Chapter 121: Looking for you to learn how to be domineering?
Under Sandasonia's careful arrangements, Ma Xiaotao was quickly arranged to appear on the stage without going through too many tedious procedures.
Her heart was filled with tension and expectation, and the surrounding environment made her feel both strange and excited.
The sunlight shines on the ground through the towering trees. Ma Xiaotao finds it strange that this city is built in the forest.
Especially the arena below.
The breeze blows gently, bringing a breath of freshness.
She took a deep breath, trying to stay calm and prepare for the upcoming challenge.
Ma Xiaotao's first opponent was a female warrior from Nine Snakes Island named Kuya.
She is tall, muscular, and exudes a strong sense of confidence.
Her eyes were as sharp as a hawk, exuding an aura that should not be underestimated.
Kuya was wearing a light combat uniform, and the material shone slightly in the sun, showing her extraordinary combat power. Ma Xiaotao thought to herself that the opponent in front of her was definitely not a kind person.
"Hello, outsider, my name is Kuya, what is your name?"
Kuya's voice was clear and contagious, with a friendly smile on his face, as if he was full of curiosity about this strange opponent.
Ma Xiaotao was slightly startled, not expecting Kuya to take the initiative to say hello.
She originally thought she would face a ruthless warrior, but the Kuya in front of her seemed so kind.
"Hello, Kuya, my name is Ma Xiaotao."
Kuya's smile became even brighter, with a searching light shining in his eyes.
"Ma Xiaotao, what an interesting name! Where do you come from?"
Her tone was relaxed and casual, as if she were chatting with an old friend.
"I come from a far away place, you probably don't know me."
Ma Xiaotaonu smiled.
"Oh, that's it."
Kuya smiled slightly, his eyes shining with anticipation.
Her eyes were locked on Ma Xiaotao, and she noticed that the other person's body was shaking slightly, and she couldn't help but feel a little confused.
Could it be that Ma Xiaotao was so uneasy because of nervousness?
Kuya thought to herself, but her smile became gentler.
"Don't worry, I won't let you go easily, but I won't let you get hurt either."
Kuya's voice was as warm as the spring breeze, with a hint of kindness and understanding.
She knew that when facing battle, even the strongest warrior would feel a little nervous and uneasy.
She hoped that Ma Xiaotao could put aside her worries and show her strength to the fullest.
"oh?"
Ma Xiaotao raised her eyebrows slightly, and a confident smile appeared on her lips.
"You must have misunderstood. I am not nervous, but excited about the battle!"
After saying that, her aura changed instantly, like a phoenix about to spread its wings, soaring into the sky.
At this moment, Ma Xiaotao's spirit possession was completed, and the scorching phoenix fire enveloped her body like a raging flame. The entire duel arena instantly turned into a furnace of flames. The temperature suddenly rose, and a wave of smoke filled the air. Fiery breath.
The audience couldn't help but hold their breath, and their eyes shone with surprise and reverence.
"Ma Xiaotao?"
There was a hint of disbelief in Kuya's voice.
"Are you so strong?"
Her face was full of surprise and she was secretly amazed.
As a female warrior who has always dominated the gladiatorial arena, Kuya has always been eager to compete with powerful enemies. However, the majesty of the empress prevents her from easily challenging.
It had been a long time since she had encountered an evenly matched opponent in this arena, and the Ma Xiaotao in front of her seemed to show her the long-lost fighting passion.
As Ma Xiaotao's Phoenix Fire intensified, Kuya felt a long-lost excitement, as if he was also infected by that enthusiasm.
Her heartbeat began to accelerate, and the blood in her body was completely ignited at this moment.
She knew that today's battle would be a rare opportunity, an opportunity for her to go all out to see the world and her powerful peers.
"Come on, Ma Xiaotao!"
Kuya's voice was as loud as a war drum, and his eyes flashed with the flame of challenge, as if calling for a response from the other party.
Her body leaned forward slightly, exuding a strong aura that shook the air around her.
At this moment, the atmosphere of the entire arena seemed to freeze, and the audience's heartbeats accelerated with every move she made.
Ma Xiaotao stood opposite, with a fire already burning in her heart. She took a deep breath and felt the power surging inside her body.
