Twin Martial Souls? Tang San's Shock!
Facing Tang San's Hidden Weapon attack, Oscar did not move at all. Six Flying Sword had returned to his side at some point, and the sharp sword light swept past, completely blocking more than ten Hidden Weapon attacks.
Ten explosions rang out almost simultaneously, and ten streaks of cold light were completely blocked by Oscar. Tang San's Hidden Weapon did not cause any damage to Oscar.
Tang San was secretly astonished. He had fired ten Bone-Piercing Nail -Bone-Piercing Nail, which were among the heaviest of small Hidden Weapon. Even with his Internal Force and the penetrating properties of the Bone-Piercing Nail, they hadn't managed to inflict any damage on Oscar. Such powerful attack, without even using Soul Skill, made Dai Mubai's assessment that he was flawless quite reasonable.
However, Tang San was not discouraged. He turned around and threw more than ten cold lights at Oscar.
"Flawless?" A cold glint flashed in Tang San's eyes. In his view, the so-called flawless was actually full of flaws. Only by exploiting one of them could he have an opportunity.
However, the prerequisite is that he can make a breakthrough; otherwise, it's all just empty talk.
As he retreated, Tang San's hands moved like butterflies flitting among flowers, flicking and snapping, with streaks of cold light shooting out from his hands, targeting Oscar's vital points.
Willow Leaf Knife, Flying Locust Stone, Money Dart, Bone-Piercing Nail —all sorts of Hidden Weapon bloomed in Tang San's "All-Heaven Flower Rain" technique. Some flew straight, some flew diagonally, and some circled around to his back, but their ultimate target was always the same: Oscar's body.
Oscar did not choose to dodge Tang San's Hidden Weapon- like attacks, nor did he move his feet even an inch. Instead, the six Flying Sword him suddenly burst out with even stronger sword energy and shot out.
In the blink of an eye, the sounds of metal clashing together rang out one after another. When the sounds disappeared, Oscar's figure still stood there upright. Within a meter of him, countless iron weapons Hidden Weapon had been cut down and scattered all over the ground.
Upon seeing this, Tang San's pupils also contracted, and he admired Oscar's methods even more.
Having lived in this world for twelve years, this was the first time he had encountered Soul Master as powerful as Oscar, who was also so skilled in using his Martial Soul.
"Is this what a genius Soul Master is like, reaching level 47 at the age of fourteen? Truly impressive!" Tang San couldn't help but murmur to himself. "But my forte isn't just throwing Hidden Weapon, it's real mechanical Hidden Weapon!"
In an instant, Tang San suddenly raised his hands, his muscles contracted, and a buzzing sound immediately came from Tang San's sleeves. A burst of cold, gleaming Steel Needle, accompanied by a thick mist, spewed out from Tang San's sleeves, heading straight for Oscar's face.
He and Oscar weren't too far apart at the moment. The instant Oscar released the mist, a thick fog carrying the aroma of tea spread out. However, Oscar wasn't worried about being poisoned at all, because he was already immune to Immune to All Poisons.
Faced with Tang San's latest attack with Hidden Weapon, Oscar skillfully manipulated the five Flying Swords to form a sword formation in front of him, giving Tang San no chance to attack him at all.
At the same time, he wielded the Frost Moon Sword and charged directly at Tang San. Oscar realized that although Tang San's Hidden Weapon were powerful, they posed no threat to him, so Oscar simply stopped playing around.
The Frost Moon Sword arrived in an instant. This time, Tang San had no way to dodge it. It was understandable that he had tried to block it with countless Blue Silver Grass, but his Blue Silver Grass were simply too fragile and could not withstand the edge of the Frost Moon Sword at all. They were torn apart in an instant.
Just as the Frost Moon Sword was about to pierce through Tang San's body, a strong burst of Soul Power suddenly erupted from Tang San's left hand, and a small black hammer appeared in his hand without him even noticing.
The small black hammer looked unremarkable, but it seemed quite heavy. Tang San swung it forcefully, and this seemingly insignificant little hammer actually knocked the incoming Frost Moon Sword away! Oscar, seeing this, feigned surprise and frowned slightly. "Twin Martial Souls?"
Upon hearing Oscar's question, Tang San instantly realized that he had been careless. Could it be that the secret of his Twin Martial Souls was about to be exposed?
However, in the heat of the moment, he had no better way to dodge or defend against Oscar's Frost Moon Sword, so he couldn't help but use his Second Martial Soul.
The Frost Moon Sword was knocked away. Although Oscar was somewhat "surprised", his attack did not stop. After the sword formation composed of five Flying Sword blocked Tang San's mechanical Hidden Weapon attack, it once again attacked Tang San.
