“Both Monkeys withdraw, protect Wishful Disk! Both Sheep hold fast!”
The two Monkey Spirit Masters previously blocked by Tang San’s Blue Silver Grass were already swiftly retreating to their side, now hearing the flirtatious young woman’s orders, they pounced at Zhu Zhuqing without the slightest hesitation.
Mad Xi in his violent struggle had now already fallen down, he wanted to rely on his physical strength to struggle free of Tang San’s Spider Web Restraint, but that corrosive poison constantly coming from the spider web was swiftly eroding his horn layer. His defensive power was admittedly very high, but this didn’t at all mean he was immune to poison. The outermost horn layer had already been corroded, and the more violently he struggled, the tighter the spider web became. Right now it was already gradually deepening.
When the flirtatious young woman saw Tang San in an instant shooting the spider web she was already greatly shocked, although Tang San’s spider web was constituted of Blue Silver Grass, she clearly understood that the opponent’s third spirit ring certainly came from an arachnid spirit beast. But she with a spider spirit confronting this kind of opponent didn’t have any confidence. Right now her goal was very simple, first she had to dissolve the spider web over Mad Xi.
Part 2
“Your opponent is me.”
Tang San’s calm and steady voice echoed next to the flirtatious young woman’s ear, Blue Silver Grass milled out, going straight for entwining her body. He absolutely wouldn’t give Mad Xi the opportunity to recover his fighting strength.
Dai Mubai confronting the Sheep Spirit Master already held the absolute advantage, even though the opponent’s spirit power wasn’t weaker than his, his spirit’s advantage was really too big, before his berserk tiger claw attack, the opponent could only retreat step by step. But neither side had used their third spirit ring, that was a last resort - only for when absolutely necessary, no one would use it lightly.
Different from Dai Mubai’s relaxation, Xiao Wu ran into some trouble. Her opponent was equally a Sheep Spirit Master, and besides clashing with spirit abilities, this Sheep Spirit Master’s second spirit ability was unexpectedly a rare Trampling[ (践踏)]. Even though Trampling didn’t have much range, whenever Xiao Wu was about to get close, he unleashed the Trampling ability, and basically didn’t give Xiao Wu the opportunity to close in. At the same time, after Xiao Wu was shaken by the Trampling ability, she still had to face the opponent’s charge, several times narrowly escaping injury, for the moment she still didn’t dare press the attack. Her Teleportation ability was unexpectedly sealed by a second spirit ring Trampling ability. Although the opponent’s ability could only restrain her for a second, this second still left Xiao Wu largely helpless. To say nothing of the opponent’s spirit power being higher than hers, for the moment, they could still only tangle up each other, neither of them had a method to deal with their opponent.
Zhu Zhuqing’s speed was matchless, under the effect of Ning Rongrong’s Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda, by practically only dodging sideways a few time she had already reached the other side’s Wishful Disk Spirit Master. Right now, those two Monkey Spirit Masters were still a short distance away from her.
The first spirit ability Hell Rush Stab, activated. With the help of her spirit ability, Zhu Zhuqing’s speed redoubled. The sharp claws on her fingertips already extending, directly targeting the opposing Spirit Master’s neck. As long as she could successfully down the opponent, his support capability would disappear and her goal would be achieved.
Blue Silver Grass rushed out frantically, tangling towards the flirtatious young woman.
Facing Tang San’s attack, the flirtatious young woman didn’t dare take any chances. As the linchpins of both sides, they at last collided. The flirtatious young woman’s second spirit ring flared, both simultaneously lifted their heads. This time, she was no longer squirting spider thread from her palms, rather spider silk welled out from her whole body. Although the spider silk was more delicate than Blue Silver Grass, it won out in quantity, forming a protective screen in front of her, able to rigidly block the Blue Silver Grass.
Where the spider silk came into contact with Blue Silver Grass they constantly made a popping sound, that was the confrontation of poison. With a spider spirit, how could the flirtatious young woman’s spirit ability not contain poison?
