Chapter 247. Using the Blue Silver Domain in front of Tang San.
Having failed to uncover the true culprit with his Blue Silver Domain in front of Tang San, Tang Hao could only try to free Tang San from the illusion, but it was clear that he lacked the ability.
Fortunately, Lin Mengtong wasn't trying to kill Tang San; she simply wanted him to experience the scenarios set by Qian Xunji within the illusion.
Within the illusion, Tang San was assaulted by various predators.
Among them were Bu Le, Master Yu Xiaogang, Dai Mubai, the sleazy fat man Ma Hongjun, Ye Yang, the Titan Giant Ape, the Azure Bull Python, and everything in between. After the cycle of events concluded, Tang San finally emerged from the illusion.
That night, when Tang San returned to the dormitory, Dai Mubai leaned over and asked, "Xiao San, did you get Shi Nian's spirit bone?"
Tang San glanced at Dai Mubai, his eyes flashing with murderous intent as he recalled the scene in the illusion. But the murderous intent faded, and Tang San shook his head and said, "It wasn't Shi Nian, it was a Spirit-type Titled Douluo even more powerful than Shi Nian."
Hearing Tang San's words, Dai Mubai felt a chill run down his spine. The increasing uncertainty about the future made the Shrek Seven Devils realize the unpredictability of the future.
The only reason they remained close to Tang San was because he was chosen by the Asura God. Following him offered them a divine position and a future.
The next day, when Shrek faced the Cang Hui Academy team, Tang San intended to vent his anger on them, but they chose to join him, leaving Tang San with nowhere to vent his anger.
Because his mental state had been affected by Lin Mengtong, Tang San hadn't recovered in the past few days, so Grandmaster ordered him to rest and not participate in the competition.
In the next match, Shrek faced a tough opponent, the Wind and Fire Team!
The Wind and Fire Team is a combination of the Fire Element Team and the Wind Element Team in the previous life.
"Let me play in this match." Tang San said.
"Xiao San, I think you'd better adjust yourself. The Wind and Fire Team, if it was in the previous life, we might be in trouble, but now." Dai Mubai waved his hand and said, "It's a piece of cake."
Tang San said, "Don't be so confident. The Element City has surrendered to the Spirit Hall. They are no longer our steadfast allies. The Fire Element Team and the Wind Element Team are combined together, and it is very likely that they will face the same situation in the semi-finals."
Dai Mubai smiled and said, "Xiao San, you are a little too worried. It's only the knockout round now. The Wind and Fire Team... The team has always been competing with the Wind Elemental team, with the Fire Elemental as a substitute. This trump card will probably only be used in the finals."
Hearing Dai Mubai's words, Tang San agreed and asked, "Have the spots for this match been confirmed?"
Dai Mubai replied, "Yes, Dai Mubai, Fatty Ma Hongjun, Oscar, Senior Sister Jiangzhu, Xiao Wu, and Ye Yang—seven of us will be competing."
Hearing Xiao Wu, Tang San quickly said, "Boss Dai, I haven't asked you for anything else. I just want a promise on this matter!"
"What promise?" Dai Mubai asked.
"Don't let Xiao Wu get hurt," Tang San said.
Dai Mubai patted his chest upon hearing Tang San's words and said, "Don't worry, I'm here. I won't let Xiao Wu suffer any injustice."
The contestants entered the arena. Sitting in the audience, Tang San's eyes welled up as he watched the Wind and Fire Team enter the arena.
The Wind and Fire Team—this was almost the same lineup as in the semifinals of his previous life!
Seeing the Wind and Fire Team's configuration, the Shrek Seven Devils' reborn and time traveler, Ye Yang, blushed.
However, they still held out hope, believing the Wind and Fire Team had only just begun their encounter and wouldn't be able to perform the Five-in-One Fusion Technique. However, the moment the match opened, Huo Wu activated the Fusion Ring, combining wind and fire. Fire fed the wind, and wind fueled the fire, complementing each other. Superimposed on Feng Xiaotian, without Tang San, the Shrek Team was immediately wiped out, with Dai Mubai being the first to be kicked out.
Before she could fulfill her promise to Tang San, Xiao Wu was roasted like a roasted rabbit by Feng Xiaotian's ball of wind and fire.
