Chapitre 12: Chapter 12: No Honor in Combat
Faced with the oncoming stone spikes, Tang San dared not confront them directly. He moved swiftly, using Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track to evade.
However, at that moment, Yue Gong's first spirit ring lit up, and his massive bear paw made a pulling motion in the air.
"Raging Bear Pull!"
An invisible force enveloped Tang San, slowing him down. It was as if his entire body had been weighed down, making every movement laborious.
The next moment, a giant stone spike rose from the ground and struck Tang San's waist and abdomen.
"Ugh!"
Tang San was sent flying, coughing up a mouthful of blood.
"Brother San, are you okay?!"
Meng Bei rushed forward to support Tang San, his face full of concern.
But before they could recover, Yue Gong advanced quickly, his massive frame bearing down on them like a mountain ready to crush Tang San.
Seeing this, Fatty (Ma Hongjun) unleashed a Phoenix Fire Line from his mouth, striking Yue Gong.
However, the fire barely scorched Yue Gong's stone armor, failing to penetrate it.
Meng Bei gently set Tang San aside and stepped forward.
"Flying Snow Step!"
He launched an ice-infused attack toward Yue Gong.
Yue Gong countered with his fists.
*Boom!*
The collision forced both to take several steps back.
Ice and snow coated Yue Gong's hands, chilling him to the bone. His second spirit ability's stone armor had cracked under the impact, leaving his hands nearly numb.
Shocked by Meng Bei's strength, Yue Gong was momentarily stunned.
At that moment, Tang San stood up from behind Meng Bei and launched a sneak attack.
"Blue Silver Bind!"
Tang San shouted, summoning thick vines of Blue Silver Grass to entangle Yue Gong.
In an instant, Yue Gong was wrapped tightly.
Tang San smiled, thinking the attack had succeeded.
But Yue Gong suddenly moved. Gripping the vines, he yanked backward with tremendous force.
Tang San, unable to resist, was pulled forward at great speed.
*Boom!*
With a powerful swing, Yue Gong slammed Tang San into the ground, creating a human-shaped crater.
"Stop interfering with my fight with that kid, you weakling!" Yue Gong sneered, tossing aside the Blue Silver Grass without sparing Tang San a second glance. His gaze shifted to Meng Bei.
"Argh!"
Tang San roared in anger, struggling to stand. His mouth was bloodied, and his eyes burned with fury.
"You've sealed your fate!"
Despite his words, Tang San was clearly weakened. His shaky stance betrayed the toll the battle had taken.
Meng Bei thought to himself, *This Tang San is incredibly resilient, but can he still fight? If he goes down, all the pressure will fall on me.*
Unwilling to let that happen, Meng Bei decided to provoke Tang San into continuing.
Feigning concern, Meng Bei shouted:
"Brother San, don't push yourself! I don't think you can beat him. Let me handle him while you focus on executing the Master's plan."
Hearing this, Tang San clenched his fists, his bloodstained face lighting up with determination.
"No! This guy is no match for me. I haven't even shown my true strength yet. Meng Bei, Fatty, if you're my brothers, don't interfere. I'll defeat him myself!"
Tang San stood up straighter and called out:
"Rongrong!"
Ning Rongrong understood immediately.
"Seven Treasures, Glazed Tile Tower. First, Strength. Second, Speed!"
Two beams of colorful light enveloped Tang San, boosting his power and speed significantly.
Grandmaster had instructed Ning Rongrong before the match to conserve her spirit energy since their opponents' spirit power levels were generally higher. She was to use her abilities only at crucial moments.
Now was one such moment.
Using Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, Tang San's figure blurred into afterimages as he charged toward Yue Gong.
"Good!" Yue Gong roared, swinging his massive bear paw at Tang San.
But Tang San's eyes gleamed with cunning. As Yue Gong's attack neared, Tang San twisted his body into an impossible angle, rolling under Yue Gong's legs and emerging behind him.
The next moment, eight sharp spider spears erupted from Tang San's back.
Though Grandmaster had forbidden Tang San from revealing his Eight Spider Lances to avoid drawing unnecessary trouble, Tang San was determined to win and prove himself.
The spider spears lunged at Yue Gong's back with lethal precision.
Tang San was confident that the poison in the Eight Spider Lances would incapacitate Yue Gong, if not kill him outright.
However, just as victory seemed within reach—
"Rock Lizard Charge!"
A deafening roar echoed behind Tang San.
Pan Zhi, the Rock Armor Team's defense spirit master, barreled into Tang San, ramming him in the back with his horned lizard martial soul.
Tang San was sent flying, blood spraying in an arc, before crashing heavily to the ground.
Fortunately, Meng Bei caught him just before he flew out of bounds.
Xiao Wu, worried for Tang San, wanted to rush over. However, Ding Fei and Ding Jian were closing in, forcing her and Zhu Zhuqing to stay and protect Ning Rongrong.
Xiao Wu's gaze flicked to Meng Bei, who had caught Tang San.
*"Why is that scoundrel helping so much? Is it because of what happened last night?"*
She found herself wondering, *Should I repay him somehow?*
Her thoughts began to drift...
Meng Bei shook Tang San urgently.
"Brother San, are you okay? Please tell me you're okay!"
He genuinely hoped Tang San could keep fighting—Meng Bei still needed him to complete the plan.
Under Meng Bei's shaking, Tang San finally opened his eyes weakly.
Pointing a trembling finger at Yue Gong and his team, Tang San muttered:
"They… have no honor!"
