Chapter 186: Stubborn Huo Wu
“Still not admitting defeat? What are you waiting for?”
A cold shout came from high in the air, and that mass of flame charged over once again.
“Absolutely impossible, we won’t admit defeat!”
The stubborn Huo Wu was still struggling to hold on, while Huo Wushuang and the others had long since harbored thoughts of retreating.
If they continued to maintain this like this, once the flame lost control, it would absolutely be a devastating blow to them.
Huo Wu’s Soul Power was destined to be unable to compare to Ling Mo’s; persisting like this would undoubtedly lead to defeat.
Unfortunately… they could no longer stop it; the flame’s intensity was too high, exceeding their range of understanding.
At this moment on the high platform, several big shots were watching this Fighting Soul Competition; in the entire venue… only they could see the situation inside.
“Your Majesty, this Fighting Soul… seems to have entered an uncontrollable situation. How about calling it to a stop here?”
Even Ning Fengzhi was somewhat worried; once the flame lost control, the situation would become impossible to control again.
“Sect Master Ning, Fighting Soul Competitions inherently involve uncontrollable factors; this is unavoidable. Forcibly intervening—could that be breaking the rules?”
The one happiest about this situation was undoubtedly Salas, and of course, there was another person: Hu Yan Zhen.
As for Xue Ye and Xue Xing! They too seemed to be looking forward to it: Ling Mo and Blazing Fire Academy both suffering losses would be best… if only some accident occurred.
Through these past few days of Fighting Soul Competitions, the shock Ling Mo had given them was truly too great; for a genius with such potential, since he couldn’t be won over for their use, the best method was to destroy him.
It was now clear that Ling Mo came from Ghost Gate.
Therefore… Xue Ye no longer had any intention of pulling him in; the best method was to destroy him.
Xue Ye said nothing and slowly closed his eyes, pretending not to hear.
Ning Fengzhi, meanwhile, looked toward Dugu Bo; seeing these people speaking in sarcastic tones, it was clear they wanted to destroy these children.
Ning Fengzhi had no choice but to look directly at Dugu Bo, who had thought he would be more reliable, yet he was calmer than anyone.
This left Ning Fengzhi even more baffled! What was this?
It was one thing for the others not to care, but you, Dugu Bo, were actually this calm too?
You’re at least an elder of Ghost Gate!
“Uncle Gu, if the situation turns bad in a moment, first rescue Xiao Mo…”
Seeing that Dugu Bo couldn’t be relied upon, Ning Fengzhi quietly said this in Gu Rong’s ear.
Nowadays, Ling Mo was the publicly acknowledged son-in-law of their Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School; if he accidentally died here, Rongrong would definitely be heartbroken.
“Understood!”
Gu Rong was already prepared to rescue him at any moment, yet he hadn’t expected… to be noticed by the sharp-eyed Salas.
He said nothing, instead revealing a cold smile!
In his heart, he had already secretly decided that when Gu Rong made his move in a moment, even if it meant being seriously injured by him, he would block him for a moment.
Thinking this, Salas didn’t forget to exchange glances with Hu Yan Zhen beside him; the two reached a consensus.
At this moment in the Fighting Soul Platform.
That mass of flame grew larger and larger; after more than ten rounds of back and forth, it completely exceeded the controllable range.
The flame was so vast that it directly engulfed the entire Fighting Soul Platform…
“Xiao San, take them down first…”
Seeing the firelight growing larger, Ling Mo was cautious, fearing he might injure the others, and directly told Tang San to take everyone off the Fighting Soul Platform first.
“Be careful on your own!”
After Tang San spoke, he directly took everyone away, stepping down from the Fighting Soul Platform first.
He had absolute trust in Ling Mo and wasn’t worried that anything would happen to Ling Mo after they left the platform.
“Bro, take them down…”
Seeing Tang San and the others retreat, Huo Wu knew her Soul Power was about to be exhausted; to avoid unnecessary casualties, she directly shouted for Huo Wushuang and the others to leave the platform.
