When Tang San saw Flender announce in front of everyone that Xiao Wu's cultivation had reached level thirty-nine, Soul Elder, nine levels higher than his, he clenched his fist secretly, feeling extremely ashamed.
The Soul Ring bottleneck is one of the nine core competitive advantages of Martial Soul. When Soul Master reaches a bottleneck in their cultivation, even without acquiring Soul Ring, it will not affect the improvement of their Soul Power; they will simply be unable to advance to the next level. Once they acquire Soul Ring, the results of their cultivation will quickly become apparent.
More than a year has passed since he reached level 30 Quasi- Soul Elder. He has not slacked off during this year, but even with the accumulation of Soul Power and the absorption of the two-thousand-year-old Man Faced Demon Spider Soul Ring, his Soul Elder cultivation level is only up to level 34, which is still a full five levels behind Xiao Wu.
Tang San has a serious tendency towards male chauvinism. He can tolerate his lover being close to him in strength, but he absolutely cannot tolerate his lover being stronger than him, which is something his proud heart simply cannot accept.
All his lover needs to do is be affectionate, sweetly call him "brother," hide behind him or in his arms, and let him protect her.
Having been surpassed by Xiao Wu in cultivation by such a large margin, Tang San desperately wanted to go to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well and Fire to obtain the two Immortal Grade Herbs, the Infernal Delicate Apricot and the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass, to Ice and Fire Body Tempering. Only after consuming these two Immortal Grade Herbs could his cultivation speed catch up with Xiao Wu prevent her from further widening the gap between them.
Flender glanced indifferently at Ning Rongrong, who was stunned by Xiao Wu's terrifying cultivation speed—approaching that of Soul Ancestor at the age of twelve—and said, "Ning Rongrong, did you hear that? Ask yourself, which of them can you compare to? Here, you are already the weakest. What right do you have to be proud? I dare say, as long as you leave here, in twenty years, each of them will have achieved far more than you."
Ning Rongrong was unwilling to accept it; she was truly unwilling. "There's still Oscar, right? I'm definitely better than him. He's also a support-type Soul Master, just a lowly Food-type Soul Master. He can't possibly be as good as me."
Flender shook his head and said, "No, you're wrong. If you think that way, then you're sorely mistaken. Oscar's talent is top-tier among everyone; otherwise, why would I have allowed him to enter the academy? Ning Rongrong, I only have one question for you: have you ever seen Food-type Martial Soul with Innate Full Soul Power?"
"Oscar is an unprecedented figure. His future achievements are limitless. He may even replace your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect as the leading support-type Soul Master. You may not believe me, but I can assure you that this is very possible."
Ning Rongrong looked pale, then suddenly burst into tears and ran back to her dormitory.
Afterwards, Flender sent Oscar to comfort Ning Rongrong, and then led the others to the Suotuo City Great Soul Arena for practical Soul Fighting training, as always.
Compared to the dismal battle records of Dai Mubai, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun Soul Fighting their previous lives, Ma Hongjun's individual battle record is much better thanks to his rebirth and the combat experience gained from this second life. Dai Mubai's individual record should also be much better, but he was too indulgent in this life, his cultivation speed slowed down, and he spent more time at the low-level Soul Elder level than in his previous life. Therefore, his record is not much different from his previous life: 37 wins and 35 losses.
With the help of Tang Sect Secret Arts, Tang San won every battle, both individual and two-on-one. He formed the Three White Combo with Dai Mubai, the Three Jun Combo with Ma Hongjun, and the Three Ao Combo with Oscar.
Tang San naturally wanted to form the Three Wu Combo with Xiao Wu just like in his previous life, but Xiao Wu really disliked Tang San and regarded him as an enemy. She also didn't have a good impression of Dai Mubai, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun, who were friends with Tang San and often hung out with him. In the doubles competition, she only formed the Fox-Rabbit Combo with Hu Liena, and they also maintained a perfect record.
After the Soul Fighting, the group returned to the Shrek Academy.
Zhu Zhuqing completely ignored Dai Mubai, just like in the original novel. Although Dai Mubai broken off all relations with the women in Suotuo City two days ago, his reputation in Suotuo City was too great. He was a regular at the Rose Hotel and was known as the "Evil-Eyed Lewd Tiger." It could be said that everyone in Suotuo City knew about him.
Zhu Zhuqing easily found out that Dai Mubai was involved with a bunch of women.
At the main gate of the Shrek Academy, Ning Rongrong stood on a stone, seemingly waiting for a few people.
Oscar looked at Dai Mubai with a pleading expression. Dai Mubai understood, and his gaze fell on Ning Rongrong, coldly asking as he had in his past life, "What are you doing here? Have you thought it through? Stay or leave?"
Ning Rongrong replied without hesitation, "Of course I'll stay! How can I just leave such a fun place? What's with that expression? Are you a zombie? Did you get rejected by Zhuqing? Haha, Oscar even called you a Casanova, but you can't even handle a little girl."
Dai Mubai's eyes flashed with a cold light. "Ning Rongrong, don't test my patience. This is Shrek Academy, not your home. Others may fear your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect School, but I, Dai Mubai, am not. If you anger me, be careful I'll rape you first, then kill you, then rape you again, and then kill you again."
Ning Rongrong giggled and said, "I'm so scared!" She deliberately puffed out her chest, "Come on. Let me see what you can do to me."
"You..."
Dai Mubai stepped forward, ready to teach his disobedient sixth sister a lesson. Oscar pleaded with Dai Mubai to be gentle, seemingly unconcerned that Dai Mubai had offended his wife from his previous life, and instead said, "Rape her first, then kill her, then rape her again, then kill her again."
Just then, a figure stood in front of Ning Rongrong, blocking Dai Mubai —it was Hu Liena.
Dai Mubai frowned and asked, "Hu Liena, what are you trying to do?"
What do you want to do?
Hu Liena frowned, her voice icy. She hadn't wanted to get involved in this matter. In her opinion, Ning Rongrong, with her spoiled princess temper, did need to be disciplined, but Dai Mubai clearly wasn't qualified to do so.
She couldn't help but feel disgusted when she heard Dai Mubai say that he wanted to rape and kill Ning Rongrong, then rape and kill her again. He was utterly rude to women.
Hu Liena narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly and said, "Dai Mubai, this little sister does have some problems, but is she wrong? The things you did, this little sister's description is relatively mild. To put it bluntly, you are a disgusting and filthy slut."
Upon hearing this, Dai Mubai could no longer tolerate it. During his three years at Shrek, he had endured Hu Liena's disgusting gazes because of Bibi Dong's intimidation. But this time, Hu Liena dared to openly call him a disgusting and filthy slut, right in front of all his brothers and sisters. He simply couldn't take it anymore.
He was a reborn War God, and what was this Hu Liena? If he tolerated her in front of his brothers and sisters, he would lose his position as the eldest brother.
Seeing Hu Liena help her, Ning Rongrong's beautiful eyes sparkled. She grabbed Hu Liena's arm, pointed at Dai Mubai, and added fuel to the fire, saying, "Sister Na, Sister Na, help me deal with that Evil-Eyed Lewd Tiger, and I'll give you ten thousand Gold Soul Coin. You'll still be a friend of my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect forever."
"Hu Liena, I've been too kind to you!"
Dai Mubai's eyes were bloodshot, and three Soul Ring— two yellow and one purple—appeared beneath his feet. White Tiger Possession, and his entire body was surging with killing intent.
