"Shrek… lost?"
"The Peach Garden Battle Team, with four people, defeated the combined seven-person team of Shrek and the Royal Fight Team, despite being outranked?!"
"Did I see that correctly?"
"It's a fix! This is definitely a fix!"
"Damn it, refund!"
"…"
The moment Tang San, the last member of the Shrek Team, fell, the Soto City Great Spirit Arena erupted.
Most of the audience broke down at this moment, their angry faces as red as persimmons.
Fan signs and glow sticks originally emblazoned with messages like [Go Shrek], [Shrek Must Win], and [Thousand Hands Asura is Invincible] were hurled from all directions at the Shrek Team members.
The undefeated myth that had lasted for a month in the Soto City Great Soul Arena had fallen at this moment, with everyone clamoring against them.
"I lost. I tried my best, but I still lost."
"Unless I can forge the Buddha's Fury Tang Lotus and the Torrential Pear Blossom Needle…"
"But that's simply beyond my current strength to create."
"Right now, I can't defeat them…"
Tang San lay weakly in a pool of blood, his eyes dull.
Even his rare external Spirit Bone, the Eight Spider Lances, which his teacher had praised, had five of its legs severed in this battle by the Hell Flying Flower, a Hell Hidden Weapons jointly unleashed by Meng Yiran and Zhu Zhuqing.
Mysterious Jade Hand, Godly Zhuge Crossbow, sleeve arrows, Dragon Beard Needle… all had been defeated.
The Hell Flying Flower was not only astonishingly destructive, but the hellish and undead aura it carried also sent shivers down one's spine. Coupled with Zhu Zhuqing's Ten Yama Halls, they felt as if they were facing the judgment of an unassailable Yama King, utterly powerless to retaliate.
Tang San lay weakly in a pool of blood, his eyes dull.
Teacher… did I… did I fail to live up to your expectations?
Tang Sect… can I still restore your glory?
Even when struck by rotten shoes, drink cups, and other trash thrown from the stands, he remained motionless, just lying there.
There is no greater sorrow than a heart that has died…
He could vaguely hear the Great Spirit Arena guards coming to maintain order, and some healing Spirit Masters and doctors coming up to treat their injuries, accompanied by the doctors' anxious voices:
"Are there still vital signs?"
"Esteemed healing Spirit Master of the Royal Fight Team, please help us treat the injured!"
"Still no good?"
"Are they dead?"
"No, they're alive, their heartbeats have resumed, they're still alive! Quick, stop the bleeding for the injured."
"No, the wounds are difficult to heal. This weapon contains corrosive power. If this continues, these injured individuals will be left with unhealable injuries."
"…"
"How are they doing now?"
"The Evil Eyes White Tiger's left eye was hit; it might not be salvageable."
"The Evil Fire Phoenix's left leg's major bone was shattered; we cannot reattach it. If we don't amputate in time, the corrosive power might spread to the abdomen, and there's a risk of genital paralysis."
"Where are the injured's family and teachers? We need their signed consent, otherwise we cannot risk treatment!"
…
"We won! Yay! Teacher, we won!"
"muamua~"
Just as the medical personnel were urgently treating the severely injured Shrek members.
On the Spirit Arena stage, Ning Rongrong displayed a sweet smile, jumping up excitedly. Before even leaving the stage, she couldn't help but blow several flying kisses towards Su Ran's location, sharing her joy with her teacher.
The thought of being able to kiss her teacher soon made her tremble with excitement.
Her peach blossom spring water was about to overflow~
The other three students from Peach Garden Academy also smiled, waving to Su Ran along with Ning Rongrong:
"Teacher, we won! We won!!"
"Grandpa and Grandma, did you see my performance?!" Meng Yiran also waved to Dragon Duke and Snake Woman.
Dragon Duke and Snake Woman had long been watching with teary eyes, their old hands tightly clasped together:
"We saw, we saw. Our Meng Yiran is very strong now, Grandpa and Grandma are proud of you."
"Teacher Su Ran, we truly don't know what to say. In just one month, you have taught Meng Yiran so excellently. We are truly grateful to you."
This was their first team battle, and they achieved such astonishing results.
Dragon Duke and Snake Woman were utterly impressed by Su Ran's teaching ability.
Even Meng Yiran herself was somewhat surprised that her combat ability could contend with Tang San.
She had known her improvement was significant, but she never expected such a tremendous leap in just one month!
I finally brought honor to Grandpa and Grandma!
Weren't you fighting with Grandma and me for Spirit Beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest?
