Chapter 59: Titan Ape Attacks.
Silence fell upon the group as they finished speaking. However, the scene didn't last long…
"Holy crap!"
Dai Mubai and the others weren't the only ones exclaiming. Even Zhao Wuji couldn't help but exclaim. As for Xuan Mo, his pupils narrowed. He had originally assumed Oscar's spirit skill would only be slightly more powerful than in the original novel. Little did he know that this spirit ring would have such a profound, positive impact on Oscar's trajectory.
To the others, this was truly astonishing: a support-type spirit master's spirit skill could actually have the ability to independently attack. While the attack power was low, only three times, for a food-type support spirit master, this was incredibly difficult to believe. However, no one at Shrek doubted it.
Even Ning Rongrong, who possessed what was hailed as the continent's strongest support spirit, stared at Oscar with wide eyes, frozen in place.
When Ning Rongrong first arrived at the academy, she'd looked down upon Oscar, with his sausage spirit and that wretched spirit curse. She had always considered Oscar the most hopeless.
Even after Xuan Mo defended Oscar and personally tasted his spirit sausage, Ning Rongrong's impression of him began to change. But within her pride, she still harbored a lingering contempt.
But at that moment, when she suddenly heard Oscar say that his third spirit ring's skill assisted flight and also possessed certain offensive capabilities, Ning Rongrong felt as if her mind exploded.
This was unprecedented in Douluo Continent.
Seeing Ning Rongrong's expression, Xuan Mo didn't do anything, but simply went over to comfort her, following his own instincts.
...
As everyone rejoiced, the excitement gradually faded.
Not long after, Tang San slowly awoke.
Seeing this, Zhao Wuji pondered, "Well, now that Tang San is awake and our mission is complete, let's return as soon as possible. We'll avoid any further delays."
"Wait, Teacher Zhao, we might not be able to return yet," Tang San suddenly said.
Zhao Wuji frowned, stunned for a moment. "Can't leave? Why? Xiaosan, this Star Dou Great Forest is no place for fun. Now that the mission is complete, we must return to the academy as soon as possible. Otherwise, if any of you become troublesome, how will I explain to Flanders when we return?"
"But..."
"No buts!" Tang San was about to speak, but Zhao Wuji interrupted him.
Xuan Mo couldn't help but laugh. So, out of friendship, or perhaps to save time, he reminded Zhao Wuji, "Teacher Zhao, Xiaosan might have already broken through level 30."
"Huh? Seriously?!" Zhao Wuji's body stiffened, staring at Tang San with wide eyes.
"Yes, so I want to obtain my third spirit ring in the Star Dou Great Forest to avoid having to come back next time."
"Okay, okay!"
Zhao Wuji's face was filled with surprise, and he quickly grabbed Tang San and asked about his age. Of course, the record was still kept by Xuan Mo.
Then, in order to find Tang San's third spirit ring, Zhao Wuji chose to linger in the Star Dou Great Forest for a while.
Of course, to prevent the Peerless Dragon and Snake from returning, Zhao Wuji led the group on a detour that night, covering all traces before finally settling down.
...
Soon, two full days passed, and despite Zhao Wuji's meticulous search, they still couldn't find a spirit beast suitable for Tang San.
As night fell again, Zhao Wuji didn't need to give any orders. Under Xuan Mo and the organization, the men and women worked together and quickly found a campsite.
The male students set up the makeshift tents, while the female students and Oscar prepared food...
Soon, when everything was ready, Xuan Mo, roast chicken in one hand and a wine gourd in the other, staggered to his tent, which had been pitched beside a large tree. The tent curtains were wide open, and he leaned against the trunk behind the tent.
Then, with his eyes narrowed, he took a bite of roast chicken and a sip of wine, his feet propped up on a rock in the tent, looking quite content.
"Why aren't you practicing yet? Don't you want to quickly recover your soul power? You know, this is the Star Dou Great Forest?" At this moment, a gentle voice suddenly rang out from outside the tent.
Xuan Mo opened his eyes slightly, just in time to see Ning Rongrong standing outside his tent, looking at him curiously.
"Oh? Why are you here?"
Xuan Mo took the roast chicken in his mouth and waved to Ning Rongrong. Then, with the hand that had taken the roast chicken, he nonchalantly took a cleaned fruit from his "Vajra" and handed it to Ning Rongrong.
But what Xuan Mo didn't expect was that Ning Rongrong didn't even look disgusted. She took the slightly greasy fruit, sat on the rock, and took a bite.
"Brother Mo, you have so much food. Aren't you going to share some with others?" Ning Rongrong looked at Xuan Mo with confusion.
Xuan Mo smiled faintly upon hearing this. "My martial spirit relies on this food."
Ning Rongrong was incredibly clever. She didn't ask any further questions after hearing Xuan Mo's words.
Since her spirit power wasn't depleted much, she simply sat in the tent and chatted with Xuan Mo.
Xuan Mo was quite pleased with this, perhaps out of kindness or something else.
Seeing Ning Rongrong's exhausted appearance, Xuan Mo pulled out his unused water pouch and offered it to her so she could clean herself up.
It could be said that the goodwill between the two slowly grew at this moment. They were unaware of this, but
Xuan Mo, who was chatting with Ning Rongrong, suddenly changed expression. His martial spirit instantly possessed him, and he immediately grabbed Ning Rongrong and rushed out of the tent, startling her.
At the same time, Zhao Wuji roared, his deep voice echoing into the tent. "Everyone, get out of the tent! Quick!"
Just as everyone rushed out, bewildered, and about to ask, Xuan Mo's voice rang out.
"Here they come!"
The bewildered crowd immediately turned their gazes in the direction of Xuan Mo and Zhao Wuji.
"Boom!"
The hill beneath their feet shook violently, and a vague figure slowly emerged. Then, an ancient tree, five meters in diameter, flew towards the Shrek group.
Seeing this, Xuan Mo's pupils shrank, and his heart trembled violently!
"Watch out!"
Zhao Wuji immediately attacked, and Xuan Mo stepped in front of Ning Rongrong.
Furthermore, all three spirit rings activated simultaneously, creating a five-meter-high granite wall erected in front of Xuan Mo and Ning Rongrong.
Furthermore, Xuan Mo and Zhao Wuji simultaneously unleashed their two spirit abilities, Heavy Rock Intention and Gravity Compression, upon the flying ancient tree.
