"Dean, Rongrong said she had something to take care of and asked me to tell you all to go back first; she'll be back a little later."
Oscar quickly explained.
Flender nodded, "In that case, Xiao San, I'll take you back first to help Xiao Wu heal. You all can return to the academy yourselves."
"No problem, Dean," everyone responded.
Flender grabbed Tang San, and his figure instantly vanished from the spot.
Seeing this, Zhu Zhuqing turned and ran directly in another direction. She naturally didn't want to walk with those boys.
"It's rare for us three brothers to be out alone. Should we go have some fun before heading back?" Ma Hongjun's shifty little eyes immediately darted around.
"Do you think the daily training isn't tiring enough?" Oscar rolled his eyes at Ma Hongjun.
Dai Mubai gave a wicked smile and said, "What? Is your evil fire burning again?"
Ma Hongjun chuckled, "No, not really. But isn't this situation truly rare today? Since school started, us three musketeers haven't had a good time out together in a long while."
Dai Mubai shook his head and said, "Forget it, let's just go back."
"What? Boss Dai, are you still thinking about Zhuqing?" Ma Hongjun looked in the direction Zhu Zhuqing had left, clicked his tongue, and said, "Zhu Zhuqing is so hostile towards you, yet Boss you're still so concerned about her. This is the first time I've seen such a situation. It looks like Boss Dai, you're serious this time?"
Dai Mubai rolled his eyes and cursed, "Mind your own business, let's go!"
Just after the three had walked for a bit, Ma Hongjun's shifty eyes seemed to spot something, and a gossipy gleam instantly flashed in them. He grabbed Oscar and Dai Mubai.
Dai Mubai impatiently said, "What is it now, Fatty?"
"Boss, Little Ao, especially Little Ao, you absolutely must not mess up."
Oscar also said with some impatience, "If you have something to say, say it! If you have fart, release it!"
Ma Hongjun chuckled and pointed to the front left, "Look over there. That should be Ning Rongrong, right? There's also a pretty boy next to her. They seem quite familiar. Could they be secretly out on a date with her sweetheart?"
Upon hearing this, Dai Mubai and Oscar were greatly shocked, especially Oscar, whose eyes showed even more panic. He had felt something was off earlier, and now hearing Ma Hongjun say this, he immediately looked in the direction Ma Hongjun pointed.
On one side of the crowd, Ning Rongrong was chatting animatedly with a handsome man, her expression alternating between surprise and annoyance. To them, it looked like they were flirting.
Seeing this scene, Oscar's body swayed, and his face couldn't help but turn pale.
Dai Mubai naturally noticed Oscar's abnormality, a wicked glint flashed in his eyes, he raised his right hand and clenched it, then looked at Ma Hongjun, "Fatty, someone dares to steal our brother's woman, are we just going to stand here and watch?"
Even if Ma Hongjun was slow to react, he immediately understood. He chuckled, "Shouldn't we help our brother vent his anger?"
Oscar said worriedly, "Maybe it's just Rongrong's friend? Let's go ask about the situation first?"
"Then let's go over and ask. We'll find out then," Dai Mubai's fists clapped together, making a sound of cracking bones.
"Rongrong," as the three approached, Oscar couldn't help but call out Ning Rongrong's name.
"Little Ao?" Ning Rongrong heard Oscar's familiar voice behind her. She looked at Shi Quan in front of her, furrowed her brows slightly, and turned to look behind her. Only then did she notice that besides Oscar, Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun had also arrived.
Dai Mubai stepped forward and sized up Shi Quan, then asked, "Rongrong, who is this new friend?"
"Rongrong, since your friends are here, I'll head back to the hotel first," Shi Quan waved his hand.
"Wait a moment!"
Dai Mubai and Ning Rongrong said almost simultaneously.
Upon hearing this, a trace of anger flashed in Ning Rongrong's eyes. She looked at Dai Mubai, "Dai Mubai, what do you want to do?"
"What do I want to do?" A wicked glint flashed in Dai Mubai's eyes. He stared intently at Shi Quan's eyes, thoroughly sizing him up, then said coldly, "Your voice sounds a bit familiar."
Ma Hongjun also chimed in, "That's right, it does sound a bit familiar."
Oscar's pupils constricted. He had suspected that Ning Rongrong might know 'Defeat Seeker' before, but he couldn't be sure. However, after hearing Shi Quan's voice, he almost immediately confirmed that the young man in front of him was 'Defeat Seeker,' who had severely injured Xiao Wu on the stage earlier.
Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun were slower to react, but they quickly caught on. After all, this had just happened. "You are Defeat Seeker?"
Shi Quan looked at Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun, who were slowly encircling him, with a half-smile. "So what if I am? So what if I'm not?"
"You mean you admit it?" A cold glint flashed in Dai Mubai's eyes. "Then I'm going to avenge Xiao Wu!"
A low tiger roar came. With one stride, in an instant, his right fist suddenly rose. Accompanied by a forward charge, Dai Mubai had already arrived in front of Shi Quan, punching directly at Shi Quan's chest.
A cold light flashed in Shi Quan's eyes. He took a step with his right foot and likewise threw a punch, but as he swung, a faint layer of white silver light appeared on Shi Quan's hand.
A dull thud sounded.
