Chapter 125 The Soul Realm

Zhou Naiyi's ability seemed powerful, but it also had drawbacks. Her ability wasn't natural; this kind of imitation would inevitably be slow, lack a bit of essence, and have poor growth potential. What kind of height she could reach would depend on some opportunities. Of course, this problem was the same for everyone.

"It seems you really want to defeat North Carolina," Li Hao said with a smile.

Tita's lips curved into an arc. "Of course. I didn't come here to lose. If I can win, I will. If I can't, I'll still fight. What if I win?"

This was Tita's true intention. No matter who she faced, she never thought about losing. Even if the opponent was North Carolina, it was the same. Her teammates were the same. They said North Carolina was too strong, and that losing wouldn't be too embarrassing, but that was just feigning weakness. Once they were on the battlefield, they wouldn't be warriors if they didn't kill their opponents.

She glanced at Li Hao. "You also need to buck up and defeat Huoshen (Fire God), and let those who look down on you see. More importantly, do you want to keep sneaking around like this?"

Facing Tita, Li Hao sighed softly. "I thought A Youyou was just A Youyou."

Seeing Li Hao's helpless look, Tita couldn't help but laugh and shake her head. "It's the first time I've seen you with this expression. I thought Demon Li would never change his expression even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him. So you also have difficult times."

Tita laughed happily. Since she met Li Hao, this person had been carefree, not caring much about anything, but always winning. It seemed like nothing could stump him. However, there were always people and things in this world that could subdue him.

Li Hao's old face turned red. "Please don't mention that chuunibyou nickname."

"Ah, I thought everyone called you that. Didn't you know? Xili An seems to be called the Sun God, meaning his light shines on every corner of humanity. It's even more flamboyant than your Dried Up Well." Tita laughed. "It's just that no one calls him that anymore, and he's also bored. He hasn't even shown his face in the competition so far."

"His nickname is actually quite fitting. Hailong's overall strength is in a league of its own."

"Ah, isn't he your greatest enemy? People from Tianqi (Apocalypse) say you're mortal enemies, opponents who want to destroy each other's souls?"

"Big sister, you listen to too many stories. We live in a society ruled by law, and we value reason," Li Hao said, touching his nose.

"Hehe, you're quite good at reasoning with me. Let's just eat noodles," Tita said, stopping at a noodle shop.

This time, Captain Li was very generous. He really wasn't worried when he had money in his pocket, especially when it came to eating noodles!

Looking at the noodles in front of him, Li Hao couldn't help but ask, "Is this a black shop?"

Tita chuckled. "Humor is probably one of the few advantages you have in attracting girls."

Li Hao curled his lips and looked at the menu. Free refills of noodles and soup.

"How are you planning to help me improve my Soul Realm?" Tita finally asked the key question. It was Li Hao, who could always create miracles. If anyone else dared to suggest such a collaboration, she would definitely smear the noodles on their face.

"The Soul Realm isn't anything special. Its essence is still Lucid Force, but it amplifies the inner desires. The primary condition for condensing the Soul Realm is belief… slurps… slurps… Boss, add two servings of noodles, one soup… forget the soup," Li Hao said, waving his hand.

Tita stared with wide eyes. "Li Hao, you're not joking with me, are you? I believe! Of course, I believe! But what does that have to do with me condensing the Soul Realm?"

Li Hao smiled. "Either you don't believe, or your desire isn't strong enough."

"Desire isn't strong enough?" Tita was silent for a moment. How much had she paid for mecha? She couldn't even remember. The day she became the captain of Tianxing Mecha, she gave up the life of a normal girl. She was extremely firm on this point, and she didn't regret it at all. She liked this kind of life. She was willing to fight to the end with her teammates, to earn honor for herself and Tianxing Mecha. The future was unknown, but this was what she wanted most right now.

"It's not that. It's that you don't believe. What are you doubting?" Li Hao said, looking at Tita. "The Soul Realm is a projection. It can be any unbelievable, unrealistic presentation."

Doubt.

Tita's face suddenly turned red, and she began to eat her noodles silently. Impossible, shouldn't be.

Slurps, slurps.

"Boss, add one serving of noodles, add one soup." This was the first time in her life Tita had done something so shameful, but it had a different kind of joy.

"Boss, add two more servings of noodles for me," Li Hao said cheerfully. He never lost out on eating. Back then, the all-you-can-eat restaurant at Tianjing Mecha had been educated by him and Zuo Xiaotang, until they were blacklisted.

"I understand the idea, so what's next? Don't tell me you'll just talk and I'll have to do the rest myself?" Tita said quickly after finishing her meal.

"Training ground at nine o'clock tonight," Li Hao said, patting his stomach. He was eight percent full, and he felt the shop assistant's eyes were already very strange. Places like this should be saved, not eaten until the other party despaired.

"See you at nine!" Tita didn't dawdle. To compete with North Carolina, she had to awaken the Soul Realm, and it had to be a very powerful Soul Realm to have a chance. Fei Man and Erz had already prepared themselves. She had to take on the responsibility of the captain, and now she could only pin her hopes on Li Hao.

