Meeting Tang San Again, Crushing Him with Ease
Dai Mubai and the others stared in shock at the six Soul Rings rising from beneath Lin Chen's feet, their eyes filled with disbelief.
Purple, purple, black, black, black, red!
Among the three jet-black, Ten Thousand Year Soul Rings, the blood-red Soul Ring stood out conspicuously, radiating a suffocating pressure.
The Soul Emperor's aura enveloped the entire street as if it were a tangible force, and pedestrians on the roadside had already kept their distance, not even daring to peek out.
Dai Mubai's White Tiger phantom trembled under the oppressive force. Looking at the Soul Rings at Lin Chen's feet, Dai Mubai felt for the first time how insignificant and fragile he was.
Oscar stood behind, the sausage in his hand already squeezing out of shape, his expression changing from tension to fear.
He tugged at Dai Mubai's sleeve, his face filled with terror, and said, "Boss Dai, we can't afford to mess with this guy. We'd better run!"
Ma Hongjun shrank behind Dai Mubai, all his arrogance gone, and dared not utter a sound.
But it wasn't them who truly changed their expressions.
Tang San stared at Lin Chen's face, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he froze.
His gaze swept over Lin Chen's Soul Rings, then fell back on Lin Chen's face, and long-forgotten memories flooded back into his mind.
The handsome young man before him was none other than the boy who had easily defeated him at the Nuoding Academy.
He still remembered that day when his prized Tang Sect Hidden Weapons was easily countered by the other party, who then used it to cripple his mentor, Yu Xiaogang.
He still remembers the scene when Yu Xiaogang was dragged away from the academy by soldiers. At that time, he was pale and didn't even have the strength to struggle.
He stood by and watched, but there was nothing he could do. Afterwards, he inquired everywhere about Yu Xiaogang's whereabouts, but to this day he still doesn't know whether his mentor is alive or dead.
Memories flooded back, a mixture of fear and anger that instantly gripped Tang San's mind.
He feared Lin Chen because the other party's strength far exceeded his expectations, but he hated Lin Chen even more for crippling Yu Xiaogang and for making him lose face in Nuoding City.
He trembled for a long time before taking a step forward and saying in a deep voice, "It's you! How did you end up here!"
Lin Chen glanced at him, a casual smile on his face, "Just passing by. Why are you seeing my face? Does it remind you of Yu Xiaogang?"
Upon hearing this, Dai Mubai and Oscar turned sharply to look at Tang San, their faces filled with surprise.
"Xiao San, do you know the person on the other side?" Dai Mubai asked in a low voice in surprise.
Tang San gritted his teeth, his eyes fixed on Lin Chen, and said with a face full of grief and indignation, "Of course I know him, and we have a grudge!"
Ma Hongjun shrank back, his earlier arrogance completely gone.
He originally thought that Dai Mubai and Tang San's arrival would allow him to get revenge, but he didn't expect that the opponent was not only a Soul Emperor, but also had an old grudge against Tang San.
He quietly took half a step back, pondering whether he should find a chance to slip away.
"But don't worry, I have no intention of beating you up."
Lin Chen smiled and shook his head, looking at Tang San and Dai Mubai standing side by side, and then withdrew his Martial Soul.
The six Soul Rings disappeared into his body, and the Soul Emperor's pressure dissipated. The pedestrians on the surrounding streets who had been struggling to breathe finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After calming his breathing, Lin Chen said indifferently, "We don't need to bring up the past. Yu Xiaogang has received the punishment he deserved, so I can't be bothered with you."
Just as Dai Mubai and the others breathed a sigh of relief, Lin Chen spoke up again, "However, we can't just let the matter of Ma Hongjun harassing Lingling go like this."
After saying this, Lin Chen turned to Dugu Yan beside him and said, "Yan Yan, beat them up. I'll take responsibility if anything happens."
