Douluo Dalu System - Chapter 67
Everyone one of the Seven Devils was here except Tang San, he had gone out to the Strength Clan after speaking with grandmaster regarding his next spirit ring and had stayed there for the night due to Tai Tan’s request.
“Geesh, why is Brother San so late?? We all decided to meet here in the morning to go and hunt for our spirit rings”
“Maybe he’s with a woman??”
When Oscar and Ma Hongjin’s conversation was heard by others three ferocious eyes looked at the two sending shivers up their spines,
“W-Well he isn’t like Brother Dai or you so I guess he must have some important thing and was unable to come”
“R-Right that should be the reason”
This time a black-haired odd-eyed youth put his arms around their necks and strangled them while saying,
“Bastards, what were you talking about when you said my name??”
Dai Mubai (His hair changed to black after his spirit became a variant) said with a sweet smile which didn’t look that sweet.
“Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament”
Dai Mubai said that with a serious face, but hearing that everyone’s face became serious.
“With our current ranks as long as we don’t become overconfident we have a good chance to reach the semi-finals but…. At that time we will have to face the Star Lou Imperial Academy…. I want to win against them no matter what and after that…. I want to win the championship too”
He said that with a huge smile on his face when the rest of them saw that they too had smiles on their faces.
“But where is Brother San?? He’s so late!!”
Xiao Wu asked looking at Grandmaster hoping that he would tell her where he is,
“Tang San has gone to visit the Strength Clan two days back and had stayed over there until we go to Sunset Forest today so he should be coming back anytime now”
The Shrek Seven Devils were waiting near the entrance of the academy for half an hour, they didn’t even have any place to sit, hence their impatience.
After waiting for a while they saw Tai Long with another blue-haired boy, naturally apart from the teachers, Ma Hongjin and Oscar no one could recognize this blue-haired boy. Xiao Wu didn’t care about him and looked at Tai Long and said in a harsh tone,
The girls were obviously interested in this boy, though they had Tang San in their hearts they couldn’t be blamed for taking a second look at this handsome man, his blue hair also had a slight golden and silver tinge to it which made it look shiny and even his eyes were red with slight blue around the borders a unique eye which made him even more handsome and even his body figure was quite good, almost as good as Tang San.
But Tang San who heard Xiao Wu call him a gigolo took some serious damage. He then walked straight towards Xiao Wu and took her lips…..
This caused everyone who didn’t know Tang San’s new look to get infuriated, especially Dai Mubai how could he remain calm when his brothers’ woman is being harassed by some other man.
He immediately activated his spirit which caused his hair to turn gold and attacked him, Tang San who sensed the attack stopped kissing her and defended against Dai Mubai’s attack. He naturally didn’t use any of his spirits but he used the [Ghost Perplexing Shadow] to counter his strength with speed.
Dai Mubai was surprised that this youth who looked almost as old as him, was able to resist his punch with almost 50% of his strength. Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing also didn’t wait and attacked him, Rongrong boosted their strength and speed to 30% while Xiao Wu was still dazed from the kiss.
Oscar and Ma Hongjin along with the teachers were laughing from the side, waiting for them to get their butts kicked. If Dai Mubai and the others had gotten their spirit rings and ranked up to the Spirit King Rank then they might have had a chance with Tang San not using his spirit rings or spirit bones. But they all were still Rank 40 Spirit Ancestors while Tang San was a legitimate Rank 60 Spirit Emperor.
Tang San when facing their attacks only activated his [Forbidden Jade Hands] and defended while using the [Ghost Perplexing Shadow]. Xiao Wu also regained herself and attacked with a berserk state. But despite the four of them attacking together with all their spirits they weren’t able to even force out his spirit.
This made them feel a little insulted, but then they noticed that Oscar and Ma Hongjin weren’t attacking him and neither were the teachers helping them despite them getting their butts kicked.
“Oscar, Ma Hongjin, why aren’t you guys attacking?? He kissed Xiao Wu!! You guys are Tang San’s brothers how are you not getting angry at him??”
“Brother Dai, I’m quite happy to see that you would get angry if anyone harasses Xiao Wu or the others, you surely deserve to be our big boss unlike fatty and Oscar who barely moved despite seeing your condition”
When they heard that Dai Mubai and the three girls were quite shocked, but they were only able to believe it when they saw a familiar grass shaped spirit come out of his hands. They then noticed the Twenty Four Moonlight Bridges on his waist and Wishful Hundred Treasures Bracelet in his hand.
