29 Entering Shrek Academy (Part 4)

A/N : Here you go folks, today's chapter. SO ENJOY.

I know I didn't release a single chapter for two consecutive days, but hear me out will ya.

I was having some health problems lately like my breathing and had also caught cold and cough. So as paranoid as I am I went to the nearest Covid help centre and have myself checked.

And guess what the report showed that I'm positive.

So yeah, I'm now at the Covid quarantine centre and will be released only after 14 days.

3 day have passed and only 11 days are left when I can get back home. No worries though, I will continue to release chapter regularly from today onwards again.

I didn't post because I didn't have my phone for three days, CAN YOU IMAGINE? Living without phone for '3' whole days. It's like I was suffocating without it. Anyway that's all I have to say. So continue reading....

*************************************

Xiao Wu only snorted after hearing that. 'Without strength? Then I'll let you have a look at strength.'

Xiao Wu feet as if glued to Zhao Wuji, her delicate body twisted in midair and her legs kicked at Zhao Wuji's neck.

Now it would have been impossible for Xiao Wu's attack to move Zhao Wuji bear like body even a little, but right at this moment, countless vines started to twine around his body.

Zhao Wuji suddenly felt his whole body tighten, regardless of arms or legs his whole body was completely binded with sharp thorny vines.

Simultaneously vines rose up from the ground which pushed at his body, making both his feet leave the ground.

While his strength is monstrous but he can't stabilize himself in midair. And under the force of Xiao Wu's kick , his body was immediately brought to spin in midair.

"Spinning round and round is also quite amusing."

At this time Zhao Wuji muffled voice sounded. Abruptly his body stopped spinning and all the vines on his entire body burst apart, scattering in all directions and his body landing stably on the ground.

At this time, Zhao Wuji expression changed slightly, with a low roar, his body expanded rapidly. The already muscular build of his became twice its size, his height also grew one metre, the whole person looked very domineering and majestic.

"Vigorous Vajra Bear possession!"

Seven dazzling spirit rings appeared simultaneously, just as Dai Mubai said. Two yellow, two purple, three black, as a heavy pressure released from his body. The first ring lighted up as Zhao Wuji shouted :

"First Spirt Ring : Motionless Bright King Body"

A golden light wave started emitting as it formed a cloak around him that increased his defense.

Seeing this Tang Ming and Xiao Wu backed up a little and lunged at him again.

Dingdingdingdingdingdingding!!!

A clear repeated crisp sound rose from Zhao Wuji's back. Tang Ming and Xiao Wu seeing this chance also attacked him. Tang Ming directly went for a frontal clash and Xiao Wu leaped toward his shoulder, using her scorpion like hair braid.

The clear sound of metal clashing, was Zhu Zhuqing launching her attack.

When she first started dodging, she already has been waiting for a chance to attack. The most dreadful thing was, Zhu Zhuqing motions were without a trace of sound, as her entire body quietly leaped up and delivered a barrage of attack with her claws.

Zhu Zhuqing after possession of spirit, have cat like claws which helped her to attack.

Two spirit rings lit up under her feet as she continued to harass Zhao Wuji with her speed.

Tang San and Xiao Wu also launched a combination move that they practiced and perfected using it on Tang Ming.

Xiao Wu jumped and a vine abruptly caught her waist and kept enlarging till it looked like sledgehammer.

Tang San then attacked with sledgehammer like vine toward Zhao Wuji who was stunned watching this peculiar fighting style. He didn't notice Tang Ming closing on him.

Zhao Wuji expression suddenly changed as he felt a punch coming toward his stomach with extreme speed, he didn't have the time to dodge and only barely blocked while crossing his arms.

Once again Tang San controlled the sledgehammer like vine and attacked toward Zhao Wuji's leg.

This time Zhao Wuji didn't manage to dodge and his feet left the ground as he lost his balance and was going to fall over.

