Chapter 11 Arrogant
"Team spirit fight, the Emperor Team' victory."
With Zhao Ya's control ability, the Emperor Team avoided heavy injuries and her blue silver grass harassed the Shrek Seven Devils so much that they had no choice but to fly with Oscar's third spirit skill.
However, once they took off, Zhao Ya's third spirit skill allowed the Emperor Team to float and fight them in the air.
In addition, the Emperor Team were not subjected to a speed limit in the air like the Shrek Seven Devils were.
Oscar's flying sausage allowed people to fly with the speed of a phoenix tail crest serpent for one minute.
It was longer than Zhao Ya's floating time but Ning Rongrong didn't tell her teammates that Zhao Ya's third spirit skills would let her teammates become resistant to blunt physical attacks as well.
Only Zhu Zhuqing's claws were able to injure the Emperor Team while Dai Mubai and Xiao Wu's attacks were useless.
But as a twenty eighth ranked spirit master, Zhu Zhuqing was unable to do much damage to the Emperor Team.
Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing exhausted their spirit power to cast their Spirit Fusion, Hell White Tiger, but it was still useless in the face of Zhao Ya's control ability and harassment.
Tang San was forced to use his poisonous external spirit bone, the Eight Spider Lances, but Zhao Ya's second spirit skill granted immunity to a majority of poisons.
The outcome was that the Shrek Seven Monsters exhausted their spirit power while the Emperor Team still had a third of their spirit power left.
Shrek's teachers stood at the entrance of the passage, waiting for their disciples to walk over one by one.
"I'm sorry, teacher, we lost." Tang San stopped before Grandmaster, lowering his head.
Completely opposite to the gloom of the Shrek Seven Devils, as the Emperor Team walked through the applause to Qin Ming and Yu Feng, their eyes were filled with excitement that couldn't be suppressed.
The eight walked in a joyful atmosphere, just when they were about to return to the hotel, a person suddenly blocked their path.
"Tianheng. Do you still remember me?" A somewhat strange resonant voice, making Yu Tianheng turn his head.
In the moonlight, he could with difficulty see the person obstructing them, hesitating slightly, "You, you're, ah, uncle. How could you be here?"
The person barring the Emperor Team was precisely Grandmaster.
Grandmaster walked forward to stand in front of Yu Tianheng, "Let's chat alone."
Yu Tianheng hastily nodding, indicating to the other members, letting them return to the hotel first.
The Emperor Team people when hearing this person was Yu Tianheng's uncle naturally didn't have anything to say, directly returning to their residence not far away.
Once Yu Tianheng returned to the Emperor Team's residence, he found the Emperor Team sitting around a large table filled with food.
Peking Roasted Duck, Kung Pao Chicken, Sweet and Sour Pork, dumplings, Ma Po Tofu, Chow Mein, Fried Rice, Twice-Cooked Pork Slices, Sichuan Pork, Xiaolongbao and Pan Fried Buns paired with hawthorn juice.
The juice is rich, sweet and fruity in flavor, setting off the oily food. The hawthorn berries are soft and tart. This combination makes a refreshing dessert after a heavy meal.
"Tianheng, what's wrong?" Dugu Yan was the first to discover Yu Tianheng's ugly expression.
"What does my uncle mean by if I want to become a great spirit master I should follow his disciple's footsteps?" Yu Tianheng couldn't help but explode. "Is thirty second rank at thirteen years old so impressive? Isn't Zhao Ya better than this so-called disciple? If it weren't for a solid foundation and studying fighting techniques, I could be a Spirit Ancestor right now."
The Emperor Team all exchanged looks as their captain raged on.
"It's not that you're not talented." Zhao Ya was the first to speak up. "In fact, you are quite talented. Innate spirit rank nine is something that common people dream of and can't get."
"Zhao Ya is right." Dugu Yan echoed. "Tianheng, you are very talented. The Heaven Dou Imperial Academy is full of spoiled children. It's very good that you weren't affected by them."
Heaven Dou Imperial College was founded by the Heaven Dou Empire's imperial family. Throughout history the dean of Heaven Dou Imperial Academy has always been a concurrent position for the Heaven Dou Empire's regent. Famous, you ask? In Heaven Dou Empire the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy is the single largest Advanced Spirit Master Academy. Every kind of facility is perfect beyond imagination.
Although Heaven Dou Academy is good in itself, their connection to the imperial family brings major restrictions. The Heaven Dou Imperial Academy's first requirement for accepting students is that the student has to be a noble, making a lot of remarkable commoner students unable to join. Also precisely because the students are nobles leads to the facilities being faultless and the teacher's strength formidable and thus the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy is always the first ranked, but not a lot of famous spirit masters appear from there.
Dugu Yan sighed. "Even I was arrogant and prideful until I met Zhao Ya. In the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy, aside from Zhao Ya, who isn't arrogant and snobbish for having some innate spirit power."
"Even I am no exception. Although I don't project any arrogance, my pride has long been carved deep into my bones." Zhao Ya's gentle voice startled everyone.
No one expected the gentle girl to say something so shocking.
But Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling quickly understood. Zhao Ya was indeed a genius and had the ability to be arrogant.
Zhao Ya: "However, even though you are very talented, what is most important is that you have worked very hard. Everyone in the team has seen that you did not waste your talent."
Dugu Yan: "That's right. Talent is just one factor of your strength. Your hard work is what's most important. Didn't we all hold back on breaking through to the fortieth rank because we want our fourth spirit ring to be ten thousand years?"