"Xiao Wu." Seeing Xiao Wu injured again, Tang San immediately drew his Zhuge Crossbow, ready to shoot Feng Xiaotian dead on the field. Fortunately, Flanders was quick-witted and quickly snatched Tang San's crossbow from him, saying, "Xiao San, I know you value Xiao Wu, but have you ever considered that if you do this, Shrek Academy will be disqualified from the competition? Think about others."
Hearing Flanders' words, Tang San calmed down. He silently walked onto the stage, carried Xiao Wu down, and brought her to Ning Fengzhi's side. His meaning was clear.
Treatment!
Devastated by the Wind and Fire Team, the Shrek Team surrendered in their next match against the Tianshui Academy Team.
In this elimination round, the Rose Team advanced with an undefeated record, followed by the Wind and Fire Team, then the Tianshui Team, then the Shrek Team, and finally the Thunder Academy Team.
After the elimination rounds, the teams from each academy headed to the qualifying tournament venues to compete against the various principalities.
Tang San's mindset also recovered during this period. During this time, through Ning Fengzhi's introduction, Tang San met Xue Qinghe.
Xue Qinghe spoke to Tang San with the same gentle, unassuming tone he had used when they met in their previous lives, even prompting Tang San to address him as "Brother Xue," fostering a closer relationship.
As they emerged from Xue Qinghe's tent, Dai Mubai asked, "Xiao San, are you sure?"
Tang San nodded and said, "I'm completely certain. Xue Qinghe is Qian Renxue."
Tang San thought of the Spirit Hall's possession of Xiao Wu's mother's spirit bones, and a plan suddenly occurred to him.
Tang San immediately went to his father, Tang Hao, and revealed Xue Qinghe's identity as Qian Renxue.
When Tang Hao heard Tang San's words, he stared at him intently and said, "Are you sure?"
"Ba Ba, I'm absolutely certain that Xue Qinghe is Qian Renxue, Qian Xunji's daughter."
"Not only that, Qian Xunji's daughter possesses an extremely powerful talent, with an innate level 20 spirit power."
"Qian Xunji's daughter? With an innate level 20 spirit power?" A murderous look flashed in Tang Hao's eyes.
"I understand, Xiao San. Feel free to participate in your Spirit Master Competition. If anything goes wrong, I, Ba Ba, will take care of it for you," Tang Hao said.
After Tang San left, a murderous look flashed in Tang Hao's eyes.
"Qian Xunji, you made me lose my lover and ruined my reputation. I will also make you lose your precious daughter."
In this Soul Master ranking match, Shrek's luck was not very good. After showing off a few times, it encountered the Shrek team's natural enemy, the Rose Team.
"San Gigi, what should we do?" Ma Hongjun asked.
Tang San smiled and said, "It's okay. We'll have a hard time winning the team competition, but we still have a huge advantage in the individual competition. Have you forgotten the unique skills I taught you?"
The Shrek Seven Devils were instantly relieved upon hearing this.
"Hahahaha, you're right. The unique skills you've created, Xiao San, are truly unprecedented and will never be surpassed. With them, we will definitely win the Soul Master Competition."
Forget about anything else, just the Ghostly Shadow Steps would give a Power Attack-type Soul Master like Dai Mubai the advantage of a Sensitive Attack-type. While he couldn't dodge and maneuver around a Soul Sage like Zhao Wuji like Tang San, he was more than capable of dealing with a Soul King.
"Let me determine the order of appearances tomorrow. First, Dai Boss, you go first. Do your best to defeat three people, or at least two." Tang San said coldly to Ye Yang, "Ye Yang, you're second. Dai Mubai will do his best to wear down his opponents when he leaves the stage, and your task is to finish them off. After that, you'll defeat them according to the order of appearances. After Ye Yang, it's Jing Ling. After you go, it's Xiao Wu. After Xiao Wu, it's Tai Long. After Tai Long, it's Fatty. After Fatty, it's me. I will ensure the Shrek Seven Devils achieve ultimate victory."
The next day, during the Spirit Master Qualifying Tournament, when it was the Shrek Seven Devils' turn to face Team Rose, Dai Mubai was the first to go. When he saw Lan Lan on the opposite side go first, he remembered Tang San's spirit, the Blue Silver Emperor.
He recalled the horror of being dominated by Tang San's Blue Silver Emperor in his previous life, but Dai Mubai remained calm.
There was no way the opponent could cultivate the Blue Silver Emperor to the level of Xiao San. Even if he did, he could still defeat him with skills like the Ghostly Shadow Step and the Mysterious Heavenly Art.
