"Not good!"
Facing the attack from Demon Charm, Tang San immediately thought to himself, "This is bad," and his Eight Spider Lances transformed into a shield, blocking in front of him.
Zzzzz~
The moment the Moon Blade and the Eight Spider Lances came into contact, a harsh grinding sound rang out, and Tang San's expression changed instantly.
Just now, when he only briefly touched it to borrow momentum and escape, he didn't feel it, but now facing the opponent's Round Moon directly, he realized just how terrifying this ultimate move was.
His Eight Spider Lances had undergone various enhancements, and their strength was now extremely high. Yet, even though he poured all his spirit power into the Eight Spider Lances, facing the opponent's attack, they felt as if they were about to be torn apart.
If this continued, it wouldn't take long for his Eight Spider Lances to be shattered by the opponent, and he would have nothing left to defend himself with.
As for relying on Blue Silver Grass? Don't be ridiculous. With the strength of his Blue Silver Grass, even if he instantly set up ten layers of Blue Silver Prison, they would be instantly cut down by the opponent, completely useless.
In fact, if it weren't for realistic factors, given Tang San's situation, cultivating the Clear Sky Hammer first would have been the best choice. This would not only guarantee his strength in the early stages but also ensure his growth potential by adding auxiliary spirit rings to his Blue Silver Grass later on.
But there are no 'ifs' in this world. Because of Tang Hao's factors, it was destined that Tang San couldn't cultivate the Clear Sky Hammer first. Furthermore, given Tang Hao's attitude that the Clear Sky Hammer was number one in the world, he wouldn't have allowed Tang San to cultivate the Clear Sky Hammer first either.
Even though he knew Tang San's Blue Silver Grass could evolve into the Blue Silver Emperor, what did that matter? In front of the Clear Sky Hammer, even the Blue Silver Emperor was merely a stepping stone for the Clear Sky Hammer to acquire ten-thousand-year spirit rings, not worth mentioning at all.
But what was the reality?
The Blue Silver Emperor, as the king among plant Spirits, not only possessed a natural suppression effect on other plant-type Spirits but also came with its own Domain. Purely in terms of quality, it was clearly half a head taller than the Clear Sky Hammer.
If it weren't for the Clear Sky Nine Absolutes and Great Sumeru Hammer, these self-created Spirit Abilities, being too strong, the Clear Sky Hammer clearly couldn't be compared with the Blue Silver Emperor.
Perhaps some say it's unfair to only compare their original forms, and that only the Clear Sky Hammer with self-created Spirit Abilities like the Clear Sky Nine Absolutes and Great Sumeru Hammer added is its complete form. In this state, the Clear Sky Hammer is stronger than the Blue Silver Emperor.
If that's the case, then Mo Hui has something to say.
After uploading the Air Blade Multiple Combination and Cutting Wind Wheel to Shenfeng Academy, Mo Hui basically opened up these two Spirit Abilities to the entire continent. As students from Shenfeng Academy graduated, it was only a matter of time before these two self-created Spirit Abilities spread.
You can't say that just because all wind-attribute Spirit Masters will be able to learn these two self-created Spirit Abilities in the future, all wind-attribute Spirits should be raised by one level – ordinary becomes advanced, advanced becomes top-tier, top-tier becomes super-tier, directly surpassing other types of Spirits by a level, right?
On the high platform, Bibi Dong looked at Tang San, who had been forced into a desperate situation by Demon Charm, and a slight curve appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Although this Tang San was not as good as Mo Hui, with his twin spirits and a level of forty-six before the age of fifteen, if he grew up, he would pose quite a significant threat.
Furthermore, unlike Mo Hui, a wild genius who hadn't clearly taken a side, had no background, and could potentially be recruited, the conflict between Tang San and the Spirit Hall was irreconcilable.
The Spirit Hall killed Tang San's mother, severely injured Tang San's father, forced the Clear Sky Sect into seclusion, and made this son of the original Sect Master of the Upper Three Sects endure so many years of hardship. It was already a sign of Tang San's good character that he didn't directly curse them out; how could he possibly join the Spirit Hall?
And the Spirit Hall also lost many powerhouses in the operation to hunt the Blue Silver Emperor, including even the former Supreme Pontiff of the Spirit Hall. Naturally, they also held an deep hatred for Tang Hao.
Therefore, if Tang San, this son of Tang Hao, could be 'accidentally' killed in this confrontation, it would be the best outcome for their Spirit Hall.
At the same time, the Eight Spider Lances Tang San used for defense had been shattered by Demon Charm's Round Moon, and Tang San's situation instantly became precarious.
However, just as Bibi Dong thought Demon Charm would be able to 'accidentally' eliminate Tang San, a fiery figure leaped down from the distant high platform, rapidly arriving in front of Tang San and blocking the attack for him.
The person who arrived was precisely Liu Erlong. Only she would directly disregard the Spirit Hall's prohibition and jump down from the spectator stands to protect Tang San.
At this point, Flender also sighed, flew onto the stage, and bowed slightly towards Bibi Dong, saying, "I apologize, Your Holiness the Supreme Pontiff. This teacher of ours made such a mistake because she was overly concerned about her student. This match is a loss for our Shrek!"
"It's alright!"
Although she was itching with hatred internally, Bibi Dong replied with a calm and composed expression on her face.
Hearing this, Flender bowed slightly to Bibi Dong again, and then, together with Liu Erlong, carried the unconscious Shrek members and left the square.
As for Shrek losing, Flender didn't have much of a reaction, because this year's Shenfeng Academy and Spirit Hall were simply too strong.
His only regret was not winning the championship. After all, with Shrek's current strength, if they were in previous competitions, relying on their Seven-in-One Fusion Skill, they truly had a chance to win the championship.
Half an hour later, in the Spirit Hall, the Council Hall.
Bibi Dong sat at the head seat, her eyes slightly narrowed as she looked at the Spirit Hall Team kneeling on one knee below, and said, "You should know why I summoned you here, right?"
As soon as Bibi Dong said this, the seven people below immediately lowered their heads, feeling deeply ashamed. Aside from defeating Shrek, they had basically failed to complete any of the Supreme Pontiff's tasks.
After a moment, Xie Yue and Hu Liena were the first to speak: "We failed to live up to His Holiness the Supreme Pontiff's trust and did not kill Tang San in battle!"
"This matter is indeed your mistake, but you cannot be entirely blamed. After all, no one expected that woman to be so audacious as to dare violate the Spirit Hall's orders."
Speaking of this, Bibi Dong tightened her grip on her scepter. Just thinking that Yu Xiaogang was willing to accept his sister instead of coming to her to rekindle their relationship made her angry.
After a moment, Bibi Dong returned to her normal state and continued, "For tomorrow's decisive battle against Divine Wind, are you confident?"
"Mo Hui is indeed powerful, but he is only one person. Nana and my Spirit Fusion Skill should be enough to handle him. The only pity is that time is too short, and I didn't have time to improve the Round Moon. Otherwise, our chances of winning should be even higher," Xie Yue replied after thinking for a moment.
"Oh, improve the Round Moon?"
Hearing this, Bibi Dong's eyes lit up, and she asked further, somewhat surprised.
In her opinion, as a self-created Spirit Ability, the Round Moon was already quite perfect, but Xie Yue could still improve it?
Xie Yue nodded and said, "Yes, Your Holiness the Supreme Pontiff. I got the inspiration after fighting Mo Hui today, from his self-created Spirit Ability called Cutting Wind Wheel."
