Walking into the Great Spirit Arena, the first thing that greeted their eyes was a huge stone tablet, carved with densely packed names. Flender told them that these names were all of the dead in the spirit fights.
Spirit fight registration here was very simple, one only needed to fill in a form that included name, age, birthplace, spirit, and one could receive the initial iron spirit fight badge. Of course, registration also required each person to pay ten gold coins as a registration fee.
Flender talked about the Spirit Arena while waiting for Tang San and Xiao Wu to finish their respective registration.
After registering, it was time to proceed with the spirit fight ranking. Flender brought them to the gambling type spirit fight area, and after giving Dai Mubai a few simple instructions, he went to the spirit fighting arena on his own accord.
Dai Mubai told Tang San and the others that in the Great Spirit Arena, only when winning more than five matches in a row, the spirit fighting badge level reaching a certain level or the Spirit Master level being extremely high, could they compete in the main Spirit Arena. Novices like them could only compete in the branch Spirit Arena, winning an iron spirit fight could get ten gold coins as a prize, losing no prize.
Soon, the rankings were announced, and Yi Deng was the first to go up.
The Spirit Masters participating in the spirit fights were all arranged to rest in a spacious room, waiting to go on stage.
Xiao Wu sat beside Tang San, saying in a low voice: "Ge, I just asked Dai Mubai, even though each Spirit Master can only participate in one gambling match per day, they can simultaneously participate in different types. We're all twenty ninth ranked, in this level, it shouldn't be difficult to win.”
Tang San hesitated a moment. He hadn't seen that person in a few years, and still didn't know how strong he was.
Dai Mubai saw through Tang San's thoughts at a glance, smiling as he pushed Tang San over,”
"Alright, anyway we're also here to increase our actual combat experience, a bit more battle experience is always good.”
Dai Mubai's heart was filled with joy, now he could spend some alone time with Xiao Yi,"Little San, you take Xiao Wu to the two against two side to register, the battle here should still have a while to start.”
Ma Hongjun: Boss Dai, I'm not human?
Dai Mubai: Three, two……
Ma Hongjun: There's a pretty girl outside. Boss Dai, I'll go first!
Yi Deng expressionlessly looked at Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun's 'eye contact' endlessly, curling his lips,”
Dai Mubai hurriedly got up and walked in front of Yi Deng. Yi Deng had just obtained his third spirit ring, and if he went spirit fighting now, it would be the end of an ordinary person's sure defeat. Even though he had confidence in Yi Deng, he still worried,”
Yi Deng took a step back, somewhat strenuously raising his head to look at Dai Mubai, height was a weakness,”
Dai Mubai didn't even think, immediately continuing,”
Ma Hongjun covered his face as he looked at the two, he had received ten thousand points of attack from the pink bubble.
Speaking of which, he and Yi Deng had both just obtained their third soul rings. In other words, the two of them could form a two-on-two team!
Ma Hongjun's eyes lit up, and then he turned around to see Dai Mubai squinting at him, shivering. Ma Hongjun expressed, Boss, this little one wasn't thinking about anything just now!
As soon as Yi Deng stepped onto the stage, the audience erupted into applause. When he first came to the Spirit Arena, Yi Deng was only five years old. Moreover, he had exquisite looks and was often mistaken for a young girl. Therefore, Yi Deng was a little unhappy and went a little more ruthless. The audience then remembered this young man who was both beautiful and violent.
Yi Deng's opponent was a control-type soul master with a martial soul of the plant Ghostvine. The person looked gentle and weak, and even walked like a snake. When he saw Yi Deng's face clearly, a trace of jealousy appeared in his eyes, which was then suppressed by a sinister smile."We meet again ~"
Dai Mubai coldly looked at the person opposite Yi Deng, his hands unconsciously clenching, it was him again, it seemed the lesson last time wasn't enough, only half a year and he was jumping around again! However, he was still slightly relieved. He would be even more worried if Eden encountered an opponent who was almost level 40.
Ma Hongjun's expression wasn't good either, clearly he knew about Dai Mubai and the person on stage.
Yi Deng frowned and silently took a small step back. Mubai, there's a pervert here.
It wasn't the first time Yi Deng and Anthony had met. Anthony was almost twenty years old, but he was always defeated by Yi Deng.
Why was Anthony so obsessed with Eden?
Very simple, he took a fancy to Dai Mubai.
Dai Mubai's face was very bewitching, especially when looking at a person gently it made people feel like they were doted on by the whole world, and once after a spirit fight Dai Mubai was waiting for Yi Deng, just as Yi Deng and Anthony were standing close, thus a misunderstanding occurred.
Anthony didn't know where his confidence came from, thinking that as long as he defeated Yi Deng he could get Dai Mubai, so he went head-to-head with Yi Deng. His family was rich and powerful, but he only used a little trick in ranking, but it was enough to give Yi Deng a headache. Yi Deng wasn't easy to handle either, once he met Anthony he would definitely beat him to death.
Dai Mubai considered himself a good man, how could he watch his own child suffer?）Therefore, he taught Anthony a lesson in private.
Only he hadn't expected that Anthony would still be so unbridled in Yi Deng's line of sight. Dai Mubai closely watched Yi Deng's situation, always feeling that something wasn't right.
Yi Deng had rushed to Anthony's side the moment the referee called for the start. When fighting a control-type Soul Master, one should ignore his control and quickly win by close combat before the opponent started. This was Tang Wunian's experience from so many battles.
Three soul rings quietly appeared. The ice bow was aimed at Anthony, and several sharp arrows flew straight at him.
A strange smile appeared on Anthony's face. He flipped over to dodge the arrow and then surrounded the entire arena with vines. The surroundings were tightly sealed, and the pressure was terrifying.
"What happened? Why don't you let me see it?"
The audience was in an uproar. They had spent money to watch the competition, not to see the vine cover bloom!
