30: Tang Hao is not dead? The soul ring shocked everyone
"The test will begin after one stick of incense burns."
"As long as the five of you can jointly resist me for the duration of one stick of incense, or if even one person can hold on, you will succeed."
"Teacher Zhao… this isn't good." Dai Mubai said, conflicted.
"So much nonsense. The Dean isn't here, so I'm in charge." After speaking, Zhao Wuji threw out a stick of incense and went back to sleep.
Dai Mubai came before the five people.
"I can't help you now. Originally, I was supposed to test you, but I didn't expect Teacher Zhao to do it personally."
"He's not also a Spirit Emperor like the one outside, is he?"
Dai Mubai shook his head: "Teacher Zhao is a Spirit Saint!"
"A Spirit Saint!!" Everyone except Xiao Ze was startled.
"Doesn't this mean he doesn't want us to pass? How can we, all Spirit Grandmasters, possibly defeat a Spirit Saint?" Ning Rongrong complained.
Zhu Zhuqing's face was also very grim. How could this broken academy be like this?
"Teacher Zhao's Spirit is the Vigorous Vajra Bear. His defense is terrifying, and his attack power is not weak."
"So it's him, the Immovable King Zhao Wuji." Ning Rongrong suddenly realized.
"You'll have to rely on yourselves. Teacher Zhao won't use his full power, so it's up to you."
Dai Mubai sighed helplessly, then glanced at Zhu Zhuqing again.
This woman looks so familiar.
Zhu Zhuqing, however, did not want to look at Dai Mubai. The scene from yesterday was deeply etched in her mind.
"My name is Tang San, my Spirit is Blue Silver Grass, a Level 29 control system Spirit Master."
"Blue Silver Grass can also be cultivated?" Ning Rongrong was a bit surprised.
"There are no useless Spirits, only useless Spirit Masters."
Hearing this, Ning Rongrong chuckled: "Why does that sound like something Yu Xiaogang, that so-called Grandmaster, would say? It seems to be in one of his books, something about 'Ten Great Theories'."
"Is it possible that he is Yu Xiaogang's student?" Xiao Ze interjected.
Now Ning Rongrong laughed even harder: "So that's it."
Tang San's face, however, darkened. How could just anyone blacken his teacher's name? Yu Xiaogang might be trash, but he also represented his own reputation.
Damn it!
"My teacher is the Grandmaster, not just anyone."
"Yes, yes, a teacher with the same spirit power as you. His books were all thrown out by our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."
Tang San's face grew even gloomier. Even the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School threw out his teacher's books. It seemed his teacher really was trash.
As one of the Upper Three Sects, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's insight was definitely extraordinary. It seemed Yu Xiaogang… really was a good-for-nothing?
"Alright, stop talking. There's not much time left." Xiao Wu broke the awkward silence.
She didn't have a good opinion of Yu Xiaogang either.
If he hadn't incited her third brother to challenge Xiao Ze, she wouldn't have been injured.
"My name is Xiao Wu, the Wu from dancing. My Spirit is Soft Bones Rabbit, a Level 29 attack system Spirit Master."
"Xiao Ze, my Spirit is Black Soil, a Level 28 Summoning System Soul Master."
"Summoning System?!" Ning Rongrong exclaimed.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Wu was confused.
"You don't understand. Summoning System Soul Masters are very rare, even rarer than food system Soul Masters. From the moment these Soul Masters acquire their first spirit ring, their strength can rank among the top three of all Spirit Master types, and they've never fallen out of it."
Ning Rongrong paused, then continued seriously: "They can even fight across realms. Except perhaps when they reach Titled Douluo, where they might be weaker, as the leap in combat power from Spirit Douluo to Titled Douluo is very large."
"But that's not important, as how many people can cultivate to Titled Douluo? In short, Summoning System Soul Masters are extremely powerful."
"I never expected to meet a Summoning System Soul Master in this broken academy." Ning Rongrong's words even made Zhao Wuji open his eyes.
He also understood the strength of the Summoning System.
This time, whether they succeeded in the challenge or not, Shrek Academy would take them.
"Ning Rongrong, my Spirit is Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, a Level 26 support system Spirit Master."
"Zhu Zhuqing, my Spirit is Hell Civet, a Level 27 agility-attack system Spirit Master."
"Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda? You're a direct descendant of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School?" Tang San was a bit surprised.
"Nonsense." Ning Rongrong had no good tone for Tang San.
The feeling he gave her was very insidious, especially dangerous.
Tang San snorted coldly and said nothing more.
Xiao Ze racked his brain but couldn't figure out why Ning Rongrong and Tang San's relationship had suddenly become like this.
Then it would be even easier for him to act.
Shrek Academy definitely couldn't be stayed in for long; it was a waste of his time.
If he took Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong away, it would definitely weaken Tang San's strength. Perhaps there was also a subtle element of destiny at play.
"I can support you, giving you 30% strength and speed."
"Ning Rongrong will support us, Tang San will control Zhao Wuji. Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing will harass Zhao Wuji from both sides. My sprites will help you.
Remember, we only need to last for the duration of one stick of incense."
Xiao Ze began to assign tasks. It was all Tang San's fault for making him have to speak.
"Xiao Ze, the soul of this person beside you doesn't seem to be from this World either."
"Hmm."
"You're not surprised?" The God of Agriculture was a bit surprised.
"Not surprised. His father didn't care for him, and he had to take care of himself and his father from two or three years old. Later, he cultivated a technique by himself. How could he be a normal person?"
"So that's it. But isn't that his father not far away?"
As soon as this was said, Xiao Ze was startled, and the calm expression on his face almost faltered.
"God of Agriculture, don't scare me. His father was a Titled Douluo; he should be dead."
"Hmm… you're right, he is dead, but he has divine force on him. The divine force has transformed him into a puppet, without a soul."
Xiao Ze's pupils contracted. Holy crap!!
Asura God, you're really something!!
He actually transformed the deceased Tang Hao into a puppet to protect Tang San.
Fortunately, the God of Agriculture reminded him, otherwise, if Xiao Ze went to deal with Tang San later, he would have been smashed to death by Tang Hao's hammer.
"It seems this Tang San was brought to this World by a deity. You need to be careful. Since a god can do this, it means they won't abide by any rules."
Xiao Ze gave the God of Agriculture a thumbs up in his heart. You're really good at judging people.
"Have you finished discussing?" Zhao Wuji slowly got up.
"Teacher Zhao, we can start." Dai Mubai retreated.
"Good, then prepare."
Suddenly, Ning Rongrong gracefully spun around, and brilliant seven-colored light enveloped her body.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda appeared in her hands.
Two yellow spirit rings rose from beneath her feet.
"Seven Treasures turn out with glazed tile, first is strength, second is speed!"
Two rays of light landed on Tang San and the others, and immediately a surge of power flowed through their limbs and bones, making them feel full of strength.
"Sui Hua, Xi Mang!"
Xiao Ze's right hand showed the Black Soil, and two spirit rings, one yellow and one purple, lit up. Two Agricultural Sprites appeared before him.
"A thousand-year second ring!!" Ning Rongrong exclaimed, almost dropping the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda in her hand.
"What?!"
Everyone forgot about the battle and looked at Xiao Ze's second spirit ring in unison.
Zhao Wuji even ran over.
