Kapitel 413: Chapter 413: Thunder Academy Gets Mocked Again, Feng Xiaotian’s Simp Move, A Duel?
As Tang San and Tang Hao were searching for a suitable ten-thousand-year spirit beast, they were suddenly attacked by a Titan Giant Ape.
This encounter instantly rekindled Tang San's deep-seated fear of the creature. Why was he so unlucky? Last time he came here with Teacher Zhao to hunt a spirit beast, he'd run into this same ape. Did he have some unresolved grudge with the Titan Giant Ape?
What he didn't know was that Er Ming was just being playful. Additionally, since Er Ming knew that Xiao Wu wasn't on good terms with Tang San, he was more than happy to stir up trouble. There was also a minor reason: strictly speaking, Tang Hao could be considered Er Ming's enemy.
The Star Dou Forest had once housed another Titan Giant Ape, but it was killed by someone wielding a giant hammer. Though Er Ming wasn't close to that other ape, they shared the same species, and after some deduction, it seemed most likely that Tang Hao was the culprit.
At first, Tang Hao told Tang San not to worry and began to battle the Titan Giant Ape alone. They fought each other to a standstill, but Tang Hao avoided using his explosive ring technique or the Grand Xu Mi Hammer, as he was still recovering from his injuries and didn't want to risk it. Otherwise, he might have thought about going all out to take down the Titan Giant Ape.
After hours of fighting, Tang Hao realized that without using his forbidden techniques, he couldn't gain the upper hand, so he decided to withdraw with Tang San, intending to return once Tang San reached the Soul Douluo rank to obtain a ten-thousand-year ring for his Clear Sky Hammer.
However, the Titan Giant Ape didn't make it easy, stubbornly pursuing them and summoning nearby spirit beasts over fifty thousand years old to attack. Forced to fight while retreating, Tang Hao and Tang San finally left the Star Dou Forest, realizing they wouldn't be able to return anytime soon.
Tang San, pale-faced, asked, "Father, what should we do now? It's like this Titan Giant Ape has a vendetta against us!"
Tang Hao shook his head, "Forget it. We'll settle this score once you reach Soul Douluo. For now, let's head to Sunset Forest; there'll be a suitable ten-thousand-year spirit beast for you there."
Meanwhile, as Tang San finally returned after days of obstacles, the qualifying rounds were nearing their end. Fortunately, he managed to obtain a fifth spirit ring, absorbing the ring and even the body of a Crypt Demon Spider using his Blue Silver Grass. Along the way, he'd absorbed quite a few spirit beasts, and if he had more time, he would have stayed longer in the forest.
His spirit power had increased to level fifty-three, and he felt confident that, should he face Blazing Academy, Tianshui Academy, or even Su Ming again, he could hold his own. But little did he know, everything he did was under the watchful eye of Su Ming's surveillance drones.
Su Ming couldn't help but marvel at the mutation of Tang San's "Mysterious Heaven Skill," propelling his rank forward so quickly. Despite its power, Su Ming found the cultivation method vile and inhumane. He realized it was time to stop Tang San's growth and decided to deal with him after the Spirit Master Competition.
While Su Ming's cultivation had increased by one level, reaching fifty-eight, his progress wasn't as rapid as Tang San's, though he wasn't in a rush. Tang San would face the consequences of his actions eventually.
The last match in the qualifying rounds pitted Thunder Academy against Blazing Academy, and Tang San managed to make it to the event in time. However, due to a prior agreement, the host announced, "Due to the agreement between Thunder Academy and Blazing Academy, Blazing Academy is the victor!"
The audience laughed heartily. "Thunder Academy got humiliated again!"
"Did you notice? In this year's qualifying round, Thunder Academy came in fourth again, losing to Kamikaze Academy, Tianshui Academy, and Blazing Academy."
"Yeah, it seems like Tianshui and Blazing Academy are dominating this year. They both beat Thunder and Kamikaze."
"Exactly! And Kamikaze Academy even forfeited to Blazing Academy. I heard their captain, Feng Xiaotian, surrendered because he likes Huo Wu?"
"What? He surrendered on purpose? You sure? Huo Wu doesn't need Feng Xiaotian to go easy on her. Just one hit from her Fusion Ring technique would have him seeing stars! From what I've heard, she doesn't even like him. He's just a desperate simp!"
The chatter filled the venue, making Thunder and Kamikaze Academies feel humiliated. Thunder Academy was upset because they had been overshadowed by Blazing and Tianshui Academies, while Kamikaze Academy was irked by the rumors circulating about them.
What irked Feng Xiaotian most was hearing that Huo Wu had been spending time with Su Ming, the captain of the first Heaven Dou team. Could his goddess Huo Wu actually be interested in Su Ming? Feng Xiaotian couldn't take it. He'd pursued Huo Wu for years only to be coldly rebuffed, and now she seemed interested in someone younger than him.
So, after the qualifying round, Feng Xiaotian approached Su Ming.
"Su Ming, I challenge you to a duel! The loser stays away from Huo Wu!"
Su Ming: ???
What on earth? "Stay away from Huo Wu?" He did like Huo Wu, but their relationship was nothing but pure friendship so far. Where did Feng Xiaotian get this idea from?
Su Ming was somewhat taken aback; although he hadn't shown the full extent of his power, it was widely rumored that he had the strength of a Soul King. Did Feng Xiaotian really think he could handle him?
Just then, Huo Wu, who'd come looking for Su Ming, overheard the confrontation. Furious, she snapped, "Feng Xiaotian! What are you doing? My personal affairs are none of your business!"
Feng Xiaotian quickly shifted his tone, responding in a pleading voice, "Huo Wu, this is a matter between two men. You don't need to get involved."
