Looking at Wu Ming’s departing back, Manager Ao narrowed his eyes and thought, “This guy isn’t just powerful.”
But what he cared about most right now was whether Wu Ming could defeat ten Spirit Ancestors.
If he could.
Then in the future, he could try using his connections to find some fallen nobles and jointly handle a set of procedures…
…
“Little San, Xiao Wu, how did your first spirit fight feel?”
Seeing Tang San and Xiao Wu come out from the one-on-one sub-arena, Wu Ming greeted them.
“Being watched by thousands, were you very nervous?”
“It was all right.”
To Tang San, this kind of spirit-fighting match was like the martial arts assemblies of his previous life, where experts competed and exchanged pointers.
One’s eyes only had the opponent in them; how could there be anyone else?
“They were just a little more resistant to beating than the students at junior academy.”
Xiao Wu rubbed her fists.
In her first spirit-fighting match, she had encountered a rank 28 defense-system Spirit Master, and it had taken her no small amount of effort, causing her wrist to feel somewhat sore and numb.
Although she was a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Beast transformed into human form, a Soft Bone Rabbit ultimately could not compare to something powerful like a tiger or lion.
Especially when the opponent’s Spirit Power rank was not too different from hers, the battle required quite a bit of time.
“Students from junior academies can’t compare with the Spirit Masters in the Great Spirit Arena.
Most Spirit Masters here rely on winning spirit fights to earn gold spirit coins and make a living.
Their combat experience is extremely rich.”
As Wu Ming explained this to the two of them, he saw Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong come out from the exit of a two-on-two sub-arena.
He waved and greeted them.
“Did you defeat your opponents?”
“Of course.”
Ning Rongrong put her hands on her hips, rather pleased with herself.
“With this young lady’s support, Zhuqing fought one against two.
It was nothing more than a tiny dish.”
Having won, Zhu Zhuqing was in a good mood.
A faint smile appeared on her face, and she nodded toward Wu Ming.
“The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda’s amplification effect is extremely strong, and the two opponents only had rank 23 Spirit Power, so we won rather easily.”
“Whether it’s one-on-one or two-on-two, the opponents in your first match are all relatively weak.
After this, that won’t necessarily be the case.”
Wu Ming smiled, then saw Oscar and Ma Hongjun, bruised and swollen, supporting each other as they walked out from the two-on-two sub-arena.
Their clothes were somewhat scorched.
He asked in surprise, “There aren’t many teams in the same realm that can beat you two into this state.
Who did you run into?”
“Us!”
It was a young man who looked around twenty years old.
He had a slender figure, black hair, and a thin face, but his gaze was sharp.
His invisible aura made people’s hair unconsciously stand on end.
“You’re the ‘World-Honored One’ who defeated Huo Wushuang and Huo Wu when they came here for training last year, right?
My name is Yu Tianxin, from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
If there’s a chance later, I hope I can have a one-on-one bout with you.” Yu Tianxin extended his hand toward Wu Ming.
“Make friends?”
Wu Ming gripped the other party’s hand.
Sensing him continuously exerting force, Wu Ming chuckled softly and also used a little strength, making Yu Tianxin’s blade-carved face stiffen further from the pain.
“My name is Wu Ming, born a commoner.
If you make friends with me, aren’t you afraid your noble friends in the academy will mock you?”
“I’ve never treated those noble students who rely on their family elders’ connections and waste their Martial Soul talent as friends.” Yu Tianxin felt as if his palm had been clamped by a pair of scorching tongs, hurting badly, but he still did his utmost to maintain his cold expression as he said with a smile that was not a smile.
Whoosh!
The instant Wu Ming released his hand, Yu Tianxin immediately tucked his hand behind his waist, continuously clenching and unclenching it to relieve the numb pain.
But his slightly trembling fingers exposed the shock in his heart.
What enormous strength!
This “World-Honored One” absolutely lived up to his reputation!
