Chapter 199: Tang San vs Huo Wu
After the first day of the tournament, Ning Bei led the group out of the venue.
As they passed by the Shrek Academy's section of the stands, Ning Bei felt the malicious gaze from Liu Erlong. He merely curled the corner of his lips into a slight smile, ignoring her and not even glancing at her as he led his team directly into the passage.
Ning Bei's indifferent attitude drove the Mother Tyrannosaurus almost mad. She had already been ignored twice today. Earlier, when they first entered, Liu Erlong had also glared fiercely at Bibi Dong on the high platform, but the latter had similarly ignored her, as if she didn't exist.
Being ignored was the greatest humiliation. Mother Tyrannosaurus trembled with rage and was about to approach Ning Bei to argue when Yu Xiaogang tightly grabbed her wrist and shook his head at her. This calmed her down and stopped her from making another move.
"Ning Bei, did you see how I dominated? One kick, one little kid down!"
On the way back, the little rabbit jumped and hopped around Ning Bei, bragging about her performance.
Ning Bei smiled and glanced at her but didn't pour cold water on her. He patted the little rabbit's head.
"Very impressive, their faces are full of high heel marks!"
Feeling the gentle pat on her head, the little rabbit slightly restrained her playful demeanor, but the happiness on her face couldn't be hidden.
"There won't be any strong opponents these next few days. Just be careful when we face Shenfeng Academy in three days."
Long Nianbing flipped through the upcoming match schedule and calmly informed her teammates.
Ning Rongrong curled her lips.
"Let's hope they don't surrender again."
The little rabbit immediately became upset when she heard that. It was Shenfeng Academy that led the way with their forfeiture in the pre-qualifying rounds, making the other teams follow suit. Now, were they going to do the same again?
"Are they really going to forfeit in the promotion match?"
Ning Rongrong shot her a look, seemingly saying, "Why are you so surprised?"
"How fresh, right? The promotion match doesn't eliminate teams, and knowing them, it's normal for them to forfeit again to preserve their strength!"
To vent her frustration, the little rabbit had decided to teach Shenfeng Academy a lesson when they met in the promotion match. But now, learning that their plan might be ruined, her rabbit ears drooped in disappointment.
"It's okay, with the strength of their academy, making it to the finals is almost a done deal. There will still be a chance."
Seeing her big sister's dejected mood, Da Wei hurriedly comforted her.
Sure enough, hearing this, the little rabbit immediately regained her spirits.
"Really? That's great! When the time comes, Xiao Wu will definitely kick their butts."
The following matches went as expected, with Xiao Wu easily completing a one-versus-seven against two small academy teams.
Her title of "Soft Bone Charm Rabbit" resonated throughout Wuhun City, becoming the brightest star of the first half of the promotion tournament, perfectly satisfying the little rabbit's vanity.
Every time after winning, she would proudly come to Ning Bei, and he didn't hesitate to praise her. For several days, the little rabbit walked around with her tail held high.
Dugu Yan had been watching Xiao Wu's performance, and as a woman, she knew exactly what Xiao Wu was thinking.
Even so, she didn't say much. Dugu Yan didn't believe that Ning Bei was someone she could keep to herself.
But even though she thought this way, the jealous part of her still launched a few of her self-created soul skills at Ning Bei, and the soft flesh around his waist had been swollen for days. Fortunately, he had the ability to apply ice at any time.
The fourth day of the tournament arrived, and as expected, Shenfeng Academy forfeited.
"Refund!" The shout echoed through the stands once more. Even though the little rabbit had already anticipated Shenfeng Academy might forfeit, she was still so angry she stomped her feet. How could she go to Ning Bei now to take credit for her victories?
Shenfeng Academy's team members were confused, wondering why the little rabbit was glaring at them. In their minds, the Royal Dou Academy's second team should be happy about winning without a fight.
That afternoon, Shrek Academy faced off against the Blaze Fire Academy.
When the two teams met in the preliminaries, Tang San had been thoroughly taught a lesson by Huo Wu, a Soul King from Blaze Fire Academy, because they had lost the Fire Immunity ability granted by the Fierce Fire Apricot Jiao Shou.
Countless Blue Silver Grasses turned into the best fuel for Blaze Fire Academy, and the fire blazed on the arena. After the victory, Huo Wu gave Tang San a disdainful smile, and the Tang God King almost sentenced her to death right then and there.
This time in the promotion tournament, the process of the match didn't change much, only switching from team battles to individual wheel wars.
Aside from Dai Mubai taking the lead and defeating two Blaze Fire Academy members, Huo Wu, as a level 43 Battle Soul King, immediately completed a one-versus-six.
Tai Long, Jing Ling, Huang Yuan, and even a substitute soul master pulled from the Blue Tyrant Academy were no match for her.
Ma Hongjun, still a Soul Master, didn't stir up any waves.
Finally, Huo Wu crossed her arms, sneered, and said to Tang San:
"You should just go down, I don't want to roast any more Blue Silver Grass."
Tang San's face turned cold. This woman definitely deserved to die. She had humiliated him so many times that she had crossed the line.
If not for the fact that his hidden weapons couldn't be used, would she have had a chance to show off here?
Determined, he thought to himself that even if it meant exposing the Clear Sky Hammer, he would make sure to hammer this woman's head, especially aiming at that annoying mouth of hers.
"It's time to see who's stronger."
As the referee's signal started, Tang San's eyes flashed with a hint of purple, and his body disappeared like the wind.
Blue Silver Grass had no way of dealing with a fire-type soul master. After suffering once, Tang San didn't even bother to release his Wuhun this time. Instead, like a ghost, he closed the distance to Huo Wu.
Huo Wu was startled. This approach was completely different from the preliminary match.
Before Huo Wu could react, Tang San was already behind her. He activated his soul bone skill and locked onto her.
"Golden Snake Binding!"
The hundred-year-old crafty snake soul bone skill activated, and Tang San's right arm, like it had lost its bones, wrapped around Huo Wu's body, tightly locking her in place and gripping her neck.
Tang San's arm, which was wrapped around her, showcased Huo Wu's beautiful figure to the fullest.
Male spectators in the stands were having a feast for their eyes, whistling loudly, while female spectators blushed and scolded him for being a rogue.
Within the stands, Feng Xiaotian from Shenfeng Academy and Huo Wushuang below the arena began to glare with increasingly dangerous eyes.
"Admit defeat, I don't want to hurt you."
Huo Wu, held tightly by Tang San, felt ashamed. But then, her anger flared up, gritting her teeth and cursing:
"You damn rogue, you're looking for death, Third Soul Skill, Fire Ring Resistance!"
The third purple soul ring above her glowed, and fire rings began to spread from Huo Wu's body.
Tang San's eyes flickered with surprise, and he hurriedly released his extended arm, using Ghost Shadow to retreat several dozen meters.
The fire rings brushed past his hair, narrowly missing him.
However, having been taken advantage of, Huo Wu wasn't about to back down. She wasn't going to just let him off for using underhanded methods and coming at her with such shamelessness.