Yi Deng's heart tightened. In a windless environment, he suddenly felt hot air blowing towards him. Yi Deng frowned and waved his hand. The wind gathered in his palm and formed a fixed wind in front of him. It slowly pressed in the direction of the heat released by Anthony's Ghostvine.
"Rustle-Rustle-"
The ghost vine began to shake off its leaves. In the darkness surrounded by the vines, the leaves fell to the ground. Surprisingly, the leaves that fell to the ground seemed to be completely shattered. The shiny fragments spread on the ground, but gradually formed a pool of water.
Yi Deng cursed in a low voice. Even an idiot could tell that something was wrong with the thing that fell from the ghost vine.
Yi Deng had clearly sensed the changes in Anthony's Ghostvine. No wonder he dared to stand in front of him so boldly. It turned out that he had the special enhancement of his third soul ring. Unfortunately, using poison in front of Star Constellation, wasn't that showing off in front of an expert?
Anthony saw that Eden was dodging his attacks, and his smile became more and more smug." Do you think you can escape? My Ghostvine isn't going to be taken care of so easily.”
Yi Deng had escaped the initial embarrassment and figured out the source of Anthony's mysterious confidence. Once again, he dodged the attack of the Ghostvine and stood on the ground safe and sound. Looking at Anthony's flustered expression, Yi Deng smiled sarcastically. It was his turn to fight back.
It was a good opportunity to test the power of his Eras 'Needle.
Arrow after arrow rained down on Anthony. A hint of frustration flashed in Anthony's eyes. Not being able to control Eden with the Ghostvine meant that he had lost the initiative. Fortunately, he had the item given to him by that master. Even if he lost, Eden would not have an easy time.
Thinking of the things he had brought with him, a hint of viciousness flashed across Anthony's eyes. As long as he was close to him, he would be found by that aura. It was said that the lord liked this type of person the most.
Anthony used the vines to block the arrows, but he did not notice the dark light flashing on Eden's fingertips.
"Ahhh, what did you do?”The vines covering the sky instantly dissipated, and the audience finally saw the situation on the stage.
The two of them looked fine, but what was wrong with the one rolling on the ground? The arrows on the ground did not hit their bodies. They all knew that beauties liked fists, but they had never seen anyone in such pain!
The audience was abuzz with discussion. After the referee announced Eden's victory, there was another round of applause.
In places where no one could see Anthony's body, his skin had bulged into walnut-sized bumps. Anthony was tortured by the pain from these bumps.
Yi Deng looked coldly at Anthony, always feeling that this spirit fight had ended too simply. Logically speaking, for Anthony to be able to compete with him so boldly, it couldn't be as simple as Ghostvine's newly added poison.
Seeing Anthony being taken away, Yi Deng turned around and left. Forget it, he didn't want to think about it anymore.
Dai Mubai frowned as he watched Yi Deng come down, saying to Ma Hongjun,
"Little Yi won too easily. Anthony didn't seem to have used his full strength.”"Boss Dai, do you still have some unclear relationship with Anthony?”
"Fatty!" Dai Mubai hurriedly stopped Ma Hongjun, then pulled Yi Deng into his arms,”
"It's okay, I won!" Yi Deng suppressed the strange feeling in his heart, raising his head to give Dai Mubai a smile.
"Alright, you guys." Ma Hongjun interrupted,"It's soon this little lord's turn, you guys watch!"”
------
Ma Hongjun's opponent was a strength type Spirit Master, his spirit power several ranks higher than Ma Hongjun's. Even though he faced a somewhat tyrannical opponent, Ma Hongjun's spirit was a great advantage. Even though it was somewhat difficult, he still obtained victory.
Ma Hongjun came down from the stage with a face full of red light, then winked at Yi Deng,”
Dai Mubai stretched out his hand to embrace Yi Deng, looking at Ma Hongjun with a smile that was not a smile, until Ma Hongjun stiffly found a corner to squat down and draw circles.
A figure suddenly appeared at the door. Ma Hongjun's expression changed, gesturing to Dai Mubai, and then imperceptibly drawing Yi Deng's attention elsewhere.
"Xiaonian, I'm going to go and prepare." Dai Mubai's expression was no different, placing Yi Deng next to Ma Hongjun, then turning around to leave, Fatty, you must grow a bit more careful!
The person outside was precisely Anthony who had once again contributed points to Yi Deng. Seemingly expecting Dai Mubai to come out, Anthony was now waiting on the side.
As the current favored son of the stars, Yi Deng, whose saliva and hair contained lethal poison that could kill anyone with a single touch, was known by everyone as the number one star in the world in terms of poison making ability. The effects of his self-created Eras Needle were naturally not to be trifled with. This sentence could be understood as " XXX is not to be trifled with ", because vegetarian monks were usually benevolent. If they were not vegetarian, they were not benevolent and not easy to bully. On the other hand, saying "XX is a vegetarian" meant that this person was easy to bully!），Anthony's expression was very bad. Seeing Dai Mubai walk out, Anthony's eyes were filled with a dark and gloomy mood for a moment, but it was immediately suppressed,
Dai Mubai stretched out his hand to block Anthony's approaching body,”
"Are you really that heartless?" Anthony was somewhat on the verge of collapse, matching his expression could really arouse the protective desire of ordinary people, but Dai Mubai wasn't an ordinary person,”
"Naturally!" Dai Mubai coldly looked at Anthony, the disdain in his eyes thoroughly infuriating Anthony.
"Alright, this is what you said. Don't regret it in the future!”Anthony threw out a vicious sentence and staggered away. No one saw the deep hatred in his eyes.
Dai Mubai fiercely raised his right hand, intense white light swallowing and spitting in the palm of his hand. He never had a good temper, or rather, his temper was more irritable than anyone else's, was this threatening him?
He always had a strange feeling in his heart, Anthony seeing him this time definitely had a backup plan. Dai Mubai was secretly on guard, he would deal with whatever came his way. He had always been with Yi Deng, he wouldn't let him have an opportunity.
