Shrek! Conflict!

After entering the Star Dou Great Forest, Qin Chuan searched the outer perimeter for a long time, enduring countless hardships before finally locating a Man Faced Demon Spider that was suitable in terms of cultivation and other aspects.

However, after being delayed for only a moment during the pursuit, this Man Faced Demon Spider had been intercepted by others.

These people even played dumb, intending to use it as their own spirit ring and telling him to go find another one.

Even though Qin Chuan was a civilized person raised under nine years of compulsory education, his smile vanished at this moment, and his expression turned cold.

"Is this really okay?" Ning Rongrong hesitated, and Zhu Zhuqing felt the same; snatching someone else's spirit ring was no small matter, and it was quite dishonorable. They did not want to do this.

Seeing this, Tang San smiled and said, "Rongrong, Zhuqing, this Man Faced Demon Spider was our prey to begin with. Those with the ability deserve it, so what is wrong with that?"

"Little San is right. Besides, the Man Faced Demon Spider's vitality is fading; let Little San absorb the spirit ring first," Dai Mubai said indifferently.

Although he was unsure of Qin Chuan's strength, being able to hunt a Man Faced Demon Spider of at least three thousand years alone meant he was likely no weak Soul Elder. They could not afford internal strife at a time like this.

Under these words, the members of Shrek Academy made a prompt decision to let Tang San absorb the spirit ring first; even if there were objections, it did not matter.

"Wait a moment. The Man Faced Demon Spider was my prey. Are you all planning to take it by force?" Qin Chuan said, looking at them expressionlessly.

"It is not taking by force; this Man Faced Demon Spider belongs to us. Furthermore, it is highly venomous and may not be suitable for you. How about this? Since we have met, it is fate. We will help you find another suitable spirit beast later, how about that?"

"Third Brother, this pretty boy is pushing his luck. Does he really think that just because he wounded it, it belongs to him? If you ask me, why waste words? Let's just drive him away." Ma Hongjun pointed at Qin Chuan and sneered.

Qin Chuan said nothing, coldly watching the ugly faces of these people, but they seemed to be growing increasingly arrogant.

"I will give you three breaths. Get lost immediately, or I will personally send you on your way," Qin Chuan said in a chilling voice.

He had held back from acting until now not only because of his upbringing but also because of the Dao Seed—the future World Seed he intended to plant.

If he truly chose this world as the target for his World Seed, then antagonizing the natives here would only create negative karma that would hinder the World Seed's ability to refine the Douluo Continent in the future.

Specifically, the more he antagonized or killed natives with strong destiny, the more the world would resist the Dao Seed that carried his aura.

He had heard that on Earth Star, people from the outer stars had more concise methods, hiring experts to easily wipe out the consciousness of a small world.

Unfortunately, he lacked that capability; he was merely the strongest in his own village.

"Friend, why be so angry? There are so many spirit beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest; there will always be one suitable for you."

"My friends and I put in a lot of effort to catch this spirit beast, which is the most suitable for me. It is impossible to give it away," Tang San said with a smile.

He wore an expression of righteous indignation.

Watching this display, Qin Chuan couldn't help but laugh.

Locking onto Ma Hongjun first, Qin Chuan lunged forward. He was so fast that before anyone could react, he was already in front of Ma Hongjun and delivered a side kick.

He detested this guy the most; despite it being their first meeting, the man harbored such malice, twisting the truth and inciting conflict...

"An agility-type spirit master actually dares to engage in close combat with me? Third Brother, don't interfere; let me teach this pretty boy a lesson."

The members of Shrek Academy didn't understand what Qin Chuan was saying, but they knew he was insulting them.

Being closed in on by Qin Chuan, Ma Hongjun felt no fear; in fact, he was smug. As he struck, he glanced at Ning Rongrong and gave his red hair a handsome flick.

However, the moment his fist clashed with Qin Chuan, his expression changed drastically. A terrifying power, as if from the primordial era, surged from Qin Chuan, nearly shattering the bones in his hand.

