Jiang Yunzhou would naturally not be presumptuous.
Instead of passively responding to attacks, it's better to take the initiative!
He made a grasping motion with his right hand, and his soul power surged, causing a jade-green longsword to quickly condense and take shape in his hand.
The hilt, blade, and sharp tip of the sword gradually become solid and clear, emitting a faint glow in the dim alley, making it particularly eye-catching.
Tang Hao had considered that this young man would not surrender easily, but he did not expect that the other party would dare to be so decisive in drawing his sword first!
At the same time, his intuition that "this kid is definitely not simple" became even stronger.
Unbeknownst to anyone, the mighty Haotian Hammer, which had shaken the continent, had quietly appeared in Tang Hao's hands, its dark shaft radiating a chilling aura of power.
The two seemed to be in perfect sync, not wanting to cause too much of a commotion in the city and attract unnecessary trouble.
And so, in the next instant, they clashed in close combat!
A deep, powerful sound exploded in the alley!
Jiang Yunzhou's martial soul granted him a sevenfold combat power boost, which was fully revealed in this straightforward and unpretentious clash!
With a single strike, the two figures separated instantly, having already exchanged positions.
Jiang Yunzhou's hand holding the sword trembled slightly, and a tingling sensation came from the tiger's mouth.
Meanwhile, Tang Hao's arm, which was gripping the Clear Sky Hammer, was trembling uncontrollably.
Jiang Yunzhou grinned, feeling much more confident: He had a good chance! It seemed that this Title Douluo was not invincible to him, even with his current strength!
Tang Hao was inwardly shocked and incredulous!
How could such a young boy possess such formidable physical strength and power in a fight?
Just now, he almost thought he was exchanging blows with a Soul Master of the same level!
The style of the next battle changed abruptly, resembling the intense close-quarters combat in a certain action movie!
The two tacitly refrained from using their soul skills, relying solely on their physical attributes, combat instincts, and exquisite techniques to fiercely clash within a small space.
Fist, foot, elbow, knee, sword spine, hammer handle...
Every part of their bodies became a weapon, and the sounds of collisions and wind being cut were incessant.
If soul skills were used, this alley and even the surrounding buildings would probably have been razed to the ground long ago.
Just as the two were locked in a fierce battle, a series of hurried footsteps and a somewhat familiar female voice suddenly came from the alley entrance: "Soul Master! It's this way! I just saw people fighting here, and it looks like someone's going to die!"
Jiang Yunzhou and Tang Hao both paused in their movements.
Tang Hao glared fiercely at Jiang Yunzhou, quickly wiping away a trace of blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes filled with resentment and anger.
He never expected that he would suffer a loss at the hands of a junior.
Jiang Yunzhou grinned at him, revealing a set of white teeth, looking quite smug.
In the previous exchange, he clearly had the upper hand with his younger body and agile movements, always managing to avoid Tang Hao's powerful attacks and make many of them miss their mark.
"What are you looking at? If you're not satisfied, come at me again! Next time you come to me, remember to bring money!" Jiang Yunzhou lowered his voice, deliberately trying to provoke him.
Damn it, during the fight just now, he had secretly searched Tang Hao's body thoroughly, but he couldn't find a single copper coin!
It's alright, we'll settle this score with that kid from Tangshan later!
It is only natural that children should pay for their parents' debts!
Tang Hao snorted coldly, and with a flicker of his figure, he disappeared into the shadows deeper into the alley like a ghost.
But anyone could tell from his departing figure that he was harboring a burning rage.
Only then did Jiang Yunzhou look up at the alley entrance.
The pretty purple-haired receptionist was seen leading several uniformed city-guarding soul masters in a hurry.
"How could it be her?" Jiang Yunzhou was slightly surprised.
It turned out that the receptionist was very observant and noticed that Jiang Yunzhou and another mysterious person left the Soul Arena one after the other with strange expressions.
Already infatuated with Jiang Yunzhou, she was worried that something might happen to him, so she secretly followed him and happened to see the two fighting in the alley.
Fearing that Jiang Yunzhou's handsome face would be damaged, she immediately ran back to find the city's guardian spirit masters who were patrolling nearby.
The soul masters guarding the city saw Tang Hao's retreating figure and instinctively assumed that Tang Hao, who was 'running away in a guilty conscience,' was the one who had provoked the trouble.
Jiang Yunzhou briefly recounted how he was 'followed by unknown individuals and lured here to be attacked,' and then easily escaped.
"How did you get here? And how did you know I was here?"
Jiang Yunzhou looked at the receptionist in front of him, whose cheeks were flushed from running and whose eyes were full of concern, and felt a little complicated.
"Huh? I...I was just passing by! I only saw you by accident!"
