Chapter 987: Such a Sharp Sword

now that even powerful individuals like the Dance Skymaster had suffered losses against Xu Xiaoyan's absolutely reliable soul technique in the past. Needless to say, this Earth Demon Rhinoceros would...Entering the arena, facing me was another flash of light and shadow, a mech appeared. This time, it wasn't a long-range mech, but a close combat one. 。The opponent's weapon was a long saber, the kind with a long shaft, longer than Tang Wulin's spear by several feet. The massive blade head was over six meters long and over two meters wide, extremely heavy. 。It looks mighty impressive. 。"Three, two, one, the race begins" 。The electronic voice announced, in a simple and blunt manner, that Tang Wulin's second mecha battle after his participation had begun. 。Both sides charged at each other without hesitation, simply and directly. The two melee mechs quickly approached 。When melee mechs clash in battle, it all comes down to who has the stronger combat skills and whose soul technique provides better assistance to their own mech. 。Generally speaking, in close combat, the soul skills that can amplify a mecha's abilities primarily require the soul master themselves to possess strong cultivation. 。

It is difficult for Soul Masters with the Three Rings to participate in mecha battles through their Spirit.

Because it is not powerful enough to shake the opponent's shield. 。Any mecha master, when choosing a mecha, will consider whether it matches their own spirit ability. Only when they complement each other in the most suitable way can they exert the strongest power in mecha battles. 。The opponent's mecha raised its long blade and swung it directly at Tang Wulin. 。His mecha's heavy blade launched with incredible speed when activated. The seemingly weighty sword suddenly erupted in a flash-like speed, as if it were lightning itself. 。Almost as if in a flash of light, it arrived before Tang Wulin's mecha. 。 Tang Wulin narrowed his eyes, his hands flying across the control panel. His long spear suddenly shot upwards to block 。With a deafening roar of "When!", the two close-combat mechas, though roughly equal in energy, saw one gain the upper hand due to the heavy blade's momentum from its swung arc. 。Tang Wulin's mecha was instantly split and slid backward. 。The opponent, sensing their advantage, countered. Their blade deflected the incoming attack, but in doing so exposed the hilt. Seizing the opportunity, they leveraged the force and swung upwards, aiming directly for Tang Wulin's cockpit. 。He was ruthless! Tang Wulin controlled the mecha to slide backward, and just then, the opponent's thrusters behind him suddenly lit up, and the blade handle fiercely came forward. 。Tang Wulin raised his spear again, trying to create an opportunity for himself against the mech with his weapon. 。

But as the opponent charged forward, the thrusters only released for a moment before shutting off. He ended up stopping in mid-air, and the opponent's blade didn't push forward. Taking advantage of the opening created by Tang Wulin's long spear blocking the empty space, his long sword swung with a powerful arc. The massive blade swept towards Tang Wulin's close-combat mecha, aiming for the waist area.

This clearly looks like a close-combat maneuver that could only be performed by a mech pilot with very strong practical experience. 。After all, Tang Wulin was controlling a mecha, he wasn't fighting himself. 。It turned out to be a losing battle. 。However, his state of mind was very calm. 。Facing danger, he remained calm. Though his melee mech's long spear was too slow to retract, his footsteps never faltered. Instead of retreating, he surged forward, charging at the opponent with a burst from his rear thrusters, his speed skyrocketing. 。At the same time, the raised spears were held upright, used as long poles, and charged straight at the enemy mechs, striking their heads with force. 。The mecha saber across from him swept in an unchanging arc, but with a forceful pull back on the hilt, it transformed into a horizontally sweeping blade. Tang Wulin's mecha charged forward, seeming to want to directly plunge into that very blade. 。Moreover, a layer of flame light suddenly erupted from the mecha opposite, with sharp blades and an imposing aura. 。Crouching allows Tang Wulin to increase his attack range, and the release of his soul skills and attacks are perfectly timed, never used when he's at a disadvantage. 。To release one's martial soul first is to fall into a disadvantage. This, in front of someone truly skilled in combat, is simply laughable. 。The timing of this person's soul skill explosion is just right. 。 。There was nowhere to escape. 。Just then, Tang Wulin, controlling his close-combat mecha, made a very strange movement. 。The mecha jolted, abruptly changing direction under the full power of its thrusters. 。is not to the side, but upward 。You have to know that when a thruster is at full power, changing direction puts tremendous stress on the mech itself. Not to mention the operator as well. 。Without extreme physical fitness, it's absolutely unendurable. 。Tang Wulin's physique was naturally not a problem, but his knowledge of mecha. Ordinary standardized mechas, normally speaking, naturally couldn't withstand 。But he has his own ways. 。Soul power surged within, instantly permeating every joint of the mecha and solidifying its structure. 。The mecha did not release its protective shield, but a layer of white mist appeared on its surface. This was Tang Wulin's Profound Sky Technique soul power reaching the level of a Soul King. 。The blade flashed almost beneath his feet, the long spear in his hand originally intended to strike downwards. At this moment, he used the momentum to shift his aim and thrust the spear forward. 。The tip of the gun, now coated with a layer of white shimmer, blazed with a menacing light. The glint pierced through the air, aimed directly at the enemy mech's head. 。All of this happened very quickly. The opponent released a flame soul skill, the blade glow flickered, and Tang Wulin's mecha changed direction, all within the blink of an eye. 。The mecha opposite suddenly sprang up from its crouched position, shooting upwards at an angle to dodge Tang Wulin's shot. At the same time, it swung its long sword back, aiming for Tang Wulin once more in mid-air. 。Tang Wulin's spear shot upward, the two weapons clashing once again. 。This time, it was a draw. 。Two mechas fell in two directions simultaneously, landing separately with two "rumbling" sounds. 。When they faced each other once more, both drivers' expressions grew solemn. 。They all know they've met a master. 。This was Tang Wulin's first time facing an opponent who could control a mech so skillfully. The other person's control over the long sword was almost like an extension of their own body, as if it were part of them. The speed of the long sword was incredibly fast, clearly influenced by soul power. 。But the more formidable the opponent, the more it ignited his fighting spirit. 。That's why he didn't use his martial soul or bloodline power, only simply using his soul power to amplify. 。He was honing his marksmanship, not eager to defeat his opponent. 。Taking a sudden step forward, Tang Wulin's mecha spear thrust out fiercely. Unlike before, this time, his spirit and energy were instantly unified 。The lance thrust forward, infused with soul power. Body and mecha merged as one in this masterful control. 。Faced with Tang Wulin's suddenly accelerated spear, the opponent's saber chose to block horizontally. Unlike Tang Wulin before, his horizontal block was with a slightly slanted blade. 。A clang resounded as the spear's intent burst forth, shaking the opposing swordsman back half a step. However, the opponent's long blade followed suit, slicing along the spear shaft. 。This is using the length of a weaponelp but smile, "We welcome all talented people. " 。"Alright, I declare the individual competition of the Continental Elite Soul Master Grand Tournament, to commence!"Cheers and applause erupted, thun...