Dai Mubai turned around and walked towards the arena. He should be going on stage soon, delaying too long would make Yi Deng suspicious, so he'd better hurry!
Dai Mubai was already thirty ninth rank close to fortieth rank, basically an invincible existence among Spirit Masters of this rank. His bad mood could only make the Spirit Masters on the opposite side suffer.
Ma Hongjun watched from below the stage, a trace of sympathy rising for that Spirit Master abused by Dai Mubai. Poor kid, how could he rush to meet boss Dai at this time?
Dai Mubai finished this match, the evil fire in his heart also almost completely vented, just as Tang San and Xiao Wu who were playing two on two over there also returned, today it could be said that everyone was happy, everyone obtained victory.
"Let's go, before the dean left, he told us to go back first after the spirit fights, Fatty will go find the dean.”
Dai Mubai's face revealed a faint smile that wasn't a smile,”
"Xiao Yi, are you going?"
"Damn fatty, you want to fight again?" Dai Mubai angrily glared at Ma Hongjun, tightly protecting Yi Deng, daring to lead my child astray, don't want to live anymore!
Ma Hongjun smiled somewhat playfully. He turned around and left.
"Boss Dai, where did that lewd fatty go?”Xiao Wu asked.
"You already said he's lewd, what else can he do, the evil fire can't be suppressed.”
"That's called solving legitimate physiological needs.”Yi Deng glanced at Dai Mubai, not paying any attention to what a girl was saying.
Dai Mubai smiled, saying to Tang San and Xiao Wu: "There's nothing we can do about it. Besides that flaw, Ma Hongjun's spirit is one of the most powerful Beast Spirits, and he's also the dean's direct disciple. We can't let him give up on cultivation or watch him explode to death!”
Xiao Wu didn't ask after hearing this, her attention returning to Tang San, raising her hand to touch Tang San's chest, Tang San was startled by her,”
Xiao Wu's eyes were slightly red, You got hurt because of me.”
"Are you hurt?" Yi Deng asked.
Tang San reacted that Xiao Wu was referring to his injuries, smiling as he shook his head to appease his little brother and sister,”
"Little Yi, look at your brother and your sister-in-law, they're so loving and loving, how lively.”
Yi Deng looked pensive, then looked into Dai Mubai's eyes,”
"What is it?" I'm devoted to you! Dai Mubai jumped in fright, almost saying, Let's go!"
Tang Wunian nodded with slight disappointment. What a blockhead. Then, the group returned the way they came.
Shrek's group chatted and laughed as they returned. The atmosphere in a certain residence in the city was not as relaxed.
Anthony was drenched in cold sweat as he knelt in front of a man in a black robe. Looking at the gray fog floating in front of the man, a trace of fear flashed in Anthony's eyes.
"Very good." A hoarse voice came from behind the black robe. He didn't expect to see such a rare creature in such a small place. It was rare to see such a creature with brown hair and strange eyes. Anthony's body trembled, but he felt relieved. Eden, just you wait and see!
If you want to snatch my man, I'll let you have a taste of being toyed with. When that lord is tired of playing with you, you'll have to wait for the outcome of having a pair of jade arms that can be used by ten thousand people!
" Sir..." Before Anthony could finish his sentence, the black-robed man came up to him." Didn't you say you wanted to treat your injuries? Let me take a look."”
Anthony endured the pain and revealed a few parts of his body that were injured.
A skinny hand reached out from the black robe, but the strength was not to be ignored. Anthony was in so much pain that cold sweat broke out on his forehead, but he did not dare to let out any cries of pain.
"It looks like a kitten with claws, but I like it.”The black-robed man slowly came to a conclusion. He could not see how the wound was caused at all. He could only cut off the flesh. The black-robed man mercilessly cut off three bloody things from Anthony's body. Anthony fainted from the pain.
The black-robed man ignored Anthony, who was on the ground. He scattered some powder to dissolve the flesh in his hand, then picked up the golden light spot inside. He released his soul power, and the light spot turned into an extremely thin needle." Interesting…"
==================
When the group returned to Shrek Academy, they were surprised to see two people outside the academy's main gate.
Tonight's moonlight was very good, and with the help of the moonlight, they immediately recognized that it was Oscar and Ning Rongrong waiting here.
Ning Rongrong's mood seemed to have already returned to normal, a gentle smile once again hanging on her pretty little face. He sat on a large rock at the entrance of the academy, swinging his legs as if he was deep in thought.
And Oscar's expression was somewhat ugly, his brows slightly furrowed, from time to time stealing glances at Ning Rongrong, his eyes revealing a somewhat unwilling light.
Yi Deng frowned. Did the new girl bully Little Ao when he wasn't around?
"What are you doing here?" Dai Mubai walked up to them, opening his mouth to ask.
Ning Rongrong jumped down from the rock. "Of course I was waiting for you. Why did you come back so late? Where are the dean and Fatty?"
Dai Mubai politely replied,"They're busy, come back later, you've thought it through?" Stay or leave?"
The dean told him about the matter, Ning Rongrong's nature wasn't bad, they still hoped she could stay, auxiliary system Spirit Masters becoming powerful was equivalent to having a cheat, the dean couldn't bear to part with this fragrant cake.
"Of course I'm staying, this is such a fun place, how can I just leave like that?"”
Yi Deng didn't pay attention to Ning Rongrong, walking straight up to Oscar, wanting to understand what was going on, but before he could ask, Ning Rongrong angrily spoke first.
"What's with that expression? Do you really dislike me that much?”Ning Rongrong, who had liberated her nature, after suffering Flender's anger, didn't like anyone. Seeing that Yi Deng didn't pay attention to her, she didn't shy away from directly shouting.
