Purple Demon Eye's mental attack directly pierced the brain, causing spirit power backlash. True, the seven Blue Sunshine Academy members weren't dead, but they had already become imbeciles. Certain neurological damage made them forever unable to recover. Even the best healing system Spirit Masters were helpless in front of the incomparably precise system that was the brain.
Tang San had never been a good hearted person, and he was even less like as ordinary as on the surface. Tang Sect itself was both just and nefarious, starting off leniently when facing an opponent that might become a threat would only lead to disaster.
From seeing the opponents' seven fusion ability, to the opponents launching their attack, Tang san had informed his team members of the method to defeat the enemies within the bright light. This process was completed with the speed of lightning. With the force of thunder, a single strike. The decisive ferocity within it amply revealed the heart of an Asura under Tang San's unremarkable surface.
It was also because of this that Dai Mubai would say Tang San was ferocious. As the strongest of everyone, at that time, apart from Tang San, he had suffered the least influence. Therefore he had vaguely guessed Tang San's way of dealing with it. Regarding this companion, right now even this Evil Eye White Tiger couldn't help but inwardly feel some respect and fear.
The first to express support of Tang San was unexpectedly Ma Hongjun. Fatty's hands supported Huang Yuan and Jing Ling,
"Third brother, I support you, mercy to the enemy is cruelty to oneself."
The gazes of the Shrek Seven Devils flowed together, and nobody made any more doubtful noises. Even though Tang San's explanation was very simple, the feelings of brotherhood between them had no doubt manifested. They all thought of the same thing. If Blue Sunshine Academy had won, would they have gone easy on them?
Returning to the rest area, several hundred gazes fell on them practically simultaneously. When someone outside had shouted the words 'seven spirit fusion ability', the competitors in the rest area had all run out, and also saw the final conclusion.
Blazing Academy's Huo Wushuang and Huo Wu had seen it, and Godwind Academy's Feng Xiaotian had naturally also seen it.
The match hadn't lasted long, and nobody had seen just how Shrek Academy had won. But they all saw the final result.
Not everyone had the insight of Grandmaster and Ning Fengzhi. The shock a seven spirit fusion ability caused all the competitors was difficult to describe in words. However, Blue Sunshine Academy had still lost. After using a seven spirit fusion ability, they had still lost. Moreover, everyone had clearly seen that Shrek Academy hadn't even moved as Blue Sunshine Academy launched their fusion ability, just letting them store power.
Even though only Tang San was left finally standing on the stage, that Shrek Academy had finally prevailed over Blue Sunshine Academy's seven spirit fusion ability was very difficult to accept for these competing academy members. Especially Huo Wu.
Feng Xiaotian looked at the somewhat staggering Tang San, and inwardly he couldn't help a burst of nervousness. 'Heavens, that was a seven spirit fusion ability. And that actually couldn't beat them? This Tang San is too abnormal. Is he really less than twenty five years old?'
Originally he had complete confidence in himself, believed that Huo Wu would definitely become his girlfriend this time, but after the battle outside just now he was completely without confidence. Looking at Tang San he couldn't help losing spirit.
Tang San indicated Ma Hongjun's trio should release their 'seriously hurt' companions to the side, and let Jiang Zhu use her healing scepter. He himself turned to those hundreds of gazes, only calmly saying one thing.
"You don't need to look at us like that. That wasn't a seven spirit fusion ability."
Ignoring those stunned gazes, Tang San sat down next to his companions and closed his eyes to rest.
Even though it was only a simple explanation, it still pulled him back from a godly position to the category of an ordinary person, and a lot of people had feeling of letting out a long breath.
At this moment, Grandmaster, Liu Erlong and Flender had already rushed over. After Tang San had exchanged a few words in a low voice with Grandmaster, they quickly left the rest area under mutual support.
Watching their disappearing silhouettes, countless competitors immediately started commenting. They all really wanted to believe Tang San's explanation. After all, prevailing over an opponent with a seven spirit fusion ability in a situation where level didn't differ much was impossible. What's more, that seven spirit fusion ability was only a legendary divine ability.
The audience got a feast for their eyes, but the match today also left all sorts of different notions in peoples' hearts. Powers on all sides pondered over just how the Shrek Academy team had obtained victory today.
