Chapter 80: Tang San Plans to Resurrect Xiao Wu's Mother and Stop Bibi Dong from Bullying Xiao Wu
Zhu Zhuqing's dark eyes fixed on the spot where Tang San and Hu Liena had sped by on the Kawasaki H2R. "A green thing…" she murmured, her sharp feline vision catching a fleeting shadow, unlike the others who saw nothing. Xiao Wu, confused, bit her lip. "A big green rat? Why didn't you catch it, Catgirl? Don't cats chase rats?"
Zhu Zhuqing glared, thinking, "At that speed, how could I? You don't eat Blue Silver Grass either, rabbit." She kept silent, maintaining her cool demeanor.
Flender, feigning calm, said, "Just a gust of wind. Keep moving." Inwardly, he connected the blur to the Soto City incident. "Tang San…" he mused, leading the group through the south gate.
There, Tang San leaned against his H2R, sipping a Red Bull from the Blue Star Mall, with a dazed Hu Liena panting beside him, recovering from her first ride. "She'll get used to it," Tang San thought, envisioning future purchases—a Mercedes-Benz G-Class, Bugatti Veyron, or even a Boeing jet—to impress Ning Rongrong, Bibi Dong, and Qian Renxue.
Xiao Wu spotted him. "Xiao San, how'd you get here so fast?" She jumped on him, thrilled.
"I caught up halfway," Tang San grinned, patting the H2R. "You saw me pass, just didn't recognize it. Too fast to wave."
"A big rat?" Xiao Wu exclaimed, grabbing his arm.
Tang San chuckled, glancing at the H2R's black-and-green carbon fiber body. "That's it."
Flender approached, eyeing the bike. "What is this thing? How's it so fast?"
"A soul guide," Tang San said casually. "Uses special fuel. Common in my hometown."
Xiao Wu frowned. "Holy Soul Village? I never saw these there." The others, unfamiliar with his hometown, didn't press.
Flender admired the H2R's light carbon fiber. "Your hometown rivals Iron City's forging. Fast, but not sturdy." Tang San wasn't worried—Blue Star Mall offered reinforced vehicles like a military-grade Mercedes-Benz G-Class, capable of withstanding a Spirit King's attack, perfect for charging through armies.
"Blue Star tech will outshine Tang Sect weapons," Tang San thought, dreaming of a Tsar hydrogen bomb to dwarf the Buddha's Wrath Tang Lotus. "External tools won't hinder my cultivation."
"As a support-type, a fast soul guide for escape is enough," he told Flender.
"It's impressive," Flender admitted, coveting it but knowing it was useless without Tang San's fuel and skill.
"Let's go," Flender said. "Join the class if you want." Xiao Wu climbed onto the H2R, tugging Tang San. "Don't put it away. Little Fox and Rongrong rode it—I want to! Keep up with them, but don't go fast."
Tang San smiled, touching her face, and drove at 40 mph, matching the group. Xiao Wu cheered, "This is awesome! No walking!" Hu Liena, trailing, snorted at her joy. Ma Hongjun and Niu Dagang clamored for a ride, but Tang San's Tail Swing sent them back, unwilling to let Niu Dagang's stench ruin his bike.
Zhu Zhuqing's gaze lingered, wanting a ride but too shy to ask. Tang San noted her interest, planning to take her in a G-Class or Veyron later.
At the bustling Great Soul Arena, passersby mistook the H2R for a spirit beast, its headlights like glowing eyes. Tang San, bored, handed Xiao Wu a Blue Star lollipop. "It's hard," she said, biting it.
"Don't bite—it melts," he demonstrated, amused as she savored it. "So sweet, San Ge!"
Flender, embarrassed by their attention, led them to a teahouse to explain the arena's rules. Tang San and Hu Liena, familiar with soul fighting, tuned out. Inside the arena, a 200-meter-tall structure like a Blue Star gymnasium, Tang San, Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and Niu Dagang registered.
Spirit power tests revealed: Tang San (Level 27, hiding his true strength), Zhu Zhuqing (Level 27), Xiao Wu (Level 29), and Niu Dagang (Level 25). Tang San nudged Hu Liena. "Register, Senior Sister. While we wait for the teacher, train with them."
Hu Liena, knowing they awaited Yu Xiaogang to plot against him, agreed. Her registration shocked everyone—Level 45. "She's stronger than Dai Lao Da!" Ma Hongjun gasped. Flender adjusted his glasses, stunned.
"I'm older," Hu Liena said casually, taking her badge and entering a sub-arena. The others followed, signing up for one-on-one fights.
In the lounge, Xiao Wu fretted. "Third Brother, as a support-type, don't push yourself if your skills fail."
"I'll be fine," Tang San reassured her.
Xiao Wu added, "There's a two-on-two duel. Let's sign up! We beat Dai Mubai before—Three-Five Combination, right?"
Tang San agreed, nostalgic for their title. Though aligned with Spirit Hall, he'd protect Xiao Wu by resolving her feud with Bibi Dong. His plan: resurrect Xiao Wu's mother, whose spirit lingered in Bibi Dong's Soul Devouring Spider Emperor. It required Bibi Dong's cooperation—stopping her from bullying Xiao Wu and addressing her past trauma, a daunting task.
As they prepared, Tang San's H2R, Infinite Steal, and Rasengan bolstered his confidence. Hu Liena's strength, Ning Rongrong's loyalty, and Zhu Zhuqing's brewing rebellion fueled the Shura Field. With Yu Xiaogang's arrival and Bibi Dong's looming presence, Tang San's schemes were set to explode.