The flirtatious young woman’s spider silk apparently had an identical development direction as Tang San’s Blue Silver Grass. Spider silk was tough, Blue Silver Grass itself also relied on flexible strength, both sides were deadlocked in midair, nobody able to deal with the opponent. They could only rely on poison to attack each other. In this respect, Blue Silver Grass with the Man Faced Demon Spider’s toxicity clearly held the advantage, the supplemental corrosive poison constantly corroding the spider silk.
Although the flirtatious young woman was inwardly shocked, right now her goal was already attained. As long as she could use this opportunity to release Mad Xi, then, the chance for victory still lay on their side.
At this time, with a pu sound, a flame as thick as an arm passed through a small opening in the Blue Silver Grass, directly bombarding the flirtatious young woman’s woven together spider web. The purple red flame not only directly opened a gap in the spider web, but at the same time adhered to it, quickly spreading to the sides. It was the arrival of Ma Hongjun’s support.
Tang San praised him inwardly, and with a flick of his wrist, again launched a round green light, just right to thread its way through the hole in the opponent’s spider web, going straight for that flirtatious young woman. As long as he was able to restrain the other side’s control system Spirit Master, this fight would lose any suspense.
If the flirtatious young woman didn’t duck quickly, she would have been injured by Ma Hongjun’s Phoenix Fire Wire. Phoenix Fire Wire when Ma Hongjun had already released Bathing Fire Phoenix greatly increased its attack power, its temperature incomparably high. Most terrifying, his Phoenix Fire Wire didn’t just attack in a straight line, but under Ma Hongjun’s control it moved like a long whip of flame, able to destroy her spider web in a few waves.
Seeing Tang San’s attack already arriving, the flirtatious young woman could no longer manage to help Mad Xi, by falling down she managed to avoid Tang San’s Spider Web Restraint.
Spider Web Restraint spread out in the air, how could its five meter diameter range be so easy to escape. At this moment, the third spirit ring over the flirtatious young woman finally flared. On either side of her head, the eight locks of hair extended, enveloped by pink light, becoming eight two meter whips, swinging simultaneously, they unexpectedly halted Tang San’s Spider Web Restraint. Most peculiarly, these pink whips weren’t affected by the adhesive on the spider web, rolling her body, she escaped the covering range of the spider web.
Peng——, the Wishful Disk Spirit Master confronting the agility attack system Zhu Zhuqing basically didn’t stand a chance. Just like control system subdued agility attack system, agility attack system also especially subdued auxiliary system. Zhu Zhuqing’s one hand sliced at the opponent’s neck, the Wishful Disk Spirit Master didn’t even groan, collapsing unconscious to the ground.
But, the moment Zhu Zhuqing appeared before him, he knew he was unable to escape, and also released his third spirit ability. That Wishful Silver Disk discharged a layer of strange silvery light, immediately afterward, at the same time as Zhu Zhuqing hit him, that silvery light already successfully transformed into six parts, and simultaneously infused into the other six members of the team.
And this moment was also just when that flirtatious young woman escaped from Tang San’s Spider Web Restraint.
The silvery light entering them, the Mad Battle Team’s bodies trembled once, the next moment, their eyes unexpectedly simultaneously reddened, their bodies also expanding a full size. Even Mad Xi on the ground still in the Spider Web Restraint, relied on his waist strength to leap up from the ground.
Dai Mub
ai originally already held the complete advantage, but after his opponent was infused with the silvery light, he unexpectedly suddenly became frenzied, not only greatly increasing spirit power, but at the same time both eyes turning deep red, firmly forcing Dai Mubai to retreat, and moreover frantically charging at him.
Xiao Wu’s circumstances were still worse than Dai Mubai’s, that silvery light infusing her opponent more than increasing spirit power and becoming frenzied, at the same time, that Trampling ability’s range also became much greater. Along with the intense shaking, Xiao Wu’s body immediately grew stiff, unable to dodge the opponent’s charge.
In this key moment, team coordination at once showed its effects, a Blue Silver Grass quietly twisted around Xiao Wu’s waist, forcefully pulling back her body, getting her out of the way of the opponent’s attack.
