Xiao Wu glanced at Tang San, then at Ning Rongrong, nudging the latter's waist with her elbow as she teased with a smile, "Hey Rongrong, could it be he found out we joined Heaven Dou Academy and chased you here to beg for reconciliation?"
Hearing this, Ning Rongrong shook her head vigorously after looking at Tang San and said, "He absolutely couldn't be that kind of person. He's a bad guy."
"Tang San, what are you doing here?" Ning Rongrong asked warily. She didn't believe Tang San was any kind of good person. In her heart, this man who dared break off their engagement and shattered her pride was the most evil on the entire continent!
After storing the documents in his Storage Soul Guidance Device, Tang San replied, "Just handling some official business for the Clear Sky Sect. I'm here to see your father, but it has nothing to do with you."
At that moment, a figure suddenly inserted himself between Tang San and Ning Rongrong, pointing at Tang San's face as he demanded, "Hey, you're Tang San? Ning Rongrong's fiancé?"
Tang San looked at the man blocking his way. From the description, it wasn't hard to guess this was Oscar of the Sausage Spirit. He answered, "Fiancé? You could say that, nominally at least."
Oscar puffed out his chest and declared, "Call off the engagement immediately! Rongrong's happiness should be her own decision, not her parents', and she definitely shouldn't sacrifice herself for family interests! You don't love her—you're not worthy of Rongrong!"
This was Tang San's first experience with Shrek Academy's "those who don't dare cause trouble are mediocrities" approach. It was the first time someone had pointed at him and said he wasn't good enough.
This complete disregard for his status actually gave him a strange sense of novelty.
Tang San couldn't help but laugh in exasperation. "First, this is a matter between our two sects. What sect are you from to interfere in our affairs? Second, this is between me and her. Whatever happens should be decided between us—no third party has any right to comment. Of course, I don't really care about the first two points. Third, who the hell do you think you are, ordering me around?!"
Are you telling me what to do?!
Domineering!
Tang San's aura suddenly erupted, his gaze turning sharp. Only then did Yu Tianheng and the others suddenly remember—this was the Young Sect Master of the Clear Sky Sect, leader of the Upper Three Sects! In terms of status, he outranked everyone present, even Heaven Dou Empire's Crown Prince Xue Qinghe!
It was just that Tang San had been keeping a low profile, never using his status to pressure others.
Whether it was the leader of Yu Tianheng's Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon School or Dugu Yan's grandfather Poison Douluo, all would show Tang Hao the utmost respect—or even keep their distance.
Whoosh! Suddenly two more figures appeared beside Oscar—Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun, who stood together in front of Ning Rongrong. Ma Hongjun declared, "Don't be afraid, Rongrong. The Seven Monsters share glory and defeat together. No matter if it's the Clear Sky Sect or some other sect, we'll stand by your side and support you."
Dai Mubai nodded as well, his eyes turning red as he said solemnly, "Shrek never fears trouble!"
At this moment, the six students of Shrek Academy stood together, protecting Ning Rongrong in the center. Their passionate determination moved Tang San to the point of nearly shedding tears. He silently resolved to go easy on them later.
Seeing the students united against Tang San, Shrek Academy's dean Flender and Zhao Wuji were already drenched in sweat, their faces pale.
Wait, guys, are you serious?!
Flender and Zhao Wuji exchanged glances, both seeing the same question in each other's eyes: Who's going to stop the Clear Sky Douluo now?
Can I win against the Clear Sky Douluo?
Nearby, the Grandmaster hesitated to speak, momentarily at a loss for words.
Tang San glanced at Flender, understanding their concerns, and calmly said, "Rest assured, our Clear Sky Sect doesn't bully the weak or take advantage of our strength. Moreover, Ning Rongrong and I had an agreement long ago—to settle our match at the Pan-continental Elite Soul Master Competition, without sect interference. The winner can command the other to do one thing."
"Though there's still over a year until the competition, consider this a warm-up."
Witnessing this familiar scene, Yu Tianheng and his group instinctively stepped back—someone was about to dance.
Yu Tianheng whispered, "How long do you think they'll last?"
Dugu Yan replied, "About as long as we did."
"No, that Blue Silver Grass Soul Master isn't here. I bet they'll finish even sooner."
Noticing Bai Chenxiang's eager fighting spirit beside him, Tang San patted her shoulder. "Chenxiang, step back."
"But Young Sect Master—"
At Tang San's nod, Bai Chenxiang reluctantly retreated.
Seeing Tang San standing alone while both Bai Chenxiang and the Heaven Dou Royal Team members backed away, Dai Mubai asked gravely, "Where are your companions?"
"Unnecessary. I alone am enough."
"Hmph, you clearly don't understand the importance of comrades."
Tang San momentarily choked back laughter. "You don't actually believe your group defeated the Heaven Dou Royal Team by yourselves, do you? Enough talk—let me show you there's always someone greater beyond the heavens."
"How high is the Clear Sky?"
With a skyward tiger's roar, Dai Mubai activated his Soul Avatar, boosting his team's morale as he charged forward. Instantly using his First Soul Skill, White Tiger Barrier, he enhanced all his abilities, his body enveloped in golden light. Combined with his unstoppable momentum, the sight was truly awe-inspiring.
Ning Rongrong's Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda unleashed 30% boosts to power and speed upon Dai Mubai, further increasing his striking velocity and claw strength.
Having fought both Dai Mubai and Tang San before, Yu Tianheng silently mourned. One-on-one, Dai Mubai was weaker than him—facing a monster like Tang San was hopeless. Even with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda's enhancement, he'd only reach Yu Tianheng's level.
Tang San's left eye instantly activated Rakshasa Vision, slowing his perception of time tenfold.
"White Tiger feints, Spirit Cat and Gentle Rabbit attack from behind, the food-system Soul Master provides supplies, Phoenix Soul Master gathers Soul Power for long-range bombardment, Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda boosts combat power. Not bad at all. The distribution is reasonable—a bit straightforward, but at least there's coordination." Through Tang San's Rakshasa Vision, he clearly saw everything.
"Magic Runes." Not wanting to reveal his Second Spirit, Tang San didn't fully activate his Soul Avatar. Instead, he only let the Magic Runes surface, enhancing a portion of his physical strength.
In an instant, he pushed off the ground with explosive force. With a loud crack, the floor split beneath him as Tang San shot forward like a gust of wind—not dodging but charging straight toward Dai Mubai, who had already activated his Soul Avatar.
"You—!" Dai Mubai was startled. He had expected Tang San to evade, giving Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu an opening to strike. But Tang San defied expectations, refusing to retreat and instead meeting him head-on!
"Nice feint, but just nice." Tang San's right fist tensed, muscles bulging as he d
rove his Spirit Bone-enhanced strike straight toward Dai Mubai's chest.
