With Spirit Share fully activated, Qian Yu let Ning Rongrong and the others see everything clearly. Sword Douluo wanted to step forward and capture the two Spirit Beasts, but Qian Yu stopped him. "Senior Sword Douluo, don't rush into action. There are other teams nearby."
Qian Yu shared the location of another group with Sword Douluo. Hearing this, Sword Douluo paused, then said with some amusement, "I didn't expect there to be other experts here."
Qian Yu, Xiao Wu, and Ning Rongrong exchanged glances. Ning Rongrong said helplessly, "What rotten luck. We actually ran into those Shrek people."
"Shrek people? Rongrong, you know this group?" Hearing that they were from Shrek, Sword Douluo asked Ning Rongrong with some annoyance.
"Yes, Senior Sword Douluo. The one in blue is Tang San, and the one with blond hair and white-and-gold clothes is Dai Mubai."
"The one in red is Ma Hongjun, and the one wearing glasses with a full beard is Oscar."
"As for the two middle-aged men, the one with a buzz cut and a full beard is Yu Xiaogang."
"The last one, broad-backed and burly, is Shrek's teacher, Zhao Wuji."
Qian Yu beat them to it and introduced the group to Sword Douluo.
"Oh! Then it really is a case of enemies meeting on a narrow road." Sword Douluo looked at Ning Rongrong and Qian Yu with a hint of amusement.
At the same time, Sword Douluo began assessing their strength.
Tang San was Level 30 and had yet to obtain his third Spirit Ring. Dai Mubai was Level 37. Ma Hongjun was Level 28, while Oscar was Level 30 and had yet to obtain his third Spirit Ring.
Yu Xiaogang was Level 29, and Zhao Wuji was a Level 76 Soul Saint.
"Tsk. I have to say, these Shrek students are pretty capable." Sword Douluo couldn't help praising them.
"Hmph, Grandpa Sword, what's so great about them?"
"Just look at us. I, Ning Rongrong, am eleven years old and Level 38. Zhuqing is eleven and Level 40. Sister Yanzi is fifteen and Level 40. Xiao Wu is twelve and Level 30."
"Brother Qian Yu is fifteen and Level 49."
"Which one of us doesn't have better talent than them?" Ning Rongrong said, unconvinced. When she got to Qian Yu, she gazed at him with practically worshipful eyes. Then she flew over and tugged on Sword Douluo's arm. How could Sword Douluo resist Ning Rongrong's coaxing?
He immediately surrendered. "Hehehe. Of course, of course. They can't compare to you."
"Compared with them, you're monsters among monsters."
One was a roughly two-thousand-year-old Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, and the other was a roughly five-thousand-year-old Man Faced Demon Spider.
The bear's roar and the spider's shrill hiss rang out together. The Terrorclaw Bear's claws tore brutally into the spider's back, sending dark, viscous blood spraying onto the ground, where it sizzled;
Meanwhile, the spider silk clung tightly to the bear's claws, only for the Terrorclaw Bear to rip it apart with brute force, tearing away the flesh of its palm as well. Golden-red blood dripped from its paw.
Boulders flew and broken trees lay scattered across the mountain forest. Blood mist billowed through the air. The two Spirit Beasts had long since fought themselves into a frenzy. A spider leg had slashed open the bear's belly, leaving a wound deep enough to expose bone. The injuries across the spider's back were even more fatal, with three of its eight legs already broken and its movements slowing. Every collision was accompanied by their piercing howls. They were already at the end of their strength, on the verge of mutual destruction.
Nearby, a group watched the battle between the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear and the Man Faced Demon Spider from hiding. Yu Xiaogang, with his buzz cut, addressed the Shrek group.
"Xiao San, Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, Oscar, these two Spirit Beasts are a roughly two-thousand-year-old Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear and a roughly five-thousand-year-old Man Faced Demon Spider."
"Neither is suitable for you as a Spirit Ring."
