A group of people were chatting in the group.
On the field.
The teachers and students of Shrek Academy were also discussing animatedly.
At this moment, the faces of Dai Huabin, Zhu Lu, and Cui Yajie were extremely unsightly.
"You..."
"Aren't you just cheating?"
"Why are you a Spirit King with five black spirit rings when you look about the same age as us?"
Zhu Zhuqing said calmly, "No need for words. I will suppress my spirit power to the level of a Spirit Elder and will not use a single Spirit Ability from my spirit rings."
"Let's begin!"
"Huh?"
Dai Huabin and the others were about to say something more, but their eyes widened instantly upon hearing Zhu Zhuqing's words.
The three of them exchanged glances, immediately forming a triangular formation and launching an attack first.
"White Tiger Light Wave!"
Dai Huabin was the first to attack, but in front of Zhu Zhuqing, such an attack couldn't even touch the corner of her clothes.
"Hell Rush Stab!"
Zhu Lu also chose to attack at this time, but as she rushed in front of Zhu Zhuqing, she was blocked by a casual wave of Zhu Zhuqing's hand and hurriedly retreated.
Zhu Zhuqing didn't say anything like "too weak," as she used to have similar strength herself.
The faces of Dai Huabin and the other two were unsightly; Zhu Zhuqing hadn't even truly struck back or used any Spirit Abilities, yet she easily handled the attacks of the two.
This?
The three of them exchanged a look and instantly had a new strategy.
Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu attacked Zhu Zhuqing simultaneously from the left and right.
As they approached, Cui Yajie immediately used a control skill.
"First Spirit Ability — Charm!"
"White Tiger Vajra Transformation!"
"Hell Decapitation!"
The three of them coordinated with great synergy; after all, among the freshmen, they were the strongest, aside from Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong, and Xiao Xiao in the original plot.
If it were just an ordinary Spirit King, their coordination might have been effective.
But they had encountered Zhu Zhuqing.
"Soul Shifting Method!"
Facing Cui Yajie's control skill, Zhu Zhuqing immediately counterattacked with a technique from the Nine Yin Manual. In an instant, Cui Yajie suffered a backlash and fell into a brief daze.
"Strumming the Five-String Lute."
In the next instant, Zhu Zhuqing was as fast as lightning, using a technique from the Nine Yin Manual similar to acupoint sealing. With light movements, she struck Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu, instantly making them feel their arms go numb and their entire bodies weak and limp.
Bang! Bang!
Zhu Zhuqing struck each of them with a palm, sending them flying back.
Zhu Zhuqing withdrew her Spirit and looked at the three of them, saying calmly:
"You lost!"
Dai Huabin and the other two hadn't even fully reacted before they had already lost.
Indeed!
They had lost.
They had lost completely.
First, Cui Yajie had been controlled by Zhu Zhuqing instead, and as for Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu, they had lost the ability to resist the moment Zhu Zhuqing first made her move.
If Zhu Zhuqing had wanted to kill them, her second attack wouldn't have been a palm strike to send them flying, but a claw strike to slit their throats.
The spectator stands.
The teachers and students of Shrek stood up once again involuntarily, their faces filled with disbelief.
"What happened?"
"She... she didn't seem to use any Spirit Abilities. Her spirit rings didn't change at all. She defeated Dai Huabin's trio without using any Spirit Abilities?"
"Could it be a Spirit Bone skill?"
"No, it didn't look like a Spirit Bone skill either. It seems to be a Self-Created Spirit Ability of her Spirit."
"She's so strong. I didn't even understand how Dai Huabin and the others were defeated. Not a single Spirit Ability was used, and they lost in one round."
"As expected of the God's woman."
Su Yan and his group were watching this with mixed feelings of amusement and helplessness.
[Su Yan: The max-level boss is back smurfing in the beginner village again!]
[Group Member Number Nine: I'm dying of laughter. With a cheater like you, even Tang San would break down. How could these three possibly handle it?]
[Xiao Xiao is the Cutest: So amazing! I want to learn the Nine Yin Manual too. Brother Su Yan, can you teach me?]
[Shui Yueer: We'll talk about it later.]
[Dugu Yan: We've all learned it. In the short term, it's only decent. Zhuqing is powerful because hers was a reward directly extracted from the Group Chat.]
[Liu Erlong: That... I remember Su Yan sent this Cultivation Technique to Zhuqing back then. Great Niece, what was that technique Su Yan sent to you called?]
[Qian Renxue: Nine Solitary Swords!]
[Qian Renxue: It's unique in terms of swordplay, but it's not as comprehensive as Zhuqing's Nine Yin Manual. Even Rongrong's Bright Jade Skill isn't as all-encompassing as the Nine Yin Manual.]
[Ye Guyi: How does it compare to the Flying Daggers of Justice that Number Nine and I represent?]
[Group Member Number Nine: Don't ask. If you ask, we represent justice—Justice will prevail!]
The tournament stage.
The faces of Dai Huabin's trio were unsightly, and they looked at Zhu Zhuqing, hesitating to speak.
They felt deceived, but they were indeed inferior in skill.
However.
With someone as powerful as Su Yan present, they didn't dare voice any resentment they might have.
Zhu Zhuqing said calmly, "You lost, so the two of you must separate from now on."
Hearing this, Dai Huabin clenched his fists.
Zhu Lu said with an unwilling expression, "You... why are you doing this? With your strength, you were definitely 100% sure you'd defeat us. You're intentionally trying to break us apart."
"Why?"
Zhu Zhuqing looked at the two of them and said in a heavy voice, "The marriage alliance between the Dai and Zhu families has lasted for over ten thousand years."
"The blood flowing through your veins is almost the same. Must you be tied together generation after generation just for the sake of a Spirit Fusion Skill?"
Hearing this, Dai Huabin couldn't help but ask, "But what does that have to do with you?"
"Why are you doing this?"
"Because..."
Zhu Zhuqing's gaze sharpened as she looked at them and whispered, "My name is Zhu Zhuqing."
"What!"
Dai Huabin, Zhu Lu, and even Cui Yajie couldn't help but take two steps back, their eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
Zhu Zhuqing turned around and said coldly, "This matter is settled. If you two do not keep your promise, I will kill you directly!"
"Besides that, I will have Wang Donger speak with the elders of the Sea Gods Pavilion to admit the three of you directly into the Inner Court."
"And also."
Zhu Zhuqing suddenly turned to Zhu Lu and said, "The Self-Created Spirit Ability I just used—if you want to learn it, you can stay by my side and learn."
The match ended quickly. After Zhu Zhuqing returned, Dai Huabin's trio also left the stage, remaining silent throughout.
Zhu Zhuyun looked at Zhu Zhuqing and gave her an approving look.
The relationship between the Dai and Zhu families might not have the Gu-style competition in the Douluo Continent World Two, but it is still disgusting!
It's been ten thousand years.
All for a lousy Spirit Fusion Skill?
Is this Spirit Fusion Skill really that strong?
It's just so-so!
But the price paid for this Spirit Fusion Skill is far too high, and it's truly sickening.
A seat in the spectator stands.
Huo Yuhao was also currently in a daze, asking within his Sea of Consciousness:
"Brother Tianmeng, what Spirit Ability did that Senior use just now? How did Dai Huabin's trio lose so quickly?"
"Did she use strength exceeding that of a Spirit Elder?"
