Battle of the Three Haos

Lin Hao asked, "Still want to continue?"

Tang San countered, "What do you think?"

Lin Hao smiled. "If I don't let you fight me to your heart's content, you won't be convinced, will you?"

Tang San smiled as well. "The one who knows me best is Big Brother!"

"Lingling, heal him!"

"Huh?"

Ye Lingling was left dumbfounded by Lin Hao's order.

She had not misheard, had she? Lin Hao wanted her to heal his opponent, Tang San?

Lin Hao repeated, "Heal Tang San!"

Once Ye Lingling confirmed Lin Hao's command, she did not hesitate. The first Spirit Ring beneath her feet lit up with yellow light, and petals drifted down from the air. When they landed on Tang San, they merged into his body.

Tang San was secretly astonished. What incredible healing power. All the hidden injuries Big Brother caused just now have completely healed!

It was worth mentioning that this was only Ye Lingling's first Spirit Ring.

Tang San did not overlook the fact that this was only Ye Lingling's first Spirit Ring either.

No matter how many Spirit Rings the Nine-Heart Begonia possessed, it only had one soul skill: area-wide healing.

The higher the Spirit Ring's age, the stronger its healing ability.

Lin Hao said, "Tang San, I permit you to use hidden weapons."

Tang San was visibly stunned before asking, "Are you sure?"

At first, Tang San had not accepted Lin Hao in his heart.

As time passed, Tang San discovered that Lin Hao had been sincere toward him. From then on, he gradually opened his heart to Lin Hao.

In today's spirit battle against Lin Hao, Tang San had never even considered using hidden weapons. He was afraid of hurting Lin Hao.

"Sure!" Lin Hao looked at Ma Hongjun. "Before that, I need to knock him down first!"

Ma Hongjun opened his mouth, and the Spirit Rings beneath his feet rose.

"Phoenix Fire Line!"

"Paltry grass-chicken fire, and you dare compete with Hao Sun for brilliance? Golden Sun Flame!"

The wings behind Lin Hao first folded forward and ignited with golden flames. Then, they suddenly spread wide.

Two masses of golden fire shot out from his left and right wings, colliding head-on with the incoming Phoenix Fire Line.

The moment they touched, the golden flames displayed Purification Power, while the Phoenix Fire Line carried evil fire. In terms of attributes, the former was superior.

The Purification Power cleansed and consumed the Phoenix Fire Line's energy. As one waned and the other waxed, the Phoenix Fire Line was rapidly devoured.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye.

The spectators only saw the golden flames devour the Phoenix Fire Line, then engulf Ma Hongjun directly. The impact even shoved him several meters away.

Oscar, standing below the arena, was speechless. "Damn, the grass chicken got roasted!"

"Imperial Fighting Team... Imperial Fighting Team... Imperial Fighting Team..."

The spectators erupted into frenzy.

To them, this was exactly the kind of spectacle they wanted to see most.

Lin Hao turned his gaze toward Xiao Wu.

Xiao Wu smiled. "I won't spar with you this time!"

Even if Xiao Wu wanted to fight, could she have been Lin Hao's match?

At this point, Tang San was the only one among the Shrek Seven Devils who could still fight.

Lin Hao said, "Now it's between you and me. Come on."

"You'd better be careful!"

Tang San did not retract his Eight Spider Lances.

"Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track!"

"Flying Catkin Movement Technique!"

Tang San and Lin Hao charged at each other. Fists and kicks flew, their speed too fast for the naked eye to follow.

"Wow, wow, wow!"

The spectators cried out in alarm.

They were laymen. Only when they saw things they normally could not see and did not understand did they find it exciting.

As the battle continued, Tang San grew anxious. Since advancing to the three-ring Soul Elder realm, his Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track had improved tremendously. Yet even now, he still could not match Lin Hao.

Every punch Tang San threw was blocked by Lin Hao.

Lin Hao was equally shocked.

The Tang Sect Secret Arts were techniques that grew with their user. As the body's eight extraordinary meridians continued to open, the power of those arts rose alongside them.

In the past, Lin Hao could easily suppress Tang San's Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track with the Flying Catkin Movement Technique.

He could still suppress it now, but it was becoming increasingly difficult. Still, he could suppress it.

The Flying Catkin Movement Technique was a mid-grade Mysterious Tier movement technique. Perhaps because he had not devoted much effort to studying it, he now found it difficult to suppress Tang San's Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track.

"Mysterious Jade Hand!"

"Fierce Tiger Fist!"

"Bang!"

The two separated at the first exchange and retreated the same distance.

Tang San was shocked. Even with the Mysterious Jade Hand, he still could not defeat Lin Hao.

Lin Hao was shocked as well. Tang San truly deserves to be the child of fortune. His Fierce Tiger Fist was merely a Yellow Tier technique, yet Tang San had forced it into a draw.

Of course, the Fierce Tiger Fist also had levels: beginner, minor accomplishment, major accomplishment, great perfection, and the legendary Creation Realm.

To this day, whether it was the Flying Catkin Movement Technique or the Fierce Tiger Fist, Lin Hao had only reached the beginner level.

"Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon!"

"Thousand Wind Gale!"

Tang San slightly curled his palm toward Lin Hao, and a pulling force formed.

Lin Hao flicked out five wisps of pale-green spiraling gale force. They intertwined and turned into a thin green line, carrying a piercing whistle as it shot like lightning toward Lin Hao.

Because Tang San was now using Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon, the Thousand Wind Gale suddenly accelerated toward him. Startled, Tang San hurriedly swept his arm, using the pulling force to divert the Thousand Wind Gale. It grazed past his body, tore through his clothes, and left several shallow wounds on his arm.

Lin Hao asked, "Still want to fight?"

"Of course. Watch out!" Tang San touched the gemstone at his waist. Light flashed, and his fingers moved in rapid succession.

In an instant, hidden weapons that blotted out the sky attacked Lin Hao.

"First Soul Skill: Mountain Moving!"

"Clang! Clang! Clang!"

Countless hidden weapons struck the barrier around Lin Hao's body before falling to the ground.

Yet Tang San did not stop attacking. He continued his assault.

Flender asked in confusion, "Why is Tang San wasting his effort?"

In Flender's view, Tang San's hidden weapons could not break through Lin Hao's barrier unless he had Dragon Whisker Needles.

"Watch out."

Countless golden points of light suddenly appeared around Tang San.

Dragon Whisker Needles! Lin Hao was startled.

He had made a trip to the Dou Qi Continent. Not only had he missed Notting Academy's graduation ceremony, he had also failed to snatch the Plate Crystal from Flender's shop.

Tang San had obtained the Dragon Whisker Needles. They specialized in piercing protective energy barriers and Spirit Master shields, including Lin Hao's current first soul skill.

The golden hidden weapons traveled through space. The moment they touched the golden barrier around Lin Hao, they were not stopped. The Dragon Whisker Needles pierced through the barrier and penetrated more than thirty centimeters before stopping.

"Bang!" With a soft sound, the Dragon Whisker Needles, having lost their Soul Power, curled up and shattered a fist-sized area inside the barrier, creating several cracks.

But Tang San had not fired just one Dragon Whisker Needle, but hundreds.

With all the Dragon Whisker Needles acting together, visible cracks appeared across the golden barrier. In the end, it collapsed and shattered.

"Big Brother!" Tang San cried out. He instinctively stopped moving his hands, suddenly worried that Lin Hao might have been injured because of this.