Weren't you going to bully us?
Try bullying us now!
Su Ran nodded to the grateful Dragon Duke and Snake Woman, and seeing his four disciples so happy on the Spirit Arena, a knowing smile appeared on his handsome face beneath the mask.
Su Ran stood up from his seat, walked to the railing, and gave Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing a thumbs-up. His voice traveled several hundred meters, piercing through the noise, and reached their ears:
"Congratulations, you have won. You are excellent."
Although Su Ran was confident in their team battle victory, it was their first time fighting outnumbered in a team battle, and against the combined forces of Shrek and Royal Fight Team. Their victory with such a large advantage was indeed commendable.
Initially, he only took disciples to gain disciple-taking rewards, but now seeing the smiles on their faces after winning the match, he seemed to understand the inseparable bond between teacher and student that comes with education and nurturing.
However, upon hearing Su Ran's voice faintly sound in her ear, Ning Rongrong's eyes lit up. Her teacher could actually transmit sound! She immediately shouted towards Su Ran's location:
"Teacher, you are the best! I love Teacher the most!!!"
"…"
"He's the teacher of the Peach Garden Battle Team?"
"Damn, so young? And he can lead such awesome students?"
"He screwed me over, I bet half my life savings on Shrek winning. If I had bet on the Peach Garden Battle Team, I would have made a killing!"
"It's a scam, this is a scam, no capitalist is a good person!"
Ning Rongrong's sweet shout to her teacher drew the attention of some surrounding spectators towards Su Ran, sparking discussions.
Su Ran's face instantly darkened:
I guess… I shouldn't have praised her!
Just then, Su Ran suddenly paused, and the voice of the disciple-taking system echoed in his mind:
[Ding—]
[The disciple cultivated by the host has achieved a rare team battle accomplishment—Epic at First Strike. Reward: Host's full attributes increased by 2%, spirit power level increased by 1%.]
[The team cultivated by the host's disciples has achieved its first team battle victory, crushing a top-tier team of the same rank. Reward: Host's full attributes increased by 1%, spirit power level increased by 1%.]
[All disciples displayed their prowess in the team battle, shattering inner demons and past traumas, gaining the Confidence Glory buff, spirit power level increased by 1%, crowned with the Epic Immortal Master's Diadem—Epic Immortal Master's Diadem exclusive Domain effect: For every disciple within the Peach Blossom Domain, the host gains a 10% increase in all attributes, with a maximum of 100%.]
[The four disciples achieved the outnumbered victory accomplishment, each earning a title in this team battle—Ning Rongrong: Unbreakable Golden Shield, Zhu Zhuqing: Lord of Slaughter, Meng Yiran: Excellent Collaborator, Wang Sheng: Bone Blaster.
Reward: Four rare flower and herb drawing opportunities… Drawing… Drew Immortal Grade Flower and Herb—Yin Nether Soul Guiding Grass… Drew Immortal Grade Flower and Herb—Golden Body Glazed Flower… Drew Immortal Grade Flower and Herb—Storm Tiger Stripe Bamboo Shoot… Drew Immortal Grade Flower and Herb—Other Shore Undead Flower…]
[Full attribute increase: Refers to a comprehensive boost in all indices, including spirit ring age, strength, speed, defense, and so on.]
[Host's current spirit power level: 76*1.01*1.01*1.01=78.3 levels!]
The rewards are here!
Su Ran was somewhat surprised. He hadn't expected the Great Spirit Arena battles to yield such rich rewards. His spirit power had directly jumped by more than two levels at this moment. 1% might sound small, but it was directly multiplied by his Spirit Master level, resulting in a considerable increase.
At the same time, a purple and white immortal master's diadem appeared in Su Ran's spiritual sea of consciousness. This was the Epic Immortal Master's Diadem, granting Su Ran a bonus similar to a teacher's Domain.
This bonus surprised Su Ran even more than the Immortal Grade Flowers and Herbs. One disciple within the Peach Blossom Domain could increase his full attributes and spirit power level by 10%. He now had four disciples, meaning that as long as Rongrong and the other three were around him, he could increase his strength by 40%, with a maximum increase of 100%.
It's important to note that this was an increase in all attributes, even more abnormal than Ning Rongrong's single strength and speed buff, and it could stack with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda's amplification.
If the number of disciples reached ten, Su Ran's strength could double. With his ultimate Spirit, coupled with his current spirit ring configuration and various unique skills, he would not fear even a Titled Douluo.
