Sword Douluo

Biyun lifted both of her index fingers, her first rings shined as she waved them "Ice Wall!" Two blue flames walls formed over her fingers, shooting forward. The walls went next to Haotian and Meijing and interlaced impacting with Chen Xin.

The flames covered Chen Xin in ice, but it was useless. With a simple move of his arm, the flames were extinguished, the ice shattering all apart without leaving any trace.

However, as he destroyed the flames, he found Meijing and Haotian already next to him, having reached far quicker than what Chen Xin expected.

Meijing was over her Seven Kill Sword, this one shining with a blue light and floating over the air as Meijing seemed to surf with it while her third ring shined "Flying Sword Wing!"

That was Meijing's third skill. It permitted her to mount her sword and take some control of it, being able to ride it to fly with it. It also increased her speed and the sword sharpest, becoming a powerful stab. With that skill, Meijing was finally able to fly, being able to fight against the others of the group.

For Haotian, his third spirit ring shined, wings made of blue flames combined with wind, making it seem like a blue tornado sprouted at his back "3rd Skill: Ice Wings".

Of course, it wasn't his actual third skill, it was the use of the Pure Yin Phoenix and the Golden Roc at the same time. This change increased his speed and power exponentially. He simply made the wings pass as his third spirit ring.

Meijing crashed with Chen Xin while Haotian swung his fiery sword at him.

"Clank!" Under Meijing's and Haotian's shock, both attacks were repealed with two fingers by Chen Xin.

Chen Xin's right fingers stopped Meijing's sword that was unable to move forward while his left fingers completely caught Haotian's sword, blocking it.

"Now!" Haotian shouted towards the sky, Meijing quickly canceling her skill and jumping backward, creating distance with Chen Xin.

Biyun stood over them, flying while she used her second skill Phoenix's Wings. She hadn't waited for even a moment, just as she shot the ice wall, she also charged over Chen Xin.

Normally it would be better for Control spirit masters to keep the distance but this fight wasn't anything of normal, they needed to use their full strength and even reckless moves if they wanted to inflict some damage to Chen Xin.

Biyun plummeted towards Chen Xin, her third ring shining "Ice Hecatomb!"

"BOOOM!" Blue flames exploded over Biyun, attacking Chen Xin.

"It is too reckless to attack near your teammate" Chen Xin adviced. He swung his left hand that kept tightly Haotian's sword, releasing his grip just to throw Haotian in the middle of Biyun's attack. "It could be used as a shield."

The blue flames swallowed Haotian, however, he didn't seem to receive any damage, the flames passing through him like nothing.

"Sorry, but Biyun's flames won't hurt me" Haotian smiled. That was precisely why he stayed next to Chen Xin. For him to lower his guard at the thought of Haotian needing protection against Biyun's attack. However, thanks to Haotian's spirit, Biyun's flames were like his own and didn't dare to burn or freeze him. Of course, that wouldn't be the same for Meijing who needed to go away before the attack hit.

With the potency given by Biyun's flames and the momentum of the explosion, Haotian flapped his wings, charging at an incredible speed towards Chen Xin and thrusting his sword at him.

"Good trick, but this change nothing" Chen Xin shot his right arm forward, trying to catch again Haotian's sword.

Haotian focused his spirit power over his own Seven Kill Sword, fusing the potency of the yin flames with the Golden Roc's wind, the sword acquiring a blue pale color.

"Self-skill: Sky Blizzard!" Haotian thrust his sword, a powerful icy tornado shooting from it.

Chen Xin could feel the strength of the attack, much stronger than Biyun's Ice Hecatomb and deforming the sword form. Knowing that he couldn't catch it, he bent his wrist, his palm facing the attack.

"GRRRRRRR!" The Blizzard roared powerfully hitting Chen Xin's palm. But it didn't matter how much it tried, the strength of a titled douluo was too much for it. The Blizzard disappeared, but unlike the previous attacks, it left a trace. Ice crystals formed over Chen Xin's palm and was connected with Haotian's sword.

"Receive our last attack" Haotian said.

Chen Xin sensed something wrong at his back. He didn't detect it before, but it suddenly appeared, an immense killing intent locked in him.

At less than three meters, Meijing charged towards Chen Xin. After creating distance with him, Meijing hid her killing intent, becoming less noticeable and positioned over Chen Xin's back and charged towards him without wasting a moment.

She already previewed Haotian's attack that could seriously injure her, but she used Chen Xin's as her own shield. If Chen Xin had opted to avoid Haotian's attack, she would have received the full strength of it, but Meijing was sure that Chen Xin would try to catch it.

"Take this!" Meijing's rings shined, her sword became red due to her second skill, increasing its sharpness and strength. Her sword shined with pale light and floated pushing her forward as she run over the ground at an incredible speed.

No. It wasn't pushing or dragging her, Meijing and her sword went at the same speed, both floating and joined like one being. It was like there were no distinction between both.

"One with the Sword" Chen Xin whispered, captivated by Meijing's attack. He was about to spin his body, trying to stop Meijing's attack, but he found himself unable to do as he felt a great resistance.

Fixing better, he found that it wasn't only his palm that had been frozen by Haotian's attack. The attack had joined his hand with Haotian's sword and body that were completely frozen with his face as an exemption and nailed to the ground.