The two Monkey Spirit Masters’ speed suddenly increased, unexpectedly catching up to Zhu Zhuqing and pressuring her. And the flirtatious young woman’s long pink hair in front of Tang San grew longer in a flash, diverting four to directly strike at the Spider Web on Mad Xi’s body, tearing with all their might, adding to Mad Xi using all his strength, that Spider Web Restraint on his body unexpectedly gave way slightly. Although Mad Xi’s body had a large web of scars, as long as he was able to break away from the Spider Web Restraint, then, with him joining the opponents, the situation would immediately change.
The other four locks rapidly extended, whipping straight for Tang San.
Right now Tang San was a bit empty, successively releasing two Spider Web Restraints had already consumed two thirds of his spirit power. Confronting the opponent’s fanatical attack, Blue Silver Grass was already insufficient to obstruct it, helplessly, he had no choice but to use Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track to swiftly withdraw. Fortunately he had Fatty’s Phoenix Fire Wire cover blocking the other side’s attack. Among the seven of the Mad Battle Team, besides the Wishful Disk Spirit Master unconscious on the ground, the majority had already sunk into a kind of special state, apparently only that spider woman Spirit Master still kept her head clear. Although Phoenix Evil Fire was her nemesis, she used Mad Xi’s body as a shield in front of her. Ma Hongjun’s burning Phoenix Fire Wire, although it made Mad Xi bellow repeatedly, was still insufficient to injure him, but Tang San’s Spider Web Restraint was equally affected by the Evil Fire, under the utmost efforts of Mad Xi and the spider woman Spirit Master, the Spider Web Restraint was finally removed.
Originally in a vastly superior position, the situation completely transformed under the Wishful Disk Spirit Master’s spirit ability. A thousand year spirit ring’s ability indeed wasn’t common. What the Shrek Seven Devils didn’t know was that the reason the opponents were called Mad Battle Team was their relationship with the current condition. That Wishful Disk Spirit Master’s third spirit ring ability was obtained from a Fanatic Devil Lizard[ (狂热魔蜥) “Mad Fervent Devil/Magic Lizard”], when used, this thousand year spirit ring’s ability was able to grant a fanatical condition for three minutes.
After gaining the fanatical condition, one would lose the sense of pain, and if one’s mental strength was too weak, one would also simultaneously lose consciousness. In exchange it would boost all attributes by fifty percent. And once gained the auxiliary system spirit ability also lasted independently for one minute. In other words, even if that Wishful Disk Spirit Master was now already unconscious, the effect of his efforts on the Mad Battle Team members would still be sustained for one minute under Fanaticisms own power.
It was also just like this that they could reverse the situation in an instant.
Of course, the Fanaticism ability being this tyrannical, it naturally also had flaws. The flaws were very straightforward: the Fanaticism ability only had a duration of three minutes, and after three minutes the ones affected by the Fanaticism ability would be unable to use or condense spirit power for one double hour. In other words, if they couldn’t defeat the opponent under the effects of Fanaticism, they would die themselves. This was an all-in spirit ability, but its effects were also absolutely beyond the ordinary, capable of reversing Heaven and Earth in a key moment.
Part 3
At this key moment, it displayed Tang San’s importance as a Control System Spirit Master and the soul of the team. He gave up attacking up front. Blue Silver Grass quickly shot out, and following Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, who was being chased by the enemy team’s two monkey Spirit Masters, was pulled back beside Tang San. Who also came back was Dai Mubai, who just got forced away by his opponent. In a short time, he gathered the seven people on his team.
Control System Spirit Masters not only have to control the enemy, they also have to control their own team. What Tang San did showed how well he knew his job.
Surprisingly, Mad Battle Team’s six people with spiked strength did not attack. With a shrill scream, the flirtatious young woman gathered her team up as well.
“Surrender. Or else, even I can’t control what damage we might do.”The flirtatious young lady’s voice was very pleasing, yet her tone was full of helplessness.
Yet the members of the Mad Battle Team beside her were breathing heavily, their surging spirit power fluctuations formed an assaulting pressure.
Dai Mubai coldly shouted: “You want me to surrender? Quit dreaming. Beat us first and then we’ll talk.”
