Chapter 73 - Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament (3)

Soon it was their match, everyone's eyes were towards Shrek, the members who went on today were Dai Mubai, Tang San, Zhu Zhuqing, Jiang Zhu, Tai Long, Jing Ling, Huang Yuan. Most people were interested in Dai Mubai due to his performance yesterday, being only 17 years old he was already a Spirit King, he was practically the youngest Spirit King in history that along with his fourth spirit ring being a ten thousand year ring, the number of fans he had was quite a number.

Everyone in the audience was cheering for Shrek, even their opponents, Elephant Armoured School were quite serious when they appeared on the stage. Seeing their heights and build everyone from Shrek was surprised, they were practically giants, with such a serious expression they were quite scary to look at.

Tang San was a little worried about Dai Mubai, he had decided to hide his spirit rings to only four or five depending on the situation and restrict their ranks to the situation. He may set them up as ten-year-old rings or he could even set them all as hundred thousand year rings to scare their opponents.

When the match began apart from Tang San and Zhu Zhuqing everyone released their spirits, a few people were curious about these two but most people were focused on Dai Mubai instead.

His ring combination is something that can be said to have never been seen before, the whole concept of absorbing rings above your grade is something that is thought to be impossible so Dai Mubai who has achieved something that was thought to be impossible was akin to a world level celebrity.

The fight started with Dai Mubai taking on three of the opponent members while the others took on one each, Tang San was observing the battle thinking of their formation and defense, he found that the captain was the key to the whole formation of their team and also its weak point as long as they could take out their leader they would be able to win this match.

"Take out their captain, he's the key"

When Tang San said that Dai Mubai instantly locked eyes with the captain, he then signaled the other two who were fighting with Dai Mubai to take out the rest of the opponent's team. This way they could take out the other members while ganging up on Dai Mubai in the end, most teams had this plan when they saw Dai Mubai's ring combination. They all thought that Shrek's main power was Dai Mubai while the others were of no consequence and as long as they could take him out then their victory would be guaranteed that was why they didn't pay much attention to Shrek.

The two Spirit Master's who were engaging with Dai Mubai broke apart from their formation and headed towards Tang San and Zhu Zhuqing. But Dai Mubai didn't care about that and looked at their leader Hu Yan Li, Tang San had told him to take out their leader which was Hu Yan Li. He trusted him and didn't bother about the other two who left, his thoughts were all about defeating Hu Yan Li right now but he heard a voice from Tang San who was speaking him using Spirit Power, the contents of the message shocked him and he became more focused against Hu Yan Li.

All that was said was,

'He has a spirit bone'

Two of the Spirit Masters from the Elephant Armoured School were running towards Tang San and Zhu Zhuqing, their goal was to defeat all the other opponents while their captain was restraining the Spirit King and after which they would team up and assault the Spirit King.

When they faced Tang San he was still wearing his hood and was standing in front of Zhu Zhuqing.

In the VIP stands,

"It looks like the team which you favored might be in some trouble School Master Ning"

In addition to the ones present yesterday the clan leader of the Elephant Armoured Clan Hu Yan Zhen was also in the IP stands today, he had come to witness his son's fight today but more importantly he had allowed his son to use the skull spirit bone during the match if necessary, so in case anything happens he wanted to protect his son from any harm if the matter of him having a spirit bone gets leaked.

"Haha, don't underestimate their team school master Hu Yan"

That was all he had said, he wouldn't go out to say that the two people wearing hoods and who haven't revealed their strength were even more powerful than Dai Mubai.

The two Spirit Masters from the Elephant Armoured School were charging towards Tang San and Zhu Zhuqing, he only let out a sigh and used his Forbidden Jade Hands to block their attacks. He didn't release his spirit yet and had only put up his hands to block the attacks from two of the members from the Seven Great Clans.

Most people were thinking that he was foolish for doing so and should have at least released his spirit to block his attack, some girls even closed their eyes not wanting to witness this bloody scene. But when the two punches from the Spirit Masters from the Elephant Armoured School armed with their spirit power was successfully stopped by a small figure with just his b_a_r_e hands everyone in the stadium stood quiet.

Even the people in the VIP section were stunned seeing this, they didn't notice him using his spirit power at all and had only used his b_a_r_e hands, this was due to Tang San's [Forbidden Heaven Technique] his spirit power would become undetectable by others and unless he wants to no one under the Titled Douluo Realm can sense his Qi.

