Chapter 190: Chapter 190: Su Ming: Who Do You Think You Are?

Xiao Wu thought to herself, As expected, I knew Su Ming would probably choose that name!

Master, standing nearby, muttered to himself, "Arashi Kick? The word 'Arashi' indeed conveys the idea of a vacuum, not bad at all."

Su Ming overheard Yu Xiaogang's mumbling. In truth, he wasn't great at naming things. While Arashi Kick suited the technique, it didn't seem quite fitting for a girl.

Time passed, and finally, their team's first group battle began. However, likely due to their late registration or their high levels, they were scheduled for the final match of the night.

Master reminded them, "Group battles are different from two-on-two matches. Team coordination is crucial. It's up to you to figure out how to respond on the battlefield."

Dai Mubai added, "Master, don't worry. Our teamwork is solid. Even though Su Ming is primarily a support-type soul master right now, his fourth spirit ability is quite formidable."

"Besides, Tang San's strength has increased significantly after obtaining his third spirit ring. As a control-type soul master, he's perfect for orchestrating the battlefield."

Dai Mubai believed he had spoken well, neither offending Su Ming nor missing the chance to highlight Tang San's abilities.

In truth, given their current strength, if their opponents weren't soul ancestors, they wouldn't even need much coordination to steamroll through the battle. However, if they did face a team of soul ancestors, Su Ming's ability to control the field would be key.

Su Ming was practically an all-around soul master—capable of controlling enemies, defending allies, and launching attacks. He was the most suitable candidate to lead the team in battle.

However, since Su Ming could only use his fourth spirit ability this time, Tang San would take over the role of battlefield coordinator.

Tang San exchanged a glance with Dai Mubai and didn't decline. It was true that control-type soul masters were typically the core of a team, and Tang San took this responsibility seriously.

He was eager to show Xiao Wu how his Blue Silver Grass could dominate the battlefield and support his teammates!

"Alright," Tang San continued, "Mubai, Xiao Wu, and Zhuqing will be our main attackers. I'll stay in the middle to control and support everyone. Su Ming, Rongrong, and Xiao Ao, stay behind me. Su Ming, although you can only use your fourth spirit ability, self-created techniques aren't restricted. So, use Lingbo Weibu when necessary to help Xiao Ao and Rongrong avoid damage."

"Oscar, prepare your three kinds of sausages for everyone. Can you handle that?"

Oscar nodded. "No problem, I've got plenty of soul power. But..."

He glanced at Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, and Zhu Zhuqing. From the time they'd entered the academy, the three girls had never once eaten one of his sausages. Did they really despise them that much?

The others understood Oscar's concern. Xiao Wu spoke up, "Don't worry. If we really need to, we'll eat them!"

She discreetly winked at the two other girls, who nodded in agreement.

To outsiders, it seemed like the girls had accepted the offer. But only the three of them knew the truth. Xiao Wu had already communicated their real plan through the diary: they would never eat such creepy sausages, even in danger. With their enhanced abilities, they were confident they could fight well above their level.

And Ning Rongrong? She had nothing to fear. Su Ming's role on the battlefield was to support the team and protect her and Oscar. She trusted that Su Ming would keep her safe in any dangerous situation.

In a few more days, once she fully mastered Lingbo Weibu, she'd be able to protect herself against any soul master of similar strength.

The team waited in a resting room to restore their soul power and prepare mentally for the match. With their masks on, they drew a lot of attention from the other teams in the room, many curious about where this group had come from.

While Su Ming and his team quietly meditated, a burly man over two meters tall approached them.

"Hey, little lady, nice figure you've got there. Why cover it up so much? Come on, let me have a look!" The man directed his words toward Zhu Zhuqing, whose curvy figure was concealed under her cloak. He couldn't see their ages, but to him, it didn't matter—her body was all he cared about.

Though his main goal was to probe their strength, he couldn't help but admire Zhu Zhuqing's form.

"Scram." Zhu Zhuqing's voice was as cold as ice, fitting perfectly with her personality.

Su Ming immediately recognized the man—it was Kuang Xi from the Kuang Zhan Team. It seemed the arena supervisor had sent him over to test them. The Kuang Zhan Team was no joke; all its members were above level 35.

"Give me some respect, girl! Do you even know who I am?" Kuang Xi snapped, reaching out toward Zhu Zhuqing.

Zhu Zhuqing's eyes remained cold. If he dared touch her, she wouldn't just stand there and take it.

Dai Mubai saw Zhu Zhuqing about to be struck and saw this as a prime opportunity to earn her favor by stepping in. However, someone was even faster than him.

A massive wooden hand suddenly shot up from the ground and grabbed Kuang Xi. Caught off guard, the brute's expression shifted in panic as he tried to dodge, but the wooden hand moved too fast. In an instant, it wrapped tightly around him, and no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't break free. His face turned from black to a deep purple, unable to breathe.

Su Ming stepped forward, his dark eyes locked on Kuang Xi like a predator eyeing its prey. His voice was low and menacing. "What did you just say? Want to repeat that? I don't know who you think you are, but why are you so useless?"

Kuang Xi stared into Su Ming's pitch-black eyes, feeling as if he were a mere ant facing a giant. For the first time in his life, he felt like this young man could kill him with ease.


Chapter 191: Chapter 191: Defeating the Opponent in One Minute?

The giant man was struggling to breathe, and he could only manage to say with difficulty, "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding!"

