62: The Undercurrent of Wuhun City
However, Tang San's current state and Martial Soul situation cannot be determined. After all, the extreme poison and toughness currently displayed by Tang San's Soul Devouring Grass aren't enough to call him an Evil Soul Master.
Chrysanthemum Douluo also planned to have someone investigate Tang San's every move over the past three months.
So, Chrysanthemum Douluo fell silent for a moment, thought of a barely reasonable explanation, and began to speak.
"Perhaps, this person's Martial Soul was originally in this state, but was slightly restrained before. As for his Soul Power, he might have obtained some natural treasures."
The three listened to Chrysanthemum Douluo's explanation, knowing that he wasn't particularly clear about the situation either, so they chose to remain silent.
Hu Liena, on the other hand, was worried about Tang San's extreme poison. How long could the three of them, as Soul Kings, resist it? After all, the poisoned Soul Venerables and Soul Grandmasters had fallen within ten breaths.
Hu Liena thought about the added trouble of Tang San, but thankfully Blue Tyrant Academy as a whole was too weak. Otherwise, Hu Liena would truly have the urge to give up and not fight.
At least the Spirit Hall Team had never encountered a genius from another team in such a terrifying state in its history. Moreover, they were known by titles such as the Golden Generation, the strongest geniuses of the past century, and so on.
Losing would have too great an impact on the three of them, something they truly couldn't bear. If Dai Mubai were beside the three, he would probably say directly to Hu Liena,
What's gold? Above it, there's platinum, diamond, and even the top-tier king. We just happen to be the King Generation, it's normal for you not to be able to defeat us.
On the other side, at Shrek Academy, Dai Mubai couldn't help but sigh as he watched Tang San defeat Feng Xiaotian in such a manner.
He wondered if Bibi Dong wanted to kill Tang San more because he was an Evil Soul Master, or because Tang San possessed the Haotian Hammer Martial Soul.
Gu Yuena couldn't help but speak softly as she looked at the pensive Dai Mubai.
"Mu Bai, it seems Tang San hasn't broken through to Soul King yet, right?"
Seeing this, Dai Mubai couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle softly. Gu Yuena seemed particularly interested in bets, so he spoke softly.
"Then let's wait and see?"
Gu Yuena let out a soft snort, and handed the documents in her hand to Dai Mubai.
"I have finished organizing the information about our Shrek team. If you confirm there are no issues, hand it over to the dean."
Dai Mubai took the documents from Gu Yuena's hand and glanced at them. The latest Soul Power levels of the Shrek Academy members after these three months were as follows.
Dai Mubai's current Soul Power level: Level 57, Assault System Soul King.
Gu Yuena's current Soul Power level: Level 53, control system Soul King.
Ma Hongjun's current Soul Power level: Level 47, Assault System Soul Grandmaster.
Oscar's current Soul Power level: Level 47, food system Soul Grandmaster.
Zhu Zhuqing's current Soul Power level: Level 47, agility-attack system Soul Grandmaster.
Ning Rongrong's current Soul Power level: Level 44, support system Soul Grandmaster.
Dugu Yan's current Soul Power level: Level 49, control system Soul Grandmaster.
Substitute teammates:
Ye Lingling's current Soul Power level: Level 42, support system Soul Grandmaster.
After seeing this information and confirming there were no issues, Dai Mubai planned to go back and give it to Flander.
Because the latest information had to be submitted before the finals. After all, most of the contestants had made breakthroughs in cultivation after such a long period of competition.
At this moment, Ma Hongjun returned with a radiant face, and also brought Yao Zi, whose face was flushed with shyness. Ma Hongjun proudly introduced her to everyone.
"This is someone we fought against before. I don't need to introduce her too much now, right?"
Seeing Ma Hongjun's demeanor, Yao Zi couldn't help but give his ear a hard pinch. Ma Hongjun acted as if it hurt greatly but didn't resist, still laughing happily.
Yao Zi cleared her throat, looked at the Shrek members, and began to introduce the purpose of her visit.
"Hello everyone, I am Yao Zi, the captain of the Plant Academy whom we fought against before. Currently, I am Ma Hongjun's girlfriend. Since Ma Hongjun is also going to participate in the finals, I would like to go with everyone. I apologize for the trouble."
After speaking, Yao Zi bowed slightly, while Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing directly pulled Yao Zi away to chat about interesting things between girls.
And Oscar directly put an arm around Ma Hongjun's shoulder, smiling and speaking in a low voice.
"Not bad, Fatty, you got it done in just three months?"
"My charm is no joke. I can instantly... instantly go buy delicious food for my little Zi baby."
