Tai Long's Shock and Speculation, Ning Rongrong Defeats Tang San
"Gai Yue the Spiritual Jade Sword Sect, may I ask about you two..." Gai Yue smiled, his gaze calmly surveying the two of them.
The two exchanged a glance, a fleeting look of surprise in their eyes. The Spiritual Jade Sword Sect was a rising power on the continent, having gained a renowned reputation in just a few years since its emergence.
Moreover, when they returned to Spirit City some time ago, they seemed to discover that the Spirit Hall Saintess was now getting quite close to a disciple of the Sword Sect.
Although encountering people from the Sword Sect here was quite unexpected, the two quickly came to their senses and decided to act discreetly in the current situation, as that would only give others ammunition for criticism.
"Spirit Hall, Snake Lance."
"Martial Soul, Pufferfish".
Upon hearing their names, Gai Yue raised an eyebrow. He wasn't entirely familiar with the Titled Douluo of the Spirit Hall, and these two were people he had never heard of.
However, this cannot be blamed on Gai Yue. After all, he spent the first half of his life cultivating alone in seclusion, and had no opportunity to learn about or come into contact with many things on the mainland.
Noticing Gai Yue's expression, the two revealed their identities and then said, "Our reputation is not known on the mainland, so it's normal that you haven't heard of us."
"Today we are here with our young master to hunt for Soul Ring. If there is no conflict, please allow Brother Gai Yue to proceed."
Hearing this, Gai Yue just smiled. Oscar, who was standing to the side, glanced at Qian Renxue fighting the Soul Beast in the distance, then looked away and said to Gai Yue, "Teacher, let's leave."
Gai Yue nodded, and then the master and apprentice changed direction on their Flying Sword and disappeared from the spot in a short while.
To be honest, Oscar really wanted to get to know Qian Renxue, not because of her beauty, but because of her current status.
However, now is clearly not the right time. Although the Snake Lance and the Pufferfish were not very polite, it was better not to start a conflict now, lest the Spirit Hall become seriously wary of them later.
The clone is currently very close to Hu Liena, and while they've managed to extract a lot of information, the most important thing is that the little fox has been won over. It seems that the girl is a bit love-struck and, once she's set her sights on Ao Yue, she won't let him go.
Oscar was a little embarrassed to keep lying, fearing things would get messy later.
The reason Oscar spent a period of time having sex with Dugu Yan every day was because his clone was being harassed by Hu Liena, but Oscar didn't intend to touch her, lest he soften his heart later.
So although Ao Yue was flirting with Hu Liena, he behaved with propriety and kept his relationship within bounds. He was a true gentleman, which pleased even the old woman Bibi Dong, and almost made Hu Liena swoon.
The chance encounter with Qian Renxue was just a minor incident, because although Oscar wanted to get closer to Qian Renxue, he hadn't found a good opportunity yet, so it all came to nothing.
Ma Hongjun returned on the tenth day after he left. He obtained his Fifth Spirit Ring through his own strength, and his Soul Power Level reached level fifty-two.
The advantage of absorbing Soul Ring of a higher level is that it not only enhances the Soul Master's foundation and strength, but also allows the Soul Master's Soul Power Level to break through to a higher level, saving more time.
The same applies to Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing. With their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Hell White Tiger, it was not difficult for them to hunt Soul Beast and obtain Soul Ring. However, it took them half a month to find suitable Soul Beast.
After successfully obtaining the Soul Ring, Dai Mubai also reached level 52, catching up with Ma Hongjun.
However, Ma Hongjun is not yet fourteen years old, while Dai Mubai is almost seventeen, with a three-year age difference between them.
Zhu Zhuqing also increased her Soul Power by two levels, reaching level 42. The couple's strength improved significantly, which meant that their Martial Soul Fusion Skill would be even more powerful.
In the following period, the Shrek Team members began special training under Oscar's guidance, mainly to get the newcomers, such as Tai Long, more comfortable with each other.
However, Oscar's training methods were hard for Tai Long and the other three to believe. Ning Rongrong and Jiang Zhu, who were Support System Spirit Master, actually needed to undergo combat training, and it was to fight against other Soul Fighting Masters.
After everyone got to know each other and had several team Soul Fighting, Tai Long and the others learned that Ning Rongrong's Martial Soul was the top-tier Support System Martial Soul, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. However, on this day, Ning Rongrong and Tang San went up to the Spirit Dueling Platform.
The Martial Soul released by Ning Rongrong was actually Ma Hongjun's Evil Fire Phoenix! Seeing this, Tai Long and the others thought they were seeing things.
They then looked at Ning Rongrong in shock, thinking that Ning Rongrong was actually Twin Martial Souls possessor.
