147: Chapter 147 Feng Xingtong VS Wang Bing

"The next match is a duel between two rich young masters!" Tuaner said with an expression of hatred for the rich, waving her little fists.

She had absolutely no self-awareness about finding clothes for the soaked Mia, instead calling it 'the temptation of the wet look.'

Tuaner had been splashed with water by Mia, and her long hair was dripping wet against her face, but she was even more excited, shouting with a giggle, "The temptation of the wet look has been upgraded! It's a double limited edition now!"

Ryan silently took two steps back, fearing being dragged into this war between women.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Zhang Lingyu and Zhuge Qing standing side by side behind the crowd watching the battle, seemingly attracted by the commotion over here.

Zhang Lingyu frowned slightly, his gaze falling on Mia, then quickly moving away, his cold expression carrying a trace of imperceptible strangeness.

Mia noticed his gaze and deliberately reached out to brush back her dripping wet hair, a faint, elusive smile curling the corners of her lips.

"Hey, stop looking at that little Taoist priest. If you keep looking, he and Xia He are going to have relationship trouble! Don't you know what your own situation is?" Tuaner poked her waist. "The match is about to start. Who knows what promise Feng Xingtong made to Deng Youfu? He actually borrowed Grandmaster Liu Kunsheng from Changbai Mountain!"

"So this is a duel of ［Spirit Summoning and Commanding］?" Mia let the water from her hair tips drip onto her translucent gauze dress.

"Next match, Feng Xingtong versus Wang Bing!" the referee announced loudly.

The audience below immediately erupted into an uproar—this duel was not just an ordinary contest, but the first public clash between the legacies of the Feng family and the Wang family! It was also a probing of the new forces versus the old forces among the Ten Elders.

Tuaner excitedly shook Mia's arm, "This is much more interesting than some rich second-generation kid breaking a watch! The Feng family's ［Spirit Summoning and Commanding］ against the Wang family's ［Spirit Summoning and Commanding］. I heard the Wang family's methods are more sinister. I wonder if Feng Xingtong can hold up?"

Mia shook her wet hair and squinted at the ring. "Wang Bing... this guy's eyes make people very uncomfortable. Feng Xingtong's ［Spirit Summoning and Commanding］ is incomplete, so he would normally be at a disadvantage, but what he borrowed isn't just a spirit..."

"And you? Your succubus form was seen by Wang Bing. Do you think he's drooling? A magic spirit that can both fight and is easy on the eyes?"

"What? Just because a spirit has seen you dance, it's no longer a spirit? It becomes a devil at a glance?"

Taking advantage of the fact that the spring water on Mia's body hadn't dried yet, Tuaner cuddled and embraced her, whispering intimately, making Mia go completely limp in her arms.

After glancing at Tuaner's shameless behavior, Ryan, with his head bowed, silently added, "I heard Wang Bing's methods... are rather 'dirty'."

...On the ring.

Feng Xingtong still wore a sunny smile, cupping his hands toward Wang Bing. "Brother Wang, please give me your guidance."

The corners of Wang Bing's mouth curled into a cold arc. "Guidance? Little young master, don't go crying later."

Feng Shayan frowned off the stage. "This brat from the Wang family is truly annoying."

"Don't worry, Xingtong isn't so easily provoked." Feng Zhenghao folded his hands, watching the stage with a calm expression. He didn't know what he was calculating in his heart.

Feng Xingtong flicked his fingertips, and a wisp of black mist rose from his palm. "Spirit Invitation, Liu Kunsheng!" Instantly, the phantom figure of a giant python coiled around him, its snake eyes cold and fierce, exhaling a chilling aura.

"Heh, is that it?" Wang Bing sneered, forming hand seals. Pitch-black yin energy surged from beneath his feet. "Spirit Summoning, Evil Rakshasa!" A hideous, giant wolf shadow condensed in the smoke, with ferocious fangs, its blood-red eyes staring straight at Liu Kunsheng.

The moment the two confronted each other, the air below the stage seemed to freeze.

"What is this? I was just called by my brother to come see beautiful women, heard there was a 'temptation of the wet look,' and you show me this?" a man who looked very simple and honest complained while eating. But there was something slightly uncoordinated about his appearance.

The man next to him gave him a flick on the forehead. "Just watch! What are you muttering about? Eight Wonders, do you think you can just run into them anywhere?"

"Go!" Feng Xingtong lifted his finger, and Liu Kunsheng instantly charged out, his snake body sweeping across like a whip!

Wang Bing sneered, and the wolf shadow roared to meet the attack. The two collided in mid-air with a boom, and the powerful spiritual energy shockwave made the skin of those near the ring tingle.

In the spectator stand, Zhuge Qing narrowed his eyes. "Interesting. It's the same ［Spirit Summoning and Commanding］, but the Feng family's technique focuses on 'good use,' while the Wang family's leans more toward 'forced swallowing.'"

Zhang Lingyu said indifferently, "The Wang family seems to deliberately erase the consciousness of the spirit bodies, using them purely as killing weapons."

Daoist Wang Ye was focused solely on catching up on sleep nearby.

The situation changed suddenly...

The battle gradually intensified. Feng Xingtong kept controlling Liu Kunsheng's offensive, unwilling to over-consume the spirit's essence. But Wang Bing became increasingly vicious; every impact of the wolf shadow carried tearing power and even began to devour Liu Kunsheng's spiritual energy!

