Chapter 403: Four Title Douluos (3)
Having forced their enemies to retreat, everyone felt as though a large burden was released. If we were to say that when the bandits just appeared and the Spirit Master Academies did not care, then when the two Title Douluo appeared one after another, their hearts rose into their throats.
Those were Title Douluo! A total of four appeared today, that was almost equivalent to a quarter or a fifth of the entire continent's quantity. In front of Title Douluo, they are just that tiny.
Xue Qinghe adequately demonstrated the education of one raised to be monarch, once the enemy retreated, he immediately began instructing the imperial knights systematically, moving the undamaged carriage to the front, healing the war horses and recovering the formation.
With just a little effort, excluding the war horses who were already dead, the five hundred imperial knights had already recovered most of their combat capabilities.
Previously, when those black clothed bandits were fighting, there was insufficient killing intent, most of them were only fighting defensively, trying to gain sufficient time for the two Title Douluo. Therefore, the area with the most deaths among the two parties, was actually when Tang San used his poisonous hidden weapons to kill the hundred odd people.
Xue Qinghe after finishing what he was supposed to do, returned to his place beside Ning Fengzhi, politely saying:
"Teacher, what do you think we should do next?"
Ning Fengzhi smiled calmly,
"Stick to the original plan and continue advancing, having learnt a lesson this time, they won't dare to lightly make another move. After all, they still wouldn't want to pay too heavy a price for Tang San."
"Yes. Continue onward."
The entire procession continued advancing, but the atmosphere had already became very tense. Tang San immediately boarded Shrek Academy's carriage. He knew that he had already became everyone's focal point.
The mission of the two Title Douluo from before was obviously to kill him.
One failure didn't mean that they would still fail next time. Being remembered by Title Douluo level powers, that was not as simple as just having a thorn in your back.
The others in the Shrek's Seven Devils did not board the carriage, the ones who boarded the carriage were the three great powers, Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin and Dugu Bo. They felt that there was a need to discuss something with Tang San.
Tang San appeared to be a little depressed, within the same level of spirit masters, he was always the leader of the pack, even spirit masters who were slightly higher ranked than him found it hard to maintain an advantage against him.
But when the opponents became those of the Title Douluo level, he no longer had any means. That was not a gap that various techniques could make up for.
Ning Fengzhi first nodded towards Dugu Bo, giving a meaningful smile. Swordsman Chen Xin directly shut his eyes and recuperated.
Towards others, Dugu Bo might not pay them any attention, but the one who sat in front of him was the clan leader of one of the three upper sects among the seven big schools. They were also known as the richest school under the heavens.
"Greetings, clan leader Ning."
Ning Fengzhi sighed and said:
"Even I did not imagine that they would make their move so quickly. Furthermore still so mercilessly. It looks like when Tang San revealed his Clear Sky Hammer, they had already made their decision."
Dugu Bo nodded his head and looked at Tang San who was beside him, he could not help but reveal a look of worry,
"If these people have already made their decision, I'm afraid that Little San is in danger. Should we let him leave the competition now? Only by hiding now or finding his father can his safety be guaranteed. It's not possible for us to always guard him by his side."
Ning Fengzhi nodded and said:
"This is also what I had in mind. Although they shouldn't be making another move before the finals end, Little San's safety is still not guaranteed. Little San. If you are willing, I will let Uncle Chen Xin escort you back to our Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Clan. There, although I wouldn't say that you will be absolutely safe, it won't be easy if anyone wants to harm you."
Tang San gazed seriously at Ning Fengzhi's eyes,
"Uncle Ning, can you tell me why you did not reveal their identities just now?"
Ning Fengzhi sighed,
"So you also noticed. That's right, those people should be from Spirit Hall, even those normal black clothed people are also spirit masters. Furthermore, they are all at least Spirit Elders with three spirit rings. Only Spirit Hall is able to mobilize two Title Douluo and over a thousand Spirit Elders. Even if the seven big schools were to try their hardest and compete with them, it's still impossible for them to gather as many people as Spirit Hall did. The reason why I did not reveal their identities is because I do not wish for everyone here to die over this matter. Do you think the Spirit Hall would let anyone off if they clearly knew that it was the Spirit Hall behind this?"
Tang San's eyes flashed,
"Killing all witnesses?"