Although Su Ming's sudden action surprised the group, except for Zhu Zhuqing, none of them were too shocked. After all, during their last visit to the Great Soul Arena, Dai Mubai had been similarly controlled by Su Ming, without anyone noticing until it was too late.

Zhu Zhuqing glanced silently at Su Ming without speaking, but inside, she felt a slight stir. Was it... dominance? Zhu Zhuqing couldn't quite describe it, but her heart seemed to beat just a little faster.

Dai Mubai, witnessing this familiar scene, felt embarrassed. Thankfully, his face was hidden under a mask, so it wasn't obvious. But the looks from his teammates made him uncomfortable.

He was a bit annoyed by Su Ming's behavior. Su Ming knew that Zhu Zhuqing was his fiancée, so why did he feel the need to protect her? Shouldn't this be Dai Mubai's moment to shine? Su Ming was already close with Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong—was he trying to steal Zhu Zhuqing as well? This thought bothered Dai Mubai deeply.

At this moment, the giant man's team members rushed over. The Spider Woman, with a charming voice, said, "I'm really sorry. It was our teammate's fault for being disrespectful. Actually, we're your next opponents in the Soul Arena. He just wanted to get a look at the rumored Iron Soul Sect team of Soul Elders. He meant no harm."

Xiao Wu, standing nearby, shot back, "Your teammate was about to strike! And you call that harmless?"

As she spoke, Xiao Wu released all four of her spirit rings. The pressure from her aura was immense, making the Spider Woman feel the weight of it. She began to question if agreeing to this fight was a mistake. The Arena supervisor had told them about this newly registered team of Soul Elders, which had two Soul Elders and five Soul Exalts. One of the Soul Elders was restricted to using only an auxiliary spirit ring in battle.

The Arena supervisor had asked them to take on this match with the promise of a significant reward if they won. So, they agreed. She had sent Kuang Xi over to probe their strength, but she hadn't expected Su Ming, who she thought was an auxiliary spirit master, to be this powerful. She had miscalculated.

Meanwhile, the rest of the Shrek team was seeing Xiao Wu's fourth spirit ring for the first time, and its deeper color compared to ordinary thousand-year rings surprised them. Xiao Wu had purposefully made the color more pronounced since she claimed it was a spirit ring obtained through an overlevel absorption, making it look like a 7,000-year-old ring.

Master finally fully believed Xiao Wu's story. However, he was also secretly relieved that Xiao Wu hadn't been as fortunate as Tang San, as she didn't receive a spirit bone from her overlevel absorption.

Xiao Wu: "Sorry, but I created this spirit ring myself, and it's a ten-thousand-year one!"

Just as things were about to escalate, the Arena supervisor arrived, sensing the tension. He quickly stepped forward and shouted, "Stop!"

"Do you not understand that fighting is not allowed in the resting area of the Soul Arena? If you want to fight, do it in the ring!"

Seeing the Arena supervisor intervening, Su Ming decided to let Kuang Xi go. Knowing the original storyline, he understood Kuang Xi's purpose was just to gauge their strength. That being the case, it was pointless to continue.

Kuang Xi, once released, gasped for air greedily. The power of this boy was terrifying, far beyond what he had expected from a normal Soul Elder. He had encountered Soul Elders before, but none had made him feel so powerless!

Yes, powerless! In front of Su Ming, he felt like he was sinking into a swamp, and if Su Ming wished, he could easily be swallowed by the abyss.

The Spider Woman, seeing the middle-aged supervisor arrive, immediately toned down her previous attitude and respectfully said, "Supervisor Ao, it won't happen again."

Ao, the supervisor, wasn't buying it. The Kuang Zhan team had a habit of sending someone to provoke their opponents before matches. This time, it seemed they had miscalculated and hit a brick wall!

He hadn't expected Kuang Xi to be so reckless. Nor did he anticipate that Shrek's strongest member was not an auxiliary spirit master, as he had initially thought.

The supervisor now realized that they needed to reevaluate Shrek's team. The Master had indeed made a significant concession by restricting Su Ming's abilities. Without that, the Kuang Zhan team wouldn't stand a chance.

Thankfully, Su Ming wasn't allowed to attack directly, so the Kuang Zhan team still had a chance.

Seeing that the Kuang Zhan team had calmed down, the supervisor turned to Master and said, "These are your next opponents. Despite Kuang Xi's earlier arrogance, he was just testing your strength. No harm was intended."

As he spoke, Ao cast a deep glance at Su Ming. Such a young man with this level of power—his background must be substantial!

Su Ming: "..."

"Kuang Zhan team has only been registered here for seven days, but they already have seven consecutive wins. If they win three more, they'll advance to a Bronze Soul team. Every member is above level 35. They have a reputation for leaving their opponents either severely injured or worse. They should be worthy opponents for you—provided this young man doesn't attack."

Dai Mubai smirked. "Didn't think our first team battle would be against such tough opponents. Severely injured or worse? Let's see them try!"

Su Ming added, "With our current strength, even without me attacking, Kuang Zhan's team is nothing special. Give Xiao Wu enough time, and she'll finish them off quickly."

No one from Shrek refuted Su Ming's words. They had seen Xiao Wu's power firsthand and knew it was true.

Suddenly, Su Ming had a playful idea and grinned. "How about we make this battle a little more interesting?"

"Brother, what do you have in mind?" Xiao Wu asked curiously.

The others also turned to Su Ming, curious about his new scheme.

"How about this: in the next match, we set a challenge for ourselves—to win the battle in under a minute."

"If we succeed, maybe Master will give us a vacation tomorrow!"
