The Martial God Festival is quite unique among the three major festivals. It was also created by Hourai Academy, which advocates integration with humanity. Compared to ancient gods like the Dragon God and Tiger God, which can be traced back to tens of millions of years ago, the concept of the Martial God has only existed for a few thousand years and has only recently begun to be accepted by monsters.
The rules stipulate that the winners and losers will be determined by martial arts in human form. Although this competition has limitations, it is not like other competitions that test physical strength or the sharpness of claws and teeth.
But it is fairer. Through this kind of training, even a harmless creature like a rabbit can defeat a lion or tiger.
Moreover, even in limited martial arts competitions, when it comes to a real battle between the strongest, it is just as thrilling and exciting to watch.
At this very moment, the operation to encircle and annihilate the Four Heavenly Kings is being carried out quietly.
This kind of chaotic battle involves powerful monsters, but each fight depletes their stamina. Famous monsters, especially those that are targeted from the start, will be at a disadvantage.
However, on the other hand, this is also an opportunity for them.
The Four Heavenly Kings of the academy represent the first tier, the pinnacle of the academy's students.
The second phase also features many skilled fighters, some of whom have even achieved complete human form. In a one-on-one fight, they are indeed no match for the Four Heavenly Kings. However, if it is a group against one, or a battle of attrition, then the situation is different.
"Muda muda muda!!" Mo Mo laughed, unleashing a series of punches that sent the attacking monsters flying off the platform.
"Momo's self-created fist technique, Rubber Machine Gun!" Momo laughed as she made her arms flexible, transforming them into dozens of fist shadows like springs, sending attacking enemies flying. All the hard training she had undergone during this period would not have been in vain.
"Momo's self-created fist technique, kamehameha!!!" Momo clasped his hands together and released a blue-white light wave, blasting away one enemy after another.
As a genius, she could become stronger every day without exercising. Once she started training hard, the demonic power within her body had grown to the point where she could squander it at will.
"Damn it! The Wolf God Mo Mo is in such a strange state today!" the attacking monsters roared in alarm.
"She's gotten stronger again?!" They used to be able to fight Momo for dozens of rounds, but now they can't even withstand a single move from her.
"I heard she's dueling with Falcon in this match, is it true? Waaah!!" Before the spirit cat demon could finish speaking, she was sent flying.
"That's right! But before we start fighting, we need to get rid of these troublesome guys!" Mo Mo laughed and instantly appeared in front of the enemy, throwing a punch and shouting, "Rock, Paper, Scissors!"
From the beginning, Momo and Shunqing reached a consensus that in order to get a good dueling venue, they should first clear out the other guys on the venue.
"Momo's self-created fist technique, Spirit Orb!" Momo raised her index finger, unleashing a massive beam of light like a shot. Although Momo still hadn't crossed the threshold of combining qi and momentum to materialize it, she had, through cultivation, pushed her innately powerful demonic energy beyond the limits of a demon. In terms of sheer power, she was still comparable to a newly promoted great demon.
"Big sister! That's amazing! Your self-created boxing style is simply invincible!" Wang Zi, standing in the audience, waved her flag vigorously and exclaimed excitedly.
"No..." Qin Jing covered her face, not knowing where to begin. Did she not know that comics were already so developed here?
Just as Mo Mo unleashed his power like a god, charging into the encirclement as if it were empty, constantly knocking away one monster after another.
Meanwhile, the situation on the side of the Sky God Falcon was also quite exaggerated.
In Qin Jing's eyes, this soft and cute older sister, whose personality was completely inconsistent with her figure and who always looked like she hadn't slept enough, was standing two meters above the platform in the air, as if she were standing on a transparent ground.
Chapter 175, Section 108: The Great Melee of the Martial God Festival
At this moment, Falcon Qing stood with both feet in the air, as free and relaxed as if she were taking a stroll in a courtyard. She looked even more relaxed than if she were standing on the ground, as if gravity did not restrict her in any way.
Centered on where she stood, a gust of wind arose, forming a large circle with a radius of nearly three meters. Even though no one could see her making any move, any monster that entered this circle was lifted and slapped by an unseen giant hand, powerless to resist, and flew off the cylindrical platform, falling to the ground ten meters or more outside the arena.
"Haa~!" Hayabusa yawned and walked through the air toward the monsters that were gathered together and fighting. Every time she passed a place, the monsters in that place would be swept away. There were fewer and fewer contestants on the spacious platform.
"What's going on? Is that considered martial arts?" the monsters exclaimed in surprise.
"Amazing! No wonder they are the Four Heavenly Kings, who are considered candidates for great demons! Whether it's Wolf God Momo or Sky Clan's Falcon Qing, they are all too strong!" the demon exclaimed.
