"Continue," Yun Ming said, dispelling the doubt in his heart. The Sky Piercing God Spear in his hand once again radiated a dazzling light. "Let me see your strength again."
Fang Yang gripped the Golden Dragon Spear tightly, the Dragon patterns flowing on the spear seemed to come alive, exuding waves of Dragon might.
He took a deep breath, his spirit power surging within his body, and six spirit rings simultaneously lit up with dazzling light.
"Pavilion Master, please enlighten me!"
Fang Yang's figure flashed, the Golden Dragon Spear, entwined with black異火, transformed into a black-gold stream of light, directly piercing towards Yun Ming.
This spear was as fast as lightning, and the space rippled wherever the spear tip passed.
Yun Ming dared not be careless in the slightest. The vast spirit power in his body surged, and the Sky Piercing God Spear in his hand radiated a dazzling golden light, directly meeting Fang Yang's attack.
Then, he twirled the Sky Piercing God Spear in his hand, its momentum like a Dragon, aiming straight for Fang Yang's chest.
This spear seemed simple, yet it contained the true essence of the Dao of the spear, returning to its original simplicity.
Fang Yang remained calm. Black flames entwined the Golden Dragon Spear, and with a flick of his wrist, he blocked with the shaft of the spear.
With a loud clang, Fang Yang was forced back several steps, his tiger's mouth slightly numb, but the Battle Intent in his eyes grew even stronger.
"Again!"
Their figures constantly intertwined, spear shadows overlapping. The lights of the Golden Dragon Spear and the Sky Piercing God Spear interwove and collided on Sea God Island, erupting in brilliant sparks.
Each clash caused the space to tremble slightly, with flames and spear gleams scattering in all directions.
If not for the barrier Yun Ming had set up in advance, the entire Sea God Island would likely have felt the terrifying aftermath of this duel.
Ya Li and Na'er, watching from outside the barrier, stared intently at this astonishing duel.
Ya Li's eyes were filled with awe: "This child, Fang Yang, can actually fight against Brother Ming to such an extent."
One must know that Fang Yang was only a six-ring Spirit Emperor, while Yun Ming was a 99th-level ultimate quasi-Heavenly God!
Na'er pursed her lips, looking at Fang Yang's figure in the arena.
In the arena, the battle had entered a white-hot stage.
Fine beads of sweat appeared on Fang Yang's forehead, but his gaze remained firm.
He knew that fighting against a powerhouse like Yun Ming was a rare Opportunity in itself.
Each clash deepened his understanding of the Dao of the spear.
The admiration in Yun Ming's eyes grew increasingly strong. He suddenly put away his spear and stood, saying loudly, "Alright, that's enough."
Hearing this, Fang Yang stopped his offensive, panting slightly as he looked at Yun Ming.
"I have understood your strength."
Yun Ming put away the Sky Piercing God Spear, a satisfied smile on his face, "Na'er was right, you truly are a Genius."
Fang Yang put away the Golden Dragon Spear and respectfully bowed, "Thank you, Pavilion Master, for your guidance."
Yun Ming nodded slightly, his voice clearly announcing, "The entrance examination ends here. Fang Yang, congratulations, from this moment on, you are a member of Shrek Academy."
As the barrier slowly dissipated, and Na'er quickly walked over.
"Brother!"
Na'er happily threw herself into Fang Yang's arms.
Fang Yang gently ruffled her purple hair, a doting smile in his eyes: "Na'er."
"Let's go, we're going back," Ya Li said with a gentle smile.
…
On the Golden Ancient Tree, inside the Sea God Pavilion!
"Brother Ming, give me the Sky Piercing God Spear," Ya Li said softly, extending her fair hand.
Hearing this, Yun Ming unhesitatingly handed the Sky Piercing God Spear to Ya Li.
When Ya Li's gaze fell on the scorched mark on the spear shaft, her brows furrowed slightly.
A green light appeared in his hand, and rich life force was injected into the scorched mark left by the flames on the Sky Piercing God Spear.
However, the mark left by the black flames was not healed.
"This…"
A hint of surprise flashed in Ya Li's eyes.
She had not expected Fang Yang's black flames to be so terrifying, that even her healing power could not eliminate this flame scar.
