When Zhao Wuji saw Tang San step forward, his eyes couldn't help revealing a hint of approval. He said toward the Snake Granny,"Senior, what do you think? This disciple of mine is a Battle Soul Master and can meet the requirements for a duel. Let him fight on behalf of Oscar. If he loses, this thousand-year Phoenix-Tail Crest Serpent will belong to you, Senior. Conversely, I ask your understanding."
Oscar secretly gave Tang San a thumbs-up and whispered, "Good brother."
Tang San smiled, "We're roommates, and also friends. Aren't we? Don't worry, this spirit ring will definitely be yours."
As he spoke, Tang San strode forward. The girl on the opposite side had also stepped out. Everyone else slowly retreated, leaving enough space for the battle.
"Tang San, spirit: Blue Silver Grass. Twenty-ninth rank, two-ring Battle Soul Master."
The girl said coldly,"Meng Yiran, spirit: Snake Staff. Thirtieth rank, two-ring Battle Soul Master."
Tang San lifted his right hand, "Please."
Qian Renyue observed the two with interest. During the match, the toxins from Tang San's Blue Silver Grass made Meng Yiran's clothes riddled with holes. But after Qian Renyue's earlier lesson, the male students didn't dare look too much and all lowered their heads.
Eventually, the two entered a contest of soul power. Qian Renyue noticed that although Tang San's soul power wasn't as strong as Meng Yiran's, his soul power had a quality of being endlessly flowing, continuously regenerating. She thought silently—as expected.
In the end, Tang San emerged victorious. Meng Tianxiang and his granddaughter could only leave regretfully. Tang San ate Oscar's Recovery Sausage and began meditating.
Oscar then successfully killed the Phoenix-Tail Crest Serpent and began absorbing his third spirit ring.
Night fell. Oscar successfully absorbed his third spirit ring, and his soul power level rose to rank 31. He officially reached the Soul Elder realm.
Everyone congratulated him.
Oscar bragged:"My third spirit ability: Mushroom Sausage. Effect—flight. How is it? Not bad, right? Hahaha!"
Even Qian Renyue and Ning Rongrong looked at Oscar with some surprise.
"How long can you fly?" Ning Rongrong was the first to ask.
"One minute."
"Only one minute? Then what about speed?" Ning Rongrong frowned, clearly unsatisfied.
"Same speed as the Phoenix-Tail Crest Serpent. How about that? Amazing, right?"
"Indeed… Oscar, you're the most talented Food-type Soul Master I've ever seen. Your future is promising. Keep working hard."Even Ning Rongrong had to admit Oscar's talent was truly strong. Were it not for meeting her sister, she wouldn't be able to compare to him.
Hearing Ning Rongrong's words, Oscar became so happy he practically began emitting pink bubbles. No one wanted to crush his happiness, so they all smiled and congratulated him.
"Oscar, don't tell me you like our Rongrong."Qian Renyue suddenly dropped a bombshell. Although everyone already knew Oscar liked Ning Rongrong, they didn't expect Qian Renyue to expose it on the spot.
"Uh… Yes. I do like Rongrong, and I want to pursue her."Oscar withdrew his playful manner and looked at Qian Renyue with complete seriousness.
Ning Rongrong pointed at herself dumbfounded. She had always thought Oscar was joking—after all, among the Shrek boys, aside from Tang San, the others often joked about teasing girls.
"Oscar, your talent is extraordinary. So I advise you—give up. While you still only have some feelings for Rongrong."
Oscar looked hurt."Why? Is it because of my status? Because I have no background?"
"The rules of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan:the partner of an Auxiliary-type soul master must be a powerful Strength-type soul master.If one chooses an Auxiliary-type partner, then the two must jointly defeat a Titled Douluo.Oscar, do you think you can?"
"Jointly defeat a Titled Douluo? But… Auxiliary-types should also have hope, right? You—"Oscar thought of Qian Renyue's terrifying swordsmanship and tried to argue.
"Before my Martial Soul awakened, I regularly consumed heaven-and-earth treasures to nourish my meridians, and continued after awakening as well. Today, the toughness of my body's meridians is no weaker than any Strength-type.I trained under Sword Douluo Chen Xin. Since awakening my spirit and becoming his disciple, through summer and winter, I have never slacked.
Even Rongrong, though she doesn't need to practice swordsmanship, still regularly consumes heaven-and-earth treasures and trains every day, never slacking.
You can't even complete the twenty laps that Flender assigned.What do you have to compare with me?And what do you have to show your 'love' for Rongrong?Oscar—give up."
Qian Renyue cut him off, shattering his last hope.
The others of Shrek secretly felt admiration. Even they, as Strength-types, couldn't achieve what she had achieved.
Dai Mubai fell into deep thought as well, wondering:If I had her perseverance, would I be in such a pathetic situation now?
Zhao Wuji sighed.Let alone Oscar being a Food-type—even if he were a Strength-type, how could the door of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan be so easy to enter?He stepped forward, patted Oscar's shoulder, and instructed everyone:"All right, prepare yourselves. When Xiao San wakes from cultivation, we leave immediately and return to the academy."
"Teacher Zhao, we probably still can't leave."At that moment, Tang San suddenly opened his eyes from cultivation. As he spoke, he looked at Zhao Wuji."Teacher Zhao, because of the earlier duel… I've broken through to rank 30."
Everyone stared at Tang San in shock.Zhao Wuji burst into loud laughter and slapped Tang San's shoulder hard."Haha! Truly a little monster of Shrek Academy! Good, good! Leave the matter of your third spirit ring to me."
Qian Renyue grew more and more convinced that Tang San was the blue-haired man from her dreams.
"Teacher Zhao, do you think we can stay and help me find a suitable spirit beast?" Tang San asked cautiously.
Zhao Wuji smiled slightly,"Of course. You deserve it. Not only will we find a spirit beast for your third spirit ring—we'll find one that suits you best. It seems our stay in the Star Dou Forest will have to be extended."
That night, to prevent the Dragon-Snake couple from coming over, Zhao Wuji quickly led the seven Shrek students ten more li away. After covering all traces, only then did they make camp.
Another day passed, and Tang San and the others still found nothing.
Night fell. As everyone relaxed, preparing to rest—
Zhao Wuji suddenly released his Martial Soul. In an instant, he completed Martial Soul Possession.
"Everyone, out of the tent! Quickly!"Zhao Wuji growled, his deep voice penetrating the tent.
"Teacher Zhao, what's wrong?"Dai Mubai rushed to his side.
Zhao Wuji did not answer the question."Everyone, get behind me. If anything happens, don't worry about me—leave immediately. Your priority is to get out of the Star Dou Forest.Mubai, while I'm gone, the responsibility of protecting everyone falls to you."Then he turned to Qian Renyue:"Ning Yueyue, once I'm gone, I hope you set aside your usual grievances and keep everyone safe."
Qian Renyue also sensed danger approaching and nodded seriously.
Just as everyone was still confused—
A massive figure stepped out.
"Forest King… Titan Giant Ape!"Tang San and Qian Renyue exclaimed simultaneously.
"Honorable Forest King, we meant no offense. If this is your territory, we are willing to leave immediately."Zhao Wuji said in a deep voice.He knew that Titan Giant Apes could understand human speech.He could only hope it would forgive their trespass.