"The Sky God is invincible! The Queen will surely win!" The Sky Clan monsters in the stands were all shouting their support.
"Go, big sister!" Wang Zi waved the flag and shouted encouragement.
"Go! Go!" Qin Jing shouted helplessly.
At that moment, a transparent portal appeared behind them, and a figure wearing a trench coat and a hood, concealing his face, walked out, picked up Youyou, and skillfully used a pair of weapons as substitutes, pressing them against Qin Jing's head.
"Xiao Jing, how is it?" the figure asked in a pleasant voice.
"Oh, Master, you're here." Qin Jing didn't need to turn around; just by feeling the touch, she knew it was Master Su Jiu.
"Lord Su Jiu?" The girls recognized the mysterious person only after hearing Qin Jing's words.
At this moment, Su Jiu changed her usual extravagant Hanfu and pulled down her hat to cover the upper half of her face.
"Teacher Su Jiu, you've arrived." Wang Zi bowed politely, holding the flag with both hands, and Jing and the others also bowed in return.
"Relax, don't be shy, I'm here to watch the game too." Su Jiu waved his hand and looked at the field to observe the situation.
"Hmm, right now Mo Mo's side is also completely in favor of her, but with that level of demonic energy, it seems that having you form a contract with her, Xiao Jing, would actually be more beneficial for her," Su Jiu said with a sigh.
"Huh? What's going on?" Qin Jing asked, puzzled.
"Although this isn't necessarily all a good thing," Su Jiu said with a meaningful smile as he surveyed the battlefield and fixed his gaze on Mo Mo.
"Wait, Master, do I have some special ability that can help Sister Momo with her cultivation?" Qin Jing asked curiously.
"Hey? Didn't I tell you before? You have a constitution that's very popular with demons! Cultivating by your side would at least double the effect. You truly deserve to be my disciple, whom I recognized with my discerning eye!" Su Jiu said with a smile, not forgetting to praise himself.
"You never said the rest!" Qin Jing said in a fit of frustration.
"Yeah, it's so comfortable being with Xiaojing!" Youyou said with a big laugh as Su Jiu lifted her up high.
"Well, everyone has a different innate aura. Some people are born to like flowers and plants, some are born to like animals, and you, Xiaojing, are born to be liked by monsters."
Just like plants absorb carbon dioxide and purify the air, Xiaojing, you can purify and refine demonic energy. Simply having you around is beneficial to both body and mind, a great supplement that can improve cultivation efficiency. So, Xiaojing can have no problem holding hands and making friends with any demon at the academy, even the most arrogant great demon won't object," Su Jiu explained.
Qin Jing frowned, her feelings complicated, and said, "So I'm actually Fufu meat, magic candy, and a humanoid double experience pill? That's why my Xiaokui wanted to bite me?"
"Hmm, that's a very interesting analogy, that's exactly it. But wanting to bite you is something only a vampire would do, especially if you're a Kui with strong feelings for someone like me. Everyone at the academy gets along with you quite well, doesn't they?" Su Jiu said with a smile.
"Oh, right! Quite a few big demons have asked me about you. The old monster from the Wolf God Academy even said he wanted you to be his grandson-in-law! That's wonderful! Xiao Jing! You're such a popular person~!" Su Jiu said with a smile, pushing Qin Jing's cheek with her finger.
Qin Jing, whose head was shaken by the push, dared not show any anger and quickly lowered her head to plead, "Master, please be sure to refuse for me!"
"Of course, I didn't intend to agree, just for now. But... if you can't keep your promise to me..." Su Jiu smiled mischievously as he stared at his disciple and agreed.
"I know! I know! Anyway, as long as I'm not Tang Sanzang's flesh, let's not talk about this anymore! Master, you don't have high hopes for my sister, but what exactly is going on with Falcon?" Qin Jing asked, pointing at the blue-haired older sister who seemed to sweep away monsters like a sweeping machine, yawning with her eyes squinted.
"It's waving its arms at a speed that's hard to catch with the naked eye, constantly flapping its arms within that circle. Just with that speed, the wind from its palm strikes is enough to send everything it touches flying," Su Jiubi explained to Qin Jing and the others, watching the wind circle created by the falcon.
"Huh? Lord Su Jiu, can you see this?" Wang Zi asked in surprise.
"Well, it's just the result of combining the abilities of a few of my thousands of tails. There's no move in this world that I can't see through," Su Jiu said with a smug smile, unfolding his fan.
"Is that so?" Qin Jing nodded in agreement. The nine-tailed fox gains different talents and abilities as its tails grow, with each tail representing a different ability.
