25 Spirit Colosseum (2/2)

”Trust me, this team is worth coming here for though they seem slightly ordinary their previous battle record is really astonishing. They had even participated in a few rank skipping battles too and have won most of them especially this Thousand Hands Asura, he has never lost a match in any of his Colosseum matches and has a perfect battle record in individual, two-teamed and group battles.

Don't underestimate him just because of his Spirit you will find yourself in a tough position if you do so. I have even some theories to predict that he has twin spirits with the other being of a support category”

When he mentioned twin spirits everyone in the room was surprised, though it was a guess and not proven they had complete trust in their teacher so they all took it seriously. That was how the immensity of twin spirits was and with an entire spirit being a hidden trump card for them they had no other option but to go all out.

A woman with green hair and green robes who was sitting adjacent to them was a little surprised regarding this matter as he was a control type spirit master with a support type twin spirit. Apart from her the other members also paid attention to this Thousand Hands Asura.

In one corner of the room was a girl with blue eyes and blue hair, she had a complete black dress along with a black muslin over her face but if looked closely she was much prettier than Dugu Bo but with her cold expression and dress she hid most of her beauty except her graceful figure. She was the youngest among them being 16 years old almost the same age as Dai Mubai, even Qin Ming was surprised by her talent and had taken her as his disciple.

Even she finally showed an expression on her face when they were talking about Tang San.

…

Soon a day passed and it was finally the day of the battle between the Shrek's Seven Devils and Emperor Team. A lot of local nobles of the nearby cities had come to view this match and make some 'small' bets.

The announcer and referee for this match were the Arena Overseer himself and was speaking to the crowd about how he was honored to have their support and whatnot. Soon when his speech ended, from two sides of the arena seven people started to walk towards the stage.

On one side Four Boys and Three Girls while on the other side were Five Guys and Two Girls. They were the Shrek's Seven Devils and the Emperor Team, all of them had a serious expression on their face. All of the members from the Emperors Team were looking intently at Tang San, while they were also looking at the other members they were surprised to find that all of the guys had a well-built body and the girls with a charming figure.

It wasn't ordinary for spirit masters to have a better body than normal people but the level of strength and build they felt from the opponents body wasn't any lesser than a Beast-Type Spirit Master, even the support type spirit masters who were commonly known to have a weaker physique due to their spirits but it looked as if the Shrek's Devils were the exception to that case.

Though they couldn't see their face, Dugu Yan was quite attracted by the guys from the Shrek's Team especially Tang San who had the best build amongst the entire team.

While they were all checking the opponent's strength Tang San was having a strange feeling and when he saw their support spirit master, Xie Lingling he felt that feeling deepen even further, he was surprised at this and only when he remembered her spirit did he understand why.

The strange resonance wasn't from his Spirits or spirit bones but instead, it was from his Nine Hearts Body. It was resonating with her Nine Heart Flowering Apple Spirit, he had not expected this to happen at all. While he felt the resonance even Xie Lingling also felt some strange resonance from her spirit and when she saw Tang San he was also looking at her.

But seeing that they were going to fight they both decided to put off this matter for after the fight and though they had some resonance they didn't really know each other that well so it was not surprising for them to do this.

When all of them got onto the stage they released their spirits and spirit rings. 52 rings went up in the air when they did that, Tang San used his Blue Silver Grass for this fight as he knew that this fight Grandmaster wanted to prove something to his nephew and as his disciple Tang San would do that.

Their formation was Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun at the front with Tang San and Zhu Zhuqing right behind them and Oscar and Xiao Wu followed by Rongrong at the end.

The opponent was with the two twins at the front who had the Black Tortoise Spirit followed by Xie Lingling and the two agility masters by her side right behind them was Dugu Yan and Yu Tianheng protecting the rear. This formation gave complete protection to the support type from all sides.

Tang San had deployed the first attack by activating his Petals Skill which made a peach tree blossom in the arena, this provided a smoothing atmosphere in the arena while the pink petal which was falling was being controlled by him to act as a cover for their attacks.

With the sudden appearance of a tree, the Emperor Team was slightly off guard except for the Shi brothers and Yu Tianheng. Ma Hongjun and not wasted any time and used his first ability to attack the flying spirit master from their team and with Oscars ring, Xiao Wu who was flying in the air used her soft skill and threw him out of the stage.

While Rongrong and Zhiqing went after the other agility master and with Rongrong's second ability Zhu Zhuqing had much more speed and her Hell Moon Civet was a higher spirit than the normal Hell Civet with the two being nearly the same rank she was much faster than the leopard spirit master.

She went for the attack unlike Xiao Wu and used her Hundred Cuts ability to defeat the opponent while she was attacking Rongrong used the strength boost to suddenly increase her strength. With the sudden increase in strength, the opponent was caught off-guard and was almost defeated.

Just at this moment Xie Lingling used her healing ability to heal the agility master, just when she started to heal him Dugu Yan used her poison in them. Tang San who was prepared for this redirected hos petals to surround the poison and while it was causing a petal tornado Hongjun used his Purple Red Fire to set fire to the storm.

When the petals caught fire Tang San used the alcohol concoction he had previously prepared onto the fire. This slowly neutralised the poison, seeing that Dugu Yan was shocked. Tang San then slowly started to guide the fire towards Xie Lingling. Seeing this Yu Tianheng rushed forwards and used his lightning but due to Hongjuns flames it didn't do much to the tornado and came crashing down on the both of them.

While Yu Tianheng survived the attack, Xie Lingling was badly hurt, she had no other option but to step down. The agility master who had lost picked her up and took her to the infirmary since she was poisoned they fed her one of the prepared antidotes but the problem was the burns she had gotten from the match.

