Soul Land 5: The Rebirth of Tang San

Chapter 512: Dragon-Phoenix Pair



Chapter 512: Dragon-Phoenix Pair

Tang San smiled bitterly. "I thought my luck was bad yesterday, but today is even worse!"

He regretted not using his luck enhancement before coming out. This constant misfortune was becoming a problem.

Today\'s opponents were even stronger than the ones he faced yesterday. Yes, even stronger than the Behemoth.

Tang San even suspected that the two in front of him and Mei Gongzi might be the favorites to win this year\'s doubles tournament. After all, the Dragon-Phoenix Pair was one of the top combinations in the entire Empyrean Dominion.

Indeed, the man and woman opposite them were clearly a dragon and a phoenix! The man, based on his aura, was probably a Wind Dragon. The woman was undoubtedly from the lineage of the Immortal Phoenix, a descendant of the Eternal Inferno Undying Demon Emperor.

Although there wasn\'t a Wind Dragon among the Demon Emperors, the top-ranked Crystal Demon Emperor was from the dragon race, which had always been the uncrowned king among the demon races. Throughout the generations, there had always been dragons among the Demon Emperors.

The Undying Demon Emperor needed no introduction, ranking even above the Sky-Splitting Demon Emperor. The title "Eternal Inferno" wasn\'t just for show.

Cheng Zicheng trained daily by climbing the Undying Sacred Mountain, and the female contestant before them was a true Undying Fire Phoenix.

These two, with their top-tier bloodlines, made for a powerful duo. And it wasn\'t even the last match of the group stage! Yet, Tang San and Mei Gongzi encountered them now rather than in the finals.

Tang San even suspected that the tournament organizers didn\'t want humans to advance from the group stage to the finals. In the individual matches, he kept encountering strong opponents, and now in the doubles too. The previous two matches had been relatively easy wins, so what was going on with this one?

"Big Brother, I will give it my all." Mei Gongzi\'s expression was equally serious. She had also identified the opponents. Undoubtedly, this was going to be an extremely challenging match.

At this moment, the two opponents across from them were also looking at them with very serious expressions.

Mei Gongzi was the heir of the Peacock Demon clan, possessing a first-tier bloodline. Her space manipulation had already demonstrated formidable applications in the previous matches. And although Tang San and Mei Gongzi hadn\'t seen their opponents\' matches, this Dragon-Phoenix Pair had watched theirs.

Tang San, needless to say, had just defeated a Behemoth yesterday. It was hard to determine whether a Behemoth was stronger than a dragon or phoenix, given that they were of the same bloodline tier; it mainly depended on individual cultivation. Yet this human had prevailed over an elite among elite Behemoths! How could they not be shocked?

In particular, that palm strike had left a deep impression on them. They definitely wouldn\'t want Tang San to get close.

Thus, when both sides saw their opponents, their expressions became very serious, knowing this match would be tough.

All the audience\'s attention was focused on their match. Although the other two matches were also exciting, they clearly couldn\'t compare to this one.

As Tang San had predicted, this pair had been the favorites since the start of the tournament. Even if they didn’t end up taking the championship, they were certainly expected to advance far into the finals. They were the seeded players in Tang San and Mei Gongzi\'s group.

Tang San and Mei Gongzi were the dark horses, while their opponents were the established powerhouses.

How could such a match not draw attention?

The Peacock Great Demon King sat in the VIP section, silently watching the arena, his expression also serious. If it weren\'t for Asura defeating the Behemoth Beast, he wouldn\'t think his daughter had any chance of winning this match.

He knew very well that this kind of match schedule and draw were far from fair. The Ancestral Court had never shown any goodwill toward the Peacock Demon clan. Otherwise, the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor wouldn\'t have been able to leave Kali City so easily. This time, he brought Mei Gongzi to seize a slim chance, especially after she inherited the ancestral legacy.

If they could get through this match, most of the goals for this trip would be accomplished. But it was up to Asura and Mei Gongzi to see if they could defeat the powerful opponents before them.

Asura, you always manage to do the impossible, right? Let\'s see if you can do it again in this two-on-two match.

At that moment, the referee on the stage announced the start of the match.

Boom!

Green and red lights soared into the sky almost immediately from one side of the arena.

The blinding green light, accompanied by violent wind energy, burst out from the dragon contestant, illuminating half the sky on its side. On the other side, a crimson light surged up like roaring flames. The green and red lights were distinctly separate, each covering dozens of meters around the competitors.

Seeing the sudden burst of power from their opponents, Tang San couldn\'t help but say to Mei Gongzi, "It looks like they\'re quite wary of us!"

Of course they were wary of them—more precisely, wary of Tang San.

In terms of overall combat power, the dragon and phoenix races were generally not inferior to Behemoths, but in terms of defense, these two were definitely not as strong. If even a top Behemoth couldn\'t withstand Tang San\'s palm strike at close range, they certainly wouldn\'t expect themselves to succeed. Especially since Tang San had a teleportation disc; if he teleported close and struck, what could they do?

So from the very start of the match, the two opponents unleashed their powerful bloodline forces, forming a defensive area that also interfered with the space around them, not giving Tang San any chance to get close.

Golden wings spread from Tang San\'s back as he activated the Golden Roc Transformation again. His superb flying skills yesterday had left a deep impression on all the spectators, so when he displayed the Golden Roc Transformation again, it immediately elicited a wave of cheers from the audience.

By continuously defeating powerful opponents, Tang San had already begun to gain his own fans.

Meanwhile, Mei Gongzi\'s black hair turned peacock blue, and a striking golden crown appeared upon her brow. The two exchanged glances, and Tang San took to the sky, with the blazing Lion-Tiger Golden Force bursting forth.

Today, he was at the ninth order!

Although he had said Mei Gongzi would be the main force in the battle, how could he let his beloved bear most of the pressure in the face of such formidable opponents?

Tang San\'s gaze sharpened, and even the Peacock Great Demon King in his VIP seat could sense that today he was noticeably different from yesterday. It wasn\'t just his strength or aura that had changed, but his momentum and mindset.

As Tang San flew into the air, his eyes scanned the audience.

At this moment, the members of the Shrek Squad had just settled in their seats. Cheng Zicheng was intently watching the arena, and when Tang San turned to look at her, she immediately understood it was a signal for her. She clenched her fists tightly in nervous excitement.

Tang San seemed to be telling her, "Watch closely."

After looking in Cheng Zicheng\'s direction, Tang San looked down at Mei Gongzi, and she heard his voice in her ear. She nodded in understanding.

In the next moment, they moved almost simultaneously.

With a flash of silver light, Mei Gongzi\'s figure vanished. Meanwhile, Tang San burst forward at lightning speed, causing the air to explode with a sonic boom.

No creature could compare to the Golden Roc in terms of straight sprint. This was the most potent trait of a peak second-tier bloodline, after all. Although it wasn\'t as instantaneous as teleportation, the sheer speed and momentum could only be described as terrifying.
