Chapter 51: The Story of Nine Heart Begonia
Seeing that her third Soul Skill, Jade Phosphor Purple Poison, was like a stone sinking into the sea, having no effect in front of the other party, Dugu Yan was instantly stunned.
"No, this is impossible."
"How could you break my Jade Phosphor Purple Poison?"
She stood rooted to the spot, her eyes filled with disbelief and confusion, as if she simply couldn't accept the reality before her.
Not only Dugu Yan, but every member of the Royal Fighting Team was somewhat stunned.
They were all too familiar with Dugu Yan's Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison; even someone as strong as Yu Tianheng wouldn't dare to easily touch it, yet Tang Chuan had easily resisted it.
Just as everyone had not yet recovered from their shock, Tang Chuan lightly raised his palm, blue light surging, and more than ten thick Blue Silver Grass unexpectedly sprang up from under Dugu Yan's feet.
In an instant, it bound her ankles.
"Hiss!"
Immediately after, the Blue Silver Grass danced like spiritual snakes, sweeping upwards, and in just a moment, Dugu Yan was tightly bound into a secure zongzi.
"You—!"
With wide eyes, Dugu Yan's face was filled with horror; she clearly felt that these Blue Silver Grass vines were not only extremely tough, but each one contained a rich life force.
Dugu Yan tried to struggle, her internal spirit power rapidly mobilizing, but the Blue Silver Grass vines binding her limbs were as tough as steel, not moving an inch.
The more she struggled, the tighter the flexible vines became, causing her blood and Qi to surge, making it difficult for her to even release a Soul Skill for a time.
"I lost."
After several unsuccessful struggles, Dugu Yan looked down at the Blue Silver Grass that had bound her into a zongzi, let out a soft breath, and said in a low voice.
"How did you do it? My third Soul Skill, Jade Phosphor Purple Poison, usually causes ordinary people to collapse upon contact, but why did it not cause you any harm? Your Blue Silver Grass…how did it detoxify?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Chuan gently waved his palm, and the Blue Silver Grass bound to Dugu Yan's body quietly receded like living creatures, saying in a calm tone:
"Detoxify? Not exactly."
"It's that your snake poison is too weak, and the life force of my Blue Silver Grass is strong enough, so you can't cause me any harm. It's like a newborn scorpion, although poisonous, how much harm can it cause if it stings an elephant?"
"If what you unleashed just now was Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor Poison, then I might not have been able to resist it."
Just then, Bai Baoshan and Qin Ming walked over.
"Haha, young friend, congratulations on passing the assessment. May I ask your name?" Bai Baoshan said with a slight smile, stroking his sparse beard on his chin.
"Tang Chuan." Tang Chuan nodded slightly, speaking calmly.
Qin Ming immediately stepped forward, extended his right hand, and said earnestly: "Hello, young friend Tang Chuan. I am the mentor and team leader of the Royal Fighting Team, named Qin Ming. From now on in the Royal Fighting Team, I will be responsible for your Cultivation and combat arrangements."
Tang Chuan and Qin Ming shook hands, nodding slightly.
Afterward, Qin Ming withdrew his hand, turned and pointed to the few people behind him, introducing them one by one:
"These are all my students, and they will be your teammates in the Royal Fighting Team."
"This is Yu Tianheng, the captain of the Royal Fighting Team, his Spirit is the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon."
"This is Dugu Yan, her Spirit is the Jade Phosphor Serpent."
"Her name is Ye Lingling, a support type Spirit Master, her Spirit is the Nine Heart Begonia."
"That tall, thin one over there is Ao Si Luo, his Spirit is the Ghost Leopard, an agility-attack type Spirit Master."
"And the Stone Brothers, Shi Mo and Shi Mo, their Spirit is the Xuanwu Tortoise."
"Finally, that one is Yu Feng, an agility-attack type Spirit Master, his Spirit is the Wind Chime Bird."
After Qin Ming finished introducing everyone, Tang Chuan then stepped forward, his gaze calmly sweeping over the crowd, then he slightly cupped his hands and said:
"Everyone, long time no see."