Very soon, news came from the Blue Sunshine Academy side. All the seven students that participated in the fight had completely lost the ability to think. All had become imbeciles. They had moreover raised stern protests to the organizational committee, demanding severe punishments for Shrek Academy.
For this reason, Heaven Dou Empire and Spirit Hall jointly established a special investigative group, to separately make inquiries into both sides. At the same time, Heaven Dou City's Spirit Temple dispatched two Spirit Sage level healing system Spirit Masters to specially treat the Blue Sunshine Academy seven team members.
But just like Tang San predicted, the brain was the most complex part of the human body. It wasn't something that could easily be restored by healing spirit abilities, and nobody had still truly seen through the mysteries of the mental world. Spirit Hall's treatment was naturally futile.
Returning to Shrek Academy, the Golden Iron Triangle directly gathered the Shrek Academy team's all eleven members to a conference room.
Right now there was no need for anyone to keep acting, and the originally 'seriously injured' six people all returned to normal.
Flender's face was somewhat serious, his gaze first turning to Tang San, and afterwards sweeping across the other six who had participated in the match today.
"If I'm not mistaken, then in less than two hours, the tournament organizational committee will dispatch an investigative team to our Academy to conduct inquiries into the match today. I don't know how you did it, but Grandmaster told me just now that the opponents have completely become imbeciles."
Everyone looked at each other, nobody uttering a word. Everyone's gazes finally concentrated on Tang San.
Flender glared at Tang San, saying:
"You little monster, looking for trouble for me. The seven of you who participated in the match, later immediately go quietly cultivate. I will use your healing process to explain to the other side. Eh, no, little San, you stay behind. We still need someone to be investigated. At least on the surface your injuries were the lightest, that makes you the most suitable candidate."
"Yes."
"The six of you leave now. Erlong, find them someplace hidden, have Zhao Wuji and Lu Ji Bin go there to guard them personally. Don't let anyone see them. Oh, right, call over Shao Bin as well. That Sweet Pea Spirit of his is suitable to cover up their injuries. Jiang Zhu, you go too. Appearance is important, more healing system Spirit Masters is better."
Right now Flender fully revealed the poise of a dean. Liu Erlong stood, smiled at Tang San, praise in her eyes, then brought Dai Mubai and the others away. She was originally the slaughtering corner of the Golden Iron Triangle, so of course she quite liked Tang San's unwaveringly fierce way of dealing with things.
Once Liu Erlong's group had left, only Flender, Grandmaster, Tang San, Oscar, Ma Hongjun and Ning Rongrong remained in the room.
Flender pulled out a chair and sat, but didn't utter a word. He raised his hand to rhythmically tap the table, seemingly pondering something. Grandmaster sat to the side from the start, with a calm and easygoing appearance.
Before long, Flender raised his head, saying:
"Little San, if the investigators later ask you how you broke the opponents' seven spirit fusion ability, how will you answer?"
Tang San sincerely said:
"I don't know."
In battle his insight was boundless, but in this kind of scheming, he could never catch up to Flender.
Flender's eyes brightened, saying:
"Good, remember that answer."
"Ah?"
Tang San looked distracted a moment, but he reacted very quickly,
"I'll answer that I don't know?"
Flender grinned, saying:
"That's right, whatever they ask you, just say that you don't know. Tell the investigators that because you couldn't clearly see the outside at that time, you just constantly released your spirit abilities. Once the surroundings became clear again, everything was already over. You basically don't know what happened."
Tang San blinked,
"Will that work?"
Flender snorted coldly,
"Why wouldn't it? Those investigator fellows are just making the rounds. Nobody actually saw what happened that time. As long as you stick to the three words 'I don't know', they won't be able to extort a confession. As long as there's no proof, we'll say those Blue Sunshine Academy students lost control of their spirit ability, and were turned to vegetables by the backlash. What can they do? Everything needs proof."
Ma Hongjun behind Tang San thought out loud:
"Isn't this villainous?"
Laughter escaped from Grandmaster to the side,
"Now you know, in villainy, who can compare to the grandmaster of scoundrels, Flender."
Flender unhappily shot Grandmaster a glare,
"Don't tear down my authority, ok? Little San, do you remember?"
Tang San hastily nodded, indicating he remembered. Wasn't it the three words 'I don't know'? Replying 'I don't know' whatever the question, wasn't that simple?
