Battles At Sword Mountain! (1)

Yu Xiaogang got everyone into a carriage and the began to set off towards sword mountain were the next tournament event would be held, the mountain is between the two empires the tournament would be held in the border between them, at the sword mountain, where legend has it that the mountain looked like that after a battle between the angel god and the asura god, after the long battle they had that lasted 1018 days the angel god left her sword here and it turned into the mountain, giving it the shape of a sword.

The members of Shrek soon arrived at Cole City where they were going to stay and when they got there they were greeted by an imperial knight captain by the name of Roxon who was going t lead them to their lodging.

Later that day they all met up to hear what the knight captain had to say to all the participants, "The majesty has decided to grant the qualifying teams of the ranking round one thousand acres of land as well as the title of viscount!", but soon after he finished what he had to say a hand touched his shoulder and prince Xue Qinghe who said, "The team who emerges as the champion of the spirit master tournament will be promoted by another two ranks and will become heaven dou's hereditary earls as well as be rewarded with ten thousand acres of land!", Oscar was sweating next to Rongrong and Ray and said, "E-earl...it's earl...did you hear that Rongrong? Haha! Earl! Rongrong! Haha! I still have a chance!" and then they both had a little celebration, "You know we still have to win you know, hold your celebration for when we actually will, all the more sweeter when we have the victory!", Ray commented which made the pair stop and nod their heads.

Soon though the matches started and third round had begun according to the ballot results, heaven dou's Shrek academy vs start lou's Botanic academy, Roxan the knight captain was the acting referee and he called for the first members of both teams to come on the stage, it was someone called Tian Tian against Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu won as the other girl was too shy and didn't seem a sociable person and thought Xiao Wu was going to bully her as she was asked to leave by her, she left crying.

Next was someone named Han Shu who thought he could get his revenge for his teammate and called Xiao Wu a 'bag aunt' even though she was still not 16 let alone 18+, Xiao Wu got triggered and teleported out of all his attacks and kicked him in the face and out of the stage, eventually Xiao Wu beat the other seven and got onto the eighth member, the captain who was taller than the other members of his team who all looked like little kids, his name was Nan Zhi who thought he could defeat Xiao Wu with poison but her heavenly herb made it backfire on the opponent and let her win, meaning she knocked out all of team Botanics' members.

Later on in the day, everyone went and looked at the items sold in the market, Fatty went to go and get some food, Zhu Zhu Qing and Mubai went to go and look around as well as the other two couples, all that's left is Ray who wondered about whilst thinking, 'Wait...aren't members of Mubai's clan here? Should I stop them, now that I think about how do I help Mubai when they try to get rid of his god powers? I can't just stop them, well I can but Spirit hall is conspiring with them and I don't want to deal with them yet, everyone's not strong enough yet. Hey [Ridley] got any ideas?', 'Yes, you could always wait for them to force Dai Mubai to give up his god inheritance and as they god soul drift away you could capture and give it back to Mubai but it would be hard to do without the right item, the [Spirit Jade Trapping Bottle] with it you could trap the spirit of the sage and return it to Mubai again or you could heal Zhu Zhu Qing secretly and Mask the aura Mubai gives off, it's your choice to decide.', 'Hmm...both are good options, how much is the item?', 'It is 60,000 system points', 'The hell?! Even the buyable abilities aren't that expensive!', 'Oh...I forgot to tell you, the system update made the items and abilities in the shop double the previous price as they should've been that price from the beginning, some are even higher than that.', 'Fuck! I knew something was up when I saw the original prices they seemed too good to be true, I should've bought another ability, damn it!!', Ray had a sour face after hearing this news and continued thinking about his options, he decided the second option as he didn't have enough system points even if he continued any main or side missions, Ray didn't find anything interesting and decided to go back to his room and rest.

...

NEXT DAY

...

Yu Xiaogang called everyone into his office to talk about there next match, "In two days time you will be meeting with blazing again, do you guys have any thoughts?", "With Xiao san and Ray around we don't have to worry about it battling against them! With his anti-fire blackening and Ray's ability to use ice and fire as well as the other elements to a crazy degree it an easy win!", Oscar said as if he wasn't bothered in the slightest.

Ma Hong Jun then asked, "This time it should my turn to go first! Let me teach you guys how you should play with fire! I can right teacher?", "Nope, for this battle Ray or Xiao san should go first as they both have the best abilities to restrain blazing if either of them goes up we can pay the smallest price for the most favourable results.", "Ah! No, if they go up then I won't even get a turn! Ray, Xiao san you guys will at least let me get to fight two of em' right?!", he was ignored and then Yu Xiaogang talked about how the rest of them shouldn't underestimate the opponents as they might have got an understanding of Xiao sn abilities for anti-fire or Ray's ability to control fire and ice and etc...

...

TWO DAYS LATER

...

