

It was Romero's time to counterattack. The last time, in the EMP battle, Romero had only used the burning will. Now was the time for...

Boom!

The Underworld Fire fighter flew backward for dozens of meters, knocking down more than a dozen giant ferns. The Martian audience, who were just about to get excited, didn't know where to put their hands.

The Black Night saber waved, and the red light shook, the fire of fusion completely dissipating. "Romero, hurry up, I have things to do later."

At another time, Li Hao wouldn't have minded sparring with his old friend, but he had other, equally thorny, tasks.

Romero controlled the Underworld Fire fighter, pushing away the giant ferns on the mecha. The mecha shook and jumped directly, clang clang clang.

"Bro Li, warm up, or how will you use your full strength?" Romero licked his lips, his expression gradually becoming excited. His Zone value increased again. He wanted to stall, to patiently find an opportunity, but he had been seen through.

Flowing Heart Martial directly surrounded and shot out red flames, red lightning entwining. Most of the audience knew Flowing Heart Martial, the strongest currently known state of the Golden Zone.

"Those who can enter the Flowing Heart Martial realm are all top human warriors, but even in this realm, there are more outstanding existences. They are gifted with extraordinary talents, and here they are the king of kings. They will sense the stronger power in their genes, which we call the essence of the soul. Wolf Warrior's king, Flowing Heart Soul Essence!" The Fire Man, who was almost worn out, finally perked up.

"The Soul Essence state of Flowing Heart Martial is also currently the strongest force known to mankind in exploring the Golden Zone. Everyone has their own unique soul power to explore or tend towards, forging Soul Essence with the imagination and desire of the soul. Every Flowing Heart Soul Essence warrior is our strongest human warrior." The Mad Martial Expert also felt the pressure. Although he had absolute confidence in the Puppet God, Soul Essence was indeed the strongest force known to mankind.

Because the above is capped, it is a force that the flesh cannot bear, so every warrior who possesses Soul Essence is top-notch. It depends on whose power essence is more unique and more dominant, who can exert their power. At the same time, people with such power can also explore fields that mortals cannot reach. Possessing Soul Essence means being chosen by heaven.

Li Hao's Black Night saber didn't rush to attack, allowing Romero to display his power. As the powerful force continued to pour out, the K23 Underworld Blade had changed shape, becoming a fluctuating flame state. At the same time, a huge phantom of a fire dragon appeared behind the Underworld Fire fighter.

Flowing Heart Martial – Fire Dragon Soul Essence.

Among the five basic abilities exhibited in the Golden Zone: wind, fire, lightning, and ice, fire is the most offensive.

The surface of the Black Night saber was also shrouded in a layer of red light, resisting the rolling heat waves from the Underworld Fire fighter.

At this moment, Romero's eyes opened, fire bursting forth. This was his peak state. All fear stemmed from insufficient strength, and now, he possessed the power to overcome his inner demons.