Ding, ding, ding— the bell officially rang, and Dai Mubai was instantly possessed by the White Tiger. His upper body exploded, transforming into a tiger-headed man.
Then, his pace quickened, and he began to perform the Ghostly Shadow Step.
However, to Dai Mubai's astonishment, Lan Lan immediately activated her domain—
The Blue Silver Domain—which covered the entire field. The ground beneath his feet instantly became covered with blue silver grass. "Blue Silver Domain!"
Tang San gritted his teeth at this sight. If his gaze could kill, he would have slain Lan Lan a thousand times over. This was his domain, perfect for showing off, one of Tang San's most powerful assets!
And yet, he was bullied away, and used to attack him right in front of him. The key point was that with her around, Tang San would never obtain this domain. How could Tang San not resent her?
The game continues!
Against this grassland, Dai Mubai's Ghostly Shadow Steps proved completely ineffective. He was quickly engulfed by the Blue Silver Emperor's roots, transforming into a plant mass.
Then—
"Blue Silver Drain"
—Dai Mubai felt his soul power being absorbed by the vines entwined around him, transforming into Lan Lan's soul power.
Unable to break free, Dai Mubai could only watch helplessly as his soul power was drained away bit by bit. The surrounding Blue Silver grass, bathed in Dai Mubai's soul power, grew ever more luxuriantly.
Ultimately, Dai Mubai failed to fulfill Tang San's instructions. After defeating at least three opponents, he collapsed alone within this realm, unable to even deplete a single soul power. After stepping down, Dai Mubai said regretfully to Tang San, "Xiao San, I'm sorry. I made a mistake, but I believe you will bring Shrek ultimate victory."
Tang San's heart ached upon hearing this.
It was Ye Yang's turn to take the stage. Ye Yang looked at the girl across from him, then back at Tang San.
He had always harbored a mystery: why was the Blue Silver Emperor spirit in her possession?
But there was no point dwelling on it now. As long as he could defeat Lan Lan, and his next opponent along the way, he could reverse the unfavorable situation facing Shrek Academy and establish his authority within the Shrek team.
Ding, ding, ding—
Bells rang out, and Ye Yang's spirit possessed him, transforming into a nimble figure as he lunged towards Lan Lan.
Ye Yang had his own unique understanding of agility-type spirit masters. As a time traveler, he certainly wouldn't allow himself to become a mere figure like Zhu Zhuqing, whose only skill lay in scraping and merging with Dai Mubai's spirit. Beyond cultivating his identity, he also specialized in attacking vital points.
It was clear that Ye Yang was aiming to become a killer.
Having inherited Tang San's Ghost Shadow Steps, Ye Yang was even more powerful.
His speed surpassed Dai Mubai's, as swift as a shadow. Even with the Blue Silver Domain, which could sense his position, the Blue Silver vines couldn't react faster than Ye Yang.
In Ye Yang's words, "As long as I'm fast enough, your powerful attacks won't matter unless they land on me."
Almost instantly, Ye Yang was in front of Lan Lan.
The Shrek Seven Devils below held their breath.
Tang San, for once, nodded to Ye Yang. If it weren't for Ye Yang's suspicious identity and the uncertainty surrounding it, he would have to admit that among the Shrek Seven Devils, Ye Yang's contribution surpassed Zhu Zhuqing's in every way, aside from the still-low degree of his spirit fusion with Dai Mubai.
Just as Ye Yang was about to knock Lan Lan out with a single blow, a shocking scene occurred.
Watching the approaching spirit cat claws, Lan Lan smiled faintly and moved swiftly, dodging Ye Yang's attack with a gait that Tang San and the others were all too familiar with.
"Ghost Shadow Step! How is that possible?" Ye Yang on the stage, Tang San in the audience, stunned.
"I've got you."
The moment Ye Yang lost consciousness, he was captured by the Blue Silver Domain. The fate of a spirit master of the Agility Attack System who was captured by the Control System was extremely miserable, even weaker than Dai Mubai. After Ye Yang's spirit power was completely squeezed out, he was thrown out by Lan Lan.
Throughout the game, the Shrek team lost two main attackers, while the opposing Rose Team not only did not lose a single one, but Lan Lan also maintained her best condition.
This made Flender, the Master and the others solemn.
Chen Xin, who was sitting in the audience, was amazed and said, "This girl, at such a young age, already has a domain. She has a bright future."
Ning Fengzhi nodded. He had the idea of winning over the Rose Douluo, but before that, he had to confirm it first.
