Xiao Wu: Ge, Brush My Hair (3)

To the side Oscar spotted a clue, lowering his voice, he said shocked:

"No way, little San, you wouldn't..."

Tang San immediately interrupted him,

"Less nonsense, it's not what you think."

This morning he had with great difficulty persuaded Tai Long not to follow.

Tai Long's cultivation speed was clearly inferior to theirs, by now he had just reached the thirty eighth rank, still not the thirty ninth.

Moreover, Tai Long was after all not part of the Shrek Seven Devils. Even though he always followed his grandfather's instructions and considered himself Tang San's bodyguard, Tang San couldn't think of him like that. Even though he had cultivated in this half year and his time with Tai Long wasn't long, he had still given Tai Long some of the cultivation techniques Grandmaster had taught him.

The relationship of the two changed from the previous rivals in love to become ordinary friends.

Of course, it was already impossible for Tai Long to pay attention to Xiao Wu, let alone the change in Tang San's status, even without this he understood that he would perhaps never be able to be Tang San's match.

Xiao Wu also even more wouldn't choose him.

Let alone he, practically every student at the Shrek Academy knew that the only woman in Tang San's eyes was Xiao Wu, and Xiao Wu also wouldn't encourage any other man. There were a lot of female students who had tried to approach Tang San, but been blocked by Xiao Wu.

Even though Tang San knew about this, he never said anything.

The two of them hadn't done anything in front of anyone that would establish a relationship as lovers, but the people at the Academy had long ago already regarded them as such. Only the Shrek Seven Devils knew that Tang San and Xiao Wu's relationship was pure and honest.

Oscar immediately displayed an understanding appearance,

"En, it's not what I think, you needn't explain. Everyone understands."

By now it wasn't just Oscar, but Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and even Zhu Zhuqing all looked at them with strange gazes.

Tang San couldn't help cursing,

"You understand farting."

As these words came out, everyone couldn't help smiling. And Xiao Wu's face became adorably apple red.

"Hai hai, what are you doing?"

Flender said unhappily. At this the Shrek Seven Devils hastily restrained their smiles, straightening their backs.

Flender said:

"We'll set out immediately, our goal is the Sunset Forest. Even though this time there are four of us along, I must announce an important point. Even though the fourth spirit ring doesn't have such an effect of connecting the past and future like the third spirit ring, the fourth spirit ring is still equally important. In order to conduct even better actual combat drills before you join the Spirit Master Grand Competition, me and Grandmaster have decided after discussing it, that for this spirit beast hunting process, you will complete it yourselves. Unless it's an absolute last resort, we won't easily act. Under normal circumstances, not only won't we protect you, we would instead have you carry out the protection. This trip for hunting spirit beasts is also considered the first stage of your graduation exam. And the second stage is the next Advanced Spirit Master Grand Competition. Understood?"

Ma Hongjun was the least afraid of Flender, and couldn't keep from asking:

"Teacher, then how will we pass the test?"

Flender said:

"Good question. Passing actually isn't difficult. For the first test you can rely on your collective power to hunt spirit beasts suitable to you, as long as the four of us haven't acted in the meantime, you will be considered to have passed. And the second stage, as long as you can casually return with the championship, you can also graduate fairly well."

"Ah? This is called 'not difficult'?"

Oscar couldn't help crying out.

Even though they were all rare talents, given the age limit their strength couldn't after all reach the degree of opposing heaven, and what they had to confront was nonetheless the elite of Spirit Masters under twenty five. Destroying the opposition from start to finish and obtaining the championship was no easy matter.

Flender's eyes glinted,

"What? You have any objections, Oscar?"

"No, no objections. Dean is wise."

Oscar knew Flender's character. If he raised any dissent, perhaps this graduation would become even more difficult.

"If you don't that's fine. We're leaving."

Flender issued the order to set out, and a group of eleven people set foot on the avenue heading to Sunset Forest.

Flender's quartet walked in front, and the Shrek Seven Devils followed behind.

Flender also wasn't worried. With Grandmaster, Liu Erlong, and Zhao Wuji all slowly advancing while talking and laughing, such an appearance was more like an excursion.