Seeing this, Fang Yang was about to explain.
Just then, a lazy meow gently sounded.
A small, pitch-black cat ran out from within Fang Yang, landing lightly on the ground.
"This is?" Ya Li and Yun Ming simultaneously showed surprised expressions.
Seeing this, Fang Yang helplessly said, "Xiao Hei, why did you run out?"
"Meow~"
The little black cat affectionately rubbed against Fang Yang's pant leg, purring contentedly.
Its vertical pupils, burning with flames, curiously surveyed everyone, its small ears twitching slightly.
"Alright, alright, I didn't say you couldn't come out," Fang Yang said, his tone carrying a hint of indulgence.
"Is this… a Soul Spirit?" Ya Li asked curiously, examining the black cat with its peculiar aura.
"To your Majesty, it is not a Soul Spirit, but a Spirit of Flame born from the flames of my Spirit," Fang Yang explained.
"Flames can actually materialize into a living being, with such spirituality?" Yun Ming's interest grew even stronger upon hearing this. He had never seen a Spirit of Flame before.
"Brother, Xiao Hei is so cute! I want to hug it," Na'er said, her eyes sparkling with anticipation as she looked at the fluffy little creature.
Fang Yang looked down at the cat at his feet: "Xiao Hei."
Xiao Hei understood, looked up at Na'er, and then rubbed against Fang Yang again.
Only then did it lightly leap, actively jumping into Na'er's open arms, and nestled there obediently.
Na'er happily stroked its fur. Xiao Hei affectionately rubbed its head against her palm.
At this moment, Fang Yang slowly stepped forward.
Behind him, the fourth black and white gold spirit ring suddenly lit up.
Fourth Spirit Ability: "Yin and Yang Unceasing!"
A black and white flame appeared in his hand, hovering in mid-air, gently flickering.
The flame had a peculiar form; one side was an extreme darkness and stillness that seemed to devour everything, while the other was filled with vibrant, thriving life energy.
Life and death, two completely opposite forces, perfectly merged, forming a dynamic balance that emitted a contradictory fluctuation, both unsettling and irresistibly alluring.
Fang Yang gently covered the scorched mark on the Sky Piercing God Spear with this black and white flame.
The scorched mark, which had previously resisted all healing powers, began to gradually heal under the scorching of this black and white flame.
Ya Li watched this scene and once again activated her life force. A verdant glow followed closely after the black and white flame, sweeping over the mark.
This time, under the effect of the Yin and Yang Unceasing Spirit Ability's flame, the scorched mark began to fade and shrink at a visible speed, eventually disappearing completely without a trace.
The blade of the Sky Piercing God Spear was restored to its original state, its brilliance contained within, without the slightest blemish.
"Fang Yang, thank you so much," Ya Li said to Fang Yang.
If not for Fang Yang's unique Spirit Ability, even she might not have been able to remove this flame scar.
"Your Majesty, you are too kind. This is what I should do," Fang Yang said, bowing slightly. After all, he caused the damage, and repairing it was his responsibility.
Ya Li smiled gently, "You are Na'er's brother, so there's no need to be so formal in the future. Just call me Sister Ya Li."
"Okay, Sister Ya Li," Fang Yang said upon hearing this.
Ya Li then returned the perfectly restored Sky Piercing God Spear to Yun Ming beside her.
Yun Ming took the Sky Piercing God Spear, his fingertips tracing the smooth, as-new blade.
He looked up at Fang Yang, his gaze burning, with undisguised appreciation and solemnity, and spoke in a deep voice: "Fang Yang, are you willing to accept me as your master?"
"You will be my direct Disciple, Yun Ming, and at the same time, you will unconditionally become a Disciple of Shrek Academy's inner court!"
"As for cultivation resources… I can only tell you that Shrek Academy has a Legacy of twenty thousand years, and its accumulated foundation far surpasses most forces in the world."
Ya Li, who was beside them, smiled gently upon hearing this and nodded slightly, without any objection.
She knew that Yun Ming's initial willingness to accept Fang Yang was largely due to his relationship with Na'er, but now it was an acknowledgment of Fang Yang's talent and his desire to cherish such a Genius.