They were all startled, then looked at Ning Rongrong. Right now Ning Rongrong was just a stranger to Yi Deng, they were already used to Yi Deng's expressionless face, if one day Yi Deng showed an expression to a stranger it would be like seeing a ghost, this Ning Rongrong was really spoiled by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Dai Mubai's expression directly sank. His own child hadn't been fierce before, this Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School little girl actually dared to directly get angry at Little Yi, did she think he, Dai Mubai, was dead?
Yi Deng stopped Dai Mubai, who wanted to step forward, and then walked in front of Ning Rongrong. He hadn't even gone to find trouble with her, and she had unexpectedly bumped into him. Was this a problem with her aura,"Ning Rongrong, don't challenge my patience. This is Shrek Academy, not your home, don't try to anger me."”
Ning Rongrong giggled, but didn't care at all: "I'm so scared!"
"Afraid?" Yi Deng's eyes were a little cold. He respected women, but that didn't mean he could tolerate a woman throwing a tantrum on him.
With a slight movement of her wrist, the sleeve arrow brushed past Ning Rongrong's delicate little face, scaring Ning Rongrong so much that her face turned pale.
"Xiao Yi." "We're all classmates, forget it."”
Ning Rongrong had never suffered such a loss since she was young. She hadn't thought that Yi Deng would actually dare to attack her. Even though she wasn't really injured, at this moment her heart was even more uncomfortable.
"Alright, Tang San, I'll give you face.”"You better remember, this isn't your home, don't provoke me again, otherwise, I don't care what your identity is.”
Throwing down these words, Yi Deng held Oscar in one hand and Dai Mubai in the other, heading straight for the Academy.
"Ning Rongrong, in this world, not everything can be exchanged with money and power. This is the Academy, and also only the Academy, we're all classmates. If you continue to have this kind of attitude and that lofty feeling the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School gives you, then, I advise you to leave.”
"You…, do you know how powerful our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is?”Ning Rongrong unwillingly glared at him.
Tang San smiled indifferently. He and Yi Deng were both people with memories of two lives, how could he be understood by this twelve year old girl in front of him, So what if he didn't know? What does this have to do with me? Xiao Wu, let's go."
Shaking his head somewhat regretfully, Tang San and Xiao Wu also walked into the Academy. He understood Yi Deng's temperament, so there was naturally a reason for targeting Ning Rongrong like this. Even though he hadn't guessed it yet, it didn't stop him from being on Yi Deng's side. His little brother naturally had to be constantly protected.
Looking at their departing backs, Ning Rongrong's entire body stiffened.
Since young, she had always been raised in the palms of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's big shots, and her self-centered thoughts had long since formed. But after receiving so much stimulation today, she felt doubtful, could it really be that I was wrong? Why are they all treating me like this?
"Perhaps what Tang San said is right, what I did was wrong, friends don't come this way.”Ning Rongrong hugged her leg and muttered, not moving for a long time.
"Little Ao, did that Ning Rongrong bully you?”Yi Deng asked Oscar as soon as he entered the academy, his face a bit more serious but also a bit cute. You dare to bully the person I'm protecting? Do you think you're living too comfortably?
“……”
Merely knowing that Little Yi targeted Ning Rongrong for a reason, just not expecting it to be like this, Oscar and Dai Mubai smiled at each other, both seeing the smile flashing in each other's eyes.
"Little Yi, don't think too much about it. In the academy, the person who can bully me, Oscar, has yet to be born!”Oscar patted Yi Deng's shoulder heroically, his mood indeed much better.
Besides Oscar's special spirit, his brain was even more terrifying. As an intelligent person, what would he choose when he knew that something couldn't be done? Do you know how difficult it is?
No, he was not that persistent. Sometimes, giving up was the best choice.
Just a woman, he, Oscar, wasn't weak to the point of not being able to hurt her.
Oscar grinned as he moved closer to Dai Mubai's side and whispered,”
"Hurry up and leave!" "Wait until Fatty comes back, Young Master will let him properly comfort you injured from the breakup!”
"Boss Dai, I was wrong!" Oscar began to wail like a ghost and howl like a wolf. Yi Deng looked at him speechlessly, then turned around and returned to the dormitory without any reluctance. He thought he had been bullied, but it was already good enough that he didn't bully others with such vigor!
"Xiao Yi, wait for me!"
Oscar quickly followed. Little Yi was tired from the day and should rest well. It was better not to waste time here. Tonight, he would squeeze into the same dormitory with Boss Dai and the others. Wouldn't staying together with Fatty, who had vented his evil fire, agitate a bachelor like him?
==========
Dai Mubai followed Yi Deng back to the dormitory, chasing Oscar back to his dormitory and then closing the dormitory door, turning around to pounce on Yi Deng.
"Bang-"
The human-shaped object fell onto the bed. Yi Deng walked over to another bed with a helpless expression. "Mubai, I want to sleep."
"Go to sleep!" Dai Mubai saw that Yi Deng was already starting to get a little confused, and stopped making a fuss,
A good night's sleep.
After Yi Deng woke up and tidied up, he went out with Dai Mubai. Arriving at the dormitory next door, Yi Deng stopped for a moment, seeing Ma Hongjun already tidying things up quietly. Oscar hadn't slept today but was instead cultivating, only still not awake. Ma Hongjun quietly walked out of the dormitory, saying goodbye to Yi Deng and Dai Mubai and then went out together.
Ma Hongjun looked refreshed, as if his entire body weight had lightened a few jin.
"Mubai, little Ao started cultivating at night, are you sure he's fine?”Yi Deng looked at Dai Mubai with uncertainty, knowing that staying up late to cultivate was fine.
"Little Yi doesn't know about this, right? Lovelorn is sometimes a good medicine, and the effect is unexpected.”Ma Hongjun said meaningfully. In terms of falling out of love, who had more experience than him, Ma Hongjun?
Tang San and Xiao Wu had already arrived when the three reached the dining hall. After greeting them, the few of them sat down and began to eat.