Tang Ming didn't missed this chance, as he jumped up and came face to face with Zhao Wuji, parallel to the ground and punched downward to Zhao Wuji abdomen with all his strength, while Zhao Wuji was in midair due to his lost balance.

'BOOMMM!!!'

A huge boom sounded and dust rose up as Zhao Wuji crashed on the ground horizontally. The ground cracked like spider web as Zhao Wuji as center.

All of them once again backed up and waited for the dust to be settled.

"Brother Ming, you didn't punch him too hard, did you. He won't die, right?" Xiao Wu asked somewhat nervously.

Tang Ming replied to her, " Well he won't be defeated by that. He didn't use any other spirit ability other than the first one till now."

After a few moments, the dust cleared and Zhao Wuji can be seen standing up from the ground and by the look on his face he looked completely pissed.

" That hurt a bit." Zhao Wuji said as he spit the dirt in his mouth. He at once came in his fighting stance.

Only about half the incense stick of time has passed since the start.

Tang Ming, Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing again rushed toward Zhao Wuji to attack.

Zhu Zhuqing first spirit ring lit up as she muttered slightly:

"Second Spirit Ring: Hell Hundred Claws!!"

Her speed doubled as she launched more than hundred attacks in a short period of time.

Xiao Wu also used her spirit ability as the second ring lit up and she came to front of the Zhao Wuji as she said, " Second spirit ring : Charm!"

As she said that, Zhao Wuji suddenly stopped attacking for a second but quickly regained his spirit.

He looked at Xiao Wu smirking and said, " Little Girl your charm won't work on me. Our level gap is too much."

This time the second spirit ring under Zhao Wuji lit up as he roared and stretched out his hand.

" Second Spirit Ring : Vigorous Vajra Palm"

A huge amount of spirit energy condensed at Zhao Wuji palm and blasted toward all of them. They all didn't have time to react as the energy blasted toward them with incredible speed.

'Bang!!'

"NO, XIAO WU!!!"

Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing was right in the way of the attack, seeing the attack Tang San shouted and tried to quickly pull Xiao Wu using his vine, which he was barely able to but she was still affected by the spirit energy and fainted.

Also Zhu Zhuqing was caught in the blast, as a bang sounded. Everyone present gasped and Dai Mubai also looked anxiously toward her, he was just going to interfere in between to save her but was a little too late.

As the dust cleared, they all looked unwilling to see Zhu Zhuqing state, but still looked at her direction.

They were surprised to see Tang Ming on his one knee holding Zhu Zhuqing in princess carry as his back was facing Zhao Wuji, covering her whole body.

They can see Zhu Zhuqing has her armed crossed in front of her face as she looked stunned at Tang Ming.

His whole upper suit was torn from the back to the front with very little clothes on his torso.

Tang Ming looked at Zhu Zhuqing with a smile and little concern and asked, " Are you alright."

Zhuqing didn't know what just happened, the last thing she know was the blast heading toward her. She thought she lost as she closed her eyes and crossed her arm right in front of her to brace the impact of the palm like blast. She was thinking that she was going to be defeated again.

But the impact never happened, after waiting for a few moments, she opened her eyes to look what was happening but was stunned to see Tang Ming holding her in a princess carry.

Zhu Zhuqing looked dumbly at Tang Ming's face and nodded. This was the first time any men have touched her so intimately.

She couldn't help but blush slightly as she felt his hands on her body. A slight feeling of warmth swelled in her heart as she looked at Tang Ming's handsome face, who has a concerned look in his eyes. She looked at Tang Ming clothes that were torn and knew that he took the blast instead, while saving her.

She has never felt like this in her whole life. She didn't know why but she felt safe in his hands. Nobody has ever saved and done anything for her. This was the first time she have this type of feeling toward anyone other.

Seeing Zhu Zhuqing nodding her head, Tang Ming also smiled at her and said, " It's good you are okay."

