Chapter 126: Chapter 126: Su Ming: Zhao Wuji Only Saved Them to Save Himself

[Especially when it comes to rare spirit beasts, their danger and aggressiveness increase significantly. This requires the teacher to intervene directly to suppress the beast before allowing the student to absorb its spirit ring.]

[Take, for example, the Man-Faced Demon Spider that Tang San absorbed in the original story. If it hadn't been for the Dragon Duke and Snake Lady weakening its web, and Tang San having the Clear Sky Hammer, the Blue Silver Grass alone wouldn't have been enough to kill the spider—it was pure luck.]

[So, in the original story, I believe Zhao Wuji's decision to use his Martial Soul True Body and attack the Titan Giant Ape was purely to save himself.]

[After all, the students in this class are exceptionally talented and, more importantly, all have powerful backgrounds that he can't afford to provoke.]

[Tang San's father is the legendary Clear Sky Douluo, Tang Hao. Not long ago, Zhao Wuji got beaten up by Tang Hao for bullying his son. If Tang San were to die during this trip to the Star Dou Forest, not only would Zhao Wuji die, but the entire Shrek Academy might also get wiped out.]

[Then there's Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing, both from the royal family of the Star Luo Empire. While Dai Mubai might be a disgraced prince, Zhao Wuji isn't from a big clan himself—he's merely an academy teacher. He'd definitely face consequences if something happened to them.]

[As for Ning Rongrong, she's backed by the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan. If something happened to her, Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo would go berserk!]

[As for Oscar and Ma Hongjun, Ma Hongjun is at least Flender's direct disciple, while Oscar, on the other hand, has no background at all. He'd only be protected if it's convenient.]

[Xiao Wu is in the same category as Oscar in Zhao Wuji's eyes—just a commoner. If something happened to her, it wouldn't be a big deal to him. After all, he could say he did everything he could. And Tang San couldn't blame him too much; Xiao Wu is just a sister in name, not by blood.]

Xiao Wu was furious upon reading this. If Zhao Wuji prioritized based on background, she was on the same level as Ma Hongjun and Oscar, only getting protection if it was convenient!

The other female characters, upon reading this, realized how much backstory and politics were involved. Indeed, their individual backgrounds were things Zhao Wuji could never cross.

[So, the only reason Zhao Wuji fought so hard to protect everyone was to save his own skin. In the face of a 100,000-year-old Titan Giant Ape, his strength is no more than a flicker compared to the moon—completely outmatched.]

[Among the known Titled Douluo under level 95, only Tang Hao could potentially defeat the Titan Giant Ape using the Clear Sky Hammer and various secret techniques from the Clear Sky Clan.]

[As for Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, who are often referred to as the "gatekeepers" of level 95, they wouldn't stand a chance against the Titan Giant Ape on their own. Only their combined Martial Soul Fusion skill, the Two-Pole Static Domain, could temporarily control the Titan Giant Ape.]

[I'm also curious—if Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo both reached level 99, would their fusion skill be able to control even gods, even if only for a moment?]

[Unfortunately, the two of them never made it past level 95. Both were eventually killed by Tang San during the finale, which is a real shame.]

Bibi Dong paused, contemplating Su Ming's diary. Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo had been by her side for a long time, but they had indeed been stuck at level 95. Even if she wanted to help them now, there was nothing she could do. The gap between levels 95 and 96 was a massive one, and while their spirit power had long been sufficient, they lacked the insight needed to break through.

In fact, she suspected that their potential had likely peaked. Without an extraordinary opportunity, like a rare immortal herb or a near 100,000-year spirit bone, they would probably remain at level 95 for life.

Their Martial Soul Fusion skill was indeed incredible. Despite their spirits not being perfectly compatible, their fusion could immobilize even stronger opponents for a period of time, making it an excellent control skill.

Its major flaw, however, was the long casting time, making it easy to interrupt. But if they successfully cast it and had backup, their opponent would be at their mercy.

Bibi Dong was also curious: if Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo reached level 99, could they even briefly control a god?