Dai Mubai brought up the Shrek Seven Devils behind, saying in a low voice:

"I've already obtained my fourth spirit ring, have you all thought properly on what kind of spirit ring you need this time? Since dean Flender's party isn't prepared to help us hunt spirit beasts, we will have to plan it out. According to Grandmaster's calculations, this time the best result would be to obtain spirit rings between three and five thousand years. Of course, the closer to five thousand years, the greater the strength growth rate. My fourth spirit ring was from a roughly over four thousand year spirit beast. But, the closer to five thousand years, the more difficult it will be to absorb the spirit ring. I don't think any of you have forgotten little San's appearance when he absorbed the Man Faced Demon Spider's spirit ring last time. Even though he endured that time, he also suffered enormous pain, not something a weak heart can accomplish. Therefore, you must quickly think of a good goal for yourselves. Under the premise of maximizing benefit, you must still consider what degree you can absorb."

Everyone nodded one after another. Grandmaster's theories were naturally established, but each Spirit Master's own circumstances were different, and the limit of what they could support were actually somewhat disparate. Like Oscar and Ning Rongrong, the limit of spirit rings they could support were clearly a bit lower than the others, they were after all auxiliary system Spirit masters, and their physical conditions were different from Battle Spirit Masters. But for Tang San, who had in succession suffered absorbing the potent amplification of the Man Faced Demon Spider's spirit ring as well as the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and Infernal Precious Apricot's transformation, the resilience of his body was terrifyingly higher than that of Spirit Masters of comparable rank, the target spirit ring ages to absorb would naturally be a bit higher.

Tang San said:

"It would be better like this. Right now we don't know concretely what spirit beasts we'll come across. Once we encounter spirit beasts not reaching the age limit, we'll beat them down until it can't resist, and afterwards we'll carefully determine its age. The one it suits the most will absorb it. If it suits no one, we'll release it. What do you think?"

Tang San was Grandmaster's disciple, and further the soul of the Shrek Seven Devils, these words immediately obtained everyone's approval.

Dai Mubai said:

"Good, we'll do it like that. How to set about it will still follow little San's directions."

Tang San said:

"Little Ao, before we enter the Sunset Forest, first make a batch of flying mushroom sausages for everyone, so if we encounter danger we can evade more easily. At the same time, everyone don't forget the Flying God Claws, those can not only help you navigate difficult terrain, they can also be used to escape and seize spirit beasts. But you must be careful when using them, don't use it easily if the spirit beast is too strong, otherwise you'll rush to help the spirit beast. When encountering a suitable spirit beast I will give priority to restraining its movements with control abilities, afterwards you attack collectively, just don't kill it."

"Oscar, you're not only in charge of supplying everyone, at the same time you must also pay attention to replenishing the spirit beast. If by some chance everyone acts severely, putting the spirit beast on the verge of death, don't be stingy with your big recovery sausages."

"Rongrong, your mission is the simplest, in an encounter directly start assisting everyone with the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. Zhuqing is in charge of scouting, while me, Mubai and Xiao Wu will be mainly in charge of attacking. Everyone clear?"

"Clear."

Although Flender's quartet walked in front, their ears were all along directed at the activity in the back. Now listening to Tang San's deployment, this Shrek Academy dean's face couldn't help revealing a smiling expression, bumping Grandmaster at his side and saying:

"Little San really isn't like a child, his mind is meticulous, and he doesn't panic in new situations. Even learning of his own background didn't influence his cultivation. I heard he even made a profit from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Xiao Gang, how about you give him to me? Or how about having him also take on the role of teacher?"

Grandmaster glanced across at Flender, saying:

"Isn't it enough for you to be his dean? No matter what you say, little San will graduate from the Shrek Academy in the future."

Flender nodded,

"That's so. Frankly, I really hope time would pass a bit faster. Thirty years, eh, no, in maybe twenty years, perhaps this world will belong to these children."

Grandmaster's face showed a rare smile,

"If we directly skipped twenty years, wouldn't you and me already be old?"

Flender snorted,

"You know it! So don't waste time."

While speaking, he pursed his lips in Liu Erlong's direction.

Grandmaster's expression went rigid, once again resuming his original appearance, looking at Flender with a burst of heat. But these feelings were a matter for two people, and even though he was very close to the two of them, he after all couldn't make decisions for others, and there was no way to catch Grandmaster.

He also knew that if he forced things too urgently, there was a chance Grandmaster would go missing again, and that would be even more unbearable for Liu Erlong.

Heaven Dou City was very close to Sunset Forest. This Sunset Forest could also be said to be the place where Spirit Masters from the majority of the heart of the Heaven Dou City's surrounding towns hunted spirit beasts.

Of course, not many people knew about the places like the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well in the core areas.