While Yu Tianheng had survived, he wasn't completely uninjured from the fire. After eating the pill Hongjun's fire had increased a great deal and was easily one of the top fire spirits right now. The Shi Brothers were completely busy dealing with Dai Mubai and Oscar, with his recovery sausage and him flying in the air it was truly hard for the brothers to deal with this food type spirit master.

Dugu Yan then used poison to boost their teams battle capabilities and rushed towards Zhu Zhuqing. She was really angry that they had already lost two members and one even being their support master. She wanted to somehow get revenge against them, seeing the agility type master she rushed towards her when Tang San saw that he just gave a slight smile.

After the second awakening, Zhu Zhuqing's spirit was no longer able to perform spirit fusion with Dai Mubai who also found some changes in his spirit but instead of being sad she was surprised to find that she was slightly relieved about it, though it was a loss of a trump card for them Tang San was more happy that their individual might had increased.

But that was not all, she had gained a Yin attributed Qi from her spirit, this was also slightly resistant to poisons as it had the Hell attribute. Though she would suffer damage, with them having similar ranks she was sure enough to last for quite a while against her. Dugu Yan's plan wanted to take out both Rongrong and Zhuqing but before she could even attack Rongrong, she had eaten one of Oscars flying sausages and was in the air.

Due to the loss of the support master in their team the other agility master had also fallen under Zhu Zhuqing's hand and was removed from the fight. With the Shi Brothers in a deadlock with Dai Mubai and Yu Tianheng being injured, Dugu Yan used her poison to numb Yu Tianheng's pain with her poison, though this was a risky move as using poison had its own side effects, later on, it was still manageable.

Hongjun then went towards Dugu Yan and used his third ability which covered his entire body with fire lessening the effect of her poison. Zhu Zhuqing also joined with him to deal with her, Xiao Wu went towards Dai Mubai to deal with the Shi Brothers and Rongrong switched with Oscar for support. This left with Tang San having to deal with Tianheng on his own.

Tang San used his first ability Scale Bind on Tianheng but he easily dodged it, his petals were still active and were slowly draining their Qi and replenishing his allies at the same time so as time passed the Emperor Team was having their combat powers reduced at a slow rate.

He used Web bomb on him and as a webform to capture him, he was hoping for it to work but with the boost from the poison, Tianheng was much stronger than his normal state. He had also activated his dragonification ability which increased his lightning power along with his defense but this rapidly consumed his Qi.

He then used his Thunder Emperors Lightning ability against Tang San. Tang San then activated his 12-Spider Lances against him, he had ways to deal with him without this but he couldn't use them as it would expose his secrets.

The External Spirit Bone, on the other hand, was a better choice, he didn't use his Golden Trident since it was too powerful to be revealed. The spider lances was a 99,000-year-old spirit bone it had great capabilities and to resist a full attack from a Spirit Elder was really easy.

Seeign that his all out attack was blocked Tianheng was unsatisfied but he had used up all his Qi and became unconscious. Soon with Tang San joining them the Shi Brothers and Dugu Yan also lost.

With all the Emperor Teams members losing, Shrek's Seven Devils won the fight.

…

With that they had gotten their ranks updated and as expected everyone was promoted to Silver Rank with Tank San directly becoming a Gold Rank.

While they were celebrating, Flender came in the room with another person who they didn't recognize but following him was their recent opponents the Emperors Team. When both teams saw each other they were a little taken aback, for Yu Tianheng and the others their teacher told them that they were meeting someone important so they followed him, so even they didn't expect that those people who they were going to meet were none other than the Shrek's Seven Devils.

Senseing the tension in the room their teacher spoke,

”Dean Flender, its been a while, student Qin pays his respects”

When they heard that they were all surprised, for the Shrek Devils to find out that the teacher of their opponents was their senior. But for the Emperor team to find out that their teacher was once a student of Shrek was truly a shocker as they knew that he was the second youngest Spirit Emperor.

For him to come from such a backward academy they had no words to express their shock. While they were shocked Yu Tianheng who was observing everyone in the room spotted a middle-aged man when he saw him his face had various expressions shock, sadness, happy too many expressions to be expressed he had tears running down his eyes and said,

”U-Uncle....??”

When they all heard that and saw him looking at Grandmaster even they were shocked, no one had expected this ordinary looking man to be Yu Tianheng's uncle.

”It's been a while Xiao Tianheng, it looks like you've grown….”

”Uncle...Uncle is that really you??”

Yu Tianheng went and hugged him while crying, for him his uncle was important as his father and after he was kicked out of the clan he was really sad and angry.

”Don't cry Tianheng, you are a grown man now and also the glory of the Blue Tyrant Clan while I…..”

”Uncle please come back to the clan, I miss you and even grandfather also misses you a lot, I'm sure that he will let you back into the clan”

Shaking his head he said,

”If I come back like this it still won't change the situation in the clan and your grandfather will surely face pressure from the elders. I can only come back after I prove myself so don't try changing my mind anymore”

”Uncle....”

Tianheng had a sad expression on his face, he knew what Grandmaster said was true but he still couldn't help but hope. He then realized that he was with Shrek's Team and a thought passed by his mind,

”Uncle are you the teacher of Shrek??”

Nodding his head Grandmaster replied,

”Yes, I'm the teacher of Shrek and my personal disciple is Tang San the control master who you fought and lost against due to your arrogance of having the Blue Tyrant Lightning Dragon Spirit”

”Uncle can you not take me as your disciple??”

Shaking his head he told him that he can't do so because it will only bring Tianheng problems on doing so. After that they went towards the dining room while the Shrek's Devils went to change their clothes.