However, Dai Mubai kindly explained to them that Ning Rongrong did not possess Twin Martial Souls; it was merely the effect of Captain Oscar's Fourth Spirit Ability.
Only now did they realize that Oscar was actually just a Support System Spirit Master, and that he hadn't even used his Martial Soul when Oscar beat up Tai Long? As everyone knows, Support System Spirit Master have very low combat power; compared to Support System Spirit Master Battle Spirit Master of the same level, their combat power is practically zero.
At that time, Tai Long was level 35. With his terrifying strength, even a Support System Spirit Master at the Spirit King level would only be able to get beaten up when facing Tai Long.
However, Oscar defeated him without even using his martial Martial Soul.
This news undoubtedly shocked Tai Long and the others, as they had never heard of any Support System Spirit Master possessing such terrifying combat power.
Dai Mubai simply smiled at this, indicating that it wasn't just Tai Long and his group who were like this; Dai Mubai and his group were the same back then.
Some extraordinary beings are just like that; they cannot be judged by common sense.
Tai Long and the others finally accepted the fact that Oscar was Support System Spirit Master after Dai Mubai's thoughtful explanation, but they were soon shocked again.
This time it's because of Tang San on the Spirit Dueling Platform. Tang San's Martial Soul is Blue Silver Grass. Although Blue Silver Grass is considered Trash Spirit, in Tang San's hands, it doesn't look like a Trash Spirit at all. After all, Tai Long was defeated by this Trash Spirit.
However, Ning Rongrong's Martial Soul at this time was the Evil Fire Phoenix, and her Soul Power Level had reached level thirty-nine. The Blue Silver Grass, which was originally supposed to restrain Tai Long, had almost no effect on Ning Rongrong.
Just when Tai Long and the others thought Tang San had lost and that Oscar had arranged a boring duel, Tang San put away his Blue Silver Grass and took out a dark hammer.
Upon seeing this, Tai Long's eyes widened in disbelief. "Ha... Clear Sky Hammer?!"
Tai Long's voice trembled slightly. He was uncertain, but this was the Clear Sky Hammer he had seen since he was a child! His grandfather had a deep affection for the Clear Sky Hammer. Although Tai Long now clearly knew about the Clear Sky Sect's injustice towards them, his grandfather still had a special fondness for the Clear Sky Hammer. A portrait of the Clear Sky Douluo still hung in his grandfather's study, and Tai Long was already tired of looking at that majestic and domineering Clear Sky Hammer.
Therefore, Tai Long will not admit his mistake.
Upon hearing Tai Long's words, Jing Ling, Huang Yuan, and Jiang Zhu were all stunned for a moment, followed by the same shock.
Tang San's Twin Martial Souls were already surprising enough, but what shocked them even more was that Tang San's Second Martial Soul was actually the Clear Sky Hammer.
However, the combination of the Trash Spirit Blue Silver Grass and the top-tier Weapon Spirit Clear Sky Hammer is truly chilling.
However, compared to the surprised Jing Ling and the other two, Tai Long had more to think about, because a few months ago, Haotian Douluo Tang Hao came to the Power Clan, and the other party even personally guided his cultivation.
However, now that the Clear Sky Sect has gone into seclusion, Clear Sky Gate members have not appeared on the continent for many years, Tang San's identity has puzzled Tai Long.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through Tai Long's mind, an unbelievable idea popping into his head. "Could Tang San be the son of the His Excellency Haotian?"
Tai Long was both excited and surprised, but he dared not make a sound at the moment, because Tang Hao had already warned them that his identity must be kept secret and no one was allowed to reveal it.
Tai Long felt he might need to take a leave of absence and go home, since Tang San might really be Tang Hao's son.
And even if that's not the case, as long as Tai Long brings this news back, his grandfather will definitely reward him.
If it's the other side, then it's good news for Tang Hao, isn't it? After thinking for a moment, Tai Long's gaze returned to the Spirit Dueling Platform. Tang San was still being suppressed because his Clear Sky Hammer didn't have any Soul Ring attached, while Ning Rongrong was not only using the top-tier Martial Soul, the Evil Fire Phoenix, but her own Soul Power Level had also reached level thirty-nine.
If Ning Rongrong hadn't been inferior to Tang San in combat experience and skills, Tang San might have already lost.
However, Tang San is not without the ability to fight back. He has now mastered the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer to the point of Forty-Three Hammers. As long as he can complete the charging, he will have the ability to fight Ning Rongrong.
However, this was not Ning Rongrong's first duel with Tang San. At the beginning, Ning Rongrong was almost always countered by Tang San, but now, she has vaguely mastered the fighting techniques to counter Tang San.
The biggest limitation of the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer is that if it is interrupted in the middle, it cannot continue to charge up. Therefore, Ning Rongrong seized the opportunity and released her Third Spirit Ability: Phoenix Cloud-Piercing Strike!
