Emperor Team (2)

Flender said a little helplessly:

"I say Xiao Gang, you shouldn't have promised them so quickly, and at least waited for us to rush over. They say there are great nobles repeatedly betting, the stakes clearly are enormous, if discussing it properly, they should pay even more."

Grandmaster unhappily said:

"When did you become such a profiteer?"

Flender smiled wryly:

"One cent confounds the hero, you believe I think about it."

Grandmaster said:

"If this time is a victory, our earnings will already not be inconsiderable. Ten thousand gold coins is a very large sum, I've already thought it through, one thousand for each of the children, the remaining three thousand set aside for the Academy. A good match with my third stage training for them. Do you have any objections?"

The last line wasn't for Flender and Zhao Wuji, but directed at the Shrek Seven Devils members.

The seven practically simultaneously shook their heads, they all knew about the Academy's financial situation, furthermore none of them still lacked money. After this month of spirit fights, not only did their points go up, they still obtained the corresponding rewards. After more than five successive victories, each successive victory was one hundred gold spirit coins, surpassing ten successive victories it was two hundred gold spirit coins. Flender the day before yesterday even mentioned that right now these children were all wealthier than the Academy.

Grandmaster raised his hand to tap the cloth and silk materials spread out on the table, saying with a serious expression:

"Good, these matters can wait for later. First we'll research your enemy. For you, this will be an exceedingly challenging spirit fight."

The white cloth and silk was lined with gold lace, both sides embroidered with Suotuo Great Spirit Arena's emblem, on it was recorded a team's information. Everyone bowed their heads to read, even if it was the unyielding Dai Mubai, he still couldn't help but draw in a cold breath. Each person's heart had a kind of spasming feeling.

According to the spirit arena regulations, each team could at most have ten people, the smallest must not be less than seven people. In a spirit fight, the number of people on the smaller side decided how many people both sides would field. The team before their eyes appeared the same as Shrek Seven Devils, only seven people, material as follows:

Emperor Team, seven members, all silver spirit fighter badge holders.

Captain: Yu Tian-Heng, spirit: Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, thirty ninth ranked power attack system Spirit Master. Spirit rings: Two yellow, one purple.

Vice captain: Dugu Yan, spirit: Jade Phosphor Serpent, Thirty eighth ranked control system Spirit Master. Spirit rings: Two yellow, one purple.

Member: Shi Mò, spirit: Black Tortoise, thirty eighth ranked defensive system Spirit Master. Spirit rings: Two yellow, one purple.

Member: Shi Mó, spirit: Black Tortoise, thirty seventh ranked defense system Spirit Master. Spirit rings: Two yellow, one purple.

Member: Yu Feng, spirit: Wind Chime Bird, thirty sixth ranked agility attack system Spirit Master. Spirit rings: Two yellow, one purple.

Member: Osler, spirit: Ghost Leopard, thirty sixth ranked agility attack system Spirit Master. Spirit rings: Two yellow, one purple.

Member: Xie Lingling, spirit: Nine Heart Flowering Apple, thirty fifth ranked auxiliary system Spirit Master. Spirit rings: Two yellow, one purple.

In all the material there was no mention of the opponents' spirit abilities, regarding this, Grandmaster understood that it wasn't that Great Spirit Arena didn't want to supply them, but that they couldn't. Who could be sure that the other side hadn't held back in their previous two spirit fights? If the spirit abilities were determined incorrectly, it very likely would lead to disaster. Therefore, Great Spirit Arena let Shrek Seven Devils figure it out on their own.

Having read the opponents' data, the seven raised their heads and looked at each other, all saw that everyones' expressions were amazed. Although they all anticipated that an opponent that could reach silver spirit fights certainly wasn't weak, but they also didn't expect they would be just this powerful.

Flender pushed up the crystal glasses on his nose,

"If I guess correctly, this team certainly has a great deal of fame in some city. Why would they suddenly come to Suotuo City? Xiao Gang, you really shouldn't have committed to a spirit fight with them. Perhaps, we won't be their match."

Grandmaster calmly said:

"Pressure pushes you forward. Shrinking back when facing challenges, one will also always be unable to truly become a power. Flender, where is your youthful spirit?"

Flender's expression was somewhat unsightly from Grandmaster's words, to the side Zhao Wuji didn't neglect to fan the flames, taking joy in calamity:

"Grandmaster really is strict, what you say is right. Only meeting and overcoming difficulties will have any rewards."

"Fine, but the main thing is safety."

Flender glared at Zhao Wuji, then faced Grandmaster.

Grandmaster nodded,

"I've already guessed this Emperor Team's origins. If my conjecture is correct, then, there won't be the slightest amount of danger. Tang San."

"Teacher."

Tang San hurriedly stepped forward.