Dai Mubai's figure uncontrollably retreated seven or eight steps before he managed to stabilize himself.
Dai Mubai's pupils constricted, and his face was somewhat flushed. While he had initiated the attack, he was at a disadvantage. Not only was his strength inferior to the opponent's, but when their right hands collided, Shi Quan's fist gave him the illusion of being cast from bronze and iron. This feeling was just like Tang San's hand back then.
However, Tang San could still be shaken due to the difference in strength, while Shi Quan gave him the feeling of an unshakeable towering mountain.
The Indestructible Divine Skill Realm is divided into multiple stages: the first stage is Copper Body, the second stage is Iron Body. Currently, Shi Quan's Indestructible Divine Skill is in the third stage, Silver Body.
After Shi Quan used the Tenfold Perfect Great Restoration Pill, his Indestructible Divine Skill reached the second stage, Iron Body. Afterwards, due to continuously absorbing the Dragon Spine external Spirit Bone and the Holy Dragon Eight Spears, his Indestructible Divine Skill also reached the third stage, Silver Body.
Dai Mubai's spirit power is currently at Rank 38. During the days of touring soul fights, Shi Quan's Cultivation also didn't fall behind, and his spirit power also Breakthrough to Rank 38 not long ago.
At the same spirit power Rank, even if Shi Quan did not have a strength-type Martial Spirit, Dai Mubai's strength could absolutely not shake Shi Quan.
"Dai Mubai, what are you doing? He's my friend!" Ning Rongrong said angrily.
A wicked glint flashed in Dai Mubai's eyes, and he said coldly, "Ning Rongrong, aren't you clear about what I'm doing? He injured Xiao Wu so badly on the arena. What's wrong with us avenging Xiao Wu? What if he's your friend? Are Xiao San and Xiao Wu not your companions then? If you're not convinced, go explain to Xiao San, and see if he'll make a move!"
Dai Mubai snorted coldly, and his eyes on Shi Quan became more serious. He looked at Ma Hongjun beside him and said, "Fatty, let's attack together. This kid is a tough nut to crack. Little Ao, if you don't want to make Ning Rongrong difficult, then pull her away. We'll handle our own affairs!"
"No problem," Ma Hongjun was just complaining about having no fun, and now fun was delivered right to his doorstep?
"Don't hold back," Dai Mubai whispered, and Ma Hongjun immediately understood.
"White Tiger, possess!"
"Phoenix, possess!"
Intense white light and scorching red light erupted from Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun's bodies.
Their bodies also began to undergo drastic changes. Two yellow and one purple, three spirit rings, and two yellow, two spirit rings, quietly rose beneath them. As the spirit rings circulated, surging spirit power formed a wave-like pressure that rushed towards Shi Quan.
Seeing this, a hint of playfulness flashed in Shi Quan's eyes. With a casual wave, the spirit power pressure released by the two dissipated. A faint blue light came from his right hand, and Blue Silver King vines coiled upwards and scattered on the ground.
One yellow, two purple, three spirit rings emerged from beneath him.
"Two thousand-year spirit rings, how is this possible?!" Dai Mubai and the others were all stunned when they saw the unusual spirit ring configuration beneath Shi Quan. Especially Dai Mubai, whose wicked eyes almost converged when he saw this scene.
Ning Rongrong's eyes were also full of mockery. How could she not know Shi Quan's strength? Her anger was only because Dai Mubai attacked Shi Quan, and she wasn't worried that Dai Mubai would hurt Shi Quan, because from beginning to end, in her eyes, Shi Quan would never lose to Dai Mubai, even with Ma Hongjun cooperating.
"He's actually this strong?" Dai Mubai stared intently at Shi Quan, feeling a little fortunate in his heart.
Shi Quan looked a bit younger than him, but having the precedent of losing to Tang San, he knew that sometimes, spirit power didn't represent everything, especially for someone like Shi Quan who could defeat Xiao Wu with just a longsword. So, he immediately called on Ma Hongjun to attack together.
Fortunately, he called on Ma Hongjun. Otherwise, judging by Shi Quan's strength shown on the arena, the power of their recent collision, and Shi Quan's Martial Spirit, he probably wouldn't be Shi Quan's opponent.
But now it was different. With Ma Hongjun there, Dai Mubai felt confident again, because Shi Quan's Martial Spirit was a plant, and plant-type Martial Spirits all had a common weakness: fear of fire! And Ma Hongjun's Martial Spirit was fire-attributed, and his evil fire was even stronger than ordinary flames. As long as Ma Hongjun's flames were present, Shi Quan's plant Martial Spirit wouldn't be able to function. With Shi Quan alone, wouldn't he be at their mercy? No matter how sharp his longsword was, it couldn't pierce his White Tiger's fur.
With this thought in mind.
Dai Mubai didn't hesitate at all, letting out a low roar: "Fatty!"
Fatty chuckled wickedly, immediately understood, and instantly activated his second spirit ring skill, Phoenix Fire Wire.
Intense purple flames suddenly rose, and the scorching temperature instantly spread through the air. This was just the beginning. Immediately after, the first spirit ring beneath Ma Hongjun also lit up, and a Phoenix Fire Wire as thick as an arm was directly sprayed towards Shi Quan.