As soon as these words were uttered, the members of the Royal Fighting Team were stunned, looking at each other with confused expressions.
Even Qin Ming frowned, asking doubtfully:
"Have we…met?"
Tang Chuan didn't answer, just smiled faintly, then slowly raised his right hand, unfastening the Ghost God Mask on his face, "Then do you…recognize this person?"
As his words fell, he flipped his wrist and directly removed the mask.
Immediately, a handsome and refined face was revealed before everyone; his features were three-dimensional and well-defined, with a hint of calm and sharpness in his brows.
"It's you?!"
"How could it be you?!"
The few members of the Royal Fighting Team exclaimed almost in unison.
Ye Lingling raised her hand to cover her mouth, Yu Tianheng suddenly stepped forward half a pace, and Dugu Yan's eyes widened even more. Yu Feng, Ao Si Luo, Shi Mo, and Shi Mo all recovered from their shock at this moment, their faces full of astonishment.
"You are…the young man who led us out of the Spirit Beast encirclement in the Star Dou Great Forest back then?!"
"That's right, it's me." Tang Chuan nodded lightly, a faint smile playing on his lips: "Didn't expect it, did you? We meet again?"
Qin Ming looked at Tang Chuan's familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar face, then suddenly frowned, as if remembering something, and asked doubtfully:
"Wait, I remember…the Blue Silver Grass Spirit you released in the Star Dou Great Forest clearly had a layer of blue-gold light. But why does it look like ordinary Blue Silver Grass today?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Chuan smiled faintly and said:
"My Blue Silver Grass has a Soul Skill called Simulation, which can change the form and characteristics of the Spirit. To prevent you from recognizing me in advance, I deliberately disguised the appearance of the Blue Silver Grass."
Hearing these words, the members of the Royal Fighting Team suddenly realized.
"No wonder!"
"I was wondering why I didn't recognize you today…"
Just then, Bai Baoshan stepped forward again, with a hint of doubt in his eyes, and said: "Teacher Qin, have you met?"
Qin Ming immediately stepped forward, cupped his hands slightly, and respectfully replied:
"Reporting to the Education Committee, this young friend Tang Chuan is indeed the mysterious Blue Silver Grass Spirit Master I mentioned to you before, who led us out of the Spirit Beast encirclement in the Star Dou Great Forest."
"I never expected him to come to our Heaven Dou Royal Academy for enrollment."
Upon hearing this, Bai Baoshan's eyes showed a hint of pleasant surprise, then he laughed heartily twice, walked forward, and heavily patted Tang Chuan's shoulder:
"Good! This is truly excellent!"
"Young friend, if it weren't for your help last time, the Royal Fighting Team would have probably suffered heavy losses."
"Now that you have joined our Heaven Dou Royal Academy, it is even more our honor."
"From today onwards, if you have any needs in the academy, just come to me. I, Bai Baoshan, keep my word and will definitely do my best to help you!"
Hearing these words, everyone's expressions varied, especially Dugu Yan; when her gaze fell on Tang Chuan, there was no longer the initial disdain and doubt.
"Thank you, Education Committee. If I have any needs, I will come to trouble you." Tang Chuan nodded slightly, his tone neither humble nor arrogant, his demeanor neither modest nor proud.
Just as the atmosphere eased slightly, a clear and gentle voice sounded from the crowd.
The young girl in the light pink long dress from the Royal Fighting Team slowly walked out. Her long hair cascaded like a waterfall, and her face was beautiful and refined. She was Ye Lingling, the only support type Spirit Master in the team.
"Hello, I've always had a question in my heart, and I didn't have time to ask last time in the Star Dou Great Forest. Now…may I?" Ye Lingling looked up at Tang Chuan, her voice gentle yet with a hint of seriousness, she said.
Upon hearing this, Tang Chuan slightly turned his head, his gaze falling on Ye Lingling, and he smiled indifferently: "You want to ask about the Nine Heart Begonia, right?"