Until almost finished eating, Oscar and Ning Rongrong still hadn't come to the dining hall.
The bell for class rang. Everyone hurriedly finished their breakfast and went to the large sports field.
Neither the dean nor the teachers had arrived, but there was already one person on the field, Ning Rongrong.
Ning Rongrong's fair and beautiful little face looked somewhat haggard, her eyes red, her spirit seemingly very low.
Today it was still dean Flender who taught them. Tang San's group waited for a quarter of an hour before this dean walked over.
Flender's gaze first fell on Ning Rongrong, but he didn't say anything to her, Did he sleep in again?"
" He was still cultivating when he came out this morning," Yi Deng said with a paralyzed face." Perhaps he was in a meditative state and didn't wake up in time."”
"Today's class, without him we can't attend, Mubai, go call him.”
Yi Deng vaguely guessed what class they were going to have today, and he glanced at the newcomers with a mischievous look. They would have a lot to see in a while.
Dai Mubai was just about to return to the dormitory when he saw Oscar hurriedly running over from the dormitory direction. However, his face didn't show the panic of being late, instead it was filled with excitement.
"Oscar, do you want to run laps again?”Dean Flender glared at him.
"No, Dean, listen to my explanation, I broke through, I reached the thirtieth rank."”
"What?" Not only Flender, everyone simultaneously cast astonished gazes at Oscar, including Ning Rongrong.
Oscar was a year younger than Dai Mubai, he was also only fourteen years old, fourteen reaching thirtieth rank spirit power, this was already a rather shocking number, even more importantly, Oscar was a food system spirit, belonging to the most difficult type of spirit to cultivate.
In a sense, his thirtieth rank was much more difficult than a Battle Spirit Master's thirtieth rank, and with every increase in food system Spirit Master's strength, the effect of food support would be greatly enhanced.
On the Douluo Continent, thirtieth ranked Spirit Masters were already relatively rare. If they joined the army, they could enjoy the treatment of a great captain commanding a thousand people, or even higher. Fortieth ranked Spirit Masters were even rarer, fiftieth ranked and above food system Spirit Masters were even rarer, and sixtieth ranked and above food system Spirit Masters practically never appeared. Even if there were, it would be great clans or places like Spirit Hall that could only nurture one for many years.
Reaching thirtieth rank also meant that the food provided by a food system Spirit Master would have a third attribute, which would greatly increase the help to a team.
"Good, good, good, Oscar, you didn't disappoint me. You're the fourth student to reach the thirtieth rank, I congratulate you on behalf of the Academy.”
Ma Hongjun was somewhat dumbfounded. He was only playing with Yi Deng. Could it be that falling out of love could help a Spirit Master's spirit breakthrough?
"Alright. Today's class begins now." Flender's voice pulled everyone back from congratulating little Ao.
"Today's lesson is very simple. Oscar, you're today's main character. Today's lesson, besides Oscar, each of you must eat at least one of the two types of sausages made by Oscar's spirit power.”
"What?" Xiao Wu cried out in alarm at Flender's words. "Dean, what class is this?"
"This is called adaptability training, let me ask you, is life more important or face more important? When you can only choose one of the two, which one will you choose? Even though Oscar's spirit incantation is a bit vulgar, I said yesterday that he is a food system Spirit Master with innate full spirit power, extremely talented. The spirit sausages he makes are the best food system spirits I've ever seen. During the academy, he's one of you, you'll be training together, if you can't reach a tacit understanding with him, you'll be wasting your best support partner.”
"At the same time, this is also training your mentality. If you can't even do this, how can you survive in the Spirit Master world in the future? In order to survive, one had to resort to unscrupulous means. When one's life was in danger, even rats, cockroaches, and earthworms had to be eaten, let alone a sausage.”
Hearing Flender's last words, the faces of the two girls present simultaneously paled, clearly unsightly, especially Ning Rongrong, already having the desire to vomit.
Yi Deng snickered behind Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun quietly pulled him, didn't he see the dean's gaze already drifting over?
"This lesson is something that every one of you must do. Otherwise, there's no need to stay. Don't doubt my decision. On the first day each of you arrived here, someone told you that Shrek Academy cultivates monsters, not ordinary people.”Flender's gaze swept over, using his expression to tell the students in front of him that no one could think of getting away with it.
Oscar was already laughing in his heart, his eyes clearly revealing a wretched light.
If he could, right now he really wanted to go up and hug Flender and kiss him a few times, inwardly saying, Dean, I love you too much, Flender doing this, not only to let everyone have a sense of recognition towards him. To Oscar himself, it was also a kind of extreme satisfaction in his heart.
Oscar simultaneously stretched out his two hands, laughing mischievously, chanting his spirit incantation.
"I have a big sausage."
"I have a little sausage."
One thick and one thin, two sausages with completely different flavors appeared in Oscar's palm. Laughing mischievously, Oscar first handed it to Yi Deng, then made two more sausages,”
Yi Deng nibbled on the sausage, smiling as he stood to the side to watch the show. Dean Flender was right, this guy's food system spirit was indeed outstanding.
Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun had both attended similar classes before. Even though they felt somewhat uncomfortable, just as the two were about to step forward and finish today's class, someone beat them to it.
"I'll do it." Accompanied by a clear voice, Ning Rongrong strode in front of Oscar, both hands reaching out, separately picking up his big and small sausages.
Yi Deng finished the remaining sausage in two or three bites, then looked at Ning Rongrong. No one had expected Ning Rongrong to actually take the lead. Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun's steps also stopped. They both wanted to see if Ning Rongrong would eat Oscar's spirit sausage.
Ning Rongrong's expression was very calm, only her eyes full of unwillingness betrayed her heart, she was after all still a little girl. How could he hide his emotions completely?
Oscar's promotion to the thirtieth rank was equivalent to further stimulating Ning Rongrong's heart, so she was the first to step out. Facing Ning Rongrong's gaze, Oscar suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, ignoring Dai Mubai's fiery gaze and leaning on Tang Wunian to gain a sense of security.