Dugu Yan nodded, took a step forward, and activated her Jade Mountain Poison Dragon Martial Soul Possession. Dark green dragon scales covered her arms, and the aura of a level 48 Soul Ancestor was fully released.
"Damn it, do we still have to fight?" Seeing that a battle was unavoidable, Dai Mubai and the others immediately got into fighting stances.
Dai Mubai unleashed his White Tiger Martial Soul to its fullest extent, white tiger fur emerging from under his skin, his hands transforming into tiger claws, attempting to withstand the power emanating from Dugu Yan.
Tang San forcibly suppressed his emotions, and the Blue Silver Grass spread out from his palm, heading towards Dugu Yan.
Although Ma Hongjun's legs were still trembling, he released his Martial Soul, and the crimson flames of the Evil Fire Phoenix rose and burned around his body.
Dugu Yan didn't waste any words with Tang San others. With a leap, she transformed into a streak of emerald green and rushed towards Dai Mubai.
"White Tiger Fierce Light Wave!" Dai Mubai saw Dugu Yan rushing over and unleashed the White Tiger Fierce Light Wave, a white beam of light blasting towards Dugu Yan's head.
Dugu Yan dodged to the side, the beam of light grazing her shoulder. Without even glancing at it, she threw a punch at Dai Mubai's chest.
Dai Mubai blocked with his tiger claws, but not only was there a huge difference in their Martial Souls, their Soul Power Levels were also worlds apart.
He was knocked back five or six steps by the punch, the dark green Soul Power on the tiger's claws corroding his fur, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Tang San attacked from the side, and Blue Silver Grass spread out from the ground, wrapping around Dugu Yan's legs.
With a surge of Soul Power beneath Dugu Yan feet, the Blue Silver Grass was completely corroded by the poisonous mist emanating from her body before it even touched Dugu Yan.
Tang San's expression changed, and before he could retract his attack, Dugu Yan slapped him backhand, sending Tang San flying and crashing into the wall deep inside.
Oscar was about to summon sausages to assist Dai Mubai, but before he could even make a move, Dai Mubai was punched in the abdomen by Dugu Yan again, and he knelt on the ground.
When Ma Hongjun saw Dai Mubai kneel, he turned to run away. Xiao Wu's eyes flashed with a cold light, and she flashed in front of him to block his path.
With a sudden burst of power, she kicked Ma Hongjun into the air. Then, she flashed again, slamming her right leg into Ma Hongjun's abdomen, driving him deep into the ground.
In just over ten breaths, the Shrek Seven Devils, who had been so aggressive, were easily defeated.
Dugu Yan dusted off her hands, and together with Xiao Wu, she put away her Martial Soul. She then turned to look at Lin Chen.
Lin Chen slowly stepped forward and squatted down in front of Ma Hongjun. Ma Hongjun raised his head from the mud, his face covered in bruises, blood still dripping from the corner of his mouth, and his eyes filled with terror.
Lin Chen looked at him and said coldly, "If I find out you dare to harass someone again, you can forget about having that thing down there."
Ma Hongjun's face turned pale instantly, and he unconsciously covered himself with his hands. His lips trembled, and he couldn't utter a single word.
Lin Chen stood up, waved to Dugu Yan and the others, and said, "Let's go back. I'll treat you to a big meal today."
"Yay!" Xiao Wu jumped up excitedly, a joyful smile on her face.
Ma Hongjun lay on the ground for a long time after Lin Chen and the others left before he finally managed to get up.
"I refuse to accept this! I refuse to accept this!" Ma Hongjun gritted his teeth, his face full of anger. "So what if that kid has a high Soul Power Level? What's so great about him? Boss Dai, we can't just let this go."
Dai Mubai got up from the ground. The corrosive marks on the tiger's claws were still throbbing. He glanced in the direction Lin Chen and the others had left, a hint of ferocity flashing in his eyes.
"We're from Shrek Academy, of course we can't let this go!" Dai Mubai said in a deep voice. "Let's go find Dean Flender and have him teach that brat a lesson."
