Chapter 42: Ch 40: "square the fuck up, gahba!"
Peter Parker :"wow, thanks for the super cool armor, Mr Stark!
Ali Ashborne :"yeah, no, don't worry about Steve, tony. he {Steve} doesn't need any armor. go ahead and give it to the kid who can lift 10 tons and climb walls and sense danger. I mean, hey, he's got a shield, right?"

Ma Hongjun kept the fire going for a few seconds but stopped when Dai Mubai, with a confused look said :"it's over already?"
Ma Hongjun :"grilled tortoise." 'seriously?' was the thought of both Ivan and Altair as they deadpanned to them.
Ivan, being the rational and logical one of the two, put his on his forehead, rubbing it frustratingly as he sighed :"siiigh, we JUST told them to not underestimate him! siiigh."
and he had the right to be frustrated with them. cause as soon as he finished, the blue silver grass that was surrounding him while burning, completely froze!
"stop him!" Tang San commanded as the captain and Dai Mubai obeyed :"white tiger intensive light wave!"
the attack shattered the useless frozen blue silver grass, but it didn't do any damage to Ye Zhiqiu who had released his martial soul!
"second soul skill, dark water ice bound!" Ye Zhiqiu roared as a water beam similar to Dai Mubai's light wave was shot out of his mouth!
but it wasn't just that, cause the moment it connected with the place the Dai Mubai stood before, it completely froze in mid air!
Zhu Zhuqing also started attacking when she saw the chance with him being distracted. but well, the difference in level and him being a defence type soul master, left him pretty much undamaged.
"nether spikes!" she activated her soul skill as she dived at him from the sky! but a weird scene happened, the shell expanded a little and he shrank into his shell while a kind of icy mist barrier surrounded him!
"what is this?!" Ma Hongjun asked in surprise as a small soul wave was unleashed by Ye Zhiqiu. "he shrinks into his shell. my hand is stuck." Zhu Zhuqing answered as her hand began to freeze.
"third soul skill, dark water..." "that's it you bitch!" just as Ye Zhiqiu was about to unleash his soul skill, Ivan cut him off with a kick to his guts with his hands in his pockets!
and when Zhu Zhuqing fell, he cought her in a princess carry and then let her down :"you guys fall back. I will take care of this arrogant trash." there was no room for argument in his tone.
they were all surprised, for a few reasons as well. 1: Ivan was standing next to Altair who was a few meters away, and suddenly appeared in front of Ye Zhiqiu!
2: he managed to crack the front shell of his hard martial soul that everybody struggled with with just a kick!
and 3: he looked extremely mad right now, so mad that if glaring could kill, Ye Zhiqiu would be 12 feat underground right now!
but gotta be honest, everyone found it kind of hot since it was Ivan who made the face and command...
so they obeyed his orders and retreated to Altair's side, who had a "oh this gahba is fucked" expression.
and Ye Zhiqiu, who balanced himself, and despite being surprised like everybody else gave a snort :"hmph, all of them together couldn't do anything, you think you can little girl?"
Ivan grinned and said through grinding teeth :"ohh, you're gonna find the answer to that, old bastard. so now, square the fuck up, gahba!" and released his martial soul! but not his rings.
and vanished from his place, activating his soul skill, his speed sky rocketed and appeared in front of Ye Zhiqiu who became wide eyed when he noticed his speed!
he thought that maybe he just didn't notice Ivan before, but that doesn't seem to be the case, and he found out the hard was when Ivan's combo of hard punches and kicks started raining on him!
since Ivan slightly lacked defense, he had to use his speed and use different techniques to be on the safe side and to take advantage of his speed.
though, there wasn't a need for defense because of how overpowered and broken his recovery and regeneration is!
but he still likes to use martial arts, unlike Altair who likes to just land a hit with brute strength while ignoring the damage!
so there was a perfect martial arts for him, one that he picked from a game, our friendly neighborhood spider man!
he really liked the spider martial arts that spider man created and used in the amazing spider man 1 game was!
it was cruel, powerful, efficient and wouldn't give the opponent a chance to counter at the same time! if he landed a hit on you, you're fucked because the combo begun!
but unfortunately, they nerfed it down in amazing spider man 2... it was powerful, but not as satisfying as the first game.
but🎶stepping back to reality🎶 ! having cought Ye Zhiqiu by surprise, Ivan who was pissed, went for the face first without remorse!
punching him with the back of his hand and then immediately punched him with his right hand, then using the momentum of his actions, he immediately kicked his face with his right foot!
doing all of this, Ye Zhiqiu was bound to lose his balance! and when he did, Ivan put his hands on the ground, kicked Ye Zhiqiu's feet opposite to where his head was going, and made him stand horizontally in mid air!
and applying force to his hands, he jumped and landed a double kick right in the center of Ye Zhiqiu's shell, completely shattering it, and making Ye Zhiqiu spit a mouthful of blood!