It was now time for Blazing academy vs Shrek academy and blazing decided to let their captain go first, the person who was to go against him, in the end, was decided as Ray who wasn't really considering this as a fight but really a beatdown on their team, their captain was sweating when he saw Ray enter as his team he would show up towards the end but no, he was here in front of him...

Ray stood still as the captain of the team blazing used his [Explosive Flame Strike] and said, "You may have beat us in the qualifiers but today I will get my revenge! Take this!", he sent his attack forward but it disappeared and was sent back even stronger towards him, this shocked the captain profusely and he froze for a second but for that second he was hit by his own attack and then frozen from the bottom to his upper body, "Damn it!! I-", but then Ray put a sheet of ice over his mouth and said, "Losers shouldn't try to argue with the results!", this all happened in under 10 seconds and Roxon said, "Shrek's Ray Yin wins!", next was the flame sword user Huo Che Xiang who said, "Hmph! I've waited for this battle for so long! I've trained hard ever since I was defeated by you-", but then he was stopped by Huo Wu who said, "You go down, I'll deal with him!", "ah?", Roxon tried to explain that they couldn't change the rules for the order that easily but then Huo Wu said, "He's admitted defeat! Those who are going up before me, all admit defeat!!", "B-but I still have my ultimate mo-", "You guys aren't a match for him, get down quickly!", he sighed and left the stage, Roxon just went with it and said, "Alright then! Match continued! Shrek's Ray Yin against Blazing academy's last contestant Huo Wu!", "...", Ray just watched and thought, 'I can never get over the fact that they say the same stuff as the original, it's so trippy!!', Huo Wu kept his silence as his confidence to win and said, "Hey! Don't you have anything to say?! Or do you think you can win against me that easily so there's nothing worth saying? Hmph! Don't think that just because you can control the elements you're all that great...even if you are that great...(whispered), today your gonna lose!", Ray looked at her and thought, 'Wait...did she just compliment me, the heck, this didn't happen in the original, don't tell me...', Huo Wu's flame went purple and she started to attack, 'Hmm...this flame is pretty cool all things considered, poison eh, lets see how you like this.', Ray walked in front of her attacks and spread his hands out and they started to smoke up, as the corrosive flames were about to touch him, he clenched his hand in a grabbing motion and the flame stopped in his hand and he said, "Nice attempt! But flames of this level are going to be insufficient!", 'Sorry Tang san had to take that line from ya'!' the flames in his hand dissipated in the air, "Eh!!! Good! Good for you Ray! Just because you can grab my flames you think you're better than me?! I bet they hurt, you're just pretending! You're just trying to act cool!" inwardly she thought, 'Ah! He caught my flames, he's just as powerful as I remembered with his gemstone like eyes and lustrous white hair, are purple edges dye or not?', "You know you have nice flames and from my understanding of spirit beasts and their effects when they mix with things like this especially when said spirit beast is the purple tongued toad, it's what's giving you the corrosive effect and this toad's poison can do harm to people and judging by the fact that your hands are covered with gloves they have already changed with strong fire speeding up the poison in your hands your gonna turn crippled! Using this flame will only increase the speed of how quick the poison infiltrates the bloodstream! Your hands will change to be more like a toad's webbed feet but anyway back to the match!", Huo Wu didn't retort as she knew he was right, "Imma just end this now then!", Ray teleported in front of her and pushed her down onto the ground, his eyes went silver with a slightly arrogant gaze and the earth around him covered Huo Wu, he then froze her body to make her unmovable and unable to battle, Roxon waited for a bit and before he could declare Ray the winner, Huo Wu combined her rings and her flames turned into an even darker shade of purple and started to slowly melt the ice, "Oh? Not bad!", Ray said and waited for her to attach as it was supposed to be around the level of a spirit emperor or a low-level spirit saint, 'Let's see how this attack fairs against my strongest ice attack!', Ray's arms and legs went into a cold blue and an ice-like armour went around them he had used his [Ice Barrage] he threw out two punches and kicks the ice like armour flew off his arms and legs and grew in the air and were stuck in the motion they were sent out in, the two attacks met, the dark purple menacing flames tried to resist but where overpowered by the ice limbs that created an icy explosion on contact and engulfed the flames, 'Well at least they tried to resist, so they're not all that bad for a supposed flame strength of a spirit saint.', the answer was obvious, the ice attack carried forward and landed around Huo Wu and again froze her, Roxon declared Ray the winner.

Ray got rid of the ice on Huo Wu's body and cleared the stage of the remnants of his attack, Huo Wu was slowly getting up and Ray went up to her, "What?", "You might want this?", in his hands was a ghost cut grass of 500 years, Huo Wu had a tear in her eye and gritted her teeth before finally breathing in and out and without any arrogance said, "...Thank you...", and walked off the stage with a slight blush.

