The Unlucky Tang San

Xiao Feng endured the waves of intense pain inside his body, his eyes bloodshot, as he exerted all his strength to operate the "Nine Transformations of the Swirling Drago" technique, refining the two waves of wild medicinal power.

As the medicinal power was gradually refined, Xiao Feng's cultivation also rapidly increased, and the imbalance of temperature within his body slowly returned to equilibrium.

When the medicinal power from the two immortal herbs was refined entirely, the spring water from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well could no longer harm Xiao Feng, and his cultivation broke through to the level of a Four-Star Dou Master.

Seeing Xiao Feng slowly open his eyes, Ning Rongrong, who was standing on the shore, anxiously asked, "Brother Feng, are you alright?"

Because Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo were helping, Ning Rongrong and her group found suitable spirit rings in less than an hour.

However, when they returned, they saw Xiao Feng soaking in the spring water of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, his face alternating between pale and flushed. It was a terrifying sight.

If it hadn't been for Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo to assure Ning Rongrong that Xiao Feng wasn't in any life-threatening danger, she would have burst into tears long ago.

"Rongrong, I'm fine, don't worry."

As Xiao Feng finished speaking, he suddenly exerted force under his feet, leaping out of the spring and landing right in front of Ning Rongrong.

Gulp

Looking at Xiao Feng, his wet clothes clinging tightly to his skin, outlining the contours of his muscles, Ning Rongrong couldn't help but swallow nervously.

"Kid Feng, what was that all about just now?"

Sword Douluo couldn't contain his curiosity and asked, "This spring is full of extreme cold and heat toxins. Even Old Bone and I wouldn't dare to touch it easily, yet you managed to stay in there for so long."

"Grandpa Sword, I'm not on your level. I just used a clever trick."

Xiao Feng smiled and explained, "I took two immortal herbs with extreme cold and heat properties and then used the spring water to neutralise the toxins, refining the medicinal power of the herbs."

"I see, you've got guts, kid. And you're lucky to come up with such a method."

Xiao Feng humbly smiled and then turned to Ning Fengzhi, asking, "By the way, Uncle Ning, how did your spirit ring hunt go?"

"Smoothly! It went very smoothly!"

Before Ning Fengzhi could speak, Ning Rongrong excitedly interrupted, "Grandpa Sword helped Dad hunt an eighty-thousand-year-old Thunder Scaled Wolf, and they even got its skull bone!"

"Really? Well, congratulations to Uncle Ning!"

"Just luck, just luck, hahaha..."

Although Ning Fengzhi tried to remain calm, he couldn't suppress the grin that spread across his face.

It was no wonder Ning Fengzhi was so happy. The soul skill attached to the Thunder Scaled Wolf's skull was a potent attack-type skill, comparable in strength to an eighth spirit skill of an Assault-type Spirit Douluo.

With this, even if Ning Fengzhi were caught alone, he wouldn't be as powerless as he used to be.

"And what about you, Rongrong?"

Under Xiao Feng's curious gaze, Ning Rongrong smiled and said, "I absorbed a spirit ring from a 1,700-year-old Phoenix-Tail Crane. My third spirit skill, like my father's, enhances spirit power, boosting the target's spirit power by forty per cent. And now, my spirit power has reached level 35."

"Not bad."

Xiao Feng nodded in satisfaction.

Meanwhile, things were not going so well for Tang San and his group.

The day after Ning Rongrong left Shrek Academy, Oscar, like in the original story, broke through to level 30.

Thus, Flender sent Zhao Wuji to take Tang San and the others to the Star Dou Forest for training.

After finding a suitable third spirit ring for Oscar, Zhao Wuji was ready to take them out of the forest. However, Tang San suddenly revealed that his spirit power had also reached level 30.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Wuji had no choice but to let them stay in the Star Dou Forest for the night, unaware that Xiao Wu's accidental release of her aura would attract the Titan Giant Ape.

Just as the group finally escaped the forest, they were blocked by Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo before they could catch their breath.

The Pope had ordered Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo to capture Tang San.

Once Tang San was brought to Spirit City, the news would spread, and Bibi Dong could lie in wait there, expecting Tang Hao to come to his death.

Though Zhao Wuji tried to stop them, he was no match for Chrysanthemum Douluo, especially after using his Martial Soul Avatar to delay the Titan Giant Ape earlier. Now weakened, he was quickly knocked unconscious by Chrysanthemum Douluo.

With Zhao Wuji defeated, Dai Mubai and the others could only watch helplessly as the two Title Douluo captured both Tang San and Xiao Wu.

…

The next morning,

Whoosh

A black shadow shot down from the sky; wings spread wide as it descended outside Soutuo City.

It was a large bird over six meters long, with a wingspan of more than fifteen meters, covered in cyan feathers.

This massive cyan bird was a Cyan Feather Eagle with over 20,000 years of cultivation.

After absorbing the Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone, Xiao Feng gained the ability to fly. However, the consumption of a 100,000-year spirit skill was immense.

With his current cultivation, Xiao Feng could only fly about a hundred miles before his energy would be exhausted, let alone carrying others.

Thus, Xiao Feng had asked Sword Douluo to help him hunt a 20,000-year-old Cyan Feather Eagle, using its corpse to create a flying corpse puppet.

Xiao Feng had come to Soutuo City this time to complete a projection task and deal with Tang San and Xiao Wu's potential threats.

He first used a disguise technique to alter his appearance before heading to the small village where Shrek Academy was located.

Upon learning from the villagers that Zhao Wuji had taken Oscar and the others to the Star Dou Forest for spirit rings, Xiao Feng temporarily stayed in Soutuo City.

It wasn't until dusk that the Shrek Academy group, led by Zhao Wuji, returned.

The villagers, who had received benefits from Xiao Feng, quickly reported this to him.

When Xiao Feng arrived at Shrek Academy, he saw Dai Mubai and the other Shrek Four running laps around the academy, engaging in self-imposed physical training.

It was clear that they had been deeply affected—whether by encountering the Titan Giant Ape or Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo—giving them a profound sense of weakness in the face of true power.

Desperate to grow stronger, Dai Mubai and the others had no better training methods, so they numbed themselves with running.
