Capítulo 174: Chapter 174: Mocking Shrek
Hearing Tang San's childish remarks, Su Wen sneered and didn't even want to respond.
Su Wen's attitude made Tang San very angry.
"Su Wen, no matter what opportunities you've had that gave you your current strength, that doesn't give you the right to look down on others."
Compared to the time at Nuoding Academy when Su Wen silently trained, was so quiet that he had no presence, and neither made friends nor enemies, Tang San deeply felt the changes in Su Wen.
Perhaps this is the mental shift brought about by different talents.
Even now, Tang San couldn't help but feel a little insecure when facing Su Wen, because Su Wen's displayed abilities were too strong and his potential too great.
However, Tang San knew his own talent and that his strengths would come into play later on.
"My second Martial Spirit is the Clear Sky Hammer. Once I add Spirit Rings to it, all of them being ten-thousand-year-old Spirit Rings, my strength will surpass any Spirit Master on the Continent!" As Tang San thought this, his gaze became sharper.
No, not just in the future.
"Su Wen, I haven't had the chance to fight you before. I hope I can face you in the upcoming finals. Then, I'll show you my true strength."
Su Wen's disrespect towards Yu Xiaogang made Tang San determined to use his ultimate move in the upcoming finals.
"Anytime," Su Wen said indifferently. He kindly reminded, "Of course, the prerequisite is that you all manage to last until the match against me."
The Spirit Master Competition's rules are quite complex, with passes in the first three rounds of the finals.
The three passes in the first three rounds are not entirely dependent on drawing lots.
The three teams with passes in the first round are the three favorite teams to win: Emperor Fighting Team 2, Star Luo Imperial Team, and Spirit Hall Team.
The total of thirty teams from the two great empires will draw lots to compete, completing a round of selection and leaving a total of 18 teams (15+3).
Theoretically, Su Wen's Emperor Fighting Team 2 will participate in the second round.
For Tang San to face Su Wen again, Shrek must first make it into the top eighteen in the finals.
In the original work, this wouldn't be difficult. After all, with the configuration of the entire team being Spirit Ancestors, they were essentially set to be runners-up.
But now it's different. Without the Immortal Grasses, Shrek's members have much lower Soul Power levels.
Dai Mubai barely broke through level 40 and gained his Fourth Spirit Skill.
Aside from Dai Mubai, only Tang San's Soul Power reached level 39. Tai Long's Soul Power is at level 36. The three substitutes, Huang Yuan, Jing Ling, and Jiang Zhu, are all at level 35. However, the Soul Power of the four main team members hasn't reached level 35.
With such a lineup, facing opponents who have an average of two to four Spirit Ancestors, it won't be easy.
Tang San can carry the team, but his ability to do so is limited.
In the preliminary and advancement matches, his abilities have already been fully displayed and thoroughly analyzed. Opponents have started devising targeted tactics against him, so his effectiveness in the finals will only diminish.
Hearing Su Wen's words, Tang San's face grew heavy.
Indeed, with the current Shrek Team, they would need luck just to make it to the second round.
Even if they make it to the top eighteen and enter the second round, can they really draw the Emperor Fighting Team 2?
It's unlikely.
To increase competitiveness, there are some manipulations in the drawing process.
In the first round, the thirty teams are divided so that the fifteen teams from each empire face the fifteen teams from the other empire.
In other words, in the first round of the competition, the fifteen teams from Heaven Dou Empire will not compete against each other but will face the fifteen teams from Star Luo Empire one by one.
Even though it's known that there are implicit agreements in the drawing process, no one explains or questions it.
Because the fifteen teams from the same empire have already fought in the advancement matches, both sides look forward to the freshness and the deterrence against the rival empire.
In the second round, although there are no such implicit methods, it is still not entirely random.
There is still a high probability that it will be a confrontation between Heaven Dou Empire and Star Luo Empire.
The Emperor Fighting Team 2 will likely face a team from Star Luo Empire, and similarly, the favored Star Luo Empire Team will face a team from Heaven Dou Empire.
In other words, even if Shrek Team enters the second round, the chances of encountering Emperor Fighting Team 2 are still very small.
By the third round, only ten teams remain.
Can Shrek's strength secure them a spot among these ten teams?
This is why Tang San remained silent.
Su Wen's remarks were not just a reminder but also a mockery.
"We, Shrek, will make it to the third round, not just the third round; we'll even reach the top six and the top three. If it weren't for our age, why would we be afraid of you? In the next competition, we'll be strong enough to compete for the championship!" Ma Hongjun and others walked over, with Ma Hongjun speaking loudly.
After Dai Mubai broke through to Spirit Ancestor, Shrek's performance in the advancement matches was quite impressive. They were not ranked at the bottom among the fifteen teams; instead, their overall ranking reached eighth place.
With such a level of performance despite their lower Soul Power, Ma Hongjun and the others were quite proud.
If it weren't for their age, they believed they could dominate an era.
Currently, in the Shrek Team, aside from Dai Mubai, Oscar, and Tai Long, the other four members are Spirit Elders, and all of them are under fifteen years old, meaning they can still participate in two more Spirit Master Competitions.
After ten years, even those with Soul Power below level 35 now would be able to rise above level 45 or even level 50!
Their arrogance still has its basis.
However, Su Wen sneered coldly.
"Forget about the next competition. You might not know about the lineup of the Spirit Hall Team."
"At worst, they have a Spirit King. Do you think we're afraid of them?" Ma Hongjun, in a haughty manner, was very displeased.
What's the big deal about having a Spirit King?
"This year's Spirit Hall Team has three Spirit Kings. If my information is correct, two of them also possess the Spirit Fusion Technique," Su Wen said calmly.
He looked at Ma Hongjun and glanced at the Shrek members, asking, "Do you still think it's nothing?"
Ma Hongjun's neck turned a deep red.
With such a lineup, he indeed didn't dare to boast any further.
Oh my!
Three Spirit Kings, and two of them possess the Spirit Fusion Technique? Such a lineup...
Not only Shrek but even the other Spirit Masters watching from the surrounding teams were shocked.
They all had some knowledge about the absurd lineup of Spirit Hall for this year's Spirit Master Competition through various channels.
But they didn't expect it to be this outrageous.
The fact that there are three Spirit Kings was something some academies had already gathered.
However, no one anticipated that two of these three Spirit Kings could perform the Spirit Fusion Technique.
Two Spirit Kings performing the Spirit Fusion Technique might not be able to rival a Spirit Saint, but they could definitely contend with and even defeat most Spirit Emperors!
