Chapitre 347: Hidden Mystery, Seven Gem Spirits (1)
Everyone habitually rested in a corner. Eleven successive victories had no doubt long ago made them an existence like a crane in a flock of chickens among these competing academies, and scenes like at the start of the qualifiers when they were jeered at wouldn't appear again.
Even though a lot of people looked at them from all around, it was rare that anyone came close.
In the Spirit Master world, strength meant everything, and it was the same among Spirit Master academies. The feeling Shrek Academy gave everyone was of a team without any features, but it was this kind of team that had become a headache for each team they faced.
Tang San with the ten thousand year spirit ring had become the most favored competitor for Most Valuable Spirit Master in these qualifiers. At present, he already held more than half the votes.
As long as he wasn't defeated, he would without a doubt obtain this distinction. However, defeating a Spirit Ancestor with a ten thousand year spirit ring was easier said than done for these competitors.
The Shrek Academy group gathered leisurely, Ma Hongjun, with a difficult to scratch itch in his heart, said to Tang San:
"Third brother, why not let me go on stage today. I won't use my fourth spirit ability, alright?"
Tang San shot him a glance,
"No way. Zhuqing, you take over for Jiang Zhu today. Any problems?"
Along with everyone spending more and more time together, they participated in more and more fights.
Tang San's authority among the Shrek Seven Devils had already imperceptibly influenced everyone's hearts, especially those four younger then him, besides friendship, they all felt some respect for him.
Right now his position in the team was no lower than Dai Mubai's, or even higher.
Zhu Zhuqing stared blankly a moment,
"No problem."
Oscar puzzled said:
"Little San, that's not needed. We didn't dispatch Zhuqing even when we faced Blazing Academy. Is it needed to deal with trash like that Blue Sunshine Academy?"
Tang San said in a low voice:
"Blue Sunshine Academy might not truly be trash. You haven't paid attention to their record. From the start of the competition until now, Blue Sunshine Academy has only lost three times, and that was each against Elephant Armored Academy, Thunderclap Academy and Godwind Academy. When confronting others, they've won. Right now they're even above Elephant Armored Academy in the total ranking. Moreover, don't forget that dean Flender once warned us that their coaching teacher isn't ordinary. Right now Blue Sunshine Academy has lost to the Elephant Armored Academy, and later in the competition the powerful opponents they'll confront are us, Blazing Academy and Skywater Academy. In these three matches, they have to obtain at least two victories, the chance to advance to the next phase of the competition is in their hands. Further adding the grudge between our teams, I dare say that in today's competition they will inevitably go all out. I'm letting Zhuqing go up in order to ensure our victory."
Dai Mubai nodded:
"Good, we'll follow little San's plan. Aren't those Blue Sunshine kids too arrogant? Today we'll let them know trouble. Advancing to the ranking competition, that's lunatic ravings."
"Hey, are you Shrek Academy's team members?"
As Tang San began to prepare for the match, a sudden voice interrupted him.
Everyone turned their heads to look. In a cyan uniform, a youth with a somewhat handsome appearance looked at them with a smile.
Dai Mubai frowned,
"That's right, we're Shrek Academy, who are you?"
The youth grinned, saying:
"I'm called Feng Xiao Tian, perhaps you haven't heard my name. That doesn't matter, we'll come across each other in the tournament later. I've come to encourage you. Definitely make an effort. Destroy that Blue Sunshine Academy."
En? Dai Mubai and Tang San looked face to face, both somewhat astounded.
Even though they hadn't seen their opponents' matches, judging from this fellow's uniform they could tell he should be from Godwind Academy.
Altogether twenty eight teams participated in the qualifiers, everyone wanted to win, and all wanted to enter the next stage. It was very rare that they interacted. Since the start of the competition, this was the first time anyone took the initiative to be friendly.
Tang San nodded, saying:
"We will."
Feng Xiaotian smiled:
"You must be Tang San. I believe in your strength. However, you have to be a bit careful. Our Academy once fought Blue Sunshine Academy. Even though their strength is quite ordinary, when they fought us, I always felt they didn't use their full strength. It seemed they were careful to cover something up. I think highly of you. At least until you meet our Academy, you definitely can't lose. Alright, you rest, I'll leave first."
