65: Top Three Qualifying Tournament

Gu Yuena looked at the still calm and composed Dai Mubai beside her and, in a rare moment, couldn't help but tease him with a few words.

"A tiger? Is he even worthy? Even if he advances to Soul King, at best he's just evolved from an ant to a mosquito, just more annoying."

Dai Mubai yawned and evaluated Tang San with extreme disdain.

"Exactly, Sister Na, don't worry. I could solo his Shrek Academy last time, and this time will be no exception."

Hearing Dai Mubai's contempt for Tang San, Ma Hongjun quickly patted his chest and guaranteed with full confidence.

"Caution is the parent of safety. Don't forget Tang San's underhanded methods."

Hearing Ma Hongjun speak more and more arrogantly, Dai Mubai spoke with a hint of dissatisfaction, beginning to lecture him.

"Exactly! Listen to Dai Laoda. Don't you know that Tang San's Martial Soul is a bit strange now?"

Yao Zi grabbed Ma Hongjun's ear and warned him again. After all, she had also suffered from the potent poison of Tang San's Soul Devouring Grass, and that soul-piercing pain was almost unforgettable for her.

Of course, after that match, Ma Hongjun also directly gave Tang San an unforgettable memory.

At this moment, with his ear being pinched, Ma Hongjun immediately indicated to Yao Zi: I'll be good, please let me go.

Seeing this, everyone burst into laughter, while on the competition stage.

Fire Dance was very dissatisfied with Feng Xiaotian's surrender and argued with him for a while, but Feng Xiaotian was still afraid of Fire Dance being poisoned.

After all, the main effect of being poisoned by Tang San's Soul Devouring Grass was the pain in the soul. Feng Xiaotian had suffered it himself and knew how painful it was, so he didn't want Fire Dance to suffer it again.

However, the audience in the arena were all shouting Tang San's name. With the strength of one person, he eliminated a team with four Soul Grandmasters. In the past hundred years, only Tang San has achieved this feat so far.

Tang San fully enjoyed the cheers of the crowd on the competition stage before walking off. After all, even after his Martial Soul mutated last time, he was still miserably swept by the Shrek Team.

This was the main reason in Tang San's heart that led to Blue Tyrant Academy having to play a promotion match against Wind God Academy.

"Xiao San, you were amazing! Work hard to break through to the Soul King realm in these few days, and you'll be able to directly win the championship of this competition in one fell swoop!"

Yu Xiaogang patted Tang San's shoulder, popping the champagne early. The memory of being swept by Shrek last time seemed to have vanished.

Seeing this, the other students also quickly chimed in with agreement. After all, although Yu Xiaogang was annoying to everyone.

But Tang San at least did a decent job of maintaining his facade as a hypocrite, so the other teammates of Blue Tyrant Academy still had a good impression of Tang San.

Although Tang San's personality became more distorted after his Martial Soul mutated, this wasn't obvious in his current standing among his other teammates at Blue Tyrant Academy.

Moreover, in the hearts of everyone at Blue Tyrant Academy, as long as Tang San advanced to Soul King, his poison could become effective against Soul Kings.

In such a situation, even if the effective time was delayed, as long as Tang San persisted until everyone was poisoned, the championship would still belong to Blue Tyrant Academy.

After dealing with everyone, Tang San looked towards Shrek Academy, his eyes filled with resentment and killing intent when he looked at Gu Yuena, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ma Hongjun.

After all, in the last match, Shrek Academy gave him a humiliating instant kill, and it was exactly those three.

Ma Hongjun turned around and saw Tang San looking his way, giving him a middle finger without hesitation.

Seeing this, Tang San's negative emotions seemed about to erupt. After all, the current Tang San, influenced by the Blood Resentment Grass, was already approaching the same psychological state as Yu Xiaogang.

As for Yu Xiaogang's psychological state, it was (manic, irritable, arrogant, and insecure).

"San Ge, calm down. When you advance to Soul King, you can play with Shrek however you want."

Seeing this, Xiao Wu quickly leaned against Tang San's shoulder and comforted him softly.

After hearing Xiao Wu's soothing words, Tang San's emotions slowly calmed down.

Then, after bidding farewell to Blue Tyrant Academy, Tang San left Wu Hun City and came to a dark corner.

Seeing a heavily injured Soul Grandmaster before him, Tang San revealed a bloodthirsty smile. This person was exactly who the filial son Titan had prepared for him.

