Part 1

Dai Huabin’s third spirit ring ability was truly powerful. Even in a heavily disadvantageous situation, it still protected him from heavy damage.

Although w.a.n.g Dong flew up, Huo Yuhao was still there! He did not retreat with w.a.n.g Dong but charged toward Dai Huabin instead. With Ghost Elusive Steps, he went forward as his hands turned into the color of white jade. It was the Tang Clan’s Mystic Jade Hands. While Dai Huabin was still tilted, Huo Yuhao arrived in front of him. He then waited for Dai Huabin to start resuming his upright position before hitting his chest.

Huo Yuhao used every ounce of strength available in this attack. He knew that he could not kill Dai Huabin. But this attack contained all of the pain he endured at the White Tiger Duke Household. When his palms. .h.i.t Dai Huabin’s chest, his eyes turned slightly red.

His three months of training was not wasted. Not only did Huo Yuhao’s Spirit Power and skills improve, his basic const.i.tution did as well. Mystic Jade Hands plus Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon was the most powerful physical attack he could use. Since Dai Huabin’s White Tiger Vajra was just weakened by w.a.n.g Dong’s attack, Huo Yuhao’s fully forced hit shook Dai Huabin’s chest and blood spurt out of his mouth.

Even though Huo Yuhao was agitated, he was still a mental attribute Spirit Master. No matter when, his mental powers allowed him to retain clarity. He quickly retreated after his attack and did not continue. In the next instant, Dai Huabin’s body bounced back and his tiger claws pa.s.sed through where Huo Yuhao had stood an instant ago. With his combat power, if the hit had connected, then it would have at least broken a few bones.

w.a.n.g Dong floated down and resumed his position on Huo Yuhao’s shoulders. Meanwhile, even though Huo Yuhao did not truly hurt Dai Huabin, he still still felt a shower of carefreeness in his heart.

Mom, did you see? Your little Yuhao just started your revenge. This. .h.i.t is only the beginning. There will be a day when I will gain enough power to wash away our decade of pain and humiliation.

Dai Huabin missed his counter attack. His eyes glowed with rage. He could not imagine that he did not gain an advantage at such a close distance. His opponents power was supposed to be weaker than his. But good cooperation and control of timing made him unable to show his strength. The White Tiger Vajra may be powerful, but it also exhausted his Spirit Power rapidly. If too much time pa.s.ses, he will start weakening.

Without a second of hesitation or pause, Dai Huabin charged toward Huo Yuhao and w.a.n.g Dong again.

This battle had just reached the climax.

On the other side, Xiao Xiao was also in a good condition. Her cultivation was comparable to Zhu Lu. Even though Zhu Lu’s Nether Civet was the peak of agility type Battle Spirits, Xiao Xiao’s Battle Spirit was not bad either! She still possessed dual innate Battle Spirits. In terms of overall strength, she was even stronger than Zhu Lu. Her Nine Phoenix Flute was also the perfect counter to Zhu Lu’s speed.

In the current situation, Xiao Xiao also had the support of Huo Yuhao’s Mental Detection and Sharing. If she still could not block Zhu Lu, then she might as well get kicked out.

Three one meter long cauldrons rotated in the air. Each time an opportunity seemed to present itself, Zhu Lu would increase her speed to break through. But then, the cauldrons would encircle her like a cage. No matter how hard she tried, she could not charge through.

She also tried brute force. But, her offensive strength was not enough to destroy a Battle Spirit at the level of the Three Lives Soul Sealing Cauldron.

Of course, Xiao Xiao was not an expert at offense so she could not win against Zhu Lu either. Because of this, the two of them were in a stalemate.

In the eyes of the observing teachers, this was already Xiao Xiao’s victory. For Spirit Masters, agility types counters control types. Yet, Xiao Xiao was able to control Zhu Lu using her dual innate Battle Spirits. With this, she already had an advantage by not letting her help Dai Huabin. On the other side, the Nine-Tailed Fox Spirit Grandmaster was eliminated early on because of Huo Yuhao and w.a.n.g Dong’s clever tactics. In this match, the two sides’ strengths have become much more even.

“See? I am the one with foresight, Old Yan. Haha,” said Qian Duoduo with pleasure.

Yan Shaozhe smiled, “It is too early to tell. Those three little guys have not won yet.”

Qian Duoduo laughed, “Look at their cooperation. Even though their strength may be lacking, their tacit understanding makes up for it. Over time, who do you think will win?”

Yan Shaozhe responded indifferently, “I know what you want to say. That little girl playing the flute and cauldron has been reducing her Spirit Power expenditure by using a single spirit ability from the beginning. If this continues, that little black cat will run out of Spirit Power and the win will be theirs.”

Qian Duoduo chuckled, “I knew you would see it. Then you should admit your defeat.”

Yan Shaozhe gave him a stare, “Old Qian, you have spent too much time with metals. You seemed to have forgotten some of the Spirit Master world’s teachings. What kind of relations.h.i.+p does the White Tiger Duke household and the Star Dou Empire’s Zhu family have?”

Hearing this, the smile on Qian Duoduo’s face froze, “No way. The Zhu family and the Dai family only had one pair each generation. At most, only two pairs are formed. How old is this little guy? The White Tiger Duke would actually let him inherit the household?”

Yan Shaozhe smiled, “Why is that not possible? He is not even twenty but already has three rings. This accomplishment is already greater than his ancestor, leader of the Shrek Seven Devils, standing in front of the gate of Shrek Academy. The Dai family always pa.s.sed on the position to those with true talent. The White Tiger Duke sent his son to Shrek Academy, not only to learn, but to see how far we can develop his abilities. The Zhu family also has many factions. This little girl is probably the investment on Dai Huabin from one of the factions. We will soon see whether my guess is correct.”

As Shrek Academy’s Battle Spirit Division Dean, Yan Shaozhe not only had great cultivation but was in control of all of Shrek Academy’s learnings and data. It would not be wrong to call him Douluo Dalu’s encyclopedia.

Hearing Yan Shaozhe’s words, Qian Duoduo’s smile completely disappeared. With a face of pain, he said, “I knew you old sly b.a.s.t.a.r.d wouldn’t let me gain any benefit. So you were waiting for me here. Can it be a little less? You see, this match is not over yet. If I give up now, can I give you thirty Mounted Spirit Guidance Cannon sh.e.l.ls? We have been good brothers for so many years. You know what I value most. You are cutting meat off my back now!”