Ning Rongrong's attack angle this time was extremely tricky. She first used Phoenix Fire Line to limit Tang San's Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track's evasion range, and then her Third Spirit Ability left Tang San with no way to avoid it.
If Tang San wanted to withstand Ning Rongrong's full-force attack, he had to fully activate the Chaotic Wind.
However, Tang San was already at the edge of the Spirit Dueling Platform. The power of Phoenix Cloud-Piercing Strike was incredibly strong. With Ning Rongrong's full power of her level 39 Soul Power, Tang San managed to withstand the fatal blow, but he was also knocked off the Spirit Dueling Platform.
In the end, Ning Rongrong won the duel.
Despite his defeat, Tang San was not discouraged. Instead, he smiled and said to Ning Rongrong, "Rongrong, congratulations. I am no longer a threat to you."
Ning Rongrong smiled slightly, "Third Brother, don't say that. The reason I was able to win was because of the limitations of the venue and the suppression of Soul Power Level. Otherwise, I might not have been able to beat you!"
For Tang San, this defeat was actually expected, because Ning Rongrong's advantages were indeed significant: a top-tier Martial Soul, Soul Power Level of 39, and various factors such as Martial Soul counterplay. As long as the opponent mastered combat experience and skills, his chances of turning the tide were very small.
Tang San was delighted by Ning Rongrong's progress. In just a few months, her combat experience and skills had greatly improved, and it was no surprise that she could now use the terrain advantage to defeat him.
However, Tang San understood even more clearly that if his Clear Sky Hammer were now equipped with Soul Ring, defeating Ning Rongrong would not be difficult. Knowing all this, Tang San was a little excited, because he had already begun to imagine the scene of his Clear Sky Hammer having all Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring in the future.
Moreover, according to Oscar's speculation, it is very likely that his Blue Silver Grass Spirit will complete its first evolution once it absorbs a suitable Soul Ring, at which time his strength will also be greatly improved.
Therefore, he will not limit himself to the present, nor will he think about imposing Soul Ring on the Clear Sky Hammer for quick success.
It must be said that in this aspect of teaching, Tang San felt that Oscar was indeed much better than Yu Xiaogang was back then.
Yu Xiaogang only taught theory; in many ways, Tang San was just a Xiao Bai, the first experiment.
On the other hand, Oscar's approach combines theory and practice, and the things he put into practice are all things that Oscar himself has already affirmed.
Tang San and Ning Rongrong left the stage, and Jiang Zhu and Huang Yuan entered. This was Jiang Zhu's first time experiencing a real battle, and the Copy Sausage she used was made with Zhu Zhuqing's blood.
Jiang Zhu had almost no experience in combat, but although she was a little nervous, she did not back down. After all, she had already learned from Ning Rongrong's experience, and she really wanted to be like Ning Rongrong and have the ability to stand on her own.
Soul Fighting began, Jiang Zhu wasn't very familiar with the Spirit Abilities of her Martial Soul Hell Spirit Cat, but Huang Yuan didn't immediately go all out. Instead, he guided Jiang Zhu in the fight.
Oscar, who was standing nearby, would also offer advice to Jiang Zhu on what to do next, so that she wouldn't be at a loss.
This battle with Jiang Zhu is meant to help her gradually adapt to these things, and there will be more targeted training and instruction afterward.
In this regard, Ning Rongrong can be a very good role model.
Another point is that Tang San exposed his Twin Martial Souls in front of Tai Long and the others. At first, Tang San wanted to hide them, after all, Tang San and Yu Xiaogang had told him that he should not easily expose the Clear Sky Hammer.
However, after talking with Oscar, Tang San felt that although what Tang Hao and the others said was correct, it did not align with his own thoughts.
His Twin Martial Souls are an advantage, which he used in his regular training. He also diligently cultivated the Chaotic Wind, otherwise he wouldn't have reached the level of Forty-Three Hammers.
Tai Long and the others are now members of the Shrek Team, they can be considered as one of our own, so it's actually acceptable for Talon to reveal himself in front of them.
Moreover, Oscar would warn them that if anyone revealed the secret of Tang San's Twin Martial Souls, they would be kicked out of the Shrek Team.
And most importantly, can Tang San really guarantee that he won't use the Clear Sky Hammer?
The upcoming Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament will be a gathering of geniuses, with talented and capable geniuses from all over the continent appearing one after another. If his Blue Silver Grass cannot win against strong opponents, will he have to admit defeat?
When Oscar asked him this question, Tang San asked himself honestly, and he realized that he was even more unwilling to lose than to expose his Twin Martial Souls.
Furthermore, Oscar also said that the most important thing for Soul Master is belief. Without an unwavering belief in victory, how can one reach a higher realm? PS: Typos will be corrected later.