[If I choose to join Spirit Hall, I'll try to help those two if possible. After all, as far as I know, they're the only Titled Douluo capable of using a Martial Soul Fusion skill, which is exceedingly rare.]

[But of course, I'll only help them if they're on my side. Otherwise, it's not my concern. Besides, I definitely won't let Tang San become the Sea God in this timeline. I'll have to intercept the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud before he can get his hands on it.]

[The Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud is currently in the hands of the Heaven Dou Empire, revered as a national treasure. If not for Emperor Xue Ye being on his deathbed in the original story and trying to win over Tang San, they never would have handed it over. It won't be easy to acquire.]

[I'm curious how the Heaven Dou Empire got their hands on a Sea God Island artifact in the first place. What a waste!]

At this moment, Bo Saixi of Sea God Island was glaring at the words "Heaven Dou Empire." She hadn't known that the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud was being held by the Heaven Dou royal family! Finally, she knew its whereabouts, but due to the rules of the diary, she couldn't just go to Heaven Dou and take it back. Now, she could only hope it didn't end up in Tang San's hands. She had no intention of dying for him!

With the diary's passive soul power boosts, Bo Saixi was confident she'd accumulate enough power to reach level 100 within a few years. As for gaining the necessary insights, she trusted her talent to make it happen. After all, she was one of the three Limit Douluo in the entire continent. She had every reason to be confident.

[When I head to Heaven Dou City for the upcoming Spirit Master Tournament, I'll try to get close to Qian Renxue, who's impersonating Xue Qinghe. Maybe I can work out a deal and acquire the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud.]

[As long as Tang San doesn't get it, I don't mind if Qian Renxue takes it. After all, the Sea God is just a first-level god, and the artifact doesn't align with my abilities. It wouldn't be particularly useful to me anyway.]


Chapter 127: Chapter 127: Su Ming's Plan, Hunting the Phoenix-Tailed Crest Serpent

[To be honest, I think the Sea God's divine position doesn't really suit Tang San's Blue Silver Grass, but a divine position is a divine position, after all. Tang San never expected that by going to Sea God Island, he'd actually receive a god's inheritance.]

[If the Titan Giant Ape really shows up later, and if it wants to take Xiao Wu away, I'd like to go with them. After all, the Titan Giant Ape is Xiao Wu's younger brother, so I should at least get to know him.]

[Moreover, while my strength and soul skills are decent, I still lack real combat experience. The spirit masters at the Soto City Arena aren't strong enough to challenge me.]

[Right now, without using my Mangekyō Sharingan, I can easily kite Zhao Wuji if he doesn't use his Martial Soul True Body. Even if he does, I'm confident he still wouldn't be my match.]

[So, I urgently need a strong opponent to practice against, someone who can put pressure on me and push me to use my full strength. I really want a good, intense fight!]

[And Da Ming and Er Ming, despite being spirit beasts, are kind by nature. Plus, they're Xiao Wu's brothers, so they'd be perfect sparring partners.]

The female protagonists, upon reading this, immediately noticed the name "Da Ming" and furrowed their brows. Could it be that Xiao Wu has another younger brother who is even stronger than the Titan Giant Ape?

What kind of spirit beast could surpass the Titan Giant Ape, the King of the Forest? Just from the name, "Da Ming," it was clear that this beast was even more powerful than the Titan Giant Ape!

Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing exchanged curious glances with Xiao Wu and asked through the diary: "Xiao Wu, is Da Ming also your brother? And judging by the name, is he stronger than the Titan Giant Ape?"

Xiao Wu responded: "Yes, Da Ming is a 100,000-year-old Azure Bull Python, a snake with a bull's head. His strength surpasses Er Ming's, and in the spirit master world, he's often referred to as the Emperor of the Star Dou Forest."

"But what people don't know is that Da Ming and Er Ming, while powerful, are just on the edge of the core area of the Star Dou Forest. Deeper inside, there are even more fearsome beasts. Su Ming mentioned in the diary that my mother was severely injured by one of those powerful spirit beasts from the forbidden zone of the core and later sacrificed herself to Bibi Dong."