As she slowly raised her palm, the palm of her hand shone with light like cherry blossoms. It was a high-level weapon-colored domineering technique - flowing cherry blossoms.
The brilliance of the flowing cherry blossoms bloomed in her palm, as if countless petals were flying in the air, both beautiful and deadly.
Her aura also increased instantly at this moment, like a blooming cherry blossom, gorgeous and full of power, which was awe-inspiring.
The eyes of the two strong men met in the air, and the air was filled with a tense and fierce atmosphere, as if time had stopped at this moment.
Ma Xiaotao's heart was beating like thunder, and countless training scenes flashed through her mind. They were the sweat and efforts she had put in for today's battle.
She knew that this was not only a battle, but also a proof of her strength.
At this moment, Ma Xiaotao's body was like a flaming phoenix, rushing towards Kuya.
Her legs cut through the air like flames, and the surging ultimate fire carried the terrifying power of burning everything, as if the whole world was reduced to ashes under her feet.
Her control was extremely precise. Under her guidance, the flames flew towards Kuya like a nimble phoenix of fire, with unparalleled power and beauty.
Kuya was solemn and alert in the face of such an attack.
She knew that Ma Xiaotao's flames were not only dazzling on the surface, but also contained great destructive power.
In order to deal with this sudden attack, Kuya quickly adjusted her posture, covered with her long legs of armed color domineering, ready to meet this wave of fierce impact.
"Come on!"
She silently chanted in her heart, her eyes were like torches, locking onto Ma Xiaotao's figure.
At the moment when the two were about to collide, Kuya's whip kick swung out like lightning and kicked the fire phoenix fiercely.
At that moment, time seemed to stand still, and the audience held their breath and stared closely at the impending collision.
With a loud bang, the whip kick and the fire phoenix collided with each other, and a terrifying heat wave swept over, like a small volcanic eruption.
The strong shock wave caused the stands of the arena to shake violently. The Amazon female warriors around them covered their faces with their hands, feeling the burning sensation of the heat wave, and their skin seemed to be burned.
Their hearts were filled with surprise and awe, and they were secretly glad that they did not participate in this fierce battle.
On the other side of the arena, Huo Yuhao was anxious.
He naturally did not want to see such a thing happen, and was worried that the confrontation between the two strong men would cause irreversible consequences.
A strong desire to protect surged in his heart, and he must not let anyone get hurt.
So, he waved his hand decisively, mobilized the power in his body, and summoned a protective shield composed of pure ice crystals to cover the entire arena.
The ice crystal protective shield was like a transparent barrier, instantly isolating the heat wave from the outside, which made people feel relieved.
At this time, the audience's eyes turned from the battle to Huo Yuhao, and they had a new admiration for his ability in their hearts.
But more of them were confused.
"Is this the man from outside?"
"He is really strong."
Most of them thought this at this time.
This protective shield not only effectively blocked the threat of the heat wave, but was also transparent and would not affect the visual experience. It was a perfect response.
Under the protection of the protective shield, Kuya and Ma Xiaotao remained highly vigilant. The atmosphere between them was like a taut string that could be stretched to the limit at any time.
The surrounding environment was suffocatingly quiet, with only the wind blowing gently, bringing a sense of uneasiness.
They all knew that this battle had just begun.
But Huo Yuhao looked at Hancock on the stage and still planned to let Ma Xiaotao fight quickly.
"Sister Xiaotao, stop playing, let's fight quickly."
Huo Yuhao's voice was particularly clear in this heavy atmosphere, and his tone was full of anxiety and determination.
Ma Xiaotao curled her lips, and a hint of dissatisfaction flashed in her eyes.
Her personality has always been lively, and she likes to find fun in battle, but today's battle made her feel a little depressed.
"Yuhao is really something. He said I could have fun today, but he's already urged me to have more fun just now."
She responded in a relaxed manner, but a smile rose unconsciously at the corner of her mouth.
But when she turned her head and looked at Kuya who was ready for battle, her eyes revealed a trace of seriousness.
"Sorry, Kuya, I may have to finish the battle soon."
Ma Xiaotao's voice lowered, with a bit of apology.
Although neither she nor Kuya had a good time in the battle just now.