Back at the team's training ground, Fei Man and the others surrounded Tita when they saw her return. They knew Tita had gone to find Li Hao. The S Tournament had completely let Fei Man and Erz see what Li Ge's status was. Most of the players on and off the field were discussing Li Hao's situation, whether from Tianqi or not. With the return of Xili An and others, Tianqi was no longer a secret among these players.

The focus now was on whether Li Ge could replicate the miracles he had in Tianqi back then. To be honest, Tianjing Mecha really didn't have the strength to go further. Don't look at how well Wu Zang, Zhou Naiyi, Zuo Xiaotang, and others were playing. Their advantages and disadvantages were very obvious. Even Cheng Konghai had weaknesses. His fighting style was very popular and fierce, but it could still be targeted.

"Boss, what did Li Ge say? Is there a way?"

"He's coming at nine tonight." Tita wasn't sure either. She could only do her best in this kind of thing, and the rest would depend on luck. If she couldn't awaken a powerful enough Soul Realm, there would be no hope. If she did, and they dragged it into a team battle, her ability would be the greatest weapon, or rather, the most suitable power for the rules.

Winning against the odds was never a dream.

Huoshen (Fire God) team, Tianjing Mecha's opponent, was also not idle. For Bashta, it would be perfect to meet Li Hao in the finals, but now was also good. He had been preparing for this battle for two whole years, and the entire team was for this day.

All the members of Huoshen (Fire God) team were present, and the daily training had been completed. Due to Romero's serious injury, they lacked a strong training opponent and were unwilling to find others. The team's secrets must not have any clues leaked.

With all the members present, the staff was playing the combat videos of Tianjing Mecha's members. There were almost none before the S Tournament, and there was no need to watch them. Watching them would be misleading. Zhou Naiyi's performance in the previous tournament didn't even deserve to stand in front of them.

The tactical targets had already been assigned. Everyone still watched it again during training and rest, and then raised questions to discuss in order to ensure that the tactics could be properly executed.

Not only Bashta, but all the members of Huoshen (Fire God) knew who they were facing. They had to put in two hundred percent of their strength in this battle. As for what happened after that, they didn't consider it. They already had the championship, and there was no pressure this time. Not only Bashta, but also Amituo, Wa Lan, Monarolo, and Guma also wanted to surpass themselves by defeating the team led by Li Hao.

Bashta really wanted to have a decisive battle with Li Hao, but it didn't mean that he would ignore the glory of Huoshen (Fire God) team and the glory of his teammates in order to have a one-on-one fight. The primary strategy of Huoshen (Fire God) team was still to eliminate Tianjing Mecha in the individual matches. Wu Zang's Gale ability and skills were very solid, but this person lacked resilience, hesitation, and ruthlessness. He hadn't seen blood. Although he was decisive at critical moments, he wasn't crazy enough. The Lucid Force level of the Golden Zone was also average. He wouldn't last too long. When facing Wu Zang, don't waste your skills with him, but fight him with mental exhaustion.

Zhou Naiyi knew a lot, and her ability was also strange, but she mainly relied on her brain to compete. She was very meticulous, but her own physical strength and the lack of the Golden Zone determined that she could only use big moves. In this regard, she was not as good as Wu Zang. The people in front were too cautious, and the tactics were not clear enough. Of course, it was important to guard against her desperate killing move. As long as she put this down, she could win steadily.

Zuo Xiaotang was an excellent sniper. His previous failure was due to his personal ability, and many people didn't take him seriously. Now that his stealth and teleportation abilities had been exposed, he was mentally prepared for defense. Also, his Golden Zone was very average. He had just reached Burning Will. It was barely enough in team battles, but in individual matches, it was also a fatal weakness.

Whether it was Yongheng or Romero's Wolf Force, they had actually made a lot of mistakes. In the past, Tianjing Mecha was in the dark, but now they were in the open. It was impossible to win by surprise.

Ma Long... this substitute was useless and could be ignored. He had a healing ability, but he was just a little nurse. Minor injuries could play a role, but serious injuries were useless. As for his appearance, he couldn't adapt to such a strong intensity of competition at all.

Cheng Konghai, this was a variable in defeating Tianjing Mecha. Ant's Iron Armor Steel Fist should be stronger than his previous performance, but Huoshen (Fire God) team had already prepared for him.

The tactical room was very silent. Everyone was watching very seriously, firmly remembering Wu Zang and others' technical movements. It was easy for Wu Zang and others to surprise people. One aspect was that everyone didn't know much about them. The same technical movements, used by different people, had different rhythms, strengths, and other details. However, as the number of matches increased and the research increased, it would be different to deal with them.

The substitute, Bella Stein, was staring at Cheng Konghai. He was indeed this year's supernova, but he had been waiting for today for two years. At that time, he was still in the reserve class and was already quite famous. One day, a man stood in front of him. It was Bashta, who had just won the S8 championship. He said that he needed him, that a very powerful enemy was about to appear.
