Chapter 145: Qian Renchuan's Rage—The Shrek Six Suffer
Victory was assured!
When Tang San took down Shui Bing'er with a single hammer strike, Tang Hao couldn't help but smile. Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Qian Xunji, who sipped tea calmly, his gaze narrowing slightly.
Qian Xunji… Just wait. The humiliation you brought to me and the Clear Sky Clan—my son will return it tenfold one day.
The thought flashed by. Tang Hao quickly cupped his hands toward Qian Xunji. "Your Holiness, I deeply apologize. My son didn't know how to control his strength and ended up injuring that young lady so severely."
"No matter. It's a soul duel. If your skills fall short, death is a possibility. What surprises me more is that little fellow's fortune—to have obtained an external soul bone."
Tang Hao's unease grew at the smirk tugging at Qian Xunji's lips. "Your Holiness… you wouldn't hold a grudge against a child, would you?"
"You think I'm like one of your Clear Sky Clan dogs?"
Qian Xunji's eyes swept toward Tang Hao. He immediately bowed his head, but inside, his fury boiled—Qian Xunji had just insulted the Clear Sky Clan.
"He won! Little San won!"
Flender, Zhao Wuji, and Yu Xiaogang were ecstatic.
Qin Ming nodded with a smile. This junior of his was destined to break records and become Shrek's greatest graduate.
"He's from the Clear Sky Clan…"
Yu Tianheng looked at Tang San, a deep sense of humiliation washing over him. Tang San hadn't even used the Clear Sky Hammer in their match—he hadn't even forced him to go all out.
The rest of the Heaven Dou team felt less shame knowing Tang San was from the undefeated myth that was the Clear Sky Clan. Losing to him didn't feel as disgraceful.
Back on the arena stage.
Qian Renchuan gently placed Shui Bing'er down and slowly stood. His crimson eyes locked onto the Shrek Seven. Three purple and one black soul ring floated at his feet.
Three Blue Silver Grass vines extended outward—two wrapped around Yu Hairou and Gu Qingbo, tossing them from the stage. The third gently lifted Shui Bing'er and laid her outside the ring.
"What are you doing?!"
Yu Hairou and Gu Qingbo shouted after regaining their senses, staring back at Qian Renchuan. But he had already vanished.
Tang San's pupils shrank. His Purple Demon Eye told him exactly what it was—Ghost Shadow Perplexing Tracks! A core Tang Sect technique!
"AH!"
A scream reached Tang San. He whipped around. Using his Purple Demon Eye, he caught a glimpse of Qian Renchuan. Blood vessels burst in his eyes, and his heart stopped for a moment.
Qian Renchuan, using Ghost Shadow Perplexing Tracks, moved like a phantom. In an instant, he appeared beside Xiao Wu. Using Crane Control Dragon Capture, he snatched the long scorpion braid from the back of her head.
Without stopping, he charged toward Oscar and Ning Rongrong. His speed was two or three times that of Tang San earlier.
"AHHH!"
Xiao Wu, unconscious, screamed in pain as her hair was yanked violently. Even unconscious, the pain was unbearable.
"XIAO WU!!"
Tang San roared, "Xiao Ao! Rongrong—dodge!"
Qian Renchuan was moving faster than Tang San's earlier burst. Even Tang San needed his Purple Demon Eye to track him. The other five Shrek members, not to mention Tianshui and Heaven Dou teams, could only see afterimages.
In soul combat, you take out the support first.
In a single breath, Qian Renchuan reached Oscar and Ning Rongrong. Muscles bulged. Still holding Xiao Wu by her braid, he swung her like a club.
The sound of her body slicing through the air was like a cracking whip.
Oscar and Ning Rongrong saw only a black blur—then a heavy object slammed into their faces. Both were flung like cannonballs.
"AHHH—!" ×3
Three screams echoed. Oscar and Ning Rongrong smashed into the arena wall.
THUD THUD!!
Oscar's head swelled on both sides—one from being hit by Xiao Wu's legs, the other from crashing into the wall. His blood churned violently; he vomited blood and collapsed.
Ning Rongrong was hit even harder. Her delicate face was struck directly by Xiao Wu's body. Her nose shattered. She flew backward, her skull smashing into the wall. A huge lump swelled, blood gushing from her nose and mouth. For a moment, she thought her brain might shut down.
After slamming Oscar and Ning Rongrong, Qian Renchuan let go of Xiao Wu's braid. She flew like trash, crashing into the audience.
THUD!
Tang San stared at the scene, veins bulging in his neck. He opened his mouth to scream—but the fury rendered him voiceless.
After eliminating Oscar, Ning Rongrong, and Xiao Wu, Qian Renchuan paused just a moment—to pick his next target.
Leg muscles tensed. In another breath, he appeared before Ma Hongjun.
He stood a full head taller than Fatty. His face still perpendicular to the ground, his blood-red eyes looked down with a gaze that screamed: trash.
Since his reincarnation, arrogant, wild Ma Hongjun had never felt such terror. His chubby body trembled uncontrollably.
Time seemed to slow. Qian Renchuan's icy fist rose—slowly, deliberately—and smashed into Fatty's face.
BOOM!!
Half of Fatty's teeth flew from his mouth. He bounced across the arena multiple times, landing in the audience beside Xiao Wu.
"FATTY!!"
Flender shot to his feet, eyes wide. He was ready to charge onto the stage.
"Flender, what are you doing?!"
Yu Xiaogang grabbed his shoulder, shouting.
"Xiao Gang! That's not a duel—that bastard's trying to kill them!!"
While they argued, Qian Renchuan charged Dai Mubai like a wild tiger.
Startled, Dai Mubai had no soul power left to use White Tiger Vajra Transformation. His first soul ring lit up—White Tiger Barrier formed a shield in front of him.
Qian Renchuan didn't hesitate. His glowing white fist slammed into the shield. It shattered like glass. His sleeve burst from the force.
The fist broke through and hit Dai Mubai's handsome face. His features twisted grotesquely. His nose shattered. Four teeth dislodged and lodged in his throat.
Under the light of the shield, Dai Mubai flew like a white cannonball. He smashed into the arena wall—leaving two cracks.
"MUBAI!!"
Zhu Zhuqing screamed. Her eyes flashed with deadly intent. Exhausted as she was, she threw herself at Qian Renchuan.
Without even looking at her, Qian Renchuan kicked hard—squarely hitting her chest.
Her chest collapsed inward. She spat a mouthful of blood and flew across the arena—opposite direction of Dai Mubai.
In less than thirty seconds—Shrek Six, down.