Chen Xin would be able to free from the ice but not in time to stop Meijing's attack.

"Hm!" Chen Xin closed his eyes and hummed, a light smile appearing over his face "You got me".

"BOOOM!" Just as Meijing's attack was about to hit an immense pressure surged from Chen Xin, pushing her, Haotian and Biyun away, cancelling all of their attacks and throwing all of them to the ground unable to even react.

"Tx!" Haotian groaned as he lifted his face looking at Chen Xin, over him a clear blue sword stood floating around.

"Spirit Seven Kill Sword" Chen Xin presented with great pressure.

The sword was similar to Meijing in length, but the aura and strength that exuded was completely different with also the form of them. However, a certain killing aura resided in both swords, while it was different in strength it was kind of similar in form, much different than Haotian's sword that seemed to show such progress yet.

"To force me to use my spirit. You are truly talented" Chen Xin said to the teenagers. He withdrew his spirit, the pressure disappearing and with it, the spar finished.

Then he turned towards Meijing who laid on the ground. She was looking at her hands and sword, seemingly to have realized something in this fight, a big smile over her face.

"Who were your parents, Meijing?" Chen Xin asked.

Meijing looked upwards towards Chen Xin "I have no idea. I was adopted by Haotian's family since I have memory, so I never knew about them."

Chen Xin turned to Haotian who shrugged his shoulders, not having any idea at all.

"You have talent but you lack technique. In the end, you might be really my family" Chen Xin smiled warmly at her "That sword and spirit are certainly ours."

Meijing blinked in surprise "Are you saying that you are my grandfather?"

"More like granduncle" Chen Xin answered "My little brother had a son before dying. He was talented in the sword and a strong spirit master but he fell in love with a normal village girl. In the end, he abandoned his life, preferring to calmly leave with his loved one like normal people. Unfortunately, the last thing that I knew was that their village was destroyed without any survivors. I didn't know that he had a daughter, even less that she survived to the village destruction"

Chen Xin looked at Meijing's red eyes and made a sad smile "I attended their wedding and she had the same eyes as yours.

Meijing didn't know why but she could feel something warm inside her. Unconsciously, even tears started to fall from her eyes "Could you tell me stories about them? About your nephew and his wife." Meijing really wanted to know more about her possible parents. What would had it been living with them? It would have been similar to Nair's maternal love to Haotian or it would be like with the bastards of the Tè Clan.

"I don't really know much about them, but I will explain their wedding. I also had a lot of stories about my little brother. Would you like to listen?"

"Yes!" Meijing nodded with joy.

"It seems that it is better to leave them alone" Fengzhi said turning to Haotian and Biyun "You should be a little tired so let's continue later."

Haotian looked at Meijing's smiling face while talked with Chen Xin and he smiled warmly, happy for Meijing to have some family. He turned to Fengzhi and nodded "Let's leave it for tomorrow."

Fengzhi nodded and left the field, returning to his office.

...

Once Fengzhi was alone at his office, an old man with a skull-like face appeared from his shadow.

At the entrance of the new man, Fengzhi continued fixed in his papers, taking a letter from it that was firmed by his daughter Rongrong and reading it.

"What do you think about them, elder Rong?" Fengzhi said to the man that was in truth the other titled douluo, elder and protector of the clan the Bone Douluo, Gu Rong.

"They are incredibly talented, not only their cultivation speed and spirits are top-notch, their battle sensed and teamwork was impressive" Gu Rong said his opinion "They should have had their share of battles and seeing the sword girl, some battle would have been Life and Death ones."

"Yes. I'm glad that they had decided to join us" Fengzhi said while he was reading the letter "They are much talented than what I initially thought. If nothing happens, they will surely become powerful titled douluo. The only problem is about their fidelity. Would they truly become part of our clan and protect it in the future or would they betray us?"

"Yes. They will become a force to reckon, it would be horrible if they change our clan" Gu Rong agreed. "We should search from a way to keep them with us while never antagonizing them."

"Hm!" Fengzhi finished Rongrong's and made a little laugh.

"What's so funny? What did that She-devil write this time?" Gu Rong asked curiously.

Fengzhi simply answered giving him the letter for him to read.

Over the letter, Rongrong explained the changes in Shrek. That they had come to Heaven Dou City and absorbed the past Blue Lighting Academy, becoming very big. It also explained about Yu Xiaogang's romance, about Rongrong's friends...

At the end of the letter, she complained about the bad treatment by Heaven Dou Imperial Academy and Dugu Bo. Finally, she talked about a very strong boy that had surprised and impresses her. That he was very strong, stronger than Dai Mubai and that he was tall, with good manners... And that his name was Hu Haotian and that they should try to bring him to the clan.

"It seems that the She-devils also agrees with the decision of them joining" Gu Rong laughed "What a coincidence!"

"It might be more than that" Fengzhi said thoughtful "This might be the way to truly bring them to us. Rongrong seems to have a great esteem for him, thinking highly of him. And he truly is the perfect candidate as her partner with such offensive power. If they become a couple, it would be the perfect way to truly join him to the clan." Fengzhi thought

"Of course, it would depend on Rongrong and him, but let's push them a little" Fengzhi made a thoughtful face "When will it be a good time for a meeting?"