This fellow left as quickly as he came, leaving behind a pile of words making everyone mystified, and quickly departed. Even if everyone from Shrek Academy were astute, they still couldn't figure out just what Feng Xiaotian wanted, and even less why he would come over to encourage them.
Only Feng Xiaotian knew the answer to this. Finished speaking, he very quickly returned to the side of his team mates.
"Captain, what were you doing?"
"I went to encourage Shrek Academy!"
Feng Xiaotian stated with a smile.
"Encourage them? Captain, you represent our Godwind Academy, in front of so many people..."
Feng Xiaotian made no secret of it,
"What's there to fear, as long as I can marry the beauty, everything else is fleeting as clouds."
One Godwind Academy team member baffled asked:
"How's encouraging the Shrek Academy related to you marrying a beauty?"
Feng Xiaotian said:
"Of course it's related, did you forget? Huo Wu said that as long as I beat Tang San, she'll be my girlfriend. If by some chance someone else beats Tang San before me, won't she also agree to their proposals? Therefore, before meeting us, Shrek Academy can't lose, this is called taking preventative measures."
"Eh..."
Looking at Feng Xiaotian's somewhat idiotically proud appearance, all the Godwind Academy students couldn't help choking speechlessly...
Even though the matches still hadn't started, the teams waiting in the rest area could hear the din of the cheering spectators outside.
What drew the most attention from the audience, was without exception the most popular candidates.
But in order to make the competition exciting, these teams would all appear in different rounds each day. Only like the day before when Shrek Academy faced Blazing Academy, would two powerful teams appear in the same round.
Tang San stood quietly, watching the Blue Sunshine Academy gathering quietly in a distant corner and talking about something. Adjusting his breathing, he let the Mysterious Heaven Skill internal strength warm up to peak condition.
All kinds of tactics constantly appeared in his mind, they were all already prepared for the battle.
Without waiting too long, the second round matches ended, and it was time for the teams participating in the third round to appear.
Shrek Academy moved away from the rest area together with Blue Sunshine Academy, the members on both teams watching their counterparts carefully. Compared to the proud Shrek Academy, the Blue Sunshine Academy's seven members all expressed a cold air, a fierce light flickering in their eyes as if they wanted to bite the Shrek Academy team.
Blue Sunshine Academy's seven members were all male, all wearing moon white uniforms, their auras all reserved. Just like Tang San judged, these opponents weren't so easy to deal with.
At the same time as they entered the passage, the Blazing Academy team returning after just finishing a match. Tang San didn't pay any attention to them, but Blazing Academy's members all focused their gazes on them. Especially Huo Wu, who instantly picked out Tang San's silhouette among the Shrek Academy team.
Yi? Huo Wu's heart twitched, her face immediately showing fury, looking fiercely at Tang San, a burst of angry pain in her heart.
It was also no wonder she was angry. Their research into Shrek Academy was already rather incisive, and seeing that Shrek Academy's formation was somewhat different from yesterday, Huo Wu immediately recalled the members constituting Shrek Academy. They had replaced an auxiliary system Spirit Master with a fortieth rank Spirit Ancestor. 'Tang San, you bastard, you only had two Spirit Ancestors when confronting our Blazing Academy, now you've changed to three, don't tell me we're not even equal to this Blue Whatever Academy?'
The more Huo Wu thought, the angrier she got. With a ferocious meaning in her eyes, she deliberately stumbled, her shoulder striking straight at Tang San.
Both teams were passing each other when Tang San suddenly felt a strong with towards his shoulder. Practically subconsciously, his body reacted instantly.
Dropping his shoulder and staggering his pace, his shoulder first shifted back, letting Huo Wu strike and largely neutralizing the force, then, the moment the old force had faded but no new had been born, his shoulder practically stuck to Huo Wu's shoulder, his strength suddenly erupting at the last moment. With a cry of surprise, Huo Wu was directly sent tumbling.
Fortunately this was only Tang San's subconscious reaction, using something similar to the Clothed Eighteen Drops technique. If she had touched Tang San's poisoned hidden weapons, perhaps she wouldn't have come off so easily.
Seeing his little sister being sent flying, Huo Wushuan hastily moved to catch her. The Blazing Academy team immediately stopped, barring the way for Shrek Academy's seven participating members, glaring at them.
The Blue Sunshine Academy team naturally saw it and stopped as well. Not only did they find it entertaining, but it seemed like it could get out of hand at any moment.