Tang San had already exhausted a large amount of Soul Power and used almost all the available methods, but he still couldn't put any pressure on Oscar, and he didn't even touch the skin of the other party.
Even though Tang San was an extremely proud person, at this moment he had to admit Oscar's strength, so strong that he couldn't muster the slightest thought of resistance.
With this in mind, Tang San did not hesitate to withdraw his Second Martial Soul, pretending it was just a weapon. Then he activated a large amount of Blue Silver Grass to wrap around his body, attempting to withstand Oscar's attack for a while.
He glanced at it out of the corner of his eye and saw that there was still one-fifth of the incense burning. If he just held on for a few more minutes, the incense would burn out completely.
Tang San desperately wants to enter Shrek Academy. He wants to study and compete with super geniuses like Oscar and others! So no matter what, he will not easily admit defeat.
However, Oscar had no intention of continuing this charade. Five Flying Sword instantly pierced through the Blue Silver Grass and were positioned across Tang San's neck, chest, face, and knees. Just like when Tang San threw Hidden Weapon at Oscar earlier, they were aimed at fatal spots.
Faced with such a deadly threat, Tang San stopped what he was doing, looked at the incense stick that was almost completely burned out, and sighed slightly.
"We... lost..."
Ning Rongrong was somewhat displeased by this scene, but she couldn't say anything because Oscar's strength was simply too great. She could even see that Oscar had been sparring with Tang San the whole time, taking the initiative to receive Tang San's attacks.
However, although Tang San's attack methods were flashy, they did not seem to have any effect on Oscar.
This reminded Ning Rongrong of a saying by Grandpa Sword: "In the face of absolute power, any skill is illusory!"
"So... so powerful..." Ning Rongrong couldn't help but exclaim.
Oscar glanced at Tang San indifferently, then waved his hand to retract his Martial Soul, and the Flying Sword that were attacking him also dissipated as Soul Power light.
Oscar's voice rang out calmly. "The three of you are not bad, but you still lack teamwork. However, your combat skills are quite good. Although you did not officially pass my test, you are qualified to enter Shrek Academy. Congratulations."
Upon hearing this, Tang San and Ning Rongrong were stunned for a moment, then both were overjoyed. Ning Rongrong still asked in disbelief, "It... it passed?"
Oscar nodded. "But don't get too excited yet. Shrek Academy isn't easy to get into. You'll have to go through the most rigorous training until you become a qualified Soul Master."
Upon receiving confirmation once again, Tang San could hardly contain his excitement. Only Shrek Academy with such a reputation was truly worth joining!
However, his excitement quickly faded, because Xiao Wu was still unconscious in the center of the Spirit Dueling Platform.
Tang San rushed to Xiao Wu's side and hugged her tightly. "Xiao Wu! Xiao Wu! Are you alright?! We made it!!"
Seeing Tang San's anxiety, Oscar said softly, "She's fine, she was just backfired by the Spiritual Power of her Second Spirit Ability."
As he spoke, Oscar took out a Super Recovery Great Sausage from his Soul Tool and tossed it to Tang San: "Give this to him, he'll be fine after a couple of days of rest."
Tang San took the Sausage, hesitated slightly, and then fed it to Xiao Wu. As soon as the Sausage entered her mouth, it turned into pure energy that flowed into her body. Xiao Wu's originally very pale complexion quickly improved, and after a while, Xiao Wu opened her eyes groggily.
"Brother? What's wrong with me? My head hurts so much..." Xiao Wu said groggily, clutching her head in Tang San.
Tang San saw Xiao Wu wake up and immediately pulled her into his arms. "It's alright... it's alright. It's my fault. I didn't protect you well..."
Oscar watched the so-called brother and sister's performance with a blank expression. After a moment of speechlessness, he said to Zhu Zhuqing on the platform, "Zhuqing, take Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong to the girls' dormitory later."
After saying that, Oscar turned to Dai Mubai and said, "Mu Bai, you take Tang San with you."
Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing agreed, and once Xiao Wu had recovered, the two of them took her to the dormitory.
Oscar and Dugu Yan were still in charge of the assessment, because in addition to the original Shrek Seven Devils, there were also people who signed up who were able to reach the fourth level, but they basically could not pass the practical assessment.
On the way to the dormitory, Tang San couldn't help but ask Dai Mubai, "Senior Student Dai, how old are you now?"
Dai Mubai smiled upon hearing this, "What? Feeling pressured after sensing Brother Ao's strength? I advise you not to have such thoughts. After all, he is a prodigy, and we don't need to compare ourselves with prodigies."
Tang San nodded upon hearing this. "I think it's only meaningful to compare yourself with someone like that."