Praised by Oscar, Ma Hongjun immediately puffed out his chest, ready to start boasting. However, seeing Yao Zi's cold gaze, he immediately changed his words.
Seeing this, Dai Mubai and Oscar exchanged knowing smiles. Then, Dai Mubai patted Ma Hongjun's shoulder and encouraged him.
"Now that the major life event is settled, it's time to work hard on cultivation."
Hearing this, Ma Hongjun couldn't help but speak with a bitter smile.
"Dai Laoda, I'm still not working hard enough? I've already lost a whole size."
On the other side, the three girls, Ning Rongrong, like a curious baby, asked Yao Zi about everything that happened between her and Ma Hongjun in the past three months.
After explaining everything to the two, Yao Zi was a bit shy, but she added one last sentence.
"Actually, Hongjun's talent and current character are quite good. He has also mentioned the past matters. There's nothing he can do about the Martial Soul reason. I've been supervising his weight loss recently. If he dares to mention anything else in the future, snort snort!"
Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong also nodded upon hearing this. After all, everyone has a past; it's enough to turn a blind eye to youthful ignorance. Moreover, it was sufficient that Ma Hongjun was at least trying to improve now. On this point, she also strongly agreed with Yao Zi.
A few days later, the five participating teams from Tiandou City all arrived at Wu Hun City.
Because the group of top geniuses from Shrek showed a somewhat ambiguous attitude towards the Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong did not order the pursuit and killing of the geniuses this time.
As for Tang San, Bibi Dong knew he was Grandmaster's disciple, and since he hadn't revealed his second Martial Soul, the Haotian Hammer, she had Chrysanthemum Douluo cancel the plan to continue the investigation.
After all, in front of the many geniuses from Shrek Academy, Tang San seemed somewhat dispensable to Bibi Dong.
This also made Tang Hao, who was escorting them in the shadows, breathe a sigh of relief. After all, Chrysanthemum Douluo hadn't discovered that Xiao Wu was a hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast for so many days, thanks to him concealing her aura from the side.
However, he was half pleased and half puzzled by Tang San's performance in the last match. He was pleased that Tang San's current cultivation was indeed terrifying.
But what puzzled Tang Hao was why Tang San's Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul possessed such toxicity. After thinking without results, Tang Hao simply considered it a hidden attribute of the Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul.
After all, Tang Hao had only arrived by Tang San's side in the past few days and knew nothing about his external Soul Bone being dug out or that Tang San had mutated his Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul into Soul Devouring Grass.
The main reason was that Tang Hao had mostly healed the injuries from his last battle with Dugu over these three months. The main reason for not fully recovering was that Tang Hao had tried for a long time but could only suppress the Blade Intent of the Gengjin Shattering Sky Blade in a corner to avoid triggering old injuries.
So Tang Hao gave up struggling and could only maintain his current state. What Tang Hao was worried about now was whether he could suppress Xiao Wu's hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast aura in front of Bibi Dong.
After all, with Tang San's current formidable strength, Tang Hao had even less face to tell him not to participate in the finals.
Tang Hao only hoped that in the end, if the worst-case scenario truly happened, he could rescue Tang San and Xiao Wu.
The Spirit Hall Team also returned to the Spirit Hall in advance. Chrysanthemum Douluo truthfully reported the situation of the Shrek team over the past three months to Bibi Dong.
Seeing this, Bibi Dong felt a hint of helplessness in her heart. It seemed that the difficulty for her highly anticipated Golden Generation to win the championship had skyrocketed.
However, what made Bibi Dong most curious was the actual level of strength reached by the current captain of the Shrek team, Dai Mubai.
So Bibi Dong cleared her throat, and after having Hu Liena and the other two withdraw, she looked at Chrysanthemum Douluo and gave him a task.
"Please invite this peerless genius, Dai Mubai, who wants to challenge the Spirit Hall Team, to come here for a talk."
Upon hearing this, Chrysanthemum Douluo couldn't help but worry if Dai Mubai would anger Bibi Dong. After all, he knew Bibi Dong's temper better than anyone.
However, Chrysanthemum Douluo still accepted the order and left, turning to head towards the location of Shrek Academy.
When the Shrek members saw Chrysanthemum Douluo arrive again, they thought he still wanted to take Dai Mubai as his disciple.
After all, such a thing had happened no less than ten times in the past three months.
"Dai Mubai, you have half an hour to get ready. The Pope requests your presence."
This situation also caught the Shrek members off guard, and they all exchanged glances.
And Dai Mubai took a deep breath. What was bound to come had finally arrived.
