Chapter 66: Chapter 66 Breaking Tang San’s Spider Legs
The promotion competition had begun.
Shrek Academy's first opponent was Balak Academy, and they easily defeated them Tang San didn't even get a chance to make a move.
But next, they faced Blazing Fire Academy.
Having lost to Blazing Academy in the preliminary round, each of them held in their hearts a deep frustration, vowing to avenge their previous defeat.
In the previous matches, support-type members Oscar and Ning Rongrong hadn't appeared. Yu Xiaogang's strategy was to keep them hidden, and he didn't let them participate in the promotion competition either.
However, Ma Hongjun, who also hadn't had a chance to play, was arranged to enter the field this time.
Yu Xiaogang's arranged order was: Tang San, Ma Hongjun, Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu, and Dai Mubai.
The first to appear from Blazing Academy was Huo Wu.
In the preliminaries, Tang San had been defeated by Huo Wu.
Enemies meeting on the battlefield were particularly enraged.
On the field, Tang San glared at Huo Wu with anger, eager to defeat her and prove his strength.
Huo Wu looked at him disdainfully and said coldly:
"What? Are you not willing to accept it, loser? Your plant-type martial soul is naturally countered by our fire element. No matter how hard you try, it's useless. Just admit defeat early, and save yourself the pain."
Facing Huo Wu's ruthless mockery, Tang San grew even more furious.
"This time, I will not lose to you again!"
"Really? Then let me see what skills you've gained in this past month!"
A few days ago, Huo Wu had broken through to level forty-two. Facing the once-defeated Tang San, she was even more confident now.
Both sides released their martial souls and spirit rings the battle began.
To Huo Wu's surprise, Tang San didn't use his Blue Silver Grass to attack her.
Though he kept moving closer to her, he didn't seem to be trying to unleash any spirit skills.
She clearly felt that Tang San's movement speed was faster than during their last encounter, and his footwork was more elusive.
Facing such a Tang San, she had to be cautious.
After suffering two consecutive setbacks, Tang San had reflected on many things. In the Soul Master Tournament, even though Tang Sect hidden weapons couldn't be used, the core techniques of Tang Sect were skills in themselves and could be used.
Purple Demon Eye, Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, Controlling Crane Catching Dragon, and Mysterious Jade Hand these techniques were simple and practical, and when combined with spirit skills, they could generate even greater power.
Tang San knew well that his Blue Silver Grass martial soul was particularly vulnerable before Huo Wu's scorching flames.
As a fire-type soul master, every one of Huo Wu's attacks came with blazing fire, carrying tremendous power.
However, behind this powerful offense also lay huge energy consumption, just like several of Ma Hongjun's spirit skills.
Tang San intended to exploit this.
Thus, he cleverly used his intelligence and adopted a roundabout strategy.
He didn't choose direct confrontation, but kept closing in on Huo Wu, trying to provoke and irritate her into taking the initiative to attack.
Tang San agilely employed Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, like a ghost, moving freely through Huo Wu's flame attacks.
Each time Huo Wu launched a flame strike, he could cleverly find an opening and dodge with ease.
At the same time, he didn't forget to taunt Huo Wu, making her even angrier and causing her to consume more spirit power.
After several rounds, Huo Wu gradually realized Tang San's intentions.
A surge of fury rose in her heart. She couldn't accept this passive situation.
She decided to stop stalling with Tang San and instead use her ultimate move to end the battle.
"Tang San, do you really think I'll keep wasting time with you like this? So naïve!"
Huo Wu shouted angrily, leapt into the air, and her entire body ignited, the four spirit rings on her body instantly merging into one, releasing a dazzling red light.
Seeing this, everyone watching was shocked.
"What is that? Her four spirit rings actually merged into one!"
Even Emperor Xue Ye had a look of astonishment on his face and glanced at Ning Fengzhi beside him.
Ning Fengzhi's brows furrowed as he muttered:
"She can use the Ring Fusion Skill too? Could this be her special talent?"
Standing together with the other team members, Ning Rongrong exclaimed in surprise.
"Ring Fusion! She actually knows Ring Fusion!"
Oscar quickly asked.
"Rongrong, what's Ring Fusion?"
"It's fusing all of one's spirit rings into one and channeling all spirit power into a single spirit skill. It's a desperate move after using it once, your spirit power will be completely depleted."
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang's brows tightened.
"Not good, Xiao San is in danger…"
Thinking this, Yu Xiaogang quickly shouted loudly to Tang San on the field:
"Xiao San, admit defeat now!"
But it was already too late.
At that moment, Huo Wu had already activated her third spirit ability—Ring of Repulsion.
A massive ring of fire rapidly spread out from Huo Wu's body, carrying scorching heat and immense force as it surged toward Tang San.
Seeing this, Tang San couldn't help but feel a jolt of fear.
He knew this strike was no ordinary attack. He had to go all out.
If he could withstand this move, he could win the match.
Tang San quickly adjusted his breathing and released his external spirit bone Eight Spider Lances. Eight three-meter-long spider legs swiftly extended from his back, firmly embedding into the ground and encasing his whole body.
Seeing this, the crowd was once again shocked.
"What is that?"
"Spider legs?"
"An external spirit bone?!"
Yu Xiaogang's heart suddenly tightened.
He hadn't expected that the always calm and composed Tang San would actually reveal his external spirit bone, which had never been used in a match before, just to defeat Huo Wu.
The energy from the Ring of Repulsion swept in like a raging storm, mercilessly crashing into Tang San.
Tang San's eyes were filled with determination as he tried to resist the overwhelming power with his own spirit power.
However, he had underestimated the might of Huo Wu's fused ring technique or perhaps he had overestimated his own strength.
The eight spider legs embedded in the ground, originally Tang San's weapons for stability and attack, now appeared fragile under the impact of this energy.
They were instantly uprooted by the massive shockwave, scattered like leaves in a storm, powerless to resist.
Tang San's body was flung into the air by the blast.
His figure traced a long arc across the sky, accompanied by the crisp snapping sound of the Eight Spider Lances breaking. Each snap seemed to cut a deep wound into his heart.
"Ah~~"
A cry of pain escaped Tang San's mouth.
His body tumbled through the air several times before crashing heavily onto the ground, the tearing sensation of muscle and bone searing through his entire body.
Another agonized scream burst from his lips.
The Shrek Academy team members, hearing the scream, turned pale and immediately rushed over.
Tang San lay on the ground, his body covered in injuries. Several of the Eight Spider Lances had broken, scattered around him.
Seeing Tang San's pitiful state, everyone felt a pang of anguish.
"Third Brother, are you okay?"
Tang San struggled to lift his head and looked at them.
"I... I'm fine…"
Seeing the pain written all over Tang San's face, Oscar didn't hesitate to produce a recovery sausage and fed it to him.
At this point, he couldn't bother hiding his abilities anymore.
After eating the sausage, Tang San felt much better.
He stood up and looked toward Huo Wu on the stage, feeling incredibly stifled.
He hadn't expected Huo Wu to possess such a unique skill.
Even revealing one of his trump cards—the external spirit bone Eight Spider Lances—hadn't secured him a victory.
Defeated once again by that arrogant girl, he felt even more humiliated.