But now that Huo Yuhao had said so, she would naturally not drag it on any longer.
"It may be a little painful next, you have to bear it!"
Ma Xiaotao smiled slightly, trying to relieve Kuya's pressure with this relaxed tone.
However, Kuya's eyes were still firm, as if he was ready for the battle.
"Sixth soul skill, Phoenix Meteor Shower!"
As Ma Xiaotao's voice fell, a hot breath instantly filled the air.
The black soul ring under her body began to flicker, as if responding to her call, and the surrounding space also twisted.
Above the sky, the flame magic circle slowly unfolded, emitting dazzling light, as if foreshadowing a grand feast is coming.
Large pieces of meteors fell, like a cluster of stars flickering, breaking the originally peaceful sky.
Each meteor carried a scorching flame, like a phoenix spreading its wings, pouring down, bringing the power of destruction.
Kuya's heart couldn't help but tighten, she knew that this was not an ordinary attack, but a performance of Ma Xiaotao's all-out effort.
At this moment, the meteor shower fell like a downpour, the bright light cut through the night sky, and the burning breath in the air was as hot as a flame, indicating the horror of this move.
Each meteor was like a burning flame, carrying an extremely powerful force, as if announcing some irreversible fate.
A strong sense of crisis surged in Kuya's heart, she knew that this move was by no means ordinary.
Kuya's figure flickered constantly under the attack of the flaming meteor shower, like a nimble cheetah, struggling to avoid every falling meteor.
Her heartbeat was as rapid as thunder, beads of sweat oozed from her forehead, and her muscles were tense, ready to meet the next challenge at any time.
At this moment, countless thoughts flashed through her mind, and her thoughts surged like a tide. Only one belief supported her - she must not be knocked down!
However, despite all the efforts, a bright phoenix meteor fell straight towards her, as if it was an arrangement of God's will that she could not avoid.
Kuya's heart suddenly sank, and the world in front of him seemed to stop for an instant.
The meteor was like a phoenix with its wings spread out, approaching her with incomparable power. A feeling of powerlessness arose in her heart, but was quickly replaced by anger and determination.
"Never lose!"
She screamed in her heart.
In an instant, her body was covered in armed domineering energy, like a layer of indestructible armor.
Kuya took a deep breath, gathered all his strength, and kicked out suddenly, hitting the Phoenix meteor in the middle.
With a loud noise, the meteor exploded instantly, bursting into flames like fireworks, lighting up the entire night sky.
However, under this powerful counter-shock force, Kuya was also knocked away. His body drew a graceful arc in the air, and finally fell heavily to the ground, with dust flying into the air.
"Is Ma Xiaotao actually so powerful?"
Ku Ya couldn't help but feel a bit of shock. High in the sky in front of her, Ma Xiaotao was like a phoenix goddess, clad in the glory of flames, with a calm demeanor and a rainbow-like momentum.
Her figure shines in the starry sky, as if the entire sun's rays are focused on her.
Kuya's eyes were involuntarily attracted, and a sense of awe and envy inevitably arose in his heart.
At this time, Ma Xiaotao had a faint smile on her face.
"What kind of devil fruit power do you have?"
Kuya asked as he stood up with difficulty.
Although it was hard for her to accept being defeated so simply.
But a defeat is a defeat, and Kuya will naturally not defend himself.
But at this moment, she was really curious about the power Ma Xiaotao had just used.
Because there seems to be no Devil Fruit that matches this form of power in her memory.
In particular, Ma Xiaotao has never even used the power of domineering on the battlefield.
"ah?"
Ma Xiaotao didn't react when she suddenly heard the word devil fruit. Then she remembered that devil fruit is a unique power system in this world.
"This is not the power of a devil fruit!"
"This is the power of my martial spirit!"
Ma Xiaotao said and was about to leave the ring.
"Martial spirit?"
Some people didn't understand what Wuhun was, but out of appreciation for the battle just now, Kuya reminded Ma Xiaotao.
"Although the power of your martial spirit is very strange, for a strong person standing at the top, the power of domineering power cannot be ignored."
"You can also come to me if you want to learn Haki."
Kuya said with a serious look on his face.
"Learning domineering?"
"I don't need anyone to teach me." (End of chapter)