Ray nodded his head and left the stage and the rest of the Shrek congratulated him on his win, later on in the matches Ray just watched the matches of the others and as expected, they won all their matches but when it came to Skywater academy something weird happened, they all had red faces when facing Shreks direction, more specifically Ray's direction and he noticed this, he had eye contact with them and they looked like they had hearts in their eyes, 'The fuck! I must be imaging thing...yeah that it!', Ma Hong Jun went on which made the Skywater team have saddened faces this didn't bother Ma Hong Jun and soon enough he beat their team as they were much weaker individually, Ma Hong Jun acted haughty as he was in his 'brother Jun' mode but Ray knocked some sense into him and dragged him off the stage but before he was about to leave the members of the Skywater team came over and said, "E-excuse me Ray but could you accept these!", they were holding baskets each with presents of desserts and such and Ray looked and them and said, "Er...sure! But why?", the vice-captain quickly said, "Hey handsome, you should try mine first! And to answer your question, let's just say we've become fans, admirers, if you will of you!", she had a weird glint in her eye that Ray was getting a bad vibe off, "Oh...", 'Something feels off about this...', Ray thought but he accepted the gifts with a smile and thanked them, "Hey Ray can I get some of those!", "Shut up maybe later!"

Later everyone was in their resting area and were looking at the gift baskets Ray received and said, "Okay, let's just share them out.", this put stars in many of their eyes as the snacks looked expensive and they thanked Ray and began to dig in, Ray picked up a muffin with a gold like wrapping on it from the vice-captain basket and said inwardly, 'Inspect!', a new feature that Ray picked up from Ridley that lets him inspect objects, Ray felt something off about the snacks he received and inspected what was in it but first he wanted to see everyone else's reaction, it was good they were enjoying it but then Ray froze as he read the description of it-

...

[Inspect]

mental lover's muffin-

A muffin made with the intent of making it for the one they are obsessed with all ingredient are top of the range, a muffin with the main ingredient being the bodily fluid like saliva of the baker with the idea that it would make them closer if they ate a part of her, warning maker may be a yandere.

...

Ray looked at the last word and shouted, "Y-YANDERE?!?!", he dropped the muffin and everyone looked at him and Ma Hong Jun said, "Hey why did you shout for and you dropped a perfectly good muffin!", "Uh, Ray are you okay?", "Yeah, you don't look okay?", "Everyone! Stop what your eating! Right now!", he used his teleportation and wind abilities to knock the food out of there hands and put it in the corner of the room, "Hey why did you do that for?!", Ma Hong Jun questioned, "You'll thank me later just don't eat that stuff no matter what, they did stuff to it...", "What do you mean?", Tang san said with a cautious gaze at the baskets, Ray looked at everyone and then mentally said to Tang san, 'T-they p-put their bodily fluid in the food...', Tang san froze and shuddered with a pale face, "W-what?!!", before running to the toilets and puking it all out, Mubai was dumbfounded at this asked, "Is something wrong with this stuff?", he then said the same to him also and eventually did the same to everyone else the girls were disgusted to the core, Ma Hong Jun didn't go and puke it out though, he just cried, but what can you expect from a foody.

Ray went to check the other snacks in the baskets and found out they put some really weird shit in the food like sleeping drugs and aphrodisiacs, 'P-pyschos, what the fuck have I gotten myself into to?!?! Yandere's...and their's eight of em', wait what about Huo Wu, no wait she would be more of a tsundere which is liveable, but back to the main point...I'm fucked! They weren't like this in the original just a bit flirty, then again this is real life...shit...DAMN YOU REALITY!!! HELP ME, UNCLE!!!'

...

HIGHEST REALM OF ALL

...

A man in a white robe with a long white beard looked at what Ray was doing and thought, 'Oh...even I didn't expect this, I'm sorry my boy but the stopped helping you a while ago...NO! As a God I have to help him in some way, I know I'll give him a weapon that he can use in his most dangerous situations, can't let some crazy yandere mess up his adventure, let's see...in his memories he enjoyed a certain weapon from the elder scroll games, now which one though...hmm...ah! this one! I'll get to Hephaestus to make it, maybe it will be better than the original...this is as much as I can interfere with my boy, may it help you in your struggle!'

...

DOULUO DALU

...

Ray was screaming in his mind and then he got a system message, 'Ray you have been given a weapon by a higher being, incoming in the next 12 hours!', '12 hours?! I might not even have 12 hours! Oh, whatever, at least he answered my call, thanks, uncle!', eventually everyone came back but they lost colour in their eyes and Mubai said with rage, "They're fucked up!", "Agreed but they're yandere, they like me, when a yandere likes someone they are doomed Mubai DOOMED!!!!", "Brother Ray, I will help get your revenge, heck we all will! We will protect you through this endeavour!" and everyone nodded their heads, "Thank you, my brothers and sisters!" and then they made sure to block any way for trespassers to get into the rooms as they added things like sleeping drugs for a reason, a kidnapping!
