Chapter 158: Chapter 158
"First spirit skill, Wing Blade!" As a boyfriend, how could Yu Feng tolerate Tang San treating Huan Yin like this? With a single strike of his wing, he severed the Blue Silver Grass in two and said angrily "Is Tang San crazy? It's just a competition, yet he dares to go this far?"
Jun Tianlin remained silent. This was the style of the Tang Clan—no matter the world, they always fought with ruthless efficiency. As long as someone was an opponent, they showed no mercy.
If the Blue Silver Strangler had landed, even if Tang San had held back enough to avoid breaking the rules and killing Huan Yin outright, the poison would have inevitably seeped into her body. The damage would have been severe, affecting not only her health but also her future training.
"Bastard!" Yu Feng had already forgotten Jun Tianlin's pre-match plan. Enraged, he shot out of the shield formation, spreading his wings "Third spirit skill, Dark Wind! Fourth spirit skill, Wind and Fire Spreading Across the Prairie!"
His third and fourth spirit rings lit up simultaneously. What happened next was shocking—Yu Feng managed to activate both skills at once. One of his wings turned blue and red, unleashing a scorching wind with razor-sharp cutting force, while the other wing turned black, conjuring a dark whirlwind that directly attacked the spirit.
"Who is this Yu Feng? Even with the Heart Separation Method of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, he shouldn't be able to split his spirit power so precisely to execute two different skills at once." Yu Xiaogang was astonished. He had never encountered such a phenomenon before.
Even the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, which amplified multiple attributes for several people, followed a sequence—first strength, then speed—rather than activating everything at once. There was always a fractional delay between effects. Yet Yu Feng had executed his skills simultaneously, meaning he could perform a combination technique entirely on his own.
"Mist Rolls Across the Sky!" As expected, Yu Feng seamlessly fused the two winds together, doubling their power. A fierce storm engulfed Shrek's half of the battlefield, filled with devastating physical and spirit attacks. Its intensity rivaled that of a Soul King's fifth spirit skill.
"Everyone assumes that the Emperor Team relies on Jun Tianlin, Gu Ran, Yu Tianheng, and Dugu Yan, but in truth, the others are just as formidable." Qin Ming spoke with pride "This single combination skill is Yu Feng's signature technique. He spent years perfecting it. Though he's less prominent in the team, his dedication is second to none."
Yu Feng's mastery came from consuming the Wind and Fire Seven-Leaf Flower, a rare spirit herb with perfectly balanced wind and fire attributes. Inspired by it, he developed this extraordinary technique.
The seven Shrek members were completely overwhelmed. The cutting winds tore at their bodies, while the spirit attack clouded their minds.
"Such a powerful attack… We must restrain him. Second spirit skill, Parasitism!"
Tang San barely raised his hand and activated his second spirit skill. Instantly, Blue Silver Grass sprouted on Yu Feng's wings, locking them in place.
It turned out that when Yu Feng had severed Tang San's Blue Silver Grass earlier, Tang San had secretly planted seeds on him. As always, his meticulous planning proved effective.
"Is everyone alright?" The storm finally subsided. Tang San turned to check on his teammates
"Brother, I'm fine" Xiao Wu reassured him. As the incarnation of a hundred-thousand-year-old spirit beast, her spirit was far stronger than an ordinary spirit master's, allowing her to withstand the attack.
Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun, both Spirit Ancestors, weren't seriously affected. However, Zhu Zhuqing, Meng Yiran, and Tai Long had completely lost consciousness.
'Damn it, Yu Feng just temporary paralyze four of them and knocked out three with a single move! He's thrown my bait plan into chaos. Fortunately, Tang San is still standing. You'd better watch this, Shi Nian—I've set this up just for you.' Jun Tianlin cast a sharp glance at the grim-faced Shi Nian in the audience.
As Shrek's opponent in their next match, Canghui Academy was naturally a focus of Jun Tianlin's intelligence gathering.
"Senior Huan Yin, how are your preparations?" he asked, turning back
"Perfect timing." Huan Yin smiled and began to play a new melody "Second spirit skill, Worldly Temptation Heart!"
Huan Yin's hidden second spirit skill was her only restriction-based ability. Anyone who fell under its influence would be trapped in an illusion, seeing their deepest desires fulfilled and becoming unwilling to leave.
In Xiao Wu's vision, her mother stood before her, holding her hand and guiding her toward Tang San. Da Ming and Er Ming stood below, offering their blessings. Getting married to the one she loved most, with her mother and friends as witnesses, was the happiest moment she could imagine.
Dai Mubai saw himself defeating Dai Weisi and sitting upon the emperor's throne. Beside him was Zhu Zhuqing, and surrounding them were three thousand beauties in his harem—his ultimate triumph.
Ma Hongjun, too, was surrounded by beauties, but unlike Dai Mubai, he basked in the pleasure of being pursued rather than chasing after them. With so many women competing for his attention, his vanity was instantly gratified.
Seeing this, Shi Nian was slightly impressed 'I didn't expect that little girl from the Emperor Team to possess such a potent illusion-based spirit skill. But she only managed this because she had ample time to accumulate power. Haha, she's still far behind me.'
"Everyone, attack now!" Yu Tianheng charged forward, with Shi Mo twins knocking Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun aside.
Jun Tianlin sent Xiao Wu off the field, leaving only Tang San against Yu Tianheng, Yu Feng, and Osler, who rushed toward him together.
But just as they thought Tang San was caught in the illusion, his eyes suddenly snapped open. Taking advantage of their carelessness, he launched a counterattack. Using his Control Crane Capture Dragon technique, he redirected Osler's momentum, sending him crashing into Yu Feng.
The two collided midair, and before they could react, Tang San bound them with Blue Silver Grass and hurled them both at Yu Tianheng using the momentum.
"What?!" Yu Tianheng was caught completely off guard. In a blink, the three Emperor members were thrown off the field—by a mere Spirit Elder!
"You… weren't affected by my illusion?" Huan Yin asked in disbelief.
"Illusions don't work on me." Tang San's purple pupils gleamed.
"I see… Brother Tang, your Purple Demon Eye has reached the pinnacle level. Ordinary illusions truly have no effect on you. I was careless this time." Jun Tianlin sighed, his expression filled with self-reproach, as if their tactical misstep was entirely his fault.
Tang San merely smiled. The match had already gone far enough. He was the last one standing for Shrek and there was no way he could win against four opponents alone. However, he had managed to take three of them down—Shrek's reputation remained intact.
After all, aside from them, no one—not even the Godwind and Elephant Armored teams—had ever defeated anyone from the Emperor Team in the Continental Elite Young Soul Master Tournament.
"We concede this match." Tang San stepped off the field, satisfied. There was no need to prolong a battle he was destined to lose.