"If Xiao San hadn't insisted, I would never have let him choose that two-thousand-year-old Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear for his third Spirit Ring."
Yu Xiaogang explained the theoretical knowledge of Spirit Beasts to everyone.
At the same time, he tried to stop Tang San from choosing the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear as his third Spirit Ring.
But Tang San was determined. He had personally seen Qian Yu obtain a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear Spirit Bone before, and the pressure to catch up with Qian Yu had made him want to risk absorbing a Spirit Ring beyond his limit.
Tang San said sincerely to Yu Xiaogang, "Teacher, I know my own physical limits. I want the Spirit Ring of that two-thousand-year-old Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear. Besides..."
Tang San didn't finish what he was saying.
But Yu Xiaogang knew exactly what he meant.
The rest of the Shrek group, however, thought the teacher and student were acting strangely.
The battle between the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear and the Man Faced Demon Spider was nearing its end.
Both Spirit Beasts were barely clinging to life.
At that moment, Yu Xiaogang instructed Zhao Wuji, "Teacher Zhao, protect Xiao San."
Then Yu Xiaogang said to Tang San, "Xiao San, now's your chance. Go get your third Spirit Ring."
Yu Xiaogang gave them both their instructions.
"Okay."
Tang San used Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, his Purple Demon Eye lighting up as he quickly approached the two-thousand-year-old Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.
Just as Tang San released his Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul and turned it into a spear, ready to finish off the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear,
Qian Yu, Ning Rongrong, and the others stepped out.
"Brother Qian Yu, Grandpa Sword, stop Tang San!" Seeing Tang San about to snatch the Spirit Ring from them, Ning Rongrong immediately called for Qian Yu and Sword Douluo to stop him.
Sword Douluo prepared to strike Tang San with his sword.
But Qian Yu moved first, summoning his Martial Soul, the Desert Eagle, and bringing it into his hand.
"Bang, bang..." He fired two shots at Tang San's Blue Silver Grass.
After all, at seven steps away, a gun was faster, and at seven steps in close quarters, a gun was both faster and more accurate.
The bullets tore through the air and slammed into Tang San's Blue Silver Grass.
The bullets closed in.
Tang San's heart jolted. He frantically used Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, barely dodging Qian Yu's ambush.
"Who is it?" Tang San stepped back a few paces and steadied himself. His Purple Demon Eye searched the surroundings as he shouted.
Tang San eventually spotted Qian Yu and the others to his right.
Their mental powers collided violently.
Tang San and Qian Yu both staggered back a few steps.
Tang San's eyes throbbed with pain, while Qian Yu's head spun.
"Impossible. How can anyone in this world have such powerful mental strength?" Tang San's heart pounded wildly.
Qian Yu was likewise amazed by the extraordinary nature of the Tang Sect Secret Arts.
"It's you. Qian Yu. Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu?" Following Tang San's gaze, the others looked toward Qian Yu and his group. Dai Mubai was the first to recognize them.
How could Dai Mubai forget Qian Yu and Ning Rongrong?
After all, Qian Yu and Ning Rongrong had humiliated Shrek Academy and withdrawn from it.
Zhao Wuji had noticed Qian Yu and the others too.
Deep down, he actually admired Qian Yu. He just didn't know why Qian Yu and Ning Rongrong had later withdrawn from Shrek.
Zhao Wuji had long wanted to ask Qian Yu and the others what had happened.
His gaze swept over Qian Yu, Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuqing.
He barely spared a glance for Sword Douluo. With his Soul Saint cultivation, it never occurred to him that the white-clad, elegant-looking middle-aged man was a peerless Titled Douluo.
If he had known that this man in white was a guardian Douluo of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, he would never have dared stand in front of Sword Douluo.
"Qian Yu, it's you? You actually stopped me from obtaining my Spirit Ring! Teacher Zhao, kill them!" Tang San had recovered his senses by now. As soon as he saw Qian Yu and the others, he immediately ordered Zhao Wuji to eliminate them.