She was going to gamble!
Betting that Ling Mo using Resist Fire Ring would consume more than her!
Huo Wushuang was still hesitating, but the teammates behind him had already run off without him needing to call them.
“Little sister, be careful. If it really doesn’t work, just admit defeat…”
“No, I absolutely won’t admit defeat…”
Huo Wu refused without hesitation, dead set on clashing with Ling Mo to the end.
Seeing his persuasion ineffective, Huo Wushuang had no choice but to step down first.
After everyone left, only Ling Mo and Huo Wu remained in the entire sea of fire!
With one wave of backlash, the flame expanded fully twice over, directly enveloping the entire Fighting Soul Platform.
At this moment, no one, whoever they were, could see your situation clearly anymore.
Surrounded by flames all over his body, the scorching heat transmitting over, even Ling Mo wasn’t feeling great.
And Huo Wu’s expression was even more pained.
Her clothes seemed to faintly show signs of being burned away, revealing that flawless white skin.
It had to be said that Huo Wu was very beautiful; her figure was somewhat similar to Xiao Wu’s, with dark red wavy long hair hanging down to her waist.
Her fair face, delicate features, and a pair of large eyes flickering with faint silver light.
If ranking the beauties among this competition’s participants, this girl would absolutely be in the top five.
Her beauty was a very fiery kind! The intuitive sensation came even more directly.
“You still won’t surrender?”
Ling Mo was extremely depressed; this Huo Wu was far too stubborn. Among the people Ling Mo had encountered, only Zhu Zhuqing could match her.
Back then, Ling Mo had teased Zhu Zhuqing outside Suotuo City, but who knew she would chase him relentlessly for a full day and night, absolutely refusing to let him go.
In the end, Ling Mo was still caught by her and pressed to Shrek Academy.
Not to mention it, her persistence was truly admirable.
“Absolutely impossible, I won’t admit defeat!”
Huo Wu shouted angrily and once again pushed the flame back.
Ling Mo smoothly received it, deploying Resist Fire Ring once more and pushing it back again.
To be honest, for Huo Wu to compete in Soul Power with Ling Mo was truly a foolish move.
She probably still didn’t know even now why exactly Ling Mo could deploy Resist Fire Ring.
She believed Ling Mo was using some special method to deploy it, so… she wanted to gamble with Ling Mo.
Betting that this special method Ling Mo was using consumed a great deal of Soul Power.
It had to be said, her idea was indeed good, but unfortunately… it was doomed to fail.
“If you keep this up, you’ll die! You really aren’t afraid?”
Even Ling Mo was convinced by Huo Wu’s stubbornness; he was completely out of ideas.
“Cut the crap; even if I die, I’ll drag someone down with me…”
Huo Wu showed no sign of retreat.
“Damn, even if you like me, there’s no need for this, right? Wouldn’t it be good to be a loving couple? No need to be desperate lovebirds…”
Ling Mo was instantly amused with anger; this girl’s temperament was too stubborn.
“Pah! Me, like you? In your dreams… The people who like me could line up down a street in Heaven Dou City. Don’t flatter yourself…”
Pushing the flame back once more, Huo Wu was clearly struggling to hold on.
Her Soul Power was gradually depleting, and now in the arena, heading outward, there were only the two of them, no one else.
Once the flame lost control, both of them could instantly perish!
“Haha, take another look at the clothes on your body before you speak…”
Ling Mo was too lazy to argue and directly reminded her; Huo Wu was stunned upon hearing this.
Looking down, she instantly blushed furiously, utterly embarrassed.
Her clothes had actually been completely burned away by the flames; that perfect body was thoroughly exposed before Ling Mo’s eyes.
And yet Ling Mo’s clothes showed no sign of being burned at all.
With her clothes burned away, she hadn’t noticed before, but now that she had, Huo Wu’s entire demeanor became abnormal.
She was standing stark naked before Ling Mo like this; if word got out, how could she ever show her face again?