The flirtatious spider woman Spirit Master disdainfully twitched her mouth. “If not for the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda Spirit Master, you think I would waste time talking? If so, I can only say sorry for the damage soon to be caused by us.”
A shrill scream sounded from her again. Fanaticism only lasted for three minutes, so she couldn’t afford to delay any longer. Mad Battle Team already earned seven consecutive wins. If they continued winning, then their income would be incalculable. Even if the enemy had a Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda Spirit Master, they wouldn’t give up.
In the previous spirit battles, the reason Mad Battle Team could repeatedly beat stronger enemies was the support ability Fanaticism. And it was also because of it that their members lost their consciousness and often ended matches with crippled or even dead enemies.
As the commander, Tang San promptly shouted, “Everyone levitate.”
Shrek’s Seven Monsters almost simultaneously ate a peculiar mushroom sausage. As the Mad Battle Team neared, the seven of them suddenly sprouted wings of light and shadow, levitating twenty meters into the air.
The opponent suddenly disappeared, so the members of the Mad Battle team lost their targets. As the only clear minded one, spider woman spirit master turned pale. She never thought her enemies all had the ability to fly.
In the air, Shrek’s Seven Monsters each ate another Recovering Sausage, recovering their spirit power and strength. Tang San didn’t mind the enemies below. Mad Battle Team didn’t have a single flying Spirit Master, and wasn’t adept at long range attacks either. Even the Control System Spirit Master of theirs couldn’t control people over twenty meters away.
“Little San, what do we do now? The mushroom sausage only allows us to fly for one minute. Oscar can only fly for half a minute.” Though Dai Mubai wasn’t afraid, seeing the people with rank thirty five and above all grow even stronger made him feel helpless.
Tang San didn’t panic. “If I guess correctly, the reason their power suddenly increased was because of the thousand year spirit ability that Support System Spirit Master used before he fainted, instantly increasing all their strength. But have you noticed that other than the spider woman Spirit master, all of them have lost their consciousness. According to Teacher’s knowledge of Support System Spirit Masters, this situation won’t last very long, just like Oscar’s mushroom sausages. Also, after the effect, they must have great side effects, or else wouldn’t that Support Type Spirit Master’s spirit be as strong as Rongrong’s Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda?”
Ma Hongjun said: “But what if we fall down and they still haven’t lost their buff?”
Ta
ng San said heavily: “Then we can only bet. Victory is what we want, but everyone’s safety is more important. In their current state, Mad Battle Team is already beyond what we can go against. Little Ao, how many more mushroom sausages can you make?”
Oscar first passed a sausage to Tang San. “I do not have much spirit power left. I gave one to Boss Dai when we were doing two versus two battles. After, I made one for each one of us and this is the ninth one. I can at most make one more.”
“Little San, let me do it.” Dai Mubai already understood Tang San’s meaning. He wanted to rely on the longer flying time to bet that the Fanaticism will run out first, and also bet that Fanaticism would have severe side effects.
Tang San said: “No, let me do it. Right now everyone has used quite a bit of spirit power. In close combat techniques, you aren’t as skilled as I am. Also, I have techniques that can keep me alive, even if their Fanaticism really lasts longer than I expect, I can still leave. Since you let me command, then just listen to me.”
A minute’s time passed quickly, soon the minute was going to end, yet the Fanaticism effect on the members of the Mad Battle Team didn’t look like it was going away anytime soon.
Spider women Spirit Master also calmed down from the starting panic. As a fellow Control System Spirit Master, her real combat experience was plentiful. If only a few people flew up they might have Flying Spirit Masters, but if all seven flew up at the same time, then it could only be a spirit ability. Tang San was betting, but wasn’t she betting that their flying lasted shorter than their Fanaticism as well?
Oscar gave his last mushroom sausage to Tang San and immediately flew off stage. He was almost entirely depleted of spirit power, his face pale. His entire body was feeling the side effects of the emptiness within him. At this time, the three months of devilish training was paying off. Though it felt very painful, he was still very awake, not unlike a normal person. The major side effects of using excessive amounts of spirit power wasn’t showing that much.
