In this life, one's greatest enemy is always oneself.
It is easy to defeat an enemy, but difficult to defeat oneself! And for Yun Qianzhao and Yun Qianyue, it is an opponent they can never truly overcome.
Behind Yun Qianzhao and Yun Qianyue respectively, the Golden Sun and Silver Moon rose and swayed, with century-old spirit rings embedded on the outer edges of their martial souls! To test whether the weapons in one's hands are powerful, fighting oneself is the best way!
They possess the same soul, the same thoughts, and the same senses; every one of their movements is identical.
Only in this way can it be called tempering!
Fire rained across the sky, and frost rustled down.
The first spirit skills of ice and fire were unleashed simultaneously. The battle between them was one where offense contained defense, and defense was integrated into offense. Whether it was Yun Qianzhao or Yun Qianyue, neither could break through the other's defense!
They brandished their long spears amidst ice and fire, following no fixed moves, acting purely on instinct.
The powers of the Golden Sun and Silver Moon collided, stirring up an invisible energy storm. Beneath their feet, on the ground they trod, a Black and White Fish Diagram seemed to faintly emerge.
The flat ground transformed into a pool for the fish, and every step Yun Qianzhao and Yun Qianyue took splashed up points of light.
The powers of the Golden Sun and Silver Moon reflected each other, with you in me and me in you.
"Ding--!!"
The tips of the Moon God Spear and the Sun God Spear collided at the intersection of the Black and White Fish Diagram.
Their perfectly identical movements ensured there was not the slightest error between the spear tips.
Yun Qianzhao and Yun Qianyue guided the two forces they had accumulated to collide. The power of the Moon God Spear and the Sun God Spear instantly erupted into a chaotic shockwave, forcing even the twins who had created it to retreat from the sheer impact.
"What powerful strength!"
Yun Qianzhao exclaimed. A flash of excitement and thrill crossed his and Yun Qianyue's faces. Just as they were about to try other moves, a knock sounded at the door.
"Qianzhao, Qianyue! It's me."
Ya Li's voice came from outside.
The two frowned. What was she doing here?
In all honesty, they had not chosen Shrek Academy out of any longing for the continent's number one academy; they had simply picked the one that looked the most decent among several inferior options.
Even though they had become the disciples of Yun Ming, that did not mean they acknowledged Shrek. Therefore, no matter how much Ya Li cared for them, they always kept in mind that their goal was to overthrow the faith in the Sea God!
The two did not feel there was anything wrong with their methods. To confront a despicable villain, one must become even more despicable than the villain!
They would not betray their master, but if Tang San counted as this ancestor, then they were determined to destroy him!
With solemn expressions, the two put away their weapons and adjusted their mental states for a moment before Yun Qianyue walked over to open the door. "Is there something you need, Mistress?"
"It is about Qiangu Zhangting."
Ya Li walked into the training room, and the residual aura immediately caught her attention. "Were you two sparring just now? I felt the power of Ultimate Fire and Ultimate Ice."
The power of the twins was actually quite different from Ultimate Ice and Fire, but Ya Li did not know what the power of the Golden Sun and Silver Moon was, and even the twins themselves were unclear about the difference between their power and Ultimate Ice and Fire.
Therefore, no matter who felt these two forces, they would only assume they were the more pure powers of Ultimate Ice and Fire.
Hearing Ya Li's question, Yun Qianyue pursed her lips slightly, and Yun Qianzhao asked from the side, "Mistress, what happened to Qiangu Zhangting?"
His words pulled Ya Li's attention back. She sighed, "The academy has agreed to his enrollment. When the next semester starts, he will be studying at Shrek Academy with you two."
Yun Qianzhao frowned upon hearing this. "But how old is Qiangu Zhangting now? The entrance requirement for Shrek is twelve years old; he doesn't meet the criteria yet!"
Ya Li shook her head helplessly and said to the two, "Rules are for ordinary people. He is the grandson of the Spirit Pagoda master. If we refuse him, there is no telling what else Qiangu Dongfeng might do!"
Yun Qianzhao and Yun Qianyue both fell silent.
What an ironic statement.
"Qiangu Zhangting is targeting Qianyue! So Qianzhao, you must look after your sister no matter what; don't let that brat Qiangu Zhangting succeed!"
Ya Li instructed Yun Qianzhao with a serious expression.
"Qianyue, people from the Qiangu family like to play dirty tricks in the dark; you must be careful too."
"Don't worry, Mistress, he will never succeed in this lifetime!" Yun Qianyue said coldly.
After learning that Shrek Academy had agreed to his enrollment, Qiangu Zhangting returned home in high spirits to report to Qiangu Dongfeng.
Qiangu Dongfeng nodded with satisfaction, patted his shoulder, and said, "Good lad! You didn't disappoint me. You must marry Yun Qianyue and bring her to our Spirit Pagoda! If that really doesn't work, at least find out the background of those two siblings!"
"Yes!"
After receiving Qiangu Dongfeng's approval, Qiangu Zhangting left, full of joy.
Qiangu Dieting, who was walking over, watched the back of his great-grandson leaving in such high spirits, his expression grave.
"Sending him to Shrek Academy—I can't believe you thought of that! You know full well Shrek's ability to bewitch people's hearts. Have you never considered that he might be kept at Shrek by that Yun Qianyue and never return?"
Qiangu Dieting walked to the doorway, stared coldly at Qiangu Dongfeng, and said, "Qiangu Dongfeng! If you don't want this grandson, I will take him to train somewhere else!"
Qiangu Dongfeng frowned slightly. He looked back at his father and sighed helplessly.
The relationship between father and son was complicated. Qiangu Dongfeng spoke in a slow, soothing tone, "Father, trust me! As the Spirit Pagoda master, I have my own plans!"
"I don't believe in any of your plans. If anything happens to Zhangting at Shrek, I won't mind going there myself to bring him back! By then, it won't look good for anyone."
Qiangu Dongfeng frowned upon hearing this. "But now is not the time for us to completely break ties with Shrek Academy! With Yun Ming there, Shrek's position is unshakable!"
"Then find a way to deal with Yun Ming!"
Qiangu Dieting cast a cold glance at him and turned to leave, but before walking away, he threw out one last sentence: "For the sake of the Qiangu Clan, there is nothing this old man would not do!"
After he left, Qiangu Dongfeng fell silent. Only after a long while did he take a deep breath and mutter to himself, "I am the same, Father!"
At the start of the new semester, Yun Qianzhao and Yun Qianyue were just about to head out. As soon as they opened the door, they saw Qiangu Zhangting standing there with his bag, waving to greet them.
"Qianyue, good morning!"
Their good moods for the morning were completely ruined.
The twins bypassed Qiangu Zhangting, one to the left and one to the right, and continued walking. Qiangu Zhangting was not annoyed; he chased after them and said, "I'm enrolling today! The Heavenly Pillar Crown has arranged for me to study on Sea God Island!"
"Mm, got it," Yun Qianzhao replied indifferently.