He placed her back on the ground, as she stood up, she looked at Tang Ming with a little worry in her eyes and asked in a low voice, which sounded like a gentle music note, " Tang Ming, a-are you alright. You didn't hurt yourself too much. I'm sorry for being careless. If not for me you wouldn't have been wounded."

Tang Ming didn't think she would say anything else but was pleasantly surprised to hear her asking him with concern.

" No, no, you didn't need to blame yourself. It was all a miscalculation on our part. And see I'm fully alright, I don't have any wounds." As he said that he ripped up all the leftover clothes in his upper body and turned around to let her see his back which looked completely unscathed without a single scratch.

She sighed in relief seeing that he was not wounded but her attention was quickly pulled toward his naked upper body.

All the girl blushed immediately, seeing him naked but can't help but take a peek at his fully ripped body. His body didn't have any shred of fat or looked buff in the slightest but has ripped muscle that looked like it has been sculpted in furnace. He has perfect dorito body in V shape.

He has body that resembles the Olympian Gods and because of his height he looked quite lean.

Tang Ming suddenly had a shiver run down his spine as he looked back and saw all the girls except Zhuqing looking at his body with greed visible in their eyes. He quickly took out a black T-shirt and another platinum coloured trench coat which he quickly wore.

He then addressed Tang San and others as he said, " Zhu Zhuqing, Tang San get ready to fight. Let Xiao Wu rest a little. Ning Rongrong give us the buffs and back u after immediately."

After saying that he immediately rushed toward Zhao Wuji as all of them again returned to their formation and attacked Zhao Wuji from all the direction.

Ning Rongrong also used her spirit ability, which used whatever left of her remaining spirit power. She was gasping for breath. She immediately again backed up.

This time Tang Ming didn't become passive and started attacking aggressively, punching and kicking with all his physical strength.

Zhao Wuji also was having a hard time fending his blows and he also have to be careful about Tang San and Zhu Zhuqing attacking him from side.

He was getting irritated as he was bombarded by Zhuqing and Tang San repeatedly with their spirit rings skills, he suddenly stomped his foot in the ground and shouted :

"Third Spirit Ring : Gravity Increase."

Suddenly the gravity increased exponentially in surrounding 15m taking Zhao Wuji as centre. They all felt their movement slow down rapidly.

Zhao Wuji didn't waste this opening and started attacking again but was again interrupted by Tang Ming who was only slightly affected but got rid of it as he activated [Godspeed] and [Observation Haki] at its fullest.

His speed exploded as he suddenly vanished from his place and reached in front of Zhao Wuji in an instant and punched him right at his chest blasting him back he didn't give him the time to regain his bearing and continuously punched at all of his opening.

Zhao Wuji was extremely angry because of his mistake. He underestimated the strength of Tang Ming.

As once again he was blasted, he immediately flipped in midair and looked at Tang Ming who was appearing and disappearing at an extremely fast speed.

He used his ' Vigorous Vajra Palm' many time in a row but never landed a single hit

Everyone including Tang San and Zhu Zhuqing gained their movement and bombarded Zhao Wuji with all kind of spirit ability.

Seeing that the time was just about to pass, Zhao Wuji immediately used his fourth spirit ability as the fourth purple ring lit up and he muttered :

"Fourth Spirit Ring : Position Trace."

As he said that be too vanished from his place and appeared in front of Tang San instantly and punched him which Tang San dodged with the help of Purple Demon Eye and Ghost Shadow Perplexing Tack. But just as he dodged Zhao Wuji appeared right in front of him and punched again.

Caught a little off guard, as he didn't expect him to appear right in front of him he hurriedly blocked his punch.

As Zhao Wuji punched Tang San was sent flying out.

Zhao Wuji then locked onto Zhu Zhuqing and once again disappeared from his place and appeared in front of Zhu Zhuqing who quickly dodged the attack by pure luck. As he was going to attack Zhuqing again he sensed someone behind and immediately punched backward with all his strength.

