Five Years’ Change (3)

When Tang San, Ning Rongrong, and Ma Hongjun heard this they were, even more, a bit touched. As crown prince, Dai Mubai's position in the Star Luo Empire was extremely important, but he had taken the risk to rush over for this gathering. First let alone the threat from Spirit Hall, as heir to one of the Continent's two great empires, if the Heaven Dou Empire knew he was within their borders, some sort of action would be normal.

The tempering of the future heir to the Star Luo Empire could even be called extremely harsh, before taking the throne, there absolutely wouldn't be anyone dispatched for protection. Only in constant trials and tribulations would there be some growth. Survival of the fittest.

As a result, the Star Luo Empire went from originally holding a third of the Continent's area, to now being equal to the Heaven Dou Empire. Even to the extent that even domestic factional powers had begun to be suppressed.

If not for the intervention of Spirit Hall, perhaps the Star Lou Empire would have already become a completely united great empire by now.

Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing went to make tea for everyone, and Flender hurriedly called everyone to sit.

His office was exceptionally expansive, seating these people wasn't a problem.

Dai Mubai said to Tang San:

"Little San, now tell us how you changed into this appearance. I'm very curious, just how did you become that handsome?"

Ma Hongjun said:

"You all already have whore faces, what do you still want to be more handsome for? If someone wanted to change their appearance, it should be me! The pitiful me has until now still been cut off from others, no one who wants to follow me."

Dai Mubai smiled:

"Didn't you want to pursue Jiang Zhu back then? What? Did she reject you?"

Ma Hongjun's expression was bitter:

"She ignored me after learning my age. Don't tell me being young is wrong?"

Seeing that deliberately assumed appearance as well as the scrunched-up fat on his face, everyone couldn't help laughing out loud.

Grandmaster sat near Tang San,

"Little San. Tell everyone about your experiences. Last time we met in a rush, and I also very much want to know."

Tang San nodded, his experiences in these years certainly had a somewhat fantastical tint. Next, he began to talk about what happened after his father brought him away back then. Even so much that he didn't hide Xiao Wu's identity as well as his own experiences in Slaughter City and afterward returning to the sect.

Listening to Tang San's calm narration, each person's heart had a kind of core shocking feeling.

Separating from Xiao Wu, assiduous tempering, Slaughter City's danger, his mother's fate, returning to the sect and receiving the trial, in a brief five years, Tang San had experienced so much.

Even Dai Mubai who spent all day submerged in power struggles couldn't help gasping in surprise. Whether in terms of facing danger or blows to the heart, all of Tang San's experiences were clearly above his.

Hearing Tang San finish speaking about the process of Blue Silver Grass' second awakening, everyone became completely convinced the youth in front of them was the Thousand Hands Asura from back then.

"...so I've temporarily gained the approval of the sect. Uncle sect master let me return to the sect again after I've reached Spirit Douluo, to pass on the true skills of the Clear Sky Sect. My current main spirit is Blue Silver Grass, it's not suited to cultivating some of the sect's created abilities."

Listening to Tang San's story, the rims of Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing's eyes had both become somewhat red. Whether it was Tang San's life experiences or his helplessly leaving Xiao Wu, both were so moving.

Ning Rongrong had originally felt that she'd already suffered a lot, but compared to Tang San, at least she still had a complete family, as well as a father and relatives that loved her. But Tang San had to carry the responsibilities of his father, had no mother, and his father had also crippled himself. What kind of suffering was that?

After a brief silence, Grandmaster sighed, saying:

"Let the past be the past. Everything must move forwards. If my guess is correct, the three requirements the Clear Sky School elders raised should actually be a test for you. Your gifts should already have won them over. These three conditions test you in three kinds of different abilities. Reaching the eightieth rank before thirty is a test of your perseverance. Killing a Spirit Hall Title Douluo and obtaining a hundred thousand-year spirit ring test your courage and wisdom. It seems that they are paving the road for the future success of the Clear Sky School. If I'm not mistaken, as long as you can complete these three conditions, it will be time for the Clear Sky School to reenter the world."

Tang San was Grandmaster's disciple. What Grandmaster could think of, he had naturally also thought of.

Frankly, he had never had any interest in the position of Clear Sky Schoolmaster. His biggest dream since arriving in this world was to rely on what he had learned to rebuild that Tang Sect.

Taking the Continent's number one sect, the Clear Sky School didn't really suit him. However, for the responsibilities his father had left him, he couldn't shrink back from the Clear Sky School's matters.

Flender laughed out loud, saying:

"Let's not talk about that, why, there's still another ten years. What's impossible for others to accomplish isn't necessarily any kind of difficulty when placed in front of little San. Tell me, what is you little monsters' strength like? And also, that fellow little Ao? Why isn't he here?"

