Tang San's Nickname, Three Kneels

"Your speed is sufficient, but your force is lacking."

"The focus of an agility-attack Spirit Master is not just on agility, but also on the attack."

"Without enough attack power, you are nothing more than a fast-moving target."

Ye Lin met Zhu Zhuqing's heterochromatic gaze.

She swung her sword down heavily with one hand, forcing Zhu Zhuqing back with a single strike.

She had not used her full strength; otherwise, Zhu Zhuqing's cat claws would have shattered just like Dai Mubai's tiger claws. Even so, the shock left Zhu Zhuqing's arms feeling numb.

"Thank you. I hope to receive your guidance again in the future, Sister Ye Lin."

After saying this, Zhu Zhuqing quickly left the Soul Fighting Arena and conceded.

In Ye Lin's view, the focus for both power-attack and agility-attack types should be on the attack; the only difference was that the power-attack type allocated their secondary attributes to defense, while the agility-attack type allocated theirs to speed.

When Ye Lin returned to the spectator stand and learned who the participants of the next match were, she was surprised again. It was another internal conflict between members of Shrek Academy.

Xiao Wu versus Tang San.

Dai Mubai teased, "Two internal conflicts in a row. This is the first time such a thing has happened in the history of Shrek Academy."

He looked at Tang San.

"Tang San, if you can't win when you get up there, just concede. Since we're all family, whatever you do, don't end up on your knees."

"I won't. Definitely not," Tang San said with an awkward smile.

He felt a bit of resentment in his heart. Can't we just move past this incident?

He kept bringing up other people's embarrassing moments.

However, Tang San did not show any of this. Saying more was useless; he would prove himself on the Soul Fighting Arena soon enough.

On the other side, the youthful-looking Xiao Wu had already hopped onto the Soul Fighting Arena. Her pink top, white trousers, and delicate face drew many eyes from the audience.

"Is this little girl here to participate in a soul fight too?"

"A Soul Grand Master? That seems a bit unlikely."

Voices of doubt rose continuously from the stands, but soon, even greater skepticism followed—though this time, it wasn't directed at Xiao Wu, but at Tang San.

"Let us welcome Xiao Wu's opponent, the Soul Grand Master Tang San. His spirit is Blue Silver Grass."

"Both of these are newcomers to our Soul Fighting Arena. Which one will emerge victorious?"

After the host finished the introduction, all the skepticism fell upon Tang San.

"This is also a Soul Grand Master? Are Soul Grand Masters these days all this young?"

"The two Soul Grand Masters in the previous match were also very young."

"This Tang San's spirit is Blue Silver Grass? Blue Silver Grass can be cultivated? And he actually reached the level of a Soul Grand Master?"

"I suddenly feel like this Tang San might be able to pull off some new tricks."

Those who originally had little expectation for this soul fight now found their interest piqued.

However, regarding this battle, most people still favored Xiao Wu, as Blue Silver Grass was, after all, a trash spirit.

Tang San didn't care about the audience's voices. The truth would be revealed once they exchanged blows. Although he wasn't Xiao Wu's match, he would still vindicate himself!

Tang San's first Spirit Ring flashed, and two blue-green vines quickly released from his palms, winding toward Xiao Wu.

Xiao Wu tapped her toes lightly on the arena floor, leaping to dodge the attack of the Blue Silver vines and charging rapidly toward Tang San.

Her offensive methods were only effective at close range.

Once she got close, her opponent would be finished in an instant.

Xiao Wu could not be considered a pure power-attack type; she was more like an agility-attack assassin.

The movement speed of the Blue Silver Grass vines could not keep up with Xiao Wu's speed at all.

As for Tang San's second spirit skill, there was no possibility of activating it; the vines couldn't even touch Xiao Wu's body, let alone plant grass seeds on her.

"In that case, there is only one way: a direct confrontation!"

Tang San thought to himself, abandoning control of the Blue Silver vines. He stepped into the Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track to attack head-on. Backed by the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record, his close-combat ability was also quite formidable.

Xiao Wu kicked toward Tang San. Tang San used the force of Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon to quickly deflect her right leg, simultaneously leaning his right shoulder toward her chest.

If this strike landed, Xiao Wu would certainly be sent flying.

However, this was only what he had anticipated.

He saw a faint smile appear on the corner of Xiao Wu's mouth.

First spirit skill, Waist Bow.

Tang San only felt a tremendous force slamming into his chest.

"Huh?"

Xiao Wu suddenly looked surprised, because Tang San did not fly away as she had expected. Instead, with a thud, he fell.

He knelt.

For a moment, everyone's face was filled with question marks.

"What is going on?"

"That Blue Silver Grass soul master Tang San actually knelt?"

"Incredible. To think something like this could happen in the Soul Fighting Arena. I've watched so many soul fights, but this is the first time I've seen such a thing."

"I have to say, this Blue Silver Grass soul master has really come up with a new trick."

"Tang San Kneels, hahahaha!"

Flender slapped a large hand directly against his forehead upon seeing this scene, nearly losing his breath and passing out on the spot.

Disgraceful, simply too disgraceful.

A student of Shrek Academy had actually knelt in the Soul Fighting Arena in front of everyone; where was he supposed to put the face of the Shrek Academy dean?

And to think he had already earned a nickname: Tang San Kneels!

If it weren't for the fact that Tang San was the disciple of Yu Xiaogang and the son of Tang Hao, he would have wanted to expel Tang San from Shrek Academy right then and there.

[Tang San was sent flying by Xiao Wu...]

[Tang San was knocked to his knees by Xiao Wu...]

With one simple act, Tang San had opened everyone's eyes once again.

Tang San swallowed hard, unable to fathom why he had knelt down;

Xiao Wu's force had clearly been directed upward, so why had he ended up kneeling!

"Don't think that just because you knelt to beg me to concede, I will actually concede."

Xiao Wu let out a cold snort, flew up, and delivered a kick, sending Tang San flying straight out of the Soul Fighting Arena.

"In this battle, the battle soul master Xiao Wu is the winner!"

Tang San struggled to climb up from the ground. Although he had been kicked away by Xiao Wu, the damage he sustained was minimal and only required a little recovery.

When he returned to the spectator stand where the Shrek Academy group was located, he immediately saw Flender's livid face.

Flender scolded him in a cold voice, "Is this your so-called proof?"

"Are your knees really that soft!"

Tang San was stunned, unable to utter a single word, nor did he know what to say. Pale and feeble excuses were useless; the fact remained that he had knelt, and he had done so in front of so many spectators.

"Losing in a battle is not scary,"

"If your combat awareness is lacking, you can train it, but a person cannot lack backbone!"

Flender slapped the chair and turned to leave, "Dai Mubai, once the soul fights are over, take them back."

"Yes, Dean."

Dai Mubai watched Flender's departure respectfully, then turned to look at Tang San with a hint of mockery, "Three Kneels..."