{another xianxia phrase unlocked!}
after all, having your martial soul broken deals a large blow to the soul master. and Ivan, feeling angry that someone had the balls to raise his hand to his love interest, wasn't in any mood to show mercy!
so he rushed to the flying idiot, and after grabbing his shoulders, he did a backflip to gain momentum, and then grabbed his head and SLAMMED his head face first to ground so hard that he bounced!
the spectators winced at the brutality, but Ivan wasn't finished yet! he may not be the instinct or the violent side, but he still has the emotion of rage!
when Ye Zhiqiu's body bounced from the ground and was still in mid air, Ivan moved under him and with a kick to the side of his chest,he made him turn around!
and then by placing his hands on his shoulders again and pulling him towards him, he kicked in the middle of his back with just enough force to not paralyze him, and sent him to the sky!
and then jumping to grab his shoulders AGAIN, he did a flip and SLAMMED him to the ground AGAIN! causing everyone, including Zhao Wuji who had come out, wince at the one sided fight!
but it seems that tonight was Ye Zhiqiu's unluckiest night, cause Ivan just didn't lay off this gahba!
as he threw him to the sky to gain some space for more combos, he circled around his head like spider man and delivered a harsh knee to his chin, breaking a few teeth!
and after that, he grabbed his head with his feet, and with a "I believe I can fly" pose, he SLAMMED him face first to the ground AGAIN!
and when he wanted to execute his next combo, instead of grabbing him and throwing him, he just kicked the bitch!
but not just anywhere ladies and gentlemen, he kicked him right between the legs and straight in the family jewels!
and this ruthless bastard wasn't gentle either, he kick so hard that the poor guy went flying with an agonizing screaming with his hand on his crotch!
all of the male spectators were doing the same with a look of horror on their face at the cruelty of this angel looking beauty!
and when Ivan attacked him again, he placed both of his feet around his head and spined like a top on the sky!
and then land by SLAMMING his head face first to the ground while still holding him! oh my GOD, he wants to do some MORE?!
but thankfully, after looking at him for a second and thinking, he started walking back while everyone was shaking at the one sided slaughter.
I don't blame them, which male wouldn't be shaking after seeing that kind of cruel kick to the balls?!
"go and get your teacher already. and know this, if you try to some bullshit of trying to get back at me and take revenge, you will get some of this as well."
Ivan warned as he clenched his perfect hand that had the poor Ye Zhiqiu's blood on it now after the beat down.
of course the poor fella would have passed out, either from the pain or the beating. so he had to be escorted after having some of his bones broken.
after the Shrek people went inside the inn again, Ivan and Altair looked at Zhu Zhuqing as Ivan calmed down and asked with a worried expression :"are you alright, Zhuqing? Al, help Zhuqing heat up with your fire element."
Altair nodded and held the blushing Zhu Zhuqing's hand. using his fire element, he raised the temperature of his hand and warmed up her still slightly cold hand.
but there was a smile on her face, knowing how much both of them care for her and are protective of her.
but then Zhao Wuji ruined the moment as he started his scolding :"you guys... are really embarrassing. I'll note this down.
after we're back, you're going to undergo a special training. why didn't you use martial soul to aid the others just now?"
he asked Ning Rongrong as he looked at her, guess Ivan was left for the last. Ning Rongrong replied with her head down and looking at the ground:
"it wasn't the right moment, I was waiting..." but then she looked at the others, asking for help with her eyes. and luckily, she got it.
Tang San :"Rongrong... was waiting for Mubai's white tiger vajra transformation. right?" everybody smiled at him helping her as she replied :"yes."
"catch him off guard. good. remember, once you enter Shrek, you're a team. now Ivan, what was that all about? why did you attack him like that?"
Eve gave a hmph as he said :"nobody will get away with trying to harm those who are dear to me. especially some people who are special to me."
"sigh, alright. whatever. but at least don't go that harsh on people. he won't be able to use his dick from now on if he doesn't seek out the help of a healing soul master."
while a shiver went down on every guys spine at thought of that kick, the girls blushed at Zhao Wuji's indecent words.
"I can't promise nor can I guarantee that, but I will try to hold back if they aren't assholes like that bastard."
Zhao Wuji just shook his head as he said :"sigh, alright. go and sleep. we have to leave early tomorrow morning. the star dou forest is very big and dangerous. it's best if we didn't stay till the night."
everyone :"yes, Mr Zhao."
and soon, tomorrow arrived. and Zhao Wuji woke up all of them with a roar. some of them were grumpy, like Altair. but they still started moving.
as they stood just outside of the star dou forest, they admired just how big and thick the trees of different colors were. {sus}
Ali has been to a soul beast forest before to get his first and second soul rings, but for the third and fourth ones, he cheated by using his CS powers to just create them when he snuck out of the martial soul hall!
though Bibi Dong, who he has missed like crazy, remembered that and got back at him with a "punishment" after they became lovers.
so he has never been to the star dou forest before.