Ning Rongrong's mood had already recovered a lot after the previous release when they met and simply described her events with Oscar. The rims of her eyes reddened once again, but this time she didn't cry.

Zhao Wuji couldn't help saying:

"I really didn't see it before, that little Ao that fellow would be so firm. Leaving without a sound, and his current whereabouts also unknown."

Ning Rongrong hung her head:

"What I fear for is his safety, he's after all only a food system Spirit Master. Even with the hidden weapons third brother handed out, if he really encounters some great danger, I'm afraid..."

Liu Erlong embraced Ning Rongrong's shoulders, letting her lean against her bosom,

"Silly girl, there's no use for you to think about that now. It's already been five years. If danger were to appear, it would have already done so long ago. Since you've decided to wait for him, then you have to have faith in him. It's already been half ten years. In another five years, there will be a result. Perhaps, he will appear in front of you in less than five years."

Ning Rongrong nodded silently, still unable to smooth the expression on her face.

Flender clapped the plump Ma Hongjun next to him,

"Fatty, in your so-called five years of learning through experience, what's your spirit power rank reached? Don't tell me you haven't progressed at all."

Ma Hongjun said aggrieved:

"Originally my progress wasn't small, but compared to these abnormals, it doesn't count for anything. Teacher, right now I'm at fifty-seventh ranked spirit power. That still counts as pretty good."

Flender stared blankly for a moment, pleasant surprise flashing in his eyes. In fact, Ma Hongjun still wasn't twenty years old. Fifty-seventh rank at this age, and moreover with him possessing the top quality spirit, Fire Phoenix, as well as having obtained a flame right arm spirit bone, he had absolutely risen to the rank of celebrity within the young generation.

"And you all?"

Flender looked at the others.

Dai Mubai said:

"I'm about to advance to the sixty-fourth rank. Zhuqing just reached the sixtieth rank and got her sixth spirit ring. Just now I saw that Rongrong's cultivation might be about the same as hers. As for little San, it seems like he's quickly approaching the sixtieth rank."

Tang San nodded,

"Right now I'm at the peak of the fifty-ninth rank, I should be."

Flender, Grandmaster, Liu Erlong, Zhao Wuji; these four great Shrek Academy seniors all looked face to face.

"Abnormals, monsters."

Practically the same words leaped from four mouths.

In fact, the children in front of them were universally around twenty! back then, Spirit Hall's Golden Generation trio was twenty, and their spirit power was also barely more than the fiftieth rank.

But these little monsters in front of them were universally all already dithering around the sixtieth rank. In the Spirit Master world, this could even be said to be unprecedented in history.

Actually, even though the Shrek Seven Devils were good in terms of talent, there was hardly any difference from Spirit Hall's Golden Generation. The reason why they could have their present progress was inextricably linked to the immortal treasure herbs Tang San provided. Those immortal treasure herbs not only made their strength increase substantially but even more importantly gave them a solid foundation, imperceptibly changing their bodies.

Those immortal treasure herbs had all passed Tang San's careful selection, selecting the most suitable herbs for each of them to take.

Only Xiao Wu didn't eat the immortal treasure herbs, and she was a shape changed hundred thousand year spirit beast, her cultivation speed was naturally a lot faster than ordinary Spirit Masters.

It was all these kinds of circumstances that created these little monsters in front of them.

Flender glared at Ma Hongjun,

"You look at the others, all around the sixtieth rank, just you are lacking. You definitely haven't been doing anything decent in these years. Don't sleep and laze around all day. It's lucky your spirit is so good."

Ma Hongjun said with a wronged expression:

"Teacher, it's not that I didn't try hard, but rather that these fellows are too abnormal!"

Grandmaster smiled:

"Fine, Flender, don't cover it up, your heart is actually desperately happy. Even though Fatty's spirit power is somewhat modest, with the power of that Evil Fire Phoenix of his, his strength isn't below little San and the others. You don't have to short-change him."

Liu Erlong suddenly asked Tang San:

"Little San, when are you planning to go find Xiao Wu?"

Tang San said without the slightest hesitation:

"Originally I was planning on going directly to the Star Dou Great Forest. After all, I'm about to reach the sixtieth rank. I planned to first return to the Academy for everyone, and once I leave I'll go directly to search for Xiao Wu. Accompanying her to cultivate in the Star Dou Great Forest, once she's broken through the sixtieth rank, I'll bring her back to see you all."

The expression in Liu Erlong's eyes softened,

"Be good to her. Even if she's a hundred thousand-year spirit beast reincarnated, you also said that after her transformation is complete, she won't be any different from a human. You can't have any notion of discriminating against her, otherwise, I won't be able to forgive you."