"Xingtong, watch out!" Feng Shayan couldn't help but shout.

"It's fine, Sis." Feng Xingtong retreated steadily, then suddenly changed his hand seals. "Although the spirit bodies are different, the wielder is the key—Liu Kunsheng, shapeshift!"

The original giant python suddenly twisted and changed, turning into a winding black shadow. Its speed increased several times over, circling up around the wolf shadow, and it actually locked onto its throat!

Wang Bing's expression changed, and he hurriedly formed seals, but it was too late—

"Snap!" The wolf shadow's head was instantly crushed, dissipating into wisps of black smoke.

The real killer move.

The scene was in an uproar, but Wang Bing's expression became increasingly cold. "You've got some skills... but do you think you've won just by doing this?"

He suddenly spread his arms, the yin energy around him surging, and roared, "Spirit Consumption!!"

Instantly, the scattered black smoke was forcibly pulled back, and his own figure suddenly expanded, with strange black runes appearing on his skin—he had actually devoured the giant wolf spirit body he was manipulating!

"Why does this ［Spirit Summoning and Commanding］ look so much like a dark version of Spirit Possession? At least Deng Youfu invites the immortal family he worships daily to possess him."

Speaking of this, Zhang Chulan raised an eyebrow. "The Wang family's branch of ［Spirit Summoning and Commanding］ can even absorb their own spirit bodies to forcibly increase their power! It's all about using them up and then eating them, not wasting a bit!"

Feng Xingtong also showed a grave expression, his fingers changing techniques rapidly, but Wang Bing no longer gave him the chance—

"Get on your knees!" Wang Bing rushed over with a sinister grin, his speed unbelievably fast, and punched directly at Feng Xingtong's face!

The outcome was decided in an instant. "Thud!" With a muffled sound, Feng Xingtong was heavily knocked back several meters, looking battered and dusty.

Tuaner stamped her feet in anger. "That's too despicable! Using such a dirty trick!"

Mia said in a cold tone, "It seems the Wang family doesn't care about the life or death of the spirit bodies at all."

Just as Wang Bing was preparing to completely suppress Feng Xingtong, Feng Xingtong suddenly smiled. "Brother Wang, do you know? True ［Spirit Summoning and Commanding］ doesn't rely on brute force..."

He suddenly raised his hand and clenched it, his eyes turning fierce instantly. "Spirit Return!"

In an instant, Wang Bing's body suddenly stiffened, and the black runes on his skin actually started wriggling uncontrollably! He was shocked and furious. "What's going on?!"

Feng Xingtong smiled. "Your 'Spirit Consumption' is forcibly absorbing the spirit bodies, but you forgot, they weren't yours to begin with."

"Return them!" With a low shout, those black runes suddenly exploded, and the power on Wang Bing's body instantly drained away!

"Impossible!! Your Feng family's ［Spirit Summoning and Commanding］ is not complete; we have absolute means to restrain you." Wang Bing roared, trying to recover, but the backlash from the spirit bodies had already begun—he fell to his knees, the blackness under his skin twisting and surging, his expression extremely painful.

"That's why I borrowed from Brother Youfu something that is no longer just a spirit—Grandmaster Liu Kunsheng from Changbai Mountain!"

"Besides, this is just the most rudimentary awakening of the spirit's original sense of self. Even if they have no consciousness, driven by instinct, no spirit would be willing to be swallowed and digested by something else, becoming the power of something else."

Feng Xingtong stood with his hands in his pockets, and when he spoke, he had an aura of a powerhouse, which brought great comfort to Feng Zhenghao, who was watching from the sidelines.

The outcome was decided. The referee took one look at the situation and announced loudly, "The winner—Feng Xingtong!"

The whole audience was in an uproar. Who could have thought that the Feng family's ［Spirit Summoning and Commanding］ would actually completely defeat the Wang family's in terms of technique! And it's said that the Wang family has the complete version. This incomplete version actually won against the full peerless art?

Feng Zhenghao smiled slightly. "Xingtong, this child, really didn't disappoint me."

Wang Bing was hurriedly carried away by the Wang family, but before leaving, his eyes, filled with resentment, stared fixedly at Feng Xingtong's back. It was clear he would not let this go.

Mia was thoughtful. "It seems the competition among the various families for the Eight Wonders is far more intense than it appears on the surface."

Tuaner chimed in with a giggle, "That's for sure. After all, who doesn't want to master stronger power?"

Ryan still stood with his head bowed, pretending to be Tuaner's shadow.

Zhang Chulan frowned from the side. "I heard from that fatty, Cang Long, that this guy Wang Bing has a very strong desire for revenge..."

Feng Shayan walked over and patted her brother's shoulder. "A win is a win. Don't overthink it."

Feng Xingtong let out a long sigh of relief and smiled. "Sis, you're right."

But just at this moment, no one noticed—in a corner of the spectator stand, that simple and honest man (disguised by Xia He) smiled slightly. "An interesting duel..."

"Let's go quickly. This disguise of yours isn't very useful. I've already blocked three waves of perverts for you," another man complained while pulling him away.

And in the distance, Wang Ai coldly withdrew his gaze from Feng Xingtong.