Grandmaster said:

"Although this time I still ask you not to use your hidden weapons, I will permit you to use Eight Spider Lances. Before the last moment, you can't admit defeat."

Seeing Grandmaster wasn't optimistic about the outcome, Tang San frowned, saying:

"Teacher, are we really unable to overcome the opponent?"

Grandmaster looked deeply at him,

"The chance is only thirty percent. And the chance mainly relies on you, Mubai and Zhuqing."

Raising his hand to point towards the materials on the table,

"The other side's seven people, as shown by the materials, are a kind of unusually perfect combination. You must pay most attention to two individuals: their captains. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Spirit Master and Jade Phosphor Serpent Spirit Master."

"Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, Xiao Gang..."

Flender seemed to suddenly think of something, but his words were prevented by Grandmaster's expression.

Grandmaster continued:

"Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon has an exceptionally powerful first rate attack power among Beast Spirits, considered to be the most powerful attack Beast Spirit. Its rank among Beast Spirits is equivalent to Rongrong's Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda among Support Spirits. As for this Jade Phosphor Serpent Spirit Master, since she opted to be a control system Spirit Master, then, she lets me recall one person. Flender, you still remember him?"

At Grandmaster's reminder, Flender's expression abruptly changed,

"You're not saying it could be him?"

Grandmaster nodded,

"I'm saying it's him."

Dai Mubai couldn't help but say:

"Dean, Grandmaster, don't speak in riddles, what are you actually talking about?"

Grandmaster sternly said:

"On the Continent the Jade Phosphor Serpent is just like several Great Clans, classified as a rare spirit. But since the beginning of history there has only ever been one famous Jade Phosphor Serpent Spirit Master. He is considered an extraordinary control system Spirit Master. To be precise, he should be called Jade Phosphor Douluo. I think some of you should have heard the name."

Hearing the words 'Jade Phosphor Douluo', Dai Mubai's complexion immediately changed greatly, urgently saying:

"You're saying it's that most unreasonable Jade Phosphor Douluo, known as the world's king of poison?"

Grandmaster breathed in deeply, slowly nodding,

"Besides him, there's no other Jade Phosphor Douluo. According to what I know, apart from him, Jade Phosphor Serpent Spirit Masters are a rare existence, even if it was, it still wouldn't be a control system Spirit Master. Since the other side's vice captain is a control system Jade Phosphor Serpent, I can be certain that she is closely linked to Jade Phosphor Douluo. Others might not be aware, but I know the Jade Phosphor Douluo is also named Dugu."

Ning Rongrong suddenly spoke up:

"Then don't tell me that captain of theirs is from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon clan?"

Flender smiled wryly:

"Besides the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon clan, at least I've never heard of Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragons existing anywhere else. This Emperor Team's background is terrifying. Not only these two, Black Tortoise is equally as famous as the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon. Only the Black Tortoise Spirit Masters are considerably fewer and don't have an intact school, therefore they're not as well known as the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon. Although it's like this, among defense type spirits the Black Tortoise is the number one existence."

Tang San seemed to suddenly realize something, as a control system Spirit Master, his biggest concern was naturally the other side's control system Spirit Master, asking Grandmaster:

"Teacher, in the end what does that Jade Phosphor Serpent Spirit Master use for control? As a snake spirit, it doesn't seem like it would be expert in control."

Grandmaster replied very simply, only using one word,

"Poison."

Using poison to control the battle, Tang San's pupils involuntarily contracted, but his mood was steady. Poison, what a familiar and dear word. Slightly nodding, saying:

"If it's like this, then we still truly have a chance to defeat them."

What was Tang Sect's most prominent in? Lightness skill, hidden weapons, and also their famous poisons.

Although since coming to this world Tang San hadn't had time to gather the required poisonous substances, let alone extracting Tang Sect toxins, he still had knowledge and understanding of poison, the essence of Tang Sect. A person using superior poison, naturally also had outstanding knowledge of and methods to resist poison.

Grandmaster misunderstood Tang San's meaning,

"Oscar's small sausage is only a second spirit ring ability, I'm afraid that when repeatedly resisting the Jade Phosphor Serpent's poison it will only be able to restrain it for a short time, that's all."

Ning Rongrong said:

"Grandmaster, can I make a suggestion?"

Grandmaster nodded,

"Go ahead."

Ning Rongrong said:

"In the spirit fight, our most important objective must be that auxiliary system Spirit Master."

"Eh? Why?"

Hearing Ning Rongrong's words, even Grandmaster couldn't help but feel somewhat astonished. Even he hadn't heard of the Nine Heart Flowering Apple spirit, such circumstances were extremely rare, but considering the two sides' auxiliary system Spirit Masters, with Ning Rongrong's Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda, he had no concern this side would be weaker than the opponent.
