To Ning Rongrong's eye, although Zhu Zhuqing's spirit power was one rank lower than Ma Hongjun's, their cooperation was clearly much better than with someone whose Evil Fire pressure was constantly rising. When fighting in two versus two she didn't want to be flirting with the comrade in arms next to her.
Ma Hongjun rumbled:
"Rongrong, you're still discriminating against me. I protest."
Ning Rongrong giggled, employing her gentle and soft strategy,
"Fourth brother, you're so strong, wouldn't it be a pity to join with me in two versus two? Anyway you're certain to win in one versus one, right?"
Ma Hongjun's immunity to beautiful women was originally very low. Seeing the tender smile on Ning Rongrong's face, how could he object, and could only accept reality.
"How you choose to participate is up to you. I'll give you these, unless there are no people around, wear them when in spirit battles. At the same time, when speaking on stage, you must not let the opponent know your age."
While speaking, Grandmaster pulled out seven long ago prepared masks from within his spirit tool bracelet.
The masks were very familiar to everyone, exactly the symbol of Shrek Academy, the image of the green monster Shrek. Dai Mubai took and put the mask over his face. Although the craftsmanship was ordinary, after it was fitted to the face it only revealed the eyes, mouth and nose, and was not hindrance at all.
"When participating in team battles, you will do so as the Shrek Seven Devils team. When participating in your own bouts, you can name your two versus two combinations yourselves. For one versus one, I will give each of you a name, use this nickname to compete. As long as you explain it when signing up, your real names won't appear in the spirit arena."
Everyone could understand Grandmaster's intention. They were after all too young, especially twelve year olds like Tang San and Xiao Wu who had already reached the thirtieth ranked Spirit Elder state, casually revealing this to the whole Spirit Master world would be universally shocking. Especially when becoming well known at Great Spirit Arena, perhaps Spirit Hall would first come call on them.
Oscar curiously asked:
"Then what names will we use?"
Grandmaster said:
"Mubai uses his original Evil Eye White Tiger, you are still that Sausage Monopoly. As for little San, use Thousand Hands Silver Grass. What do you think?"
"This is no good. Change it.
Xiao Wu rushed to say:
"It's not stylish anywhere. Silver grass is too unpleasant to hear."
Grandmaster looked at Tang San, seeing he didn't express any opinion, on his face couldn't help but reveal a smile. Regarding this disciple of his, Grandmaster was always extremely pleased,
"Then you say it, just what name would be good?"
Dai Mubai said:
"Although little San ordinarily seems sincere, he can really flip out, with a killing instinct heavier than all of us. I say, calling him Thousand Hands Asura is good. Asura has the meaning of a devil of massacre, it could also have a certain intimidating effect on the opponent."
Grandmaster said to Tang San:
"What do you think?"
Tang San said:
"It doesn't matter to me, you decide Teacher."
Grandmaster said:
"Then we'll call you Thousand Hands Asura. Ma Hongjun, I'll also help you pick a good name. How about calling you Evil Fire Phoenix?"
Fatty smiled mischievously,
"Many thanks Grandmaster, this is good. How to say, I'm also a Phoenix."
To the side Oscar mumbled:
"En, it's a Phoenix, only, I think calling it Brothel Phoenix is even better."
Fatty said indignantly,
"Little Ao, are you deliberately undermining me?"
Xiao Wu had now already stepped before Grandmaster, assuming a pitiful appearance,
"Grandmaster, then what am I called? You must give me something that sounds pleasant, eh."
Grandmaster said with a smile:
"When you use the Soft Skill your whole body is soft as if boneless. Adding your Rabbit Spirit and Demon Confusion ability, it would be best to call you Soft Bones Demon Rabbit."
"It sounds pretty good."
Xiao Wu immediately smiled happily.
"Rongrong's spirit is Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda. There's nothing that describes you better than Seven Treasures Glazed Tile. At the same time it can also mask you a bit. After all, this is the spirit of direct disciples of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School. As for Zhuqing, using her spirit as a name is most suitable. Hell Civet is on its own a pretty good name."
At that moment, the Shrek Seven Devils had their own names.
Evil Eye White Tiger Dai Mubai,
Sausage Monopoly Oscar,
Thousand Hands Asura Tang San,
Evil Fire Phoenix Ma Hongjun,
Soft Bones Demon Rabbit Xiao Wu,
Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Ning Rongrong,
Hell Civet Zhu Zhuqing.
None of them would have thought that the names they chose in this common inn would not only follow them for a lifetime, but also resound across the Continent. The team Shrek Seven Devils could be considered truly formed starting on this day.
In order to maintain peak condition, everyone remained in the inn to cultivate their spirit power, waiting for nightfall.
Right now the seven were all on the iron spirit fight level. Among them Dai Mubai had three points, Oscar had nil, Tang San because of participating with Xiao Wu in one on one and two on two bouts, consequently had two points. Ma Hongjun also prevailed over his opponent last time, with the most points of everyone, already reaching ten. Moreover he had three consecutive victories. XIao Wu just like Tang San had two points. Ning Rongrong had nil. Last time Zhu Zhuqing's opponent was little San, and since she lost the contest she had no points.
Going from iron spirit fights to copper spirit fights required one hundred points, advancing to silver spirit fights were one thousand points. Their distance to the goal of this second stage special training was still a very long road.
Because Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun and Zhu Zhuqing were all already classified as high level within their classes, adding to their own outstanding spirits, they decided to first participate in a one versus one spirit fight, afterwards again participating in two versus two. This kind of time was enough for Oscar's effect to appear clearly, with a supply of his big sausages, everyone's spirit power and physical strength could be effectively resupplied. Compared to ordinary Spirit Masters joining spirit battles it was an even greater advantage. Therefore, even participating in three spirit battles wasn't impossible, provided they didn't waste too much spirit power in the first fights.
Tang San and Xiao Wu's third spirit abilities could both be said to be top quality spirit abilities, therefore although they both had only just broken through the thirtieth rank, they still decided to participate in one versus one spirit battles. Tang San had previously already defeated Dai Mubai, so naturally he held a lot of confidence. And for Xiao Wu who as long as she got in close to the opponent was very difficult to resist, also had complete confidence.
Xiao Wu's weak points and advantages were both extremely clear. Her advantage was being unrivalled when in close to a similarly ranked opponent, but her weak point was that she could only deal with one opponent. When the opponents were numerous, it was very difficult to use her strength, and when the opponent's physical strength exceeded the power of her Waist Bow, her ability would become completely useless.
As for Oscar and Ning Rongrong, they could only wait until after everyone had participated in one on one spirit battles to again join with them in two versus two bouts.
At nightfall, Suotuo Great Spirit Arena bustled with noise and excitement like every day, a restless crowd began to gather from all directions. As in most of history, it was also the most oppressed masses who enjoyed the entertainment. Every day this place would gather numerous spectators.