Ning Rongrong picked up the big sausage and fiercely bit into it. That appearance was truly somewhat ferocious. Seeing her expression, Oscar clearly felt some part of his body go numb, subconsciously hugging Yi Deng and taking a step back.
" Little Ao…" Yi Deng was also frightened. Why did he look like the Tang Sect's little princess? He shook off the goosebumps all over his body and blocked Oscar in front of him." Your taste is really special."”
"Xiao Yi, don't talk nonsense!" "Who doesn't have a time when they're young and frivolous?"”
“……”
Ning Rongrong ate Oscar's big and small sausages in two or three bites, and after the sausages entered her stomach they immediately became a warm current that spread throughout her body. After a night without sleep, the already very tired her clearly felt her spirit rouse, her body seemingly filled with strength.
Born in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, food system spirit or something. Ning Rongrong naturally had seen it before, and also eaten it, but none of the food system spirits she had eaten before could produce an effect as fast as Oscar's big sausage. Even a fortieth ranked food system Spirit Master couldn't do this, this was completely a matter of spirit talent.
Oscar probed,"Are you hungry?"
Ning Rongrong licked her pink red lips, her face revealing a gentle smile,”
Oscar once again hugged Yi Deng to gain a sense of security, no matter how he looked at it he felt Ning Rongrong's smile was a bit like the smile of a devil.
Ning Rongrong turned around, her gaze sweeping over each student one after another, finally stopping on dean Flender. She used her actions to prove that she had the right to stay.
Dai Mubai couldn't bear it any longer and separated Yi Deng and Oscar, then looked at Oscar with a sinister smile,”
"Boss Dai…" Oscar wanted to cry but had no tears to pull Yi Deng back. Little Yi, come back quickly, I can't handle it alone ~
Dai Mubai looked at Oscar, eating his big sausage bite by bite, and with that sinister look, Oscar's whole body went cold, throwing a pleading look at Flender. Flender pretended not to see, pushing Ma Hongjun to the front to eat the sausage. Fortunately Fatty had a conscience, and didn't make things worse for Oscar.
Ma Hongjun ate Oscar's sausage and sausage one after another, and Tang San the fourth walked out, somewhat helplessly picking up Oscar's fourth spirit.
Somewhat astonished looking at Oscar, Tang San's understanding of him had clearly changed somewhat.
Xiao Wu somewhat imploringly looked at Tang San, as if saying, can you not eat?
"It's alright, the taste isn't bad, you can just treat it as food bought on the street.”
Xiao Wu was extremely unwilling to be the fifth to go out. She ate the two things with her eyes closed.
Flender nodded with satisfaction, saying: "Alright, I'll do it. All of you have passed today's lesson, you must remember, from now on when you are together, Oscar is your logistics supply, forget those meaningless spirit curses, preserve your life, let yourself become stronger, display your full strength, even surpassing your level, is the most important. Now, each of you go back to prepare, you have a day to adjust and rest, tomorrow morning, all of you set off. Teacher Zhao Wuji will lead you to the Star Dou Great Forest to help Oscar obtain his third spirit ring. This isn't just Oscar's personal matter, but also all of your experiential learning. Before encountering a thousand year spirit beast, teacher Zhao won't easily take action. Everything depends on you. Alright, you are dismissed.”
Everyone returned to their own dormitories. Even though they were all geniuses of the younger generation, including Ning Rongrong this proud daughter of heaven, everyone knew the importance of spirit rings to them. To become powerful, besides one percent of talent, there was also ninety-nine percent of hard work. Even though that one percent was even more important, how could that ninety-nine percent be saved?
"Little Yi, tomorrow we're going to Star Dou Great Forest. What kind of spirit ring do you think I should obtain to be more suitable for the sausage's auxiliary effect?”Oscar did not need to adjust himself anymore. He only needed to wait for tomorrow to arrive. The moment he returned to the dormitory, he could not help but ask Tang Wunian excitedly.
Yi Deng pointed at Tang San. He knew what kind of existence Tang San's teacher was, even though his own teacher's ability was even better.
Several people discussed Oscar's third spirit ring, in one day everyone also didn't have too much to prepare, the next day early in the morning, after eating breakfast, when everyone gathered on the field, Zhao Wuji was already there waiting for them.
===================
Seeing everyone present, Zhao Wuji said some things to take note of, then said: "Alright, everyone go. Mubai, you lead the team.”
Dai Mubai nodded, his expression immediately becoming serious, saying to the others: "Star Dou Great Forest isn't a place to play around. There are many spirit beasts inside, and they all have extremely strong offensive abilities, and they don't have any good feelings towards us humans. Everyone must be careful. Tang San, you'll be at the front. Oscar, Ning Rongrong, you two follow behind Tang San. Fatty, Xiao Wu, you two on the left and right sides, me and Yi Deng at the back. After entering the forest, you must maintain this formation even more, always on guard. Everyone set off.”
Zhao Wuji quietly flashed to Yi Deng's side, If anything happens, Xiu Nuo will definitely tear me apart. Your father can't touch you, but your father can tear Mubai apart. Little ancestor, be honest!”
Yi Deng looked at Zhao Wuji with a paralyzed face, his eyes full of accusation. Did he look like someone who would cause trouble? Was that so? Was that so?
After Zhao Wuji finished speaking, he just watched from the side, not joining in their lineup, walking out of the Academy together with the seven students. Of course there was no carriage ground here, once out of the Academy, everyone began to run forward.
With Oscar's sausages as a supplement, this bit of running consumption actually didn't count for much. Eating one Oscar spirit transformed sausage every hour, everyone's energy could always be maintained, even Ning Rongrong could barely keep up with everyone's pace.