Nine is the extreme number of Yang, symbolizing nobility. In ancient times, emperors cast nine tripods, the imperial palace administration had nine ministers, the capital city had nine gates, and the vermilion gates of the palace were decorated with nine rows of nails, nine in each direction, to signify the meaning of "nine-nine".
The number nine represents permanence and infinity.
Su Jiu possesses the ability to continuously increase the number of tails through cultivation. To date, he has developed thousands of talents, making him a rather overpowered demon, although some of his abilities are actually quite useless.
"By the way, what's with your outfit?" Qin Jing asked, puzzled, as she finally noticed Su Jiu's attire.
"Besides, I'm quite famous here. If I were to swagger in to this kind of place, it would cause a commotion," Su Jiu said with a hint of helplessness.
"Yes, Lord Su Jiu was elected as a sage by all the demons!" Wang Zi said admiringly.
"Hmm..." Qin Jing narrowed her eyes, thinking, 'I feel like I understand a little better now. That's why Master Su Jiu was so keen on setting him up in entertainment-related incidents. As long as there's an even more famous and eccentric disciple blocking the way, he can comfortably be a carefree fox! Right?!'
"I have to go now, so I'll take Youyou with me." Su Jiu said, indicating that he had no intention of reading minds, and then, carrying Youyou, he slipped into the spatial portal and made a quick getaway.
While Qin Jing and the others were talking, the monsters on the platform were being eliminated one after another, and now there were very few left. Those who remained were the true powerhouses of the academy.
A tall, thin man with long brown hair was seen, his five fingers pressed together like a sharp sword, stabbing at a two-meter-tall man with a protruding belly and his whole body covered in fat.
Blood spurted out, and the burly man collapsed to the ground, wounds from being stabbed by a sharp weapon.
The man was surrounded only by wounded people lying in pools of blood. He had no more opponents, so he turned his attention to the yawning Falcon Qing standing in the air.
"That's awesome! Senior Antelope Sword!" The antelope monster, leopard monster, and ostrich monster from the track and field team cheered loudly for him.
This man, who had completely transformed into human form and concealed his demonic aura within his body, making him unrecognizable even to Qin Jing's eyes, was actually the head of the middle school district's track and field club, a antelope demon named Antelope Sword with sharp, slender horns.
On the other side, a woman with blue hair tied in three braids grabbed a three-meter-tall elephant demon and hurled it at her surrounding opponents, finally tossing the demon into the air, where it fell off the platform. She smiled contentedly, revealing a row of gleaming white triangular teeth.
He beckoned to Momo, who was watching from a distance, signaling him to come at him.
Upon seeing this woman, the whale beside Qin Jing suddenly trembled twice.
"What's wrong? Whale? Do you know that blue-haired guy?" Qin Jing noticed Whale's unusual behavior and asked with concern.
"No, it's nothing." The whale turned its head away.
It didn't seem like a nonchalant reaction, but since Jing didn't want to talk about it, Qin Jing wouldn't force her.
Section 176, Page 109: The Final Four Showdown
At this moment, only four contestants remain standing on the huge, spacious cylindrical platform.
The crowd in the arena roared with deafening cheers, shouting encouragement for their favorite warriors and applauding the strong who remained on the field in this chaotic battle of thousands.
"The real battle is finally about to begin!" an excited spectator shouted.
"Whoa whoa whoa!!!" Thousands of hands in the audience were raised high and waved vigorously.
On the field, the tall and outstanding girl with long blue hair was not affected by the grim atmosphere of the battlefield at all. She squinted her eyes as if she hadn't woken up yet, and her long legs stood steadily in the air, walking freely as if she were walking on the ground.
The girl with long, black hair stood there with her arms crossed, her eyebrows arched and her eyes bright. The light in her eyes was as sharp as a blade. Although she was a beautiful and lovely young girl, she had a majestic and imposing aura about her.
The blue-haired girl had a carefree smile on her lips. She was slender with a slim waist and long legs, and apart from her captivating chest, she had no excess fat on her body. She rolled up her sleeves to reveal her fair arms, her hands long and slender like jade, and her long hair fell down her back and was tied into a long three-strand braid.
The long-haired, square-faced man maintained a serious expression, his fingertips tightly clenched, his entire being like a drawn sword pointing directly at Falcon Forest as he strode towards her. His speed, characteristic of his athletic clan, was pushed to its limits.
"Oh, let me go? How interesting!" Momo looked at the blue-haired girl who was provoking him and sensed a kindred spirit in her.
