Chapter 29: Long-Legged Senior Sister Tang Huo'er, Saintess Bibi Dong's Nemesis?
"Bang..."
The inner elder on the platform slammed his hand on the table and flew down, striking Lin Fan with a palm.
"You demon, you are not a disciple of my Haotian Sect at all."
This elder had a soul power of level seventy-eight, instantly making Lin Fan feel a suffocating pressure. He hurriedly prepared to activate his skills to dodge, but Tang Yiran immediately rushed over to block him, shouting loudly, "Stop, what are you doing?"
The inner elder saw Tang Yiran and immediately stopped, looking at Lin Fan fiercely, saying, "Yiran, didn't you see? The moves he used in this battle are all of unknown origin. Each move has the power of a ten-thousand-year soul skill, but he is only a teenager, level thirty-two. How could he possibly master several ten-thousand-year soul skills at the same time?"
Tang Xiao's expression was also extremely solemn. He immediately ordered several elders to take Tang Feng and the others back for treatment, and then his figure flashed, instantly appearing on the arena.
Seeing this, Tang Hao immediately came to the arena.
All these important figures came to Lin Fan's side.
This was the first time Lin Fan had met Tang Hao's elder brother, Tang Xiao. Tang Xiao's aura seemed less imposing than Tang Hao's; he appeared much more composed and less domineering. According to the original story, Tang Xiao probably didn't possess the Killing God Domain.
Tang Xiao was currently only a little over level 80, and his strength was even inferior to Tang Hao's. However, their father was currently in seclusion, and someone had to handle the sect's affairs. Tang Hao, who preferred freedom and was unwilling to concern himself with sect matters, had his elder brother temporarily assume the position of sect leader.
"Child, what exactly is your background? Release both of your martial souls."
Tang Xiao's tone was very serious; although there was no killing intent, it still made Lin Fan somewhat uneasy.
Lin Fan nodded and released his first martial soul, the Purple Flame Fire Tiger, and his second martial soul, the Shadow Battle Axe.
"What? Your second spirit actually has a ten-thousand-year spirit skill?"
Tang Xiao was slightly surprised upon seeing this and immediately said, "Even so, didn't you just use that move? What was that blood-red spirit skill? With Tang Long and Tang Feng's attacks just now, you couldn't possibly have withstood it. But the feeling I got from you just now was as if you suddenly used some secret technique to elevate yourself to the level of a Spirit King or even close to a Spirit Emperor. But now, that blood-red feeling has disappeared. What happened? You don't have enough spirit rings to use these skills. Even if you did, your current spirit power isn't enough to use a spirit skill of that power."
Lin Fan tried to calm himself down and said seriously, "Yes, Sect Master, what I used just now was indeed a secret technique. That kind of technique also damages my body. I had no choice but to use it in that situation because I wanted to qualify for the competition."
"What kind of secret technique was that? And what about your incredibly fast teleportation and the flame gun just now? Who taught you those?" Tang Xiao stared intently at Lin Fan, seemingly still doubting something.
Lin Fan thought for a moment and said, "Sect Master, these are actually types of soul skills. Now that I don't have soul rings, their power isn't enough, not as good as ten-thousand-year soul skills. Only the flying sword I used just now is the ten-thousand-year soul skill of my second martial soul. Not all soul skills require soul rings to activate. That teleportation only temporarily increased my speed by more than ten times."
Lin Fan had thought about how to answer the question about where his skills came from, but he couldn't think of the best answer, so this was probably the only way he could say it.
At this moment, Tang Hao said, "Xiao Fan's words are not without reason. Not all moves require a soul ring to activate. Our Clear Sky Sect's Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique and the Nine Absolute Techniques of Clear Sky do not require a soul ring to activate, and they are no weaker than ten-thousand-year soul skills."
"Hmm, that's right." Tang Xiao nodded and said seriously, "Those are the unique skills passed down in our Clear Sky Sect for hundreds of years. You are just a teenager. Where did you learn these moves from?"
Lin Fan was silent for a while, then bowed to Tang Xiao calmly and politely and said, "I'm sorry, I can't say these things. I promised my master that I would never tell anyone these secrets."
Actually, Lin Fan was acting. He didn't have a master at all. He was just repeating what the protagonists of some martial arts dramas in his previous life said when they were pressed about where they learned their martial arts. Lin Fan had just copied that.
Tang Yiran glanced at Lin Fan behind her and quickly said, "Big brother, I know some things about Xiao Fan. He does have some secrets he can't tell us. Don't press him."
"No?" The inner court elder looked at Lin Fan and said, "His moves are of unknown origin, and it's unclear who taught him. I think he must be a disciple trained by the Demonic Sect and infiltrated into our Clear Sky Sect."
"Impossible." Tang Hao shook his head and said, "He's only fourteen years old. Before I brought him back, he was just an ordinary disciple of the Spirit Hall."
The inner court elder pointed at Lin Fan and continued,
"Then the Spirit Hall deliberately let him infiltrate our Clear Sky Sect. The person who created these moves must be at least a Title Douluo."