Without real use, one would never understand the importance of auxiliary spirits. Oscar also because of the wonderful effect of his sausage, made everyone look at him in a different light and received the best treatment. Because they hadn't yet entered the forest, Dai Mubai and Tang San took turns holding Oscar's arm, sharing a portion of his weight as they advanced, allowing him to more easily recover his spirit power to continue his auxiliary role.
Ning Rongrong naturally didn't receive such treatment. She appeared very silent, along the way she also didn't use her Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda to give everyone a supporting effect, her entire person becoming very silent, neither rejecting Oscar's sausage, nor using her spirit, vaguely, seemingly isolating herself from the entire small group.
Yi Deng frowned, supporting Ning Rongrong to share some of her burden. Since they were already a group, there absolutely couldn't be any estrangement. Ning Rongrong's psychological estrangement was better resolved as soon as possible.
Ning Rongrong was clearly distracted when Yi Deng came over, giving him a complicated look, but she didn't refuse Yi Deng's help.
Zhao Wuji looked on with a smile, fortunately Mubai didn't notice now, however, in a while it might not be so.
Star Dou Great Forest was located southeast of Balak Kingdom, with a very small portion bordering Balak Kingdom, and Suotuo City itself was also southeast of Balak Kingdom, not far from Star Dou Great Forest, only less than five hundred kilometers, so this was naturally the best choice for Shrek Academy students to obtain spirit rings.
With the assistance of Oscar's sausages, in merely a day's time, when night fell, the Shrek Academy party had already hurried over four hundred kilometers, already very close to Star Dou Great Forest.
Seeing that they couldn't reach their destination today, Zhao Wuji gave the order to rest, because they had just arrived at a small town, and if they continued forward, it would be hard to say whether they had supplies or not.
Right now, Dai Mubai finally noticed Tang Wunian and Ning Rongrong's close contact, smiling with a gentle face, Dai Mubai pulled Oscar to Tang Wunian's side,”
Then pushing Oscar forward, Dai Mubai pulled Yi Deng away. Any man or woman who could possibly be love rivals had to keep their spirits up, his Xiao Yi was so outstanding, who else could match up to him?
The awkward Oscar looked at the equally awkward Ning Rongrong, rubbing his nose, explaining the situation a bit. Ning Rongrong suddenly realized that Dai Mubai had regarded her as a love rival.
After this little episode, Ning Rongrong also no longer had the mentality of an invisible person. She began to gradually integrate into the team, releasing the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda to eliminate fatigue for the few of them, and then smiling to Xiao Wu's side.
The few of them looked at each other in surprise. They couldn't be happier that Ning Rongrong could integrate into this group, but they hadn't expected her to untie the knot in her heart so quickly.
The small town was about three times the size of the village where Shrek Academy was located. Other than the lack of city walls, this place was actually like a small city. There were many shops on the streets, and there were all kinds of shops.
The main business scope of the shops here was unexpectedly all related to Spirit Masters, such as some specialized in selling weapons, selling armor, selling antidote, recovery medicine, and even clothes. They all sold special clothes with a dozen pockets that could hold a lot of junk, suitable for Spirit Masters to use on adventures.
"The so-called relying on mountains to eat mountains, relying on water to eat water, I'm afraid this is the truth. This small town clearly relies on the Star Dou Great Forest to survive, around the Star Dou Great Forest, there are probably quite a few towns like this.”
"But, this place is still nearly a hundred kilometers from Star Dou Great Forest, isn't it a bit far?”
"You must have gotten used to going to the country's captive spirit beast forest, those captive spirit beasts are all relatively gentle, not too active in attacking humans, Star Dou Great Forest's kind of wild spirit beast gathering place isn't the same, spirit beasts are not only ferocious in number, moreover some spirit beasts on the periphery often even walk out of the forest range, if the town is too close to Star Dou Great Forest, I'm afraid it's not good.”
"As expected, you've become a bookworm!" Yi Deng curled his lips and silently complained, then pulled Dai Mubai's sleeve, This place was close to the forest, so there wouldn't be any danger!”
Would it be dangerous to be near the forest?
Hehe, that was true for Yi Deng. Humans were far more of a threat to him than soul beasts.
Zhao Wuji slapped Yi Deng on the head, staring at Yi Deng with wide eyes. What did he say when he came? Yi Deng put down the hand holding Dai Mubai, aggrievedly hiding behind Dai Mubai.
Dai Mubai saw Yi Deng's blue eyes filled with grief and heartache, and hurriedly began to comfort him. Zhao Wuji rolled his eyes, pointing to a very ordinary looking hotel in front, saying: "We'll stay here and rest for the night. We'll leave tomorrow morning. You'll pay for the accommodation and food.”
Zhao Wuji threatened Yi Deng again, then turned around and left.
Shrek Academy was not wealthy to begin with. Like Zhao Wuji, Flender and the others who had no income, their financial situation really wasn't very good, and their son Tang San and the others instead had Spirit Hall's subsidies, their daily expenses were naturally enough.
The hotel was a small two-story building, the first floor hall was a simple dining room, the second floor accommodation, Zhao Wuji opened a single room for himself and went straight upstairs. After Dai Mubai and everyone briefly discussed, they opened two double rooms, Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong two girls one, Dai Mubai and Yi Deng one, and a triple room for Ma Hongjun, Oscar and Tang San.
"Let's eat first before going up. I'm going to vomit after eating sausages for a day.”Ma Hongjun spoke everyone's thoughts, and the seven people found a table in the corner to sit down.
"Do you want to call teacher Zhao to eat together?”
"No need, even though teacher won't pay any fees for us coming out, he won't accept any benefits from us either, this is the rule set by dean Flender.”
"Isn't it quite good like this? Everything is clear, what I like most is the Academy's unpretentious feeling."”
Yi Deng raised his chopsticks expressionlessly." Order!”
"Damn Fatty, cut the crap, you order, you're the best at eating.”
"Then isn't it your treat today with the highest subsidy, you're a big shot."”
