Dai Mubai threw back his head and let out a roar, instantly boosting his side's morale. He then charged at the enemy first. The White Tiger Body Protection Barrier activated, shrouding his entire body in golden light. Combined with his unstoppable momentum, he looked utterly intimidating.

At the same time, the Shi Family Brothers flanked him from both sides. Their First Soul Rings flashed as they prepared to block Dai Mubai's attack.

Just then, Dai Mubai's tiger claws swept toward the Shi Family Brothers' heads. The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda's enhancement arrived right on cue, raising his strength and speed to another level.

The Shi Family Brothers suddenly tucked in their heads, easily evading the attack. Dai Mubai's strike could only land on their turtle shells, sending sparks flying.

At that moment, a massive Blue-Purple lightning claw shot toward Dai Mubai from behind the Shi Family Brothers.

Meanwhile, Yufeng swooped down from the air toward Dai Mubai's back, intending to sever the Blue Silver Grass.

Tang San reacted swiftly and pulled Dai Mubai straight back.

He Qiang did not continue pursuing them. He knew very well that advancing alone into enemy territory was the most dangerous thing to do.

Seeing that He Qiang had not taken the bait, Tang San reacted immediately. Under the Blue Silver Grass's control, Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu, and Dai Mubai surrounded Osler, while Little Fatty blocked Yufeng's path.

At this critical moment, He Qiang was the first to react. His Second Spirit Ability, Thunderous Force, bolstered by his Third Spirit Ability, Wrath of Thunder, struck directly at Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai, intending to eliminate them first.

Even so, he concentrated most of his attacks on Zhu Zhuqing alone. He Qiang understood clearly that aside from Tang San, the only thing that threatened them was the Hell White Tiger. As long as either Dai Mubai or Zhu Zhuqing was taken out, the Martial Soul Fusion Skill could not be formed.

Dai Mubai's Third Spirit Ability, White Tiger Vajra Transformation, and Second Spirit Ability, White Tiger Fierce Light Wave, activated simultaneously. He had been about to attack Osler, but upon seeing He Qiang's lightning heading for Zhu Zhuqing, he stepped in front of her without hesitation.

Osler was about to seize the chance to flee, but in the next instant, Zhu Zhuqing appeared before him. Her Second Spirit Ring flashed, and Nether Hundred Claws activated.

Osler's Third Spirit Ring also lit up quietly. Leopard Shadow Clone allowed him to evade Zhu Zhuqing's attack, but he had forgotten that Xiao Wu was still there.

Osler himself was merely an Agility Attack System Soul Master. Though his Soul Power exceeded Xiao Wu's by several levels, Xiao Wu was an Assault-type Battle Soul Master, and she had the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda's enhancement. Before Xiao Wu's First Soul Ring skill, Waist Bow, he had no ability to resist and was struck heavily.

At the crucial moment, Yufeng's First Soul Ring flashed. Wing Blade activated, knocking Xiao Wu aside and saving Osler before carrying him back to the rear.

Just then, the Third Spirit Ring on Wang Haochen, who had not moved until now, shone brilliantly. His emerald-green eyes turned purple, and he opened his mouth, spewing out a dense cloud of poisonous mist that rapidly spread toward the Shrek Seven Devils.

"Everyone, come back." Tang San shouted, pulling Dai Mubai, Zhu Zhuqing, and Xiao Wu, who had wanted to continue attacking, behind him. Then every member of the Shrek Seven Devils ate a Detoxifying Sausage made by Oscar.

"It's only the Jade Phosphorous Serpent among the Jade Phosphorous Five Poisons. Watch me break your snake venom." As he spoke, Tang San took out two waterskins from Twenty-Four Bridges Moonlight Night and hurled them forcefully into the air. At the same time, he shouted, "Boss, White Tiger Fierce Light Wave! Fatty, Phoenix Fire Line, activate!"

The Shrek Seven Devils' coordination allowed Dai Mubai and Little Fatty to attack immediately. However, a figure caught the two waterskins before them and then flew away into the distance. It was Yufeng.

When they had discussed their tactics earlier, He Qiang had pointed out the weakness of Jade Phosphorous Purple Poison: Realgar Wine. The one responsible for dealing with it was Yufeng.

As long as he seized the waterskins before they were broken, they would have nothing to fear from the Jade Phosphorous Purple Poison.

"Dugu Yan, show mercy." Qin Ming's anxious voice suddenly rang out.

"Don't worry, we know our limits," Wang Haochen said.

At that moment, in the rear of the Imperial Fighting Team, petals from Zheng Bei's hand fell onto Osler's body, causing his wounds to heal at a visible rate.

Very quickly, Osler regained his fighting strength.

The Shrek Seven Devils' expressions changed. He Qiang's refusal to fall into their trap had already put them at a disadvantage. Yet even after switching their target to Osler first, they had exhausted all their strength. But in just a short while, Osler had completely recovered.

Moreover, the Jade Phosphorous Purple Poison was gradually invading their bodies. Although Oscar's Detoxifying Sausages had alleviated its effects, if they were not treated quickly, they would soon melt into pus.

At that moment, the Imperial Fighting Team stuffed something into their mouths. Then He Qiang charged forward at the front, with the Shi Family Brothers close behind. Osler attacked Zhu Zhuqing from the flank, while Yufeng dove straight at Ning Rongrong.

They could not panic. That was the first thing Tang San realized.

The Imperial Fighting Team's ability to adapt was terrifyingly strong. Whether it was their initial trap or the use of Realgar Wine to counter the snake venom, everything had been neutralized one by one.

But that did not mean they had no chance at all.

Dai Mubai's White Tiger Vajra Transformation and He Qiang's Wrath of Thunder had not been withdrawn. Now, they collided once again.

With Ning Rongrong's support, Zhu Zhuqing tangled with Osler, while Little Fatty contended with Yufeng. At this moment, the only ones free were Tang San and Xiao Wu. The opponents they faced were Wang Haochen and the Shi Family Brothers.

The Shi Family Brothers' Second Spirit Rings lit up. The turtle shells on their chests and backs immediately flew into their hands, transforming into shields.

Then the two hurled their Turtle Shell Shields. Using yellow Soul Power to control them, they sent the shields spinning forward with piercing shrieks.

Under the effects of the Jade Phosphorous Purple Poison, the Shrek Seven Devils were gradually showing signs of defeat. Although Oscar's little sausages had decent poison resistance, they were only a Second Spirit Ability and could not compare to Wang Haochen's Third Spirit Ability.

At this moment, the one relatively better off among the Shrek Seven Devils was Zhu Zhuqing. Osler's previous injuries had healed, but his Soul Power had not recovered. Even so, Osler still completely suppressed Zhu Zhuqing. After all, there was also the Jade Phosphorous Purple Poison.

As for Little Fatty, he too was being forced back. Though the Phoenix ranked above the Wind Chime Bird, the gap in their Soul Power was simply too great for him to contend with.