Seeing Tang San's serious expression, Dai Mubai decided not to joke anymore and replied, "I am fifteen years old this year and my Soul Power is level thirty-nine. My talent is not comparable to Brother Ao's. His existence has completely overturned our previous understanding of Soul Master. However, it is precisely because of him that I and the other talents of our Shrek Academy have been able to achieve what we have today."
Hearing this, Tang San became even more curious about Oscar. Although Dai Mubai was also exceptionally talented, having reached level thirty-nine at the age of fifteen, Tang San seemed to think that no one else mattered compared to Oscar.
He had already experienced Oscar's strength firsthand, but as for overturning the previous understanding of Soul Master? Tang San did not feel that.
So Tang San raised his question again, "Senior Student, what do you mean? Senior Student Ao's strength is indeed the best I've ever seen, but isn't what you're saying a bit too exaggerated?"
Dai Mubai looked at Tang San's disbelieving expression and smiled, "It's okay if you don't believe me, I can tell you slowly."
Tang San replied earnestly, "I'm all ears."
At this moment, Tang San really wanted to learn about the deeds of geniuses like Oscar.
As a reborn person, this was the first time Tang San had felt such intense curiosity about someone his own age.
There was no other reason than that Oscar was only fourteen years old, yet his Soul Power Level was a terrifying forty-seven. This talent completely overturned the various cultivation theories of his teacher, Yu Xiaogang, making the knowledge Tang San had learned from Yu Xiaogang over the past few years somewhat insufficient.
Most importantly, Oscar's strength was equally terrifying; he won a complete victory against three opponents without even using his Soul Skill.
Most importantly, even though Tang San used all his trump cards, he couldn't even touch Oscar's clothes, or even make him move a step, before he was completely defeated.
Dai Mubai was not surprised by Tang San's reaction, after all, Brother Ao was also an unimaginable existence for him.
Dai Mubai has really changed a lot in the past three years, as evidenced by the fact that he is willing to call Oscar"Brother Ao".
Oscar now wields absolute power at the Shrek Academy, and even some of Flender's decisions are discussed with Oscar.
In Flender's eyes, Oscar, who was only fourteen years old, was no longer just a child, but someone just like them.
Dai Mubai explained, "Today you personally experienced Brother Ao's strength, but do you know that Brother Ao's Martial Soul is not the Frost Moon Sword? The Frost Moon Sword is actually Brother Ao's teacher's Martial Soul, while his own Martial Soul is the Food System Supreme Sausage."
Dai Mubai's words shocked Tang San once again. What did he mean by saying that Oscar 'Senior Student Martial Soul was not his Martial Soul, but his teacher 'Martial Soul? Tang San's own teacher was known as Grandmaster, someone who knew everything about Soul Master theory, but he had never heard of anyone being able to use his teacher's Martial Soul.
What do you mean by Senior Student Ao's Martial Soul being Food System Martial Soul? And what was that sharp sword that could just cut him in two? Am I Tang San things?
Seeing Tang San's somewhat dazed look, Dai Mubai continued to explain, "Don't worry, I'll explain it to you slowly."
Tang San nodded somewhat blankly. Even he was a little bewildered after hearing Dai Mubai's previous words.
Dai Mubai continued, "Brother Ao's Martial Soul is Food System, and he is also a super genius of Food System Innate Full Soul Power. The reason he was able to possess his teacher's Martial Soul is because of the effect of one of his special Soul Skill. I can't tell you the specifics right now; I need Brother Ao's permission before I can tell you."
"However, all you need to know is that although Brother Ao is a Food System Soul Master, his combat ability surpasses that of any other Soul Master of the same level, and even his support ability is unmatched."
"The Sausage you just fed your girlfriend is Brother Ao's First Spirit Ability — Super Recovery Great Sausage!"
Hearing this, Tang San finally had a general understanding of what kind of person Oscar was. However, Dai Mubai's last sentence made Tang San blush a little.
Tang San explained, "Ahem... Senior Student, Xiao Wu is not my girlfriend, she is my sister."
Hearing this, Dai Mubai glanced at Tang San in surprise, then simply smiled faintly, "Little sister, little sister is great, much better than a girlfriend."
Dai Mubai couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "A girlfriend is much harder to deal with than a sister..."
Please vote with your recommendations and monthly tickets! There's so much more I could write in these chapters, but you guys say I'm padding. Actually, I've already omitted a lot of things; what I've written so far is all foreshadowing for later chapters. It's really not padding, guys! By the way, do you want to see Tang San tortured or trained? I personally prefer training; after all, so many fanfics are about torture, and it gets boring if it's always torture.
Douluo Dalu Season 2 is Dog Training Master, and now I want to train him like a dog.
Finally, could you please give me some monthly votes?