You have to know that Zhao Wuji is a Spirit Sage with strength and defense as his forte. So his full powered punch was very powerful.

Tang Ming sensing the punch through [Observation Haki] immediately counter-attacked with his own fully powered punch.

'BANG!!'

A bang sounded as Tang Ming was sent more than 10 steps backward and Zhao Wuji was at his place without even moving the slightest.

Tang Ming was surprised at the result of their clash as this was the first time someone took his fully powered punch and he was the one at the losing end.

Zhao Wuji too was shocked at the result. How can a mere Spirit Elder take one of his full strength punch and only back down slightly more than 10 steps? He looked at Tang Ming with an evil grin as he once again got to attack.

Tang Ming knew that Zhao Wuji was serious at this time. He stretched his right hand in front of him and muttered slowly :

" Primordial Chaos Spear."

As he said that a spear manifested in his hand. The spear looked fully black with silver blade at the top. The whole black body was intricately designed with golden pattern and which gave a very ancient and primordial feeling.

***********

Everyone stopped even Tang San and Zhu Zhuqing since the moment they both started their bout.

They were first shocked seeing him using that insane speed and again was left flabbergasted when he summoned his spirit. Now only did they noticed that he was only fighting with his physical body and haven't used a single spirit ability since the beginning.

Heck, he hasn't even summoned his spirit to fight Zhao Wuji.

And looking at the spear, they all felt a slight dread in their heart. as they all felt the archaic aura released by the spear.

After holding spear in his hand, Tang Ming's whole demeanour changed. His aura became sharp like a spear that is ready to obliterate anyone in his path.

He looked at Zhao Wuji and said, " Teacher Zhao, you should be careful."

Zhao Wuji just shrugged and also stood in his fighting stance.

Tang Ming then ran toward Zhao Wuji and hold his spear with his right hand behind his back and thrusted it forward, he poured his spirit power and coated the spear with lightning and muttered :

" First Move : Chasing Thunder."

As he said that his whole body shot toward Zhao Wuji like a thunderbolt with his right hand stretched holding his spear. His speed reached an incredible degree as all the people saw was a flash of lightning before a bang sounded.

"BOOMMM!!"

All this time he was training with his spear and after all this year of practice, he created this move with his thunder manipulation that he mastered over time.

This move can be said to sought only pure speed. As it is said that speed is invincible, with enough speed you can fight anyone. And this move was all about it.

Think someone moving at lightning speed and attacking with more than 100,000kgs of weight. The force of the impact would be more than ten times high.

And it can also be seen by the state Zhao Wuji is in. He was embeded in the wall of the opposite building that was atleast 100 metre away. His body look heavily battered by this attack as he was walking a little awkwardly.

This attack can be said to be Tang Ming's strongest attack he has except for his first spirit ring ability.

The second spirit ability was actually an auxiliary one.

After the time for a few breadth Zhao Wuji pulled himself from the wall and got on his feet as he looked at Tang Ming who was standing there with a slight smile. He was really furious now, as he once again thought the mistake he made. He really wanted to beat someone now.

As he was going to attack again, Dai Mubai hurriedly shouted :

"Teacher Zhao, the time for incense stick has already passed."

Zhao Wuji only glared at Dai Mubai then looked at the incense stick which was fully burnt out. He only shook his head and went to his chair and sat at it.

Dai Mubai also called Oscar and told him to prepare Sausages for Zhao Wuji as he walked toward Zhu Zhuqing and the others.

"Congratulations to all of you. You all passed the test."

Tang San only shook his head and said, " No, it's all because of brother Ming that we were able to hold for so long. And Xiao Wu still got hurt."

He looked at Xiao Wu with some guilt in her eyes.' I promised to protect you, but I can't even do that. I promise this is the last time I ever let you hurt.'

Zhu Zhuqing also walked a little near to Tang Ming and looked at him and said, " Thank you for your help for saving me."