Her hair was a clear, ocean-like blue, with a three-strand braid swaying gently behind her. Her eyes were fierce and cold, and a mischievous smile played on her lips. Judging from her demeanor, one could tell that she was a guy who enjoyed fighting and was fearless.
"Hahaha! Heavenly King! Or Martial God? I have no interest in any of that! Let's fight to our hearts' content!" The blue-haired girl laughed loudly, revealing her serrated teeth.
"If you want to fight, then fight!" Mo Mo gathered his demonic energy, which emitted a silver light on his body, and instantly appeared in front of the sharp-toothed blue-haired girl, throwing a heavy punch at her.
"So sweet! Hahaha!!" The blue-haired girl's whole body instantly turned red. She twisted her slender waist, dodged the fist, turned her back to Momo, grabbed Momo's arm that hadn't been able to retract its punch, and used the force to throw Momo to the ground with an over-the-shoulder throw.
Momo's back slammed hard against the stone floor, shattering under the immense force of the blue-haired girl, who could lift an elephant with one hand.
The audience, who could clearly see this scene on the big screen, roared again.
"Ooh ooh ooh!! That wolf god Momo has been knocked down!"
"Who is that blue-haired girl? She's amazing!"
"Our sea princess is the strongest! All the sea monsters are trash!" A group of fish-faced monsters, or monsters with scales showing on their skin, roared excitedly.
Blue Shark said to the fallen Momo, "Hey, Wolf God Momo, come again! I know this level isn't enough to hurt you yet."
"Hmph~! You're quite interesting. You're full of madness, yet your moves are surprisingly calm. How strange, I've never heard of you before." Hearing the voice, Momo indeed stood up from the ground and casually dusted off his sailor uniform.
The moment Momo was thrown to the ground, she reacted and prepared herself for the impact. Although the impact was huge, the damage was actually negligible for someone with strong muscle tissue.
"Mermaid Jujutsu Gym! Sea Clan! Blue Shark, nice to meet you!" The blue-haired girl smiled, revealing her sharp teeth, and greeted the girl with a fist and palm salute.
"Wolf God Martial Arts Academy, Wolf God Momo! Night Road Dead Bones!" After returning the greeting with clasped hands, Momo took a step and rushed towards the blue-haired girl like an arrow.
"It'll be the same no matter how many times you do it!" The blue-haired girl used her supple and flexible body to dodge Momo's attacks from all sorts of strange angles, and then launched a counterattack.
Jiu-Jitsu is a martial art that uses softness to overcome hardness, primarily employing grappling and joint locks. Mermaid Jiu-Jitsu was developed based on this principle, a powerful martial art capable of fighting giant deep-sea monsters. In competitions like the Martial God Festival, where victory is determined by transformation, its advantages become even more pronounced, allowing it to fearlessly engage in close combat with any monster.
"Stop dodging around! It's so annoying!" Mo Mo was enraged. He glared angrily, his body erupting with immense demonic energy. He furiously unleashed one heavy punch after another at the blue-haired girl. This time, Mo Mo's punches were unstoppable.
"Whoa, if that punch lands, I'm done for." Blue Shark didn't dare to retaliate, but instead focused on dodging, skillfully avoiding punch after punch.
Momo's all-out attack was too powerful. Even though it was dodged, the force caused it to slam into the ground, releasing a strong shockwave that created numerous craters on the platform.
Even so, the blue-haired girl managed to evade her every move, leaving them helpless.
"Hahaha! No matter how strong the attack is, it's useless if it can't hit!" Blue Shark laughed, revealing its sharp teeth.
"No! That's enough." This is what Momo said with a smile as he came to his senses.
Seeing Momo's confident smile, the blue-haired girl, Lan Huasha, was initially confused and didn't understand what was going on. Then, she suddenly felt a rustling sound coming from the ground.
"Hey! What's going on?" Blue Shark opened her sharp-toothed mouth and realized that she was standing on the edge of a platform surrounded by pits and was sinking deeper and deeper.
Momo stomped heavily on the floor, and the pit creaked and groaned as it slowly cracked open, detaching itself from the cylindrical platform and plummeting to the ground more than ten meters below.
"Hey?" Blue Shark was about to jump up when she found that Momo was already waiting for her there. As long as she dared to jump, that devastating punch would land on her.
"Sorry! I have an important battle coming up and can't keep going like this, so I've decided to just get rid of you. Next time, I'll definitely fight you seriously, no matter how many times!" Momo said apologetically, clasping his hands together.
"Hey, that's just destroying the arena, that's too much of a foul," Blue Shark sighed with a wry smile, before falling down with the cracked floor.
"Wolf God Momo! Don't forget what you promised!!!" The blue-haired girl shouted as she fell down a shattered corner of the platform.