The receptionist quickly waved her hands, her face turning even redder, and nervously explained, "I absolutely did not follow you! It was just a coincidence! It was definitely a coincidence!"
Seeing her nervous expression, Jiang Yunzhou even felt like laughing.
The receptionist mustered her courage, stepped forward, and carefully raised her hand, intending to use her sleeve to wipe away the dust and sweat stains on Jiang Yunzhou's forehead.
Jiang Yunzhou instinctively wanted to dodge, but seeing the other person's slightly timid yet concerned gaze, he acquiesced to this somewhat intimate gesture.
"Actually, there's no need to explain."
Jiang Yunzhou's tone softened, "However, I still want to thank you."
Chapter 39 Let's go, I'll treat you to a late-night snack.
“N-Never mind!”
Seeing that Jiang Yunzhou didn't object, the receptionist's eyes lit up. "Does he need treatment? I know a very powerful healing-type Soul Master..."
Jiang Yunzhou quickly waved his hand: "I'm not the one who's at a disadvantage. Do I look like I'm in trouble?"
He wasn't seriously injured; he hadn't held back at all, and even seemed to enjoy the fight.
The thought that 'the titled fighting girl is nothing special' popped into her mind.
However, based on his understanding of Tang Hao's character, he was afraid this matter wouldn't end there, and that cunning old man would definitely come looking for trouble again.
What he didn't know was that if Jiang Yunzhou used his soul skill, that would be Tang Hao's real nightmare.
"Is that so? That's good..."
The receptionist patted her chest, causing the headlights to sway, which was quite eye-catching.
Jiang Yunzhou was momentarily lost in thought, which she noticed.
The receptionist straightened her back subtly, making her appear even more alluring.
The infatuated expression on her face returned, and she asked with great concern, "Do you want me to take you home?"
This left Jiang Yunzhou momentarily at a loss as to how to respond to this excessive enthusiasm.
"No,"
He shook his head. "My two apprentices are still in the arena. Sigh, so much time has passed; their matches might already be over. My bets..."
Thinking that he had missed the best opportunity to bet and make a fortune, his anger flared up again.
"Damn it, that son of a bitch Tang Hao, he made me lose so much money..."
He cursed inwardly, "Just you wait! If you dare to come without money again next time we meet, you can forget about your right leg!"
Tang Hao, who was already several streets away, suddenly felt a chill and even felt a faint phantom pain in his right leg.
His face was terribly gloomy. He never expected that he would run into such a tough nut to crack, strong and reckless!
Fortunately, he never revealed his identity, so the other party probably didn't know that Tangshan was his son; otherwise, it would have been terrible if they had gone to cause trouble for Tangshan.
The thought of revenge swirled in his mind, and a shadowy glint flashed in his eyes.
If we can't directly solve the problem of Jiang Yunzhou, perhaps we can only start with that disobedient little rabbit.
Raising a 100,000-year-old soul beast was not a difficult task for him.
Finally, at the strong insistence of the receptionist, Jiang Yunzhou was 'helped' back to the Soul Arena.
Jiang Yunzhou certainly wouldn't object; this young lady had already secretly touched his abs nine times and his pecs ten times.
He was very generous and considerate of the young lady's feelings, so he didn't expose her.
The receptionist seemed quite satisfied, and in return, he would occasionally offer her a soft, warm hug.
Actually, the receptionist hadn't left work yet, but she was in such a hurry that she didn't have time to think about anything else.
She then returned to the front desk and continued working.
Jiang Yunzhou said goodbye to her and went to the competition venue.
He thought to himself: Tang Hao moving from the shadows to the light might not be a bad thing.
It's always better to deal with yourself than to hide in the shadows and plot how to get back at yourself.
As soon as I stepped into the bustling arena tunnel, three figures rushed over at top speed, accompanied by a fragrant breeze.
It was Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, and Xiao Wu.
Before Ning Rongrong even arrived, her clear, slightly anxious voice preceded her: "Teacher! Where have you been? Did you miss our competition?"
Xiao Wu also pouted, her big eyes filled with grievance, looking at Jiang Yunzhou accusingly.
Zhu Zhuqing has always been more meticulous and composed than the other two.
She noticed that Jiang Yunzhou's hairstyle was somewhat messy, and there was some dust and stains on his collar and cuffs.
Yes, there are a few other damaged areas.
These are clearly traces of hasty tidying up after someone had done something to them.
She immediately stepped forward, her tone clearly concerned: "Teacher, are you alright? Did something happen just now? Are you hurt?"
These words made Jiang Yunzhou take another look at Zhu Zhuqing.
This girl has incredibly keen observation skills. Even though I had already taken precautions, she still managed to spot the clues.
Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu were also stunned when they heard this. They immediately realized that the teacher had not left without reason, but had gone out to fight.
"Waaaaah~ Teacher, I'm so sorry!"