Dai Mubai gestured, as long as he could pacify Yi Deng, treating was nothing.
Ma Hongjun instantly understood. Yi Deng's mood wasn't good, just a good meal was enough, it was so easy to coax. Yi Deng was definitely an unparalleled genius in combat, but he would always reveal his true self to those he trusted.
Afterwards Dai Mubai looked at the circle of people,"Treating isn't a problem, everyone being able to go to school together at Shrek can also be considered fate, I'm the oldest, today's meal can be considered as Tang San and the others 'welcome.”
Ma Hongjun laughed loudly, the fat on his chubby little round face trembling,"Good, very good, don't worry, boss Dai, I won't let you save.”
Very soon, Fatty showed everyone Dai Mubai's evaluation of him as "good at eating", calling over the waiter, swiftly ordering a dozen dishes.
"Not bad, not bad. Although this place isn't big, there are quite a lot of things here. I hope the taste can be of a certain standard.”
Dai Mubai helplessly said: Apart from spending his allowance on women, he eats the rest. I really suspect that if you weren't a Spirit Master, you would definitely be a cook.”
"Fatty will be a good cook." Yi Deng silently interjected.
The seven people sat around a table, the atmosphere still considered harmonious. Even though Ning Rongrong still couldn't quite let go, Yi Deng had an unhappy expression, but Yi Deng had Dai Mubai watching, and Ma Hongjun was here joking, the atmosphere soon became fiery hot.
The dining hall was currently already sixty to seventy percent full. At this moment, a group of people suddenly walked in from outside. Somewhat similar to Tang San's group, there were also eight of them.
Leading them was a middle-aged man who appeared to be in his forties, his appearance also considered handsome, his hair combed extremely brightly, his moon-white Spirit Master robe even more exquisite, embroidered with silver threads, flickering with light as he moved.
Following behind the middle-aged man. Six men and one woman, seven youths, all around twenty years old, wearing the same moon white Spirit Master robes, only without the silver thread embroidered on the middle aged man furthest in front, but whether it was the middle aged man or the seven youths behind, on their left shoulders there was a blue ring mark, within the ring were embroidered two words of the same color, Blue Brilliance.
It could be seen from their attire that these people were clearly Spirit Masters. Tang San's party wore very casually, looking no different from ordinary people, and these people were much more flamboyant.
The restaurant owner saw them enter. Hurriedly greeting him, nodding and bowing in an unspeakably polite manner, just as Oscar said. This small town depended on the Star Dou Great Forest for food, in short, it depended on Spirit Masters for food. Spirit Masters were not only a noble profession, but also a rich profession, the boss naturally didn't dare to be careless.
"That chick looks pretty good, boss Dai, these guys should be Blue Sunshine Academy's.”Ma Hongjun's small eyes stared fixedly at the only young girl in the group of eight. It had to be said that that girl was indeed somewhat beautiful, and could be considered above average.
Even though Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong were beautiful. However, they were still only about twelve years old. Compared to a fully developed teenage girl. But to a youth of Ma Hongjun's age, a little more mature girl was clearly more attractive, and adding to that his body of evil fire, his eyes naturally shone, fiercely staring at her non-stop.
They were all used to Ma Hongjun's unmoving appearance when he saw beautiful girls, and also didn't have any reaction, only Dai Mubai curled his lips,”
Whether it was Fatty or Dai Mubai, neither of them deliberately lowered their voices. Spirit Masters 'hearing was naturally better than ordinary people, and even though the dining hall was somewhat noisy, the middle aged man among the eight still cast his gaze over, frowning slightly. When he saw that Shrek Academy's table was only a group of children, his expression immediately became even uglier.
Oscar sat next to Tang San, laughing softly: "There's going to be a good show."
Tang San somewhat doubtfully glanced at him,
"This is also a part of our cultivation. Dean Flender said before, Spirit Masters who don't dare to stir up trouble aren't good Spirit Masters. As the saying goes, those who don't dare to stir up trouble are mediocre. Moreover, provoking Spirit Master Academy's people is the safest, at most it'll be fighting.”
Tang Wunian did not put down the chopsticks in his hand. He glanced at Blue Sunshine and the others before continuing to wait for the food. He did not take those people seriously at all.
Tang San couldn't help laughing, looking at Xiao Yi's appearance as if already used to it,"Our dean's words added together can also form a monster's words. Looking at their age, this Blue Sunshine Academy should be an advanced Spirit Master academy.”
The Blue Sunshine Academy's eight people had already sat down by now, separated by two tables from Shrek's side. Tang San saw from the corner of his eye that clearly teacher middle aged man whisper two times in the ear of a youth. Very quickly, that youth stood up from his seat, walking towards Tang San's table. According to the route he walked, it was precisely towards Dai Mubai.
Dai Mubai's evil eyes revealed a trace of disdain. Tang San could see it, so he naturally wouldn't not know, but he didn't even look at the other.
At this moment, the waiter just happened to bring the first dish to their table.
Yi Deng's eyes were filled with anticipation as he looked at the food. Suddenly, the Blue Sunshine Academy youth suddenly quickened his pace, and in the middle of the waiter's exclamation, he just happened to bump into that waiter, watching as that dish was about to come crashing down on Dai Mubai's head.
"Don't waste food." Tang San said coolly, his left hand reaching out like lightning, stabilizing the waiter's body, his right hand stretching out, just enough to hold the plate. Using Controlling Crane Catching Dragon strength, he was still able to absorb the food without spilling a bit, lightly placing the plate on the table, at the same time, his left hand also already pulled the waiter to the side.
"Do you want to provoke me?"
Saying so he stood up and glared angrily at the Blue Sunshine Academy youth who had come to find fault. Wasn't it just a meal, did he have to fight to eat?
The Blue Sunshine Academy youth stared blankly for a moment. Because of the waiter's cover, he didn't see Tang San's movements clearly, but, his face very quickly revealed a sly smile,”