The Emperor of the Star Dou Forest?

Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing were hearing about this for the first time. While the Titan Giant Ape was famous and widely known, the Azure Bull Python seemed much more obscure. Few had ever heard of it.

If even these two powerful 100,000-year-old beasts couldn't claim dominance over the core of the Star Dou Forest, how terrifying must the true rulers of the deeper areas be?

After a brief pause, the female protagonists noticed that Su Ming had stopped updating the diary. It seemed he wasn't planning to write more for now. Judging by the time Su Ming had been writing, it was almost half an hour—if nothing unexpected happened, the Phoenix-Tailed Crest Serpent was likely about to appear.

Su Ming had also stopped writing because the rest period was nearly over.

Not long after, Su Ming's spiritual senses picked up a spirit beast rapidly approaching their location.

Zhao Wuji sensed it too and shouted, "Everyone, get up! Something's coming!"

Immediately, everyone stood up, with Ning Rongrong hiding behind Su Ming. Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing also positioned themselves nearby, while Dai Mubai and Tang San shielded Oscar.

Everyone quickly activated their martial souls, including Zhao Wuji, who wasn't taking any chances during this mission.

As the rustling sound grew louder, indicating something rapidly approaching, Su Ming said, "Zhuqing, go hide in the trees and observe the situation. Let us know what kind of spirit beast it is."

Zhu Zhuqing nodded, though she already knew it was the Phoenix-Tailed Crest Serpent. Still, she followed the protocol.

Su Ming, with his spiritual power, had already detected the serpent. As expected, it was the same one from the original story, its belly marked with three distinct wounds—likely inflicted by the Snake Lady's staff.

Soon, Zhu Zhuqing's voice came from the trees: "It's a flying snake, but it's not flying high. It has a large, fleshy crest on its head, and its tail is fan-shaped."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Wuji's eyes lit up. "That should be the Phoenix-Tailed Crest Serpent! This type of snake is very rare in the Star Dou Forest."

He then turned to Oscar. "Oscar, this is your lucky day. Originally, we planned to hunt the Man-Faced Demon Spider for Tang San first, but this rare beast showed up while we were resting. Let's hope it's at the right age for you."

Oscar's face lit up with excitement. His luck seemed excellent; they had only just entered the forest, and already he'd encountered a spirit beast suitable for him. Now, he just hoped it was within his capacity to absorb.

Tang San suddenly asked, "How long is the Phoenix-Tailed Crest Serpent? What color are its wings?"

Zhu Zhuqing replied, "The wings are light red, and the length is about six to eight meters."

Tang San thought for a moment and said, "This Phoenix-Tailed Crest Serpent should be around 1,300 to 1,800 years old—perfect for Oscar."

Hearing this, everyone trusted Tang San's judgment. After all, he was Grandmaster's disciple and likely learned a lot of theory from him.

Oscar's eyes gleamed as he praised Tang San, "Little San, you're like a walking encyclopedia of the spirit world!"

Tang San smiled modestly, not saying much. This was just basic knowledge learned from his teacher.

Zhao Wuji then said in a deep voice, "Since it's a thousand-year-old Phoenix-Tailed Crest Serpent, Su Ming and I will stay out of this. You all work together to capture it, and Oscar can finish it off for his spirit ring."

"The Phoenix-Tailed Crest Serpent's attack power isn't high, but its speed is its main strength. The energy is stored in the crest on its head, so don't let it escape. This kind of spirit beast is hard to come by—get moving!"

Su Ming wasn't surprised that Zhao Wuji didn't want him to participate. With his strength, capturing a thousand-year-old Phoenix-Tailed Crest Serpent would be far too easy. Even Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing could probably kill it, though they lacked proper control skills. This was where Tang San's abilities would come in handy.

Tang San activated his Purple Demon Eyes and turned to Ma Hongjun. "Fatty, your martial soul is the Evil Fire Phoenix, which is a natural predator of snakes. Your aura should suppress it a bit. Just make sure it doesn't escape, and I'll find the right moment to control it."