"Enough." Tang Hao glanced at the elder and said in a deep voice, "If I hadn't saved him that day, he would have died at the hands of the Spirit Hall. Yiran and her four disciples encountered people from the Demonic Sect in the Star Dou Great Forest. Yiran was even poisoned. It was Xiao Fan who ultimately killed that elder from the Demonic Sect."
Tang Yiran nodded and said, "Yes, elder brother, second brother knows about these things, and my other three disciples can also testify."
Tang Xiao glanced at Tang Hao. Actually, his status in the Clear Sky Sect was not as high as Tang Hao's, but the two brothers had a very deep relationship. At this moment, he naturally understood that Tang Hao was protecting Lin Fan. Of course, he had to give face to his younger brother. He stroked his beard and immediately smiled and said,
"Alright, since you are not from the Demon Sect or the Spirit Hall, I will not ask who your master is. You are truly promising at such a young age. You are only fourteen years old. If you had used that axe after using the secret technique, Tang Long and Tang Feng would probably be dead on the stage. It seems that you have not forgotten that you are a disciple of the Clear Sky Sect. In that case, you have won, and these four competition spots belong to you."
"Thank you, Sect Master..." Lin Fan immediately bowed and thanked him.
"Xiao Fan..."
Liu Erlong and Ye Keke also ran onto the arena. Liu Erlong grabbed Lin Fan's hand and said excitedly, "You actually did it! You're amazing! We actually managed to beat a team of three Soul Kings! My god! Actually, I never thought you could win. I just wanted to try with you. By the way, Xiao Fan, are you injured?"
Although Lin Fan didn't suffer any internal injuries, he did have some external injuries, and his soul power was severely depleted. Liu Erlong and Tang Yiran took Lin Fan to the stands to rest, and Ye Keke treated Lin Fan to replenish his soul power.
The direct descendants of the Haotian Sect in the stands also began to disperse. They didn't want to see the direct descendants suffer such a humiliating defeat. No one cheered or applauded; instead, their gazes towards Lin Fan were filled with awe and fear.
After a while, three figures came to Lin Fan's side.
Two men and one woman, all dressed in the robes of direct disciples of the Haotian Sect, Lin Fan looked up at the three of them. "Who are you?"
"I really didn't expect you to actually defeat Tang Long, Tang Ye, and the other three. Well, congratulations on becoming my teammates."
The girl who spoke had long, flowing red hair that cascaded over her shoulders. She was very tall, even taller than Tang Yiran, with long, straight legs and a full figure that made Lin Fan take a few more glances.
Her figure was truly top-notch, easily over 1.8 meters tall, much like the supermodels Lin Fan had seen on television in his previous life.
"Tang Huo'er."
Seeing this girl, Tang Yiran's eyes lit up with surprise, and she quickly introduced her to Lin Fan, Liu Erlong, Shui Yue'er, and Ye Keke, "Quickly greet your captain. She is the captain of the Haotian Sect's Golden Generation team, and also the number one among the younger generation of the Haotian Sect's inner court. The four you defeated were only the lowest-ranked members of the team, while she is the highest-ranked."
This girl was actually the captain?
She certainly had the aura of a leader.
Lin Fan quickly and politely said, "Hello, Senior Sister. We only won by luck. We hope we won't hold you back in the competition."
Tang Huo'er looked down at Lin Fan and said, "Hehe, little brother, I watched your match just now. You have so many moves. Seeing your performance, I think if you were teammates, you would be more useful than those four good-for-nothings."
"What the heck? Those four good-for-nothings?" Lin Fan was slightly shocked. Was she talking about Tang Long, Tang Ye, and Tang Feng? Three Soul Kings as good-for-nothings? This girl is too arrogant.
Tang Yiran looked at Tang Huo'er with admiration and said to Lin Fan, Liu Erlong, and the other three, "Your senior sister Huo'er led the Clear Sky Sect team to second place in the competition last year. She once defeated the entire team of another sect and achieved a six-game winning streak. In the finals against the Spirit Hall last year, only she and the Spirit Hall's Holy Maiden remained on both teams. Although the Spirit Hall's Holy Maiden defeated her with her twin spirits, she also exhausted her spirit power."
"What, she's so strong..."
Lin Fan looked at this long-legged girl in shock. He didn't know what her spirit was, but to become the number one among the younger generation of the Clear Sky Sect meant that her talent and combat power were terrifying enough. She should also possess spirit bone skills.
Liu Erlong, Ye Keke, and Shui Yue'er were also looking at her in shock. This girl looked to be no more than eighteen years old, yet she called Tang Long, a Spirit King, a piece of trash. Her strength should be at least level 55 or higher.
"Hmph, this is my last year participating in the tournament. I must defeat that Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall."
Recalling her loss to Bibi Dong last year, Tang Huo'er couldn't help but clench her fists.
Looking forward to the final life-or-death battle, the Spirit Fusion battle against Qian Xunji, Xiao Wu, A Yin, and the protagonist working together to kill Qian Xunji, make Bibi Dong the Pope, and recruit the other female leads.