Their faces morphed into a shocked expression when they realized who this blue-haired youth was.
“T-Tang San?? Is that you??”
“Haha, yes Boss Dai, it’s me. I know my appearance changed quite a bit so do forgive me for not telling you earlier. But I didn’t say to see how much you’ve grown these past few months and I must say, grandmaster really trained you, guy, I was almost forced to use my spirit back there”
“Haha, you also seem to have grown quite a lot these few months, just wait until I get my Spirit Ring’s, we’ll fight again after that”
“I wish that you go easy on me at that time”
They were able to reconcile quite easily but the girls still seemed dazed even now, to them the previous Tang San was the best choice as a life partner even if his looks were only slightly above average but with his current looks……
“If you all are done with your meeting we should get going its already slightly late and we have to reach there by night”
…
During their journey, they got to know that Tang San, Ma Hongjin and Oscar had gone to train under his father and he was able to awaken his spirit once more which made his face look more similar to his mother leading to his new looks.
He then told then his current rank which was 60 shocking them, they all prayed that they would not lag too far behind and cultivated even through their journey to the Sunset Forest hoping that they would be able to get closer even one bit, Zhu Zhuqing was also feeling a little pressure, previously she was able to take it a little easy but when she saw that in just a few months he was able to catch up to her rank she didn’t bother with any pride and started to cultivate.
They were even shocked to find that Oscar and Ma Hongjin were almost halfway to Spirit Emperor rank with Rank 54 and 55 respectively.
Xiao Wu was the one who was the most pressured previously her cultivation speed was the fastest among the seven devils but now she was the one with the lowest cultivation.
The teachers were quite pleased that they didn’t get too confident and were still cultivating this seriously.
In a few days they had reached the borders of Sunset Forest, their goals this time were Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beasts so they had to go quite deep into the forest.
It was pretty close to nightfall so they decided to camp at the borders of the Forest. They had a total of four tents with each tent being able to fit four people at the most. Two tents were given to the teachers and two to the students the arrangements were boys and girls a tent each.
Tang San saw that Flender had an evil smile on his face while putting something in Grandmaster’s plate, but when his and Tang San’s eyes met, Tang San left pretending that he didn’t see anything. Flender was surprised at his reaction but he smiled thinking that he too knew about the plan, but he forgot the pills and left it on the ingredients table.
The girls had prepared dinner and had happily served them, Flender and Zhao Wuji left saying that their stomachs weren’t feeling well and avoided eating that excuse for food. Liu Erlong stayed and bore through it just to make sure that Grandmaster ate as well.
But she kept putting resentful glares at the girls who naturally didn’t notice it. Dai Mubai escaped saying that he wasn’t feeling well, Tang San tried the same thing but failed and was made to eat three servings from the three girls. Oscar pretended to eat but ended up throwing the food when no one was looking, Ma Hongjin gave out the excuse that he was putting on weight and escaped the plight as well.
The three guys left while giving sympathetic looks at Tang San.
It was nice to be free!!
Even in his spiritual sea, the spirit souls were laughing at his plight. The girls ate in the end and after a single bite they almost puked it out, but when remembering Tang San eating through three whole servings they silently finished the food on their plates.
Liu Erlong said that they should be the first to be on the lookout, and just when Boss Dai tried to offer himself to be the first from the student’s side she gave him a glare which silenced him, Tang San who couldn’t see it anymore volunteered to take the first watch from the student’s side.
In the future they would all wonder remembering this moment, ‘How were so many coincidences able to happen at the same time!!!’
Tang San who saw Grandmaster’s face becoming slightly flushed went to check on the surroundings, he had already put up a beast repellent and unless it was a spirit beast of the ten thousand year rank they wouldn’t enter for the night.
With them being at the borders the chances of a ten thousand-year-old beast appearing were almost 0 so he was quite relaxed. He saw grandmaster’s face became red and his breathing faster.
But with his medical experience he was still able to keep his thoughts rational, just when he was about to take the antidote out from the storage ring he felt someone hug him from the back, when he turned back he saw a girl with white hair and deep black eyes, in the moon she looked even more beautiful he almost lost all control of his thoughts but when he saw the two other girls hug him from the sides he felt that he was no longer able to control, he could see that their faces were red with heavy breathing.
He didn’t have time to think anymore and completely lost it, he took them straight into their tent and closed the entrance.
That night four flower bloomed….