Ning Fengzhi nodded,
"Previously Dragon Duke and Serpent Grandmother did not intend to say it, but when Senior Dugu was about to say it, he was stopped by Chrysanthemum Douluo. We also did not say anything. That was because we did not wish to give Spirit Hall a reason to kill all the witnesses. This time they suffered a loss, in order to not reveal Spirit Hall's identity, those lower level Spirit Elders did not release their spirits. If not, you would not have been able to kill them so easily. By the time they reacted, the losses had already appeared."
Tang San lowered his voice:
"Uncle, Spirit Hall making a move against me, is it because of my father?"
Ning Fengzhi muttered:
"Not entirely. I think that although Spirit Hall making a move against you is partially because of your father, at the same time it is also because of your own talent. They should have already investigated your age. Having not yet reached fifteen years old but already having such strength. Furthermore you have twin spirits and are a direct descendant of the Clear Sky Clan. All these identities will undoubtedly make you into another Clear Sky Douluo. Once you've become strong, you will definitely become Spirit Hall's largest threat."
Tang San said:
"Just because of this, they want to kill me? But why did they not send a Title Douluo to directly assassinate me? Won't that be much easier?"
Ning Fengzhi smiled calmly and said:
"Title Douluo also have their Title Douluo's pride. The two Title Douluo who appeared today are both members of the Spirit Hall Elders, loyal supporters of the Supreme Pontiff. They can also be said to be the Deva Kings who stand alongside the Supreme Pontiff. A Title Douluo's status is extremely revered, how would they be willing to sneak attack a child? If the people who previously attacked you were lowered to Spirit Douluo level, then with Flender and Liu Erlong around, it wouldn't be easy for them to complete their mission. Actually, the biggest variable today was not us but Senior Dugu, you should thank him. The reason Spirit Hall sent out two Title Douluo must be because they already guessed that me and Uncle Sword would be here. It's only after adding Senior Dugu that they fell into a disadvantageous situation."
Dugu Bo laughed loudly, looked at Tang San and said:
"Little freak, you don't have to thank me."
Tang San looked at him and did not say any thanks. But in his heart, Dugu Bo who unhesitatingly went out to battle, left a deep mark in his heart. In order to save him, Dugu Bo had offended Spirit Hall.
Ning Fengzhi said:
"I think, there's a need for you to learn about the two Title Douluo who appeared today. The white clothed one that appeared first is called Yue Guan, his spirit is the Chrysanthemum and his title is Chrysanthemum, Chrysanthemum Douluo. His spirit rank is probably between rank ninety four and rank ninety five. That weird chrysanthemum is very powerful, luckily he was countered by Uncle Sword today."
"The black shadow that appeared later, his title is Ghost and his rank is about the same as Chrysanthemum Douluo. His spirit is very special, Ghost Demon. And his own name is also called Gui Mei. According to rumors, besides the Supreme Pontiff, no one has seen his true face. He's a strong agility attack based spirit master. It is very difficult to harm him with physical attacks. He's definitely one of the toughest among the Title Douluo."
Dugu Bo's face turned red,
"That fellow Gui Mei is indeed powerful, if we were to continue fighting, I would definitely not be his opponent."
Ning Fengzhi heavily said:
"These two Title Douluo do not only hold a high rank in the Spirit Hall, they are also in charge of upholding the law. They are both important pillars in Spirit Hall. Other than the few other elders who are hidden inside the Elder Hall, any matter relating to the outside world is decided by the Supreme Pontiff and the two of them. They are important helpers of the Supreme Pontiff, given your strength now, if you were to meet them alone, there's no chance of surviving. That's why I hope that you can return with Uncle Sword to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School. I can only guarantee your safety if you are there."
Tang San lowered his head and started thinking. Suddenly he raised his head, looked at Ning Fengzhi and said:
"Uncle Ning, thank you for your good intentions but I cannot just give up like this. Shrek Academy being able to walk until this step in the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament is not only due to me working hard. If I were to abandon my teammates because of personal safely, then I will never forgive myself forever. Once such a knot appears in my heart, then my training from now on will never be successful. Therefore, I must participate in the finals this time. Didn't you just say that before the finals end, Spirit Hall should not be openly making a move against me."
Ning Fengzhi's eyes revealed a trace of praise, but the words from his mouth were actually:
"But once the finals ends, if you all really become the champions, the assaults from Spirit Hall will be much scarier than today. At that time, even I might not be able to protect you. I can reveal a secret to you. Within the seven large clans, only the upper three clans are not under the influence of Spirit Hall. Spirit Hall can make two big empires fear them, why is that? That's because of their absolute strength. I dare say, the spirit masters controlled by the two big empires added up, are not even half as much as Spirit Hall."