"Ah!"

Ma Hongjun let out a miserable scream, his body flying backward uncontrollably. His round face twisted in pain, and tears streamed down his cheeks.

"Fatty!"

"What a ruthless guy! Everyone, attack together!"

The group cried out in shock, none having expected this. Tang San quickly retreated several meters, using a Blue Silver Grass entanglement to catch Ma Hongjun and set him on the ground.

"Everyone, be careful! This guy's strength is immense; he is no mere agility-type battle spirit master!" Ma Hongjun said in horror.

He was panting heavily, his right hand trembling uncontrollably.

"How dare you hurt my brother! You are courting death!" Dai Mubai's expression turned fierce. A White Tiger Phantom appeared behind him, and he opened his mouth to unleash a White Tiger Intense Light Wave.

Ma Hongjun's state was too miserable. This was the result of the mating rights he had fought for, and Dai Mubai would not fall for the same trick of close-quarters combat.

Several golden beams of light, wreathed in countless blue-silver vines, bombarded him with lethal intent.

"It is clearly your own greed that led you to steal the spirit beast, yet I have become the villain."

"In that case, don't blame me for being impolite!"

Qin Chuan snorted coldly, his body radiating a brilliant glow as he prepared to teach these people a lesson.

He refused to believe that a few random spirit masters he bumped into could possess much destiny. Besides, he wasn't killing them, just teaching them a lesson.

Through their brief exchange, he had deduced that these guys were at most three-ringed, not even reaching the level of a Soul Ancestor.

Such strength might be considered decent in the Douluo Continent, but unfortunately, he was no native; he could crush them at will.

Qin Chuan raised his hand, unleashing a surge of Bloodline Power that instantly shattered the White Tiger Intense Light Wave. He closed the distance to Dai Mubai at high speed, aiming a side kick to send him flying.

However, at that moment, countless Blue Silver Grass vines erupted from the ground, instantly binding Qin Chuan and rendering him immobile.

"If we had followed the original plan, I would have helped you capture another one after I absorbed the Man Faced Demon Spider's spirit ring. But now that we are enemies, I cannot let you leave easily."

"Don't worry, I won't kill you. But to prevent future retaliation, your cultivation will have to stop here."

Cold light flickered in Tang San's eyes. Hidden weapons had appeared in his hands, coated in a potent poison capable of crippling even a Soul Ancestor.

"Tang San, there's no need to kill him. Let's just let him leave," Ning Rongrong said hesitantly.

Tang San frowned, ignoring Ning Rongrong. Just as he was about to throw his hidden weapon, something unexpected happened.

"What a ruthless fellow, your heart is truly vicious. I cannot let you leave here today!"

To see Tang San acting so sanctimonious—forcibly seizing someone else's spirit beast while maintaining such a self-righteous air—nearly made Qin Chuan laugh out of anger.

He had not expected his first encounter with a spirit master in this foreign world to be with such a hypocritical villain. With killing intent rising in his heart, he no longer held back.

The Immortal Path emphasizes acting according to one's nature; if something is unbearable, there is no need to endure it! If one were to worry about this and that, what kind of immortality would there be to cultivate, what kind of Dao to comprehend?

However, he could deal with these fellows first and then capture them to interrogate them about the situation in this world. After all, having just arrived, his understanding of the Douluo Continent was still extremely superficial, limited to what he could learn from common folk.

This was his first time encountering 'high and mighty' spirit masters!

The blood energy within his body erupted, and a bone-chilling killing intent enveloped the entire meadow. Qin Chuan appeared like a god-king walking the earth, and the Blue Silver Grass wrapped around his body shattered instantly.

Feeling this icy killing intent, the members of Shrek Academy changed color. Even Zhu Zhuqing and the other girl, who had not participated in the battle until now, were forced to join the fray.

After all, they were currently carrying the name of Shrek Academy; they could not just stand by and watch.

Only Ning Rongrong, the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, merely watched the show, her eyes shining with brilliance at Qin Chuan's power.