Tang San's excuse was also very simple: his Soul Devouring Grass Martial Soul could gain faster cultivation speed after killing "extremely evil" people.

For the young master's cultivation, Titan naturally hesitated for a moment. This method seemed somewhat similar to evil Soul Masters.

Tang San, however, spoke with righteous indignation (and extreme hypocrisy). He said he wanted "extremely evil" people. What was wrong with him gaining rewards for killing evil people, just like the Angel God?

After being "baptized" in this way, Titan still chose to help Tang San with this matter and then captured a middle-aged Soul Grandmaster from Spirit Hall.

After all, in Titan's view, everyone from Spirit Hall was extremely evil.

"I am a patrol captain of Spirit Hall, young friend. If you kill me, you will definitely make an enemy of Spirit Hall. Moreover, I am not the extremely evil person you speak of. In my entire life, I have never oppressed a commoner, and I only apprehend evil people. I have never laid a killing hand on anyone."

The middle-aged Soul Grandmaster earnestly advised Tang San. After all, his life of several decades was indeed as he said. He was just a slightly talented person born into a declining family in Wu Hun City.

After seeing too many geniuses at Spirit Hall Academy, he chose to walk a relatively ordinary path, barely advancing to Soul Grandmaster at the age of fifty this year.

"Oh? So you're innocent just because you say so?"

Tang San heard the middle-aged Soul Grandmaster's explanation and saw that he had no resentment in his current state. He planned to first torment him to provoke resentment before devouring him, as that would maximize the effect.

"It's true, absolutely true. You can investigate me... Even if you really must kill me, please, young brother, throw my body somewhere relatively conspicuous outside Wu Hun City."

The main reason he said these things to Tang San was that he couldn't die for no reason. His wife was his childhood sweetheart, just an ordinary person.

Having a daughter in his middle age, he doted on his ten-year-old daughter. Although she had no Soul Power and was frail and sickly, he didn't blame her at all; instead, he was filled with affection.

Due to his job in Wu Hun City, the family still lived a peaceful and comfortable life within Wu Hun City.

But facing this situation now, seeing Tang San's intent to kill completely under his disguise, he only wished he could die somewhere relatively conspicuous outside Wu Hun City.

This way, his wife and daughter could receive a considerable amount of compensation, enough for his wife to comfortably live out the rest of her life while taking care of their daughter.

The compensation for an accidental disappearance was too little. He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to leave his adult daughter a substantial dowry.

Because only a substantial dowry could ensure that his daughter, who had no Soul Power and was frail and sickly.

In this World where the strong prey on the weak, even without her father's support, she wouldn't be bullied by her husband's family in the future.

And the only regret in the heart of this middle-aged Soul Grandmaster was not having the chance to personally witness the day his daughter got married.

Subsequently, despite Tang San's various provocations, the middle-aged Soul Grandmaster still pleaded bitterly for his final request: that his body be seen by the patrol of Spirit Hall.

Tang San became impatient upon seeing this, his entire face twisting into a ferocious expression. After questioning the middle-aged Soul Grandmaster why he still wasn't producing any resentment.

He directly took action and killed him. After completing the absorption, he didn't feel a single trace of resentment within his soul.

He couldn't help but directly turn the middle-aged Soul Grandmaster's body into ashes and even stomped on them twice, continuing to curse as he walked away.

"A man in his fifties, not a shred of resentment, truly useless. I even considered leaving you a complete corpse. Don't you know our Tang Sect rule is not to leave any trace of the enemy? You almost prevented me from advancing to Soul King. I have to go kill another one, what a hassle."

In the end, Tang San still successfully advanced to Soul King by killing someone. Then Titan took him to the nearest Soul Hunting Forest to help Tang San acquire his fifth Soul Ring.

At the same time, the Spirit Hall Team also defeated the Tiandou Royal Academy's first team with the force of a sweeping autumn wind.

Hu Liena and her two teammates felt no joy after winning the match because the two opponents they would face in the finals were more difficult than the last.

First was Tang San, who they had just received news had advanced to Soul King. They had long witnessed how terrifying Tang San's poison was against those of the same level.

Not to mention the mysterious and unpredictable Shrek Academy, whose captain had never even made a move.

When the Star Luo Royal Academy's first team faced off against Shrek Academy.

Only one person from the Shrek side stood on the stage.