“I heard that you accepted Fiend Team’s group battle challenge… I advise you to forfeit.
There’s no need to throw away your life for the sake of face.”
Relationships between Spirit Masters were not complicated.
Once one side acknowledged the other’s strength, their attitude would become much gentler, and Yu Tianxin was exactly like this.
“Thank you for your concern.”
Wu Ming smiled and said, “But since you want to be friends with me, you naturally need to understand my strength, don’t you?”
Yu Tianxin narrowed his eyes and directly issued an invitation.
“With your strength, the Four Element Academies would all be willing to make an exception and recruit you.
Why not come to our Thunderclap Academy?”
“I’m not trying to show off my courage in front of your Four Element Academies.
I’m setting an example for them.”
Wu Ming chuckled and raised a thumb, pointing at Tang San, Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, and Zhu Zhuqing behind him.
“They are new students who joined Shrek Academy, the academy I belong to.
As their senior, most of their future cultivation and training may be led by me, so naturally, I have to truly prove my ability to them.”
Only then did Yu Tianxin place his attention on the four of them.
Aside from Tang San.
The other three girls were all beauties in the making.
There was even one among them who he felt looked somewhat familiar… Ning Rongrong of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan?
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan were both among the Upper Three Clans, linked by a shared breath.
Added to the Clear Sky Clan’s withdrawal from the world, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan had also shifted from its original neutrality toward the Heaven Dou Empire, causing the two clans to contact each other more frequently than before.
Yu Tianxin had naturally met Ning Rongrong before.
“In that case, I will have to properly see later exactly how you defeat ten Spirit Ancestors.” This chapter was copied from g.com without permission.
Yu Tianxin no longer persuaded him.
He led another teammate beside him past Wu Ming and the others, heading toward the main spirit arena, clearly wanting to occupy seats in advance.
“That guy is really arrogant!”
Xiao Wu was indignant and made a face at Yu Tianxin’s back.
“He looks over twenty.
Is he only a Great Spirit Master?”
After that, Xiao Wu asked about this matter.
She remembered that in sparring matches at the Great Spirit Arena, aside from group battles, in one-on-one and two-on-two matches, both sides had to be within the same realm.
“No.
That Yu Tianxin’s Spirit Power rank is not bad.
The feeling he gives me is no weaker than Dai Mubai.” Tang San could not determine Yu Tianxin’s exact Spirit Power rank, but he had definitely reached the Spirit Elder realm.
Wait!
Spirit Elder?
Tang San suddenly looked at Oscar and Ma Hongjun in disbelief.
“You two have already reached Spirit Elder?”
“We are your seniors, after all.
How could our cultivation be weaker than yours?”
Oscar produced two Sweet Mushroom Sausages, giving one to Ma Hongjun and swallowing the other himself, recovering from the injuries on his body.
“This is all thanks to Boss Wu’s training.
Little Ao’s Spirit Power has already reached rank 32, and I’ve also reached rank 31.”
Ma Hongjun swallowed the Sweet Mushroom Sausage, moved his wrist, and spoke of his and Oscar’s Spirit Power ranks.
“I remember Senior said Oscar is fourteen.
How old are you?” Tang San looked at Ma Hongjun.
“Also fourteen?”
“Do I look as prematurely aged as Oscar?
I’m only twelve, about the same as you.”
Ma Hongjun’s face filled with dark lines.
He also twirled the mustache he had deliberately grown, pretending to be profound as he said, “Don’t judge by appearances, junior schoolbrother.
I keep this mustache to show maturity.”
The corner of Tang San’s mouth twitched, but he could not help sighing that everyone in Shrek Academy possessed extraordinary talent.
Only Dai Mubai seemed somewhat lacking.
No!
Among his peers, Dai Mubai was absolutely a genius among geniuses as well.
But compared with Wu Ming, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun, perhaps it really was because he was too fickle in love and had put all his energy on women that he seemed somewhat lazy.
And Zhu Zhuqing clenched her fists even tighter…
…