With his [Golden Silver Blood Body] and [Nine Heart's Body] his body has already reached a transcendent level and he would not need to worry about any common weapons to be able to hurt him. Even those students of Elephant Armoured School won't be able to harm him as long as they don't exceed his rank. He had no reason to even use his [Forbidden Jade Hands] but just in case any Titled Douluo were watching his match he wanted to conceal his strength and attribute it to his technique instead.

A Titled Douluo was watching their match, one of the two protectors of the Seven Treasured Clan, Gu Rong. He was watching the match along with Ning Fengzhi and had come with him as his bodyguard.

He was quite interested in Tang San's technique to be able to harden his skin to such a degree but he didn't say anything about it as there were too many people in the VIP stand who would not align with their interest.

But the ones who were the most surprised were none other than the two Spirit Masters who were attacking him, they hadn't expected that the week looking Spirit Master in the team was so strong.

Tang San naturally didn't stop at just blocking their attack, he used his pure physical strength to throw them up into the air, Zhu Zhuqing then sent two flying kicks to throw them off the stage, with the momentum of their fall they had naturally sustained injuries, that along with how Zhu Zhuqing's body had been reconstructed by the Yearning Heartbroken Red was the main reason she was able to break through their defense.

Due to the fight their hoods had fallen off which revealed their faces to the audience, naturally a pretty face would attract more people and with the way they were able to throw off two Spirit Masters with such huge bodies out of the fighting ring and that too without using their spirit power or spirits had made them look even more dazzling.

Soon the match ended with Dai Mubai defeating the leader Hu Yan Li, this wasn't something surprising compared to how Tang San and Zhu Zhuqing defeated the two Spirit Masters.

"Schoolmaster Ning, do you know the identity of the two-spirit masters in the team??"

"Haha, Emperor Xue Ye, all I know is that the boys name is Tang San and the girl is Zhu Zhuqing, though I don't know their current ranks I can tell you that the spirit Tang San possesses is the Blue Silver Grass and the girl and Dai Mubai are both from the Star Luo Empire, but it seems that Tang San and Zhu Zhuqing have quite a close relationship"

Everyone present in the VIP stands understood what Ning Fengzhi wanted to say, Tang San is more talented than Dai Mubai and his spirit is the Blue Silver Grass possibly a variation of sorts. The Emperor then remembered about the Star Luo Imperial Family and the Duke family who they have a close relationship with, he looked towards Tang San and Zhu Zhuqing, this was Ning Fengzhi's main intention when he revealed the relationship between Tang San and Zhu Zhuqing, as long as Emperor Xue Ye is willing to help Tang San with this problem then he could pull a talent like him towards the Heaven Dou Empire.

Even bishop Salas understood the meaning behind Ning Fengzhi's words but there was nothing he could do with this information, the Spirit Hall's influence in the Star Luo Empire isn't that great so even if he wanted to he could not help Tang San in any way so he could only watch an unknown threat go towards the Empire's side or remove that threat.

But he still kept calm, yesterday he had pulled all the information he was able to get from the Spirit Hall's archives regarding Shrek Academy and their team members. He found that the five substitutes wouldn't be a problem as their talent wasn't something too high for the spirit hall to deal with.

But the main team members were the most problematic, they all possessed top tier spirits and even their talents were quite high along with their cultivation and their age was the most shocking, Dai Mubai who was the oldest was only 17 years old. A 17 years old spirit king was shocking, this was even better than most of the members in the Golden Generation of Spirit Hall.

This year's spirit hall team was completely shrouded in mystery even a platinum bishop like him possessed very little information regarding them. He only knew that most of the members had already reached the Spirit King rank that's all. He knew that there were also a few members who were trained by the pontiff herself so even he was curious about who and what level they were at.

But he knew that even the spirit hall's golden generation also wasn't able to reach the Spirit King rank when they were 17 years old.

The most important part was that the cultivation of the other six was currently unknown, their cultivation the last time they checked in the Spirit Hall's branches to receive their stipend was at an average of rank 38. This made him take in a cold breath of air, how was Dai Mubai able to gain nearly 20 ranks in such a short time, at first he thought of those vile cultivation techniques which boost one's cultivation at the cost of their vitality. But he thought this might not be the case as Dai Mubai looked quite healthy at the moment, despite thinking for a long time he was unable to find out he was able to do it.

Soon the match ended with Shrek's victory and they all left the stadium before anyone could stop them but the audience was still smitten by the scene of Shrek Academy defeating the Elephant Armoured School.

A few people from the Blue Sunshine Academy were looking at Shrek's Team with cold eyes, especially their Vice - Dean, Shi Nian.
